Chapter 372 Letter from Big Brother Chapter 373 Family Law Serving(1/3)
I couldn't help but be stunned with the letter in my second brother's hand.
Although Corleon has three brothers in his family, I have never met my elder brother. In the past two years, the second brother Baoji has been with me. Therefore, deep down in my heart, the impression of our two brothers depend on each other for life. So now I suddenly heard my second brother say that my elder brother has written to me, and I am a little confused again.
"Really or not?" I took the letter from my second brother.
The second brother laughed and pointed to the letter, "It must be Carl's letter. His word is the ugliest of our three brothers, so it's impossible to make a mistake."
"Brother has never had any news, why did he suddenly write a letter?" I murmured quietly while opening the letter.
The letter is very short, and the ink is as precious as gold, and there is only less than one page of paper.
The title of the letter head shows that the letter was written by the elder brother to his father and mother. The letter greeted his father and mother for his safety, and then talked about me.
"I have seen all the movies that Andre made. His DreamWorks are now famous in the United States, which makes me very happy. Since I was a child, I thought this guy was a piece of material and would definitely be able to make a name for our Corleon family. Now it is true. Tell me for me that Hollywood has always been a place of conspiracy and told him to be very careful. As for Boggy, he is doing well in the arms company now, and asked him to withdraw from the underworld as soon as possible. If you stay here for a long time, you will cause trouble. But don't let it go, just install your own agent in the organization."
My brother seemed very familiar with our situation. After briefly explaining some things, he talked about himself with just a few words: "I am fine now, and there is no need to worry about it. After all, our Corleon family members will do something."
The things written by my elder brother seem to me quite normal, but the last few lines of the letters in the place of the letter made me look a little straight.
"In addition, there may be big moves within the federal government in the management of movies. Andre asked to pay close attention to this action, especially those related to Wall Street, especially the Rockefeller Consortium, to be careful."
After reading this page word by word, I tutted my mouth, shook my head and sighed.
"Second brother, how did you tell us that our situation is so clear? I'm easy to say. After all, you are a public figure now, but your affairs in the Burbank Party and the arms company are all secrets. Most people don't know that, my brother is not in Los Angeles. How could he know clearly?" I looked at my second brother and frowned.
The second brother scratched his head and said, "You can't even think clearly, let alone ask me. You don't know this guy Carl's temper. He is as stubborn as you, and you must do what you decide. With his mind, if you want to inquire about something, it's not easy to get it. Moreover, this letter was sent from Washington, maybe he's already made a comedy now, and I'm very likely to return to my hometown after a while."
The second brother has always been disagreeing with the eldest brother, and his tone is full of irony.
"Second brother, I think some things in my eldest brother's letter are quite reasonable. Now that the Tony Akado family has been eliminated by us, you'd better choose some confidants from the Burbank Party and let them take over. Then gradually withdraw from the Burbank Party and focus on the development of Northrop Company." I read the letter from my eldest brother again, and then carefully stuffed it into the envelope and handed it to my second brother.
The second brother nodded: "I have considered this too. Don't worry, I will start preparing after a while. It will probably take half a year to finish."
Although the underworld is now in power, I know that as the US legal system becomes more and more sound, many of these shameful organizations will be hit hard, and their leaders will end up in miserable consequences. So taking advantage of the current situation, the sooner the second brother will "turn to regular" the better.
"Andre, this is normal in other places, but I always feel a little strange about the following sentences. Look, what Carl said about the federal government coming in may have big moves in film management, and ask you to pay attention to the Rockefeller Consortium. How did he know these things? This is not something that ordinary people can learn." The second brother seemed to have noticed the last few sentences.
I frowned and said, "Second brother, ask me, how can I know about this letter from my elder brother? First, why didn't he send it to me but to my parents. Second, there is no specific address for sending the letter in this letter at all, and even the postmark has been specially processed. Also, what you said, although I can't explain the reason, I always feel that my elder brother's current situation is very unusual."
The second brother laughed: "Don't worry about it, as long as he's fine. He has been mysterious since he was a child. Let's do it well. If he comes back in rags in the future, I will let him drive for me, and then attack him all day long, and exhale the anger that he has been bullied and ridiculed by him for so many years."
My second brother nodded when he said this. Everything about my elder brother is indeed very mysterious to both of us. Instead of guessing, we should take good care of ourselves.
Although the letter from my elder brother was only a few lines and there were many doubts, it made me very happy and also evoked the past of our three brothers in my memory. So we chatted for a long time. Finally, I told me about the cooperation between Northrop and the Ministry of Defense to my second brother and asked him to prepare quickly. The second brother happily agreed.
It was not until after three o'clock in the morning that my second brother got up and said goodbye.
The next day, on December 13th, I only slept for more than three hours, and I took Stenborough and others from about six o'clock to about 11 noon to edit all the few remaining porn films in "Hollywood Story". Then we spent another two hours to modify the movie to finally get the movie done.
The master belt was quickly sent to the third factory in Shanlige, and made a copy, and then I took Stenborough and Gans to drive to Hollywood for review in person.
When I appeared in the lobby of the city government with my copy, Grant, who was standing on the stairs and teasing the little girl, looked at me. The guy walked to my ground step by step, glanced at the box in my hand, squeezed his eyes, and asked mysteriously: "Andre, are you in your hand "Hollywood Story" films!?"
Looking at Grant's anxious look, I smiled and nodded: "What do you think it is not film? Could it be that I would bring a box of money to you to bribe?"
"That's great! That's great!" After hearing this, Grant jumped high, grabbed my box, patted the box hard and said excitedly to me.
But wait until this movie! Go. Go quickly! Review it now!"
"What's the hurry! I'll ask you, is that guy Yutus Cres?" I asked in a whisper, holding Grant's shoulder.
Grant smiled and said, "You ask me where I know, I am not from the Codex Execution Bureau. I just want to watch movies now, and there are so many other things."
"Are Hayes?" I turned Grant like a silence.
Grant pointed to the door of Hayes' office and said, "Why are you angry inside?"
"Angry? Why are you angry?" I wondered.
Grant shrugged: "It seems to be for something to report."
"What report?" I think there may be something weird inside.
Grant breathed a sigh of relief and whispered: "Hais doesn't want to tell me about this. I also found out from someone else. It seems that it was Yutus Clay who submitted a report to the Ministry of Culture of the federal government, saying that Hayes is old now and should retire. Isn't this obviously Yutus Clay who wants to seize Hayes' power."
"Is this a thing?! Is Yutus Clay crazy?" After hearing Grant's words, I couldn't laugh or cry.
As the chairman of the Code Executive Board, Hayes has been doing his best since the first day of the establishment of this organization. Not only has it been admired by Hollywood people, but the federal government's Ministry of Culture is also quite satisfied with his work. Yutus Clay actually directly reported this sad thing to his superiors, and wasn't he looking for a stone to hit him up?
Grant smiled wickedly, "That's not true. I thought so at the beginning, but the result was unexpected."
"Why? The federal government agreed to Yutus Cree's report?!" I opened my eyes wide.
If Hayes retires, the person who takes over him must be Yutus Clay, which is the last thing I want to see.
Grant spread his hands and said, "No, the federal government naturally did not agree to Yutus Clay's report."
I felt relieved: "Why are Hayes angry?"
Grant shook his head and added: "Although the federal government did not agree to Yutus Cree's report, it did not trust Hayes as much as before. And they issued an instruction to suggest that Hayes and Yutus Cree take turns as chairman every year, saying that this is more democratic. Do you think Hayes can't be angry?"
"Take a turn as a chairman every year!? This is what rules do you think of as a bitch??" I became popular when I heard the news and immediately cursed.
Grant looked helpless and took me into Hayes's office.
As soon as I entered the door, I heard Hayes scolding a subordinate. It seemed that he was really angry.
Seeing Grant and I come in, Hayes angrily called the man out and poured me a cup of tea.
"Why, the editing of "Hollywood Story" is over?" Hayes looked at the suitcase I placed at my feet. The anger on his face was gone, and he changed into a reluctant smile.
I nodded and then joked to Hayes: "Sir Chairman, what level can we give this review?"
Hayes sat beside me and smiled and said, "Don't worry about this. Even President Coolidge attended the premiere of "Hollywood Story" in person. The Codex Executive Board will naturally give you a green light."
"That's not necessarily true. With our landbishop here, I feel so happy." A helpless smile appeared on my face.
As soon as Yutus Clay was mentioned, Hayes's face changed color immediately.
"This Italian charlatan has annoyed me." Hayes shook his head in pain.
Hayes is a conservative person who always pays attention to etiquette and never scolds people. Today, he cursed Yutus Clay in front of me and Grant. It seems that the Bishop is really extraordinary.
"Isn't it just taking turns to be the chairman? It's not like you retire, it's okay." I patted Hayes on the shoulder and comforted him.
Hayes said angrily: "I'm not angry with this, you don't know. I always feel that sooner or later, this Code Execution Bureau will be controlled by Yutus Clay, and then we will work hard to establish a great situation. But it will no longer exist."
"Can't you think of something?" Grant and I looked at each other and asked the same question almost in unison.
Hayes showed a smug smile on his face. Seeing his smile, Grant and I felt very happy.
"He doesn't let my life be better, can I make him comfortable?! What he dreams of now is to be the chairman of the Code Executive Board. As long as he controls the institution and holds the censorship of Hollywood movies in his own hands, he can get a lot of benefits, whether in reputation or in interests, but the more he thinks so, I will not let him go. A few days ago, I submitted a report to the Ministry of Culture and spoke to President Coolidge, and they initially agreed to my proposal."
"What proposal?" I asked curiously.
Hayes walked over and closed the office door, and then whispered to me: "I propose that the Ministry of Culture establish an organization that is above the Codex Executive Board, which is in charge of national film work. This organization is tentatively named the National Film Administration. It is the highest authority for American films and is responsible for the management of all things in American films. It is directly affiliated to the Ministry of Culture, and even the Codex Executive Board is just a subordinate agency."
"No way!? If what you said is true, then wouldn't it mean that even our Hollywood city government is under the jurisdiction of the National Film Administration?!" Grant immediately jumped up.
If the National Film Administration was established, there is no doubt that it will be the highest film management agency in the entire United States, with more rights in the hands of the local government than the Codex Executive Board.
Suddenly, I suddenly remembered the words in my elder brother's letter: "There may be big moves in the management of movies within the federal government...". Could it be that the big moves of the federal government refer to the end of this American movie?!
But how will the elder brother know?!
In an instant, my head became bigger.
Just when I was confused, Hayes glanced at Grant and smiled: "It's not just your Hollywood City Government, even major film companies, five associations, Harvey Awards Jury Committee and other film-related organizations must be included in its purview."
"Who sells cakes, wouldn't it be majestic if anyone becomes the director of the National Film Administration of America?" Grant said while wiping the saliva from the corner of his mouth.
Hayes nodded and said, "This is the reason, but the director of the National Film Administration is the place where the president personally appointed him.
I said in the proposal that I must be an American citizen. Others can’t be regarded as Yutus. Clay will definitely not be.”
After saying that, Hayes smiled proudly.
"Gao! Hayes, your trick is indeed high. Once the National Film Administration is established, even if Yutus Clay becomes the director of the Codex Execution Bureau, it is not the time for him to do whatever he wants. I think we would nominate and recommend you to be the director." Grant leaned in with malicious intentions in front of Hayes.
Hayes shook his head: "I don't have that leisure. I just stay in this code enforcement bureau and don't leave. I want to see how capable our bishop is."
"You officials like to build this organization and that organization. It seems that once the National Film Administration of America is established, we Hollywood filmmakers will have another shackle on our heads." I grinned and sighed.
Hayes hugged my shoulder and said, "Don't worry, President Coolidge told me that the National Film Administration of America has initially won the consent of Congress and is expected to be officially established after Christmas. The President also said that the head of this National Film Administration, the federal government will definitely choose a person familiar with the emergencies of the fall. Listen to his tone, the National Film Administration of America will stand on the side of the filmmakers in the future, and will definitely not make things difficult for you. Besides, even if they make things difficult for others, they will not dare to make things difficult for you."
I smiled bitterly and stopped thinking about the National Film Administration. After all, it was a very distant thing and had little to do with me.
"Haes, hurry up and prepare and review our movie. We are still busy with the release tomorrow." I pointed to the box at my feet.
Hayes and Grant immediately ran outside and called out.
More than ten minutes later, the review room was full and I heard that "Hollywood Story" was submitted for trial. The members of the Code Executive Board were very excited.
Of course, most people want to watch this movie urgently. There are also a very small number of people who want to watch it lively. Every time the DreamWorks movie is submitted for review, there will always be a very lively conflict, which has become a highlight for many people.
However, when I walked in with Stenborough and Gans, I didn't see the cold face of Yutus Cres for the first time, which suddenly made me very uncomfortable.
I waved at Donner Lapuda and called him behind.
"What's going on? Why didn't Yutus Clay come?" I whispered to the empty seat in the front row of the review room.
Donner Lapda smiled and said, "Boss,
I was also amused by his words: "Of course not, but I'm really not used to it when he is not here."
To be continued...
