"Hey, do you see anything?"

Across the street from Seven Winton Street at night, Sergei asked in a police car. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"It seems like someone is going to speak, and Alice is right below him."

Pollin looked across from her night vision binoculars, and through the two- or three-meter-high glass on the second floor of Room 7, she could clearly see that a blonde man was standing on the stairs, obviously about to say something, surrounded by a group of people.

As for their protection target, Alice of the Wang family was indeed standing below the man.

"Cut, aren't you just a bunch of guys who are drunk on money."

Sergei ate the second cold Big Mac, which was his dinner: "I wish that serial murderer really came over and shot that golden retriever!" ”

At this time, in the huge mansion of the Lawrence family, many well-dressed guests stood at the foot of the central staircase, Sissi, dressed in dark green, and Alice, dressed in white, standing on both sides of the staircase, one on the left and one on the right. And above that, Mr. Lawrence elegantly held up his glass, surrounded by his beloved wife.

It's just that no one notices that the two little beauties on the left and the right have very strange expressions, as if they are about to collapse.

As the organizer of tonight's party, Mr. Lawrence had the duty to address the guests. At this moment, he held a wine glass, looked at the guests around him with a smile, and spoke in a silent environment.

"I'm excited to join you today, and it's going to be the most influential private party in the history of American entertainment."

Really......

The corners of Alice's eyes twitched.

Immediately after, I heard Mr. Lawrence speak aloud.

"100 years ago, a group of freelance photographers accidentally discovered this place, a place surrounded by mountains and rivers. Then, over the next decade or so, as more and more photographers arrived, small companies and independent producers began to emerge from the control of patent companies, gradually forming a film center. ”

"In the period before and after World War I, some of the great masters of cinema, such as Griffith and Chaplin, won world fame for American cinema, Wall Street conglomerates intervened in the film industry, and Hollywood movie cities quickly formed and sang."

"Today, 100 years later, however, we still have an indisputable fact to face."

The corners of Alice's eyes twitched uncontrollably, and she looked at Sissi, who was really dizzy.

As for the audience at large, the vast experience and literacy of adults listened with interest, or rather, it was.

Just listen to Mr. Lawrence continue: "Now, 100 years later, under the shackles of the oil crisis and the rise of the European film market, Hollywood's development is being suppressed. Today, 100 years later, the American people still live on an impoverished island in the ocean of material abundance. Today, 100 years later, American writers and artists are still working hard and realizing that they are the founders of the resurgence of American culture after World War II. ”

Alice was noncommittal in the face of Mr. Lawrence's adaptation, and as for his adapted speech itself, it was indeed true. Although her current involvement in the literary and artistic circles is limited, she still knows that the last period of great development in Hollywood was indeed before and after World War II, and the current European films are indeed quite exciting, which once overshadowed the prestige of Hollywood.

It's just that I don't want to attend an industry party, and this sudden sense of discomfort is ......

Just listen to Mr. Lawrence's speech continue: "As long as the audience remains enthusiastic about Hollywood films, I will never be satisfied; As long as we are tired from the run, and we can't rest in the motels by the highway and the hotels in the city, and read a wonderful novel, I will never be satisfied. No, I won't be satisfied! ”

"I have a dream, I dream that one day, I can live in a vibrant, vibrant city; I dream that one day, I can see the scene of the crew filming while walking on the street; I dream of the day when everyone in the film industry sees me and greets me very warmly - Lawrence, it's a pleasure to meet you! ”

"This time last year, my dream was halfway there. I have moved to the city and live in a beautiful neighborhood with my beloved wife and lovely daughter. ”

The adaptation stage is finally over, but the next sentences are really much worse than the previous ones. Alice believed that it was not only she who was thinking so, although it was very subtlely hidden, but the smiling faces of the surrounding audience were indeed strange.

"When I'm walking down the street, I can really see the crew filming all the time, especially in West Hollywood and Mulholland Drive, where there are cameras going on almost every day!"

"But please don't laugh at me, for ambition grows. After living in Los Angeles for a whole year, I had a new idea. ”

"Start a film company!"

When Mr. Lawrence shouted this sentence in a high tone, the entire living room was silent.

Immediately after, a rushing noise suddenly sounded.

"Film company!? Lawrence, you're just a venture capital manager! ”

"Are you leaving? No more venture capital in the future!? ”

"Okay, Lawrence, you want to get a piece of the film market too? Looks like we're going to be competitors in the future? ”

In the midst of the constant noise, Mr. Lawrence raised his glass to the crowd: "I know you have a lot of questions, but starting a film company has really been my dream since I was a child. I have been working as a venture capital manager for many years, and I have accumulated a lot of capital and contacts...... Of course, all of you here are my friends. Therefore, for my future entrepreneurial career, I hope that you will support me and help my career reach the peak! ”

Although too many people were full of doubts, since Mr. Lawrence said so, no one would be stingy with their applause, and for a while, the audience was once again filled with applause. Many people are shouting incessantly, but in this noise, they can't hear much.

Left and right, Alice and Sissi were also clapping their palms vigorously, with happy and surprised expressions on their faces.

At least on the surface.

"Is your father crazy?"

After the speech, in an inconspicuous corner, Alice shouted in a low voice, and she was greatly surprised.

At this time, the banquet continued, and the guests once again entered the rhythm of gathering and talking, and Mr. Lawrence was surrounded by many people. After all, whether it was the speech itself that he had just adapted the famous article, or the decision to finally promote his decision to set up a film company, it was enough to be the most important topic of the evening.

"No, in fact, he had this idea for a long time, but I really didn't expect that he would give such a speech and say something...... I have a dream...... What's going on? ”

To say that Alice was surprised, Sissi covered her forehead even harder, as if she was about to faint at any moment. It's also thanks to her own home, and the corner she found is just right to avoid the sight of others.

"It's not surprising, if I'm not mistaken, I did bump into it when I came to your house last weekend...... Quite a spooky scene. ”

The corners of Alice's mouth twitched and she looked out into the corner of the living room, and Mr. Lawrence was talking to the CEO of Paramount: "I saw him reciting Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" passionately, and it was really passionate. Sissi, I said don't be angry, I thought he was ......"

"Isn't your brain normal? I'm not angry, don't look at my dad as a venture capital manager, his essence ...... Well, you can tell from the way he dresses. ”

Alice looked around, and among the black suits in the audience, Mr. Lawrence's slim pink suit was really dazzling, as bright as a peacock mixed into the flock, but he also had blonde hair.

"I know, the literary and artistic youth of the second secondary school, Sissi, look at your father, I suddenly have a dream."

“…… You're going to make a movie too? ”

"Not really, but I'd love to write a children's fantasy literature, a seven-part series, and your father could have moved in as a character."

"That's his pleasure......"

Alice really felt that tonight was not in vain, and thought that it was just a show for her friends, after all, she also found that there were only two peers at the party, herself and Sissi.

But who would have thought that Sissi's father would make such a statement?

Although it has nothing to do with her, tonight is really not in vain!

"Uncle Lawrence?"

So, when Sissi went to the bathroom, she made her way to the corner of the living room, where Mr. Lawrence had finished talking to the CEO of Paramount and was standing with another person in the industry.

"Oh, it's Alice, have you had a good night?"

Mr. Lawrence raised her champagne glass slightly: "Let me introduce you, this is my daughter's good friend, Alice Wong, who also lives on Vinton Street. ”

Standing in front of Alice was a strange man, an old man in his sixties. He wore a pair of black-rimmed glasses, and he just stood there, and he couldn't hide his elegant demeanor.
