Chapter 295: Behind the Queen
Li Mo looked at this girl and thought, makeup is really important, good makeup, an ordinary girl can immediately become a beautiful girl, not good makeup, or deliberately step on it, even if it is the future queen, she will obediently become an ugly duckling. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The girl's mother looked at him too, and checked the newspaper in her hand, no matter what kind of mother she was...... After all, my mother came to this strange environment, and I was a little uneasy.
Li Mo beckoned to the girl and asked, "Are you short-sighted?"
"A little. ”
Li Mo couldn't hear it clearly.
Martin explains: "Boss, she and her mother both have a very strong Afrikaans accent and communication is difficult. ”
That is, the mother and daughter do not speak London English, nor American English, but English from the ends of the earth.
"Okay," Li Mo rubbed his nose and laughed, and said, "Let's try to say slowly, you take off your glasses, can you see clearly?"
"Yes. ”
"Why are you wearing glasses?"
"I'm so tall that when I sit at the back of the classroom, I can't read the words on the blackboard. ”
"That is, pseudomyopia...... This doesn't matter, I have to learn to protect my eyesight in the future, see, I also lie in front of the computer and type, the TV hurts the glasses more, but I try to stay away from it, every once in a while, I will look out the window, and then do eye exercises. ”
"What are eye exercises?"
"I'll teach you later, and the combination of food, it's also very important, there are many myopia, which is caused by malnutrition. ”
In terms of family income, her family is relatively good in South Africa, but it is actually ......
"You take your glasses off first. ”
The girl took off her glasses, maybe she wore them for a little longer, and the face shape around her eyes was squeezed by the glasses, which was a little affected. But Li Mo knows her future, what is a stunner, and the girl in front of her will only be called a stunner when she grows up, and she is bright and beautiful.
"Are you the one who wrote that movie novel?" asked the girl, a little uneasily, weakly.
"Yes, if you see these drafts, they will basically be adapted into movies in the future. ”
"Wow. ”
"Is it true that the newspapers say you're the smartest person?"
"No, there are many aspects of human ability, literature, music, art, politics, military, etc., or divided into imagination, creative ability, management ability, invention ability, communication ability, performance ability, etc., if I am asked to be a star to make movies, it will be dead. ”
"I hear it, you're saying it's great where you grow. ”
"Yes, a smart girl. ”
Li Mo then looked at her mother, and Martin pulled him aside. On the surface, this girl's family background is very good, her father is French, her mother is German, although her family is in a small village outside Johannesburg, South Africa, but her parents run a road construction company, which is not too large, but it can be regarded as a standard middle class. So she later said, my hometown is very remote, but we are self-sufficient and lack nothing, just like a small farm. Because of the economic conditions, she received a good education since she was a child, and she couldn't do Afrikanese English, and the local schools were probably like this, and she began to learn ballet at the age of six.
That's not the case......
Although her father owned a company, he was a drunkard, and the girl was their third child, and there were several children in the family...... When there are many children, it is not uncommon, so they beat their own children violently.
It was her father's, then her mother, and then she said, I was very close to my mother, I liked my mother's values, her humor and her independence...... In fact, she later spit out a truth, and her mother was also very good at beating her child. When she was a child, her mother often subjected her to corporal punishment, and spanking and whipping were commonplace. One day, when she came home from school, she ran to drink soup before she had changed her student uniform, and accidentally spilled the soup and stained her clothes. At this time, her mother was ironing her clothes, and when she saw little Charlize in trouble, her mother picked up the metal hanger next to her and beat her, so that after many days, she still had blood bruises and scars on her legs.
Some people don't understand, why are you still close to your mother...... Let's look at Li Mo, compared to what happened to Li Mo in her previous life, her experience is just a small thing, a piece of cake, but what should I do if my parents are gone.
Li Mo's hometown, the environment at that time, and the situation of the Li family caused Li Mo's parents to be violently educated, and the situation in some remote areas of South Africa was also worse. It's all like this, and there's no resentment or hatred.
This kind of domestic violence education led to her having the same personality as Li Mo when she was a child, super unconfident, introverted, plus her bad dress, she didn't have many classmates who could have fun at school, and even she later said that I liked a lot of boys, but not a boyfriend.
Another thing that brought her closer to her mother was a later incident.
In 91, her father got drunk again, beat the child at home, and threatened to kill the child, but her mother could not bear it anymore and shot her husband. The court acquitted her mother of self-defence. After this incident, the girl could no longer go to high school, so she asked her mother to send her mother to Milan to work as a model. Later, she moved to the United States to continue studying ballet, but because she injured her knee when she was 14 years old, coupled with the cold family and the lack of good treatment, the doctor diagnosed that she could no longer practice ballet with this knee, so she embarked on the road of professional modeling.
But at this time, her fate began to reverse, once, she needed money to pay the rent, and she only had a check left by her mother in hand, and the bank employee told her that people who did not open an account in the bank could not cash the check, and the two argued, and happened to be seen by an acting economist, who was attracted to her at a glance and immediately invited her to join his economic company. Soon, a beautiful vase appeared on the big screen in Hollywood......
What Martin is talking about is the situation in her family, and domestic violence.
Domestic violence is also present in the United States, but most people hate it.
After Li Mo listened, he nodded and said, "Martin, your family Tina called and told Tina about her situation." ”
Martin went to call Tina.
I have to shout Tina, if Taylor comes, with Taylor's character, I will have to quarrel, Li Mo doesn't need to get to the end, and everyone will break up unhappily.
Li Mo opened his large safe, took out a checkbook from it, wrote a check, and said, "It's not easy for you to raise your daughter so big, this is compensation for you." ”
"Why give me money?" the girl's mother looked at the amount on the check and asked in surprise, for Li Mo, it didn't matter, but for her, even if it was her family, it was not a small amount.
"You'll find out in a moment. Li Mo continued to code words on the computer.
"Mom, don't sell me. ”
Normally, with her IQ and age, she would not say such a thing, but her family is in Africa, even though it is in South Africa, it is also Africa, and anything can happen.
Li Mo turned his head and said, "Charlize, I know why I sent someone to find you in all such a difficult way, because I have a friend who went to South Africa and accidentally saw you, heard about you, and brought me a picture of you. I think you have a unique temperament, and it just so happens that the company is planning to train a few new people to enter Hollywood...... Does Hollywood know?"
"Know, American movies. ”
"That's fine, I've signed a few new people, both men and women, so I thought of you, so I sent Martin to South Africa to find you. ”
This is also the excuse that Li Mo said to Martin, but he gave few clues, and he was in South Africa, which made Martin miserable. But if you find it, it's easy to confirm, name, age, approximate month and day of birth, race, as well as road construction company, city name, home in a remote suburb, like drinking, domestic violence, learning ballet, that is, she is alone.
"Your family has some violence, I am Chinese, in this regard, I will not be like many people in the United States, calculating, but it is very bad for your growth path, I don't want the artists that my company focuses on cultivating, there will be any psychological shadows in the future, and even personality distortions." The name of the company is Angel Economist Company, and I also hope that the artists and models under the company's name will live like angels. Even the company contract has a strict clause that no one of the three points must be exposed, whether it is a catwalk or a movie. Because it is an angel, there are kind angels, there are gentle angels, and there are beautiful angels, but there are no angels who strip naked for people to see. ”
Charlize finally covered his mouth and laughed.
However, her mother's face was even more soothing, although Li Mo unceremoniously pointed out her family's domestic violence, but it was also the truth. However, Li Mo said later that he didn't even let the dew point when making movies, which shows the protection of artists.
Tina came, looking at Charlize's mother with a little annoyance.
Li Mo continued, "Therefore, I want you to be Tina's adopted daughter. ”
"Boss, this can't be done, I'm still single, I'm busy and crazy, where can I take care of a daughter?"
"Tina, do you want you to take care of it, I need a name. ”
"Lee, I don't agree. Charlize's mother screamed too.
"I'm not depriving you of custody, I just need a name to keep her in the United States and China for a better education. ”
"China?"
"There are good schools in China, with my identity, can my younger brothers and sisters in my family not go to the best school?" Li Mo took out a photo: "There are two of my younger siblings, one sister, and one sister in my hometown, and the other three are my godmother...... The godmother's daughter, and two of my aunt's children, both of whom received the best education in the magic capital, may also come to the United States in the future to receive a good education. In your house, can you give your daughter these educations?"
Li Mo pushed the check to her again: "This is compensation for you, in addition, you can also come to see her from time to time, whether you come to the United States from South Africa or come to China, you need a lot of travel expenses, which is why I wrote you a check." I want a name, a reason to settle for U.S. citizenship, not to deprive you of custody, she is still your daughter. As Tina said, she's so busy that she has time to take care of your daughter?"
"Who's going to take care of my daughter?"
"Hehe, you think too much, do you think the company under my name, which small company are you with your husband? But I don't force you, you think about it, and, come with me. ”
Li Mo took the mother and daughter to the dressing room, but knocked on the door and said, "The people inside listened, I'm going in, and those who are not dressed hurry up and get dressed." ”
After a while, a large group of fancy models opened the door, giggling, and Li Mo's words made them ashamed and funny. Zhang Ting also looked at this little girl curiously, Li Mo brought the mother and daughter in, first called the hairstylist, the first step was to sort out the hair that was trampling, and after the hair was done, under the guidance of Li Mo, she made up and put on beautiful new clothes.
"Martin, look, how's it going?"
"Boss, you really have the ability to turn decay into magic. ”
"Martin, the main thing is that you don't understand this aspect, if Yili's stylist passes, you can see her natural beauty at a glance. ”
Charlize looked at herself in the mirror, also a little happy, she turned her head and asked, "Lee, can I learn ballet while modeling?"
Still studying ballet?
But this is someone else's interest, and she has no right to interfere, so Li Mo tried hard to think of some reasons that could convince her......
