Chapter 169: "Roman Holiday" is released

After spending a few days at Columbia University and discussing his future with Mike, Shen returned to Las Vegas with Chapter-Mauss, Dantraus, and the Columbia math professor to finish the book on poker at the Flamingo Club.

At the same time, Shen Long also began to prepare for the construction of smuggling channels to Asia, he did not choose those Italian descendants born in the United States to complete this work, these people have lived in the United States for a long time, more or less influenced by American culture, in World War II, there are many people in vain to ignore the good intentions of old Vito, give up the opportunity to be exempt from service, take the initiative to carry guns to the battlefield.

In their words, this country is good to me, and I should do something for this country; It would be inappropriate for such people to engage in certain actions that could harm U.S. interests; So Shen Long chose all the newcomers who had just immigrated to the United States from Sicily for less than two years.

These people are loyal to the Sicilian tradition, they are distrustful of the government, and they still see themselves as Sicilians, not American citizens, and they are allowed to do so without fear of leaks.

And they don't know where these goods will end up, they only know that they are probably destined for Asia, and in Asia, the United States' sphere of influence is too extensive, the Philippines, Japan and other countries are within this range, and Shen Long has indeed established some channels in these places, which can cover the whereabouts of these materials to the greatest extent.

They only needed to hand over the supplies to the Hongmen, who did not speak a word of Chinese and spoke in English, and Shen Long's Sicilian subordinates guessed at most that they were underground forces in the Philippines or Japan.

After all this, Shen Long rushed to Hollywood non-stop, "Roman Holiday" had finished filming, and Audrey Hepburn had also returned from Europe.

After a long absence, the two of them were extremely happy, and they didn't come out of the house for several days, and after Shen Long's diet and maintenance, Hepburn's health has improved greatly, and there is no need to worry about her being unbearable.

After the initial post-production of the film was completed, Shen Long watched the film with Audrey Hepburn, Johnny Fang Tan, William Wheeler, Gregory Peck, Huang Zongzhan and other main creators.

Although I have watched this movie many times, I still amazed Shen Long by watching it again, especially the new color picture makes up for the regret of the black and white picture, which makes Hepburn's charm undoubted.

"Your performance is definitely worthy of a statuette, and this film definitely has a chance to be the best film of the year." Shen Long couldn't help but admire, he planned to use his connections to help Hepburn win this little golden man; Of course, when the awards ceremony comes, he will definitely be there in person, so as not to have people who don't open their eyes to do things.

"Yes, Audrey is a natural actor, she can attract all the attention as long as she stands in front of the camera, and she will definitely become a legend in Hollywood and even human film history." The great director William Wheeler is also full of praise for Hepburn's performance, some things are innate, and others can't catch up no matter how hard they try.

"Fredo, this movie is coming soon, do you have any good stories there? I can't wait to get the new movie in the works! Johnny rubbed his hands together and asked, enjoying the success of two consecutive films, as well as the funding injection from the Rockefeller consortium, which greatly improved his status in Hollywood.

"Let Audrey rest for a while, the previous shooting was too hard, and after Christmas, I will come up with a work that is very suitable for her." Now that "Roman Holiday" has been filmed, it is time to shoot another classic of Audrey Hepburn, "Breakfast at Tiffany's".

"Johnny, you can't always count on me for this kind of thing, there are so many writers out there these days, so many good stories, and you completely buy their stories for adaptation." How can I say that I am also the boss of the underworld in the United States, so I can't write scripts for you every day, right? Just help you two at the beginning of the company, and you will have to look up to yourself in the future.

"I know, but it's good for you to bring out their stories." Johnny smiled embarrassedly, he was already satisfied with the promise of getting a movie this time, and then he would continue to search for better scripts, along with the previous success, now the company has received more and more scripts, and there are many long-established gold medal screenwriters to submit manuscripts to them, Johnny has many options.

It didn't take long for the post-production of "Roman Holiday" to be officially completed and began to be released in theaters across the United States, and Audrey Hepburn, who was as noble and elegant as a real princess, and Gregory Peck, who was full of American gentlemanliness, quickly conquered fans all over the United States, and the two of them became new superstars in Hollywood, and the box office of the movie also went all the way.

Johnny Studio's second film was also a huge success, not only laundering a lot of money for the Corleone family, but also bringing them huge profits, and the studio's market value continued to rise, and even George Tormond of the Rockefeller consortium called to congratulate him, and this business also raised his status within the consortium a lot.

It's just that old Vito doesn't like this movie very much, after all, he is a traditional Sicilian, and Sicilians have never dealt with Rome very well, so naturally he doesn't have much affection for this film that depicts the scenery of Rome.

But he didn't care much about it now, and seeing that the family was developing rapidly in a way he didn't quite understand, he felt that he himself seemed to be a little out of step with the times, but fortunately, the third generation of the family was slowly growing up, and he was happy to play with the children in the Corleone house in Long Beach.

Christmas, Shen Long returned to Long Beach, the family was reunited, he saw that Santino had recovered from the sinking, but after so long, the middle level of the family had changed, and he couldn't shake Shen Long's position, and he didn't have this idea himself, Shen Long gave him a piece of land in New York, and he continued to live his old life, but his temper was much better.

Connie found another handsome young man, only this time the young man did not dare to do anything to her; Mike returns with Kai and announces that they will be getting married next year, and the big guys send their blessings.

It seems that in this world, Mike probably won't return to the family to engage in the underworld business, I wonder if my mission this time is officially completed? Shen Long guessed.
