[American Entertainment] The road to becoming a god

Gaspar woke up early the next morning, but he lay in bed for at least 2 minutes to accept last night's... as if drunk high self.

Yes, his memory has not been lost in any way, from being drunk by noble ladies and wives to flirting with Michael Hodge at close quarters, he remembers it all, and even remembers every detail clearly.

So the question is, how will he go on naturally to face everyone, especially Michael Hodge.Judging from the performance of the British last night, he must also have some special feelings for him.Thinking of this, Gaspar sat up from the bed, and then slapped himself hard.

Gasper was the first to waver, and Gasper was the first to point out, so the first to lose... Gasper would still be the first.

He didn't want to be the one who lost, but...

Gaspar got off the bed and was immediately surrounded by a strong smell of alcohol. He lowered his head and confirmed that the smell came from himself—this is the price of sobriety, and he no longer has absolute tolerance.

Gaspar took off his inner lining without hesitation. Thankfully, he only wore this to sleep last night. If he had brought all those bits and pieces with him, the first thing he would think of when he woke up today would be body aches.

On the bedside cabinet are neatly arranged new clothes, and underneath are shoes, all in Gasper's size.

【Joe?are u there? 】Gaspar tried to get in touch with the agent while getting dressed, the fruit wine did not make him forget Joe’s order before, 【You want me to leave the manor, I received this instruction, but I am completely confused now, the system is in your hands There, it's up to you to tell me exactly what to do. 】

[Stop the chatter, Garth, it's a little before five o'clock in the morning. 】Joe said slowly, lazily, but obviously he has woken up, 【Now go downstairs according to my instructions, use the stairs on the left hand side of the door. 】

However, Gaspar did not act immediately, he got dressed and sat down by the window.

[Guess what,] Gaspard said with quasi-victorious glee, [You have to tell me why I left the manor, or my ass would be glued to this bed today. 】

Joe made a painful voice, 【What are you getting on your nerves again, do as I say, or...】

Gaspar: [What else? 】

【... Just, go downstairs. 】

[No, I insist. ] Gaspar was resolute, 【I demand to know what will happen—the system, you tell. 】

[Oh, you want to know now, why didn't you read the encyclopedia when I asked you to read it together. 】

[It's two different things, Joe. 】Gaspar bit his lip unconsciously, he was wondering whether to tell Joe what happened last night, because judging from Joe's performance, he knew nothing about it. [Last night...] Gaspar said hesitantly, [some things happened last night, something beyond expectations, I must...must make myself firm. 】

Joe was silent for a while and said [If you stay in the manor this morning, then...you will be with Michael Hodge, he loves you very much, and your life is far better than before. 】

【but? ] Gaspar held down his beating heart, 【Come on Joe, I know there are buts. 】

[But——that's only temporary, you will end up in endless pain, and your family... Adina, Adam and Carliss will...] ​​Joe didn't finish his sentence in the end, but It was precisely because of the second half of the sentence that Gaspar completely gave up the little hope in his heart.

Family is always his first priority. When he heard Joe's words, the thread in his mind that was about to be broken was restored silently.Without hesitation, Gaspar chose to give up. He stood up and walked out of the door without even taking a last look at it before it closed.

Of course, he didn't forget to bring the banknotes stuffed into his clothes last night, thanks to those ladies and ladies, it was they who made Gaspar experience the feeling of a high-end stripper.

Gaspar looked at the huge manor in front of him, 【What should I do. 】

[Go down the stairs on your left, and you will meet a maid when you reach the lobby on the second floor, ask her to tidy up your room. ] Joe said calmly, just like the guys who do technical support in those spy movies, 【Then you change to the stairs on the right hand side to go to the first floor, when you reach the door, you will meet the first valet, say hello to him, Don't give him time to ask questions, let him call a taxi for you. 】

Gaspar asked him to do what he said, and everything went smoothly. When he got in the taxi and saw the helpless expression of the first male servant through the rearview mirror, his mood that had been sluggish all morning instantly recovered.

[Then the next step——]

Gaspar: "Go to the Mary Jane's."

……

Before arriving at the bar, Joe disconnected with Gaspar. The reason given by the agent was—"I have to go, and I have to do some things.", but Gaspar was keenly aware of Joe's unusual, So Gaspar reasonably guessed that it was Ms. Ivana who caused the manager to panic so much.

However, Joe hangs up the instant call before Gaspar can make a joke, and Gaspar regrets losing the opportunity to tease his agent.

"Minors are prohibited from drinking alcohol, please show your ID."

This bar called Mary Jane is not big, and it looks as inconspicuous as all the bars scattered in the city. The only difference is that there is a 24-hour sign on the outside of this bar.Seeing Gaspar walk in, the old bartender behind the bar asked him to show his ID card without emotion.

Of course Gaspar wasn't here to drink, and he showed his ID to the dejected bartender.Due to the time, there were only a few drunks lying on the tables in the bar.This allowed Gaspar to easily find the somewhat out of place figure in the corner - Christopher Nolan.

"American?" The bartender finally opened his eyes a little bit after looking at the ID. He looked at Gaspar and confirmed his age again. "Even if you are an American underage, you can't drink. Let's go."

"I'm here to find someone," Gaspar explained. He pointed to Nolan who was drinking alone. "He's my brother."

The old bartender naturally didn't believe Gaspar's words. Although he was very tired after working the night shift all night, he had to know that if he was found selling alcohol to minors, he would not only face high fines and even jail time.So the old bartender came out from the bar and took Gaspar to the side of the grown man himself.

"Hey dude, do you know this kid?" he asked.

Nolan was about to drink... Judging from the table, it was the fifth bottle of beer. He turned his head slowly and glanced at Gaspar indifferently.

"Bars are not the place for minors," he said. "Go home, boy, orange juice is for you."

Normally Christopher Nolan isn't a mean guy but today his directorial career just got off to a 'waterloo' and a year of painstaking indie films were lost due to some stupid technical issues Most of the time, so he can't be too harsh on him for showing no mercy to the young man in front of him.

"You heard me, go out now." The old bartender made a gesture to drive people away. Before he grabbed Gasper's arm, Gaspar dodged away, and then slid into the seat very naturally and sat on the decadent Nuo Opposite Lan.

"I came to you for something important, don't drive me away." Gaspar put his hands together and prayed to Nolan, "About your movie, the independent production of "Follow" that was shot with handheld photography throughout."

What is this kid doing? Nolan finally agreed to take a serious look at the boy opposite him. He narrowed his eyes slightly to resist the double image caused by alcohol. After a few seconds, the boy's appearance was transmitted to his mind through the retina. Nolan realized that I have an impression of this face.

At this time, the old bartender on the side was already impatient, and his frown was comparable to that of a pug, "Okay, don't say anything, come out with me." As he said, he was going to drag Gaspar's arm.

"and many more."

At the very moment, Nolan stretched out his hand to stop the old bartender. He wiped the beer froth from the corner of his mouth with his thumb and said, "I remember now, this is my cousin." He smiled at the old bartender, and then handed him a pound As a tip, "Sorry man, I didn't recognize it just now... Can you bring him a glass of orange juice, please."

The old bartender was not unreasonable either. He accepted the money and restrained his temper at the same time, "There is no orange juice, only milk, do you want it?" He asked.

Gaspar raised his head and gave a friendly smile, "Don't worry, I've had breakfast in the morning, thank you." Actually, no, Gaspar hasn't eaten since he came out of the manor.

The old bartender didn't care too much, he shrugged and went back to the bar.

After watching the old bartender leave, Nolan looked away and looked at Gaspar again, "I know you," he said, "You are from "Terminator"..."

"Little John, it's me." Gaspar seamlessly connected. "I'm Gaspar Cook, nice to meet you." He held out his right hand.

"Right..." Nolan nodded, and quickly shook hands with Gaspar politely, "Nolan, Christopher Nolan, I don't understand how you know about me and that I made a movie?"

Gaspar casually made up a name: "Jason, I know from him, he helped you on the weekend, don't you remember?"

Maybe there is such a person, or maybe not, but that doesn't matter, Nolan didn't care about it at all, what made him believe Gaspar was the word 'weekend', his movie really used countless Filmed over the weekend.

Wait, Nolan suddenly thought of something, and he asked, "Why do you call it "Follow", I haven't decided on its name yet... Of course, Follow is very good."

Gaspar froze. When he learned the name of the movie of the future famous director from the system and Joe, he did not expect to encounter such a situation, "Uh... I just listened to the general content for convenience. Call it "Follow", if it offends you..."

"No offense, I think this name is very good." Nolan waved his hand, then picked up the beer glass and took a big sip.

"That's really great." A thin layer of sweat broke out on Gaspar's nervous back, which almost aroused suspicion. If Nolan really insisted on pursuing it, he really had nothing to say, "Then ——" Gaspar licked his lips and quickly changed the subject, "I don't understand the plot very well, can you give me a detailed introduction?"

With a sound of 'Dang', Nolan slammed the beer glass in his hand on the table, almost half of the golden liquid inside spilled out due to the violent shaking.

"Stop talking bloody fools, kid." Nolan glared at Gasper. "Tell me—what do you want."

It's really overwhelming for a usually gentle and elegant person to get angry. Gaspar was overwhelmed by Nolan's sudden anger, and when he held it in front of him, he was seen by the angry man and him on the system photo. It's simply not the same person.

But always speak clearly.

Under Nolan's gaze, Gaspar slowly leaned over, put his hands on the table, looked him straight in the eyes and said, "I want you."

Nolan looked into Gaspar's eyes, and it took more than ten seconds for him to realize that the boy in front of him was not joking.

"You want me." He repeated Gaspar's words.

"Yes." Gaspar reaffirmed, "I want to give you a chance, and I also want to give myself a chance."

Nolan was dubious, he spread out a hand to signal Gaspar to continue.

Gaspar: "I really like your movie. If it's correct, it should be shot and entered post-production by now, right? I think I can help you contact the distributor, although it can't because of production problems Large-scale distribution, but small-scale releases can still be done."

It turned out to be like this, Nolan gave a soft smile, "You are one step late, there is a problem with the film, the entire second half is lost and cannot be retrieved, and I don't have the ability to make it up, so... I Think it might be put on hold forever."

"Lost?"

"Yes." Nolan nodded, "Improper preservation, more than ten meters were damaged."

Gaspar suppressed the surprise in his heart. It was different from what Joe reminded him. He thought Nolan was here to drink and celebrate... No wonder Gaspar felt that Nolan was in a bad mood when he first met him.

If the film was damaged, there would be nothing else to do. Gaspar couldn't hide his pity, but after thinking about it, isn't this a wonderful opportunity?

"You only used 5k blocks for the original shooting, right?" Gaspar asked suddenly.

"No, 6k," Nolan replied, "I spent 6k pounds."

"It only cost 6k pounds..." Gaspar muttered to himself, "The scene is simple, not a problem, props and cameras..."

Seeing his long eyes, Nolan kept talking about shooting-related issues, so he couldn't help asking curiously, "What are you doing?"

"Calculations." Gasper's eyes returned to Nolan's face, "Your movies are black and white, right?"

"Well, the cost of shooting in color is at least double."

"Double..." Gaspar recalculated and looked at Nolan, "Do you think 5 pounds and two weeks are enough to reshoot a color one?"

Christopher Nolan was dumbfounded. He watched Gasper make a classic British pronunciation——

"WHAT???!"

--------------------

The author has something to say:

The author babbles: Let me tell you here, the source of Gaspar’s feelings for Hodge is very complicated, the bad native family caused Gaspar to lack love since he was a child, but he had to grow up to protect his younger siblings from the wind and rain , until now there are not many people who really treat Gaspar well.

Manager Joe is one of them, so Gaspar is willing to share everything with him and be self-willed in front of him, but this can't make up for his lack of fatherly love. The muddleheaded sank in.

But that was the end of it, Gaspar lacked love, but he was smart enough not to go any further.

However, he was not the only one who fell into it, so... well, I understand everything.
