Carlos Ghosn on Hollywood approaching him

In an interview with a television broadcast network, Carlos revealed that he planned the whole escape by himself, which was rumoured to involve 15 people, costing millions. For the first half of his escape, he boarded a bullet train undetected to the Osaka airport. In an interview with the same broadcast network, Ghosn opened up about his escape and stated that he knew that he was taking a risk and also knew that if he got the people around him in the loop, not only were they at risk, but there was a chance of slippage, rumours, and leaks. He further stated that because of this, he had to work by himself only with people who were going to operate and nobody else.
