The Wolf of Los Angeles.
Chapter 511 Demons, Monsters, and Cthulhu
In his office on the 16th floor of the Coast Building, Hawke looked at the unremarkable HP computer in front of him and asked Campos, "Has Wenner confirmed it?"
Campos replied, "It's confirmed."
"I checked the laptop, and everything is normal," said Hiro, an electronic warfare expert at Butterfly.
Edward connected the power and turned it on.
The laptop was turned on, and the Windows 2000 system desktop appeared quickly.
Hawke glanced at the contents of the hard drive, which contained many videos of Wenner and Abedin taking selfies.
These things are useless. He handed the notebook to Yero: "Check her email, but don't leave any trace."
Hiero took the laptop, connected it to an external hard drive, and started the parsing program. He then connected to the network and quickly accessed Abedin's private email account, secretly copying and importing all the emails into the external hard drive.
Next, he used the work emails to find the business email address that Silali used.
The comparison confirms that Hillary Clinton did indeed extensively violate regulations by using a business email address to send working emails to Congress.
This is a strictly prohibited act, tantamount to leaking secrets.
Hiero acted very quickly; after copying, he swiftly withdrew, disconnected from the network, and shut down the computer.
With the support of Twitter's supercomputing capabilities, all traces have been erased.
Even if experts were to track them down, the trail would eventually lead back to India. Given Abedin and Wenner's Indian identities, it would be highly likely that the perpetrators would be identified as Indians.
Hawke always remembered his third brother, who received super VIP treatment from him.
One day, Third Brother will remember his kindness.
Hiero opened the external hard drive, briefly summarized the exported emails, and said to Hawke, "A total of 8566 emails were found, of which 5247 were related to Hillary or Congress, and they were using private email accounts in violation of regulations."
Hawke nodded: "You need to refine and organize the emails. Do it now."
Yero got busy.
Hawke instructed, "This matter must not be disclosed to anyone. I will inform you when the time comes to use it."
Campos and Hiero both knew they had to be careful about what happened to Sila.
Hiero was busy until the afternoon before he finished his work. After leaving his portable hard drive, he left the Coast Building with Campos.
Hawke temporarily kept these as top secret.
The email scandal that led to the mysterious deaths of several people is obvious to anyone with a brain.
Now that things have come to this, there's no turning back.
Retreat means certain death.
Moving forward would put Tom Emer at the forefront, creating the most fiercely contested election in recent decades.
We must push both sides to fight to the death.
Even after the election results are in, the situation will not improve.
Tom Emmer is an ambitious man, and Hawke knows it very well.
But now his concern isn't that Tom Emmo is ambitious, but that he's not ambitious enough.
Hawke not only wants to prevent Hillary Clinton from taking office, but also wants to use the fierce infighting between the two parties during the election to further tear apart American society.
In the following days, Hawke and Steve Nutter developed a plan for the Minority Rights Protection Association to form a professional team before the New Year to join Tom Emmer's campaign office and assist with LGBTQ-related matters.
When necessary, Steve will attend Tom Emmer's public events.
Multiculturalism and sports are now thriving in North America and have an ever-growing influence.
The LGBTQ movement gained even more momentum after the Los Angeles City Council passed the California Same-Sex Marriage Act and the California Diversity Act.
In terms of gender diversity, California already has nearly fifty genders, and this number continues to grow over time.
Against this backdrop, another awards season has arrived in Hollywood.
No one can ignore the guiding and driving role of Hollywood movies in the cultural field.
Over the past few decades, American cultural invasion has often been spearheaded by Hollywood movies, which also serve as the best vehicle for conveying so-called universal values.
Many songs that sound sweet and sung actually contain poisonous cores.
As a result, many people are praising so-called universal values, but they forget one thing: Hollywood movies are just a vehicle; Europe and America really promote so-called universal values through airplanes and cannons.
This awards season, Hawke has prepared Hollywood and America's favorite feast: the biographical film "Philip," which directly reflects the LGBTQ movement.
The Hollywood film industry has always been closely intertwined with politics.
Hawke went to Paramount Studios in Hollywood to attend the release conference for "Philip".
The film, distributed by Paramount Pictures, will hit North American theaters in December.
Unlike last year's "Los Angeles Fire," "Philip" is less commercially viable. It will first have limited screenings in a dozen theaters in major cities such as Los Angeles, New York, and San Francisco to control word-of-mouth and make it easier to compete for an Oscar.
"The world premiere of the film will be held in Philip's hometown of San Francisco," said Anderson, distribution manager from Paramount Pictures, as he briefed investors and producers on the distribution of "Philip."
He quickly said, "Starting this month, various memorial events for Philip will be held in San Francisco and throughout California and across the United States to commemorate the second anniversary of Philip's murder."
Hawke listened without offering any opinion for the time being.
Steve Nutter added, "I suggest setting the premiere on the anniversary of Philip's murder."
Anderson nodded and said, "That's the premiere date Paramount has set."
"How are your preparations going?" Tom Cruise invested in the film and will also appear in it under his real name.
After Philippe's murder, he was the first A-list Hollywood star to speak out in support of the LGBTQ movement and also attended Philippe's funeral.
Steve said, "I have mobilized the rights protection association's chapters across the United States and contacted other organizations, including the Matasin Association. This wave will sweep across Europe and the United States again."
Anderson then went on to describe plans for media outreach and Oscar contention.
These are things the six major Hollywood studios are used to doing; they all have well-established plans. Hawke suggested one thing: "Invite Tom Emmer to the premiere."
Anderson paused for a moment, thought for a second, remembered who this was, and said, "Okay, I'll extend the invitation to him on behalf of the production team."
Eric Ethan said, "The person who invited me included my name."
Tom Cruise, having already latched onto Hawke's powerful backer, wasn't worried about contributing a little more, saying, "And me too."
Anderson replied, "No problem, I'll get on it right away."
After the meeting, Steve left Paramount Studios first to handle campaign-related matters.
Hawke, Eric, and Tom Cruise visited Ethan's Studios, which is also located in Hollywood.
Catherine, a square-faced woman, happened to be there. She greeted Hawke and Tom Cruise and quickly had someone bring over some black tea.
Today, the financial backer who supported Eric back then has also reaped a rich reward.
Hawke chatted with her for a few minutes, then the conversation turned to the film "Philips," and he asked, "How are the contenders for this year's Oscars?"
Tom Cruise simply stated, "This year is a weak year for the Oscars, with no particularly strong films. As things stand, the only films that truly have any real competitiveness are The Coen Brothers' 'No Country for Old Men' and Thomas Anderson's 'There Will Be Blood.'"
Eric explained the situation he knew: "The primary award target for 'There Will Be Blood' should be Best Actor. Daniel Day-Lewis moved to Los Angeles right after the last Academy Awards ceremony in order to make an award run easier."
Hawke was aware of this; Daniel Day-Lewis's popularity with the Academy, having won three Academy Awards for Best Actor in his previous life, was certainly related to his acting skills, but his active involvement in public relations was also an important factor.
While other nominees were still participating in various film or commercial activities, Daniel Day-Lewis had already been involved in Oscar public relations and promotion for a year.
Hawke remembered that in his previous life, the big winner of this year's Oscars was "No Country for Old Men".
He asked, "Is No Country for Old Men related to Harvey Weinstein?"
Tom Cruise replied, "The production company for this film is Miramax. The script was finalized before Harvey Weinstein left Miramax, but when he was ousted from Miramax by Disney, he couldn't take these film projects with him. Disney believed in his talent for awards, and for the past two years, their focus on winning Oscars has been entirely on Harvey's former projects."
Hawke nodded and reminded him, "Pay close attention to 'No Country for Old Men.' Although we have a huge advantage in public opinion, we can't be careless."
Hollywood award-winning films are deeply influenced by the socio-political environment. For example, when Black people are needed to fight hard, Black actors and actresses are born.
Hollywood, at the forefront of society, strongly supports the LGBTQ movement, at least on the surface, and the Oscars, as the face of Hollywood, naturally make its own statement.
Tom Cruise added, "This film is not just an LGBTQ movie, but also an inspirational film that reflects the social situation. Eric handled many plot points very cleverly, and the response was very good in multiple internal screenings and theater manager screenings."
Although Hawke did not see the test screening, he had skimmed through Eric's script.
A man, who gave his all for his family and sick sister, ultimately fell to the knee of a white SFPD officer and has yet to receive justice.
It contains a lot of LGBTQ elements, but even more so the heartache and injustices related to family, responsibility, and society.
Even ordinary people can relate to this.
America is a paradise for the rich, but there are too many ordinary people like Philip who struggle to survive.
Even those from a higher social class than Philip did not have an easy life.
Over the past four or five years, with several films made, Hawke has full confidence in Eric's directing abilities: "I believe that 'Philip' will become a classic."
Eric, particularly confident in his area of expertise, said, "It definitely will."
He smiled and said, "Perhaps I also come from an ordinary background and understand what the lower strata of society are really like."
Tom Cruise also laughed: "Some directors can portray the lower class as living in upscale apartments in Manhattan, where they can buy a villa in New York with two years' income. Is that really the lower class?"
Hollywood films that manage to circulate overseas are mostly decent ones, but there are also many outrageous ones. Hawke said, "Richard is a top-tier director now, and once he wins another Oscar for Best Director, he will become a top director."
Eric frankly said, "Although I really want to win, the chances of the same director winning Best Director two years in a row are extremely small."
Tom Cruise nodded: "The Oscars are as adept at playing the balancing act as Washington politicians."
Hawke thought for a moment, then looked at Eric: "We prioritize Best Picture, then Best Director."
“I’ve already won an Oscar for Best Director, so the need isn’t that urgent.” Eric looked a bit tired. “If I could win another Oscar for Best Picture, I would take a year off.”
After the LGBTQ movement, Hawke has no other pressing needs in the film industry for the time being, saying, "Where do you want to go on vacation?"
Eric had been thinking about this for a while: "I'm planning to go hunting in Africa. You mentioned last time that there's a base there where I can get a legal hunting license?"
Hawke said, “In Damajing, a border city in Ethiopia, whenever you want to go there, just contact the Savior directly.”
Tom Cruise also wanted to go, but as a public figure, if photos or news of his hunting trip were to circulate, countless criticisms would arise.
That evening, Tom Emmer called Hawke from Washington to say he had received an invitation to the premiere of "Philip" and would be traveling to San Francisco the following month to attend the film's global premiere and, incidentally, to commemorate Philip, who made significant contributions to the civil rights movement.
Almost simultaneously, Steve Nutter released the trailer for "Philip" on his personal Twitter account and the official Twitter account of the Rights Protection Association.
The pre-release publicity and marketing for the film thus began.
Paramount Pictures, Twitter, and Tom Cruise are all making efforts because it directly relates to their own interests. Numerous non-profit organizations, such as the Matshin Association and the Rights Protection Association, are also promoting the film's dissemination.
Tom Emmer's campaign team contacted various media outlets and actually invested resources.
At a regular White House press briefing, George Walker, who was present in person, specifically spoke about "Philip," saying that he had seen it, that it was very well made, and that every American should go to the theater to see it.
The LGBTQ movement has once again surged in major cities across the United States, including Los Angeles and San Francisco.
California has passed the Diversity Act and the Same-Sex Marriage Act, and more states are following suit.
In a recent campaign press conference, Tom Emmer stated that if elected, he would work to promote the legalization of multiculturalism in the federal government, among other things.
These are all efforts to gain the support of marginalized groups.
Today, the two parties, the Democratic Party and the Republican Party, are clearly divided on social movements.
The indescribable group, also known as the Cthulhus, is represented by the Donkey Party.
The demon and monster group, from the moment it began to develop on a large scale, stood on the opposite side of Cthulhu.
The elephant party, on the other hand, became the agent.
This election is not just a battle between the two parties, but also a super war between demons, monsters, and Cthulhu. (End of Chapter)
