Chapter 383 The dispute begins...
night.
By the fountain.
Hepburn was lying on the bench.
Pretend to be asleep.
The two of them were rehearsing the first scene in the movie where the hero and heroine meet.
Hardy was calling the girl softly beside her. Hepburn woke up in a daze, then followed Hardy in a daze. A car came and took them to a private house. Hepburn was woken up and followed him upstairs in a daze.
When opening the door, Hepburn always staggered, and Hardy had to support her while opening the door. The scene was a bit funny.
Finally, the door was opened and Hardy picked up Hepburn and went into the room. At this moment, Hepburn's body was obviously stiff, but Hardy quickly put her on the bed.
The bedding smells like sunshine and is very clean.
One minute,
Two minutes.
Hepburn secretly opened her eyes a little.
See Hardy pouring wine.
Huh~!
Hepburn breathed a sigh of relief.
"Get up and have a drink?" Hardy said.
"Can I wake up now?" Hepburn asked with her eyes closed.
"Of course, it's time to move on to the next scene."
Hepburn opened her eyes after hearing what Hardy said. Hardy handed Hepburn a glass of wine. The two leaned on both sides of the bed, Hardy lying on his side and Hepburn sitting cross-legged. The two chatted while drinking.
"Mr. Hardy, do you always audition actresses like this?" Hepburn asked after taking a sip of her wine.
"No, this is the second time," said Hardy.
“I was curious the first time.”
"The first time was with Taylor. When she was filming Leon: The Professional, she was a dainty lady. Later, with my training, she became Matilda in the movie."
Actually there is one more.
Dream dew.
He once took her to a yacht for an audition, and the two had a deep conversation, but it was not easy to tell Hepburn about this in detail.
Hepburn suddenly realized.
"I read a review that said it was amazing that Taylor could play such a role, and it was all thanks to Mr. Hardy."
Afterwards, the two chatted about the details of "Roman Holiday". As they talked, Hepburn's eyelids began to droop, and finally she leaned against the head of the bed and fell asleep.
Wait for her to blink.
Oh my god,
It was already the next morning.
Mr. Hardy was sleeping on the bed next to her. Hepburn herself was surprised that she could sleep so soundly. She thought she would be scared yesterday.
Hardy opened her eyes and saw Hepburn looking at her.
"woke up?"
Hepburn felt embarrassed instantly.
"Yes Mr. Hardy."
They both washed up.
Then I went to the rooftop and looked at the city of Rome in the early morning.
"What are we rehearsing next?" Hepburn asked.
"It's time to say goodbye." said Hardy.
"Well, saying goodbye to Jon is the climax of the movie," said Hepburn.
"I'll rehearse with you for one more day today, and then I'll fly back to the United States in the evening because I have some important things to do there. As for you, I've already asked the director and the crew to come over, and you'll meet up with them for the initial run-in." Hardy said.
Hepburn was stunned.
It turns out that the farewell Mr. Hardy said was not just a farewell in the movie, he was leaving too.
"Inside the room.
Princess Anne looked at Jon.
There was reluctance and tenderness in his eyes.
In just two days,
The princess has already developed feelings for this man.
But she had to separate.”
Hardy explained the play to Hepburn, and Hepburn's eyes gradually changed. She looked at Hardy with some reluctance and sadness.
In fact, these two days,
This simple girl was also moved by the man in front of her, and her true emotions were reflected in his eyes.
The two expressed their reluctance to leave.
Hug each other.
"I'm leaving." Hepburn said with a trembling voice.
"...Goodbye, Princess." After a long time, Hardy said softly.
Eyes met.
Their lips collided suddenly.
Hepburn's lips are very soft.
It also has a slight fragrance.
Her kissing skills are very green.
When Hardy stuck out his tongue, she was a little startled, but she was still caught by Hardy and finally surrendered obediently.
After a long time.
The two separated.
Hepburn's breathing was slightly gasping.
The look in Hardy's eyes became even more different.
"Should I kiss the male actors like this when I'm filming?" Hepburn asked.
"No, I'm the only one who can do this."
Then Hardy kissed her again.
"Wuwuwu~~Hmm..."
......
The two were strolling leisurely on the street. This time they did not go to any famous places of interest, but just strolled around the city. At this moment, the two were holding hands, and they looked like lovers.
When Hardy was riding a motorcycle, Hepburn put her arms around Hardy's waist and her face was directly on Hardy's back.
Hardy taught Hepburn how to ride a motorcycle. Amid screams, the motorcycle crashed into a fruit stall, and apples and oranges were scattered all over the ground. Fortunately, no one was injured.
On the street,
The violinist played Johann Pachelbel's Canon in D major, the title of which Hepburn had told Hardy.
After listening to it, Hepburn applauded and gave the other party $2.
That's it.
The two of them played for a whole day and did nothing.
night,
Hardy arrived at the airport by car.
In the carriage,
Hepburn reluctantly said goodbye to Hardy, and this time the two kissed more passionately. When Hardy got out of the car, Hepburn looked at Hardy through the lowered window.
In just two days.
She seemed to have fallen in love. This was the first time she was in love in her life. The feeling of being in love was so wonderful.
After the plane takes off,
The bodyguard then took Hepburn back.
......
Hardy returned to the United States because Henry brought news that a lot of cases had been investigated there, and that the investigation committee had recently moved into Hollywood, preparing to review Hollywood actors and companies.
Among the first people to be censored by these people was Hedy Lamarr.
Hedy Lamarr is not American, she has not yet obtained American citizenship, and she does not really want to change her nationality, just like Charlie Chaplin, who has always been a British citizen.
Her first husband was Nasser.
The investigation committee now suspects that she has colluded with the police. She is on the first list and is the focus of the investigation.
The first thing Hardy did when he returned to Los Angeles was to find Henry.
"How's the investigation going?" Hardy asked.
"There are quite a few things in the data room, including recordings and documents, call records, and video data," Henry said.
"Let's go and take a look."
Hardy did not delay for a moment.
Data room.
Hardy looked at the documents in his hand. There were more than a dozen of them, all of which were lists of people that the McKinsey investigation team was going to investigate.
There are units and individuals.
The U.S. National Defense Agency, the Ministry of Defense, defense factories, Voice of America, the U.S. Government Printing Office, major companies, major film companies, the three major television stations, several newspapers, etc.
The individuals included members of Congress, senior federal government officials, diplomats, university professors, union leaders, writers, newspaper editors, actors, and even journalists, totaling more than 600 people.
Hardy asked Henry to turn on the recording again.
McCarthy's slightly arrogant voice came from inside: "Investigate them. I want to make them feel terrified and afraid. As long as they hear McCarthy's name, these companies and celebrities will tremble."
"What, there is no hard evidence? No, we don't need evidence. We can find any statements from them in their daily materials, books, TV and film works, and writings that show their support for the Labour Party and sympathy for it. It doesn't need to be that they actually said it, as long as it can be inferred from the past. With these things, we can accuse them of being pro-Labour, and they can't argue at all, because we are the politically correct side, and whoever refutes me is pro-Labour."
"We can also investigate Secretary of State Acheson, who was originally Roosevelt's assistant secretary of state. I remember he made some supportive remarks at the time."
"We can also blame Secretary of Defense Marshall for not using tougher tactics against the Soviet Union during the war to gain benefits for the United States and for the Soviets, and for doing the same thing with the Rabbitohs, which was a failure and stupidity."
"Marshall was part of a 'labor' conspiracy, appearing to be for America but secretly betraying the country."
"We can even blame Roosevelt. Roosevelt's New Deal was simply a replica of the Communist Manifesto. All government officials during Roosevelt's time and congressmen who supported Roosevelt's New Deal were suspected of being pro-Labor."
"And President Johnson, I must make him express his position and let him fully support us, otherwise he will let the Labor Party develop freely..."
Listen to these recordings.
Hardy had a feeling that the other party was a complete weirdo.
He intends to use this doctrine.
Become the emperor of the United States.
However, it must be said that McCarthy is not just an individual. There is a force behind him, and the real purpose of this force is party struggle.
Naked political fighting.
As for who it is, it is not clear at the moment. It could be the Republican Party or some other force.
If Hardy stands up publicly and confronts McKinsey, he will inevitably have to face the power behind him. Of course, Hardy will also gain something, which is the power here.
I looked at other information.
Hardy saw some interesting things again. This McKinsey acted like a moralist on the outside, but secretly he was full of thieves and prostitutes, and he also colluded with others to manipulate the stock market.
For example, if he investigates a certain company, the stock of that company is bound to fall. The harder he works, the bigger the fall. His partners know the news in advance and take the opportunity to short sell for a profit, and McKinsey can get a large sum of money from it.
Hardy pondered.
He needs to plan carefully how to benefit from it and not waste his time. Of course, he also needs to avoid risks.
The next day.
Fly to Washington D.C. on a private jet.
He did not go directly to see Johnson, but first found Nicholson. Since Nicholson joined Hardy, he gained Hardy's support and soon became a senator. He is now Hardy's top loyal subordinate.
The two chatted in the room for a whole afternoon before Nixon left.
The second person Hardy met was Marshall. When Marshall saw the names of the names and heard the recordings, his face turned very ugly.
Historically,
It was because of McKinsey's attack on Marshall that Marshall resigned a few months later and has not held any position since then.
"Where does this information come from? Is it true and reliable?" Marshall asked.
"This was obtained by a reporter from the Global Times after an in-depth investigation. It took a lot of effort and is completely reliable," said Hardy.
Journalists have the right to investigate news, and it is reasonable for Hadi to throw out the journalists.
Hardy then met with the current Secretary of State Dean Acheson. After listening to the recording, Acheson cursed McKinsey because the two had disagreements before and he did not approve of what McKinsey was doing.
Hardy eventually met with President Johnson.
In fact, Johnson acquiesced to McKinsey's actions to a certain extent, because some of McKinsey's actions had cleaned up the American Labor Party to a certain extent, but he did not expect that McKinsey had become so rampant.
He even wanted to investigate Acheson and Marshall, the two of whom were his ruling iron triangle. Johnson was originally alone and powerless, but fortunately he had the great military figure Marshall to keep him in check, which saved him a lot of trouble. Acheson was also a political veteran, so he was relieved to leave the State Department to him.
Johnson would never allow MacKenzie to remove his right-hand man.
"This bastard has completely deviated from the right path. He uses an excuse as a means to attack everything. He is a bastard without any political sense."
Johnson couldn't help but curse.
