Chapter 128： Garcia

Garcia Rodríguez, a Hispanic, to be more precise, a Hispanic, a man who has just turned twenty-six this year.

parked the rented motorcycle in a free space on the side of the road. He habitually found a hidden corner and sat down.

Taking out the cold hamburger from his bag, Garcia took a bite. If it weren’t for the prey that he was reluctant to give up, lunch would not be delayed until now. His stomach was groaning with hunger, even if he had something in his hand. Burgers are a popular commodity, but at this time they feel particularly sweet.

It is not easy to survive in the Los Angeles area! It is not easy to be a Latin American descendant who is more discriminated against than black people! Although every day here is chanting freedom, equality, and anti-discrimination, Garcia is very clear that these are just chants. Hidden discrimination is everywhere in this society. If it is not for his blood relationship, he will be reduced to a position. Paparazzi?

That's right! Garcia is a journalist, or a paparazzi for an entertainment tabloid. The newspaper he works for is called the Los Angeles Liberty, which has just been established and is a typical newspaper that sells celebrity privacy and entertainment gossip.

After devouring the burger, Garcia checked his telephoto camera. This is the most valuable thing in his body.

The newspaper was not long after its establishment, and its influence and sales were limited. The treatment of employees was naturally not much better. Newcomers like Garcia had extremely limited fixed salaries. It was very simple to get the income to support yourself! Get enough photos and news.

This is Los Angeles. As long as you can catch a big fish and dig out some exclusive news from the other party, the bonus will allow him to eat and drink for a month.

For example, Nicole Kidman, if she can be photographed shopping with a man, and a little intimate action, such a photo can be sold for a big price.

After all, everyone knows that apart from a few unreliable scandals with Tom Cruise a few years ago, this glamorous Australian woman seems to be insulated from men.

Of course, now the two have become enemies, and their hatred is higher than the sky...

He sighed, if it wasn't for life, he wouldn't be this **** paparazzi. Think about his dignified background in the SEAL team, a well-known investigator, and he has fallen to where he is today. I really don’t know if it is. My own fault is still the fault of society.

Originally, after being retired by the army, he wanted to find a job like bodyguard and **** by virtue of his skills, but several companies he found heard he was Latino, and he was rejected by the army because of his mistakes. Outside.

No matter how strong a person is, he can't resist the pressure of life. He has to apply some of the things learned by the army into practice and become a glorious paparazzi.

Don’t even look at him as a newcomer, but his eyes and intuition are extremely keen. He just came to Sunset Boulevard today and was waiting for a traffic light at an intersection. He caught the figure of Drew Barrymore in a car, subconsciously. Followed.

He knows the destination where the other party arrived, but...what is she doing here, shopping? Or dating someone?

Before long, Garcia saw Ryan Jenkins walking out of a taxi carrying a backpack and wearing sunglasses. Obviously he had been dressed up, but for his former military player, This disguise is too pediatric.

Quickly looking for a good angle, Garcia raised the camera, constantly adjusted the telephoto lens, and observed the situation on the opposite side. When he saw a pair of small hands covering Ryan Jenkins' eyes, he began to press the camera's shutter rhythmically. , Snapped a picture.

Oh~ It seems that these two people are still good friends.

Garcia thought subconsciously, but he kept capturing images that he thought was valuable.

Couldn't... They are really in love with siblings, right?

At the beginning of the year, there was a very, very outrageous scandal between these two people. It is a good time to take pictures of these two people. Besides, Ryan Jenkins has been very simple recently, and few people have photographed him outside. Figure.

As for the scandal between the two, as long as they are not fools, no one will take it seriously. Who doesn’t know that Tao Lu Barrymore likes pranks. If you show off with her, you can be regarded as a couple. Then this guy’s lover can be from Sunset Boulevard. Arrange to Los Angeles City Hall.

Besides, Ryan Jenkins is not yet thirteen years old...Well, I had my first girlfriend when I was twelve.

He shook his head. The two people on the opposite side looked like friends. It was obvious that it was Drew Barrymore who was messing around.

There was a warning sign in his heart, and Garcia quickly hid. From the corner of his eye, he caught the glance that the boy had scanned, and he couldn't help sighing about his keen intuition.

However, he thought he was not comparable to ordinary paparazzi. When he saw the two turning around and walking towards a coffee shop, he raised the camera again and followed carefully.

When they walked into the store, Garcia put the camera in his shoulder bag, arranged his clothes against the glass of the doors and windows, and then opened the door and walked in.

Here is Sunset Boulevard, star reporter paparazzi are everywhere. Among them, paparazzi are the most unpopular. Many regular restaurants refuse paparazzi entry. Fortunately, Garcia looks nothing like paparazzi and entered the store smoothly. .

He just glanced at the shop, he caught the young couple, took a newspaper, quickly found a suitable place, ordered a cup of coffee, took out a small camera and put it on the table, using Under the cover of the newspaper, gently pressing the shutter.

what is that? file holder? Garcia kept sweeping the other side with the corner of her eye, just in time to see Ryan Jenkins handing a thick file bag to Drew Barrymore. She opened it and turned it over, then put it back. It looked like It should be a script.

Drew Barrymore looked at it with a smile, and unexpectedly... Is she going to kiss Ryan Jenkins? Garcia saw that Ryan pushed a baby face back without hesitation, and he was secretly relieved for some reason.

How can a bad girl like Drew Barrymore be worthy of a young genius like Ryan Jenkins! This was the only thought in his mind at that moment.

Withdrawing his gaze, he glanced at the shop again. There were not many people, and it was obvious that there should be no other reporters and paparazzi. This should be exclusive, right? Still an exclusive about Ryan Jenkins!

Some time ago, people in the circle were rumored that Ryan wrote a script to Drew. Now it seems to be finished. He also gave the script to Drew. This is a piece of valuable news!

It would be better if you knew the name and subject matter of the script! Nowadays, who doesn’t know that the script written by Ryan Jenkins has become a box office guarantee. Now that he has got this exclusive, the editor-in-chief will at least write a four-digit check, right?

Seeing Ryan Jenkins turning around without hesitation, and Garcia understood that the two were just acquaintances, at most ordinary friends.

Today is a great harvest. The work can be ended early. Riding on the rented motorcycle, García Rodríguez returned to the newspaper, said hello to the editor, and went into the darkroom. He wanted to take the photos by himself. Wash it out.

He can't worry about giving it to others. The competition in this line is extremely fierce. He is a Latino rookie, and he is squeezed out by his colleagues. God knows whether those guys will mess things up or steal his exclusives.

The busy day came very late. The sky outside was already dark, and the newspapers were still brightly lit. Many colleagues were sorting out photos taken during the day and writing manuscripts. Looking at pictures and speaking is one of the most basic qualities of this line. Does it conform to the facts...

Well, history has been distorted from the moment it happened! Garcia didn't remember where he came from this sentence, but it fits their profession.

Looking at the photos one after another, Garcia couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. The ones captured from Sunset Boulevard were normal, but the ones from the coffee shop were different. It was probably a matter of angle. There were a few... …Especially the scene where Drew Barrymore wanted to kiss Ryan Jenkins, but was blocked by his hand, it seemed like he was kissing directly on the face.

What's the matter? Garcia was typing on the typewriter. After all, he was a newcomer paparazzi, and still had a conscience. He subconsciously ignored these ambiguous photos and put his pen and ink on the file bag that should be the script.

When it comes to tracking, finding people, snapping, and analyzing things, Garcia, who was born in the SEALs, is a good player, but he is not very good at dancing, writing, and so on. He has been busy until midnight, a dry manuscript. It's just finished writing.

If a senior expert read his article, he would definitely curse that he is not suitable for this line of food. The manuscript is not only dry without water, but also mostly the facts he has seen. There is not much exaggeration, gossip and gossip. Waiting for the public favorite to see the bridge section is even a brief pass.

As expected, after the article was handed over to the editor in chief, if it weren’t for the news about Ryan Jenkins’s new script, the manuscript would definitely be killed by this veteran in the gossip industry.

"Any photos?" the editor-in-chief asked Garcia.

"Yes!" Garcia took a stack of photos and handed them to the editor-in-chief The editor-in-chief only flipped through a few of them, and his eyes were as wide as the bison of Montana, and he grabbed the manuscript. Pulling Garcia to the editor-in-chief's room, the speed was so fast that Garcia, who was a soldier, secretly smacked his tongue.

"Boss! Boss! Big news! Big news! Big news that can make our newspaper a hit!" The editor-in-chief broke into the editor-in-chief's office without knocking the door.

The editor-in-chief of 　　 was a bit angry, but after turning over the pile of photos, the corners of his mouth were almost grinning, "Who took this? Beautifully done! I want to give him a raise!"

"It's me." Garcia stood up.

"Good job, keep working hard!" The editor-in-chief patted his shoulder vigorously, and then threw the manuscript he wrote into the trash can. "The manuscript is written too badly. No one cares about the script. We should Focus on the relationship between two people, so let me write this news myself."

After speaking, the editor-in-chief took out the checkbook, filled in a number on it, and handed it to Garcia.

"You deserve it, you know, tomorrow our newspaper will make a sensation throughout Los Angeles, no! It's all California, all North America!" The editor-in-chief was as excited as some crazy terrorists that Garcia had ever seen.

After receiving the check, Garcia's eyes lit up, twenty thousand dollars! Twenty thousand dollars!

Maybe I should follow Ryan Jenkins in the future? He is so valuable! He is simply synonymous with money and status!

Yes it is! What Garcia wants is not only money, but also status, so that his Latino can stand up!
