All Heavens Film and Television: Starting from Caring for the Widow of a Comrade-in-arms

When Felix, Roy, and John saw the godfather coming out, they stood up immediately.

"godfather."

Russell waved his hand and led the crowd away.

Tom and Mike sat on chairs in the corner and looked at each other, then got up and walked into the study.

"Father."

Vito, who was in a daze, raised his head and asked, "Russell and his people are gone?"

"Yes." Tom nodded.

Vito looked at the two with some disappointment, and said, "It seems that the relationship between you and Russell is not very good, what do you think of him?"

Tom bowed his head in silence, and Mike looked at Russell and the others who had just walked out of the gate, and said, "I don't believe he would be so kind to send Sonny off. Besides, he killed our spokesperson in Las Vegas, Mo Green."

Vito looked at Tom, "Did you tell Mike?"

"Yes, this is a fact. Clemenza, Tessio and others all feel that Russell has malicious intentions..."

"Shut up! Tom, you've let me down. A man with a brain would never force Sonny's death on Russell's head. Why? See how Russell came today, with the New York Police Department The deputy director came, and the deputy director just acted as a door opener by his side, and shut up the people who came to watch the ceremony!"

"He can use such a method to tell us... If he wanted to kill Sonny, he would never send someone to use a murder weapon, understand?"

Vito slapped the table angrily, causing the vibration of the table to spread to the floor, making the soles of Tom and Mike's feet numb.

Seeing that the two bowed their heads in silence, Vito sighed and calmed down.

"Russell has brought me two pieces of information. One is that Sonny is likely to have something to do with the imitation 'Kachmansa' clothing brand that's popping up in Brooklyn. If Russell doesn't come back to New York, when I find out about this, I'm sure 100% believe that Sonny was killed by Russell, because Russell has a good reason for both the method of killing and the motive of committing the crime."

"But the mouse hiding in the dark sewer, I didn't expect him to return to New York alone and meet me..."

Vito lit a cigarette and sighed: "Russell is a man of great wisdom. He calmly resolved the misunderstanding between our two families and told me everything he knew."

"I also told Sonny what he did after he died."

Tom looked up at Mike, and Vito said: "If you have something to say, Mike is not an outsider."

Mike was taken aback for a moment, and Tom knew in his heart that the godfather had chosen the next heir.

"You also told him about Carlo's death?"

Vito nodded: "Yes, we all feel that things are not that simple."

On the way back to Peninsula Manor, five cars were driving on the spacious road.

Felix, who was sitting in the co-pilot, said in surprise: "Godfather, you said that Carlo was not stabbed to death by a killer, but was killed by Vito?"

Russell stared out of the car window and nodded: "If Carlo is bribed, then he will point all the crimes at me if he is alive."

Felix was stunned for a moment, and immediately cleared his mind.

American law is ruthless, it only looks at the content of the Constitution.However, if you are in a high position, you will definitely be able to escape legal sanctions.

However, if the evidence is solid and he is a public figure, it is not so simple to escape.

Once the relevant events are published in the newspapers, all citizens of the United States will become ombudsmen, keeping a close eye on the actions in the courts, and no one dares to bend the law for personal gain.

"Stop in front, and Felix tells John to go back, and we'll take a look around Brooklyn."

"Ok."

Ian stepped on the brakes, and then Felix got out of the car to inform John. Unexpectedly, John got out of the car obediently, walked to Russell's door, bent down and said a few compliments, and bent down to watch the godfather leave.

Although this move made Russell feel very comfortable, his impression of John also deteriorated.

Arriving at the intersection in front of the poor kiln in Brooklyn, Russell got off the car early and walked to the road for a stroll.

Here is where Jews, Italians, Poles...etc. gather.

They all escaped from the war, or were left behind by the surrender. Seeing the beauty of America, no one is willing to return to the mother country to suffer. They would rather be a beggar here than a farmer.

The streets are dirty, melon and fruit peels are all over the ground, and there is a smelly ditch near the base of the wall.

Thieves are looking for targets, and robbers are watching the crowd.

Russell saw two black men being dragged into an alley and beaten by four or five white men. The people around them seemed to be used to it, and they didn't even have the enthusiasm to watch the excitement.

He didn't bother to care, walked two streets forward, and saw a market for department stores.

Almost every booth has imitations of the 'Kachmansa' brand, the fabric, workmanship, and trademark are the same as the genuine ones, but there are some differences in details.

Russell asked the stall owner: "How do you sell the clothes?"

"$8!"

"It's too expensive. It's only $6 in Queens."

The boss said: "Impossible! The clothes in Queens are all imported from Brooklyn, and it is impossible to sell them cheaper than me. You can see clearly, this is Kachimansa, a big brand in the United States. If you go to the mall to buy, This dress costs you more than 30 dollars!"

Russell laughed: "Actually, I want to do this kind of business. I have a factory in California..."

When the boss heard this, he obviously lost interest.

"The clothes on your body must be very expensive. I have seen the world, don't deceive me, okay? During this period of time, many people have come to ask where to buy, and to be honest, I don't know."

Russell handed over ten dollars and said, "How did you buy it?"

The boss accepted the money naturally, and it seems that he has done this more than once.

"I hand over the money to the sheriff in uniform and I have two packs at my stall the next day."

"Sheriff?"

"The sheriff who appears every time is not the same person, but the clothes are the same. We only recognize the clothes, not the people."

The boss who received the money is very honest, and he will say anything, regardless of it.

If Russell came two days later, I am afraid that the boss will go to see Jesus.

Only recognize clothes, not people?

This method is very good.

The fake sheriffs that appear each time are different, so naturally they cannot be locked by the police station, and it can also make thieves and robbers afraid to take action, and it can also make the bosses who buy goods feel at ease...

Zuzu, the person who came up with this method does have a bit of a brain.

Chapter 165 Marilyn Monroe, back to Sicily

This research in Brooklyn was not a waste of time.

Russell got some small information from it, and first analyzed from the words of the boss, and concluded that all the imitations came from Brooklyn, and the sales volume was so large that it was definitely not something that small workshops could afford.

So there must be a large garment factory tucked away in the corner of Brooklyn.

Secondly, the patrolmen in various streets must have accepted bribes from fake sheriffs. Otherwise, why didn't the Brooklyn branch abolish such a serious violation of the law?There must be interests entangled!

Back at Peninsula Manor, Felix and Roy sat respectfully on the sofa in the study, reporting on their work during this period.

Kaqimansha clothing has been promoted to one of the top ten brands in the United States, and its annual sales profit reached 3000 million. This is the net profit after excluding employee salaries, taxes, infrastructure, marketing and advertising, etc.

Russell is not very satisfied with this, because Kaqimansha clothing has opened a high-end customization area, which does not make much money, which means that the rich people's recognition of Kaqimansha is insufficient and needs to be improved.

However, the net profit of the American trading branch was less than 8000 million, only about [-] million US dollars.It's not that the Bucchio family took it privately, but that there are too many businessmen in New York port, and Europe, Africa, and Southeast Asia will all come here...the competition is very fierce.

"Felix, the director of the New York Harbor Maritime Administration, did you take special care of you?"

"Godfather, he takes good care of us. But the directors of the Maritime Engineering Association have a strong prejudice against us, thinking that we are Italians, and Italians should do their best and earn the least money."

Russell frowned and asked, "This is serious discrimination. You should teach him a lesson."

"Yes, I am planning a big news, enough to cleanse the marine industry association."

Russell nodded with a serious face: "No matter where you do business, the first thing you need to do is those honest customers with righteous faces, and the second is the mice parading the streets."

"You don't want to get involved in the imitation of Kaqimansha, and withdraw all your people. We must establish a good businessman image in New York and let the public love our brand and products."

"clear."

Roy questioned: "Godfather, the appearance of imitations has seriously affected the reputation of the Kaqimansha brand, shouldn't we pursue it?"

"Of course, this is what I want to tell you. I will ask someone to investigate later, and all the evidence found will be handed over to you, and you will directly appeal to the court on behalf of the company."

Roy said solemnly: "Okay, Godfather, I will definitely do a good job and let them pay the price!"

Going to court is a normal procedure. If there is no appeal, the impact on the brand will continue, and the public will think that Kaqimansha is inclined to the slums.

If these poor people are allowed to wear Kaqimansha imitations and walk around the streets, then those who buy genuine products will feel unhappy...

This is also a class issue that has been discussed since ancient times.

That night, Russell called Bell City.

Let Philisto come to New York to lead the work of identifying counterfeit goods, with the full cooperation of John, the deputy director of the New York Police Department.Tell him clearly that he must first check the Brooklyn branch proactively, and then check the location of the imitation factory.

After everything is found out, no matter whether the boss or the umbrella behind the scenes is found, the imitation factory must be destroyed to prevent the continuous spread of piracy and restore the reputation loss suffered by Kaqimansha.

When Philisto came to New York, he did indeed follow the orders of the godfather. He first found John to check the Brooklyn branch, and then sent someone to check the location of the factory.

In the end, using various methods, only one deputy captain of the action team of the sub-bureau was found out... Can this position protect such a large interest group?

The day after he finished calling Philisto last time, Russell returned to Bell City. After he heard about this incident on the phone, he sneered and said: "Since a lean sheep has been sent to us, whether there is meat or not Eat them all."

Philisto understood, and sent the vice-captain to court the next day. Under the operation, the judge only sentenced him to two years, but the vice-captain was stabbed to death as soon as he entered the prison, which is a pity.

As for the imitation factory, Philisto's people also found clues.Who would have thought that a large garment factory would be hidden in an abandoned sewer?

With nothing to say, John applied to the director for dispatching all police forces to destroy this factory that endangered public order and affected the reputation of a big American brand.

The director was very face-saving and mobilized two-thirds of the police force in New York to jointly enforce the law.

Taking advantage of the dark night to take down this black factory and rescue hundreds of stowaways imprisoned by violent means...

This news was listed on the front page of the newspaper, with the headline "Justice Police Destroyed the Black Factory, Rescued Hundreds of Stowaways, and Restored the Million Dollar Loss of the Kaqimansha Brand!" '

Only after seeing this news did New York citizens know that the poor ghosts in the slums were wearing pirated kachmanshas, ​​and the haze in their hearts was swept away.

Immediately, Kaqimansha Apparel Company issued a statement, severely condemning the pirates. The laws of the United States will not let go of these opportunistic things that damage the reputation of other people's brands, and they must be investigated to the end.

For several days in a row, New York newspapers were full of things about Kaqimansha. This wave of advertisements was launched very timely, which once again ignited the popularity of Kaqimansha.

The clothing company has also added anti-counterfeiting marks and applied for anti-counterfeiting patented technology.

In the future, it will be impossible for pirates to make high-end imitations.

The main purpose of the anti-counterfeiting mark is to allow people who love the Kaqimansha brand to easily analyze whether it is genuine.When the public has a pair of sharp eyes, then use comparisons and jealousy to naturally restrain the spread of piracy.

Who wants to be pointed at the nose by passers-by wearing a pirated version?Everyone wants to save face, especially the poor who are driven by vanity.

Two weeks later, Vito called and spoke to Russell for nearly two hours.

The main topic is along the black factory that was taken away.

"After the black factory collapsed, I asked Tom to visit a few stowaways. Most of them came from Europe and the Middle East, and they crossed the border from Canada into upstate New York."

Russell asked: "Did you find the snake head?"

"The smugglers are Irish, and they live in Toronto along the shores of Lake Ontario all year round."

Russell frowned: "Irish...but the New York Police Department did not capture the Irish, but the Soviets, Poles and Turks."

Vito thought about it, "Tessio never told me about the black factory. I asked him a few days ago, and he didn't know anything about it."

"Do you believe?"

Vito didn't answer, just said: "I handed this matter over to Clemenza, I hope he won't do anything wrong."

"Have the police closed their case on Sonny and Carlo's death?"

"Yes...Russell, I want to send a man to Sicily."

"Who?"

"Lucy, the bridesmaid at Connie's wedding, she's a good friend of Connie's."

Russell laughed: "She has Sonny's child?"

"you know?"

"When I first went to your house, I found out that Sonny and Lucy were friends."

Vito sighed: "It seems that Sonny has not handled his private life well, so do you agree?"

"Of course, let her go to Tommasino's."
