"Anton, I have been thinking for a long time,” Eddie hesitated and said: “Before that, do you know why am I fired from the previous company?"
"I heard that you offend a ‘big man." Anton shrugged, stepped over, and pulled the chair behind the desk, inviting him to take a seat. "Let me hear your story."
Anton returned to his old position and raised his legs, looking at the nervous Eddy with a smile: "Relax, I am just an associate editor, and I have no right to fire you. You know, You are the editor-in-chief. Please show your bravery."
"Carlton Drake, the owner of the Life Foundation. He uses homeless people to conduct illegal human experiments. I investigated this issue in an interview and finally angered him."
"You lost your job because of this. You want an avenge by continuing this investigation?"
"I do not know." Eddie's tone wavers. "I finally found another job... But, my life messes up because of him."
"I will discuss this matter with the old man." Anton considered for a moment and said: "You go back to work first, and I will give you an answer as soon as possible."
Carlton Drake of the Life Foundation is a rich man. In terms of value, this young Dr. Drake, who has achieved remarkable medical results, may not be inferior to the wealth that J. Jonah Jameson has accumulated over the years. If Eddie wanted to track down this matter, Daily Bugle and Life Foundation would be at war. From a personal point of view, Anton is very supportive of Eddie. But, the Daily Bugle does not belong to Anton. Doing things without considering the consequences is immaturity. Anton can give Eddie a certain amount of support, but as for the Daily Bugle, J. Jonah Jameson is the decision-maker. Anton must respect J. Jonah Jameson's opinions.
"Ok." Eddie thought it was Anton’s excuse. He couldn’t hide his disappointment leave.
"Wait, Eddie, I support you, but you know, although the newspaper is Jameson's family business, it's not mine.” Upon seeing this, Anton added: "Don't worry, I will try to convince the old man."
"I understand, thank you." Eddie felt the sincerity of this sentence, and his emotions were very excited.
Seeing him walking away, Anton touched his chin, took out his cell phone, called J. Jonah Jameson, and reported the whole story. But, Anton did not expect J. Jonah Jameson to chuckle and approve of Eddie's investigation.
"Why?" He curiously said: "Old man, you should know that the investigation of the Life Foundation is risky. I heard that the Life Foundation has many activities secretly. If Eddie insists, we may face The threat or even assassination."
"Anton, New York is our territory, and the Life Foundation belongs to San Francisco. Believe me! The Life Foundation cannot reach New York, nor dare to reach in."
"Old man, It turns out you are a retired newspaper editor, not the stingy newspaper boss” Anton smiled.
In addition to the role of a businessman, J. Jonah Jameson was the editor-in-chief of the Daily Bugle for decades. Newspapers also carry the social responsibility of exposing the dark side of society and promoting positive energy. How do you think J. Jonah Jameson could repeat this trivial work? Over the years, if J. Jonah Jameson put this energy into other industries, his will be richer nowadays.
"You also impressed me, Anton. Whether you have resolved this matter or not, you already have the determination to be the newspaper boss."
"If you compliment, wait until the matter is." Anton hangs up.
When Anton was about to call Eddie, there was another knock on the door. The screenwriter has arrived. Anton immediately put Eddie's affairs down and discussed the script with the screenwriter. But, everything related to movies is more important than the Life Foundation.
A white man named Toby Browning. He respects Anton because he pays him. Browning discovered that Anton is not a Neet-rich second generation. Batman's many settings make him shine, and the storyline aesthetics.
"This kind of easy and pay well job, please give me more!" Browning screams in his heart.
"According to what I just said, use the fastest speed to perfect the script." Anton said, "In addition, I just thought of another job that suits you."
"Please speak." Browning nodded.
"Write this story and promote it to the public in the form of a novel. We’ll use it to rises public attention." Anton said, "As for the reward, you will get what you deserve.”
"Deal." Browning did not hesitate but nodded decisively. Batman’s story setting is quite complete. This job is not too difficult, and the reward is higher than the market price. He is happy to work for Anton.
"I will fly to Los Angeles to meet Jim tomorrow. You can join me If you want to return to Los Angeles." Anton nodded.
"Okay, then I will leave."
Browning knows how to wink at people, sees Anton's intention to see off the guests, and voluntarily retires. Anton looked out the window, and the golden sunset glowed with clouds. He got up and went to the staff area and saw Betty. She was about to leave.
"Hey, Betty, is Eddie off work?"
“Do not know." Betty didn't show him a good face, twisted her hips and didn't look back, and disappeared into Anton's eyes.
"Women are too stingy!" Anton touched his nose, a little embarrassed.
"Anton, are you looking for me?" Eddie just walked out of the office.
"Yes, are you free to have a drink? It's at the bar not far downstairs." Anton invited: "I have a few words to tell you."
