[American Entertainment] Dance out of my youth

He was confused. On the one hand, he knew that it was wrong to measure the relationship between the two by the amount of income, but on the other hand, it was impossible for him to completely ignore money.

"You know how I do things. I won't allow things to go wrong before the terms are negotiated and the contract is signed." Grace paid attention to his expression.

"I know." He smiled.

Juliet said that money can best see the true face of a person. If it is only the difference between an annual salary of 5 yuan and an annual salary of 10 yuan, there is not much difference;

She doesn't really know what the life of a real rich person is like, but there is definitely no pressure in a sea view room.As long as you don't live in the wealthy areas of Los Angeles, sea view villas are not very expensive, and you should be able to get them for a few million.

She doesn't care about herself, and it doesn't matter who buys the house, but what about Tom?What would he think?Would he feel— inferiority complex?or something else?But it is impossible for her to say that she has made so much money without telling him.The company is owned by her and her partner, so she can decide not to tell him, but after the signing is finalized, but keep it from him, it definitely won't work.

Tom was indeed a little overwhelmed, inexplicably flustered, and a little upset.He was paid $150 million to make the movie, and had to hang on wires for months, toil and work, while Grace, just typing a few lines of code in front of the computer, could earn ten times more than that .

Well, he knows that knowledge should be more valuable, he has nothing to mind, he should be happy for her.

The economic problems between the two of them were not prominent before, because Grace still belonged to the outreach party and relied on the living expenses provided by her parents. The difference of 10 US dollars for changing apartments was also given to her by the Elliotts.He is the one who is already financially independent between the two, and the one who makes more money, so that in their cohabitation life, he has never had any psychological pressure.Men, just try to make money to support their families, just like Dominic.

but now--

"Money, it's just the numbers in the bank account, I don't feel much." Grace said indifferently, "It's impossible for me to take a few million and cover the whole bed."

Tom pursed his lips and smiled.

"It's time to celebrate and have a party," Harrison said.Tom immediately shared the good news about Grace with his friends.

"Do you want to have a party?" she asked Tom.

Tom pretended to think for a moment. "Of course!"

Harrison raised his hand and gave Tom and Grace a high five: "Yeah!"

The three walked to the parking lot together.

Tom turned on the chattering mode again, saying that the filming in Atlanta will end in two days, and the entire film crew will transfer to New York and Washington DC to shoot exterior scenes, and then go to Berlin, Germany to film exterior scenes for a few days.

Speaking of going to San Diego in July and participating in the San Diego Comic Con to promote the Spider-Man movie being filmed, then of course we must mention the heroine MJ, Zendaya who was born as a Disney child star.Zendaya is of mixed race, tall, long-legged and beautiful. Although she doesn't make many appearances, she is considered one of the heroines.

赞达亚也是1996年出生，比汤姆小3个月，9月1日刚过了20岁生日。

Harrison is one month younger than Tom and was born in July 1.

The three of them are the same age, and they can play together, plus Peter Parker's friend Ned, played by Jacob Batalon, was born on June 96, 6, played by Eugene Flash Thompson Tony Revolori was born on April 6, 96. Many of the protagonists and important supporting roles were born in the same year.

Grace faintly felt that it was impossible to chat with them.

Originally, she was two years older, and with the addition of skipping a grade, she and Tom couldn't be regarded as "same age".

Including the industry gap, she didn't understand more than half of what they said, so that's why it was easier to get along with her peers.

She was a little morose.

In the car, Tom noticed that Grace didn't speak much.

"What's wrong with you? Are you tired?" Thinking of her signing in the morning and flying over in the afternoon, she must be very tired.

"I'm a little tired." She said lightly.

"Harrison, hurry up and find a place to eat, and go back to the hotel after dinner."

Harrison nodded and started the car.

She was not in a good mood, which was still easy to detect, but he didn't know why.He thought about it for a long time and it seemed that he didn't say anything wrong, or was he simply too tired?

He held her hand, raised it to his lips and kissed the back of her hand, then pressed her cheek tightly, and whispered in her ear: "I'm glad you can come."

She smiled.

Harrison looked at the two of them in the rear-view mirror, and felt...something seemed wrong.

Before the meal was finished, the two of them hardly spoke.

There was no quarrel, but Tom felt that no matter how much he tried to find a topic, he couldn't arouse her interest; Grace was so lacking in interest that she didn't even want to deal with it.

Harrison tried his best to activate the atmosphere but failed to save it.Forget it, hurry up and finish the meal, let them go back to the room to settle.

Not happy!Tom is still a little sulky: what's the matter with her?

The two haven't seen each other for 3 months. They thought they would be sweet and sweet when they finally met, but in the end - what went wrong?He couldn't figure it out.

Grace didn't figure it out either, why was she suddenly not interested in anything?Is it because I finally made money that I didn't expect before, or because of something else?

She was very careful about selling the company. She didn't tell Tom or her parents in advance. She didn't call her parents until she signed the contract and reported it.Juliet was surprised, but David thought the price was okay, and they both told her to relax and treat herself.She is still young, she should enjoy life and enjoy all the good things in the world.

But, earning 5000 million all of a sudden, this can be said to be a huge fortune, and she may earn more than this in the future.The contract signed is very good. The company as a whole, including Soda, is owned by Amazon, but it will be independently accounted for, and it will be profitable in three years.

For a young man who has just turned 22, this is already a great success in his career.

So, because she suddenly found that she had achieved her life goal ahead of schedule, she lost her passion for struggle?

What are the billionaires thinking?Silicon Valley is full of invisible rich people. The Internet age has created a new class of technology rich people. It is not uncommon in Silicon Valley to sell a piece of software or program and get paid millions.Have the lives of those people changed dramatically?Or still the same as before?

She was annoyed that she had never noticed anything like this before.

After the signing in the morning, the company partner and the staff opened a few bottles of champagne to celebrate.Susan joked that when Amazon transfers funds to the company account, they will have to bring bodyguards when they go out. All 4 partners are very satisfied with the price of the contract. After the funds arrive in the account, not to mention too much, the per capita net worth is worth tens of millions. At that time, you are no longer an ordinary person, nor a partner of an ordinary small broken company. If there are people, your security protection has to be arranged.

That's the trouble with money.

She wanted to tell Tom about the bodyguard, but now, even that.

Tom seemed to be sulking about something, and had little to say but what was necessary.It wasn't like him, she was a bit upset, she wasn't in the mood to comfort a sulking boy.

Or did she finally realize that she earned more than him?But she doesn't care who earns more and who earns less, maybe only men care about this?

After entering the hotel room, Grace said, "I'll take a shower first." She entered the bathroom first.

Tom flung himself on the sofa sullenly.

Should I talk to her?But where is the problem, how to talk about it, and what to talk about, he has no clue in his mind.

There are a lot of things that happened today, no, actually, there are only two things. The first thing is that she came; the second thing is money.

Money was important, he had known that for a long time.To maintain a family of six, the annual expenses are not small. The four boys go to school and take various extra-school classes, all of which are money.But in their relationship, money is not that important - isn't it important that they fall in love?What does it have to do with money?The amount of money should not be an obstacle between them, but——

He was in a mess, thinking about this for a while, and thinking about that for a while.This issue must be clarified as soon as possible, and money cannot be an obstacle on their road to love.

Grace came out of the bathroom.He was wrapped in a bath towel and was holding a towel in his hand to dry his hair.

He patted the sofa seat and motioned her to sit down.

He took the towel in her hand and dried her hair carefully.

Grace didn't speak, and neither did he.

Her hair was half-dry and messy on the back of her head.

Looking at the length of her hair, she thought it was because he said he liked her long hair, so she kept it long. Thinking about it this way, she really loved him.

Brushing the hair off her shoulders, gently kissing her smooth shoulders, calling her name in a low voice, "Grace, Grace!"

How should I speak?He still hadn't thought of it.

It was Grace who spoke first: "Tom, are you unhappy about money?"

"of course not."

"Then why-"

"You don't seem to be in a good mood. I don't want to talk too much to upset you. You—" He frowned, deeply troubled by his clumsiness, "I don't really understand, but money seems to have become you and me instead. A kind of obstacle between you. Do you feel the same way? It seems... No matter how hard I try, I can’t catch up with you. This feels bad, very bad, and I don’t like it.”

"Does money measure your worth?"

"Of course. How much salary you get proves your ability recognized by others. Just like an actor, Robert can get tens of millions of dollars because of his box office appeal. This is his value. You are the same, you The company sold 2 million, you can get 5000 million, this is your value, the value of your mind.”

"That's right. Almost everything in the world has its value, it's just the amount. I'm richer than you, will you be troubled by this?"

"A little bit. I would be lying if I said nothing at all. Last year I didn't think I could make a seven-figure salary just by working for a few months. $7 million is huge to me. To the point where I don’t know exactly what to do with that money, let alone 100 million.”

"1000 million is not as much as you think, and you may only be able to buy an apartment in the Upper East Side or Upper West Side of New York."

"Is it an apartment of a few hundred square meters? I really doubt that you have no idea about 100 million or 1000 million."

"I don't have any specific concept, after all, I have never seen so much money before."

He smiled helplessly, "You said, 1000 million or 5000 million are just the numbers on the bank account."

"Numbers that can buy a lot of things."

"Yes." He kissed her shoulder again, "I'm surprised, but you're even more happy."

"Don't men care more about who earns more money?"

"Maybe."

"Do you care too?"

"I care, I care a lot. This may be—" He frowned, "I can't say, I shouldn't worry about money, how much money you have is entirely your own business, in the future... I am a man, I should bear the burden I now have the ability to take on the responsibility of supporting my family, and I am very willing to take on this responsibility."

Grace shrugged her shoulders, apparently holding back a laugh.

He was slightly embarrassed, "Why are you laughing!" He muttered.

"Well, since you mentioned this, then, should we discuss the issue of household use in the future?"

"Huh?" Does this still need to be discussed?He couldn't figure it out.

"We need to unify our understanding first." She half turned around and sat face to face with him. "I see that we've never discussed this: First of all, you think a man is supposed to be the breadwinner, right?"

"uh-huh."

"The scope of raising a family includes but is not limited to daily expenses, and also includes items other than necessary daily expenses, such as cars, yachts-don't say you haven't considered buying a yacht, investing in such things is not within the scope of raising a family."

"almost."

"Okay, let's take a look again. You think you should be responsible for these expenses, and you can indeed afford them now. Have you made up your mind that my company may not be profitable for 10 years?"

"I thought so."

"Oh, you are right, there are many small companies that have been established for several years and have not been able to turn a profit. Since we did not discuss this issue before I sold the company, now you have to think, I have 1000 million, should I change it, I will be responsible for supporting the family."

Tom was stunned. "What?"
