[American Entertainment] Born to be passionate

"Well, I only reserved two seats at that restaurant, but now there are, uh—six people. Since I made the reservation, of course I will go, then the rest of the seats can only be decided by you." Ai Demondo shrugged his shoulders very naturally, and then he looked at his watch, "There is still half an hour, and I'm already starting to feel hungry, so-quickly end, please?"

Leonardo is the first to stand up for his irresponsible shirk behavior, he is the most unacceptable, God knows how happy he was after receiving that invitation call, especially when the jerk in front of him told him it was When it was just the two of them at dinner, he almost thought his persuasion project would be over before it even started.

"This should be your problem to solve, why leave it to others, it was you who called me baby last night, not them." Leonardo rushed to Edmondo with unbelievable eyes Accusing him, "You have to make a choice and apologize, it's totally rude to ask out a lot of people at the same time, so-"

But at this moment, Fran interrupted Leonardo's lesson to the irresponsible guy.

"I thought you were going to take me to celebrate." He knew how to use his advantage, and deliberately lowered his voice to arouse the other party's pity, "In a while, I will have a custody lawsuit with them, and I think there will be time to celebrate Yes, it's just that what's missed is what's missed, and it can't happen again."

Leonardo looked at the black-haired boy in surprise, not expecting that the other party not only did not stand on the same front as him to accuse Edmundo, but started the competition directly.

"That's not what we just said!" He patted Fran's shoulder in disbelief, "It's not that I want to teach him—"

As a result, Fran patted Leonardo's hand without thinking, "I don't understand what you are talking about." He did not hesitate to distance himself, "I just want to go with Eddie Have dinner and celebrate the upcoming victory."

After speaking, he looked at Edmundo with an expectant smile.

Edmondo: "Then—"

Seeing that Edmondo was about to say Fran's name, Jim Ross couldn't sit still. Leonardo had already robbed him of his attention in the last few days on the set. If another underage seized the opportunity I'm sorry for being an Italian.

"I believe Edmondo called me for the first time last night, and he subconsciously hoped that it was me." He raised his chin to overwhelm the others, "Maybe he was drunk Yeah, but everyone says you only tell the truth when you're drunk, so now it's obvious who owns that other position."

"No, no, I'm pretty sure they all called me last night, when he still had at least half a bottle of rum in the bottle." Keanu immediately denied, "We still have a question about where to eat tonight What was discussed, I said I was going to eat sushi, remember?"

Although Depp next to him was a little out of sorts, he was not too far behind. He leaned into Edmondo's ear and asked him if he wanted to change, for example, to the bar he recommended, which had the best beer and burgers in Los Angeles.

Leonardo: ...

It was clearly agreed that Edmundo would not come down to teach a lesson, but his teammates defected one by one and walked ahead of him, Leonardo was dumbfounded.But soon his brain was filled with disbelief, so he tried his best to push everyone away and squeeze in front of Edmondo.

"I don't care! You told me to go play with me in the babysitter's car on the set after dinner! You can't go back on your word! I even asked a friend to buy a flirting | flirting toy, which cost 4 figures!"

Edmondo: "Oh! Toys!"

Immediately, four pairs of sharp eyes flew towards Leonardo.

"I knew you kid had bad intentions."

"Both to each other, dare you say you didn't ask him about his after-dinner activities or anything?"

Soon a few people quarreled, and Edmondo rolled his eyes, touched his stomach that had been growling many times, and resolutely turned around and took a taxi to the restaurant.

Of course he didn’t go alone, he called—

"That's why you brought me to the couple's restaurant for dinner?" Anderson looked at his long-time friend with disdain, wiped his mouth, and ate another lamb chop, "Thanks, Dudu, you chose this This restaurant is really nice. Of course it would be better if they don't give us weird eyes."

Edmondo shrugged and leaned back on the chair bonelessly: "You're welcome."

As he said, it's impossible for him to overturn the car.

……

The 3-day trial ended without incident. Edmondo won to protect his reputation. The judge ordered the plaintiff Fran's parents to compensate him a total of 2 US dollars for various losses.Originally they had a second chance to appeal, but after the jury and the judge showed the verdict, Fran's mother angrily insulted the judge and was sentenced to 14 days' imprisonment in court, and their appeal request was rejected.

When the people were almost gone, Edmondo looked at the blond man who got up to pack up the documents beside him: "Hey, Mr. Lawyer, how am I doing?"

"Very good." Dimat smiled at him unexpectedly, "You fulfilled my request without making trouble, which is an important factor for the success of the trial."

"Then can I ask for a reward?" Edmundo raised his eyebrows and asked, "To celebrate the victory, Anderson and I prepared a party at my house. Are you coming?"

"I don't have that much time." Dimat refused decisively. He organized the materials and put them in his bag. "Party is fine, don't play too much, you still have work to do."

Edmondo tried not to appear too impatient, and then waved goodbye to the lawyer. Before leaving, he asked for a business card from the lawyer. This request was not too much, and Dimat had no reason to refuse.

Looking at the phone number printed on the business card, he hooked the corner of his mouth.

There are still many opportunities in the future, so don't rush.

After handing over with the videographer, Edmundo left the room with all the court trial videos. When he walked to the hall, Anderson just trotted over from the corridor on the other side. He seemed to have just finished chatting with someone. , besides his own briefcase, he had a blue folder in his hand, and when he ran to Edmondo, he handed over the folder.

"What is this?" Edmundo took the clip in doubt and asked, "What court documents?"

"No, this is a script." Anderson replied calmly, "I just talked to the people from Paramount, it's a very novel crime movie, they want you to direct, and the time is just right, starting preparations in September , it will be over before Christmas, don't you think?"

So still work.

Edmondo shoved the script back into Anderson's hands without even reading it.

"Didn't I say that after the filming of Entanglement, I will take a good rest. I have something new to prepare next year. No matter how novel the crime movie is, I won't be interested in it. Help me push it away." He frowned. Said with a frown.

"Of course I remember you saying that, but Paramount's attitude is very sincere, and I tried to evade it several times without success." The agent explained.

"It's because you are too soft-hearted. If it was me, this script would not appear here at all." Edmondo raised his head unmoved.

"——I promised that Paramount will try its best to convince you, just watch it." Anderson pinched the bridge of his nose with a headache, "By the way, the male lead has been decided, it's Richard Gere, and he also hopes You can join."

"Who?" The name Edmundo sounded familiar. He thought about it, but couldn't get a result, so he asked again, "What has he acted in?"

"Pretty Woman," Anderson replied, "Do you remember it?"

Speaking of this, Edmundo finally has some impressions, Richard Gere participated, Paramount produced, a crime movie, the clues have been combined these days, if he remembers correctly, then this movie should be It was "First Fear" that made Edward Norton famous and won a Golden Globe.

To be honest, this film has nothing to attract him, the plot is not outstanding, it cannot be regarded as a commercial film and it cannot be regarded as a literary film.

But the actor -- I have to say Edward Norton is a lovely guy.

Edmondo licked his dry lower lip: "Leave the script to be determined, Andy."

"Really, you agree?"

"It's all said and yet to be determined." Edmondo waved his hand and replied vaguely, "Go to the party first, and we'll talk about it after I've had enough fun."

……

However, the party has not yet started, and the scandal was exposed first.

After lunch, Edmondo slumped on the sofa holding the remote control to change channels in boredom. The next moment he saw Leonardo's enlarged face, the camera was shaking non-stop, and soon Keanu appeared on the screen There's Jim's face, and the mass of reporters traps them in the middle, with flashes and microphones almost hitting their faces.

After passing the gate of the court in a flash, Edmondo's memory was gradually brought back.Wasn't that the first day of the trial, the day that Edmondo almost overturned his car and finally left everyone to take his agent to dinner.

Soon some reporters on the screen began to ask questions.

[Leo!Tell us why you're here, is it for Edmundo or for Fran?Does this have anything to do with you stopping having girlfriends? 】

[Will you be working with Edmondo on your next film, Johnny?There is also the Viper House. It is said that it is being watched by the police. When are you going to shut it down? 】

[Edward, Edward!I heard that you fell in love with Edmondo who imprisoned you, is it true? 】

【Have you been with Rui Fan recently, Keanu?Why did you show up at Edmondo's trial and Rui Fan wasn't there?What happened between you two? 】

【When do you plan to return to Italy? The reports over there say that you have stayed in the United States for too long and your passport is about to expire. Is it because of Edmondo that you stayed? 】

Seeing the helplessness of several people, Edmondo couldn't help laughing.

But soon he couldn't laugh anymore. The video ended and the scene returned to the studio. The host started the so-called "commentary report", and Edmondo didn't hear any real situation from her mouth.

Edward Furlong became a poor little fellow suffering from Stockholm Syndrome, Leonardo was a knight of justice who fought against Edmundo to save Fron and was about to be instigated by sweet words, and Depp became a Keanu, River and Jim Ross, the villains who collude to control the new generation of Hollywood, were written into a polyamorous relationship by reporters.

And Edmondo is the biggest villain. He is the one who bullies actors by using his identity as a director. He is the one who tricks several people around by relying on his pretty face to deceive feelings. He is still the biggest supplier of contraband in Hollywood.

"That's outrageous, I should have known Hollywood paparazzi were disgusting from this point on."

Edmondo rubbed the sofa cushions to find a more comfortable position, then picked up the remote control to change to a less terrible TV station, but before he could press the button, someone grabbed his wrist suddenly, and he had no time to react. With a strong push, Edmondo sank deeper into the sofa.

"Do you know what is even more outrageous?" The person turned over and pressed on it, then bent down and leaned closer to his ear, "Not only did you not want me to make a movie to pay you back, but you also ruined my contract with Fox , why, Dudu, why can't you - I just want us to be well."

It was only then that Edmondo saw River Phoenix's face clearly, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and gave up his plan to draw a gun from the gap to fight back.

"Oh, it's you, Rui Fan." He greeted the other party relaxedly while maintaining his posture, and even raised his leg to touch the other party's knee affectionately, "Didn't we make it clear about the money, you don't need to pay me back, even if I won't take it if you have it all together. But what's the matter with Fox, don't rely on me for everything."

Perhaps it was because Edmondo's tone was too frivolous that it lacked credibility, Rui Fan's frown showed no signs of loosening.

"I know what's going on, but my dear, Fox's movie is an adaptation of a novel, and they didn't agree with the original author. Do you think this is something I can control?" Edmondo continued, "Please, even if I don't want you to keep working, but since you want to, what can I do? I still have a job, and I won't be watching you all day and night."

What he said was true, but it really made Rui Fan feel uncomfortable.

"No, that's not what I'm talking about." He shook his head, with more strength in his hands, looking into Edmondo's eyes as if he was trying to discern whether he was lying, "It's another project, Cameron's project, I Got the email, but when I went to meet Cameron I was told they were considering me because someone didn't want me to have that opportunity."

Edmundo raised his eyebrows, and began to feel annoyed by the entanglement of the people in front of him.

"I don't have that much ability to stop you from auditioning, and why don't you think about it, they are both Fox's projects, you have to participate in both, it is equivalent to them putting all the chips on you, you are nothing Box office golden boy, of course they don't want you all to leave the country - of course this is just my guess, I don't know what the truth is, why don't you ask Kame - wait?"

Fox's project, Cameron?

Combined together it sounds so familiar.

Just when Edmondo was thinking, Rui Fan seemed to have thought of something, he let go of his wrist and sat on the other side of the sofa, looking at the decorations in the distance.

"—Anyway, do you know what the project is, Rui Fan, maybe I can ask for you." Edmondo lay there looking at the ceiling and asked, "I have a few Fox's in my address book Producers and executives, they must know something."

"It's a romance movie. It's based on the sinking of the Titanic. That's all I know." Rui Fan replied subconsciously, and then he realized that he had deviated from today's focus, so he got up and went to the place above Edmondo's head Kneeling down on the carpet, he turned his eyes to Edmondo who was lying on the sofa. "The project is not the point, the point is your attitude towards me, Dudu. I like and appreciate your taking care of me very much, but we can't go on like this forever, you have to—"

Before he finished speaking, Edmundo sat up suddenly, turned his head and swept Rui Fan's face with an indescribable scrutiny.

"It turned out to be Titanic, God, I can't believe it... Don't get me wrong, it's a good story, but I have to say, if you replace Jack's actor with you, there is always something wrong and weird." Sighing and shaking his head slightly, he seemed to be caught in some kind of memory, "Maybe I have seen it too many times before, and that face has already been engraved in my mind."

Rui Fan didn't understand what Edmondo was talking about, but he could always tell that the other party was denying him, but the project was still in the preparatory stage, and the director hadn't even finished the final version of the script, and Edmondo Doubts have already begun.Rui Fan felt that he had been insulted, and Edmondo didn't care about his feelings or what he said, which made his anger well up all at once.

"Look at me! I want you to take a good look at me—" Then he rushed over, "Is it only in your way that you can make you value me!"

This time Edmondo was prepared, and he didn't let the other party easily suppress him, and the two wrestled on the sofa.

"What the hell are you going to do!" Edmundo shouted irritably, "The rebellion period has been postponed or something, first you questioned that I don't value you and moved out of my house, and then you still want to work on your own You don’t need to pay back the money, and today I came to say a bunch of inexplicable things for no reason. I was just in the mood to win the lawsuit, but you ruined everything!”

The poor sofa was about to fall apart. The positions of the two kept shifting, the center of gravity shifted, and then the backrest finally couldn't support it and fell backwards. The two rolled to the ground together with the sofa. Edmondo knew how to use force, so After the inertia ended, Rui Fan was successfully suppressed on the carpet.

"Speak! Silly bird!" He grabbed Rui Fan's collar, "I'm looking at you, what do you want!"

Coincidentally, the gun that was hidden in the crack of the sofa fell out and landed right next to Rui Fan's ear, and Edmundo picked it up.

He swears that it was just a subconscious action, and maybe there was some weird worry, such as fear that Rui Fan would struggle left and right and hit the gun and cause it to go off, but he always picked up the gun, and Rui Fan turned his sideways face to the right. Come over, the next moment he opened his eyes wide in disbelief, and Edmondo could clearly see the fear in the opponent's eyes.

He regretted it.

This gun shouldn't be here, he should put it in a safe and lock it with a complicated combination.

But what has happened cannot be changed.

"Dudu, you—" Rui Fan's lips began to tremble, and he completely let go of his strength, "What are you going to do next, point a gun at me and shoot at me? (shootme)"

Edmund shuddered a bit, then dropped the gun.

The gun landed on the slick floor beyond the carpet and slid some distance before landing at a man's feet.

"Huh? What is this?"

A slightly hoarse boy's voice reached their ears, Edmondo and Rui Fan turned their heads at the same time, Leonardo was standing there, holding a bouquet of fiery red roses in his arms, his eyes warmed to the gun on the ground and the posture in front of him |Ambiguous but obviously looking at the two people in conflict.

"Aren't I here at the wrong time?"

The atmosphere fell into a strange stalemate.
