American Fame and Fortune - Chapter 841
Chapter 841 Storm
Los Angeles, Griffith Observatory.
Martin stood alone on the observatory, looking at a private residence near the park.
It’s quite far away, and nothing else can be seen except for the faint lights.
But he knew Ryan Reynolds’ party was about to start soon.
In order to promote the “Deadpool” movie project, the Canadian movie star who suffered the disastrous failure of “Green Lantern” really tried his best.
Sold the wedding room with his ex-wife Scarlett Johansson to organize a party.
At a high price, he obtained a key gift from Michelle Bryan that could impress several Fox executives.
Martin came down from the observatory, and the bodyguards scattered around accompanied him to the parking lot.
Just in time, Bruce drove back.
Martin got directly into the Escalade he drove and got out of several cars together.
Even if the police are secretly called this time, the result may not be much better.
In the brightly lit mansion, security personnel checked the incoming party supplies.
A middle-aged man said loudly: “Don’t make a mess, move all the things outside the hall and give them to the waiter.”
When it got dark, the party organizer Ryan Reynolds and his agent Cowell came to the villa together.
The party kicked off and everything started out normal.
Martin said: “I don’t know what the effect will be if we use public opinion to push us.”
The foreman immediately asked people to leave.
The case is before our eyes, inspiring TMZ reporters to keep working hard one by one.
Kewell got a call and nodded to Ryan Reynolds.
Holding used his status as a waiter to install miniature cameras in several rooms he thought were suitable, and continued to be busy with other work.
Similar things, if done purely out of justice, the results may be worse, and you may even get involved in it.
When Holding brought the wine, he heard them talking about the tidbits about Martin Davis.
Among them is Holding.
Ryan Reynolds stood up and said to the head waiter: “There is no need for service staff here. You can go to the annex building for the time being. Do not come out without my notice.”
Not long after, three senior executives from the 20th Century Fox production department rushed over one after another.
The person who had brought the things saw him, walked over quickly, and placed the two boxes in front of him.
Who in this field doesn’t want to be the editor-in-chief, or even the editor-in-chief?
Holding blinked, picked up the box and entered the villa.
Everyone is saying that Elizabeth Olsen is a weirdo. Just because Martin saved her life in the Burbank High School incident, she allowed Martin to do whatever he wanted and turned a blind eye as long as he didn’t do it in her home or in front of her eyes.
The foreman was urging him, but he didn’t look much and followed him into the auxiliary building.
“Ryan Reynolds and Michelle Bryan got together and tried to get it resolved,” Martin said.
The other party vowed that there would be explosive news.
While everyone was busy, he found a few marked cans inside, opened them, took out the miniature camera, and installed it in a hidden location that he had chosen early while setting up the venue.
Seven or eight people unloaded the goods from the car and, after a brief inspection by security personnel, delivered them to the door of the villa.
Bruce added: “The last two options are just preparations and I hope they will not be used.”
The five of them ate, drank, talked about movie topics, and gossiped about the industry.
Bruce said: “Three options are ready.”
A few years ago, the case of Michelle Bryan was settled before it spread, and she only paid a fine of US$35,000.
Bruce replied: “If it is only within Michelle’s scope, I don’t think the resistance will be very big.”
The man lowered his voice: “The stuff is in the can, I marked it.”
When Holding left the villa, he carefully observed and found that there was a business car on the side of the door.
Holding has been waiting for big news since he joined TMZ, so he can stand out from the crowd of competitors.
…
Jody, the current business editor, started out as a female paparazzi on the street. Because she obtained and reported a series of big news, she was not only promoted to editor-in-chief, but also won the Pulitzer Prize.
The waiters in white shirts are already waiting here.
Holding was extremely envious after hearing this. As a man, Martin Davis is his idol in life!
“Jordi specially recommended an ambitious small team.” Bruce said simply: “We did not go to Jodi’s side. We informed this small team through a news informant that the leader of the small team, Holding, was an ambitious man. Young people who have the means will not miss this kind of news clue.”
Martin nodded lightly: “I didn’t think about anything else. If you want to turn me into an addict and take action, you have to pay some price.”
Holding received word from a news source that Ryan Reynolds was preparing some special gifts to entertain three heavyweights in the Fox production department.
TMZ’s rising channel is right there. Only by getting big news can it rise.
Martin asked: “Is there going to be a problem with TMZ?”
It was quiet here, the door of the business car opened, and someone brought three girls into the building.
Ryan Reynolds spent a lot of money to find party favors that satisfied the three Fox executives.
These three people promised Ryan Reynolds on the spot that they would fully promote the establishment of the “Deadpool” movie project.
Ryan Reynolds laughed happily, feeling that it was all worth it.
As for the three girls, no one cares what they think.
Ryan Reynolds achieved his goal, and Fox’s three players enjoyed it.
All this seems to be a matter of course.
Just like the upper class people in America, they never care about the life and death of the leeks below.
Is it a consumable item? There are countless replacements after it dies.
Supplies are coming in all over Latin America and around the world.
The party was over. Ryan Reynolds saw off the distinguished guests first, then came back to briefly discuss with his agent, and then left.
The waiters, led by the foreman, came out of the auxiliary building and entered the villa to clean up the messy scene.
Holding was quick and agile, collecting a few remaining special supplies, and using the cleaning as a cover, he recovered the miniature cameras.
Being busy until early in the morning, it finally ended here and the waiters got off work.
Holding drove into a rented car and drove all the way to the appointed place, where two subordinates were waiting.
He drove the car into the parking lot and waited until he had time to deal with it tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, then got directly into an off-road vehicle.
Barrett, who was driving, asked: “Did you succeed?”
Holding briefly looked at the camera and said, “I captured some of them. Let’s take a closer look at them when we get back.”
Tucker in the co-pilot asked: “Is there really breaking news? Even if they have a group party, it actually doesn’t matter. This is not a big deal in Hollywood, but it will offend us.”
Holding was not confused: “If it’s just an ordinary group party, this matter ends here, and the expenses invested are mine.” But he already had a strong premonition, and shook the camera in his hand: “Clues My intuition told me that something big happened in that villa tonight!”
Barrett speeded up the car and headed straight for the headquarters building: “I hope the higher-ups won’t suppress it or sell the news to the original owner.”
Holding laughed: “No, after confirming the news, I will call the business editor directly. Such explosive news has always been what TMZ pursues.”
Tucker said: “In this regard, TMZ is more likely to choose to expose than any other media.”
With the roar of the motor, the off-road vehicle arrived at the headquarters. The three people got out of the car and ran into the editorial office. Although it was already early in the morning, there were still many offices with lights on at the TMZ headquarters.
Holding ran to his workstation, turned on his computer and connected it to a tiny video camera he had installed in the corner of the hall.
There was nothing useful in front of it. After fast forwarding for a while, he clicked the mouse and changed to normal playback speed.
When Barrett saw the three women being brought into the living room, his eyes widened and he said, “Are these **** crazy?”
Tucker shook his head repeatedly: “These scumbags in Hollywood!”
Cameras captured what happened next, as Ryan Reynolds used the trio as bribes to impress three Fox executives.
The trio also invited Ryan Reynolds to join them in their perverted game.
Holding was not too old and his blood had not yet cooled down. He was so angry that he slammed the table and said, “Even if the editorial department suppresses it, I will let these news be exposed!”
Tucker echoed: “Yes, these scum don’t deserve to live!”
Barrett didn’t say anything. This society is too dirty.
After watching the footage captured by this camera, Holding checked several other cameras one by one, but two of them didn’t capture anything useful.
There is another one that captured a similar picture.
It’s really shocking!
These devices are advanced enough, set at good angles, and the pictures captured are clear enough, and even the sound is recorded clearly.
Holding patted Tucker on the shoulder: “Take some time to sort it out and upload it.”
Tucker didn’t say anything and got busy.
Barrett asked: “Where did these girls go?”
Holding took out his cell phone, looked at it, and said, “The news source left the address.”
When Barrett heard this, he couldn’t help but remind him: “Don’t you think this is too coincidental? Will someone use us as a gun?”
“I know someone is using us as a weapon, although I don’t know who it is, and I can’t find out who it is.” Holding closed his eyes and opened them again: “But this is one of the few opportunities we have. We missed it. Maybe another three years? Or five years, or even a lifetime?”
He smiled, with a bitterness in his smile: “You have been in the industry longer than me, and you know how narrow the channels for advancement are, and how difficult it is for us to cross the class. Tucker, Barrett, you are willing to remain unknown all your life and just be ordinary people. Do front-line reporters earn tens of thousands of dollars a year?”
Tucker said: “I’m not willing to ride a horse. Who doesn’t want to make a lot of money! These **** in the video have no conscience, no morals, no bottom line, contempt for the law, they are all scum! And what about us? Pay attention to professional ethics and abide by the law. , Conscience is still intact…”
He only felt that this society was full of ridicule: “Those scumbags earn high salaries and are big stars, earning at least a million dollars a year! But we good people are suffering from poverty and suffering! Car loans, house loans, medical expenses, insurance Fei, hurry up and crush us!”
Barrett has a deeper understanding of these than they do, because he is already married and has more than one child.
“We are doing good things by exposing these things!” Holding is also strengthening his determination: “While we are pursuing journalistic justice, we can also realize our self-worth. Aren’t these what we have always pursued?”
Barrett said: “Go ahead.”
Tucker edited the video, edited the text title, and started uploading.
Holding took out his mobile phone and called the business editor Jody.
The other party seemed to be still asleep, and the call was quickly connected.
Holding seemed to hear the gasps of men and women, and said: “Boss, I have important work to report to you…”
“Old Bu, please stop.” Jodi’s breathing stopped: “Say.”
Holding described the matter quickly and made up his mind. If Jodi refused to publish it, he would immediately contact his media and publish it on multiple websites at the same time.
But Jodi did not disappoint him. He made sure that the news was OK and said, “Publish it immediately. I will turn on the computer to review it now, so hurry up.”
Holding shook his fist vigorously: “It’s being uploaded.”
On the other side, Jodi hung up the phone, glanced at Bruce in front of him, and said with a smile: “Brother, it’s time for you to show off your strength. You don’t want to see Martin’s plan fail, right?”
“Threatening me?” Bruce was angry. He dared to use Martin as a threat? He launched a 100-meter sprint.
Soon I hit my pelvis and felt pain.
Jody was very satisfied with Bruce’s attitude. After being satisfied, he stretched himself, came to the desk, opened his laptop, and logged into TMZ’s backend management.
Bruce came behind her and asked, “Haven’t you shown up yet?”
Jody said: “Be patient, it won’t be so fast.”
Bruce asked with concern: “Are you sure you won’t be in trouble?”
“Those three hot-blooded reporters will be responsible for any trouble.” Jodi smiled: “I didn’t send the people out, but got the news spontaneously. I just reviewed and approved the news uploaded by my subordinates.”
She remembered another thing: “Yes, one more thing, because it may involve serious crimes, of course I, a Pulitzer Prize winner, have to call the police.”
Bruce nodded.
An information prompt flashed in Jodi’s background management. She quickly clicked on it and saw the newly uploaded video news. She immediately clicked on it and started watching it.
The two of them also had serious expressions.
After Jody read it, he directly mentioned the news to the TMZ homepage and locked it on the front page headlines.
She picked up her cell phone, dialed an FBI official she knew well, and said, “You’d better read the latest headlines from TMZ. Someone is suspected of committing a crime. I will notify you as soon as I find out. TMZ will report it. Public opinion could explode soon.”
The other side replied: “The content is very explosive?”
Jody said: “You’d better see it for yourself.”
There were footsteps from the other side, and not long after, the man said, “I want the complete version of the video! Also, what exactly is going on?”
“I’m not sure either.” Jodi pretended to be confused: “My subordinates got the news. They uploaded and released the news and called me, so I found out.”
The other side said: “I need to know the details. Where are you? Can you go to the TMZ headquarters? Let’s meet at the TMZ headquarters in an hour?”
Jody responded: “Okay.”
Less than an hour later, an FBI team entered TMZ headquarters.
Under Jody’s introduction, they conducted detailed interviews with the three Holdings, and Holding also provided new clues.
But there is one condition: TMZ will be involved in the entire filming process.
These are not problems.
In the early morning of that day, the FBI raided the Santa Monica Marina warehouse, rescued three girls and multiple women, and captured several armed guards.
Subsequently, Ryan Reynolds and three Fox executives were summoned as quickly as possible.
They left too much evidence, and all the evidence points directly to Michelle Bryan.
When the TMZ news broke and the news just spread, TMZ accompanied the FBI into Michelle’s mansion and took control of the woman.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that public opinion in this area cannot be controlled, and Michelle is no longer involved in the simple organizational transaction last time.
As for the fact that she has the privacy of many people, just don’t give her a chance to say it out.
The storm blew up quickly.
