Traveling Through the Tokyo Bubble Era

Chapter 402: Picking up a conversation in the restaurant
Dad's diary.

On June 24, we arrived in America to see the baby.

On June 25th, I will celebrate the full moon of my baby daughter and take care of the baby.

June 26th, see the baby.

June 27th, see the baby.

June 28th, Hideki Hanyu, Hideki Hanyu, how can you be so immersed in the joy of raising a daughter? Marvel is still waiting for you to acquire, and Starbucks is still waiting for you to invest. Have you forgotten these things?This can't go on like this!

June 29th, see the baby.

……

June NO.30, morning.

When Liu Xiaoli got up from the bed and saw her man holding her daughter's delicate little feet and kissing them non-stop, she couldn't bear it anymore and she exploded.

"A grown man should aim everywhere, work hard for his ideals, and work hard for his career. How can he not think about making progress all day long? Although I like you to accompany us mother and daughter, I like the original you more!"

Of course Liu Xiaoli is happy that Hideki Hanyu likes their mother and daughter so much.

But in her heart, Hanyu Hideki shouldn't be like this.

It should be the man who has a gentle temperament, is decisive in doing things, and is full of masculine charm, making her fall in love with him so much that she can't help but fall in love with him.

Not the one in front of me, the daughter slave who hangs around her daughter all day long, unshaven, unkempt, slovenly, and "stupid".

Therefore, Liu Xiaoli decisively drove the man out of Hibiscus Garden.

Even if you go out to find other women, she will appreciate you.

It's better than staying at home all the time, being a "good-for-nothing" "wasted house dad" who doesn't want to make progress.

Hey……

At the entrance of Hibiscus Garden, Hideki Hanyu touched his neatly styled hairstyle with the help of Liu Xiaoli and sighed helplessly.

He has not enjoyed the family happiness of father and daughter for a few days.

Today at noon and evening, the kissing of my precious daughter has not been completed yet.

Just kicked out?

Of course, it was definitely a joke to say they were kicked out.

Before going out, Liu Xiaoli, like a virtuous little daughter-in-law, helped Hanyu Hideki tidy up his appearance and appearance, and gave him gentle instructions before letting him leave.

Although it was a gentle warning, the meaning behind the words was, I can take care of my daughter, and you, a grown man, should be busy with grown-up things, instead of sitting at home with nothing to do.

"Boss, where should we go next?" Marco asked beside him.

Marco expressed his spiritual sympathy for his boss's experience of being "kicked out of the house".

As for action...

It can only be said that the cold-looking bodyguard does not have a high status in his family.

There is really no experience to pass on to the boss.

It can't be said that the character of the bodyguard who is decisive and decisive will collapse.

Facing Marco's question, Hideki Hanyu thought for a while before answering.

"Let's go to Century City and see how busy Fred Weber is lately?"

"Okay, boss,"

Marco responded and went to prepare the car.

It was still the Rolls-Royce "Silver Dawn" from before. After Hanyu Hideki got in the car, he immediately felt empty inside.

Hmm... Such a big car should have an eye-catching female secretary.

Unfortunately, "Ball Flower" helped prepare the secretary's office and recently went to New York to contact Marvel Comics with people from Elf Entertainment.

As for the secretary's office that the other party established for him.

Although most of them are still women, perhaps they don’t want a second version of themselves to appear and steal the “importance” in Hanyu Hideki’s heart.

Therefore, all the women in the secretary's office are the kind of people who have strength but no looks, and are completely inconsistent with Hanyu Hideki's aesthetics.

When Hanyu Hideki came to America this time, the secretary's office arranged for two personal assistants, one male and one female.

The male Hideki Hanyu is not interested.

As for the woman, because she was "unsightly", Hanyu Hideki sent her to the Audi car at the back and sat with the bodyguards.

"Should I ask someone to come over temporarily to accompany me?" Hanyu Hideki touched his chin and considered.

Although I am very happy to be a baby daddy these days, the mother can only look at the baby but not eat it, so she is still holding back a lot of anger.

But think about it, it looks like several women in Neon are busy.

While he was thinking about it, Hanyu Hideki's car had already arrived at Century City and entered the underground parking lot of Yunshang Film Building.

As soon as he got out of the car, he saw an acquaintance in the parking space next door.

Bill Hart.

The owner of New Era Brokerage Company.

The other party was closing the door of a black third-generation Honda Accord and seemed to have just returned from work.

As soon as Hideki Hanyu's magnificent Rolls-Royce appeared, Bill Hart knew who was coming.

He immediately came forward with a flattering smile.

After Hideki Hanyu got off the bus, he immediately said hello, "Mr. Hanyu, I haven't seen you for so long. I really miss you so much."

"Long time?"

Hanyu Hideki calculated the time and found that he had only been back to Neon for less than a month.

"For such an important person as Mr. Hanyu, even if we are separated for just one day, it would be my loss if I could not learn and grow with you."

Bill Hart's flattery almost made Hideki Hanyu feel physically uncomfortable.

Hideki Hanyu really wanted to ask, don’t you also read the salary slips and arrange a workstation next to my office?
But well.

He stretched out his hand so as not to hit the smiling person. The other person's flattery sounded a bit off-putting, but after all, it was a sign of goodwill towards him.

But even so, he couldn't let the other party continue talking. Looking at the black Accord next to him, Hanyu Hideki asked.

"Is Mr. Bill going to work so early?"

"Yeah, there was a little problem with a crew over in North Hollywood, so I went to take care of it."

Bill Hart seemed to have thought of something and emphasized it.

"The show is produced by Martin Schaeffer, whose previous project 'Mother Lode' did well, and this new film is an independent project in partnership with Nielsen Entertainment.

Your Yunshang Pictures also invested, and manager Fred helped my client introduce several roles, so I still want to thank Mr. Hanyu for his help. "

"Since it was Fred who introduced me, I'd better go thank Fred."

Hanyu Hideki said indifferently.

While they were talking, they walked to the elevator unknowingly, and Bill Hart took the initiative to press the elevator button.

After the group entered the elevator, Bill Hart said goodbye to Hideki Hanyu on the first floor and went to work at the New Era Agency.

Hideki Hanyu continued to take the elevator and went to Yunshang Pictures to meet Fred Weber.

But what Hideki Hanyu didn’t know was.

After Bill Hart said goodbye to him, he immediately quickened his pace, returned to the office of the brokerage company, and called his assistant for questioning.

"Where is Jenny Wright now?"

"Just joined Sand Boy's crew."

"Where's Kristen Rose?"

"I was the second female lead in an independent film at Yunshang Pictures. I should be in Pasadena now."

"and also……"

"No more Los Angeles."

……

Bill Hart asked the names of several female clients in succession. They were either working or working, and no one was idle.

He immediately said in annoyance, "Damn it, no one was there when we needed them."

"Mr. Hart, is it urgent to find them? Is there any production crew that is selecting the female lead?"

"More important than the leading female role! It's none of your business, just go and do your business."

Bill Hart said angrily and waved his hand to signal his subordinates to leave.

Being the female lead in a movie is not as important as building a good relationship with a big shot like Hideki Hanyu.

Now that you know what Hanyu Hideki's tricks are, of course you have to do what he likes.

Who would have thought that none of the female clients Hanyu Hideki could be interested in before would be useless at this time.

But finally, Hideki Hanyu arrived.

The result is that you have to watch the opportunity slip away without being able to seize it.

Bill Hart scratched his head and scratched his head anxiously, wishing that he was a beautiful woman and could personally unbuckle Hanyu Hideki's belt.

And just when Bill Hart was thinking hard about how to get closer to Hideki Hanyu.

In the office of Fred Weber, CEO of Cloud Pictures.

Hideki Hanyu is listening to Fred Weber's report on the recent work progress of Yunshang Pictures.

The first confirmed project, "Working Girl," has completed the revision of the fourth version of the script.

Director Mike Nichols led his production team to New York for the first real-life inspection.

The crew's preparations are almost complete, and there is absolutely no problem in starting filming in September.

The distribution negotiations between this film and [-]th Century Fox are also progressing very smoothly. It is basically confirmed that the local distribution work in America will be handed over to [-]th Century Fox.

As for the overseas distribution part, it depends on the channel construction speed of Yunshang Entertainment.

Before the movie is released next year, if the acquisition and expansion of Crescent Cinema goes smoothly, the parent company Yunshang Entertainment will be responsible for distribution.

If the expansion is not ideal, it will have to be handed over to [-]th Century Fox.

Of course, neon and the Asian market are not something [-]th Century Fox has to worry about.

As for "Die Hard," after the script outline was completed, the first version of the script was just released.

Hanyu Hideki glanced through it and frowned decisively.

It cannot be said that it has nothing to do with the previous life.

But the gap is definitely huge.

So I didn't hesitate to pick up the red pen, smear on a large area, and delete it.

But it’s just a change in general direction and style.

One of the important reasons why "Die Hard Protagonist" can be successful is.

John McCarran, played by Bruce Willis, is not like the current governor Schwarzenegger or Stallone, who gives people a sense of strength beyond ordinary people.

Of course, John McCarron in the movie is also a powerful lone hero, but under the performance of Bruce Willis, he has the feeling of an ordinary person, giving the audience a stronger sense of empathy.

In the first version of the script created by Jeb Stewart, John McCarron was simply a superman.

Reading between the lines, I just want to find a hunk like Schwarzenegger to play John McCarran.

At this point, Hanyu Hideki directly denied it completely.

Looking at Hanyu Hideki's revised script, Fred Weber smiled bitterly.

"Boss, according to your request, it seems that my role selection range will continue to expand."

"After all, it's a movie with an investment of more than 2000 million US dollars, so no amount of trouble is too much."

Hanyu Hideki doesn’t want to directly appoint Bruce Willis yet. He will first look at the candidates selected by Fred.

"Yeah, I understand." Fred Weber nodded.

Next, Fred reported on the progress of several previous independent films.

Hideki Hanyu didn't care too much about this kind of low-budget movie, but he still seriously put forward some opinions to show his recognition of Fred Weber's work.

The two of them chatted directly into the afternoon.

At this time, Hanyu Hideki remembered what Bill Hart told him when he met Bill Hart in the parking lot, and asked Fred Weber curiously.

"I met Bill Hart when I came here and heard from him that you had invested in an independent film shot in North Hollywood."

When Fred Weber heard what Hanyu Hideki said, he rummaged through the information on the table until he found a document and then slapped his head and said.

"As for North Hollywood... it should be a Nielsen Entertainment project. We are just small investors. We invested [-] US dollars. We probably just started shooting. The funds are so small that I have forgotten about it. I have picked up a lot of small projects like this recently."

"Is the producer Martin Schaeffer?" Hanyu Hideki asked again.

"Huh? Does the boss know him too?" Fred Weber was a little surprised.

Hideki Hanyu replied, "I have seen the Legend of the Wild Collar he made."

In fact, Hanyu Hideki just made up a nonsense reason.

The reason he knew about Martin Schaeffer was that he would start preparations this year to establish an influential independent film company next year.

Castle Rock Entertainment.

The independent film company's first film project after its establishment was "When Harry Met Sally" directed by Robert Reiner.

The most well-known film work of this independent film company is the famous "Shawshank Redemption".

"It turns out that my investment in this movie is actually related to Martin Schaeffer. I have collaborated with his good friend Robert Reiner before, and it was Robert Reiner who came to me to invest this time. .”

Fred Weber explains.

Hearing Robert Reiner's name, Hanyu Hideki thought that he was one of the founders of Castle Rock Entertainment.

I heard that when Castle Rock Entertainment was established, the most important funding was brought by this director from Coca-Cola.

It seems to be because the other person served as an advertising director for Coca-Cola.

Hollywood says it's big, it's big, it's small, it's small.

Seemingly unrelated people in the circle can more or less gain some connections through other people.

And cooperation between each other is often promoted under such a relationship.

It doesn't matter if we are on the line with these two people now. If Castle Rock Entertainment raises investment by then, Yunshang Pictures can also take advantage of the situation and get involved.

Finished talking about independent films in North Hollywood.

Seeing that it was getting late, Hideki Hanyu extended an invitation to Fred Weber.

"Fred, if you have nothing to do tonight, how about we go have a drink together?"

When Fred Weber heard this, he asked curiously, "Don't the boss need to go home to spend time with his daughter?"

After Hideki Hanyu arrived in Los Angeles, he notified Fred Weber.

Fred Weber also knew that he had been staying at home with his baby daughter these past few days.

"Not for now."

Of course Hanyu Hideki would not tell his subordinates that he was kicked out by his child's mother.

But before Fred Weber could answer, the bell on his desk suddenly rang.

Fred picked up the conversation and said a few words. After putting down the phone, he said to Hanyu Hideki, "Boss, it seems you don't need me to go have a drink with you."

"Ok?"

Hanyu Hideki was wondering what was going on.

As a result, the office door was pushed open, and a man walked into the office led by Secretary Fred Weber.

The man was none other than Bill Hart, whom he had just met in the morning.

After this guy entered the door, he said to Hanyu Hideki and Fred Weber with a flattering smile.

"Mr. Hanyu, Mr. Fred, I recently found an authentic Texas barbecue restaurant. Are you interested in trying it together?"

As soon as Bill Hart's voice fell, Fred answered first.

"I've already made an appointment with someone else tonight. All Mr. Bill needs to do is make an appointment with Mr. Hanyu."

After Fred finished speaking, he stood up, put on his suit jacket, and left without waiting for Bill Hart to persuade him.

Hanyu Hideki was speechless when he saw this.

I thought to myself, Fred, this bastard, could he betray his boss so easily?

"Mr. Hanyu?"

Bill Hart could only look expectantly at Hideki Hanyu, who was left behind by Fred.

"Texas barbecue? You can try it too."

Hanyu Hideki didn't care, since he was idle anyway.

He was more interested in Texas barbecue than Bill Hart's invitation.

Smoky and slow-roasted, tender and juicy, Hanyu Hideki still likes it very much.

As for whether this guy had other ideas, he didn't care at all.

Bill Hart saw Hanyu Hideki agreeing and asked quickly. "Then let's leave now?"

"Ok."

Hideki Hanyu followed Bill Hart in the car, driving all the way to the southwest, and soon entered the territory of Inglewood.

After arriving at the restaurant, Hideki Hanyu discovered that the restaurant Bill Hart brought him to was different from the Texas barbecue restaurant with rough decoration in his impression.

Although you can still see the large outdoor smoking oven, the restaurant is in the style of an exquisite pastoral restaurant.

But when he first entered the restaurant under the leadership of Bill Hart.

It was immediately clear why this guy brought him all the way to Inglewood to taste barbecue.

An old acquaintance was already waiting in the restaurant.

Jenny wright.

Since that group movement, when the Sekimoto sisters arrived in Los Angeles, Hanyu Hideki has not looked for each other again.

When I was chatting with Fred today, Fred mentioned it.

It is said that Kathryn Bigelow's "The Night of the Blood Corps" script was not satisfied after several revisions, and Jenny Wright, the heroine, joined another crew as the heroine.

It seems like that crew was filming in Inglewood.

"Mr. Hanyu, long time no see." Jenny Wright greeted Hideki Hanyu warmly.

By the way, I also gave Bill Hart a grateful look.

After all, when Bill Hart was trying to win over a big shot like Hideki Hanyu, she was the first person he thought of.

"Hehe, long time no see."

Facing the enthusiastic woman, Hanyu Hideki said hello, but he didn't seem to be very interested.

What should I say? Of course this woman is beautiful.

But unfortunately for the scumbag, the novelty is gone.

But now that he has seen it, he won't just be cold-faced and just deal with it reluctantly.

And Bill Hart also noticed the problem from Hanyu Hideki's reaction and knew that he must have chosen the wrong person today.

At the same time, she realized that a woman without the qualifications to become famous in Hollywood would not be able to please the big shots.

Jenny Wright had outlived her usefulness to him.

As for Jenny Wright, she faced Hideki Hanyu’s perfunctory attitude and Bill Hart’s faintly disappointed eyes.

A woman's intuition made her keenly aware of something.

Immediately, he wholeheartedly began to please Hanyu Hideki, rubbing his ears and temples together, talking softly, and even bringing grilled meat to Hanyu Hideki's mouth in person.

If she hadn't been in public right now, she would have even wanted to perform a striptease to entertain Hanyu Hideki.

At this moment, a group of people suddenly walked in at the door of the restaurant.

There were a lot of people, nearly a dozen people at a glance.There is no telling whether there are men or women.

The most important thing is that there are not only white people in the crowd, but also several Asian faces.

Hanyu Hideki, who was focused on dealing with the beauty's flirtation, didn't pay much attention.

But this group of people caught Bill Hart's attention.

When this guy saw one of the old white men, his eyes suddenly lit up and he whispered to Hanyu Hideki.

"Mr. Hanyu, I saw a friend. I went to say hello. I'll be back soon."

Hideki Hanyu said, "Please do so."

After saying that, he didn't care who Bill Hart was looking for, but grabbed Jenny Wright's hand under the table.

He warned in a low voice, "Don't mess around here!"

Jenny Wright used her female talent to act like she was about to cry.

"Mr. Hanyu, I didn't mean it."

Hideki Hanyu didn't accept this at all, and said in a neutral tone, "Just concentrate on completing the work, and don't do useless things."

Seeing that all methods were ineffective, Jenny Wright knew that if things continued like this, she might not be able to keep her position in the New Century Agency, let alone Yunshang Pictures' projects.

I thought of a few female "friends" I met in stage plays before.

Jenny Wright gritted her teeth and secretly made a decision.

But just when she was about to speak, Bill Hart, who had just left, came back.

Bill Hart did not return to his seat immediately. Instead, he leaned next to Hanyu Hideki and lowered his voice.

"Mr. Hanyu, my friend wants to come and say hello to you."

"Who?" Hanyu Hideki asked.

"An Italian producer who used to work in the production industry in Rome. He began to develop in Hollywood after the 70s, mainly producing small-cost independent films."

Bill Hart kept his answers as brief as possible.

"No." Hanyu Hideki refused without hesitation.

This kind of independent producer couldn't make it in Italy and couldn't make a name for himself in Hollywood.

Even if you want to see the current Fred Weber, you need to make an appointment in advance.

Let alone him.

He is not a waiter in a restaurant, anyone can meet him if he wants.

The reason why he asked Fred Weber to invest in independent films was just to help Yunshang Pictures gain status and fame.

Do you really think he values ​​independent films?

In his future career plan, independent films are not dispensable, but they are by no means an important part.

Bill Hart was rejected by Hanyu Hideki, and he didn't dare to say anything, so he turned and left silently.

He walked to a table not far away and whispered to an old white man with gray hair and a short height.

"Mr. Dino, the gentleman said he is not available right now."

When the old white man named Dino heard this, he smiled slightly and said, "It doesn't matter. I still want to thank Mr. Bill for passing the message to me."

Dino is a mature man and has been in the European and American entertainment circles for so long. How could he not hear the polite rejection in Bill Hart's words?

"You're welcome, I'll take my leave now."

Bill Hart didn't get anything done and couldn't talk much, so he turned around and left.

And just after Bill Hart left, the old man Dino looked in the direction where Bill Hart left.

On the dining table there.

A handsome young man wearing a POLO shirt and beige casual pants was being fawned over by a blonde beauty, who looked like a student from college.

If not Hideki Hanyu, who else could it be.

Other Hollywood practitioners may not be familiar with this handsome young Asian man.

But the old man Dino knew some additional information about Hanyu Hideki because he held shares in a logistics company in Italy.

The Bellucci Transportation Company, which has recently been in the limelight in Italy through acquisitions, has also used massive funds to conquer the Apennine Peninsula transportation industry and continue to expand.

Behind it, there are inextricable connections with Hideki Hanyu.

This young man's wealth is beyond ordinary people's imagination.

Looking at Hideki Hanyu and thinking about his production company that was on the verge of bankruptcy, Dino was unwilling to let go of this rare opportunity.

He turned his head and looked at a young Asian woman next to him.

He thought that perhaps an Asian beauty could attract Hideki Hanyu's attention.

So Dino asked.

"Chen, can you do me a small favor?"

……

Hideki Hanyu discovered that no one can escape the law of true fragrance.

Just now, he felt that he was not interested in Jenny Wright and planned to send her away after dinner.

At this time, because of a few whispers from Jenny Wright and after seeing a photo, he became interested again.

Ok……

He just wanted to help a few confused Hollywood beauties with directing skills and had no other ideas.

The location was chosen at his Malibu mansion because several scenes required the beach.

With a purpose in mind, Hanyu Hideki began to eat meat faster.

After all, it's still quite a distance from Malibu, plus I have to pick up someone.

Spring nights are short, so it’s better not to waste time.

But when he finished eating the last piece of meat, wiped his mouth clean, and was about to get up and leave.

Suddenly a female voice sounded nearby.

"Mr. Hanyu, may I meet you?"

Hearing the sound, Hanyu Hideki turned around and found that the person standing at the table and chatting with him was a young Asian woman in a dress.

That face is really familiar.

Isn't this the one who made trouble at the domestic Spring Festival Gala last year?

Just like what he said about his sister-in-law before.

In the 80s, a large number of people in the entertainment industry, who were the first to see the overseas world due to the convenience of their careers, moved abroad one after another.

Among these people, his sister-in-law can only be regarded as an unknown person.

A certain Xue, a certain Li, a certain Yu, a certain Ru, plus the person in front of me, can be considered really famous.

However, most people keep a low profile after going out.

It is rare for this person to be able to talk about his misfortunes and come back to China repeatedly to make money after being criticized by the public, and his fame is getting bigger and bigger, which is considered rare.

"Who are you?" Hanyu Hideki looked puzzled, pretending he didn't know the other person.

"My name is Chen Zhong, an American actor." The young woman introduced herself.

America actor?

Hearing this, Hanyu Hideki almost couldn't hold back his complaints. He really thought I didn't know what you were doing.

However, the times have their own problems, and Hanyu Hideki will not comment on certain things.

During this period, I don’t know if the shooting of the controversial Hollywood movie in which the other party “dedicated himself to art” has started.

Although the cooperation between Yunshang Entertainment and the main station is still continuing, this person and him are not in the same league.

Hanyu Hideki couldn't figure out why the other party was looking for him, so he simply asked directly.

"Ms. Chen, I wonder what you want from me?"

"I have actually read Mr. Hanyu's novels. I didn't expect to see you here today, so I came here to express my admiration."

Chen Zhong had an expression of admiration on his face, as if a book lover saw his favorite author.

The old man Dino asked her for help just now, hoping that she could use her gender advantage to strike up a conversation with Hanyu Hideki, and then help them get to know each other.

However, after learning the information about the person she was chatting with, she discovered that she also knew Hideki Hanyu.

Therefore, Chen Zhong's expression at this time was not entirely fake.

She has actually read Hanyu Hideki's novels.

After all, as an "international friend" and "old friend" who has invested heavily in China, Hanyu Hideki's picture books and novels have no political leanings, so they easily passed the review and were translated and distributed domestically.

Let's put it this way, as an internationally renowned writer, Hideki Hanyu is also well-known in the domestic cultural circle, and has many cultural intellectuals and book fans.

For example, Chen Zhong likes the book "Love, Go Home" very much. She appreciates how the book describes the helpless fate of small people in the development of the times from the perspective of family love.

Even because of her professional advantages, she has watched some movies produced by Yunshang Entertainment, including "Go Home, Love".

However, in Chen Zhong's view, the movie "Go Home, Love" focuses too much on family love and deletes a large number of plots from the original work.

Especially what she considers the most important, the development and changes of the times.

If she were allowed to adapt and direct this novel, she would definitely focus on the boy's mother and depict in detail the frailty and helplessness of women caught up in the tide of the times.

And because of this, she also knew about Yunshang Entertainment represented by Hideki Hanyu.

This company has been cooperating with the main station in recent years, providing technical, financial and equipment support to the main station.

Therefore, after Yunshang Pictures made a commotion in Hollywood some time ago.

Chen Zhong guessed that it might be related to the great writer.

Seeing Hideki Hanyu appear here today, she felt that she had guessed it right.

So when Dino asked her for help, Chen Zhong agreed without hesitation.

Dino wants to catch up with the big shot Hideki Hanyu to solve the production company's dilemma.

Why doesn't Chen Zhong not want to solve his dilemma?

After the misfortune came out of her mouth and she was scolded again in America, she washed dishes and worked as a waiter in a restaurant. She was extremely eager to succeed in this "free" land.

This is why Dino invited her to star in the movie, and she resolutely agreed even though she knew that the large number of nudity in the movie would cause controversy.

If it wasn't for success, why would she come all the way here.

America is prosperous and powerful.

Hollywood's sluts.

This dazzling world attracted her deeply.

No matter what, she wants to succeed here.

"Thank you very much Ms. Chen for your support."

Hanyu Hideki said politely, with a sense of distance in his tone.

After all, Jenny Wright beside him was already quietly squeezing his arm, urging him to leave quickly.

She was probably worried that he would be snatched away by this Asian woman who suddenly appeared.

He even pinched his arm while deliberately puffing up his chest.

Like a peacock competing for beauty, trying to scare off competitors by showing off.

However, Chen Zhong seemed not to feel the dissuasion in Hanyu Hideki's words, and even ignored Jenny Wright's demonstration, and instead continued to talk on his own.

"Mr. Hanyu, I like your novel 'Love Comes Home' very much. I think..."

Chen Zhong's words, both inside and outside, deliberately convey a sense of "I understand your novel very well, and I understand what your novel really wants to express."

It seems like you want to create the character that I have great taste and I am a confidant in your book.

In addition to talking about the novel, the other party also mixed in some other words.

From these words, Hanyu Hideki could taste something else.

That is, "I have the ability, I want to succeed, please give me a chance."

But the problem is, Hanyu Hideki is not interested in this person.

Therefore, without waiting for the other party to finish speaking, he interrupted tactfully, "Ms. Chen, I have other things to do next. Regarding your understanding of my novel, you can go to Yunshang Pictures to talk to me in detail when you have time."

When Chen Zhong heard this, his eyes lit up with joy.

He hurriedly said, "Sorry, I took the liberty to disturb Mr. Hanyu. I will definitely visit you at Yunshang Pictures when I have time."

"Okay, then we'll see you another day."

Hanyu Hideki said this, but in his heart he wanted to see a ghost some other time.

As for his schedule, he couldn't go to Century City even once in ten days and a half. The other party's desire to see him at Yunshang Pictures was simply a dream.

After saying goodbye, Hideki Hanyu left the restaurant with Jenny Wright.

When Chen Zhong and Hideki Hanyu struck up a conversation, old man Dino, who thought there was a chance of matchmaking, found out after waiting for a long time that Hideki Hanyu had left directly.

Thinking of the increasingly dire financial situation of his production company, Dino couldn't hold back immediately and loudly questioned Chen Zhong who returned in a bad tone.

"Why didn't you introduce me to him?"

Chen Zhong had no idea that this old Italian man, who had been quite kind to her before, would suddenly have such a bad attitude.

But thinking about the upcoming movie, Chen Zhong could only pretend to be panicked and replied, "I didn't even have a chance to speak, and the other party said he was leaving."

But Chen Zhong didn't expect that old man Dino was such a good person that he wouldn't listen to her at all.

He pointed at Chen Zhong and said loudly in front of everyone.

"You're lying! Don't think I didn't see that you were like a woman seeking sex in front of that big shot. You only wanted to express yourself and completely forgot about me!"

Chen Zhong didn't expect that the other party would say such nasty things to her.

At this point she finally understood.

What Dino looks like now is what Dino really thinks of her.

The attitude that persuaded her to participate in the movie was just an act.

This Italian, from beginning to end, looked down on her from the bottom of his heart.

But for the sake of opportunity, she... could only endure it.

"That's not the case. I'm sorry, I really didn't have a chance to say it."

Chen Zhong's apology did not win Dino's forgiveness.

After all, it is unreliable for a weak person to place his hopes on the goodwill of the strong.

The strong's kindness towards the weak presupposes that the weak still have value.

For Dino, who was eager to change the company's financial situation and sought medical treatment urgently.

Yunshang Pictures, which has recently been willing to spend a lot of money in the independent film industry, is far more important than Chen Zhong.

So he said it unceremoniously.

"I saw that you had a good chat with that gentleman, so no matter what method you use, let me see him, otherwise I will not give you the heroine in the big class!"

Dino's words were like a thunderbolt to Chen Zhong.

I thought that after finally making it in Hollywood, I would be able to get the role of the heroine.

Although it is only a small-budget independent film, it is at least a good start and an opportunity for others to get to know her.

Although Hideki Hanyu was important, she didn't want to lose the opportunity she was about to get.

At this time, Dino warned again.

"Don't be ridiculous. This is an independent film. We are not registered with a trade union. No one can help you except me. If I don't see the big shot within a week, I will start the film immediately, but the heroine will be other's."

"I...I know."

Chen Zhong answered weakly, with a bitter taste in his mouth.

……

After leaving the restaurant, Hanyu Hideki was sitting in his Rolls-Royce.

But at this time, Jenny Wright was not the only beauty on these two extended cars with ample space.

Hideki Hanyu was hugged from left to right, even his legs were hugged by the beautiful woman.

The original Jenny Wright can no longer even get close to her.

At this time, Jenny Wright felt very complicated.

In order to win the favor of Hideki Hanyu, she took the initiative to introduce several "friends" she met while performing in stage plays in North Hollywood to Hideki Hanyu.

They come from all over the world, and some of them are not even American.

But according to her understanding of Hideki Hanyu, all of them are in line with Hideki Hanyu's aesthetics.

Young, beautiful, in good shape, facial features should be slightly softer.

But now Hanyu Hideki is happy.

But she didn't seem to get what she wanted.

But thinking about her own experience.

Jenny Wright suddenly realized something.

That is, Hanyu Hideki can like the new and dislike the old for her, and the same must be true for these "friends".

The biggest difference between her and these friends is that she thinks she knows Hanyu Hideki well enough.

Since she can make Hideki Hanyu happy by doing this now, it means that she can do the same in the future.

As long as she can continue to make Hideki Hanyu happy, that means she will always be the most special one.

Thinking of this, Jenny Wright immediately began to think.

There are so many women who want to move up in the North Hollywood theater scene.

In Hollywood, beautiful women are the most scarce resource.

Even if Hollywood doesn't exist, there are plenty of places in the world with beautiful women.

Next to him, Hanyu Hideki didn't know that Jenny Wright had planned to introduce beautiful women to him as an industrial chain operation.

At this time, he ordered the driver to rush to Malibu beach while chatting with the beauties.

As the topic continued, it came to the recently released "Top Gun" starring Tom Cruise.

After all, it grossed $820 million at the box office in its first weekend.

Now the North American box office has successfully exceeded [-] million US dollars.

Especially when talking about Kelly McGillis, who plays the heroine in the movie, the eyes of the woman in the car were so envious that they almost burst into flames.

After all, none of the women in the car came to Hollywood for fame and fortune.

A blockbuster movie with a box office of over [-] million in North America is enough for any female artist to achieve success in one fell swoop.

Seeing the envy and jealousy in the women's eyes, Hanyu Hideki didn't take it seriously.

If I remember correctly, Kelly McGillis was indeed popular for a while after she became famous with "Top Gun".

However, due to some bad experiences, the other party's future development was not as good as that of Nicole Kidman, who relied on Tom Cruise to become popular.

Thinking of this, Hanyu Hideki realized that he hadn't seen the Australian country girl for a while.

He abducted people to America, and he couldn't just ignore them.

It seems that before the filming of "Working Girl" starts, I should find some time to catch up with the local girl.
