Chapter 132 Sex, Lies, Videotape
Jimmy was interested, "What kind of tape is it, can you show it to the audience?"
Will pulls out a cassette of videotapes and puts them in the player, which shows Scarlett and Rachel walking into the hotel room with a drunken Mark in their arms.
Mark himself was shocked, what he had been suspicious of was finally answered, he had thought it was a spring dream, he thought it was a one-night affair with a * woman, or either Scarlett or Rachel, to test them, and he couldn't get the point, it turned out to be like this, he was stunned all of a sudden.
Will paused the video and said: "The man in it is Mark, his size is 193CM is very recognizable, and the woman is the heroine of several of his movies, Scarlett and Rachel, seeing this, I believe the audience will understand why Mark's movies rarely audition, just say a word." ”
Jimmy said, "Are you implying that Mark is auditioning on the red couch?"
"There is no red couch in his room, but it's obvious," Will said. ”
Jimmy said, "When did this happen?"
Will said: "On the eve of Mark's trip to Las Vegas to shoot "The Hangover" last year, they had a party that night and had a very good time, and Mark asked me to take the surveillance footage away afterwards so as not to fall into the hands of outsiders and cause unnecessary trouble, he is a cautious person." ”
Jimmy said, "What kind of person do you think Mark is?"
Will said: "He is an arbitrary person, he has a strong desire to control and possessive, his relationship with Scarlett and Rachel is not simple, as for what their relationship is, only they are clear, outsiders will not know, but it is certain that Mark is very supportive of them." ”
Jimmy said, "Does Mark have a girlfriend at the time of the video?"
Will said: "He had a long-time girlfriend, Black, who they had known since junior high school, and Scarlett and Rachel claimed to be single at the time, but who knows, maybe it was, maybe it wasn't." ”
Jimmy said: "You are the third person in MM company, Mark trusts you a lot, but you poke his private affairs to the media, will your conscience be disturbed by this?"
Will said: " MM's predecessor was McConaughey Pictures, since the McConaughey era, I have worked for fifteen years, starting from an ordinary employee, to be the director of distribution, it can be said that my career has been dedicated to this company, when Mark acquired McConaughey Pictures, he clearly promised that he would not fire any employee, but when Mark completed the integration of MM and cultivated his own henchmen, we old employees had no use value, and were kicked away by him, my son has leukemia, long-term medical expenses have spent all my savings, I have nothing, my wife also divorced me, I am not friends with Mark, you ask me if I will have a bad conscience, I tell you, noI just want the audience to know his true colors. ”
Mark slapped the table angrily, not because he was turned on by Rachel and Scarlett, but because Will, the villain, a poisonous snake that bites people back, as soon as his report hits the streets, it will bring huge damage to the reputation of the parties involved, and if the unspoken rules between them are confirmed, they will be notorious and will no longer have to mix in Hollywood, which is a fatal blow.
Caroline said: "This is a video sent by the Jimmy Chicken Feather Show crew, and they will air it tomorrow at noon." ”
Mark saw a glimmer of hope and said, "What do they mean? Do they want money? ”
Caroline said: "They don't want money, the show will air on time, what they want to say is that this is just a normal news media report, not against us, giving us time for PR and response." ”
Mark said irritably, "They think I'm not going to pursue them this way, we're going to be hostile!" He paused and said, "How many people else know about this?"
Caroline said, "I passed a copy to Vice President Ellison. ”
Mark said, "Inform Kevin to come to the meeting." As soon as Caroline pushed the door out, Meghan came in, and she apologized first: "I'm sorry, it's all my fault, I didn't handle it well, so there is the current loophole." ”
Mark said angrily: "Of course it's your fault, if you signed a non-disclosure agreement when he left the company that day, I can send him to prison now." ”
Megan said: "I will deal with the aftermath and will definitely solve this matter smoothly." ”
Mark said, "How do you solve it?"
Meghan's ability was questioned, but she was not angry, she said: "Hans, the head of Oracle's Public Relations Department, is a master of crisis public relations, he happens to be in Los Angeles and is coming, Larry has ordered him to use all resources to solve this matter, he will provide a satisfactory solution?"
Mark is skeptical, and Larry's image as a billionaire is not very good, and compared to the two bosses of Microsoft, the gap is huge.
Megan suddenly asked, "You really fly with Scarlett Rachel, this must be very enjoyable." ”
"I was so drunk that I didn't know anything," Mark said. ”
Megan said: "It's a pity, for the sake of friends, don't sue them for the wheel*." ”
Mark slapped his forehead.
Kevin soon came in, and after watching the video, he yelled angrily: "!"
Mark said: "We are now in the same boat, I suspect that the other party is coming for 'Batman', questioning my ability is the first step, and now it is to ruin the image." ”
"Warner is not going to sit idly by and I'll report to Barry right away to see if I can get them to cancel the report," Kevin said. He immediately started calling.
Mark knew that the matter was serious, and immediately called Sophia to report the matter, to see if she knew anyone at the top of Disney, it was best to negotiate and resolve the dispute, even if it cost some money, it would not be a big problem.
Sophia said, "Wait for my call!"
About half an hour later, what Meghan said Hans arrived, and Mark's lawyer, Baker, arrived, and they set up a crisis response team.
Hans analyzed the whole thing and offered a solution, saying: " Just now I asked Miss Ellison to ask Miss McAdams and Miss Scarlett, they helped you in, it was two hours later, it is impossible to put two hours of fixed surveillance video on the TV program, it can only be edited by way, as long as they cut the videotape, we can make a fuss, this is the surveillance in the hotel corridor, this is fixed, the surveillance can be limited to what can be filmed, we can explain it this way, Mark was drunk, Miss McAdams and Miss Johnson helped him back to the room to rest, and then left. ”
Baker said: "Even if the police collect evidence, on the way back to the police station at the scene, if they are touched by other people, the court can judge that the evidence has been contaminated and will not be admissible, so our statement is based on and defensible, the key is that the three people must have the same caliber and the same position." ”
Megan said: "I will coordinate Rachel and Scarlett. ”
Hans said: "We have evidence of Will's corruption, and we can reveal this to the media, a million-dollar embezzler, he can't mix in this business in the future, and no one believes the words of a person with a bad reputation." ”
Mark said: "It's better if Warner or Sophia can get them to withdraw from the show, that's the best outcome." ”
Hans said: "It's unlikely, why did the other party support you in advance, this is a common practice of the media in reporting powerful people, the White House can often get the newspaper that reports them in advance, give them time for public relations, for the sake of sales, they will not compromise, but they also don't want to erect a strong enemy, this approach has another effect, if the suppression force is so great that they will give in, they will give in, but Disney is a hard bone, their Miramax can withstand the pressure of the Bush family and the white officials to release "Fahrenheit 911" , "The Passion of the Christ" overseas distribution has the back of Bowei International, which is profitable, and there is nothing they dare not do. ”
Mark's mind was clouded.
Baker said: "Also, you have to appease your girlfriend Blake, you can't let her talk nonsense to the media, this is your backyard, you can't start a fire."
Mark's head is big, Blake, a hot girl in the United States, is gentle and gentle, but there are also pungent moments, Mark discusses life with her, she often says: "You will always love me, I will give birth to a group of children for you, if you cheat and steal people, I will also cheat and steal people!" How to explain this to her?
Drunk and unconscious? She would probably use the same excuse in return.
It is said that Rachel and Scarlett came by force, and Bi Jing and they are two people, and there are many of them, which doesn't make sense, but he Mark is famous for being able to fight? Mark is very troubled, what should I do.
As Hans expected, Kevin came back with a disillusioned face and said, "Barry can't make the other party change his mind, but you can rest assured that Warner Bros. is ready to fight, and we will not sit idly by and watch you be attacked by them." ”
Sophia brings the result that Mark doesn't want.
"We set up a crisis response team, and Barry knew that he would step in and there would be no problem," Mark said. ”
Sophia said: "Be sure to appease Blake, in Hollywood, the relationship between men and women is casual, as long as you don't get traded by each other, no one can do anything to you? ”
Mark was ashamed, "I'm ashamed of what I did. ”
Sophia said: "This is normal in Hollywood, if you use a magnifying glass to observe the world, there is no good person in this world, you are young and strong, what's the problem with a strong demand in this regard? You can rest assured, David there I will explain it to you." She completely treats Mark as if he were her own son, and there is nothing wrong with her son, who is her own good.
Mark laughed ashamedly twice and said, "Thank you!" before hanging up the phone.
Megan handed a stack of materials to Kevin and said, "This is Will's black information, damn it, we should have called the police directly." ”
Kevin said: "It's too late to say this, who knew he was this kind of person in the first place, you can rest assured, we will definitely make his reputation stink, and no one will believe his words." ”
