American Peanuts

Chapter 195 It's Actually Cheap, Big Cousin

However, it was still too late at this time, so Charlie personally called Eva Green twice, but no one answered.

"It seems we can only try again tomorrow." Charlie habitually opened the chat software and opened the chat history with Scarlett this afternoon.

[Scarlett Johansson: I'm extremely sorry. I was too reckless last night. I shouldn't have picked up your phone and checked your private information. They weren't angry with you, were they? 】

[Charlie Rossi: How is that possible? They are just curious as to why you are in my home so late at night. 】

[Scarlett Johansson: Then you have to tell them that I left early and did not spend the night at your home. 】

[Charlie: Of course, when you got in the car, I took a photo and sent it to them. 】

【Scarlett Johansson: (in a daze) (in a daze) (in a daze)】

[Charlie: Also, a friend of mine asked me to ask if there are any new ones. 】

[Scarlett Johansson: (blushing)]

[Scarlett Johansson: Is this friend you are talking about yourself? 】

Throughout the afternoon, Charlie and Scarlett chatted about each other. Most of the time, Scarlett took the initiative to speak. She clearly said she was going to the gym to exercise in the afternoon, but she still chatted with Charlie.

Her attitude seems to have crossed the line between actor and producer.

Are celebrities so boring?This is obviously not the case.

Charlie feels that this may be the way Scarlett gets along with the film crew.Try your best to build a good relationship with the film crew. As for whether there are other things, it’s hard to say.

When he thought of this, Charlie felt uncomfortable in his heart.

In the past, it was only through the screen, but now when I face these big Hollywood stars in person, I realize that they are nothing more than that.

"Today's party went well, and we successfully secured investment. The price he offered was twice that of Millennium Pictures." Stallone was lying on the bed in his pajamas, holding a cigar in his hand, looking at his wife's slender back, happily of opening.

Flavin was wearing a bathrobe, his long wet hair was wrapped up, and he was sitting in front of the dressing table, wiping his face and taking care of himself.

Then I heard her say: "By the way, I'll also solve the issue of your daughter's film appointments, so that she doesn't have to wallow in the mud like you."

Of course Stallone has devoted resources to his daughter, but action movies are not suitable for his daughter.

"This young man is really different from the bosses of other film studios. I can see the respect for action movies in his eyes. I would say that his movie will most likely be a hit and will definitely change the current structure of Hollywood."

"Then you'd better pray that he develops slowly and avoids a sudden heart attack or something." Flavin turned around, unwrapped the towel wrapping his hair, and his wet hair fell down, and a special feeling filled the room. of fragrance.

She walked to the bed, lifted her left leg, and poked Stallone with her toe.

"What?" Stallone was puzzled.

"What do you think?" Flavin pinched his waist and said angrily.

At the same time, in the next bedroom, the three Stallone daughters were gathering together.

"Sorry, I thought this was Mr. Charlie Rossi's call." Sofia apologized. After hanging up the phone, she saw her two sisters lying on the bed laughing.

"Oh, I know this situation, the senior boys always want my contact information, I finally gave him my dad's phone number, and he hasn't bothered me since then." Scarlett Rose Stallone hugged the pillow and narrowed his eyes when he laughed.

"The beautiful Ms. Sophia encountered setbacks when she took the initiative for the first time in her life. That's not how the script was written. You didn't get the supporting actress role, did you?" Sistine followed up with sarcasm.She was holding her mobile phone and scrolling through relevant discussions about the Iron Man movie on the Internet.

"Watch less TV series. It's not what you two think. He is a big shot and has no time to deal with my little things, so he left the secretary's phone number." Sophia explained anxiously.

"You also know that you are just a trivial matter? Give up, Sophia, you have no chance." Sistine put down the phone and said with a little mockery.

"Who said that? I'm going to let you two take a good look tonight." Sophia opened the door angrily.

"What are you going to do?"

“Ask Dad for Charlie Rossi’s contact information!”

·
For Charlie, who is used to being accompanied by others, tonight is a lonely night, but fortunately, everyone in Eden Garden has not fallen asleep yet.

[Taylor: Honey, how was Kristen’s first performance on stage? 】

[Adam: That was a disaster. Now I understand that not everyone is as possessed by a muse as you are. They are far behind you. 】

【Taylor: I thought you didn't like hearing me sing. (kiss)】

[Faith: (Photo) I just heard your daughter speak. 】

[Adam: Faith, Luna is less than two months old, are you sure you haven't hallucinated? 】

Victoria followed family tradition and named Charlie's daughter Luna, the same name as the moon goddess.

[Giselle: So cute!Really looking forward to next month. 】

【Linney: Next month, Giselle will give birth too. 】

[Megan: Speaking of which, when will you come back? 】

[Ivanie: When will you come back? 】

[Stephanie: When will you come back? 】

[Hadley: When will you come back? 】

[Taylor: +1]

[Adam: I will come back as soon as possible after attending Apple's shareholder meeting. 】

[Faith: Don't listen to them. Everyone is very busy during this time. You make money, and we won't be merciful to you! 】

[Giselle: No mercy! 】

[Tyler: We’re going to spend all your money! 】

[Ivanie: Spend all your money! 】

Charlie was a little dumbfounded. It turned out that they were really not merciful when it came to spending their own money. In the most exaggerated month, the combined expenses of everyone exceeded eight figures.

But to say the least, they didn't spend Charlie's money, but Charlie felt uncomfortable. After all, this was different from other people's family composition, and he had to find a way to make up for his debt to them.

Furthermore, money is always something outside the body, and if you earn it, you spend it on your wife and children.

Thinking about it this way, eight figures a month... is very cheap.

During the rest of the time, Charlie spoke very little and mostly watched them chatting with each other. Everyone also realized that Charlie was diving, so they chatted more enthusiastically.

Just then, an unfamiliar number called.

This is Charlie's personal number. Most work-related matters will be called to his secretary.

Telephone numbers in the United States are unified into ten digits and are divided by region. You can tell by the numbers that this is a Los Angeles number...

Charlie thought for a while and chose to answer.

"Is it Mr. Charlie?" A timid voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Yes, who are you?" Charlie asked.

Then I heard several low-pitched exclamations from the other end of the phone, and it seemed like someone was around.

"We met today."

"Sophia?"

"That's right, you haven't forgotten me." On the other side of the phone, Sophia looked up at the two sisters standing next to her with their ears raised.

"Artis didn't answer the phone? How did you find my number?"

"Ms. Artis answered my call. We have already made an appointment. This number is what I asked my father for."

"It's so late, doesn't it disturb your parents?"

"It shouldn't be a bother, I've seen it before anyway." Sophia's face suddenly turned red as she recalled the scene she just saw.

"If you come to this store to find me, you'll be fine, right?"

"It's nothing, I just want to confirm your phone number, and by the way...hear your voice."

This... Charlie felt like he was secretly blessed by the God of Peach Blossoms. Why do these girls like to throw themselves into his arms so much?
Is this the suffering that rich and handsome men have to endure?
But thinking about it carefully, Scarlett was somewhat interested in her own future. As for Sophia, he really couldn't figure out the reason for this feeling.

Maybe, just want to play with yourself?She does have this possibility, but she will not devote herself to her own company.

"I don't understand, we only met once, right?" Charlie laughed.

"One meeting is enough, don't you think?" Sofia felt more and more relaxed. In fact, Charlie's hesitation just now proved a lot.

"I……"

"Are you free? Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, or tonight. I want to meet you. I won't tell my father. This will not affect the cooperative relationship between the two of you." Sophia took advantage of the situation to send out an invitation and opened it by the way. Hands-free.

The two younger sisters moved closer and covered their mouths at the same time to ensure that they would not make the slightest sound.

"Sophia..."

"You said, I'm listening."

"I pretend I didn't hear what you just said. If you continue like this, I will have to tell your father."

"*S**t!" Sofia hung up the phone angrily, and at the same time heard the two sisters burst into laughter.

"Today is really an eye-opener for me. I will remember this night in my heart." Sistine said cheerfully.

Sophia got really angry, and pushed Sistine and Scarlett, who were still booing, out of her room.

"Go out!"

·
"Sir, I can finally see you in person. I wonder if yesterday's work went smoothly?" The voice of the person who pushed the door in was slightly hoarse.

The blond white female star with a ponytail has a decent smile and exudes a special kind of confidence.Her face shape is a very standard oval face, with obvious apple muscles and exposed forehead, which gives people a very friendly feeling. Rather than being a high-ranking celebrity like Natalie Portman, she is more like someone you bump into from time to time next door. Big cousin.

Only the wrong name, no wrong nickname.

Charlie was sitting in the office of PB Films. Friedman had gone out before, and it was only him and Jennifer Lawrence in the office at the moment.

"It's going well, my girl." Charlie stood up and opened his arms, beckoning to her.

She was quite flattered and approached him, giving Charlie a big hug.

She didn't even let go immediately, but stayed for a few seconds longer, rubbing her hands on Charlie's back twice.

"I just came to see you now, won't you be angry?" Charlie said.

As West Weinstein's love interest, she has a close relationship with Weinstein Films.

In fact, Charlie should have met with her long after he acquired Westan, but due to various reasons, it was postponed repeatedly until now.

"You underestimate me too, sir." Jennifer Lawrence shook his head with a friendly smile on his face.

Charlie asked her about her experience during this period, and the two quickly started chatting. The atmosphere was particularly harmonious, and they looked like old friends they hadn't seen for a long time.

"But what I've always been curious about is how did you and Weinstein meet?" Charlie asked casually.

"That came from an audition, but nothing happened between me and that scumbag. Please rest assured." She said with extra sincerity, covering her chest.

As soon as Charlie heard this, everyone could see the real situation.Weinstein would later push her to the throne of Oscar-winning actress, so it couldn't be just "pure appreciation", right?

However, Charlie has absolutely no need to expose her.

"But you are indeed very busy. Some people have contacted me before and asked me to star in other movies. I was afraid of making you think too much, so I turned them down. This made me unemployed for several months." Jennifer Lawrence spoke up Turn, he said casually.

"Who contacted you?"

"The other party doesn't want me to say his name, I just mentioned it casually." Jennifer Lawrence shook his head quickly.

This is not something you say casually, but something you deliberately say to yourself.

The subtext is probably: If you don't have enough resources, sister, I will vote for another family.

She is fully qualified to do this. After all, she has no contractual connection with Weinstein Pictures. At best, she is just a "friend" of Weinstein and can leave at any time.

The motivation for doing this is also obvious. Firstly, Charlie and Charlie are not familiar with each other, and there is a lack of trust between them. Secondly, and most importantly, there is no shortage of actresses under Charlie. On the surface, there is Gwyneth, and there are many others in the same age group. With Jetta and Margot Robbie, not to mention Christine and others later, she certainly felt the pressure.

"Then tell the other person that you can accept other videos." Charlie said.

"This..." Jennifer Lawrence was taken aback for a moment, then nodded helplessly.

"Thank you for your tolerance."

"Tolerance can't be described above my head. Why don't we tell the truth? With your current reputation, you won't let others poach you. Otherwise, you wouldn't sit here with me and talk nonsense, right? So? , your friend’s name is Mr. Air.” Charlie said leisurely.

"I..." Lawrence realized that he had been found out.

"I'm sorry, sir. I was just a little hesitant, so I used this method to gain your attention." She explained earnestly.

This seemed very stupid at first, but Lawrence had almost no leverage now, so he could only use this method.

"I promise to complete your arrangements excellently. Please give me a chance, sir, and I will satisfy you." She put her hand on Charlie's leg, with a hint of eagerness in her eyes.

"Actually, you don't know me very well. Since I came to see you, I already have a plan for the next step. A fantasy movie adapted from a novel, with you as the protagonist. However, in view of your performance just now, I am ready to change my mind. , To be honest, I'm a little sleepy." In the afternoon, when the sleepiness hit, Charlie hiccuped and stretched himself.

Jennifer Lawrence didn't hesitate much and chose to get up.

Just when Charlie lamented that she left very simply, he received a text message from Jennifer Lawrence less than 10 minutes later.

"The building next door is Palm Hotel, 2413."
