Wang Tie also saw the image on the screen and scratched his head in annoyance. After thinking for a while, he said, "Open the door."
"Godfather, are you really going to open it? Should we check to see if there are other people around? "Fu Rui was worried.
"No need, open the door."
Wang Tie knew that if Fang Zhao really wanted to deal with him, he would not have waited until now and pressed the doorbell so gently.
Fu Rui had no choice but to listen to Wang Tie. He opened the door and quickly retreated, afraid that he would be beaten.
If it had been any other celebrity, he wouldn't have acted this way. But because he followed Wang Tie and knew that Wang Tie was afraid of Fang Zhao, Fu Rui was on his guard.
Before this, Fu Rui had not paid much attention to Fang Zhao. He had thought that Fang Zhao was just so-so. He was not as impressive as the news had reported, nor was he as terrifying as Wang Tie had made him out to be. But now, he had to reevaluate his judgment.
Ever since they had started following Wang Tie as entertainment reporters to secretly film celebrities, they had always been the ones to stop the celebrities. This was the first time they had been stopped by a celebrity. His mood was really complicated.
Fang Zhao walked in. His gaze lightly swept across Xiao Bo and Fu Rui before landing on Wang Tie, who was leaning against the sofa.
"I've been looking for you recently."
The first thing Fang Zhao said when he entered the room made Wang Tie want to kneel.
Wang Tie roared in his heart. Why are you looking for me instead of your next concert?!
Fu Rui and Xiao Bo looked at Fang Zhao in astonishment and then looked at Wang Tie, as if it was inconceivable that Fang Zhao could recognize Wang Tie at first sight. Usually, if Wang Tie did not take the initiative to reveal his identity, it would be difficult for the two of them to recognize him.
Today, Wang Tie was wearing a face he had never used before. His disguise was very good. However, Wang Tie was already used to being recognized by Fang Zhao and did not feel the slightest bit surprised.
Seeing Fang Zhao walk into the house, Xiao Bo's eyes flashed, and a cold smile hung on his lips. His whole body was like a leopard that had been accumulating power for a long time as he pounced toward Fang Zhao.
However, the dagger in Xiao Bo's hand stopped an arm's length away from Fang Zhao.
A gun was pointed at Xiao Bo's forehead.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly froze.
Xiao Bo had always thought that he was good at fighting, but no matter how good he was at fighting, he was not faster than the speed of a bullet!!
During this process, Fang Zhao did not even glance at Xiao Bo.
As soon as he entered, Fang Zhao knew that this newbie reporter was different from other entertainment reporters. He had experience, blood on his hands, and he was a little untamed. Therefore, if he wanted this reporter to know his place, he had to intimidate him right from the start.
Just as Fang Zhao had thought, if it had been nice words, Xiaobo really wouldn't have been so apprehensive and might even have probed him a few more times. But now, Xiaobo already didn't dare make any other moves.
Yes, both parties did not reveal any real killing intent. It was just the first time they met. However, Xiao Bo did not know if it was because of the cold air from the air conditioner or if it was a psychological effect, but he felt that the lights in the room seemed to carry a terrifying chill.
I almost forgot that this person has the legal right to carry a gun.
The taut muscles on Wang Tie's cheeks twitched. Then, like a stiff rock that had finally melted, he smiled and said, "Xiaobo."
Xiao Bo glanced at Wang Tie. After receiving the signal from Wang Tie's eyes, he withdrew his dagger and retreated to the side.
On the other side, Fang Zhao also kept his gun, walked over to a chair, and sat down. He was even calmer than the three house owners.
Fu Rui, who was standing stiffly at the side, felt that the atmosphere needed to be livened up. He looked left and right, took out a plate of melon seeds from a cabinet, and placed it on the tea table in front of Fang Zhao. "Great God, do you want some melon seeds?"
Hearing this form of address, one could tell that he was a gamer. Nowadays, only gaming fans would address Fang Zhao this way.
Fu Rui loved to play games, but he didn't play them that deeply. He also didn't worship Fang Zhao. He just wanted to liven up the atmosphere and disperse the silent atmosphere in the room.
After carrying the plate of melon seeds, Fu Rui brewed a cup of tea.
"Great God, have some tea."
Fang Zhao smiled faintly. "Thank you."
Fu Rui looked at Fang Zhao's face, which had become much warmer because of his smile, and thought to himself, If not for that situation, I would have thought that Fang Zhao would be easy to deal with!
As for Wang Tie, he had already gone through all the recent deals in his mind and confirmed that he had not provoked Fang Zhao. Or perhaps some celebrity had asked Fang Zhao to plead for him?
That would be troublesome.
After all, as the paparazzi king of Yanzhou, he had to have some dignity, right? How could he let something he had gone through so much trouble go to waste? If he wanted to buy it back, that was fine. If he wanted to lower the price, that was fine too, but he couldn't go overboard!
In that short moment, Wang Tie had already decided how he would respond in such a situation.
No matter what he thought, he couldn't be weak. Otherwise, it would seem like he had a guilty conscience.
Wang Tie had just decided that he couldn't be subdued by force when he heard Fang Zhao ask, "There's a business deal. Do you want to take it?"
Wang Tie raised his eyebrows in astonishment. He hadn't expected that Fang Zhao would actually come looking for him to discuss business and not to help some celebrity buy something to secretly photograph.
However, Wang Tie didn't agree immediately. "Tell me."
"Nova Roman."
Not long ago, the film project team for "Founding Era" had confirmed that Nova Roman would be the project's lead director. At the same time, he also had the right to choose the actors.
As a world-class director with both ability and background, Nova Roman wasn't afraid of offending A-list and super-A-list celebrities, but he didn't like to be disturbed. Thus, before the director team's name list was announced, Nova Roman had cleverly gone into hiding.
In the news online, there were often people saying that they had seen the lead director of this phenomenal project, but it was either fabricated by certain people to attract attention, or it was a smokescreen set up by Nova Roman. His actual whereabouts were still unclear.
This time, Wang Tie was really curious.
"You are just a musician. What do you want information about him for? Don't tell me you really want to act? Or are you asking on behalf of someone from your company? "
Fang Zhao didn't reply. Instead, he asked, "Do you accept?"
This time, Wang Tie took a little longer to consider.
Fang Zhao didn't disturb him and waited quietly.
Two minutes later.
Wang Tie wrote down a number.
Fang Zhao glanced at it. "Sure."
This time, Wang Tie was very straightforward. "Accept!"
His business didn't stop at Yanzhou, and his contacts weren't limited to just one continent. As long as it was within the entertainment circles, there was nothing he didn't want to investigate. All he needed to do was spend a little more effort. Furthermore, he had always been studying this lead director's movements, and he already had some leads.
Wang Tie had originally planned to sell the information at a high price to some ambitious celebrities who were vying for a role after obtaining concrete information. However, since Fang Zhao had come looking for him and offered a straightforward price, Wang Tie agreed to sell the information to Fang Zhao.
"How long will it take?" Fang Zhao asked.
"If it's just his area of activity, I can give you a rough estimate right now. If it's a specific location, give me two days," Wang Tie replied.
After Wang Tie told Fang Zhao the area where Director Roman was located, Fang Zhao transferred half of the money to the account Wang Tie had given him. The other half would be transferred after Wang Tie gave him the exact location.
When deciding to fight for a role, Fang Zhao had thought of Wang Tie, Yanzhou's paparazzi king. In terms of familiarity with the entertainment circles and perception of the movements of people in the industry, Wang Tie indeed had the advantage. Fang Zhao also knew that Wang Tie had already returned to Yanzhou from planet Wai. It just so happened that Wang Tie had gone to the Fiery Bird branch today, so Fang Zhao had tracked him down.
After obtaining satisfactory information, Fang Zhao left quickly, leaving time for Wang Tie and his team.
After Fang Zhao left, the stiff smile on Wang Tie's face disappeared. His eyelids drooped slightly as he stared at a cup of cold tea on the coffee table.
His fingers tapped the sides of the cup and watched the ripples within. Wang Tie's intuition told him that this time, he would probably get some big entertainment news, but should he follow up? When the time came, what should he do if he really managed to find out some information?
Xiao Bo immediately checked his electronic account after Fang Zhao left. Previously, when Fang Zhao had been here, it had not been convenient for him to check. Now that he had confirmed it, he could not help but reveal a satisfied smile.
Looking at the new amount in his account, Xiao Bo sighed. "Godfather, this is not a risk, this is an opportunity!"
Wang Tie gave him a sidelong glance. "What do you know!"
"Yes, yes, yes, Master, whatever you say is right!" Xiao Bo grinned. Following which, his expression became serious. "Now I really know. Just like Master said, it's better for us to keep our distance from people like Fang Zhao."
To be able to follow them all the way here and even block their doorstep, this was not something anyone could do.
Taking a deep breath, Wang Tie said, "This place can't be used anymore. We have to change locations."
There was no sense of security here. He did not want to see Fang Zhao's face appear at his doorstep the moment he opened the door. Furthermore, what if Fang Zhao sold their address?
They had so many enemies. The number of celebrities they had extorted money from could not be counted with three hands. What if someone found out about the address and took revenge on them?
You could take on five at once, but could you take on 50 at once?
Therefore, to be on the safe side, it was better to change locations.
After all, these were all temporary residences. When it came to work, they might not be staying in the same place for a few days. There was no sense of belonging or nostalgia.
A crafty rabbit had three burrows. They had plenty of places to stay.
"Godfather, what were you thinking about just now? You look so conflicted, "Fu Rui asked.
Wang Tie scanned his surroundings and then waved at the two of them.
Seeing Wang Tie like this, the two of them immediately checked the doors and windows. They even took out some equipment to scan the house to see if there were any other listening devices. After checking, they moved over to Wang Tie's side.
"Master/Godfather, what are your instructions?"
Wang Tie paused for a bit before saying, "Based on my many years of experience in the industry and my keen professional sense, I'm guessing that there might be big news about to appear. Right now, I'm hesitating. Should I dig up this news? If I dig it up, it might be dangerous. "
When Fu Rui and Xiao Bo heard this, they moved closer and asked in low voices, "How dangerous?"
"The danger of Fang Zhao coming to our doorstep again," Wang Tie replied.
"Hiss —" Fu Rui took a deep breath. He could still clearly remember the scene of Fang Zhao pointing a gun at Xiao Bo. Discussing business was not the same as digging up news. What if Fang Zhao really opened fire in a fit of rage?
Xiao Bo nodded in agreement. "It is very dangerous." Having a gun pointed at your head was not a good experience.
How rare was it? A dignified Yanzhou reporter... and his elite team were actually worried about a celebrity knocking on their own door?!
"Then... Master, the big news you mentioned, how big is it? What level? "Xiao Bo asked again.
"The level that will shock the entire entertainment circle."
"Hiss —" The two of them gasped.
"Do you guys think we should do this?" Wang Tie asked.
