After the operation, media reporters continued to come to harass him, hoping to know about Gawain's condition as soon as possible. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 The enthusiasm of info sports reporters is not inferior to that of entertaining paparazzi, especially the appearance of Lance, which adds fuel to the fire, after sports reporters, entertainment reporters have also come to join in the fun, it is simply everywhere.
Not only Lance, but even the attending doctor was surrounded by reporters, and even the news of Lance's plan to hire a professional nurse was known to reporters. Reporters are like lingering flies, always gathering downstairs in the hospital, holding a posture of not giving up until the goal is achieved, which is annoying.
Lance called Dorothy directly, hired twenty security guards, coaxed all the reporters out, and if anyone did not want to leave, he threw them out without hesitation, an action supported by the hospital side, and all the reporters were kicked out in less than half an hour.
However, the official reporters of the NFL have not given up their efforts, and as the official representatives of the league, they need to be the first to know the state of the athletes, and then report on it. The three official reporters first came to the door directly, and after being refused, they came to the door through Green Bay Packer and Gawain's agent, relying on their power to get first-hand information, but they were beaten out by Lance again.
Opening the door, Lance saw Gawain's agent, Drew-Rosehaus, a well-known agent in the NFL who has been in the industry for 16 years and is the top agent in the industry, and he has always had a good relationship with Gawain, and the two have been working together for more than a decade.
Before Drew could speak, Lance saw Jeff-Darlington standing not far away, the official reporter of the NFL, he had just driven away a group of so-called official reporters, and now he was actually here again! Lance frowned, took a step forward to Drew's side, and said in a low voice, "Let me remind you, I said that no reporters are allowed to interview, which means any reporter!" ”
Drew grabbed Lance's right hand, but was glared at by Lance's fierce eyes, he raised his hands to express peace, but there was no pause in his words, "Lance, you care about Gawain, I also care about Gawain, we are not enemies." I just think people are definitely concerned about Gawain and we need to tell everyone that reassuring those fans that blocking the news is not the right thing to do. So, since you have to tell everyone, why not go through official channels? Avoid other misunderstandings, and also avoid other guesswork. ”
Lance looked at Drew quietly and didn't speak, just when Drew thought he had persuaded Lance, a mocking smile appeared on the corner of Lance's mouth, "Drew, how many years have you known Gawain?" Thirteen years? Or fourteen years? If I'm not mistaken, when you signed with Gawain, you were just a small agent with no name. If you really care about Gawain, just like me, then you should know that what Gawain needs most now is recuperation, and he needs a relaxed space to recuperate; Then you should be on the same side as me and tell the vampires, 'Gawain needs to recuperate!' Let them all go back to the coffin that will not see the light of day', then you should not take the benefits of that journalist, you should not worry about building a good relationship with the so-called league officials, for the benefit of your other athletes, and you should not pull in those inconsequential outsiders! ”
Drew opened his mouth, as if he wanted to defend himself, but Lance shook his head and stopped him, "Gawain's specific situation, the packer official has been updated, so, don't tell me, other reporters need to know about the situation!" I'm not a fool, and neither are you, don't make yourself more pathetic, and don't let your reputation be ruined. ”
With that, Lance stood there and looked at Drew quietly. That calm look made Drew a little embarrassed, all the words were stuck in his throat, his cheeks hurt hotly, as one of the top agents in the league now, no one dared to talk to him like this for too long, but looking at Lance's deep eyes, which seemed to be surging with mocking sharpness, Drew avoided his own eyes.
Lance didn't say anything more, turned and took a stride in the direction of the nurse's station. Drew adjusted his breathing, looked back at Jeff who was waiting, smiled, and walked towards Jeff, "Gawain is still asleep......" and then Drew put his arm around Jeff's shoulders and walked away in the opposite direction.
"Hello, I am a family member of Ward 521, my brother has just come to his senses, and I want to ask a doctor to come over for an examination." Standing in front of the nurses' station, Lance said politely.
At this time, there were about six or seven nurses on duty in the nurses' station, and when they saw Lance's figure, all eyes were immediately projected. As one of the top sports hospitals in the United States, they always see many top stars working here, but only athletes, and it is very rare to see Hollywood superstars.
"Of course, of course." The nurse standing in front of the counter nodded repeatedly, grabbed the medical record with both hands, and looked at Lance without saying anything, but at this moment, the mobile phone in Lance's pocket began to vibrate, Lance took out the phone, glanced at it, and then showed a smile to the nurse, "Then trouble you." With that, he turned around and picked up the phone and walked towards the balcony.
The nurse felt that her whole being was about to melt, and the surrounding area was filled with pink bubbles of happiness. The other nurses around were already talking about it, showing a rare lively scene. In the end, it was the nurse who came to her senses first, "Yes, check!" Mr. Strello needs to be checked! Then she hurried towards the doctor's duty room, and it seemed that Gawain could also get some special attention in the hospital where the powerful were gathered.
"Hey, Barry, I heard you're in Toronto now." Lance stood on the balcony, greeting him as if it were just a normal greeting call.
"Yes, I just arrived at the hotel, and the atmosphere here is very lively, and I have a hunch that there will be a lot to discover in Toronto this year." Barry's voice was also very clear, and there was a hint of a smile in his words, "I only received a message after I got off the plane, and I haven't replied to you until now." I saw the news, so, how is Gawain now? ”
Today, Lance has been trying to contact Barry, but Barry's mobile phone has been turned off, and the secretary in the office has said that he can't contact him, and now it's nightfall, and Barry called back. It's not a flight over the Atlantic, how can you lose contact all day. But Lance also knew that yesterday's accident was caused by him, and it was his fault, so Barry was full of nonsense, and he couldn't refute it.
"The operation went well, but we need to continue to observe." Since Gawain had brain surgery, he needed to be closely observed for the next seventy-two hours, which is why Lance did not mince words to reporters, "Barry, listen, I'm sorry for yesterday's incident, I was absent from the meeting temporarily, and then I couldn't tell you the situation at the first time, it's all my fault, I'm really sorry." Lance didn't want to talk too much about Gawain, so he quickly got to the point.
"Oh, it's okay, it's okay. It's not your fault, and I'm sorry that no one wants to see such an accident. Barry's words were magnanimous, "To be honest, we were all very worried when we heard the news. It's also a little more reassuring to hear from you now. ”
"Thank you for your concern." In the face of Barry's politeness, Lance has been nervous and cautious, "That's it, I was absent from yesterday's meeting in such a way, and then I will inevitably come to the door and apologize in person." However, I think it would be the right thing to do if we had a second meeting as soon as possible and then finish the script as soon as possible, rather than these words that had no substance. ”
"Lance, are you sure it's okay?" Barry showed sincere concern, "As far as I know, patients need some recovery period after any surgery, don't they? ”
"Yes, so it's going to be difficult to meet in person for some time, but we can video confer on the phone if you want." Lance came up with an executable plan, and he was now behind in the "I Am Legend" collaboration, so it was necessary to show enough sincerity.
"No, no. I can understand your current situation, not to mention, I am in Toronto now, and I will not be able to find time for a meeting for the next ten days, and we will have to wait until after ten days. Barry showed enough empathy, which was very different from what Dorothy had heard before, Lance didn't believe that a business tycoon like Barry would change his plans and sacrifice his own interests because of a small accident, and those who could be sacrificed in the face of enough interests were not living organisms, but only "collateral damage". "Well, for the next ten days, you can work on the script, and Aziva will continue to finish his script here, and after ten days, we will reschedule a meeting to discuss the similarities and differences between the two scripts, and then seek the best result. What do you think? ”
Ten days to complete a script? And on the premise that Lance must stay in the hospital to take care of Gawain? It turns out that the real trap is here.
However, Lance is a little confused about Barry's intentions, does Warner Bros. really want to work with him "I am a legend"? If he is sincere, then he can be given more time; If he doesn't want to cooperate, then he can make a decision on the spot, and he believes that Barry is not the type to drag mud and water. Or does Barry want to work together, but wants to put enough pressure on him? Or is there something else he doesn't know about?
His brain, which had not rested for more than twenty-four hours, ached, but there was no way back for him now, did he? Unless, like "Superman Returns", he decisively decides to give up. "No problem!" Lance's voice was still calm and powerful, and there was no shaking in the sound of the hunting wind. (To be continued.) )
