America is in control

Chapter 278 Premiere Invitation and Signing Plan
After driving the scared assistant and stunned Jonathan out of the office, General Liu paced back and forth.

The expression on his face was uncertain, and after hesitating again and again, he picked up the mobile phone on the table, found the number he had not contacted for a long time, and called it.

"Hi, Ellie, how are you doing lately?"

The call was quickly connected, and after a moment of silence, thousands of thoughts turned into a common greeting.

"John? Is that you? I haven't heard your voice for a long time. I almost can't tell it apart!"

There was a hint of bitterness in her gentle words, and Alicia subconsciously brushed a strand of her temples behind her ears, her fingers trembling slightly.

"You contacted me just because of the news on TV! Hahaha... No need to!"

"I don't know how many times I have experienced this kind of slander without any basis, and I have long been used to it!"

"As long as a girl is chasing her dreams in Hollywood, she will inevitably suffer similar criticism. No one can escape it."

Alicia talked to herself, showing an iron-clad look and not caring.

"Ellie, no matter what, this incident happened because of me and involves you. I'm sorry."

The vicissitudes of life revealed in the other party's words and the maturity that did not match his age made Liu Jiang feel a little heartbroken.

"John, there is absolutely no need for you to say sorry! After all, I dumped you at that time!"

"If we really want to talk about it, I have to thank you! Thank you for taking the blame for me, otherwise forget it, it's boring to talk about it!"

"Actually, it's not a bad thing for me to have something to do with you. You have a much better reputation than me now!"

"The film "Batman and Robin" that I'm starring in will be released in the middle of this year, so let's just use it as a hype in advance!"

Alicia shivered, but she stopped talking. She changed the subject and comforted General Liu.

"Uh! In that case, okay! If you encounter any trouble that is difficult to solve, you can tell me, maybe I can help!"

Hearing what the other party said, General Liu felt a little relieved, and his irritability also dissipated a lot.

"John, can I invite you to the premiere of Batman & Robin?"

"I don't mean anything else, it's just that I haven't seen you for a long time."

"In addition, the movie needs promotion. Since your popularity is so high, you can take advantage of the opportunity to build momentum or something."

By some strange combination of circumstances, Alicia sent an invitation to General Liu, for which she also explained a lot, and in the end she was even a bit arrogant.

General Liu was stunned. What did the other party mean? Do you want to rekindle your old relationship with yourself?

It's okay to meet in private, but if something happens when attending the premiere, his real girlfriend Connery will probably explode!
For a while, he didn't know what to say, so he could only fall into silence again.

"Actually, it doesn't matter if you don't come. It's just a chance to get away from each other."

Hearing that the other party didn't respond for a long time, a trace of disappointment flashed in Alicia's eyes, and she looked back pretending to be relaxed.

"Ellie, there are still a few months until the premiere, so I can't give you a definite answer right now."

"If I don't have anything else to do by then, I will come to this premiere."

Feeling the disappointment in the other party's words, Liu Jiang was inexplicably agitated.

The man was a teenager until his death, and he and the other person had known each other since childhood, and the other person was implicated for no reason because of him.
After looking for countless reasons, Liu Jiang hesitated and gave Alicia an ambiguous answer.

"Then we've made a deal! John, if you dare not come by then, I will expose the details of our relationship to the media, very specific ones!"

"Ellie, this is not necessary!"

"Bah! Scumbag! I'm going to tell you! Including my mental journey after being abandoned by you."

"Uh! As long as you're happy!"

After making a joke, both of them were in a much better mood.

After hanging up the phone, Liu Jiang couldn't help but sigh, the little girl back then has finally grown up!
How could he not hear the hints in the other party's words?

Another confusing account! That’s it! That’s it! Let’s adapt accordingly when the time comes!
Liu will put down his phone and forget about the "Batman & Robin" premiere for a moment.

He held his chin with one hand and fell into deep thought.

If nothing else, the people who caused this incident were the two uncles and nephews, Bob and Brandon.

Damn it! It’s okay for this pair of fox uncle and nephew to say that I am discriminating!
After all, I know the truth very well in my heart, and it is not too unfair.

But now, as luck would have it, the other party actually resorted to making personal attacks out of thin air, and also carried out precise attacks on his own company.

This is all for an all-out war!
Can't wait any longer! It's time to show your fangs!
Thinking of this, Liu Jiang pulled out William Payton's number and called him.

"Mr. Payton, have you produced any results from your audit? Is there a contracting plan that is most suitable for me? Have you come up with it?"

"Bob has completely lost his mind! He just wants to completely destroy me now!"

"I don't want to wait any longer! It's time for a showdown with Top Promotions!"

As soon as the call was connected, General Liu couldn't wait to speak.

"My team and I have found several tricks in the overseas on-demand data, and the relevant evidence has been faxed to your lawyer."

"The signing plan is almost complete. Let's talk about liquidated damages first, based on the supplementary terms you signed with the top promotion company."

"After all, if you tear up the contract with the top promotion company, you will need to pay about 1000 million U.S. dollars in liquidated damages."

William Payton finally told some good news, but when Liu Jiang heard the figure of liquidated damages, his heart felt like he was bleeding.

This is the hard-earned money he earned from fighting desperately in the boxing ring!
Just throw it into the water? To be honest, General Liu was a little reluctant to let go!
"So much! Isn't the other party manipulating the PPV share? Can you find a way to refuse to pay the money?"

In another attempt to save the day, Liu would ask William Paton for advice.

"John, these are completely different things! The other party's hands and feet are not clean. You can file a lawsuit against the top promotion company and seek huge compensation!"

"But if you want to tear up the contract with the top promotion company, you can't afford this liquidated damages!"

"Unless you wait another three months, when the contract expires, the liquidated damages will naturally not have to be paid."

William Paton broke General Liu's fantasy and told a cruel reality.

"Hey! That's okay! I'll talk to my lawyer about tearing up the contract, and first talk about the signing plan you made."

General Liu thought for a while and decided to discuss it with Harvey before making any plans.

"John, don't you have a New Caesar Boxing Promotion Company under your name? The best signing plan we have formulated is to cooperate and co-organize events."

"New Caesar Boxing Promotion Company and the next company jointly signed you for three years, with a signing fee of 2000 million U.S. dollars. You will fight at least 3 games a year, and the appearance fee for each game is guaranteed to be 1000 million U.S. dollars."

"Both parties jointly hold a boxing match, and the cost is shared, 55% off. Of course, all the profits from the boxing match are also divided half and half." "To put it simply, the partner pays for the relationship, and you pay for the people, and the cooperation is win-win. , first come first served!”

William Payton introduced the signing plan to General Liu in detail.

Half and half? It is equivalent to using half the cost of organizing the event to gain half of all the profits from the boxing match.

I have to bear half of the appearance fee and signing fee. This condition sounds very ordinary!

"Mr. Payton, what are the specific advantages of this signing plan?"

Liu Jiang felt a little suspicious and immediately asked.

"John, based on the revenue you have generated from previous games, the combined profits from ticket revenue and broadcast rights are no less than the PPV revenue."

"According to my calculations, this signing plan will double your income per game, or even exceed it by a lot!"

"The signing conditions are also relatively loose. At the same time, you can also manage your own network in the boxing circle. After three years, you can completely jump out and go it alone."

William Payton smiled and explained clearly the interests hidden behind the signing conditions.

"Okay! No problem! But we have to find a way to exclude the top promotion companies. I don't want to have anything to do with those fox uncles and nephews anymore!"

General Liu suddenly understood and initially accepted the signing plan. At the same time, he also put forward his own conditions.

"John, I must remind you! If the top promotion company chooses to match this condition, then you will no longer have to pay the liquidated damages!"

William Paton dutifully made a suggestion.

"Isn't it just liquidated damages? I can afford it! But I really can't stand the shameless and despicable behavior of the fox uncle and nephew!"

"By the way, find a way to exclude Tang Jin Promotion Company. I don't want to cooperate with him. He has put a lot of effort behind this smear scandal!"

"As for other boxing promotion companies, no matter which one matches this condition, I can accept it!"

After thinking for a while, Liu Jiang made a decision. In the days to come, he just wanted to box in peace and contentment and no longer wanted to get involved in these messy things.

"Okay! I will find a way to eliminate these two boxing promotion companies!"

"Tomorrow I will fax the revised signing plan to your lawyer, and you can choose the appropriate time to announce it to the industry!"

"However, I suggest that the scope of communication should be kept within the boxing circle as much as possible, if the public knows that the conflict between you and the top promotion company has become so intense."

"It would be difficult if your boxing fans do something extreme in anger!"

The employer had said so, and William Paton could not persuade him any more. He could only choose to find out the omissions and fill them up.

"Don't worry! I know what to do!"

Liu would be noncommittal about William Paton's suggestion.

The fox uncle and nephew were engaging in personal attacks, and he had no intention of holding back anymore.

All in all, General Liu now has three trump cards in his hand, but if he wants to achieve the best effect, the order of playing the cards must be carefully considered.

As the saying goes, one person can calculate the shortcomings, and two people can calculate the advantages!

The group of people under him cannot be idle, it is time for them to make suggestions for him again.

After finishing the call with William Paton, General Liu was not in the mood to continue working.

With a dark face, he left the new Caesars Entertainment Company and returned to the Irvine Villa.

"John, is it true what is said in the news? You dated Alicia Silverstone before? Why have I never heard you mention it before?"

"Did you still have contact with her when we were together? She was really hurt by love."

"Little Lion, please satisfy my curiosity! I really want to know your previous experiences. Is Alicia Silverstone really your first love?"

As soon as they entered the door, Connery came over with a gossipy look on her face. She held Liu Jiang's arm tightly and kept pestering him.

"Fake News! This is fake news concocted by my opponent! It is pure rumors and slander! The purpose is to disgust me and discredit me!"

"I did have a relationship with Alicia Silverstone for a while, but then she had a disagreement with me to pursue her musical dreams."

"Later on, she and I broke up peacefully. It was definitely not that I abandoned her after becoming famous! That news was just made up!"

Liu Jiang had a headache, and Connery's endless pestering made him very upset.

On the one hand, it is continuous mental torture, and on the other hand, it is the ultimate physical enjoyment.

I have to say that the advantage of a big cream cake can really soothe a man's irritable heart.

Being entangled with no choice but to get angry, General Liu could only answer the other party's questions selectively.

"So that's it! Did you still contact her later? Was she your first love?"

Connery broke the casserole and asked to the end, and kept asking questions.

She shook her body and tilted her head to look at the expression on General Liu's face.

A woman's heart is like a needle in the sea! Connery was suspicious and wanted to judge whether what the other party said was true or false through observation.

"After we broke up, I never contacted her again! It doesn't matter whether she was my first love or not. The person I love most now is you, Honey!"

Sensing that something was wrong with Connery's state, General Liu immediately raised his vigilance. He immediately launched a round of sweet talk to try to divert the other party's attention.

"Really? Are you sure?"

"Of course, my dear!"

"There was a news item on TV just now. A reporter interviewed Alicia Silverstone. She said she just spoke to you on the phone and helped you clarify some rumors!"

"Well! After all, this happened because of me, so I called her and said sorry to her. Baby, you won't be jealous because of this!"

"How is that possible! I'm not a jealous person! I just wanted to test whether you would lie to me, hum! I guessed it!"

"It's just a phone call to apologize. It's not a contact! What's more, there's a reason for the incident. I think you're just looking for trouble, so you need to deal with it!"

"Little lion, let's discuss the matter, don't do this with me! I won't give in!"

"Come here you go!"

General Liu picked up Connery and rushed directly to the bedroom upstairs.

After a hearty battle, the opponent was as docile as a Persian cat.

It seems that if you want peace at home, you have to rely on a pair of iron waists!
