Chapter 547 Enjoy your meal
Sound City, Los Angeles.
It is still sunny, still dry and hot, and still in a corner. The passage of time seems to have temporarily forgotten this corner, and no one is paying attention.
The summer frenzy has been going on several times, but it has never reached here. The City of Sound seems to have been left behind by the world. They continue to move forward and expand their territories, but they forget to bring this place with them.
However, the paparazzi coming and going are always a rare sight, like flies on a garbage dump, or vultures over a corpse. Even if everyone around them retreats, they cannot be stopped.
There is only one reason, and only one reason is needed -
Anson.
Originally, summer hot spots come one after another, and the wave cannot stop at all. Although it is not as exaggerated as one hot spot every hour, switching to a hot topic every three to five days is also the fun of Hollywood.
As you can imagine, the paparazzi were too busy.
There is absolutely no need for them to hang themselves from a tree. If you don’t find any exclusives here, then switch to another one. This is Hollywood anyway, and there will never be a shortage of hot spots. It just lacks a pair of discovery eyes.
It can be said that Anson, a rising star who has just emerged, is not ranked at all.
However, the actual situation is slightly different -
"Spider-Man" continues to show its power, and there is no end in sight to the mighty heat wave. The subsequent box office trend is becoming more and more amazing, completely overwhelming " Star Wars Episode 2” was breathless, and this scene was not expected.
It is no exaggeration to say that "Spider-Man" has completely rewritten the summer season on its own. Almost all summer box office records have been attributed to Peter Parker, completely subverting the laws of the market.
And, in one fell swoop, it reversed the status of superhero movies.
Naturally, every week when the North American weekend box office is released, there will be a wave of hot topics, and there is no end in sight to the long-lasting popularity.
"Spider-Man". "Spider-Man". Or "Spider-Man".
In this context, the popular Anson has disappeared. Is this normal? Is this possible?
The answer is no.
It is natural that the media has no trace of Anson, but the paparazzi also know nothing about it, which seems like they have failed in their duties.
So, there was this scene in front of me.
Flies or vultures, no matter what, the paparazzi come to the City of Sound every now and then to spy on it to see if they can dig out some news.
Unfortunately——
Return without success.
Slowly, slowly, the paparazzi was inspired to become arrogant.
The paparazzi are not the uncrowned kings, but they are also targets that no one dares to easily provoke. They have dominated Hollywood for decades. When did they become so cowardly and embarrassed? The paparazzi will not let go of the person they want to spy on, even if they dig three feet into the ground, why is it just a mere Anson? So calm when surrounded by paparazzi?
So.
The paparazzi crossed the sea one by one and two of the Eight Immortals showed their magical powers and indeed unearthed a lot of revelations.
For example, Hayden Christensen.
I used to be roommates with Anson. The commercial blockbusters starring the two of them were released one after another this summer, and they competed head-on. However, the two never mentioned each other publicly or privately. There is something fishy about this. .
However.
Be it Hayden Fang or Anson Fang, their agents all expressed similar views:
The reason for not mentioning the other party is to avoid suspicion and avoid blurring the focus of publicity. The two are just roommates, not friends, but there is no conflict.
Paparazzi: Haha, I believe that there are ghosts.
Unfortunately, the point is that there is a lack of information.
The paparazzi can pick up rumors and fan the flames, but as long as the agent makes his position clear, it will be difficult to follow up. If he breaks the news casually, he may waste a good material, and in the end he can only wait.
Another example is Brad Renfro.
With Hayden's matter in front of him, even though there seemed to be no conflict between Brad and Anson, when Brad moved to Santa Monica alone, the paparazzi with a keen sense of smell noticed it immediately. Tricky.
But!
Brad insisted that nothing happened.
The paparazzi returned without success again.
A lot of suspicious clues were rummaged through, but not many of them could really be used. Even the space for fabricating right and wrong by looking at pictures and telling stories was very limited, which also made the paparazzi feel deeply frustrated. No, every now and then, paparazzi make a detour to the City of Sound——
According to TMZ’s photos and information, Anson is always recording here.
"...Anson is still in there?"
"TMZ said so."
"I have never followed a recording before. It is not news that the Backstreet Boys enter the recording studio, but they are locked in the recording studio day and night. This is normal. "It's normal. It's normal for all singers." "How long has it been?"
"Haha, you will sound like a layman when you hear it. Two or three weeks is just the beginning. Last year Superboy stayed in the studio for three or four months. God, that was a disaster."
"Oh, hell!"
Chirping, bustling, the paparazzi exchanged information with each other, trying to dig out some exclusives from Anson, but obviously, it was difficult, very, very difficult.
“So, Harry Pesci is just stupidly guarding here?”
“Don’t call him stupid, now TMZ’s click rate depends on Anson.”
“But it’s also relaxing this way. It’s not the same as running around. The paparazzi’s rice bowl makes office workers feel invisible, which I didn’t expect.”
"If I don't run away, will there be any exclusives? I don't think TMZ like Harry Pacey can hold on for long..."
The gaze drifted towards Harry in a vague way——
< br>Holding a newspaper and a bib, he was eating a burger with his mouth wide open.
In the eyes of many colleagues, he is actually a fool.
Harry noticed the gazes here and didn't mind. He even waved. The paparazzi who gathered also waved and said hello, but they couldn't help but continued to make bad remarks while whispering to each other.
Until——
"Hey! Wait, have you seen the exclusive that TMZ recently broke?"
"What exclusive? Anson continues to record albums in Sound City. Haha."
"No, no, no, no, Anson just shot an independent project in Portland with director Gus Van Sant."
In a flash. , and there was silence.
The paparazzi exchanged glances with each other. One or two of them were stunned, shocked or confused, but no one could make a sound.
"No, wait, TMZ said Anson has been in Sound City..."
"Yes, TMZ exclusively said that Anson deceived everyone, including them. I thought Anson was recording in Sound City, but in fact Anson went to Portland to collaborate on this project."
"How long did the collaboration last?"
"No. I know, the exclusive didn’t say it, it just said that this is an experimental project, and Anson personally likes it very much.”
One second, two seconds...
After the silence, they finally couldn't control themselves anymore. They began to curse and curse, and their eyes invariably focused on Harry Pacey.
Harry was still eating his burger, and when he noticed the sight, he waved again, and even asked in a loud voice, "Have you eaten?"
Paparazzi: Damn.
If they no longer know that they have been completely tricked by Harry, then it is best to quit the paparazzi business as soon as possible.
Immediately, one or two people took out their mobile phones and made calls and got busy, and the bustling crowd dispersed in an instant.
Harry smiled broadly and said, "Have a nice lunch!"
