Alexandra Martinis only felt that she had suddenly encountered a love affair in the air.

The eight-hour flight from Milan to New York, except for the initial man who took care of some work, and then came over, the two chatted together, drank and listened to music, she danced to the man, the other party improvised with the guitar, and then enjoyed a hearty lunch, everything was so cozy and warm and natural.

After lunch, we had a little discussion and decided to watch a movie.

Apparently taking into account her language problems, the man carefully chose an Italian film, Fellini's La Dolce Vita.

The splendor and hustle and bustle of going with the flow.

and disillusionment.

At the end of the three-hour film, in the small screening room in the cabin, there were no lights, only the last subtitles shone with some light, and Alessandra, who was next to Simon, leaned into the man's ear and almost bit her ear: "I've always wondered, what did that little girl say in the end?"

Dancing women often lack body curves, but Alexandra is an exception, so stunner that people can't put it down.

Simon put his arm around the woman next to him and said: "I remember a Fellini interview where he explained that the girl meant that she was willing to learn typing from Marcelo, corresponding to the conversation between the two of them in the small restaurant. ”

Alexandra put a small hand on the man's big hand swimming on her body, and shook her head slightly: "I don't understand." ”

Simon asked, "What do you think the movie is about?"

"I just think it's hilarious, probably a critique of the depraved life of high society. ”

Simon shook his head with a smile: "This is a very shallow cognitive model for literature, film and television works to habitually use a class position to analyze. ”

"And what do you think Fellini is talking about?"

"Lost. ”

"Huh?"

"This is my personal understanding, the characters in the film, whether they are the protagonists or supporting characters, and even those ordinary people, they have fallen into a state of lost reincarnation, unable to extricate themselves, and can only cycle their lives day after day, whether they are gorgeous, blind, confused or boring. Or, when you can't hold on, like Marcelo's seemingly perfect family of friends, choose to end themselves. ”

"Sounds so cruel. ”

"Life is inherently cruel, so I remember a poet once saying that we should choose a life and have the courage to stick to it. ”

Alexandra turned her head slightly to look at Simon: "This seems to be a bit contradictory, choosing a life to stick to it, isn't it a cycle of getting lost day after day you just said?"

Of course it is different, this kind of persistence requires a heartfelt love and recognition of life, and you must believe that your life is meaningful, and it is a kind of persistence to move forward, not standing still. The people in the film, they no longer think about these issues, just like Marcelo who failed to hear or pretend not to hear the girl's words at the end of the story, he has given up the struggle and is willing to sink. ”

"Simon, do you think your life has meaning?"

"Nope. ”

Alexandra was surprised: "Huh?"

Simon said: "On a hopelessly long cosmic scale, the life of every person in this world has no meaning. ”

"This, well, I know......" Alessandra finally caught up, raised her hand and gestured slightly, and said: "Last year's "This Man is from Earth", at the end of the heroine said, we were all just a moment. Until now, every time I think about it, it's very emotional, and that's what you're trying to express, right?"

"Yes, we are all just for a moment," Simon slightly curled the corners of his mouth: "This is another realm, when a person knows the cruelest truth of life, and can still persist and love, this is the greatest bravery." ”

"That's who you are, aren't you?"

"No, if this realm is counted as 100 points, I have a maximum of 70 points, and many times I am lost. ”

Alexandra's body rubbed lightly against Simon, and suddenly laughed softly: "You're a trillionaire, the only one in the world, so, these words just now, it sounds like, well......"

Seeing the woman's desire to speak and stopping, Simon knew that she wanted to use words like 'moaning without disease', and probably felt that it was out of place, so he smiled and said: "On a genetic level, because of the strong instinct of transmission, human desires are endless and will never be satisfied, and this dissatisfaction often brings pain while driving a person to move forward, and this will not change because a person stands in any position, and neither do I. Therefore, in the face of the cruel truth of life, I am often lost, painful, and still unsatisfied. ”

Alessandra blinked her special crescent eyes, as if to ask Simon what was upset with him.

Simon didn't discuss this philosophy of life with the woman in depth, and instead said, "I'm going to New York soon, tell me about you, what kind of life do you want to live in the future?"

Alexandra's first thought, of course, was to become the top actress in Hollywood, but this question of men seems to contain far more than these, but a larger question about her future life.

What kind of life?

Of course, as I have experienced in the last few hours.

Fulfillment, excellence, luxury.

Then, he will become a first-class star in Hollywood, go in and out of Vanity Fair, and the stars will hold the moon.

Well, and then ......

Seeing that the woman didn't answer for a while, Simon took the initiative to say, "That's it, then you will live in New York, first receive some English classes, and then I will arrange some roles for you on Broadway." ”

A flash of disappointment flashed across Alexandra's expression, which was far from meeting her expectations: "Simon, I want to go to Los Angeles with you, is that okay?"

Simon understood Alessandra's intentions, raised his hand and slid over the contours of the woman's delicate face, and said: "The road is to be taken step by step, the literary and artistic atmosphere of European actresses in you is too heavy, if you want to go further in the future, through the performance on Broadway, you can polish that temperament, otherwise you can only be like many European actresses who want to enter Hollywood, such as Adjani, in the end they get nothing." ”

The woman hesitated for a moment, then asked, "How long will this take?"

Although she doesn't want to mention age, age is undoubtedly her biggest shortcoming.

Simon said seriously: "I hope you can do this as a career, and even if you become famous in the future, you can often return to Broadway to perform." You have a very good dancing skills, which is your biggest advantage on Broadway. As for how long it will take to get from Broadway to Hollywood, there's no time limit, and I'll let you try it whenever I think it's right for your role. In fact, I have already considered your positioning, you are suitable for costume movies adapted from famous books, or song and dance films, and I have thought of several projects that are suitable for you, but it will take time. ”

Alessandra's eyes lit up slightly when she heard Simon say this, and she subconsciously asked, "Time?"

"Yes, it's no exaggeration to say that the projects that can make me directly interested in them are all very good, and they can make the participating actors a blockbuster. But this also requires the actor to have a certain amount of accumulation, including acting skills and coffee positions. Otherwise, it would be a disaster for the film to put you in that position, and if the audience doesn't buy it, the same will be true for you, because once these important film projects fail, it will be difficult for you to get a similar opportunity again. ”

These words undoubtedly turned Alexandra's newly rising mood to a low level.

Simon smiled and patted the woman's waist and said, "A little disappointed, right?" Without waiting for the woman to speak, Simon continued: "This is actually my honesty with you, if it were other men, in order to get you, they might make all kinds of rhetorical promises, but I won't." For the women around me, I can promise to give them the best opportunity, but whether they can seize it or not depends on themselves. ”

There was a knock on the door, Simon answered, and a waitress pushed the door open, reminding the plane to land in five minutes.

Simon nodded, waited for the other party to leave, reached out to help the woman pull out the seat belt buckle, and continued the topic just now: "But one thing I can guarantee now, Yalie, in New York, you will have a good life." And you can just enjoy life without following what I just planned, you know, satisfying you is the least of a problem for me. ”

Alessandra watched Simon buckle himself up, and finally spoke again: "Simon, what about the future?"

"In the future, whether it's a month from now, a year from now, or more, if you want to leave, then leave, I've never been a force person. Of course, as long as you're by my side, I'll treat you like my woman. ”

In just one day, Alessandra Martinis's mental journey is probably: dream-reality-dream.

When the Boeing 767 landed at New York's JFK International Airport, the man said he was going to a meeting and was separated from her directly.

Suddenly came to a foreign country, the man she relied on disappeared directly after landing, and the last words on the plane suddenly made Alexandra a little frightened, and even felt that she might have made a ridiculously wrong choice for a while.

When the housekeeper named Angel Davis took over her schedule, she soon returned to her dreams.

Due to the time difference, the departure in Milan was Tuesday morning, and after an eight-hour flight, we arrived in New York, which was still Tuesday morning.

While still in the car, Angel Davis took out some real estate information for her to choose, which will be her future residence in New York. Thick side of the profile, single-family homes on the Upper East Side, penthouses in Midtown, large flat-floor mansions in Greenwich...... The whole nine yards.

The husband's family owns a single-family villa on the banks of the Seine in the West Quarter of Paris, which is already the family's biggest asset.

Now, none of the properties in her possession were any worse than the villas on the banks of the Seine, which her husband often boasted of with the glory of their ancestors, and the man only used them to house his lover.

I chose a four-story villa on 78th Street on the Upper West Side, next to the famous American Museum of Natural History.

The main thing is that the villa is close to the West Side on Broadway.

This is another option for her.

In the end, he still didn't plan to make a pure vase, but followed his advice and decided to start his own business on Broadway.

Then the car drove straight to the Upper West Side.

Speaking of which, Manhattan's single-family villas are not the same as the regular single-family villas that ordinary people understand, this island area where every inch of land is valuable, it is difficult to separate a single-family villa courtyard, so the villas are as close as the books on the bookshelf, but because most of the villas have their own unique style, the height, width and narrowness of the architectural style are different, so it is not a townhouse.

Enter this light gray retro-style single-family villa, the interior is decorated in European style, warm warm yellow tones, and the door is an open hall that rises to the second floor, with gorgeous crystal chandeliers overhead, an open staircase inward, and you can also see the same open living room on the second floor, the third and fourth floors are private spaces, and there is also a basement.

Everything in the villa is very new, there is no sign of occupancy, but there is no sense of dust that has been vacant for a long time, and it is clear that someone has taken care of it on a regular basis.

It's kind of a foothold.

Then it started to get busy again.

Once again, Angel provided a roster of guards, from which she was flattered by the level of the intimate gossip around such a big man as Simon Westeros, and then the selection of vehicles, and the most tedious and exciting purchase of various daily service bags and shoes.

Throughout the afternoon, accompanied by Angel Davis and two personal servants, I walked around most of Manhattan.

At first, she couldn't let go, until Angel broke it, and she had $1 million to install it.

$1,000,000!

The first thought is can I cash out?

Then she secretly scolded herself for being very unproductive, and in the end she didn't know how much she spent in the afternoon, anyway, she returned to her residence on 78th Street on the Upper West Side again, and various specialty stores sent her shopping results, and the cloakroom next to the master bedroom on the fourth floor of the villa was immediately filled with most of it.

In the evening, one of the WMA agents came to the door.

WMA, of course it does.

The largest Hollywood talent agency in the United States.

The person who came was a very capable middle-aged woman named Brigitte Motz, and Angel said that if she was satisfied, she would be her agent in the future, and then he would take her to a party in the New York film and television industry to meet some people.

In short, at the end of the day, lying on the gorgeous and soft bed in the master bedroom of the Upper West Side villa, I realized again that a certain man had not appeared for a day.

The next few days were still all kinds of continuous rotations.

Checking her body, beauty and maintenance, arranging English classes, starting to apply for various official documents, getting a credit card, she has $50,000 a month for living expenses, and she has successfully integrated into the film and television circle in New York, and has made a few friends who can talk to her. Although, from the polite or cautious or flattering or flattering attitudes of those around him, it is obvious that the shadow of a certain man is felt.

But, whatever?

And the first stage role was quickly finalized.

This is a new drama called "Choice", based on the true story of the famous German conductor Wilheim Furtwängler who was tried after World War II.

The agent, Ms. Motz, hinted that Simon personally chose it for her, because it is a new drama, and it is mainly a men's play, and the heroine does not have many roles, which is very suitable for a newcomer like her to get started, even if it fails, it is nothing, after all, it is not those classics that have a great impact on the enduring and great influence, so it will not have any negative impact on her career.

After being so busy until the weekend, I unconsciously began to get used to this new life.

Although, it doesn't seem to be quite the same as it seems.

And finally remembered one more thing.

Hurriedly contacted a housekeeper and asked the other party to help him find a lawyer, and he always had to cut off the past, at least divorce the marriage first.
