American Scandal King

Chapter 177 The union is going to cause trouble?
On the soft and luxurious big bed in the hotel, a man and a woman were rolling passionately.

Ian Carr fully enjoyed the happiness brought by her former dream lover. Although she lost her most beautiful youth, it was still a satisfaction of her youthful love.

Of course, Ian didn't ask to fuck her while watching a freeze frame from Once Upon a Time in America.

That's so disrespectful.

Jennifer Connelly was still charming after the passionate moment. She snuggled in Ian's arms, pursed her red lips, and her eyes were full of deep affection: "I heard that you don't have a formal girlfriend yet?"

Ian and Scarlett have officially broken up, but it was not Ian who made the news himself. Instead, a group of people made a fuss about his scandal.

Fortunately, neither Ian nor Scarlett cares about this.

At this moment Ian smiled: "Don't think too much, Jennifer. I am a prodigal son and don't belong to anyone."

Jennifer wasn't surprised, but still a little disappointed.

Her beautiful body nestled in Ian's arms. "I also heard that you were in talks to acquire UTA? I hope to revise that contract."

Ian kissed Jennifer's pretty face gently. "I'm not good at film and television. Not interfering with their basic operations is my promise to them, and it's also one of my best reputations in the industry."

Jennifer was getting more disappointed. “So I guess you won’t contact me again?”

Ian pondered.

Jennifer Connelly was beautiful, but it was true that Ian didn't intend to get too involved with her.

The world is big, there are many beauties and many big events.

With more and more girls around Ian, he unconsciously divided all women into three categories: passers-by, short-term holdings and long-term holdings.

Long-term holding usually does not exceed ten years.

Ian's original idea for Jennifer Connelly was just a passing guest.

But since she said so, why not give her a chance?

Ian thought for a moment, then finally said, "There's something I need your help with."

"what?"

"I need you and some of UTA's big-name artists to support my acquisition. This will help me lower the price! Also, I acquired Pirates of the Caribbean from Disney. Johnny Depp is the lead actor... I'll ask Depp to sign a binding agreement to lock in his salary for Pirates of the Caribbean, with me. But this isn't something I can handle personally. It's best to have an intermediary, and you're perfect for it! You can tell him that Ian Carr is very optimistic about Pirates of the Caribbean and use this opportunity to sign a long-term contract!"

Johnny Depp's later acting fees were incredibly high, just like Robert Downey Jr.'s fee for playing Iron Man - as many people know, Iron Man died because of Downey's pay.

This is why Marvel later signed long-term contracts to make it difficult to raise prices at will, and Ian would definitely do the same.

Even if he doesn't shoot the film himself, these contracts can be sold for money.

Jennifer looked at him with her beautiful eyes, her voice as gentle as water: "And then?"

Ian smiled slightly: "You will get the new contract you want."

Jennifer Connelly kissed Ian with satisfaction: "Don't think one night is enough. When I come to you, you can't refuse."

As she spoke, she slowly slid down.

Early in the morning, the phone rang.

Ian woke up drowsily from the soft fragrance and glanced at the beauty beside him.

After giving the beauty a light kiss, he took the phone: "It's me."

It was the secretary Ida's voice on the phone: "Something happened." "Where?" Ian regained some spirit.

"In Meihe, the union is planning a strike, so they're going to recruit Chinese workers for you." Ida knew Ian didn't like nonsense, so she spoke briefly.

Ian wasn't surprised by this: "Stay or leave?"

"Of course I stayed."

Ian laughed: "It's funny, isn't it? People who saved their jobs are angry about the use of Chinese workers?"

"Because they felt the Chinese workers were working too hard, and that put pressure on them."

Ian's face darkened. "This is ridiculous. Go tell Jody that we need to learn how to divide and exploit. There are always people who are in urgent need of money. Make them some promises and choose to keep those who perform well. All those who side with the union will be fired. Let them understand the consequences of opposing us. Also, give priority to the renovation of Davis Prison. Highways can be slow, but prisons cannot!"

Ida replied, "That could lead to further escalation. The union is not easy to deal with."

Ian sneered: "Am I easy to deal with? I've been busy with internal integration recently, so there's nothing big to report. I really need some big news."

In Ian's eyes, the news in the past period was not big news. At best, it just sold well, but had no "artistic value."

Even if you are a commercial director, you can't help but have an artistic heart.

Ida was shocked: "Mr. Karl, this is your business!"

"I'm even making news myself! Don't worry about this. Let them make a fuss if they want, but the construction can't be delayed. I need the Davis Prison project to be completed by the end of June."

"Good boss."

After instructing Ida, Ian stood up and sat up.

Think about it carefully.

He knew that those union guys would not give up so easily, and he had to find a way to deal with those leaders.

He picked up the phone. "Kreps, the Meihe Union has been a bit arrogant lately... No, I'm not asking you to kill someone. Don't be so impulsive, man. Am I such a bloodthirsty person?"

Kreps: "..."

I've been in the mafia for so many years, but I haven't killed as many people as you, okay? Boss!

I'm not impulsive at all!
Ian whispered, "Find some people to contact the union leaders and pay them to sabotage the construction."

"What did you say?" Kreps was stunned.

Ian smiled. "Just leave some evidence. We have to frame this as a union leader taking money to sabotage a legitimate project! Remember, sabotage is allowed, but not the kind that's difficult to repair. It should look grand... Well, sabotaging the highway is fine, not the prison project. This will also help distance us from each other, and then you can prepare a few scapegoats. There's no rush, take your time. Good news requires a controlled pace. Right now, Hollywood is the hot topic."

Kreps understood. "Okay, boss. What next?"

Ian chuckled. "Then Davis Prison will welcome its first customers, and they built it. That's interesting, isn't it?"

Kreps took a breath. Now that he knew Ian very well, he blurted out, "That would be good news."

Ian laughed out loud.

Looking back, Jennifer Connelly was looking at him in surprise.

Her red lips pursed, "I seem to have heard something I shouldn't have heard. Will you kill me to silence me?"

Ian smiled: "No, but I will ravage you severely and make you submit to my pressure!"

Connery chuckled and sat up, showing off his beautiful figure: "That is indeed impressive!"
