"Bang! Bang..."

The gunshots rang out one after another, and the bloody man who had just struggled to get up jumped out of dazzling flowers, and finally fell to the ground, and several policemen carefully surrounded him.

The video played on the screen ended here. In the No. 1 editing room of Channel 6, Carla took a deep breath, and her excited eyes had already turned into incredible, as if Columbus discovered a new world.

"You can all go," Kara said to the others nearby. "You go out first."

She turned her head and looked at Murphy, who was sitting next to her. "I was completely blown away! The filming was amazing! I can't find the right words to describe this video."

Murphy also turned to look at her, "Thank you."

"It's amazing." Cara seemed to be intoxicated by the shock of the video, "This is exactly the news effect I've been looking for!"

"Thank you." Murphy said politely.

"No, Murphy, don't say thank you." Carla shook her head. "It's me who should say thank you, and I want to thank you for bringing it to me."

"You're too kind." Murphy reached out and patted Carla's arm lightly. "We're friends, aren't we?"

Carla backhanded Murphy's hand and made no secret of the desire in her eyes, "This video must be mine, it must be!"

Since he came here first, Carla was of course Murphy's first choice. He asked, "Honey, how much are you willing to pay?"

That said, if the price is not right, Murphy will definitely not sell it to Kara and Channel 6.

The last news video had greatly boosted the show's ratings. Cara knew exactly what kind of sensational effect the episode in front of her could cause, and said, "Tell me what the price should be."

Murphy is also welcome, "One hundred thousand dollars."

A video of such a real shootout between police and gangsters, as well as a video of people being shot dead, blood flying, and a series of car chases and crashes, can be said to be rare for several years. Cara just pondered for a few seconds and said, "I can give Your price, but the video should be seen by my superior, as long as he has no opinion."

Commercial TV, what do you need?

Therefore, the result is not surprising at all. After watching the video, Kara's boss not only agreed to the price of 100,000 US dollars, but also promised Murphy that the Fox Los Angeles local station would assist him in solving some police and legal problems and avoid court injunctions as much as possible. This allows both parties to continue to dig deeper into the story behind the case.

To put it bluntly, the TV station can agree to the following conditions, and also understand that once the news video of this case is broadcast, it will inevitably attract widespread attention, and the investigation of the follow-up incident will bring more viewers to the TV station.

Like Murphy, TV stations won't do anything that doesn't help.

"Send the video and my text plan to the studio."

After an editor left with the video materials, Carla and Murphy were left in the editing room. She came to Murphy and said, "The check for $100,000 can be exchanged early tomorrow morning."

Murphy flipped through the cash check in his hand and said with emotion, "This is the most money I've ever made."

"One hundred thousand dollars!" Carrara brought a chair and sat next to Murphy. "Save some money."

"It's a huge amount of money for me, and it's going to have a lot of uses." Murphy put away the check and turned to look at Carla, "People like you don't understand how hard it is for people like us to make money. ."

The other party came from a good background, graduated from a famous university, and became the director of the news department of a TV station at the age of twenty-six. How could he understand the difficulties of life for someone like him.

Kara was silent for a moment,

She had seen many people who came out of the slums, but she was the first to work as hard as Murphy.

She appreciates such hard work, for those who keep moving forward in the future.

"You should get a lawyer for yourself."

No matter what the purpose was, the other party was able to send the video here first, which was a big favor to her. Cara said with a rare conscience, "The police will cause you a lot of trouble later."

Although Murphy previously said that the two murderers were not photographed, Carla can now guess a lot.

"I already have a lawyer." Murphy laughed. "And I'm doing my duty as a good citizen."

Kara directly rolled her eyes. If the people on the opposite side were good citizens of Los Angeles, the two murderers who died would be considered honorary citizens of Los Angeles.

The door of the editing room was knocked, and a middle-aged man walked in, "Kara, do you really want to broadcast these videos in the show? In the way you set?"

"That's right." Carla put away her smile and turned her head to look over, "Is there a problem?"

"You are provoking racial confrontation by doing this!" The middle-aged man approached and emphasized, "This may cause a series of social problems."

Carla didn't even think about it, "That's what I want."

"What?" The middle-aged man seemed unable to believe his ears, "You are creating confusion through the news."

"Manufactured? Isn't it true that a white police officer shot a black man without any resistance!" Carla emphasized again, "This is something that no one can deny."

Hearing this, even Murphy had to look at Kara with admiration. He didn't even think about it. The black man who died in the end didn't seem to be a threat at all, and the white police still shot him...

Compared with Kara, in terms of news touch, I am really far behind! Murphy also fully understands why Kara and the TV station are willing to accept the price of 100,000 dollars and provide assistance when necessary. Compared with what they paid, this video can bring them too much.

As for whether this will lead to racial confrontation, who cares about the TV station? They can't wait for this to happen, so that there will be enough eye-catching news.

"We are in journalism." Carla stared at the editor and said in a serious tone, "We must have higher pursuits!"

The editor was dumbfounded and opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything. Under the pressure of the sharp eyes like a kara sword, he slowly exited the editing room.

"That's great."

When the door of the editing room closed, Murphy stood up and said, "We can't be constrained by the present, we should have further and higher pursuits."

Carla caught something and asked, "Do you have any ideas?"

"Yeah, this video can bring us more." Murphy took a few steps back and forth. "We can make a continuous feature program that specifically emphasizes black suspects and white police..."

Murphy is very clear about what kind of contradiction these two can stimulate. "Follow the report in this direction, and then find out the past news in this area to broadcast, strengthen the news effect, and when the timeliness of the news weakens, you can also produce into a documentary."

"Good idea!" Kara's eyes brightened.

Murphy reminded, "To do this, you must first avoid the court's press ban."

"Such a news ban will not happen." Carla looked confident. "Don't forget, Channel Six belongs to the Fox Network!"

Murphy doesn't know exactly how powerful Rupert Murdoch's Fox network is, but he knows it's huge.

As if they had met life confidants, the two stayed in the first editing room and heatedly discussed various follow-up possibilities.

Carla and Murphy, one seeking fame and one seeking profit, hit it off.

The time was getting closer to six o'clock in the morning, and the morning news was about to be broadcast. Murphy followed Kara and walked into the editing hall behind the scenes. Now he can be regarded as a regular customer of this TV station, and under normal circumstances, no one will come over. Prevent.

When the news was about to be broadcast, Murphy and Cara did not expect, and the police followed the clues all the way to this side.

"Who's in charge here?"

The one who led the team here was the middle-aged male detective who asked Murphy last time, "We are from the Los Angeles Police Department's major crime team."

He pointed to the video of the shootout displayed on the screen and said, "These are not allowed to be played, all are handed over to the police, including all replicas."

The middle-aged police detective is majestic, and it seems that he has the final say here.

Murphy and Carla looked at each other and made a please gesture.

"What are you doing?" Kara walked over quickly, "I'm the director of the news department, you can contact me if you have any questions."

"I ask you to put these shootouts, car chases..." The middle-aged police detective pointed to the screen again, "Collect them all, don't allow them to be played again, these are..."

"Sorry," he was interrupted by Carla before he could finish his words, "this is Channel Six's property."

"This is criminal evidence!" The middle-aged police detective stared at Kara, who was unmoved, "What evidence? This is our news!"

Carla's attitude was very tough, and the female police detective next to the middle-aged police detective said at the right time, "Now there are two police officers dying in the hospital, four people are dead, eleven people are injured, and there are a lot of violent and vicious crimes. extremely important evidence."

However, Carla was unmoved and crossed her arms, "This is the news that the TV station must broadcast."

"You are strictly forbidden to play!" The middle-aged police detective roared.

"Are you going to interfere with the freedom of the press?" Carla looked at the middle-aged police detective and said calmly, "If you want to take these away, if you want to ban TV stations, that's fine."

She said word by word, "Please show the court's injunction!"

"You..." The middle-aged detective didn't seem to know what to say.

Kara said to the security guards who followed the police, "The show is about to start, please go out."

After speaking, she said to the two detectives, "If you still have questions, our legal department will contact you. That's it, I still have work to do, thank you."

This is the media department after all, and the police didn't dare to do much, so they had no choice but to leave temporarily, watching the video shot by Murphy on the morning news of Channel 6, which became the social focus of public discussion in Los Angeles.

After the news broadcast, Murphy asked the security guard at the door and walked to Kara, "There are still police outside, it looks like I'm going to the police station."

"Don't forget to contact your lawyer," Carla reminded.
