Chapter 33: The Young Paparazzi
Because the traffic was smooth, in more than half an hour, Ye Wei, who took a taxi, came to West Hollywood North Robertson Boulevard, the small street outside the Ivy Restaurant, he looked at his watch, 7:2o, 4o minutes before the Willis family appeared.
It's still early, and the restaurant doesn't open until 1o minutes later, so it's still quiet and not much people and cars come and go.
While there was still time, Ye Wei observed around the small streets and alleys of the restaurant, and made detailed preparations, he did not have any luxury cars such as Mercedes-Benz, Jaguar, Hummer, Maserati, etc. on the street, and it can be judged that there are no celebrities in this area.
The reason why Ivy restaurants are so popular with celebrities is that the food is delicious, the service is considerate, and there are heated terrace tables, outdoor tables separated by a fence from the street, which has a very artistic atmosphere, and a sense of freshness in the countryside.
The second is because it has a long history, a high reputation, and a paparazzi are stationed.
This makes those little stars who are eager to be exposed flock to it, and they will be photographed when they come, and they will be on the street photography information of various news media.
And the big stars usually really just want to have a meal and enjoy it, like the Willis family today.
The problem is that a superstar like him doesn't have a paparazzi where he goes? There are even paparazzi stationed outside their homes 365 days a year, and they follow them wherever they go out; even if they don't keep up this time, when they come to a restaurant to stay for a while, the paparazzi will come and hear the news, and informants are everywhere! Even if they stay at home, they can't escape the clutches, and the paparazzi sneak into the celebrity residences to take pictures more than once.
"Damn it. Seeing something at this time, Ye Wei couldn't help but curse secretly, some people came earlier than him, it was the paparazzi!
It's easy to identify, on the opposite corner of the street outside the restaurant, a group of more than a dozen people occupy there, that is the best photography position here, they are setting up telephoto lenses, SLR cameras and other shooting equipment, some are talking and laughing, some are adjusting the lens, all ready for a big shoot.
These people shouldn't have known that the Willis family would be here today, they just waited for the rabbits, but unlike the farmer who starved to death in the fable, they could always be there.
"Can't let these guys mess with it......"
Ye Wei frowned, he didn't have a contradiction with these people, whether they wanted to drive the stars crazy or not, but today there is a contradiction! These paparazzi will do bad things at any time, think about it, when Willis's family drove over, these people kept patting non-stop, maybe Willis didn't get out of the car, and drove his daughters directly to another alternative restaurant.
Can't let them just stick there!......
Thinking about it, an idea suddenly came to his mind, and the thirty-six plans to turn the tiger out of the mountain! Grandpa said it well, "Trick those devils into turning around, and then slaughter them from behind!"
After making the calculation, Ye Wei looked at his watch again, at 7:32, the time was not early, and he immediately started to act.
For the paparazzi, the weather is really nice today, no rain, plenty of sunshine, perfect for photo shoots, and on Sundays near Thanksgiving, celebrities love to hit the streets, and in the past, you should be able to catch a few big fish at an Ivy restaurant.
"Shouldn't we allocate resources? Duplicate photos are not valuable. "Are you in the industry on your first day?", "Dude, go home and take nude photos of your wife, that's worth the money." "I'll pay 1oo yuan to buy nude-photos, 5oo yuan to - your wife." "Hahaha!" ......
The paparazzi laughed, yelled, provoked each other, and swore in a way they communicated, like a group of red necks in a country tavern in Arkansas.
At this time, an Asian teenager walked in front of them chatting on his cell phone and exclaimed, "What's the news? Matt Damon and Ben Affleck? What's wrong with them?"
This kid seems to be a paparazzi, they don't feel surprised, there are indeed a lot of children in this industry, some are even younger than the person in front of them, these little ghosts take advantage of their youth, pretending to be harmless to adults and animals, so that celebrities can relax their vigilance and shoot a lot of exciting things.
Like he's holding that briefcase, needless to say, it's a camouflaged camera, and the card machine is in his pocket, this guy is a paparazzi!
The boy suddenly exclaimed, "What!?!......! Oh, I'll be right over!"
In an instant, the paparazzi's eyes widened and their faces changed, God, Matt Damon and Ben Affleck were fighting!?
They hurriedly took out their mobile phones, contacted their company colleagues, and informants, and inquired about the matter: "Damon and Affleck! They are fighting, is there any news?", "Where? Damn, where!!", "Did you come out all night at a nightclub? Check the nightclub!" ......
"Haha, I'll go over here, I hope to shoot something, this Thanksgiving depends on them, hopefully......"
Ye Wei pretended to press off the mobile phone that was not on the phone at all, and hurriedly ran outside to Robertson Avenue.
"Hey, hey, kid!" Several paparazzi suddenly chased after him, and those who hesitated in place also looked at him, "Can you tell me about the place?", "Yes, let's talk about it!"
"Oh dude, have you been standing stupid for a long time? Or are you going to give your wife to someone else to? you, bye, hahaha!"
Ye Wei's laughter was full of arrogance, his footsteps did not stop, and he was still scolding: "Fuck-you, this is my news, those two guys can't leave yet, there is a note coming, haha, fuck you! Sure enough, it was the paparazzi! Everyone's hearts suddenly pinched, and they were anxious to see others picking up gold! Unwilling! Almost all the paparazzi followed closely.
"Taxi!" As soon as he ran to the side of the avenue, Ye Wei raised his hand to hail a car, and a taxi that had been called drove up to him, and he quickly sat down, "Let's go!"
The driver drove in the direction of the west as promised, but just after driving a block and turning the corner, making sure that the paparazzi couldn't see it, Ye Wei hurriedly got out of the car and hid to the side. And this taxi will go all the way to Santa Monica, if the driver doesn't break his promise.
He had already paid for the car, and he had specially selected a loyal Asian driver, but he didn't dare to look for those Mexicans and Puerto Ricans.
Ye Wei went around in a big circle and returned to the small street outside the Ivy Restaurant, only to see that the opposite corner that was originally crowded with paparazzi was empty, and not a single paparazzi could be seen! It is estimated that they are all frantically following the taxi, or inquiring about the news.
"Whew! The whole world is clean. Ye Wei looked at his watch again, it was already 7:55, and the Willis family would appear at any time! I hope the paparazzi will not return within half an hour.
The restaurant has been open for more than twenty minutes, and at the moment, Ye Wei walked to the restaurant, it was still early, and there were not many guests in the outdoor table area.
"Hello, I would like an outdoor dining table. When he came to the gate of the flower fence and walked up a few steps, Ye Wei smiled and said to the white waitress.
"Sir, wait a minute, I'll see if there are any places left...... "The waitress flipped through the form in her hand, outdoor dining seats have always been very sought-after, especially on Sundays, which are usually booked, she raised her head and said apologetically: "There are no outdoor places anymore, but there are still in the restaurant." ”
Ye Wei couldn't help but slap himself on the head, he made a mistake, he didn't expect this, he had to beg: "Then can I take the food and stand outside?" It's quiet and won't disturb anyone. ”
"Well, this ......," the waitress was stunned by his strange request, "then you can only stand by the fence, and must not disturb the other guests." ”
"Okay, thank you!"
Ye Wei ordered a latte and a homemade multigrain French toast, and stood by the fence, looking around, like a bodyguard.
Suddenly, his mobile phone rang, and a text message came, and he was suddenly full of nervousness, really afraid that it was Ramo Willis who came, "You don't have to wait, we changed places", but fortunately it wasn't, it was Lily's: "Forward, wolf!ps: Don't talk about the director." ”
"How afraid she is of me being a director......" Ye Wei muttered with laughter, his heart was warm, and his energy was even higher.
The time displayed on the mobile phone screen was 8:o5, and at this time, he suddenly saw a suspicious Hummer suV slowly driving in, and the person who came was definitely not an ordinary person!
He stared slightly, watching the Hummer car park in a parking space opposite, turn off the engine, and a male waiter enthusiastically went up to help open the door, waiting for the people in the car to come out, and soon two girls came out of the back row, and his heart immediately beat wildly, yes, yes, they are all Willis's daughters!
12-year-old Scott LaRue Willis, 9-year-old Tallulah Belle Willis!
Then someone from the front seat also walked out, and it was 15-year-old Ramo Glenn Willis on the passenger side, and the driver's seat was ......
A sturdy and tall middle-aged man, Bruce Willis!
He was dressed in a light brown long-sleeved T-shirt and dark blue jeans, with his signature nasolabial smile on his face, and although he was bald on the top of his head, his athletic figure and full spirit did not look like that of a 48-year-old at all, and he was still the unbeatable Sheriff McLean.
He seemed to be in a good mood, thanked the waiter, looked around left and right, and seemed a little strange how he couldn't see a paparazzi.
Equally strange were the three Willis sisters, who even talked about "What about the Papa garbage?" and "Who knows, they're all dead." "It's weird. ”
It's weird, it's weird, but it's best without Papa trash, they can't ask for it.
Immediately after, the four of Willis, father and daughter walked towards the restaurant, getting closer and closer, and within ten steps, Ye Wei could clearly hear the words of the screen superstar: "What do you want to eat?"
"Whatever, that's not all. Ramo Willis was lazy, not quite awake yet, when she suddenly noticed the Asian boy standing abruptly in front of the fence, the crazy guy!
Ye Wei smiled at her and nodded, and said silently, "It's me." ”
"No wonder ......" Rameau looked at the weirdo, Lily Collins called her "average alumnus."
Unlike what he imagined, he was a handsome boy, dressed in a black jacket and jeans, holding a black briefcase and a cup of coffee, with thick straight Asian black, sharp edges, tall and muscular, but not associative with thick and stout, but very sunny, with the handsomeness of an Asian boy, not a little thin and delicate, not to mention the obscenity and ugliness of racial prejudice.
This guy's eyes are very powerful, and the brightness in the black is like a star, exuding a natural charm.
Add to that the deeds of freaks, cool kids, those little talents, and in a 15-year-old, he's a killer.
Anyway, she has never seen such a person in her school, nor in the circle of celebrity children. So it's no wonder he can make such a big move, no wonder Lily Collins is so attentive and says so much for him, one moment a movie dream, and another fan wish......
"Rameau?" Willis looked back at his stopped-up daughter. Rameau groaned and followed, that guy wasn't going to stand there all the time, was he?
The father and daughter arrived at a reserved outdoor table and sat down close to the fence, and their arrival surprised the surrounding guests: "Oh my God, you're Brooke Willis!"
As expected, Willis smiled at the crowd and declined requests for autographs and group photos.
The Ivy Restaurant is a well-behaved place, and the waiters come over to comb through the scene, and the excited guests go on with their breakfasts, glancing at most a few times without disturbing them. The four of Willis ordered food from the waiter, chatting in this elegant environment.
There is only a wall away from the target superstar! Ye Wei has been paying attention to the situation, repeatedly rehearsing the prepared rhetoric in his heart, and then taking a deep breath, he is ready to walk up.
He felt that it was better to introduce himself in the waiting time before the meal than during the meal, because it would not interrupt the food, and now that the paparazzi were gone, Willis was in a good mood, and if the paparazzi suddenly came back, it would be different again, and the opportunity should not be missed!
Ye Wei walked up the steps, came to the door of the restaurant, and walked to Willis's table of four not far to the left, and as he walked, he looked at the semi-bald head of Willis, who was sitting with his back to him......
At the same time, however, Ramo was glaring at him and telling him not to come over yet!
But Ye Wei's attention was all on Willis, he walked to the table, suppressed his beating heart, and interrupted with a smile: "Mr. Willis, Miss Wesley, I'm Ye Wei, it's a pleasure to meet you here, it's really an honor." ”
It was only when he said that he realized that Willis was frowning, looking at some information on the screen of his phone......
Mess up!Ramo pouted, he didn't expect it to be so fast, he was just a kid all along.
Both LaRue and Belle looked at him, and although he was a handsome Asian guy, they had no interest in talking to him and didn't want to be disturbed.
"Oh, thanks. Willis glanced at the boy, then continued to look at his phone, and said mechanically: "I'm not going to sign autographs and take pictures today, I just want to have a peaceful breakfast with my daughters, young man, you understand." ”
Ye Wei looked at Ramo, his eyes were nervous, come on, big man, it's time for you to speak.
"Dad, this guy is actually an alumnus of a friend of mine, and he's your number one fan. Rameau was helpless, but he also fulfilled his promise.
