America: Starting with the acquisition of MGM.

Chapter 269 268. Angry roar
Looking at the panicked paparazzi in front of the Los Angeles Police Department, Eric smiled.

He had been planning for this moment for several days.

Without the support of mainstream media, especially TV stations, MGM would always be at a disadvantage in this public opinion war.

He thought for a long time about how to reverse the decline and finally formulated this strategy.

Use yourself as bait to attract these guys, and then use their influence to build momentum for yourself.

Use the spear of the son to attack the shield of the son. I wonder how you can break it?
If you accept the move, then I will open your eyes wide!
If you don't take the initiative, your credibility will be greatly reduced in front of the national audience.

Eric played a game of blocking at both ends and Su Wei's choice.

At this moment, tens of millions of people are watching in front of the TV. They find that this scene is getting more and more interesting. It is really fun to watch the big guys fight.

On Lionheart.com, members who received system notifications also switched to the live broadcast interface. Soon millions of people joined in, and the number continues to increase.

"What does Eric Cooper want to do? What's going on? Where is he? He seems very lively."

"This point of view makes sense! Eric Cooper must be a very strong psychological person."

"I don't believe it, I absolutely don't believe it! If Gal Gadot was my girlfriend, I wouldn't be able to wait a minute."

"What? It feels so exciting. Do you want to fight? A paparazzi melee starts in front of the police station. It sounds good."

"Hahahaha. It's indeed a good idea!"

It has to be said that netizens are very capable of divergent thinking and very accurately deduced the true nature of the incident.

"I agree! Even if it is in a public area, I will definitely execute her on the spot!"

"I also agree with this point of view. No matter how hard I die, I don't believe that any man can endure Gal Gadot for a year, unless he can't Poch."

"That's right. Eric Cooper must be in a few boats or have several lovers. A young and powerful entertainment industry dignitary like him must have many canaries under his command."

"I think you are overcomplicating things. Eric Cooper can endure it not because he is inherently deficient, but because there are other substitutes around him. Don't forget that there are many female stars around him."

"Anyway, I believe in Eric's character from beginning to end. He is so handsome. As long as he hooks his fingers, I will be willing to climb into his bed."

"Wait a minute, the Olsen sisters also had an affair with this guy. They were also underage at the time. Do we need to investigate further?"

"Maybe it's because Eric Cooper is born with a strong psychological quality. He is a genius, the youngest super billionaire in history, the youngest best screenwriter in history, he created YouTube, Facebook, and made MGM Bringing the dead back to life is like magic!"

"Did you watch TV? The police said that Eric Cooper passed the polygraph, which means that he and Gal Gadot dated for a year before eating each other. Do you believe it?"

"Huh? That makes sense! I almost forgot about this. He has had scandals with Nicole Kidman and Robin White. If this guy wants to have sex, there are countless beautiful women who are willing to open their legs and let him have sex."

"'Transformers' is really good. She is very hot. From a man's point of view, I don't believe anyone can withstand it for a year."

"But Eric Cooper passed the polygraph test. How do you explain it? Did he undergo relevant training? Don't be kidding. He is not an agent or a military or political official. I can't think of any reason why he would undergo such training. ”

"Idiot! This is obviously Eric Cooper's plan. He wants to put the TV station on the fire and force them to compromise!"

"It doesn't end, it doesn't end, he even takes Elizabeth Olsen to Jackson's manor to play. With this kind of continuous sitting, there are no clean people in the world!"

"Brother, let alone a man's point of view, even as a woman, I can't stand it for a year. This kind of behavior simply violates human physiological structure."

The views of the members of Lionheart Network also represent the views of the vast majority of people. If Eric heard their discussion, he would probably faint in the toilet. It was useless to endure it so hard in the first place!
But some people have put forward another perspective.

"Can't you see the words next to it? LAPD, this is the Los Angeles Police Department. Below are reporters from major TV stations and newspapers. They are surrounded by reporters from Lionheart."

"Go away, you nymphomaniac!"

“Dude, this guy’s profile picture is that of a man.”

"vomit!"

"It's a meaningless discussion. The police have already identified it, and Barrefali only gave a very vague description. More than this, I want to know what Eric Cooper wants to do. It seems that he is going to make a big move!"

In front of the police station, Eric said: "Do you want to know where the real concentration of sex crimes is? Now, let me tell you!"

Next to him, Carol took out the compiled manuscript and handed it to him. Eric read aloud: "On August 2003, 8, in Montgomery, Alabama, a 21-year-old white man sexually assaulted a 45-year-old black man. The girl, and unfortunately, the girl was killed."

"On September 2003, 9, in Little Rock, Arkansas, another 9-year-old white man sexually assaulted a 31-year-old girl, but compared to the 19-year-old girl, at least she was not killed."

“On September 2003, 9, in Dover, Delaware, a 13-year-old black boy deceived a 16-year-old white girl into his home and sexually assaulted her. Fortunately, she escaped in the end, but this also It’s just a nightmare.”

"On October 2003, 10, in Atlanta, Georgia, a 5-year-old white woman knocked out a 38-year-old boy with drugs and imprisoned him in her home for a day and night, during which she sexually assaulted him multiple times."

“On October 2003, 10, in Georgia, three black men kidnapped and imprisoned a 6-year-old white girl and took turns sexually assaulting her. The poor girl was tortured, but even though she begged for mercy in every possible way, she was eventually tortured to death. The body is full of scars!"

Eric read aloud a series of cases, most of which were sexual crimes, mixed with homicides, abductions, etc., and all of these cases occurred after August last year.

The paparazzi below listened to him talking about these things and looked at each other for a moment, wondering what he meant?
Even the prosecutor Leonard next to him was confused. He had heard of several of these cases, but so what?
The United States has a vast territory and is the fourth largest country in the world. With a population of 3 million, the United States is the third largest country in the world.

It also contains many complex factors such as religion and race. It is normal for several homicides to occur.

It's just that in this era when the Internet is not yet very developed, these cases generally do not become well-known throughout the country. Most of them are only spread to the city, not even outside the county area.

What's all the fuss about?
Everyone's eyes were focused on Eric. He rattled off dozens of words in one breath, and then raised the remaining pile of paper in his hand high.

"What I just said is only part of it. The real situation is more shocking than everyone thinks. And do you know why these cases happen?"

"Because the murderers almost all used the same method in committing the crime. They added the victim's friends on the Internet, then lured them out to meet, and finally committed the crime." "And the tools used by these murderers all came from the same one - myspace!”

boom!
When they heard "myspace", many paparazzi finally realized the crisis. It turned out that Eric Cooper's real target was it!
At the same time, James Murdoch, who was watching the TV with interest in the mansion, suddenly changed his expression.

"Damn! This guy is going to attack myspace!"

Due to the different routes MySpace takes, there is indeed a large amount of irrelevant and unhealthy content, and it is also anonymous information. Anyone can register and disguise themselves.

Therefore, in the process of these cases, we must bear certain responsibilities.

In the past, victims or victims' families jointly sued Myspace, but there was no turmoil. The website's development is also quite good, with the number of registered members exceeding 4000 million.

Although there is still some gap between it and Facebook, it is enough to make people proud.

But if Eric Cooper makes things bigger and arouses public outrage, it will be bad, and the website may need to undergo a major overhaul.

But if he competes through formal channels, he has no confidence that he can beat Facebook. All the functions of MySpace are copied from Facebook and then rebranded. How can you compete with them?
Thinking of this, James Murdoch hurriedly picked up the phone and called his father Rupert Murdoch, but no one answered.

I called my father's secretary again and learned that there was a meeting, so I could only ask the other party to find someone quickly.

After a while, the phone was connected, and Murdoch Sr. said somewhat displeasedly: "James, why are you so anxious? I'm in an important meeting."

James Murdoch hurriedly told the story, but the old Murdoch didn't pay attention after hearing it.

He invested in the Internet a few years ago, but it hit a bubble right after he entered the market, and he lost all his money.

From then on, he had no confidence in the Internet. If James Murdoch hadn't been his beloved eldest son, he wouldn't have let him mess with MySpace.

In the old Murdoch's view, newspapers and television stations are the core of News Corporation, and the Internet thing may bubble again tomorrow.

If it collapses, then it will collapse. It will be a good time for my son to calm down and concentrate on coming back to inherit his mantle.

"Father, the Internet is the future. I finally built myspace. I can't let it disappear like this. Facebook will completely occupy the entire market. By then, no one will be able to compete with Eric Cooper!"

"If you insist, I can help you once. Contact Singer and you two can discuss it."

"Thank you, Dad."

James Murdoch hurriedly contacted Singer, the head of Fox Television, but the answer he received poured cold water on him.

"James, I understand your concerns, but now that Eric Cooper has kidnapped us, viewers across the country and around the world are watching. If the live broadcast is suddenly interrupted, do you know what the consequences will be?"

"The credibility of the Fox network will plummet. We will lose a lot of loyal viewers. This will be a huge blow."

"And even if Fox cuts off the live broadcast, what will other TV stations do? Do you think NBC and CBS will cooperate with us?"

"Singh, I know you are familiar with them. I hope you can help convince those people. And this is what my father meant."

There was silence for a moment, and just when James Murdoch thought there was still room for salvation, Singer replied with a big "NO"!
"James, I'm afraid I can't do anything about your request. I will explain it to Rupert personally. Goodbye."

boom!
Unexpectedly, the other party rejected him. In order to deal with Eric Cooper, he also contributed a lot, but now he was abandoned immediately when he encountered difficulties. James Murdoch threw his cell phone to the ground angrily.

Unexpectedly, the material of the Nokia was very strong, and after it bounced, it hit him in the face, causing him to scream in pain.

"It is precisely because of problems with Myspace's system that a series of sexual assault cases have occurred."

"As a social networking site, there is a lot of pornographic content on MySpace, and many people use exposing themselves as a selling point to attract attention."

"And MySpace has no age limit for registration. Tens of millions of minors wanted to enjoy virtual dating, but when they logged in, they were greeted by pornographic elements that were all around them and could not be stopped."

"There is no doubt that MySpace has become the best and most convenient tool for countless criminals to find their targets. It is a breeding ground for crime and a gathering place and base camp for sexual assault across the United States!"

"I would like to ask all the viewers in front of the TV, especially parents and parents, do you want your children to be exposed to such a dirty online environment?"

"Do you want your healthy and sunny child to turn into a pervert who only thinks about sex?"

"Do you want your child to be lured out by criminals using disgusting methods, and when you see him again, he will be a corpse?"

"Ask yourselves, do you want this to happen?"

"Tell me, do you hope?"

Eric became angrier as he spoke, his voice roared, his expression became ferocious, and the blood vessels and veins on his neck were faintly visible.

Wow!
Suddenly, he flicked his right hand violently, and hundreds of sheets of paper with clearly written criminal cases scattered out like snowflakes.

These pieces of paper may seem as thin as a piece of paper, but each one weighs a ton and represents a large number of victims.

Eric's words were more like a sharp sword, piercing the heart of every viewer in front of the TV.

Even if you are not a parent now, you will become a parent in the future. What’s more, the human heart is made of flesh, so who can tolerate the occurrence of sin.

"NO!"

Among the onlookers, an angry roar came from nowhere, and in the blink of an eye, the outside of the police station was filled with angry voices.

Looking at the excited crowd, Gadot knew that Eric had done it. He could always create miracles and he could always turn the tide.

The tall figure in front of her filled her heart, and she felt like she was falling again.
