Chapter 162 Mr. and Mrs. Smith
Ocean Park Avenue, Twitter’s office building.
In less than ten minutes, Hawke received calls from Susie and Steve Nutt respectively, all of which were related to Will Smith.
Caroline sighed with emotion: "Full Speed PR Company's network of contacts is incomparable to CAA." She looked at Hawke: "How long did it take for CAA to find your friend? and acquaintances."
Hoke said: "After all, it is the number one agency in Hollywood."
Frank stretched, yawned, and asked Hawke: "What did you think about it?"
"We didn't plan to publish it tonight." The video in Hawke's hand, even if it was The publication will have to wait until tomorrow after officially starting work at the earliest.
He said: "I asked them to convey that it will not be published tonight. As for other things, I now have a new idea."
Caroline cooperates with Hawke Several times, when Hawke was around, her brain was too lazy to think: "What the hell?" "
Hoke simply said: "We have Will Smith's video and Jada Smith's video. How about forming a special husband and wife team? Interested.”
Frank answered: "Text messages are free advertising?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Hawke's cell phone rang, and a strange call came in.
Hawk connected.
On the other side is Will Smith's agent James Rock, who wants to ask Hawke for an interview.
Hoke chatted with him on the phone for a while and asked them to come directly to Twitter.
He hung up the phone and asked Frank: "What's going on with CAA's James Rock?"
Frank automatically switched to forcing the king: "In my glorious era, they were still assistants in the mailroom."
“I have been in contact with him.” Caroline added: “One of the senior partners of CAA, together with Brian Lord and the manager Chad Lovett and others are similar, he is a very rational guy."
She thought for a while and added: "For CAA to be what it is today, the rationality of high-level agents can overwhelm the stars. Taking it off is also a reason."
Hoke nodded slightly and said, "Let the security personnel be prepared in case of any eventuality."
Frank was not loyal: "I'm going back to sleep."
Edward took out a pistol and slapped it on the conference table in front of Frank: "Take it."
"No, I'll accompany you. Waiting for you." Frank went to the coffee machine to get the coffee.
Caroline touched the top of her head and clicked two small fangs. She felt that these were not enough and said to Hawke: "I will also take the gun license test later."
Hoke looked at her thin arms and legs, took out a bottle of anti-wolf spray from his briefcase, and threw it over.
Edward went out and went downstairs to find the security guards.
The security of the Twitter company comes from the Ferguson family's security company, and Erica personally selected the capable personnel.
Everyone has a concealed carry permit.
The security guards opened the gun cabinet and took out the guns.
There were even two people who climbed to the top of the building and set up their spears.
If someone really attacks here, the Western Branch will be here in less than ten minutes.
As the high-tech Silicon Beach that is the focus of development in Los Angeles, police patrols here are also relatively intensive.
Hoke is not the only one who is cautious.
The same goes for Will Smith and James Rock.
When getting into the car, Pilar put away the revolver on the armrest box.
James Locke and Maha Darkhir saw it all.
The car started and the two exchanged glances. Maha said specifically: "I asked Susie carefully. Erica Ferguson was attacked in the Silver Lake community some time ago. There was another gunman who was not announced in the video. , Erica’s boyfriend Hawk Osment, who killed 13 gunmen by himself, all of whom were professionally trained Mexican police officers.”
James. Smith was worried that black people would easily get into trouble, so he patted the driver's seat and said emphatically to Bilal: "If we mess around, we will die miserably."
Will Smith was helpless: "I never thought about it. If you use a gun, any problem that money can solve is not a problem.”
The car came to Ocean Park Avenue, and from a distance, he saw the little blue bird on the roof and the words Twitter. Pilar turned the car. Opened over.
James got out of the car first, glanced at Pilar, and reminded: "You stay in the car."
Bilal shrugged and said nothing.
When Will and Maha got out of the car, the three of them walked towards the office building together.
Three people came out of the door to greet him, two of them were strong, wearing security uniforms, and had pistols at their waists.
The other black man is a bit handsome. He is wearing a handmade business suit and looks a bit intimidating.
Edward recognized Will Smith and made a greeting gesture: "Hoke is waiting for you upstairs."
The group entered the main entrance, took the elevator upstairs, and entered a conference room.
There were three people in the conference room. James found this combination a bit strange, a young man and woman, plus a sloppy old man.
The woman wears big-name brands from head to toe, like a display stand for luxury goods.
The man has an ordinary appearance and a gentle temperament.
Both parties briefly introduced themselves and each sat on one side of the conference table.
James said directly to Hawke: "We communicated on the phone before. Did you purchase a video about Will from a freelance reporter?"
Hoke had it The new plan, therefore said: "Twitter has just been established. During this period, it has been buying entertainment news at high prices. I received dozens of them. I just learned about it tonight. , purchased Will’s video at a high price, and then I asked someone to count the rest of the news received, and there were two items related to Will.”
Will Smith couldn’t help but said: “What. "Two more?"
Hoke gestured to Caroline, who turned on the projector, dragged the laptop mouse, and clicked on the video to play.
The video that was broadcast was not about a man, but a man and a woman. The man was Will Smith and the woman was Bridget Moyna.
Will Smith remembered it as soon as he saw it. This happened when he was at Warner Studios more than a week ago.
James held Will's hand down and motioned him to stop talking.
Hoke reminded: "The next one is related to Mrs. Smith, do you want to play it?"
Will gritted his teeth: "Play it."
Caroline changed to the next video, which showed a man and a woman in a yard. The woman was Jada Smith and the man was rapper Nate Dogg.
Not everyone is like Bro Derek, who likes to watch other people fuck their wives. Will immediately shouted: "Turn it off!"
Hawk nodded at Caroline. Head down.
Caroline turned off the video.
Will's dark forehead was covered with sweat, and he felt his blood vessels pulsing. He looked at Hawke: "You messed with me on purpose!"
"I have no grievances with you, why do I want to mess with you?" Hawke told the truth. The two of them really have no grievances: "I am an online media company. It has just been established. I need hot news. If someone sells it to me, I will naturally want it. Collect.”
There is no such coincidence in the world.
Don’t talk about Will Smith, Hawke doesn’t believe what he says.
But Will Smith knew it after it was broadcast, and it’s not much different from what he knows now.
Will confirmed: "You're messing with me!"
At this time, the mutton leg boy rushed out, flashed his sharp horns, and bared two small fangs: "If you and your wife don't do this, they won't be photographed by the paparazzi. If the paparazzi can't photograph it, they won't sell it to us."
She smiled quickly , the fangs were reflecting the light, like a female devil: "You should look for more reasons from yourself!"
Will also wanted to say, James held him down and said: "It has happened, we with problem solving "Come with sincerity."
Maha said specifically: "Susie and I have known each other for many years, and Mr. Richard Lovett, the CEO of CAA, has been friends with Mrs. Mary Ferguson for many years and has had business relationships."
After a little pressure, James used the best way to express his sincerity: "No matter how much you paid for these videos, Will bought them back for $5 million. We owe your company a favor. ”
Maha's words followed in time: "Will and Jada have two children. These news will cause great harm to them. We can't let the children be harmed, right?" At this moment, Hawke felt that he had become a big man who forced a girl into prostitution. Villain.
Since he has become a villain, he has the consciousness of a villain: "Three of you, you have taken a very correct stance and put me and my company on the opposite side of morality and reason. Go up."
Hoke raised his hand to stop James from talking: "Will and Du. You know better than us what the consequences will be if Ann Martin's video is broadcast. Hollywood's mainstream commercial productions will not let a gay man be the leading actor."
Will stared at Hawke: "You must. Want to publish it? Want to ruin my career as an actor?"
"On the contrary, Twitter wants to cooperate with you and sincerely cooperate." Hawke said calmly: "After James called me, I combined his words with these three videos, and suddenly thought of a program idea that can The kind that shocked the world."
James asked: "What idea?"
< br>Hoke looked at Will: "Have you and Jada reached an open marriage agreement a long time ago?"
The other party even got the video, and Will denied that it made no sense, and casually replied: "Yes, it's been a few years."
Hoke asked: "The past has not been photographed?"
Maha seized the opportunity and put pressure: "There have been, including many front-line media, but they were all settled by us."
Hoke nodded slightly: "In this case, there will definitely be rumors about your couple inside and outside the industry. Quite a bit.”
Will Smith didn’t say anything. In fact, since their marriage, various cheating rumors surrounding their couple have not stopped.
If it was just cheating, he wouldn't be so anxious.
"How about this, let's collaborate on a show." Hawke is a real bastard. He made Will's video and wanted the other party to cooperate: "Will, you and Jada come to Twitter together. As guests above, we will host a red table talk show via live webcast, where you and Jada will open up and discuss your relationship one-on-one.”
There are many gay celebrities exposed, but it is extremely rare for celebrities to discuss open relationships between couples on the show.
The sensational effect could be better.
Hawk is just trying. Will Smith disagrees and does not delay the original plan.
Will refused without even thinking: "Impossible!"
Hoke said: "Cheating has never been a big deal in Hollywood, and open relationships between husband and wife are also very common in Hollywood. , I heard that Bruce Willis and Demi Moore are, and it was semi-public..."
Will scratched his neck and said: "I refuse."
"Understood." Hawke looked at James Locke: "Let's stop here."
James said: "Let's Come with utmost sincerity
Hoke said: "I invite you to cooperate with sincerity. "
James understood what he meant: "If Will rejects your invitation, will you expose the video between him and Duane? ”
"Twitter is a formal social media with a sense of social responsibility." The other party was able to sing high-profile before, and Hawke will also do the same: "The public has been led and deceived, and we have the responsibility and obligation to tell them the truth. This is also the existence of press freedom. Meaning."
Will said angrily: "Humble. Despicable! Shameless!"
Caroline rushed out again: "Haha, tell the public your true colors, is it despicable and shameless? You are blatantly deceiving the whole society and creating a false model couple. What? "
Will was speechless for a moment.
Caroline raised her chin: "The media has the obligation to supervise society and public figures. This is the power given to us by the Press Act!"
Edward quietly gave Caroline a thumbs up.
Hei Xiaoshuai then remembered that Caroline was not a docile little goat. When they first met, this woman had a sharp mouth and was sarcastic all day long.
Maha then asked Hawke: "Discuss the relationship between husband and wife one-on-one, including infidelity and open marriage?"
Hoke said: "This is the main content."
The two agents, James and Maha, are far more rational than Will and are easier to observe from a third party's perspective.
The former said: "This matter not only involves Will, but also involves Jada. We cannot make a decision unilaterally."
Hoke pondered for a while: "I can wait for you until eight o'clock tomorrow morning. "
James knew that if the other party wanted to publish it, he could publish it at any time. There was no need to say so much. He nodded and said: "See you tomorrow."
Maha gave Will Smith a sign. With his eyes, Will followed her and James and left together.
Hoke took out his cell phone and called Erica: "I shouldn't be able to go back tonight. Something happened here. You should go home immediately."
Erica didn't have any nonsense: "I'll leave now." She turned to ask: "Is it serious?"
Hoke smiled: "I can solve it."
Hang After cutting off the phone, he looked at Edward: "Inform everyone in the security department to come back to work and pay triple the overtime pay."
Edward took out his mobile phone and made a call.
Hoke warned: "Don't leave the company before noon tomorrow."
Downstairs, Pilar started the car.
Just as Will was about to speak, James' cell phone rang.
He answered the phone and received a call from CAA CEO Richard Lovett: "As for Will, I just contacted Mary Ferguson. She said that Pacific Investment Group is only responsible for investment and does not interfere with the company. Normal operations.”
James had a headache.
Hang up the phone, he looked at Will: "In the end, you have to make the decision on this matter."
Will's dark face showed no expression: "My mind is a little confused, please help me analyze it."
"The current situation is clear." Richard's call also cut off James's last fantasy: "Time is very tight. It is best not to use private methods. Even if we want to use force, we may not be their opponents."
Maha glanced at the building behind him: "This is the Silicon Valley that is vigorously developing in Los Angeles. Tan Science and Technology Park, attack here directly, wait Ours will be the entire SWAT and FBI."
James did not consider this: "Hawker Osment only gave us two choices. If we don't cooperate, he will release the video of you and Duane. Your career will plummet. A-list productions will no longer use you, and even other productions will not consider you for all heterosexual roles. You will only be able to play supporting roles in the future."
Hollywood's A-list stars. , no one is gay, especially gay.
James continued: "If you cooperate, your career will not be greatly affected. Cheating is never a problem in Hollywood, and open marriage is nothing. You and Jada will suffer some criticism, but this can also bring The topic has been hot for a long time.”
Maha originally wanted to talk about children, but thought of some things she had heard and finally endured it.
This couple doesn’t care. What is she, an agent, doing considering this?
Will is a star with a brain, how should he choose in the current situation?
Fight until both sides suffer? Your career is over, and Twitter shuts down after posting the video?
The other party can completely change its appearance and open another website.
But he will be abandoned by mainstream audiences.
Hollywood is courting another black star, Denzel Washington, and he is not irreplaceable.
Several people did not return to CAA, Will Smith called Jada, and Bilal drove to the Dream Castle in Calabasas.
Compared to Will, Jada Smith is much more decisive.
She thought of Alison Firth from the selfie scandal, but felt that this was an opportunity to expand her popularity and influence!
Jada wants to be an independent, free woman, not a dependency of Will Smith.
To achieve this goal, Jada must have her own career.
She wants the benefits of Mrs. Smith, and she also wants her personal career.
Hollywood has always been at the forefront of the times. This good wife of the new era certainly wants both.
The Smiths came to an agreement.
Without waiting until the next day, James called Hawke on behalf of the Smiths.
The next morning, James and Maha accompanied them to Twitter to determine a series of follow-up matters.
After receiving a call last night, Hawke dictated the framework of the plan and asked Caroline to work all night to write a detailed plan.
The two sides discussed for a whole morning and signed a formal cooperation agreement.
As the saying goes, if you can't resist, it's better to lie down and enjoy it.
Celebrities are never afraid of hot topics.
