40. Everyone has a different path 13.

The sun is shining in Los Angeles in August, but the guests of a famous Italian restaurant still feel like two guests at a table in the corner.

The guests and waiters in the dining room looked at them brightly or vaguely, and saw that the younger of the two of them, who had blonde and half-long hair, did not know what to say, and sighed loudly, which made people very curious. As for the other, he was listening intently to his companion, and he also had a deep and dazzling countenance, and when those blue eyes looked at him, it made people both men and women want to indulge in that vast ocean.

However, instead of watching two handsome guys with their own merits, they are more curious about how they met, two stars who don't seem to be in tune, and they haven't filmed together? And it also looks intimate.

After Leonardo DiCaprio finished explaining the reason why he came to Gu Qing, he summed it up and said: "So, I thought of you who have a psychiatrist's license, and I didn't bother you, right?" He has been very troubled recently, and the main reason is the investment of 200 million US dollars in "Titanic", the release date of this huge investment movie has been postponed again and again.

Gu Qing smiled and said, "Not at all, believe me." Because of the recent movie releases, exhibitions, etc., David is working hard to prepare a dress for him, thanks to the influence of his manager Douglas Ford. Anyway, as a result, David's design ** exploded, and others were happy to take care of Gu Qing's clothes. It has to be said that Leonardo DiCaprio's phone call rescued him.

Leonardo DiCaprio heard this and said, "Great, I'll invite you for this meal, just how about I pay you for the psychological counseling?" ”

Gu Qing praised him from the bottom of his heart, "Leo, you are much cuter than James." You know, when he called me as a psychiatrist, instead of paying me a dollar, I paid him $60 million. ”

Leonardo DiCaprio was surprised: "What's going on? ”

"It should be said that it is an investment in "Titanic".

"It's you!" Seeing Gu Qing's puzzled expression, Leonardo DiCaprio hurriedly explained, "At that time, I also heard some rumors from my agent, saying that the crew production fee was not enough, but after a few days, it was said that the investor had written a huge check to come in, but I didn't expect it to be you." Seriously, we do feel that James is in a better mood in the first few days since you came, you know. ”

Gu Qing understood this, "James is sometimes quite arrogant. ”

Leonardo DiCaprio: Is ...... serious? To this day, he still doesn't want to remember the devastation he suffered during the filming of "Titanic"! He looked at Gu Qing's sincere and conniving expression, and wanted to hold his shoulder and shake it, "Hey, brother, where is the tsundere?" That's brutality! But he also just thinks that it is on the outside, and it is necessary to pay attention to the image.

Besides, he is not as close as Gu Qing and James Cameron, just listen to this. But it's strange to say, after such an episode, he is not so irritable, think about it, probably because the person sitting in front of him is not worried about his 60 million dollars, why is he so worried about it when he is just a leading actor.

To put it bluntly, it's he who finds the balance.

Leonardo DiCaprio, who found the cushion on his back, became relaxed, he was not such a thoughtful person, and even his smile became brighter than the sun outside.

Knowing that Leonardo DiCaprio had not picked up the film in the second half of the year, and the itinerary was very easy, Gu Qing thought for a while and said, "Leo, my friend, I have a mentionβ€”"

…… In September, when Leonardo DiCaprio was in the crowded EX Expo, he recalled that as a scumbag, why did he agree to come to the expo where the top students gathered to "cultivate sentiment, broaden horizons, and increase knowledge←" Gu Qingyu, although he didn't want to admit it, he was really bewitched at that time, or by the beauty of his good friend.

The other party just looked at him with expectant eyes, and all the blue eyes reflected in them were you, and even if they refused, they couldn't say anything, and then nodded in agreement unconsciously. Fortunately, he wittily asked if he could bring another friend, otherwise he would be embarrassed now.

Tobey Maguire looked around curiously.

#ε₯½εŸΊε‹, a lifetime of push#

The EX Industry Expo is a gathering of media.

Straker Industries once changed its name and surname, and many people are very interested in the actual helm of EX Industries today, of course, there are good and fearful and more hateful people here. This was the first exposition to be held after the change of dynasty, and the rumored big capitalists would appear at the opening ceremony.

This is for Charles Xavier, the big capitalist.

In addition, some of them are going to Eric Hollywood star Xavier, this newcomer who doesn't look like a Hollywood newcomer at all, not only does his acting skills not look like it, but he can't even say that he is lucky, and his attention is not like it. Some time ago, he was photographed having an intimate lunch with Leonardo DiCaprio, the darling of the new generation of Hollywood, and many people are paying attention to how the two of them met.

Naturally, there are also those who pay attention to science.

The much-anticipated opening ceremony of the EX Industry Expo has officially begun.

Sure enough, Charles Xavier, the big capitalist, the current helmsman of EX Industries, appeared on the center stage, and there was a moment of silence in the exhibition hall, and then there was more applause than before.

Charles Xavier, the big capitalist, swept around very intimidatingly, and the venue soon fell silent, he spoke slowly, his voice was low but penetrating, "Technology can achieve a better life, a healthier body, technology makes human beings full of infinite possibilities, this is the first time in human history that world peace can be achieved." ”

"It's not about me, it's not about you, it's about inheritance, what we leave for future generations. Therefore, starting next year, the best talents from different countries and companies around the world will provide their resources, share their common vision, and create a better future. It's not about us, so I would like to say that welcome to the EX Industrial Expo. ”

The big capitalist only stayed on stage for less than five minutes, but the atmosphere at the scene seemed to be ignited.

By the time Eric Xavier came out to give a lecture, the atmosphere in the exhibition hall was at its peak.

Gu Qing highlighted EX Industries' genetic research project, which for the first time proposed the feasibility of deciphering the genetic chain of cancer in the next five years, as well as the possibility of curing almost all cancers on the planet in the next ten years.

Leonardo DiCaprio's thoughtful expression caught the attention of his good friend Toby Maguire, who had come to accompany him, after listening to his friend's report, and he asked, "Do you understand?" ”

The incredulity in Toby Maguire's tone hurt the heart of Leonardo DiCaprio, who raised his eyebrows and squinted, "Didn't Eric say that genetically modified cells would be used to make it possible to cure cancer in ten years?" ”

Tobey Maguire's eyes widened: "You're really listening!" ”

Leonardo DiCaprio laughed angrily and reached out to smack Tobey Maguire, "Of course I listened carefully. "I'm more serious than when I was in school, and when I think about him, I think he's still quite hardworking.

"Click!" A reporter not far away took a picture of the scene.

The opening ceremony of the EX Industry Expo was an unprecedented success, and the public opinion aroused was also quite enthusiastic.

"Charles Xavier, the current helmsman of EX Industries, appeared at the opening ceremony, intended to pass on"

Straker Industries was originally the leading industrial conglomerate in the United States, and now someone has replaced this behemoth, so it is easy to associate a question, how much is such a person's net worth? Why hasn't it ever been in public or even on the Fox rich list before? What is his daily life like?

The public is very interested in this, not to mention the big capitalist Xavier has made the media reporters all over the United States suffocate in a low-key manner, and they have not even taken a frontal photo of their family. Now that there is an opportunity to be ashamed, how can you let it go?

Even though the shots weren't very clear under the stage lights, it was enough!

The coverage of the New York newspapers is just the beginning, and how can the top newspapers and magazines in the United States let go of such a blockbuster news, not to mention that the news focus is far more than that.

"EX Industries Genius Researcher Eric Xavier Claims EX Industries Will Cure All Cancers in the Next Decade"

Eric Xavier, Hollywood's Rising Star orEX Industrial Genius Fellow

"Leonardo DiCaprio appeared at the opening ceremony of the EX Industrial Expo, and he had a deep relationship with Eric Xavier? Digging deep into the road of friendship between the two》

"EX Industry spends 50 million US dollars to make a promotional video, is there another mystery"

γ€Šβ€¦β€¦γ€‹

What will push this storm of public opinion to a higher tide again is not the research on the EX industrial gene project proposed by Gu Qing at the opening ceremony of the EX Industrial Expo, which is published in the internationally renowned comprehensive academic journal of natural sciences - Science magazine in the United States, and will do an album; Nor is it a brainstorming triggered by experts and professors gathering together in TV interviews...... Rather, it was a report in the National Inquirer, a well-known or notorious gossip newspaper in the United States:

"Charles Xavier, the helmsman of EX Industries, and Eric Xavier, the star of Hollywood, are the real relationship father and son? 》

Eric Xavier, the billionaire's heir? 》

On the front page, the National Enquire presented a variety of evidence. First of all, they provided a not very clear photo of Charles Xavier, a big capitalist, and a very clear frontal photo of Eric Xavier, and scientifically compared the facial features of the two, and the two were more than seventy percent similar;

If this point can be refuted by "there are many people in the world who look alike, and we can't just conclude that people are father and son or something", then the "National Enquirer" said:

Eric Xavier, a former genius researcher at Straker Industries and now EX Industries, is a participant in the group's most valued projects, and it can be seen that he is in charge. With so much material, financial, and human resources invested in the project, Eric Xavier still has the time and interest to make movies?

Which of the top 500 companies in the world can do it? But if Charles Xavier is his biological father, then he will be able to solve it as soon as he is the heir to the chaebol, then he is qualified.

In addition, EX Industries spent 50 million US dollars last year to shoot a so-called promotional video, which caused a wave of discussion at the time, and everyone thought that EX Industries was stupid and had a lot of money. But we also know that the starring role of this "promotional film" is Eric Xavier, can we think that EX Industries spends a lot of money on the interests of the heir?

In addition, the "National Enquirer" also published Gu Qing's acceptance speech at the Golden Globe Awards ceremony word for word, focusing on the aforementioned elders and the last "Mommy". As we all know, he is an orphan, if he is looking for his parents, why only say "Mommy" instead of his parents. Looking at this matter now, it is very worth pondering.

More importantly, EX Industrial EX is clearly an acronym for Erik and Xavier.

As soon as this issue of the "National Inquirer" came out, it immediately attracted the attention of the broad masses of the people, and it was immediately sold out of stock. At first glance, the logic laid out by the National Enquirer is really flawless, which makes most people who read this report feel at once "it really is like this".

So it's like dropping a primordial-bomb on the moment that has been ignited with a boom, and it all explodes.

National Spotlight.

What does the general public think about how Eric Xavier went from being the son of a billionaire to an orphanage? After more than 20 years, how was he found by his biological father? Is there any connection between the biological mother's "whereabouts unknown" and the events of that year? And what about the biological father's assets? And so on, and so on, and so on, and so

Everyone has a good brain, what rich heir was kidnapped, and the heir was reduced to an orphanage; What biological mother and son can't bear the whereabouts of their beloved son, and they leave the rich man in anger; There are no more family infighting, rich family grievances, the more bloody the public, the more they like it.

EX Industries did not have a relevant spokesman to come out to refute the rumors, or take the "National Enquirer" to court or something, this is a tacit acquiescence, right?

The general public was tickled by the boots, which led to the premiere of "L.A. Confidential" - a good opportunity to finally catch one of the parties involved - and the swarm of media reporters not only blocked the Chinese theater, but also formed a long queue, and those who didn't know thought they were fans who had bought tickets. Well, there are more fans who come to watch the movie (and more likely the people).

Warner's producers didn't show it on their faces, and they smiled in their hearts, although they knew that a large part of these media were going to Gu Qing, but could they still leave aside the movie "Los Angeles Confidential" when they reported it? What's more, Warners is very confident in the movie "L.A. Confidential", and they are ready to use this movie to hit the Oscars next year, but as a producer, they have never disliked the box office.

"It's coming! Here it comes! ”

"Eric! Eric! ”

The reporters turned around in unison, and when they saw Douglas Ford who was nearly two meters in front of them, they all froze, and they parted like Moses dividing the sea, allowing Gu Qing, who was completely hidden behind the agent, to walk on the red carpet. The flashing lights around for a while, and then all kinds of problems came flooding in.

Facing the microphones and questions thrown from all directions, Gu Qing simply stood and put on a posture ready to answer questions. And the reporters have already prepared the possible reactions that he may play Tai Chi, go around the bend, etc., but they never expected that people are very honest. For example, the issue that journalists are most concerned about -

Reporter: "Eric, what is your relationship with Charles Xavier, the owner of EX Industries?" ”

Gu Qing thought about it and said, "He is my father who is outcast. ”

Journalists: "......" didn't care whether he was sick or not at this time, but he actually admitted it! Admit it! Admit it! Now there's news to write about! BIG NEWS!

Reporter: "Eric, what do you think of the "promotional video" that EX Industries made at 50 million dollars? ”

Gu Qing's eyes became subtle, he opened his mouth, and the reporters waited with bated breath for an answer, "Probably rich and capricious." ”

Journalists: "......" is rich and capricious! Rich and capricious! Rich and capricious! Mom, I want to hate the rich!

Reporter: "Eric, do you have anything to say about the many speculations from the outside world?" ”

Gu Qing originally looked stern and serious, although what he said was not strict, but at this time, the reporters who met him face-to-face or saw his side face could feel that his whole person lit up at this moment, especially the blue eyes like a clear blue sea, as if they could drown people in it, which made the reporters facing him lose their minds for a while, and they were all thinking in their hearts, "It's too foul!" So much so that he almost missed what Gu Qing was going to say.

"Thank you all for your attention, I'm so glad I found my mommy." When he said the previous sentence, Gu Qing smiled brightly, but the conversation changed, "There are still mommy who are not happy, and I will probably talk to the American media company that owns the "National Enquirer" about the acquisition." Well, that's it. "There are large black lilies blooming in the back.

Journalists: "......"

When the reporters were stunned, Gu Qing had already continued to walk forward, and when he was far away, a female reporter covered her face with her hands: "So handsome!" "Echo the chorus one after another.

The male reporters looked at each other, and they didn't admit that they were really flashed by the words of the domineering president just now.

The premiere of "L.A. Confidential" was a great success, just as the producer thought in advance, the front page headlines of the next day were occupied by Gu Qing and "L.A. Confidential". After the film critics gave high praise to the film reviews, it once again drove the attention of "Los Angeles Confidential", and for a while, among the movies released in September, there was no movie that could be compared with "Los Angeles Confidential".

As a result of this effect, $25 million was earned in 1,800 movie theaters in the first three days, with an average of nearly $140,000 per theater, which is definitely a very impressive achievement. What makes Warner even happier is that this kind of high box office is not a flash in the pan, although it is blessed by the viewing effect brought by Gu Qing, it still achieved a good result of 24 million next week, which makes many people who secretly want to watch the box office drop of "Los Angeles Confidential" really fall through their glasses.

What does this mean, it shows that this is really a good movie with excellent quality.

The movie tells the story of Los Angeles in the 50s and 60s, how three police detectives with different backgrounds and codes of conduct expose a shady case, and how justice triumphs over evil and moles. The suspenseful and thrilling plot, the story in one go, the wonderful group portrait acting, and the profound and shocking theme discussion make it an outstanding representative of film noir.

The acting skills of the three leading actors in the film, Kevin Spacey, Russell Crowe and Gu Qing, have been praised almost unably, and the performance of Kim Basinger, the heroine who is a little popular in Katakusa, has also received more recognition. Although it's only September, many media outlets have already listed the film as a seeding candidate for this year's Oscars.

And Gu Qing, who has been upgraded to #National Good Son# and completed the triple jump of status in the entertainment industry, is reuniting with his "Mommy" at the moment......
