Chapter 7: Boss, You're a Negro Friend

Rick Luthor devoted himself to the preparation and production of the program on BT TV, although Tommy's program ideas made him feel a little scary when he first heard it, but he quickly calmed down, there was no fuss, this kind of program appeared in other countries is surprising, and it can only be said that it can be said to be taken for granted that it happened in the United States.

After all, there is even an adult reality show in this country where male guests can sleep three female guests in one night, and there are large-scale children's firearms science shows sponsored by the National Rifle Association and weapons manufacturers, etc., all of which sound more shameless than Tommy's ideas.

But what Rick didn't expect was that when he made himself try to accept Tommy's ideas and try to implement them perfectly, Tommy appeared in front of him with a straight face.

"What have you been doing lately? Rick? Tommy walked into the day studio rented by BT TV with a gloomy face, looked at Rick Luthor, who was staring at the workers inside, and asked.

Rick spread his hands blankly and looked at Tommy with some confusion: "What did I do?" It's just the preparation and arrangement of the program, interviewing the program staff and other jobs, what else can you do? ”

"The three black women you interviewed not long ago came to the door and said that you had done something to them, and that you had verbally harassed them, and that you wanted to demand compensation, or send us to court." Tommy's eyes narrowed slightly, staring at Rick, as long as the red curly in front of him did not give him a satisfactory answer, he was ready to throw him to the court and leave him to fend for himself, the nascent BT TV station, could not bear this scandal of harassing black women.

When the rest of the studio heard Tommy's words, they all stopped working and subconsciously looked at Rick Luthor, the central figure of the incident.

Rick's expression was dazed, then abrupt, and finally relieved, and he smiled disdainfully, "How is that possible, Tommy?" You know that I have been working for many years, and I have seen all kinds of women, and even if I am hungry and thirsty, I will not be able to make such a mistake at work. ”

"I think so too, otherwise what you see will not be me, but the dismissal notice prepared by the TV station for you." Tommy tapped his forehead lightly with his fingers, "Now, give me an effort to remember, what did you do to those women?" ”

"I asked them to interview the weather girls, and that's it, I didn't even know them before, they just met during the interview." Rick spoke.

Weather girl, is the host of the weather show, generally speaking, each TV station will try to choose a beautiful enough host to host their own weather program, so that for the vast majority of TV stations, although they can't compete with large TV networks in the wonderful self-made program, but at least they can win some audience favor in the appearance of the weather program.

"During the individual interview, I would chat with her first, and then let her stand up, turn around in place, and let her smile with a strong enough affinity for me, and if the other person didn't do a good job, I would gently point my fingers at her facial muscles to remind her how big the arc of the smile should be." Rick was afraid that he would not be able to speak clearly, and even tapped his finger on his face and said to Tommy:

"That's it, it's a little bit of it."

"Give me the information they submitted." Tommy said with a blank face.

Rick turned around and rummaged through a nearby cabinet and handed Tommy a stack of folders, "The top three." ”

"Wow, it's all black babes, look at those breasts and buttocks, it's so tempting, this is the photo that should be submitted to the employer for the interview? It's a photo of an entertainment company soliciting customers. Tommy picked up a picture of three black girls and looked at it.

"I didn't say that kind of thing during the interview, with all due respect, boss, your words at the moment are more like verbal harassment." Hearing Tommy's comment on seeing the photo, Rick said next to him.

Tommy glanced at Rick, "Have you ever been in this kind of trouble-seeking situation before?" ”

"A little movie actress with a lot of life? Do you think I've touched her face, she's going to trouble me? Rick said with a shrug.

"So these black women think they're trying to blackmail a guy from a new TV station and a white interviewer." Tommy didn't even finish reading the three women's texts before he said to Rick: "Of course I trust you, keep working, I'll help you solve these troubles, don't let these little problems affect your enthusiasm for work." ”

"How much compensation do they need before they are willing to sign the settlement document and promise to keep it secret forever?" Rick asked Tommy.

"Twenty thousand, thirty thousand, and another fifty thousand." Tommy took out a cigarette and lit it, and said absentmindedly: "Add up to 100,000 yuan, touch your face, you have to pay 100,000 yuan, this business is really good, if we don't agree, they will definitely find a way to find a lawyer to make trouble, which is enough to deal a devastating blow to the reputation of our newly opened TV station, not to mention that the amount is not large, right?" Everyone thinks that we will pay obediently. ”

"I'm sorry, Tommy, but I promise to pay attention to the wording and actions of the interview in the future." Hearing Tommy's words, Rick thought he was going to spend money in exchange for the other party's silence, and lowered his head with some guilt and said, "It's my fault." ”

Tommy patted Rick on the shoulder, "Focus on your work and leave the trouble to me." ”

After speaking, he looked at the others: "Focus on your work, everyone, it's okay." ”

Tommy held the information of the three women in his hand, turned around and walked out of the studio, George, his bodyguard who was waiting for him in the tea party in the distance, immediately got up and walked over, Tommy raised his head slightly to look at the big man: "Let Mr. Page wait for me at my house, I need him to work overtime." ”

"Yes, Mr. Hawke." When George heard Tommy's words, he immediately picked up the phone and dialed Page's number.

……

Beverly hills.

Tommy turned on the TV, looked at the CBS news talk show, and said to Sophia next to him:

"Before Delia found a suitable black lawyer, you asked the Stanford White Shoes alumni to run a firm and arrange for the lawyer to contact these three black girls, which shows that we at BT TV attach great importance to this kind of employee harassment of women, the harasser has been suspended, and the TV station has also begun to conduct an internal investigation and other, in short, to see if sincerity can move these three women, dispel the idea of looking for trouble, if pure sincerity is not attractive, let the lawyer negotiate with them on the price, in short, Delay the time, convince them that we value their feelings, and are trying to come up with a compensation plan so that they don't make a big deal out of it. ”

"Delay?" After listening to Tommy's words, Sophia asked, "You don't want to really reconcile with the other party?" ”

"This is blackmail, a white man who touches the black man's face in a guided way, is it harassment? Black people have become really expensive in the past few years, a hundred years ago, they cut off their hands and feet, and they have to thank the white lord for his mercy and sparing them a life. Tommy scolded unhappily:

"The information of these three women shows that they all have previous experience working in other small TV stations, just like experienced prostitutes, who feel that our TV station is the first brother of the first call* and cares about reputation, so they try to knock on a penny, the price is not high, and it is not low, just like a small hole in my tooth that was pulled out by a tooth decay, and tooth decay does not make me feel painful, but when I want to completely ignore its existence, it will also remind me of its existence with the sour feeling of egg pain."

Mr. Page, dressed in a smoky gray jacket, walked into the living room under the guidance of the servant: "Mr. Hawke, George said you wanted to see me. ”

"That's right, Mr. Page, Dorothy, prepare a drink for Mr. Page." Tommy finished speaking to Page first, and then looked at Sophia: "Go ahead, do as I say, find a lawyer and the other party to delay time." ”

Sophia stood up and left, and Tommy beckoned Paige to sit down, smiling at the seemingly innocuous old fellow.

In 1978, this seemingly harmless old man shot and killed seven black people, four of whom were shot in the head in full view of the black community, even if they threw away their weapons and raised their hands.

Of course, he didn't kill blacks at will, he killed members of the Black United Vanguard and suspected members.

The Black United Vanguard, the Black Liberation Army, and the New African Republic are black radical paramilitary organizations in the United States composed of the remnants of the Black Panther Party, and they have carried out many illegal activities in order to so-called arouse the black people, including armed robbery of escort vehicles to save black prisoners, shooting police stations, massacring drug dealers to rob stolen money, causing explosions, and so on.

The Long Beach Police Department received a bomb package in '78, and Sheriff Lott Page was lucky not to be blown up, but his partner ended up with no bones.

After the United Black Vanguard triumphantly declared responsibility for the operation, Page drove his men to the black neighborhood in North Long Beach, where he knew that there were some Black United Vanguard members who told the police department to investigate, but in fact he didn't want to investigate at all, he just wanted to kill the who blew up his partner.

Then there were two black underage blacks under the age of eighteen in that community, a black woman, thinking that the white people had been frightened, and shouted at the police officers who arrived and ridiculed the white policemen that they deserved to be blown up, and Paige did not hesitate, and the three black men were simply shot and killed by him on the grounds of threatening the police, obstructing the investigation, suspected of possessing weapons, and suspected members of the Black United Vanguard.

After being surrounded by the police, the four real members of the Black United Vanguard in the community immediately threw away their weapons, raised their hands and surrendered, thinking that they were nothing more than going to prison, but the four people were also rewarded with a bullet in their heads.

The reason given by the lawyer in court was that the deceased's hands were raised too low, that Page was too old and faint to see clearly, and that he was in a dangerous black community, that he was emotionally stressed, and that his finger muscles spasmed and caused the gun to go off, which caused the tragedy.

Eventually, the court argued over the case, but later, after the Black United Pioneers shot and killed two more police officers at the New York Police Department, the wind turned around, and all the dead were defined as members of the Black United Pioneers, and finally Page was defined by the court as suffering from severe mental illness due to years of intense work, and was sentenced to five years of probation, 600 hours of community activities, and leaving the police to be discharged.

After this battle, Page became famous in the black community, and when the court verdict was not yet given, Page drove the police car to the black community as if nothing happened, hoping to kill all the in the jurisdiction who were making trouble, but unfortunately, all the black people already knew that although this old white guy had poor eyesight and was mentally stressed and unable to adapt to the high-intensity work of the police, he could rely on the old dizzy eyesight to accurately hit the black man's forehead, and he didn't want to be killed by his finger muscle spasms, It's best to see him close to you as soon as you put your hands up and get on your knees.

After all, this butcher even kills black minors, and there is no humanity.

The first thing Tommy did after hiring Page was to get him to donate to the police force, and he got the title of Honorary Sheriff of Long Beach, although the honorary police are not real police officers, but they have some obligations and powers, such as the power to stand up and stop them in the event of conflicts.

"These three black men extorted 100,000 yuan from us." Tommy handed the three women's profiles to Paige.

Paige took it suspiciously, then looked at Tommy, "You want me to kill them?" ”

"No, no, no, how could we do such a thing, Mr. Page." Hearing Paige's words, Tommy laughed:

"Didn't we set up a TV station to give a voice to black people? How can you kill black people, you are terrible to think. ”

"So what? What do you need me to do? Page laughed too, apparently noncommittal about Tommy's original intention of starting the TV station.

Tommy took out a cigarette and handed it to the other party: "It's nothing, I let the lawyer drag the time, I hope that during this time of contact and negotiation, you can see if there is a way to put three women as funders or supporters of illegal terrorist organizations such as the Black United Vanguard, the Black Liberation Army, and so on, and then we will sue them for blackmail, and the two will add up to let them go to prison for a long vacation, and they will actually blackmail Rick, saying that he harassed them, and I must make them understand that they want to make money for the rest of their lives, They can only rely on being harassed by men, and they have to pay for their smiling faces, and they have collusion with black terrorist organizations, and no TV station will give them a job. ”

"We have the details of these three women, maybe we can use them to design a botched anonymous donation? As for donors, I prefer the New African Republic, a black terrorist organization, which is more radical than the other two organizations, and it is easier to recognize, as long as they donate to support their black people, they will be considered their own nationals, but once they make accusations against them, they will also find a way to teach these fellow citizens who have betrayed their skin color a stern lesson. Paige took the cigarette, thought for a moment, and came up with an idea.

Tommy nodded with satisfaction: "That's a good idea, just like these three black people want to destroy our TV station, and when they want to try to prove their innocence, when the court publicly recognizes the New African Republic as a black terrorist organization, the other party will greet our three black female compatriots on our behalf." ”

"Understood, I'll get this done as soon as possible." Page picked up the three women's profiles and walked outside.

Dorothy came over with a glass of juice at this time, handed it to Peppa, and said to Tommy, "Mr. Hawke, your black bodyguard is outside, and he wants to talk to you about today's harvest and convey to you the thanks of many people." ”

"Don't let him in, let him go...... Forget it, he's different from the others, let him wait for me in the backyard, he can't go into my living room, but he can go to the backyard. Tommy was going to tell Martin to go back to the dorm and wait for him, but he hesitated and changed the venue to an outdoor one.

In the backyard, seeing the boss coming over with a smile, Martin, who looked a little tired, said excitedly: "Boss, this is definitely the most meaningful day in my life, everyone is grateful to you, it's true." ”

"They should be grateful to you, after all, you are the one who helped those low-level black people get haircuts for free, not me." Tommy spoke.

"But if you don't pay me a sum of money, I won't go, I'm not as great as you." Martin said in a sincere tone: "You are a friend of the blacks, you should really look at the smiles on the faces of those black people." ”

Tommy looked at Paige, who got into the car and left in the distance, and said in an emotional tone: "If I want to be worthy of this great title, I still have a lot of work to do." ”
