Exploiting Hollywood 1980

"So, the Gambino family did not report the subsequent investigation to Dino De Laurentiis?" Ronald asked the newly arrived private detective Mike Pike.

"They didn't want to anger Rudy. This time Rudy was cruel. The speakers or agents of the four major families were all prosecuted. Only the Gambino family was the most cunning and temporarily escaped the tracking of their speakers. . They counterattacked in a roundabout way because they were afraid of Rudy and sent a message not to push too hard. "

Mike Pike arrived in Los Angeles at night. He hadn't eaten yet and was stuffing a piece of pizza into his mouth.

"No wonder, I always feel that Dino is sure that you are the mastermind behind the scenes. It turns out that he only saw the arrest warrant of the crazy detective and the report that framed you. He didn't see the second internal investigation that dismissed the madman. Report." The agents suddenly realized.

"Everything will proceed as planned." The public relations consultant began to assign tasks.

"Ronald, can you pay for my plane ticket?" McPike ate the last piece of pizza with satisfaction, and then took a sip of hot coffee, which Aunt Karen brewed for him.

"I had a falling out with my boss, and my pension hasn't been paid yet. Now I have to work as a private detective. Money is very tight, so you'd better settle it in cash."

"Okay," Ronald laughed heartily, pulled McPike into the small room next to him, found his checkbook, and asked, "How much should I pay you?"

"In addition to my share, you also have to give a share to the undercover agent in the Gambino family. Because he could not be exposed, he was also arrested by Rudy, and his bail cost a lot of money. He has no income, and his mother Hospitalization is also expensive.

I also fell out with the boss of NYPD because I wanted him to get the income and promotion he deserved. These people only want to use undercover agents and don't give them what they deserve. "

The undercover agent that McPike had direct contact with had climbed to a relatively high-level position in the Gambino family and was said to be working under the second-in-command John Gotti. That's why this time, he was asked to get Ronald's documents stolen by Gotti's insider inside the nypd and send them to Los Angeles.

Ronald wrote the number McPike requested on the check and handed it to him, "Say hello to your friend for me. What's his name?"

"The name is top secret." McPike shook his head. Even when he discussed the undercover agent with his boss, he didn't call him by name, but called him by his code name 4587. "

"This is what happened exactly. Ronald was framed by the black sheep within the NYPD and was treated unfairly. Afterwards, the NYPD discovered the problem, launched an internal investigation, and cleared my client's name. This is their final document."

Lindsay Dole, during a news conference, holds the original manuscripts of the two documents and shows them to reporters.

"Click, click", the photographer kept pressing the shutter to capture this dramatic scene.

"This is the certificate that the NYPD Southern District awarded to my client later. It is a model of police-civilian cooperation."

"I would like to ask Ronald, what do you think of the groundless suspicion and slander against you before?"

This is a well-managed media, taking the lead in asking questions to set the tone of the press conference.

"I feel very innocent. I am one of the victims. Fortunately, the NYPD and the prosecutors in the Southern District are all upholding justice and they cleared me.

I don’t know why it took so long, and when I was about to forget about this incident, someone came out to frame me again.

I just want to say one thing to them: don’t do such boring things again. "

"Ronald, do you have anything to say to Miss Michelle Pfeiffer?"

Another reporter came up to ask questions.

"I just hope that this incident will not disturb her peaceful married life again. She is a very good actor and needs privacy. I hope you will not disturb her too much with this ridiculous incident. "

"Brooke Shields was interviewed in New Jersey. She also admitted that you had a crush on each other and had dated several times. She also said that she did not believe that you were a bad person who would blackmail women. Do you have anything to say to her?"

"This doesn't seem to have anything to do with the things to be clarified in this press conference, right?"

"Hahaha……"

The reporters burst into laughter. This former number one girl in America was once the focus of pursuit by all her rumored boyfriends.

"Don't you want to respond to her comment?"

"I wish her to fulfill her dream and graduate from Princeton as soon as possible."

"Ronald, former child star Diane Lane, was also interviewed in New York, saying that not only were you not the one who kidnapped her, but on the contrary, you were the one who helped her escape from the confinement of personal freedom in Tennessee and become truly independent. "What do you want to say to her?"

"Ah...?" Ronald did not expect that Diane would also be interviewed.

"What did she say?" Didn't you tell her not to get involved in this matter?

"She said you are America's true hero and no one should slander a good person like you."

"Oh, then help me thank her for the compliment."

"Hahaha……"

After the press conference, Ronald returned to his apartment and began to call back all the friends who had called to express his concern and thank them one by one.

The TV is showing footage of Michelle Pfeiffer being interviewed on a talk show.

"So you were deceived?"

"Yes, how should I put it? The little money I earned from filming TV series was spent on their expensive vegetable juices. If I hadn't met Ronald, I might have been exploited by them for a long time."

"It seems that you are very familiar with him? Then what do you think of the controversy caused by his recent comments on the movie Dragon Year?"

In order to achieve good communication without involving the past of the two, the host also lightly touched it and moved away from the focus.

"I went to see the movie later. How should I put it? I think it is not good or at least impolite to publicly publicize unfriendly names for a certain ethnic group in a movie unless it is absolutely necessary for the plot."

"I will donate some money to Chinatown and the Asian team, and use my name to add more fuel to the Dragon Year." Ronald said to Lawrence while watching TV and drinking red wine.

"Okay, after your help this time, the matter is now big enough. Many newspapers and TV are interviewing Chinatown residents. The stereotype that slanders Chinatown as full of illegal violence is also being eliminated. The people in Chinatown are very grateful to you and want to thank you in person."

"Okay, let's have morning tea together when we have time. The dim sum there is very good." Ronald smiled. It seems that this time the impact on Chinatown's business has been minimized.

"Damn it, Gotti actually played me and didn't give me the second document." Dino De Laurentiis threw his red wine glass to the ground after watching Ronald's press conference.

He originally wanted to use it to threaten Ronald to stop fighting and say something good about his own Year of the Dragon. He had evidence of his evil deeds in his hands, so he could play with him slowly, and after he took the bait, he would make him pay more. For example, at least let him sign a few film contracts and exploit the value.

However, as a Naples native, he dared not vent his anger on the five major New York families who immigrated from Sicily.

"Cancel all marketing budgets for the Year of the Dragon and public relations efforts against Chinatown opposition, and let Cimino bear the anger of the Chinese alone."

He was so angry that he had to vent it on Cimino who was shooting randomly.

"Laurentis Productions apologizes for the dissatisfaction of Chinese people caused by the Year of the Dragon. The company's president, Mr. Dino De Laurentiis, told reporters that Michael Cimino had the final editing rights for the film. Out of respect for the artist, he did not review the content of the final editing version, which caused this incident.

Laurentis Productions will release a re-edited version of the videotape at the right time, which will cut out all the uncomfortable content."

The next morning, Ronald finally got good news. The Hollywood Reporter published a clarification from Dino De Laurentiis's interview.

"Brother Ronnie, what I said during the interview was good, right? You can see that many newspapers are quoting my words on the front page now."

Diane called from New York to take credit for Ronald.

"A true Hollywood hero"

"A hero who saved the popular actress Pfeiffer from a vegetarian scammer."

"Brooke Shields, is it possible to reunite with Ronald, a real Hollywood hero?"

"Don't accept interviews rashly in the future, Diane. If something goes wrong, it will affect you." Ronald was still a little worried about Diane's interview. After all, it involved her mother's attempt to keep her privacy, and it would not be a good thing to be exposed.

"It's okay, I know my limits, I just want to help you."

After hanging up the phone, Ronald felt relieved. Now that the misunderstandings have been cleared up, he is still a good person in the eyes of the public.

The ubiquitous media portrayed Ronald as a good American youth, and many newspapers used the title of a true hero. After all, it was a hero saving a beauty from a bad guy, and the public was also very interested in this kind of story.

"Ronald, Ronald, do you still have feelings for Pfeiffer? How did you break up?"

"Is it possible for you to get back together with Brooke Shields? American audiences want to know!"

As soon as Ronald went out, he was surrounded by reporters. Everyone wanted to know the progress of his scandal with the popular star.

"Tell me about it? Is it possible for you to work on a movie with Pfeiffer?"

"Brooke was interviewed in New Jersey and said she didn't believe you would do such a bad thing. Do you have anything to say to her? When will you go to Princeton to see her?"

"No comment, no comment."

Ronald was a little confused by being surrounded. There weren't so many reporters around when filming movies before? Besides, shouldn't you continue to dig into the grievances between me and the director Cimino of the Dragon Year, or talk about how I was wronged?

Why do you all like to gossip?

Ronald, who fled in a panic, returned to the apartment and quickly called his agent.

"Nicita, I have to go out and hide. Brooke and Pfeiffer are too popular now."

Brooke has always been a top female star and model. It's just that her popularity has dropped a little since she went to college, but American audiences have not forgotten her. This time, when she talked about dating Ronald, the public's enthusiasm for gossip about her was ignited again.

Pfeiffer is an actress. Her private life is not exposed to the public much. The audience can only watch her performance through a few movies such as "Scarface" and "Eagle and Wolf" which was just released this year.

This time she suddenly accepted an interview and exposed her pre-marriage and ex-boyfriend situation, which suddenly burst out the audience's long-accumulated curiosity.

The attention of the two people, superimposed on Ronald at the same time, means that he can't even leave the door.

"Well, you should stay away. Now your two movies are still far from being released, which is not good for the box office. As a director, you don't need this kind of star-like attention. Tell me where you want to go on vacation and I will arrange it for you."
