Hollywood What If Chapter 189
Two decades ago, Harvey Weinstein was accused of sexual harassment, even though he was "i".
He never did anything bad like that, acc to him. He was i! He was free from the sin of sexual harassment. He had many "friends" who could testify against the accusations.
However, the "friends" he had began to distahemselves from him because of the i he had instigated right now.
Harvey Weinstein was cleverly avoiding the media, but he knew he would still get a backsh.
The Miramax team predicted that The Bir Witch Project would exceed 100 million at the North Ameri box office, but it would be difficult for it to exceed 200 million.
In this regard, Harvey Weinsteihat the publicity he did was fruitful.
Still, there would be cuts before he could get his share of the pie.
ema Alliance would, of course, take 40% of the box offibsp;
On top of that, the distributor of The Bir Witch Project would also take a 30% cut. Miramax didn't dare to distribute the film because of the da might pose... But their meticulous pnning was useless anyway.
Well, the remaining box office share would be 30%, at least 30 million.
Harvey Weinstein ied about 10 million in advertising and movie prints, so the profit would be at least 20 million.
Unfortunately for the fat guy, it seemed that this movie would bring him zero profit.
The four families of the deceased wanted 10 million each!
Harvey Weinstein was the mastermind behind the promotion of The Bir Witch Project. This unique viral marketing caused four deaths after the riot that happened in Burkittsville, Marynd.
Knowing that Harvey Weinstein would be implicated, he decided to settle the matter out of court. With money, he hoped the four families would drop the wsuits.
Initially, the four families asked for 20 million! But this amount was too damaging for Harvey Weinstein and Miramax.
Even though the profits from the videotapes were plentiful, most of the money would be used to i in more movies.
The avaible cash that Harvey Weinstein could take out of the bank was only 50 million. That was already a generous amount.
It was a good thing that his taletorney lowered the amount to 10 million, any less and the four families would have tihe wsuit instead.
Harvey Weinstein gritted his teeth and accepted the deal. The situation could send him to prison, so he had no choice but to accept reality.
Obviously, the profit he made from The Bir Witch Project was ent. In fact, he might lose about 50 million instead. Truly a pathetideavor.
Ahing, the current situation has caused the women around him to make trouble again. Just like what happened in the 1970s, the women who had accused him were reappearing... He reized most of them, but his lips were tightly sealed.
Fortunately, this matter was overshadowed by the riot i and The Bir Witch Project. The media focused more on The Bir Witch Projed the four families who lost their loved ones. Of course, the women who accused him were also interviewed in the media.
In those days, Harvey Weinstei like the world was against him. He wondered what he had done. If there was one good thing, it was that he rotected by his "loyal friends" for the time being. More specifically, his position in the industry protected him.
"Fuck the Bir Witch Project!"
Suddenly, Harvey Weinstein could not help but curse the film, bming it for his own misdeeds.
This movie had brought him nothing but backsh. Now he had to y low until the media fot about it.
.........

...
ce was all Kazir Grey could say. Actually, he had no iion of exaggerating the situation. He just wao tell the truth about The Bir Witch Projebsp;
That is why Kazir decided to tact the people who had seen the movie to testify. That was his real iion.
He then found a couple who took a picture while watg the movie as evidence... Kazir Grey didn't expect Harvey Weio be caught on camera! He had no idea that the fat guy actually watched the movie personally!
Kazir wao use the picture as a way to make trouble for Harvey Weinstein. Use it to show that Harvey Weinstein was actually the mastermind.
Kazir had a grudge against the fat guy and it was the right time to get back at him.
However, Kazir didn't expect a riot to break out and four people to be killed.
Kazir's attitude ged after that. He felt that this was no longer about him. This was not about him taking revenge.
People o know the truth about the Bir Witbsp;
Even though it might get him into trouble, Kazir Grey decided to do the right thing.
He used his es and tacted 20th tury Fox and Warner Bros. These two giants had a close retionship with him and would likely cooperate.
The rest was history.
"I am sure that Harvey Weinstein has his own way of trag down the leak. He will definitely know that I'm the one responsible for his problem. Heh, let's leave it at that. He fucked around, so he found out."
He was a little disheartehat Harvey didn't go to jail this time.
"He didn't kill the four people directly and he never incited violence. He just started a massive prank..."
As for the sexual harassment allegations, they were overshadowed.
Well, the feminist movement was still rising. As far as the #MeToo movement is ed, it got a lot nition because of the i, which was still in its infancy at the time.
Another fact was the people who protected Harvey Weinstein.
A lot of people in the industry knew what he did, they just kept quiet about it and act like nothing happened.
However, Kazir khat Harvey Weinstein would go to jail iure, and he would make sure that certain future reserved.
