Chapter 559 Lost Contact
“What? Domestic violence? Beating someone to death?”
Facing the police officer who came to the door, Harvey denied: "No, absolutely not! I didn't..."
Upstairs, Georgina ran downstairs with tears streaming down her face: "You are finally here, finally here! Help me, I'm about to be beaten to death!"
The slap marks on her face were clearly visible, and the bruises on her arms that turned purple were shocking.
Harvey turned to look at Georgina, with disbelief on his face.
Whether she continues to be married to Harvey or makes other plans in the future, Georgina believes that it is necessary to call the police, which will protect her interests.
The police officer saw the injuries on Georgina's face.
Georgina hid behind the police officer before Harvey could react, and her words were full of tears: "I ask for an injury test. Take me away from here quickly. If I don't leave, I will be beaten to death. I will really be beaten." Kill him! Officer, he's committing a crime!"
Things involving rich and famous people are particularly troublesome. The police officer checked Georgina's injuries and said: “Sorry, Mr. Weinstein, according to normal procedures, you and Ms. Chapman need to go back with us.”
There is still a boss when I go back.
Harvey stared at Georgina with burning eyes, as if he was a beast that chose to devour anyone.
The police officer stopped between the two and reminded: "Mr. Weinstein, please don't make things difficult for us!"
“I'll make a phone call first.” Harvey called the lawyer.
Georgina notified her lawyer when she came downstairs.
Two LAPD officers took the two men out of the house and back to the police station.
Lombardo didn't know what to do for a while.
When Georgina arrived at the Beverly branch, the lawyer was already waiting for her.
It was a terrible thing for a woman to do, but Georgina still did it deliberately. She immediately accused Harvey of intentional injury, and showed the photos and videos taken as evidence, asking the police to take more severe measures against Harvey to prevent him from colluding with the confession.
The lawyer will follow up immediately according to the client's request.
The head of the Beverly Police Department received a call and briefly asked about the specific situation. It involved violent injuries. According to normal procedures, the police asked the police to temporarily detain Harvey for 24 hours.
Harvey's mobile phone and other items were also temporarily seized.
Robert Rodriguez rushed to Quentin's house next door and asked, “What should we do?”
Quentin doesn't want to wade into troubled waters, but he was picked out by Harvey. The situation is still unclear. He said: "I'll call Harvey first."
He called the mobile phone number, but no one answered.
When I called the landline at home again, the servant said she was not at home.
Quentin called several times in half an hour, but couldn't get through. He said, "Robert, we don't need to do anything for the time being. We'll see what happens."
Rodriguez also didn't want to wade into muddy waters and said, “Then let's wait.”
Quentin said: "Let's go drink."
At home in Brentwood, Matt Damon was on the phone frantically.
Without Harvey, he would not have been able to make a good **** friend on his own.
Damon called the editor-in-chief of an acquaintance of the media and said: "The content about Harvey on your website is seriously inaccurate. Someone made it up. You should fully demonstrate it before posting it, instead of posting it casually like this." Come out, you are hurting an outstanding film artist and entrepreneur, this is irresponsible behavior.”
The other side clearly expressed their rejection.
Damon raised his voice: "If you do this, you will lose more. All the inside information with me, with Weinstein Pictures, and even more on the crew, you will never get it again."
Similar pressure methods were used by Ben in the past, and Matt Damon did not do them many times. But now Ben is not convincing, so he has to do it himself.
In just one hour, Damon made more than a dozen calls. Under his pressure, some media temporarily agreed to delete news about Harvey.
But more media are reprinting it like crazy.
Brushing the heat and eye -catching effect, Martin's two teams led by Emily and Jessica have not been broken in recent years, and they have done it well.
By mid-afternoon in Los Angeles, relevant news had already reached the top of Google's hot searches!
San Francisco, City Hall.
Jennifer Siebel Newsom parked her car and walked towards the door of City Hall.
Like most days, there are always a lot of protesting people gathered near the city hall.
No matter what the policy is, there are always people who are dissatisfied. Many people express their dissatisfaction in a simple and direct way, holding posters and banners and coming to the city hall to protest.
This round of Teamsters protests may have gone on for too long, with protesters listless and gathering together to chat.
The veteran drivers generally had loud voices, and their vulgar voices kept falling into Jennifer's ears.
Jennifer was indifferent and walked straight to the city hall.
Suddenly, a name came to her ears—Harvey Weinstein!
"Hollywood is having fun again." A fat truck driver holding a Blackberry told the people next to him to watch: "TMZ broke the news about Harvey Weinstein's video of forcing an actress. It's a real video. Weinstein It's really too much riding on a horse. He's tall and fat, so he's pressing down on someone, and he's not afraid of breaking his bones…”
Ordinary people were watching the fun, and another person came over and exclaimed: "It's really Harvey Weinstein! I've seen him in newspapers and on TV, and he's so strong!"
Fat Truck Driver said: "Isn't Harvey Weinstein the boss of a film company? What kind of female star does he want to play? Why is he doing this?"
Another person said: "Maybe he likes this tone. Celebrities always have some special hobbies."
These words fell into Jennifer's ears. She paused slightly and left here quickly without saying anything.
When Jennifer entered the city hall, the fat driver said to his companion: "I'm going to the toilet."
He turned to the roadside nearby and said to an ordinary-looking man: "I did what you said."
The man saw it just now, so he took out the envelope and handed it to him: "This is the balance payment." The fat driver opened it and took a look, and prepared to return the BlackBerry.
The man waved his hand casually: "I gave it to you."
Jennifer entered the city hall and raised her head to the sky to avoid tears from flowing out and smearing her eye shadow.
What she just said reminded her of 2005, when she was just an unknown little actor who only played small roles in a few dramas, but she met Harvey Weinstein.
Jennifer went to a nearby lounge, turned on the computer in the lounge, and logged on to the TMZ website.
The news and videos of Harvey Weinstein were extremely eye-catching. When Jennifer saw the actress in them, she couldn't help but think of herself.
But she is no longer a young actress, she is already the mother of several children.
Previously, she could only endure it for the sake of her husband's election campaign.
Now, it's time to settle this account!
Jennifer picked up the phone and dialed her husband's number: “Can you come over here?”
Gavin came here quickly: "Dear, what's wrong with you?"
Jennifer pointed to the computer screen: "Do you remember? I told you that I had encountered misfortune. You asked me who I was, but I never told you because I was worried that it would affect your career."
Gavin saw it clearly: "Harvey Weinstein?"
"It's him! Someone exposed him, and someone rushed out first!" Jennifer closed her eyes and said in a deep voice: "In 2005, he invited me to the Four Seasons Hotel on the pretext of discussing my acting career to strengthen me!"
She faced the pain head-on: "He could ruin my career. After the incident, I didn't call the police or tell anyone else."
"It's not your fault, he should pay for it!" Gavin first comforted his wife, then picked up the phone and dialed a number: "It's me, Gavin, there is an article about Harvey Wayne on the homepage of TMZ Stan's news video, contact the media that supports us and ask them to help forward it. Don't mention any political connections to me. I won't listen to this now. Push hard and create public opinion!”
Seeing her husband hang up the phone, Jennifer said: "Thank you, thank you for doing this for me. It is said that he has supporters in Washington..."
Gavin said extremely seriously: "You must get a fair and just result!"
He smelled something in it that Jennifer couldn't even detect. Maybe this was a good opportunity to skyrocket his reputation.
Burbank, Davis Studio foyer.
A girl handed a box to Martin herself and said: "Georgina Chapman asked me to give this to you. She said that if you can't contact her at eight o'clock in the evening, she asked you to find a way to save her."
Martin took it and said, "I understand."
The girl left immediately.
Martin took his things back upstairs, and Thomas and Bruce were the only ones left in the office.
He took out the storage disk from the box, connected it to the computer, and played the video on it.
It was a video of Harvey's domestic violence against Georgina, and a recording of Georgina calling the police.
Thomas asked: "Have entered the police station?"
"He is temporarily detained by the LAPD because of suspected violent injuries." Martin said slowly: "I briefly communicated with McClain that the LAPD will detain Harvey for no more than 24 hours, so that he, a core member of the Football Gang, will be temporarily out of contact. , and this is a domestic violence matter between husband and wife, and other people should not intervene rashly. "
Bruce added: "Tonight, some TV news will definitely follow up. Warner TV and Fox News have confirmed that they will report it. Once public opinion becomes popular, most newspapers in the United States will definitely report it tomorrow."
Thomas reminded: "You have forgotten that there is another core figure in the Weinstein Films, Harvey's brother, Bob Weinstein."
Martin said: "Brothers may not be of the same mind..."
Washington, after finishing the chat with Erica and Kelly Gray, Hilary took the car directly home.
She was very satisfied with the outcome of the interview.
In the car, the assistant sitting in the passenger seat reminded: "Madam, something happened today. Many online media are reporting crazy about Harvey Weinstein and the actress."
"Isn't this normal in Hollywood?" Hilarie didn't care. The political world was more fun than Hollywood.
The assistant handed over the mobile phone: "He forced the actress to do it."
Hilalie took the phone and clicked play, her face became extremely ugly.
What Harvey did was completely contrary to what she insisted on!
Actually, it's not a big deal. Politicians always say one thing and do another. The problem is that Harvey was exposed!
Hillary thought for a while and couldn't give up so quickly, and said, "Call him."
The assistant called the mobile phone, landline and office phone continuously, just like when she first got the news, no one answered.
“Can't get through...” The assistant told me about the previous two calls.
Hilalie said: "The one who beat Bob."
The assistant called Bob Weinstein to ask about the specific situation. He quickly hung up the phone and said to Hilary: "Bob said the situation is under control and their brothers can handle it."
Hilalie didn't want to get involved in this kind of show, so she immediately put it behind her.
New York, Weinstein Pictures.
Bob sat in his brother Harvey's office and turned off his cell phone. On the TV opposite, the Warner TV news channel was reporting on Harvey.
This younger brother of the Weinstein family, the shadow of Harvey, opened a phone book. On it was the list of the Weinstein Films board of directors. He was able to unite several allies to convene a board meeting.
Bob still closed the phone book. It was a bit early now, so we could wait.
He took out two mobile phones and turned them off. After leaving the company, he did not go home. Instead, he went to his apartment on the Upper East Side alone. After entering, he first unplugged the landline phone line.
Like Harvey, Bob is also temporarily out of touch.
