Rick Rosen stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window at home, quietly looking at the sky outside the window. As time passed, the bright lights under the sky began to disappear bit by bit. The sky slowly changed from dark black to navy blue. The orange morning light on the skyline seemed to be fainting in the night, with a kind of elegant charm like an oriental ink painting.

Rick had maintained this posture for a night without changing. Only those quiet eyes could see the changing thoughts in his mind. Suddenly, Rick turned around, shook his stiff limbs, then walked to the sofa in the hall and sat down, picked up the landline and dialed a number.

The sound of "beep..." continued to echo in the quiet space. After a long time, the other party picked it up. Rick pulled the corner of his mouth and said, "Let's do this!"

"Who?" The voice on the opposite side was confused, obviously not reacting. It was only five o'clock in the morning. For Hollywood, where the schedule was reversed, it was the time for deep sleep. It was normal to have such a reaction. "Rick?" The other party also recognized Rick's voice and said in surprise, "Cao, do you know what time is now?"

Rick gently pulled the corner of his mouth, "Joe, please, you know, this matter can only be resolved as soon as possible, the longer it is, the more troublesome it will be."

On the other end of the phone was Joseph. Although Joseph was in deep sleep, he had now become alert to his agent. His brain quickly woke up and he sat up. "You know I don't have much work here, and the important things are there."

"But I don't need to repeat the importance of Hugo again." Although there are countless big-name actors within the International Innovation Management Company, Rick's attention to Hugo is increasing day by day, not only because Hugo's prospects are the most promising, Hugo, who is 27 years old this year, is likely to become the pillar of the entertainment industry in the next ten years; but also because of Hugo's alertness yesterday afternoon, he reduced a lot of losses. Therefore, Rick will never miss Hugo.

Joseph was not blinded by Rick's flattery, but just pulled the corners of his mouth slightly, "Rick, as long as you accept our proposal."

"No problem, then do it!" Rick said firmly, and then the two of them hung up the phone one after another.

Rick was just a little stunned, then dialed Ali Emmanuel's phone number and became busy. The famous "Midnight Political Change" in the history of Hollywood's brokerage business development officially broke out on this day before the sun set off.

After Joseph hung up the phone, he was completely sleepy. He clearly realized that from today on, their friends would face a brand new challenge. The phone call just now was to open the door to another world.

Looking back on what happened yesterday afternoon, Joseph still felt incredible, and he felt more and more that Hugo might be more suitable to be an agent. Hugo's keen intuition was too terrible.

Rick did encounter a traitor. When Rick's assistant Jim Snow contacted others, he accidentally notified someone who should not be notified because he was too panic. So before Rick's uprising broke out, he was intercepted by Marvin.

At that time, Rick was dragged out of the office by security guards. In the eyes of the whole company, he was surrounded in the center like a stray dog. Marvin scolded Rick for being a traitor, hoping that the whole company would see Rick's true face. Although everyone in the company knew what was going on, this is the Game of Thrones, success, defeat, and history were written by the winners. Rick was exposed before it was launched, and Marvin naturally occupied the moral commanding heights. Those who had agreed with Rick secretly did not dare to stand up blatantly, which immediately put Rick in a desperate situation of isolation and helplessness.

In desperate situation, Rick also showed amazing momentum.

Rick did not show any weakness for accusing Marvin of destroying internal unity for his own selfishness and even engaging in vicious competition with his colleagues. This accusation almost completely pulled off Marvin's fig leaf, which made Marvin almost fainted in anger. Then Rick said with confidence that he wanted to set up his own business and those who were interested could defect to him.

During the confrontation, Rick pointed out an important fact. Marvin didn't know much about brokerage business from beginning to end. He was just a simple businessman. International Innovation Management Company was able to reach its current position from a medium-sized brokerage company to a three-legged member of the industry, relying on the mutual help of senior partners. Now, Marvin has to take over the company again, which is a real disaster.

After saying that, Rick was proud to leave the company, with Jim alone, and he looked lonely.

But how could Marvin let Rick leave safely? He also realized that Rick had sorted out the information of his agent, so he ordered Rick to keep the information because these were the company's property and Rick had no right to take it away.

Rick is of course valuable, but the official box in Rick's hand is the real high-value product, so Marvin will definitely leave this information at all costs.

As a result, Rick did something shocking. In front of everyone, he opened the official box in his hand and sprinkled it out the window. A whole box of information drifted away from the height of the 23rd floor. In an instant, the whole sky was strolling blankly, and it looked like it was snowing.

Rick's powerful move, rather than to make a complete move, stunned everyone in the office, and Marvin's face turned red, as if he was about to explode at any time.

Joseph and Carl, who arrived at the company, witnessed this scene with their own eyes. The flying paper was enough to cause any paparazzi to be crazy, let alone all the agents on the scene. Although Rick has come to this point, his means, his abilities and qualifications are all the capital to make a comeback, leaving the mountains without worrying about burning fire; but these materials are equivalent to Rick's left and right hands, and anyone who can get them can reach the top.

Therefore, the 23rd floor of the International Innovation Management Company was in a strange state of tension. On the one hand, he was frightened by Rick, on the other hand, he was concerned about Marvin's strength and his ubiquitous eyeliner in the company, but on the other hand, he was thinking about the spilled information, and he was unbearable.

Under such circumstances, Rick threw the empty official box directly on the ground, and then left the company calmly with Jim. No one dared to stop him. Even Marvin could only glar and helpless.

Joseph knew that there must be someone inside the company who was willing to leave with Rick, but they would not act rashly before they were exposed. Because of Hugo's reminder, Rick canceled the "Tetace Fly Party", so Marvin sent the people who surrounded the spies to the party scene and returned empty-handed, and no one saw it, so it is still a mystery who would leave with Rick.

Those who stay in the company can calmly leave copies of the information in their hands, and even take away the original information directly.

Because Joseph and Carl themselves were like this, they quietly took their information away.

In fact, in the agency industry, qualifications represent ability. Take Joseph as an example. When he first took over Hugo, he had no resources and relied on the name of the company to carry out his work, so his ability was limited. However, with Joseph's lengthening business in Hollywood and the rise of Hugo's career, Joseph's information book also became thicker bit by bit. Now the information that Joseph can take away cannot be underestimated.

Afterwards, Rick had a call with Joseph. Because Rick was discovered by Marvin in advance, this forced him to change his plan, and the matter of starting a self-employed business became more difficult. Whether it was sponsorship funds or other brokers, it was hindered by the International Innovation Management Company to be one of the three major brokerage companies. It was not a futile reputation, but Marvin's assets and connections were even more jealous.

Under such circumstances, Joseph proposed Hugo's investment.

When Rick learned about Hugo's plan, he was indeed shocked. Hugo actually turned Joseph into a manager, then signed the agency contract to him, and was willing to invest $5 million to become one of the partners of the new company. However, Joseph also said that Hugo had no interest in managing the company, and Hugo would not interfere in the company's affairs, but he had to ensure Hugo's independence and autonomy.

Rick realized at this time that Hugo was actually the real oriole. After hanging up the phone, Rick fell into deep thought. He not only needed to clarify a way of thinking about what happened recently, but also needed to think about Hugo's positioning clearly.

Faced with such a proposal, Rick has no reason to refuse, and Hugo's conditions are perfect, and he has no need to refuse. In fact, in the entertainment industry, it is not uncommon for top actors to invest in production companies themselves. They will prepare to make movies by themselves, whether as director, screenwriter, or actor, use their own funds to invest and then seek profit. Hugo's actions are actually just an investment act, which is not surprising.

However, Rick must have an accurate positioning of Hugo. On the one hand, Hugo will become a senior partner of the company. Although he does not take power and does not care about the matter, he still has the right to speak. In order to avoid such a thing as Marvin, Rick believes that Hugo's investment must be below three million US dollars.

On the other hand, Hugo will be his artist, which means he will take on Hugo's agency affairs, which is completely beneficial and harmless for him, and it is something he has always dreamed of. But the point is how should he grasp the size of how the two people get along? Not only because of Hugo's investment, but also because Hugo's stunning flash in this incident, even if it was just two moments, it was enough to make Rick look at him with admiration.

Of course, the most important thing is to think clearly about the recent events and future arrangements. This thought was all night long. In the end, Rick gave Joseph a call and agreed to the proposal.

Joseph looked at the phone in his hand, but remembered the last conversation. He was very curious why Rick had the courage to throw away all the information in the official document box. This was almost a direct proof of Rick's agent's career. No one should be reluctant to let it go. But Rick answered this way.
