Chapter 195: Coming from the Elephant Party
The crew of "Instinct" had finished and started post-production at this time, and Sharon Stone and others had nothing to do.
Sean's sudden arrival makes Sharon Stone very happy.
Being able to come to Hollywood to find her shows that Sean has not forgotten her, which is more important than anything else.
After tasting the taste of the heroine, she cherishes this feeling very much, and understands that this opportunity was given to her.
Catwoman Michelle Pfeiffer visits late at night, Sharon Stone turns into a police officer, and a three-way mixed doubles unfolds in the villa.
The three of them fought from the pool to the living room, and from the living room to the bathroom, and both women left the smell of the big war......
After playing for a whole day, Sean swept away the gloom in his heart, and only then did he have time to go to the company.
Is Sean here for a woman?
It's narrow!
Sean came to see the rough cut of "Instinct".
In the screening room, a rough cut of 280 minutes, Sean watched sometimes frowning, sometimes stretching.
Editing to this extent, Paul himself is a little unable to go under the knife.
Why can't Hollywood directors get the final editing rights?
In fact, the proportion of power struggle in this is very low, and the real situation is that as the director of the shooting, the scenes that he can leave behind are the pictures that he envisions and satisfies in his heart.
Due to some artistic pursuits, directors like to add some profound, satirical, and critical elements to the film, and the more aspiring the director, the more famous the director, the more so.
The director is always reluctant to cut off even any bit of what he shoots with his own hands like his own child.
And that's not audience-friendly.
After all, audiences with low academic qualifications cannot be required to have such a deep level of aesthetics.
The audience is not the judges, and the audience enters the cinema and prefers to see something that makes them happy, fearful, stimulated, and so on that stimulates their senses.
This is actually in conflict with the director.
Therefore, this is the need for professional editors, and there is generally an 'editing award' in any film award.
Editing can often fight with the director......
Whether the final film is good or not, whether the box office is high or not, on the one hand, depends on the director, and on the other hand, it also depends on the editing.
Comparing the original film in his head, Sean thought for a while and said, "Editor, cut the film once according to my request." β
Sean suddenly spoke, and the people in the screening room looked over.
It's true that Sean is the boss, and it's true that he has money, but this is Hollywood, and this is making a movie, which is a very professional thing, even if the script is written by Sean, but I haven't heard of a screenwriter who can edit it.
Clipping, very professional, very professional one thing!
No one believes that Sean can edit well, Hollywood, the whole world has no precedent for this.
These people who engage in art, although they like money, they are actually very arrogant in their hearts.
(Ahem, the stinky code word always likes to add material to the text...... I can't control how many I send, and then I was scolded by the reader. οΌ
"Good!" Norris stood up and turned on the light as soon as possible, "What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up, it's your honor to let the boss take action personally." β
Does it matter if the boss will cut it or not?
No!
The most important thing is that the boss is happy!
Dogleg .jpg
A group of people secretly glanced at Norris in disgust, this guy, he doesn't even want his face!
Sean didn't bother to care what they thought, he only knew that the original film made money, and made a lot of money!
Oh, I think I won a prize......
According to the original film in his head, Sean waved a big scissor, and under Paul's ugly face, a large part of the plot was cut at Sean's request.
Eventually, Paul couldn't take it anymore and turned around and walked away.
I was busy in the editing room all afternoon, until late at night, and the whole film had about 140 minutes left.
The original film should be more than 120 minutes, but Sean can only remember so much.
Everyone, even Paul, who had just run away in anger, came back with a black face.
Re-screening, slowly,, don't say, it's pretty good!
The main creative team in the screening room always peeked at Sean from time to time, and the effect of the finished film was very unexpected, well, greatly unexpected.
This shouldn't be something made by a layman.
It shouldn't be!
The suspense, thriller, and suddenness of the film are all very good, especially the charm of Sharon Stone, which is infinitely magnified after being edited, and people can't help but think of some ......
Picture.
Gan!
As the screening ended and the lights turned on, Norris was the first to stand up and applaud loudly, and the others also stood up this time and applauded Shaun vigorously.
Marvel!
They witnessed a miracle!
Sean stood up with a smile, raised his hands and pressed down, Ji Cao, Ji Cao!
It wasn't until the applause stopped that Sean smiled and said, "That's all I can do, and later, you guys are refining it yourself." β
"So, my mission is done."
"Good luck with our movie at the box office!"
"A box office hit!" The crowd cheered loudly.
Sean came out of the screening room, and Norris followed behind, "Boss, you are really amazing, I think, there is nothing you can't do, you are a god!" β
The horses were too blunt, and Sean said, okay!
"In the evening, there are a few actresses who want to learn from you, you ......," Norris leaned over and whispered.
Sean paused, thought for a while, and said, "I don't have time these days, next time." β
Sean sternly refused!
Today, I have to go to the crew of "Die Hard", last night it was big fish and big meat, and I wanted a physical indulgence.
Diane Lynn is a little fresh, and she wants spiritual satisfaction.
People, we must have a nobler pursuit!
What's more, "Die Hard" has something to ask him to help with.
In fact, John looked for a Sean a while ago, but there was an attack, and the matter was delayed.
"The explosion scene, in the plot design, at this time, the FBI came to rescue the helicopter stopped on the roof of the building, and finally the robbers ...... Rumble! John opened his hands and shouted a little frantically, "Do you know how shocking this scene will be!" β
"No movie has ever actually done that now, and we're going to be the first to eat crabs!"
"On the top of a skyscraper, blow up a helicopter!"
"This one will definitely shock everyone!"
"This will become a classic, a classic that everyone is vying to imitate!"
As he spoke, John suddenly spread his hands a little decadently, "But I need the other party's consent to detonate it on the rooftop." β
"And the other party did not agree to do this, for fear that it would really blow up the building."
"I also need a helicopter to blow up."
The corners of Sean's mouth twitched, and he finally understood why the filming cost of "Die Hard" was so high.
You're a real punishment!
Shoot this in real scenes, good guys, the money is not out of you, you don't feel distressed, right?
Sean is so convinced, just thinking about the shock, how can he think about my wallet!
But things have come to this point, and the other shots of the whole film are basically filmed, so it is so trembling, Sean can't agree or not.
This time, he realized the fear of twentieth century Fox for truck drivers.
That's a real thing, you never know how much he'll ask you for later!
The promised 12 million shooting cost is special......
I don't believe you anymore!
Sean walked away with a black face, and he had to contact the demolition specialist to make sure he didn't cause damage to the building's stairs.
Then you have to contact the insurance company and pay a huge premium.
Only when this is done will the owners of the building agree.
In the end, it's money, money, money......
There's nothing money can't solve.
The advice given by the blasting experts is to cover the roof of the building, add a buffer layer, a fire protection layer, and an explosion-proof layer, so as to ensure that no damage is caused to the building.
Experts are only responsible for giving opinions, as for the cost issue, what does it have to do with me!
Working at height, construction costs, lockout costs, materials, labor......
Sean looked at the money and his brain was buzzing.
"I'll make you a big scene!"
"I'll let you spend money indiscriminately!"
"you!" Sean shouted in his heart, and his waist strength became stronger and stronger......
Diane Lynn's delicate body trembled, and those who swayed their heads were dizzy.
After three days in Los Angeles and watching an NBA game, Sean returned to Newark full of exhaustion.
It's only three days, and I spent more than 6 million, not counting the money for the plane, and I have to contact the military to get a scrapped helicopter back.
This time it's a real scrap......
Sean has already decided that if "Die Hard" can't be a big hit, he will send John to the Peace Hotel, damn, sell his ass and make money back for Lao Tzu!
In fact, Sean also wanted to relax in Hollywood for a few more days, but there was something going on here in New Jersey and he had to come back.
Peter is coming.
β¦β¦
In the few days he has been playing in Hollywood, the plan for Santos has already begun.
At first, it was several tabloids that Sean bought that reported it, and because the news was too strong, several big newspapers followed suit.
When the report came out, Santos didn't think about suppressing the news, but those tabloids belonged to Sean, and his relationship was useless.
Santos then approached the Elephant Party, but the news had already spread, but there were a few big newspapers that gave the Elephant Party face and did not participate in the first place, but the Elephant Party could not control all the media after all.
No one can control it.
Especially on the third day, after the photos of the bows coded on the eyes and chest broke out......
The news exploded completely.
At the same time, the district attorney on the Donkey Party's side launched an investigation into Santos.
Santos is also an old councilor, and the news channels are still quite wide, and when the investigation is carried out here, someone notified him there.
"Damn, who is it? Did that guy do it? When Santos heard the news, he gritted his teeth, waved his arms and shouted: "It must be him, it must be!" β
"I don't know who it is, but you'll have to figure it out."
"How dare he, how dare he, I ......" Santos kept muttering in his mouth, in fact, he was already afraid, very afraid.
"I, I didn't participate in the attack on him, I don't know, really, how could I do something like that!"
"Okay, man, it's useless for you to tell me about this kind of thing, think of a way to find someone to communicate."
"I see, I know." Santos panicked to find the head of the Elephant Party on this side, and the other party frowned as he listened.
"Are you sure you're not involved!"
"Of course, of course I didn't, how could I do that kind of thing, am I crazy!" Santos held his head, and he was terrified when he knew.
Brewster Jesse stared at Santos for a while, and he didn't believe Santos had the guts.
In addition, he also did not think that there was anything wrong with what Santos had done before.
Help the gold lord to speak, there is nothing wrong with this.
"Peter, we are in the party, you should know him, he was an engineer at Sean Construction Company, he quit after buying the construction company from Sean, and then took the construction company to court, last year it was quite a sensation, and then he joined the Elephant Party." Brewster Jesse slowly recounts Sean's past.
They will investigate the past of party members.
"He, the person behind him is Sean?" Santos is also an old councilor, so he naturally understands everyone's consistent operation methods, and he understands it at once.
"Yes, let him come forward to communicate with Sean, you know, it's inconvenient for me to come forward directly." Brewster Jesse whispered.
Peter could convince Sean that it would be best, and if he couldn't, he would have room to maneuver if he stepped forward again.
"Okay, thank you, I'll go to Peter." Santos stood up and walked out quickly without delay.
β¦β¦
"Peter, come, sit, how has it been lately, is it going well?" Sean beckoned Peter to sit down.
"It's okay, I want to run for the Senate this time." Peter is no longer the engineer he once was, and now he has a strong sense of politicianship.
"Ready?"
"That's pretty much it, it's useless to prepare more, you still have to run for election, even if you can't succeed this time, it's a good publicity to lay the foundation for next time." Peter smiled and said, "It's good that someone succeeds in the first election, and that Mr. Bush Jr. also failed in his first state congression." β
He's got a good mentality.
"Not bad." Sean nodded, and said that Lao Mei doesn't pay attention to seniority, which is actually wrong.
Seniority is important in any country, and seniority is also driven by the concerns of those in positions of power who are concerned about their treatment at the end of their political careers and after retirement.
It's just that capitalism is less serious.
"Be prepared to succeed, though, because after all, you've got me behind you." Sean smiled and pointed at himself.
He must put Peter in the senatorial position this time.
If you want to get a foothold anywhere, you have to show your wrists.
This kind of thing seems to be very low-level, but it has always existed and will continue to exist in the future.
Peter was very happy, but his face was calm, and he only expressed his gratitude.
After chatting for a while, Sean picked the topic, "I'm here for that old guy from Santos." β
"Yes." Peter didn't say much, he knew that if Sean was willing to let Santos go in his face, he would say it directly, and if he didn't want to, it was useless for him to persuade him.
"I'm going to send Santos to jail this time, well, my prison!" Sean said categorically, waving his arm hard.
Peter nodded, "I see." β
"However, boss, you have to be careful of the revenge of the elephant party."
"It's not right or wrong, it's a shame that the Elephant Party can't just watch Santos being sent to prison and not react."
Sean nodded, thought for a while and said, "You go back and tell Santos that the councillors are elected by the people, and the meaning of the councillor's existence is communication, the communication channel between the people and the government, and between the government and the people." β
"When you encounter something, the first thing you think about should be how to communicate privately, instead of talking indiscriminately!"
"Santos forgot the value of his existence, he thought that the power came from him, but, alas, it wasn't!" As he spoke, Sean also took a deep look at Peter.
Peter's pupils narrowed, and Sean asked him to tell Santos, in fact, to Brewster Jesse and himself.
"You know, trouble comes from the mouth!"
"Everybody is responsible for what they've done, and I'm no exception, so I almost died a few days ago, and he can't be an exception."
"If you make a mistake, you must admit it, and if you are beaten, you must stand upright!"
"I know, I'll tell them." Peter nodded and stood up.
β¦β¦
Peter didn't go to Santos, the guy was finished, and there was no need to have any more relationships.
The corners of Brewster Jesse's mouth curled up after listening to the words that Sean had brought.
A good upbringing kept him from laughing.
Although the United States does not have the phrase "killing chickens and making an example of monkeys", the meaning of this is universal.
Young man, the anger is not small.
In Brewster Jesse's more than 20 years of political career, he has seen a lot of such young people, he is always so aggressive, he always can't stand the slightest grievance, and he always thinks that he can do anything.
But don't think about who you're up against!
Sean is determined to bring down Santos, and there is nothing he can do, who makes Santos himself unclean.
Well, few of them are really clean.
It wasn't that he laughed at, it was Sean's attitude that he laughed at.
Brewster Jesse admits that Sean did a good job at a young age and has a background in the Rockefeller family.
However, Sean has been up for too short a time, he hasn't experienced any ups and downs, and he doesn't know society, which is actually not what they see.
Yes, when they see Sean's young appearance, they always habitually look down on him.
This is also the case with him, this is a matter of inertia, and it is useless to remind yourself often.
If it were replaced by a veteran New Jersey bigwig, Santos would never dare to talk nonsense in front of the media so impulsively.
One thing Sean is right when he says that parliamentarians, or politicians, should communicate as the first thing they do when they encounter problems.
After all, politicians are not soldiers, they eat by their brains and mouths.
But that doesn't mean you can kill Santos' political future!
He is a member of the Elephant Party, even if he is wrong, he should deal with it within the Elephant Party, and it is not your turn to show off your power.
What's more, he is an elephant party boss, one of the senators of Congress, who has been in the political arena for more than 20 years, and he asked Santos to ask Peter to communicate.
This is already a soft submission, not to mention that you have already dealt Santos a heavy blow in the media, and you have taken revenge on any grudges.
But you junior actually said such a thing, and didn't give him Brewster Jesse any face, it's impossible to say that he wasn't angry.
Whether it is for the sake of the party's face or for him personally, he must take revenge.
It's just that you have to pay attention to proportion.
Politics is the art of compromise.
β¦β¦
"Sir, this is the information you want." After receiving Sean's reply during the day, Brewster Jesse went to investigate all the assets in Sean's name as a party team.
Like the party's ability, it is not too easy to get real information.
Brewster Jesse took the report with a relaxed face and smiled and let people go down.
Page by page.

Of course, Sean Fitness Brewster Jesse has heard that in the past year or so, it has rapidly grown to the whole of New Jersey, swallowing up several fitness brands that were originally quite good, and he is also a member of Sean Fitness.
It's not that I like fitness so much, it's just that, as a politician, as the head of the New Jersey area of the Elephant Party, there are a lot of people who give gifts.
Sean Fitness' membership card is one of them.
He's been there a few times and it's a good feeling, especially the personal trainer......
Very good figure, full of power, unique flavor,
Thinking about Brewster Jesse, his hand unconsciously rested on his waist.
It's just a bit of a waste waist......
He's a little too old to bear.
Ahem, shaking off the thoughts in his head that he wanted to have but shouldn't have, Brewster Jesse's face became solemn.
When he saw this report, he realized that Sean Fitness around him had developed so much.
In particular, which potential assessment is 'high', which indicates that the development of this fitness group will not slow down for a period of time in the future.
This is very scary, you know, many rich people who have developed for decades can't earn hundreds of millions of dollars.
Shaking his head, Brewster Jesse continued to look through the information behind him.
Sean Transportation: Headquartered in Newark
Vehicles of all types: 542
Shipping coverage: New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Delaware
Owned subsidiary: Sean Auto Repairs
Owned employees: 2351
Company valuation: $64 million

Group net assets: $28.54 million
Development prospects: high
(PS: According to internal information, the transport company is planning to build a logistics center, which will completely monopolize the logistics sector in New Jersey at that time)
Seeing this, Brewster Jesse's face was a little ugly.
Sean Transportation also knew that after the fall of Dimio, he heard that Sean used some means to acquire their transport vehicles from some construction companies and real estate companies, mainly for the transportation of building materials.
At that time, several companies that were familiar with the elephant party were targeted and still found him, but although Sean's methods were despicable, he couldn't find anything wrong, and the bid was not low, so the matter was settled.
Unexpectedly, it has now developed to this extent.
Moreover, what kind of logistics center is going to be built, although he doesn't know what the hell this logistics center is, but it must be very important if it can be specially marked and evaluated as 'high'.
With just two companies, the net worth has exceeded 100 million?
Damn it!
Just kidding that!
Brewster Jesse had mixed feelings in his heart for a while, envy, jealousy, and hatred!
Keep flipping.
Sean Green: Headquarters Trenton
There are 1,208 garbage trucks of all types
Company employees: 4,782
Affiliated companies: waste-to-energy plant, blending oil plant, garbage sorting center, e-waste dumping plant

Debt ratio: 70%
Net assets of the company: $25.5 million
Development prospects: medium
(PS: Environmental Group, which contracts the entire New Jersey garbage disposal business, has a large number of employees, and is an indispensable part of New Jersey)
Seeing this, Brewster Jesse's face twitched a few times.
The garbage disposal business, which everyone avoided at the beginning, has grown so much that oil can be squeezed out of the garbage.
Shit!
It's disgusting to think about, but ......
In particular, it makes a non-profitable industry have development prospects, not to mention that garbage disposal is related to people's livelihood, it is a bomb-like existence, and no one will provoke it.
What's more, Sean's power in wielding the environmental protection stick before really shocked them as veterans.
Thinking about it, Brewster Jesse gritted his teeth a little, damn Santos, you brainless idiot!
Turn the next page.
Sean Bank: Headquartered in New York
Stores: 52 (47 new within six months)
Number of individual accounts: 240,000 (200,000 new in half a year)
Number of company accounts: 4251 (3800 new in half a year)
Deposits: 480 million (400 million new in half a year)
Funds under management: 825 million (760 million new in half a year)
Bank valuation: $55 million
Development Prospects: (Very High)
(PS: The bank is expanding its operations in Cartagena, and in the future, Sean Bank's overseas business will soar due to the presence of the Cartagena Industrial Zone)
Extremely high!?
Looking at these two words, Brewster Jesse stood up suddenly, damn, extremely high evaluation, he hadn't seen it in the report for years!
This means that Sean's bank will usher in explosive growth in the coming period.
However, if you look at the special label of 'new in half a year' in the report, you can see that it has been in an explosive state in the last six months.
If this development continues, won't the bank under Sean's name soar to the sky.
Isn't it, the IRS can control the drug traffickers in the United States, but not the Colombian drug traffickers......
Once Cartagena's trading zone is fully established, the amount of money that banks can mobilize will be terrifying.
Fack, Fack, Fack, Brewster Jesse cursed a few words.
Looking sideways, the report is quite thick...... He suddenly realized that he seemed to be in big trouble for no reason!
Santos, why don't you die!
Peace Hotel: Location Newark
Covers an area of 40 acres
Valuation: $72 million
Corporate Debt Ratio: None
Development prospects: high
(PS: According to the information obtained, the security is extremely high, the concealment is extremely high, any form of transaction is provided inside, the possibility of exposure is low, the integration of food, housing and entertainment, ultra-high-end consumption places, the best gathering area for upper-class people and criminals)
(PS2: According to rumors, its core Starlight Nightclub has a strange concept and novel gameplay, and it is a paradise for men (and women), highly recommended!) οΌ
Brewster Jesse: ???
This, I've heard people say before, a few days ago I started an underground boxing match, and it was said that the players were brought out of the prison, and the fight was very bloody.
Thinking of this, Brewster Jesse was on the spot.
Jail?
Jail!
No way?
Well, whether it is or not, it doesn't matter now.
Brewster Jesse Mental Arithmetic......
A few minutes later, Brewster Jesse picked up the calculator and calculated, 8000 + 2854 + 2250 + 5500 + 7200 = 264 million!
Brewster Jesse's hand shook when he saw the final number, and the calculator flew off.
shitοΌ
2.64οΌοΌ
Crazy!
How much is the total amount of more than 264 million in assets in the whole of New Jersey?
Even if you count those stealth assets, can there be more than 10?
Brewster Jesse knows that it should be surpassed, but it is definitely not much!
In other words, in just two years, Sean is already one of the top 20 richest people in New Jersey?!
No, Brewster Jesse suddenly sounded, the information has not been read, there are many more!
His chest heaved and his hands trembled uncontrollably.
I've always heard that Sean has done this and that, and he always makes a lot of news, which makes them old-fashioned people not very accustomed to it.
It's just a little hairy child, a guy who hasn't grown all the hair, thinking that he can become a real upper-class person by relying on this mafia method?
Ha!
It's ridiculous, what if Dimio has developed for decades, and after all, he hasn't really entered high society!
There are more plutocrats in the United States, more invisible plutocrats, and countless powerful, entrenched family forces.
This is the United States, the number one country in the world!
A mere newcomer who has just been on the scene for more than a year, and whose weight in their decades of political career is not worth mentioning, is the confidence of politicians in the first country.
These people are more focused on the international world, and they usually talk about international events when they meet!
Of course, the affairs of the United States are international affairs......
Sean?
Take your time, lad.
These are the old-school people, who are experienced and well-informed, and who have seen too many geniuses rise and fall in their decades of political careers, and only those who have stood the test of time and finally stayed will be recognized by them.
It is precisely because of their rich experience and knowledge that they are so conservative, stubborn, and high-minded.
They stubbornly trust their own experience and judgment, and disdain to be shocked by people or things, because those who are easily shaken and not firm enough have been eliminated.
And it is these experiences that have allowed them to survive decades and come to this day tell them that in such a short time, there are no storms to toss.
Until today, he didn't find out until he had someone sort out all the information about Sean and didn't find out until he took a serious look at it.
In just two years, this person outside their gaze, this person outside the traditional industry, suddenly became a behemoth.
Even if he had risen to prominence without experiencing any major tests, it was so big that it was tricky for all of them.
Brewster Jesse took a deep breath and calmed himself down, he had been in the crosshairs of life and death over the years, and he knew what to do in the face of such a thing.
After taking a deep breath for more than ten minutes, confirming that he had completely calmed down, Brewster Jesse looked through the information behind him again.
