"Bang! Bang... " Gunshots rang out one after another, just struggling to get up from the blood man who jumped out of the dazzling flowers, and finally tilted to the ground, several police carefully around the past. This is the end of the video on the screen. In the No.1 editing room of channel 6, Carla takes a deep breath. Her excited eyes have already turned into inconceivable, as if Columbus had discovered the new world. "You can all go." Carla said to the others nearby, "you go out first." She turned her head and looked at Murphy sitting next to her. "I''m totally shocked! Great shot! I can''t find the right words to describe this video. " Murphy also turned to look at her, "thank you." "It''s wonderful." Carla seems to be still intoxicated in the shock of the video, "this is the news effect I have been pursuing!" "Thank you." Murphy said politely. "No, Murphy, don''t say thank you." Carla shook her head. "I''m the one to say thank you. I want to thank you for bringing it to me." "That''s very kind of you." Murphy reached out and patted Carla on the arm. "We''re friends, aren''t we?" Carla took Murphy''s hand in her backhand and made no secret of her desire in her eyes. "This video must be mine, it must be!" Since he came here first, of course, Kara was Murphy''s first choice. He asked, "honey, how much are you willing to pay?" The previous words are just words. If the price is not suitable, Murphy will not sell it to Kara and channel 6. The last news video has greatly boosted the audience rating of the program. Carla knows what sensational effect the video in front of her can cause and says, "you tell me what price it should be." Murphy is not polite, "100000 dollars." It''s rare to see such a real police bandit gunfight, as well as videos of people killed by gunshots, blood flying and serial car chases and crashes. Kara just pondered for a few seconds and said, "I can give you the price, but the video should be shown to my superior as long as he doesn''t have any opinions." What do commercial TV stations need? As a result, there was no accident at all. After watching the video, Carla''s boss not only agreed to the price of 100000 US dollars, but also promised Murphy that Fox Los Angeles local station would help him solve some police and legal problems, so as to avoid the court injunction as much as possible, so that the two sides could continue to dig into the story behind the case. To put it bluntly, if the TV station can agree to the conditions behind, it also understands that once the news video of this case is broadcast, it will certainly arouse wide attention, and the investigation of subsequent events will bring more viewers to the TV station. Like Murphy, the TV station won''t do anything good. "Send the video and my text plan to the studio." When Kara and Murphy leave the video room tomorrow, they can cash another $100000 Murphy looked at the cash check in his hand and said with emotion, "this is the most money I make." "One hundred thousand dollars!" Karala came to a chair and sat down next to Murphy. "Save some money." "It''s a huge sum of money for me, and it will be of a lot of use." Murphy put away the check and looked at Carla. "People like you don''t understand how hard it is for us to make money." How can you understand the hardship of a person of his background, who graduated from a famous university and became the head of the news department of a TV station at the age of 26. Kara was silent for a moment. She had seen many people coming out of the slum, but she was the first one who worked so hard like Murphy. She appreciates people who work hard and keep going for the future. "You should get yourself a lawyer." No matter for what purpose, the other party can send the video here first, it is a great help for her. Kara rarely has a conscience and says, "the police will give you a lot of trouble in the back." Although Murphy said that she had not photographed two murderers before, Kara can guess a lot now. "I already have a lawyer." Murphy laughed. "And I''m doing my duty as a good citizen." Carla turned her eyes directly. If the people opposite were all good citizens of Los Angeles, the two murderers who died could be rated as honorary citizens of Los Angeles. When someone knocked on the door of the editing room, a middle-aged man pushed the door and came in, "Kara, do you really want to play these videos on the show? In the way you set it up? " "That''s right." Carla put away her smile and looked over. "What''s the problem?" "You are provoking racial antagonism by doing so!" The middle-aged man approached and stressed, "this may cause a series of social problems."Carla didn''t even think, "that''s what I want." "What?" Middle aged people can''t seem to believe their ears. "You''re creating chaos through the news." "Manufacturing? Isn''t it true that the white police shot a black man without any resistance? " Carla stressed again, "it''s something no one can deny." Hearing this, even Murphy had to look at Carla with admiration. He didn''t think of this. The black man who died in the end didn''t seem to be a threat at all. The white police still shot him Compared with Carla, I''m far worse in news sense! Murphy also fully understood why Kara and the TV station were willing to accept the $100000 price and provide assistance when necessary. Compared with what they paid, this video can bring them too much. As for whether this will lead to racial antagonism, who cares? They are eager for this situation, so that there will be enough eye-catching news. "We''re in journalism." Carla stares at the editor and says solemnly, "we have to pursue higher things!" The editor was dumb and opened his mouth, but he didn''t say anything at last. Under the pressure of kalajian''s sharp eyes, he slowly left the editing room. "That''s great." When the door of the newsroom closed, Murphy stood up and said, "we can''t stick to the present. We should pursue further and higher." Carla caught something and asked, "do you have any more ideas?" "Yes, this video can bring us more." Murphy walked back and forth for a few steps. "We can make a series of feature shows with a special emphasis on black suspects and white policemen..." Murphy is very clear about what kind of contradictions these two can stimulate. "Follow this direction to report, and then find out and broadcast the past news in this aspect, so as to enhance the news effect. When the timeliness of the news is weakened, it can also be made into a documentary." "Good idea!" Carla''s eyes are brighter. Murphy cautioned, "if you want to do this, you have to avoid the press injunction of the court." "This kind of news ban will not happen." Carla seemed confident. "Don''t forget, channel 6 belongs to Fox network!" Rupert Murdoch''s Fox TV network has how much energy, Murphy is not very clear, but know very big. As if they had met their life confidants, they stayed in the first editorial room and had a heated discussion on all kinds of follow-up possibilities. Kara and Murphy, one for fame, the other for profit, can be described as a hit. It''s getting closer to 6 a.m. and the morning news is about to be broadcast. Murphy follows Kara and walks into the editing hall behind the scenes. Now he can be regarded as a familiar customer of this TV station, and generally no one will stop him. When the news was about to be broadcast, without Murphy and Kara''s expectation, the police followed the clues all the way to this side. "Who''s in charge here?" It was the middle-aged male detective who asked Murphy last time that led the team here. "We''re from the serious crime unit of the Los Angeles police department." "It''s not allowed to point to the police and show them all, including the copies on the screen," he said the majestic looking middle-aged police has the final say. Murphy and Carla look at each other and make a please sign. "What are you going to do?" Carla walked over quickly. "I''m the director of information department. You can come to me if you have any questions." "I ask you to take these gunfights and chase cars..." The middle-aged detective pointed to the screen again, "collect them all, no more playing, these are..." "I''m sorry," he was interrupted by Carla before he finished. "This is the property of channel 6." "It''s criminal evidence!" The middle-aged detective stares at Carla. Carla is not moved. "What evidence? This is our news Carla''s attitude is very tough. The female detective next to the middle-aged detective said in a timely manner, "now there are two policemen dying in the hospital, four dead, 11 injured, and a large number of violent and vicious crimes. These are extremely important evidence." However, Kara is not moved, arms embrace chest, "this is the news that TV station must broadcast." "You are not allowed to play it!" The middle-aged detective roared. "Do you want to interfere with press freedom?" Carla looked at the middle-aged detective and said calmly, "if you want to take these, if you want to ban the TV station, you can." She said word by word, "please show me the injunction of the court!" "You..." Middle aged detectives don''t seem to know what to say. Kara said to the security guard who followed the police in, "the program is about to start. Please let the irrelevant people out." Then she said to the two detectives, "if you have any questions, our legal department will contact you. That''s it. I have work to do. Thank you."After all, this is the media department, and the police dare not do anything more, so they have no choice but to leave for a while, watching Murphy''s video appear on the morning news of channel 6, becoming the social focus of public discussion in Los Angeles. At the end of the news broadcast, Murphy asked the security personnel at the door and went to Carla. "There are police outside. It looks like I''m going to the police station." "Don''t forget to contact your lawyer." Carla reminds me. [it''s going to be 515 soon. I hope it will continue to hit the red envelope list of 515. On May 15, the red envelope rain will be able to give back to readers and publicity works. A piece of love, certainly better! 】
