Chapter 889 The Attack of Augustine (5 updates·Please vote for me)
Author: Qinggu
Augustine himself is not stupid, on the contrary, he has a lot of cleverness, but he is used to bullying others.
The cold treatment in the past two years has made him more patient and accustomed to tolerance.
Aldrich's call came as no surprise to Augustine.
He has great ambitions, and this is part of his return to Victoria Pictures.
Just a year ago, he sent Aldrich several messages about [former Minderee Pictures president Bruce Hanks!]
Aldrich used Lambert's words to express to him the mission of continuing surveillance and investigation.
He was very excited: finally got a reply!
"How have you been lately?"
Aldrich was always a father. He had more than two sons and one daughter, but only these two sons and one daughter were his direct descendants.
Even though he was the only one who educated his eldest daughter, Augustine and Lambert were both his wife and children taught by his father, but they were both grown up by him and raised by his side, and their feelings were also there.
It's quite profound.
Their mother also has an aristocratic background. She regards them as her heirs and hopes that they will be outstanding. Isn't it normal?
You can't turn your attention to the other children who were raised privately and don't admit it. Even their own origins were stolen by relying on the inferior tricks of "mother", right?
His greeting was a little stiff, but in Augustine's ears, it was almost a sound of salvation.
"...It's okay!" Augustine clenched his hands, trembling with excitement, gritted his teeth, and tried to be as calm as possible.
"Very good. From your voice, I can tell that your mentality has made great progress!"
Aldrich's voice was filled with a smile.
As for Augustine's performance, was he calm, restrained, or forbearing?
Aldrich doesn't care, what he cares about is whether his son Augustine has learned lessons from this dismissal!
Aldrich would not allow his son to be a loser, a fool who would not tolerate being used as a weapon by others.
This kind of idiot is not as conservative as Lambert. At least he will not make mistakes and can become his puppet.
"Yes!" Augustine choked slightly.
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, the father and son finally got to the point:
"I heard from Lambert that you are now friends with Hanks' son, Bruce Hanks, the former president of Mindli Pictures?"
"...Yes, father, I have completely gained his trust now!"
When Augustine heard Aldrich's words, he suddenly became energetic: His investment direction is right!
He continued:
"I didn't deliberately ask anything about Mindley Pictures or Victoria Pictures. He occasionally asked me and told me the truth, which was full of performance. But through getting along and communicating, I always believed that he was not really abandoned!
This is my judgment.
It’s just that he doesn’t think so – he feels that he has been completely abandoned.”
"Although he is very decadent, I vaguely understand that he always has a certain say in the board of directors of Mindli Pictures. It's just that because of the cooperation with the bankrupt sisters, the shareholders of Mindli Pictures are more biased towards Amanda!
He knew that because "Black Moon Project·4" and "Twilight··1" had accidents due to my operation, I was proposed to Victoria Pictures. I expressed the dissatisfaction of Victoria Pictures, which made him feel that we were
Similar people."
"After being expelled for two years, he did not become alert and reflective like me, but became more and more decadent - I guess this is because old Chet Hanks was still unwilling to delegate power to Amanda, and could not trust Bruce again.
Hanks’ reason.”
"As for Bruce personally, after two years of investigation, I found that he is not only addicted to gambling, but also has an extremely strong obsession with women, and has recently had the idea of taking DP!"
Aldrich: "Are you sure... you weren't the one who guided me?"
"On! It's not me -" Augustine strongly denied it and said firmly:
"We are in the same club. Apart from the two of us, there are some other rubbish, all of which are not good. But I never took action because I was worried that Bruce would be suspicious of me in the end!
And these places are full of corruption and temptation. Even without my guidance, if an individual does not have self-control... he will easily fall!"
“These rubbish clubs are branded as high-end entertainment clubs, but in fact, many of these aristocratic children are the abandoned sons of various companies who have been sacrificed in order to expand their business!
Their purpose is to catch us, the aristocratic children who have also been abandoned by our families, or... have insufficient self-control, and drag us into the water so that they can complete their mission of making money!"
Aldrich gave a rare smile: "You did a great job!"
Aldrich got the news from Lambert that in order to win the trust of Bruce Hanks, Augustine had lost nearly 90 million US dollars on him in more than a year. This was almost August's loss.
One-third of Ting's assets.
"As long as I can help my father, this is what I should do!" Augustine said with excitement.
He used to pay too much attention to money and was unwilling to invest or study in it. Now he finally understands his father's dissatisfaction!
He felt that he had been too stupid in the past, only paying attention to the small gains in front of him and not having a sense of the overall situation.
"Don't you know what your father has planned?" Augustine suppressed his ecstasy. Aldrich called him, which meant that he had a chance to return to Victoria Films, but he couldn't be too impatient.
Aldrich himself disliked his extreme ambition and thought he was not steady enough and had no brains.
He wanted to tell Aldrich through actions:
He, Augustine Middleton, is no longer the same person he was two years ago. He deserves to be trained by him and become the successor of Victoria Films!
"Yes!" Aldrich Middleton said, "Tonight, someone will contact you. Remember to cooperate with her! Don't be anxious or impatient for the next task, just do it step by step!"
"My purpose is to make him fall into the quagmire step by step and completely lose his qualifications as the future chairman of Mindli Pictures..."
"?" Augustine didn't understand. "Why?"
If it were in the past, Aldrich would naturally not explain to Augustine that Augustine's current attitude at least satisfied him, and he was still not particularly reassured about the next plan, so he said clearly:
"Let him fall into the quagmire, completely unable to stand up, and then give him the possibility of turning over - let him completely become a person who has the same heart as our Victoria Pictures, and become our Victoria Pictures, and a dog that controls Mindli Pictures in the future!"
"Now, do you understand?"
"That day... is the day you complete the review and return to Victoria Films!"
"Yes!" Augustine was trembling with excitement, and there was a fire burning in his heart, as if he had already seen that day!
