Chapter 1039 Discussion
The three words "pay him" were repeated several times in a row, without giving the number.
Hanks was in a hurry, slapped the table, and asked sharply, "How much? Say."
Fern closed his eyes and said, "Two billion dollars."
"boom"
An ashtray on the table flew out of Hanks' hands and hit Fern's forehead accurately, causing him to bleed and pain, but Fern just couldn't move.
Hanks' chest kept rising, his breathing became thicker and heavier, his face was as ugly as a dead father, his eyes were fixed on Fern like knives, and he said word by word: "Because a profit is only four For "Assassin" of billions of dollars, we need to pay two billion dollars. Fern, tell me, what should I do to you?"
Fern cried and said, "I...I..."
Hanks laughed suddenly, looked at Fern as if he was going to eat him, and said coldly: "You can go back and write your will, two billion dollars is enough to kill you 10,000 times, now get out of here. ."
Fern's face changed greatly, he knelt down directly, and said, "Mr. Hanks spare your life."
Having been in Hollywood for so many years, Fern doesn't think that Hanks is just joking with himself. There are many people in Hollywood every day, and Fern doesn't want to be one of them.
Hanks said blankly: "You can also forgive me if you want. Go to Xiao for me. As long as he is willing to withdraw the lawsuit, I can pretend that this matter never happened."
Fern's throat moved, and his heart was already dead.
Not to mention that he and Xiao Yunhai don't know each other at all, even if they are very good friends, it is impossible for the other party to give up the huge wealth of two billion US dollars for himself.
But he knew that he had no choice but to agree first and save his life.
After Fern left the office, Hanks spread out directly on the sofa, as if he had lost the slightest strength.
Hanks has done a lot since taking over at Paramount, but most of it is spending money, not making money.
Steer's board of directors had objected to his ascension to Paramount's general manager position. If it weren't for his father, he would never have gotten the position he is today.
Well now, the MGM acquisition plan went bankrupt and lost $17 billion. The loss of the two movies was even more miserable. Next, Xiao Yunhai had to pay 2 billion US dollars. The result can be said to be terrible. It is estimated that the last thing waiting for him is to leave Paramount.
The culprit of all this is Xiao Yunhai.
Without him, how could I have gotten to this point.
Thinking of Xiao Yunhai, Hanks' teeth itch with hatred.
If it weren't for Xiao Yunhai's special status and the lessons learned from the previous mercenaries, Hanks would have found someone to kill him long ago.
That afternoon, Xiao Yunhai's legal team entered the courtroom and handed over the evidence. This matter is really clear, and all fans who have seen "Assassin" know it, so the court decided to hear the case immediately, and asked Paramount to send a representative to appear in court tomorrow.
Fern cheekily came to the building of Marvel Comics, and wanted to ask Xiao Yunhai to intercede, but unfortunately, Xiao Yunhai had already returned to China by plane.
There was no way, Fern had to hurried back home, and without saying a word, he started to let his family pack up, and flew off by plane that afternoon.
When Hanks heard the news, he almost died of anger.
Xiao Yunhai's villa
Chen Huan, Yao Na, and Zhu Chengwei, deputy director of Jiangsu TV Station, the director of "Singer Night", were sitting in the living room and talking to Zhao Wanqing.
"Director Zhu is really amazing. He even invited Sister Na to participate in "Singer Night". This is not an easy task." Zhao Wanqing smiled.
Yao Na smiled bitterly and said, "You thought I wanted to participate, but I wasn't forced to."
"Forced?" Zhao Wanqing asked in surprise: "Who dares to force you, the music queen? Is it Director Zhu?"
Zhu Chengwei quickly waved his hand and said, "How can I have the courage."
Chen Huan sighed: "It wasn't forced by those foreign singers."
It turned out that today's "Singer Night" is completely different from the previous issue. In order to increase the ratings, under the deliberate guidance of Anhui TV station, it has evolved into a competition between foreign singers and Chinese singers.
The thirteen contestants consisted of six Chinese singers and seven Asian and European singers. After each singer was eliminated, they were basically filled by singers from the region.
The live studio is also much larger, capable of accommodating 3,000 people at the same time, and the audio equipment has been upgraded by a level, and the effect has reached the top level. The live audience increased to 3,000 people, 1,500 of which were foreign fans of different ages, to ensure the fairness of "Singer Night".
More importantly, the copyright of "Night of the Singer" has been sold all over the world. After the recording is completed, it will be broadcast on TV stations in various countries. The ratings are terrifyingly high, which makes Anhui TV station earn a lot of money. It has attracted numerous superstars and famous musicians to attend.
It can be said that "Night of Singers" has already attracted musicians from all over the world, and every singer is proud to be on this show.
Unfortunately, the performance of Huaxia singers is very bad. In the last two episodes, they have been eliminated four consecutively. The rankings of other singers are also very average. The top three are basically held by foreign singers. Pay attention to.
You must know that the show "Singer's Night" is going to appear in front of fans around the world. If the results are too poor, the entire Chinese music circle will be ridiculed by fans around the world.
Therefore, when several highly respected musicians came together, they wanted to find some singers with excellent singing skills who could challenge the singer. Yao Na was one of them.
So many seniors in the music world invited her, of course Yao Na couldn't refuse, so she had to join in. Fortunately, only the last round of the regular season is left, otherwise it would be really troublesome.
Zhao Wanqing smiled and said, "So that's the case. With Sister Na here, I believe those superstars won't be able to please them."
Yao Na said angrily: "You got it. Look at the singers standing on the stage now, which one is not the queen of the country, and there are a large number of excellent music producers behind them. It is very difficult to beat them. terrifying."
Zhao Wanqing has been following "Night of the Singers", knowing that Yao Na is right, the contestants are all very big, even the American singer Eliot and the queen singer Ista have arrived. You must know that these two people are famous even in the world, and their status in the music world is at least two grades higher than Yao Na.
Zhao Wanqing seemed to have guessed the purpose of their coming, and said, "Mr. Chen, Sister Na, Director Zhu, you don't want my family to participate in the competition, right?"
Chen Huan nodded and said, "That's right. Yun Hai's talent in music is unparalleled in the world. One album sold 130 million copies, establishing his status as the world's No. 1 music superstar, and his fame is far higher than others. Any singer. It can be said that Yunhai is the golden sign of our China. Some of our predecessors in the music world agree that it is best to invite Yunhai to be the king of singers."
Yao Na said: "After all, "Singer Night" is a competition organized by our Huaxia. If the results are too poor, it will not be easy for our fans to explain, and it will even become the laughing stock of the whole world. We can't let this happen anyway. The reason why I took the pressure and risked the race."
Zhao Wanqing asked, "Does Yunhai know about this now?"
Zhu Chengwei shook his head and said, "We haven't notified Mr. Xiao yet."
Yao Na said: "If you call him, I am 100% sure that Yunhai will definitely refuse. That's why we came to you, I hope you can help persuade him. He loves you so much, as long as you say it, the effect will definitely be stronger than ours. Wanqing, your consciousness is at least several grades higher than Yunhai, and you are the singer of the first issue of "Singer's Night", you won't refuse, right?"
Zhao Wanqing smiled bitterly and said, "I can only say try. You all know his temperament, let alone games, even if it's an ordinary party, he doesn't want to go. Even I'm not sure if it can be done."
Chen Huan said with a smile: "As long as you can help persuade him. By the way, when will he come back?"
Zhao Wanqing looked at the clock on the wall, it was half past eleven, and said, "He said that he will come back for lunch, it should be almost there. Teacher Chen, Sister Na, and Director Zhu, the three will not leave later. , I have asked the nanny to cook quite a few dishes."
The three of Chen Huan looked at each other and said with a smile, "That's the harassment."
Zhao Wanqing said, "I'm so familiar with them, so I don't need to be so polite."
Yao Na asked, "What about Teng Yang and Jin Yu? Why didn't I see them?"
A smile appeared on Zhao Wanqing's face, and she said, "They are with my mother."
Yao Na nodded and said, "I have to say, this kid Yun Hai is really good at doing things. He bought three villas in one go and connected them together. This idea is really good. The old people from both families can help take care of the children. , Second, it gives everyone independent space and avoids conflicts. Third, the environment here is elegant, and it is much stronger than the city. It can be said that it kills three birds with one stone."
After a few people chatted for a while, they heard the sound of the key opening the door from outside. Zhao Wanqing smiled and said, "It must be my family who came back."
Sure enough, it was Xiao Yunhai who came in.
