Chapter 30: Turbulence
"Are you interested in this?" asked Janet as she watched her daughter's expression, and immediately asked her when she saw her eyes shining.
"Yes, Mom. Isn't that beautiful?" laughs Layla.
"Yes!" Janet raised her hand without saying a word: "Two hundred thousand." "Shengsheng doubled the reserve price.
Cameron next to him looked at it with a smile. He brought it with the heart of charity, and that thing is not worth much now, and he didn't take it to heart.
"Two hundred and fifty thousand. A voice came from not far behind him.
"Three hundred thousand!" Janet raised her jaw, not looking at the person who had robbed her, and quoted a new price.
But the other party didn't stop: "Three hundred and fifty thousand." ”
"Four hundred thousand!"
"Four hundred and fifty thousand. ”
Except for someone in the middle of the fun, I saw the two of them bidding each other.
Leila looked over to the competing man and saw that it was an Asian man. He was about thirty years old, and a suit that looked like a lot of money showed that he was worth a lot.
It's just this person......
Leila looked at her quizzically.
The Asian man smiled and nodded at her when he saw her looking at him.
Leila subconsciously nodded as well.
"A million!" Janet doubled up, and seemed to be angry at the auction, glaring viciously at the back. Dare to rob the baby daughter of what he fancies, is he deliberately finding fault?
The man, sensing her anger, innocently raised his hand to show abandonment.
Seeing her mother give her the Heart of the Ocean as if she were offering a treasure, Leila hugged her with amusement and emotion: "Thank you, Mom." ”
"If you like it, if you like. Janet was satisfied.
Cameron walked over with a smile: "Keep it well, I think its value will rise in a while." ”
Leila wrapped the Heart of the Ocean in her palms with both hands, felt the slightest coolness emanating from it, and nodded with a smile: "I think it will be." ”
No one knows better than she will be about the impact of next year's film, when the heart of the ocean will be good enough to be sent to a museum for collection.
"Honey, are you tired? Why don't you go back now. Janet looked at the time, and then looked around, and felt that there were evil eyes for her daughter everywhere. The little Casanova, as well as the Asian man who had just fought with her for the heart of the ocean, had been looking this way.
"Uh, okay. Leila thought she would stay until the end, but now that she had gained a lot, she didn't make this trip in vain.
After saying goodbye, the two walked out of the venue.
Unexpectedly, while waiting for the car to come, the Asian man walked over.
"Congratulations on getting Heart of the Ocean, it's incredible. ”
Janet chuckled in her heart, and suddenly became as vigilant as a hen guarding her cubs. Look, she saw that the man had bad intentions toward her daughter, and it was a good thing, so she chased her out.
"yes, not bad. She stood in front of Leila, blocking the man's view.
The Asian man saw her indifference and rejection, but he was not angry, and handed out a business card with a smile: "I'm from HK (hongkong), this is my business card." ”
Janet took it and looked at it, and it turned out to be a stockbroker: "Sorry, Mr. Lu, we don't have much interest in stocks." ”
Just at this time, the car came, and she pushed and pulled Leila to the car.
The car was gone, leaving behind an Asian man who was stunned and his eyes almost glared.
The reason he stayed there was not because he ate a stomach full of car exhaust fumes, nor because he was treated indifferently, but because the girl who had never spoken, only kept smiling, said goodbye to him before getting into the car.
"Goodbye, Mr. Jia Xiaoming. ”
Jia Xiaoming?
She, she......
In the car, seeing her daughter smiling brightly all the time, Janet's heart tugged again.
"Are you interested in Asians? I don't think he's a good guy, maybe the title of a stockbroker is fake, you'd better stay as far away from him as you want!"
Leila laughed, "Mom, I'm not a child. "How do you act like just one person can kidnap her?
"Why aren't you a child?" Janet glared, "You'll always be a child in my eyes." ”
"Yes, yes. Laila didn't bother to argue with her and closed her eyes with a smile.
Janet thought she was tired, so she didn't bother her again, but quietly tore the business card she had just taken to shreds and threw it out the window. There must be no chance to leave any connection between them!
She didn't know that the reason why Leila had taken a few more looks at the man was because she had met an Asian man before. To be exact, he had met another kind of person, that is, the talkative man who called himself Jia Xiaoming when he came to Hollywood to inherit the will.
Although he changed his hairstyle and eyebrow shape, his facial features have also changed a lot, and he can almost be said to be completely different from the last time he saw him, and even his temperament is far from it, but Laila recognized him at a glance.
Last time, he claimed to be a sales manager, and this time he said he was a stockbroker, and Leila felt that if he didn't have a special mission, he was a liar who planned to make a lot of money. That's why she exposed his disguise and made him wary that he wouldn't deceive his mother. I hope what I just said can wake him up, otherwise I really want to deceive my mother, and she will never let him go!
The next day, Janet needed to go to Paris for the fair, and Leila stayed in New York to be fine, so she bought a plane ticket to return to Hollywood.
She doesn't really like flying, she always feels too insecure in the sky, and every time the plane takes off, she can't help but think silly thoughts like "it won't fall off, right?" So usually she will find something for herself on the plane to sit down and distract herself, or simply fall asleep.
As soon as she squinted her eyes and felt a little sleepy, she felt the plane suddenly jerk, and then she heard an exclamation from the cabin.
In this case, any sleepy bugs are scared away, and Layla looks around in horror to see what is going on. finally got the chance to live again, and successfully created her first movie with the lens, her bright future is within reach, and it would be ridiculous to bury herself because of a plane accident at this moment, right?
"Hello passengers, we are passing through a turbulent area, please fasten your seatbelts and do not leave your seats. The reassuring broadcast soon sounded in the cabin.
The sound of the radio was gentle and calm, but the turbulence of the plane was getting worse and worse.
Leila clutched the handrail, screaming in panic as if the end of the world was coming.
Will it die?
She can't die! There's still so much to do, how can she die here!
But weirdly, a ridiculous thought crossed her mind - if she died, the witch Blair who was being screened might have another box office peak......
So can the global box office exceed 200 million or 300 million in the end?
