The Wolf of Los Angeles.

Chapter 74 The Angel is Coming
Hearing that Sarah Parker accepted the advice, Hawke felt relieved that the first step was successful.

He asked, "Which specific brand haven't been negotiated yet? The price is not right?"

"It's not just about price, it's also about the brand style." Caroline was quite proud of what she was good at, as if a teacher was teaching a primary school student: "Sarah is now a top actress on TV. Although she is not as good as the first-line actresses, she also has a huge fan base and influence. Even if low-end brands offer high prices, they are not within our consideration range."

Hawke deliberately acted very modestly: "The big news I just reported is that Miller Collins is said to be sued for breach of contract by the brand he endorses. Will the cosmetics endorsement be sued?"

Caroline was particularly satisfied with his humble attitude: "Of course, if you take money from the merchant, you must bear the corresponding responsibility. If problems arise due to personal reasons, the manufacturer naturally has the right to pursue breach of contract."

Hawke asked seemingly casually, "If Bro domestically abuses Sarah and hits her in the face, does that count as a breach of contract?"

"Not really." Caroline thought to herself that this guy had always had a hole in his head. "You've filmed it yourself. Bro's feelings for Sarah are very complicated. It's a deformed love. From what I've observed, Bro would rather get hurt himself than let Sarah get hurt."

Hawke said bluntly: "I can't understand it."

Caroline curled her lips and smiled: "I can't understand it either, so we can't be stars, we can't be one of them."

Hawke concluded: "Because we're not perverted enough."

Caroline agreed: "Yes, we are normal people, but those who work in Hollywood are a bunch of perverts. For example, couples on the set, as long as it is not exposed, the couples are treated as if they do not exist."

"This kind of love is so special." Hawke was afraid that asking too much would arouse suspicion, so he stopped and turned the topic to Caroline herself: "You will definitely get a lot of commission for facilitating such a big order."

Caroline said, "It's okay. It's better than the hard-earned money you earned."

"I'm starting my own business, working hard for my own career." Hawke certainly wouldn't let her go: "If you have a suitable business over there, can you introduce me to it? You know me, I specialize in treating difficult and complicated diseases."

Caroline said with disdain: "You are too wild and don't play by the rules. Sooner or later, you will be bitten back."

Hawke pretended not to hear: "If you can successfully introduce a deal, I'll give you a commission."

Caroline's face immediately changed, like a smiling little lamb: "No problem."

Her cell phone rang at this time. She went to the window to answer it, said a few words and quickly hung up. She came back and mentioned Hermes: "I have something urgent to do here, so I have to leave first. Please apologize to them for me."

Hawke stood up and walked out, casually asking, "What happened?"

Caroline said quickly, "The baseball star Steve Nutter we just talked about, his pregnant model wife Daisy is having labor pains and is heading to a hospital in Orange County. There are a lot of reporters following her, and I need to rush over right away."

Hawke nodded: "I wish you all the best."

Caroline's high heels made a loud noise when they hit the ground, and she quickly disappeared.

Hawke returned to the meeting room and gave a brief speech, but no one paid any attention.

The party was over and Hawke and Edward drove back to the studio.

Nicole called Edward and said that many people at the shelter had taken leave today, so she wanted him to go and help.

Hawke simply gave Edward a vacation.

He took some beer and the Taser, crossed Fountain Street, went to the parking lot across the street, and found Frank sitting on a lounge chair under a parasol.

The old man didn't hesitate. He put away the Taser, took the beer handed to him by Hawke, opened a can and took a sip. Then he pointed to the folding chair next to him and said, "Sit anywhere you want."

Hawke also opened a can of beer and said, "You are so lucky. You have such a leisurely life every day and can enjoy a stable retirement."

"You can too." Frank pointed to the empty space next to him with his eyes: "You can buy an old RV for a few thousand dollars and drive it over to be our neighbors."

He handed over the broken ashtray Hawke had given him: "Remember to take this with you and put it on the side of the road. It's a no-cost business."

Hawke said, "I'm not like you. I have so many old friends to help me. If I just occupy territory on the street, I will get beaten."

Begging also has its own territory.

Frank said, "It's okay. I've got you covered."

Hawke skipped the topic and clinked cans with Frank: "Thanks for the phone call."

Frank said, "In the eyes of others, this is just a small matter that can be done easily. If it is really a big matter, do you think they will help?"

Hawke can see more: "It's not a small matter for me. It can save me a lot of trouble. As long as the people in the Shorty Gang are not fools, they can find out that I have an LAPD exemption card and have a relationship with a big shot in the LAPD."

Frank interjected, "She's also got a close relationship with a rich chick from the LAPD. That chick shot Robert Downey Jr. in the street, and not only did she not get blamed, she even got a promotion. If she were an ordinary police officer, I'd give you my head to use as a football."

Hawke continued what he had just said: "For so many days, I have been sleeping with a gun in my arms every night, but the Shorty Gang has never come to trouble me."

"It means they are not stupid." Frank thought of the studio across the street and couldn't help laughing. He then said, "Your house is too scary. They don't dare to come."

Hawke said, "I also designed some gadgets, but it looks like they won't be used." Frank told the truth, "With the speed at which you mess things up, they'll be used soon. I strongly suggest you install more. I think it won't be enough if you install less."

Hawke thought it made sense: "I'll go to the hardware market later."

Frank drove them away: "Go away. I'm old and out of fashion. You can't get anything out of me, and you can't find a way to get to heaven."

The other party was old and shrewd, so Hawke didn't stay for long and said, "I'll treat you to a drink another day."

Frank said, "Leave all the beer."

Hawke returned to the studio and stood at the window, looking at the RV across the road.

The network of personal connections is developed step by step, radiating to a wider range through one person.

Frank, Eric, Katherine, Dwayne Johnson, Miss Baa, Erica, Megan Thee, and even Edward can all act as the outstretched hand.

Hawke thought of Megan Taylor, looked in the closet, pulled out a brand new bottle of pepper spray, and stuffed it into his pocket.

This female anchor of Fox Channel 11 is currently his biggest financial sponsor.

It’s not just about selling news.

From what she saw with Dwayne Johnson, as long as the news is true, she will adopt it.

In other words, some things related to operations and public relations can also be accomplished through her.

It is necessary to maintain good relationships and show concern.

And there is Miss Mee, who maintains an exquisite lifestyle by relying on US dollars and hopes to be blinded by greed.

Hawke is not afraid of her greed, but is afraid that she is not greedy.

Only out of greed can one try to get as many endorsements as possible for Sarah Parker.

Hawke remembered what they had talked about today and searched for Steve and Daisy Nutter on the Internet.

The former is the star player of the MLB Los Angeles Dodgers and hit 47 home runs last season.

The latter is a model who has walked the runway for many big brands including Valentino. After marrying Steve, her fame soared. The couple also created a common business brand following the example of the Olsen sisters.

To put it simply, the two are like the American baseball version of Beckham and Victoria.

This celebrity couple together achieves the effect of one plus one being greater than two.

However, their influence is limited to North America.

Hawke found the two people's blogs during the search and clicked on them to take a look.

The blog has a lot of traffic, and its recent content is all photos of Daisy's big belly.

The two have been preparing for the birth of their child.

Hawke speculated that it might be part of a copyright agreement for the baby photos.

The latest blog post was published today and includes six photos.

In the photo, Steve and Daisy are standing in front of a bed while the other is lying on the bed, obviously in a hospital ward.

The caption on it reads: "Looking forward to our angel coming."

A celebrity's private life can be exchanged for money if managed well.

Hawke closed the webpage, turned on the security switch, and rushed out to Century City. There was a large supermarket in the shopping mall with a full range of hardware products.

He also purchased some tools and hardware to strengthen the security of the studio.

The West Coast studio basically doesn't accept any walk-in clients, and any uninvited guests are just malicious bastards.

After shopping, Hawke went to a brand store on Rodeo Drive and ordered two suits and matching shirts and shoes.

Clothes for climbing and jumping should be sturdy and wear-resistant, and clothes for business occasions should also be presentable.

Hawke paid the deposit, left Rodeo Drive, and came to the Fox Center.
