The Wolf of Los Angeles.

Chapter 173 Very stupid and naive

After two days of filming and three days of post-production, the first episode of "Traveling with Paris" was successfully completed.

Meanwhile, Rooney Chasen and Hilton's Los Angeles lawyers jointly announced that Paris Hilton is suing Rick Solomon for violating her privacy rights.

Then, as Hawke said, they took the lead in provoking a war of words in the media, with both sides going back and forth, and it was quite lively for a while.

Rick Solomon accepted a TV interview and said: "Paris strongly requested the filming. I disagreed at the time and she threatened to break up with me!"

Hawke makes Paris's counterattack mainly based on naivety.

Paris responded via Twitter: "I was forced. He told me that if I didn't let him take the photo, he would call another woman. I don't want to lose love."

She also borrowed a line from Shakespeare: "I was so young, so foolish, so naive..."

The naive and innocent character suddenly appeared before the public.

These have restored the popularity of videos and news that had previously cooled down.

After filming the first episode, Paris continued her previous dissolute life as Hawke said, and had a scene in a nightclub with Britney.

When leaving the nightclub, the drunk Paris, facing the paparazzi's pursuit, simply lifted up her skirt to show everyone.

Nicole Kidman once shocked the Venice Film Festival by lifting up her skirt.

Paris Hilton is making waves on the Sunset Strip these days.

Under Hawke's manipulation, the heat was raised again.

Only when it is popular can it have selling points.

Hawke then contacted Natasha, who was introduced by Megan Taylor, and Katherine also contacted her connections at Fox TV.

Paris has been a hot figure in the past two years, especially this year. The obscene video alone has overshadowed the scandals of countless Hollywood stars.

The two sides quickly reached an agreement and held a preview meeting in the screening room of the Fox Television Center.

That afternoon, Hawke, Rooney and Catherine came over with sample films.

As for Fox, Megan came over specifically to watch the show.

Her friend Natasha from the video channel was about 30 years old and had long brown hair.

Natasha introduced the other two people to Hawke: "This is York, the associate producer of the column, and this is Cole, the director."

Hawke shook hands with each of them.

These three people have the decision-making power.

After exchanging pleasantries, Hawke said directly: "Shall we watch the show first? Let's talk about other things after watching the show?"

"Okay." Natasha is also a straightforward person.

Hawke handed the storage disk to an assistant, who immediately connected it to the digital player.

Megan didn't sit with Hawke, but sat next to Natasha.

The show starts playing.

The title sequence flashed across the screen: Walking with Paris.

A beachfront villa appears in the frame, and then Paris Hilton bursts into the frame, giving the camera a tour of her luxurious home in Los Angeles.

The woman was dressed luxuriously and walked into an even more luxurious villa, showing off her wealth in every frame and every second.

Natasha frowned slightly. Although this was somewhat interesting, it might cause serious discomfort to the audience.

York and Cole exchanged glances and felt that this show of showing off wealth was a bit boring.

Because there are many such programs on other TV stations, the audience is tired of them.

But the scene changed, Paris was hungry and wanted to find something to eat, the nanny was not at home, the girl who carried the bag did not know how to cook, and the rich daughter who had taken ladies' classes prepared to cook herself.

She changed into clothes that she thought were suitable for cooking, put on a diamond-studded sequined miniskirt and a rose gold hairpin.

In order to protect her hands when cooking, she puts on a pair of special fingerless gloves. Under the light, the gloves sparkle with diamonds and rubies.

Then she started making her first dish, ironing bacon.

I was clumsy during the process and burned my hands twice, but fortunately I was protected by diamond fingerless gloves and did not get hurt.

The contrast between the super rich daughter dressed in exquisite and luxurious clothes and her bewildering cooking skills immediately piqued York and Cole's interest.

The latter lowered his voice and said: "This show is quite interesting."

The experienced York grasped the essence of it: "Exquisite luxury and naivety, the most typical rich girl in the public's mind."

Paris shows off her exquisite cooking skills and luxurious kitchen utensils in front of the camera.

Pink potato peeler inlaid with sapphires.

The sparkling pink salt, but unfortunately when adding the salt, I just poured out half the bottle.

While mixing the cream, her clothes got dirty and the gems on her gloves fell into the cream.

The syrup turned black as pitch.

The originally snow-white cake turned into a strange gray color.

York suddenly whispered, "This cake is delicious."

Cole looked at him in surprise: "How dare you eat this kind of dark food?"

York lowered his voice and said, "Eat it and then poop it out. You can make a fortune! I just lost. At least five gems over one carat fell in!"

Cole immediately changed his tone: "I want to eat too."

At the end of the show, Paris decided to make the simplest fried steak.

Everything was normal until she pulled out the spatula for the frying pan, and even Natasha couldn't help laughing. The spatula was covered in diamonds!
At the end of the show, the rich girl finally ate the slightly burnt steak.

What you eat is not important. What is important is that the young lady dresses herself exquisitely and luxuriously from head to toe.

Created the image of a "silly Barbie" who is out of touch with the world.

Before the show ended, Paris took off her diamond-studded fingerless gloves and thanked them for protecting her.

The subtitles of Director Eric and Producer Catherine appear at this time.

Megan looked at Natasha, who nodded slightly and smiled a little. Some things didn't need to be said.

The screen turned off, York and Cole looked at Natasha, and came over to shake hands with Hawke one after another.

The former said: "It was a very exciting show. To be honest, it was a little beyond my expectations. What appeared on the screen was a completely different Paris Hilton."

Hawke laughed and said: "The media has stigmatized her. In fact, she is just a girl in her early 20s. She also has a normal side."

Natasha came over at this time and said directly: "The show is very interesting, I want it, let's talk about cooperation somewhere else."

The main purpose of this trip was to get the show aired on TV.

Hawke doesn't really care about copyright fees or advertising revenue, as all expenses are paid by Paris.

Rooney Chasen, the public relations manager, did her job conscientiously and kept the rights to the show in Paris's hands.

He called Catherine and Rooney Chasen and followed Natasha to the reception room.

During the negotiations, Rooney was the main person in charge, and Hawke and Catherine hardly spoke.

Although the show was very interesting, Paris Hilton strictly speaking did not have an audience base, and in the end only $150 million was negotiated for the three episodes.

This also includes Fox owning some of the subsequent production and distribution rights.

The situation is similar to that of Hollywood movies, where the party that owns the distribution channels has an absolute advantage.

It was not until the next day that Hawke asked Rooney to call Paris over and sign a series of agreements.

Paris was very excited that her show could be broadcast on Fox's TV station. She fully demonstrated what it means to be the second generation of a billionaire.

Paris divided the $150 million copyright fee into three parts, $30 of which was awarded to Rooney Chasen, $50 as a filming and production bonus for Eric's team, and the remaining $70 was given to Hawke as a special consulting fee.

Through the contact during this period, Hawke was basically able to confirm that although Paris was having fun, she was not simply naive.

A broadcasting agreement was reached with Fox, and the remaining second and third episodes began filming in full swing.

Paris was much more serious than before, especially in the second episode of making candy.

She commissioned Rooney Chasen to hire a confectioner at a high salary to teach her how to make the candies more beautiful.

A large quantity of gold and platinum foil was also ordered to be used for wrapping the candies.

The audience cannot taste the candy through the screen, so the visual effect is the most important.

Paris took to heart everything Hawke said to her and was determined to start her own candy brand.

Considering the total of $150 million plus $70, Hawke also gave Paris some advice during the filming of the show: "Starting a candy brand requires a complete business plan. I can help you with the planning, but the real business operation still depends on you."

He emphasized, "Paris, you'd better ask your parents for their opinions on this candy plan."

Paris didn't quite understand: "Besides providing me with a rich life, they don't interfere with me in other aspects. Why should I ask them?"

Hawke asked, "Is candy a necessity in a Hilton hotel?"

"Of course, candies will be placed at the front desk, lobby, gym, recreation room and other public relations venues." At this point, Paris suddenly realized and looked at Hawke in a daze: "Is this the key to the success of the candy brand?"

Hawke was paid to do his job and was responsible: "Don't think this is shameful. Look at me and Eric. We want such an opportunity but we can't even find a way."

Paris now trusts Hawke: "Okay, I'll listen to you and call my parents tonight."

“You can achieve your goals faster this way,” Hawke said.

Paris is ambitious: "I want to be famous, I want to be successful, I want to be a billionaire!"

What Hawke did was actually to monetize Paris's traffic.

The second episode is still being filmed, and Fox Channel has already begun promoting Paris.

Paris's invasion of privacy lawsuit against Rick Solomon also had its first hearing in Los Angeles.

Hawke asked Rooney to spread the news in advance, and dozens of reporters came that day and surrounded the entrance of the local court.

When Rooney accompanied Paris out, she gave a special interview to the media and announced that she would hold a press conference at the Hilton Hotel tomorrow to formally respond to the videotape.

Hawke no longer needs to worry about the rest.

Rooney is very skilled in these traditional media promotion tactics.

At the subsequent press conference, Paris emphasized that she was a victim. At the climax of the press conference, it was announced that the show "Going with Paris" will be aired on Fox Channel next weekend.

Fox also released a promotional video.

Paris's luxurious look and the dazzling diamond spatula she used to fry steak caused a strong response as soon as they appeared.

It seems like a strange general is so ferocious.

Meanwhile, a poster of Paris showing off her cooking skills while wearing diamond fingerless gloves also appeared on her official Twitter account.

This poster was forwarded crazily on Twitter, and in less than a day, it topped the Twitter trending news list.

Over the past two years, Paris has been a hot topic in the gossip media, and in terms of persistence, she is more durable than many Hollywood stars.

Taking advantage of the hot topic, Fox launched this program.
