Great Artist

Rikers Island is an isolated island in Queens, New York City, not far from LaGuardia Airport. This small island, which covers an area of ​​less than 0.6 square miles, is home to less than 10,000 residents. According to normal thinking, it should be a peaceful paradise. But in fact, Rikers Island is famous for its prison on the island. Rikers Island Prison, with nearly 10,000 prisoners, is known as the "Grave" together with the center of the Bureau Building of the Criminal Court.

The entertainment industry in October is full of excitement, but all of this has nothing to do with Riker Island, which is also affiliated with New York, but it seems to be another world. On an ordinary afternoon, Craig Cook was wearing a gray prison uniform, lying on his bed, with a radio on his head that he bought from a dealer for nearly five times the price. .

This is the only way he can receive information from the outside world, and the only way he can spend his dark life in prison. On the radio came the voices of Evan Bell, Avril Lavigne and the host talking and laughing, and Craig Cook was very calm. The winner is the king, the loser is the bandit. Craig Cook doesn't know the truth. It's just that after this big somersault, he's mature, ridiculously mature. Craig Cook has been thinking about why it was overturned at the last moment and why Evan Bell was able to turn the tide in the end. Craig-Cook has been meditating for the past three months.

"Nine-five-two-seven-four, someone is visiting." The prison guard's voice came out, interrupting Craig Cook's contemplation. The prison guard's cold and irritable voice contrasted sharply with the laughter on the radio. Craig Cook sat up straight, put on his shoes and prepared to go out.

However, Craig Cook took only two steps, and the roommate on the opposite side suddenly sat up, almost subconsciously conditioned reflex, Craig Cook took a step back, the panic on his face was obvious, his hands were even Trembling slightly. The roommate on the opposite side just stretched and said with a smile, "It's a beautiful afternoon, it would be better if there was a cigarette." Craig Cook's eyes were fixed on the man opposite, the prison guard outside The impatient voice came again, and after Craig Cook was sure that the roommate would not pounce, he walked out quickly.

It was only when he reached the visiting room that Craig Cook calmed down again. Only then did he have the energy to think about who came to visit him. You know, in the past three months, no one has ever come to visit him.

Since Craig Cook is not a felon, there is no need to pass through glass when visiting prisons. They can chat face-to-face directly on both sides of the table, and allow the visiting personnel to bring some simple daily necessities to pass in.

Craig Cook walked into the room and saw three or four tables full of people, but he looked around, but he didn't find any familiar faces. The man sitting in the right corner raised his hand and said "Cook. Here."

Craig-Cook walked in that direction and looked at the person coming. The appearance of the person coming here is very ordinary, which makes it difficult to describe his facial features in words. It is an ordinary American who is thrown into the crowd and immediately disappears into the sea of ​​people. The only thing that can be used as a sign may be the green stubble, which is connected to the entire chin. It seems that he is a person with strong hair. If he has a beard, it will be very suitable, but he has to shave all his beards, so the green onion is a bit nondescript.

"Hello, I'm Alex Caleri." The person introduced himself with his right hand out.

Craig-Cook did not shake hands, but looked suspiciously at the man named Alex-Caleri, paused for a while, and then said, "Are you sent by the company?" , referring to Universal Music, of course.

Alex Caleri is not necessarily embarrassed, he still smiled and retracted his right hand "Yes. It's nice to meet you." From this point of view alone, Alex Caleri is better than a general Craig Cook, with his arrogant and arrogant face, is even more sophisticated. There are mountain high mountain.

After getting the confirmed [answer], Craig Cook sneered, "I just think about me now, how is it, did you come to complete the deal with me?"

As for Craig Cook's attitude, Alex Ten Riley doesn't seem to mind at all. The smile on his face has not changed from beginning to end. A thin layer of cold sweat. This seemingly ordinary man without any characteristics will be sent by Universal Music to meet Craig Cook, and this matter alone is not easy.

"Yes." Alex Peak Leary said with a smile, "I only joined the company in August, so it is normal that Mr. Cook does not know me. I am now accepting the job before Mr. Cook, I'm in a melancholy mood." A simple sentence explained his origin.

Alex Kaleri paused and found that Craig Cook had no intention of speaking, and then continued to say, "Let's get you out of prison in advance, we can't take the initiative to start this matter, after all, the company's current public relations The crisis has not yet passed, and we will not take risks. However, the previous transactions are still counted. Today, I came here to ask if you have someone you can trust? I will give the cash to him. "

With these words, if there is a reporter next to me, I will definitely be so excited that I can't help myself.

Universal Music is making a deal with Craig Cook, what does that mean? Could it be said that in the July slander incident, standing behind Craig Cook is Universal Music! It just happened that the Universal Music warrior broke his wrist and took Craig-Cook as a victim! This is definitely big news that shocked the entertainment industry.

Hearing Alex Caleri's words, Craig Cook's face changed, but out of the corner of his eye he realized that there were a lot of people around him. After all, he suppressed it. He leaned forward and lowered his voice. Speaking of "Now that the limelight has passed, does the company want to tear up the deal?"

Alex Caleri still has the same smiling face, which is strange to say, even though he has always been smiling, there is no smile on his ordinary face, which makes it impossible to feel joy, humility. , disgust, yīn danger and other emotions. "Precisely because the limelight has passed,

I'm only here, isn't it? If the company wants to tear up the deal, I won't show up, Mr. Cook. "

It's been three months since the defamation incident, and indeed no one remembers it anymore. The media is forgetful, the Internet is forgetful, even if the sky falls, it will not last for a month of freshness. Now, the two prisoners, Craig Cook and Heidi-méng Gomery, have been completely forgotten in unknown corners. Therefore, the appearance of Alex Caleri will not cause any suspicion. But Universal Music is still very cautious, letting a newcomer who has just joined the company for more than two months to meet Craig-Cook will reduce the possibility of being discovered by the media.

Universal Music is so careful that no one would believe it even if the slander incident had nothing to do with the company before.

Craig-Cook finally couldn't bear it any longer, gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words, "Since the transaction is going to continue, what did you mean just now? This won't work, that won't work either!"

Alex Tenley smiled indifferently, "It literally means." This smile made Craig Cook's blood suddenly feel cold. Although he expected the cold blood of big companies, he still didn't expect them to be so ruthless. !

"Aren't you afraid...," Craig-Cook almost roared out, his pale eyes widened with anger, staring at Alex Carrey with bloodshot eyes, as if at any moment There is a possibility of an outbreak.

Alex Caleri interrupted him, smiling and said, "Afraid of what? Afraid that you say the company is behind the slander? Mr. Cook, you wouldn't be so naive to think someone would believe you?" "Alex Ten Riley also leaned forward and whispered in Craig-Cook's ear, "In fact, the defamation company is not involved. It will cause greater reputational damage to the company, let you take the initiative to appear in court, promote the implementation of legal justice, and then let you obediently go to prison, not to entangle with Evan and Bell. That's all." , Alex Caleri stepped back a little and met Craig Cook's eyes "Even if you make this public ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ no one will come to investigate the company. The responsibility of the company, but will think that the company is doing justice, won't it?"

Hearing Alex-Caleri's aggressive words, Craig-Cook calmed down instead, and if Alex-Caleri had been like a robot without ups and downs, he wouldn't be sure. Now, Craig Cook is more comfortable.

"No, you ignore how much the media suffered in the previous incident. If they know the company is forcing me to plead guilty, they will learn about the case as soon as possible: If they know that the company is preventing Lou from suing me against Evan Bell's attack: If they knew that my fine was paid for by the company...well, what do you think the media would think?"

After Craig-Cook finished speaking, he clearly saw a flash of disgust in Alex-Kaleri's eyes. He knew that his words touched the other party, otherwise the other party's emotions would not change. Craig Cook went on to say, "Even if the media believes that the company is not directly involved, but my planning...my actions, the company will definitely know, otherwise there would not be so many media and so many producers willing to participate. Because they all thought I was representing the company's position!"

Craig-Cook stared into the eyes of Alex Peak Leary, and the words squeezed out one by one from the gaps between the teeth "So, does it really matter that the company is directly involved?"! .
