The Kobe Bryant scandal that occurred in Eagle County once again proved that the shocking gossip scandals of celebrities have far more influence than social and political news.
As Twitter’s overseas users increase, the Internet has witnessed a global collective phenomenon.
Twitter has entered another period of rapid user growth.
"Boss, the live broadcast is about to begin."
Edward entered the office, reminded Hawke, picked up the remote control, turned on the TV, and switched to CNN: "That woman can't be mistaken."
Hawke and Erica just went to shoot hundreds of rounds today, quickly assembled the pistol for maintenance, and said: "It doesn't matter to us whether it's true or false."
As soon as the hour hit, CNN cut to Eagle County's press conference.
In the live broadcast, the person in charge of the police announced a series of inspection results in the Kobe Bryant case.
Katherine Feibel's body was damaged, and Kobe's genetic material was extracted. The underwear she provided also contained material that matched the two people's DNA.
In addition, the results of the injury examination were also obtained. There were fresh wounds on Catherine's face, neck and torso.
Although there is no other evidence, these made Kobe extremely passive.
Subsequently, the Eagle County Police Department officially issued an arrest warrant for Bryant.
Kobe paid a bail of US$25,000. Agent Pelinka made his first response on behalf of Kobe, denying the rape charges and saying that everything was done with the woman's consent.
But no one believed him. To be precise, no one wanted to believe him.
Especially the media.
When Kobe can't produce evidence to clear his name, what the media most wants to see is for the superstar to become a sex offender.
Even superstar cheating isn't exciting enough.
Just when the media and public opinion overwhelmingly nailed Kobe to the pillar of humiliation.
Hawke felt that the time had come and let Twitter continue to broadcast the news.
"There is a hidden secret in the Kobe Bryant case, and Twitter received pictures and videos from another informant."
The content of this news, the perspective has changed, there are photos of Katherine actively hooking up with Kobe, and the two are intimately together.
In the video, Catherine, who was taking Kobe to visit the spa, held hands with Kobe, just like a couple in love.
During this period, he also took the initiative to kiss Kobe.
As soon as these came out, a lot of media were confused. Does Twitter have a stance? The whole Internet is labeling Kobe Bryant a physical offender. Why do you give up your stance?
The health news was exposed first on your Twitter!
The leader at the front actually rebelled.
This is certainly not enough to change public opinion.
But it once again attracted traffic to Twitter.
The latest statistics obtained by Hawke show that since the Kobe scandal broke out, the number of new registered users on Twitter every day has exceeded 400,000.
The average number of daily active users is close to 20 million.
Although these are global user statistics, Twitter is already the leader in the North American social media industry.
At the same time, the Eagle County Police contacted Twitter and asked Twitter to provide relevant materials to assist in the investigation of the case.
Hawke told Caroline to refuse.
Are you kidding me? The police in Eagle County, Colorado, even come to Los Angeles.
Kobe was released on bail and returned to Los Angeles from Eagle County.
Vanessa didn't quarrel with him, giving Kobe at least a stable back.
Pelinka contacted Hawke through Biles from the same agency and expressed that he wanted to sit down and talk.
Hawke also gave a clear reply, asking them to come directly to Twitter.
That afternoon, Pelinka came to Twitter with Kobe and his wife.
Hawke, Edward and Caroline received them together.
Pelinka didn't want to be completely at a disadvantage right from the start, so he got straight to the point and asked: "Mr. Osmond, where did you get the news about Kobe?"
Hawke said without expression: "Twitter solicits news from around the world and offers higher prices than other media. Those freelance reporters are willing to cooperate with Twitter. For example, in this Eagle County incident, nine people Sold news and videos they shot to Twitter ”
Hearing this, Vanessa's eyes fell on her husband like knives. With so many paparazzi following her, do you have eyes?
Pelinka was dealing with Hawke for the first time and wanted to put pressure: "These are important evidence involved in a criminal case. The Eagle County police should have contacted you, you..."
"If you want to talk about this." Hawke interrupted: "You can go."
Kobe was a little anxious: "Do you have any photos or videos that can prove my innocence?"
Edward responded: "This is Twitter's trade secret, thank you."
"Do you know he is in difficulty now?" Vanessa has been under too much pressure these days. When her husband exposes such an incident, you can imagine what a woman has to endure.
Under the heavy pressure, she lost her composure: "He is the father of a child, the father of a baby who is less than half a year old!"
"So, everything your husband is enduring and everything your children are experiencing is all Twitter's fault?" Miss Me's little ewe side will only be shown to Hawke.
Faced with these aggressive bastards, Yangshanzi not only jumped out, but also showed his fangs: "Your husband can't control his crotch. Is it Twitter's fault that your husband is happy with other women?"

Seeing that the talks were about to collapse, Pelinka quickly smoothed things over: "Sorry, we didn't mean that."
Caroline automatically entered mutton-leg mode and charged into battle. She wants to break all the other party's illusions.
Caroline looked at Pelinka: "You use the law to suppress us first, evidence? What evidence? According to the Press Act, the media purchases copyrighted news materials, which are regarded as the media's corporate property. Without the formalities of a judge's approval, anyone can I don’t have the right to view it. Where are your procedures?”
She looked at Vanessa again: "What about you? You stand on the moral high ground and point fingers at us. Do you need me to discuss the moral issues of this matter with you?"
Kobe stretched out his hand, pressed it down on both sides, and said to the three people opposite him: "I'm very sorry. They were too worried about my situation and were a little impatient."
Caroline said coldly: "I don't think you are ready. It will not be too late to talk when you are ready."
Pelinka had realized at this time that his strategy was completely wrong.
But he is an agent, not a publicist.
Hawke also glanced at the agent. If the former Kobe Bryant had been more clear-headed in public relations, he would not have been troubled by this case for more than two years.
The longer it takes, the greater the damage to reputation and business will be.
From Twitter to Butterfly Company, the news that has been obtained by using so much manpower and material resources cannot be given to others in vain.
Since the other party had nothing to lose, Hawke nodded slightly to the three of them, got up and left the reception room.

Caroline showed off her guests.
Pelinka had no choice but to leave with Kobe and his wife.
I went downstairs and got into the commercial vehicle, and the black playmate was responsible for driving.
Vanessa asked: "Do they really have something in their hands that can prove Kobe's innocence?"
Pelinka reminded: "The black man named Edward just said he had it."
Kobe asked: "What should I do?"
"Please help." Pelinka took out his cell phone and called Biles again, talking for a long time.
The two had a good relationship within the company, and Biles agreed to try to ask Steve Nutt out to meet them.
Soon, the call came back, and the two parties agreed to meet at the Beverly Business Club.
As the car drove that way, Pelinka took out the recorder from his pocket and pressed the play button. There was only noise.
He shook his head and threw it into his bag.
Those people were too careful and installed jamming devices in the reception room.
Arriving at the Beverly Club, the group met Saint Steve.
Today's Steve doesn't look like a professional athlete. There is an elegance in his movements, and his bright eyes seem to be able to see through people's hearts.
After participating in social movements for more than a year, Steve has transformed and gained a better understanding of media, public opinion and business.
He is with the Los Angeles Dodgers and has long since stopped playing, but the Dodgers still renewed his contract.
Pelinka briefly talked about Kobe and what just happened on Twitter.
"I understand." Steve saw the key point at a glance and asked Kobe directly: "You are not willing to pay a huge sum of money. Neither the girl named Catherine nor the Twitter side want to pay too much money, right?" Wrong? ”
Kobe was silent.
Pelinka said: "Kobe was framed."
Steve shook his head slightly: "What you are saying is meaningless. If Twitter really has something to prove Kobe's innocence, Twitter has taken the initiative. It can make you a strong criminal or just a criminal." Cheating person.”
Speaking of this, he laughed to himself: "I have cooperated with Hawke several times, and each cooperation has been a great success. He always does everything possible to help me achieve the best results."
The three Kobe Bryants didn't understand the meaning of these words.
Steve was used to being the center of attention and said calmly: "It's actually very simple, let Hawke be on your side."
Kobe said: "But he didn't want to stand up."
Steve suddenly felt that these sports stars were very cute: "If he doesn't stand over, won't you take the initiative to stand over?"
These words made the three people slightly stunned.
For the sake of Kobe's black skin, Steve said: "Hoke is the founder of Twitter and the founder of West Coast Media and Entertainment Studios. According to my understanding, Hawke is still engaged in crisis public relations and business strategy consulting."
He simply said: "You go to Hawke, sign a public relations agreement with him, let him serve as the public relations manager of this incident, and then you spend a sum of money to buy the things in Twitter's hands that can prove your innocence. If copyright is spread through the now-influential Twitter platform, wouldn’t the matter be solved?”
Pelinkas' thoughts suddenly became clear, and then he looked at the Kobes.
Kobe remained silent.
Steve glanced at the basketball superstar, sighed secretly, and said no more.
If a black son had been born like this man, he would have been ruined.
Steve slowly walked out of the reception room.
Biles patted Pelinka on the shoulder, called him out, and chatted alone for a long time.
After Steve was presented with this example, Pelinka immediately went back and discussed it with Kobe for a long time.
Kobe was silent for five minutes and finally made a decision: "Let's go back to Twitter."
(Maybe I have influenza A. The fever last night was over 39 degrees, and I almost died. I went to the hospital today to get fluids. I can only rely on my manuscripts for the time being. I can’t break out. Please forgive me.) (End of this chapter)
