Chapter 957 The situation escalates

Many movie fans on the Internet are paying attention to this matter, because the news is spreading more and more outrageous, with all kinds of explanations.

This couldn't help but make movie fans worry, what if little Gilbert really died?

Even if he didn't die, would he be injured? What if it affected his filming? These were all questions.

Faced with this situation, Gilbert Jr. originally wanted Cantaloupe Studios to officially announce that he was fine, but Ivanka stopped him.

“I think there’s no rush on this matter.”

"How to say?"

Ivanka said: "Now the outside world knows that something happened to you. If someone was behind this, they would definitely want to verify what happened to you.

We will keep the news silent, neither denying nor admitting, and see how all parties react.”

Little Gilbert thought it made sense: "Well, let's do it!"

So when rumors were spreading outside, Xianggua Studio maintained a strange silence and ignored the rumors.

This actually made the rumor more credible, and more and more people believed that something must have happened to little Gilbert.

More importantly, the ICU ward at the Steve Jobs-Landrini Medical Center in Los Angeles was suddenly blocked, and it was said that a big shot was hospitalized.

That would have been fine, but Naomi Watts, Cameron Diaz and others began to frequently go in and out of the hospital, and Scarlett Johansson, who was promoting "Avengers: Age of Ultron", also rushed back.

She was also photographed secretly wiping away tears, which made people believe that little Gilbert was indeed in critical condition.

Later, when Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman attended an event together, they were asked related questions by reporters, and Tom Cruise only gave a very vague answer.

"I don't know what's wrong. I've called Naomi and the others. I hope little Gilbert is okay."

"It's terrible, and all of our prayers are with him," Disney President Robert Iger said.

When the reporter asked about the situation of Gilbert Jr., Robert Iger said: "This involves Gilbert Jr.'s privacy. I'm sorry I can't disclose it."

Officer Brian, who was in charge of investigating the case, also enjoyed celebrity treatment and was besieged by reporters who wanted to know the progress of the case from him.

But Officer Bryan refused the interview every time, saying he had nothing to say.

Time has dragged on for so long, and little Gilbert has yet to show up, and other people around him have not come out to say a definite word. It seems that the rumor that little Gilbert was seriously injured in the car accident has become a fact.

The influence of Little Gilbert was fully demonstrated at this moment, and even the black donkeys in Washington expressed serious concern about this matter.

The FBI announced that it would take over the investigation and would get to the bottom of it.

When the rumor of Gilbert Jr.'s death in a car accident spread like wildfire on social media, the entire Hollywood and even the global film industry were briefly shocked.

Six of the top ten trending searches on Twitter were related to him. Under the hashtag "Pray for Gilbert Jr.", fans frantically forwarded photos of the scene that were difficult to distinguish between real and fake and blurry dashcam footage.

An anonymous forum even posted a mosaic-covered photo of an ambulance with the caption: According to internal information, the injured person had no vital signs when he was sent to the hospital.

The panic among fans quickly escalated, and the comment section of Gilbert Jr.'s personal account was flooded with tens of thousands of messages.

Some people recalled how films he directed, such as "The Lord of the Rings" series, "The Matrix" and "The Rock", changed their youth.

Some people also questioned why the studio did not refute the rumor immediately, believing that Gilbert Jr. was fine.

On CinemaBlend, the largest film forum in North America, a post titled "Where will Disney go if Gilbert leaves?" sparked heated debate.

After all, Gilbert Jr. is not only a film director, but also the soul of Disney today, and he is also related to those high-tech companies in Silicon Valley.

Unable to figure out the truth, the capital market was ready to move, and Disney's stock price fell 3.2% in a single day. Many Wall Street funds had already started, and once the news of Gilbert's death was confirmed, they would start. Those tempting shares made Wall Street capitalists ready to move.

Both Watermelon and Banana companies have seen their share prices decline to varying degrees, and the share prices of companies such as Amazon, Apple, Tesla, and Nvidia have also been affected.

There is also good news.

The box office of "Avengers: Age of Ultron", which is currently in theaters, has begun to rise against the market trend. If something really happened to Gilbert Jr., then this movie may be his last work.

So the fans chose to say goodbye to the cinema in this way, while also praying that little Gilbert was okay.

This was an unexpected gain. In the third weekend, the North American box office of "Avengers: Age of Ultron" had already dropped to 2 million US dollars.

But it suddenly rose to 8897 million US dollars in the fourth weekend, beating the 5829 million US dollars of the new movie "San Andreas" released this week, and won the weekly box office championship for the third time.

As news of Gilbert Jr.'s possible death in a car accident spread through the Internet, movie fans around the world were shocked.

The death of Paul Walker was exploited by the film company, and Disney also took advantage of this opportunity to attract more movie fans to the cinema.

This also allowed the box office of "Avengers: Age of Ultron" to continue to remain strong. As of the fourth weekend, the film's global box office has reached 2 billion US dollars.

It has to be said that the news of Gilbert Jr.'s death in a car accident played a role in fueling the situation.

Logically speaking, given the situation, Gilbert Jr. should have come out to refute the rumors. But in fact, he stayed at Cantaloupe Manor and remotely controlled the public opinion storm.

It was a coincidence that there was indeed a big shot in the ICU, but he was a member of the oil royal family who was admitted to the hospital due to drug allergy. The hospital blocked the news purely out of privacy agreement.

The celebrities' visits were a smokescreen carefully designed by Ivanka.

Naomi went to see her good friend, and Scarlett cried because her cat was sick. But the public will always piece together the truth they want and try to find the so-called evidence.

After the entertainment had been fermenting for almost half a month, the women gathered together in the Melon Manor to discuss the matter.

Ivanka collected a lot of information: "According to our insider intelligence, this incident was indeed not done by Wall Street, they are just adding insult to injury.

Most likely, it's those extremist groups. Because Gilbert Jr. doesn't support them, some extremists are going to teach you a hard lesson.

In fact, they don't believe you are dead at all, and according to inside information, they say they don't want to use drastic measures.

But we cannot rule out the possibility that subordinates made decisions on their own, leading to an escalation of the situation.”

“It seems like it’s really these people.”

Gilbert Jr. shook his head and said, "There is a charity auction for liberals in New York next month. Ivanka, I want to attend. Please make arrangements."

"clear."

Ivanka said: "Your appearance must have disappointed many people."

“That’s what I want, too.”

Little Gilbert narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Besides, we should not sit idle. It is rude not to reciprocate. Let's find a few people to do something.

Isn't it just looking for a killer? Who wouldn't do that?

Go to the black market and place an anonymous reward. I'll offer 50 million US dollars per head. If you think US dollars are too ostentatious, gold and jewelry of the same value will do."

It's just a matter of finding a killer. A big reward will always bring a brave man. Little Gilbert has plenty of money. (End of this chapter)
