Chapter 17 Black and White
"The documentary plan has been formulated and will be broadcast on Channel 6 first."
In the driving Audi car, Carafes and Murphy were driving, talking about their recent work, "If the response is good enough, we will push it into the video tape and disc market."
"It sounds pretty good." Murphy leaned against the co-pilot, and the combined suit made him feel a little awkward. "Time doesn't wait for anyone. If all the black people disperse, the attractiveness of the documentary will also decrease."
Kara gave a thumbs up at this side, "Your news acumen is getting higher and higher."
"Thank you." Murphy replied casually, "It's all learned from you."
Since the media has never given up on hype about this news incident, coupled with the black people's super sensitive glass heart, although it has been a while since the original incident, the black protests in the Los Angeles area have not dissipated, but have begun to spread to surrounding areas, and even some human rights organizations have joined in.
The two black people are criminals, but criminals also need human rights. The so-called human rights organizations are good at picking their bones in the eggs, especially those who die as black people.
The media is also adding fuel to the fire, fearing that the news will not be big enough, and keep mentioning that if the target is a white man, will the police still shoot in the end?
This incident has a tendency to become a focus of society across the United States. The human rights issue about blacks has been pushed to the forefront by the media with ulterior motives. Unlike the praises he received during the mass shooting of North Hollywood robbery two years ago, the Los Angeles police have been under tremendous pressure, and even several police officers involved in the roundup were forced to take leave.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing Murphy in the co-pilot thinking, Cara couldn't help asking, "Are you guilty?"
The two of them can be said to be the fuse of this incident, and it was them who opened this Pandora's box.
However, Kara never regretted it. She has been pursuing big news that can cause sensation across the United States. The effect of this incident is exactly what she hopes to see most.
As for the methods used in the middle, Kara, who has been engaged in journalism for many years, is very clear about which hot news is not behind?
"Dear, you're kidding." Murphy looked like he didn't understand what Carra was saying, "What have we done?"
Even when driving, Kara couldn't help but turn her head to look at Murphy, and Murphy said calmly, "The continuous protests in front of the Los Angeles City Hall and the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department are caused by improper handling of the Los Angeles police and psychological sensitivity of black people. What does it have to do with us?"
Hearing this, Kara Fis couldn't help laughing, "It really has nothing to do with us."
She turned her head to look at Murphy again, and saw that the tough side face was extremely calm, as if what she had just said was undeniable facts.
"What are you looking at?" Murphy asked, turning his head.
Kara shrugged, "You are still very handsome,"
There has never been a person who can make her feel so in line with her spleen and stomach.
Audi left the city and drove onto the Avenue leading to Santa Monica. Kara passed an intersection and suddenly thought of something else, "You have made a lot of money recently, why can't you bear to change yourself to a new car? Your Ford should be scrapped."
"It's good to open."
It was because the Ford was too broken that Murphy got into Cara's car, "Every dollar I have is of great use and can't be spent casually."
Kara recalled some of the things Murphy said and asked, "Are you really going to leave this industry?"
"Yeah." Murphy nodded, "It shouldn't be too long."
"What a pity, you are very suitable for this industry." Kara showed some regretful expression. In the past month, it can be said that she has the fastest growth stage in her career, and this is all because of this guy in the co-pilot, "Do you have any plans?"
She had a certain understanding of Murphy and knew that without any idea, he would never act easily.
"Of course, I may need your help at that time." Murphy paused, looked at the straight road ahead, and finally said, "I want to go to Hollywood to shoot and make a movie."
“What?”
After subconsciously asking this, Kara suddenly laughed, "You... are you going to shoot a movie, Murphy, are you kidding?"
Murphy shook his head seriously, "Of course not."
"How could you have such an idea?" Kara turned her head and looked at him again, her eyes full of incredible, "You must be crazy and want to enter a completely unfamiliar industry."
Speaking of this, she suddenly became stronger, "I almost forgot that you were a lunatic."
"Thanks."
This was not the first time such words jumped out of her mouth, and Murphy didn't mind, but said, "You know me the most."
Indeed, if you don’t have any qualifications or connections, you want to go to Hollywood to make movies, which is not much different from being a lunatic.
But Murphy has always told herself that there was a lunatic who used to throw away the job of an engineer and did not do it. She came to Los Angeles to be a director. In the end, she was a great success. Not only did she win the Oscar for Best Director Xiao Jinren, but she also became the "king of the world" who dominated the box office of a single movie!
Yes, he can't compare with a real genius like James Cameron, but he is still willing to try it out.
Now he is only twenty-one years old, but he is just an adult in the legal sense. Even if he fails, he has enough time and energy to find another way to go again.
Audi sedan gradually entered the range of Santa Monica, and Kara drove directly towards the villa area by the sea.
"No wonder you suggested that the TV station produce documentaries." She seemed to have figured out a lot of things, "It turns out that I had the idea of entering the film industry long ago."
The car was parked near a luxury villa. Kara parked the car on the side of the road, asked Murphy to get out and walked towards the villa.
Murphy followed, "You look particularly beautiful today."
Kara wore a short dress with a skirt corner above her knees, fully leveraging the visual beauty brought by her long legs. The close-fitting design of the dress also highlighted her graceful figure. With her delicate face and floral blonde hair, just in terms of appearance and temperament, she is definitely no less than those Hollywood actresses Murphy’s impression.
"Thank you." Cara glanced at Murphy in a well-fitting suit, tall and strong, and her strong temperament seemed to emanate from her bones. She couldn't help but praise, "You look good too."
After saying that, she also teased her while walking, "If you fail to enter Hollywood in the future, you can turn to the San Fernando Valley. I believe the directors there will definitely be interest in you."
Murphy shrugged, but said nothing.
Carafes naturally put his hands in the bend of his arms next to him. Murphy turned his head and looked at it. The woman in high heels was almost as tall as him, looking as if she stood out.
Murphy was not used to these Western etiquettes, but he could always adapt to them. He walked into the door of the villa with Cara Fais, followed the direction pointed by the staff, and headed towards the back garden facing the sea of the villa.
Many people walked by nearby, and there were vaguely familiar faces. Murphy couldn't remember it for a moment, but the former Murphy was just a poor free reporter. Now the ones that made him feel familiar should be some famous figures.
From this point of view, the party that Carla Fis took him to is not low.
"what's on your mind?"
Ignoring the man who looked like a pervert next to him, Kara approached a little and whispered, "I want to make the plan the consequences of failure? Don't worry, if you can't make it in the future, my door will always be open to you."
The tone of this statement seemed to be unintentional, but Murphy could hear some sincerity. Such a woman could say such words enough to show her recognition of herself.
"I will." Murphy suddenly thought of what Ross said and whispered, "By the way, a friend mentioned to me today that the victims and murderers of Bill Road's case may be drug dealers."
"What?" Kara Fis turned to look over, "The news is reliable?"
"It's reliable." Murphy shrugged, "He's seen them before."
Kara frowned, "What kind of friends are you making?"
Murphy slowed down a little, "I met comrades who fought side by side in prison before."
Hearing this, Cara Fais remembered that he was holding a man with a criminal record and could not help but slow down.
She was born rich, well-educated, with a decent and unlimited potential, and was not from the same world as Murphy whom she was holding.
But... what this person has never shown is that kind of vulgar little person.
Cara shook her head slightly, no longer thinking about this, and walked into the party with Murphy in her arms.
This is an amazing party, with venues including the entire back garden and a private beach, which is tens of thousands of square feet. What Murphy saw with his eyes was all about dressed up, with hundreds of people. The beach near the beach is also dozens of bikini girls specially hired by his owners.
Cara Fais was able to come here more because of the TV station behind him. Not many people knew, and most of the people introduced to Murphy were unfamiliar with Murphy.
However, Murphy still greeted them politely. He could not contact such a circle at all. This was a good opportunity to expand his connections.
Of course, Murphy would not say that he was a freelance journalist. In Cara Fais' introduction, he was the chairman and president of Stanton Studio.
No one doubts or is surprised. There are countless studios like this in Los Angeles, the city of media and entertainment.
But these people would not have thought that from management to employees, Murphy was actually the only one in Stanton Studio.
Following Kara Fiss at the party, the two walked to the resting place by the beach and were about to order something to sit down and have a drink. At this time, a black man suddenly came over.
"Hello, beautiful lady."
This black man is very tall, "Can you invite you to have a drink together?"
He seemed to be attracted by Cara Fais's outstanding appearance and completely ignored Murphy next to him.
