Corrion Estate.

The old godfather is listening to the economist, who is also his adopted son Tom, reporting on the gang's business situation.

After listening to the report, the old godfather suddenly remembered something and asked, "How are Mike's TVs selling now?"

Tom was slightly stunned.

"I've inquired and they sell more than a dozen units a day."

The old godfather smacked his lips and said, "The production line produces 120 units a day, but only a dozen can be sold a day. If this continues, a lot of products will be piled up, which will tie up a lot of funds. He won't be able to sustain it for too long."

Tom said, "Mike has been in charge of sales these days. I believe in his ability and he will make progress."

The old godfather nodded and said nothing.

Just then the phone on the desk rang.

Tom looked at the old godfather and picked up the phone. "This is the Corrion household. Who is this?"

"Hello, my name is Jon Hardy, and I'm looking for Mr. Vito Corrion," Hardy said.

Tom covered the microphone and looked at the old godfather: "Godfather, it's Jon Hardy in Los Angeles, the one who worked with Michael."

The old godfather nodded, "I heard it."

After saying that, he stretched out his hand and Tom quickly handed the phone over.

"I'm Vito."

Hardy's tone became respectful. "Good afternoon, Mr. Corrion. I'm sorry to call you."

"Haha, don't say I'm being rude. I remember you came to my birthday party and gave me a gift. I really liked that silver plate." The old godfather said with a smile.

"I called you today because I have something I need your help with and I hope you can help me solve it." Hardy stated his purpose.

"You say."

"Mr. Mayer of MGM and I invested in a movie called Leon, which is currently being filmed in New York. But an accident happened two days ago, and the Film Administration stopped the filming."

"Mayer is looking for someone to mediate, and the other party wants $100,000. There may be other New York families involved, so it's difficult to resolve."

"So I come to you for help, hoping you can help me."

"Okay, I'll let someone look into this matter." The Godfather responded after hearing what Hardy said.

The old godfather's expression was calm the whole time. He had experienced too many things, and what Hardy said seemed to him to be completely insignificant.

"I'm going to New York in the next two days and will visit you then," said Hardy.

"Okay, come home for dinner then." The old godfather said kindly.

Hang up the phone.

The old godfather looked at his adopted son Tom and said, "Tom, you should investigate this matter and find out who is in charge of the Film Administration and which family is doing this."

"Okay, godfather." Tom took the order and went out immediately.

The old godfather was the only one left in the study.

The kitten jumped into his arms, and the godfather held it in his arms and stroked it gently.

I remember the day when Siegel brought that little guy.

At that time, he just thought that Hardy was a subordinate that Siegel was very optimistic about, so he brought him to the party to see the world.

Unexpectedly, the little Hardy guy later became friends with Mike, and the two of them even set up a TV factory.

One million investment,

It's definitely not a small amount of money.

This made the old godfather pay attention to Hardy.

Someone was sent to conduct a detailed investigation into Hardy's past.

Battle hero.

Discharged due to injury.

His experience is very similar to Mike's, no wonder the two quickly became friends because they have common experiences.

Later, he joined Siegel's Jewish gang. Although he had no reputation in the gang, he became Siegel's confidant in a short time.

What Hardy did later was even more extraordinary.

He actually formed his own gang, and he did not serve as the manager. Instead, he pushed forward his brother named Bill, and he hid behind the scenes.

No matter who investigates him now, he is a businessman with a clean record.

Later, he established HD Security, and through a bank robbery, he turned a little-known company into a nationally known company.

I now own four or five companies.

It can be seen that

Hardy is a very smart guy.

He admired him from the bottom of his heart.

If we compare them, his eldest son and second son are far inferior to Hardy. Only Mike can be compared with Hardy.

Fortunately, they became good friends.

The old godfather was very pleased with this.

To survive in society, you need friends. It will be good for Mike's future if he has such friends.

He would like to see his son have a friend like Hardy who is smart and capable.

Two hours later.

The phone at the Godfather's villa rang. It was Tom calling. He told the Godfather the results of the investigation.

"Godfather, this incident was caused by the Tattaglia family. Bruno, the son of Philip, the head of the Tattaglia family, owns a film company. The MGM crew came to New York and rented stuntmen and demolition technicians from the film company. There was a blasting scene yesterday, and the demolition technician put too much explosives, causing two stuntmen to be injured. Bruno took the opportunity to ask for $100,000."

"I also asked the film management department, and someone did give them a heads-up before the incident. This was definitely premeditated."

"How are the two injured people? Are they serious?" the old godfather asked.

"One had his leg blown off, and the other had multiple injuries and needed dozens of stitches, but they both recovered," said Tom.

"I see."

The old godfather hung up the phone after saying this.

He thought for a moment and called the head of the Tataglia clan. The two chatted for a while, and finally the old godfather said, "I heard that your son Bruno opened a film company, and an accident happened these two days, injuring two people."

"I'm not sure about this."

Philip, the chieftain of the Tatakia clan, was somewhat surprised when he heard this. He really didn't know about this.

"That crew was invested by a very good friend of mine. No one wants to see an accident happen. Let the crew compensate the two injured people $2,000 each for medical expenses. Let them recover well. I will say hello to the film management department and ask them to resume filming." said the old godfather.

Philip was also an old fox, so he naturally understood what the godfather meant.

"Well, I will talk to Bruno about this. I don't think it's a big deal." Philip said.

His words basically agreed to the old godfather's conditions.

After hanging up the phone with Philip, the old godfather called the deputy mayor in charge of the film management department. The two talked and laughed for a long time. The old godfather mentioned the crew's affairs. The deputy mayor immediately said that he would inquire about the film management department.

The producers sent by Hitchcock and MGM were smoking in the hotel. Now that the filming was stopped, they were very anxious.

"This accident was definitely intentional by the demolition engineer. He created the accident to extort money. He wanted one hundred thousand dollars for injuring two people. This is simply robbery." The producer said indignantly.

"Yes, they are robbing, and they are robbing like this, but we can't call the police." Hitchcock sighed.

The other party's attitude was very tough and they hinted at gangster identities, which made Hitchcock and MGM producers very worried.

American gangs are very rampant now, and the Mafia is the most prominent among all gangs. No one dares to mess with them. Now they only hope that the big boss Mayer can use his powerful network of contacts to resolve this matter as soon as possible.

It was already six o'clock in the afternoon.

They both had no appetite.

At this moment, the phone in the room suddenly rang. The producer was close to the phone and picked it up. "This is the Killer crew. Who are you looking for?"

"I'm from the Film Management Office. I'm here to inform you that you can start filming as normal starting tomorrow."

The producer was stunned.

"Ah~really?"

He was a little bit unbelievable. Is the problem solved?

"Of course it's true. We will send a penalty letter tomorrow morning. In view of this accident, your crew will be fined 200 US dollars. I hope there will be no more accidents." The other party said again.

The producer confirmed it this time.

I am so excited.

"Thank you, thank you, we accept the punishment."

"See you tomorrow then."

"See you tomorrow."

The producer put down the phone and looked at director Hitchcock excitedly, "Director, the matter has been resolved. The Administration said that the fine was $200, and the filming will start as normal tomorrow."

Hitchcock was also delighted.

It's not just a few hundred dollars that the crew needs to stop working for a day.

"Great, I'll ask the crew to prepare and start filming on time tomorrow." At this point he remembered something and asked, "Where are the stuntmen?"

The producer was stunned.

He doesn't know either.

Just then the phone rang again.

This time, it was the person in charge of the company that they had hired as the blaster and stuntman. The producer was still a little worried, so he exchanged a few words with the other party. The person in charge said, "Our actors were injured. For the medical expenses and the subsequent lost wages, we hope that the crew will compensate each person $2,000. What do you think?"

2000.

The digital producer was shocked to hear this.

It used to cost 100,000.

It only costs 2,000 now, so there is no need to hesitate. I agreed immediately and handed the money over.

Put down the phone.

The producer was still a little bit unbelievable.

The matter was resolved in this way, and the result was infinitely better than he had expected.

It must be the connection made by the big boss Mayer. The boss is so awesome that he picked up the phone and called Mayer's home.

The call was connected.

The producer said happily: "Boss, you are really amazing. The matter was resolved so quickly."

Meyer was stunned.

He didn't understand what his subordinate said.

The producer continued, "First, we got a call from the Film Administration, informing us that we can start filming tomorrow, but we will be fined $200 because of an accident during filming."

"Later, the film company also called and demanded $2,000 in compensation for each of the two stuntmen injured in the explosion."

"Boss, your connections are really strong. I didn't expect that the problem could be solved so quickly, and the New York Mafia families were able to let go."

The producer flatters.

Meyer was a little confused.

Find someone yourself?

He was sure that this matter was definitely not solved by the person he found.

He suddenly thought of Hardy.

He had informed Hadi of this matter before, and Hadi said he would give it a try by calling.

Could it be that Hardy asked someone to solve the problem?

Such an easy solution,

What a strong network Hardy has in New York!!!
