Sean came down here, of course, not just because of Murdoch.

This is because the chairmen of the other seven companies of the Eighth National Congress have arrived.

Sean's status is here. He personally participated, including Murdoch. Even if the two sides have a lot of hatred, they still have to come to support this kind of moment.

This is the rule in the wealthy circle.

Of course, the eight major companies are also ranked high and low.

The boss of MGM, the gambling tycoon Kirk Kerkorian, arrived earlier than Murdoch.

Among the eight major universities, MGM is not having an easy time, even though MGM was once a Hollywood legend.

Why is MGM said to be a myth? It’s because it has the most number one movies in film history.

For example, "Gone with the Wind", "Chigfield", "The Wizard of Oz", "The Blue Bridge", "Philadelphia Story", such as the enduring 007, such as the immortal cartoon character "Tom and Jerry".

Moreover, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences was initiated and established by MGM, and the Academy Awards, the "Oscars," were also initiated by MGM.

But after World War II, MGM began to decline. As for the reason, it was because there were no cable channels, TV networks, or media groups to back it up.

This results in independent production companies like MGM being constrained by others in their promotional channels.

As for Sean Pictures, the reason why it was recognized as one of the top eight is that Sean is strong enough and has the attitude of flipping the table if you don't give me a bite.

It’s even more because they hold a big killer weapon like New Century Media in their hands.

With New Century Media, a newly emerging cable media company, Sean is in an invincible position in movie promotion.

At the same time, relying on the cable TV network throughout North America, we can communicate and negotiate with theater chains throughout North America, and the North American distribution network can be settled in one go.

The biggest reason why those small film companies cannot establish a distribution network is that they cannot afford the high labor expenses.

Traveling across the United States, in all 50 states, and in cities of all sizes, running distribution lines, contacting theaters, maintaining relationships, and solving problems all require a lot of manpower.

If the number of movies produced is not enough, labor costs alone can bankrupt a small film company.

And these are just incidental things to New Century Media.

7 core local stations in the largest cities in the United States. The original 12 local stations. Later, with the support of Sean's capital, more than 10 acquisitions were completed, and some local TV stations were added.

New Century's current network covers almost all states in North America.

With publicity channels, controlled mouthpieces, and North American distribution channels, it is only a matter of time to win the top eight.

After Murdoch arrived, the directors of Coca-Cola, the boss behind Paramount and the boss behind Columbia, also arrived.

Later, Warner’s boss, real estate tycoon Steve Ross, and the boss of American music company MCA...

Everyone greeted him one by one, and Sean behaved normally.

This made Murdoch feel very abnormal.

All these big shots went in, and all of Sean's friends also arrived.

Xiaobu, Jianguo, Jianguo's younger brother, Sean's cheap brother Hayden, cheap sister, the son of Jayne Rockefeller, the eldest son of this generation, all arrived one after another.

Then came the people in politics.

In the eye of the storm are Tom Bradley, Governor Pete Wilson, Los Angeles, and California lawmakers from both parties.

Even Xi Deng, who was thousands of miles away, was invited from Delaware.

The young Xiden had brown hair combed into a nine-part style, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and was not at all as naive as he would be later...

There were waves of customers, and the portions were all generous, and Sean's energy was fully revealed at this time.

The banquet began. First, Katzenberg came on stage to make an opening statement, and then Sean came on stage to introduce the guests.

Before leaving the stage, Sean said, "Look here, we know that the situation in Los Angeles is not that bad, right?"

Everyone in the audience suddenly laughed.

The United States is the United States of capitalists. As long as the capitalists are not in chaos, no matter how much trouble the people below make, it will be a trivial matter.

It doesn’t have its own program, it doesn’t have its own beliefs, it doesn’t have its own leaders, it’s just a mess.

The banquet officially started, and Sean was surrounded by a group of old men who were at least in their 40s. He was young, tall, handsome, and had eye-catching eyes.

Although it was not what he expected, he still became the focus of the banquet.

too young!

In the banquet hall, everyone glanced at Sean from time to time.

Especially this group of people in Hollywood, the male stars look at Sean with envy and jealousy.

Don't dare to hate.

Well, I'm afraid of death!

The women’s gazes are so unbearable!

Can't bear it, can't bear it...

For them, whether they want resources, fame, or more directly, money.

No matter what it is, as long as they can get Sean, no, as long as they can climb into Sean's bed, all these goals are within easy reach!

For the women who are struggling in this vanity fair, the temptation is overwhelming.

…

Rich people in the United States are always keen to attend various banquets, thinking that they can meet many people of similar status to themselves at the banquets, and they can handle some big business with just a few words.

American politicians are always keen to attend various banquets, because they can meet many like-minded donors and attract enough connections and funds for the next election.

Of course, this is also a good place to solve problems.

"Sean, do you have any good ideas about the current situation in Los Angeles?" Tom Bradley took the initiative to find Sean and asked.

It’s not that I really hope to get any answers from Sean, riots or something like that is just a topic to bring people closer together.

Sean's Pictures has entered the top eight and will inevitably become a decisive force in Hollywood. Coupled with the influence of New Century Media in the public opinion circles in Los Angeles and even California, Tom, the mayor, must have a good relationship with Sean.

If Sean has any request, he will help. That's the deal.

Sean picked up the wine glass and touched it with Tom. He took a sip and said nonchalantly: "I have many black friends."

Sean's words made Tom stunned, and he couldn't react for a while.

"These black friends of mine have been a big help to me."

Only then did Tom come to his senses. Sean was expressing his kindness to himself, a member of the Donkey Party.

Tom was very happy, "Yes, yes, black people are actually very simple. As long as you treat them as friends, they will be very kind to you."

"Of course, as long as you don't bring them to your woman." Sean suddenly joked.

Tom was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

He doesn't think this is sarcastic or derogatory. After all, I'm really big. Please bear with me!

With a joke, the relationship between the two suddenly became closer.

"The situation in Los Angeles is actually doomed. I know that almost everyone in the Los Angeles Police Department is inclined to the Elephant Party." Sean brought the topic back, and Tom's expression suddenly became serious.

Every time he campaigned, he claimed to reduce the crime rate in Los Angeles, but in fact, the effect has always been negative.

Although there are more blacks and Latinos in Los Angeles, the lack of cooperation within the Los Angeles Police Department is also an important factor.

Even if the police chief is his.

"What can Mr. Sean do?" Tom knew that Sean would not mention this for no reason.

"I wonder if Mayor Tom knows Newark." Sean asked again.

(There are many Newarks in the United States. For example, Delaware, where Shden is located, has a Newark.)

Tom nodded. Newark is adjacent to New York and is one of the cities with the highest proportion of black people. Black people account for more than 60%. It has always been one of the cities with the highest crime rate.

"The Umbrella Company has cooperated with the Newark police to a certain extent. As a supplementary force to the police, it has played a key role. As a result, Newark's crime rate has been significantly reduced." Sean said calmly.

Whether a city in the United States has a high or low crime rate depends on very complex factors. Simply increasing the number of police officers or changing the person in charge cannot have much of an impact.

Take Los Angeles as an example.

The population of Hispanics in Los Angeles has grown rapidly in recent years. Their wages are lower, their appearance and bloodline are closer to those of whites, and they are more popular in the labor market.

Jobs that originally required hiring blacks were largely taken by Hispanics, such as janitors, which forced a large number of unemployed blacks to engage in criminal work to make ends meet.

This is something that cannot be solved with the slogan of "racial discrimination". We are all ethnic minorities. What's more, Hispanics are indeed more diligent than black people and have a better image.

And the Los Angeles Police Department is also happy to see this kind of thing happen.

The police are employed and are not affected by the administrative system. It is the police chief who is pulled out and beaten when problems arise, and has nothing to do with the people below.

The number of jobs and wages will not increase for more than ten years.

Of course, the police don't care whether they get a salary increase or not, and they won't be grateful to the mayor for it.

After all, police officers rely more on gray income to maintain a good life.

You don’t have to pay for the cigarettes you smoke, the wine you drink, or the expenses you spend in bars.
