Volume 2 1999 Chapter 92 The Self-cultivation of the Bait
"Click!"
Hartman pressed the shutter, turned back and asked the black man, "What did you say?"
The black man said: "When will I say when this drudgery will end? It's not what you said at the beginning. ”
Hartman buttoned up the lens cap and said helplessly, "I didn't expect it either." Benjamin Franklin said, 'No animal is more industrious than the ant, yet it is the most taciturn.' But this boy is not only more diligent than the ants, but he is not at all silent......
Hartman flipped through the small notebook full of messy handwriting and said, "Not counting the day he came, it's only been three days now, but look at how many things he has done and how many people he has met......"
Blacks don't have to look to know what names are written on them, and most of them are big people that ordinary people don't have the chance to see in their lifetimes.
Briefly talk about Li Yuan's itinerary in the past three days.
On the first day, he visited Heim Greenberg with Zhao, Paris and Chen Chen, a consulate worker, and met Mrs. Zuckerberg and his son Mark, before finalizing a plan to develop a chat software.
In the afternoon, the three men went to Pace University, where they recruited a few helpers for Mark, and Li Yuan even gave an impromptu lecture in the software engineering department, although it was only less than twenty minutes, but it was impossible to imagine where he got the confidence.
That night, after dinner, Li Yuan returned to New York, and then used Haim's connections to meet with Shirley Sandberg, and the two sides talked until nearly twelve o'clock. In the words of the waiter that Hartman bribed, Li Yuan intended to recruit Shirley. Judging by the expressions on both sides before parting, Shirley was clearly convinced, and perhaps it would not be long before she heard the news of her departure from the Treasury office.
Early the next morning, Li Yuan, Zhao, Paris and Nicole went to Donald's modeling agency (tmanagement) together.
Hartman later contacted a model who had a good relationship with him in the company, and she heard her say that Li Yuan should have met the billionaire who was not doing his job, but the process seemed to have happened a little unpleasantly, and he did not stay at TM for long.
After leaving the modeling agency, a man and three women went to a high-end kaiseki restaurant that only accepts advance reservations, so no one knows what happened to them inside. Of course, those arrogant Japanese waiters will not betray customers for a little favor.
This incident is just a small episode, what happened after the meal is what makes Hartmann the most painful these guys actually start shopping!
As we all know, shopping with women has always been the biggest headache for men. Even so, the person accompanying him could still be distracted, but the person who followed him could not, and had to be so engrossed in his gaze that for a few hours, Hartman's leg was about to break.
The only thing to be happy about happened on the first night, when a woman claiming to be a reporter from Vanity Fair approached Li Yuan, who was talking to Shirley, and asked for an interview, which was denied.
The thought of this makes Hartman feel very funny. I don't know what that fool Smith thinks, doesn't he know that the most taboo thing for the children of politicians from these red countries is to make remarks in public channels?
The female reporter failed to do so, but her actions reminded Hartman that she was going to follow anyway, so why not go back to her old job?
If you can't do a public interview, then take a secret photo, refuse to publish it in the newspaper, then find a gossip tabloid, I believe that many people will be interested in a love affair between a man and a woman in a foreign country.
In fact, it is.
Just last night, Hartman's "intimate photos" of Li Yuan and Paris were sold
share, money and goods, Tong Su is not bullied.
Thinking of those green bills, Hartman couldn't help but sigh.
It's a pity......
Today is the third day, Li Yuan did not meet Paris, not even his inseparable little girlfriend did not appear, and the only woman named Chen Chen in the consulate accompanied him was by his side.
This will not be of interest to American readers.
The black man asked, "What do you say they're talking about?"
Hartman looked through the floor-to-ceiling window of the fast-food restaurant at the Rolls-Royce parked on the side of the road, shook his head, and said, "The hell knows what they're talking about." That bastard changed cars every day, and he didn't even have a chance to install a bug, and he knew he should have had a lip language expert from above. ”
"The experts won't take on this kind of tiring work, I said, they've been shopping for a day, right?
"Maybe it's just a bad mood, who knows......"
……
"I've always wanted to ask, what the hell do you want to do?"
Chen Chen threw a few newspapers to Li Yuan, who was sitting in the back seat.
Li Yuan flipped through it, and the more famous ones were the New York World and the New York Daily News.
The New York newspaper industry is very developed, the most famous are the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal, and compared with these two newspapers, the newspapers that Chen Chen threw to Li Yuan are less famous.
A small reputation does not mean that sales are poor, and the New York Daily News, for example, has long ranked first in the New York newspaper industry in terms of circulation due to its emphasis on entertainment and its extensive use of pictures.
If you say it well, it's called pastime, and if you don't say it well, it's gossip.
Ordinary people are obviously more concerned with lace news than serious news.
For example, this newspaper uses ambiguous headlines and pictures to convey a message to readers in a conspicuous layout and position
Paris Hilton broke out in a new relationship, and her boyfriend is actually a Chinese!
"How's the sales?"
Li Yuan read it with relish, and I have to say that every article is well written, and none of the gimmicks have been missed.
Of course, there is no shortage of speculation.
For example, Li Yuan's identity. Probably someone said hello, or the newspaper editor didn't know at all, in short, Li Yuan's identity was "guessed" and "supposed". Of course, it is not without boldness and carefulness, such as "Le Monde", which almost said that Li Yuan is the grandson of so-and-so. I don't say it directly, but it hints very obviously, I'm afraid the reason for not directly naming it is to satisfy the reader's reasoning pleasure.
Some make a big fuss about Li Yuan's identity, while others focus on the relationship between the two.
For example, one of the newspapers I had never heard of, Paris stayed overnight in her boyfriend's room...... With a photo in the hallway of the hotel, it looks quite like that.
"The photos are good. ”
Li Yuan smiled and threw the newspaper aside.
Chen Chen said angrily: "Are you still laughing? Do you know that this is a smear on the face of the country!"
"There is no report of a real hammer, and everyone will forget about it when they have seen it, and compared with Bilton's trouser zipper, this matter is far behind. ”
……
The peachy scandal between current U.S. President Bilton and White House intern Monica is also known as the zippergate incident.
Now a year has passed since the zipper door was exposed, and the incident has still not subsided.
About half a month ago, the US Senate formally filed impeachment against Bilton, and the results of the impeachment will be available by the middle of next month at the latest.
Today, the world's mainstream media is
If impeachment passes, Bilton will become the second U.S. president to step down due to a scandal after Nixon.
Li Yuan knew that Bilton was lucky to escape in the end, but others didn't know, besides, even if he was as lucky as Andrew Johnson, he would still become the third US president to be impeached.
Compared to this kind of major event that may affect the global situation, Li Yuan and Paris's lace news is indeed not worth mentioning.
……
"What the hell are you thinking?"
Chen Chen frowned and asked, "You shouldn't have been a temporary idea to go shopping yesterday afternoon, judging from the photo perspective, it seems that you are still cooperating with that photographer?"
"yes. ”
Li Yuan admitted: "I did it on purpose. ”
"Why?"
"For fishing. Li Yuan said: "Have you heard of "The Self-cultivation of Actors"? As bait, you should also talk about self-cultivation. The guy we are looking for does not know where it is for the time being, but I think he should read the newspaper, especially if there is a Chinese news in the newspaper, he will definitely care, right? Coupled with the speculative identity in the newspaper, he is likely to take the initiative to contact me. ”
"You're thinking too simply, aren't you? Besides, how can you be sure he'll contact you?"
"If you don't do anything, nothing will happen. Li Yuan said lightly and continued: "That person's speculative psychology is very heavy, if he has the opportunity to contact someone who has the right to speak in China, he will not miss the opportunity." However, he is also very vigilant, and if we take the initiative to find the door, the other party will think that it is a trap. Of course, I also know that this is a big luck, so I have to hurry up on the other side. ”
Chen Chen knew what Li Yuan was referring to on the other side.
"Huang Xiaofu's side, someone has already contacted him, at present, he should be able to be trusted, in order to avoid attracting the attention of people who are interested, you should not contact him for the time being, let alone take the initiative to contact Huace. ”
"I know, I'll leave this matter to you. ”
"Where do you go next?"
"That's for you. I'm a 'man who had an awkward fall out with his girlfriend', where do you think I should vent more convincingly?"
……
If you want to vent your frustration, the bar is a good place to go, and if you add some grumpy music, the effect is even better.
CBGB is such a good place to go.
CBGB is a rock club founded in the seventies, the golden age of American rock and roll.
Unlike many bars and clubs that like to invite well-known bands to the town, CBGB invites most of the bands that have not yet become famous and no record company is willing to sign with them.
Unconventional, radical, and avant-garde, this is the core business philosophy of CBGB, which has made it popular among young people and even the center of punk music.
……
When Li Yuan came to CBGB, the time was half past five in the afternoon.
It's Monday, no one will come here during the day, and it won't really come until after 8 p.m.
Li Yuan stood under the iconic awning at the entrance of the club, waiting for Chen Chen to park the car before walking in together.
Inside the door is a staircase corridor that is not too spacious, but extends downward.
Li Yuan lowered his head and walked down, and was suddenly hit, and almost stepped on the air under his feet, and finally supported the wall to stand firm.
The man who hit him also stopped at the foot of several steps.
She turned, looked up, and asked, "Hey, are you okay?"
