American Gossip King

Chapter 84 The Hottest News

The Palos Bank flying car interview case became the biggest news Ian Carl had accomplished since his time travel, surpassing all previous news in terms of sensationalism.

Even across the ocean, the issue is being reported, with Southern Media Group even initiating another wave of reflection:

What makes the media professionals there so dedicated?

"To be willing to risk one's life for the dream in one's heart—that's what makes a true uncrowned king!"

"Great professions carry great dreams and satisfy the spiritual needs of humanity..."

Of course, there are also those who are clear-headed.

"Are we really going to emulate such a mad reporter?"

"To interview someone burning in flames? To even tell him to calm down?"

"A guy who went on a rampage, whipping a robber's corpse? That young man was practically beaten to a pulp!"

"They had already caught up with the robbers' car, but they were only focused on the interview and didn't try to stop it? Did they just sit and watch the robbers escape?"

"Is this truly a reflection of the superiority of Western civilization?"

"Why can journalists like that go unpunished? Here, even a neighborhood committee auntie would rush to arrest a thug if she saw one."

Which is more important, professional ethics or public morality?

Such discussions arose one after another.

For Ian, things were much simpler.

This major news brings nothing but a frenzy of money-making and an improvement in visual appeal.

The impact of this news is enormous; just this one piece of information has caused my right eye experience to skyrocket.

It's 5500/8000 now.

This one piece of information has caused the price to rise by nearly half. Sure enough, the more sensational the information, the better the effect. And this is not the limit. The follow-up is still developing.

The rapid improvement in the right eye did not bring more benefits to X-ray vision, but the strength of the threads was greatly increased. It was no longer limited to 50 grams, but reached 105 grams per thread.

It's not very meaningful; it's just a matter of sending out more cameras.

But in terms of money, Ian has made a fortune.

As a result, WND's value skyrocketed, and Ian himself became a national celebrity, receiving invitations to do interviews everywhere.

CBS collaborated most with Ian, because CBS offered the highest price due to the fact that Ian had a run for his.

So Ian earned several million dollars more from all the interviews he did.

Ian poured all that money into the expansion of the Los Angeles Herald, continuing to erode the American newspaper market and expand its distribution channels.

Within two weeks of the highway chase, the Los Angeles Herald's sales surged to an average of 500,000 copies per day, peaking at 700,000 copies.

This is only because this news is not suitable for the newspaper industry.

But everyone has realized that Ian may not be far from winning the bet.

………………

Today is a day off.

Ian and Lena strolled along the upscale shopping street in Beverly Hills.

This place brings together the world's top fashion brands. Each store is glittering and magnificent, with exquisitely carved marble and brass doors. The arched fountains make this street even more impressive.

Ian and Lena casually walked into a store with the prominent Hermès logo, where the staff greeted them warmly: "Hello, Mrs. Bent."

Lena nodded and said, "Pick out a few outfits for this gentleman."

"Yes, madam, please follow me." The shop assistants warmly invited Ian.

Ian clearly lacks experience when it comes to spending money.

Whether in his past life or this one, he rarely paid attention to life. His predecessor was someone with good taste in spending money, but old Karl couldn't support him, and memories that weren't noticed would fade away, so Ian gradually lost some of his playboy instincts.

Even now, those lost memories have been revived, but they still seem inferior in the face of Lena, so they simply let Lena and the shop assistants do as they please.

Wearing luxurious clothes, the already handsome young man became even more radiant, a sight to behold.

Having seen Ian without clothes so often, seeing him dressed up now feels really cool!

Lena sat there, watching Ian change his clothes, her eyes shining brightly. She waved her hand from time to time: "Change him to that outfit, and put that blue striped tie on him... and that gold tie clip, no, no, the light gold one, its trim has a very high-class feel."

"No, this is too casual. Ian, you're still young. You need to cultivate a more mature and sophisticated style. Change into the black one with light stripes."

"Don't cinch the waist here, your figure is already great. Lower the lining to show off your muscles, you have a fantastic body!"

"No, you can't wear those shoes. They're too shiny and will make you look like a nouveau riche. These are nicer."

Lena was like a conductor, her slender fingers holding a cigarette serving as her baton. Under her direction, a high-quality man was born.

Standing in front of the vanity mirror, Ian looked at himself.

The black striped suit made her figure appear even taller and slimmer.

Because it's casual wear, there's no collar clip, and the neckline of the inner lining is quite low, revealing some skin and adding a touch of sexiness.

Lena stood beside him, watching, and nodded in satisfaction: "You need to redo your hair; it's a bit messy. You don't take care of yourself at all. Oh, and you'll need a watch too."

Ian said in a low voice, "I'd rather use the money for investments now."

The latest novel is first published here!

Lena said softly, "I'll pay for it, as for the watch..."

Lena took out a dazzling Patek Philippe: "Gasker has a few; he doesn't need this many."

She then put the card on him herself and handed it to the shop assistant.

The shop assistants looked at Ian with envy, and for a moment they thought he was probably Lena's kept man.

Ian chuckled, "That's not appropriate, Lena."

It wasn't that they were afraid Gaskell would find out, but ultimately, it wasn't good for outsiders to know about this relationship.

"It's nothing, they're very tight-lipped," Lena said, giving Ian a light kiss.

They completely disregard the opinions of those around them.

My adorable little puppy, little wolf, you are absolutely amazing!

Lena's eyes were filled with infatuation for Ian.

Wearing their newly bought clothes and two more formal outfits, they walked out of the store. Lena pointed to a shop diagonally across the street and said, "Blanchard is the best stylist on this street. He's styled the former president before."

So an hour later, when Ian walked out of the store, his hairstyle had changed. The sophisticated American-style middle part made Ian stand out even more.

Ian was originally considered a 7 or 8 out of 10 handsome, but with this new look, he's definitely a 9 or higher.

It's no exaggeration to say that clothes make the man.

Looking at the time, it was already noon. Ian said, "Let's find a place to eat."

Lena stared at the handsome man in front of her, mesmerized: "I'd rather eat you."

Ian chuckled and said, "I have the whole afternoon to spend with you."

Lena then took Ian's arm: "I know a French restaurant. I like the ambiance and the cod there."

The two were walking forward when suddenly Ian stopped.

On the street not far away, a bald black man stood there with a cane.

Kreps.

Noticing Ian's gaze, Lena asked, "What's wrong?"

Ian said in a low voice, "You go to the restaurant first, I'll come over in a bit."

Lena glanced at Kripps and said softly, "Okay, be mindful of your surroundings, call the police if anything happens."

Although Kreps was dressed in designer brands and looked like a gentleman, his fierce temperament could not be suppressed even by the most elegant clothes.
