Chapter 1472: Chapter 522: The Vermin Erge
So the man felt a bit awkward.
Caron Block, however, took the initiative to shake the other party’s hand indifferently.
Griffith couldn’t hear what the two were saying, but he could sense strong admiration from the man’s expression.
Under the guidance of a waiter, Caron Block ca over here. After sitting down, Caron Block picked up the napkin on the table and wiped his hands.
“Griffith, sorry for being a little late!”
Griffith chuckled and said, “No worries, I just saw the situation earlier.”
Caron Block smiled easily and said, “You an Morina, he is a pitiful person. His child is seriously ill, and in order to raise funds for his son, he chose to rob a store. It was his first ti doing such a thing, and he was obviously not a qualified robber.
He was caught on the spot.
I tried his case!”
Griffith remarked, “So, Mr. Block, you must have rcifully waived his penalty!”
Caron Block looked at Griffith in confusion and said, “Why waive his penalty? He indeed committed a cri, so of course I had to sentence him!”
Griffith was puzzled, if that was the case, why did that man express such gratitude and admiration for Caron Block just now!
Caron Block explained to Griffith, “Although I sentenced him for his actions, I also helped him solve his son’s surgery fees, so he could rest easy spending three months in prison!”
Griffith showed a surprised look, now he could understand why Caron Block’s reputation in Los Angeles is so high.
What he thought was completely different from what Caron Block did. If everything went according to his idea, that person called Morina might have been exempted from punishnt, but it would also bring trouble to Caron Block. Not everyone could allow emotion to override the law.
But now Caron Block’s judgnt allowed everyone involved in this matter to see the results they wanted.
“So, Mr. Block, can you rember everyone’s na?”
Caron Block smiled easily: “Anyone who has interacted with , I can rember!”
A skill that envy politicians.
“Alright!” Caron Block waved his hand and said, “Griffith, I have satisfied your curiosity. Now you should tell about the situation at United Artists? Did Charlie Chaplin and Maurice really co together?
And they have already decided to violate the contract with Starry dia.
Don’t forget, United Artists’ movie release also requires the support of Heimdall Theatre chain!”
Griffith showed a bitter smile, and when he received Caron Block’s call, he already guessed Caron Block wanted to talk about this matter.
“Mr. Block, according to the contract, United Artists did not violate any terms, Miss Britney’s situation is actually within the contract!”
Caron Block waved his hand and said, “Griffith, I invited you alone today because I trust you, so don’t say these kid-pleasing words to . Replace Britney’s movie, that is the best proof!”
Griffith shook his head and said, “Mr. Block, please believe , I have fought for Miss Mackey in this matter, but you know, I am no longer responsible for the company’s production!”
Caron Block nodded and said: “So, is there no room for negotiation in this matter?”
Griffith knew Charlie Chaplin and Maurice Rothschild’s thoughts, actually, they always wanted to de-Venus United Artists.
When they signed the equity sale, they deliberately added a clause, which is that United Artists has the priority release right on Heimdall Theatre chain.
This is to prevent Venus Bank from soday using Heimdall Theatre chain to hinder United Artists when they want to buy back United Artists.
At least in Charlie Chaplin, Maurice Rothschild’s view, Venus Bank has little influence on United Artists now.
After Maurice Rothschild beca the production director of United Artists, he greatly promoted his people, marginalized many people sent by Venus Bank in the past. If so departnts now cannot leave these people, they would probably directly clear them out of the company.
But Griffith had different thoughts from Charlie Chaplin and Maurice Rothschild.
Although Venus Bank is no longer the major shareholder of United Artists.
Venus Bank still owns the largest theater chain company, Heimdall.
At the sa ti, Venus Bank has maintained good relations with several large Hollywood studios, after the Italian Bank war in California, Venus Bank beca the only loan bank for Hollywood Film Studio.
Moreover, the growing Disney Studios also has shares in Venus Bank, rumors have it that Venus Bank is also a major shareholder of Disney Studios.
These conditions, in Griffith’s view, as long as Venus Bank wants, they can anyti support a large film studio that matches United Artists.
So Griffith doesn’t want to make enemies with Venus Bank.
But obviously, Griffith’s words were not listened to by Charlie Chaplin and Maurice Rothschild.
“Mr. Block, please give a day, and tomorrow I will definitely persuade the two of them again, I believe they will also give up the hostile behavior with Venus Bank for the company’s interests!”
Griffith still wanted to fight for it.
Caron Block pondered for a mont and smiled: “Of course, since Mr. Griffith you asked, I naturally will give face, tomorrow evening I’ll wait for your call!”
Griffith thought he was already a master of acting, but at this mont he still couldn’t judge whether Caron Block’s smile was sincere or fake!
“Thank you!”
“Alright, since the business is done, we can now enjoy the food. I don’t know if you have been here, Griffith, but I strongly recomnd their French foie gras, it’s quite delicious.”
Caron Block warmly recomnded the restaurant’s delicacies to Griffith.
Griffith laughed and said, “Really? Then I really should try it!”
The two then talked about various subjects, chatting happily.
The next day!
When Griffith arrived at Charlie Chaplin’s office, he saw the fat Maurice Rothschild sitting on the sofa.
“Griffith, what brings you to my office so early!”
Charlie Chaplin got up and said to Griffith with a smile.
Griffith sighed, he could discern falsehood in Charlie Chaplin’s laughter. Actually, when Donnie wanted United Artists to go public, there was already a rift between Griffith and Charlie Chaplin.
Although later they still maintained a good friendship that seed good to outsiders.
But both knew their relationship couldn’t go back to before.
“Charlie, I want to ask about the Britney thing, the script has always been portraying the character according to her image. Now suddenly replacing Britney, won’t it have an impact on the movie?”
Griffith straightforwardly said, but didn’t ntion Caron Block’s matter, instead using the film’s situation to talk with Charlie Chaplin about the matter.
“Mr. Griffith, you shouldn’t ask Charlie, I made the decision to replace Britney!”
Maurice Rothschild spoke for Charlie Chaplin.
This made Charlie Chaplin sit down, looking relaxed at Griffith.
Griffith said, “Mr. Rothschild, there must be a reason for this, Britney is backed by Starry dia, we don’t need to have conflicts with them!”
