Blackstone Code Chapter 244: Beautiful scenery and lake fishing
Latest website: The pre-sale box office and the first-day box office gave Fox and his son a good experience, an experience where they could easily make clean money, and they were also sought after by the stars and producers in the society.
Compared to simple wealth growth, the latter is actually what they enjoy the most, because they can finally proudly tell others that they have stepped on the first ladder to high society.
It won't be long before father and son become members of high society.
This is actually a very strange...culture, or thought, in the Baylor Federation, the goal of most people's efforts is wealth and money, but if you want to find a goal similar to them, when Perhaps being in the upper class is the only one.
There are many young and beautiful women who are willing to wear slut-like titles and take off their clothes easily, just to squeeze into the upper class circle in the name of "social girl".
This is a very strange yearning, but it is also the ultimate goal of most Commonwealths - wandering among the dignitaries and celebrities all day long, chatting and laughing with them, it seems to be the best thing to do .
The former Fox fathers and sons may have had this idea, which is why Mr. Fox would send his children to school, but they recognized the reality that even if little Fox finished his schooling, he would not have a stellar background. It was hard to get into that world, so he went back to Mr Fox's "family business".
But now, that's all changed, they're walking the red carpet, bathing in the scorching light of the spotlight, laughing with people, and people laughing at their possibly not-so-hilarious humour, and it's all pretty awesome!
On top of all this, the feedback from the film's full release was a bit of a surprise.
Judging from the current box office and word-of-mouth trends, perhaps this film has the potential to explode. Although many film critics have scolded the film, they still cannot stop the alternative temptation of word of mouth.
Looking at the body of a female star is an irresistible temptation for many fans, even if they know that the female star may not be famous, but they still can't stop their desire to find out.
The box office also soared. Along with it, the production company held five filming agreements. According to the trick Lynch gave Fox and his son, even if they were with other adults in the early stage Film producers have an agreement, and also sign a ladder agreement, or a gambling agreement, to ensure their own interests.
The father and son and the heroine were instantly popular, and in the next three days, the three-day box office data was released, and they suddenly became the most popular people in Laltimore.
Every day different producers, production companies, directors, screenwriters, and even actresses come into their rooms with all kinds of materials and ask for help.
From a small production investment of a few thousand dollars, to experiencing a different vibe in exchange for an uncertain commitment, everyone benefits from this investment.
The box office victory made the distribution company see a further possibility. After negotiating with Fox and his son, they decided to add an additional 350,000 Federal Sol for larger-scale publicity.
In order to make the publicity more effective, they have come up with some unprecedented, but full of temptation tricks.
For example, choosing lucky audience members to have dinner with the heroine, or even enjoying a dance art full of art but not suitable for minors, which directly detonated a special group.
In order to meet the heroine, some people plan to use all the money that does not affect their lives to buy movie tickets repeatedly, and these are eventually put into the pockets of Fox and his son, as well as Lynch.
Three days passed quickly, and the whole Laltimore went crazy because of this movie, which some people thought was a vulgar movie, and some capital began to make selective investments tentatively. , the whole Laltimore came alive at once.
Federal Films published such an article titled "Pulp Times".
"...even though we know it's just a sleazy movie to satisfy lechers, you have to admit that it activated the film industry across the Commonwealth."
“More and more film projects are starting to come into contact with capital. Some projects are officially approved and casting is started. This reminds me of Laltimore five years ago. The streets are full of various cameras and crews. Filming has been integrated into people's lives and into people's blood."
"I'm so happy that our normal life is back!"
"I'm also very sad, because no one knows whether the next era will belong to art or vulgarity!"
While the Foxes were immersed in the life they and the entire Commonwealth aspired to, Lynch had quietly returned to Sabine City, where he was not needed, and there was nothing else he could do there .
The first thing he did when he got back to Sabine City was to ask Joe Grimman out.
Joe Grimman's powers have been greatly reduced due to the distrust of the branch and headquarters, making him almost a fringe of the bank now.
In the past, everyone who worked at the bank would greet him when they saw him, and a simple "Mr. Joe Grimman, good morning" would put him in a better mood.
But now no one wants to say hello to him. Even those who come on the road are mostly bowing their heads or looking away. Even if they can't avoid Joe Grimman's eyes, at most they will nod their heads. Hastily.
This disparity makes him very uncomfortable, just because some people think he's doing a good job, and some people are going to suppress him, doesn't it sound funny?
But for a "little person" like him, this is also a fate he has no choice but to bear.
The two made an appointment at the villa by the lake. Since the general strike, their family moved to the villa by the lake. There were many people in the originally deserted villa area, and it became lively.
In order to avoid accidents, many rich people have moved here, and they have spontaneously hired a fully armed security team for the community service company to protect their safety.
In fact, there is a deeper meaning in this. If some special circumstances really happen, they can let the security guard directly kill the intruder. At that time, with their social relationship, they can easily kill the intruder. Keep these things down.
The two met in the afternoon. When Lynch met Joe Grimman, he was fishing at the lake. He looked... full of twilight, like a retired old man who was starting to kill his boredom. time, and then waiting to grow old and die.
"Fishing is a very interesting thing!" Joe Grimman said without looking back after hearing the footsteps, his eyes were always on the slightly rippling water, "You know, this The fish are at their fattest, and they accumulate fat throughout the fall, allowing the oil to penetrate every inch of their muscle.”
Lynch walked aside and looked at the surface of the water, but his heart did not waver at all, "I thought you wouldn't like to eat freshwater fish. I don't know what fish are here, but I know that freshwater fish have many spines."
Joe Grimman fixed the rod indifferently, he stood up and moved his shoulders, "My servant will help me pick out the thorns, so to me freshwater fish, saltwater fish, they are nothing difference."
Speaking for a while, the nonsense of greeting is finished, Joe Grimman directly asked Lynch's intention, "Tell me, is there anything I can help you with?" He turned around Looking at Lynch, "But you know, my value is limited now. If I can't help you, I'm sorry, I made you go away in vain."
Lynch shook his head, "Can you help me with this matter, didn't you say last time that the branch had arranged an assistant for you?"
As soon as he heard Lynch's question, Joe Grimman's expression changed slightly, he suppressed the unhappiness in his heart, nodded and asked, "Yes, do you want his contact information? "
Lynch could hear from his words that he was unhappy with his own question, of course Lynch didn't show some kind of antagonism right away, he just smiled and said, "No, you misunderstood my purpose, I I just wanted to ask you, why do you think he can't be on your side?"
Joe Grimman almost blurted out, "He's the one sent from above against me..."
Lynch nodded noncommittally, "There are no permanent enemies, only permanent interests, Mr. Joe Grimman, my friend."
"If you don't try, you won't get anything, but if you try, there's at least one possibility, you say?"
Joe Grimman took a deep look at Lynch before he skipped the topic that had taken root in his heart, "Tell me about your purpose, maybe I can help you."
Lynch also stopped going around in circles, "The Ristoan Group will definitely not be able to leave, I will find a way to push this matter, and I have also reached some kind of agreement with some people. Part of it will be auctioned to raise some compensation to compensate workers who have lost their ability to live and work due to work-related injuries over the years.”
"I want to make sure that the auction price isn't too high and I'm the only one who gets it."
Joe Grimman frowned. In the Baylor Federation, judicial auctions are basically contracted to banks to do ~IndoMTL.com~ The court is not very good at interfering in these matters, so as to avoid fraud. .
Originally, he could control these things, but now his power has been emptied, and his assistants don't nod to agree, many things can't be done.
The expression on Joe Grimman's face became more and more solemn and serious, he thought for a long time and shook his head, "I have hinted at some things, you know, but his attitude is very strong , I think maybe the above wants him to take my place."
If the bank branch really has such an idea and arrangement, it would be a joke to win over.
Lynch was not too surprised. He put it another way, "If you can't win him over, can't you destroy him?"
"Everyone has weaknesses, and there are weaknesses that can be put on your side because you can help them make up for them."
"But there are also weaknesses that you use to destroy."
He glanced at the suddenly turbulent surface of the lake, "Your fish is biting!"
