“…… After the end of Batman 1, I received a message from Warner, telling me that Batman 2 was about to start filming, and named Mr. Lin to play the role of the Joker......"

“…… Over the course of a few months, I have contacted Mr. Lin many times to discuss this with him......"

Nolan's voice was low, he desperately didn't want to stand here, but he couldn't help it.

For the first time, there was a rift in his heart about Warner, who had made him popular.

Any artist must have had an entanglement with the company, and Lin Xiao's lawsuit is not so much his own lawsuit, but a lawsuit on behalf of all artists.

Spielberg is here, Michael Bay is here, Brad Pitt is here, Tom Cruise is here......

And he was forced by Warner to stand on the opposite side of the employed group of artists in front of so many people.

At worst, his film will find a silent protest from the artist world - refusal!

He spoke in pain with his eyes almost closed.

“…… Starting in July...... I told Mr. Lin about Batman 2...... And I told him that there was a possibility that filming would start......"

"Spoke?" Sotomayor muttered.

"Yes...... Said. Nolan sighed, "My voice recording, has been placed in the machine as evidence. ”

He looked at Lin Xiao's gaze, but found that the other party didn't look at him.

Lin Xiao was very disappointed in his heart now.

He couldn't have imagined that the witness was actually Nolan, and the evidence was the phone calls he had made with Nolan.

A feeling of betrayal rose from his heart.

He didn't want to look at Nolan, although he also knew that Nolan's eyes were definitely looking for his forgiveness now.

At least for now, he didn't want to forgive. Although Nolan also has his difficulties.

"Show the evidence." The black presiding judge said in a deep voice, and then opened the CD under the watchful eye of several bailiffs.

What was recorded on the CD was the content of the phone call between Lin Xiao and Nolan.

“…… Lin, Warner has decided to make Batman 2, and I'm already writing the script......"

“…… Lin, they're already planning to use you as the main character, but the time hasn't been set yet......"

“…… Lin, I don't approve of you playing a clown, European, Asian, crazy looks different......"

The voice of the CD echoed throughout the courtroom.

No one spoke, everyone understood, and Lin finished laughing.

This has set the tone, Warner did say that then, Lin Xiao is definitely not willing to lose the lawsuit, and there are two ways left, one is to settle with Warner out of court, and the other is to delay time with no substantive contract.

Either way, the result is the same.

"Hehe......" Sharon Stone opened the folding fan, and the fragrant wind on his face made Brad Pitt next to him frown, "Yellow-skinned monkey, go back to China, this is not a stupid game that can be played Chinese." ”

"Hey......" Spielberg let out a long sigh, and Michael Bay, who was next to him, shook his head repeatedly, "Warner...... It's really ruthless...... Obviously the result has been decided, but it still gives the other party hope...... Are they trying to swallow even the dawn? ”

"He could go on and on about the ...... of labor disputes," Michael Bay said, shaking his head.

"It doesn't help...... This evidence is conclusive...... Prove that Warner did say it...... Even if he is entangled in labor disputes...... What's the use......"

"Mr. Lin." Sotomayor glanced at Lin Xiao selflessly, "Are the words in the CD true to what you said?" ”

"Mr. Judge! I don't think that's reasonable! Mr. Lin and Warner do not have a paper contract! Oral contracts, without the presence of a third party, there is no legal impartiality! ”

"Invalid." Sotomayor rang the gavel, "Please continue, Mr. Lin." ”

Wells glanced at Lin Xiao defiantly.

Despair, you only have despair now, and under Warner's offensive, you will understand thoroughly that Hollywood is far from being enough for fame.

Lin Xiao was silent, and after a few seconds, he suddenly said, "Yes, Mr. Nolan's words are true, he did say such things to me." ”

"Hehe...... Sharon Stone sneered and fanned the wind, "and now, it's useless to argue." Wait to die, yellow-skinned monkey! ”

Wells laughed wordlessly, in the face of such hard facts, what could Lin Xiao do? Can only crawl at the feet of Warner!

"Lin, going against Warners and joining forces with Sony, this is the worst choice you've ever made in your life......"

"Mr. Lin." Robert walked out with a serious face and an impassioned voice, "Have you finally admitted it?" Have you finally admitted that you broke the contract? ”

"If you don't sign a contract, you don't believe it! Excuse it, you are unwise! You never thought Mr. Nolan would appear as a witness, did you? The United States is a contract country, and no one will play with contracts! ”

He propped up Lin Xiao's table with both hands, and looked at him coldly, "Mr. Lin, as a world artist, you signed a contract but did not execute!" Where do you address investors? Where do you write to the director? Where do you address those viewers who are waiting to see Batman 2? ”

"How is Warner going to explain to the thousands of people waiting for Batman 2? How do you explain the investments of the parties that have already raised $150 million? ”

"You're playing with Hollywood! However, you would never have thought that Hollywood still has a righteous defender like Mr. Nolan! ”

Nolan gritted his teeth fiercely, Warner is letting him attract hatred, and by the way, he will also be tied to Warner's chariot, so that other artists will be hostile to him, and he will only have Warner's artists to find!

"Such an artist who is dishonest and does not follow his artistic virtues! What qualifies to stay in Hollywood? What qualifications do you have to take on your films! ”

"You still seem to have overlooked one thing." Lin Xiao and Carlo exchanged glances and stood up solemnly.

It was his last card, but he had to open it first.

This lawsuit can't be dragged on!

"Warners didn't settle my pay! Why should I help him shoot a second part! ”

Wells sneered, and still wanted to attribute it to the labor dispute, whether it was good, the longer it dragged on, the more beneficial it would be for them.

"Lin, why do you make such an ugly gesture......" Robert laughed.

"Defender, watch out for your words, personal attacks, warnings once." Sotomayor said lightly.

Robert bowed gracefully, "Oh, sorry, that's just what I thought, any artist, giving up hundreds of millions of dollars for a mere $100,000, I don't think he's capable of making any other films." ”

Lin Xiao raised his hand.

He had never felt that his hand was so heavy.

This hand pressed everything on him.

"Mr. Lin, please speak."

"I apply and conduct a labor investigation."

"Huh?" Wells was stunned for a moment, and Robert was stunned as well.

"According to the criminal law! When one party believes that the other party has a bad record of arrears in labor disputes, it can apply for a labor investigation! ”

"Without proving that Warner is not in arrears to me, I applied for a labor investigation on 'Pirates of the Caribbean 2' that was being filmed! Review its labor contract! ”

"Z!" Everyone gasped.

Spielberg's whole expression froze, Michael Bay clutched the armrest in front of him tightly, and almost stood up, Nolan's eyes widened, looking at Lin Xiao in disbelief, even Sotomayor and the presiding judge were stunned in place, and they forgot to knock on the gavel in their hands.

This sentence, like a storm, quickly swept the entire courtroom!

The reporter in the back row, after a moment of silence, actually exclaimed!

"Labor investigation! He has always treated this matter as a labor dispute! It turned out to be for the purpose of conducting a labor investigation! "Ruthless! It's so ruthless! I thought Warner was ruthless! I didn't expect Lin to be more ruthless! "Wonderful! This time, it will be difficult to distinguish between victory and defeat! ”

The sound of "click" taking pictures suddenly rang out, and the situation changed in an instant, which made them completely excited! Forget the rules of the court in an instant!

"Silence!" Sotomayor forcibly suppressed the shock in his heart, knocked on the gavel, looked at Lin Xiao with an extremely complicated gaze and asked, "Labor investigation, in the film and television industry, you can intervene in any film to apply for investigation, and at that time, this film award will be stopped and investigated." Mr. Lin, is that what you mean? ”

Everyone knows this truth, and because of this, all the talents are shocked.

No one expected that Lin Xiao had been positioning this matter on labor disputes from the beginning, and he would keep this hand!

Once this is done, Warner Empire's film and television department will be scrapped! Once the big investment starts shooting, Lin Xiao can apply to enter the investigation!

Now, he's applying for an investigation into Pirates of the Caribbean 2! Movies with an investment of hundreds of millions!

And then? Harry potter? Batman?

Is Warner still going to shoot?!

"Against, against !!" A scream of exclamation erupted from Wells' mouth.

He stood up, his gray hair standing on end, and the lifeless flesh on his face trembled.

This time, like a poisonous snake, it bit Warner's seven inches!

It only takes a few games like this to bring Warner Bros. to a complete halt! At the same time, the reproach from the parent company, Time Warner, will immediately befall their heads!

"Why are you conducting a labor investigation?! Why! He has completely lost his composure, this time it is too ruthless, enough to make the situation ambiguous in an instant, and Warner Bros., as a film and television distribution company, is most afraid of accepting this kind of investigation!

He stood up all over, his voice was not as calm as just now, nor was he provocative, but his eyes were red, staring at Lin Xiao deadly, "This kind of investigation!" Impossible! Warner refuses to investigate! ”

"Just because you still owe me $100,000!" Lin Xiao's voice was loud, and at this moment, he also broke out, looking at Wells without showing weakness, "Progress to investigate, it's not up to you to decide!" From the very beginning, I appealed a labor dispute! ”

Robert almost bit his tongue.

This rule is very small, and there is no precedent for using it in the film and television industry, and it does not directly talk about the film and television industry at all, but now it is mentioned!

No matter how small, it's justice!

"He was able to come up with such a solution!" He looked at Lin Xiao dumbfounded, and an extreme sense of crisis welled up in his heart.

If it goes on like this, it really becomes Warner dragging with Lin Xiao! Let's see who drags down who first!

Yes, Warner will definitely be able to drag Dawn down, but, who would dare to invest in their films during this time?! The effect of this is definitely not as simple as 1+1! Even if Warner wins, it will have to pay a considerable price!

Most importantly, does Warner think Daybreak is worth Warner's reputation?! Is it worth the money?

Once Warner's top management retreats first, it will be immediately defeated! Moreover, the initiative to drag on now is no longer in their hands!

"Unbelievable!!" Jury, Spielberg's eyes were already wide in shock!
