"Special intentions? No, I'm sure you're thinking too much, I just want to make a distinction between the new generation of mutants and the old ones, Wolverine and Magneto are both male, don't you think it's cool that the successor becomes female? ”

In the study, old Logan stared at Jamie talking on the computer screen.

His instincts told him that Jamie was 100% lying, but he couldn't see through the need for the other party to lie about such a thing.

"What do you think?"

Old Logan turned his head to look at his second son Kendall and younger son Roman beside him.

"Sif did a good job and got what we wanted from Jamie Dutton."

Kendall spoke first.

He followed the advice of the wise men around him and decided to present in front of his father the image of a good son who loved his brothers and sisters.

Old Logan looked at Kendall with such an expressionless face that Kendall couldn't say what Kwasif had already thought about.

"Uh...... I think—"

Old Logan's patience had run out.

"Alright, shut up, Roman, come on!"

Roman's expression perked up, and at the same time he glanced at the unlucky second brother unexpectedly.

Thank you for helping me eliminate a wrong answer!

"We've all been fooled, and it's all been a hoax devised by Jamie Dutton!"

Roman speaks amazingly.

Not only did Kendall look at him with wide eyes in disbelief, but even old Logan couldn't help but show a little surprise in his eyes.

And that's exactly what Roman wants.

"Kendall, do you remember when we first came into contact with Jamie Dutton?"

Kendall's face was full of doubts, but he replied without hesitation:

"At Bart Bass's wedding."

Roman pointed hard at him.

"That's right, at that time, my dad asked us to talk to him about the film and television rights of "Percy Jackson."

"If it is another author, either they will directly open a high price, or they will ask for more say in the production process of film and television dramas, but Jamie Dutton chose the third way, using his own copyright in exchange for the copyright of Marvel superheroes in our hands."

"At the time, we couldn't guess what Jamie Dutton really meant, and in the end we could only explain it by saying that he was a fan of superhero comics."

"But one thing we all overlooked, it was because of this collaboration that Jamie Dutton became associated with superhero movies."

"By exchanging his own rights for the copyright of "Iron Man", Jamie Dutton successfully established the image of a superhero comic book fan, which led to Warner and Universal, once they had a superhero movie project in their hands, Jamie Dutton would be the first thing to think of."

Hearing this, Kendall couldn't help but interrupt:

"So you're telling us all this stuff just to prove that Jamie Dutton's self-marketing is successful?"

Roman was speechless and held his forehead.

"I'm a warning to everyone! In my opinion, the superhero cinematic universe is a complete hoax. ”

"We could have done the X-Men trilogy step by step, but after Sif went to Jamie Dutton, our plan suddenly became ten films."

"Jamie Dutton just bragged about the concept of a mutant cinematic universe and took $1.5 million in consulting fees and $7 million in script remuneration from us, and the whole process felt like we were being led by the nose by the other side like fools."

Kendall was really shocked.

Roman: This is tantamount to a total repudiation of the results of Sif Sif's efforts.

Seeing that old Logan was silent, Kendall's heart began to waver.

Should he continue to maintain the image of a good big brother who is friendly and united with his brothers and sisters, or should he reject Sif's efforts altogether like Roman.

And most importantly, what would old Logan think?

Just as Kendall's mind was in a hurry, there was a knock on the study door.

Marcia pushed open the door and handed a newspaper to Logan Sr.

"I don't mean to disturb the conversation between your father and son, but I think you should take a look at this first."

With that, he turned and left.

Kendall and Roman's eyes were immediately drawn to the newspaper that Marcia had left behind.

Old Logan picked up his glasses from his desk, unfolded the newspaper and read it.

A few minutes later, the newspaper came to Kendall and Roman, and after the two brothers read it together, Roman looked up excitedly.

"I'll just say that Jamie Dutton has ulterior motives, he instigated us to shoot some mutant movie universe, and the fundamental purpose is to use our hands to suppress the "Bloody Warrior" of the Warriors comics!"

Logan Sr. didn't speak up immediately, but asked Kendall what he thought about it.

Kendall hesitated.

"I think...... Unless it's a coincidence, I don't think Jamie Dutton is taking advantage of us. ”

A hint of disappointment flashed in Old Logan's eyes.

He looked at his two sons and said in a deep voice:

"So what? Do you all think we should tear up our contract with Jamie Dutton or go ahead with the original plan for the X-Men trilogy? ”

Kendall's forward-looking, hesitant personality once again prevailed, and he felt that he didn't need to be so aggressive, and he would come up and overthrow everything.

"We can just find an excuse to delay the start of the project shooting of the mutant cinematic universe, and wait until the release of "Bloody Warrior" to see how the market reacts before making a decision."

As soon as the words fell, Roman's voice rang out.

"No, that's too late, and I think the best way to deal with it is to ignore the mutant cinematic universe and shoot the X-Men trilogy as we originally planned."

Looking at the two sons who were arguing, Logan Sr. knocked the table.

"Alright, you all go out."

Kendall and Roman looked at each other quickly, but finally did not dare to disobey their father's decision.

When the two went out, they happened to meet Marcia and the maid who was following her and preparing to bring coffee to the three of them.

"You're done talking so soon?"

Marcia looked at the two curiously.

Kendall shrugged helplessly and said nothing.

He could clearly feel that his father was not happy with his performance today.

Roman picked up a cup of coffee from the maid's plate and drank it as he walked downstairs.

He wasn't even going to talk to Marcia.

After all, she is not his own mother, and she will share his inheritance in the future.

At this moment, the voice of old Logan came from the study.

"Marcia, call Sif and tell her to come to my study as soon as she returns."

Whether it was Kendall or Roman, who was going downstairs, they were stunned on the spot when they heard this.

So they talk so much in the den, or have they not been able to change the decision of old Logan?

Sif returned home in a hurry.

She was greeted by Roman on the sofa in the first-floor living room, and Kendall, who immediately rose from the armchair by the fireplace.

Without waiting for the three siblings to say hello, Marcia slowly walked down the stairs.

"Your father is waiting for you in the study."

Sif shrugged at Kendall, who was about to speak, turned and walked upstairs.

Study room on the second floor.

Sif pulled out her chair and sat down at her desk.

Old Logan placed the newspaper in front of her.

Sif picked it up and looked at it for a moment, then put it down, and then told Logan Sr. that she had known about it on the way back.

Old Logan asked directly:

"So what do you think about this?"

Sif's replied without hesitation:

"David Messer is at least right, among all the comic book superheroes, the biggest threat to the Bloody Warriors is Wolverine, so he deliberately released the news, suggesting that Jamie is using Weisda to suppress the Warriors comics, causing suspicion within us."

Old Logan followed up and asked:

"Is that your opinion, or is that what Jamie Dutton told you?"

Sif shrugged and generously admitted that he had called Jamie as soon as he saw the news to ask if it was true.

On the phone, Jamie directly admitted that he used Wolverine as the core character of the mutant cinematic universe planning, which did mean to the Warriors comics.

But it's just a coincidence.

Even if it's not for "Blood Warrior", Wolverine is enough to build an indispensable core character in the mutant universe.

The main thing is that Wolverine is too special.

The ability to be immortal and immortal can inherently take on the heavy responsibility of connecting the stories of other mutants.

In addition, Wolverine itself is also the most popular superhero in the X-Men, even if Jamie generously admits that this is "Bloody Warrior" for the Warriors comics, will Weststar Pictures give up this popular superhero and shoot an unpopular superhero?

If Westar Pictures really does this, it is estimated that the executives of Warrior Comics Pictures will wake up laughing in their dreams.

While Logan Sr. and Sif are discussing the mutant cinematic universe, Jamie is on the phone with Ovitz at Rebecca's apartment.

Christmas is in two days.

When the time comes, Jamie will return to Yellowstone Ranch with Serena, the real girlfriend, to reunite with his family.

So Rebecca prepares a "Christmas present" for Jamie in advance.

Unfortunately, before the gift could be "unboxed", it was interrupted by a phone call from Ovitz.

"Vin Diesel's newspaper account of his affair with you is true?"

Jamie glanced at the newspaper Betty had just delivered on the couch.

To be honest, he didn't expect that after being fired from Chuck's bar, Vin Diesel actually went to audition for the leading actor in "Bloody Warrior", and he was selected in one round.

"It's true, it doesn't mean he's telling the truth, it's that Vin Diesel bribed another security guard at the bar, pretended not to know me, and deliberately stopped me when I entered the bar and asked for a body search, trying to get my attention in this way."

"I saw through his tricks, and Chuck fired him when he found out about it."

Ovitz immediately grasped the point of Jamie's words.

"Is the security guard who was bought by Vin Diesel still there?"

"He was also fired afterwards, but people can still find him."

"Great, give me the contact information of that security guard, and I'll go talk to him."

Jamie immediately guessed what Ovitz was up to.

"You want to find that security guard to prove that Vin Diesel lied to the media just to hype himself?"

"What do you think of this?"

"Have you ever thought that he just told a lie in front of the media, is it possible that he has already found the security guard and given the other party a hush money in advance."

"In that case, I'll double!"

"The premise is that the security guard has evidence that Vin Diesel bought him in the first place, otherwise Vin Diesel can completely bite back and say that we bought the security guard to frame him, and in the absence of evidence, the media and the public will always be inclined to believe what the weak person said."

Ovitz on the other end of the line fell silent.

In the absence of conclusive evidence, there will certainly be a war of words between the two sides in the media.

According to the traditional way of playing, whichever side can mobilize more media resources in the end will win.

Although Vin Diesel is just an unknown newcomer, he is now chosen to play the leading role in "Blood Warrior".

The backer behind it became Disney.

On the surface, Vin Diesel broke the news about his holiday with Jamie in the newspaper this time, just to take the opportunity to hype it up.

But no one can guarantee that Vin Diesel did not do this at the behest of others.

If Disney is behind the scenes, Vin Diesel will not necessarily lose this "war of words".

Even if it is a draw, it will be Vin Diesel who takes advantage.

Not only can he use this "war of words" to expand his fame, but he can also do a wave of free publicity for "Bloody Warrior".

After much consideration, Ovitz spoke cautiously.

"So that's it?"

"Of course not, I'll ask people to go to the security guard who was bought by Vin Diesel, hoping that the other party is smart enough that he can secretly leave some evidence when Vin Diesel gives him hush money."

"What if that man isn't as smart as you say?"

"It doesn't matter, because even if I get evidence that Vin Diesel gave him hush money, I don't plan to release it immediately, and I will ask Chuck to make a public statement admitting that it was his idea to fire Vin Diesel and that it has nothing to do with me."

Ovitz on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment, and then realized that Jamie's move was very powerful.

It seems that Chuck is to take the blame, but in fact, this incident will not have much impact on Chuck.

There is not even a need for an explanation.

Originally, Chuck was a playboy who didn't learn anything, and when he saw that the security guard at his bar was not pleasing to the eye, he was fired.

If Vin Diesel continues to hype up this, Chuck can not stop him.

As long as Jamie gets rid of the relationship, Vin Diesel and the Disney behind him can't continue to hype up this matter.

The only thing that Owicz couldn't figure out was that if he could really get evidence of Vin Diesel's hush money for that security guard, why not publish it immediately and make Vin Diesel discredited?

"Because if the evidence is released now, Warriors Pictures will definitely abandon Vin Diesel without hesitation, and I really want to see what Vin Diesel's "Blood Warrior" will look like in the end, is that enough?"
