It was obviously something that happened a few hours ago, but it was actually reported. This speed is simply amazing.
Although Kai was surprised by the speed of tabloids, he didn't care too much. After all, the speed of this world is beyond imagination. Even if the news is hot, as long as there is no follow-up, it will be naturally forgotten in a few days. This kind of scandal,
If there aren't over 180 incidents happening every day in Los Angeles, it would be a shame for Los Angeles to be known as the City of Angels.
The key is that this efficiency is really terrifying. If the police had such efficiency, it is estimated that the crime rate in Los Angeles could drop by ten percentage points.
"Boss, is this true?"
Chloe still looked gossipy.
"False." Kai said without mercy. "Go out to do some work! The police department doesn't pay you to gossip during working hours!"
Chloe stared hard at Kai's face, and finally gave up helplessly. She couldn't see anything from Kai's face.
After Chloe left, Kai's phone rang, and it was Stuart. This old guy also saw the newspaper. As his old comrade actually gossiped with a top actress, he naturally wanted to confirm it, if it was true.
, then he has something to brag about.
"When did you become such a gossip?"
"Who doesn't love gossip?" Typical Angeleno comment.
"It's nothing, I just helped the female star handle some personal matters, it's considered private work." Kai said helplessly.
After saying this, Stewart understood. This is Hollywood. How can stars not do some dirty things under the glamor? This kind of thing is very common in Los Angeles, and it has even given rise to a very unique profession of "professional scavenger".
This kind of person is a professional player who specializes in handling the private affairs of celebrities and big names, but their reputation is often not very good. They are paid to do things, do things by unscrupulous means, and are semi-black and white. Even Stewart, who has a long-term
People who are mixed among all kinds of dragons and snakes are not willing to come into contact with these people. They have no moral integrity and will do things if they are paid.
In short, the Hollywood film and television industry has also spawned many strange and eccentric professions.
"By the way... I have something to ask you."
"What's wrong?"
"Do you remember Brian?"
"Is he in trouble?" Kai sat up straight. If it was really him, the trouble would definitely not be small, because this tough guy could solve ordinary troubles by himself. There was no need for Stuart to ask him for help.
"He didn't get into trouble, but his daughter, Kim, got into trouble."
"His daughter? What trouble could a barely grown child be in?"
Stewart reluctantly told Kai what happened.
Brian's daughter Jin has always wanted to enter the entertainment industry. She got the opportunity to go to Psylocke Entertainment before, but... what can I say about this girl? Everything is fine, but nothing stands out. Indeed, Jin is considered
Beautiful. But the problem is that the most indispensable thing in Hollywood is beautiful women. It is difficult to gain favor based on appearance alone, unless she is so beautiful that people cannot forget her at a glance. Obviously Jin does not have this capital.
For Kai's sake, Isabella also thought of giving her a chance to sit up from the bottom.
But young people are impatient, especially today's young people. Their motivations for wanting to be stars are usually purely vanity.
People with vanity often care about the benefits after becoming famous. As for the suffering and hardship they suffered before, they don't want to be tainted at all. Therefore, many young people who enter the entertainment industry with so-called dreams want to join the industry today and become famous tomorrow.
, win an Oscar the day after tomorrow, and become a superstar the day after tomorrow. How can you honestly start from the bottom?
Especially Jin, she has not been taught by her father since she was a child. Although her mother has tried her best to teach her, parents play an extremely important role in the growth of a child. The lack of father's love will always cause some shortcomings. What's more, due to the lack of father's care since she was a child,
Out of a desire to make amends, Jin's mother naturally treated her children twice as well, even to the point of doting on her. Later, her mother remarried and met a diamond prince, with extremely superior material conditions.
In this case, it is very rare that the gold does not grow crookedly, and it is normal to have a little princess disease.
Therefore, Jin was very disappointed with the career plan given by Lingdie Entertainment. He would first join the company as an intern, and then take on some indispensable small roles to gain experience, and then... the sky would be up to him. There is no company in Hollywood that can achieve 100% success.
I guarantee that I will be able to make the stars under my command popular. After all, stars are never a necessity. It all depends on whether the public accepts them or not.
But the problem is that Jin doesn't see it that way. She feels that Lingdie Entertainment doesn't take her seriously.
She didn't even think about it. She was a high school graduate with nothing. Why should others value her? Just because she had a good father and a rich stepfather? Don't be ridiculous. Unless her two fathers gave money to the company for some reason.
, spend a lot of resources, there is still a slight possibility.
But the problem is, one of his fathers is a poor guy, and he knows a lot of people, but they are all secret agents, and they have no connection with Hollywood. The other father is rich and powerful, but the problem is that he is not
Dear dad, if you spend a few million to succeed, I wouldn't be reluctant to give it up, but the problem is that with such qualifications, a few million is obviously not enough, but tens of millions is slightly possible... But tens of millions is for my stepdaughter.
Create an opportunity...Which stepfather is so good, give me a stack!
In short, Jin, who is young, energetic, and arrogant, didn't sign a contract if he didn't understand anyone.
Lingdie Entertainment didn't care either. This is nonsense. There are good prospects everywhere. Who would care about a character with little potential? Jin is not the protagonist. There is no drama about pretending to be a slap in the face and not bullying a poor young man.
Being rejected by Lingdie (she believed that Lingdie Entertainment was not optimistic about the rejection), Jin was also shocked. Then without anyone knowing, she signed a contract with a company inexplicably because someone else offered her a role as a heroine.
Opportunity.
Although it is a small production.
Even if Jin has confidence in herself and considers herself to be a natural beauty and a potential superstar, she also knows some common sense. It is impossible for an amateur like her who has no background to have a big production and a big cast to escort her as soon as she debuts. You must know that not everyone
Everyone is Miss Jingtian.
So she set a small goal for herself, to shine in a small-cost production and sound the first clarion call for Miss Kim to dominate Hollywood.
So I was deceived.
As a result, when it was time to report to the crew, she was stunned.
Because the filming location was in the San Fernando Valley!
The San Fernando Valley is an urbanized valley in southern California, USA. It is located 30 kilometers northwest of Los Angeles. The San Fernando Valley covers an area of 895 square kilometers. It is considered an inconspicuous small city. But in fact, this place is very famous.
, especially for the American people.
Because the San Fernando Valley is known as "Hollywood where two people can act", there are more than 300 adult film production companies located here. If you often watch European and American movies, you will find that the backgrounds of many movies are always
The sun was shining brightly and the temperature was a bit high... Well, it was most likely taken in the San Fernando Valley.
Jin is indeed the protagonist, but this protagonist is different from what she imagined.
When I signed the contract before, I did say that the protagonist would have to make some sacrifices...but this sacrifice was too big.
Jin naturally refused.
But if someone else holds the contract, it doesn't matter whether you agree or not.
The key is that Jin is already eighteen years old and has the legal ability to take responsibility. There is no way he can default on his debts.
Of course, you can also break the contract directly and just pay.
But this silly girl was fascinated by the heroine from the beginning of her freshman year. Not only did she not pay attention to the content of the contract, she didn't even read the liquidated damages clearly. It was an eight-digit liquidated damages! It's really cruel.
At first glance, it was obvious that he had been deceived.
In Hollywood, this kind of thing is not uncommon. People are deceived every year. Some can only go to sea, and some can only lose money. In their line of work, they have already developed a very professional process, and it is not necessary to litigate.
lose.
Very troublesome.
"What do you want me to do?" Kai asked directly as it was hard to ignore such nonsense.
"Aren't you a police officer? See if you can scare the other party and make them stop." Stewart didn't have a good way to deal with this kind of thing. After all, others are just in this business. Professionals have many ways to deal with various situations.
.
"Let me think of a solution."
Kai didn't say die. After all, this kind of thing is too common in Hollywood. This can also be regarded as one of the survival strategies of Hollywood's bottom companies. Not to mention an amateur like Jin, even many famous stars will be cheated. Otherwise,
Why do brokerage companies appear?
The solution Kai came up with was actually very simple. He came directly to the door and asked for an eight-digit liquidated damages! This company really dared to open his mouth. It was clear that it was treating money as a fat sheep. But this appetite was too big. Kai would try it and see if he could.
Prosecute them with fraud charges. Litigation is the last option. Let's see if we can resolve it privately and settle the matter with hundreds of thousands. Anyway, Jin's stepfather probably won't care too much about hundreds of thousands.
In this way, Kai served as the mascot in the office all morning. Everyone who passed by his office would look at him secretly, as if they could tell some gossip, and that was enough.
After finally making it to lunch time, Kai was just about to go out for dinner when he got a call and was taken to the director's office.
When he got there, he happened to see Salize coming out of the director's office.
"Thank you very much, Ms. Theron, for your support of the security of Los Angeles." The director shook hands with Shalizi very politely at the door of the office and said goodbye. Looking at his rosy face, it seemed that Shalizi had given him a lot of benefits.
Seeing Kai coming, Dustin immediately waved Kai over.
"Miss Sharize Theron just donated two million dollars to the police force. This is the greatest support for the police. I hope you can greet Miss Theron well."
This was said as if a young lady was coming to welcome guests.
But in fact, in a certain sense, this statement is true.
I have talked about the funding source of the American police before, so I won’t repeat it here. Faced with such a large donation of millions, the police department cannot offend. After all, this concerns all the police officers in the entire police department, and the funds are sufficient.
Then the welfare of the police will be better, they will have better equipment, better infrastructure, and more funds for handling cases. In short, whether the police will live a good life or a small life depends on these donors.
Los Angeles is better than other cities in this regard, with more celebrities! In order to maintain a good image in front of the public, many celebrities will do charity, and donating money to the police is also a very good way. After all, donating to the police can improve their own image.
It shows that you have a sense of social responsibility. Secondly, you can also build a good relationship with the police.
The police in a capitalist society also have very capitalist characteristics. Services are worth every penny and the police will do their best for these donors.
Although those celebrities do not necessarily need the police, what if they do?
Kai looked at Shalizi strangely and didn't say anything. Did he want to show that he was too powerful and unyielding, and that he was too rich to be lascivious? Making a fuss over Shalizi's money offensive? Isn't that sick?
Shalizi didn't pay attention to Kai, but said some high-sounding words to Dustin very politely. It was obvious that this woman was very good at talking in this kind of situation. It was obviously some clichés, but others said it like a spring breeze, which made people feel uncomfortable.
It feels sincere and not so formulaic and hypocritical.
After the two people finally ended their conversation, knowing that the other party was talking empty words, Kai sent Salize back on behalf of the police.
"What? Are you surprised to see me?"
After getting in the car, Shalizi took the initiative to talk to Kai.
"A bit, I thought you would need some time to calm down, after all..."
"You mean that regarding the existence of ghosts, and my father... I am not as fragile as you think, and my ability to accept is not as bad as you think."
To be honest, if there is any supernatural being in this world that is most accepted by people, ghosts undoubtedly rank first. Because people will more or less think about the topic of death, and they also have their own opinions on whether the soul exists.
On the contrary, many people cannot accept the argument that people disappear completely after they die. After all, no one wants to disappear completely.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! With these words, the car fell into silence again.
Kai always felt a little guilty, because in a sense, he had 'killed' her father, even though her father was already dead.
After a while.
Shalizi said: "I owe you a favor."
"Didn't you donate?" Kai said with a smile.
"That's different." Shalizi said seriously.
Hearing what Shalizi said, Kai suddenly remembered Jin's bad incident.
"In that case, I really have something to ask you for help with." Then he told the story of Jin being deceived.
When Shalizi listened to Kai's story, she didn't actually feel the kind of relief that could repay the favor. Instead, she felt an indescribable irritation. She could feel that Kai didn't seem to be willing to have more contact with her. If it was someone else,
There is no way a person could use such a favor so easily.
With this favor, wouldn't they have more reason to continue their relationship? This has nothing to do with the relationship between a man and a woman, it just feels like Kai is a little distant from her.
This made Shalizi feel a little frustrated. She couldn't be so hated.
"I know, I will let people understand this matter."
Shalizi's tone was a little distant, but Kai didn't care. They had only been together for one day, and there were already rumors of a scandal. If they continued to get along in the future, who knows what would happen. Kai had no interest in being discussed by the public as a matter of fun. That would not be in line with Kai.
personality.
Moreover, Shalizi's attitude in handling things was also very reassuring to Kai. She didn't just take care of everything when she came up, but went to understand, which showed that others promised to take her seriously.
After everything was said, Kai didn't know what to say.
say what?
The two of them had known each other for just one day, and they even killed her father... Do you want to talk about how to kill her father?
Then the car became quiet again.
When two people are alone, it can be an awkward situation if they have nothing to say.
Just when Kai was thinking about saying something.
Salize's phone rang.
It's Salize's psychiatrist, and today is the day she sees her psychiatrist.
