Chapter 401: Masquerade
Chapter 401: Masquerade
……
But whoever chooses this routine generally has a good box office. But anyone who abandons this routine, except for Nolan's Batman trilogy, whether it is "Hulk", "The Incredible Hulk", or "American Team 1", or "Van Helsing", either did not do well at the box office or lost miserably.
For this reason, he chose Lin Yibin. The latter's two Fast and Furious films in three years have been very successful, earning nearly $150 million in profits for the matrix. Therefore, Guo Shouyun is willing to give him a higher platform. And in his previous life, the continuous success of his directing the popcorn movie "Fast and Furious" can also make Guo Shouyun trust.
"That's right, boss. Eva Green, whom you recommended, is doing well. ”
Guo Shouyun raised his eyebrows, in most superhero movies, the heroine is basically a vase. Eva Green is the same in Hulk. This kind of role that doesn't require too high acting skills, beautiful is enough. Eva Green is certainly good.
However, no matter how he listened, Guo Shouyun felt that Ron Meyer's words were like saying again: Master, I took good care of your concubine.
For this kind of explanation is not clear, Guo Shouyun just changed the topic after a simple 'um'.
"When will the film be released?"
"June this year!"
""Spider-Man 2" spring file, "Hulk" summer file, "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" autumn file, "Angry Sea: Polar Expedition" New Year's file. We have our movies on several major schedules, yes, let's arrange it like this in the future. ”
"Yes!"
"Boss, "National Treasure 2", which is scheduled to be released in the spring of next year, is about to start filming, do you have any candidates to recommend in terms of heroines?"
"Lang, I think you're better suited to be Dennis Hough of Moonlight Bunny Villa than the CEO of Universal Pictures. After a moment of silence, Guo Shouyun said quietly.
"Boss, Kevin is very competent. Universal Pictures has grown well under his stewardship. So, in addition to using my past experience to help him occasionally, I should be more concerned about solving problems for the boss. ”
"This guy is really a shrewd old fritter!" Guo Shouyun said in his heart.
Hollywood is a vanity fair, although it can't be said to hide dirt and dirt, but there are many handsome men and beautiful women, which will naturally make people's hearts lust~ hope breed thousands of times. When the high-level who holds great power meets the handsome men and women who are bent on fame and fortune, the deal happens. Ron Meyer has worked in Hollywood all his life and knows everything about it.
So, after what happened to Eva Green, the old guy obviously thought that he had guessed the mind of the big boss, so he became active in terms of men and women.
To be honest, although Guo Shouyun didn't think about having three palaces and six courtyards in the future, he didn't want to suppress his needs. Relax once in a while, he is not repulsive. It's just that being said so nakedly still makes him a little unaccustomed.
However, he still likes Ron Meyer, an old guy who can understand his own mind and is also capable. In contrast, the young and upright Kevin Feige is a little worse in this regard.
"Now I finally understand why Qianlong likes He Shen, and at the same time he can't do without Liu Luoguo and Ji Xiaolan!"
"Regarding the actors of "National Treasure", Nicolas Cage and Diane Kruger in the first part are good, there is no need to change them!"
"Yes!"
"Is there anything else? I'm hanging up!"
"No, Happy New Year, boss!"
"New Year? yes, isn't it the Lunar New Year for the Chinese people soon?"
"If you don't say it, I'll forget!"
Guo Shouyun hung up the phone and looked out the window, his eyes full of memories revealed indescribable loneliness.
The deepest memory of the Spring Festival is when his grandparents were still there before he was 20 years old in his previous life. As for the parents, they are only monthly child support and parents for Guo Shouyun. As for the parental affection that should be there, he has never felt it since they divorced.
And in this life, he arranged for someone to go to his hometown in his previous life very early, but unfortunately there is no such person as Guo Shouyun at all, and even the relatives he once thought did not exist. He didn't know if it was the laws of the universe or some other reason. But this made him even more lonely.
But fortunately, now he has children and a family of his own.
"Would you like to go back?"
After thinking about it, he shook his head.
"Forget it, there is no habit of celebrating the Spring Festival in the West, so I still don't want to go back and disturb them. Otherwise, the two little ones will pester me again. Watching them cry makes me feel bad too. ”
As for letting them come to Hong Kong, he also thought about it. But thinking of the imminent outbreak of SARS, this idea was completely dispelled.
"Jingle bell...!"
Just when Guo Shouyun was immersed in memories, the mobile phone in his pocket suddenly rang.
Seeing that it was an unfamiliar number, he originally planned to hang up directly, but after thinking about it, he still pressed the answer button.
"Hey, who?"
"Mr. Guo, you won't forget me so quickly, will you?"
"Miss He?"
On the phone, He Chaoqiong's silver-bell-like laughter came, "Thank you, Mr. Guo, for remembering me." ”
"It's only been a few days, and I'm not that forgetful!"
"That's good. However, Mr. Guo, don't forget what you promised me. ”
Thinking of the invitation he received at the charity dinner the day before yesterday, Guo Shouyun thought about it for a while, "I'm sorry, I may...!"
"Mr. Guo, you can't go back on what you promised. Moreover, I have specially prepared a surprise waiting for you!" He Chaoqiong interrupted.
"Surprise? There's not much to surprise me right now!"
"Yes? What about Miss Yang Lishan? I just learned that Mr. Guo and Miss Yang are classmates at Stanford University. Isn't Mr. Guo going to meet his old classmates?"
"How did you know that we were classmates?" Guo Shouyun said with a slight frown.
"Of course, it came from Miss Yang's mouth, we are good girlfriends! By the way, she also wants to meet and chat with your old classmate again. I guess Mr. Guo won't refuse the invitation of his classmates, right?"
Yang Lishan became silent after leaving, which has always been a problem he wants to figure out. So, after some consideration, he affirmed: "I will be there on time in the evening." ”
"That's good. I'm here to wait for Mr. Guo. Oh yes. Don't forget that the venue for the banquet is 99 Repulse Bay Road!"
……
"99 Repulse Bay Road, it should be here!"
Looking at the brightly lit villa outside the car window, Guo Shouyun said.
"Boss, the door is open!"
Looking at the courtyard gates that slowly retreated to both sides, Guo Shouyun nodded, "Let's go in!"
"Yes!"
After driving around a distance of about ten meters along the road that was slowly rising upward, the car stopped in front of the villa in a small square paved with smooth granite. At this time, the place is already full of all kinds of expensive sports cars. Guo Shouyun is usually a high-level Mercedes-Benz bulletproof, but at the moment he is simply dirty here.
Of course, Guo Shouyun also has a sports car, but he just occasionally drives it for a good time.
"Mr. Guo, welcome!"
When Guo Shouyun pushed the car door and walked down, he had already received the news, and He Chaoqiong, who was standing on the steps in front of the door and waiting in advance, took the initiative to greet him.
After shaking hands briefly, "Miss He, I'm here as promised." What about the surprise you are talking about?"
"The surprise is inside!"
He Chaoqiong pointed to the interior of the villa where there was faintly loud music.
Guo Shouyun nodded, turned around and prepared to walk inside.
"Mr. Guo, please wait a minute. ”
When he subconsciously stopped, and when there was doubt in his eyes, He Chaoqiong took a Zorro mask from the report behind him and handed it over.
"Today is a masquerade ball, so I want Mr. Guo to wear this!"
After taking it and looking at it with interest, Guo Shouyun nodded and put on the black mask that covered the upper half of his face.
"Is that okay?"
"Of course!" He Chaoqiong nodded, and then suddenly stepped forward in Guo Shouyun's unexpected eyes, and whispered close to his ear, "80% of the people who attended the banquet today are beautiful women, including many female stars and wealthy ladies, and they don't mind having a 'one-night stand', so Mr. Guo still has to give me a chance." ”
Looking at He Chaoqiong's meaningful expression, Guo Shouyun raised his eyebrows. However, he didn't say much. After simply nodding his head to show that he understood, he turned around and walked in.
Looking at his back, He Chaoqiong smiled faintly, took another pink diamond-encrusted mask and put it on, and followed.
The large living room of more than 200 square meters is full of lights, perhaps because they have covered their faces and put down their disguises, and the men and women here have exposed their true nature more thoroughly and wildly. Catalyzed by high-pitched music and fast-secreted hormones, apart from the fact that there is no 'pop', Guo Shouyun can see any other intimate movements.
"Well, it's nice here, isn't it?"
He Chaoqiong, who came up from behind, said loudly.
After glancing at her, Guo Shouyun nodded slightly, and did not join the crazy party below. Although he sometimes indulges occasionally, he drinks and sings with his close friends. Similar to this naked ~ naked desire ~ hope, instinctively made him a little annoying.
After noticing his calmness, He Chaoqiong said again: "See that woman wearing a blue cat-face mask?"
Guo Shouyun looked in the direction of his finger, and a slender and tall woman wearing a blue cat-faced mask, long black shawl hair, and an off-the-shoulder suspender red dress appeared in his eyes.
