Chapter 637: Sudden Resignation

Vic Mackie, after returning home, opened his eyes and thought about things all night, causing his wife next to the pillow to mumble in protest, "Vic, take a sleeping pill if you can't sleep." It's five o'clock. ”

"Forget it, you can sleep."

He simply got up, went to the fridge to get a bottle of beer, drank it and walked to the garage, hesitated in front of his eldest daughter's car for a while, finally made up his mind, opened the engine compartment, quietly unscrewed a part, and went to the kitchen to get busy.

"Today is Daddy's breakfast."

At breakfast time, the whole family got up, and the wife said to the pair of children sitting obediently at the dinner table.

The youngest son's autism is much more serious, he doesn't speak, he doesn't react, he just stares at the oatmeal rings soaked in the milk in a daze.

"Thank you, Daddy." The youngest daughter, who had only mild symptoms, was eating happily with a spoon.

Vic squeezed out a smile and pinched his little daughter's face, his ears pricked up, listening to the movement in the garage.

"What a goddamn broken car!"

Cassidy kept twisting the car keys, and the car whimpered and roared, but it just wouldn't start.

"I'll take a look."

Vic wiped his mouth and walked to the garage, "Cassidy, what's wrong?" ”

"The car seems to be broken down again." Cassidy thumped at the wheel, "I'm going to be late......"

"Let it go, I have a holiday today, and I will help you repair well."

Vic walked over to his car, "Here, I'll take you to school." ”

"Okay......"

Cassidy grabbed her things and got into his car, "You're coming to pick me up that night?" ”

"No problem, hey, hey, you're still in class with that NGer?"

"No, I'm already ahead of him." Cassidy replied dissatisfiedly: "Can you stop using that name?" Daddy. ”

"OK, OK, I'm relieved that he won't take classes with you."

Vic started the car, and began to knock on her words along the way, and when the person was delivered, he stayed at the University of Chicago and waited, estimating that the time was almost up, and got out of the car and went straight to the school building where Song Ya was classing.

"Mike, come here."

showed the badge to the school security guard, and found the old Mike who was wandering around the corridor on a certain floor unimpeded.

"Mike!" He cowered at the emergency exit and whistled.

"You shouldn't have found this place." Old Mike saw him and said with a straight face.

"Dead old man, give me some respect!"

He was annoyed by Old Mike's reaction, but he didn't bother much, and whispered to Sean about being entangled by the FBI, "I understand the FBI, and at this time, I'm here to investigate the old wiretapping case that implicates us and your boss at the same time, and I'm targeting Sean, who is more sloppy...... If you think about it, there must be a problem. ”

"The problem is also your problem."

Old Mike rolled his eyes, "We did what we promised, but we're not responsible for wiping your SA's butts." ”

"Hey! What do you mean? Call APLUS out and I'll talk to him personally! Vic was furious.

"It's inconvenient, Vic, you've been a black policeman for so many years, you should know the rules." Old Mike refused.

"Good, good......"

Vic scratched his bald head and spun around a few times, re-confirming that no one could hear the conversation between the two, "But you have to tell that kid for me, in addition to the FBI, Prosecutor Argus, who was in charge of the Lowry Jr. and Sinaloa cases recently, also suddenly resigned, and I heard that he was called by the FBI to talk before he resigned." ”

"The young man with a smile on his face all the time?" Old Mike asked.

"Yes, that guy was in charge of the witness deal between Barron, Lori Jr.'s lawyer, and the police."

Vic nodded, "I promise I won't have a problem, but your eyes need to be brightened!" ”

"Okay, I'll tell him." Old Mike nodded.

Vic went downstairs back to the car, thought about it and drove outside Sean's quarters, and continued to keep an eye on it.

"Argus? I know he did come under some pressure from the FBI, and Peter told me that former state attorney Charles filed a report before leaving office that specifically noted Argus's role in Lowry Jr. and Sinaloa. ”

Song Ya was told by Mike Sr., "Argus is a man who is very good at seeing the wind and rudder, and he betrayed Charles and joined him after Peter's election success, so Charles wants to do this to him before leaving." Peter had asked Alicia to recruit Argus as the title partner of the new firm, and now that Flock has changed its name to Flock & Argus, he has become a lawyer representing some of my practice. Under the lawyer's client confidentiality obligations, he can now refuse any request from law enforcement to testify against me, and Vic's fears are unwarranted. ”

"He seems to be a little suspicious lately." Old Mike said.

"Of course, he's done a great deal......"

Song Ya and Old Mike now tacitly agreed not to talk about Vic's killing of the FBI inspector, and this matter was originally his guy going alone, "Don't worry about it for the time being, let Vic worry about it, just keep in touch with Peter now." ”

At the end of February, he flew to Los Angeles to join his fiancΓ©e, who was already there.

"Miss Kelly has just signed a production contract with Twentieth Century Fox, her newly opened Glitter Film Studio has invested 10 million, and Twentieth Century Fox has invested 2 million to start filming the movie Star Dream Tear Stain starring her with a symbolic one-meter blade salary, Fox Films moved quickly, and Miss Kelly's money was in place and immediately entered the stage of forming the main creative team."

Yeremov reported to him on the progress of various projects, "the script for the sequel to Dance My Life has also been finalized......"

"Of course, this kind of good thing Fox is moving quickly, for fear that the money in hand will fly! You help her more, find more reliable directors and actors. ”

Song Ya complained while flipping through the script of the sequel to Dance My Life.

The sequel tells an old-fashioned story of a rice-style campus youth drama.,The male protagonist who is more nesty in school is a hip-hop master.,The school girl who has a crush on him doesn't knock him with a straight eye.,But once the two met in the dance studio.,She found that the male protagonist was full of charm as soon as he started dancing.,Just at this time she and the quarterback boyfriend were in conflict......

In the end, it must be the happy ending that the two finally fell in love after some dramatic conflicts.

The school love between a white boy and a girl in the eighth grade, the hip-hop elements that became more and more popular after dancing the first part of my life, which made the school bully deflated, and there were more time, bigger and more exciting dance fighting passages than the first part, and Universal made up for all the flaws in what they thought were in the first part.

"It's a little corny, but it's okay to watch." Song Ya commented.

"The standard Hollywood commercialization routine, full score." Yeremov laughed.

"Where's the cat-and-mouse game?" Song Ya asked again.

"Linton and I have signed a directing contract with Ridley Scott, two plus three, two million salaries, and three percent of the bill, not the kind of box office share that David Fincher demanded, but the kind of profit share after all the costs are settled."

Yeremov replied: "The first batch of five million dollars each of our two sides has been put into a special account, and now Ridley Scott has started to form a directing team, and I have put Zack Schneider in it, and they are meeting with the screenwriter to discuss the storyboard ......"

"Don't let the script go beyond my control, it's okay to increase, but definitely not to decrease." Song Ya laid the groundwork for wielding big scissors in the future.

"I understand, are you going to Hollywood Studios to meet them?"

Yeremov handed over some financial documents: "It seems that Abagnel and the retired FBI agent Joseph Shay have also arrived, and Linton has arranged for them to be advisers, and Abagnel can also get a sum of money to help with publicity." The legendary liar was so happy that when the movie was released, his books and speeches would be bought again, and there would be a lot more announcements. ”

"Director's salary...... Screenwriter, Cinematographer, Consultant ......"

The movie project has officially begun, and the cat-and-mouse game has begun to burn money, "There's no turning back now, right?" ”

"There's been no turning back for a long time, we gave Hollywood Studios a sum of money in order to get the script, and the money was spent in vain when the project was yellow."

Yeremov laughed: "Now you can finally include that expenditure in the production cost." ”

"Don't dwell on those small money, this is a big project of 20 million, and you also urge the old man Johnny Carson, his money and interpersonal resources should also enter the market."

Song Ya didn't find any problems and returned the documents to him, "I'm not going, I'm going to prepare for the Grammy Awards on March 1, and I should be able to get the trophy this year." ”

"Understood, then I wish you an award. Oh yes......"

After Yeremov finished speaking, he remembered something, "Just now, at three o'clock this afternoon, Doug Morris suddenly announced his resignation from the position of president of Warner Music and left Warner ...... directly."

β€œWhat? Why? Resign from the Big Six? He hasn't been in office for long, has he? Song Ya asked in surprise.

"I don't know, he was lucky to be in the internal struggle of Warner Music, maybe now he has lost the value of his existence?"

Yeremov didn't pay much attention to the record industry, "maybe preparing for new opportunities?" Why don't you ask him yourself? I remember he had a good relationship with you. ”

"That's for Daniel's sake, I'll ask Daniel."

Song Ya dialed Daniel's phone and asked about it.

"Uh...... Daniel stumbled on the other end of the phone, "Maybe he can't stand the chaos within Warner, or maybe he has his eye on the MCA president position that Universal's handover, I ...... It's not very clear either. ”

"Do you feel something?"

Song Ya intuitively felt that his reaction was not normal, "We lost a friend of the six presidents so suddenly, or is there something I don't know about?" ”

"Anyway...... Doug Morris has his own considerations. ”

Daniel said perfunctorily, "Let's talk when we meet at the Grammy dinner, I've put a lot of effort into competing for you this time, APLUS." ”

"Okay, see you then, thank you Daniel."
