Hostile Negotiation is a mission in Grand Theft Auto IV triggered after a phone call. Niko saves Roman after he is kidnapped by Dimitri Rascalov.

Description

Once the player has completed Have a Heart and Photo Shoot, Niko Bellic will receive a call from Mallorie Bardas, who tells him that Roman has been kidnapped. Dimitri Rascalov sends a violent picture of Roman held at gunpoint which Niko mutters at (if you call Dimitri after reading the text, Niko will angrily curse at him, saying he will cut his fucking head off and threaten him).

Trivia

The events in Hostile Negotiation mark one of the few links between the GTA IV storyline and its episodic counterparts. In this example, the events shortly prior to this mission are played through the perspective of Johnny Klebitz in The Lost and Damned episodic content. It is revealed that Johnny Klebitz kidnapped Roman because Ashley owed Dimitri's men a favor after acquiring a large debt. This side of the kidnap, the mission name is Roman's Holiday, and has Johnny and Malc kidnapping Roman after gambling at his usual spot and then taking him to the warehouse in Bohan's Industrial District.
This mission, along with some other missions, is triggered automatically by a phone call.
While talking to Roman after saving him, Niko will say that he gives Roman money; but Niko is never shown giving money to him before or after this point it is possible that this is featured in a cutscene in one of the Deleted Missions.
This event is also briefly referenced in the original GTA IV storyline, in the form of Roman sending Niko a text explaining how a biker kidnapped him.
Once you receive the picture message of Roman from Dimitri, Niko will talk furiously about him, saying; "You've crossed the line, Dimitri"!
If you try to land on the roof of the warehouse with a helicopter, you will be shot by two guys standing on the roof with rocket launchers.
The staircase where you will go down (after you have rescued Roman) can actually be used to speed up the mission (on the part when you are about to save him); instead of going to the yellow marker, go upstairs, then you will hear the dialogue of Roman and the captor (because you are already at the same floor with them, only that you are outside the warehouse). Most of the henchmen from inside the building will take aggressive action and go up the stairs as well, making them prone to gunfire and, therefore, easier to kill (they have no cover). So it makes the mission a killing spree instead of a takedown.
An interesting phone call can take place if Niko calls Dimitri after he receives the photo of Roman. Niko will furiously describe how he will cut off Dimitri's face, and hang it on his wall to remind himself of what a treacherous, cheating scumbag looks like, then saying "Goodbye, friend." Niko calls him "friend" as a reference to Dimitri ending his own text messages to Niko with "Your friend, Dimitri."
There is a Carbine Rifle in one of the rooms on the bottom floor of the warehouse.
If you killed Ivan Bytchkov in the mission 'Ivan The Not So Terrible', a Russian-American goon will shout 'Say hello to Ivan the Terrible for me!" before being shot by Niko, possibly explaining Ivan had more connections with the Russian Mafia than previously known about.
If you have Dwayne's special ability you can call him and he will send two of his guys round to help.
As this mission is triggered by a phone call and not optionally triggered on the players own time by going to a location, it can be costly in terms of losing a prized vehicle, for example, if the mission triggers immediately following a date and before Niko can park at a safehouse and save. The game provides advance warning that the mission is coming by having Mallorie phone Niko a number of game hours prior to the mission expressing her concern that Roman never came home last night.

+'''Hostile Negotiation''' is a mission in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]] triggered after a phone call. Niko saves Roman after he is kidnapped by [[Dimitri Rascalov]].
 == Description ==
-Provided the player has completed [[Photo Shoot]], [[Have a Heart]], and [[Roman's Sorrow]], [[Niko Bellic]] will get a call from [[Mallorie]], saying that [[Roman]] has been kidnapped. [[Dimitri Rascalov]] (Niko's nemesis) sends a violent picture of Roman held at [[Shotgun|gunpoint]] which Niko mutters at. Head over to the warehouse in [[Bohan]] and run to the back. Use the element of surprise and don't use [[Weapons in GTA IV|any guns]] on your way to the yellow marker. Pick up the [[AK-47|assault rifle]] near the yellow marker. Niko will automatically gain cover and spot [[Roman Bellic|his cousin Roman]] on the very top floor of the giant warehouse. Using the element of surprise, change to a [[Weapons in GTA IV|weapon]] that you think can take out a bunch of people at once (like a grenade). Fire it to show the [[Russian Mafia|goons]] you mean business!
+Once the player has completed [[Have a Heart]] and [[Photo Shoot]], [[Niko Bellic]] will receive a call from [[Mallorie Bardas]], who tells him that [[Roman Bellic|Roman]] has been [[Roman's Holiday|kidnapped]]. [[Dimitri Rascalov]] sends a violent picture of Roman held at gunpoint which Niko mutters at (if you call Dimitri after reading the text, Niko will angrily curse at him, saying he will cut his fucking head off and threaten him).

-Grab the AK-47 outside of the warehouse as power is needed, especially in the warehouse which is full of cover. At first, the thugs will not notice you at first. Take a burst of shots at a group of enemies and aim for the heads. Take out every guard from the first floor while in cover. Some are in cover too, so go inside and finish them. Try to kill any guards on upper floors too. Walk up the stairs to the second floor and look to your right. About five goons are hiding. Shoot them and use their cover to kill the rest of the people on the second floor. Make your way to the third floor and shoot the goons on the roof that become visible. Kill the last of the ones inside and walk up to the room that Roman is being held in.

+*[[Hostile Negotiation/Walkthrough|Mission walkthrough]]
-The last guard has [[Body Armor|heavy armor]] and will need several shots to kill. Walk in after he is dead and a cutscene shows Roman Bellic and an unknown kidnapper emerge from the back of the room.
-Use any un and free-aim it to the kidnapper. Quickly fire because he will kill Roman if he knows you're aiming at him.
-Once Roman Bellic is freed, you will see a scene where the goon is executed and Roman is freed and injured. Get into the nearby [[Bobcat]] with Roman and drive him to your [[South Bohan Safehouse|safehouse in Bohan]]. Make sure the truck doesn't hit any explosive barrels near the warehouse as this will blow you up.
-After this Roman reveals his gambling addiction and also a few in-game hours after you drop Roman off, he will call you to inform that he has purchased a new [[Middle Park East Safehouse|penthouse]] in [[Middle Park East]], [[Algonquin]] to hide from Dimitri. You can now use that as your [[Safehouses in GTA IV|safehouse]]. Also because Roman is making a great deal of money, he's bought a new fleet of cabs for his Cab Service. Instead of the [[Roman's Taxi|rusty old Esperantos]], it's now black [[Cavalcade]]s.
