Mark now feels that he has lost his advantage, and he has not been the one who took the lead in everything, took advantage of everything, overrode fate, and became the one who changed fate.

In fact, he is a person who goes with the flow in this world, tonight's party is actually a business party in the name of Christmas Eve, and more than half of the people under the company are all Mark's subordinates, they are in awe of Mark, respect Mark, but they can't play together.

Fortunately, the David Lee family, the Heath family, the Donnies, Hank, Ruby, and Larris are all here, these are all friends, everyone can talk and laugh, Michelle gave birth to a girl at the end of November, Matilda Rose Williams Ledger, a very pink and cute little guy, today they also brought it, became the object of everyone's pursuit, the godfather of the little guy changed from Jack Gyllenhaal to Mark.

And MJ is a dream manor, he also has a family to deal with, and Scarlett and Amber don't dare to come at all, of course, with Mark's status today, there are people who are trying to join his party, Mark sent an invitation, basically arrived, and many people came, hoping to enter the venue and tie up with these top bosses.

Tonight, not only the senior executives of the three major film companies of the MM Group were present, but also famous directors such as Sam Raimi, Ron Howard, Martin Cambenin, Nick, and Favreau, as well as many stars and producers.

These directors and producers, holding film and television projects in their hands, means holding countless jobs, countless big fat, this is power, although most of the roles have to be obtained through auditions, but if someone recommends, especially the recommendation of these famous directors and producers, this is a shortcut, and those powerful directors and producers have a decisive role in many roles.

So Mark's bodyguard captain Stanley personally checked it, without asking for a sticker, no matter how famous a producer or a star is, all of them are in the way, and there are more than a dozen entertainment notes taking pictures at the entrance of the door, just put on a red carpet, which is not inferior to the awards party.

There was a long queue at the entrance because of the need to check the stickers and go through the security check, and Mark's assistant Anne stood aside, and when she saw an important person, she immediately arranged to take a shortcut, as Mark's assistant, she would not allow important people to be left out in the cold, which was her dereliction of duty.

Tonight's party, celebrities gathered, it can be said that this is the style of the entertainment industry tycoon, this lover has a lot of customers, but also this party has to be opened, the reason why it has to be done, even in the identity of Mark, many people can not be offended, like Martin Scorsese, although he is cooperating with Colombia on a project, but this is a cooperation of equal status, not a worker, please post must be sent out, whether to come or not depends on the mood of the old man.

And Ron Howard, the director, came with his daughter Bryce Dallas Howard, an unknown third-tier actress, who immediately became the darling of producers competing for business cards, and wanted to take advantage of Howard's line, even Mark, let alone others.

Ron Howard belongs to the Hollywood Mesozoic generation of directors in the steady, quiet type, actor background, he is well versed in the psychology of the audience, can use the storyline and the inner portrayal of the characters to mobilize the audience's emotions, make the old-fashioned plot show new ideas, create one box office blockbuster after another, and make outstanding contributions to the Hollywood film industry, representative works: "A Beautiful Mind", "Apollo XIII", "The Grinch Stole Christmas", "Foster Talks to Nixon" , main honors: Best Director Award at the 74th Academy Awards, Best Film Award at the 74th Academy Awards.

His highest single-film box office is "The Grinch Stole Christmas", 350 million worldwide, but it will soon be surpassed by next year's "The Da Vinci Code", 760 million worldwide, doubled, this is a big director on the rise, no wonder Mark looks the other way.

And the other main character of "The Da Vinci Code", producer and star Tom Hanks, did not come, not because he didn't give Mark face, but everyone knew that he was a family-oriented person, and important holidays were spent with his family, and everyone understood this.

As for Spider-Man Maguire's non-arrival, it is expected, his chronic myelitis is not cured? What about still pretending to be dead in bed and trying to put more pressure on the crew? Sam Raimi is quite helpless, once people are fascinated by money, they can't see anything else.

The important people of the crew of "Spider-Man 3" are here, Kirsten Dunst, Fu Lanlan, etc. are here, and everyone in Hollywood understands that there are many ways to be popular, but it is definitely the best shortcut to make the boss of a giant film company take a fancy to it, and even Howard introduced his daughter to the big guys, not to mention other people who work hard in the camp.

With so many people coming, Mark and his wife could only talk a few words each, and all the night was full of smiles, saying "Hello!" "Hey!" and "Have fun" Giselle enjoyed the party, holding Mark's arm, maneuvering among various celebrities, she enjoyed being complimented and respected like a first lady, she prepared five dresses for tonight's party, and two makeup artists were on standby at all times so that different clothes matched different makeup looks.

And Mark is a black suit and white shirt from beginning to end, mature and solemn, mysterious and elegant black, which is his favorite, so he will not be like Giselle, who changes five sets of clothes for a party.

Lisa said to Blake, "If you're not so stubborn, this first lady is yours." ”

Lisa is Blake's classmate, she couldn't get into college, so she simply entered MM and became Blake's personal assistant, and it was she who instigated Blake to rape first and then kill Mark, which scared Mark.

Blake said: "I don't care!" said so, but there was a strange feeling in her heart, she insisted on breaking up, thinking that Mark was a scumbag, and there was no future between them, but in less than two years, Mark not only rose as fast as a rocket in his career, but only two years later, he got married and had children, in Blake's expectations, this kind of person will not have commitments, will not get married, they are people who have been playing in the name of singleness.

Mark wasn't as scummy as she thought, but it was a bit late to find out, he was married and became someone else's husband and someone else's father.

Lisa continued to rub salt on the wounds: "MM Group, the proprietress of Columbia Pictures and MGM, the yacht Giselle, the palace, the fairytale kingdom of the Tahoe Lake, the ultimate lifelong dream of many people, is one step away from you, but now you can only look at it from the starting line." ”

Blake frowned and said, "Is it necessary to be happy if you have money?"

Lisa said: "If you don't have money, you must be unhappy, why do we work so hard? You see how majestic Vice President Caroline is at MGM? Now she looks in front of Mark and his wife? It's just flattering, this stinky shameless, it is said that she is relying on finding a woman for Mark, Hilde is a slut, you know? Mark's lover, how did the villa McLaren come about, she can't afford to buy it if she sells it, it's really shameless." ”

"That's why I didn't choose Mark," Blake said. ”

Lisa said: "I don't see that Giselle is a little unhappy, a villa like a fairy tale castle, and the same treatment as a first lady." ”

Blake's face sank and he said, "I envy you so much that you can be his assistant." ”

Lisa shrugged her shoulders and said, "Okay! I won't say it, so as not to rub salt into your wounds." ”

As they were complaining, Mark walked over to them, and Blake immediately felt short of breath and a little at a loss.

Mark elegantly raised the champagne in his hand and said, "Why are you so happy to talk about?" ”

Blake was a little taller and more graceful, graceful and charming, and Mark always liked her smile that looked a little melancholy, very feminine.

Lisa is also an old acquaintance, and after eating a few times, she hurriedly said, "We are talking about regret medicine." ”

Mark laughed, "Yes, there is no regret medicine in the world." ”

Blake's face turned unnatural and he said, "Is it necessary for you to show off like this?"

Mark said, "I mean me. ”

"We've been separated for a long time, what's the point of you saying these things?"

Mark said: "I just want to tell you, don't feel embarrassed, it's me who is wrong, and we're still friends, you're a good girl, you deserve better." ”

Blake saw Mark's sincere look, which struck a soft part of her heart, and she waved Lisa away, saying, "You don't look very happy, it doesn't match tonight's theme." ”

Mark said: "People are always annoyed, how does it feel to be a popular idol star? People are vying for autographs and group photos, which feels great, right?"

Blake laughed, "You should know, you've lived this life for a long time, you were famous in school, you were the most famous alumnus of the school. ”

Mark said: "I am tired of all this, as if I feel old, and with all this in my hands, there is no motivation to move forward. ”

"You should be a little bit of a pursuit, you see Martin Scorsese and Woody Allen, still making movies at such an old age," Blake said. ”

Mark said, "It's a pleasure to talk to you about this, enjoy the party, right?" He stopped the conversation when he saw Giselle come out again, he wanted to kiss goodbye, and after thinking about it, he raised his cup in his hand and said goodbye.

Blake smiled and said, "You too." He waved his hand goodbye, and sighed in his heart, he would never kiss me again.

Mark came to the bottom of the stairs and waited for Giselle, who was a little clumsy in steps, to come down the stairs, her belly was big, her figure was completely out of shape, and she was either a big fat boy or a big fat girl, but in Mark's heart, she was so dignified and generous.

I wish you a happy and prosperous New Year.
