The Wolf of Los Angeles

Chapter 157 Determine the target

Santa Monica, a newly replaced safe house.

The door was knocked rhythmically, Edward went over to open the door, and Campos, who had put on makeup, flashed in.

He looked at Hawk wearing a wig and beard and said, "Boss."

Hawke pointed to the opposite side: "Sit down." He asked, "How's your business recently?"

Campos sat down and said, "We took on several private detective jobs, all of whom were tracking and secretly photographing cheaters. In addition, there are more and more Mexicans in Los Angeles, and we have developed a lot of eyeliners, including hotels and restaurants. and people working on the set.”

Hawke has another purpose to look for him this time: "If you meet a Mexican policeman similar to you, after confirming the relevant situation, you can appropriately absorb it into the company. You have a channel to handle legal identity. If there is something worth handling, The company can pay for him, but pay attention to the pace of processing."

Campos understands: “I have already regarded legal status as one of the highest rewards for the company.”

He asked again, “Is there any important work to be done?”

"Cultivate a group of capable and good at shooting." Hawke's version of Twitter has not been officially launched yet, but the preparations must be done first: "There will be big news to be filmed later."

Campos also knows what the company's main business is currently, so he directly tracks the secretly photographed business to train people.

The meeting between the two only lasted for more than ten minutes and they left quickly.

Change back to his outfit and Mercedes-Benz, Hawke asked Edward to drive to Brian's law firm.

He signed an agency agreement with Brian on behalf of the newly established Twitter company.

After finishing all this, Brian called Hawke to the office and said, "The struggle above is getting fierce and may be involved in the lower part. You must be careful recently."

Hawke was mentally prepared for this. He had to bear the consequences if he did what he did: "Will he destroy us humanely?"

"Not to say, if both sides really need to fire a gun, the incident will be completely out of control." Brian is still confident in this: "There are family members on both sides, who dares to easily fire the first shot of the physical attack."

Hawke was quite careful and reminded: "Don't overestimate their moral standards. In the eyes of big men, we are just pawns."

Brian smiled, "Don't worry too much, it must be targeting me first, and then it's your turn."

Hawke patted him on the shoulder: "Your shield should be stronger and resist most of the damage."

He reiterated the old saying: "Be careful that they send a beautiful girl with AIDS to come and launch a biochemical attack on you."

Hearing the word AIDS, Brian was in a bad mood and was very angry and blessed on the spot: "You will encounter a gunfight of a hundred people next time!"

The two hurt each other, and Hawke specifically reminded him: "Did you only test for AIDS last time? It's not right. Look at the neck, there are a lot of red dots, and the hands are red, so they won't be infected. Is it syphilis?”

It doesn't matter if you don't say it. After saying that, Brian found that his neck and back of his hands were indeed a little red, but he thought for a while: "I'm in the sun!"

Hawke was kind-hearted: "I strongly recommend you go and test it again."

Brian's eyes were dull: "Do you still want me to find a beautiful woman?"

"Of course, I won't let it go during the special period." After a round trip, Hawke's words returned to Brian's starting point: "You are a shield, you can't fall in front of beauty."

He stood up and said before leaving, "Take your bodyguards every day, don't go out and hang out, don't let me help you clean up the bad things you have done!"

Brian spread his hands: "Listen to what you said, it seems like I'm very unreliable."

Hawke knew very well that Brian could hold on, and he would have less trouble, so he encouraged him: "Do you still remember? Our goal is the Oval Office!"

Brian nodded seriously: "We're just starting out, of course we can't fall down."

Hawke left the office and got into a Mercedes-Benz sedan.

Edward put down the newspaper and asked, "Boss?"

"Go to the company." Hawke was going to come to the newspaper to read it.

This is the Entertainment Weekly released on Monday, with the latest Oscar nomination list, as well as various comments on the nomination list.

The second edition of the headlines is a criticism of the nomination for this year's Oscar.

The black Hollywood people, led by Will Smith and Spike Lee, angrily criticized the lack of black elements in this Oscar for Best Movie, Best Director and Best Actor and Actress.

Even if the best supporting actor and actress is included, only Quinn Latifah was nominated.

It seems that they have all forgotten that last year's best actors and actresses were all black.

Spike Lee doesn't know how many times he swears at Oscars.

Will Smith also said Oscar lacked respect for black people.

There is no special preferential treatment, of course, it is a lack of respect.

Hawke finished reading Entertainment Weekly, threw it aside and picked up the Los Angeles Times below.

The news on the front page of the headlines attracted Hawke's attention.

Zipperton and his wife came to Los Angeles to promote Zipperton's rotation and attended a luxurious party called by Sean Combs. Leonardo DiCaprio, Will Smith, and Jennifer Lopez and other celebrities.

The news is a very clear group photo, which is clearly provided by the organizer to the Los Angeles Times.

In the photo, Zipper Dun and his wife occupy the C position, with many celebrities surrounding them.

There are many people who have worked with Hawke.

Hawke saw Saint Steve Nat right next to Sean Combs.

The selfie door male and female protagonists Josh Hartnett and Alison Fies were also found in the back row. Hawke randomly speculated that Zipper Dun came to Los Angeles, not only to promote autobiography and attend parties, but also to help the besieged Blue Party stand up.

When I arrived at Ocean Park Avenue, Mercedes-Benz stopped in front of the Twitter office building.

At the top of the company, workers are working on the construction and Twitter’s little bluebird logo has been erected.

Hawke came to the company and went to the technical department for a walk. The trial run version has been launched, and it is the web version for the time being, and the installation version can only be launched later.

The web version of the hot news location, the top two happen to be news that Hawke had just seen, the Zippertons and the couple attended the party, and the black crowd led by Will Smith and Spike Lee slammed the Oscars.

Hawke came to the office, and Caroline was busy making phone calls, contacting advertisements, forum promotions, attracting celebrity customers, and more.

In Hawk's name, she brought Dwayne Johnson, Steve Nutt, Josh Hartnett, Alison Fies and Sarah Parker to register.

Hawke wasn't idle either, so he called Eric Ethan and Katherine to ask them to help promote.

Then I remembered that Brian was very familiar with Tom Cruise, who was even pleasing him, so I called Brian and asked him to help recommend him to Tom Cruise.

Hawke called Susie again and suggested that LAPD open official Twitter so that the message could be posted in time.

Even that **** Frank, Hawke, didn't let go.

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!

Frank made only one request: "You promised me and let me be your new company consultant."

Hawke looked out the window, and opposite the company was the parking lot of Venice Beach and said, "I'll go and help you move tomorrow."

He asked, "Can you handle this on Venice Beach? Don't be beaten out by local gangs."

Frank was confident: "I'll do it with just a phone call."

Hawke hung up the phone.

"Boss." Caroline came over to report at this time: "After the new version of the website was launched, 455 registered users have been added so far."

Hawke nodded, "Don't worry, everything is difficult at the beginning."

Caroline handed over a fax: "This is a fax sent by Mary Ferguson."

"I get it." Hawke looked carefully and called Mary Ferguson.

Mary said directly: "The website is online. What about your next plan? You promised me that there will be more than 200,000 active users by May."

She slowed down: “You have to prove the potential and value of Twitter so that I can get more resources for you on the board.”

Hawke replied: "The plan will be implemented soon."

"I'll wait and see." Mary hung up the phone quickly.

Hawke knew very well that the biggest problem now was how to attract users to the Twitter website.

The plan he formulated is to use explosive news to attract users.

For the general public, the attraction of shocking gossip is far greater than that of social and current affairs news.

Unless the latter can get the 911 level.

Hawke prepared two candidates while planning, and after meeting Gretchen and Will Smith at Fox Building that day, the candidates increased to three.

The first two came from sports stars, one was the golf industry superstar Tiger Woods.

The other is the super inspirational bicycle star, Lance Armstrong, who has won four Tour de France championships.

The former is a well-known **** addiction patient.

The latter, a typical American sports star, and a stimulant.

Hawke also collected some preliminary information through the Internet, first giving up Tiger Woods. This sex-addicted tiger currently has only a girlfriend and is not married yet. The impact of gossip scandal is not strong enough.

Lance Armstrong, a sports star with testicular cancer, is a good candidate.

Hawke vaguely remembers what the key to his doping case is.

But these two people have a much worse influence than Will Smith.

Currently in 2003, Shi Huang is approaching the peak of his career.

There are not many stars in the entire Hollywood who are truly at the same level as Shi Huang.

Hawke suddenly remembered the Los Angeles Times that he had watched, the Zippertons and Sean Combs, who was nicknamed Bragging Dad.

The parties these guys have must be unusual.

But Hawke knew very well that he should not provoke them at this stage.

Strength is the foundation.

By contrast, Will Smith alone is much safer.

Hawke made the decision, first choice Will Smith, Lance Armstrong backup.

He called Caroline and asked her to do some preliminary data collection work.
