Chapter 692 Fighting back Chapter 693 "This killer is not too cold" is back!(2/3)
Counterattack! The horn of the counterattack battlefield will always sound loudly here!
Empire Hotel. After ten o'clock in the evening, it is the most lively time.
The entire hotel is bright and clear inside and outside. As the most famous ecstasy cave in the west, it will always be a paradise for rich men.
Since Natalia became pregnant, I asked her to hand over everything about the hotel to the two deputy managers of the hotel. Then, under my suggestion, Natalia simply stopped investing a huge amount of energy to watch the hotel herself as before, but set up a board of directors to let the board of directors be responsible for management. She retreated and took Vapori with all her heart, and participated in many things in Northrop's arms company.
My mother agreed with this arrangement. She always thought that it was not appropriate for a woman to manage a common place like the Imperial Hotel.
Just after ten o'clock, several small cars slowly drove into the garden behind the Imperial Hotel, and almost no one noticed this.
We went directly to the fifth floor from the back door. Then we entered a room that had been arranged in a private room.
"Every time I get here, I'm excited for no reason." Coolidge looked at the familiar room and tsk his mouth, which made everyone laugh.
"Gans. Have you agreed that they can all come?" Yassel was not so natural for such occasions. She sat alone in the corner and drank.
"Of course I'll call them in person. They agreed, too." Gans smiled.
"Drink a bar, wait for a conversation." I picked up the wine glass.
A group of people were drinking and chatting inside. After half an hour, the door of the private room was pushed open. Under the guidance of the waiter, three people came in.
Douglas, the owner of the Los Angeles Times, walked in front. The man in his forties was in his prime, wearing a black suit and a white striped shirt inside, which was very chic.
Following behind is Limore, the owner of the Los Angeles Tribune. He is recognized as a "golden pen" by media practitioners throughout Los Angeles and even the West. This guy is wearing casual clothes and a cowboy hat, which is in sharp contrast with Douglas.
At the end is Gorizakov, the owner of the Hollywood Times. This guy is wearing a white pinstripe shirt, but it is very suitable for handing out the dress code for hotels.
"Three, we're waiting for you to have an incident." Seeing these three people walking in, I stood up with a smile.
"Mr. Corleon, I'm really embarrassed. I've been busy these days. I'm not too late." Douglas smiled and sat in the opposite position.
Limore and Gorichakov also smiled and were very polite.
A group of people sat down and exchanged greetings, talking about the Imperial Hotel, the women, and the interweaving of Gans and others, which gradually made the anger in the private room become warmer.
"Mr. Corleon, you're going to call us here today, not just for drinking." Limore smiled at me with a glass of wine.
"Of course not." I lowered my cup and shrugged my shoulders.
"Three, do you think, since the establishment of DreamWorks, have there been any place to offend you?" My words made all the guys sitting opposite me stunned.
The three of them looked at each other, and Limore smiled and said, "Where did Mr. Corleon say this? DreamWorks did not offend us. We have always been friends, friends."
"Yes. Over the past few years, DreamWorks has cooperated well with several of our newspapers, and if it weren't for the news caused by DreamWorks, our newspaper sales wouldn't be that good." Douglas said the truth.
DreamWorks sells a lot of advertising fees in their newspapers every year, and because of reporting some news about DreamWorks, these newspapers make no less money. More importantly, in addition, Gans is responsible for DreamWorks' publicity department and they cooperate very closely.
"Since that's the case, I don't know why the three of you opened fire at us." At this point, my face suddenly calmed down.
It was just now noisy and enthusiastic in the private room, and suddenly it became silent.
This is called a warning. I know that if you want to take down these three guys, you must first shock them.
Sure enough, seeing my face calm, the three people sitting opposite me turned very embarrassed.
Douglas coughed pretentiously, "Mr. Corleon. Where does this start?"
I sneered twice and said, "Everyone, I, Andre Corleon, are not a smart person, but at least I am not as stupid as Carrey Rockefeller. I think we all know some things, so we don't need to say them, and it will hurt our composure."
When I heard me mention Carrey Rockefeller, the three guys on the opposite side were completely clear.
"Mr. Corleon, we do this for the sake of newspaper development." Goricakov shrugged.
I laughed. "Development? Not bad. You said this well. Mr. Goricakov. Tell me, what are the benefits of doing this for your company?"
Gorichakov opened his mouth and stuttered: "First. We...we are paid. Secondly. We...we..."
"You have climbed into a large consortium and will have a huge backer. If you don't cooperate, the Rockefeller consortium will make you bankrupt? Isn't it?" I opened my eyes wide and stared at these three people fiercely.
"..." The three people chose to remain silent at the same time.
"Everyone, in terms of strength, although our Rockettec consortium is not as good as the Rockefeller consortium, do you believe it or not? I want you to go bankrupt tomorrow and you will never delay it until the day after tomorrow!? Believe it or not!? Believe it or not, I will immediately fall into a sea of fire!? Believe it or not, I just call. The three of you
I will be found in the stinky ditch tomorrow morning!?”
I stood up and stared at the three of them and roared.
The room was so quiet that I could only hear breathing.
Gans and others were all stunned. They didn't expect me to suddenly get so angry. Only Coolidge and Yassel sat in their seats and seemed to be smiling.
"Mr. Corleon, we really have no choice. Who can't afford to offend the Rockefeller Consortium?" Douglas shrugged.
"The Rockefeller Consortium can't afford to offend us, we, the Rockefeller Consortium, can we offend us, right?" I sneered.
"Mr. Corleon. I hope you can understand our difficulties." Limore shrugged.
"Yes. Mr. Corleon, we admit that we are sorry for you in this matter." The three of them began to soften.
I sat down and sighed a long time, and my tone became more relaxed: "Douglas, Limore, Gorizakov, you three have known me for many years, and everyone knows our friendship. To be honest, I cherish this friendship very much. Because I regard you as part of Los Angeles and my own brothers. But this time you did the land, the land really made me feel very sad."
"You know the ambitions of the Rockefeller Consortium for Hollywood. You know more than anyone else. I ask a question, if Hollywood is swallowed up by the Rockefeller Consortium and becomes their money-making tool. Food is smoky and smoky everywhere, and it becomes a mud full of copper smell, will you see it? As media practitioners and ethical media practitioners, would you see it?"
Our problem made all three of them bow their heads.
"I know the Rockefeller Consortium better than anyone else. They are a greedy giant crocodile. They cooperate with them, and only one result is that they are annexed and then become their money-making tools. They have no freedom, no conscience, and no ideals. I and I know this, so DreamWorks will concentrate the strength of all Hollywood to fight the Rockefeller Consortium and let them be at a loss. Now, they have begun to have new skills and want to make a breakthrough through this event and achieve their goals."
"Don't tell me that this time they're just attacking the Burbank Party. You all know the relationship between DreamWorks and Burbank Party. Rockefeller wants to penetrate his own power little by little by little by little by little by little, and then deal with DreamWorks."
"To be honest, in the past few years, when the Burbank Party did not rise, you didn't feel the security situation in the entire Los Angeles. There are different gangs everywhere, and it is common for you to be popular. Don't you three newspapers pay monthly protection fees? But since the Burbank Party expelled the Italian mafia, society has become stable. Not only did your newspapers not pay protection fees, but they were not blackmailed sometimes, they were taken care of. These are all special care. Do you know?"
I looked at Douglas and talked endlessly.
And the three of them bowed their heads and said nothing.
All I told is the truth, and they naturally knew very well.
"However, this incident made me angry and at the same time, feel very relieved." My words made all three of them raise their heads.
I sighed: "You did not do a dog from the Rockefeller consortium like the boss of Deco's Post, and turned around and bite us wildly. You just stopped it. You rejected the temptation of Carrey Rockefeller. I know that I am very pleased and very happy when you do this."
"Mr. Corleon..." Douglas looked at me, his face full of shame.
"Mr. Corleon. We do this, in fact, a big reason for..." Limore's face also turned red. He stuttered and couldn't say anything.
"It's because of the Lockett TV Group." I laughed.
These words made the three people's heads lower.
I smiled and said, "I understand. I understand very much. I know that after the establishment of the Rockettec TV Group, especially after the broadcast of our TV station, it has had a great impact on you. Carrey Rockefeller told you that we are there. Your newspapers will all go bankrupt, right?"
Douglas and others dodged their eyes, and it seemed that they thought so.
I grinned and said, "Three. The establishment of Lockettke TV station has had a bad impact on this to a certain extent, but I must make some things clear."
"First of all, the emergence of television is a historical necessity. This new media is superior to the general media in terms of communication methods and effects. It will undoubtedly play a huge role in the daily life of the people in the future. It can bring great benefits to mankind. Such an invention cannot be killed or killed. To be more arrogant, no matter what you three newspapers do, it will not perish. And the impact will not only be you three newspapers. The entire American newspaper will be affected by them. This is a fact."
"Secondly, although the emergence of television poses a threat to newspapers, it also brings challenges. The most important thing is that it can form competition with you and bring you wholeheartedly to newspapers. The reason why your newspaper sales have decreased is good, which has something to do with television, but have you ever thought that you have many problems in yourself? You know that you are still following the ancient newspaper concepts and methods, I am bluntly. You should change it well."
"The third and most important thing. Remember, the emergence of television will definitely not lead to the demise of newspapers, it is impossible. Don't ask me why, just look at the relationship between drama and movies. When the movie appears, many people are shouting that drama will perish, but now, the stage on Broadway is still so prosperous, but the appearance of movies brings full-hearted development opportunities to dramas!"
"The relationship between newspapers and television should be more harmonious than dramas and movies. Because although they are all media, the communication methods are fundamentally different, especially in the carriers of communication. People have read newspapers for hundreds of years, and this habit has penetrated into their bones. No matter when, no matter how advanced the technology is, no matter how many new media appear, newspapers cannot die, and they can only usher in more brilliant development. Therefore, the emergence of Lockeke TV will not ruin your newspaper. On the contrary, we can strengthen cooperation and avoid other things. Lockeke TV Group will have a huge information collection system covering the whole country in the near future. Our cooperation in this regard will be great."
"Three, that's all I'm talking about. You should know very well what to do."
I picked up the cup, took a sip of wine, and then became silent.
What I said made Douglas and the other three speechless.
Actually, if you think about it carefully, these things are not difficult to understand. They are all smart people, and I don’t need to say more.
"Mr. Corleon, your words made us shine." Limore nodded vigorously.
Mr. Corleon, we are a little worried.” Douglas was cautious.
"You are worried that standing with us will bring revenge from the Rockefeller Consortium, right?" Coolidge inserted in without saying a word.
Douglas and the other two nodded at the same time.
"Not to mention how powerful the Rockefeller consortium is, Hank Puyol alone is enough for us. He is now the director of the Los Angeles Police Department. Just find an excuse to make us lose our worries. We are just running newspapers and can't stand them, either openly or secretly." Limore said worriedly.
Coolidge laughed: "This is not the territory of the Rockefeller Consortium, but the headquarters of our Rockefeller Consortium. With the Burbank Party there, the Rockefeller Consortium cannot make a big wave. As for that Hank Puyol, you don't have to worry about it. We have our own way to deal with him. And once you stand on our side, we will protect you comprehensively. You should all know how strong the Burbank Party is."
Coolidge gave these three guys a reassurance.
"In addition, DreamWorks decided to add 800 more advertising fees to your local newspapers every year, and other cooperations can also be increased." Gans threw a huge bait next to him.
Having said that, it is already very clear.
"Mr. Corleon. Starting tomorrow, you will see a different newspaper." Douglas said something that made me laugh with laughter on behalf of Limore and Gorichakov.
"I really hope to see it. But tomorrow will not only be the newspapers of you three, but this war will start in all aspects. Everyone, cheers for our cooperation." I raised my cup.
"cheers!"
The cups hit each other.
The atmosphere afterwards was very harmonious. When two hours were spent, Douglas and others stood up and said they wanted to go back to prepare the manuscripts of the next day.
I asked Gans to accompany them out with them. With Gans, I will wait to watch the show tomorrow.
"Boss, I didn't expect it would be easy to pack up these three guys." After Douglas and the other two left, Stenborough smashed his mouth.
To be continued...
