Chapter 176 Good Idea

Agreement?Adrian raised his head and finally remembered after a while, Oh, yes, you said yesterday that you wanted to introduce someone to me... but didn't say it's now Ah?

It's not true, but if I didn't come to see you in the hotel cafe at 10 o'clock.Weinstein spread his hands again with some helplessness.

OK, it's me wrong.Adrian was so happy, then, wait for me a little, I have to take some time to dress and...

He pointed to the bedroom, and the words he didn't say were self-evident. Weinstein shrugged and left after making a gesture of please don't be late.

Hey, sweetheart, I have to say sorry... Adrian walked into the bedroom and was robbed before he finished speaking: Yes, I know, you have something to do, I heard it.

Zoe, who had already changed her clothes and sat on the chair, said carelessly, looking a little dissatisfied with her mouth tilted, but she was also cute. Then she sighed exaggeratedly: It's normal, men are like this. Once the woman is put on the bed, the sweet words she said before will soon disappear.

Oh Zoe, it really makes me sad that you say that. It's so heartbreaking.

Adrian sighed exaggeratedly, then squatted down in front of her with a smile, and put her hand in his hand: Okay, sweetheart, I just have a small date, it won't waste too much time. You can wait for me here first, or go to the ski resort first, I will be there soon, I promise.

As he said that, he leaned over and kissed her on the lips: You are one of the sweetest and cutest girls I have ever seen, how could I bear to ignore you?

However, my mom told me to never believe a playboy’s words. I made a mistake once yesterday and can’t make it again today.Zoe said seriously.

OK, it seems I should find a way to prove my sincerity.Adrian grabbed his head, glanced at the time next to him and smiled. It just so happened that we still have some time.

Zoe showed a puzzled look, but after Adrian reached out to unbutton her clothes, he understood and immediately beat him down: Stop, you bastard, wasn't it enough last night?

Having said that, she giggled and her face also showed a delicate blush, so Adrian quickly peeled off her top.

But Zoe didn't want to make him succeed so easily, and then giggled and played hide and seek in the bedroom. Unfortunately, these tricks in front of the experienced Adrian were useless. When she wanted to climb over the bed, he suddenly pounced on her and pressed her under her body. Then she pulled off her pants in a few seconds amid her screams, and her white and tender buttocks were immediately exposed to the air.

Ed, you cheated... Zoe shouted in annoyance, but before he could fully scream, his mouth was blocked.

Under Adrian's teasing, the two kissed passionately. Then, before Zoe was stripped naked, Adrian spread her legs and pressed them down, and the unique morning fortune between men and women began to moan.

Morning sex actually has many benefits, especially winter morning sex, which can make people have a good condition faster, so Adrian was energetic when he went downstairs to the hotel cafe.

Weinstein was already waiting there, and it seemed that he had been waiting for a lot of time, but looking at the time, he was not late.

What about the person you want to introduce, Harvey?Adrian asked in a relaxed tone after giving orders to the waiter.

He hasn't arrived yet.

Wayne Stein was a little embarrassed, and he went to remind Adrian, but Adrian was all down, and his friend hadn't come yet, but it should be almost there, and there were still a few minutes... Hey, he was there.

Immediately, Weinstein stood up and waved to the door and raised his voice: Mike, here.

Following his gaze, a very rich middle-aged man walked over here. His face was very fat or very fat. In the words of his previous life, he was a typical face with a font, wearing black-framed glasses, a circle of beards, and his upper limbs swinged very much when walking. He should be a very confident and even arrogant guy.

Sorry, Harvey, I thought it was at Haydn Café on Solam Street, so I was so sorry.The middle-aged man came over and apologized.

It doesn't matter, Ed and I have just sat down for a while.

Weinstein shook hands with him and introduced him, Ed, this is Michael Moore, a well-known documentary director and independent producer.Mike, this is Adrian Cowell, the famous director of miracle and... philanthropist.

Michael Moore?

Adrian narrowed his eyes quickly. The memories of his past life and his experience in this life made him quickly recall the message of this fat man. He shook hands and greeted the other party while staring at Weinstein.

Weinstein smiled silently and looked a little embarrassed. He also knew that this guy was a headache for the boss of a big business, so what else did he introduce him to him?

I'll just say it, Mr. Cowell.

After a few conversations, Adrian asked about the purpose in a vague way, Michael Moore directly put everything on the table. Not long ago, I talked with Harvey about an idea and a new documentary, and Harvey supported me very much.But this documentary involves many information that the government does not want the public to know, a lot of information about the disaster two years ago, so it will be hindered when it can be produced, and there will not be much investment that can be attracted, and then Harvey said you may be interested.

He didn't see it while talking, and Weinstein made a move to cover his head.

Information about 911?Adrian raised his eyebrows. As expected, he couldn't help but look at Weinstein again, and the other party secretly smiled.

Yes, after this disaster, many people hated Laden and Bush immediately retaliated against Afghanistan, but few people knew that the Bush family and the Laden family had very close contacts.

Moore started to get a little excited when he said this. Sorry, I can't come up with more information now, but I can be sure that the 9/11 incident is definitely not as simple as I imagined. There are many complex and shocking things in it. It is necessary for me to show what I have experienced to the public and tell them what I have experienced. This is a citizen's responsibility!

What...what should I say?Adrian shook his head disapprovingly, but he still kept a polite smile on the surface.

Mr. Moore, I want to remind you that Mr. Bush is the elected president. If he did this, neither Congress nor the people would let him go. Paper will never be able to cover the fire.

He said slowly.

Moore was stunned at first, probably because he didn't expect Adrian to understand what he meant so quickly, and his face changed slightly. He heard the slightest refusal in his words.

You are wrong, Mr. Cowell.

He strengthened his tone, and it was not paper that wrapped the flame, but an airtight container that would not know what was hidden inside if no one opened it, and what I had to do was to open it for the public, for all those who had the right to know the truth!

Evidence, Mr. Moore, you must prove with certain evidence that there is indeed such a container, and there is indeed a ball of fire in it, rather than speculating out of thin air, the jury will not convict a person for the reason that ‘no one can do this except him’.

Adrian spread his hands out.

Michael Moore's brow frowned, his eyes behind the lens were staring at Adrian, and after so long he finally stood up.

I knew that I could not rely on the conscience of rich people.

Moore said bluntly, and then patted Weinstein on the shoulder, Sorry, Harvey, wasting your kindness, but not everyone will still pay attention to what they are under their feet after their social status has improved. You are a good person, but not everyone is a good person.

After saying that, he strode out, Weinstein stood up and shouted several times, but he didn't look back once.

Adrian shook his head disapprovingly again, and did it very clearly. This guy was too self-righteous and thought he had mastered the truth, so it was difficult to listen to opinions that were opposed or not in line with his own ideas. Especially if this was the opinion given to him by a rich man and a super rich man, it was 100% wrong.

However, he had no disgust towards him, and of course he had no good feelings for him.

From the perspective of director and producer, Michael Moore is a competent and even outstanding documentary director. Not to mention anything else, the documentary about gun issues he produced last year, "Columbine's Bowling" on firearms, won him a lot of praise after it was released. By editing the Oklahoma bombing and interview clips of the Columbine High School massacre with news reports, speeches, and many shootings, it gave people a strong sense of impact, which probably also encouraged his ambitions, so he targeted the 911 incident.

In Adrian's view, Michael Moore is at best, but in the words of his previous life, he is a clear stream. The meaning of his existence is to pick and show himself by picking the government's thorns.

Because this kind of thing is very simple, and as long as you can grasp the bottom line, you don’t need to worry too much. Nothing is perfect. If you want to find it, you can always find loopholes. The government has always been the target, especially the US president, who plays a target.

It is easy to find problems, and solving them is the most important thing, but for the Qingliu people, this is neither what they are good at or what they want to manage. They just need to pick on the tricks.

Of course, some people will come up with some solutions, but they are basically all figured out with a slap in the head. If it is really implemented, it will only make things worse.

Of course, the Qingliu people will definitely not admit this. They will only make excuses. If there is a problem, the solution is not implemented.

In addition, although Michael Moore's documentary raises sharp questions, it is not necessarily true to say how fair it is.

Documentaries are also made by people, and people always have their own positions and desires. Take "Fahrenheit 911" which is still in his head for example. It doesn't matter if the relationship between the Bush family and the Laden family is revealed, and it doesn't matter if there is a problem with the collapse of the World Trade Center, but it doesn't matter if it is said that this is done by the US government...

As mentioned before, this may be possible, but the probability is very low, so low that it can be ignored, because once it is confirmed, the foundation of the founding of the United States is likely to be shaken.

But in my memory, the documentary just said that the government itself directed the disaster, but all the evidence, such as the vault transferred under the WTO, or the military's plan to defend the WTO, are all specious.

If it were Adrian, if he really wanted to do something for the victims for this country, he would definitely be dereliction of duty by the government.

There is no doubt that the government must have received information in advance, but for some reasons, it interfered in the Middle East or sniped the euro, etc., allowing terrorists to act, resulting in huge disasters.

As long as these things are confirmed, the government must be despised, and Bush is likely to become the fourth impeached president.

But Moore made such a conspiracy theory. If it weren't for today's meeting that gave Adrian an intuitive impression of him, he might have thought he was an undercover agent of the CIA or the FBI.

Of course, he would do this Adrian also understood that a complete idealist would either die early or change himself after he was struck by the blood in society.

But Moore finally had some positive significance, at least let the public look at certain issues from another perspective, and regardless of whether what is said is true, he is indeed very brave to say it.

Hell, how could it be like this?Weinstein sat back on his seat and sighed with his head in his arms.

Your relationship with Michael Moore seems to be very good.Adrian asked calmly.

Yes, Miramax helped him release the movie in 1999.Weinstein explained, then sighed heavily.

OK, Harvey, don't tell me, you support him in making 911 documentaries because of conscience.Adrian no longer went around in circles and teased without hesitation.

Why can't I find my conscience?

Weinstein immediately asked, but then raised his hands, "Okay, I just think this subject is very valuable, especially after Mike told me about his idea, it may still be a bit rough, but it will definitely cause a sensation after it is made."

He blinked at this point: By the way, you can also give the President a little color.

Although he joined the Bush family in the end of 2000 because of the acquisition of AT&T Bradband and made some efforts when Bush finally hit the presidential throne, it has gradually faded and even turned cold after more than a year.

Claude and the Godfather are more inclined toward the Democratic Party, and compared to the White House, the news group that has a closer relationship with the government, is inevitable.

Weinstein knew about these things. After all, when he asked him to help with public relations before, Adrian granted him full authority and allowed him to fully mobilize resources. Although he could not understand some confidential things, he still knew a little bit about the changes in his relationship with the Bush family.

This is why Weinstein said that. He also supports the Democratic Party and can use this excuse to pull Adrian in. Of course, this is definitely not his only reason.

Yeah?

Adrian smiled unanimously, "Not only that, Harvey, this is a good opportunity to enhance Miramax's reputation. Doing things that other film companies dare not do, and by the way, we can also endorse you."

Weinstein laughed twice, not feeling embarrassed because his little thoughts were revealed.

You gave me a difficult problem, Harvey.Adrian sits upright, you should know how much trouble this is.

I just hope AC Media can provide some support in distribution, that's all.Weinstein explained.

This is the problem.

Adrian tapped on the table. After all, we are big companies. Even if we appear in a neutral state, we have to consider the government's reaction in such matters, especially after 9/11.

Weinstein remained silent, and Adrian knew that this would not convince him. It has always been their brother's wish to make Miramax bigger and stronger. If the documentary conceived by Moore can be successfully released, it will definitely cause a sensation, and Miramax, who can do things that other major film companies cannot do, is even more dazzling.

In his previous life, the reason why the Weinstein brothers turned against Eisner and finally ran away from Miramax was because they released "Fahrenheit 911" without authorization, so it was almost impossible for him to give up.

However, this road is not open, and there is another way to go.

Want to hear my advice?Adrian asked leisurely after a while.

certainly.

Weinstein's eyes lit up. Without the endorsement of a powerful group like AC Media, Miramax would not be able to withstand the huge pressure of separate issuance, so even if there is a slight chance to obtain Adrian's support, he would find a way to fight for it.

It's very simple, you can continue to invest in this documentary by Mr. Moore, and it can be done very well. If it exceeds the budget, I can help with some of it.

Adrian smiled badly when he said this, and then took the documentary to attend next year's Cannes Film Festival.

Weinstein was stunned at first, and then slowly opened his mouth.

I like this idea!He smirked like Adrian on his face.

With the French's usual urinary nature, he will never miss any chance to give the US government a look, so Mr. Moore has a high chance of winning a Palme d'Or. Therefore, it is much easier to release a documentary with a huge reputation in the United States. In fact, this is how Fahrenheit 911 was done in the past life.

But there is one thing I want to make clear.Adrian suddenly stretched out his finger and shook it. I didn't know about this from beginning to end!

Um?Weinstein, who had not reacted, was stunned again.

So, when Miramax releases this documentary, AC Media will give you some accusations and plan to punish you for your own actions, and Claude has certain conflicts with your brothers.

Adrian said slowly and word by word.

Speaking of this, how could Weinstein not understand what he meant, just...

This is not fair, Ed!He shouted with a bitter face, his fat face wrinkled.

This world is unfair, Harvey.Adrian laughed.
