The police arrived quickly, and the rest of the matter was naturally handled by the police, there were many witnesses in the lounge, plus the surveillance footage, the whole incident was clear and clear, and the biggest doubt was Eddie Law's motives, after all, Chris Kyle and Chad Littlefield were the ones who wanted to help him.

It didn't take long for the police to take notes on people, including Matthew and Margot Robbie, and had Chris Kyle's wounds temporarily treated.

Chris Kyle had several brushes with death on the battlefield in Iraq, and this time Lady Luck still favored him, and his ears were just scrapes caused by the scorching air currents of bullets.

To be exact, the second bullet fired by Eddie Rouse didn't hit Chris Kyle at all.

Matthew also considers himself to be the one who is favored by Lady Luck, and at such a close distance, he is really lucky to be able to escape from the gunpoint in the face of a crazy veteran who has killed an unknown number of people.

Coming out of the room where the transcription had been done, Matthew found that Helen Herman had rushed over.

"Hell," said Helen Herman, in a low voice, "how do you always encounter these things?"

She grumbled and asked, "Aren't you hurt?"

"I'm fine. Matthew didn't take her complaint to heart either, "The guy was going to kill Chris Kyle and Chad Littlefield, and I was out of luck." ”

The door to the other room opened, and Margot Robbie walked out, but she was obviously not treated as well as Matthew, and the agent didn't come.

Matthew gestured to Margot Robbie with his eyes and said, "I'm going to say hello, this person just saved me." ”

Helen Herman saw Margot Robbie walking towards this direction and asked first, "What's going on?" ”

"This Australian chick is so tough, she smashed the crazy veteran to his knees. Matthew spoke very quickly, and then met Margot Robbie, who came over, and said, "Well, they didn't embarrass you, did they?"

Margot Robbie shook her head slightly, "No, I just talked about it." ”

Helen Herman went to the police and asked, came over and said, "Okay, we can go now." ”

Matthew looked at Margot Robbie, "You came by car?" Seeing Margot Robbie nodding, he asked again, "Can you still drive? Why don't you take my car with you?" You leave the car here, and I'll have someone from the club send it to you in the evening." ”

Margot Robbie thought for a moment and said, "It should be fine, don't bother so much." ”

Matthew nodded, not reluctantly, and went to look at Chris Kyle again, the veteran was in a bad mood, the pain of losing a friend was tormenting him, Matthew didn't know how to comfort Chris Kyle, fortunately, Taya Kyle had already rushed over.

He said a few words to Chris Kyle and Taya Kyle, then left.

Taya Kyle whispers to him, and then takes Chris Kyle to a psychiatrist.

The aftermath of the war has always affected Chris Kyle.

Matthew couldn't do anything about it and soon came out of the shooting club with Helen Herman and Margot Robbie.

The incident was still a short time ago, and it was still in a tightly managed closed environment, and the media didn't seem to have been informed yet, and no reporters were seen outside.

Margot Robbie said goodbye to Matthew and drove away alone.

Matthew didn't drive and threw the car keys to the club's people and let them take them to Horner Manor, where they were immediately in Helen Herman's car.

"Are you going to see a psychiatrist?" Helen Herman asked the driver to drive, "do you need it?"

"No, I don't. Matthew got into the car, threw all the aftermath of the catastrophe behind him, and said directly, "Helen, since this has happened, let's get ready." ”

He thought about it for a while, and then said, "You are responsible for communicating with the press officer of the crew, as well as the news media, I will call Niebora and ask him to get a surveillance video for you, you have a good time to release it, I want this incident to make "American Sniper" attract more people's attention." ”

Things can't be reversed, but they can be put to good use.

Helen Herman added, "When the news is in flux, I will call a press conference." Also, in your name, I am openly looking for donations to charitable organizations that help veterans. ”

Matthew nodded, "You communicate directly with Amanda." ”

There is no objection to these, he still has this vision, and now he is donating money so that "American Sniper" can make more money.

"That Margot Robbie's name sounds familiar?" Helen Herman asked suddenly.

"An Australian actor, starlet. Matthew said simply, "She's waiting for me at the shooting range today, and wants to fight me for the opportunity to play Taya Kyle in "American Sniper." ”

Helen Herman said, "It is not ordinary to dare to take the initiative to attack a thug with a gun, and I may not dare to do so." ”

Hearing this, Matthew deliberately asked, "You're not going to die on me, are you?" ”

"Not necessarily. Helen Herman said lightly, "Didn't you tell me that nothing is more important than your own life." ”

Matthew was momentarily speechless, and then thought of Margot Robbie, the Australian actress who is really brave.

Back at Horner Manor, Matthew immediately asked the audition director of the "American Sniper" crew for the video of Margot Robbie's first audition.

Immediately, he called Clint Eastwood.

Although the heroine can be decided by him, Matthew still said hello to Clint Eastwood in advance, after all, respect is mutual.

After watching the video of his first audition, Clint Eastwood called back to say he fully agreed.

Matthew didn't inform Margot Robbie for the time being, and he didn't have Margot Robbie's contact information, and the accident happened today so quickly that he didn't have time to ask for it.

This kind of thing, he threw it to Helen Herman again, Margot Robbie is also a small star, with Helen Herman's ability, it is not difficult to find her agent or economic company.

In the afternoon of the same day, Helen Herman met with Elena Boyard, and then news about the shooting began to appear on the Internet, and the first media to report it were basically Helen Herman's contact, and the position was naturally biased towards Matthew.

The police also confirmed the authenticity of the incident and called a small press briefing that night.

The next day, Helen Herman held a press conference on behalf of Matthew, and the media was in an uproar, but the subsequent coverage was still biased in Matthew's favor.

"Matthew Horner and Chris Kyle were attacked by gunmen and the two teamed up to subdue the mob!"

News like this is flooding the media, and quite a few of them mention Margot Robbie's name, which is also what Matthew had Helen Herman intentionally do.

During the press conference, Helen Herman highlighted the Australian actress.

This is also a small reward for helping her, and it is also good for the crew, Matthew has decided to use Margot Robbie as the heroine of "American Sniper".

Just like the Burbank drug dealer shooting at the beginning, this time the media was also very hot, and "American Sniper" won the attention of countless people.

Again, this has once again aroused the attention of society to the issue of veterans.

The United States has done a very bad job in the follow-up of veterans, and then it has caused a lot of problems, and it feels like it is too big to take care of it.

The social psychology of normal people is balanced, far from blood and cruelty, and this balance is completely overturned in war.

The media in North America was so strong that it even got a face-to-face interview with Eddie Laws.

It was also after watching this interview that Matthew knew how serious Eddie Laws' psychological problems were.

Eddie Law's meaning in the interview is very simple, and it can be summed up as: he was unemployed after the war and felt that life was meaningless, and he thought that he was a loser after the war had taken everything from him;

In other words, whatever Chris Kyle and Chad Littlefield did, Eddie Laws took it as a mockery of his now lost life.

The psychological trauma caused by the war deserves sympathy, but there is no right to kill people casually.

Moreover, he also threatened Matthew's personal safety.

He's not the only one with the psychological trauma of war, Chris Kyle is too.

But Chris Kyle chose a completely different approach, and the psychiatrist told him that trying to help others would alleviate his condition, and he was almost killed by the person he helped.

No other Matthew can handle it, this Eddie Rolls doesn't want to get out of prison again for the rest of his life.

There are also tabloids that have messed up with the news, such as a tabloid interview with Eddie Laws's sister, who she said was doing this because Chris Kyle and Chad Littlefield had been sending messages mocking him.

But where the message was and what the content was, she couldn't come up with any evidence.

There is no need to distinguish between truth and falsehood in this matter, if mocking a person costs with their lives, then all keyboard warriors will die.

Matthew did not distract himself from this matter and continued to prepare for "American Sniper", after Helen Herman contacted Margot Robbie's agent, Bella Anderson quickly got the actor contract with Margot Robbie, for an actress of Margot Robbie's level, opportunity is more important than pay.

The project "American Sniper" attracted much attention, and it was not until mid-October that the film officially started shooting in the desert valley of Southern California.
