Meizong Wealth Life

Chapter 133 Sif’s Temptation, American Version of Metamorphosis

Under Serena's "friendly reminder", Jamie finally remembered the ending of Casey Johnson's previous life.

The daughter of the Johnson & Johnson Group, who was born with a golden key in her mouth, finally succeeded in committing suicide.

The result of his crazy rebellion is that his relationship with his father is getting worse and worse.

For an old-money family like Woody Johnson, their daily style is extremely low-key, and they are also very disgusted with their children's public appearances and frequent reports in the newspapers.

Especially the things that make the news are not so glorious.

In the end, Woody Johnson couldn't stand Kathy's dissolute behavior, so he not only severed the father-daughter relationship with Kathy, but also canceled Kathy's qualifications in the family trust fund.

Cathy's mother also cut off any financial support for Cathy because of her persistent behavior.

But all this still failed to restore Cathy's determination to commit suicide. She openly made friends with girlfriends and began to abuse various contraband.

Finally one day in 2010, she was found dead in her rented apartment.

The Johnson family has not announced the cause of Casey's death, but everyone knows it.

Jamie is not a Virgin, and he has no sympathy for Casey, so his first reaction after learning that Casey joined "Simple Life" is that this is actually good news.

Paris Hilton is not a strong opponent on her own, and now that she has a pig teammate like Casey to drag her down, the probability of "Simple Life" being screwed up is greatly increased.

On the other hand, in "Manhattan Ladies", although the guest lineup has expanded from four to six at the beginning, the luxury of the lineup has not been reduced.

If nothing else, the appearance of the guests alone far exceeds that of "Simple Life".

Serena, Blair, Rebecca, Poppy, and Ellie were all top beauties in Hollywood in their previous lives, and even Kim Kardashian, who joined last, will be the most popular actress in Hollywood in the future.

The program content and production methods of "Manhattan Housewives" are based on previous popular reality shows such as "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" and "The House of Beverly Hills."

For "Simple Life", it can be regarded as a dimensionality reduction blow.

Although "The Simple Life" seems to be full of gimmicks at the moment, the combination of Miss Hilton and the daughter of Johnson & Johnson Group can indeed make this program attract attention when it first airs.

However, whether it is Paris or Kathy, these two women are not fuel-efficient lamps.

Paris is more famous, but Casey's family background is undoubtedly more advantageous. It's surprising that the two of them can finish recording the show peacefully.

It is estimated that the noise caused by these two women outside the show will be bigger than the noise in the show itself.

Under Jamie's persuasion, Serena also decided not to make any response to the matter.

However, Paris, who is well versed in the art of hype, did not miss this opportunity to appear in "Manhattan Ladies".

The next day, she publicly expressed her disdain for "Ladies of Manhattan" on a TV show.

The host took the opportunity to ask whether it was true that there were rumors that Paris would also join "Ladies of Manhattan" some time ago.

Paris denied it on the spot.

They even bit back and said that this was false news deliberately released by the "Manhattan Ladies" program team for the sake of hype.

Even the host was shocked by this unabashed manner.

However, this is only the beginning.

Paris then started to complain about the show "Manhattan Ladies", claiming that it was just a childish game played by Serena, Blair and a bunch of high school students. Even if she was invited to participate, she would not be interested.

Serena stood in front of the TV with her arms folded, her pretty face covered with a layer of frost.

Sifu, who was sitting on the sofa behind her, looked embarrassed.

Because the program interviewing Paris is from Vestar News, and the production company of the reality show "Simple Life" is also a subsidiary of Vestar News.

Even if you think about it with your toes, you will know that Paris's cheeky output on "Ladies of Manhattan" must have come from the Weststar News Channel.

But Sif didn't know about this, and when she came to visit today, she actually wanted to discuss another matter with Jamie.

In order to clear up the relationship, Sif stood up and explained to Serena as soon as Jamie picked up the remote control and turned off the TV:

"This is all the idea of ​​that fat pig, Roger Ailes. This guy relies on my father's trust in him and usually doesn't take me, Kendall, and Roman seriously. No matter what happens to us in the future, If any one of them succeeds my father, the first thing he will do is fire this bastard!"

When she said these words, Sif's eyes were full of sincerity, and she couldn't even hide the disgust in her eyes when she mentioned Roger Ailes.

But Jamie knows that if the Roger Ailes workplace sexual harassment scandal hadn't been exposed in his previous life, he would have been able to serve as president of Weststar News until his retirement.

After all, this guy is really capable. In its heyday, Wester News's ratings were higher than those of its two competitors, CNN and MSNBC combined.

Every year, the Vestar News Channel he oversees generates more than $10 billion in net profit for the Roy family.

As long as this remains true, Roger's position at Vestar News will be rock solid.

Old Logan even planned for Sif to intern under Roger after graduation, but not to learn how to make money, because Sif had expressed her ambition before going to college. She wanted to enter politics and be a political broker in the future. .

Roger's ability to make money is secondary, but his most powerful influence is his influence in the political arena.So far, four Elephant Party presidents have been elected, and Roger's name can be seen on the campaign team.

There is even an exaggerated saying that Roger is the "fourth power" after the separation of powers in the United States.

The rebellious nature in Sif's body has been revealed at this time. She is very disgusted with her father's arrangement, and naturally she has no good impression of Roger Ailes.

Of course, just scolding Roger can show sincerity, and Sif then gave Serena a "big gift".

She told the inside story about the production of "Simple Life" without any psychological hindrance.

"As far as I know, the show is going to be filmed in a small town in Arkansas, and their idea is to have Paris and Kathy leave their well-heeled, well-to-do, wealthy life in New York for a two-week experience. civilian life.”

"It is said that the idea for this show comes from Mark Twain's "The Prince and the Pauper". Paris even wanted to invite me to participate in recording this show. I want to say that she wants to be famous and wants to go crazy. I don't want to I will play this boring game with them where the prince turns into a beggar.”

Serena frowned, obviously not completely believing Sif's statement.

On the contrary, Jamie looked interested.

Combined with the memories of her previous life, Jamie knew that Sif was not lying.

"The Simple Life" is, to put it bluntly, the American version of "The Metamorphosis".

The idea of ​​a reality show in which a prince turns into a beggar is very interesting. It was also the same in the previous life of "Simple Life". Although the whole plot is full of all kinds of artificial performances, meaningless humor, and shameless disrespect, after it was broadcast, But it got good ratings.

The production company struck while the iron was hot and produced three more seasons of the show in one go.

Later, if the relationship between Paris and Nicole hadn't broken down, and then the two were deeply involved in scandals, this reality show might still be able to continue.

Serena and Sif were shocked after Jamie expressed his appreciation for the show's creativity.

Jamie shrugged and explained:
"Although I don't think "Simple Life" can pose a threat to "Manhattan Housewives," but purely from a creator's perspective, I think "Simple Life" has really great program creativity."

As he spoke, Jamie looked at Sif specifically and added meaningfully:
"If I were the curator of this show, I would be sure to make it even better."

Serena looked at her boyfriend in disbelief, while Sif's heart immediately started ringing with alarm bells.

She didn't think Jamie would be so "kind" to help.

After all, the success of "The Simple Life" will not bring Jamie any benefits, unless there is some ulterior conspiracy.

Under Sif's suspicious gaze, Jamie began to explain the reason.

"Yes, I really don't need to help the "Simple Life" program team, but what if I can help you?"

"I?"

Sif's face was full of disbelief.

Jamie just shrugged at that.

"You just mentioned that you will intern under Roger Ailes after graduating from college. If you can provide suggestions for improving "The Simple Life", the program will eventually receive better feedback, whether it is your father or Roger Ailes. Els will definitely take a high look at you, right?"

Sif was not dazzled by the pie that Jamie drew, and asked calmly:

"But why are you helping me? Don't tell me it's just to gain my friendship!"

If Jamie had said this to Sif in private, Sif might have thought that Jamie had other intentions for her.

But in front of Serena, Jamie doing this makes people have to doubt his true purpose.

Seeing this, Jamie could only remind:

"I think you all have misunderstood a concept. The fact that the show "The Simple Life" has become better does not directly equate to Hilton getting more benefits from the show."

Sif immediately thought of a possibility.

"You mean to kick Hilton off from 'The Simple Life' and replace him with someone else?"

Now it was Jamie's turn to be surprised.

Unexpectedly, Sif was so decisive and thought of kicking Hilton out in one step.

This is of course the most ideal situation, but Jamie doesn't think Sif has such courage.

The most important thing is that Jamie knows that the decision-making power of the "Simple Life" program does not lie in Sif's hands. At most, she can only give suggestions to the program team.

Even so, Jamie still pretended to be looking forward to it and asked:
"Really? I mean you replace Hilton on the show."

Sif shook her head decisively, saying that this was absolutely impossible.

Firstly, she doesn’t like to do this kind of publicity and get killed directly, and secondly, she doesn’t want to offend Paris Hilton.
