Chapter 310 Chapter 311 I'll give you my head!(1/2)
Why was it so shocking? What happened?" Seeing Jack laughing like this, he walked into the room.
After Jack greeted Holkina and Livermore, he followed me and walked in.
"Boss, this matter is quite serious. I just got the news from my subordinates." Jack whispered.
The "subject" he said refers to another intelligence agency that is different from the factory guards. I gave them a name called "Inner Bureau". If Carlo's factory guards are mainly external, then Jack's "Inner Bureau" is internal. Now all the important figures of DreamWorks are under their surveillance. This is a measure I had to take after the last Shanlige incident.
When I heard Jack say that the news was obtained from the internal situation, my face suddenly became solemn.
The internal affairs generally don’t have a lot of news like the factory guards, but as long as there is any news, it will definitely not be a good thing. Looking at Jack’s nervous look, my heart becomes heavier.
"Jack, tell me, what the hell is it? Is there something wrong with someone in our company?" I asked.
Jack frowned and said, "Boss, there is no problem with the people in our company, but there is currently someone who is threatened by the Akado family."
"The threat of the Akado family? Jack, you're not kidding. The bitches raised by the Akado family have been beaten by my second brother so hard that they can't fight back. And. The people in our company are basically under the protection of the factory guards, how could they be threatened?" Jack's words made me feel a little funny.
But Jack did look serious: "Boss, at first I doubted the authenticity of this news, so I went there a few times and found out that it was really like this."
"Oh. Then tell me clearly what's going on, and who is threatened? What kind of threat?" I sat on the chair and took a deep breath.
"Humbrey Bogart." Jack said word by word as he looked at me.
"Who?" I sat up straight: "Humbrey Bogart?! I heard it right?"
Jack nodded: "Yes, it's Humphrey Bogart. Five days ago, one of my subordinates told me that he found Humphrey Bogart going out alone to a restaurant in downtown Los Angeles at night, with a nervous expression."
"He took the restaurant in downtown Los Angeles in the middle of the night?" I crunched and shook my head.
I know Bogart's personality. This guy doesn't look like Cary. Grant is a night owl and becomes extremely excited at night. On the contrary, Bogart doesn't like going out to do things at night. He usually reads books or listens to music in his room at night. Sometimes he goes downstairs to the yard and chats with people in the company. In addition, we are extremely nervous about filming during this period, so he goes to a restaurant in downtown Los Angeles in the middle of the night. This doesn't look like his style.
"Yes, he went alone in the middle of the night. And not for food, he sat there alone for more than an hour and then hurriedly left," Jack added.
"You mean he came out of DreamWorks alone, and then went to a restaurant in downtown Los Angeles alone for more than an hour and came back without doing anything?" The more I heard it, the more confused I became.
Why did he go to the restaurant if he didn't do anything?
"Can he meet someone who didn't come later?" Holkina reminded from the side.
Jack smiled slightly: "I thought so at the beginning, but my subordinates told me that Bogart didn't look like he was waiting for someone. Although he was a little nervous when he entered the store, he was still calm overall. But when he left the ground, he seemed to see a ghost, his face turned pale and his whole body was trembling. My subordinate followed him into the restaurant. He told me that there was no one at all at the restaurant that night. From beginning to end, no one had ever approached him except the waiter who walked up to him and asked him to order dishes."
"This is strange, how could his expression change so much?" Even Livermore, who always claimed to be smart, was in trouble at this time.
I played with the cup in my hand and said, "Can it be that waiter did something, right?"
"Waiter? What can the waiter do? They just handed Bogart a menu. Bogart wouldn't be scared like that because of the menu." Holkina said with great certainty.
I chuckled, "Holkina, your words make sense, good. With Bogart's personality, a menu can't scare him at all, but what if it's not a menu?"
Under my meaningful gaze, Holkina and Livermore called out at the same time: "There is a problem with the menu?!"
"The boss is right, it's because there is something wrong with the menu." Jack looked at me on the side, his eyes lit up.
"What's that if it's not a menu?" Holkina asked curiously.
Jack smiled proudly: "After I received the news from my subordinates, I thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out. Finally, I focused my attention on the waiter. Later, I went to the restaurant myself and secretly asked a foreman in the restaurant. When I took out the photos taken by my subordinate and asked the foreman, he said that there was no such waiter in the restaurant."
"Then... that waiter pretended to be a lie?!" Holkina didn't think of this, and she looked surprised.
"So I'm sure that Bogart's expression changed so much before and after was because of the menu, there must be something on it. But because the waiter was pretending to be a place, we couldn't get the menu, so we didn't know what it was on it." Jack said regretfully.
"How did you know later that it was people from the Akado family who attacked Bogart?" I asked.
Jack shook his head a little ashamed: "This is a coincidence. Since that day, I have sent more people to monitor Bogart's every move, trying to dig out who the person who was the one who was in contact with him. But for the next two days, you were busy making movies. Bogart had no chance to leave DreamWorks, so we were a little disappointed, but one night he went out again in the middle of the night, but this time he went to the city center of Los Angeles, but the Roman Holiday Inn."
"Rome Holiday Hotel? What did he do there?!" I couldn't help laughing and crying.
If the Imperial Hotel is a top-notch entertainment venue, then the Roman Holiday Hotel next to it is the most carnal "lewd nest" in the entire city of Los Angeles. It is not as elegant as the Imperial Hotel, nor is it that elegant. Those who run this hotel know that if it is more elegant than the Imperial Hotel, it is definitely not a match.
We take the special route, which is women and eroticism.
Ninety-nine percent of the people who go to the Roman Holiday Hotel are looking for women. The women here have all kinds of skin colors, ages and nationalities. As long as you have money, you can play whatever you want. This place is the favorite of Stendburg and Gans. I believe that they go, I believe that they go, Stiller, I believe that I even say that Griffith goes, but I believe that Bogart will go, even if I beat me to death, I don’t believe that I believe that I will go.
What this guy hates the most is this kind of place. It is even more difficult to get him in than to pull an elephant in, but this guy actually went to the Roman Holiday Hotel, and it was in the middle of the night, so I was convinced.
"That night, I rushed over and found out that Bogart was going to meet someone, a boss, someone you know." Jack looked at me and kept him in a silence.
"I don't know anyone from the Akado family except for the Paveni Akado who was beaten to death by me. I have never seen Tony Akado before. Who would it be?" I asked.
Jack smiled and said, "I was surprised and shocked when I saw this person, but he was not from the Akado family, but Floyle."
"Floyle? Are you talking about Floyle, the owner of the Royal Film Company under Mutual Aid Company?!" Livermore said in surprise.
Jack nodded.
"How could Floyle get involved?" My head was completely big, and suddenly I remembered a question: "Jack. Didn't you just tell me that the person who threatened Bogart was from the Akado family? Why did Floyle emerge?"
Jack said with unsatisfactory words: "Floyle is just the one who hits the front-end, he is a sarcastic person."
"The person who stood before the fight? What does it mean?" Holkina seemed to have heard something.
"Floyler was a representative of the mutual aid company to negotiate with Bogart. He was sent by someone else to bribe Bogart. He should have proposed some generous conditions to him to promise them to do something. But Bogart got angry on the spot and seemed to have not agreed. At this time, the black-faced person came out." Jack revealed the answer bit by bit.
"The person who sang the black face, could it be Tony Akado himself?" Having said this, I almost understood what happened.
It seems that some people want to use Bogart to do something for them. Of course, the goal of this is that I am DreamWorks. These guys are gifted first and then soldier, and they will give some sweets first. Floyler appears as the second-ranked Mutual Aid Company. If I guess correctly, I must have told Bogart that if he did this for them, then Mutual Aid Company will sign Bogart as their actor and support it. Mutual Aid Film Company, as the boss of the second-ranked Movie Company, is already more capital than DreamWorks. In addition, they have received capital injection from the Rockefeller Consortium. I think their strength has actually reached the first level now. Signing contracts with such a film company is something that Hollywood actors dream of, and they are not moved by such conditions. It seems that I have not misunderstood this guy's character.
Since the sweetness doesn't work, there is only one way left. If you work hard, it is naturally the specialty of the Akado family. In this case, Tony Akado, nicknamed "Blood Hand", is the most appropriate thing.
Jack nodded vigorously: "The boss said it's right. The next person to come out is Tony Akado himself."
"Then Bogart will not be in any danger, right?" Livermore asked.
Jack shook his head: "These guys want Bogart to do things for them, so they won't attack Bogart for the time being. Tony Akado is very polite to Bogart. The two of them talked for a long time. Bogart kept his head down and ignored Tony Akado, and it was not until Tony Akado took out something that Bogart was extremely frightened."
"What's it?" asked Holkina.
Jack smacked his lips: "I didn't see clearly what it was, because I was very far away from them at the time, and it seemed like a photo."
"Can Bogart be frightened by a single photo?" Holkina was a little disbelief.
I said happily: "What's the matter? Henry Albert is quite arrogant, but he lowered his head on a few photos. Jack, have you found out that photo and the conditions they put forward to Bogart?"
Jack shook his head: "After Bogart showed the photo at Tony Akado, he seemed to neither refuse nor agree. Boss, if I guess correctly, Boss should have asked Tony Akado and others to ask him to consider it. It seems that Tony Akado and Floyle also agreed to his request, and then Bogart left the Roman Holiday Hotel. Afterwards, I sent someone to investigate the matter, but there was no result at all, and I couldn't find out what they wanted Bogart to do. Later, I spent a lot of money to bribe a waiter in charge of the relevant services of the Roman Holiday Hotel that day. He told me that he saw the photo, which was an artistic photo of a very beautiful woman. This is all I know."
"A very beautiful woman's artistic photo?" I pondered for a moment and stopped talking.
He didn't surrender to Bogart's sweetness before, and Tony Akado was frightened when he took a photo like this, and there was only one explanation: the woman in the photo must have an unusual relationship with Bogart.
"Did that waiter tell you what the woman looks like, how old she is, and whether the photos looked recently or a long time ago?" My series of questions made Jack smile.
"Boss, I heard from the waiter that the photos don't look like old photos, because Hollywood has been popular recently, such a style of taking artistic photos. The woman on it is only 24 or 25 years old, with blonde hair and blue eyes and beautiful clothes. According to what he said, I think she may be a Hollywood actor." Jack said with confidence.
"I also think I am a Hollywood actor. Ordinary women don't know how to take artistic photos. But what is the relationship between this woman and Bogart?" I touched my chin and looked out of the window in a daze.
"Can they be Bogart's relatives? For example, sisters, etc. If this is the case, it can explain why Bogart was so frightened." Holgina had experienced what it would feel like to fall into the hands of her enemies, so this was the first thing she thought of.
"It shouldn't be." I thought for a moment and ruled out Holgina's reasoning: "I seem to have heard Bogart talk about family. His father is a doctor and is busy in the hospital all day, and his mother is a fashion writer and painter, and a strong woman, so they don't want many children. Bogart is their only one.
There are sisters and no sisters.”
"That's his lover." Holkina was very sure this time.
"I agree with Holgina's point of view. After all, that woman is very beautiful. Bogart is now, so it's time to find a woman who is not young." Jack smiled.
Not only do they think so, but I think so too.
"Then can you find out the true identity of Mrs. Bogart?" I looked up and asked Jack.
Now this woman has become the key to everything. If we can know who she is, we can arrange countermeasures in a targeted manner. I am sure that this poor woman must have fallen into Tony Akado's hands. As long as we can rescue this woman, Bogart will be truly relieved.
Now that "Hollywood Story" has been filmed, Bogart's scenes are very important, and any problems he has will be bad news for me. If he has any accidents, such as being beaten to death by Tony Acardo, then my "Hollywood Story" will be re-made, which is the most unacceptable thing I cannot accept. Moreover, most importantly, Bogart is a future superstar at DreamWorks that I have devoted all my efforts to cultivate. I will never watch him face misfortune.
Jack shook his head: "Boss, to be honest, if you really work hard to investigate, it should be fine to find out who this woman is, but it will take a long time, and the current situation makes me feel too late. Think about it, we don't know what Tony Acardo and Floyle want Bogart to do. If Bogart can't think about it for a moment and agree to them, then before we can find out who this woman is, you will probably be in danger of your life!"
Jack looked at me with red eyes.
As my confidant, he absolutely does not allow anyone to attack me, nor does he allow me to be in any danger.
"Jack. What do you mean is that Tony Akado and the others may make Bogart attack the boss?" Holkina said in surprise.
Jack shrugged: "From the beginning, I guessed that there is nothing impossible. The boss has encountered a shaman more than once or twice. Since the last time these bitch raised him to install bombs in the camera and did not kill the boss, why can't they let Bogart kill the boss this time? Besides, Bogart is the actor that the boss likes, and he will be filmed all day long, and the boss will not be at all wary of him. Such people are naturally the best candidates to take the boss's life without knowing it. Even if something goes wrong, with Bogart as a contracted actor in DreamWorks, Floyler and others can easily get out. If I were them, I would choose Bogart."
Jack's words made Livermore nodded repeatedly. I also thought it was true that his analysis was wrong. This style of secretly taking action was very similar to Tony Acardo's style.
Jack looked at me and continued, "Boss, I think the most important issue now is no longer the woman's problem, nor Bogart's problem, but your own life safety. Tony Akado's ultimate goal is to get rid of you, and the rest are simply trivial things for them. They can use any method for this goal. So I think we have to take action now, otherwise you will be in danger. If you have a few things, then DreamWorks will be over."
As soon as my safety was involved, Jack became anxious.
"Then what do you think we should do now?" I was not as anxious as him. It was not easy for those people to want my life, and I was not worried about being in danger. There is another most important reason, that is, I believe that Bogart is a person, he is not the kind of person without conscience.
"Boss, I think we have two ways now. But I just don't know which one is better?" Jack became embarrassed.
"Tell me, let's talk about it, let's talk about it." I laughed loudly, picked up the teacup and took a sip of the tea.
Jack sat on the table, dipped in water and drew three circles on the table, and pointed to the three circles and said, "Boss, the situation is very strange now. The relationship between DreamWorks and the Akado family, Mutual Aid Company, Kodak Company and even Rockefeller Consortium is like these two circles on the left and right. It becomes a system alone, and no one can do anything about anyone. Kodak and we are two roads running cars. Mutual Aid Company and DreamWorks are both Hollywood film companies, but DreamWorks
The company of the factory's prestige and strength today dare not do anything. The only Akado family that can attack us is now suppressed by Mr. Boggy's Burbank Party and cannot raise their heads. They are simply a bastard. So the only way they can think of to deal with you is to use an intermediary and the circle in the middle to achieve it indirectly. This person is Bogart, so if you take action, you have to start with him. As long as you take Bogart, we will have no problem."
Jack analyzed that after receiving the approval of Holkina and Livermore, I also signaled him to continue.
"How to take Bogartel and not let him do something that is unfavorable to your dream factory, there are two ways at present. The first method is the most convenient and easiest way to do it, that is, deal with Bogartel. Whether it is house arrest or isolate him, as long as he holds him in his hands, he will not be able to attack the boss alone."
"No, this is absolutely not possible." Before Jack finished speaking, I immediately shook my head.
To be continued...
