Chapter 395 Tragedy
Little Gilbert instructed Xingzi to ensure the security of the manor.

This incident also reminded him that there might be similar reporters who would risk their lives to break into the Cantaloupe Manor.

This has happened before. Tom Cruise's estate was invaded by unscrupulous reporters several times before, which made Tom Cruise very angry and he exploded in front of the media.

Anna's handling of the matter was quick. The next morning, TMZ, a subsidiary of Warner, acquired the gossip website at lightning speed.

The new operations director took over and used his power to fire more than a dozen reporters from the website, including, of course, the presumptuous reporter.

"You're fired!" the new director's words were ruthless.

The reporter's name was Red. He was stunned: "Why? I didn't do anything wrong!"

"Hmph, I don't need to explain to you. You can leave now. If you have any questions, go find your lawyer!" The director was cold and ruthless, and waved his hand to let Red go.

Red suddenly felt like he had fallen into an icy cave, as if he had lost his soul, and walked out of the director's office in a daze.

The other colleagues looked at him indifferently. Overnight, their gossip news website that had just received financing changed everything, and Red was the culprit.

Red returned to his workstation to pack up his things. His job paid well, and he had gotten this job by being shameless and working hard.

Red guessed that it had something to do with what happened at yesterday's premiere, and he wasn't that stupid.

Journalists have to be shameless, but they also have to know who they can offend and who they cannot.

Red obviously didn't know that he had offended someone he shouldn't have offended and ended up like this.

Resist? Don't be ridiculous. This is North America. They are using fair and aboveboard methods. What reason does he have to sue Little Gilbert?
As for exposing it to the media? That's impossible. Other media outlets are not fools. Even The Washington Post will not hype this up.

Red took his things and left. He went to a nearby bar to have a drink or two, then went home drunk and thought about his next move.

After this incident, I’m afraid no media would be willing to hire him. So he might as well follow his father’s example and become a blue-collar worker to earn hard-earned money!
He hated this kind of life since he was a child, but in the end he had to go back to live this kind of life.

But what Red didn't expect was that even such a life was a luxury. When he was returning to his rental house, he was robbed by several black people when he passed by the alley.

Red resisted too violently, so the blacks gave him a lesson and took off one of his arms.

In fact, as long as he went to the hospital in time, he could still be connected. But the medical expenses in North American hospitals were frighteningly high, and Red resisted the urge to go...

As Red walked towards home with his arms drooping, he didn't notice that a middle-aged man playing with coins not far away was watching everything.

After the blacks finished their work, the middle-aged man made a phone call: "Boss, it's all done, no one was killed."

The middle-aged man frowned as if something was said on the other end of the phone: "In my opinion, just kill him directly, and I think no one will notice."

The person on the other end of the phone seemed to disagree, so the middle-aged man had no choice but to give up. He looked in Red's direction and sighed, "You're lucky..."

Then the middle-aged man disappeared at the end of the alley and no one knew about it.

Red called the police, but they were perfunctory and didn't investigate. Red called many times to urge them, but the police in North America are there for money.

Naturally, there would be no investigation into Red’s case without money.

As time goes by, this matter will be left unresolved, and Red will become a disabled person. His bleak future life can be imagined.

In fact, as long as you don't mess with Little Gilbert and abide by industry rules, Little Gilbert is a good guy.

But if he doesn't respond to such things, others will think he is weak and can be bullied, and then they will shit and piss on his head. This is unacceptable.

However, the idea of ​​letting the blacks put a man on top of Red was not really from little Gilbert's instruction.

The person the middle-aged man called was Irwin Charves, assistant to Robert Iger, chairman and president of Disney. He was responsible for some shady business. Large media companies or large companies have people in similar positions to solve some problems that are difficult to solve in the open.

After waiting for the middle-aged man's call, Irvin Chalves reported to Robert Iger: "Chairman, it's done. Do you want to tell Director Gilbert Jr.?"

“No need,” Robert Egger waved his hand, “Don’t bother him, Little Gilbert is also very busy at work.”

"Okay, Chairman..."

After Elvin Charles left, Robert Egger looked at the scenery outside the window and thought about something.

This is also a warning to others, as Gilbert Jr. is Disney's most valuable asset. Robert Iger is determined to bring Disney to the position of the world's number one media group, and Gilbert Jr. is crucial.

So he had to protect little Gilbert and no accidents could happen.

Besides, even if he didn't do it, Doug Walter at Warner Bros. would do the same thing.

This kind of thing is known to everyone and has happened before. There are rumors that Universal Pictures even fed a person directly to the fish for Spielberg.

The glamorous Hollywood is not only dirty but also a bloody world inside, but this side is not known to the outside world.

This incident was like a ripple, which quickly dissipated on the water without causing any waves.

Gilbert Jr. spent two days with Naomi Watts in Los Angeles before returning to Mexico to continue filming.

As expected, "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" grossed $8835.7 million in its first week, successfully topping the weekly box office.

As expected, this is the last box office hit at the end of this year, and it is also the end of Hollywood this year.

Although there are other movies to be released later, they are no longer important and will not affect "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets".

The film also received quite good reviews, maintaining a good reputation for a sequel.

"The film is full of imaginative inventions and new concepts. Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry expands and deepens the unknown world before the audience." - Roger Ebert of Chicago Sun-Times.

“The spectacular magical world and charming Potter in the film make the audience feel as if they have entered the real Hogwarts.” - Review by The Dallas Observer.

"The film's director perfectly presents Rowling's exquisite and wonderful ideas on the big screen." - Review from Chicago Reader.

"The film's deep and terrifyingly dark plot is slightly better than the first film, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone." - The Philadelphia Inquirer review.

"As a sequel to Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, the film was made so quickly and is more lively than the first one. Some new characters appear, adding some funny fun to the film." Los Angeles Weekly commented.

Of course, there are negative reviews, such as the classic "Washington Post" rating: "The film is dragging and boring, with no interpersonal story communication throughout the film."

Given that the film was produced by Gilbert Jr., it is not surprising that The Washington Post gave such an evaluation.

"The Fault in Our Stars" ended its three-week run this week, with a cumulative North American box office of $7923.5 million and a global box office of $1.21 million, which is a pretty good result.

With the global box office exceeding 100 million, the media no longer hyped up Gilbert Jr.'s Waterloo, and it wasn't really a Waterloo.

The most watched news this week, apart from the premiere of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, is the news about the child between Gilbert Jr. and Naomi Watts.

The media was buzzing about it, and fans of the film also knew about it.

Some fans had mixed emotions, but most of them sent their blessings and looked forward to the birth of Gilbert's baby.

Little Gilbert had no intention of responding to the concern from the outside world. After returning to the Mexican crew, he devoted himself to his work.
