Chapter 120: Sticks and Carrots
"Then let's find a quiet place to talk about it. Sid beckoned, then turned and walked over to the outdoor fireplace outside the party, where Jamie and Lynn looked at each other for a moment, then followed.
A few people came to a balcony facing downtown Los Angeles, and although the scenery of Britney's villa is not as good as Sid's "Sunset Villa", it is already one of the best views in the Hollywood Hills.
After seeing Sid leading people over, several young men and women who had been staying here immediately left with interest. Sid sat down first, followed by Jamie and Lynn, who also sat opposite Sid.
But Sid did not speak immediately, but slowly looked at the opposite couple with interested eyes, and this scrutinizing gaze soon made them a little restless, but they did not dare to object or get up to leave.
Actually, about Britney and Sid's lover relationship, Jamie and Lynn still know about it.
After all, two years ago, Sid kicked out Britney's former manager Larry Rudolph with thunder, and then transferred Britney to the Endeavour Elite, as well as the acquisition of Jive Records, etc., for Britney's family, it was tantamount to a big earthquake.
In order to appease her parents, Britney also had to brief them about their relationship.
Although in the past two years, as Britney's fame has grown and her income has become higher and higher, they also have the feeling that one person has ascended to heaven, but when facing Sid, a monster-level guy, any Hollywood genius can only be dwarfed.
By the time Britney Spears set a billion-dollar record, Sid had already created a conglomerate that DreamWorks could not even hope for, and became a Hollywood upstart with billions of valuations.
Jamie and Lynne also rarely spend time alone with Sid, as Sid rarely gives them a good look even when he meets them. So Jamie and Lynn have always had a cautious nervousness about Sid.
Just when the two of them thought that today's conversation was going to end without a problem, Sid finally spoke: "Do you two usually watch reality shows?"
Although she didn't quite understand what Sid meant, Britney's mother, Lynne, nodded quickly, "Yes, Mr. Leon, when we are usually fine, we watch reality TV shows to pass the time." ”
"Yes, I like your TV show Survivor the most. Dad Jamie also complimented him with a dry smile.
Then Sid changed his words, "Now that Britney is living on her own, I don't want her to be disturbed unnecessarily. ”
Talking about interference, Sid's eyes looked directly at Jamie and Lynn, and while Jamie was still thinking about what Sid meant, the quick-witted Lynn immediately understood what Sid meant - Sid didn't want them to be okay, so he ran to harass Britney.
"Mr. Leon, but we ......" Lynn wanted to refute, after all, their husband and wife cultivated Britney back and forth, just so that she could enjoy glory and wealth after she became famous.
Now Sid forbids them to knock on their daughter's bamboo pole again, so how will they live?!
"Britney is an independent woman now, so her property, her life, will be, and can only be decided by herself, understand?" Sid said as he propped up slightly, staring sharply at Jamie and Lynn across from her.
At this moment, even the "unresponsive" Jamie finally reacted, and he immediately blushed, but the foul language that he originally wanted to blurt out immediately disintegrated when he saw Sid's eyes, and finally he could only hold back a sentence aggrievedly, "Then what about Britney's sister Jamie......"
Sid curled the corners of his mouth slightly, and said again, "What I'm saying is that you can't go to Britney. ”
Sid's reiteration finally made Lynne react, she jerked her husband's arm, and then said to Sid with a smile: "No problem, Mr. Leon, we will not interfere with Britney in any more matters. ”
"Good. Sid finally showed his first smile of the day, which couldn't help but make Jamie and Lynn on the other side secretly relieved.
Then Sid continued, "But like Thanksgiving, Christmas, Britney's brother and sister's birthday, I hope it's still amiable, warm and happy." After all, Britney is still a gentle and family-loving girl. ”
"Absolutely. Lynn said yes again, and then she said with a flattering smile, "Mr. Leon, you really spoil our family Jenny (Britney's middle name), and it's a blessing that Jenny can find you as her boyfriend." ”
Sid smiled faintly, and then said, "Since you like to watch reality shows so much, I wonder if you are interested in making a reality show?"
Sid's words immediately made Jamie and Lynn on the other side breathe, and the reality show, as the signature of Fire Lion TV, has long been the most watched non-drama program in the whole of North America. Not to mention anything else, Fire Lion's first reality show "Survivor" is said to have reached $500 million in sales in the first year!
Even if it can't be as successful as "Survivor", as long as you can produce a successful reality show, then a good life of fame and fortune is definitely in front of you.
Jamie and Lynn almost drooled when they thought of this.
Sid smiled and snapped his fingers before waking them up to the real world.
Sure enough, the best way to deal with greedy little people like them is to give them sweet bait in addition to threatening. In this way, they will understand that if they listen to Sid, they will have fish to eat, and if they do not obey, they will have to suffer.
And, when they really set foot in that glamorous Vanity Fair, will they be willing to leave? When the time comes, they will be better behaved than their grandsons without Sid saying more.
"Of course it's interested, we're definitely interested. Jamie and Lynn said in unison.
"Very well, this is the phone number of the reality show director of Fire Lion TV, you can call him later, I have already told them about the situation. Sid took a business card out of his pocket, and Jamie immediately took the business card from Sid with both respectful hands.
"Also, you haven't actually made a reality show after all, so although I will give you two producer titles, you still have to learn how to make a reality show from the producer team of Fire Lion first, understand?" Sid said.
"We understand, Mr. Leon. Jamie saw that a good life was along the line, and no matter what Sid said, he couldn't keep up and nodded his head in agreement.
