American Fame and Fortune Chapter 562

Chapter 562 The situation is over

After interviews with two major opinion leaders on Mi Rabbit were exposed and the Helen Show was broadcast, anyone with a keen sense of smell could clearly see the direction of public opinion. The incident between Pete and Big Ben was like a preview for this time, letting people know what will happen next. How to do.

Contrary to everyone's expectations, Pepper Gwyneth Paltrow was the first to jump out.

After punching Pitt and kicking her two ex-boyfriends, she jumped out to criticize Harvey Weinstein, telling how he harassed her several times and forced her to go to the hotel to provide massages, and how she was resourceful in fear. Escape story.

From traditional newspapers to television, from the Internet to emerging social media, news about Harvey Weinstein is overwhelming.

 Entertainment is completely opposite to Harvey.

 “Hollywood's number one villain!”

 “Sexually assaulted Harvey Weinstein!”

 “Harvey, the cancer of the industry.”

 Similar news emerges endlessly.

At Los Angeles International Airport, Rose McGowan left the terminal, hailed a taxi and went straight to the police station.

The heroine of "Planet Terror" has been waiting for this day for too long.

Harvey just let her go and ridiculed her for not being pretty enough, not skilled enough, and smelling like body odor.

 Intolerable!

The road in front of the Beverly Police Department was extremely crowded on both sides. Hundreds of media reporters gathered here. The television broadcast trucks of Warner TV, NBC and CNN were parked nearby.

Rose McGowan stopped the taxi early. After getting out of the car, she opened her throat and shouted: "I am a victim of Harvey Weinstein! METOO! I was sexually assaulted by Harvey Weinstein." !”

 The camera in the reporter's hands reacted faster than their heads, and they turned around immediately.

Rose McGowan shouted Mi Rabbit's slogan and walked towards the police station door.

Although she is not even a second-tier actress, she is not an unfamiliar face to entertainment reporters. Many people know who she is and has collaborated with Miramax and Weinstein Pictures many times.

Surrounded by reporters, Rose McGowan walked into the police station and reported to the LAPD that she had been raped by Harvey.

 Harvey's lawyers, deputies and others are going through the bail procedures, and they want to get Harvey out first to take charge of the overall situation.

The procedures were about to be completed when someone from the police station suddenly informed them: "Sorry, there are new developments in the case, and Mr. Weinstein cannot be released on bail for the time being."

 “Why?” Lombardo demanded.

The lawyer took a tough stance: "This is an infringement of my client's legal rights..."

“Please allow me to finish.” The police officer interrupted him: “Another victim has just come to the police station to report a crime and has provided tangible evidence. Mr. Weinstein needs to stay temporarily to cooperate with our investigation.”

   Any more? The lawyer knew that the situation was not good and said some harsh words, but there was nothing he could do.

Lombardo once again contacted the politicians they had funded in California, but his personal phone number couldn't be reached. He called his office phone number and was told that they were traveling.

 Previously, he felt that the Weinstein brothers were surrounded by good people.

 Now all the good people are gone.

 Beverly Hills, The Ritz-Carlton Hotel.

Lea Seydoux checked her personal belongings for the last time and made sure that the storage disk containing the video and audio recordings was in her bag.

Martin was answering the phone at the window when he hung up and said: "Today, two victims came into the police station to call the police, Rose McGowan and Aisha Argento."

 Léa Seydoux asked: “Italian model and actress Aisha Argento?”

 Martin nodded: "Yes, they accused Harvey of being strong."

Léa Seydoux picked up her bag and said, "It's my turn now."

Martin said: "The hotel car is waiting for you at the door. Don't worry, he won't be able to turn over this time."

 “Thank you!” Léa Seydoux came over and kissed Martin, and said sincerely: “You gave me a chance to wash away my shame.”

Martin encouraged: “It's your courage that made you embark on this path.”

"I'm going." Léa Seydoux left the room without hesitation, went downstairs and out of the hotel, got in the car, and went straight to the Beverly Police Station.

 Martin returns to Davis Studios in Burbank.

Not long after, Louise entered Martin's office and brought good news: "Kelly just informed me that Senator Erica was interviewed and expressed her views specifically on the Harvey incident. It's almost time. Yes, watch CNN.”

 Bruce got the remote control, turned on the TV, and turned to the CNN channel.

At the right time, CNN news started broadcasting, and Martin quickly saw Erica on the TV screen. This senator from Georgia, who started out as a women's rights advocate, focused on Harvey Weinstein at a rally.

"I am very sad to watch the news that is updating in real time these days. Harvey Weinstein's behavior is inexcusable! The way he treats vulnerable and talented young women is unacceptable under any circumstances. ! There should be zero tolerance for such despicable behavior that degrades women anywhere in the world."

Erica seemed so excited that she almost took out her pink water bottle and took a sip on the spot: "I call on the federal and California judicial systems to thoroughly investigate this matter!"

Hilarie also spoke out and publicly denounced Harvey Weinstein's behavior.

 At the same time, a press conference was held in front of San Francisco City Hall, and Mayor Gavin attended with his wife Jennifer Siebel.

In front of dozens of reporters, Jennifer told the story of being raped by Harvey in 2005, and announced that she would report it to the Los Angeles police. In addition to providing the little evidence she had in hand, she would fully cooperate with the Los Angeles police investigation.

She spoke out about Mi Tu and also called on other victims to come forward and speak out about Mi Tu: "I know it is a terrible thing to bravely stand up against sexual abuse and oppression, but we must unite and let everyone remember Hold our voices, this is the power of women, and it is our power!”

Gavin hugged his wife vigorously and said to the media cameras: "I support my wife unreservedly and face difficulties and pain with her, because I believe justice will come and I will do my best to help her. , help all victims and seek justice that belongs to them!”

 In the past, he gave the impression of a **** and an adulterous cheater. This time, he fully supported his wife and showed an image of being brave, upright, family-oriented and responsible.

The scene burst into extremely warm applause.

 Gavin did not just talk, he also mobilized his own political and media resources.

 This is no longer a simple case, it is developing into a social movement sweeping the United States.

Gavin, Erica and Hilarie, political creatures with a keen sense of smell, clearly understand the political benefits they can derive from this.

 They all joined in.

Once the wall has fallen, there is no need to push it anymore. All that is left is to throw the broken wall into the cliff and smash it into dust.

The lawyer found that it was too difficult to apply for bail for Harvey. Victims kept walking into the police station to call the police, and the LAPD required Harvey to assist in the investigation according to procedures.

Because the videos and audios Bob sent to Los Angeles matched some of the victims who reported the crime, the police applied for an arrest warrant as quickly as possible.

The entire Hollywood, the entire Los Angeles, and even the entertainment industry across the United States are in chaos.

  Journalists were excited. While digging deeper into the Harvey case, they also discovered a news development direction that could attract the public's attention.

 Go and interview Harvey's former close friends and let them express their opinions on this matter.

This kind of thing is simply too interesting and will definitely attract the melon-eating crowd.

As a result, in front of the homes of Quentin, Robert Rodriguez, Matt Damon, George Clooney, Nicole Kidman, Judi Dench and Meryl Streep, etc. And the workplace is haunted by paparazzi entertainment.

Meryl, who had a close relationship with Nicholson, was the first to become a traitor. This performing artist who publicly shouted "Harvey, my God" not only publicly stated that she had broken off with Harvey, angrily denounced Harvey's shameless behavior, but also called for He must be severely punished!

Judi Dench, who had Harvey's name tattooed on her butt, washed off the tattoo as if nothing had happened. She said she had no knowledge of Harvey's evil deeds and would never cooperate with him again in the future. She fully supported Mi Rabbit, etc. .

 Members of the Gang like Quentin, Rodriguez and Matt Damon broke away from the Gang with little resistance.

However, these people claimed not to know what Harvey had done.

In contrast, Charlize Theron's words in an interview were much more sincere: "I'm not surprised at all by what Harvey did, because he harassed me, and this trend has been in Hollywood for a long time. "

She specifically mentioned: "I also reminded some subsequent actresses to be careful when working with him. If he invites you to the Four Seasons Hotel, it is best not to go."

In just a few days, Hollywood stars have taken sides one after another, and without exception they have stood against Harvey Weinstein.

 Because the number of victims who have reported to the Los Angeles police has exceeded 50!

 There are many well-known actors like Aisha Argento and Rose McGowan.

 Erica and Hilarie's statements and promotion, as well as Gavin and Jennifer's press conference, even politically announced Harvey's death sentence.

However, these are nothing, the most jaw-dropping thing happened.

 Weinstein Pictures held a press conference after a board meeting, and a spokesperson announced the board's resolution.

In light of Harvey Weinstein's actions, the board of directors unanimously decided to remove Harvey from the board of directors and remove him from all positions at Weinstein Pictures.

ˆ Bob Weinstein has become the new chairman and CEO of The Weinstein Films!

When this news was conveyed through the lawyer's mouth to Harvey, who was still in custody because victims kept appearing, the movie mogul who had been in Hollywood for twenty years seemed to have aged thirty years.

 “How could he do this! How could he do this!”

 Bob's betrayal, which was 10,000 times harder than Georgina's betrayal, hit Harvey 10,000 times harder. Others were confused: "Why did Bob do this? Why?"

 No one could answer him, and even the lawyer thought that Harvey was doomed.
