The Wolf of Los Angeles

Chapter 44: Make trouble and money

Fox Building, Fox TV Center.

Hawke just entered the reception room and found Megan, a tall, blonde female producer and anchor, who was waiting here.

Megan smiled and asked, "Did you bring the video?"

Hawke didn't talk nonsense, his notebook was placed on the table.

Claire took the adapter and connected it to the power supply.

Hawke turned on the camera and clicked on the shooting video.

Megan hugged her chest with her hands, and two pieces of her clothes could be seen on both sides of her clothes.

The video is played, and the **** of a Cadillac car appears, and the picture keeps following Cadillac.

The car stopped, and the picture was still Cadillac's **** until the sirens sounded, the camera lifted up, and two LAPDs appeared behind the car.

Robert Downey Jr. got out of the car, took out a pistol, and pointed it at the female patrolman. The female patrolman fired faster and cleared the magazine.

The camera moved, and a close-up of Donny appeared in the picture, with the shot's chest, blood-stained cheeks and blood flowing from under him.

Seeing this, Megan's breathing became rapid and fell into inexplicable excitement, and every brain cell was jumping.

The explosive news made her unable to help but seize the explosive point of public concern: "This news can be linked to other violent law enforcement in LAPD and create a wave of…"

Hawke sensed the crisis: "If you report on this position, I will take the news away."

Megan stopped him: "Also?"

Hawke clicked on another video: "Finish this article first, and then you can determine the reporting position."

The video of Downey dealing with the dealer in the parking lot was played.

Megan immediately overturned her previous thoughts and changed her tone: "Robert Downey Jr. participated in the transaction, hid a lot of drugs, and attacked the police with a gun after taking an overdose."

Hawke completely let go: "It made Donnie disgrace and was despised by the mainstream media."

Meghan thought more: "Linking Downey's previous drug-related cases, other drug-related cases in Hollywood that have been exposed, extending the spread of drugs and drugs in Hollywood, and the negative social impact caused by celebrity idols."

Hawke killed someone and killed his heart: "There is also the history of drug use between Donnie and his son, digging deeper into why Donnie Jr., and what he did after being infected with the poison."

Meghan remembered that the news was of great value, and she offered a price directly: "50,000 US dollars, two videos, and one news."

Hawke checked the price before coming: "Two months ago, LAPD shot and killed a black man, and sold $8,000 on Channel 9. Did an unknown civilian die or a less popular society die news."

He took a picture of the border of the notebook: "Now, the deceased has been nominated for the Oscar for Best Actor and is also the winner of the British Academy Award. In the process of drug trafficking and even possible drug trafficking, he armed against LAPD's temporary inspection, and almost killed one A female policewoman is worth more than ten times more valuable!”

Hawke specifically emphasized: "A female police officer!"

Megan was active in thinking and immediately followed Hawke's idea: "Yes, the gender of the policewoman can make a fuss."

The characteristics of media people are undoubtedly revealed in her. She wanted to engage in violent law enforcement by the female policewoman, but now she has made a big turn: "Women are brave and fearless, men can do what women can do, and women can do it too. Contact the Los Angeles Women's Organization to promote them. Go to the brave female patrolman and follow up the whole process. This is a good opportunity to promote the development of feminism."

Having said that, the news video must be won.

Meghan is not lacking in decisiveness and has a broad vision. He directly bids: "$100,000, which is the largest number I can give. If you exceed these, I can only say sorry."

"Okay, $100,000, but the reporting position you mentioned needs to be written on the transfer agreement." Hawke responded: "A suggestion is included."

He quickly said: "With Downey's personality, there must be many people offended in Hollywood over the years. Why don't you invite some connections and beat the dogs in the water? Many people like it, and it's very interesting."

"Further digging out Donnie's black material and nailing him to the pillar of shame?" Megan put his hands down from his chest and handed his left hand into the pocket of women's trousers. He looked at Hawke seriously for the first time.

Apart from being strong, people look ordinary in other aspects.

Then Megan stretched out his right hand: "Megan Taylor."

Hawke shook her hands again: "Hawke Osmon."

Megan picked up a pen, tore off a sticky note, wrote a string of numbers on it, and handed it to Hawke: "This is my mobile phone number. If there is news, you can call me, provided that it is a heavyweight news."

Hawke took it, "I will."

Megan ordered Claire again: "In my name, apply for a special correspondent certificate for Channel 11 for Hawke, and go now."

Claire goes to call.

Hawke said kindly: "Thank you."

Megan was very curious about why Hawke could take these news, but she didn't ask a question. She only had the explosive news, and she didn't care about how the news came about.

An assistant came over to copy the video, and Hawke took it himself, and he was worried about handing the notebook in these people.

The bottom line of Fox's media is lower than that of mines. More than ten minutes later, after a program was completed, Hawke received a check of $100,000 and a special correspondent certificate from Channel 11.

Megan's side has already started a program production conference in the office.

When the two videos were played, she directly defined: "The tone of the video shooting is too obvious, and the program uses this as the tone. Everyone immediately launched the resources in their hands to dig deep into Robert Downey Jr.'s black material, he cannot be silent and shadowed. Leaving this world, I need Donnie’s death and contribute to the ratings of the show!”

Meghan arranged his work in an orderly manner according to his previous ideas.

On the other side, Hawke left Fox Building and drove towards the studio.

Just thinking about LAPD, the phone rang.

Hawke connected, and there was a familiar voice across from him: "Hello, Mr. Osmon, I am Officer Julian of the West Division of Los Angeles. We've seen him in the afternoon and you left me a business card."

Hawke was prepared and said, "Yes, we met on Santa Monica Avenue in the afternoon."

Julian said: "We need to consult you in the afternoon case."

Hawke tentatively said, "You can come to my studio at 13 Fountain Street, East Hollywood."

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

Julian hesitated for a moment, but quickly said, "We'll rush over now."

Hawke felt the danger was small: "I'll turn off the work later first and wait for you to come."

With the equipment bag on his back and locked the car, Hawke entered the studio.

He simply sorted out the room and found the Glock pistol, hiding it where he could easily get it.

Cash and other things were also packed into a bag.

Hawke waited for a while and there was a knock on the door outside.

He looked at the surveillance first, there were only three people outside.

The front one was wearing a patrol uniform, Hawke had met in the afternoon, Julian was called.

The two people behind, the older man was a police inspector, and the female police officer who followed him was a sheriff.

Frank, sitting on the roof of the RV across the street from the Fountain, looked at the West Coast Studio curiously.

It is not a good thing for three LAPDs to come.

Frank took a sip of beer and frowned and said, "It's just opened and it's about to close? Young people are so wild."

In the studio, Hawke gave up his seat, Julian introduced the two sides, the police inspector was Edmund and the sheriff was Suzy.

Edmund asked, "I heard you are a journalist."

"Yes." Hawke took out the press certificate he had just obtained and placed it in front of him.

Edmund saw Fox Channel 11 and asked, "Did you leave the contact information of Police Julian?"

Hawke was prepared: "Yes, I am a reporter and very sensitive to public opinion. The dead person is a star. Julian and another police officer may face public criticism. And I watched the whole process of the incident. I don't think they are at fault, my work ethics and sense of justice will not allow me to sit and watch the situation worsen."

Susie responded: "This is also something we are worried about, so we are here to find you."

Edmund asked, “Can we watch the video?”

Hawke turned his notebook and asked them to watch the video they shot.

The attitude of the three shows LAPD's position.

This is consistent with what Hawke expected.

Edmund seriously seems that the most troublesome thing about this matter is that Donnie is a celebrity. If he is an ordinary person, even if the media hypes it for a while, there is no way to deal with LAPD.

At most, the female patrol police will be suspended for a period of time.

Now, Old Donnie is jumping with some people, causing trouble for LAPD.

On the contrary, Donny's wife Deborah doesn't care.

These people are not donors to LAPD, and they even have deep grudges on both sides. LAPD dealt with Donnie three times in a row, leaving him in prison for nearly three years.

For the fourth time, Donnie received a summoning from God.

The attitude of the headquarters Parker Center is very clear, so we need to find tangible evidence, crucify Downey, and completely define the case.
