Chapter 555: 201.
Extortion by Frightening_4 Chapter 555: 201.
Extortion by Frightening_4 Douglas knew that there was no way he could deal with Donnie, and now the only connection between them was United Artists.
At this point, he had absolutely no positive feelings left for Donnie.
In fact, Douglas didn’t even know what he should do, but at that mont, he just wanted to create so trouble for Donnie!
After hearing Douglas’s words, Charlie Chaplin imdiately burst out with hearty laughter, “Ha-ha, Doug, you’re overthinking it.
Donnie won’t, and doesn’t have the ability to take United Artists away from us!”
“If he doesn’t want to, then why did he buy United Artists’ shares from Pickford?” Douglas was very angry that Charlie Chaplin didn’t understand his thoughts.
...
“It’s simple, Donnie is a businessman, and with United Artists doing so well right now, he certainly wants more shares.
You can think of it as an investnt.
Of course, I don’t deny that as a businessman, if given the chance, Donnie would definitely want more shares in United Artists, and even acquire control of the company in the future.
“But you should understand that the film industry is different from Donnie’s other businesses.
It’s an industry that places great emphasis on content output.
What is the real core asset of a film company?
“It’s us, the four of us are the core assets of United Artists.
Right now, all of United Artists’ valuations co from our accomplishnts.
As long as we four are here, Donnie won’t be able to get control of United Artists.”
Charlie Chaplin seriously explained this to Douglas.
Although on the movie screen, Chaplin was skilled at portraying the little guy, the real Charlie Chaplin was a person with a strong desire for control and very confident.
Charlie Chaplin firmly believed that as long as he was there, no one could take control of United Artists.
Douglas didn’t get the answer he wanted from Charlie Chaplin…
even though he himself didn’t know what answer he was looking for.
Douglas left afterwards, and Donnie put his matters aside; at this ti, this person could no longer have any impact on Donnie.
Now Donnie turned his attention to Rene l and the other two.
According to Archido Bowen, the three of them would et every three days to report on their progress to each other!
Tonight was no exception, the three of them ca to Crowley’s Tavern in the West District of Atlantic City for their eting!
The expressions on their faces were different, and both Rene l’s and Dioge Obama’s appearances had changed sowhat.
Seeing Dioge Obama’s skin had darkened a few shades since arriving in Atlantic City, along with the bulkier shoulders, then looking at the variety of red spots on his own face, Rene l felt a wave of emotion.
“Diego, you’ve suffered these days; it looks like the workload at United States Logistics isn’t light!”
Dioge Obama spoke angrily, “If it was just heavy work related to Donnie Block’s private liquor business, I could’ve accepted it, but they actually had moving marine cargo.
I really…”
At this point, Dioge Obama shook his sleeves and said, “You sll that?
All I reek of is the stench of fish!”
In order to thoroughly investigate the quantity of the private liquor, Dioge Obama decided to infiltrate United States Logistics, beco a dockworker, and fight on the front lines in order to obtain the most accurate data!
This was what Dioge Obama thought while doing this!
However, unexpectedly, he indeed joined United States Logistics smoothly as a laborer, but his job was to cover up the illegal liquor business by openly operating the transportation of ocean goods!
After complaining about his own situation, Dioge Obama then rembered that Rene l’s situation was not much better than his.
“Boss, you’ve also suffered during this ti.
I think after we complete this mission, you should really go to the hospital to get that problem with your skin checked out!”
Rene l, frustrated, said, “Looking at it now, among the three of us, only you, Archido, seem to be making smooth progress!”
Whether it was smooth or not, Archido Bowen didn’t know, but he was certain about one thing—his working environnt was definitely the best; at least he didn’t sll of fish or have big swollen bites from various insects!
“It’s all thanks to you, boss, and Dioge for looking out for .
If either of you had to do my job, maybe you would have already persuaded those two people!”
Archido Bowen knew that now was not the ti to show off too much, otherwise he might easily attract resentnt!
Rene l asked Archido Bowen sowhat urgently, “Archido, are those two people you contacted really willing to testify against Donnie’s actions?”
Up to now, Archido Bowen had not received any instructions from Donnie, so he could only speak evasively, “It shouldn’t be a problem.
As you both know, when Donnie was building the Surf Hotel, he did cause so of the original bar owners in Atlantic City to lose a fair bit of profit.
They are intimidated by Donnie Block’s reputation in Atlantic City, so they don’t dare to rebel.
Moreover, if they didn’t have this idea, Donnie Block would probably already be aware of our activities in Atlantic City by now.
If that were the case, he would definitely co to see you, boss.
So, I think they are indeed tempted, but they are still worried about Donnie’s influence and are currently considering their options!”
“That’s great!” Rene l’s laughter seed to release the frustration he had been holding in from living a wild life, “If we can find soone inside to testify against Donnie Block, it would be a significant breakthrough for our job!”
Archido Bowen cooperated well, saying, “All this is due to your good leadership, boss, and Dioge’s cooperation.
I couldn’t have completed this mission alone!”
Seeing Archido Bowen being so agreeable, Rene l and Dioge Obama’s depressed moods finally improved significantly.
The three of them then exchanged quite a lot of information.
By now, they had also drunk quite a bit!
Just at this mont, three scantily clad girls ca over, “Gentlen, would you care for a drink together?”
At this ti, Archido Bowen and Dioge Bowen both looked at Rene l at the sa ti, their eyes also revealing excitent.
Having lived a monastic lifestyle for so long, it had been a while since they encountered anything indulgent!
Rene l, however, was sowhat concerned.
After all, this was Atlantic City, and if anything went wrong with their operation, it could be difficult to explain!
As Rene l was considering, one of the won had already sat in Rene l’s lap: “Honey, just one whisky, and we’ll be yours for the night!”
As she spoke, she was caressing Rene l’s cheek and her fingers slipped down to Rene l’s chest, Rene l’s…
