Chapter 548 The Jedi Strikes Back Chapter 549 The Premiere of "ET" (Part 1)(1/3)

Looking at Griffiths and others, he said in a deep voice: "The stock market is like a card. No matter how big the rumors outside are, if there is no one who sells out a large number of shares at hand, the new stock of Rockefeller Consortium may fall. Therefore, rumors have to be made, but there must be such a person inside the stock market."

My words made Yassel and others think it was right, and even Livermore nodded repeatedly.

"The boss is right. Such a person not only needs a large amount of stocks on hand, but also has to be sold at the same time. Boss, we don't have stocks on hand at all, how can we find such a person?" Livermore looked at me, a little embarrassed.

Yes, our DreamWorks is short-selling this time, and as the name suggests, of course there are no stocks in hand.

Although there are some rumors now, by then, this new stock of Rockefeller Consortium is still a money tree in the eyes of many people, let alone those who have a large number of stocks at hand, they are unlikely to sell it. Even if it means to sell it, it will definitely sell it in batches.

It's really hard to find someone else.

The office became quiet, very quiet.

Everyone was thinking hard about ways and racking their brains to think about whether there is such a person in Los Angeles.

I walked over the room and walked unknowingly to the mirror in the room. When I looked at my face in the mirror, a bold idea suddenly flashed in my mind.

"I have a way, I have a way!" I laughed.

Livermore and others looked at me with anticipation on their faces.

"Boss, who do you think of?" Yassel whispered.

I pointed to my nose and said, "It's far away in the sky. It's near in front of me."

"Boss!?Impossible, how can we sell the stocks in our hands??" Yassel's eyes were almost falling off.

I smiled slightly: "Yes, we don't have it now, but wouldn't it be enough if we bought a large amount of stocks and sold them?"

"And invest money in the stock market!" Gans stood up suddenly.

"Boss, you're crazy. Now we're shaking. If there's a good thing, even if God comes, we can't save us!" Gans shook his head in an anxious manner.

"Yes, boss, you have to think it through. Now we have owed more than 100 million yuan. If the money invested in the land is wasted, we will completely overcome it." Even Yassel, who is usually the most stable, began to feel guilty.

"Boss, do you mean? Put in the 100 million dollars we pulled out?" Among the people, only Livermore's eyes were shining.

I nodded.

I stopped Livermore from trying to be a short seller of 300 million US dollars. This one hundred million was pulled out. At the beginning, I just thought of being careful, but I didn't expect that this one hundred million would be really useful.

"Everyone, I agree with the boss's idea, and I think the boss's approach in this way is already a master of stocks!" Livermore clapped his hands hard and laughed.

"Livermore, you are crazy! It's time now, not only do you not stop it, but also encourage the boss. Do you want us to sleep on the street?" Gans gave Livermore a blank look and said angrily.

Livermore shook his head and then analyzed: "The boss's move is really clever. Everyone, don't worry. Listen to my analysis."

Seeing Livermore's serious look, Gans and others stopped yelling, and they all sat in front of Livermore and stared at his face.

Livermore said calmly: "You all know that the Rockefeller Consortium has now targeted the 200 million short sellers we have made, so he is desperate to keep the stock price rising in the past few days. In other words, once we lose money after the 200 million short sellers we have made due, the Rockefeller Consortium stock will definitely fall, right?"

"Yes!" Gans and others nodded together.

Livermore said: "Our biggest wish now is to let the stock fall. If we use the 100 million we have at hand to buy stocks, it will be a big deal. After we buy stocks, there can only be two situations in the stock market: either falling or rising, and whether it is falling or a prize, we have all the benefits."

"Continue!" Gans and others heard some signs.

"If we buy 100 million yuan of stocks and still rise, our investment of 100 million yuan will make a lot of money. After making a lot of money, we will sell them all at once. At that time, the White House and Los Angeles had already been full of rumors. If those investors saw us throw out such a large amount of money, they would definitely take action. In this way, the new stock of Rockefeller Consortium will only have a downside. Their stocks fell, and the 200 million yuan of shorts we made will make a lot of money. The 200 million yuan of shorts in the land can reduce losses and even remain flat. In the end, if they are not done well, we may make a profit!" Livermore's eyes shone with fanatical light and looked at me with great admiration.

Gans, Yassel and others understood.

"Boss, this plan doesn't seem to have any loopholes, but I'm still a little guilty. If there is another problem with this one hundred million, we will be completely finished. Be careful." Griffith reminded me.

I sighed: "David, I know everything you said, but at present, even if there is danger, I have to fight, not to mention that I think the plan will almost never fail."

"Boss, I have a question. What should I do if our stocks of 100 million yuan are sold after they still do not trigger a craze among the public??" Stenberg stared at me.

I spread my hands: "Even if it does not trigger a craze for the public, the 100 million we invested will make a lot of money. Besides, I have the confidence to be the first domino to fall."

"Boss, a stock worth 100 million sounds a lot, but not much." Livermore hesitated.

I shook my head: "There are many hundred million, and there are several hundred million."

"Severals of millions?! How many millions are there?" Gans was completely confused by me.

I stood up and breathed a sigh of relief, "You have forgotten, this time. Marscollo

Dorph Chuck, Sam Warner and others have already purchased a lot of stocks, and the money will be at least hundreds of millions. I will join forces with them to sell together. Hehe, I’m afraid Carrey Rockefeller will jump off the building then!"

"Yes, why did I forget this!" Gans slapped his forehead.

"But boss, I don't think they will definitely listen to you and throw away the stocks in their hands." Griffith was still worried.

I nodded: "David is right. This requires us to do our job."

"How to do the job?" Gans smiled badly.

"Come here!" I waved to them a few times: "We have to do this..."



In the afternoon of that day, in the last ten minutes of the stock market, three people named Washington, Bush and Roosevelt bought new stocks issued by the Rockefeller Consortium worth 100 million. This action almost did not attract the attention of most people. On the one hand, it was the time when the stock market was about to end, and on the other hand, people were buying stocks every day. Such actions were not conspicuous.

Meanwhile, I called Coolidge.

"Uncle Sam, I have something to do with you." When Coolidge was calling, a heavy gasp was coming from there.

"What...thing, tell me quickly." Coolidge said intermittently.

"I said Uncle Sam, can you be serious? Stop it and you will be happy again in a while! My life is a big deal about heaven and earth!" I yelled.

"You said it, I'll listen!" Coolidge still didn't stop, and then I heard the tide moans of his secretary over there.

"I'm convinced you. I want to ask you for help." I made it straight to the point.

"It's a matter in the stock market...well... say!" Coolidge was very generous.

"Call me at 7:30 tomorrow night." I smiled.

"I know, say it!" Coolidge urged.

"It's over."

"Say...I'm done!? Didn't you ask me to help you? If you don't say it, why would I call you tomorrow night?" Coolidge became anxious.

"The kind of help I asked you to help is to call me at 7:30 tomorrow night." I smirked.

"It's just that simple to make a phone call!" Coolidge was a little disbelief.

"It's that simple." I affirmed.

"Then what should I say?" Coolidge was a little confused.

"You'll just say that..." I gave some advice.

Coolidge laughed: "Andre, you must be playing something again!"

Coolidge is very familiar with me, and he guessed that I asked him to do this, and he must have done something bad.

"Don't worry, I'll guarantee to complete the task tomorrow!" Coolidge's breathing became heavier and heavier.

"By the way. You have to hurry up when I ask you to spread the news there. It is best if I can see the relevant news from the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal." I was a little worried and started to remind me.

"Just put your heart in your stomach. Since I promised you, I will definitely do it!...ah!" A muffled cry came from Coolidge.

"What's wrong!? What's wrong!?" I grabbed the microphone and shouted.

"It's a bitch!... It's true that I'm old, I can twist my waist even if I have sex!" Coolidge's voice from the other side of the microphone was extremely helpless.

"Why don't you twist the thing between your legs?" I cursed and hung up the phone.

On December 15th, the weather was a little cloudy on this day. Layers of clouds were pressing down on the air, as if it was about to snow.

But this did not make people lose their mood. As Christmas approached, the air was filled with joy in every corner of Los Angeles.

For Hollywood people, in addition to the approaching Christmas, there is a more important thing on this day, that is, the Hollywood 1927 Temple Movie schedule reached its climax on this day.

On this day, major Hollywood film companies launched their own leading dramas, and Hollywood film competition has become completely fierce. For audiences, film competition is a matter of film companies, and they don’t have to pay attention to it. They just need to pay for movie tickets to enjoy the hottest movies of the year. For Los Angeles, a native of movie fans, what else can make them happier than it can?

On this night, those small film companies were not counted, but the movies produced by Hollywood Land Film Company were dazzling.

The following movies released on this day and in the following days are the following.

The Western masterpiece that Paramount invested $500, John Ford's "Sands in the West". This movie was named "one of the most anticipated movies of 1927" shortly after it was invested. John Ford is now well-known in Hollywood, and this movie is known as "Hollywood's best western" for decades. Although many people are a bit indifferent to this title, I know the weight of this movie. John Ford and John Wayne join forces to prove that this movie will definitely become a new creation of Western votes, and its strength cannot be underestimated.

In addition, "The Legend of the Palace" directed by Liu Bieqian, which was invested by Warner, also premiered on the 15th night. The movie was expected by the audience. It is no less weak than John Ford's "The West Sand". For a long time, Liu Bieqian has won the love of a large number of viewers with his unique understanding of the movie and his distinctive film style. In addition, the theme of this movie is very attractive, so it is undoubtedly the most competitive film work in the Christmas season of this movie.

"Halilua" directed by King Vito, invested by the 20th century film company, is a religious theme created by "The Passion of Jerusalem". Moreover, they are unique and innovative in the selection of the film materials and are also very competitive.

Global Company invests in Howard Hawks's "The Underworld". It will premiere on the night of the year. As a new director, Howard Hawks has gradually attracted the recognition of Hollywood filmmakers and the general audience. People have a lot of expectations for his movie.

"Midnight London" invested by GM Films, directed by Neporo, is the most luxurious movie in the upscale period. It brings together almost all MGM movie stars, and is a pure visual feast that makes countless viewers look forward to it. However, in order not to collide with "ET", the movie was postponed to the premiere of one day.

It was also postponed to the premiere of the No. 1, and Bivograf Investment Raymond Bell "Chess". Although the investment in this movie is not very large and the cast is not strong, this movie is still famous because of Bivograf's overwhelming advertisements.

Among all the movies during this period, the most popular one was invested by Lei Dianhua Film Company. The film "Thirty-Nine Steps" directed by Alfred Hitchcock. This movie, which later invested 700 yuan, was luxuriously produced and had a strong cast. The most important thing is that Hitchcock, which was hit by "Catching Beauty", brought too much shock to the audience. Therefore, this film was not only regarded as "the most anticipated work in 1927. It is "a work that may compete with Andre Corleon's "ET"." In the promotion of the film, Lei Dianhua also made the "1927: Great Desperation."

For me, John Ford's "The West Sand" and Liu Bieqian's "The Legend of the Palace of Xuan Gong" may have a huge impact on my "ET", but these two movies are likely not as good as Hitchcock's "Thirty-Nine Steps".

I know Hitchcock too much, and how thorough he sees the audience's psychology. He knows what kind of content the audience likes to watch and how the camera stops the audience from watching. He is a real psychology master. I feel a little guilty when facing such a person.

As the best movie of Leidenghua Film Company in a year, Hitchcock's "Thirty-Nine Steps" was originally screened on the 14th, but when they heard that "ET" was postponed to the evening due to editing reasons, they also postponed it, and they shouted that they would definitely fight DreamWorks.

On the night of the 15th, the audience in Los Angeles were delighted. They flocked to the major cinemas with laughter and joy, and all Hollywood filmmakers were sweating. For many of them, the hard work of a year, success or failure is on this night.
