Chapter 111: The Quietly Popular "Nutrient Solution"
On the plane to San Francisco, Lan Jiawei dialed Neil's encrypted mobile phone, "Nier, we found out that Anthony has been very wrong recently, asking for additional investment in the movie, and is also in close contact with our consortium's nemesis, the Texas Consortium, what did you find?" ”
"JAVY, how do you know I have time now? In fact, the whole film has been filmed in New Zealand, all the shots have been completed, the last time Zhu Qing came, Anthony deliberately supported all of us, and met her alone, I thought it was a matter of post-production for the promotion of the film, this person is really wrong recently, he seems to like gambling, and often goes to Las Vegas"
"Okay, you can go back to the farm if you're fine, or go to my Los Angeles villa to stay, my butler service phone number will be emailed to you, and I will inform them to give you the key"
"Oh yes, I want to play in Los Angeles for a while, hmm......"
"Is there no money? I'll transfer you some money later", Lan Jiawei was born with a good impression of this blonde "Audrey Hepburn", even if he raised her, he was willing.
"Hehe, yes, I signed a contract with you anyway, and you should raise me."
Shaking his head with a smile, Lan Jiawei became happy, "It's okay to continue to inquire about that guy, I'm going to let him know the fate of the betrayal"
"Well, it's a really annoying guy, I don't know if it's because of more money or what, my polite appearance before is gone, and he will harass me from time to time"
"Really? What a scum", after hanging up the phone, Lan Jiawei added: "A good cabbage can't let your pig arch it."
After arriving in San Francisco, Lan Jiawei directly took out the bulletproof sports car and drove to Merlin's manor, which was agreed by the two.
After meeting with Merlin, Lan Jiawei first handed the diluted Moon Spring water to the other party: "This is a nutrient solution developed by me, even the British prince knows about it."
Merlin smiled and patted Lan Jiawei's shoulder, "Many people know, but everyone just thinks that it may be difficult to deploy, so they don't ask you for it."
As an American, Merlin attaches great importance to the protection of private property, as for Lan Jiawei, he doesn't take the initiative to give himself the nutrient solution, and he feels that it is normal, and he is very happy to get it now, which shows that the other party regards him as a friend, "The trip to Europe went well, right?" ”
Lan Jiawei said a rough account of what happened this time, but he skipped the matter of Renee.
Merlin had already drunk the drink in the small bottle, "Congratulations, Marquis Javy Blue, you have truly entered the ranks of the nobility, but your technology has indeed given new hope to many resource-poor countries, which is remarkable"
"It takes 2 to 3 months for the nutrient solution to be fully effective. Merlin, my film director Anthony has a problem," said Mr. Lan in a more serious tone.
"Oh? The same Anthony who won two Oscars for his films? What went wrong? ”
After Lan Jiawei explained the matter, "Greedy ink is a big deal, but I care more about his dealings with the Texas consortium, this is a betrayal of me and the consortium, how is the recent business war with Texas?" ”
Merlin's face turned cold after hearing this, "This kind of thing of a dog biting the owner is a very taboo thing within the consortium, and if you find it together, you must deal with it thoroughly, otherwise how can the consortium unite as one?" You can rest assured that you will take measures, and the consortium will cooperate. Sandy, the leader of the Texas consortium, has been busy dealing with internal rebellions for some time, and some dissidents who tried to remove him from power have either been assassinated or have fled far away, and your information can confirm that he is basically in control of the situation, and the battle between our two sides will begin again."
"Ignorant of current affairs, I am stepping up the development of small nuclear fusion engine technology, and strive to complete it as soon as possible, so that we will continue to lead the trend of the world, and this kind of sand will eventually be washed away", Lan Jiawei pouted disdainfully.
"Oh? How much time do you think it will take to use this technique? Merlin asked with great interest
"The first ones will be larger, and there will be no problem with ships, trains, and even space shuttles, which is estimated to be within 2 years; The volume requirements of the automobile engine are too strict, and it is estimated that it will take at least 5~7 years."
"JAVY, it's already very good, nuclear fusion, it's a continuous engine, I know the most basic concept, deuterium extracted from seawater, hydrogen and sodium factor next to the plant, didn't we build a new plant to extract this thing? Such good energy will make us rich, not to mention 7 years, 10 years are worth the wait"
After leaving Merlin, Lan Jiawei lived in his own manor, and met with his father-in-law, mother-in-law and brother-in-law in 2 days, and talked about the recent situation as a chat. Zong Sheng also gritted his teeth with hatred for Anthony's matter, and suggested that Lan Jiawei deal with it as soon as possible to save him a lot of long nights.
Why didn't he stop his wife Chiyo from making a payment, just to give Antony one more incriminating evidence. On the third day, after making an appointment with President Greens and sorting out and printing out all the materials, Lan Jiawei flew directly to Washington.
After arriving, Lan Jiawei first went to the White House to meet with Greens, and after meeting, Greens hugged the old friend very warmly, "Sit down, Jiawei, and only in front of you old friends will I be more relaxed"
Glancing at Grims with a smile, "Have you been busy lately?" Grimes, you're a lot haggard, I'm about to send you something good."
He shook his head with a wry smile: "Jiawei, it's not that you don't know the national conditions of this country, especially recently, those radical organizations in the Middle East are constantly jumping like fleas, and they can't kill them at once, so it's a little annoying." Oh, you're not talking about the kind of nutrient solution you give your actors to drink, are you? I've been thinking about it for a long time, and I've been embarrassed to ask you."
"That's it, you must know that I went to the UK this time, and the princes of the royal family have asked me, I think I can't treat my old friends badly, so I specially sent it to you", Lan Jiawei took out the small bottle in his bag.
Grims is an old friend, and the meeting with him is in his study, and there are no outsiders, so there is no such thing as an agent rushing out to check the bottle in the movie.
"Wow, I've heard more than one person say this, Hathaway is almost as young now as she was when she first appeared in the movie, and many people asked me to find you, but I refused", after saying that, he was not polite, opened the bottle and couldn't wait to drink it.
"Greens, this process of absorption and action is 2 to 3 months, you don't have to worry, and it is related to the age group, Hathaway is because she is already young, and you can return to the way you looked a few years ago"
"This is already remarkable, thank you so much, JAVY, is it difficult for you to make this?"
"Well, I can make up to 10 bottles a year, and you and Merlin's are all the ones I saved last year, oh, the effect won't decrease, don't worry"
"Is it so hard? It seems that only the circle of friends can use it, and everyone else will forget it", Grims also understood Lan Jiawei, and said that he only gave himself a bottle when he was his friend, which was already very face-saving.
"Greens, I'm also going to the FBI to report the crime in Washington this time," and then Lan Jiawei told Anthony about it.
"This kind of person is not worthy of sympathy, you will go directly to the FBI, and you are still their own person, I will also inform their director to pay attention to this matter, and the dog will be disgusted wherever the owner bites", Greens has no words at all about helping his friends in such a trivial matter.
Lan Jiawei found Bob after arriving at the FBI headquarters and registered the case under his leadership, because he was considered an internal person, for this kind of crime with a large amount of greedy ink, it belongs to the scope of the FBI's detection, and Lan Jiawei once brought great honor to the FBI, and soon set up a task force under the personal chairmanship of the director, and launched an investigation based on the information provided by Lan Jiawei.
When he returned to the farm, Anthony didn't seem to feel good, and hurriedly sent a copy of the movie, but he still didn't give Lan Jiawei an explanation.
2 weeks later, when the FBI confirmed that he was preparing to arrest him, Lan Jiawei rushed to Los Angeles with his wife and Zhu Qing, gathered the crew members of the backbone of the film company, and held a briefing meeting.
After the crew members left, the company's directors and key personnel held a meeting to discuss the possible impact of the incident, and prepared several sets of coping plans.
Lan Jiawei joined his wife and Zhu Qing and Nier, who had been here, and lived together in a villa by the sea, and Ash quickly finished synthesizing the film, but considering the outside world, he was still ready to wait until a month later to come out with a sample.
After Anthony was arrested, the news was quickly spread, and the major media and the public were in an uproar.
There will be inextricable clues about this kind of thing, and it can't help but be seriously investigated, from bank accounts to various expenses, in the United States, a country with a very sound system, it is like lice on the top of a bald man's head are so clear at a glance. The FBI has formally arrested Anthony and will prosecute him, so the boring media and the American public are excited to follow all kinds of news about this matter.
