Chapter 160: The Gathering
"Who's that, it's so beautiful!"
"Do you think that woman is the boss's girlfriend? ”
"Nonsense, isn't the boss's girlfriend the girl named Gwen Stephanie?"
"Of course not, your message is outdated, let me tell you, I heard from Dimes that the boss has broken up with Gwen Stephanie. ”
"Really, great, maybe I'll have a chance. ”
"Come on, it's you, and you still want to be the boss's girlfriend. ”
Along the way, Lester took Mocony Wright on a tour of Asuka Films, which attracted many staff members to look at it secretly, most of the men's eyes were focused on Mocony Wright, while the woman was discussing the two, her eyes flashing with gossip.
Mocony Wright is wearing a blue skirt wrapped around her tsundere figure, yellow hair and shawl, and her classical delicate face makes many male employees show wolf eyes.
"You're quite popular in the company. ”
Mokcony Wright quipped as the men looked at Lester with adoration.
Lester smiled and shrugged.
As he led Asuka Film and Television from a small company to a medium-sized company, the company's employees saw Leicester a lot in their eyes.
There will be no more doubts like at the beginning, and now I have self-confidence in Leicester, especially after the opening of the year-end bonus, and everyone's enthusiasm for work is high.
Seeing the looks of the employees, Lester couldn't help but say, "Sister, you are dressed so beautifully today, look at the male employees who are fascinated by you."
Mocony Wright didn't care about the eyes around her, but when she heard the employees around her mention the word breakup, she looked at Lester with a little reaction, "You broke up with Gwen Stephanie." ”
"It's a breakup. ”
Leading Mocony Wright towards the main office, Lester nodded in acknowledgement, "The other day. ”
"Why did you break up with Gwen all of a sudden? ”
Mokcony Wright asked Lester with some curiosity.
"Maybe it's been too long since the two parts were separated!"
Lester shrugged his shoulders and clicked on the elevator door, and the two walked into the elevator and disappeared from the sight of the employees on this floor.
"That's a shame. ”
Mocony Wright said with some regret that she didn't think about trying to keep the union of the two for Lester's breakup.
As for emotional matters, Mocony Wright felt that as an older sister, she still had little to do with Lester's affairs.
The elevator door opened, and Lester led Mocony Wright towards his office.
The appearance of the two on this floor could not avoid the heated discussions of the employees, and they got together to speculate.
"Don't you have to do things?"
A shout rang out from behind the gathered staff, causing a few people to turn their heads to see Dims looking at them without anger.
"Let's go!"
The gathered people hurriedly returned to their posts.
Dimes then looked at Lester and Mokonny Wright, "Boss, hello Miss Mokonny." ”
"You know me. ”
Mocony Wright hugged Dimes with some surprise.
Someone in Asuka Pictures could know her, which surprised Mokonelle Wright.
"I saw it from the boss's photo and knew that the boss had a sister. Dimes looked at Lester, and Mokonelle Wright was enlightened.
As several people walked into the office, Lester beckoned to the assistant who came with him, "Give this young lady a glass of juice." Then he looked at Mokcony Wright and said, "I've got the newspapers here, you can read the news first." ”
"Okay. ”
Mokconette nodded, picked up a newspaper and sat on the couch to open it.
"How's the preparation for 'Rain Man'. ”
Lester sat down in his chair and asked Dims.
The filming of "Rain Man" has been in January 1988 from March to now, half a year has passed, and Lester is not very clear where it has gone.
Seeing Lester ask about the filming of "Rain Man", Dimes reportedly said: "The storyboard directed by Barry Levinson has been drawn, and it will start filming when Mr. Dustin Hoffman finishes studying." ”
"Oh, have you been there with Mr. Dustin Hoffman? Lester was slightly surprised, more than half a year to shape, has not satisfied Dustin Hoffman.
"Yes. Dimes nodded, and said with some admiration in his eyes: "Mr. Dustin Hoffman is very dedicated, and his studies do not seem to have met his expectations. ”
Lester thought of the last time Michael Ovitz wanted to buy the script of "Rain Man", and hurriedly asked: "Did Michael Ovitz react after signing the cooperation contract last time?"
"Nothing happened. Dimes said with great certainty: "Mr. Dustin Hoffman's insistence made Michael Ovitz basically give up the idea of buying the script of "Rain Man" and did not do anything else. ”
"That's good. Lester breathed a sigh of relief, but still reminded Dims, "Even if Michael Ovitz compromises, we must be vigilant against them to avoid accidents such as overheads." ”
Although Dustin Hoffman's insistence on starring made Michael Ovitz compromise, Lester was not at all at ease with them.
Michael Ovitz, an old fritter, could have done some action to override the control of "Rain Man" or plagiarize and adapt it into another script.
Dimes told him what Lester wanted to know and walked out of the company.
At this time, Mocony Wright put down the newspaper in her hand, got up and walked to Lester's office desk, reached out and knocked on the table, "I have one more thing to tell you." ”
"Say it, sister. ”
Lester relaxed and leaned back in his chair, looking at her quizzically.
Mocony Wright didn't care about Lester's idea, and said informally: "Shirley Sandberg invited us to the bar in the afternoon, you can't shirk it." ”
Lester was surprised and sat up slightly straight, "She's in Los Angeles." ”
"She came to Los Angeles yesterday afternoon with her father on an errand. Mocony Wright affirmed;
I haven't seen Shirley Sandberg for four years, which makes Lester miss this friend a little, since the other party is enthusiastic and not allowed to shirk, how can Lester refuse, "I'll go, but is it just the three of us?"
It's not just the two of us. Mokonny Wright shook her head, "And Robert Downey Jr." ”
"Did you inform him?"
Lester asked, confused;
"If he's not mistaken, Robert Downey Jr. doesn't seem to have left a phone for you. ”
"So I want you to inform me, it's fun when there are more people. ”
Mokonny Wright looked at Lester as a matter of course.
"I'm calling him now. ”
Lester raised an eyebrow and picked up the phone to call Donny.
"Lester, is there anything wrong with you?"
The phone was connected, and Robert Downey Jr.'s voice came, and Lester hurriedly asked, "Do you have time in the afternoon?"
"Yes, what's wrong. Robert Downey Jr. asked suspiciously.
"Come out in the afternoon and go to the bar with my sister and them. Lester said invitingly;
"Okay!"
Robert Downey Jr. agreed without thinking about it, and seeing that Lester had nothing else to do, he said, "I'll come to Bird Film and Television in the afternoon." After that, he hung up the phone.
