Chinese Entertainment's Shining Star

While the two reporters were inquiring about Drake, Li Xiang was also reporting to Nie Wei.

"I have already paid for the medical expenses, which only cost 350 US dollars. Once his family arrives, I will give them another 500 US dollars for nutritional expenses. Mr. Nie, do you think this is okay?"

"Let's do it like this." Nie Wei nodded in agreement, and then asked: "Have you recorded the conversation between you and Drake?"

"It's all done. Drake said a lot of thanks to you." Li Xiang replied with a smile.

He wanted to laugh from the bottom of his heart. Today, Drake provoked Nie Wei from the beginning, and ended up thanking Nie Wei profusely. This change seemed quite interesting to Li Xiang.

But Nie Wei knew very well that this was just a matter of poverty and short ambition.

"In addition to the nutrition fee, you can also buy them some nutrition and supplements." Nie Wei thought for a while and gave one more instruction. After all, acting requires a complete set.

Today's incident was witnessed by reporters from the surrounding media. Although Doug promised to stop these media from talking nonsense, Nie Wei would definitely not be so naive.

In front of huge news materials, these reporters can even risk their lives, let alone a non-threatening warning from you, a policeman?

Therefore, Nie Wei must be fully prepared to deal with the media.

For example, the video taken by the on-site cameraman and the subsequent processing, Nie Wei can be said to be unable to find any fault. If the media deliberately discredits him, he has plenty of evidence to fight back.

"Come back when you're done. I've booked a big meal for you at the hotel. Thank you for your hard work today." Before hanging up the phone, Nie Wei didn't forget to praise Li Xiang.

Li Xiang was very busy today and really put in a lot of effort.

After Li Xiang received praise from Nie Wei, he quickly expressed excitement: "No hard work, no hard work, this is what I should do."

After hanging up the phone, Li Xiang couldn't help but pump his fist excitedly. If he wasn't in the hospital, he would have screamed a few times to vent his inner joy. After all, it was Nie Wei's praise. In the workplace, what could be better? Is it more satisfying to receive praise and appreciation from your boss?

After all, this probably means promotion and salary increase.

Of course, after the excitement, he quickly regained his composure. After all, the task assigned by the boss was the top priority, so after stopping a young nurse to ask him if there was a fruit shop nearby, he quickly set off.

About twenty minutes later, Li Xiang returned to the hospital after buying a lot of fruits in the supermarket. However, when he walked to the corridor where Drake stayed, he found that there were already five or six people around there, and one of them was a woman. Li Xiang's attention was drawn because he had seen this woman on the set before. It was not because of his amazing memory, but because this woman was nearly 1.8 meters tall and looked particularly tall and eye-catching among a group of people.

The group of people did not notice Li Xiang's arrival. After all, this was a corridor and not a ward. There were many people coming and going. Lucy, who was concentrating on the interview at this time, could not pay attention to others.

"Mr. Derek, was your injury caused by Mr. Nie Wei?" Lucy tried her best to trick Derek and guide him to the answer she wanted.

As expected, Derek nodded of course when he heard Lucy's question.

"This injury was indeed caused by Mr. Nie Wei, but..."

"Oh, thank you for your answer. You can tell me in detail why there was a conflict between you and Mr. Nie Wei." Lucy didn't give Derek a chance to say 'but' at all. Those explanations That's not what she wanted to hear.

All she needed was Derek's nod. After all, the news she wanted was about conflict, which could be conflicts caused by wealth disparity, conflicts between races, or both, but she just didn't want those warm feelings. .

Because only this kind of conflict will make readers indignant, excited and enjoyable, while the tenderness will only coax the readers to sleep, and maybe even comment on it as "false".

Lucy was very happy to talk to them, but Li Xiang, who had already walked not far from them and eavesdropped for a long time, was not in a good mood.

What does this female reporter mean? He almost understood it after hearing a few sentences.

Isn't it just trying to throw dirty water on your boss?

After listening for a while, Li Xiang felt that he couldn't listen anymore. This female reporter didn't respect the facts at all. She was just talking to Drake. At the same time, she felt happy in her heart. Fortunately, the boss asked him to record it in the first place. Otherwise, what happened today would have happened. If the reporter followed the female reporter's Q\u0026A and reported it, the whole matter would be completely turned upside down.

If the Drake family is persuaded by this group of reporters to give false testimony again, Nie Wei may not be able to explain the matter clearly even if he talks ten times.

Of course, the top priority was to quickly stop the female reporter from asking further questions and sternly warn her not to make false reports.

"Excuse me, madam, what are you doing here?" Li Xiang made a quick decision, squeezed in, stopped beside Drake, and asked Lucy.

Lucy was startled by the sudden appearance of Li Xiang, but she quickly calmed down. Looking at Li Xiang's obviously Asian face, and with a little sense of familiarity, she quickly determined that this must be It's Nie Wei's.

"Of course I'm interviewing this gentleman." Lucy pointed to Derek behind Li Xiang, and then took out the phone: "Please don't interrupt my interview, otherwise I can call the police."

"Then please call the police now. I suspect that your interview violates journalist ethics and is suspected of defaming my employer. I believe that the law will give us a fair and just judgment, right?" Li Xiang was not afraid of Lucy's threat.

Lucy was not surprised by this. She called the police to scare Li Xiang. In her impression, these Asians are very afraid of the police, even if they are the right party in the matter.

Seeing that her trick did not scare Li Xiang, Lucy snorted coldly and put away her phone.

"I don't want to waste my precious time on you. I reiterate again, please get out of the way. My interviewee is Mr. Drake. Mr. Drake has agreed to accept our interview. You are hindering our freedom of the press. Is the person you represent always so overbearing?"

Although Lucy did not mention who Li Xiang represented, everyone actually knew who it was.

"When we Chinese do things, the most important thing is peace. We are the most peace-loving country in the world, and we never do anything overbearing. But if some people want to use some language games to discredit or even hurt us, we will never accept it weakly, and we will never be soft-handed when it is time to fight back."

"Ms. Reporter, do you understand what I said? Please put away your tricks." Li Xiang pointed to the recorder in Lucy's hand. The female reporter deliberately covered the work light of the recorder, and her purpose was naturally self-evident.

But what Lucy didn't expect was that Li Xiang had been on guard against her tricks from the beginning.

"Humph!" Lucy didn't turn off the recorder because of this, but she was in a bad mood. She found that the guy in front of her was too cunning, and his words were flawless. All her tricks were discovered by him. He was as cunning as a fox.

So Lucy decided not to entangle with this person, but asked Drake directly.

"Mr. Drake, are you still going to accept our interview?" Lucy said, "Our newspaper has sold more than 100,000 copies nationwide."

"Tsk." Li Xiang heard the data and snorted disdainfully, which made Lucy choke.

"I promise to put your interview in a prominent position." Fortunately, Lucy is also an old reporter. She doesn't care about her face. She quickly stabilized her emotions and continued to seduce Drake.

When Drake heard that he would appear in the newspaper news, he was immediately moved.

"Really? My name will appear in the newspaper?"

"Not only your name, but also your photo will appear in the newspaper." Lucy pointed to her companion Rick, who also cooperated and picked up the camera and gestured to Drake.

When Drake saw the camera, his expression suddenly became a little excited, and he even ignored the pain in his ankle for a while. Even his relatives showed an expression of desire, as if they all hoped that Drake could be in the newspaper.

Li Xiang watched from the side, and understood the reaction of the Drake family in his heart.

He had just had a brief conversation with Drake, and he knew that Drake's family was counting on Drake to become successful in basketball and change the family's fate, so Drake was so afraid of getting hurt, because he was afraid that his impulsiveness would ruin not only himself, but also the dreams of his family.

In Li Xiang's impression, there are many such families. For example, don't the poor in many South American countries count on their children to play football and change their families' lives?

Like those South American stars, most of them actually have very poor families.

It's similar in North America. How many NBA stars, especially black stars, come from wealthy families?

Many of them have changed the fate of themselves and their families through basketball, which has also played a great role as a role model, and has also made more people want to squeeze into this professional circle in order to change their fate.

After all, as long as they can sign a formal contract with an NBA team, they will have at least hundreds of thousands of dollars in income, which is even more than Drake's family can earn in decades.

Looking at the Drake family's intention, Li Xiang was not panicked.

"Derrick, calm down and listen to me." Li Xiang smiled gently, comforting Drake who was about to be interviewed, and said, "I don't think that appearing in third-rate entertainment newspapers like theirs will be of any use to your basketball career, right?"

"Sir, please watch your words..." Lucy was unhappy. What is a third-rate entertainment newspaper? Their newspaper is obviously a first-rate local entertainment newspaper.

However, Li Xiang's next words made her speechless.

Ignoring Lucy's protest, Li Xiang said, "You may only know that our boss is a director, but you don't know his other identity. He is also the boss of the Los Angeles Times. If he wants, he can let the whole United States know you. Here I want to mention that the sales of the Los Angeles Times are two million copies."

When Li Xiang said this, he deliberately stretched out two fingers and gestured to Lucy, which made Lucy almost bite her teeth.

Obviously, Li Xiang was specifically targeting the 100,000 sales she just mentioned.

But Lucy wanted to refute but she had no basis at all. After all, their newspaper was not comparable to the world-class media like the Los Angeles Times. Li Xiang seemed to be showing off, but in fact, he was not exaggerating at all. It was all true.

I am so angry. Is it great to have a big newspaper? Lucy thought angrily.

Li Xiang looked at the angry Lucy with a smile. If he knew what Lucy was thinking at this moment, he would definitely tell her that it was amazing.

As expected, after hearing what Li Xiang said, Drake's breathing became rapid.

"Drake, I still remember that your favorite team is in Los Angeles. Our boss has a good relationship with that team..."

"Sir, you are tempting my interviewee. I suspect you want to cover up the truth in this way." Lucy didn't dare to let Li Xiang continue, because she knew that the weight in her hand was no match for Li Xiang. If Li Xiang continued to say this, Drake's heart would definitely be completely biased towards Li Xiang.

But Lucy didn't expect that she would offend the Drake family so much by suddenly intervening.

At this time, including Drake, the five members of their family were all staring at Lucy fiercely, especially Drake, who wanted to slap this stinky woman a few times at this moment to let her know that there are some things that she can't decide for herself.

Only Drake knew how much impact Li Xiang's words had on him.

Although Li Xiang only revealed a little bit, and no one could confirm that it was true, Drake thought, how could such a big shot fool a low-level person like him?

And he didn't ask for much. If Nie Wei could really give him a chance to try out for the Lakers through his connections, then Drake would really wake up laughing in his dreams.

People like him lack such opportunities. Not everyone who comes to recommend themselves will be treated preferentially. More often, they will be driven away like a dog in the province where the security guards laugh at them, and Drake is the latter.

Moreover, although his family also supports him very much, it's a pity that his family doesn't have the money to support his "willfulness". That time he recommended himself to the door, he had already spent all his family's savings. He couldn't have that money to travel all over the United States to pursue that illusory opportunity.

He didn't have any record to show off. Even if he believed in his strength, he didn't even have the opportunity to show it. What could he do?

So when Li Xiang showed that he could help him, anyone who organized this matter would be Drake's enemy.

Obviously, at this moment, Lucy has been on Drake's blacklist.

Drake, who originally had a good impression of this female reporter, now wants to use his cane to block her mouth.

Thanks to Fantasy Paradise for the generous reward.
