Hollywood Road

Through the relationship of lawyer Robert in the police station, Bill Rosses quickly figured out the cause and effect of the incident. Except for the fact that the Catholic attacked Murphy, the rest of the incident can be said to be entirely at the fault of Daisy. On the personal side, fortunately, they didn't attack too harshly. The Catholics only suffered some skin injuries, and they are not serious, otherwise they will be quite troublesome later.

Robert had already gone to the police station to meet Daisy. The few of them didn't even think that there were reporters around, and they didn't know where the reporters came from.

Later, Bill Rosses personally contacted the reporter according to the number provided by the company's mail room, and agreed to meet at the Stanton studio according to Murphy's intention.

The appointment was made at the Stanton studio because Murphy was going to meet the reporter in person, after all, it might affect his overall plan.

As for whether the impact is good or bad, it depends on how it is operated.

"The other party is a freelance reporter."

In the office of Gal Gadot in the Stanton studio, Bill Rossis said to Murphy and Gal Gadot, "I am not affiliated with any media or group, mainly engaged in the business of filming news and then selling it to the media and TV stations. .”

Gal Gadot looked at Murphy, "Isn't this the same job as you did in the first place?"

"Sounds similar." Murphy rested his right hand on the armrest of the swivel chair, raised his chin, thought for a while, and said, "Freelance journalists have fewer scruples and are more difficult to deal with than media reporters."

As far as he knows, many freelance journalists do things more daringly than journalists affiliated with the media.

"He might offer a very high price?" Gal Gadot asked.

"Hmm..." Bill Ross nodded, "Very likely."

Murphy smiled, "If it were me, with such a piece of news in hand, especially if it looks bad for us after being exposed, it will definitely cost a lot of money!"

Gal Gadot couldn't help shaking his head, "How much can you ask for?"

"In the days when I was a freelance reporter, it would cost more than 300,000 US dollars..." Murphy thought for a while, "Now that the dollar is depreciating and the price of news is rising, if he asks for less than 500,000 US dollars , um...then it’s not a qualified freelance reporter.”

Both Bill Ross and Gal Gadot laughed, completely devoid of the seriousness and tension of dealing with crisis events.

In fact, Murphy doesn't think this is a crisis event, because with crises, there are often opportunities.

There was a knock on the door, and Gal Gadot's assistant pushed in and said, "Here he is."

Gal Gadot looked at Murphy and said, "Bring him here."

At the front desk of Stanton's studio, the black man was holding a briefcase, waiting patiently. Seeing the person who had received him go back and forth, he reached into the briefcase and pressed the recording button of the voice recorder.

"Mr. Williams..."

The assistant came over and made a gesture of invitation, "This way."

"Okay." The black man named Williams grinned, showing his white teeth, "Thank you."

Following the female assistant, Williams quickly walked into an office. The moment he entered the door, out of professional instinct, his eyes quickly turned around the office.

The office is the same as this studio, not too big, and the decoration is very elegant. The decorations on the wall are basically movie posters. "To" Chaos City", all of them are films directed by Murphy Stanton.

Then, he saw three people sitting around the desk.

The one closest to him is a middle-aged man, probably in his early forties, wearing a neat suit. Williams had done some research before he came. This must be Murphy Stanton's agent, one of the partners of AA. Bill Rossis.

His eyes moved slightly, and turned to a tall man, who looked younger than his actual age, about twenty-five or six years old,

The expression on his face was relatively indifferent, and he was so calm that no waves could be seen.

This is Murphy Stanton!

Williams is very clear that the other party is the real caller in the office.

Finally, his eyes fell on the only woman in the office. This woman's slender figure made her look unusually tall even when she was sitting. The well-fitting professional suit highlighted her shrewd and capable temperament. At the back of his head, simply tied into a ponytail, bright eyes were looking at him. Unlike Murphy Stanton's plainness, these eyes were as sharp as a sharp sword.

Although this woman had a slightly larger forehead and a slightly elongated face, she was an out-and-out beauty even compared to all the big Hollywood stars.

It's such a shame that a woman like that is hiding behind Murphy Stanton and doing behind-the-scenes work instead of continuing to play Wonder Woman.

For some reason, Williams' first thought when he saw Gal Gadot was Wonder Woman.

"Are you Hunnam-Williams?" Murphy glanced at him, pointed to a chair, and said, "Sit wherever you want."

Hearing the other party's tone that seemed plain but actually didn't care at all, Hannam-Williams felt a little unhappy, but thinking about the contents of the briefcase, he calmed down a little and sat on the chair.

Before he could speak, Bill Rosses stretched out his hand and said, "Where's the thing?"

Hannam-Williams frowned obviously. The other party was condescending and showed a sense of superiority everywhere, which made him very unhappy.

Whether it is Bill Rosses, or Murphy and Gal Gadot, they all seem very indifferent. This is not to say that they are extremely arrogant, but a strategy that was agreed in advance.

Seeing that Hannah Williams hadn't moved, Bill Rossis said impatiently, "You don't let us watch, how do we know whether what you said is true or not?"

"I'm a man of credibility..." Hannah Williams was interrupted forcefully by Bill Rossis as soon as he said it, "I don't care what kind of person you are, I only care about you I'm interested in what's in it."

"You..." Hannam-Williams blocked his throat in one breath, not to mention the discomfort.

"Mr. Williams!" Bill Rossis looked gloomy. "Our time is precious. If you don't have real materials, don't waste our time."

Although Hannam-Williams was very unhappy, he took out an envelope from the briefcase and handed it to Bill Rosses. Bill Rosses opened it and looked it over, and handed it to Murphy.

Murphy briefly browsed through the printed photos, and vaguely recognized that the man lying on the beach and being beaten was indeed the Catholic believer who attacked him. Although the men who beat him did not know each other, Daisy still remembered it.

"It's Daisy?" Gal Gadot didn't know the leader of Murphy's fan organization, so he leaned over to take a look, "Is it him?"

"Well, that's right." Murphy nodded lightly, and then continued to look through the photos. These photos were also mixed with photos of yesterday's queuing up for autographs. Among them, the boys who beat someone could be seen, "Obviously, they should They are all my supporters."

Faintly hearing the conversation between Murphy and Gal Gadot, Hannam-Williams smiled slightly, no matter how bad their attitude was, as long as they had these things in their hands, they would not obediently bow their heads and pay in the end ?

Great director? What happened to the big director? Isn't it the jobs that journalists like myself can ask for?

"Director Stanton..." Hannam-Williams said directly to the person who could really make the decision, without looking at Bill Rossis, "I was lucky yesterday and happened to shoot the film on the beach in Santa Monica. Such a scene, I attended your autograph meeting in the commercial center before, and I know this girl who is your die-hard fan."

He put on a smiling face on purpose, the smile seemed enthusiastic, but it contained a smugness, but it was quite obvious, "I like your movie very much, and I am also a fan of your movie. Although their attacker Hai Bian was really angry, but I did Based on professional instinct, I took these pictures.”

Murphy looked at Hannam-Williams quietly, letting him talk on and on.

"Back to my studio, I was worried that these pictures might affect your reputation," Hannam-Williams turned to look at Bill Rossis, "So, I took the initiative to contact your agent."

"Oh, so that's the case." Murphy seemed to see his own shamelessness from this freelance reporter, but he didn't accept this at all, and said, "Thank you! If you can send over the photos and negatives , I would be very happy."

He pondered for a while, "Well... how about it, to express my gratitude..."

The smile on Hannam-Williams's face was even brighter, and he thought that Murphy Stanton was a decent person, how much could he offer? One million dollars or two million dollars? I can't do anything for less than one million dollars! For a big director and super rich like him, this little money is nothing at all.

Get more than a million dollars from Murphy Stanton, and then sell the video to the media for hundreds of thousands of dollars...

Hannam-Williams is very sure of this point, there is a huge conflict between Murphy-Stanton and the Catholic Church, and the news of instructing fans to beat Catholics is definitely worth the price!

In this case, even if he gave some money to his subordinates as a reward, how could he still have one million dollars left over, so he could retire early.

Murphy seemed to be thinking about how to thank Hannam-Williams, and after thinking for a while, he said, "Since you are my supporter, in order to express my gratitude, how about this, Mr. Williams, I will send you my Personally signed full set of movies on Blu-ray."

"hat?" Hannam-Williams seemed unable to believe what he heard, "Director Stanton, what are you talking about? Give me a full set of signed movie discs?" (to be continued...)
