Chapter 581: Flattered Billy
FA Cup final victory! Manchester United have won the treble!
Manchester United's official website immediately issued a poster: Hot summer, hot Manchester United, hot quadruple is just around the corner!
The picture is a group photo of Liu Yun, Qu Bai, Lewandowski and other players.
Back in Manchester, Jose Mourinho gave his players a day off. A day later, United will regroup and head to Warsaw, Poland.
The warm early summer sun shines on Manchester's beaches. Liu Yun's family, Alger's family, and several personal bodyguards were lying under the beach sunbathing.
Little Cola is already a year old. Now he's learned to walk, but he often breaks his cheeks.
Liu Xiaoyan took a rag doll and teased Little Coke. Little Cola stretched out two small hands and staggered towards the rag doll.
"Wow~" Little Coke fell on the beach on his back, like a little turtle with a flip cover.
"Ahh Xiao Cola didn't cry after he fell, but danced excitedly on his back to the sky.
Liu Xiaoyan walked over and picked up her sister: "You big fool! Don't be stupid. â
As soon as Little Cola got into his sister's arms, he was like a docile cat. She put her two little hands around her sister's neck and kissed them non-stop.
A few hundred meters away on the beach, a man in his thirties was lying. He was half-lying on the beach, looking like he was sunbathing. In fact, he had a DSLR camera pressed under him. He's a lace magazine reporter, and to put it bluntly, a paparazzi.
Now the photos of Liu Yun's family on the street can sell for a whopping 500 pounds in the paparazzi. In particular, the photo of Manchester United's little princess holding her sister can sell for more than 800 pounds.
The British paparazzi secretly thought that he was so lucky that he secretly took a photo of the little princess of Manchester United hugging her sister. The photo was sold, enough to pay part of the credit card bill and buy a dollhouse for his 10-year-old daughter.
Paparazzi are a hard job. In order to take a photo secretly, sometimes you have to squat for days and nights. The paparazzi laughed at themselves: our profession is harder and more dangerous than the police in Scotland Yard!
Indeed, this profession is always accompanied by danger.
Which of those big-name stars is not followed by a few biao-shaped bodyguards? Sometimes celebrities are in a bad mood, and when the bodyguards catch the paparazzi who are secretly filming, they will first smash the camera, and then they can't help but say that it is a beating.
Whether in the UK or China, it is illegal to beat someone, and you can call the police. The paparazzi usually choose to swallow their anger. Who allowed himself to eat on celebrities?
Liu Yun was on a beach chair, basking in the sun with sunglasses. He glanced into the distance and spotted the paparazzi.
Liu Yun is not disgusted with the paparazzi, but has a trace of sympathy. Any profession is just a means of earning a living. It's like I used to set up a breakfast stall and work as a cleaner to support my daughter. The status is humble, no, a breakfast stall can't talk about any status at all, that is the lowest level of society.
It's the same with these paparazzi. worked hard, day and night, but for life, for food.
Liu Yun said to the bodyguard Dardania: "You go over, please ask the reporter to come over." On a hot day, come over for a cold Coke. â
The bodyguard Dardanha walked towards the paparazzi, who was in his thirties.
Dardania is physically strong, and he has fought in Africa, and he is full of murderous energy. There is also a memorial left by the shrapnel of the grenade. It can be said that this guy has an abominable face and looks like a standard villain.
Such a person walked towards the paparazzi, and the paparazzi was so frightened that they ran away.
This paparazzi is covered in fat, how can he outrun the former professional soldier Dardania?
Dardanha caught up with him in a few steps.
The paparazzi clung to his camera: "First, sir, I will destroy the negatives." Is it okay not to smash my camera? Also, please be gentle when you hit me! â
Dardania was confused: "What are you talking about?" Why am I smashing your camera? What are you hitting for? My boss wants to invite you over for a cold soda. â
The paparazzi were flattered: "Your boss? You mean the old lieutenant is going to ask me for a soda? â
Dardanha nodded.
The paparazzi trembled and followed Dardania to Liu Yun.
Liu Yun kindly stretched out his hand to the paparazzi: "Hey, hello, it's nice to meet you." I'm Liu. â
The paparazzi flattered and shook the hand of the old lieutenant of Manchester United: "Hello, my name is Billy." â
"You're Billy." Liu Yun said, taking out a can of Coke from the iced drink box next to him and handing it to Billy.
Billy took the Coke and took a sip. He didn't know what to say, so he said, "Nice weather." â
Liu Yun smiled and said, "Yes, the sunshine is so good today." Billy, are you a full-time photojournalist? â
Billy shook his head: "Photojournalist? My old lieutenant sir, you can call my profession by its original name: paparazzi! â
Liu Yun is notoriously close to the people in Britain. is not only close to the people, but also close to the paparazzi. Sometimes when the paparazzi follow him, he will even call the paparazzi to the front in a friendly manner and let the paparazzi shoot up close.
Liu Yun said: "Journalism is a noble profession. You're lucky Billy. â
Billy shook his head, "Old Lieutenant, are you mocking me?" People like us are like filthy street dwellers in the slums. Everybody hates it. â
Liu Yun said: "Reporter, no, paparazzi, to put it bluntly, it's just a profession to make a living. Maybe you'll have to support your family with this profession. What's not to hate? â
Liu Yun's few words made Billy lose his guard. He and Liu Yun chatted like old friends.
Billy's dream in high school was to be a journalist. Later, he failed to apply to the London College of Communication. After graduating from high school, he worked as a restaurant waiter for a while. Later he got a girlfriend. Because the measures were not done well, my girlfriend became pregnant. He became a father at the age of nineteen.
Later, his girlfriend ran away with a businessman surnamed Huang who owned a tannery in Birmingham. He is alone with his daughter, and he is both a father and a wet nurse.
Three years ago, by chance, he entered a London pheasant magazine and became a professional paparazzi.
After Billy finished telling all this, he sighed: "Alas, my dream is to one day become a real journalist and win the Pulitzer Prize." Unfortunately, this is just a wish. â
Liu Yun said to Billy: "As long as you persevere, your dream will definitely come true." Three years ago, I wasn't much better off than you. is also a single father, and the same is a meager income. Life is like this, as long as you live, you will definitely encounter good things. Life is not easy, we can only do it and cherish it. â
Liu Yun said to Billy again: "By the way, how many photos did you take just now?" â
Billy hung his head and said, "It's too far away, although I took a dozen photos, I guess I can only use two." â
Liu Yun called his daughter and wife: "Billy, our family is here." What kind of pose to pose, what kind of photo to take, we are at your command. â
Billy couldn't believe his ears. A celebrity's family poses under their own command? Feel free to shoot? Don't talk about yourself, even those old paparazzi who have been in the industry for twenty or thirty years have never encountered such a thing.
Liu Yun hugged his little daughter in his arms; The wife and eldest daughter opened their bows left and right and kissed the old lieutenant on the cheek; Liu Xiaoyan let Xiao Coke ride on her neck; Liu Yun and his friend Alger put their arms around their shoulders.
Happy family time is left in the paparazzi Billy's camera.
The shoot is done, and Billy is leaving.
Liu Yun said to Billy: "It's a pleasure to meet you, Billy. I'll leave you a phone call and come directly to me if you need help later. â
Billy was speechless. After a long time, he burst out with a sentence: "The Times Post is right." Mr. Old Lieutenant, you are a man of high character! Whether it's the ball on the pitch or the character in life. You're the best of the best. â
After Billy left, Alger asked Liu Yun, "Liu, tomorrow you are going to Warsaw." When are you going to announce your return to Coventry next season? â
Liu Yun said: "At the final press conference, I will announce the news. â
Alger said: "As soon as this news is announced, we in Coventry will be in ecstasy. For Manchester United fans, it will be a bolt from the blue! 2k reading network
