In fact, Donald is somewhat similar to Hall, he is also the third generation of the rich family to break through the family's success.

But there is a big difference in the essence of the two, the former's grandfather wandered alone across the ocean from Europe to the New World of North America, selling horse meat, pimping, gambling and pumping...... Rely on the operation of "low" businesses to complete the primitive accumulation.

So that his parents were able to enter the real estate industry, undertake government residential apartment orders, and work diligently to earn hard-earned money to promote the wealthy class.

It was only in Donald's own generation that he was qualified to try commercial real estate, entertainment, gambling cities, political campaigns, and other ways, trying to transform from a nouveau riche into a capitalist family with social status and prestige.

And the efforts of these three generations are only the beginning of the Hall family.

More than 100 years ago, when the first Baron Hall faced the blood-stained armor of Napoleon's cavalry regiment on the heights of Mount St. John, Donald's ancestors were sweating through the vineyards.

So he couldn't understand that Hall actually gave up the dollar for the sake of dignity, and the deal between the two parties to promote the casino was destined to be unsuccessful.

"No counter-offer for $200,000." Donald emphasized according to his own logic.

Inviting a celebrity to the casino to play for 200,000 carriages and horses is rich enough, and he thinks that the young man in front of him wants to ask for a sky-high price, full of old-school aristocratic arrogance.

Hall shook his head and said, "Skip the topic, maybe I'll be a guest at your casino, but not because of money." ”

“…… yes, then I have to doubt the authenticity of tonight's chance encounter. The smile on Donald's face disappeared, and his eyes looked tentatively.

"It is said that you ran in the primary election for mayor of New York last year and lost the party, and then you quickly changed your attitude and tried to join the reform party. Some of the old Elephant Party men in New York take this as a joke and despise you as an unscrupulous businessman who can't afford to make a profit. ”

Hall paused slightly, and said with some emotion in an inexplicable tone: "I used to only believe in benefits like you. Until I met a martyr who taught me with practical actions that profit is not the only thing. ”

"It sounds like a sad story, but what else can you believe besides profit, the San Francisco 49ers football team?" Donald's tone sneered.

"I trust the New York Yankees more."

Without speculating for more than half a sentence, Hall had no intention of arguing with the Golden Retriever Lion King, and tonight's chance encounter was really unplanned.

But from a certain point of view, it is also inevitable, and his current social circle is so big, and some people will meet sooner or later.

The atmosphere fell silent, Donald adjusted his mood and said: "I never break my promise, you bet on horses at will tonight, forget it if you lose, have fun." ”

After that, he prepared to leave the box.

Hall was slightly stunned, and then said thoughtfully: "How about we change the way we bet?" Bet $200,000 on which foot you walk out of the box door from where you're standing. ”

"Are you kidding me?" Donald's face was full of disbelief.

Connery sat on the sidelines and paused, tempted to say that there was a difference between gambling and charity.

"I'm betting on my right foot." Hall responded categorically.

According to the shallow cognition in his memory, the Golden Retriever Lion King doesn't look like a person who respects his promises, so he might as well verify it for himself, and the price is only 200,000 US dollars.

Some people will meet sooner or later, and some things will always be involved sooner or later. This "future president" is very eager to enter politics, and he has been jumping up and down for joy throughout the 90s......

"As you wish, I'll bet on my right foot."

Donald walked out of the box.

Connery longed to put a ruler in his eye to measure the distance between each step he took, and counted silently in his mind, left, right, left, right...... He's a little smaller, he's cheating!

The words were about to blurt out when Donald opened the box door and took the final step with his right foot.

"You won." He announced the result with a calm expression.

Hall stood up and spread his hands: "You see, it turns out that some things can be higher than benefits, isn't it?" ”

Donald smiled knowingly, "For example, friendship." ”

Just when the two were about to stage a drama of heroes cherishing heroes and not knowing each other.

A middle-aged white man dressed in formal clothes appeared at the door of the box, combing the sweaty hair on his head, taking out a business card from the crumpled pocket of his clothes, and introducing himself very quickly:

"Is it Mr. Hugo Hall, it's a pleasure to meet you, and allow me to introduce myself briefly. I'm Michael Ovitz, President of Innovative Talent Agency, and cAA has the best talent agency business in Hollywood, and I will be one of the indispensable partners of Raiden Pictures! ”

Donald wanted to strangle this inopportune idiot, and secretly thought that he wanted to maintain dignity in front of the British son, and took a step back to return to the box, turning his head to his followers and instructing, "Fork out." ”

"Hey, you can't do that, let me finish! Lord Hall, do you want a bunch of Wall Street financial workers to be at the helm of a film company for a long time? And I, Michael Ovitz, am the most professional agent in Hollywood, and no one knows Hollywood better than me, and no one ......"

Michael Ovitz tears out his throat and shouts his true intentions regardless of his image.

He's fed up with endless service to brainless stars, he wants to be in a film giant so much that he really has power, he dreams of it!

The young nobleman from England is hoping that he has reason to miss!

The racetrack farce is on, and on the other side, in the mansion of Beverly Hills.

Lou Coman fumbled to turn on the light, and said with a wrinkle on the bridge of his nose, "Suck less leaves, if you have already made a will, I won't say anything." ”

"Brother Childe refuses to have dinner with me?"

Herbert Allen Jr. automatically ignored the advice of his old friend, and raised his arm uncomfortably to block out the light.

Lou Coman said with mixed meaning: "His real purpose was to encourage me to do it all over Columbia Pictures, to express his willingness to be a white knight. That is, he does not align with your interests. ”

Little Herbert fell silent, yawned and kneaded his eyebrows: "In this way, he and your interests are the same." ”

"I'd rather trust you." Lou Coman replied against his will.

He would have the most to gain from Hall's proposal, but Herbert Jr.'s influence at Columbia Pictures was deep-rooted, and he knew how much control he had over it.

"Huh." Little Herbert chuckled, "Koeman, do you know what your biggest flaw is?" Cowardice will always be one step away from you. If you dare to be honest and wait for the price to sell, I am willing to treat you with more respect. ”

"When Sony buys Columbia Pictures, you're going to be one of the most powerful people in Hollywood, and that's the biggest price I've ever offered you."

Lou Coman was speechless, selling himself for a good price, damn Fack, is he a commodity?!

Hall's sowing discord began to ferment......
