Chapter 714

When Gail gado finished, the living room became quiet. When Gail gado was just 18 years old, Murphy chased her. They had been together for nearly 10 years. They knew each other very well, and they could guess each other's intention without saying anything.

In fact, Murphy has always been very clear, for Diego - Ross thing, fiancee heart always have opinions, just see he did not go too far, never say it.

Gail gado, after all, is a law student and is more cautious.

But with their status and status, caution is not a bad thing.

"So it is." Murphy took Gail gado's face and gave her a kiss on the forehead. "Thank you, honey."

Gail gado smiles and says nothing. Murphy clearly understands what she means.

Of course, Murphy knows that this is not a lawless primitive society.

This is a society where there are rules. Breaking the rules is likely to attract punishment. He once swam through the most marginal position of the rules and knew the risks. That time, he had no choice but to take risks. Since then, he has never taken such risks.

Some people may think that he is cowardly, but this kind of thing really has nothing to do with cowardice, but with the mind.

When you have nothing, you can fight with everything; when you have capital, the so-called fight will be limited within the scope of the rules.

This is the simplest truth.

The reporters besieged at the gate of wave manor did not disperse because the owner did not show up. There was a great momentum that Murphy would never give up until he could interview.

After two days of fermentation, more and more media began to rely on the identity and motivation of the murderer to "dark city". Affected by the shooting, the North American box office of the film also had a big shock for a short time. On the second day of the shooting, it only got less than two million dollars a day, creating a new era since its release Low.

In the following two days, the North American box office of "dark city" was always hovering at a little more than $1 million. It seems that the shooting of China Grand Theater in Hollywood overdrawn all the energy of "dark city" in advance.

In addition, the society and the media denounce the shooters and show infinite sympathy for the injured.

Three days after the shooting, Los Angeles police held the first news conference on the case, officially disclosing a lot of information to the outside world, as well as the latest progress of the case.

Murphy has been paying close attention to the shooting of China Grand Theater in Hollywood, and also watched the police press conference live on CNN news.

The information disclosed by the police at the news conference was almost the same as what he had obtained before.

After three days of investigation, the Los Angeles police confirmed that the red baseball cap was the key to the case, and determined that the red baseball cap, because of its Catholic identity, was dissatisfied with Murphy's "Diego Ross" and spread news unfavorable to Murphy everywhere, which may be the motive of the shooter's murder.

On the other hand, they confirmed that the shooter is likely to be Murphy or a big fan of "dark city", which is supported by the colorful magic ball left at the scene and "I am the agent of chaos".

The most important aspect of the pursuit of the murderer is that the police have not yet caught anyone, but have announced to the media the possible identity of the shooter, a bloated white man with short and medium black hair, about 5 feet 11 inches tall!

With the Los Angeles Police holding a press conference to confirm some of the circumstances of the case, Murphy has ended his brief seclusion in the manor, and 20th century fox has relevant meetings to attend.

But Murphy didn't want to be disturbed by the reporters, so he rented a helicopter, picked him up on the tarmac inside the manor, and flew directly to the fox building. There was also a tarmac on the top floor of the building, so he could easily get rid of the reporters' siege.

"It seems necessary for us to buy a helicopter, too."

As soon as the helicopter took off, Murphy said to Gail gado, "it's much cleaner."

"Is it really pure?" Gail gado pointed out and the engine roared. "It's a little noisy."

At the gate of wave manor, many reporters watched a helicopter landing behind the white villa, and could hear the noise from the engine.

"Who is this?" A reporter asked curiously, "come and visit Murphy Stanton at this time? Or by helicopter? "

Another reporter was wide eyed, "no, he's going to run!"

Other people suddenly realized that it wasn't long before they saw the helicopter take off and fly towards century city.

"It's nice to have money." A reporter can't help but envy, "go to century city so close to the place can also do helicopter!"

Century City and wave manor are not far away from Beverly Hills.

The reporter next to him helped his eyes. "Murphy Stanton is hiding from us!"

"What can we do to hide?" Another reporter said, "can you fly up there? Can you chase it? "The first reporter pointed directly at the helicopter that had not disappeared. "Is it great to have money? There are a few stinky money, so show off... "

No matter what the reporters said, they could only watch Murphy leave. Some smart people guessed that Murphy went to Century City, or fox building, or Death Star building where CAA was, and quickly chased him.

By the time they got to Century City, Murphy was already sitting in the conference room of 20th century fox.

"The current situation is very bad for us. Many media have planted it in the city of darkness."

In the conference room, Kara Firth looked serious and said, "the city of darkness was so smooth before the incident. Although the media were singing praises before the incident, there are so many people who hope we have bad luck. At this time, I'm afraid many people will step on us."

"A lot of media have done that." Bill rosis took over the topic and said, "a number of newspapers are attacking" dark city "and Murphy, saying that their unlimited film violence is the root cause of the shooting."

Although Murphy didn't speak much, it is clear that this kind of case under the banner of magician does not remind people of "dark city" is a strange thing, and the current public opinion can be said to be a very normal situation.

"The shooting of China Grand Theater in Hollywood has affected the box office trend of dark city!" Carla Firth continued, "in the last three days, the box office in North America continued to decline, and the audience was obviously negatively affected by public opinion and events."

The murderer of the shooting may be an admirer of the magician. The case also happened before the screening of "city of darkness", which will inevitably affect the viewing choice of some fans.

If this happens, it will not affect the film. It is impossible.

Everyone here, including Murphy, knows that.

Carla Firth added, "I've already said hello to the company. Fox's media will fully cooperate with us and properly guide public opinion."

Murphy nodded. "I think I can direct this shooting to personal behavior."

"Yes." Carla Firth agrees, "not every violent incident imitating a movie comes from a movie. It's all individuals who have problems!"

It is not difficult for the news media and people like them to open their eyes and tell lies.

Since Carla Firth met Murphy at wave manor that night, fox formulated relevant publicity and public relations strategies and started crisis public relations.

"One more thing." Bill rosis reminded, "no matter what the motive of the murderer is, the shooting took place in front of the movie theater that is about to show" dark city ". Among the dead and injured, there are those who are going to watch" dark city "at the China Grand Theater in Hollywood. We should also take action, especially for the dead and injured."

"These things..." Murphy volunteered, "leave it to me."

He, the director or other stars in the film, is the best person to visit and comfort the injured.

"Let a couple of stars go with you." Carla Firth suggested.

Murphy thought for a moment. "James had better not show up at this time."

James Franco is facing more pressure than his film director.

"So..." Murphy said to his agent, "bill, you say hello to Maggie and ask her to go to the hospital with me and gado, and Henry Carville."

"Maggie, no problem." Bill - rossis is also Margot - Robbie's agent, he thought, "Henry - Carville in Africa filming, I guess not back."

"Well, I'll go with gado and Maggie." Murphy immediately made a decision, "you should communicate with the police and the hospital as soon as possible, unite with our media partners, and see when we can pass."

Bill rosis nodded. "No problem."

Now that things have come to this stage, avoiding is not the way at all. It can only be resolved as far as possible. Moreover, shooting cases are not a big deal in this country. There are always some incidents every year.

The meeting soon dispersed, and everyone prepared for their own work. Murphy got on the helicopter again. He knew very well that the box office in North America, which was originally in a good situation, would be dragged down.

Meanwhile, in a small office building in the beach area of Santa Monica, Archbishop Marcos Costello, who had just arrived from the Vatican, was watching a video of the Los Angeles Police press conference on the shooting of the Chinese Grand Theater in Hollywood.

He did not expect that he went to the Vatican, Los Angeles had such a favorable situation.

"Have you investigated?" Archbishop Marcos Costello turned off the TV and asked the assistant who stood aside, "make sure that man is a devout Catholic."

The assistant said firmly, "very sure! He not only goes to church regularly every week, but also defends the church on the Internet many times and attacks Murphy Stanton. "

Archbishop Marquez Costello stood up and paced his office. "It's a good chance to fight back."
