Chapter 25 Nip the scandal in the cradle
At Full Speed PR Company, the lights are still bright in the office.
Carolyn Jones, with red lips and long straight blonde hair, hung up the phone, pressed the intercom, and said: "Sasha, Amanda, come in."
Compared appearance and figure between the two Caroline entered the office looking a lot like a woman.
Caroline said without any nonsense: "Ten minutes ago, the poisonous Donnie and the idiot Sarah had an affair in a hotel and were photographed. The boss pressured the matter to our side."
Sasha was curious and asked Amanda: "Have these two dated before?"
Amanda said: "Yes."
The time was still short, and Caroline ordered: "Sasha Sasha, call the major freelance journalist studios and active paparazzi to ask who did this."
Sasha went to call immediately.
Caroline continued: "Amanda, contact the major gossip media. If they receive relevant news or photos, ask them to suppress it temporarily."
She thought about it briefly: "According to what Downey said, the camera used by the other party to take pictures will definitely give priority to print media when selling it. This is a very explosive news and is worth a lot of money. Most tabloids cannot afford high prices. The focus is on "American Weekly" ” “The National Enquirer” and “Hollywood Life” "On top of the three companies."
Amanda said: "I'll call these three companies first."
Caroline clapped her hands: "Now get busy and call these two idiots." Wipe your ass!”
Two assistants were busy making phone calls.
Caroline opened her cosmetic bag, touched up her eyebrows and applied lip gloss.
Soon, Amanda said loudly: "There is news..."
Caroline immediately picked up her bag and walked out on high heels: "Talking as we walk."
…………
Melrose Place, McDonald’s restaurant.
Hoke arrived at the location mentioned by the other party on time. James, the receiving editor from "American Weekly", was already waiting here.
The two introduced themselves, and James asked directly: "I haven't seen you before, are you new to the industry? What important news are you talking about?"
Hoke clicked on the picture to automatically switch, and turned the notebook over: " It was just taken half an hour ago."
James recognized it after just one glance: "It's very exciting." He asked, "Is the source legitimate?" r>
Hoke said: "I will shoot it legally."
"Ok." James was thinking about making an offer. His phone rang. After he answered the call, he went to a quiet place to say a few words. When he came back, Said: "Mr. Osmond, the value of this news is too great and exceeds my bidding range. Please wait a moment and the editorial department will estimate it as soon as possible."
"American Weekly" was not the only choice. Hawke looked at the time and said, "I'll wait five minutes."
Three women came in from the entrance on the shopping mall side of the restaurant.
Amanda gestured with her eyes and whispered: "James from "American Weekly" should be them."
Sasha pretended to order food and passed by quickly, His eyes drifted past the notebook and camera bag inadvertently, and he soon came back with burgers and fries.
She said: "Young and new-looking, I think he is a newcomer. He brought a notebook and photographic equipment bag with him."
"Very good! I'll go talk to him and see what he wants." Caroline lowered her voice: "If the negotiation fails, I will give you a signal and carry out targeted strikes..."
Sasha And Amanda nodded.
Caroline walked quickly towards Hawke.
Hearing the sound of high heels landing quickly, Hawke turned his head and glanced. Basically, he would pay a little attention to anyone passing by here. Rich and powerful people never follow the rules.
Rules are used to restrain ordinary people.
A woman with slender figure, curvaceous hair, blond hair and exquisite makeup walked quickly on red high heels.
Caroline knew James and said, "I'll chat with him for a few words."
The relationship between public relations and the media is not confrontational, but more cooperative. James said: "Ten minutes. ”
He left here directly and went to the side.
Hawke closed his notebook.
Caroline looked at Hawke slightly: "No watch, no accessories, no perfume, clothes of medium and low-end brands, silly hairstyle, skin color common for outdoor work, your financial situation is worrying "
She was full of confidence: "Listen carefully to what I say, which will help you get out of the dilemma."
At this moment, an elegant lady sat opposite Hawke.
The lady was still a little proud. Caroline’s handbag was placed on the table, and her slender wrist exposed her watch: “I worked in a job similar to yours, and I was even worse off than you at that time. Now, What? I use Hermès bags, Cartier women’s watches, Chanel women’s clothing and perfume..."
Hawke asked directly: "Are you a publicist?"
"A freelance journalist turned publicist." Caroline smiled quickly and introduced herself: "Caroline Jones, from Full Speed Public Relations Company, Excuse me?"
Hawke nodded: "Hawke Osmond"
Caroline spoke faster: "Oh, Hawke, I am. Can I call you that? Thank you. My employer is a generous woman with extensive connections in Hollywood and the media industry who is willing to provide help to friends, such as job opportunities with stable income."
See her. Hawke said nothing: "Of course, I can't let you suffer tonight in vain. Do you want to exchange it for some money?"
Normally, people would ask how much the next sentence was, and then she would use her words to lead her into a trap and turn her into a suspect of blackmail.
Hoke glanced at the Hermès handbag, and Caroline took the opportunity to put it on the table. It was so close. What was in it?
He did not follow the opponent's rhythm at all and was upright: "Although I am just a freelance reporter, I have always been strict with myself. Every news photo I take must be true and responsible to society. The public has the right to know!”
Card Lorraine still wants to get people into the rhythm: "You like doing news, good! My employer and I can help you introduce a job as a media reporter, such as "Newsweek" where James works."
She made a gesture of counting the banknotes: "How much?"
Hawke's face became extremely serious: "Not only have you belittled my professional ethics, but you have also insulted my personality!"
Caroline remained calm on the surface, but she was madly complaining in her heart: Is this idiot smart or sick? extremely?
She glanced at Hawke, and he didn't look very smart at all.
Hoke said: "There is no need for us to continue talking."
The best public relations method is, of course, to nip the scandal in the cradle. Caroline patted the Hermès bag, Said: "For $5,000, give me all the photos."
Hawke went back to get his notebook.
Caroline suddenly laughed, her smile was particularly bright, but her words were harsh: "Looking at the accent, you are a country bumpkin from Wyoming? A silly boy who herded sheep in the alpine pastures, came to Los Angeles to work hard. , don’t be naive if you think you can realize your dream.”
She took back the Hermès bag, tapped her fingers on the table, and gave the order: “I will find out who you are and what you have done. If you have done anything shameful, even if you haven't, and your family, believe me, I will dig them out, expose them in the media, and make you socially dead."
"You can do whatever you want. Do it." Hawke also laughed: "Because I will do the same thing, please believe me, you have done ten times more shady things than everyone I know combined."
< br>Caroline looked startled.
On the other side, Sasha and Amanda received instructions and acted quickly.
