[US Entertainment] Wild Child

He just laughed, "Do you really want it?"

"No, I don't want to see your bill."

He sighed: "I always feel that something is wrong with you."

She wondered: "Is there?"

"Yes. There's something wrong with you." He pushed her down on the bed and scratched her waist. "You don't like going out to play very much, and you're always bored at home."

She laughed and rolled around, "You, you go out and play by yourself."

"I'm hanging out by myself? That's no fun! You know those girls always follow us."

"No wonder! If you don't want to find any girls, they won't talk to you." She was a little curious, "What's that like? I mean, surrounded by a lot of beautiful girls."

He was a little uncomfortable, but replied: "Just... that's it, you know, some for 'play' and some for other things."

"for example?"

"For example, when you go to a hotel to open a room, wine and food, etc., of course we pay the bill." He said a little vaguely, "and...others."

"Give money? If you give money, wouldn't it become a sex transaction?"

He glanced at her, "No money."

"I don't really understand what they think." She pondered for a while, "Is it true that if there is no job, the new couple will have a hard time?"

"Of course." Leonardo thought to himself that she had never worried about money or work, so she couldn't understand how difficult it is for a girl from out of town to enter Hollywood, earning living expenses while doing odd jobs and auditioning It is normal for the vast majority of newcomers. If you are lucky, you will be able to find a job in a half-year. If you are unlucky, you must rack your brains to find a job. Be known immediately.Hollywood is afraid that no one will know who you are. As for what you have done to become famous, no one cares.

There are also girls who don't get a job, but get addicted to drugs, and it's basically over, there's no hope.The drug epidemic in Hollywood is everywhere, but a new guy on drugs, no one wants.

Fortunately, Suzanne has been very carefully and strictly restrained by Suzanne. She herself is not interested in these indulgent temptations. She has never rebelled in the second class. She has never felt that the work pressure of Disney Channel is huge. After becoming an Oscar starlet, she is also very self-disciplined. .Most of the child stars who fell into shooting stars after falling down are due to family reasons, lack of strong and responsible guardians, facing the pressure and Hollywood's luxury and wealth, and countless temptations, they are powerless to resist, so they are silent, and some die prematurely, leaving only regrets.

He is very proud of his strong self-control ability. Playing for fun, work is the first priority. He used to drink a lot. Now that Sam has become one of the most important people in his life, he consciously drinks less. Drink a few more drinks when you go out to play, and pretend that you are not a big drinker when you are with Summer, and only have a drink before going to bed.

Summer thinks that he is mostly a man's show-off mentality. After all, he is quite proud of being surrounded by young and beautiful girls, as if "possessing" high-quality resources of the opposite sex, which can satisfy his male vanity, but those are just illusions , I don’t know if he can fully understand.

Hollywood is very complicated, because of the huge temptation of "overnight success", countless fresh and beautiful young men and women devote themselves to it every year, but after all, only a few succeed.Opportunities are rare. If you can see the opportunity, you must also be able to seize the opportunity. If you take a wrong step, you may fall.

Elijah Wood said that the incidents of abuse of child actors he has encountered or heard about are not necessarily sexual abuse, but may also be physical or psychological abuse. Even vulnerable adults in Hollywood can't stand it, let alone Not to mention children who have no self-protection ability. The reason why many child actors leave the film and television industry as adults is also because they feel sick and uncomfortable with the filth here.

Summer is one of the few child actors who have hardly been exposed to this kind of thing. In fact, it is not uncommon. For example, some producers will yell and insult young actors who play tricks - after all, some children are indeed too young and too bear children. ——It is impossible for every child’s guardian to be present at the filming scene. Only a leading actor like her has this kind of treatment, so Summer was frightened at the time. Susanna was very displeased and almost quarreled with the producer.

She also thought, what would it be like if Dennis hadn't worked hard to make money and the Brooke family needed her to support the family?Suzanne may hold back her anger and try to let her take on more jobs, just like some child stars do, then she may really choose to throw herself into the arms of drugs because of the huge pressure of work and making money—the little princess of the Barrymore family Isn't that what it is?She is still a descendant of an acting family, and she is under a lot of pressure, let alone other child stars.

So everyone's experience is different.Those girls who hang out in nightclubs and drinks and want to become actors can only rely on their own talents to strive for success, but she already has a reputation and status that many, many such girls envy and hate.

Now, she also has the status of "the fiancée of the heartthrob" who makes countless women envy and hate.

The engagement party had already been held, and they had dinner with the Brookers, George, and Ilmelin one day before New Years, and at noon the next day with George, now wife Peggy Farrar, and stepson Adam. Had lunch together.

George is a good friend of some representatives of the "Beat Generation", such as the modern poet Irving Allen Ginsberg, a cartoonist who has published his own comic stories, and also published some underground poetry collections and underground avant-garde comics , can be regarded as a maverick art dealer, but these arts are obviously not very profitable. During Leonardo's childhood, his financial situation was not very good, and he could not provide his son with a better quality of life.

Leonard had a good relationship with his stepbrother when he was young. The two boys were 3 years apart and grew up together. Adam has filmed some commercials and TV series, but he is no longer an actor.He is 27 years old and has a girlfriend, but they always quarrel.He was a serious alcoholic and drug addict. Leonardo complained several times that Adam asked him to borrow money and refused to repay it, but each time the amount was not large, only a few hundred dollars. Peggy and George tried to send Adam to a rehab center. He came out after the break, and he relapsed a few months later.

Summer also met Adam when he was a child, but Adam didn't like to play with these brats, so he didn't see much.Leonardo said that his stepbrother had poor self-control and asked her to avoid him as much as possible.

Adam actually took this lunch date quite seriously. He brought his girlfriend along, and he didn't look like he was drinking too much. He was a little restless, and nothing happened.

Generally speaking, life after the engagement is not much different from before the engagement, except for being chased by the paparazzi, but before they were the paparazzi's favorite Hollywood couple, there is no difference.

As for the issue of going out to play, now Leonardo always takes her out to play, saying that if she always stays at home, she might grow grass.Especially since he will soon be going to Thailand for 3 months, and she can't be with him from beginning to end, he always feels a little inexplicably anxious inside, wondering what's wrong.

The early crew of "The Beach" went to Thailand after Christmas. They had to cut down the original trees on the beach of the location, cleared enough beaches, and planted new trees in suitable locations.The shooting schedule starts from the second week of January and ends in the third week of April. Columbia University has a one-week spring break in March. Summer has agreed to go to Thailand to visit the filming location during the spring break.

He likes to hang out with friends and hang out, and he especially loves to be lively. The more people there are, the more lively he is, so every time he goes to a party, he always cheers and invites a lot of people. The friends are also divided into the inner circle and those who can play from childhood to adulthood. An outer circle that hangs out together but is not very intimate.In the past, because she was underage, Summer seldom went out to play with them; after the age of 16, she still only played with the inner circle of friends who had known since childhood, but this did not prevent her from becoming the gay friends of her fiancé The one that is taken care of.

Leonardo is the biggest star among them, the most famous and beautiful, everyone pampers him, even Lucas and Toby who are younger than him mostly let him, not to mention other People, many of them are sycophants, coaxing him to be flattered and self-inflated every day.Summer is his fiancée, so she is automatically classified as a touted and pampered object. Where Leonardo can't think of it, someone will naturally think that they can always take care of them properly, and don't need anything Say more, just help them do a good job.

Summer, a precocious, money-conscious guy, quickly discovered that the price of being pampered by his friends was that Leonardo was often the one paying the bills.

It's not surprising when you think about it. He was born in a poor family, and now he is considered a rich man, and it is normal to spend money generously.His money concept is not very strong, but his investment concept is not bad, and the large sum of money is handed over to the investment manager introduced to him by Dennis.After a movie is released, the huge income is naturally box office dividends. After the DVD is released, there will be dividends from audio-visual products. It mainly depends on how the salary contract was negotiated at that time.Previously, most of his films were niche, and the follow-up income was not high, but even the follow-up income from "Titanic" was enough to cover his daily expenses, and there was no pressure to spend time and drink.

Summer is also not stingy, and when it is time to spend money, he spends money in a good-looking manner.

Her tuition was paid by the college fund that Suzanne had saved since she was a child. Most of her income after becoming a Disney child star was saved. It was she who decided to use her film salary savings when she bought the Malibu villa. The low-interest loan obtained from the bank is less than 200 million, and now it has appreciated by at least 10%. It is a very cost-effective investment for self-occupation or selling for cash in the future.

Housing prices in the United States are not high now. In addition to putting her income in Dennis’s investment company and private equity funds, she also bought some investment real estate, mainly in some economically better cities and communities in Los Angeles County, Pasadena, San Mo There are villas and high-end apartments in Nika, Malibu, Silver Lake and other places.Dennis asked her if she wanted to buy a townhouse in Manhattan enough for a family of four or a high-end apartment with a large area. She was also ready to find a real estate agent to find a suitable property after returning to New York.

The author has something to say: Ah!Why would anyone think it's over?Being engaged but not married yet, being engaged doesn't mean that you won't be tossing each other, there are still a lot of things that need to be worked out, okay?You can toss without breaking up! The 200 chapters are actually only 60 words, not too many, I plan to write about 300 chapters.

The previous "Goddess Meng Yue" was selected as the 2018 year-end inventory work of Derivative Channel, and got a small gold medal.This was originally a strong promotion on the derivative channel in January. With a small gold medal that was strongly promoted, I hope that there will be another small gold medal for year-end inventory next year. It looks cool.
