Chapter Sixty-Seven: Tom Cruise

Hollywood's Sunset Boulevard, Lester drove a Lamborghini to the high street, parked his car in a parking space, got out of the car and walked into a nearby restaurant.

The waiter at the restaurant asked, "Sir, what do you need?" ”

Taking off his sunglasses, Lester looked around and said, "Help me open a private room near the door, I'll wait for someone." ”

"Okay, this way, please. ''The waiter took Lester to the nearest private room.

When you enter the private room, you can see through the glass from the inside, and the exquisite dining table and chairs are neatly arranged.

"I don't need to do something first. Lester sat in his seat, and the waiter asked;

As soon as the waiter asked, Lester felt a little dry in his throat and said, "Just help me get a glass of water." ”

"Okay," the waiter opened the door and walked out.

After a while, the waiter came in with two glasses of drinkable water, and Emmanuel, who had just arrived in the back, followed suit.

"Lester, you're coming so fast. Emmanuel sat down, took a glass of water from the waiter's hand, took a sip, and placed it on the table.

Putting the water in front of Lester, the waiter stepped back.

"Those two haven't arrived yet, tell me about Spielberg!" Lester asked about the two of them getting the rights to adapt "The Color Purple", and was very interested;

Emmanuel explained to Lester how difficult the author was.

After saying that, Emmanuel picked up the cup, drank the water inside, and continued: "Mr. Spielberg has started to find someone to write the script and prepare the crew for the filming of "The Color Purple". ”

"So fast. Lester said with some surprise;

Thinking of Spielberg's enthusiasm for getting the film adaptation rights of "The Color Purple", Emmanuel said with a smile: "Don't you see Mr. Spielberg's hot energy, like an enthusiastic madman, he can't put it down." ”

Spielberg got the film adaptation rights of "The Color Purple", and together with Deems, he looked for a screenwriter adaptation in the screenwriters' guild, hoping to shoot it early.

"The Color Purple" tells the story of Georgia's black sisters Celie and Nanty, who have been separated since childhood, and are finally reunited after many years.

Talking to Spielberg about "The Color Purple" that day, Lester heard that Spielberg planned to throw away his previous shooting techniques, and planned to use a stream-of-consciousness life to capture the essence of the award-winning novel, which truly reflected the tragic and stubborn life of a black woman, which was very different from his previous style.

In an ordinary house in Los Angeles, Paula Wagner opened the door and walked into the living room, where she saw a dark-skinned, 1.7-meter-tall boy sitting on the sofa watching TV.

"Hey, Tom, I have good news for you. Paula Wagnara sat on the couch and looked at the boy opposite;

The boy turned his head and had a handsome appearance, gray-green eyes, and even his dark skin could not stop his idol temperament.

Tom said suspiciously: "What's the good news, is someone looking for me to film," his tone paused, and he smiled a little self-defeatingly: "I am often said that my skin is too dark, and I have been rejected so many times, which one can't think of it and comes to me to film." ”

"Nope. Paula Wagnera raised her finger and shook it, her eyes flashed, and she said, "We're going to see someone today." ”

"Who!" Tom asked, stunned slightly, and seeing that Paula Wagnara was a little strange;

Paula Wagnara said with a deep look in her eyes: "You will know when you see it." ”

"Alright!" Paula Wagnara didn't say, and Tom could only get up and follow the agent out of the room and get into the car.

"Master, go to the commercial street of Sunset Boulevard. ”

The driver of the car was a fat old man, and Paula Wagnara explained where the two were going.

The taxi drove the two to Hollywood's Sunset Boulevard.

Arriving at the commercial street of Sunset Boulevard, the two got out of the car, and Tom followed Paula Wagner into a restaurant.

"What is needed... The waiter was about to ask the two, but Paula Wagner said directly: "The two of us have an appointment, and the reservation is Lestrore." ”

The waiter came to his senses, raised his hand and pointed to the outermost private room and said, "Mr. Lester is already waiting there." ”

Paula Wagner looked to the place where the waiter was pointing, and from here through the glass Lester and Emmanuel could be seen chatting inside.

"Who they are. ”

Tom looked at the two people in the private room, feeling a little familiar, followed Paula Wagner over, and asked with some confusion;

He has just entered Hollywood, and in order to be able to get roles, he rarely goes to those Times and magazines recently, and it doesn't feel very familiar at a glance.

"Lestrore. ”

Paula Wagner explains;

In the private room, Lester chatted with Emmanuel and clicked open the door of the private room.

The two chatting stopped talking, and when they turned their heads, they saw a middle-aged man and a handsome young man with dark skin and a handsome appearance following the waiter in.

The young man looked confused, apparently not knowing Lester and Emmanuel.

"Hello, Mr. Paula Wagner. “

Haha, Emmanuel, it's better to be famous. Emmanuel got up and hugged the tall middle-aged man in front of him.

"I think this is Mr. Lestrore. Paula Wagner looked at Leicester and said;

"Hello, please take a seat!"

Lester raised his hand to his seat, turned to Tom Cruise, who had been looking at her and Emmanuel, and smiled and said, "Hello, Tom Cruise." ”

"Oh oh, hello. Tom Cruise looked at Lester, who was a little taller than him in front of him, and replied in a daze, suddenly thinking of the teenager he saw from a distance at the Oscars, and then he reacted: "You are Lesterore." ”

"Yes!" Lester nodded, and Tom Cruise realized that Paula Wagnara had come to see Lester.

"Looks like you didn't know me just now. ”

Seeing Tom Cruise's expression, Lester realized that Tom Cruise didn't recognize him just now.

Lester actually wanted to shout a good soup, and the boy in front of him was the well-known Tom Cruise.

The current Tom Cruise has not been contacted by the CAA agency, but he is just a newcomer who has just entered the entertainment industry, and it has not been long since he was discovered by Paula Wagner.

Lester took the menu handed by the waiter, ordered a fish cutlet, and instead of putting the menu in front of Paula Wagnara and Emmanuel, he turned it to Tom Cruise and said, "Whatever you want, I'm in for a treat today." ”

Paula Wagnara's eyes flashed, and he could see that Lester valued Tom Cruise.

After ordering the food they wanted to eat, Lester looked at Paula Wagner and Tom Cruise and said, "Do you two want to change jobs and work at UTA, I will bring you unimaginable benefits." ”

Tom Cruise shook and looked at Lester in dismay.
