Chapter 259: A Way to Refute Rumors
New York TV.
One is the host wearing a black suit and glasses, and said to the audience with a serious expression: "There is a news report today that the French sexy star Brigitte was secretly photographed, and all major news media have published relevant news on the front page headlines. Judging from the photos that have been circulated, the big beauty Brigitte is in an affair with Alex while maintaining an affair with several men. ”
At the same time, NBC TV and CBS TV also reported the news, and only ABC TV in Alex's hand reported the news more objectively.
In the program, the news host of ABC TV questioned the authenticity of the news, and also pointed out that several photos were stills from Brigitte's previous films, so naturally they should not be true.
As the saying goes, the benevolent see the benevolent and the wise see the wise.
Some people are making a fuss, some are watching the excitement, and some people are deliberately slandering. Most of the audience is not wise, and they watch the lively gossip news, and many are so excited that they can't sleep at night.
Celebrity scandals spread so quickly that they burned the entire mountain in the blink of an eye.
At first, it was just some tabloid gossip, and after that, even some formal and serious newspapers and magazines joined in the report, completely turning out Brigitte's past and present for people to see. Their influence is so great that in addition to the Americans, other countries have begun to follow and report on them.
The British "Times" said: "Let's not talk about the truth of Brigitte's split, I'm afraid that her relationship with Alex will end!" ”
The Observer said: "Alex, the American genius, is frustrated in love. French actress Brigitte's plan to marry into a wealthy family has failed!
The Guardian pointed out the world's morality, saying in the paper: "When Brigitte appeared in front of the audience in a bikini, it was already a foreshadowing of today's scene, and morality has long since slipped to the ground with her clothes." ”
The Soviet newspaper Pravda made fun of Alex at length, saying: "When the American genius boy looks up at the rockets in the sky, don't forget to keep an eye on the woman behind him, lest she run out of the sky and steal the man!" ”
Later in the news, Pravda belittled SCC's rockets, saying that they were as powerful as sparrows and eagles compared to the Soviet space agency. Not at all on a level.
The French news media are all in full defense of Brigitte: "Brigitte is the pearl of France. She deserves to be treated so unfairly. In some news, she was maliciously described as a lascivious and shameless woman! If this continues, let's ask Brigitte to go home, the world outside is too sinister! ”
Ever since Brigitte was scandalized. The Carpenter family ended their trip to Hawaii. Returned to New York City.
On the way. Karen kept clamoring in Alex's ear, saying things like how bad Brigitte was. At first, Alex would argue on his own merits. Soon he understood one thing: "Don't try to argue with women, the right and wrong of a thing are judged not by facts at all in their minds, but by emotion." ”
Karen is still young, but she is a 100% woman.
For Brigitte, who doesn't like it, and this kind of thing happens, she naturally doesn't have a good feeling.
The Carpenter couple only nodded a few words on the side, and did not say that they were dead, but judging from their expressions, it is estimated that Brigitte has already decided that Brigitte is the kind of woman mentioned in the newspaper.
His younger brother Richard, however, uncharacteristically sided with Alex, believing that the newspaper news was too exaggerated and had no credible basis at all.
When Alex returned to New York, he went straight to Brigitte and tried his best to amuse her.
When you're alone, you don't have time to think about how to deal with it.
When the news first came out, Brigitte jokingly called Alex and said that she had been slandered again, but she had become accustomed to it. When things got worse and worse, she felt that something was wrong, this situation had never happened before, most of them were scribbled by some small media, and the regular big media reported more fairly.
"For what...... Why do they want to do this to me! Did I do anything wrong! ”
Alex cried in Brigitte's arms, breaking his heart, and he hurried to comfort him. I was busy for a long time before I coaxed Brigitte well, took some medicine and fell asleep groggy.
"Holy! Who's doing the trick! Alex said viciously in the living room.
After being beaten inexplicably, Alex felt very depressed, he didn't expect that someone would do such a thing that hurt others and was not beneficial to himself, purely to be happy for nothing.
When he saw the news newspapers, which repeatedly reported on Brigitte's "splitting of legs", he knew that something was going to be bad. But I still didn't expect it to make such a big fuss, and even those newspapers with serious remarks began to slander and report on these non-existent things.
"Someone might be behind it, otherwise the newspapers wouldn't have done this!"
Alex guessed right, someone was playing tricks. And it's someone he knows, Director Hoover of the FBI. He glanced at the phone number and wondered if he was going to call and ask. But in this way, it will definitely let the other party succeed.
Since those people made a big deal out of this matter and didn't want a ransom or anything, they must have hoped that he would throw himself into the net.
Originally, it was nothing, just a phone call, and it was a big deal to act when the opportunity came. However, before making the call, Alex's sixth sense told him that the call was not easy to call, and there was a strong smell of conspiracy in it.
Since this is the case, then he simply continued to stand still and see what the other party planned to do. If you accidentally fall into the trap, you're doomed. Although it is said that it will not change to respond to all changes, it is still necessary to calm down the so-called "leg splitting incident" so as not to cause mental trauma to Brigitte.
Generally speaking, one way to cool off a news hotspot is to break out in other, more sensational news. Another is to make the news lose its value of dissemination.
If you want to break more sensational news, unless the Soviet Union launches a nuclear missile, Alex can't think of any good way for the time being.
Then we can only look at the second way, if his method works, then everything is worry-free.
The reason why this "leg splitting incident" has communication value is because the protagonists of the incident are Alex and Brigit, and the world thinks that the two will break up. During this time, there were a lot of phone calls asking when Alex would break up with Brigit. Or simply ask him if he has broken up.
And not just the phone. When he attends some banquets and appears in public. There will also be people who will come to ask about it. Everyone has a heart for gossip, and even Hughes gossiped and introduced him to new women.
"I have a lot of good resources here, and they are all quality girls. It has been carefully selected. Hughes was on the phone. So teasing. His words are half-truthful. Maybe there are girls, but Alex doesn't believe that Hughes will really pimp.
Sure enough, Hughes didn't say a few words about the joke. He turned the conversation to Tesla's manuscripts and the sage's legacy. He wanted to know what Alex planned to do with it, and maybe he also wanted to persuade and reconcile.
"As you can see, they just move your fingers and keep you busy. I'm afraid that this scandal was caused by them, if the other party ignores the rules and uses force......"
Hughes's words didn't intimidate Alex, he snorted coldly: "The siege of the Carpenter family's business is probably not the same as Brigit's. It's not good for them, it's only going to me off! ”
He paused and continued: "As for force of force...... Hey, I have my minions too! ”
Hughes shook his head on the other end of the phone, knowing that he still hadn't been able to move Alex, and that he had been closely following events since the last time they met at the base. I thought Alex would compromise, but what I didn't expect was that he would still insist on such a big thing.
The sage's legacy is a hot potato, and Hughes himself wants to be a part of it at most. He didn't have the idea of monopolizing it, but if he wanted Alex to cooperate willingly, I'm afraid it would take a while.
When it came to more important things, Hughes still couldn't figure out who was behind the scenes and made such a big scene. To be able to make Disney, IBM, Pan Am Airways, NBC TV, RAC Records, and other companies in different fields work together to fight at the same time, which is probably already an elder figure.
"The fact that Freemasonry and the Illuminati are not moving means that those organizations do not see Alex as a hostile target. In other words, it's just a personal act. But where did Alex provoke such a person? That's the elders, aren't these old guys all the year round hidden and never show up at all? ”
After putting down the phone, Hughes frowned, pondering the key to it. He knew that it was very complicated, but he couldn't figure out the clues, everything came so suddenly. All of a sudden, Alex has entered the field of vision of the people at the top of the pyramid, and since the kidnapping case, it is estimated that someone has the idea of the Carpenter family.
"Maybe it's just like Alex said, only by touching it first will you know who is hiding behind the road!"
Hughes muttered to himself, finally no longer bothered by it, and he was going to wait and see. It didn't take long for the news that the Carpenter siblings were going to release a new record, and this time Alex, Richard and Cullen were on the battlefield together.
Alex hasn't recorded in a while, but his songs are still very popular and popular on major radio stations. If it were another person, if he didn't sing for so long, I am afraid that he would have been eliminated by the market and forgotten by the fans.
But Alex is so special, what he does across borders has too much influence, whether it is writing novels, making movies, investing in companies or engaging in scientific research and invention, he can quickly achieve amazing achievements, and people can't help but pay attention to him.
It is precisely because of his frequent crossovers that many people who have never heard his songs know about the Carpenter brother and sister group, and learn more about the songs he has sung before. It can be said that Alex's existence has made the records of the Carpenter brother and sister group known to more people, and their popularity continues to rise.
Because of this, many fans are looking forward to Alex continuing to sing. They wrote to the record company, demanding that Alex release at least one record every year, or even just one song.
Naturally, Alex's announcement immediately attracted many media outlets, and it quickly became a sensational news.
The New York Times immediately turned the news to the news, and they reported: "Alex announced that he is going to release a new record, is he trying to share the fire with his girlfriend Brigitte and draw the topic of public opinion to the side? ”
The Chicago Tribune reported: "The King is back. Just because I found out that the harem was restless? ”
Women's Circle, which was founded in 1932, also paid close attention to this news. It is an illustrated monthly women's magazine with many female readers.
In the Brigitte "Leg Splitting Incident", it has also been tracking the report and believes that Brigitte is a role model for women. Call on everyone not to believe the gossip news reported by other media. And also try to guide female readers to learn how Brigitte dresses and so on.
In fact. It was because of its coverage of Brigitte that many women paid attention to the magazine. Stimulated by the surge in sales, "Women's World" is naturally very concerned about things about Brigit. In addition, Alex's popularity is not bad, many women are fascinated by him, and a variety of factors are combined, and the magazine can't let go of this news.
"Women's World" said: "Although there have been recent rumors that Brigitte and Alex have broken up, or are in the process of breaking up. But judging from what Alex did, he was still defending his girlfriend. Hopefully, he can clarify things to the media sooner rather than later, and don't leave Brigitte alone to endure all this. ”
In addition to this, most news outlets are analyzing and claiming that Alex has either broken up with Brigitte or has a tendency to do so, otherwise he would not have made such an unexpected move.
Alex doesn't dare to appear in public now, because once he is targeted by reporters, he will be asked: "How are you and Brigitte?" What should I do? ”
"How is Brigitte doing now? She's not with you, is something going on? ”
Or a reporter asked, "Did you break up secretly?" ”
"After you broke up, do you plan to find another one?"
At the end of the week, I was tired of being asked about the "breakup". Alex couldn't help but respond: "I'll sing a new song on the new record, it's about the breakup." If you're interested, you can wait until the new song comes out to buy it and listen to it. ”
Oh? It may sound interesting, but is Alex going to write a song with the theme of "Breakup"?
The reporters present wrote on the paper: "Alex has confirmed that his breakup with Brigitte is true!" ”
The next day, when Alex got up to read the newspaper, he was almost pissed off by these bastard reporters. From this incident, he learned one thing, that is, when facing reporters, if you don't want the other party to make up the news, it's best not to say a word. Don't even have facial expressions, otherwise, you are likely to be made a big fuss by the other party.
As soon as this news came out, it set off a monstrous wave among the crowd concerned about public opinion. Relevant news reports have been released, which simply added fuel to the fire of the original incident, and everyone knows about it.
Faced with such a situation, Brigitte and Alex both felt crying and laughing, although the two have not broken up, many relatives and friends have been misled by the news. Many people called them, intending to comfort them.
"Do you want us to clarify this to the news media?" Alex asked softly in Brigitte's ear.
Brigitte bit her lip and shook her head: "Don't use it for the time being, this may be able to relieve the pressure on you and me." In case some people always think that I have kidnapped you, and some crazy female fans send bullets to me, saying that they want to punish me! ”
After Alex heard this, he had to comfort her with a wry smile: "Don't worry, it will be over soon." ”
The reporter's indiscriminate reporting caused some trouble to the two of them. However, this has caused Brigitte to be attacked a lot less. People are all focused on the "breakup" thing, and they are all speculating about what kind of song Alex will release. No one talks about the cause of the incident or the seemingly ambiguous photos.
Alex had originally intended to make this "scandalous incident" lose its newsworthiness, but now that it has begun to work, people are no longer very interested in it, and even bored with it.
It's just that some people mention the original photos from time to time, and the reason why Alex broke up with Brigit.
From this point of view, the effect is a little weaker. This made Alex have a plan, and he swapped out a song he was going to sing. It is a love story about a couple who broke up because of various factors such as misunderstandings and rumors, but when they learned what happened, it was difficult to restore their relationship.
His song just shows that he and Brigitte will not follow the path of the hero and heroine in the song.
Now he suddenly felt that if he replaced another "Breakup" theme song, he might be able to draw the topic aside.
The more I think about it, the more likely this is to be, as if in a historical drama, a group of modern people suddenly appeared, completely breaking the original atmosphere of the story. His song can also make people feel this way, and everyone may laugh at it at that time.
Laughing and laughing, everyone forgot what the cause of this incident was, and Brigitte's predicament naturally disappeared. (To be continued......)
