Chapter 137: No Prize Without Public Relations

Beverly Hills, in a multi-million dollar mansion.

Jennifer Aniston packed up her personal belongings, picked up her bag and came to the living room, and said to Lucia: "You wrap the gift box I prepared today."

Lucia Said: "Okay."

Brad Pitt came out of the study, went over to kiss Aniston, and asked: "Honey, do you still want to eat lunch outside?"

"If you want to compete for awards, you have to eat with the judges." Aniston was helpless: "If you don't do public relations, how can you win awards."

Pitt warned: "Don't be too tired, don't force yourself, I'll wait for you to come back to eat Dinner."

Aniston went to the garage, and Pitt watched her car leave the mansion before returning to the house.

As soon as he entered the living room where the Christmas tree was erected, he found that the family's nanny Lucia had changed her clothes and was still wearing a maid outfit.

Perhaps because he worked as a valet for an actor when he was young, Pitt has a special preference for nannies and maids after becoming famous.

Just like Quentin loves feet.

Lucia lowered herself and knelt in front of the Christmas tree decorated by Aniston herself.

Peter walked over quickly.

The two soon acted out the indescribable story of the male master and the maid.

In the middle of the afternoon, Aniston came back from outside with a look of exhaustion on her face. As before, she found nothing unusual.

While Pitt was out, Lucia asked Aniston for leave and wanted to come back after the Christmas vacation.

Aniston granted leave and gave Lucia's child a Christmas gift.

She will also be going out soon, and there is a cocktail party to attend in the evening.

Lucia left the mansion with her bag, drove her Nissan car out of Beverly Hills, found a parking space on the roadside, parked the car, and immediately made a phone call.

Not long after, two cars came here one after another.

The first car looked at one side and the latter car looked at the other side. Only then did Campos make a call and ask Lucia to come over.

Lucia got into his car and returned the bag.

Campos looked at the camera in his bag, paid the balance, and said: "You are leaving tonight."

Lucia's family's life in Los Angeles is not very good: "There is nothing here Worth remembering.”

Campos reminded: “Don’t go back to California.”

Lucia nodded and said: "I want to go..."

"Don't tell me." The Mexican anti-drug policeman who was chased by traffickers always had special care for his compatriots. Campos solemnly warned: "Also Don’t tell anyone.”

When it got dark, Lucia drove back to Olvera Street, picked up her husband and daughter, loaded up her few luggage, and drove out of Los Angeles under the cover of darkness. Got off the highway and headed straight to Arizona.

If you have money and legal status, it will be easier to settle down.

Campos came to the safe house and transferred the camera video to the laptop, and then copied it to several storage disks according to Hawke's instructions.

After a while, Hawke and Edward came over.

The two of them sat in front of the laptop and watched the video secretly filmed by the nanny.

Peter and the ordinary-looking female nanny started having sex under the Christmas tree.

The picture is relatively clear, and various voices can be heard, including Pitt's various dissatisfaction and complaints against Aniston.

Pete vents not only his desires, but also the restrictions that married life places on himself.

Edward praised: "Pete has a really good figure. No wonder the female nanny didn't ask for money before."

Campos asked: "When the video is released, will the faces of non-public figures be coded?"

"Online media may not, but regular TV stations will." After watching the video, Hawke turned off the player and said patiently in the way of training his subordinates: "Videos like this are all in a seller's market, and the TV station may not be able to get them in a year. Once, especially Pete As long as the seller's conditions are not excessive, the buyer will generally agree. Campos once made a similar transaction: "This one is not suitable, can you find another one?"
< br>Hoke said: "Yes, not only can you ask for a higher price, but you can also add other conditions to the copyright agreement. For example, the video must appear on the news and not be removed by public relations, such as facial coding of non-key figures... …”

Campos heard it: "Shall I sell the video?"

"That's right." Hawke transferred all the filming business to Butterfly Company last time: "You go to Channel 11's "Ace News" first Take a look.”

There are hundreds of similar companies or studios in Los Angeles that have provided news for Fox 11 in the past six months alone.

Thousands of people film celebrity gossip and scandals in batches every day.

The risk of engaging in gossip and scandals about business companies or politicians is relatively high.

But scandals involving Hollywood stars or sports stars are relatively safe.

Every year, some cultural and sports stars will reveal their super big melons.

For example, the famous Kobe Gate.

In all of Hawk's past and present lives, he has never heard of a reporter being fired because of a scandal involving a sports star.

He took out a few more contact information and asked Campos to write it down: "In the future, you will complete the business independently."

Campos nodded.

Hoke added: "Fox Channel 11, "Ace News" program, the producer and host actually in charge of the program now is called Megan Taylor, you contact her directly, in the name of Butterfly Company "

Campos said: "I understand."

"The news about Pitt and Aniston can sell for at least 400,000 to 500,000 dollars." Hawke. Quickly said: "Of which 100,000 US dollars will be used as the company's operating capital, 100,000 US dollars will solve the legal identity problems of several of your subordinates, and the rest will be converted into cash, and some will be used as reserve funds. I may let you buy some vehicles or other supplies."

He took out his mobile phone and called Erica: "Do you have any clues about the matter I asked you about last time?"

Edward next to him cooperated tacitly and picked up a pen and paper.

"Yes, please remember it." Erica gave her contact information and reminded: "It is no less than 30,000 US dollars per person. The price is a bit high, but there is no need to worry."

Hoke said: "I won't say thank you to you. I have something to do right now, so I won't talk about it for now."

"Okay." Erica hung up the phone on her own initiative.

Hoke asked Edward to hand over his contact information to Campos and said: "To solve their identity problem, you see the timing."

Campos put it away: "I understand."

Hoke said no more, asked Edward to put away a copy and left here.

Campos took his notebook and storage disk, then went out and drove to the Fox Television Center.

He came to Channel 11 and found that there were many freelance reporters who came to sell news, and people from the program team came in and out.

Because he contacted "Ace News" midway, indicating that there was explosive news about Pete's cheating, Campos received preferential treatment from the program team and entered the reception room alone.

Aisha watched the video once and immediately called Megan.

The latter had already been notified by Hawke, but still pretended not to know, and first negotiated a heavyweight piece of news with a female paparazzi before coming to the reception room.

After watching it, Megan was very satisfied with the intensity of the news and decided to call Hawke to her house to reward him.

The video involves one of the most watched celebrity couples in the United States. It is completely a seller's market. The price of $500,000 and a condition proposed by Campos are not a problem.

The two parties quickly signed a copyright transfer agreement.

Hawke returned to the studio and received a call from Campos, confirming that the video would be broadcast on "Ace News" on time.

He called Sarah Parker: "Channel 11, Ace News."

In the Sherman Oaks mansion, Sarah collapsed in the upstairs master bedroom There was no strength left in his body.

On the bedside table next to him, the bottle of Fengyoujing given by Edward was already empty.

God knows what this woman has been through recently.

Sarah finally cheered up and said, "That's great!"

Hoke was afraid that she would go crazy, so he cut off the phone directly.

Sarah on the other side put on her pajamas, left the bedroom, and shouted to the first floor: "Stephen, where is the happy water you bought? Can you give me a few bottles?"

Stephen came to the lobby on the first floor and asked: "Didn't you get one bottle? Did you use it so quickly? You don't know how to drink with your mouth, right?"

Sarah went downstairs and came back with three bottles.

…………

Every awards season is the busiest time in Los Angeles, and the level of chaos far exceeds the mayoral election.

At a very ordinary cocktail party, a dressed-up Jennifer Aniston was among several media reporters, discussing the latest hot news, including Sarah Parker.

This is Aniston's most important competitor.

While chatting, Aniston suddenly noticed that some people coming in from outside glanced at her from time to time, and even gathered together to whisper.

What's more, several waiters passed by and looked at her with strange eyes. As if watching a joke.

Rumors always spread very quickly, spreading quickly in the banquet hall like a plague.

As a star, Aniston is particularly sensitive to certain feelings.

She felt like she was the center of attention in the banquet hall!

The problem is there are a lot of stars here.

Old friend Courteney Cox came quickly from the other side and took Aniston's arm: "Something happened, you come with me."

Aniston followed Ke Teni goes out.

In the middle, she looked back and found that most of the people in the banquet hall were looking here.

Aniston walked out and asked anxiously: "What happened?"

"I heard people talking about it. Fox 11's "Trump News" aired a video of Pete cheating on your nanny." Courteney didn't see it. She just listened to the person next to her and said, "You'd better ask."

Someone passed by, and strange eyes fell on her again.

Aniston felt uncomfortable all over, so she quickly entered a lounge, took out her mobile phone from her bag, found a number she had saved a long time ago, and dialed it with the intention of giving it a try.

The call was connected over there: "Fox Channel 11, Megan Taylor."

Aniston revealed her name and said: "Meghan, are you going to fuck me? You can't do it before you fuck me. Say hello?”

"Correction, I didn't mess with you, it was Pete who messed with your nanny." Megan, like Fox, had a tough attitude: "Also, before the news is broadcast, you have to greet the person involved, which is not in compliance with the rules of the Fox TV network. ”

Aniston also knows that Fox is not a conservative and stereotyped British guy.

She stopped pestering: "I want a copy of the original video."

Meghan responded: "Send it to me by email or do you come and get it?"

"Send it by email. ." Aniston reported an email address: "Hurry up, I want to see it now."

There are computers for entertainment in the lounge.

Courtney went to turn on the computer. When Aniston hung up the phone, the computer had already started up.

Aniston logged into her email and waited for a while before the video was sent.

Then she opened the video.

Although the woman's face was coded, Aniston recognized it at a glance. It was Lucia.

Peter and Lucia did those things under the Christmas tree she had decorated by herself.

Among them, Pete also said some unpleasant things about her.

Aniston turned off the video, but she wasn't angry or panicked.

Because Lucia was not the first nanny Pete had, she specially replaced her with the ordinary-looking Lucia.

Last time, the two dealt with it privately without revealing any rumors.

This time, not only did Pete do it again, he was also put on the TV screen.

Aniston was completely devastated, and most importantly, it made her embarrassed to the whole world.

Pitt's call came at this time. Aniston cut it off without thinking, and said to Courteney: "Can I stay at your house temporarily tonight?"
< br>Kourtney said: "It just so happened that David was going to shoot outside, and I wanted to find someone to accompany me."

The two of them left the hotel together, and before the reporter could react, they got in the car through the back door, Leave together.

In the car, Aniston had already made a decision. She called her lawyer first: "I want to divorce as quickly as possible. I won't ask that bastard to pay alimony. Everything will be in accordance with the prenuptial agreement."

She He called his agent again: "Tomorrow morning, I will hold a press conference. Announced her divorce from Pitt."

Finally, she called the public relations manager: "Draft a speech for my divorce from Pitt."

After doing this, Aniston sat back. On the chair, the phone fell down, and the whole person seemed to have been drained of strength.

Kourtney asked: "Have you thought about it? Divorce now will involve a lot of energy on your part. If it turns into a divorce battle, it will be even more troublesome. These are not good for your winnings."
< br>

Aniston leaned on her best friend and said only one sentence: "I want a divorce!"

That night, the United States was shocked. The emotional crisis of Hollywood's number one celebrity couple broke all the news.

The next morning, a haggard-looking Aniston appeared at the press conference on time to announce her divorce from Brad Pitt.

Pete was never one to sit still.

Seeing that there was no hope of recovery, he began to use his connections in the media to attack Aniston with carefully crafted soft articles.

For example, Aniston cannot have children and so on.

Although compared to the protracted divorce case of Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman, these two people are relatively straightforward, but they are not willing to give in.

The American public is eating melon.

Aniston was tortured both physically and mentally by the divorce case and the heated public opinion.

Whenever she appears in public, she will attract fifty or sixty entertainment paparazzi, and even some abuse from Pitt's fans.

Taking inspiration from the feminist attack on Bro Derick, some extreme Pitt fans also used biological weapons against Aniston.

Similarly, Rachel's extreme fans also launched a biological attack on Pete.

Unable to go out, work, and live normally, Aniston decided to leave North America temporarily.

Before Christmas, Aniston announced through her agent that she would quit public relations during the awards season, and then she and her friend Courteney took a private jet to temporarily leave North America, a place of right and wrong.

As the Hollywood awards season has developed to this day, there is a commonly recognized rule: at the Golden Globes and Oscars, there are no awards without public relations.

Aniston announced her withdrawal from the awards season, effectively giving up her bid for the Golden Globes.

The day before Christmas, Sarah Parker made an appointment with Hawke and Caroline to meet at the Beverly Business Club.

This woman has won the divorce lawsuit and received most of the marital property.

At the entrance of the club, Hawke looked outside through the glass curtain wall.

Stephen drove Sarah over. Sarah was careful when she got out of the car, covering her protruding belly even as she walked. She used her years of acting skills and temporary training experience to fully interpret a qualified character. Expectant mother.

Caroline notified the reporters who came over and gathered on both sides of the club entrance to take photos.

Mom-to-be Sarah Parker will meet the papers the next day.

Hoke said to Caroline next to him: "Sarah is not looking for us for anything, but she wants to create the character of a pregnant woman."

Caroline said: "These are all It's your idea." She reminded Hawke: "I have a feeling that she is not normal towards you."

Hearing this, Hawke's hair stood up: "Don't make such a joke. , I can’t bear it.”

Caroline was surprised: "You are also scared sometimes?"

"It's not fear, but..." Hawke couldn't think of a suitable adjective for a while, so he could only say: "We are normal people, and they A bunch of perverts, do you understand?"

Caroline blinked: "But I think you are perverted. "

Hoke snorted: "What did you say? Do you need to think about it again? "

"Am I right? Who gives people that nickname? ?" Caroline still wanted to jump a few times: "Who in the right mind would force a fashionable, beautiful and elegant lady like me to imitate the sound of a sheep? "

Hawk stared at her and smiled.

Caroline suddenly realized that she hadn’t received all of her commission yet. Her face immediately changed, her eyes narrowed with laughter, and she opened her mouth: “Hey——”
< br>Sarah entered the main entrance of the club.

Hoke turned and walked towards the reception room.

The group of people entered the reception room.

Sarah couldn't suppress her excitement: "Are we going to win?"

Hoke reminded: "The award ceremony will be held in more than half a month, so don't mention winning yet, let alone celebrate in advance."< br>
Caroline experienced the Johnson incident and said: "Sarah, you'd better listen to Hawke."

The biggest competitor was forced to withdraw voluntarily by Hawke and even left North America. Sarah now obeyed Hawke's words: "Okay, don't mention winning, don't celebrate in advance, and continue with public relations."

She looked at Hawke Gram and Caroline: "When I win the Best Actress, I will have a big party to celebrate."

Agent Sophia also rushed over at this time.

She, Caroline and Sarah are going to discuss normal public relations matters.

Stephen asked Hawke to talk outside: "I purchased a batch of essential oil and high-concentration chili pepper water, and found a few people to help. They will soon be sent to the prison where Bro is serving his sentence. "

Hoke nodded: "I believe Bro will thank us"
