American Peanuts

Chapter 101 Potential Work Adaptation

Nicole Kidman slowly opened her eyes, which had become blurry. When she saw Charlie's surprised expression, she seemed to realize something, suddenly broke away from the immersive role, and stood up immediately.

"Oh, I'm sorry, Mr. Charlie Rossi. It's my fault. I was too involved. I think something should happen between the two of them in that situation." Nicole Kidman said apologetically.

She liked this story very much...the scene just now was so similar that she couldn't help but act.

Apart from the image, I have to say that there is even some confusion in my heart.But this emotion only appeared for a moment and was forgotten by her. There is no room for this emotion in Hollywood.

Charlie knew it was too late, as long as he escaped from the moment just now, he would never go back.

"The audition is over, and honestly, you did a great job," Charlie said from the bottom of his heart.

Objectively speaking, the look in her eyes just now was enough for her to win an Academy Award.

From her, Charlie saw the professional qualities of an excellent actress, which was the ultimate level of devotion.

Charlie didn't know much about acting, but he felt that this should be regarded as the culmination of the "experience school".

"Thank you, but you still need to think about it, right?" Nicole Kidman said.

"Yes." Charlie nodded based on reason.

Nicole Kidman didn't dare to try acting again. She knew that she might have offended her, but just leaving like this... she was a little reluctant.

She no longer even considered whether she could get the role, but simply felt that there was still something missing.What exactly was missing, she couldn't tell.

When she thought of this, she became a little timid. She quickly stood up and started to put on her shoes.It matched her clothes very well. She was wearing a pair of light gold high heels with thin straps embellished with crystals today.

"Have a nice day, it's time for me to go."

Nicole Kidman says goodbye politely.

"Is there work to come?" Charlie asked.

"That's not the case. I'm going to give myself a vacation and go home to take a nap or something. I haven't had enough sleep during this time." Nicole Kidman said honestly.

"Sounds good. In fact, I was planning to take a day off today." Charlie said hesitantly.

"Oh, then I won't disturb you anymore." Nicole Kidman smiled generously.

"That's not what I meant. You didn't bother me. Instead, I wanted to say thank you." Charlie said suddenly.

"Really?" Nicole Kidman brushed the ends of her blond hair.

"Since you don't come to Los Angeles often, how about I, as a local, take you around the city?" Nicole Kidman changed her mind and suggested suddenly.

Actually, Charlie was planning to wander around the city today and visit some of the more important attractions.

With Nicole Kidman as a tour guide, it’s not impossible.

"Then it's settled." Seeing that Charlie didn't refuse, Nicole Kidman said immediately.

"I'm not looking for an opportunity to ask for a role, it's just a friend's mentality, and you will visit here often in the future, why don't you take this opportunity to get to know it?" Nicole Kidman suggested.

For some reason, Charlie felt that he was easily persuaded by her.

"It's decided."

Charlie took out his mobile phone and called Gal Gadot.

"Are you up?" Charlie asked.

"Actually, I was outside the door just now, and I am eating in the restaurant now. Do you want to go out, sir?" Gal Gadot asked.

"I want to go out, but I'm not in a hurry. Let's meet at the restaurant." Charlie hung up the phone.

"Have you had breakfast?" Charlie asked Nicole Kidman.

"I ate, but I can still eat some more now, so that I can save time to wander around the city at noon." Nicole Kidman tried to say.

"You are quite professional as a tour guide."

"Because I'm busy with work, I'll come up with plans to go out and play from time to time, thinking about all the big and small things and the specific route, but to be honest, I haven't used it once." Nicole Kidman smiled wryly.

The two came to the restaurant, where they could overlook the entire Los Angeles through the glass.

Gal Gadot and Artis were both here. Artis had finished her meal and offered to help Charlie get the food.This is just a normal hotel buffet restaurant, but the standards are a bit higher.

"By the way, bring one for Ms. Nicole Kidman." Charlie found the table where Gal Gadot was sitting, took off his suit jacket and put it on the back of the chair.

Looking at Charlie Rossi's two beautiful men, Nicole Kidman was slightly surprised, but she didn't say much.

Next, while eating, Nicole Kidman began to introduce some potential places to Charlie.

"There is nothing to see in the city. You can go to the old studios, the iconic water tank of Time Warner, and the building that appears in the Fox title. Universal has transformed the original studios into a theme park. All in all, it is very suitable. When traveling, don’t forget to wear a mask and glasses, there are many tourists there,” Nicole Kidman reminded.

"It's up to you, local." Charlie responded with a smile.

He discovered that Nicole Kidman ate very little and almost no meat.

"If you choose to become a star, you may have to say goodbye to the food in the world. I never eat any fried food." Nicole Kidman ate the eggs in small bites, with eggshell fragments still attached to her fingernails.

Gal Gadot looked at the food on her plate and suddenly couldn't eat anymore.

After eating and drinking enough, they started to set off. The group had a great time at Universal Studios. Artis and Gal Gadot wanted to take another tour bus on the way, and separated from Charlie and Nicole Kidman.

"Those two young girls are your men?" Nicole Kidman asked calmly until this moment.

"Of course, one is a little star who used to be in Hollywood, and the other is a rising star. She just got a role in Fast and Furious 4." Charlie was a little uncomfortable being covered by the mask.

"Awesome, so you plan to make your bodyguard famous throughout Hollywood in the future?" Nicole Kidman is applying the ice water she just bought to her arms to cool down.

"You may think so."

"What are your future plans?" Nicole Kidman tried to inquire again.

"You're like an undercover intelligence agent. You weren't sent by CAA, right?" Charlie pretended to be joking.

"I'm just curious."

"In terms of commercial films, we have become one of the distributors of Transformers, and we have also undertaken the production of Iron Man. In terms of non-commercial films, the King's Speech is currently being prepared, and the rest is the Reader in front of us. There is also "The Mist" adapted from Stephen King's work, and this film is the current key project of PB Films."

"Stephen King? When I debuted, I originally had the opportunity to play Carrie, but unfortunately I failed. I even dyed my hair specially for this."

Speaking of Stephen King, he can be considered a national-level writer.Known as the world's best-selling author, his works are mainly related to horror.

The "Carrie" mentioned by Nicole Kidman is Stephen King's famous work. Her wife discovered the story from a scrap manuscript that was thrown into the trash can, and then wrote it herself and sent it to the publisher. Opens up Stephen King’s Fury Road.

"Film and television works adapted from Taoist literary works..."

"Of course it's Harry Potter." Nicole Kidman said subconsciously.

"Where's A Song of Ice and Fire?"

"I've never heard of it." Nicole Kidman shook her head.

"What about American Gods? Well, this one is more niche... So, what about Twilight?" Charlie tried to ask.

"I know this. My neighbor's daughter likes to read it. Is this novel also going to be adapted into a movie?" Nicole Kidman looked confused.
