No one likes a debt collector, especially if you're penniless.

Looking at the man who came in, Victor was in the mood to jump off the building at this time.

Originally, I finally got back a movie theater that originally belonged to me from the Bernarno family, and I thought that I could do something with this movie theater, but I didn't expect that this movie theater was not only crowded, but also owed a lot of debt.

What's even more infuriating is that the creditor is still 20th Century Fox.

"Mr. Zanuk, shouldn't the deadline be tomorrow?" Sean looked at the man who came in, his face pale.

The man was in the prime of life, dressed in a well-fashioned striped suit, with meticulously combed hair, a French mustache, a hooked nose, and a sharp, direct gaze.

Zanuk? The name made Victor's heart flutter.

"Darryl Zanuk?" Victor asked Sean in a low voice.

Sean nodded.

Ran into another troublesome guy. Victor said darkly.

20th Century Fox was founded in 1935 by the merger of 20th Century Film and Fox Film, the former ate the latter, and it was a typical mouse eating an elephant, and it was the Darrell Zanuk in front of him who completed this great feat.

20th Century Fox has two owners, this is a well-known thing, in fact, compared to Fox's dedication to expanding the cinema chain, Darryl Zanuk is the real soul, it is the movie tycoon who is keen to make blockbusters, it is the movie tycoon who is keen to make blockbusters, and he has unearthed a group of movie stars who have influenced Hollywood and even the entire Shijie movie.

Founded in 1932, 20th Century Films had a complex founder, including Joseph Zink, former president of United Arts, William Gertz and Raymond Griffith of Fox Films, and Darryl Zanuk, a former Warner Bros. producer. Zanuk is a natural businessman, and he is a businessman with a sensitive sense of smell for the development of films, he understands the psychology of the audience, understands the laws of the film market, and understands the art of film, so under his leadership, the 20th century film company rose rapidly in just a few years, and finally killed the old Fox.

In a word, this is a more difficult man than William Fox.

"Is it tomorrow?" Zanuk sat down, lit a cigarette, looked at Sean with interest, and smiled: "My dear Sean, is there any difference between today and tomorrow, can you scrape together 180,000 dollars in one day?" ”

Sean bent over, almost pleading: "Mr. Zanuk, you give me a little more leniency, I'm selling my house, and when it's done......"

Zanuk shook his head: "Sean, stop, your house is older than you, and no one asks for 20,000 dollars." Besides, you are old, there is no need to put your only residence on it, and it would be nice to give me this movie theater, and I can also give you a pension fee, if you don't want it, you can continue to stay here and help me take care of it, how good. ”

Sean shook his head resolutely: "Mr. Zanuk, this is something that Mr. Ferro handed over to me, this is the property of the Ferro family, I can't give it up!" Mr. Zanuk, I beg you, give me some more time, and I will surely raise money!" I promise! Besides, you already have nearly 1,000 movie theaters, so it doesn't matter if you don't have one. ”

"It doesn't matter?" Zanuk shook his head: "No, no, no, Sean, who will have trouble with money?" Although there are many theaters in 20th Century Fox, there is a lack of leaders, to tell you the truth, I have always made up my mind about this theater, the location is good, the area is large, and when I renovate it, our company will have the first cinema. Got it? ”

Sure enough, it was deliberate.

"Mr. Zanuk's methods are truly worthy of his name." Victor laughed.

"Who is this?" Zanuk glanced at Victor.

Sean hurriedly introduced: "This is my boss." ”

"Victor Ferro." Victor held out his hand to Zanuk.

"You're that Victor Ferro?" Zanuk had a look of surprise on his face.

Victor was a little puzzled: "Oh, Mr. Zanuk knows me? ”

Zanuk quickly regained his original expression and said, "William submitted a script to the board of directors today, did you write it?" ”

"Write whatever you want, but Mr. Fox doesn't seem to be eye-catching." There was a hint of sarcasm in Victor's words.

Zanuk Hahadaxiao: "That's his usual style. Victor, to tell you the truth, the script, very good. ”

Victor: "Oh, in that case, Mr. Fawkes......"

Zanuk shrugged: "Even though we are a company, I rarely ask about William's doing things. I'm not like him, I like talented filmmakers, and the script is really good. Let me remind you, young man, you have a bit of talent in movies, don't underestimate yourself. As for William, you have to remember that you have to protect yourself at all times. ”

Zanuk's words, but there is something to say.

It seems that history is rumored to be that Zanuk and Fox are at odds, and it is true.

"Okay, let's not talk about it. Since you are the current boss, then, hurry up and complete the transfer procedures, I am very busy. Zanuk pulled a document out of his handbag.

Victor is extremely aggrieved, your mother, you have to let me sign twice a day!

"Mr. Zanuk, this cinema is the property of the Ferro family, and I will not transfer it." Victor's attitude was resolute.

Zanuk looked at Victor with a smile: "Young man, let me remind you, you owe me $180,000 now, and Sean has signed a contract with me before this, if you can't pay when due, the movie theater will be mine." It's not something you say you don't transfer if you don't transfer. Unless, you pay me back. ”

"I don't have any money." Victor flipped through his pockets.

Zanuk Hahadaxiao: "Are you going to play a scoundrel with me?" What else do you say if you don't have money? ”

Victor pulled up a chair and sat down, looking at Zanuk.

Damn, let's take a big gamble! For my cinema!

"Mr. Zanuk, I don't have any money right now, but I have a story, I have a good story! A good story worth well over $180,000. Victor sat up straight.

hahahaha。 Zanuk burst into tears and laughed: "Mr. Ferro, are you kidding me, if I want to hear a good story, go."

You can have fun in any circus outside, a story of 180,000, haha, this is the funniest joke I heard today! ”

Victor didn't laugh, but looked at Zanuk calmly until he finished laughing, and then said, "Mr. Zanuk, I heard that what you are most worried about at the moment is a good script for a movie that doesn't make money?" ”

"You're talking about a movie story?" Zanuk's face immediately retracted its original banter.

"Uh-huh." A smile appeared at the corner of Victor's mouth.

It seems that there is a door!
