"So, the paparazzi hiding on the opposite side, you don't know either?"

"What...... What ......"

Melissa was frightened, and almost jumped up directly, moving her eyes up and down left and right in panic, forcing herself to calm down, but it was really not an easy task, her voice began to tremble slightly, she had to clench her fists, and stood up suddenly, "Paparazzi? What? Where are the paparazzi?"

In a flash of light, Melissa made a decision, the survival book/energy burst out with a huge amount of energy, regardless of her embarrassment, after standing up, Melissa looked at Lan Li with a nervous face again, "What happened just now was recorded by the paparazzi, will they have any misunderstanding?" I can explain to them, it was just a misunderstanding, I accidentally fell down myself." ”

The subtext is that she doesn't know anything about the paparazzi, even if there is a paparazzi, it must be because of Lan Li, after all, Lan Li is the focus of attention in the whole of North America, and she is exposed to the paparazzi's camera all the time.

Quick-witted, maybe Melissa is not smart, but at this time she still shows a little quick-witted, and under the crisis situation, she has stimulated her potential, and her performance at this time is much more realistic than before.

However, even if Lan Li didn't see through the trick before, Melissa can't fool it now: the performance is too pompous, as if it is the way of performing in a high school stage play. It's no wonder that Melissa was able to play the leading role in "Supergirl" on C TV later, she is indeed very suitable for teenage idol dramas, and now she can capture some clues.

"Are you sure?" Lan Li said meaningfully, "Are you sure you don't know that there is a paparazzi hiding in a corner of the building across the street? Are you sure you don't know that his shooting angle is exactly the back of the front and back, which is very easy to create a misalignment effect? Are you sure you don't know that the paparazzi is hiding now?"

Melissa froze in place, the words of denial had already rushed to her throat, but under the gaze of Lan Li's eyes, she couldn't make a sound at all.

"You know what? The paparazzi who wait at my door every day never hide their figures, because they need a better shooting angle, they are here to wait for the rabbit, so why hide? Do you know? The paparazzi who wait at my door every day know very well that I won't have any news during the shooting, and they don't even want to wait here?"

Lan Li is not a personality who likes to explain, because facts are facts, and sooner or later the truth will be revealed, and at the same time, he does not enjoy the process of forcing the other party into a corner with facts, and it is really unnecessary to be aggressive.

But at this moment, Lan Li listed all the facts in a fifteen-ten manner, which really made Melissa embarrassed, as if she had met the stylist Melvin Braders on the Upper East Side in order to attend the Emmy Awards. Truly firing on fire, anyone familiar with Lan Li knows that Melissa has touched his bottom line.

Melissa fell into an ice cellar.

Lan Li didn't pay any attention to it, and turned his head and shouted in the opposite direction, "That gentleman, please come out, while we can still talk calmly, please come out, otherwise, even if you don't come out now, in the future, after you sell the photos, I will always know the source." Or are you going to hide the fruits of today's labor forever and never see the light of day?"

Damn it!

John's back was against the wall, his right fist slammed down on the wall, and he cursed viciously, "Damn it!"

Although he had already guessed that things would not go too smoothly, who knew that it was really unfortunate that he was so simply recognized!

John is at war between heaven and man, to go out?

After hesitating, John remembered a quote from his colleague and friend Joey Murphy: I personally think that Lan Li is actually a very talkative candid subject. He never deliberately dodges, as long as we can stick to the bottom line, he is the best person to get along with and talk to.

In the end, John decided to trust Joey for once.

So, John stood up, left his shelter, pushed open the door, and exposed himself to the sun, and walked step by step towards the direction where Lan Li and Melissa were.

The paparazzi actually appeared!

The paparazzi actually appeared like this!

Melissa was on the verge of collapse, constantly glaring at John, and constantly looking at Lan Li's face, in the torment, she didn't know what to do, she tried to speak several times, but she was worried that she might say the wrong thing, and it might be self-defeating, just between hesitation and struggle, John had come to the front of the two people.

Lan Li collected her chin meaningfully, "It turns out that you are really hiding there." ”

"What?" Melissa was stunned.

"What?" John was stunned, and then John stammered, "But...... Just now...... You...... You don't know...... That...... What's going on......"

Lan Li showed a big smile, "It's just a matter of trying your luck." I just noticed something that vaguely looked like a shot, right next to the flower pot, but couldn't quite confirm it, so I shouted and gave it a try. "Lan Li is not Sherlock Holmes, how can he know everything in every detail?

John opened his mouth, "Then I'm ...... now Do you want to deliver it to your door?"

Lan Li pursed the corners of her lips, looking relaxed and freehand.

John was stunned and annoyed, obviously because of Melissa's panic just now, after forcing John to stand up, when he hid again, his figure and camera were not completely hidden, which was only recognized, otherwise, his disguise would not have been discovered at all!

But now regret is no longer helpful, John still quickly calms down, and dealing with the situation in front of him is the first priority.

Two thoughts were surging in John's mind: should he choose to continue to the end and publish the photos as planned, Melissa would still have the upper hand, and Lan Li might also fall into a dilemma, or should he choose to send a friendly signal and use these photos as a bargaining chip to establish a good relationship with Lan Li?

Melissa? Or Lan Li?

This is not a difficult choice, John opened the camera in his hand, took out the memory card inside, and took the initiative to hand it over, "You can accept it, and today's incident will be treated as if it never happened." ”

"You!" Melissa took half a step forward and looked at John in disbelief, there was no dialogue, no negotiation, not even confrontation, and the other party actually broke the contract like this?

John didn't care, "I'll get it back." Regarding the failure of this mission, I will also take the initiative to take responsibility, and you can hype it up as much as you want. "The paparazzi took over the candid shooting task, but it turned out to be messed up, which still has an impact on the reputation, but in John's opinion, if you can get on the line with Lan Li, then nothing else matters.

"I ......" Melissa still tried to say something, she didn't care about the cost and reputation at all, what she needed was the result, even if Lan Li had already seen through it, she still hoped that this time the plan could be completed, and exposure was the most important thing.

But before the words could be spoken, Lan Li, who was standing next to him, spoke, "No, you can keep it." ”

Refused?

Actually refused!

Melissa and John both looked at Lan Li with surprised faces, and couldn't believe their ears - there had been so many accidents today that their brains couldn't handle it.

Why?

"Today's photo, you can publish. Whether it's the truth or a lie, I don't care too much. Lan Li said lightly, after the anger calmed down, he had now regained his composure, and his brain was spinning rapidly.

In fact, after the news is announced, whether it is according to Melissa thinks, or honestly announcing the truth of the matter, for Lan Li, the impact is really limited, whether it is public opinion or rumors in the industry, Lan Li doesn't care, he doesn't even bother to explain and clarify-

After experiencing the "hypegate" incident, Lan Li has gradually become immune to such things.

What Lan Li is really worried about is the "Burst Drummer".

If there is a related news now, or even negative news, it is easy for people to blur the focus, especially for independent films, and it is very likely to affect the filming of Damien Chazelle and the entire crew, and even the future release and distribution work.

In Lan Li's eyes, a Melissa Benoist is not as good as a "Burst Drummer".

Therefore, the focus of Lan Li has never been on himself or Melissa.

"But we can make a deal. Lan Li then said, which made John's right hand holding the memory card stop in mid-air, and looked over with curiosity on his face, "I tell you an important piece of information, you can keep the memory card, the only requirement is to wait for the 'Burst Drummer' to be finished before it is announced, as for how to announce it, what content, it is completely up to you." ”

But how to respond, that's Lan Li's business.

Even if Lan Li didn't say this, John knew it, he put his fingers together, and said with a smile, "Deal." ”

John didn't ask what the news was, nor did he measure whether the value of the news was fair, and for him, establishing a personal relationship with Lan Li was the best bargaining chip.

If you are a really smart person, you can simply destroy the memory card neatly at this time, and take the lead in expressing your sincerity before Lan Li really shows her trading chips, which is the smart choice.

Such a thought had flashed through John's mind, but he was not a hero after all—otherwise he would not have accepted Melissa's invitation today, after all, he still couldn't give up the petty profits in his hands, and the idea was quickly extinguished, and he still held the memory card firmly in the palm of his hand.

"John, you...... You can't do this!We've already said it, you can't do this!" Melissa finally found her voice, and watched everything in amazement, Lan Li didn't even use any effort, just two words, to completely turn the situation around, so what should she do? What else could she do now?

It's not fair. It's not fair!
