The Wolf of Los Angeles - Chapter 291

Found the mineral water, Hawke poured Megan a glass of water, placed it on the bedside table, and asked directly, “Want me to help you compete for the position of the director?”

“We said that we only intervene in the body, not in life.” Meghan still remembers this, so he deliberately said it as a deal, so that Hawke would not have any concerns: “I have never given him anyway when we were together in the past few years. No obstacles you bring will come in the future.”

She looked at Hawke: “I was born in a broken family. I never thought about starting a family and not having children. Apart from work and career, there is only the happiness you bring to me. If one day you are tired of it, I will do it myself I will leave quietly.”

Hawke picked up the cup and fed her water: “You’re thinking too much.”

Meghan drank water and said, “Although the online media is emerging, traditional TV media will not weaken in a short period of time. If I become the director of Channel 11, I will gain great autonomy in news reports and can make up for you. The flaw of weak voice in traditional media. Although I don’t know what you want to do, I can feel what you are planning for so long…”

Hawke has no need to deny this, after all, Meghan is the person who works with him the most in the media.

Meghan has been in contact with Caroline recently and seems to be contagious, which has triggered the temptation of succubus: “No matter what you want to do, will the effect be better when new media and traditional TV media work together?”

“You successfully convinced me.” Hawke also took a sip of the water in the cup: “Now, we must first figure out where the opponent is, what are the specific identity and background, what are the advantages and weaknesses, and what are the people on the TV network that can really decide. What are there.”

Meghan has been thinking for the past two days: “The final decision was made by the chairman’s office, which is Roger Ayers. But I won’t go to him. Inside Fox TV, everyone knows to let him go through informal channels. What does it take to promote? I would rather not have this job.”

She expressed her attitude and said, “The ones that are truly competitive are the other two deputy directors of Channel 11, Manninger Jenkinson and Renee Russell.”

“I need detailed information about these two people, and Roger Ayers’, including people who can influence Roger Ayers, such as Cynthia Rosberg,” Hawke said.

Megan nodded: “I will sort out the detailed information as soon as possible.”

Background checks are necessary to develop targeted plans.

Hawke thought for a while and said, “You stay in the hospital first, don’t go out for the time being.”

Meghan cooperated with him many times and immediately understood: “I won’t go out for the time being, just watch the other competitors fight.”

When Elsa came back, Hawke said goodbye and left Sida Senai Medical Center.

After getting in the car, he called Campos and asked him to check the basic situations of Manninger Jenkinson and Renee Russell.

Just as the phone hung up, Brian called over: “I heard you and Erica are back?”

“I arrived in Los Angeles yesterday afternoon,” Hawke said.

Brian asked, “Where are you? Meet.”

Hawke looked out the window and said, “See Beverly Business Club, an old place.”

“I may be slower than you did.” Brian on the other side brought some information and called the driver out.

Hawke hung up the phone and asked Edward to drive directly to Century City.

Edward looked at Hawke from the rearview mirror and asked carefully, “Boss, no accident happened this time, right?”

“Huh?” Hawke said to himself, even you think that something will happen if I go out? This is wrong, right?

He said seriously: “Savior, you have to understand one thing: every time someone wants to harm me, not because I am in an accident.”

Edward said intently: “A few days ago, while having a barbecue on Venice Beach, that old **** Frank asked me to pay attention to the Florida newspaper and said that you will soon see the news about the dead people in Florida.”

Hawke said, “Not this time, right?”

Edward cleared his throat and said, “I read the Orlando Guardian. There is a report on it that two hunting guides were accompanying customers from California to fall into the water while hunting. They were attacked by crocodiles and were not even recovered. Come.”

Hearing this, Hawke remembered the two assistants of the bearded Duran, as well as the DEA team he encountered on his return trip.

Accident? The attacker is probably not a crocodile.

Both assistants were hunting guides who were familiar with the environment.

Hawke can only say that the people who ban drugs in the United States are also the largest dealer.

He heard Erica mention more than once that some of the goods seized by LAPD will disappear from the warehouse every year.

When it reaches a certain level, someone will be sent out to be convicted and sentenced to a maximum of five years in prison. After entering, a series of sentence reductions will be released in one year.

The latest one came out in more than half a year.

These are the default rules of LAPD. Not to mention Erica, even Carter Ferguson, a member of the five-member committee, didn’t touch much.

Hawke said: “I hunted some delicious prey in Orlando and I will send it to Frank some when the cold chain is transported.”

When Edward spoke with Hawke on the phone before, he heard him mention it: “The kind of lizard you mentioned? I haven’t eaten a lizard yet.”

“It tastes good.” Hawke remembered the lizard meat processed in the Chinese restaurant and said, “When the goods arrive, you can get some back.”

Edward was very interested: “Okay.”

When he arrived at the Beverly Business Club, Hawke entered a reception room. After waiting for a short while, Brian rushed over from outside.

As soon as he saw Hawke, he smiled and said, “It’s really strange. You didn’t encounter any accidents this time.”

Hawke was helpless and fought back: “Because you, the leader of the Cursed God Cult, shut up the crow’s mouth.” Looking back now, if he and Erica hadn’t retreated decisively, they might have been with DEA ​​or the team disguised as DEA. A gunfight broke out.

Bryan fell into deep self-doubt and spoke again and again, and an unexpected situation broke out.

This time he didn’t say much, or even think about it, Hawke and Erica’s journey was so smooth.

“Unscientific!” Brian shook his head: “Unscientific!”

Hawke patted him on the shoulder: “You are supernatural and have nothing to do with science.”

He changed the topic: “The bear specimen you want, I will help you get it done. I will kill a black bear that is nearly two meters tall. The specimen will be transported back to Los Angeles around the New Year, so you can wait to receive it.”

Brian laughed, “That’s great, this is a symbol of my courage!”

“Just be happy.” Hawke can only say that.

Brian opened the briefcase, took out several documents and handed them to Hawke, and said, “Look first.”

Hawke took it, sat on the sofa, and looked carefully.

This is a copy of the document prepared by Los Angeles City Hall, originated from the mayor’s office, marked with the incumbent mayor Antonio.

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!

Most of the contents of the document are related to next year’s public relations budget and expenses.

For example, there are parts involving LAPD and those related to silicon beaches.

The Los Angeles Municipal Government is preparing to increase support for Silicon Beach, but on the list of supporting companies, Silicon Beach’s Twitter company currently has the most influential Twitter account, ranks relatively behind.

Twitter is very high in terms of state government offers and support.

In Los Angeles, the policies you will enjoy next year will be average.

Although the social division in the United States is far less serious than it has been since 2010, when the current commander said that if you are not on my side, you are on the side of the enemy, the social and political landscape is developing rapidly in this direction.

This is of course a good thing in Hawke’s eyes.

Brian said at this time: “Antonio canceled some preferential policies that Twitter enjoys this year.”

Hawke was not surprised, but the Elephant Party was not useless in Los Angeles. The previous Elephant Party mayor Richard Ryerden stepped down in 2001 and has been in office for more than eight years.

It has been less than three years since the donkey party regained the position of mayor.

“There is another budget that you focus on, and it’s the last one, and it’s also the political project that Antonio focuses on next year,” Brian reminded.

Hawke quickly flips to the back of the file.

“Antonio is preparing to work comprehensively with several major feminist groups in Los Angeles to allow the Los Angeles Fire Department to allocate $8.5 million to recruit new employees,” Brian said.

Hawke has seen it.

The current mayor of Los Angeles, in order to cater to feminist organizations and gain support from female citizens, asked the fire department to increase the proportion of female employees, with a $7.5 million budget dedicated to recruiting female firefighters.

Brian said directly: “Antonio is taking Los Angeles’ public budget and buying support from female citizens!”

He shook his head: “Women go to be firefighters. Once the wildfire is burning, how many women who demand privilege dare to rush forward? Can they withstand the pressure of high-pressure water gun erupting?”

Maybe you want to extinguish the fire baby? Hawke looked through the documents: “The current proportion of female firefighters is 0.35%, and he wants to increase the proportion of females to more than 30%.

“It’s crazy.” Brian, an unreliable guy, felt that there were serious problems and a lot of hidden dangers in this budget: “We should mobilize our forces to stop him in the city council!”

Hawke put down the file, thought for a while, and asked, “Why should I stop it?”

“This could ruin the city, and there are severe wildfires in Los Angeles every year,” Brian said.

Hawke said slowly, “This is exactly your chance.”

Brian used to think from the perspective of Los Angeles. When he heard Hawke’s words, he quickly stood on the politician’s position.

He pinched his chin and thought for a moment: “The wildfire can’t be controlled and it burned to the residential area…”

“The real poor live in downtown and in reinforced concrete buildings in Hollywood,” Hawke said.

Brian nodded: “Yes, those who can live near the mountains and forests are at least wealthy middle-class people.”

Hawke said again: “Los Angeles has less precipitation and is generally drought. I heard that water supply was sold to private companies. Is there any such thing?”

“It seems.” Brian couldn’t remember clearly: “I remember a water bank that bought most of the shares of freshwater resources in Los Angeles to develop the planting industry. I need to check what’s going on.”

The two discussed this matter for a long time and reached some tacit understanding.

Before leaving, Brian said again: “Hilton Group is preparing to hold a collaborator party in Los Angeles. Have you received the invitation?” (End of this chapter)
