Chapter 15: Atari's Countdown
Emmanuel Bea's natural beauty and holiness are combined with Caesar's makeup from 2015, then supplemented by the "angel wings" specially made of top-quality goose feathers with a wingspan of nearly two meters, and finally after the effect of the white robe, a living angel appears in the audition room.
When Columbia's current CEO, Joseph Baker, arrived at the audition room after receiving the notice, Caesar had already led Bea into the changing room, so he didn't see Bea before she changed into the character's costume.
When Caesar led the blushing Bea out of the changing room, Joseph was instantly conquered by the angel's appearance.
The first impression of human beings on another person is very important, and Caesar's first impression of Bea is the image of an angel in the movie of his previous life, so he has no shame in his life and even coaxes and deceives to keep Bea by his side.
Joseph's first impression of Bea was a more beautiful angel costume than in the movie in his previous life, and his instant feeling was "An angel has arrived!" ”
The other people in the room, because they had seen Bea before she changed her clothes, were not as shocked and amazed as Joseph.
Joseph looked at Bea, then at Caesar, and finally at the hands they were holding together, and then lowered his head and sighed deeply with a sentiment full of excessive regret that everyone could hear.
"Poof!"
Before the surrounding Colombian employees could feel embarrassed by the leader's rude behavior, Caesar couldn't help but laugh.
Joseph looked up and saw Caesar holding Bea with one hand, raising his outstretched index finger and shaking it from side to side, making the classic Bruce Lee-style "no, no, no" gesture.
Seeing this Caesar action, Joseph also laughed.
The employees did not want it, but felt that the inevitable "saber rattling" did not happen.
This is also the most common misunderstanding that occurs when there are different statuses and realms.
Who was Joseph Baker? The CEO of one of the seven major Hollywood film company giants, what kind of beauty has not been seen?
Indeed, for Joseph, apart from the aging Audrey Hepburn, Bea was the most beautiful of the women he had ever seen. That doesn't mean he's going to fight the fastest money-making guy in all of North America for Bea or any beautiful woman.
The people who can achieve this Joseph's position are people who can give up something at any time.
Many people think that success is perseverance and hard work, which is true, but it is not comprehensive.
The greater the success a person has, the more he gives up for it. For example, family, friendship, love, or the bottom limit, or even human nature.
Think as rationally as possible, only weigh the pros and cons when encountering problems, and always calculate the pay and benefits...... This is the secret of politicians and these business elites being able to stand at the top of the pyramid.
Caesar shook his finger and smiled as he made "You're late!" You deserve to sigh! is also because he knows the "problem" of these people.
This is a gesture of Caesar, "I don't care if I sigh without pain or itching, don't treat me as a second ancestor who is messing around because I am young." I can afford to joke. ”
It was a silent temptation, and Joseph casually confirmed Caesar's mind in this way.
After all, Caesar was the fastest money-maker in the last fiscal year by Fortune magazine.
Although the United States does not have the phrase "a young man has great ambition and great misfortune," there is still the same truth.
After all, he is only thirteen years old, even if he is as talented as this, no one can be sure whether Caesar has "swelled", has he begun to "overflow"?
Is it because of the huge success in a short period of time that it has entered the rebellious period of "doing it in advance"?
Of course, although it was a temptation, the appreciation for Bea was real.
Joseph was very satisfied with Caesar's reaction, what he didn't know was that Caesar had never eaten pork or at least heard a pig hum after all. Joseph's little ninety-nine, Caesar quickly reacted.
So the two of them tacitly sat down in a pleasant atmosphere, and soon entered the negotiation stage.
Caesar's conditions are very simple, use the most classic angel image to praise the red Bea, so that more people can appreciate Bea's "angel advent style", so the publicity must spare no effort, and then there can be no show, kiss scene, bed scene, except for these two unchangeable, the other qiē can be discussed.
Originally, Bea was not very proficient in English with an accent, but because Caesar retained the premise that Angel in the previous movie couldn't speak human language, it became no problem.
Since both sides have strong intentions to cooperate, and they are both sincere, at least for now...... Therefore, after the lawyers of both parties confirmed the content of the contract, the two quickly signed the contract.
In the car returning, Emmanuel Bea looked at Caesar with a somewhat complicated feeling.
She didn't want to see her relationship with Caesar as a deal, but she did have been booked by him, and Caesar could be counted as having fulfilled his obligations first.
Bea was excited to play the angel, but when facing Caesar, the indebtedness and gratitude were intertwined with a touch of love, which completely suppressed her excitement.
When he returned to the mansion in Beverly Hills, while the family had not yet been alarmed, Bea couldn't help but suddenly possess Caesar on the forehead and kiss him lightly, and ran back to his room with a red face.
Think of it as an upfront return...... She wanted to do this when she was in the car, but because the car was just an ordinary Mercedes-Benz commercial car, not the kind of extended Lincoln with partitions, and the driver was the driver of the Li family, not Caesar's exclusive driver, so she was embarrassed.
Caesar was stunned by the kiss, touched his forehead, and smiled silently at the corners of his mouth.
It looks like it's time to buy an extended business car and hire a reliable driver.
After greeting the family who had heard the news, and reporting the good news for Bea, Caesar returned to his study.
I changed my clothes and lay on the sofa to open the newspaper I hadn't had time to read in the morning. As soon as he saw the headlines, Caesar sat up with a snort.
Atari has released the latest console, the Atari 5200, which is billed as the "successor to the Atari 2600" designed to counter the more advanced Playbox.
This model is a modification of the Atari 400 and Atari 800 personal computers, and its biggest feature is jaw-dropping - it is not compatible with Atari 2600 games.
Leaving aside the other flaws of this console, the "2600 incompatible game" alone has caused a large number of buyers to cry out.
Because when Atari released the 5200, it did not give any prior warning or explanation about the incompatibility of the 2600 game.
To use a popular phrase from Caesar's previous life, it is, "Pit daddy, this is!" ”
According to the newspaper, a large number of players have protested in front of Atari's Silicon Valley headquarters, demanding an explanation from Atari. There were even individual players who began to burn the Atari 5200 console in public.
This is probably Atari's first death knell......
Seeing this news, Caesar inevitably felt a little sad about the death of a rabbit and a fox.
If you don't do it well, will FFF have this day?
