All Heavens Film and Television: Starting from Caring for the Widow of a Comrade-in-arms

As far as Russell was concerned, Moglin was a little man, and the people behind him could cause him the slightest trouble.

Philisto contacted people in New York and monitored the Corleone family.And Nelly went to Las Vegas alone. After he arrived, he didn't contact anyone. He just waited for a long time at the Corleone construction site, and then set his sights on Mogreen.

This man is a guy who enjoys himself. He sits in a tent drinking coffee during the day while supervising work, with two blond beauties by his side, and goes to various massage parlors to relax at night.

Nelly didn't do anything that night. In the early morning, Mogreen came out of the massage place. Just as he was about to pull the car door, Nelly rushed out from the side. First, he shot Mogreen in the heart twice, and then turned the gun around. Three shots were fired at the driver.

After securing the driver's death, Nelly stuffed Moglin into the back seat of the car, stepped to the front driver's seat, dragged the driver out of the car, and drove away.

At the construction site of the Caesars Palace Hotel, a car stopped at the gate, and Nelly disappeared immediately.

Upon hearing this, Kerns, the construction site manager, immediately ran out of the office. When he saw Mo Green's body, he shouted in panic, "He hired Carlo to blow up six of our workers!"

Shocked, the workers yelled, "Damn Mogreen! The state troopers are doing it right!"

Afterwards, the news quickly spread throughout Las Vegas. Many people knew that Mogreen was a member of Corleone, the godfather of the New York mafia, so they all had the mentality of watching the excitement.

But they waited for a few days, not only did not wait for Corleone's revenge, but they heard that Vito's son Freddy came to the construction site of the Caesars Palace Hotel in person and paid cash compensation to the dead and injured workers.

This meant that Vito Corleone relented.

Everyone didn't expect this result, and guessed that the boss behind Caesars Palace must have a relationship with a big man in Washington, or someone from a newly rich family or consortium.

Several owners of large casinos paid a special visit to the governor, and then left the governor's residence in cold sweat.

Fortunately, they didn't send anyone to make trouble at the construction site of Caesars Palace... Otherwise, whether they would be able to continue to enjoy themselves in the world would be another matter.

After this incident, the construction went very smoothly. The hotel project, which was originally scheduled to be completed in half a year, was completed in only four months.

During this period, Russell and Vito had several phone calls. At first they talked about Mogreen's affairs. Vito didn't raise any questions, because he knew exactly what Mogreen was up to.

Vito didn't take his death seriously, but he worried about his former subordinate Hymen Rose.

"Haimen Russell is insidious and cunning. He once served as my military adviser with Banco. His style of doing things is very tactful. Most of the people who worked with him died, and in the end he exclusively enjoyed the benefits."

Russell heard the words and asked with a smile: "You are not angry with my actions, it seems that you understand what Mogreen is going to do. Now your property is managed by Sonny, what does he think?"

Vito sighed: "It's hard for me to tell you about Sonny. If you and Sonny have a conflict of interest after I'm buried, I hope you let him go for the sake of our friendship."

"Don't say that, Uncle Vito. Sonny is a very affectionate person, and I'm sure he won't cause trouble for me."

Vito was silent for a while, and said, "I'm afraid he will be used by others."

"Hymen Ross? Well, you'll have to remind him then. Better get Tom and Mike to give him some advice, especially as to me."

This topic can't go any further.

If we continue talking, the feeling will dissipate.

With the Moglin incident, Vito understood and agreed with Russell's behavior, but the people headed by Sonny refused.

In their eyes, Mogreen is their spokesperson in Las Vegas. If you kill him, isn't that a slap in the face?

Even if he is wrong, shouldn't you say hello?Or leave it to us?

In short, everyone has their own ideas, and the purpose is of course for profit.

Now the Corleone family in New York is disgraced, and Corleone in Sicily is taking advantage of the trend, scaring the black and white people from showing their heads.

Sonny must feel aggrieved, the family's formal business has been given to Russell, but he still wants to come to Las Vegas to grab their business.

Before hanging up the phone, Russell reminded Vito.

"Basini colluded with Mogreen before his death. Your son Freddy became Mogreen's follower in Las Vegas. Some time ago, your son-in-law Carlo came to Las Vegas, and Mogreen personally entertained him. This is what Freddie told me, did he tell you, or Sonny?"

Vito froze for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "Thank you, Russell..."

He felt powerless about it, unable to imagine what the family would be like after his death, would the family continue under Sonny's management?Can he get rid of his impulsive personality so that he can think seriously when encountering things?

Hard to say...

And Russell was just young, his subordinates were able to handle affairs, and his career was developing rapidly.

In addition to opening a hotel in Las Vegas, he also engaged in film investment and news media in California.

The film industry is a new thing. In the past, not many people made films because they really didn't make money.

Only after the sound films appeared on the big screen, people became interested, attracted a large number of movie-loving audiences, and provided people with an extra entertainment in their spare time.

Russell bought several lands in Hollywood, California, planning to build hotels, office buildings, and shopping malls... He chose a very precise location, just near the future Avenue of Stars.

And set up Kaqimansha film industry, brokerage company, fashion magazine, and signed a group of beauties with good looks.

Chapter 162 Invasion of Hollywood, brother-in-law shot and killed brother-in-law

In late November 1946, the Caesars Palace Hotel was completed.

Officially opened in early December, this hotel includes accommodation, catering, shopping, cinema, swimming pool, gym...etc.

On the left side of the hotel is an eight-story palace-style building, which is a large casino.

It took three months to recruit waiters, croupiers, and managers, that is, the operation began after the main frame was completed, otherwise it would not be possible to open for business within ten days after completion.

The main responsibilities are Philisto and Nelly, with Kerns as the head of security.

The business was very good when it first opened, because the business license of this casino and hotel was issued by the governor himself, and the members of the legislature also came to support it. For this reason, there was a wave of publicity in the newspapers, which directly made it famous.

The decorations of the hotels and casinos are indeed magnificent, which can be described as resplendent and resplendent, and there are also girls who specialize in drinking, all of whom are very beautiful.

Within two weeks of its opening, the casino raked in $600 million, allowing Russell to return [-]% of his investment in Las Vegas!

Christmas is coming, and the number of tourists in Las Vegas has increased, but there are also more hotels and entertainment venues for them to choose.While the competition was fierce, no one was bothering with Caesars Palace.

Everyone knows that the boss of Caesars Palace is unusual, he is a figure who makes the governor and congressmen bow down.

Russell took Marlena to stay in the hotel for a few days. Marlena was very curious about these things. Looking at the chips on the poker table, she also played Texas Hold'em with itchy hands.

When she returned to Bell City, Malena designed and made a chip suit and dress, Russell patted his forehead and felt helpless.

"Honey, can this suit be featured in the first issue of a fashion magazine?"

Russell did not refuse, just said: "As long as you are happy."

This suit is not ugly, but it makes Russell very awkward. It has a feeling of "whitening" printed on the socks in reality...

I have to feel that fashion is really a reincarnation.

1947 1 Month 1 Day.

The first issue of Mansa Fashion Magazine is officially released.

On the same day, Billy Gough, the president of the film union, ordered that every studio must buy two magazines to watch. The reason is also very good: as a filmmaker, you must apply fashion to the film, and fashion magazines lead the trend!

The cover of the magazine and the models wearing the 'Kaqi Mansha' brand clothing are all contracted artists of Kaqi Films Brokerage Company.

Fashion magazines are priced at 5 US dollars each, which is not expensive for those who yearn for entertainment and movie stars. On the contrary, they are secretly delighted that they can admire so many cool and charming beauties at once...

Russell believes that since it is the first issue, it is necessary to open up the market quickly and make it difficult for men to fall asleep in the middle of the night and wake up in the morning. This is a marketing method of memory points, which will have a wide audience in the future.

Moreover, the character on the cover photo of the first issue is Vivien Leigh, who starred in her debut film "Thriving" in 1935, and won the 38th Oscar for Best Actress in 12 with "Gone with the Wind".

But after starring in "Broken Blue Bridge" in 1940, she gradually retired from the film industry and returned to the UK to develop stage plays.

In order to find her, Russell asked Oncost to go to England to invite her. At first, she didn't give face, and asked a British duke to come forward, and she agreed to take the cover photo.

The pictures were also taken in the UK and flown back to Hollywood.

It is worth mentioning that Marilyn Monroe, the heroine of the underground upskirt door incident, officially debuted in July 46.

The first periodical sold more than 3 copies in just one week, and it was exported to eastern New York, Boston, Chicago and other regions.

When filming a movie in Hollywood and worrying about not being able to find a suitable role, some directors noticed the models in the fashion magazines and immediately fell in love with them. Then they asked someone to contact the deputy editor-in-chief of Mansa Fashion, and only then did they learn that the models were all cards A signed artist of Qi Brokerage Company.

Then these directors came to the door to select candidates, discussed cooperation with the person in charge of the brokerage company, signed a contract, paid remuneration, and the artists officially started their acting career.

Russell had thought of such an industrial chain when he was laying out Hollywood, but such a smooth development must be inseparable from his reputation in the three states.

After the movies played by the artists were released, they quickly captured the attention and favor of a large number of fans. The main reason was that they dared to take off their clothes, and Mansha Fashion set up a department dedicated to taking pictures of the artists.

The photos of these artists are the comfort of men in the middle of the night...

With the release of fashion magazines, the sales of Kaqimansha brand clothing have also increased, especially the sales of stockings and skirts, which have skyrocketed!

The factory's orders are scheduled until June, and at the same time, Kaqi Mansha has become the standard clothing for stars to attend events.

If you don't wear Kaqimansha at an event, you don't pay enough attention to it, and you will be despised and ridiculed by the audience, fans and organizers.

Fashion magazines are released at the beginning of each month, and after the third issue was released, the sales volume quickly exceeded 10.

This stems from the fact that the models have become popular artists after their debut, and the number of fans and audience has increased.

And the magazine has also become a direct train for many people who want to become popular. They want to be signed by Kaqi's agency, so that they can be featured in the magazine and become models. If they are spotted by the film director, then half the success is achieved!

Every day, there are people squatting at the door of the brokerage company, looking forward to the patronage of scouts, hoping to sign a contract successfully.

However, since the brokerage company has many popular artists, newcomers have become more cautious, and the threshold for signing conditions has also been raised.

Originally Russell wanted Marlena to be the editor-in-chief of a fashion magazine, but after wandering around Hollywood, Marlena shook her head and refused.

She still wants to stay at home with her children. She doesn't know much about fashion, and at the same time, she knows in her heart that Russell's effective guidance is the reason why she can design so many fashionable new styles of clothing.

"Marlena, what exactly is your ideal?"

In the end, Russell couldn't hold back and asked.

Marlena put her arms around his neck, stared at him with a smile and said, "My ideal is to spend my old age with you in peace, and my children grow up healthily."

In the past, his dream of Marlena was to have his own clothing store. Later, with the development, he felt that Marlena wanted to have her own clothing brand...

Sure enough, women's ideas are changeable.

"Honey, it's time we had a serious talk."

Russell nodded: "You say."

"About Vittorio going to school."

Russell frowned and said, "Isn't this matter settled long ago? Send him back to Sicily when he is six years old, and let Sylvana accompany him then."

Marina said: "But when Vittorio was six years old, Kaqi and Mansha were also five years old."

"How about we go back to Sicily then?"

"……it is good."

Vittorio was born in September 43. He was just over 9 years old at this time, and he was still two years away from going to school.

Marlena wanted to inquire about Russell's thoughts in advance, but she didn't expect him to agree so easily.

"My dear, what will happen to the American business when we return to Sicily?"

Russell said with a smile: "I didn't manage much at first. It was Philisto, Roy and others who were watching, and the company was managed by professional managers. You see, I haven't been to Las Vegas very much recently. wrong?"

Marina said playfully: "It must be that there are no new strippers in Las Vegas!"

"Haha, don't you like watching it?"

"I don't like it, that kind of dance is too... unrestrained!"

Russell got up and took her arm and walked towards the room.

"What? During the day!"

"What happened during the day, it's not like I haven't done it."

Malena had some reluctance on her face, but her body leaned towards Russell, and followed him into the room.

"How about you choose one, and then I will be the pole?"

Marlena was stunned when she heard that, "What?"

"I'm the pole, you're the dancer."

"Honey...there is no light in the daytime, it doesn't look good when you dance."

"Draw the curtains."

Life in Bell City is very leisurely. On weekdays, I take the children camping, or go to the lake to fry fish, or farm and make wine.

The businesses in Las Vegas and Hollywood are handled by special personnel. Russell only needs to look through the reports every month. Falsified accounts cannot escape his eyes, because he is a professional in false accounts.

As for New York... things are not looking good.

XNUM X Year X NUM X Month.

Felix, who was in charge of trading in New York, called with news of Sonny's death.
