Hollywood Rhapsody

If Sarah is here, she will seriously remind Leon that it is her who is really the opposite!The scary curse of the Oscar queen, she broke up with her loving boyfriend a few months after the award, and the future of "retreat" in the next three years is very slim. Who else is closer to the double trough of love and career than her?

"All those who awarded you the best actress last year, you have to attend, this is the attitude you should have as a young junior." Michael is arranging the next work for Sarah, who is a low-profile actress.

After not coming to the office of Starlight Company in Los Angeles for nearly half a year, Sarah obediently sat across from Michael, with her hands on her knees like a good student obediently listening to lectures, she only nodded seriously: "No problem, I'm just an award presenter, It just so happens that I can also show my face in public, otherwise, everyone will probably forget who I am!"

Her words made Michael laugh: "I don't believe what I said. Although you haven't participated in any activities for half a year, your exposure rate is even higher than before. To be honest, I'm a little worried if you continue like this ,Your status is changing from a movie star to an entertainment star! The PR team has to suppress the tabloids about you, Leon and Matt Damon, which is a lot of work!"

Sarah was dumbfounded, and her small appearance suddenly felt extremely wronged: "You people are hard to serve. When there is no news, you rush me every day. Now that there is too much news, it's annoying. It's not easy to be a celebrity. I'm still a student. It's easier... oh... why is it so long before school starts?"

"Hmph! It's just a holiday and I'm thinking about the start of school. It's a beautiful idea!" Michael raised his eyebrows immediately when he heard this, "Yeah! It's easier to reject all the scripts I have worked so hard to find! But the little girl , I can remember all these accounts one by one, and when you graduate from college, I will personally tie you back to Hollywood!"

"Listen! This is the darkest inside story in Hollywood, unscrupulous agents! I should go out and complain to the media immediately!" Sarah made a look of aggrieved fear, and Michael grew older and younger like a cosplay.She saw that Michael was in a good mood and began to talk nonsense, and she was also very relaxed, not only because they did not have the pressure to compete for the award this awards season, but more importantly, she just spoke clearly with Leonardo, which was different from the previous Cold War refusal to answer the phone, As expected, many things should be resolved face to face. Although I don't think there is any difference in what I say, but with the part in the dubbing room, it seems that this relationship has finally drawn a fairly satisfactory end.It was as if a big rock had finally fallen to the ground in my heart. I was relaxed, and at the same time a little lost.

Therefore, Sarah was playing tricks, and Michael was very willing to cooperate, talking and laughing, and agreed on the next work.

After chatting about the schedule of the awards season, Michael knocked on the table to slow down his tone and began to chat about private matters: "So, did the dubbing go well this afternoon?"

"Ok, I knew you couldn't help it." Sarah looked down at her watch and said generously, "10 minutes, in order to satisfy my dear Uncle Michael's overly strong desire to gossip, I have to set aside 10 minutes pitifully. Question and answer time, ask, ask what you want to know."

Seeing this, Michael shook his head and sneered, and in order to preserve his professional image, he cleared his throat on purpose before explaining: "Look at you, I'm just worried about the stability of the company's top management, and I also want to pay for your return later." Make plans. If you and Leonardo break up peacefully and get along happily, the company may work for you to co-star in a movie or two."

"Movie? Stop! Did I just have an auditory hallucination? Or did you forget that I need to go to school?" Sarah tilted her head, looking at the handsome man in front of her in disbelief, not sure whether the other party was joking or talking in sleep , I even turned down a movie that might bring Oscar nominations, so how could I make a new movie with my ex-boyfriend Leonardo?Moreover, do we have to wait until three years later to start filming?

"You think my old man is willing to worry about it now? Good scripts are hard to find. If we miss one, we don't know when the next one will hit our heads. But you have been away from Hollywood for three years, and your popularity will definitely be affected. I have already calculated it. Next year "The Lord of the Rings" and "Harry Potter" will be released, followed by the second and third "Lord of the Rings", and "Gangs of New York", barely enough to last until your graduation year, Guaranteed that there will be a big movie every year that will let you show your face and give you a sense of presence." Michael shook his head and sighed, "However, the role has no bright spots, we can only hope that your beauty can conquer all "Lord of the Rings" "Gangs of New York" will stir up the topic of your breakup with Leonardo, which is also the publicity point of the public relations team for the next three years."

"Wow, the plan is very thorough." Sarah nodded in approval, and then asked proactively, "But?"

"That's right, but..." Michael nodded, and he did not deny that he said these words to lead to the next topic, "He handed a folder to Sarah. In the past three years, young and newcomers have stood out and entered everyone's field of vision. They may never achieve what you are today, but there is no doubt that they will take away your fans."

"..." Sarah flicked through the documents, as if she had been shot to the core.

"Movie fans are fickle. They are like grass on the wall. If you like you today, you may like Anne Hathaway tomorrow. At least I know that Anne Hathaway took the "Princess Diaries" you rejected, the movie It should be very popular with young audiences. It doesn’t matter if this happens once, or twice, but after three years, most of your fans will probably move on. After three years, God knows how many more People know who you are? Your name has probably become a part of film history, the glory of the past." When Michael said this, he took a deep look at Sarah, as if wondering how she would react.

And Sarah shrank a little from what he said, because she knew that these words were not alarmist, so their lethality was extraordinarily powerful.

"As for whether you can get back up again and rekindle your popularity, I'm afraid this is something I will plan from now on, so..." Michael sighed, with a look of hatred for iron and steel, biting Teeth poked Sarah's small forehead with his index finger, "Look, how many brain cells I have to die to support you in completing your studies! My old man is already old, you are accelerating my aging, you know?"

"Okay, okay, it's all my fault, Uncle Michael, you are the greatest manager in the world, bar none!" Sarah raised her hands in apology, making a pitiful look, and was even more moved in her heart She never thought of what Michael thought about her. She was really lucky in her life to have an agent who would pave the way for her and even consider three years later.

She blinked, suppressing the emotion that welled up in her heart, and cast a questioning look at Michael: "So, what's your big plan? It's related to Leon?"

"Temporarily keep it secret. After all, it will be three years later. I still want to ask that guy Leon if he is willing to cooperate with you! He may empathize with you and don't want to talk to you anymore!" After closing the door, he teased Sarah, "Speaking of which, how far have you and Matt Damon progressed? He hasn't succeeded in chasing you yet? Do you want him to be your male companion this awards season?"

"Tsk! This made me ask, if we walked the red carpet together, wouldn't our relationship be confirmed?" Sarah asked without answering.

"Understood, it seems that Mr. Damon is more in your favor than Ian, but we still need to work hard!" Michael nodded clearly. He seemed to still want to gossip, but unfortunately the door of the office knocked at this time. Sarah turned her head, and then her whole body was petrified and stunned.

Ian, who hadn't seen him for more than half a month, walked in first, followed by a Chinese woman with black hair and black eyes, Sarah's adoptive mother in her previous life—Chinese actress Lin Jin!

Ian waited for this Chinese Serena Lin and Sarah to finish their greetings, and then explained to his boss in a low voice: "Not long ago, I took Ms. Serena Lin to an audition, because you were in the final exam. For that reason, I didn't bother you."

"Audition? What movie? Also, how did you think..." Sarah was completely confused. Just now, her adoptive mother kept thanking her, as if all the audition opportunities were arranged by her, but she didn't remember Please Ian did such a thing.

"It's "Kill Bill", director Quentin Tarantino's new plan." Ian replied, raising his brows and asked, "Did I do it wrong again this time? I remember when you went to China I hit it off very well with this Ms. Lin, and talked about it several times to help her pay attention to the opportunity to develop in Hollywood..."

But after she came back, Sarah was all focused on the breakup drama, and forgot about it for a while...

Sarah met her adoptive mother with eyes full of gratitude, but her heart was full of mixed emotions. She was really ashamed to be grateful to her.Everything is thanks to Ian. He obviously didn't like her adoptive mother during his trip to China. When he came back, she was angry and arranged a lot of work, but he still remembered to pay attention to her. He even arranged for her adoptive mother's audition. Such a good opportunity to play "Kill Bill".

Where can you find such caring employees?It's time for a promotion and salary increase!But listen to what Ian said just now?

"Did I do something wrong again this time?"

This guy is obviously expressing his grievance and dissatisfaction with Sarah!Even though all their work was completed to a high standard, Sarah was still exiled to Hollywood. She pretended to use the opportunity of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" to steal lessons from Harvey Weinstein, but in fact she didn't want to Seeing him so he drove away?

"Thank you." Sarah moved her lips, recalling all the things after breaking up with Leonardo, she just refused to answer the phone to Leon, and her anger was actually vented on Ian.

"No, I did all this just to keep my job and avoid the danger of being fired." Ian's tone was as calm as before, but Sarah was dumbfounded. Emotions!

Now that the relationship with Leonardo has come to an end, the "anger" and exile towards Ian should also come to an end.In public and private, she really won't fire such a caring subordinate. As for how the two of them will get along in the future, I believe that with this punishment, Ian, who is as smart as Ian, should know her bottom line.Or maybe wait until she starts a new relationship to know whether "reform through labor" Ian has reformed.

But now, the first thing she knew was Ian's super ambition to poach the wall. After the intimate meeting with his adoptive mother, Ian offered to send Sarah back to the hotel where she stayed, and said in a tone of exclamation [today's weather is good] To Sarah: "Although the awards season has just started, I have a hunch that "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" will have a good harvest. Dear boss, your vision has always amazed me. Harvey Weinstein is indeed very talented. Ability, Hollywood is more interesting than I expected, after understanding the rules of the game, I found that winning awards is actually no different from a game of poker, but... since you admire Harvey so much, why don't you dig him into the stars?"

"What?" Sarah's jaw almost fell to the ground, "What a big breath! It's not like you can come out of such an unrealistic idea. Harvey has Disney behind him, so what is Starlight?" Although She once extended an olive branch to Harvey, but the other party obviously disliked the small size of the Starlight Company, so cooperation is possible, and the famous Harvey Weinstein can come to Starlight to work?This is a bit of an idiot's dream!To be honest, she was able to pick Michael Ovitz home when the boss was down, which is already a big pie in the sky.

"Very impractical? Maybe..." Ian shrugged, looked directly into Sarah's eyes and said slowly, "But I thought you would want it."

want to!I really want to!Ian really does always think of her needs!Facing Ian, Sarah unconsciously popped up the previous conversation with Leonardo in her mind for a moment. Leon asked her what she wanted. How could she not know what she wanted if she really put her mind to it?For example, Ian used the opportunity of cooperating with Harvey to arrange an audition for her adoptive mother, and for example, he had the idea of ​​poaching Harvey's corner, these are undoubtedly the embodiment of Ian's intentions...

Sarah had mixed feelings in her heart for a moment, but when she opened her mouth, she had a completely different attitude: "...I want so many things! Ian, if I really want something, I would prefer to do it with my own hands. Got it. And if one day I ask you to help me, it's probably because I want it like crazy!"

Sarah made an exaggerated expression of hunger and thirst. After speaking, she glanced at her watch and returned to normal, showing a polite and decent smile to Ian: "It's getting late, you should go to bed early... These days have been hard, If you want, I can give you a long vacation."

"Thank you, but unless I'm allowed to follow you to New Zealand for vacation, I don't have the hobby of enjoying vacation alone." Ian took Sarah's hand unexpectedly, and pressed a kiss before Sarah pulled it back, Without any more transgressive movements, he let go of his hands and smiled harmlessly and gently, "Good night, my dear boss!"

"Good night..." The corners of Sarah's mouth twitched, and the door of the hotel room was closed by her impatiently. Then she rubbed the back of the hand kissed by Ian on her clothes, and quickly passed the conversation between the two in her mind , couldn't help snorting twice triumphantly, "Heh~~ I can't kill you!"

She will leave for New Zealand after two award ceremonies. This kind of schedule is too easy for Ian to get it. Unfortunately, even if Ian wants to go with her, Sarah will not agree, so going to New Zealand for a "vacation" The words were simply that Ian was secretly expressing his dissatisfaction and unchanging intentions to her. So what if he was exiled to Hollywood and even missed her birthday?He is still thinking about Sarah's big meal!

And this result was not beyond Sarah's expectations. Unknowingly, she always felt like she was playing a game against Ian. At present, it seems that she has the upper hand, at least the handsome and reserved nobleman in the past, Now the ones being bullied by her are becoming more and more humane!Will beat around the bush and get emotional!When he is dealt with coldly a few more times, he should take the initiative to admit defeat and give up!From now on, just obediently work for her!

Ada looked at her cousin's little smug expression, and couldn't help being curious: "Aren't you bullying Ian to like you? Are you afraid of really annoying him?"

"He is reluctant." Sarah replied concisely.

Meeting Ada's ambiguous eyes, Sarah waved her hand and explained angrily: "I don't rule out the fact that he likes me, but he built the prophecy network himself, let alone the future gathering with Starlight Company. Isn't career attractive to him? He is only 23 years old this year, how can I value him so much in other companies?"

"Are you challenging the bottom line of his patience, forcing him to give up on you?" Ada shook her head regretfully.

And it was Sarah who answered her with an undeniable shrug: "I suspect that he doesn't know what love is at all. Maybe it's the environment in which he grew up that created his indifference. I can see his concern, his thoughtfulness, He appreciates it, but I can't feel how deep his feelings for me are. Maybe this person has a flaw in expressing his feelings, so I always feel that something is missing. When we get along, it is more like a business of friends and foes. partner."

"It's really yours, and Ian is used as a research object in psychology class?" Ada rolled her eyes angrily. In her opinion, Ian is very good.

"Maybe I can really write an analysis report!" Sarah raised her eyebrows, as if she really planned to do so.

The two teased each other a few more words, and it wasn't until Matt Damon called that Ada ended her girlfriends time wisely and went back to her room.As for Sarah, she was in the right mood after getting rid of two men who made her unhappy, and answered the phone with a relaxed and cheerful tone.

Matt Damon seemed to be infected by Sarah, and he kept smiling when he spoke: "I thought you would complain to me, I heard that all the paparazzi in Hollywood ran to follow you?"

"Where is it so exaggerated, at least I know that someone is squatting on your set." Sarah found a comfortable sleeping position on the bed, and yawned slightly.She has already sent the conversation over, wondering if Matt Damon will ask her about meeting Leonardo. It is said that the reporter who went to the studio today took advantage of the break and asked Matt Damon about The attitude of this matter, I want to capture the scene where the man is jealous or worried.

But to Sarah's surprise, Matt Damon didn't answer. He chatted with her as usual, and said one or two interesting things about today's filming. He is now in the movie starring his friend Ben Affleck. In the film, he played a small role, and the filming was completed within a few days: "If the filming goes well, maybe I can catch the flight to New Zealand, but I don't know if your suitcase can fit me."

"This is a good question. I have to find a ruler to measure it." Sarah pursed her lips and suppressed a smile. Some people are born with good eloquence, and they can always make people laugh so much when they would otherwise cause embarrassment. This is probably because Mr. Matt Damon's unique personality charm?

Just as Sarah was sighing in her heart, there was a knock on the door on the other end of the phone. Matt Damon opened the door while maintaining the call, and soon Sarah heard Ben Affleck's greeting from the air. It was almost late at night, But the buddy was still very excited. When he heard that Sarah was on the other end of the phone, he teased Matt as if he had taken a stimulant. He even wanted to grab the phone and listen to Sarah's sexy voice, so Sarah Comfortably in the bed, I listened to the original soundtrack of an action movie dedicated by "the first CP of the future nation"——

"Get off my bed! You slob! Let go, I haven't told Sarah a bedtime story yet!" There was the sound of a mattress creaking.

This was followed by Ben Affleck's aggrieved cry: "God, Matt! You twisted my ears! You should have let Sarah know what a violent person you are."

"Because it tried to hear notes that didn't belong to it!" A man accused of violence apparently thought he was innocent.

And the victim is now probably rubbing his stomach with acid reflux water: "Oh! Can you be more numb? Why don't you just say that Sarah's voice is heavenly?"

"Thank you for speaking my heart. Now, you can go back to sleep." It seemed that under strong force, the victim was finally thrown out of the room.

"Thank you, it's a wonderful bedtime story." This thank you came from Sarah, the only listener of this program. Is it the third party who disturbed the lover?She held back a smile and said good night to Matt Damon, and finally couldn't help it, and before hanging up the phone, she quickly added, "You and Ben Affleck are so good..."

"..." Listening to the beeping busy tone, Matt Damon squeezed his phone and decided to go to the next door to exercise his fists.

If Sarah was here, she would definitely add more firewood: "So menacing, are you going to Zhengfu Gang?"

The author has something to say: I'm just here to roll around and be cute!

love me Please!love me Please!
