The Wolf of Los Angeles.

Ocean Parkway, Twitter office building.

In the conference room, Hawk pulled open a chair and sat down, then said to Edward, "Play it."

Edward pressed the remote control and a video less than two minutes long began to play, with a man and a woman appearing on the screen.

Even American men who don't watch football can recognize that it's Beckham.

Women are very strange.

When the video was over, Hawke said, "This is the exclusive news that Caroline just bought for a million dollars."

He looked at Caroline. Miss Mee took the remote control from Edward and pressed "Continue Play".

Three photos appeared on the projection screen, showing Beckham, Victoria and the woman in the video.

Caroline shone the laser pointer in her hand on the image of the woman: "This person is Rebecca Ross, Victoria's assistant. In other words, Beckham cheated on his wife's assistant."

Everyone lives and works in Los Angeles, so this is not surprising at all. This kind of thing is too common in Hollywood.

For example, it was previously revealed that Brad Pitt cheated on his family's nanny.

Caroline had learned enough from Betty, who came to sell the video, and continued, "The news provider has already persuaded Rebecca. She is on a flight from Madrid to Los Angeles. Twitter will conduct a live interview with Rebecca."

Hawke said: "This news about Beckham is mainly aimed at the Latin American, European and Asian markets. Our goal is to further attract attention from overseas markets and expand Twitter's overseas user base."

"We already have relatively mature technical support," said Haaland, director of the technical department.

Sasha asked at this time: "There is no problem with the live broadcast technology, but we lack a professional enough interview host. Do we need to hire one temporarily?"

When Hawke received the call from Campos, he considered this issue and also considered Megan Taylor, but Megan's contract with Fox was exclusive and it was not a good fit.

He thought of a candidate who would not cost a fortune: "After the last Red Table Talk with the Smiths, did Jada Smith sign any other talk show contracts with other TV stations or media?"

Edward knew more about black celebrities, so he answered, "No, that was the first episode of Red Table Talk, and he didn't appear in the next episode."

"Very good, we can try to hold a second episode." Hawke looked at Edward and said, "Savior, after Rebecca Ross signs the agreement, you will be responsible for contacting Jada Smith to see if she is interested in holding a second episode of Red Table Interviews."

Edward took out his phone, looked through the contact information, found the number of Jada Smith's agent, and said, "Leave it to me."

Hawke gave several more instructions and said no more: "Let's adjourn the meeting."

Everyone walked out of the meeting room.

The video will not be released for the time being. It will not be too late to release it until Rebecca Ross comes to Los Angeles and the two sides have talked and the news plan is finally finalized.

…………

In the afternoon, Betty and Fiona drove a business car to pick up Elana and Rebecca from Los Angeles International Airport. They first went to the Beverly Hyatt Hotel to help the latter check in, and then went straight to Twitter's headquarters in Santa Monica.

When they arrived at Ocean Park Avenue and saw the logo light on the roof of the Twitter building from afar, Rebecca finally realized that the media she was going to cooperate with was the largest social network on the Internet.

Seeing her unusual expression, Elena said, “Don’t be nervous. Twitter has influence all over the world. Don’t you want to be a celebrity? Twitter is the best choice.”

Rebecca forced a smile but pondered it because Beckham had participated in the ice bucket challenge and she had some knowledge of Twitter.

This online media company has exposed a lot of celebrity news this year, including Will Smith and Kobe Bryant.

Their operating model should be similar to that of The Sun, purchasing news at high prices.

When Rebecca got out of the car, she was thinking, isn't the asking price of $20 a bit low?

Betty took Elaina and Rebecca into the reception room on the first floor.

At this moment, Caroline was discussing work in Hawke's office, and Edward received them.

The two talked for a while, and Rebecca asked for $200 million.

Elaina stopped her and asked, "Didn't we agree on $20?"

Rebecca said, "This is news about Beckham. He is a superstar in the football world!" She looked at Elena and said, "You also said that I can gain both fame and fortune from this. This is your promise to me."

Elaina didn't know what to say for a moment.

Edward knew that he was not capable of dealing with her, so he said, "I can't decide the price. Please wait a moment."

As a former assistant who had the guts to sell out Beckham and Victoria, Rebecca had already decided to throw away her reputation and urged, "Hurry up. If you're too slow, I'll talk to other media about cooperation."

Before leaving, Edward made a look and was the first to leave the reception room. He waved to Jerry, the deputy director of security, and said, "Find two women to guard the door. If the woman in red wants to leave, find a way to keep her."

He had been with Hawke for a long time, and although he could not think of any good ideas, he had a lot of crooked ones: "I remember one of your female employees broke her nose a few days ago? Transfer her here temporarily."

Jerry understood immediately: "I understand. If she dares to run around, she will break our employee's nose."

Rebecca was very courageous and greedy, and she thought she had absolute initiative. But as a girl in her early twenties, she did not have a clear enough understanding of the dangers of this society.

Edward picked up the phone and called Hawke.

Elena, who got the hint, left the reception room.

In the office on the fourth floor, Hawke put down the phone, glanced at Caroline across from him, and said, "Rebecca Ross temporarily raised the price to $200 million."

Caroline raised her long eyebrows: "She's darker than us!"

Hawke said, "You go get her."

Caroline gritted her fangs and said with a smile, "Give me a few minutes, I'll think about it."

After a short while, Yangtuizi got up and walked out.

Caroline came downstairs and Edward introduced Elena.

She asked Elaina some questions: "Does Rebecca have any evidence such as videos, photos or genetic material that can prove that Beckham cheated?"

In Madrid, Elaine hinted: "I can confirm that there is no."

Caroline looked at Edward again: "I remember you mentioned before the meeting that Victoria Beckham was in Los Angeles."

Edward replied, "Yes, she was invited by Tom Cruise to guest star in Nightcrawler directed by Eric Eason, and it seems she even bought the house next door to Tom Cruise."

"Understood." Caroline pushed the door and entered the reception room.

Rebecca was slightly stunned when she saw the person coming in. The other person was tall, good-looking, and luxuriously dressed, which completely overwhelmed her.

Betty introduced: "This is Carolyn Jones, the operations director of Twitter."

Caroline nodded at her. "You asked for $200 million, right? Sorry, your price is too high."

Rebecca said: "The news of Beckham's cheating is worth the price."

Caroline smiled contemptuously: "You seem to be mistaken. We have already obtained the video of Beckham's cheating. You didn't sell it to us. You are just a supplementary part of the plan. It doesn't matter whether you are there or not."

Rebecca then realized that she was wrong. The news video was not hers, but Elena's.

Caroline easily overpowered her and took the absolute advantage, and further said: "You can cooperate with other media, because Twitter doesn't have to find you to supplement."

Rebecca found a counterattack: "Are you looking for Beckham himself?"

"Victoria Beckham is in Los Angeles." Caroline said slowly: "Your behavior is within our expectations. You are just Plan A. Twitter also has Plan B."

She didn’t say: “Twitter will release the video news immediately, and contact Victoria before releasing it, cooperating with the Beckhams, and Victoria will give an exclusive interview to Twitter, accusing you of actively seducing the Beckhams.”

Rebecca didn't expect the other person to be so beautiful but so shameless. She said, "The video explains everything."

Caroline smiled: "The video was shot from more than one angle, and it's not just this one. Elena has known you for two months. Do you think this is the only time you were filmed?"

Stars and female assistants, the latter will definitely take some initiative to a certain extent, so Caroline said: "There are some video materials where you are very proactive. Then, you will become the target of public criticism and the target of attack by Beckham and Victoria's fans. No one will believe what you say, and most people will only believe that you are a slut."

Rebecca didn't know enough about the media and was annoyed: "You are so shameless!"

Caroline said directly: "We have a verbal agreement. If you are not prepared to fulfill it, we can only activate Plan B."

Rebecca was silent.

Caroline used the big stick and then gave a little sweetness: "Of course, if possible, we will give priority to Plan A."

Rebecca raised her head and looked at the woman opposite her. She thought she was a little scary.

"30 US dollars. If you agree, we will sign the contract now. If you don't agree..." Caroline pointed to the door of the reception room: "The door is over there. You can leave now."

Rebecca looked at the door, gritted her teeth, and said, "Okay, $30! Once the contract is signed, you have to pay half immediately."

Caroline nodded: "You are a smart woman."

The two sides reached an agreement, quickly drafted a contract, and signed the agreement.

Edward looked at the agreement and took out his cell phone to contact Jada Smith's agent.

Jada Smith quickly messaged back, agreeing to work with Twitter.

The last "Red Table Talk" brought her huge traffic, and Jada Smith formed a band based on this.

Before leaving get off work that day, Twitter released the news of Beckham's cheating scandal. (End of this chapter)
