According to Rose estimates, the comedy "Arabian Nights," which invested more than $100,000, could bring at least $5.6 million to William Films. Hughes as an investor will also get several times the returns.

Rose took the opportunity to introduce several newcomers who participated in the performance to Situ Nan: "These are the potential newcomers of the company, Joan. Miss Crawford, Clark. Mr. Gable, and Catherine. Miss Hepburn! ”

"This is Mr. William, the shareholder of the company!"

"Mr. William!"

……

When the three of them saw Situ Nan for the first time, they learned that Situ Nan was their boss and their attitude was very respectful, and they hurriedly said hello.

I don't know how to get around, the story of the falling out between the owner of William Film Company and the famous filmmaker Griffith has always been very marketable in Hollywood. Crawford, Clark. Gable, Catherine. Hepburn had heard about this rumor after he entered William Films.

Griffith threw himself into the arms of United States Films, complaining about the injustice he received at William Films, but almost no one could find the mysterious Mr. William.

They were all surprised by Situ Nan's age, and it turned out that he was the legendary hot-tempered but mysterious boss!

Especially Joan. Crawford, a pair of beautiful eyes stared at Situ Nan, and did not hide the rippling autumn waves in his eyes.

Rose frowned slightly, thinking: This sassy woman is really bold, but unfortunately she is destined to do useless work, Situ Nan is not something she can get! So he pretended not to see anything.

No matter how closed Situ Nan was, he knew that the three in front of him were big stars in the golden age of Hollywood, and thought: With these three, William Film Company has picked them up!

History of the future. It is very likely that people do not know themselves as the emperor of commerce. But definitely remember the three stars in front of you!

Especially Catherine. Hepburn. One of Hollywood's two famous Hepburns, a twelve-time Oscar nomination and a four-time Oscar winner for Best Actress, in terms of acting skills and achievements, Catherine . Hepburn is a step stronger than the later Hepburn princess, and it can be said that there is no one who has never come before!

Situ Nan ignored Joan. Crawford, but to Catherine, who is neither humble nor arrogant. Hepburn was a little more interested and spoke a few more words to her.

From time to time, his eyes also looked at Howard. Hughes. I happened to run into Howard. Hughes's eyes kept on Catherine. Hepburn, see Stuart South looking at Catherine. Hepburn, Howard. Hughes looked at Situ Nan's gaze and was a little nervous.

Stuart South and Catherine. When Hepburn spoke, he wasted no time in interjecting two sentences.

Situ Nan didn't stay long, and left after saying hello.

Before leaving, he was still with Joseph, who had arrived from the east. Kennedy said hello and agreed with Kennedy to meet on a date.

"This movie is good and should be very popular with the market! I've got to get it! Kennedy told Rose directly that if he brought in the film, the movie theater he ran on the East Coast would sell for a lot of money.

He also had ties to film dealers around Chicago. Maybe you can also sell the film to the Great Lakes region and make a fortune from it.

"No problem."

Rose agreed. As the distributor of the film, William Film also has the largest theater chain in the United States, mainly distributed in several major cities on the West and East Coast, but it is impossible to account for the entire film market in the United States, so the more powerful filmmakers like Kennedy can work with to tap the full potential of this blockbuster film.

Catherine. Hepburn, of course, knew that Situ Nan was interested in her, but not because of herself, but because of her friend Kuzdova, who recommended herself to Hollywood!

Looking at Howard like the stars holding the moon. Hughes and Clark. Gable, she was a little envious, but unfortunately she only played a role with few scenes, unlike Clark. Gable was red all of a sudden!

and not like Joan. Crawford's sassy woman looked around the men, Catherine. Hepburn was somewhat left out in the cold. secretly vowed that he must become a star in the limelight and let everyone see his light.

Of course, being left out is just a proud self-feeling, as an actress focused on training by William Films, how could she be ignored?

Rose took her and Joan with her. Crawford, introducing them to the filmmakers present.

When these three women stand together, it becomes a beautiful landscape that attracts the attention of too many people.

Under the promotion of William Films, both local and foreign cinema owners are willing to introduce "Arabian Nights", and it is believed that the contract will be signed soon.

Howard. Hughes suddenly became the object of the film businessmen's courtesy, and the sycophants kept popping up in his ears like bubbles from oil wells, and burst with a slight explosiveness, which made him unhappy.

At this time, he was no longer the object of ridicule, but a successful filmmaker.

Howard. Hughes was so upset that he finally raised his eyebrows, even if he was a hypocrisy with those guys, he was very happy.

It's a bit of a pity that when I look back, I can't see Catherine anymore. Hepburn's figure.

But it didn't matter, he knew her address, and the next morning he showed up in Catherine. Hepburn downstairs, driving an expensive car, wearing a beautiful white suit, and holding a bouquet of roses in his hand, you can tell at a glance that this guy has "bad intentions"!

(If he shows up on a Chinese campus in a certain position, this guy could be mistaken for a liar, well, just a 5 yuan military ID card and a fake military uniform bought from Taobao.) ）

"Mr. Hughes, are you going to ask me out?" Catherine. Hepburn asked with a smile, leaning against the doorway and not inviting guests into the house, but looked at Howard with a smile. Hughes glanced at him, looked at his energetic appearance, and thought: This kid is so handsome!

"Of course. I beg the beautiful Miss Hepburn to give me a face, so that I can have a good day with you! ”

Howard. Hughes held the flowers in his hand and made an inviting gesture with one hand.

Catherine. Hepburn took the flowers, sniffed them, they were so fragrant, so beautiful, smiled, and shook his head: "No! It's a waste that Mr. Hughes doesn't spend such a good day with his wife, so please go back! ”

After saying "bang", the door was closed!

Ate a closed door. Howard. Hughes was a little surprised. No one has ever rejected themselves so neatly. This woman is so rude!

However, she has a lot of personality! I like it!

Not reconciled, Howard. Hughes went to knock on the door again.

"Anything else? Mr. Hughes! "Catherine. Hepburn opened the door and said impatiently.

I have made it very clear, and I don't want to provoke the married man in front of me. When she first came to Hollywood, she hadn't fully gained a foothold, her focus was still on work, but she didn't have the mood and energy to fall in love.

Howard. Hughes confronts Catherine. Hepburn's accusations. Touching his nose in amazement, he explained, "We have no feelings anymore, and our marriage will end soon." ”

"Then let's talk about it!"

Catherine. Hepburn Road.

I thought, "I don't care about your marriage."

Due to the fact that she was going to take acting lessons, Catherine. Hepburn didn't have time to pay attention to Howard. Hughes, send him away.

For the next few days, that guy was stuck in the downstairs door early in the morning, which was really annoying, every time it was a beautiful car and flowers, gradually, Catherine. Hepburn doesn't seem to be too annoying. had to accept it, but on the surface he was still cold.

The persuasion of Uncle Rupert. Failed to dismiss Howard. Hughes's mind, he divorced shortly after the success of the movie.

Catherine. When Hepburn learned about it, he was interested in Howard. Hughes's attitude changed, and he was sometimes invited into the house to discuss movie scripts.

This is one of the few common topics in their future relationship.

On this day, Catherine. Hepburn wanted to play and had been in Hollywood for a while, and she hadn't played a single round of golf.

Howard. Hughes immediately took her and said, "I know there's a very good golf course, and there's no one to bother, I'll take you there!" ”

Catherine. Hepburn was curious and fell in love with Howard. Hughes's Car, by Catherine. Hepburn lived in a company-rented house, near Hollywood, built by the Hollywood Development Company, not too good, not too bad, suitable for the middle class, Catherine. Hepburn was quite satisfied.

When you come to the bottom of Beverly Hill and compare it with the wealthy area here, you feel like you're out.

"This is the rich neighborhood of Los Angeles?" Catherine. Hepburn looked curiously at the palm trees outside the car window and the villa behind the trees, and all kinds of good cars parked in front of the villa.

The community is quiet, tidy and beautiful, not easy to be disturbed, and you will buy a house here when you have money in the future.

She thought to herself.

"That's right, this is Beverly Hills, where many Hollywood stars live, including Miss Rose, who is friendly to you."

Howard. Hughes smiled and nodded, the real estate in Beverly Hills and Hollywood Sunset Boulevard was built by the Hollywood Development Company, which hired a large number of Chinese construction workers when it was built, and developed these two places into high-end residential areas and bustling commercial areas in Los Angeles in just a few years, and the Hollywood Development Company is now making money.

According to Tom the kid, the major shareholder behind the Hollywood Development Company is the William Foundation, and only the William family has the solid political resources and huge economic strength to develop Hollywood.

Although he has little interest in real estate development, he has to marvel at how large and far-reaching the influence of the William family is in the city and in Hollywood.

Despite knowing a lot of the insider, Howard. Hughes was not in Catherine. Hepburn showed off his extensive knowledge in front of him, and he would have been triumphant in replacing him with a general boy who didn't know the depths, and Bo Jiaren smiled.

"It's my house in front, do you want to go in and do it? How about a cup of coffee? "Howard. Hughes invited.

Didn't wait for Catherine. Hepburn agreed, and the car was parked on a longer, wider road in the middle of nowhere, next to a single-family house.

"Aren't you going to play golf? How did it get to your house? Howard, you're so cunning! "Catherine. Hepburn whitened Howard. Hughes glanced at it, a little reluctant to get out of the car.

"The golf course is nearby, but it's not easy for cars to get in, so we have to find more convenient tools to get in." Howard. Hughes smiled mysteriously.

Catherine. Hepburn was curious to see Howard. Hughes looked so smug that the ninja didn't ask him.

After going inside for a cup of coffee, Howard. Hughes Jean Catherine. Hepburn was waiting for him at the door.

Catherine. Hepburn stood at the door for a while, then he heard the rumbling sound of a machine, and when he looked back, a beautiful plane with white paint came by. Hughes poked his head out of the glass cockpit and beckoned to her with a smile.

This guy is such a!

Catherine. Hepburn got on the plane, the plane was not big, the cockpit was modified, and it was quite spacious for two people.

"This is my secret weapon! Do you like it? It will take us on a tour of Hollywood and Los Angeles. ”

Howard. Hughes asked with a smile.

"I hope it doesn't fall from the sky!"

Catherine. Hepburn said lightly, looking at Howard with some seriousness. Hughes, "Can you guarantee it?" ”

See Catherine. Hepburn was a little worried, Howard. Hughes swore that he had a pilot's license and was experienced in flying. Hepburn was relieved.

Damn it! How did I run into a madman!

Catherine. Hepburn reviewed herself for being too careless, and after the plane flew into the sky, the unique feeling of overlooking Hollywood from the sky immediately made her forget her worries.

Howard. Hughes skillfully operated the plane, and after flying around Beverly Hills, he flew over William's Hills, pointing to the castle-like buildings of William's Manor and the golf course that had been carved out around it, and he smiled: "Have you seen the course below, it's beautiful, isn't it?" ”

"It's beautiful! I didn't expect there to be a nice course on Beverly Hills! Why haven't you heard of it? "Catherine. Hepburn nodded and asked Howard. Hughes.

"Because down there is William's Manor! A large area of land on the mountain is privately owned, and cars under the mountain have to be checked by guards to enter, even the residents of the town under the mountain cannot easily come up! ”

Howard. Hughes Road.

"It turned out to be Mr. William's home! I can only say that he is richer than I imagined, no wonder he is rarely seen in film studios. ”

Catherine. Hepburn sighed in his heart and smiled, "That's fine, this golf course is cheaper for us." ”

"That's right! What a waste of pitches! "Howard. Hughes said as he operated the plane to land.

After the plane landed, he jumped off the plane and took Catherine. Hepburn half-helped and half-hugged to get off the plane.

Catherine. Hepburn straightened his hair and looked back to see a blue-and-white convertible car driving a young lady dressed in white, with a teenage boy and a younger girl sitting in the car.

"The hostess of this place, Laura. Mellon, and her children. "Howard. Hughes in Catherine. Hepburn whispered.

"Mellon? Which Mellon? "Catherine. Hepburn was a little confused.

"The Mellon family from Pittsburgh! The princess of the Mellon family! ”

Howard. Hughes Road.

Andrew. Mellon has been Treasury Secretary for two terms, whether it's the mediocre Harding, or the silent Coolidge. Mellon is the real talker.

Take the Halliburton Oilfield Management Company, which acquired its own Hughes Tools Company, as an example, there is the shadow of the Mellon family's Gulf Oil Company behind it, and of course, the William family and the Rockefeller family, who control the Halliburton Oilfield Management Company, basically the three major oil families of Rockefeller, Mellon, and William have monopolized the oil industry in the United States.

Originally in Texas, now mixed in California, Howard. Hughes is far more aware of the influence of the Mellon family than the average person, and the more he realizes this, the less confident he is to take back Hughes Tools, and he doesn't want to develop in the energy industry, only in the emerging film and aviation industries, and maybe he Howard. A place for Hughes.
