Chapter three hundred and twentieth sudden fame
Since newspaper king Rupert Murdoch acquired "The Sun", the news industry tycoon has used his financial resources to rapidly expand the newspaper's news sources and attract a large number of readers; on the other hand, he has actively engaged with political circles.
He has close relationships and uses his connections and influence to contribute to his news empire.
Therefore, the richness of the news published in "The Sun" ranges from domestic politics and international news to social topics and celebrity gossip.
Perhaps it is precisely because of its rich content and sensational article style that the Sun has become a must-have for the middle and lower classes of society, and has successfully become the highest-selling newspaper in the UK!
The daily sales of "The Sun" are as high as three million. In other words, among the approximately 60 million people in the entire British Peninsula, one in every twenty people has read the Sun and learned about the relationship between Endurance and Labor.
La's story.
"The Sun" made a very successful move by focusing the news on Laura.
Human beings always have an inexplicable urge to get close to beautiful things. Especially those women who are both mysterious and beautiful, which makes people want to know more about them...
It is precisely because of this that the Sun, which had tasted the sweetness, immediately struck while the iron was hot three days later and published a front-page article introducing Lara Croft alone.
In front of the powerful paparazzi, Laura's life background and even her growth experience were quickly discovered:
With such dazzling names as the 11th Countess of the Crawford family, a rising star in the archaeological world, and the sole heir of the Crawford Group, she lost her parents at a young age, grew up alone, and successfully passed the exam through her own efforts.
Strong girls from higher education...
After graduating from college, I embarked on an archaeological expedition with my friends, bravely braved the Devil's Sea, and explored unknown ancient ruins...
Once the entire sensational article was published, the beautiful, brave and charismatic Laura quickly became a new generation of archaeological goddess sought after throughout the UK.
The sales of "The Sun" have continued to rise for several days in a row, almost touching the edge of the highest sales volume in history.
Many readers have called or sent letters to the headquarters of The Sun, wanting to know more about Laura and the story of the Endurance.
These concerns even alarmed Murdoch himself.
Because they are both owned by Murdoch News Group, and the nature of the news, it is a social topic that is more likely to attract widespread attention. Another famous British daily, "The Times", also expressed concern about the news of "Endurance's lucky survival from the Dragon Triangle"
, carried out relevant reports.
However, it did not focus on Laura alone like "The Sun" did, but also faithfully reported on other survivors.
The British media also noticed the social news caused by this and cast curious glances.
In just one week, Reuters, BBC, AFX, ITV and other media have successively reported on the Endurance incident.
Even the archaeological community, which was a bit slow to respond, has joined the bandwagon.
"Archaeology World" and "Archaeology Weekly", two of the most famous magazines in the archeology world, reported this incident on their front pages and called it "a miraculous adventure."
As for the report and cover image, everyone chose Laura’s beautiful photos in perfect agreement...
As time goes by, the news continues to ferment, and its influence becomes greater and greater, attracting widespread attention around the world.
And all this, the people on the Endurance, who were enjoying the last moment of tranquility before the storm on the ship, had no idea.
It wasn't until Samantha borrowed the crew's cell phone and planned to call her parents, but saw photos of Laura everywhere on the Internet, that everyone learned that something like this had happened without them knowing.
One thing.
The sudden fame and widespread attention caught Laura, who was immersed in Yamatai literature, a little unprepared.
However, before Laura could figure out how to deal with these media, the freighter that had been sailing at sea for two weeks finally arrived successfully offshore London...
...
On July 12, 2013, after nearly a month, I finally saw the city outline of London again.
However, at the time of departure, the total crew of the Endurance totaled 25 people. However, only eight people were left when they returned, and the survival rate was only 30%.
Moreover, even the Endurance, an exploration ship that rides the wind and waves, stayed at Yamatai forever, which made everyone on the Endurance sigh with emotion.
Standing on the bow of the freighter, facing the sea breeze, looking at the bustling London Port and the densely populated London city, Laura could not help but feel a sense of being in another world.
Although she only stayed in Yamatai for three days, she felt that everything she experienced in those three days was something she would never forget in her life.
On that island, she grew up a lot, saw the mysterious story that her father had been pursuing, and understood the path she wanted to take next...
Looking at London getting closer and closer, she suddenly remembered everything that had happened in the past period of time.
The brown hair on her forehead was gently blown by the breeze, and Laura's brows couldn't help but frown slightly.
It's just that those media are really annoying. Who gave them the power to publish all my information!
You actually use my photos everywhere...
Just when Laura was secretly angry, a ridiculing voice suddenly came from behind:
"Hey, big star, what are you thinking about?"
Laura, whose thoughts were interrupted, immediately turned around and said to the visitor seriously:
"Lu Qi, I don't like this title. I don't want you to call me that."
"Laura, this is just a joke..."
Facing the suddenly serious Laura, Lu Qi shrugged, then came to Laura's side, put his hand on the guardrail, and said meaningfully:
"Just like what the media reports, you don't have to care so much..."
Lu Qi naturally noticed Laura's troubled appearance these days.
Of course he knows that Laura doesn't like the media to report her affairs, doesn't like to be a celebrity, and is sought after by the public, and she doesn't like the feeling of exposing her skin and having everything about herself known to others.
Lu Qiming knew this and deliberately hit the muzzle, all to better comfort Laura and let her get through this short period of discomfort.
Before Laura could react from his words, Lu Qi looked at the seagulls flying on the sea and said to himself:
"They don't know the real you, they're just chasing a fantasy."
