Chapter 140: Thank Him

Before Leila could speak, she heard a few sparse boos from the audience.

There were a lot of young people here, and not all of them could hear Cooper's words, otherwise I believe that the boos would blow off the roof of the studio hall like the applause just now.

"Yes, I believe Mr. Cooper has been of great help to me. ”

Just when everyone thought that Leila would be sarcastic, she gave a surprising answer. Not only the audience, but also Aureli and Cooper froze.

"Yes, yes? That's great, can you see what kind of help he's given you?" He's been hosting the show since '96, and it's the first time he's felt this way.

Leila smiled faintly at the audience before looking at Cooper: "If it weren't for Mr. Cooper, I don't think S would have the box office now." Everyone wanted to know too much about what a movie could make a bet between directors and critics look like, so they all went to the cinema. ”

"Haha. The audience erupted in laughter and applause. I don't know how many people walked into the cinema out of curiosity, Director Moran said it was too reasonable, but it was also too interesting. Isn't it just Cooper who defeated himself?

Cooper's face darkened instantly. He had already thought about this during the film's screening, knowing that his desperate attempt to discredit the film during that time was actually helping the film to make a name for itself. It's just that at that time, he was already difficult to ride a tiger, and even if he was quiet later, it was too late.

Leila laughed twice before nodding to Cooper, "I think I have to thank Mr. Cooper for his help. ”

"Yes, that's right. "It's to thank him. There was even louder laughter in the audience.

Aureli saw that Cooper's face was about to be darker than the donkey's black ass, and he had to come out to play a round in order to save what little sanity he had left.

"I see, Hollywood is such a magical place, who would have thought that there would be such an outcome before the bets began?" he said with a smile, and the smile suddenly froze at the corner of his mouth for a second.

No one had expected such an outcome, but what if she had thought of it a long time ago? What if she had the idea of using Cooper to make the movie box office high in the first place?

Aureli was frightened by his imagination, but when he thought about it, he felt that he was worrying about it. In his mind, an R-rated low-budget horror film dares to bet with a box office of 100 million, no matter how you look at it, it is a performance of being carried away.

Even super-notch directors like Spielberg and George Lucas wouldn't dare to say that they could do the same thing, right?

It should all be just a coincidence!

It must be so!

Aureth took a deep breath and felt that he was in too bad shape for today's show. Again and again, he scared himself, and he didn't even grasp the rhythm of the show, which is really not like his usual appearance.

At this moment, the black and white donkey brought to the stage by Cooper suddenly barked, as if to remind people not to forget its existence.

Aureli looked at the donkey and smiled, "It seems that my other protagonist also wants some applause." ”

"Boom. The audience laughed and clapped their hands. It's so much fun to see a donkey in the live broadcast room! It hasn't happened before, has it?

"Alright, since our other protagonist has expressed his displeasure, let me ask Cooper. Cooper, are you really determined to make the deal?"

"Yes. Cooper was quick to pick it up, and admitted it almost without hesitation.

O'Reilly continued to ask according to their "script": "You should know that our show is for the whole of the United States, as long as you fulfill your bet here, it means that the whole of the United States will see it, and even spread it to the whole world with the Internet, do you really have the courage to complete the bet in front of the whole world's audience?"

Cooper's heart was weeping, he had the courage of a yarn, and he hadn't been kicked in the head by a donkey! But no matter how bitter and tired his heart was, he could only think about it if he wanted to escape from this damn quagmire.

So his face was calm, as if he had thought deeply, and nodded solemnly: "Yes." ”

"Whew. Aureli exhaled, "What shall I say, you are a ......" Before he could say the words "courage", a voice interrupted his attempt to brag about Cooper.

"Wait a minute, please. ”

No one else interrupted him, it was none other than Leila, who had been sitting on the sofa "honestly".

"Uh, what's the problem?" Aureli asked, though a little upset at her interruption. Interrupting someone is not what a lady or lady should do, and he may be able to target her on this point later.

Layla lowered her eyes and moved her gaze to her knees, a simple gesture that gave the impression that she was repenting. But what did she need to repent?

"Before Mr. Cooper speaks, I have something I want to say. I'm sorry to interrupt Mr. Aureli, but if I don't say it now, I don't think I'll have a chance to say it in a moment. ”

Aurelie's keen instincts told him that he shouldn't be given a chance to speak, especially since she had chosen the timing too well, even if it was a second late, if he could get Cooper's virtues of "honesty and integrity" out of the way, and the whole thing would go in the direction they had predetermined.

However, she was interrupted at such a critical time, and there was no longer such a good chance to follow what she just said without a trace. And he always felt that what she was going to say next could have irreparable effects, and unfortunately he had no right to refuse, at least not in this environment called freedom.

Aureli glanced at Cooper, who didn't have the slightest sense of crisis, but instead looked like "just say it if you want, don't blame us for not giving you a chance", and suddenly felt a little excited. Can such a stupid person really benefit their cooperation? Is it really necessary to let him help out?

"Anything can be said, and I don't think Mr. Cooper will refuse. He could only pretend to be a happy welcome and let her speak freely. He didn't bother to remind Cooper, anyway, as long as the ratings came up, it didn't matter if he didn't help Cooper. The upper echelons will not reprimand him for this, after all, it is not that he doesn't want to help, but that his teammates are too uncompetitive.

"Of course, if you have anything to say, just say it. Cooper replied. Although he was angry that his rhythm was interrupted, he really didn't take her to heart when it came to Leila. A little girl is just what wisdom can compare with him?
