Hearing Kestel's words, Hanks was shocked, and his face was extremely ugly. The anger in his heart rushed out like a volcanic eruption. He pointed at Xiao Yunhai and Kestel and scolded, "You two are working together to trick me. You want to turn people's attention to Paramount to save the image of the amusement park, right?"
Xiao Yunhai shook his head and said, "Mr. Hanks, you don't have to be angry. We don't believe that Paramount is the murderer. We just said that you are the most suspicious now."
Kestel said, "Mr. Hanks, don't be impatient. The most important thing now is that our three companies should unite sincerely and find out the murderer behind the scenes as soon as possible."
Hanks was so angry that he laughed and said, "Paramount didn't have an accident, and we didn't send anyone to do it. It has nothing to do with us."
Xiao Yunhai said, "Mr. Hanks, Hesol finished his work and went to Paramount to work. When he died, your people happened to be there. You are the one who benefits the most from the accident in our amusement parks. Mr. Hanks, is it possible for you to say that it has nothing to do with you? "
Hanks snorted and said, "If you think that we sent Ramon to do it, please show us the evidence. If you don't have evidence, don't harass Paramount. "
Xiao Yunhai frowned and said, "Mr. Hanks, you are too irresponsible. You are so uncooperative, which makes us suspect that you want to cover up something. "
"You …" Hanks was so angry that his chest heaved up and down. He looked at Xiao Yunhai fiercely like a knife. If eyes could kill, Xiao Yunhai would have become a hedgehog.
The three big shots in Hollywood could shake the world's entertainment circle by stamping their feet. Now they were arguing in front of the reporters. They didn't have the chance to see this scene on normal days. They were all excited to take pictures.
Hanks was not an ordinary person. He forcibly restrained the anger in his heart and sneered, "Good, very good. Congratulations on successfully dragging me into the water. I will fully cooperate with this case. However, friends, I want to announce one thing now. Assassin, a billion-yuan film invested by Paramount last year, will be released worldwide on June 28. Please support it. Well, today's press conference is over. "
After that, Hanks glared at Xiao Yunhai and Kestel and left the scene angrily.
When the reporters below the stage heard Hanks' words, they all trembled and looked at Xiao Yunhai in unison.
"I remember that the costume blockbuster 'Battle of Red Cliff', which was invested by Kung Fu Xiao, is also released on June 28th, right?"
"That's right. It's obvious that Paramount is taking revenge on Xiao Yunhai. Haha, they're too stubborn. "
"I heard that this Assassin is very good. The actors are all big names in Hollywood. Kungfu Xiao is in big trouble this time."
"They're all victims. Why are they fighting among themselves?"
"This is not an internal fight. Disney is fine, but Kungfu Xiao and Paramount are like fire and water. Don't forget that they have a $20 billion bet. "
After Hanks left, Xiao Yunhai became the focus of the reporters.
"Mr. Xiao, will you accept the battle between Assassin and Battle of Red Cliff that Mr. Hanks mentioned?"
Xiao Yunhai said in a deep voice, "They're already at my door. Will I be a coward?"
"Then do you think you can win? Can you predict the box office of Battle of Red Cliff? "
Xiao Yunhai said, "My goal was $2 billion before, but I don't know now. As for whether I can win or not, haha, I'm already in an invincible position. Battle of Red Cliff is divided into two parts. After the first part was released in Asia, it has already earned more than 7 billion Hua Xia dollars. Not only did I recoup my investment, but I also made more than 1 billion. Even if I'm defeated in Europe and America, I won't lose anything. Humph, you should be worried about Mr. Hanks now. Even if both sides suffer, he'll still be the loser. “
"Mr. Xiao, what do you think of Mr. Hanks's response to the amusement park incident?"
Xiao Yunhai said coldly, "Extremely stupid."
"Mr. Kestel, in the accident at Marvel Kids Land, Mr. Xiao gave the parents of the injured child 10 million dollars as compensation. Now, in your Disneyland, a six-year-old girl has lost her life. How much will you compensate the child's parents? "
Kestel said, "I'll talk to the child's parents about this problem. Sigh, if I can exchange the child's life, I'm willing to pay 1 billion dollars. "
"Okay."
Kestel's words won the unanimous approval of everyone.
The corner of Xiao Yunhai's mouth twitched slightly, and he said in his heart, "This old fellow clearly doesn't want to give them so much compensation, but he can still say it so beautifully. As expected of an old fox from Hollywood.
Xiao Yunhai said, "I'm sorry, everyone. I still have something to do. Let's end the interview here."
After leaving the Paramount press conference, Xiao Yunhai and Kestel said goodbye and returned to the hotel.
Perhaps it was because he was tired, Xiao Yunhai took a bath, laid on the bed, and fell asleep in a short while.
At this time, the Internet was in an uproar.
"F * ck, this is like shooting a suspense movie."
"Who has a grudge against Marvel, Disney, and Paramount? They don't have a good relationship to begin with. Is there a need for others to pick? "
"Do you think the murderer is Paramount?"
"I don't think so. Hanks can't be so stupid."
"That's hard to say. From the video, I feel that Hanks doesn't seem to be interested in finding the murderer. "
"The person above is stupid. Hanks is angry. This has nothing to do with him, but Marvel and Disney dragged him into it. How can he not be angry? "
"This is great. The $20 billion bet between '2012' and 'Resident Evil' hasn't even started yet. 'Assassin' and 'Battle of Red Cliffs' are going to start on June 28th. It's really one wave after another. "
"Haha, I like to see this kind of tit for tat."
After the American netizens saw the video of the three Hollywood bigshots' press conferences, they were all very excited. In less than an hour, there were hundreds of thousands of posts on various famous forums.
Xiao Yunhai slept for a while. In a daze, he heard the phone on the bed ring.
He opened his eyes and saw that it was Raúl, who had been staying at the police station.
Xiao Yunhai pressed the answer button and asked, "Raúl, do you have any leads?"
Raúl said, "Boss, things are not going to be easy. Hesol committed suicide by drinking drugs. When Paramount's men went, he was already dead. In the past half a month, there was no call record on his phone. Other than Disney paying him a salary, there was no extra money in his bank account. In short, the other party did it very cleanly. We can't find any clues. "
Xiao Yunhai frowned and said, "If he did it for money, he shouldn't have committed suicide. If it's for revenge, it's even more impossible. I don't even know him. So what's the reason? "
Raúl said, "Maybe it's for money. The police found a lot of drugs in his house. After asking at the hospital, they found out that this guy had a terminal illness. Even if he didn't commit suicide, he wouldn't live for more than a month. Three days ago, he had gone to Miami to see his son, who was living in poverty. I guess he thought that since he was going to die anyway, he might as well do something big before he died. Then, he gave the money to his son. "
Xiao Yunhai sighed and said, "Maybe. Raúl, let's not get involved in this matter anymore. Let the police take over. Our top priority now is how to get Marvel Kids Land to operate normally as soon as possible. Now that this has happened, it has affected us greatly. If I were an ordinary person, I definitely wouldn't bring my child to our amusement park to play. "
Raúl said, "Boss, Randi and I have discussed this problem. It's impossible to eliminate the negative impact of this matter in a short period of time. We can only take it slowly. Fortunately, Disney has the same problem this time, which makes our situation a lot better. In a few days, when we open the park, we can have a half-price discount. If you can invite some big Hollywood stars to bring their children to play, it'll be even better. In the United States, celebrities have more influence on ordinary people than the president. "
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "Okay, let's do that. Sigh, this time I owe them a lot. "
Raúl said, "Boss, you don't have to be too anxious. We only have two amusement parks in operation, and Disney has 46 parks in the country. With something like this happening, Kestel is the most anxious. "
Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "You're right. Kestel is probably angry right now. "
Xiao Yunhai and Raúl guessed correctly. Kestel was indeed angry.
Disney Pictures was one of the top three movie companies in Hollywood, not only because of their movies, but also because of the Disneyland parks in the United States.
Every year, 46 Disneyland parks brought in billions of dollars to Kestel. This was not included in Disney's revenue.
Although the park used the Disney brand, it was Kestel's own business. They had 100% shares and had nothing to do with the other Disney shareholders.
That was why Kestel was so anxious. If no one came for a week, it would be a loss of hundreds of millions.
After discussing with his subordinates, Kestel came up with the same idea as Xiao Yunhai. He also hoped to use stars to save the reputation.
However, compared to Xiao Yunhai, it was obviously more convenient for him. Disney Pictures had dozens of big stars. As a major shareholder, he only needed to say a word and everyone would give him face. There was no need to owe anyone any favors.
