Chapter 474: Fighting for the Benefits
At the University of California Medical Center, the entrance was crowded, and the cameras were like long guns and short guns, set up on both sides of the road.
TV trucks from Warner TV, NBC, ABC and CNN all drove to the main entrance of the hospital, and the live camera was pointed at the scene, and from time to time, their own reporters interviewed the people on the scene, and the news was broadcast on the TV station.
In the sky, the sound of humming engines was heard, and Fox Network helicopters flew directly above the medical center, filming from a high vantage point.
More and more people gathered at the door, and the people who appeared later were all wearing red cultural shirts, but there were hundreds of people in just over half an hour.
"It's all Martin Davis supporters." The NBC reporter said: "If Martin is in trouble, this hospital, and the LAPD will be very troublesome. ”
Another reporter said: "Martin estimates that he can triple our winnings this month. ”
The reporter in the back suddenly said: "If Martin dies......
The eyes of countless peers have turned to him, and most of the people here may have similar thoughts in their hearts, but they can think about it, but they must not say it.
The man was a journalist who had just passed his internship, and his boss reprimanded, "Shut up, you've seen videos from multiple angles, and Martin is a hero!" ”
The little reporter may have a bit of background and said: "Those people are aiming at Martin, what kind of hero is he?" ”
Warner TV sent the ace Helen, and when she came over, she happened to hear this and said, "You don't have eyes? With the madness of those bandits, if it weren't for Martin's initiative to attract fire cover, how many people would have died in the docklands? ”
Someone knew that Helen had a good relationship with Martin, and said: "Helen, what's wrong with Martin, you ask!" ”
Helen's face was extremely serious: "Martin's personal phone can't get through, and his agent's phone is not answered." ”
Someone answered: "It may not be good. ”
As he spoke, a red Porsche drove up and entered the hospital gate.
The quick-eyed reporter said: "That's Elizabeth Olsen's car, Martin's girlfriend is here." ”
When the Porsche disappeared from sight, another reporter looking around said, "The neighborhood is going to be dyed red." ”
The reporters found that the Martin supporters who came in red did not stop.
At the entrance of the hospital, one car after another drove in.
Lily and Elizabeth got off the Porsche, went to the medical center together, asked questions, and went to a consultation room.
Thomas, Chad and Mene were close and were the latest to arrive.
Elizabeth was about to cry and asked, "What is the situation, Martin?" What about Martin? ”
Lily pursed her lips, didn't say a word, and copied the hand into the pocket of her clothes, holding the carving knife tightly, only then did she realize that there were really relatives who were hurt, and she was very powerless.
"Martin is injured and he's being treated inside," Thomas said. ”
Elizabeth's eyes finally couldn't hold back, two lines of tears flowed, and she held the cross given to her by her mother in her hand, asking God to bless her.
Lily came over and hugged her: "Martin's life is very hard, he will be fine." ”
Elizabeth was much softer than she was, and she fell on Lily's shoulder and cried.
Mene was so anxious that he walked around, scratching his head vigorously, wanting to help but not knowing what to do, which was the most worrying.
His verbal skills are useless when encountering this kind of thing.
The door to the medical room opened, and a nurse said, "Is Thomas Lane there?" Martin wants to see you. ”
Thomas hurriedly strode over and said, "I am." ”
The nurse nodded and let him in.
Lily breathed a clear sigh of relief.
Elizabeth suddenly had a bad premonition: "Martin, Martin......"
"Martin is fine, it must be a minor injury." Lily relaxed and joked, "If Martin is really in a bad condition, I must be the first to call in, not Thomas." ”
Elizabeth lifted her head from Lily's shoulder, took a step back, and looked at Lily in a little surprise.
But she didn't say anything, and turned to look at the room.
In the examination room, Martin had his left arm hanging from his neck, his right thigh was wrapped in a bandage, and there were some small scratches near his neck and shoulder, all of which had been carefully treated.
Thomas asked, "How's it going?" ”
Martin smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's not a big injury." ”
Because it was a ricochet, it was blocked by the Nokia mobile phone, and the wound on the right leg was not deep, it was a flesh wound, and there were no stitches, so it was good to raise it for a while.
The left arm was hit with all the strength of the old man, of course, it was not very comfortable, there was a little very slight bone crack, and the doctor made a fix for him just in case.
In fact, when Martin was a martial artist in his previous life, he suffered a lot more serious injuries than this.
Martin first asked, "What about Lao Bu?" ”
"He's coming over after being questioned by the LAPD and the FBI!" Thomas looked at his watch and said, "I guess it will take half an hour at most." ”
Sure that Lao Bu was fine, Martin began to talk about other things, asking, "How does this matter affect now?" ”
"The news channels of the five major TV networks broadcast on a rolling basis, tracking reports, and online media such as TMZ will release a relevant news every ten minutes." Thomas has been on top of the media through his assistant Natasha: "Now the whole country is watching this. ”
He added: "Two of your old friends, Bradter, a public relations specialist at the Los Angeles Police Department, and Neves from the F.B.I., have contacted me and advised you not to give interviews and face the public for a while, because they are on their way to Los Angeles." ”
Martin thought for a moment and said, "You call them back, I'll wait for them until the evening." ”
"They'll be coming over soon," Thomas said. He added: "The FBI and the LAPD have also greeted the hospital, and as long as you don't make it public, the hospital will remain silent." ”
Things have happened, and Martin has been thinking about maximizing profits from the time he deliberately fell.
"You don't respond to any media for a while, and people out there, you keep them silent for the time being," he said. ”
Thomas said: "It's all my own people, that's fine. ”
Martin said while thinking: "On this matter, you immediately communicated with Rita and Martha's Oscar PR team, so that they could keep an eye on the development of the situation and adjust their strategies according to the situation, I believe this matter is extremely beneficial to Oscar." ”
Thomas wrote it down.
Martin added, "Remember to ask Chad to come along." ”
Thomas pointed out the door: "He's right outside the door." ”
Martin nodded, pulling the wound on his arm, this is not the time to fight, he became delicate again, grinned in pain, and gestured to the Nokia 1100 with the bullet stuck with his eyes, and said: "Send a blurry picture to the Nokia people to see if you can make some money from them." ”
Thomas glanced at his phone, helped Martin put it away, and said, "This time they must be crying and rushing to send us money!" ”
Then the nurse came in and pushed Martin out of the room and into the ward area.
As soon as the hospital bed was out, Lily and Elizabeth came running.
Elizabeth looked at Martin's arm, and tears flowed down her cheeks.
Martin sat back on the hospital bed and shook his head at her slightly, signaling that he was okay.
On the way, Thomas confessed to Chad and Mene.
Entering the ward, the nurse gave a few words of advice and left automatically.
In her eyes, Martin's injury was really nothing.
Martin said: "Don't worry, I'm fine, I'll be fine soon." ”
Elizabeth said, "I'm scared to death! ”
Seeing that Martin was fine, Lily went to the balcony of the ward alone and called Elena and Harris.
Martin called Chad and said directly: "You hurry up and cut out a trailer for "Fast and Furious", communicate with Warner Bros., and use this incident to promote the movie." ”
Chad also has a certain business acumen: "I watched the video on the dock, and you acted like Jonathan walked into reality, and our film must be a hit!" ”
Martin smiled and said, "If you want to explode, you have to do a good job of publicity and marketing." ”
Chad said: "With such good material in front of me, even I know what to do, Warner's professional team is fine, especially Daniel, who is a good player." ”
Martin said, "It's okay on my side, you go ahead and move this forward." “
Chad was ready to leave: "I'm going to the studio, I'm going to see Daniel first, and I'll cut a trailer overnight." ”
Mene spoke to Martin and walked with Chad.
Elizabeth poured a glass of water and brought it to his lips: "Drink the saliva, your mouth is dry and peeling." ”
Martin took two sips and said, "Nervous." ”
"You can recuperate in peace." Elizabeth had been worried, especially with Martin's arms hanging and his legs bandaged, and she deliberately complained: "You're like this, and you're still thinking about work." ”
Martin said: "It happened so big, I was almost shot and killed, but I finally survived, and of course I had to use it to get the most benefit." ”
Elizabeth didn't understand this: "I'm here with you, tell me what you need me to do." ”
Her phone rang, but when she got through, someone asked about Martin's injury.
Elizabeth didn't say anything, hung up the phone and turned off the phone.
There was a knock on the ward door, and Lily went over to open it, and it was Leonardo and Nicholson who entered.
The two were a little surprised when they saw Martin's bear-like appearance: "Is the injury so serious? ”
Martin said with a smile: "Small injury, deliberately serious. ”
Nicholson, who is old and sophisticated, immediately understood: "This matter is well utilized, and your Oscar acting award is stable!" ”
Leonardo could understand and couldn't help but scratch his head, as if he saw the tragic future of two bastards showing off the golden man in front of him, but he himself was going to be ridiculed every day.
Nicholson comforted, "It's okay, I'll give you one then, after all, I have three." ”
Leonardo surpassed Martin and became the most injured person in this ward.
The two didn't stay long, chatted with Martin for a while, made sure that his injury was really okay, and quickly said goodbye and left.
Facing media reporters again, the two did not say anything other than boasting that the trio worked closely together to take out more than a dozen gun-wielding bandits.
In the middle of the afternoon, people from the LAPD and the FBI officially came to visit.
