Chapter 24 Famous flowers have owners, uprooted
Andy pulled the newspaper back from Charlize's hand, kneaded it hard, and threw it to the side.
"What is said in the newspaper does not necessarily mean the truth."
Larry reached out and put his arms around Litt's shoulder, patted hard, then looked at Charlize and John, who were stunned opposite each other, and said with a smile: "Although I respect Mr. Orwitt very much, I have to say that my relationship with Litt is more familiar."
Li Te lowered his head and was silent for a moment, then said "Thank you".
At this time, John realized that he had underestimated Litt. Judging from the actions of the Wachowski brothers, it was obvious that they were all on Litt's side, which was obviously inconsistent with the statement in the newspaper.
This made John alert all of a sudden.
"Who are you?"
Lit slowly raised his head and smiled at John.
"As you can see, the newspapers don't know exactly what I'm going to know, but there is one thing that's right. AMG brokerage is indeed registered in my name and I currently own 50% of the company."
John widened his eyes, "You mean, Mr. Orwitz and you are just a partnership?"
Li Yi nodded, "This is the case at the moment."
"Oh, hell!" John couldn't help but curse.
Charlize was also surprised by Litt's identity, but she was not as clear as John's role in operating the film The Matrix, so she didn't realize what impact this incident would have on her.
"Don't you understand?" John turned his head and looked at Charlize. "He is also an agent, but a very capable and powerful guy. This can be seen from his easy gain of your trust. He has a purpose to approach you."
Charlize was a little puzzled, "John, I wonder if you have any misunderstandings. Litt and I just met by chance in the elevator. He couldn't tell you what he said."
John did not explain, but instead changed into a serious tone and said, "Then I ask you as an agent and try to stay away from him as much as possible in the future. Can you do this?"
Charlize was very surprised that John actually said such words in front of Little.
"Why?"
"Because he was worried that you would become my client after tomorrow, so he would be unemployed." Litt gave the answer for John.
Charlize looked at the two men in front of him with an incredible look. He didn't understand why they were talking and laughing just now, but in a blink of an eye they became enemies who were glaring at each other.
John said viciously without fear of Lit's provocative gaze: "I won't let you succeed."
"Since you have guessed my true identity, you should understand that the cards in my hand are much better than you, and you can't win this game at all." Li Te replied without hesitation.
"I don't know how you used to gain Mr. Orwitz's trust, but don't forget that I'm not alone, and I have the entire ICM company behind me." John leaned forward and tried to overwhelm Litt in his momentum.
"Is that true?" Li Te leaned against the back of the chair behind him and looked at John with a little playful look. "A agent who has been joining ICM for less than two years and has no big-name stars in his hands. Can he really mobilize the resources of ICM company?"
John fell silent all of a sudden.
Li Te did not give up, but pressed him step by step.
"Can you arrange Charlize in a big production costing over $50 million? You can't!"
"Can you tailor Charlize a movie that belongs only to her? You can't!"
"Can you guarantee that Charlize will be among the top female Hollywood actresses within three years? You can't!"
"Enough!"
Charlize interrupted Lit's questioning of John because she had had enough, and she invited everyone out for dinner, not to listen to the two men quarrel.
She pressed her hands against the table and made a move that she was ready to get up at any time.
"If you continue arguing, I will leave immediately!"
Lit raised his hand and made an apologetic move, while John relaxed his tight hat. Because of Charlize's outbreak, the two temporarily reached a settlement.
Until the meal was served, neither of them had any language communication.
"You really don't plan to think about my proposal?" Litt looked at Charlize and asked before he started to solve the food on his plate.
"Little!" Charlize glared at him with some anger, "Have you forgotten what I said just now?"
Lite shrugged and lowered his head to start eating his own food.
John had no appetite. What Lite said just now was like a heavy hammer hitting his heart, which made him particularly depressed.
Charlize quickly noticed John's depressed mood, and then she put down the knife and fork in her hand.
"Why, you don't like the food here?"
"No, I'm not very hungry now, so..."
Before John could finish his words, Lit said without raising his head, "It's so sad!"
"What did you say?" John became angry all of a sudden. He was about to stand up and argue with Lit, but was pulled by Charlize.
"I know Lite said something that might offend you just now. Although I'm not sure whether he did this intentionally or unintentionally, there is one thing I can tell you clearly that I won't choose to change agents, at least not now."
Charlize's words stunned John, "Are you serious?"
"certainly!"
Charlize nodded seriously.
"Thank you!" John's eyes were filled with emotion, while the Wachowski brothers who had not interrupted the conversation were worried.
With Li Te taking all his advantages, his opponent can even turn the tables. This guy must feel very uncomfortable now.
Li Te gave a piece of steak into his mouth expressionlessly, chewed it and swallowed it, then raised his head: "Is this your final decision?"
"I'm sorry!" Charlize knew that any explanation was powerless at this moment, so he simply said this.
"Okay, I respect your decision." Li Te reacted strangely. He actually accepted the failure very calmly. This was just two people from the one who was in power and unforgivable just now.
After Larry turned his head to the seat, he whispered to Andy: "100 yuan, I bet he didn't give up!"
Andy turned his head and said unhappily: "Do you think I'm a fool? If he wants to give up like that, then it's not the Lite I know."
Larry didn't intend to give up, "Then change the gambling method, I bet he can take Charlize tonight."
Andy hesitated for a moment, and finally felt that since Charlize rejected Lit in person, it would be impossible to change his mind immediately, at least there would be no chance tonight.
"Okay, I've bet with you!"
The two of them gathered together to catch Charlize's attention.
"What are you talking about?"
“Chamber in the weather!”
Larry hurriedly found a topic, and Andy immediately objected.
"No, we are talking about zodiac signs!"
After seeing that these two people were talking nonsense, Charlize curled his lips and did not continue asking.
Everyone stopped talking at the table, and the dinner ended in an atmosphere that was not particularly harmonious. After that, Charlize was about to take Litt's car back, but John insisted on driving her back by himself.
Larry, who came out of the bathroom and lost a hundred dollars, was feeling unhappy, but when he met John so stubborn, he suddenly became a little unhappy.
"Charlize has already said that he will not change agents. Are you still so careful?"
Unmoved, John continued to insist on sending Charlize home.
Larry wanted to say something else, but Litra grabbed him.
"Anyway, it's a road. I don't think you're going to mind taking your car, right?"
Litt's request was beyond everyone's expectations, and John even thought he had heard it wrong.
Before he could react, Charlize had already agreed for him.
"certainly!"
It was over, and John was not good at opposing it, as it would be too ungraceful.
Lit threw the car keys to Andy, and he got into John's car with Charlize and drove out of the parking lot with the car carrying three people. Larry immediately held Andy down and snatched back the hundred dollars he had just lost to him.
Andy protested loudly, "What are you doing? Let me go!"
Larry said confidently: "Our bet is not over yet. Look, Lit definitely did it on purpose. He will definitely settle this matter on the way!"
Lit did have this plan, and in order to anger John, he deliberately sat in the back row with Charlize, so that John became the driver of both of them.
Charlize was very helpless about this, "I asked you two to stop making trouble like this?"
"No!"
Lit and John answered in unison, and the two reached a rare agreement on this issue.
Charlize weighed the pros and cons, thinking that the problem was still with Lit, so she patiently told her decision not to change agents again.
Lite raised his hand, "Well, I swear I won't ask you to change agents anymore, but I advise John, right?"
John, who was concentrating on driving, sneered, "Don't dream, I will not agree to your request!"
"Are you sure?"
“Very sure!”
"If I invite you to join AMG and as long as you come, you can get a 4% stake in the company, are you still going to refuse?"
"What?" John stopped the car with a sudden brake, turned his head to look at Lit, "Are you sure you're not kidding?"
"If this is not the case, Charlize would not have joined AMG, and she is really important to me!" Litt's answer made Charlize cover his mouth in surprise, and his cheeks were slightly hot.
The car started again, but John was no longer thinking about driving because Litt's suggestion that he was destined to suffer from insomnia tonight!
