[Chapter 632: Counterattack, Kill Kill Kill]
Linton put down the newspapers and magazine and said calmly, "Don't worry, the sky isn't falling. Notify the executives of the two groups, Goodman, as well as the PR and legal departments to meet in my office in half an hour."
During the following time, Linton's phone rang incessantly. Members of the Harem, including Madonna, Winnie, Christiana, Sophie Marceau, Monica, Nicole Kidman, and Xu Qing, called one after another, concerned about the development of the situation.
Not only them, but other women close to him, such as Jennifer Aniston, Mariah Carey, Brooke Shields, Julia Roberts, and others, also called to express their firm belief in him and ask if they could help. Linton thanked them one by one, though of course, no help was needed.
The executives from the two media groups, Robert, Daniel, Scott, Melman, Sharon, Chris, and others, also called. Linton simply notified them all to attend the upcoming meeting.
...
After arriving at the conference room, the executives from the two media groups, the backbones of the PR and legal departments, and the private lawyer Goodman had all arrived.
After Linton took his seat at the head of the table, he took out newspapers and magazines such as the Los Angeles Times, Wall Street Journal, and Variety, and spoke, "You should all know the situation by now. Yesterday afternoon, three homicide cases occurred in Los Angeles. However, these media outlets publicly framed me without any evidence, saying that the killers were related to me. What do you think we should do?"
Everyone was filled with righteous indignation and spoke up one after another, proposing ideas for a response.
But to summarize, there were only three points that would actually be effective.
First, send lawyer's letters to the newspapers that released irresponsible remarks, demanding a public apology and compensation, while reserving the right to take legal action.
Second, Linton will hold a press conference to publicly respond that these murder cases have nothing to do with him.
Third, the two media groups under his command — all television, radio, newspapers, and magazines — will exert full effort to promote Linton. They will inform the public of his recent work schedule, especially his wholehearted pursuit of Oscar awards, noting that he was even holding a PR party at the Hilton Hotel yesterday afternoon, establishing a good image of Linton as diligent and professional.
The meeting was very efficient and ended in half an hour. Finally, Linton made the decision and approved the three response measures above.
However, he changed the first point to directly suing the 14 newspapers and magazines that had released the slander against him in court, demanding high compensation.
Demanding 500 million dollars each from the two highly influential newspapers, the Los Angeles Times and Wall Street Journal.
Demanding 300 million dollars from Variety magazine.
Demanding 100 million dollars from other newspapers and magazines with relatively less influence.
If the compensation were truly paid according to these amounts, every media outlet would feel the sting, and some might even go bankrupt.
Of course, whether the court would support it remained to be seen in the subsequent confrontations, but at the very least, it would serve as a great deterrent to others.
He also had the PR department notify all media that a press conference would be held in 40 minutes, at 10:30, in the large conference room on the 7th floor of Linton Tower.
...
After everyone left, Linton thought of what Jennifer Roberts had said in the car earlier, that the jewish people might spend money to organize and incite disgusting activities like protests.
He released his Spiritual Sense. With his current cultivation, he could easily cover the entire downtown area of Los Angeles.
Sure enough, someone was indeed doing such a thing, and in more than one place.
In the three areas with a high concentration of homeless people — Compton, Inglewood, and Gardena in the city center — someone was hiring homeless people.
In a city park in Compton, there was a tent without any markings. In front of the tent, several staff members were registering homeless people and handing out money and food.
As long as they were willing to participate in today's upcoming protest activities, they could receive a reward of 100 dollars in cash and a small bag of food.
This reward was very attractive to the homeless. A long line formed in front of the tent, and more people continued to join the queue.
The homeless people who finished registering and received their rewards were taken behind the tent by staff members. Someone was grouping them, distributing promotional materials, and explaining the protest slogans and routes to them.
Banners, posters, hand-held signs, and other promotional materials were also placed on the ground. On these materials, slogans like [Severely punish the murderous demon Linton,] [Linton get out of Hollywood,] and [Recognize the true face of the devil Linton] were all written in bright fonts.
Seeing this, Linton finally understood how so many protests in America usually came about, and that homeless people could actually be used in this way.
Of course, seeing these people using such low-level and shameless methods to smear him so unscrupulously, he was naturally furious and could not tolerate it.
He didn't even bother to track down the instigators behind it. Generally speaking, the true behind-the-scenes controllers of such things would not show their faces easily. There were at least several layers of shells between them and the specific staff members, making it difficult to trace.
But it didn't matter. Linton knew with his toes that the people behind this must be those jewish people.
Since these jewish people loved to stir up trouble and constantly oppose him so much.
Then one day, when he reached Astral Dominion stage, they shouldn't blame him for wiping them out completely, including Israel.
For now, although he couldn't do whatever he wanted yet, he could still manage to directly kill anyone who dared to stick their head out.
Since these people chose to help the jewish people and slander him indiscriminately, they shouldn't blame him for being ruthless.
He immediately opened the window and spat out his Flying Sword. The grain-sized Flying Sword streaked like a bolt of lightning toward Compton City Park.
Immediately, all the staff members organizing the protest in the city park had their heads cut off without any warning, and the blood spurting from their bodies drenched the surrounding homeless people.
The scene instantly fell into chaos. The terrified homeless people screamed and fled, but many desperate ones looted the cash and food in the tent before leaving, and even stripped the dead bodies of everything.
It wasn't until 20 minutes later that police cars arrived with sirens wailing. The scene was a mess and deserted, with only a dozen or so corpses cut in half left behind, leaving the responding police officers wanting to cry but having no tears.
Almost at the same time, the same thing happened in Inglewood and Gardena. A dozen staff members organizing protests had their heads bloodily cut off, and the scenes were looted by homeless people.
...
At 10:30, the large conference room on the 7th floor, which could accommodate more than 300 people, was packed with media reporters carrying cameras and equipment. Even the hallway outside was filled with reporters.
Accompanied by PR Manager Lawrence and lawyer Goodman, Linton walked toward the podium.
After Lawrence briefly introduced the purpose and process of this meeting, Linton picked up the microphone.
"As you all know, I have been very busy with work lately. Some time ago, I was on a promotional roadshow for Titanic across the United States, and after that, I've been busy with power PR for the Oscar awards. I've been on the move almost every day.
Yes, let me tell everyone some good news. We have submitted Titanic for multiple Oscar awards, and I myself am also preparing to compete for the Oscar for Best Actor for the role of Dawson.
Yesterday, three serious homicide cases occurred in Los Angeles, which I am also very saddened by.
But what makes me even more furious is that early this morning, multiple media outlets — even highly influential newspapers and magazines like the Los Angeles Times, Wall Street Journal, and Variety — published unfounded remarks, actually framing me as being related to the killers in these cases.
These extremely irresponsible remarks have caused me great distress and significant reputational damage.
I will never swallow my pride regarding this, let alone tolerate them.
To this end, I have decided to use legal weapons to protect my rights.
I don't even bother to send them any lawyer's letters; instead, I'm having my lawyer directly file a lawsuit against them in the Los Angeles court, demanding they make a public apology and also seeking high compensation."
After saying that, he took 14 copies of the indictments from Goodman and showed them to the media.
Hearing such explosive news, the reporters below went wild, raising their hands one after another to ask questions.
The first to get the chance to ask a question was a reporter from the UPN Television Network, and the question had also been pre-arranged by the PR department.
"Mr. Anderson, you just said that yesterday's three homicides had nothing to do with you, but some say that when these three homicides occurred, they were holding meetings, and the organizers of the three meetings, Frank, Martin, and Jason, all had conflicts with you the day before yesterday afternoon. Is this true?"
"That is correct. A few days ago, I received an invitation from the Hollywood Kabbalah Council to attend their gathering. The day before yesterday afternoon, I accepted the invitation and went to their headquarters, where I had a meeting with their 13 Elders. In fact, there was no conflict during the meeting; they simply invited me to join the Kabbalah Council, and I just didn't agree."
"May I ask what kind of organization the Kabbalah Council is, and who are the 13 Elders? Why did you refuse?"
"As for what kind of organization the Kabbalah Council is, you can find out for yourselves. I won't go into detail about who the 13 Elders are, but I can tell you all that these people are all big shots in Hollywood, including Frank, Martin, and Jason. As for why I refused, it's because I couldn't accept their membership requirements."
"Could you tell us exactly what requirements you couldn't accept?"
"They wanted me to change my faith, to believe in judaism, and to marry a Jewish girl and become a Jewish person. Naturally, I couldn't agree to such excessive demands."
"Why are you unwilling to become a Jewish person? Aren't there many privileges to joining them?"
Linton said disdainfully, "This is America, we are all Americans. America values freedom and equality. What jewish people privileges? What privileges do they have? Is it the privilege to frame others at will?"
The public relations manager terminated the UPN Television Network reporter's questioning. In fact, his questions had far exceeded the limit, but Linton wanted to reveal information about the Kabbalah Council and the jewish people to everyone through this Q&A session.
The reporter from MCA Television Network, having received permission, continued to ask: "Mr. Anderson, you just mentioned that you are going to sue media outlets like the Los Angeles Times, Wall Street Journal, and Variety, and demand high compensation through legal means. Won't this infringe upon the media's right to free and objective reporting?"
"That's right. The law grants the media great rights, but it also requires that media reporting must be based on facts, and be truthful and objective; this is the prerequisite. If everyone does not respect the facts and distorts reports at will, that is deliberately misleading the vast readership, which is a serious illegal act.
Now, media outlets like the Los Angeles Times and Wall Street Journal are maliciously slandering me without any factual basis, so I naturally have to take up the weapon of the law to defend my own rights and interests."
"Then isn't the compensation amount you are demanding too high?"
"High? I don't think it's high. Do you think my reputation can be compensated by a mere 500 million dollars?
Besides, if we don't hold these unscrupulous media outlets that fabricate stories and wantonly infringe on the rights of others accountable and pursue legal claims, and if we don't hurt them and make them learn their lesson, there will be more victims in the future."
Just as Linton was answering the reporters' questions, suddenly, the reporters' mobile phones all rang one after another. Many of them received information about homicides that had occurred in three places: Compton, Inglewood, and Gardena.
The reporter from The Hollywood Reporter, who had just obtained the right to ask a question, suppressed the question they had prepared earlier and changed it to, "Mr. Anderson, we have just received information that not long ago, serious homicides occurred in three places: Compton, Inglewood, and Gardena. The situation at the crime scenes is very similar to the situations at the Film Academy, CAA, and the Hollywood Screen Actors Guild; the victims were all silently decapitated in public. Does this have anything to do with you?"
Linton laughed, picked up the microphone, and said, "Since I started working this morning, I have been in this building, discussing how to deal with the slander against me by media outlets like the Los Angeles Times and Wall Street Journal. Do you think these three cases could have anything to do with me?"
"But I heard that those killed at the scene were organizing a protest against you, and there were many promotional materials protesting against you at the scene. Since they were killed at this time, do you have nothing to say?"
"What a joke. Someone deliberately tries to smear me, and if they get killed, it has something to do with me? I could just as well say that someone deliberately set a trap to frame me.
Besides, when a homicide occurs, shouldn't one call the police and let them investigate to find out the truth?
And since the cases happened in public places, it should be easy to find witnesses, and it should be easy to figure out the ins and outs of the cases, right?
I suggest you go to the police station to find out about the cases; that is the correct path."
...
Linton's press conference was a success. Soon, the content of the press conference began to appear on the internet and television, and the newspapers that evening were full of reports.
And the situation regarding the Kabbalah Council and the true identities of the 13 Elders were dug out by enterprising reporters and exposed to the public eye.
The American public realized that the influence of the jewish people was already so great; apart from Linton's Universal Group and Linton Media Group, Hollywood was basically controlled by the jewish people.
Many media outlets even reported that it was not just Hollywood; the financial capital of Wall Street was completely controlled by the jewish people.
Even America's central bank, the Federal Reserve, was completely controlled by the jewish people.
And the Kabbalah Council's demand that Linton change his faith, believe in judaism, marry a Jewish person, and join the jewish people, along with the various privileges of the jewish people, caused the reputation and image of the jewish people among the American public to plummet.
More details about the homicides that occurred in the morning in Compton, Inglewood, and Gardena were also dug out by the media. It turned out that the jewish people were using money to bribe ignorant homeless people to hold protests and demonstrations, deliberately creating momentum to smear and attack Linton.
More and more media outlets, including on the internet, began to criticize the jewish people: "During World War II, it was America that took in the jewish people. Now, are the jewish people being ungrateful and trying to enslave and control America?"
Some extremists even shouted on the internet, "Jewish people get out of America."
...
In the afternoon, under the witness of reporters from MCA Television Network and UPN Television Network, Goodman went to the Los Angeles County Superior Court to sue 14 media outlets, including the Los Angeles Times and Wall Street Journal.
Under the witness of the television stations, the court accepted the case with the fastest speed and sent subpoenas to the sued media outlets, telling them to prepare for the lawsuit.
After receiving the subpoenas from the court, media outlets like the Los Angeles Times, Wall Street Journal, and Variety were scared to death when they saw the high compensation amounts.
Previously, because they were in a rush to speak up for the jewish people group and were used to the title of "uncrowned kings," their smear articles against Linton indeed had no evidence and used harsh language.
According to existing laws, they would likely lose the lawsuit, and the losses would be too great by then.
Of course, big media outlets like the Los Angeles Times, Wall Street Journal, and Variety were fine; they had strong resources and could hire big lawyers to wrangle with the plaintiff in court.
For such a lawsuit, if one were truly sparing no cost, it is completely possible to drag it out in court for 2 or 3 years, but the costs incurred in the process are not something that an average company could afford.
However, other small media outlets were miserable. Once the lawsuit was lost, there was only one path: bankruptcy and closure. If they hired big lawyers to fight the lawsuit, they also couldn't afford the long time, and for a while, they regretted it so much their intestines turned green.
...
Of course, Linton's means of retaliation went far beyond this. Also, before getting off work that afternoon, Linton's Flying Sword struck again.
Steve Smith, the president of the Los Angeles Times, as well as the editor-in-chief and the reporter who wrote the report slandering Linton, were decapitated in their offices in front of everyone.
Edward Green, the president of Variety, as well as the editor-in-chief and the reporter who wrote the report slandering Linton, were decapitated in their offices in front of everyone.
There were also other media outlets headquartered in Los Angeles, where the editors-in-chief and reporters who wrote articles slandering Linton were also all decapitated in their offices in front of everyone.
