Hollywood Domination Chapter 21: Jenny’s debut

Although the focus of the entire country is on 9/11, people always need entertainment. CBS, also known as "Old People's TV", has no shortage of viewers, especially CBS's crime dramas, which have always been quality assurance, so they are very popular. is very high. "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation", which was launched in 2000, is a new drama that performed quite well. The first season attracted more than 20 million viewers, and the ratings could reach more than 10 points, firmly occupying the dominant position on Monday. According to Chen Zhen's previous impression, this statistic will not drop due to various reasons until after the tenth season, but even so, the basic level is still there.

The second season, which has just started, is in the most golden period in the history of drama series development. Theoretically, there will be a small increase in the number of viewers compared with the previous season. Regardless of whether it is the loyal audience of the previous season, the new audience who was absorbed because of the promotion and DVD, the ineffective audience who just turned on the TV and chatted with the family, or the CBS executives, at 8 o'clock on Monday night, they all put The channel was tuned to CBS, and I watched the just-returned "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation."

The story begins with a brief synopsis and character introduction, and then switches to a lively singing and dancing scene. This is the famous Caesars Palace Casino in Las Vegas. In order to attract popularity, the casino spends a lot of money , the sky-high price invited the current star Juanita Casson for a one-year residency, and now is the climax of the concert. The audience screamed and applauded. From the distant view, Hua Nita Nita is walking around, constantly interacting with the audience.

With a few quick camera cuts, this information is clearly explained, and a lot of budget is spent on the glamorous special effects-the stage effects and even the audience in the audience are all synthesized through special effects. Many relationships, fine and high-end - it also caught the eyes of many audiences. Although she has not shown her face, Juanita walking on the stage has already attracted the attention of some young female audiences.

"Couldn't it be some famous singer who cameo?"

"It looks like a star, but I haven't heard any TV reports before. I'll check it out on Yahoo."

A search on Yahoo will of course yield no results. As soon as the camera turns, several clothing assistants are talking and rushing to the clothing room with a long skirt. From the conversation, it can be learned that the next dress that Juanita is about to change has accidentally unraveled, and there are still five minutes left time, can be quickly mended.

Compared to the glamorous front desk, the dressing room at the backstage is very messy. After a pause, his eyes slowly moved down—it turned out that the hem of the black evening dress was dragged to the floor, and it was already covered with water at some point.

"What are you doing!" The assistant couldn't help swearing, she picked up the hem of her skirt and tried to squeeze the water out with her hands. However, when she touched the corner of the skirt, her complexion slowly changed. The camera also changed its appearance - it turned out that there was a long bloodstain all the way from the clothing room, and there were also very messy **** footprints.

The camera switches again, and the clothing room has become the detection scene. Behind a screen, several members of the CSI team are quickly taking pictures and marking the scene. The tall and handsome Nick read the life of the deceased, "Judy Watts, 36 years old, divorced, childless, professional dressmaker, has worked for Juanita Casson's team for more than ten years."

This is how the investigation began. Since Juanita Casson was very busy and had sufficient alibi at the time of the crime, she was not included in the inquiry list at the beginning. However, after investigation, CSI found that the last time the victim appeared was in fact the night before. When the clothing assistant went to pick up the clothes that day, she only saw her figure behind the screen and found a hanging hanging of Juanita at the door. Trolley for clothes.

Soon, the forensic doctor found new evidence, pushing the death time of the deceased Judy more than 20 hours forward, and found Juanita's hair on the collar of the deceased, and she immediately became a suspect. one. At this time, she was attending the awards show in Los Angeles, so Nick was ordered to go to Los Angeles to immediately bring her under control.

Leading several Los Angeles police officers, Nick quietly came to the guest seating area of ​​the awards ceremony without alarming anyone, and politely nodded on Juanita's shoulder, "Huanita Casson?"

Juanita turned around at the sound.

She is very beautiful.

This sentence is enough to cover the intention of this scene, but the audience in front of the TV received more comprehensive information. Nita's entire face seemed to be glowing. Blonde hair, blue eyes, and red lips combined to form a classic Hollywood beauty configuration, but the beauty of the facial features is not all.

It is not like the so-called star in the general series, it is often difficult to convince people that "this is really a star", Juanita Casson's temperament is really too star, in front of the camera, she naturally Showing a lazy sense of dominance, and even some traces of the golden age of Hollywood, that kind of leisurely elegance and unpretentious sexiness made her appear instantly, achieving a truly amazing effect.

She seemed not surprised by the arrival of the police, and she did not show the slightest nervousness or panic. Instead, she put on a rather seductive pose and said in a low voice, "Yes?"

Neither Nick nor the police officers spoke - it was obvious that they were completely overwhelmed by Juanita's beauty.

Juanita looked at everyone mockingly, and was particularly interested in Nick. After looking at it for a while, she asked Nick with a targeted smile, "Yes?"

Nick's Adam's apple visibly moved. It can be seen that he is trying to find his own reserve and reason, "You, you are suspected of murdering Judy Watts, Ms. Bell, I'm afraid I have to ask you to go with us It's a trip."

At this time, all the celebrities watching showed concerned expressions, and the cameraman even aimed at the camera. Juanita spread her hands at her boyfriend, and made a troubled gesture beautifully. Standing up quickly, Nick immediately signaled several policemen to follow Juanita in order to control her actions.

The cameraman was already carrying the camera, and kept stepping backwards in front of Juanita to take close-ups. Juanita walked calmly and did not cover her face. Instead, she said to Nick, "Officer, if you don't mind, you can switch to my Right?"

Nick stared at her in bewilderment, and didn't agree right away. Juanita smiled and rolled her eyes, "My face looks better when shot from the left."

Her calm attitude immediately caused bursts of chuckles in front of the screen, and the emotions of many viewers were mobilized: This is a difficult suspect, it seems that this episode has a good show to watch.

At the same time, since the appearance of Juanita, many young audiences, including teenagers and men and women, have been taken aback. Compared with their parents, they are the most sensitive group to popular entertainment. Girls are all masters of entertainment, and they are familiar with celebrities in the film and television song circle. But none of them knew this stunningly beautiful and extremely eye-catching 'Juanita Casson'.

Of course, American teenagers don't know what is called "striking temperament" or "superstar aura". Captured viewers are already rejoicing—fortunately, tonight's episode was taped so that they can re-watch Juanita's flashback later on when it's over. That sense of astonishment that turns heads seldom appears even in big productions. I didn’t expect that this episode of CSI has found such a beautiful guest actor, and the production is so excellent!

"Jon, which star is this?" Many parents were also interested, "She is really beautiful, we can rent some movies she acted in and watch."

"I don't know, mom," the girl was a little frustrated, "I've searched several times, but no one knows who she is, let's watch the end credits later."

Ordinary viewers can only do this. As for managers and film and television companies, their methods are more direct. Now the several phones of the CBS TV staff are very busy, and they are all related people who happened to see the show calling to inquire.' Juanita Casson's.

"This girl has a kind of magical power, as if she can make low-grade and cheap sets sparkle." The comments of senior drama fans and movie fans should be more professional, and posts have appeared on their BBS, "CSI201, Juanita Kasson, who is she?"

On the screen, the episode continues. The CSI team analyzed Judy's death process in the laboratory, thinking that she should have been stabbed to death in a hut by someone she knew, and struggled to fight back before she died. wounded the murderer. And Juanita has a bruise on her shoulder and her hair on the deceased, the suspicion has greatly increased, but there is still a lack of effective evidence and possible motives. The CSI team members took turns interrogating Juanita, repeatedly employing interrogation techniques to no avail. Juanita has a detached attitude and conclusive testimony. It seems that she is very prepared for her arrest. During the interrogation, she often turns against the customer and molested Nick, who is mainly in charge of interrogating her. Her words and deeds seemed to exude a **** breath. Nick was obviously sexually assaulted, but his doubts about him became more and more intense.

"Answer me," Nick lost control of his emotions after another questioning to no avail, he slammed on the table, "Why did your hair appear on the dead body?"

Juanita's lawyer immediately protested, and CSI team leader Grayson entered the room to replace Nick. Nick glanced at Juanita reluctantly, turned and left the interrogation room, and Juanita's eyes followed him all the way out of the door, and looked at Nick who entered the observation room behind the interrogation room as if he could see through a one-way mirror.

She showed a confident smile, as if telling everyone: She did kill someone, but she was confident that she would do it cleanly so that others could not get the evidence.

"It seems that we are in trouble." Behind the mirror, team member Warrick murmured softly, "This is the kind of prisoner I hate the most."

This sentence is the end of the first half of the episode. After a burst of music, the inter-episode advertisement started.

A part of the audience walked away to go to the bathroom, and some audiences were busy with other things, but many audiences also started discussions, and searched for actors of Juanita Casson on the Internet. The call was made to the TV station, but unfortunately, the on-duty phone could not give them an answer. In the discussion boards that fans of several dramas often log in, such as the CSI section of IMDB, the discussion thread about 'Juanita Casson' has been followed by dozens of people. The cast, who is so good looking, is intriguing, and a few extreme fans even thought 'she raised the tone of the episode'.

However, until the second half of the episode, these Xinke fans were somewhat disappointed. Since no conclusive evidence had been obtained, Juanita left the police station after the expiration of the detention period. Nick led several colleagues to search her The home and the lounge of the Caesars Palace at the scene of the crime were all found. The judge refused to sign another investigation order, and Juanita was fine for the time being-which also means that after her brief appearance, her role has been reduced. The next performance time is given to the protagonists.

After rigorous reasoning and investigation of the account of the deceased, the team deduced that the deceased had blackmailed Juanita. The deceased had certain economic contacts. But because she was Juanita's costume designer for many years, the judge did not accept this evidence. Seeing that the case was about to be closed due to insufficient evidence, Nick came to Caesars Palace with his last hope, trying to get clues from Juanita, which was the scene performed by Jenny during her audition.

"May I come in?" Nick knocked on the door.

"Come in." Juanita's lazy voice came out. The viewers in front of the TV are all in high spirits—viewers who are familiar with the rhythm of the TV series can imagine that this should be the last turning point of this episode. Maybe Juanita will show her flaws at this moment, or maybe, she will be It's rare to see a murderer get away with it in CSI.

If this is the case, she will be the second murderer of CSI who is safe and sound and cannot be proven guilty. The previous one was also a woman and appeared in the 21st episode of the first season. None can escape their detection. Such special treatment seems to be very suitable for a "special" murderer like Juanita.

"I'm here to congratulate you." Nick said, leaning against the door with folded arms, "I heard that you are very popular now, and the whole country is talking about that murder case. I think this is a good thing for you."

"Good thing for me?" Juanita repeated slowly, her voice trailing off as her eyes wandered amorously across Nick's face. The audience felt, unanimously, that she was making an unspoken invitation to Nick, "Tell me, how can this be a good thing for me? Because the murder is famous and my PR is crazy? You know PR? Public relations."

Juanita has been mocking Nick with showbiz jargon, but there's always a hint of *in the mockery. And Nick always refused to respond incomprehensibly, and it is the same now. He said seriously, "Stars will never get too much attention. You told me this truth the day you were arrested."

Juanita's expression changed, she gave Nick a blank look, then turned her head and began to touch up her makeup.

Nick took out the evidence bag, which contained the victim's gloves, which were stained with blood. "You know what this is."

Juanita looked at Nick from the mirror, her tone was cold and boring, "This is Judy's glove, what do you want to explain? —— Isn't this what appeared in the photo you showed me?"

"Yes, these are Judy's gloves, she was wearing them when she died, in the dressing room a hundred yards away. But we couldn't find the first scene, the blood in the clothing room was too small, there was no trace of splatter, the murderer dragged her from the first scene to the clothing room, and then washed the blood, it was very clean, We didn't find any evidence." Nick said slowly, his eyes fixed on Juanita, but Juanita was unmoved, her momentum completely overwhelmed Nick.

Nick said again, "We searched your rest room, and there was no blood reaction."

Juanita finally lost her patience, she rolled her eyes at Jiji, "You're wasting my time, officer, I'm going to have a very important interview right now. VOGUE, you know? V-O-G-U-E .”

Nick showed a calm smile, as if everything was under control, he suddenly took the initiative on the field, and began to approach Juanita step by step, "Let me share a theory with you, Ms. Casson, suppose Say, you killed Judy for the reason I said, Judy threatened you with some of your past, hypothetically speaking, you have erased all traces, we all know, as it happens, you The room was scrubbed with bleach by the cleaners after the murder - at your request. The bleach was enough to destroy any remaining blood and prevent us from getting a valid sample. Hypothetically, so far, we haven't Get your presence certificate. At the moment, this hypothetical you with the backing of a strong legal team is enough to escape the law, isn't it? We can't find suitable evidence to prove your motive, and there is not enough The evidence proves that you are at the first scene, and we can't even find the first scene... So, does this mean that this hypothetical you is enough to get rid of the crime?"

This dangerous conversation seemed to make Juanita very interested, she showed a cautious smile, "Hypothetically speaking, it seems so?"

"However, Ms. Juanita," Nick said unhurriedly and confidently, "I'm here today to share with you the good news that Judy's blood wasn't the only one left in the first scene. We've already It was deduced that the crime was committed by an acquaintance, and the incident happened suddenly. After being stabbed, Judy tried her best to fight the murderer, and it is likely that she left some scars on the murderer's body."

Huanita involuntarily looked at a scar on her shoulder with Nick, which was an important reason why Juanita was listed as a suspect before.

Nick was already quite close to Juanita, and he was about to press her against the back of the chair, "And this is a pair of cashmere gloves, and there are tear marks on the back of the hand, which proves that the murderer tore her during the fight with Judy According to our simulated murder process, Judy quickly lost the ability to resist after rapid blood loss. She tried to find some support during the kneeling process, but failed in the end, and was left behind by the rough wall. bruises, so left scars on the palms and fingertips, you see - obviously broken. And this pair of torn wool gloves, in the process, left us with a vital and precious clue - the wool Fiber. At the first scene, she left evidence enough to convict, wool fibers with blood."

Finally, Juanita's face changed slightly. She seemed to have completely lost the initiative. Under Nick's strong confidence, she couldn't help but glance at a rough decorative wall.

Nick's eyes lit up, he strode to the wall, turned on the flashlight and carefully inspected the wall—

However, he found nothing, the wall was clean without any traces.

When he raised his head in frustration, Juanita had already begun to touch up his makeup again. Their eyes met in the mirror, and Juanita smiled at him gracefully. The smile was full of complacency and cunning, poisonous but charming . She got up, approached Nick slowly, reached out to the evidence bag, and Nick hid the evidence bag behind him. Juanita continued to raise her hand, stroking Nick's cheek, and took another step closer, almost placing a kiss on his lips, but when she was about to touch Nick's lips, she smiled again and walked away calmly.

There was a loud sigh in front of the TV, and many girls had hearts in their eyes, appreciating Juanita's style, but the male audience couldn't help but put themselves into the role of Nick, as if influenced by Huanita. It is they who are tempted by the tower.

"Her Qi (Chi) is too strong." Jon couldn't help but admire. "Mom, have you really never seen her in TV dramas? Could it be that you have seen her but you don't remember."

Her viewing volume is not as large as that of her mother who is a housewife, but Jon's mother asked, "Why do you always think I have a bad memory? Are you sure you really didn't find her on the Internet?"

This kind of question was repeated in many viewers, and on the TV, Nick followed her forward, as if he wanted to keep her kiss, but soon forced himself to give up, his eyes showed that he was taken Repressed passion, but Juanita restrained her interest in Nick, and said politely, "I said, I have a very important interview. You have my search warrant, officer, please go ahead. "

Among Nick's unwilling expression, Juanita showed a mysterious smile, turned around and left the dressing room, and when she passed the cleaning car parked at the door, she looked at the big cleaning bucket on the car, and couldn't help it. Consciously touched the scar on her shoulder - her wound coincided with the logo on the clean handlebar.

Several scenes cut quickly, and after the murder, Juanita went to the door and dragged into the cleaning truck, her feet went limp, and she hit the handlebar. Regardless of her painful arm, she stuffed the body into a large bucket and poured ice into it. Then put on the uniform of the cleaner, put on the hat, hummed a song and pushed the car to the clothing room. It was not long after the concert ended, and the backstage was in chaos, and no one would give the cleaner a second look.

After coming to the clothing room, Juanita arranged the scene, took out the clothing and arranged them in order. Finally, she pushed the cleaning cart back to the rest room, locked herself in the rest room, and carefully cleaned the clothes with bleach. After wiping the first scene, he sharply pulled out the fibers left by the gloves. Then he changed into the fine clothes as if nothing had happened, stepped out of the lounge, drove to the pier, boarded the yacht, and socialized with the dignitaries.

When she was leaning on the railing alone, Juanita calmly reached into the dinner bag, pulled out the weapon, and threw it into the sea... Then, she smiled calmly, turned around and returned to the reception, took the waiter A glass of wine from Ying Sheng.

As if seeing the camera, she raised her head halfway, smiled triumphantly and cheerfully at the camera, and raised the wine glass in her hand.

The off-screen voice sounded, and it was exactly what Juanita said before: Anyone can become a star, as long as you have enough courage and enough practice, the most important thing is that you must be careful enough, Everything in this world can be done perfectly if you are careful enough.

The episode ended here, the screen suddenly went dark, and the ending music sounded. This episode left viewers with a lot of doubts: What was Juanita blackmailed for? Why is there no guilt about killing people? Will Nick give up the pursuit? Is this the first time Juanita has killed someone? Why is she so familiar? Is it really the same as what she said, she has practiced many times before this?

Of course, and most importantly, who is this beautiful big star? What movies have you been in again? She didn't look like a newcomer in the entertainment industry, but she hadn't seen her face anywhere else.

Usually it is the end credits of garbage time, and now it has attracted the attention of many people. Many people are afraid of missing the fast switch, so they stare at the screen intently until 'Juanita Casson: Jennifer When the word ".Jefferson" appeared, he breathed a sigh of relief and went to check immediately.

In Beverly Hills, Lilian happily raised her hands and cheered, "I'm so proud of you! My dear, you did a great job!"

Jim was also applauding vigorously: Lilian just happened to be on vacation today, so she invited Jim over for dinner and watched Jenny's screen debut with them.

"It's really great." Jim also didn't hesitate to praise himself, "I'm so discerning, my dear, the whole world will hate me now! Believe me, the whole Hollywood will want you, but They can only lament that they are one step too late, because Jim DeVoe has already signed you away! Haha, baby, they will hate me so much!"

Jenny didn't bother to correct Jim's wrong statement: the agent she signed was Cesare. She stared at the TV, confused and annoyed, "Wait - they typed my name wrong! It's Jenny, not Jennifer."

"Oh." Jim calmed down from his excitement, and he glanced at Jenny, "It's not a mistake...it was Cesare's explanation. From now on, your official name is no longer Jenny, Jenny, It should be Jennifer."

"Why?" Lilian asked confused, "Of course, the two names are just spelled differently, but—"

She suddenly frowned, "Is it related to Bell?"

——Jennifer Bell, a young lady who is currently enjoying first-line treatment, is also a former client who just "broke up" with Cesare.

Note: 1 It is a famous tradition for casinos to invite singers to sing in Las Vegas. Both Celine Dion and Britney Spears have sung in Las Vegas, and Britney is now in the ongoing tense~

2 The content of this episode is fabricated by me. You may think that the plot is not very exciting, but this is normal. This is the normal level of public TV crime dramas...it cannot be as ups and downs as movies. In particular, CSI wins with technical details, and will not be very good in terms of plot.
