Although Lance didn't admit it, too much information had been leaked inside and outside of his words, which was enough to make reporters, including Brian, excited.

Brian sensitively sniffed out the anomaly, first, why the dinner promised at the premiere of "The Day After Tomorrow" had not been fulfilled until now; second, the source of the dinner was actually Lance's absence from the premiere of "King Arthur", and it must have been brought up by Kayla that this topic would become the protagonist; Third, after Lance and Kayla separated, Lance actually went to Malibu to participate in the pie, if the date went well, shouldn't he continue to stay together, or go home separately? Also, Lance can clearly see signs of a hangover today, is it just a hangover, or is it because he is in a low mood?

Lance is still the same Lance, always strictly guarded and unpretentious, but due to his poor state, both the tone and the words are not as rigorous as usual, just the slightest flaw, which is enough for reporters with a wolfdog's sense of smell.

Brian knew he could get a shot at Kayla for more information; At the same time, you can also find out more insider stories from the "King Arthur" and "The Day After Tomorrow" crews...... Thinking of this, Brian suddenly noticed an important point: the box office of "King Arthur" is a mess right now, and the producer of this work is Jerry Bruckheimer...... Brian realizes that he seems to have found something terrible.

"So, Lance, what the hell are you doing with Kayla after you and Kayla stay in the hotel for four hours?" Brian still didn't give up, and finally caught Lance's handle, and it was such exciting news, he would never give up lightly.

Lance's eyes narrowed slightly, and the aura of danger spread again, but Brian was not timid at all. Straight into Lance's gaze, the confrontation burst into sparks at that moment, and Brian didn't miss a trace of chagrin in Lance's eyes, "If I say we're chatting, talking about movies, about acting, sharing each other's opinions and opinions. Would you believe it? ”

Annoyed, why is Lance annoyed? Could it be because of the relentless pursuit of journalists? It shouldn't be possible, Lance is a cunning guy, even at the premiere of "Troy", he is also at ease in the face of the teaming up of Brad Pitt and George Clooney; So...... Is it because of irritation? Could it be that Lance and Kayla stayed at the hotel for four hours and really didn't succeed?

Thinking of this, Brian became more and more excited, this scandal is really getting more and more interesting.

Faced with Lance's rhetorical question. The reporters around him laughed and gave the answer in this way, and then Lance shrugged his shoulders and looked helpless, "Don't act as if you care about my answer. With that, Lance took a step, and this time, the reporter did not stop him again. Instead, he watched Lance walk into the apartment building in front of him.

Brian looked back and there were at least two dozen reporters around. He ran away again, the target was naturally Keira Knightley, and today's exciting news was pinned on Kayla.

After Lance returned to the apartment, he didn't pay any attention to the reporters downstairs, and directly used his home landline phone to call back to the Montage Hotel, and Cole's voice quickly came. Lance said simply, "I'm home, and I'm going according to plan." ”

He's already on plan here, but Kayla and Jerry are factors that can't be controlled, so it's up to Dorothy next. How does she skillfully release the wind, and how does she guide the direction of public opinion in the media...... That's where professionals come in.

Cole nodded to Dorothy, who was sitting across from her, "That's good, you can rest for a few hours first." "It's close to noon and Lance will only have to sleep for an hour or two at most, and then he'll have to get up to get ready for tonight's shoot." By the way, the information you left here ......"

Cole looked at Percy and Edgar, who were sorting out the information, and Lance just left with a "this is a gift for you" and left, without further explanation.

"You can give Frank a concept art of Sin City, and then I'll take the time to shoot a three-minute dail, and explain to him in detail my creative philosophy, from the shot table to the core idea." Lance briefly explained the situation, "If you still don't understand, you can ask Percy, we were busy all night last night. ”

Cole was completely stunned, and he was just wondering if it would be ...... Won't it ...... The result was really what he envisioned. Now, Lance has given him the scripts for "City of God" and "The Day After Tomorrow"; and told him about the core of the idea of "Sin City"; Then I gave him the storyboard concept art...... If he still fails to take the "Sin City" project down, his agent will be truly derelict in his duties.

Cole felt a surge in his heart, but at the same time felt a huge pressure on his shoulders, Lance had done his best, so whether he could beat Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino, and whether he could convince Frank Miller, all the weight was carried on Cole's shoulders.

"I see." Cole just said such a simple sentence, because Cole knew that rhetoric was no match for actual action, and winning the rights to adapt "Sin City" was the best reward. If you can't take it off...... He will stifle this "if" at the stage of possibility.

Cole was about to hang up when Percy's voice came, "Wait. Cole looked up, and Percy strode over and took the receiver, "Lance, you're going to have a call for Ian." ”

Lance's brain paused for about half a second before he reacted, "yes, I'll fight now." After saying that, he hung up the phone. Percy had tried to persuade Lance to hurry up and rest, and he would call him to wake him up when the time was up, but the words got stuck in his throat, and he could only put the earpiece back in silence and turned to look at Cole and Dorothy, "Now, it's our turn to get up and running." ”

With only a few hours left until today's deadline, things have to be speeded up.

Lance shrank into the sofa, last night was not only an all-nighter, but also experienced physical and mental work, and now the brain does feel a little tired, and the gesture he made in front of the reporter just now is not all a performance. However, thinking that things are back on track, I feel more surging excitement while being tired, and if I can win the "Sin City" smoothly, this is definitely gratifying for the development of Chaos Pictures.

The premise is that Chaos Pictures has enough money to complete the filming of Sin City.

"Ian, are you going to answer the phone right now?" After the phone was answered, Lance skipped all the politeness and went straight to the point. However, unlike facing Cole or Dorothy, Lance seemed very relaxed at this time, and that familiarity and intimacy were the softness after removing all the masks.

"Hehe, every time I hear you talk like this, I know I'm busy." Ian teased without embarrassment, and with a smile on his face, he could tell that he was in a good mood.

"I'm chasing a project that may cost 30 million, and I haven't budgeted for it yet, so it's possible to reach 40 million." Lance briefly explained the situation.

"Forty million?" Ian frowned with a mouth full of helplessness, "Lancelot, you must be disgusted that my work has been too easy lately. There was a hint of pampering and helplessness in the joking words, "So, are you planning to cooperate with a large company, or do you want to invest in filming yourself?" ”

"If you can, of course, it's best to shoot yourself." Lance was not polite either. "Sin City" is a production that requires a high degree of control, and such a stylized shot is a serious challenge for any major studio, and they won't agree to it - and even if they do, Lance doesn't want them to be around and question it all the time.

Ian muttered, "When will the cost budget come out?" Ian didn't ask about the filming of "Murder with a Knife", let alone question whether Lance was greedy enough to chew on, or even ask what the project Lance wanted to invest in, but just took the matter lightly.

"Not so fast, and I've been trying to win the project lately." Lance chuckled.

Ian pursed the corners of his lips and nodded, "So, you also know that this is a huge amount of money. The whole project of "The Day After Tomorrow" made Chaos Pictures reap a profit of 44 million - this is pre-tax income, and now, Lance opens his mouth to ask for 40 million in one breath, which is almost an impossible task for Chaos Pictures, unless "Killing with a Knife" can usher in a box office explosion after its release, but Lance will call now, which means that he may not be able to wait for the release of "Killing with a Knife" - at least not for the box office dividends to be credited.

Lance chuckled dryly twice, but didn't reply. Ian smiled dumbly, "I'll go back to Los Angeles the day after tomorrow, if you're not in a hurry, let's talk directly." You'd better sort out the project plan, and I'll do an assessment to see how to plan it properly. ”

"No problem!" Lance's purpose is not to solve the problem, but to let Ian know about the problem, and Ian will take care of the rest.

"Hurry up and go to bed, your voice sounds terrible." Although Lance didn't say anything, Ian could hear Lance's exhaustion in his voice, "Have you had lunch?" ”

"Ian, when did you become like Theo?" Lance closed his eyes tiredly and said with a smile and a smile.

Ian shook his head, "You also know that Theo will be worried, and if Theo knows, I will not be able to be talked about." You remember to eat a little bit to pad your stomach, then go to bed, get up and take a hot shower, and then go to work. After a bunch of rambling explanations, Ian rubbed his temples in frustration, "God, I really don't sound sexy/sensual at all right now, and it ruins my image." After saying that, Ian shuddered and shook his head in disgust, "I'm hanging." ”

Lance couldn't help but say, "Get out!" (To be continued.) )
