Chapter 24: The Fall of the Star
On a highway in an urban area, a van is driving at a fast speed, the car changes lanes, overtakes, and various violations are constantly displayed, as if the owner of the car does not care about the traffic rules, or he does not understand the traffic rules at all.
In the car, a man wearing glasses and a jacket sang excitedly: "You are my little apple, I can't love you too much~" Although this song is already a song from a few years ago, the man driving the vehicle still sings with relish.
This man is a member of the paparazzi, he received exclusive grapevine, saying that a superstar went to a star hotel alone, he thinks that this superstar must be going to **, because I heard that this star's private life is very chaotic, and after he goes, he will get rich by taking a few photos, even if he can't take ** photos, take a few photos to enter the hotel and the like, he can make a lot of money with a few words, thinking of this, the paparazzi can't help but laugh. Some distance before arriving at the destination, the man got out of the car, he walked around the neighborhood, looked at it, chose a few vantage points, took out the equipment to be used, and began to assemble and splic.
20 minutes later, I didn't wait for a big star to appear, but the phone rang at this time, and the caller ID was my peer, and I learned a lot from others at that time, so I called them senior brothers, although I didn't want to answer them, but after thinking twice, I still picked them up.
"Hello? Big brother? What's wrong? The man said calmly as he looked at the door of the hotel.
"It's nothing, I'm looking for you to come out for a drink, are you done?" A somewhat hoarse man's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"In a while, I'm still on my way back, I have to go back to the office first, the battery is dead, I want to charge it so as not to affect the progress of tomorrow." The man opened his eyes and made up nonsense.
"Oh, that's okay, you'll be busy talking to me in a while, hang up, bye-bye." After saying that, he hung up the phone.
The man didn't respond and pressed the end of the call directly, continued to hide in the shadows and waited for the candid shot, and after more than half an hour, the big star he was waiting for appeared, the big star was already in the hotel, and he came out of the elevator and walked in the direction of the front desk, the big star looked like he hadn't woken up, the man excitedly picked up the camera and began to focus and shoot, after taking a few photos, the big star stayed at the front desk for a while and then went to the elevator, the man was excited to shoot at the big star and didn't have a head, and finally the big star entered the elevator.
Although the paparazzi didn't take a picture of what they thought they were **, they also thought of a lot of titles, most of which were not very good, and drove back to the studio excitedly and began to wash the photos, and the photos were washed out in about an hour, and there was a woman in the photo who had been following the big star, her whole body was wet, and her hair was one by one, why didn't you see it at first? What the hell? Or did you not notice it because of the angle?
Rushed out of the studio, drove back to the hotel again, put the photographic equipment in the car, went down to the hotel alone, did not go to the front desk directly to the elevator, walked into the elevator and didn't know how many floors he should press, but always felt that the big star should live in the best one, so he went to the upper floor, because the upstairs decoration is better, the room is larger than the downstairs, the man arrived and turned around aimlessly, returned to the elevator, felt that he couldn't come in vain, took out his mobile phone and took two photos of the elevator.
After taking the photo, when I checked the photo, I found that there were water stains on the ground in the photo, but I was obviously standing here, nothing, although I was afraid, but I was still a little excited, and returned to the highest floor to shoot with my mobile phone, I didn't find any water stains, I took the stairs to the penultimate floor, and found that there were obvious water stains on the penultimate floor, and I walked while shooting, there were footprints on the carpet one by one, all of which were wet footprints, and when I walked to the innermost room, the footprints disappeared, but the door was very wet, but the naked eye couldn't see it at all.
The paparazzi's excitement at this time has exceeded fear, and when he didn't know what to do next, the mobile phone rang, and this sound frightened him, it was the senior brother calling, and he picked it up.
"Senior brother, I may not be able to rush over in a while, I'm still busy now, I'll hang up first." After speaking, he hung up the phone and did not give the other party a chance to speak.
At this time, two security guards in uniform walked towards him, he saw these two staff members, and walked into the elevator in a hurry, and the two staff members went up and said: "Hello, sir, we have been observing you in the surveillance for a long time, did you drop something?" Or are you looking for someone? ”
He said calmly: "I'm looking for someone, it seems that I have found the wrong hotel, I'm going to another house." The staff calmly said, "Can you please go to the office with us, or take out your mobile phone to show us?" The man became a little nervous and said, "It's nothing, there's nothing to see, I'm leaving." Seeing this, the two staff members forcibly invited the man to the office.
The staff checked the contents of the phone, saw the water stains in the photos, knew what was going on, deleted the photos, and deleted all the photos in the name of worrying that it was other hotel competitors, but the paparazzi didn't plan to let this matter go easily, and began to ask for compensation without perseverance, and didn't want money, just tell him if XXX lives in the innermost room, what day he lives, what time will it usually come out, etc., as long as he tells him, it will be flattened.
In the end, the two sides reached an agreement, the staff deleted the photo, the paparazzi got the information they wanted to know, and after knowing it, they happily walked out and drove to the senior brother for a drink.
The next night, according to what the staff said, the big star would go to the bar at about 6.20 every night, so he began to watch here again, but at 6.30 there was no one, in the blink of an eye at 7.00, he began to be a little angry, but still focused on staring, to 8.00 he got angry, walked to the hotel with a camera around his neck, and shouted to see the security staff, asking for damages, yesterday's two staff came to chat with him for a while, and told him:" We don't care when the big star comes out, we just tell you the fixed time when he will come out every day, which is strange to say, why didn't he come out today? He would come out every night at 6.20pm. ”
The man was very angry but helpless and walked out, arrived at the steps at the door of the hotel, angrily flipped through the mobile phone address book, found the phone number of the senior brother, dialed it and said, "Senior brother, come out for a drink, where are you?" Do you need me to pick you up? Let's go there..."Before he finished speaking, a black shadow slammed into the ground in front of him, and the man looked at the person who fell from the building in front of him... It's a big star, he was stunned for a while, then quickly picked up the camera hanging around his neck and took a lot of photos, and then left here before the agent and the police and other relevant personnel came.
At this time, his boss also called, he picked it up, and the boss shouted: "Hurry up and go to XX Hotel!" XXX committed suicide by jumping off the building!! Go take some pictures!! He was stunned and said, "I finished shooting, when he jumped off the building, it was right in front of me, and I am now washing photos in the studio." The boss laughed out loud and said, "You're a great boy!" It's a good life!! Such a big news for you to catch up!! I'll be over in a moment, and you're going to get rich!! You're going to be famous!! ”
The boss shouted happily and ecstatically on the phone, but the man was not so happy, he thought that he should be the exclusive news when he photographed this kind of information, and his worth would rise, but why would he be inexplicably lost? Guilt for the deceased? Or is it because I am actually a bit of a fan of this big star? He didn't know, maybe it was because someone was scared by jumping off a building in front of his eyes.
After the boss came, he excitedly shouted the man's name, the man did not stay in the studio, but sat in a daze in the office outside, the boss saw him happily came over and hugged him, took out a cigarette and gave it to him, but saw him frowning and asked what was wrong?
He took the cigarette, lit it and said in frustration: "Boss, am I disrespecting the deceased too much?" He died in front of me, but I didn't call the police, nor did I call the hospital, but took a few photos, and then quickly left the scene and came back to wash the photos, am I too lacking in morality? Tears rolled in the man's eyes, and he didn't know if it was because of tobacco or guilt.
The boss also became serious and said: "No way, we are doing this, waiting for us to go to his funeral, give him a bouquet of flowers, put incense on the pillar, cheer up, things have happened, we can't waste such a big scoop, what about photos?" The man pointed to the studio, and the boss walked in, because the boss was also a photographer, so the man didn't follow up, and the boss went in for a while and walked out, sat down next to the man and said: "Maybe you're right, we should maybe have a lower limit, it shouldn't be like this, we should respect the deceased, or respect some other things, go back and rest, these photos and news, don't post." ”
The man looked up at the boss in surprise when he heard the boss's words, and the boss said to him, "Come back tomorrow morning after a while, don't go into the studio." The boss wanted to send the man away, the man politely asked the boss to go by himself, and finally the boss took the man away, and also went out for a few drinks together, and heard someone next to him when he was drinking
"Did you hear that? XXX seems to be injured and hospitalized. ”
"What? Nonsense, what kind of hospital do people live in when they are dead, didn't he jump off the building? ”
"Why did you jump off the building? Suicide for love? ”
"I don't know, the private life of the person they are celebrities is not quite messy, maybe they are drunk."
"I'll take a look at you jumping off the building when you're drunk, we didn't jump off the building after drinking all day, it's definitely not because of drunkenness."
"I mean when I get drunk and think of sad things, I can't control myself and jump off the building, celebrities don't all want to have a depression, not necessarily, maybe it's drugs, their private lives are messy."
"What can you do if someone has money, and who has money doesn't try to try all kinds of new things."
The man drank and said to himself: "This is the way this world is, even if I don't report it, these people will know, and they will crankily say several versions, so am I wrong?" Or these people? Maybe we're all at fault, hehehe. ”
After drinking, the boss asked the substitute driver to send the man home, and he also went home.
The next morning, the boss was waiting for the man in the company, and when the man came to the office, he found that only the boss and a middle-aged man were there, and the boss listened respectfully to the middle-aged man, and called him a master.
The man walked over and looked at the boss and the middle-aged man, and asked the boss, "What about the others?" The boss said, "I'll let them take a day off today and introduce you to this master, who I specially invited." Then he looked at the master and said, "Master, he took those pictures." ”
The master nodded and looked at the man and said, "Do you feel that you can't get over it with your conscience now?" The man did not speak and turned his head to the side of the table, and then the master said: "It is a good thing that you feel that your conscience is not passing, but your conscience is not sad for this drama, but because there is something more sad about it, and that emotion affects you. As the master spoke, the man looked at the picture on the table, which he had taken last night.
In the photo, the big star fell to the ground with his back to himself facing to the left, and there was a wet woman on the back of the big star pinching his neck, no shoes, wearing white pajamas, the second photo, the big star's facial expression was very hideous, but it didn't look like he had fallen to death, as if he had been strangled to death, his eyes were wide, and saliva and blood were mixed with his mouth, and the woman behind him knelt on the back of the big star, holding her neck with both hands, and in the third photo, the woman's hands left the big star's neck and hung on her chest, looking at the big star who died on the ground crying sadly, although the woman was wet all over, the tears were still obvious.
The man was scared and sat on the swivel chair with weak legs, the boss asked a few words with concern, the man waved his hand to indicate that he was fine, and looked at the master and didn't know what to say, but the master said at this time: "What?" Scared now? At that time, you were not scared when you were shooting, and you were not afraid when you were tracking those water stains when you were shooting. The man was even more frightened and speechless.
The boss looked at the master and said, "Master, tell him now." The master nodded and said: "That woman is the first girlfriend of this play, when the play was not famous at the beginning, he had to rely on this woman every day, the woman made money for him to eat and drink, and also paid him for the bus fare to participate in various talent competitions, and also spent a lot of money to buy him clothes or something." ”
When the man heard this, he despised this star in his heart, he had hands and feet, and he couldn't go out to make money by himself?
The master continued: "Later, this play began to slowly become famous, he is very good at catering to the appetite of the audience, and he will develop in that direction what the audience likes, so he has gathered a lot of popularity, this play is very good at acting on the spot, so he has established a perfect ideal man image for the audience, humorous, handsome, polite, and talented, but how can these audiences know the truth, humor is learned from others, handsome is also packaged by the company, politeness is only a few words on the Internet, many are published by the public relations team, The so-called talent is ridiculous, he can't act, he has only sung songs, they are all saliva songs, not his own lyrics and music, but the public relations team is very powerful, so he has become one of the popular stars, and those who are stars have scandals, and he is no exception, and because of this, he began to feel that his girlfriend is not good enough, the two originally agreed to get married at the age of thirty, but in a blink of an eye, both of them were over thirty years old, and his girlfriend knew that there were many audiences who liked this play, so he didn't propose marriage, just waited quietly, Waiting for the news in the end was that the actor announced in front of the media that he was with a certain actress, and the girlfriend was very sad when she found out, but she still kept comforting herself, saying that this was a scene, and the actor had not contacted his girlfriend once in two months during this period, or his girlfriend took the initiative to find him, and the actor said that he was making a scandal, saying that he would not really be together with the actress on the spot, and the girlfriend believed him, and vowed to marry her together, and then the girlfriend was pregnant, and the child told the actor about it when he was two months old, The drama was very happy to say that he wanted to take his girlfriend home, but it was just talking, and he also said that he was going to find an opportunity to tell the media that he was going to get married, and in a blink of an eye, when the child was five months old, the drama had not fulfilled his promise, but told her to wait first, he was very busy, and when the child was seven months old, the drama announced his marriage to the media in a high-profile manner, and the bride was the original actor, and the bride's father was a well-known director. She was very sad, and she looked for a drama many times without success, so she asked for help on the Internet, but there were a bunch of brain-dead fans on the Internet to scold her, some people scolded her for wanting to be famous, some people scolded her for being **, and some people scolded her for being a junior, she was very sad, she was treated as a mistress like this, she was obviously a victim but got a bunch of infamy, and she was doxxed, her own photos, and contact information were all over the Internet, although there are supporters, but the supporters are sensible, and brain-dead fans are absolutely irrational, so supporters will not use violence, Finally on this day, when the child was seven months old, she went to the hospital for a check-up, but was treated unfairly by the brain-dead nurse, and the brain-dead nurse found more brain-dead powder, the nurse thought that these people would scold her a few words, but I didn't expect more people to punch and kick, and the child was miscarried... Blood flowed all over the ground, the girlfriend of the play was very aggrieved, although she cried, but the tears were angry, the onlookers saw this scene and came up to pull brainless fans, but there were also many well-wishers, who were scratched by brainless fans, the security guards in the hospital came to stop them, someone called the police, and after the police came, they took away some of the troublemakers, the hospital fired the nurse and was taken away by the police, although it was in the hospital, but the child was never saved. ”
When he said this, the man couldn't help but slam the table hard, and kept swearing in his mouth.
The master took a deep breath and continued: "This woman has nothing to be nostalgic for after all this, she wants to die, she called the drama before she died, and the drama hung up impatiently, because he also saw the information posted by the woman on the Internet, and the woman sent a text message to tell him that the child was gone, and he was miscarried by his fans, this text message was very useful, the drama called, asked her to go to the hotel and wait for herself, and she would take care of her, she just wrote it so stupidly, after going to the hotel, the drama did not come forward, The agent of the play came, gave the woman a sum of money, and found someone to take care of the woman, but the woman did not appreciate it, pretended to be strong and looked around the room and said with a smile, I haven't lived in such a good hotel, pay me for a month, don't need to find someone to take care of me, I'm fine, you take the money back, I don't need to, the agent breathed a sigh of relief after hearing her words, the money was not taken away, but I didn't let others come, thinking that the woman should want to be alone and quiet, after a while, it's fine, the woman stayed, Call the play every day, the play often does not answer, occasionally pick up is to deal with two sounds, once at 6.20 minutes when the play said that he was in the hotel lobby, but has not come up, and then he went to the hotel living room to ask the front desk staff, the staff said that there has been no one, from then on every day at 6.20 pm she will go to the front desk to ask if someone came to me today? One day I didn't ask, the front desk also said that it was strange, why didn't the woman come to ask today, but the next day I cleaned the room and found that she died in the bathroom, cutting her wrists a lot on her wrists, and they were all cut vertically, this is really bent on death, sitting under the shower shower in the bathroom, leaning against the wall, when she died, she still had a wry smile on her face, closed her eyes, leaned her head against the wall, wearing a white pajamas, the water in the shower head still hit her body, and the blood on her hands flowed down the water to the drain, The cleaners in the hotel usually don't come, because the woman in this house has always lived here, never went out, didn't call for food today as usual, didn't go to the front desk to ask last night, and thought it was out, so she came to clean the room, but she didn't expect to find that she had left this world. ”
Although the man is from the paparazzi, but at this time he lowered his head, and tears could not stop falling on the back of his clenched fists, compared to that star, the man is more like a person than him, the boss had heard it once before the man came, but now his eyes are still wet.
The master picked up a photo and continued: "Although the woman is dead, she is very resentful, because when she cut her wrists and slowly waited for death, she thought of a lot of things, thinking of her happiness and happiness at the beginning, thinking of everything she did after the drama became famous, thinking of her own children, and finally thinking that she is now in this field, she is very unwilling, but it is too late, she is about to die, and finally the powerful resentment makes her become a resentful spirit, her resentment affects the play, and the play begins to hallucinate, Because when the police came to investigate, the agent also came to the scene, she attached to the agent to the play, and then affected the play, the play finally had no intention of filming, and asked to stay in the hotel a month later, and asked to stay in the room where the woman died at that time, the play began to repeat what the woman did before her death, in a daze, did not go out, went to the front desk at 6.20 in the evening and asked if anyone came to me? Every day, the consciousness is getting weaker and weaker, I saw the woman, the woman opened her hand to scare him to strangle him, he was afraid to dodge, but he was still choked by the neck, the actor was afraid to run around, the feeling of suffocation was very uncomfortable, in fact, it was all psychological, how could the spirit body choke a person's neck, causing it to suffocate, but he himself was convinced, thinking that he was going to suffocate and die, he grabbed his neck with both hands, thinking that he was breaking free, in fact, he was going to strangle himself, so he ran to the window, She thought she could break free, but he fell from the window, and when he fell, the woman also fell, riding on his back and choking his neck, she hated the show, she gave everything for him, and in the end she got the most incommensurate reward. After the drama died, she also left, but those who died by suicide can't be reincarnated immediately, and they still have to suffer, and the time is measured in a hundred years, if you pity her, go and worship her more, help her to go over, or you will have a better way. ”
After knowing the truth, they sent the master away, and then they went to the hotel, because they remembered that the two security guards in the hotel seemed to know something, and when he found the hotel security personnel, he asked the hotel staff about the original photo, and the hotel staff just told the two that they thought the man was a reporter and came to investigate the previous female guest, although they had heard that the female guest later became a ghost, but they didn't know that it was true, until they saw the photo that day.
The two returned to the office, took the photo, asked around and found the place where the woman's grave was, paid their respects, said a few words, burned the photo, and then returned to the office.
Back in the office, they printed a lot of new titles "The deceased star XXX turned out to be a scumbag before his death!! "And collected a lot of information and dry goods out of the printing, and hired a water army on the Internet to post, although it is a water army, but what is said is the truth, the entire network world and the real world overwhelming news appeared, so that the people who did not care about this matter also joined the incident, after learning the truth, everyone was heartbroken, brain-dead fans were also criticized and written, and even many people formed an anti-brain-dead alliance on the Internet, as long as there are brain-dead fans who come out and reverse black and white and forcibly wash white, as long as there are brain-dead fans who are still brain-dead behavior, Slowly the character image collapsed, some people said that he should leave some morality, people are dead and still talk about him, but some people say that it is too cheap for him to die.
After the image of the big star was completely subverted, the two came to the woman's grave with newspapers about the big star, and burned these newspapers to her, the newspapers at this time, no one scolded her, they were all sympathetic to her, people who pity her, people who hated and spurned the big star, and there were many people in front of her grave to lay flowers, and the boss and the man burned the newspaper titles while reading, this feeling was like avenging their good friends, waiting for the two to leave, the two found out, The woman in the photo on the tombstone seemed to be smiling at them.
Soon after, the boss and the man changed careers, but they changed the soup but not the medicine, from a star to a sneaky photo to only reveal the secrets of scumbags and female stars, although they have been intimidated many times, but the boss and the man are not afraid, in their own words.
"I've even seen ghosts!! Ghosts are not afraid!! I'm still afraid of you!?? ”
