Be a goddess from Tokyo
Chapter 244
Chapter 244 Family and Friends ([-])
Luo Quan took a rough look at the contract and found that there was no major problem.
The salary is a little less, but actresses all over the world are basically treated like this.
Besides, she is famous now, but her fame and appeal on the big screen are basically zero. The after-tax salary of 150 million US dollars is high enough, after all, she didn't have many scenes in the first film.
It is worth mentioning that, after discussions with the directors, screenwriters and producers of "The Lord of the Rings", Luo Quan played the role of the Elf Queen in addition to the Elf Princess.
There is no other reason, but Luo Quan is too suitable for playing this type of role. With her jewels in front, it would seem very inconsistent to let other people play the same role as she set.
In terms of appearance, Luo Quan can be said to be terrific.
As for the fact that one person plays two roles, there is no big problem. One character has no makeup, and the other only needs cool makeup. Luo Quanhua and no makeup are completely two people.
Besides, the elf queen was originally the grandmother of the elf princess, so she looks a little more in line with the setting.
There are slightly more roles, but the pay has not changed.
At least that's all there is in Luoquan in the first play, but it can't be ruled out that there will be an increase in the second and third plays.
In short, if "Lord of the Rings" is a hit at the box office, it is very normal for the creator's value to skyrocket, and her salary may have to increase by then.
This is an excellent springboard for her, even if it is zero pay, she will join without hesitation.
Of course, even though the crew was unlikely to cheat her, Luo Quan did not reply in a hurry after reading the first version of the contract.
After experiencing Jiang Yuner's incident, she had to pay more attention to signing the contract, so she decided to consult a professional before making a decision.
He was unfamiliar with the place of life, and Luo Quan didn't know where to find a lawyer, so Luo Quan had no choice but to trouble Seifert, and sent a message asking him to help.
The tool man Seifert was very forthright and agreed.
The casting of "Lord of the Rings" has come to an end, and there are basically no major problems with the supporting roles of "Titanic", so Director Carnathan has to issue a contract to himself.
After these two matters were resolved, Luo Quan was in a good mood.
Humming a little tune from my hometown, I went downstairs, and the hall was already full of guests and friends.
At 10:30 in the morning, Charles Albert's birthday party officially started.
Before this, the old man seldom held such banquets. He usually invited a few of his best buddies to hold private parties, with at most six or seven people.
This time he invited a wide range of guests, from relatives and friends to business partners; social celebrities to government officials, they were all invited.
Some of these people came with their family members, and there were two to three hundred people, all of whom were well-dressed and adorned with jewels.
Luo Quan just walked down in casual clothes, and only then remembered that he should be wearing formal clothes at this time.
But this time she came to London, she didn't bring any evening dress, and she didn't know if there were many at her mother's place.
At this moment, Butler Barry walked past her, and Luo Quan quickly stopped him:
"Butler Barry!"
"What's the matter, Miss Luo Quan?"
"Do you have any formal clothes at home? I forgot to bring them this time."
"Yes." Butler Barry nodded with a smile and said, "Please follow me."
The two turned around and went up to the fourth floor. This is the floor closest to the top of the castle. It is used as a storage room. Of course, it is not used to store sundries or food, but to store some collections of overall value.
As a veteran aristocrat, the old man, like most people, likes to collect famous paintings, sculptures and various rare objects.
Of course, he is not an enthusiast in this area, and only collects when he sees what he likes.
As for the room of women's clothing in front of Luo Quan, it is not the old man's collection, it was prepared by Butler Barry.
The female family members of a large family often have to attend many formal occasions, and these clothes are needed at this time. Butler Barry also asked someone to prepare women's clothing in sizes ranging from 1.6 meters 1.7 to [-] meters [-].
Of course, men's clothing is also available.
It's a pity that the clothes are ready, and these children of the old man can't come back once a year, so these clothes have become decorations.
However, Butler Barry didn't just let them sit idle. After a while, he would invite professionals to maintain the clothes for emergencies.
"The style of clothes is not the latest. If Miss Luo Quan is not satisfied, I can call someone to bring it to you from outside."
"Haha, don't bother." Luo Quan walked in with a smile, while Butler Barry closed the door gently.
Luo Quan didn't have difficulty in choosing, and quickly picked out a pure white lace evening dress among the clothes exuding an unknown floral fragrance, and walked into the fitting room with it.
After changing it, she looked in front of the mirror. It was not loose but fit well, and it was not particularly revealing.
Then, in the glass shoe cabinet next to the hanger, he flipped through a pair of white crystal high-heeled shoes according to the size of his feet.
At first glance, Luo Quan felt that his attire was just like a princess in a fairy tale.
It's quite strange to be like this usually, but fortunately, like the female guests in the hall she saw just now, they were basically in evening dresses and high heels.
Everyone is the same, so there is no shame in being hungry.
However, she was wearing too few high heels, and when she walked towards the door, she faltered every step, worrying in her heart whether she would sprain her feet later.
Grabbing the doorknob, Luo Quan felt relieved and opened the door.
Butler Barry, who had his back to the door, turned around. The mature and prudent man couldn't help showing a surprised expression at this time: "Your beauty is even more amazing than all the princesses and ladies I have ever seen!"
Luo Quan smiled and said: "Haha, is there any? My friends say that they are usually very rustic, like a village girl."
It’s okay if you don’t open your mouth, but when you open your mouth, you really look like a village girl...
Butler Barry was stunned, and said regretfully: "If you have lived in the Albert family since you were a child, as a butler, I will definitely make you more aristocratic than any lady in any family!"
"It's really too late to learn now, but as long as you can talk less, it shouldn't be a big problem." Luo Quan also knows her own problem, anyway, as long as she doesn't talk, she is a goddess.
"That's not the case." Butler Barry smiled and shook his head.
The two went downstairs. At this time, the whole family had changed their clothes and put on makeup, and went to the courtyard.
The noon banquet was held in the courtyard, and the castle hall had to be arranged for the dinner, so the guests were invited outside after staying in the hall for a while.
Luo Quan came to the rather lively courtyard alone.
The banquet has already begun, and all kinds of appetizers and desserts are placed on long tables covered with clean white tablecloths.
Just like the scenes in Luo Quan's impression, all kinds of champagne and red wine are arranged in the shape of a mountain, but the exhaustion is not particularly high, only three floors.
After being drunk last night, Luo Quan doesn't even want to look at any wine now.
Skipping the table full of wine, Luo Quan went straight to the "children's area" next to the juice.
"Fred, look there!" At the banquet, a blond man poked his friend with his elbow.
"What are you looking at?" The young man named Fred said with a somewhat dispirited voice, only focusing on the food in front of him.
Both of them are blond and white. Fred's suit is obviously a bit too big. The trousers cover half of the back of the leather shoes, and the sleeves are rolled up. Those who don't know may think that his father's suit is secretly Wear it out.
Darian said excitedly: "I swear, that is definitely the most beautiful girl I have ever seen!"
Fred was helpless: "How many times have you said this sentence in England?"
"Don't worry about eating your little food, just look at it and you'll know!"
Fred had no choice but to take a bite of the steak in his hand and follow his friend's gaze.
In an instant, Fred seemed to be struck by lightning, and his whole body froze in place. The steak in his hand slipped quietly, and his mouth that was chewing lost all energy.
Even though there were so many women in his sight, he saw the girl who was enough to make everything eclipse at a glance.
At this moment, his mind went back and forth a thousand times, and all the adjectives about beauty that he found in all the knowledge he had learned were so pale and powerless to describe this girl.
What made his face pale was that the girl turned her head and looked at him.
Now he has half a piece of steak stuffed in his mouth, the corners of his mouth are still covered with shiny fat, and his hands are also wet.
The meat steak, which was so delicious just now, is completely tasteless now.
This should be the most embarrassing moment in his life. In the past, he didn't particularly care about his image and was slovenly.
But now, how much he wishes his image could be as clean as his friend's.
"Fred, that girl is here, I think he must be attracted to me!" Darian became more excited, straightened his collar and tie, and walked forward.
On the way, I also took two glasses of red wine from the passing waiter.
Although he was preempted by his friends, Fred still followed.
In the past, he didn't care much about his friend's behavior of approaching girls, but this time, he secretly hoped that his friend would fail!
"Beautiful girl, I don't know why I always feel like I've seen you somewhere before." Darian smiled all over his face, using this old-fashioned conversation starter.
"Have you heard my song too?" Luo Quan knew it was coming when he met the eyes of the two boys.
"Are you... a singer?" Darien was taken aback for a moment, obviously not expecting this.
After a pause, he suddenly said: "I seem to have seen you before? It was also in Time Magazine before, called... Luo Dog?!"
When foreigners speak Chinese, they always like to use the third tone for their pronunciation.
Luo Quan's face darkened, and he said, "That word reads quán."
"Oh...sorry, my Chinese is not very good." Darian used a smile to cover up his embarrassment, was silent for a while, and then quickly handed over the red wine in his hand: "Mind if I buy you a glass of wine? Banquet The dinner is about to start, so let's treat it as an appetizer."
Luo Quan seemed familiar with these words. Last night, my father also said to have a drink as an appetizer.
Then she did it, and she knew everything after that.
"Sorry, I can't drink wine, I can only have juice." Luo Quan declined while holding up the orange juice in his hand.
"Ah... this." Darian didn't know what went wrong, and felt that after a few words, the girl's first impression of him plummeted.
"I remembered!" Fred behind Darian suddenly called out, startling the two people beside him.
"You are that Luo Quan from Huaxia, you released an album before - "Love", right?!"
"Yes." Luo Quan nodded, "So have you heard of it?"
"Um...Of course I heard it!" Darian quickly replied.
"Don't you like listening to rap the most? Big gold chains, fragrant cars and beautiful women?" Fred broke the stage mercilessly.
Darian looked at his friend and instantly understood what he wanted to do.
"Haha, let me introduce you. This is my best friend Fred Ibigail. Let's shake hands and get to know each other."
"Hello." Luo Quan was very polite and held out his hand.
Fred also wanted to reach out, but only after he raised it did he remember that he had grabbed the steak with his hand just now, and it was full of meat residue and oil.
Luo Quan was about to hold it, but when he saw the unknown liquid on Fred's hand, his expression froze.
Both fell into embarrassment.
Fortunately, Fred reacted quickly and raised his other clean hand.
After shaking hands with difficulty, Luo Quan turned around and pulled out a few pieces of paper.
After thinking about it, she drew a few more.
"Thank you!" Fred grabbed the tissue and quickly wiped it on his hands.
"And your mouth," Darien said softly.
What a shame!Fred showed his ugly side in front of Luo Quan.
It doesn't get any more embarrassing than that.
At this moment, Seifert and Leon came over: "Wow, you changed your clothes, it's like a different person!"
When the five met, Darian saw Seifert surprised and said, "It's you! Why are you here!"
Seifert chuckled: "What do you mean, can you come and I can't come?"
As a human being, he had seen the three people here before coming here just now, and guessed what they were talking about through their expressions.
"Sister, Dad was looking for you just now." Leon said.
"Let me introduce, this is the grandson of Mr. Charles, the host of the banquet, and Luo Quan is his sister." Seifert's expression was natural, as if he was also the host.
"Hello." Leon shook hands with Fred and Darian.
After shaking hands, Leon felt a little slippery, does this person still use hand cream?I'm afraid I'm not a Gay!
Darian asked: "So you are the granddaughter of Mr. Charles, so who is your father?"
"Eric Albert." Leon said helpfully.
"Ah, my father met Mr. Eric a few times in the United States before, so our two families are quite close."
This is the beginning of a relationship.
Seifert said with a smile: "I've met you a few times, and you have a good relationship. You are quite good at building relationships."
Darian's expression remained unchanged, and he said, "I'm not making up this, it's the truth."
The two looked at each other with sparks in their eyes, probably because they had some unpleasant experiences before.
