[Comprehensive] The family has waste wood and is beginning to grow

Venice, Sara Grande Center—

"Laura, are you ready? We are about to enter the venue."

Knocked on the door of the dressing room, and after getting the answer, Ogata Qiwen walked in.

Laura, who had already taken care of herself with the help of the stylist, stood up and nodded, "Well, I'm fine here, anytime."

Knowing that she should enter the working state at this moment, Laura also put away her mind on that man, muted the phone and put it in her handbag tonight.

Ogata Qiwen's suits and dresses today are mainly white, and some details on the clothes are also decorated with unique patterns.As a female companion who is going to walk the red carpet together, Laura also wore a matching white evening dress tonight.

"Laura, are you... are you waiting for something?" Ogata Keifen asked a little uneasy after noticing Laura's expression when he entered the room.

"No." Laura shrugged her shoulders pretending to be relaxed, and then smiled: "Would you like to be so sharp, director. Well, I am indeed waiting... Waiting for our crew to sweep the entire awards ceremony tonight."

Without pointing out Laura's reserved and concealed words, Ogata Qiwen just said thoughtfully: "Don't put too much pressure on yourself, the value of our film lies there, and the awards are just icing on the cake... Everyone in the crew is already very successful. Alright. Well, it's almost time, let's go."

"it is good."

……

On the way to the port of Mestre——

Enzo, who drove the car to the highest speed, drove the car on the highway, kept looking at the time displayed on the wrist watch, and the pointer moved forward bit by bit, which deepened his anxiety .

When he got off the plane at Venice Marco Polo International Airport and received an urgent message from Iemitsu Sawada, he hesitated for a moment, facing the choice between the two.

In the end, he chose to go to the port of Mestre.

He obviously promised her, he obviously didn't want to let her down, he obviously wanted to make her happier...but in the end he still made such a decision.

Now, at the Venice Film Festival, the red carpet show should have already started. No matter how fast he handles it, it may still be difficult to make it before the end of the whole party there.

Just when I was feeling extremely anxious, the phone rang again.

"Hey, Jiaguang, what's the matter, I'm driving." Enzo asked impatiently, clamping the phone to his left ear and left shoulder.

"I knew you would choose to go to Mestre, I know, tonight is the awards ceremony of the Venice Film Festival, and this year's film festival is very important to Laura... Nana is a fan of Laura, she just told me Been excited about this on the phone."

Knowing that Enzo would have to choose between two choices, Iemitsu Sawada had no doubt that Enzo would choose to intercept Joseph and the shipment... He knew this man too well, and he knew exactly what was in this man's heart. What matters most, but...

"Enzo, I just called to remind you...Calm down. I know that you have lost your usual calmness in your heart. If there is a leak in your reason, you should understand what kind of situation you will put yourself into. .”

...However, in the past few years, he has also seen the changes in Enzo. Laura and that family have had too much influence on Enzo.

As a bad friend for many years, he is naturally happy for it, and he is also quite relieved to see him becoming more and more like a "normal person".

However, everything has a price, and the price is... Enzo is no longer the Gabriel Ninth Generation who was calm and rational no matter what situation he faced in the past.

"Okay, I see." Enzo responded lightly, understanding what the other party wanted to express.

After hanging up the phone, I didn't intend to let go of the accelerator when I stepped on it to the bottom, but it was indeed a little smoother.

Venice, Sara Grande Center—

As night fell, the annual Venice red carpet has also rolled out.

Under the flashing spotlights of various media, Laura took Kefumi Ogata's arm, and the two walked leisurely on the red carpet, with standard smiles on their faces, allowing the media to shoot.

Although as the protagonist and director of a shortlisted film, it is not a selling point to attend together as each other's male and female companions.However, in view of the special relationship between Laura and Ogata Qiwen in the past, since the two announced their cooperation and the filming started, there have been various topics. Tonight, the media seems to be pushing the topic to a climax.

Reporters with a little qualifications know that on the night of the Venice Film Festival ten years ago, Laura, who won the best actress title, immediately announced her love affair with Kefumi Ogata.

And now Laura has been divorced for more than two years, and has remained single for more than two years.Now that they are cooperating with their first love, ten years later at the Venice Film Festival, if they announce their reunion, it will really be a big talking point.

It is impossible for Laura to guess what the media are thinking. The only thing she can do is not to respond. After all, it is not a wise move for a public figure to offend the media. She understands what it means to be fearful.

After the red carpet passed, they entered the center of Sarah Grande's theater, and the two also walked to their seats and sat down.

Looking around, there are already a lot of guests attending tonight, and everyone is waiting for the opening of the party.

While waiting for other guests to enter the arena and the host to open the curtain tonight, Laura still couldn't help opening her clutch bag to see if there was any movement on the mobile phone inside.

The result is no, no calls.

It's not that she didn't think about calling him, but——

"Don't make it harder for him by disturbing him if you can't help him."

What Anastas had said to her stung her nerves again and again.

She didn't like that woman, very much, but she couldn't deny that what the woman said was right.

If there is really something wrong with him now, all she can help him is "not to get involved".

The only thing she can do now is to trust him and wait for him.

Port of Mestre -

Enzo, who had locked on the target, had already prepared his usual wild horse whip, ready to strike at any time.

Beside him, the consultant outside the door that Iemitsu arranged in advance to meet him asked for instructions: "Sir, there is no mistake, it is that ship... Excuse me, the shipment on the ship is directly together with Joseph and his group. Destroy it completely, or try to keep it as much as possible.”

"Joseph's gang will be killed, but we must find a way to keep the goods intact... After all, they are very valuable." Although this will increase the difficulty, Enzo still decided.

In fact, it's not that he's greedy, it's just that he hopes to leave his son with as small a mess as possible in the future.

The economic and financial problems of the Gabrielone family, due to the loss of power of the leaders of the past three generations, have been ruined by the elders who have real power, and the roots of the Gabrielone family are about to be hollowed out by them.

Even if he can completely wipe out these moths by himself now and return the power of the family to the leader, what is left to him is a devastated situation waiting to be rebuilt.

No, to be precise, it's not for him, but for Dino... After all, he really doesn't know how long he can last with this body.

He once talked with Libun about Dino, and his philosophy is completely different from Libun's.

He wanted to leave Dino with a slightly better mess as much as possible, just like the current situation, and try to help him make up for the financial shortfall as much as possible.

On the other hand, Li Baoen tended to teach Dino how to solve these financial problems no matter how difficult or severe it was. This was the long-term solution. After all, no one could always help Dino by his side.

How could he not understand these reasons? If he were to be an objective bystander, he would definitely choose to do so.But... he is still a father after all.Isn't that what parents are all about? They can't wait to remove all obstacles for their children so that they can live happily.

Facing his son, he couldn't be cruel after all.So he also jokingly mentioned to Li Baoen that if one day he really fails, let Li Baoen be Dino's teacher and continue to fulfill the responsibilities of a father for him, but it will be a... Sparta's dad.

"Okay, you guys are ready too, it's time to start..." Enzo reminded the helpers around to be more vigilant.

At this time, Joseph who had been hiding in the cabin on the ship suddenly boarded the deck, turned his head and looked at Enzo in the distance for an instant in the night.

And Enzo's eyes seemed to be poisoned, with a touch of strangeness and cruelty.

Uncle Joseph, the person in charge of foreign affairs who watched him grow up, everything should come to an end...

……

Venice, Sara Grande Center—

After the host's opening speech, the awards were announced one by one and the winners gave speeches on stage.

Laura has always maintained an elegant posture on the surface, and will not let the media take pictures of her disrespect, but in fact, she is completely in a trance and suddenly, even a little absent-minded.

The awards were awarded one by one, and finally...

"The best actress award at this year's Venice Film Festival is—"

With much attention and anticipation, the shortlisted actresses couldn't hide their nervousness.But Laura, who is one of them, is still a little numb.

It's not that I don't want it, it's just that... I can't get excited for some reason.

He lowered his head and looked at the phone in his clutch, but there was still no call.
