Chapter 173 Very Silly and Naive
After two days of shooting and three days of post-production, the first episode of "Walking with Paris" was successfully completed.
Meanwhile, attorneys for Rooney Chasen and Hilton in Los Angeles jointly announced that Paris Hilton is suing Rick Solomon for violating her privacy rights.
Then according to what Hawke said, he was the first to start a war of words in the media. The two sides went back and forth, and it was very lively for a while.
Rick Solomon accepted a TV interview and said: "The filming was strongly requested by Paris. I didn't agree at the time and she threatened to break up!"
Hawke asked Paris to fight back, mainly silly and sweet.
Paris responded via Twitter: "I was forced. He told me at that time that if I didn't let him shoot, he would call another woman. I didn't want to lose love."
She also borrowed a line from Shakespeare: "I was too young, stupid and naive..."
The silly and sweet persona suddenly stood out in front of the public.
These videos and news, which had become somewhat cold, have regained their popularity.
After filming the first episode of the show, Paris, according to Hawke, continued her previous dissolute life and had a nightclub night with Britney.
When leaving the nightclub, Paris, who was drunk, faced the paparazzi and boldly lifted up her skirt to show everyone.
Nicole Kidman once shocked the Venice Film Festival by pulling up her skirt.
Now Paris Hilton is making waves on the Sunset Strip.
Under Hawke's control, the heat increased again.
Only with popularity can it have a selling point.
Hawke immediately reached out to Natasha, who was introduced to Meagan Taylor, and Katherine reached out to her connections at Fox Television Network.
Paris has been a popular figure in the past two years, especially this year. The indecent video alone has suppressed the scandals of countless Hollywood stars.
The two parties quickly reached an agreement and held a preview meeting in the pull-out room of the Fox Television Center.
That afternoon, Hawke, Rooney and Catherine rushed over with samples.
As for Fox, Meghan came to watch with her.
Her friend Natasha from the video channel is about 30 years old and has long brown hair.
Natasha introduced the other two people to Hawke: "This is York, the associate producer of the column, and this is Cole, the director."
Hawke shook hands with them all.
These three people have the final say.
After the greetings, Hawke said directly: "Shall we watch the show first? After watching the show, we can talk about other things?"
"Okay." Natasha is also a happy person.
Hawke handed the disk to an assistant, who immediately connected it to a digital player.
Megan did not sit with Hawke, but sat next to Natasha specifically.
The show starts playing.
The title sequence flashes on the screen, "Walking with Paris."
A beach house appears in the frame, and then Paris Hilton breaks into the frame to give the camera a tour of her luxurious Los Angeles home.
This woman was dressed in luxurious clothes and walked into an even more luxurious villa. She was showing off her wealth in every frame and every second.
Natasha frowned slightly. Although this was interesting, it might cause serious discomfort to the audience.
York and Cole exchanged glances, feeling that this show of wealth was a bit boring.
Because there are many such programs on other TV stations, the audience is tired of them.
But when the scene changed, Paris was hungry and wanted to find something to eat. The nanny at home was not there, the girl carrying the bag didn't know how to cook, and the wealthy daughter who had taken lady lessons was ready to cook herself.
She went to change into kitchen-specific clothes that she thought were suitable for work, and put on a sequined short skirt with diamonds and a rose gold hairpin.
In order to protect her hands while cooking, she also put on a pair of special fingerless gloves. Under the light, the gloves shone brightly with diamonds and rubies and sapphires.
Then she started making the first dish, ironing bacon.
During this period, I was clumsy and burned my hands twice. Fortunately, I was protected by diamond fingerless gloves and I was not injured.
The sense of contrast between the rich and exquisitely dressed super daughter and her bewildering cooking skills immediately attracted York and Cole's interest.
The latter lowered his voice: "This show is a bit interesting."
The experienced Yorke has grasped the essence: "Exquisite luxury and silly sweetness, the most typical rich girl in the public mind."
Paris shows off her superb cooking skills and luxurious kitchenware in front of the camera.
Pink potato peeler set with sapphires.
The sparkling bright pink salt, but unfortunately when adding the salt, half the bottle was poured down.
While making cream, he soiled his clothes and the gems on his gloves fell into the cream.
The boiled syrup becomes as black as pitch.
The originally snow-white cake turned a strange gray color.
York suddenly whispered: "This cake is delicious."
Cole glanced at him in surprise: "Do you dare to eat such dark food?"
York lowered his voice even lower: "Eat it and pull it out again, you can make a fortune! I just lost, at least five gems of more than one carat fell in!"
Cole immediately changed his tune: "I want to eat it too."
The show came to the end, and Paris decided to make the simplest fried steak.
It was all normal up front, but when she took out the frying pan and spatula, even Natasha couldn't help but laugh. The shovel is studded with diamonds!
At the end of the show, the rich lady finally ate the fried and slightly burnt steak.
It doesn't matter what you eat, what matters is that the eldest lady dresses herself up exquisitely and luxuriously from beginning to end.
Created an image of an unworldly "idiot Barbie".
Before the show ended, Paris took off her diamond-encrusted fingerless gloves and thanked them for protecting her.
Director Eric and producer Catherine's subtitles appeared at this time.
Megan looked at Natasha, who nodded slightly and smiled a little, saying there was no need to say more.
The screen turned off, York and Cole glanced at Natasha, and came over to shake hands with Hawke.
The former said: "A very exciting program. To be honest, it was a bit beyond my expectations. What appeared on the screen was a completely different Paris Hilton."
Hawke said with a smile: "The media has stigmatized her. In fact, she is just a girl in her early 20s, and she also has an ordinary side."
Natasha came over at this time and said directly: "The show is very interesting. I want it. Let's talk about cooperation somewhere else."

The main purpose of the trip was to get the show aired on television.
Hawke doesn't care much about copyright fees or advertising shares. The main thing is that Paris pays all the fees.
Rooney Chasen, the public relations manager, did her job and kept the rights to the show in Paris' hands.
He called Catherine and Rooney Chasen and followed Natasha to the reception room.
During the negotiations, Rooney took the lead, and Hawke and Catherine hardly spoke.
Although the show is interesting, Paris Hilton strictly speaking does not have an audience base. In the end, the three episodes of the show were only negotiated for US$1.5 million.
This also includes Fox's ownership of certain subsequent production and distribution rights.
The situation is similar to that of Hollywood movies, where the party with distribution channels has an absolute advantage.
On the second day, Hawke asked Rooney to call Paris over and sign a series of agreements.
Paris is very excited that her show can be broadcast on Fox's TV stations. She fully demonstrates what it means to be a rich second generation billionaire.
Paris divided the copyright fee of US$1.5 million into three parts, of which US$300,000 was awarded to Rooney Chasen, US$500,000 was used as a filming and production bonus for Eric's team, and the remaining US$700,000 was additionally given to Hawke as an additional bonus. Special Consultant Fees.
Through this period of contact, Hawke can basically confirm that Paris is not just silly and sweet.
A broadcast agreement was reached with Fox, and the filming of the remaining second and third episodes has begun in full swing.
Paris is much more serious than before, especially when it comes to making candies in the second period.
She entrusted Rooney Chasen to hire a confectioner with a high salary to teach her how to make candies more beautiful.
And a large number of gold foil and platinum foil were ordered for wrapping candies.
Across the screen, the audience cannot taste the candy, and the visual effect is the most critical.
She remembered everything Hawke said to Paris, and she wanted to create her own candy brand.
For the sake of US$1.5 million plus US$700,000, Hawke also gave Paris a few words of advice during the filming of the show: "Creating a candy brand requires a complete business plan. I can help. You make plans, but the actual business operation depends on you.”
He emphasized: "Paris, you'd better ask your parents for their opinions on this candy plan."
Paris didn't quite understand: "Apart from providing me with a prosperous life, they don't interfere with me in other aspects. Why should I ask them?"
Hawke asked: "Is candy a necessity in hotels owned by the Hilton Group?"
"Of course, candies will be placed at the front desk, lobby, gym, recreation room and other public relations occasions." After saying this, Paris suddenly realized and looked at Hawke blankly: "Is this the key to the success of the candy brand? ”
Hawke takes money to do things and is serious and responsible: "Don't think this is something to be ashamed of. Look at Eric and I. If we want such an opportunity, we can't even find a way."
Paris now has more trust in Hawke: "Okay, I will listen to you and call my parents tonight."
Hawke said: "This way your goals can be achieved faster."
Paris is ambitious: "I want to be famous, I want to be successful, I want to be a millionaire with a net worth of $1 billion!"
What Hawke did was actually to monetize Paris’ traffic.
The second episode is still being filmed here, and Fox Video Channel has already begun to promote Paris.
Paris' lawsuit against Rick Solomon for invasion of privacy also had its first hearing in Los Angeles.
Hawke asked Rooney to break the news in advance, and dozens of reporters came that day and surrounded the entrance of the District Court.
When Rooney accompanied Paris out, she gave a special interview to the media and announced that she would hold a press conference at the Hilton Hotel tomorrow to formally respond to the video.
Hawke no longer needs to worry about the rest.
Rooney is very skilled in these traditional media promotion routines.
At the subsequent press conference, Paris emphasized that she was a victim. At the climax of the press conference, it was announced that the program "Walking with Paris" will be launched on the Fox Film and Television Channel next weekend.
Fox also released a promotional video.
Paris's luxurious appearance and the eye-catching diamond spatula for frying steaks aroused strong reactions as soon as they appeared.
It's quite strange that someone's general could be so ferocious.
At the same time, posters showing Paris wearing diamond fingerless gloves and showing off her cooking skills also appeared on her official Twitter account.
The poster was widely reposted on Twitter, and in less than a day, it was on Twitter's trending news rankings.
In the past two years, Paris has been a popular figure in the gossip media. In terms of durability, she is more powerful than many Hollywood stars.
Taking advantage of the popularity of the topic, Fox launched this program.
