[American Entertainment] Bright life

Facts have proved that Sterling's worries about his client, Grace Green, will be unforeseen and accidental in the process of buying a house, because Grace None of them went to see the house in person.

Yes, she didn't go in person.

From the very beginning, Grace didn't plan to go in person. She didn't have much idea about food, clothing, housing and transportation. Since no matter in her previous life, her clothing, food, housing and transportation had a controlling madman. Cross it out. Mycroft, known as the 'British Government', controls and provides, and in this life, there is still a big capitalist brother who controls the madman by his side.

Also, just when Sterling thought it was time for them to go, Grace's cell phone rang.

After Grace finished answering the phone, Sterling really couldn't hold back and asked, "Who called you, asked you to answer the phone and mentioned the agreement we signed at the end?"

"Professor George Williams."

Sterling simply punched nothing, he didn't even know who this was, okay?

Before Grace could finish her sentence, "He invited me to be a visiting professor at USC."

Sterling: "...Visiting professor? Wait, leaving aside the visiting professor thing, did you actually teach at Oxford? I mean as a lecturer? No, I don't need you The answer, I think what I hear from you is always quite different from the facts that ordinary people think. I'd better go and listen to what your former students said. However, I really have a question I want you to answer : Is Professor Williams crazy?"

Sterling, who was quick-tongued for a while, didn't regret it at the time, so he didn't say anything. Anyway, he regretted it very much now, and holding a laptop with a video on, watching houses with real estate agents in Beverly Hills, it's just stupid Couldn't be more stupid.

It can only be said that Sterling is still too naive to think so, but when meeting with the real estate agent, Grace pointed out through the computer screen that he has a slight obsessive-compulsive disorder, and Sterling must have a common language. Didn't you give Mr. Broker some inspiration?

Fortunately, Sterling still had the chance to see—

"interesting."

"What!" Sterling asked as much as possible to keep the muscles of his face not so distorted. They have now seen the third building, and Sterling recalled that it seemed that the real estate agent showed him the house according to the location of the house. Yes, but that's not the point, the point is that if Grace doesn't decide, he won't be able to lift his arm!

The real estate agent is much better than Sterling, the agent of WMA, especially after confirming that the client he received today is buying a property, not just renting it, not to mention that they have moved to In the third villa, they have already come to see the master bedroom, which shows that the other party seems to be quite satisfied with this villa.As for the fact that the client didn't come in person, but also in such a unique way, please, as a real estate agent, he has never seen such a difficult client.Soon, realtors who thought they were seasoned didn't think so, either.

Grace's voice came through the computer: "The previous owner built a back room in the master bedroom, so I figured it was a little less obnoxious for politicians, paranoid."

Sterling: "..."

Real estate agent: "...I can only say that the previous owner was a member of parliament, but believe me, when this villa was first built, the designer didn't design a secret room, and it doesn't look like there is a secret room Bar?"

"Behind the wall facing you," Grace cheered up a little, "the steel reinforcement of the chamber creates excess weight, which causes the surrounding floor to drop slightly, causing a one to five degree incline. Oh, Dre You can test it out of the glass beads in the glass bottle on the bedside table."

Sterling gritted his teeth: "Do you think I have extra hands?"

The real estate agent dubiously did it for him, and they found a secret room about nine square meters behind the wall that Grace mentioned.

The real estate agent and Sterling looked at each other, and Grace spoke again: "I need to correct my original statement. It is the congressman's wife who built the secret room mainly for cheating."

The real estate agent couldn't help but "wow", Sterling squinted over, feeling a little subtle, but he didn't want to know about the marital accident between the congressman and the congressman's wife, so he turned the laptop around and squeezed out a hard smile: " Why don't you tell me about your ideal house, my dear client?"

Grace thought for a while, and said with a light tone and yearning: "HHHolmes' Murder Hotel."

Sterling was silent. Why did he find it so difficult to communicate with his clients?The smile he squeezed out was wider, but it was still mixed with the voice of gnashing of teeth, "Why don't you tell me about the Three H Hotel? I'm so curious!"

Obviously, this is an irony, but Grace, as always, understood it literally, and she explained it happily: HH Holmes's murder hotel refers to Dr. Harry Howard Holmes, a Chicago pharmacist in the late 19th century. Dr. Henry Howard Holmes) was one of the first serial killers discovered after serial killers were recorded in the history of the United States. He built a hotel called "Exposition" in Chicago during the Chicago Columbian Memorial Exposition, and its low rent attracted many Young women moved in, but the building was full of secret passages and cubicles. By the time these people realized something was wrong, they had already lost their way, and in the end they were trapped in the hotel by Holmes, tortured and brutally killed them.

"...It's not only the murder scene, the execution ground, but also the tomb, isn't it quite interesting?"

Sterling didn't respond yet, mainly because he didn't know how to react, or before he had time to react, the real estate agent let out another "wow", Sterling responded this time, he ruthlessly He gave the real estate agent a hard look.

Real estate agents see the sky and the earth.

Grace suddenly said, "I've decided this is the building."

Sterling raised his tone: "Because he 'wow'?"

Grace rolled her eyes, sighed slightly and corrected: "No, it's because of the lilacs planted in the garden." There were lilacs planted in the garden of the ancestral house, and when she was young, Mycroft taught her to identify lilacs. He also told her the Latin name of lilac, that Sherlock was making trouble not far away with a red beard, and that Mommy likes lilacs, and daddy took care of the lilacs in the garden.

I don’t know if Grace said earlier that her ideal house style is a “side effect” like HHHolmes’ hotel. After she said such a simple reason, not only Sterling began to recall bloody stories related to lilacs, but real estate Even the agent, he was not immediately elated that he had reached such a housing transaction with a transaction amount of tens of millions of dollars, but had the same idea as Sterling.

The real estate agent hesitated and said, "Grimm's Fairy Tales?"

Sterling thought for a while and asked, "Is there anything about lilacs in Grimm's fairy tales?"

At this moment, Grace asked in confusion: "Why do you think of things that are not there?"

Real estate broker:"……"

Sterling: "... Let's diverge our thinking, can't we? Wait, let's not talk about the unique intention of this lilac flower. According to what you said, you saw the lilac flower in the garden of this villa and decided to You're going to buy this villa, aren't you?"

Grace admitted bluntly: "That's right."

"Then why do you make me run up and down this villa with a laptop like a fool? Are you playing with me?" Sterling yelled directly at the computer screen after speaking, It seems that his reaction speed is not slow.

It was his client who answered Mr. Manager, who asked lightly: "Do I have it?" However, on the left side of her face was written 'I am', and on the right side was written 'You come to bite me', and she also came with a gift A smile that couldn't be brighter.

"Grace Green!!!"

In a villa in Beverly Hills covering a total area of ​​about 0.8 acres (about 3237 square meters) and a building area of ​​about 1500 square meters, there was a roar of WMA's agent who had not yet become a wife, but the roar did not It just didn't spread to the neighboring villas.Not only because of the land area, but also because of the lush trees planted around the villa, which are used for sound insulation and isolation from the outside world, such as the trees that the paparazzi are exploring. In addition, the villa closest to this villa is actually still There is a distance, here is not particular about going out and walking a few steps to the neighbor's house.

But speaking of the neighbors, the one ahead of the villa that Grace wants to buy is unoccupied, and the owner of the one below is very clear to the real estate agent. When they passed by to prepare the contract, he mentioned One sentence: "The owner of this villa is Leonardo DiCaprio, but don't worry, even if he has a party in his yard, he won't be disturbed here."

Sterling, it has to be said that he is still like a fool in his own words, holding a laptop computer, with a look of lovelessness on his face-this shows that in the previous Grace VS Sterling match again In the movie, Grace won again - after hearing what the real estate agent said, he reflexively explained like Grace: "Leonardo DiCaprio, a Hollywood A-list actor, is famous for " Titanic, Blood Diamond—”

At this point, he stopped talking when he realized it, and turned his head to ask the real estate agent, "You mean my client's neighbor is Leonardo DiCaprio?"

The real estate agent felt that he understood why Sterling's tone was so weird, and said dryly, "Your client doesn't look like a model, right?" The appearance of the customer is indeed very good-looking, but she can buy a villa in one go, which is obviously not something a model can afford, and Leonardo DiCaprio, everyone knows that he has always loved The blonde model is his girlfriend, and he hasn't changed since he became famous.

Sterling also instantly understood the implication of the real estate agent's words, he made a black line, and didn't say anything more.In fact, what he worried about was never what others would do to Grace, but what Grace would do to others, okay?

……

Although the house was bought, Grace did not move in immediately. After all, the house still needs to be renovated, and these things are still handled by the hard-working broker.

The actors of "Mamma Mia" are in place one after another. In addition to Meryl Streep and Pierce Brosnan, there are also acting actors such as Colin Firth and Christine Baranski.

In addition, "Mamma Mia" tells the story of Sophia, a 20-year-old girl who is about to marry her fiancé Skye. She wants to know who her biological father is, so she peeks at her mother Donna's diary and finds three Dad, the 'suspect', sent invitations to them separately.

Grace plays Sophia in it, and Sophia's fiancé Skye is played by the new generation of British actor Dominic Cooper. One very interesting thing is that Dominic Cooper is still planning to start filming in September The Duchess, playing the lover of Duchess Georgiana.

——"The Duchess" Not long after "Atonement" starring Keira Knightley was selected as the opening ceremony of the Venice Film Festival, there were so many eager to announce that their crew would welcome Keira Knightley as the heroine Come play the legendary British woman Georgiana Cavendish.This movie, which is also adapted from a best-selling book and also involves hot topics such as "love, sex, politics, scandal, wealth, fashion, betrayal, and sexy and bold women", is not low in the UK.

It is only in the UK, and in the world, "Mamma Mia" is more concerned.

Before "Mamma Mia" was set to shoot on August 26, Grace had dyed her hair blonde again, unlike in "Atonement," where Grace also had her hair cut short, this time at a length Just kept it the same, but made the hair wavy.

If Grace with red hair was the glamorous type, then she with blonde hair felt like the most popular school beauty type in school. Of course, the premise of both is that she doesn't speak. Talking will become cold, lonely and indifferent.

Grace tied her blond hair into a ponytail, and her current appearance is six or seven points closer to her previous appearance, and just before she was about to enter the "Mamma Mia" crew, she received a call from Benedict, Grace still Without speaking, Benedict quickly said: "I called you, just to congratulate you on your new movie, from—"

"Director Joe White knew about it."

"Joe White."

The former was said by Benedict, and the latter was said by Grace at the same time. The corners of Benedict's mouth still couldn't help twitching. In fact, he wanted to hang up before making this call to Grace.

To be honest, after his role in the movie "Atonement" ended, he never thought about having any interaction with Grace. After all, in his opinion, Grace's acting in the movie was just a whim, and she would continue to go after the movie. Do you want to be her high IQ genius?

But Benedict never expected that almost a month after the filming of "Atonement", he suddenly received a call from Grace. He still hasn't fully figured out how she got his phone number, anyway. That phone call made him feel confused, and sometimes he later regretted why he didn't reject it.And this "sometimes" is that Grace has never seen him, but she can still tell the truth about what happened around him.

But the strangeness is here, he should have resisted keeping in touch with Grace, but now, he can take the initiative to call Grace.Very big progress, isn't it?

-adulterated 'Lessons of Blood and Tears' progress.

This time, Benedict thought of the popular post on the Grace fan forum about why Grace was able to gain such deep knowledge in anthropology, and couldn't help asking, "Are you Sherlock Holmes?"
