Back backstage, Chen Qingqing smiled and said, "Yunhai, I was still worried that you wouldn't make it back in time."
Xiao Yunhai said, "How can that be? Anything can be delayed, but not our 'The Return of the Condor Heroes'. Oh right, Xiangyang, Binglu, when are you two planning to get married? "
Bai Binglu was stunned. She glanced at Chen Xiangyang and blushed. It made her look even more beautiful.
Chen Xiangyang seemed to be used to this kind of situation. He was much more thick-skinned and said, "Probably in the next few years. Brother Xiao, when we get married, you won't refuse to be our witness, right? "
Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "Of course, no problem. Haha, I haven't been a witness before. Director Chen, what should we do next? "
Chen Qingqing said, "Eat supper."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Then you have to treat us this time. Filming a TV series allowed you to find such a good daughter-in-law. You have to express your gratitude. "
Chen Qingqing laughed and said, "Of course. Let's go and eat. "
After the premiere at night, Yunqing TV Station would broadcast an episode of "The Return of the Condor Heroes." When Xiao Yunhai and the rest were eating, the TV station sent the good news that the highest viewership ratings had exceeded 10%.
Everyone was very happy and drank to their heart's content.
After dinner, Xiao Yunhai gave the plane to Zhao Wanqing. She was in a hurry to return to Hengdian to film. He returned to his grandfather's villa and slept for the night.
After staying at his grandfather's house for a day, Xiao Yunhai also went home.
…
In the United States, Los Angeles court, Wesley's tax evasion case was open to the public.
Other than Wesley and Franklin, there were countless business tycoons sitting in the audience.
The Bessie family sent Elvis, Vanessa, and Fu Roda. The Anderson family only sent Apollo. The rest were well-known figures on Wall Street.
With the agreement of both parties, the trial would be broadcasted on the Internet.
The Los Angeles government wanted to use it as a model to warn other Hollywood companies.
Before the trial started, Wesley stared at Franklin without blinking and said, "Why are you framing me? Franklin, you know what? I've always treated you as a friend. I'm very disappointed and regretful that you did this. If you have anything that can be used against you, you can say it now. I, Wesley, promise to give you justice. "
Franklin raised his head, chuckled, and said coldly, "Justice? There was no justice in this world. The law of the jungle was the law of Hollywood and even the entire United States. Wesley, those taxes went into your pocket, and you still say that I'm slandering you. What a joke. "
Franklin threw caution to the wind this time. There was no other way. The evidence of his commission was in the hands of the Anderson family. He had no other choice.
Wesley sighed, shook his head, and said, "So that money is not Paramount's profits. Franklin, why are you doing this? What good will it do you? "
Franklin said expressionlessly, "I just can't stand your fake face."
Their conversation attracted Fu Luoda's attention.
"Uncle, although Franklin's tone wasn't good, he still didn't answer Wesley's question. What do you mean he can't stand it? He's coaxing a child. Looks like he was really threatened by someone, "Fu Luoda said.
Elvis nodded and said, "There's no need to think. It must be the Anderson family. I just don't understand. What exactly do they want? "
After a while, the judge and jury came in, and the trial officially started.
Franklin took out two recordings and showed the proof that he had transferred the money to Wesley's private account. They were blocked by the other party's lawyer on the grounds that Wesley was drunk. As for the money transferred to Wesley, Wesley mistook it as Paramount's normal business profits.
Both sides fought back and forth several times, but neither side was able to suppress the other.
Xiao Yunhai, who was far away in Yanjing, was eating fruits while watching this farce with interest. He said, "It's already been more than an hour. If they continue to argue, there's no meaning at all. Won't they reveal their true intentions?"
Just as he finished speaking, Franklin suddenly raised his hand and said, "Honorable judge and jury, I have a video that can prove Wesley's crime. I request to show it. "
Xiao Yunhai's expression became serious. He really wanted to see what the evidence in the Anderson family's hands was.
In the courtroom, Apollo revealed a mysterious smile.
Fu Luoda had been observing Apollo. Seeing his expression, he said, "Uncle, there must be something wrong with this video."
Elvis said, "I know. But in this situation, you can't ask the court to stop the trial. "
Fu Luoda sighed and didn't say anything else.
It was just a video of tax evasion. Even if Wesley lost, to the Bessie family, it was just a small matter.
But what Fu Luoda didn't expect was that this video had nothing to do with the case at all. It was a video of Wesley finding someone to kill Lawrence.
Once the video was broadcasted, everyone was stunned.
Fu Luoda's expression was first one of shock, then ecstasy.
He knew that Wesley, whom Elvis had high hopes for, was finished. He was only one step away from the position of the head of the Bessie family.
Of course, there was no joy on his face at all. Instead, it was extremely ugly.
However, the ugliest one wasn't him. It was Elvis beside him.
The successor that he had high hopes for was actually the murderer of his own son. Elvis was in a trance.
In the past, he had suspected that Lawrence's death was caused by his own people, but he had placed all his suspicions on Fu Luoda. Who would have thought that it was actually Wesley?
This was completely beyond the limits of Elvis's psychological endurance.
"Wesley, you bastard." Elvis Bessie stood up suddenly. He pointed at Wesley with a trembling finger. After cursing loudly, he fainted.
Fu Luoda and Vanessa hurriedly let the court's medical staff carry Elvis away.
When Apollo saw this scene, the smile on his face became even brighter.
If Elvis were to die because of this, it would be the best news for them.
On the other hand, Wesley, who was standing in the defendant's seat, had been offline the whole time. When he saw that video, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning. Hatred, fear, despair, and disbelief. All kinds of expressions appeared on his face. Even a movie king like Xiao Yunhai would not be able to act out such a complicated expression.
After a while, Wesley seemed to have woken up from a dream. His expression was anxious. He pointed at Franklin and scolded loudly, "You framed me. This video is fake. Franklin, you're trying to frame me. "
Franklin sneered disdainfully. "Wesley, if this video is fake, why are you so nervous?"
"Who's nervous? I'm angry, "Wesley shouted fiercely.
However, everyone could see that Wesley was just putting up a strong front.
Xiao Yunhai shook his head and sighed. "It's over."
As expected, after five minutes, the judge and jury discussed and arrested Wesley.
As for that tax evasion case, it was directly abandoned.
If Wesley's murder case was established, then the so-called tax evasion would have no meaning at all.
