[American Entertainment] Bright life

After Sterling got the "what a hell" mood story, he didn't call his client immediately to ask what happened to the dog, but asked his assistant to give it to Grace. All the materials of the crew who sent the audition invitation were found for him.

After reading the materials of this crew, Sterling didn't care about "WTH". He felt that this was an opportunity not to be missed, for Grace.Not only to hone acting skills, but also to be recognized by awards.

Well, he meant the Academy Awards.

A script that allows Sterling to think about the future so far is naturally unusual. The name of the script is "Suspicion of Child Abuse".

In fact, "Suspected Child Abuse" was very famous long before there was a movie script. For example, "Mamma Mia", which Grace had just finished filming, was born out of a stage play. "Suspected Child Abuse" has The play of the same name continued to be staged on Broadway for a whole year. Not only did the script win the Pulitzer Prize, the highest award in the journalism industry in 2005, but the play also won the Tony Award for Best Play, Best Play, the highest award in the theater industry. Best Director, Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress, nominated for 4 awards and all won.

Grace was invited to audition for the supporting actress who won the Tony Award for Best Supporting Actress in the drama version, Sister James, a pious and simple little nun.

It is worth mentioning that the reason why Grace was recommended by Meryl to the director John Patrick Stanley, who is also the director of the drama version and the writer of the script, is because Meryl will play the heroine in the movie version , Sister Aloysius, a serious, old-fashioned, dogmatic headmaster of a Catholic school.

This is already settled.

Seeing this, Sterling went back to the original point. How did his client with a negative EQ capture Meryl Streep’s heart—it’s not right to say this—or his The aesthetics are broken, can't you appreciate the advantages of Grace?

Thinking this way, Sterling decided to do some testing, so he went to Grace's book fan forum, and saw the hot post on the top of the forum, "Dr. Green returned to Oxford University as a visiting professor, making Cambridge University cry Cambridge town go! "Oh My God!

Sterling covered his forehead in pain and moaned, what happened to the world? !

On the good side, Sterling is no longer obsessed with Grace and Meryl; on the bad side, he's starting to doubt life now, and Grace Green, his client on Mamma Mia, is done filming. After that, during the less than a week in London, he was so restless, wasn't he?

By the way, there is another question, do the students of Oxford University have a masochistic mentality?Or are they willing to do anything as long as they can beat their arch-rival Cambridge University?

Wait, does that post mean that Cambridge University tried to invite Grace too?

After realizing this, Sterling was silent for a while, picked up the phone in his office, and cut the inside line to his assistant: "Book me the fastest ticket to London!"

Once that was done, Sterling began to collect the scripts he had received during this period.

Since Disney's "Enchanted" began to promote, the song "That's How You Know" sung by Grace has been ranked in the top [-] of the Billboard singles chart under the operation of Disney, and the download volume on iTunes is also quite Xiren, and after Grace participated in "Mamma Mia", Sterling received a lot of unsolicited scripts.

Of course, Sterling doesn't like these scripts. After all, Grace is probably invited to play a vase role, otherwise it is a youth idol movie.That was never the route Grace was supposed to go, and Sterling is not short-sighted, well, although he kind of wants to see his clients now, in school romance idol movies like average high school girls and handsome vampires The male students, and Sterling now brought all the scripts that he passed, just to let Grace stop "showing off" everywhere.

Well, Mr. Broker can only think about this kind of expectation.

……

The weather in London in late October is already relatively cool, unlike Los Angeles, which is eight time zones away, the temperature is still pleasant and the sun is shining.

Benedict went to the small bar he used to go to, ordered himself a glass of whiskey first, he was a little nervous now, not that he came to this small bar to wait for the director to audition or something, in fact he came to To meet a friend I haven't seen for a long time, probably.

According to a friend, Benedict looked up again and saw his friend coming in from the door of the bar. Before he could reach out to greet him, the other party stopped at his position after inspecting the bar, and then walked towards the bar. came over.

He didn't need to greet him now, but when his friend approached, Benedict couldn't help asking her, "That's how you came here?" Grace's dress was fine, a gray coat over a white shirt , black slim-leg pants, the trousers were tucked into brown ankle boots, and an orange-red silk scarf was tied outside the coat. In addition, she is still dyed blonde now. The overall dress is very coordinated and outstanding. Street photography is not a problem at all. It's just that she went out so undisguisedly, without even wearing sunglasses.

Grace raised her eyebrows, Benedict took a deep breath, and said this sentence in more detail: "I mean, you know that you are a public figure now-in fact, your popularity in London has not been low recently ——You just went out without concealment? Didn’t the reporter take pictures?”

Grace made a look of sudden realization, a very exaggerated sudden realization, the corners of Benedict's mouth wanted to twitch, and then Grace said, "I did meet one."

Benedict subconsciously continued: "And then?"

Grace blinked and said, "I told him he forgot to turn off the gas in his apartment, and he hurried home."

Benedict: "...you believe him once you say it?"

"Why don't you believe it?" Grace asked solemnly, as if she just said that to a reporter.

Benedict looked at Grace with an innocent face, and rationally told him that this topic could be stopped, so he reached out and beckoned the barman to bring Grace a glass of whiskey.

The bartender was a handsome young man. He brought the whiskey to Grace and said kindly, "Hello beauty, I'll buy you this glass, how about it?"

Benedict was about to say "no" but Grace was half a beat ahead of him and said, "Oh, you're saying hello to me? Well then, you too, and by the way say hello to your girlfriends for me .”

Bartender: "...what?"

Benedict didn't need to ask any more questions, he knew that Grace was right, and when the bar waiter left in a daze, he said with a tangled expression, "You know, don't offend me by serving food to you." Be careful, he spits in your whiskey." More importantly, he is a frequent visitor to this small bar, and he doesn't want to be treated like this.

Grace seemed to see through what he was thinking, and said in a very casual tone: "Don't worry, he's about to be fired."

Benedict: "...how did you come to this conclusion?"

Grace supported her chin with her hand, and glanced at Benedict after hearing this, and her tone became brisk for some reason: "I want to deal with three girlfriends at the same time, and it will consume most of his energy, so that I can't Concentrate on work."

Benedict originally thought that there were only two boats, but he didn't expect it to be three: "Three?"

Grace is happy to explain to Benedict: "Yeah, one of them is freshly painted with black nail polish, one is a nurse I guess, and the last one is a waitress at this bar."

Benedict subconsciously went to look at the male waiter, not to mention the black nail polish and the nurse, he really saw that he was very intimate with a female waiter in the bar, and he was very guarded looking this way.

Benedict didn't know whether to rejoice in his heart or sympathize with him that he was about to be burned, but this didn't seem to be the most important point, the most important thing was, "How did you find out?"

"I didn't look at it, I just observed it." Grace sighed slightly after finishing speaking, and in a blink of an eye she became energetic again, pointing to a man and a woman who looked like a couple sitting not far from the bar, making Benedict Look over, "Do you see anything?"

"A couple on a bar date?"

To Benedict's statement, Grace admired: "Great, what else?"

Benedict felt that he seemed to be inspired, and looked over there uncertainly and said: "If it were me, I would say that the lady is an office white-collar worker, she is still wearing a suit, she should have come from work nearby Bar date with boyfriend. What did I say?"

"Very well, you said it well," Grace's expression was so serious that Benedict almost thought that Grace was complimenting him, if she hadn't said something else, "I mean, you almost All important information was left out."

Benedict: "..." Were you kidding me just now?

Grace didn't look at Benedict's depressed expression anymore, she started to talk about her interpretation: "That man is cheating on his wife, see the ring marks on his hand? Of course, he may have just divorced. But if you notice the shape of the ring in his trouser pocket, you will know that he is not, he is here to have an affair. Judging by the way he talks and laughs like this, he is still a habitual offender."

Benedict strongly disagreed: "Why don't you think that lady is his wife?" After he finished speaking, he felt that he had asked a stupid question. After he took a sip of whiskey, "You have to remind that lady ma'am?"

Grace lost interest in the 'couple' and turned her gaze to the other guests in the bar, responding casually to Benedict's words: "Why?"

Benedict didn't expect Grace to answer like this, he frowned and said, "Of course it's because she was cheated by a married man."

"I do not think so."

Benedict was confused. Earlier, she said that the man was a married man who came to have an affair.

Grace turned her head and smiled innocently at Benedict, but the words that came out of her mouth were not so innocent: "Didn't I tell you, she is a high-class prostitute."

Benedict guessed that the lady was an office white-collar: "What?" The difference between the two is too far, right?

"She is a very discerning high-class prostitute with good observation skills. After evaluating the clothing brands and watch brands of the men present, she chose the current man." Grace's praise this time was sincere. Benedict's head was full of black lines. Why did he propose to invite Grace to a bar for a drink when she returned to London? It must be because of the Atlantic Ocean.

What made Benedict even more depressed was that when they were about to part, Grace put her hands in her coat pockets, tilted her head and said to him, "Nice to meet you, Mr. Cumberbatch."

Benedict had to ask: "You are serious about saying this, right? There is no opposite meaning."

Grace stared at Benedict's face, which looked like the face of her dear second brother Sherlock, and said a word with a delicate expression: "Goldfish."

Benedict thought he didn't hear too well: "Sorry, what?"

"It's nothing, I'm just looking forward to seeing you next time." Grace opened her eyes and said nonsense confidently, her gray-blue eyes were pure and innocent, "And yes, I'm serious, I'm very happy to meet you, you It's my friend, isn't it?"

Benedict felt a little flattered by Grace's words, and finally he could only reply dryly: "I think so." I think he can still get along with Grace happily, "Wait, Grace, what are you doing?"

"Say hello to my driver," Grace said as she walked to a booth away from the bar.

Benedict was still a little unclear, so in the deck over there, hands were raised, and then the owner of the surrendered hands also stood up, and Raymond asked Grace with a flattering face: "Grace, dear Yes, when did you find me? Well, I didn’t ask this question. But before you sentence me, I will ask another question, did you and him fall in love because of play?”

—That's your question, Raymond?
