One cool morning, still in the woods in a small park near the apartment building, Matthew met Elena Boyar, who had come all the way to her appointment.

"You seem to have lost weight. ”

Sitting at the stone table, Matthew looked at her, "It's really thin." ”

Elena Boyar sat across from her, flicked her golden ponytail behind her and said, "I've been losing weight lately. ”

Matthew gave her a thumbs up, "The effect is obvious. ”

Originally, Yelena Boyar was tall and sturdy, like the Sha Boy who used to play tennis, but now she has lost a lot of weight.

"You called me to ask me to come here," Elena Boyar asked directly, not concerned about her size at all, "what's the matter?"

Matthew took a bottle of mineral water from the bag under the stone table, tossed it to Yelena Boyar, and said, "Don't you want news? ”

When the termination agreement was signed, he greeted Helen Herrmann, who had no objection.

"Do you remember to give me the news?" Elena Boyar grumbled, raising an eyebrow, and then asked, "Tell me about it." ”

Matthew stopped going around in circles and said directly, "Do you know Vin Diesel?"

"Of course. Elena Boyar followed his words and said, "Spielberg once set up a role for him in "Saving Private Ryan", the male protagonist of "Star Legends" released in February, and there are rumors in the circle that he is Spielberg's illegitimate son......"

Hearing this, Matthew's gossip heart surged up and asked, "Is he?"

Yelena Boyar shook her head, "As far as I know, it shouldn't be. She continued the topic earlier, "Vin Diesel seems to be working on "Fast and Furious" lately......"

At this point, she realized something and looked at Matthew, "I remember you were also in 'Fast & Furious', and you had a clash with Vin Diesel. ”

"Am I that kind of person?" asked Matthew deliberately.

Yelena Boyar looked at Matthew, first snorted, and then said very seriously, "You are!"

"If you say yes, it's fine. Matthew changed to a cryptic tone, "I'll give you a little top-secret information so that you don't complain." ”

"Hurry up. Yelena Boyar urged.

"I was terminated by the Fast & Furious crew. Matthew took out another bottle of mineral water and said as he unscrewed the lid, "The mastermind behind this is Vin Diesel." ”

Elena Boyar doubted, "Will you be calculated?"

Matthew took a sip of water and said, "Is it necessary for me to lie about this?"

Putting down the water bottle, he roughly described what had happened recently on the Fast and Furious crew, but he hid the two punches.

"Such an exaggeration?" said Elena Boyar, surprised, "he's a third-rate star at best!"

Matthew spread his hands and said, "The truth is more exaggerated than I said, you can go to the crew for an interview, and I believe that someone will vent their dissatisfaction with Vin Diesel." ”

Elena Boyard could understand the meaning behind these words, "Don't worry, we have a long-term relationship, I will definitely not mention you, even if I can't interview other people, it will be the news leaked by well-informed people." ”

"If I'm not worried about you...... "Matthew isn't worried at all, "I won't be looking for you." ”

"Well, I'll find a way to interview the crew. Yelena Boyar also unscrewed the mineral water and took a sip," wrote a report on the Internet. ”

"Online?" asked Matthew curiously, "isn't it U.S. News Report?"

Elena Boyar said directly, "I fired Squid from U.S. News and now I'm working at Yahoo Entertainment." She seemed to remind Matthew, "The use of the Internet for entertainment journalism is more timely, flexible, and free, and the Internet entertainment gossip media is the future of entertainment journalists like me." ”

"I wish you the number one gossip in Hollywood in the future!" Matthew replied casually.

"Thank you. Elena Boyard accepted this 'compliment' very generously, stood up and said goodbye to leave, and suddenly thought of something before leaving, "Recently, there has been gossip circulating in the circle that Britney Spears has a boyfriend. ”

Matthew said calmly, "Really? ”

Elena Boyard glanced at Matthew, saw that he didn't have anything unusual, and said, "It is said that the news was released by Christina Aguilera, and there are a lot of bad things between her and Britney, which may not be accurate." ”

She waved her hand at Matthew, "Okay, I'm leaving, call me if there's something." ”

Matthew waved his hand at Yelena Boyar, waited for her tall figure to disappear into the woods, stood up and walked to the other side.

Shortly after returning to the apartment, he received a call from Helen Herman, who informed him that the crew of "The Mummy Returns" had booked him a flight to London and would be leaving for London tomorrow morning for the filming of the Scorpion King.

Due to Helen Herman's original negotiations, Matthew's ticket was business class.

And Helen Herman also got the news that Sean Daniel, the crew producer who returned to Los Angeles to deal with financial affairs, was also on the same flight as him, but in first class.

Matthew already knew that the reason why he was able to pass the audition of the Scorpion King was because of Sean Daniel's support, and if it weren't for some cryptic perceptions of this conservative white Southerner, he might not be able to squeeze out Dwayne Johnson.

At Universal Studios, Sean Daniel finished his work, came out of the office area, and walked towards the coffee shop he had booked.

Yesterday afternoon, a senior executive of Universal Pictures called him, saying that a promising rising star had asked him to meet, and for the sake of this person's face, he agreed.

As soon as Sean Daniel entered the coffee shop, a bald head came over.

"Hello, Mr. Daniel. The bald head introduced himself with a cold face and an urn voice, "I'm Vin Diesel." ”

As he spoke, Vin Diesel held out his hand.

"Hello. Sean Daniel glanced at Vin Diesel's face and his arm that showed his short-sleeved shirt, and there was a hint of extremely imperceptible disgust, fleeting.

He politely shook Vin Diesel's outstretched hand.

"This way, please. Vin Diesel led the way.

Sean Daniel followed Vin Diesel, wiping his right hand on his trouser leg very covertly, as if he had been stained with dirt.

If he had known that he would see this kind of person, he would not have come.

Out of courtesy and the face of the senior at Universal Pictures, Sean Daniel sat across from Vin Diesel and asked bluntly, "You have something to do with me?"

"I'm currently working on Universal Pictures' Fast & Furious. Vin Diesel said tactfully, "I'm friends with Jett Breton from Universal Pictures, and he was in charge of this project, and I helped him get a lot of investment ......."

Sean Daniel was not interested in chatting with this kind of person for a long time, so he raised his hand to interrupt and said, "If you have something to say, please say it directly, okay?"

Vin Diesel was stunned, not understanding why Sean Daniel had such a bad attitude, he did not offend him, and he also posed as Jett Breton, the person who spoke on his behalf......

"Forget it?" Vin Diesel hesitated, "and what he said may be in vain." ”

The coffee they had asked for was delivered at this time, Vin Diesel raised his hand to put sugar in the coffee, and felt a faint pain in his shoulder, and the events of that afternoon instantly came to mind.

The hesitation in his heart quickly disappeared, and he made up his mind again.

It's just a filmmaker on the other side, and he's going to be a filmmaker soon, and it's not a big deal, even if Sean Daniel doesn't agree, it's a big deal.

When has he, Mark Vincent, ever been afraid of others!

Vin Diesel was a very arrogant and self-conscious man after all.

"I'd like to ask you for a favor, it's easy. He spoke directly, "There's an actor on your 'The Mummy Returns' crew named Matthew Horner, he's a jerk and smashed my ......"

Vin Diesel paused for a moment and decided to pull the senior executive of Universal Pictures in, "Deliberately smashed my car and Jett Breton's car, Jett Breton is very angry, and after the two of us have discussed, we are going to make him disappear from all the films that Universal has invested in!"

Sean Daniel was expressionless and didn't say anything, he certainly remembered who Matthew Horner was, and that was the actor he had finalized as the Scorpion King.

"Mr. Daniel...... "Vin Diesel said with the mindset of giving it a try, "I believe it's just a small thing for you." ”

Probably innate, even when he said such things, he had a cold expression, giving people the feeling of cowhide coaxing.

However, Vin Diesel does think highly of himself, adding, "Jett Breton and I will accept this favor from you." ”

Sean Daniel raised his eyes and looked at Vin Diesel's head, a hint of mockery appeared at the corner of his mouth, "Take advantage of me?" he snorted coldly and said, "Vin Diesel, right? You better take care of your own affairs and interfere less with others!"

Speaking of this, Sean Daniel suddenly accentuated his tone, "My crew, are people like you qualified to meddle!"

Vin Diesel was stunned, as if he didn't expect Sean Daniel to say such heavy words.

Sean Daniel took out his wallet, took out a bill from it, slapped it on the table, paid for his untouched coffee, and left the café on his own, regardless of Vin Diesel's reaction.

The crew of "The Mummy Returns" was filming intensively at Pinewood Studios, and Sean Daniel flew back to London the next day, along with Matthew, but because of the different cabins, he didn't see Sean Daniel.

came to the hotel prepared by the crew, Matthew checked in, and started to rest early to reverse jet lag, the filming of the Scorpion King scene is about to start, and he has to face a director who has prejudices against him, and he must be mentally prepared to deal with it.
