Producer [American Entertainment]

The pleasant dinner was over, and after Wheeler's grandparents left, Sabatino held William's hand at the table and asked in a soft and concerned tone, "Are you okay?"

William looked back at his cousin with a puzzled face: "What can I do?"

It was a familiar look, Sabatino thought.

St Mary's Hospital, London, last year.

Facing William who insisted on attending the funeral of his parents, Sabatino said softly: "I'm sorry, are you okay?"

William, who was sweating profusely and was so tired that he could only lie on the bed, tried to open his eyes wide, with an expression of "I don't understand what you're talking about".

"From the beginning to the end, you never cried," Sabatino pointed out.

"I've grown up, and only children cry." When William replied, his tone didn't fluctuate at all.

Moreover, as my mother said, crying is the most useless weapon. It will only make the enemy happy, the loved ones will be hurt, and the dead will not be at ease at all. He doesn't want them to be at ease.

In reality, Sabatino is making a second attempt to establish real communication with William: "I'll go out with you tomorrow, you haven't been around Los Angeles very well, Disneyland, Universal Studios, St. Monica's Playground..."

"I'm not ten years old, nor eight years old, but." William had to remind his cousin that he thought him too fragile.

"Whenever you have the courage to watch Arsenal play again, discuss this with me again."

"...I'm not avoiding it, I just, just don't like football, or any sport that involves sweating."

Sabatino didn't refute, but he didn't admit that William was right. He had his own perception of William's emotions. Sometimes, he felt that he even knew himself better than William.

"Aren't you going to Microsoft's Los Angeles branch tomorrow? Don't tell me that's not important. I already know about hippies organizing protests outside the company."

Hippies were a unique dimensional culture in the United States in the 70s and 80s, and they are still active in the early [-]s.They oppose all mainstream things, including emerging computers and Microsoft's skype chat software, and feel that they are cancerous tumors that hinder face-to-face communication between people.

I have to say that this protest is really far-sighted.

But in the moment, Sabatino calls it just looking for trouble, and he doesn't want to talk to them at all.

In the United States, where freedom of speech and protests are everywhere, some media once joked that if there is no banner protesting at the door of any large enterprise, it cannot be regarded as a large enterprise that is really playing monopoly and oligarchy.

William shouldn't have known this, unless...

Sabatino's death sight shot back and forth several times at the co-pilot's special assistant. He and the driver came to pick up the Sabatino brothers back to the manor.The other party was sitting upright, pretending that he didn't hear anything, and didn't even dare to turn his head.

"Don't look at him like that, I asked him to tell me. I don't want you to forget the really important things because you have to take care of me. I'm not the type who thinks that parents work hard to support their families, or they deliberately neglect themselves. I'm not that greedy, I don't know how to be grateful." If you give up, you will get something. If you want to live a rich material life, you must lose something else.

William felt that he would definitely become a busy man like Sabatino in the future, so he was able to understand him from a different perspective.

So, the next day, Sabatino went to the branch office according to the schedule.

William went to MGM.He didn't rush back to New York, instead he asked Wendy to bring the blood-red fine-cut copy, took the next day's plane, and rushed back to Los Angeles as soon as possible.

William is going to organize Samuel and several MGM executives to have an extremely small mini movie viewing first.

This is the wisdom from Wheeler at the dinner table last night. No matter how shitty the opinions of the high-level executives are, in order to show the most basic respect for the company and to ease the relationship with the distribution company, the high-level film viewing meeting is an indispensable part. , and it is the kind that needs to be divided into steps and performed several times.

Even if William himself is from the top management of MGM, he still has to continue to organize.

"Always do some face-saving, kid, believe me, high-level executives with a bit of IQ generally don't give much advice on changes, because it's meaningless. If someone really does, well, with a person without IQ Man, what else is there to talk about?"

To put it simply, I respect you, so I invite you to watch the film show. As for your ignorant opinion... Hold on.

"A team can only have one voice, and so does a movie."

In group projects, cooperation is very important, but what is more important is to have a leader who is strong enough not to be disturbed by foreign objects.Otherwise, whoever has an idea A today, and whoever has an idea B tomorrow, will change the order day and night, and his thoughts will be confused.

High-level opinions, just listen to them, don't worry about them.

But the form of "listening" is still necessary.

William made an analogy and did not let Wendy bring the copy of the final cut, but brought the fine cut that has not yet been dubbed, which is to leave space for the senior management to "comment opinions".As a rookie, he doesn't have Wheeler's confidence to just listen. In order to avoid unnecessary conflicts, such a trick is the best way at present.

After receiving William's invitation, Samuel immediately expressed that he would be happy to go, and reserved the best broadcasting hall in the MGM headquarters for William.

While waiting for Wendy to fly to Los Angeles, William looked at some piles of documents, God knows where the documents needed his signature.

Secretary Jiye saddled William, looking as if he was trying to curry favor with William.After all, not long after Ji Ye became William's secretary, William, the boss, flew away and brought the new Wendy with him, but he didn't bring the real secretary Ji Ye, so he should have expressed it no matter what.No matter who he is.

William looked at Jiye, who had first-class acting skills, and was actually a little disappointed in his heart.

The other party didn't do anything during the month he was not in MGM!God, he meant, could he be a little more worthy of being a spy?How embarrassing is this for him who is already ready for battle in his free time?

William: 【So boring. 】

S: [Why don't you think about a new script? 】

William: [Because Mr. Wheeler is a loyal advocate of "a movie can only have one voice", while he taught me this truth, I feel that he is also telling me tactfully, in the days to come, please listen more Watch more and learn more, then shut up and talk less.I always thought that the director was the tyrant of the crew. ] S: [Wheeler started out as a director. 】

S: [If you are really bored, I recommend you to go to In-N-Out. If you haven’t eaten In-N-Out burgers and French fries, you haven’t lived in California.Wait, the one near MGM is not very good, the one in Santa Monica is the most hygienic, I will send you the address. 】William: 【I don't want to eat junk food! 】

William said so, but in the end he was very honest and took the initiative to go to Santa Monica.Don't ask him why, he will not admit that he was aroused by S's "shakeshack in the east and In-N-Out in the west".

Shakeshack is known as the best burger restaurant in the eastern part of the United States. William ate it once in Manhattan, New York, and was recommended by his cousin.The taste is really convincing, and it is a rare civilian price. At that time, William was quite frightened by his cousin's unknown side.

["In-N-Out" will never let you down, believe me, you will love it. 】S said so.

In-N-Out did not disappoint William, and the effect was even astonishing. William also deliberately brought some takeaways back to the office.

In the afternoon, when Wendy's plane arrived in Los Angeles, William hadn't finished eating his fries.

Wendy said on the phone that she would rush to the company as soon as possible, and the traffic jam in Los Angeles would definitely not trouble her.But William's gentlemanly spirit made him feel that he shouldn't torture and squeeze a lovely lady after a long flight, even if the other party insisted on coming to work.

"I ask you, no, I order you, you must rest this afternoon, come to the company tomorrow, I don't want to hear the answer of rejection."

"Yes, boss."

After the word "order" appeared, Wendy answered yes as if Pavlov had reacted.After hanging up the phone, she slowly raised the corner of her bright lips, and a hot current flowed into her heart.

That night, William suffered from insomnia.He didn't know why, anyway, it wasn't for tomorrow's movie screening.

Just lying in bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep, so William did a "crazy" thing.He got out of bed in the middle of the night and sneaked away the keys to Sabatino's SUV.After driving dozens of kilometers to Santa Monica, he couldn't stop at In-N-Out's French fries.

The fast food restaurant at three or four o'clock in the morning is scary empty. To be precise, In-N-Out is still open at this point, which is quite scary.

William was wearing home clothes inside and a silver-gray coat that might be Sabatino's outside. He sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows in a messy manner, looking at the dark street outside. Except for the street lamps, there were only three or two kittens passing by occasionally. drunk.

"If you cry, I won't laugh at you." A female voice suddenly sounded from opposite William.

The author has something to say: In fact, William has never gotten over the death of his parents, but he has been acting as if he is calm and indifferent.But after his emotions have accumulated to a certain level, he will want to do something to relieve the emotions.

Chapter 19 No. 19 Days Coming to Earth: You stand on the bridge and look at the scenery, and the people watching the scenery look at you upstairs.

William put down the animal-style fries in his hand, raised his head, and looked at the pink wig lady sitting abruptly opposite him.

This uninvited lady wore a bandage dress that couldn't be worn in a nightclub, and then, and then it was gone.

——Even though Los Angeles is a well-known sunny city, there are not many people who dare to wear it in the middle of the night in late winter and early spring.William couldn't help but sigh in his heart, for the sake of beauty, it's really worth it.

However, the paradox is that the other party's face is so heavily made up that it is impossible to recognize her true face.It's strange, isn't it, to be beautiful without being able to recognize who she is?

"That's exactly my purpose," the lady took the initiative to explain, "to prevent people from seeing who I am. It seems that I have succeeded."

"Sorry, I have been living in the UK before, and I don't know much about American celebrities. I don't think I can be your standard of judgment."

"I can hear it." The familiar lady laughed.

If it wasn't just like this face to face, it would be really hard for William to believe that someone could change instantly with a smile, and their temperament could change suddenly.It was an indescribable special technique full of drama, she was still her, but she was not the same as before.

"You look surprised?" she asked.

"At a fast food restaurant in the middle of the night in scantily clad clothes, accosting a casually dressed man? This really surprised me. You know, I have a certain chance of being a perverted killer who still lives in the basement of my parents." William said before I watched a documentary on the BBC, introducing some famous serial murder cases. Coincidentally, many extremely cruel murderers are actually receiving financial assistance from their parents, and they are downright low in life.

"If I'd seen you at the Spago last night, and you were squatting down patiently trying to cheer a little girl up, the odds would have been lowered a lot, right?"

"You are?" William was taken aback, he regretted that he didn't put on his purple sunglasses when he went out.

"Forgive me for not introducing myself first, my name is Sally Field, an American whose name you may never have heard."

"William Theros, an Englishman who must have heard your name, but your disguise was really successful, so I didn't recognize it. How could I not know you? You are destined to be an Oscar winner in April this year."

"Oh, please, don't even say that to you, I'm not even sure whether I can be shortlisted." Field held his head in frustration, looking exhausted.Her mother is a very famous actor in Hollywood, as is her stepfather. As the second generation of stars, Field’s pressure has been incredible since her debut, especially when she is only 5 feet (about 1 meters) and looks ordinary.

As Oscar is getting closer, she urgently needs a channel to relieve stress.

"It's not a safe outlet." William didn't agree with Field's eccentricity, "Maybe you can try to work out in the gym, or play games on the computer, or do nothing at all, trust me, you will win. "

There was no basis for what William said. He just wanted to comfort Field. She looked really bad.

"Do you treat all women like this?" Field asked William an irrelevant topic with a pale face.

"Huh?" William shook his head with a light smile after a brief moment of astonishment, "Not everyone, but only those I admire."

"God! If I was ten years younger, I would definitely pounce on you and kiss you, I swear." The 34-year-old Field has never hated his age so much.

"If you are ten years younger, it will be my turn to break the law."

"...Although I know that you are just talking nonsense with your eyes open, I am still very happy. The British gentleman is really extraordinary, huh?" Field returned to the original topic, "I want you to know that the American The lady is also very understanding, I promise, if you cry in front of me, I will never go to the paparazzi to break the news that the cousin of the founder of Microsoft is a crybaby."

"I didn't want to cry." Even if there was a moment of sadness, it was blown away by Field's sudden insertion.

"OK, you didn't want to cry, the corners of your eyes just happened to be red."

"Yes, that's it. The onions in the hamburger got on my hands, and I accidentally rubbed my eyes with my hands." William is a person who is very good at comforting himself.

"A beauty is a beauty, you are almost making people want to commit a crime, sweetheart." Field pretended to be frivolous and raised William's chin with his index finger, "I think you should be more concerned about me than worrying about me wandering outside at night. Worry about yourself. California is gay heaven, oh sorry, I should have asked you first, do you know what being gay is, boy?"

"I think I know." After all, William is from the big rot country. He was actually surprised that the earth is so backward that it still rejects same-sex love. On star β, even if you want to marry a light brain, no one stops you. "I don't ask why you insist on chatting with me here to pass the time; don't you continue to worry about why the corners of my eyes are red, okay?"

"Sounds like a good idea."

Then they sat together at the In-N-Out, sharing plates of animal fries until Field's agent drove to pick her up.

"The next time you do something as stupid as a guy sneaking off to a bar and then locking your car keys in the car and locking yourself out, please don't contact me and fire me, please. "

William was forced to hear all this on the side, neither walking nor sitting, which was very embarrassing.

Field is generous and doesn't mind sharing her night's experience with her fries partner at all: "Now that the case is solved, you know why I have to gossip with you."

"Happy to serve the beautiful lady at any time." William stood up with a smile, and thoughtfully put his long coat on Field who was still sitting, with a trace of residual body temperature and cologne smell, "I'm sorry I misunderstood you for Demeanor is not temperature, I think you need it more than I do."

Field was taken aback, then raised his head: "Did you find out?"

William tilted his head, looking confused, what did he find?

Field smiled and shook his head, without further explanation, whether William found out or not, she would accept his love.

After William left the restaurant and sprinted to the black SUV in the open parking lot, the agent finally handed Field the one thing that really set him off — a hygiene stick.

"This is definitely the last time I'll deliver this to you in the middle of the night! You know the way the convenience store clerk looks at me like I'm looking at a pervert?!"

"Thank you for sharing, it was a very interesting experience." Ms. Field said.

"..."

Before William left the manor, the entire main building complex was pitch black, and when he came back again...the place was brightly lit.

"Sorry for waking you up." Facing a group of male and female servants of various races who were awakened from their sleep, William was a little embarrassed, and more importantly, he was lucky, "Is Saba awake?" ?”

The head chef, who has a good relationship with William, gestured to William with his eyes, and Sabatino, who was always formally behind him, also looked like he had just returned home.

"You won't..." William raised an unreliable guess.

"Your vigilance is too poor."

Guesses come true.Sabatino drove with William all the way.

"There will be no next time, honey. If you go out late at night alone again, I will arrange for Shirley and the others to fly to Los Angeles and follow you 24/7, including going to the bathroom. You can try to see if I am joking."

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to cause trouble for you." William lowered his head obediently, admitting his mistake very well.

"Trouble is never on my mind, do you understand? I am willing to help you clean up any trouble," Sabatino sighed, and softened his attitude unexpectedly, "We are a family, I just I'm afraid that something will happen to you."

It's too foul for Saba to say that.William thought to himself.

Then, William willingly signed several unfree personal contracts with Sabatino, like promising that if he wants to go out in the middle of the night in the future, he will definitely bring the bodyguards in the manor, or Saba himself.

What the hell is this last one? !

Until he went to bed again, William was still thinking about this matter, what's the use of bringing Saba?Obviously, he is more likely to induce people to commit crimes than him, the kind of crime of kidnapping and assassination, not other crimes.

I don't know if he was thinking too much, but in the next few hours, William kept having dreams about Sabatino.With a stern appearance, outstanding achievements, a strong aura, and an unbelievably gentle contrast.His cousin is an enigma, he wants to know him, to be close to him, to...

Because they are family, right?

Humans have weaknesses, and aliens are no exception. William's shortcomings are particularly obvious-he can't stand being treated nicely by others, and once he finds out who treats him nicely, he can't help but fight back ten times and a hundred times. Scared my cousin's QAQ

Chapter 20 No. 20 Days to Earth: Even a good morning kiss is stingy, so what kind of family is that?Mrs. Mary said so.

Sabatino didn't fall asleep that night, he stayed awake all the time, sitting on the retro leather armchair, facing the view of the back garden outside the window alone until dawn.

A good Cuban cigar was lit, and Sabatino refrained from smoking it, but emptied his mind in the smoke.His brain became very dull, and after thinking hard for a long time, he still couldn't fully recall the scene when he heard William say "We are a family" to him for the last time in his previous life.

That night was like a distinct timeline.

On the left side of the timeline, there is a sweet and sad past, and Sabatino is a barely tolerable stranger in William's eyes; on the right side of the timeline, there is an infinitely extending future, and Sabatino has become William's new family.

Every morning, William has the habit of running on time. He loves his earth body very much, because earth people are too fragile.After the workout, William would greet every servant and bodyguard he met with a smile.

“Good morning~”

This morning, everyone felt the difference from William. The greeting was still the same, but the voice was obviously mixed with joy and vitality that was not there before.

Sabatino was waiting at the breakfast table, leafing through the newspaper the butler had ironed.

William's brisk steps soon reached Sabatino's ears, just like the sound of his heartbeat, strong, powerful, and full of rhythm.This is the time Sabatino looks forward to the most every morning since William moved to live with him, which makes the waiting meaningful and full of happiness.

This day is probably destined to be a little different.

William, who took a shower and changed into formal clothes, did not sit directly opposite Sabatino, but approached Sabatino. He was closer than ever. He gave Sabatino a kiss on the cheek with a voice. kind of.

"..." Without exaggeration, everyone present was stunned, including the person involved.

There were three villains arguing in William's heart. The first villain said, look, look, look, I said that Sabatino should not be treated too much as a family member, this is going to cause big trouble!The second villain said that death, death, death is all mother's fault, saying that if you don't give your family a kiss every morning, you are not a family member, and you have developed this bad habit!The last villain said, calm down, calm down, calm down, in short, let's find a time machine first!

Sabatino restarted successfully after three seconds of crash.He got up, lowered his head, and gave William a kiss on the cheek. His attitude was natural, his movements were smooth, and he went with the flow, as if they had kissed each other tacitly for many years.

"Good morning." Sabatino's voice was a little hoarse, with a deep magnetic charm, "my dear."

"Morning." William was out of his mind.

It wasn't until the two of them were seated—this time their seats finally changed from the left and right sides of the long table to the side next to the upper left corner—William returned to normal, and he said to Sabatino: "I let you I bought the In-N-Out breakfast, highly recommend it, it tastes like mom.”

The head chef who was in charge of making breakfast was already crying in the toilet.

Sabatino took a deep look at William, didn't ask any extra questions, just raised his knife and fork to take a bite, and said: "The taste is really good, very nostalgic."

"My mother and aunt use the same cookbook?" William seemed to be able to see stars in his blue eyes, and he became keen on all the evidence that could prove that he and Sabatino were a family.

Sabatino shook his head. "No, my mother never cooks."

"That means you have been in contact with my parents." William finally affirmed that Sabatino was a little too familiar with his parents, and even him, "Why didn't I know you before?"

"Because your mother kept secrets about this, and because you were too young at the time."

"..." William didn't get the causal connection between the two at all, but he decided to try to be more frank with Sabatino, "Next time you don't want to tell me the reason, please answer directly 'I don't want to say' , I won't be angry, and I won't get to the bottom of it, but if you treat me like a child, I promise I will be very angry."

"Got it." Sabatino nodded solemnly.This world is so helpless, when you tell the truth, the other party doesn't believe it.

Sabatino is a person who knows himself very well. When it comes to William, he has no such thing as reason. If he comes into contact with the fragrant and soft William, he has no doubt that he will turn into a beast.In order not to be a beast, Sabatino worked very hard to endure William.

Sabatino is not a good person, but he still has the lower limit of not shooting at children.

When Mr. Special Assistant came to pick up the brothers to MGM, William saw Wendy in the car and found a pair of rimless glasses to wear. She really started to learn from Mr. Special Assistant in all aspects.

I have to say that those glasses made Wendy look a little shrewd.

"Why don't you come in and have some food together?" William warmly invited, "Let's all have breakfast together in the future."

"Thank you, but this doesn't qualify." Wendy and the special assistant said in unison.

Wendy started to look professional in front of William, at least she was trying her best to look professional.In private, she can be very good friends with William, but during working hours, she has to pay attention.This is for the sake of William's image, which can help him establish the majesty of a superior in front of others.Mr. Special Assistant said so.

Sabatino finally began to feel that Miss Wendy was a little more pleasing to the eye.

At [-]:[-] in the morning, the film screening officially started. No one was late. During the nearly two-hour film viewing, the executives gave William great respect. No one spoke, and no one left to answer the phone. .

This mini-screening meeting is really "mini", to the point that only Samuel, Samuel's secretary Greta, and the other two high-level members of Samuel's department are involved.At this time, they are "brainstorming" for "Blood Red Splashing White Gauze", and they are putting forward some "opinions" that William wants them to mention.

Wendy has accomplished what an assistant should do brilliantly, pretending to listen and writing furiously.Smiling makes every senior feel that his opinion is very important and he is very valued.Successfully liberated William, and continued to wander in the sky.

Generally speaking, this is a hello, hello, hello everyone, and the feedback from the high-level executives is very good, and it can even be said to be a surprise.Old Samuel performed particularly well. He is the person who knows the true state before the blood red best. He also knows the little tricks of the producer George. In other words, this month, which can be called a miracle, is really all done by William. , as if by magic, this rich second generation from England is for real!

Everyone gave a lot of opinions, and it can be seen that they really want to do something for this movie, because this is likely to be MGM's most successful low-cost movie in recent years.

"The MPAA classification, I will find a way."

William got the most practical assurance from old Samuel.Perhaps Samuel felt a little sorry for only giving half of the actual investment to the crew. This debt that no one mentioned made Samuel think of making up for it in other ways.

MPAA, the Motion Picture Association of America, will determine the specific rating of a movie when it is released, and the main members of the MPAA committee are composed of the chairman and president of several Hollywood giants.MGM has not been completely kicked out of the circle of top Hollywood giants so far, because its agent has not completely withdrawn from the committee.

Hugo, the CEO hired by Sabatino with a lot of money, is currently holding the title in the MPAA at the same time.It's just that it's no longer the chair that MGM used to always do, and Hugo is being marginalized by several other giants.

Of course, one of the important guarantees in Hugo’s work report to Sabatino is that he will get back MGM’s right to speak in the MPAA as soon as possible.

Old Samuel said that he would think of a way on the MPAA, and now he is definitely not counting on Hugo, but the "old partner" among the other giants who owes him favors.

"Thank you." William smiled sincerely at Samuel.

Sabatino also wanted to attend the screening, but was strongly rejected by William.

"With you here, do they still dare to tell the truth?" William has seen how the MGM executives flattered his cousin. How did Nuo bear all that silently with a paralyzed face.

Sabatino could only stop in William's office regretfully, looking at his watch for a while, and it was twelve o'clock!Why don't you come out? !

William actually came out earlier, but instead of going back to the office, he took Wendy directly to the staff meal.

MGM has canceled in-house staff meals in previous years because the head chef resigned.Now that Sabatino has bought MGM, after a year of brief neglect, the MGM staff restaurant reopened with a new look after the new year.The bright dining environment, the delicious buffet, the price that is completely free to the staff... This alone has earned Sabatino a terrible approval rating.

Even many film stars who rented MGM’s indoor studio for filming have gradually come to eat in the staff restaurant recently——“Being bought by Microsoft’s godfather is definitely the wisest decision ever made by the executives. !"

——"I've heard that Microsoft's benefits are good, but I didn't expect it to be so good!"

When William and Wendy were queuing up to choose meals, they heard two fat male employees next to them say so.

After choosing the food and finally sitting down, Wendy hesitated to speak to William several times.

William was skillfully rolling the spaghetti with a fork, while looking at Wendy: "If you hesitate to tell me something, then please tell me directly, and I will decide whether I should hear it, OK?"

"I know that what I said is a bit like a snitch behind the scenes, but please believe me, I am not that kind of person, I just heard some bad things about you today, I suspect Jiye is..."

Jiye was William's secretary, the spy secretary, and William knew everything when he heard Jiye's name.

"Give [-] points to Wendy. Miss White, because she has sharp eyesight." William's attitude is very relaxed, "Don't worry, I know he has evil intentions since the first day he went to work. So I called you to help." "

"You know? Then why do you..."

"Why do you still keep Jiye? Because without Jiye, there will be Weiye and Liye."

Wendy realized: "When I was not familiar with the process, instead of trading for someone who didn't know the details, it would be better to use Jiye, a known danger, as a shield and let him grow up as a truly reliable person. Boss ,you are great!"

"...You don't have to learn it if my cousin's special assistant is always flattering my brother, really."

Wendy's face was ashamed. She thought of Mr. Special Assistant's words. Let the boss find out that you are flattering. It's definitely not that the boss doesn't like to hear it, but that your cultivation is not good enough.

Secretly clenching her fist, Wendy thought, I will definitely continue to work hard!

William always felt that there was a flame burning behind Wendy.

The author has something to say:

The inspiration comes from a video I saw on Weibo some time ago, roughly speaking, how to complete a work within three seconds.

For example, in "The Legend of Zhen Huan", the emperor saw Zhen Huan for the first time, Zhen Huan slowly raised her head, the emperor looked at it, and said: "It's so fucking ugly, go down."

It’s also like in "Huan Zhu Ge Ge", the little swallow sneaked into the paddock, was shot by the fifth elder brother, and asked the emperor in a dying struggle: "Do you still remember Xia Yuhe by the Daming Lake?" The emperor thought for a moment and said: "... …who?"

Better than in "The Hobbit", Gandalf said: "Go on an adventure with me." The Hobbit said: "No, no, kill me, and I won't go either!"

So... if it is this article:

The examiner asked William delicately: "The question you drew is to go to the earth and become a leader in a certain field. Do you have any objections?"

William: "Yes, the labor-management fucking test is no longer available!"
