"Lan Li?"

"Lan Li!"

The paparazzi were a little stunned, and there was a brief silence at the scene, which seemed strange and wonderful, but it was just a fleeting blink of an eye, and there was a panicked call behind them, breaking the deadlock, and exploding like thunder on the ground, and all the paparazzi suddenly turned their heads in unison.

Then I saw Nathan in a hurry, as well as Roy Lockley, Paul Walker, Ryan Gosling, Rooney Mara, Damien Chazelle, Melissa Benoist, JK Simmons, etc., bustling with a large group of people, like big furry tails, appearing in front of them.

Paul and Nathan rushed to the front, menacing and unstoppable, and collided head-on with the paparazzi at the first time.

The situation at the scene was a bit complicated and chaotic, and the paparazzi had not yet fully recovered from the turbulent emotions just now, nor could they understand the situation, so they could only react reflexively: some people directly stepped back and got out of the way, while others took the initiative to step forward and formed a head-on confrontation with Paul, Nathan and others.

The scene suddenly became even more chaotic, and Paul couldn't believe his eyes, "Are you crazy? Get out of the way, get out of the way!" He even clenched his fists, and burst out like a brute bull with a powerful impact, rampaging through the crowd, and the dense crowd was instantly knocked apart.

The others who followed also stepped forward one after another, and continued to move forward through the surging crowd, and soon broke through the encirclement, entered the center of the crowd, and found Lan Li, who was sweating profusely and had a face like gold paper.

"God, Lan Li, Lan Li, what's wrong with you? Jesus Christ, what have you done? Lan Li, wake up, Lan Li!"

"What the hell is wrong with you? Stand back, hurry back, Lan Li needs some fresh air!

"Get out of here! you guys! Hell, get out of here!"

"Nathan, call 911, hurry, call 911, we need an ambulance, we need an ambulance here. ”

"Lan Li, Lan Li, are you okay? Lan Li!"

There was a panicked call, and the scene immediately fell into another kind of panic.

Most of the paparazzi were scared at first, and only then did they realize what kind of consequences their actions had just caused, not to mention how many aftermaths this incident would cause, just talking about the potential revenge from Lan Li in the future was enough to make people tremble, looking down at their hands, and inexplicably began to wipe their palms, as if their hands were already covered with blood.

It turns out that "killing" is such a feeling.

A small number of paparazzi are frantically getting more and more excited, this is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, whether it is the confrontation between Lan Li and the paparazzi falling to the downside, or the Lan Li who was chased and intercepted by Lan Li is in trouble, this is definitely an absolute explosion point worth a thousand gold, how can they easily miss it? So, the flash began to light up.

They even deliberately aimed the flash at the eyes of Paul and Ryan and others, stinging their pupils with the flash, in such a chaotic situation, trying to provoke Lan Li's friends and make them fight, if Paul did wave his fist, it would be the event of the year.

Entertain to death.

At this moment, the mystery of entertainment to death in the 21st century Internet age is vividly displayed, life is not important, what matters is the news hype gimmick behind the loss of life or injury, and the interests represented by these gimmicks. What's more, it's just a mere Blue Rite-Hall?

"You executioners! What have you done? Are you crazy? You crazy reporters, haven't you seen Lan Li's bad state? Except for the explosion point or the explosion point, are you going to drive Lan Li crazy and send him to the magpie's nest before you are willing? Look, look, this is what you do, God, do you still have a conscience? You are still real journalists? You are all a bunch of crazy people!"

Paul's emotions were out of control, and he threw his fist at a reporter, but Ryan hugged Paul in time at the pinch, and kept shouting in Paul's ear, "Calm down, Paul, calm down." ”

"Let go of me!" Paul was struggling hard, foaming at the mouth and screaming, "They're a bunch of crazy people! What did they force Lan Li to? They just wanted to kill Lan Li! They were a bunch of executioners!

Paul had never seen anything like this before.

The impression of Paul, he always has a bright smile, low-key and humble, refuses hype, has no ambition, is satisfied, he is a person who knows how to be satisfied and knows how to be happy, maybe he is not perfect, but in the midst of the disturbances of Vanity Fair, he is always like a breeze in March, fresh and pleasant.

Paul in front of him lost his mind, he couldn't believe the group of people in front of him, even though Lan Li had fallen apart, even if the scene was already chaotic, they were still waiting for an opportunity to find news gimmicks, since they wanted to break the news, then Paul let them get what they wanted, and teach them a good lesson!

"Paul, Lanli, Lanli needs us!" Ryan is trying his best to keep the situation from getting worse, he doesn't know if he did the right thing, but he only knows that Lanli needs them now, "Paul, Lanli doesn't look good, he really doesn't look good. ”

As he spoke, Ryan didn't even notice it, his voice trembled slightly, and then he began to be scared with uncontrollable fear, he didn't even know what he was afraid of, he just couldn't help but panic.

Paul finally calmed down a little, and instead of waving his fists or struggling any longer, he just yelled at the paparazzi in front of him, "Get out! Get out of here!"

The flashing lights, still flickering brightly, truly record Paul's madness, Ryan's excitement and the chaos of the scene.

How ridiculous, how ridiculous, how ironic.

Even so, the paparazzi still didn't give up, and some even broke through further, focusing the camera on Lan Li, who was huddled in the corner with a bloodless face, and quickly pressed the shutter, eager to record the rare grand scene in front of them - just now everyone was concentrating on attacking with questions, and they actually forgot to take pictures.

Now is the time.

One started first, and then the other started, and even the small number of paparazzi who couldn't bear it realized that they must not miss this scene, otherwise, they will regret it. Driven by interests, driven by professional instincts/abilities, they also flocked together again and pressed the shutter one after another.

The flashes came back and forth again.

Paul, who had just been buffered by his emotions, clenched his fists again, but this time Ryan took the lead, let Paul go, and stepped forward with an arrow, "He/fuck/all get out of here!"

Without restraint, Ryan and Paul both raised their fists and sprinted towards the paparazzi, the powerful momentum of the tiger coming down the mountain did not hesitate at all, it can be seen that they are not joking, which suddenly startled the paparazzi, and they all began to retreat like birds and beasts.

At the same time, their camera is aimed at Ryan and Paul, as if they were the victims, documenting the evil deeds of the "abuser".

The whole scene is extremely chaotic, but in the chaos, the flashing lights are still flashing one after another, constantly flashing around, although Ryan and Paul are doing their best to expel the reporters, and Nathan, Simmons and others are also helping, but in the end, it is still difficult to beat the four hands, and the pervasive paparazzi still have the initiative on the scene.

But what is even more absurd and helpless is that the onlookers on the other side of the street also took out their mobile phones, or took pictures or videos, recorded the whole scene with their own cameras, and couldn't wait to upload it to social networking platforms, sharing the excitement of this moment with their "fans".

No one called the police, and no one stopped them.

This is the essence of fast food culture in the 21st century:

Even if it's a fire, even if it's a disaster, even if it's death, the first reaction is always to record it with a mobile phone, the second reaction is always to share it, any emergency time can be postponed, etc., and the "I'm on the spot" type of sub-items is the most important - sadness, sadness, pain, joy, happiness, emotion, tribulation, etc., all can be shared.

That's what real entertainment is like to death.

……

The whole scene is evolving into a complete disaster, and the chaos that has been rushed forward and behind has no sign of subsiding, not only has it not calmed down, but it is also becoming more and more intense, and the crowd of onlookers is coming to watch one after another, and the truth of the matter has gradually become blurred between word of mouth.

Some people say that Lan Li was injured, some people say that Lan Li beat someone, and some people say that Lan Li was beaten. Others said that the crew and reporters had a conflict.

The rumors did not affect the interest at all, but mobilized the gossip of all passers-by, so the scene began to become more and more chaotic.

Quiet 57th Street is one of the most artsy neighborhoods on Manhattan Island, with galleries, theaters, coffee houses, bars, dance studios, art galleries, concert halls and other buildings that make it one of the favorite places for middle-class and literary youth.

The name "Blue Rite-Hall" is attractive enough, and when the words "Blue Rite" and "conflict" collide, the situation starts to go crazy, at first it just spreads in the neighborhood, but as the situation is flagged on Twitter and Instagram, the number of people grows and grows.

Gradually, things started to get out of hand, and the cars on the streets were forced to slow down, creating a traffic jam before they knew it, which also made the scene even more chaotic.

And in the chaos, the paparazzi are quietly retreating, as if they have nothing to do with the chaos in front of them.
