"Except for the re-installation of the part near the iron fence to ensure that there are no monitoring dead spots, and the installation of a high-voltage power grid as protection, the outdoor part has not changed much, but some soft furnishings have been added, such as a pergola in the swimming pool section and a comfortable pavilion on all sides. It's a few steps from here, just above the cliffs, and it's easy to look down from here over the crowds of the Broad Beach, and lo and behold, that's Larry. Alison is the home of the CEO of Oracle, of course, his business is all over Los Angeles, but he still lives there most often, well, it looks like someone is on the tennis court, maybe that's Larry, maybe that's his friend......"

After several considerations, Jenny finally spent 30 million to buy this mansion located in the mountains near the wide beach, although it does not have its own private beach, but is high on the top of the mountain, but because of this, this mansion covering an area of 8 acres has strong privacy, and Chris, like Chris, it occupies a whole hill alone, and compared with Chris's mansion, its advantage is that unless it is a rock climber, it is difficult to break into from the cliff, as long as you do a good job of protection, you don't have to worry about stalker breaking in, Coupled with the fact that it is located above the star-studded Broad Beach, the location is much more suitable than Christopher's, so, although it is five million more expensive and there is no beach, Jenny is quite happy with it. When Cesare returned to Los Angeles in March, he signed a contract of intent to let the renovation team move in with some appropriate changes, and after several professional inspections, Jeanne finally had her final tour before moving in - of course, before Jenny and Cesare had paid $30 million in one go to become the owners of the house.

Although the renovation project was simple and the interior furnishings were not greatly changed, but it cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, it still alarmed the CEO of the renovation company, Jamal, a contractor specializing in Beverly Hills residents. Reilly appeared in person, and his intention to take the opportunity to get in touch with Jenny was of course obvious, but Jamal behaved appropriately and his eloquent narration was very pleasant, even though Jenny had seen countless mansions and lived in Hilton's luxurious presidential suite all year round, in Jamal's clever introduction, she still couldn't help nodding his narrative frequently, and the corners of her mouth had been upturned, quite satisfied with these changes.

"Next up is your private garden, which is currently a selection of more drought-tolerant and light-loving varieties, which is a Portlandia season, and if you need a gardener, we can introduce you to the right person," Jamal seemed accustomed to this kind of wealthy business, and although he clearly put Jenny in the important list, he still did not forget to take care of Cesare, "Do you want to go over and see the tennis court?" It's a two-minute walk down the trail and you'll see the open red courts, which we've just renovated—"

"There's no need," Cesare shook his head, glancing at Jenny, "let's get into the house quickly, there's a lady here whose hands are getting sore." ”

Jenny, who was hiding under an umbrella and wearing a baseball cap, shrugged at him, but did not deny Cesare's statement, of course, as a Caucasians, she is not so prone to heat stroke, but Jenny also does not like to stay outside in the morning when the temperature is getting hotter, especially standing with several men, Caucasian and black people have more serious body odor problems, even if they are smeared with antiperspirants and cologne, once they sweat after the heat, some people's smell is still difficult to hide, and the smell of antiperspirants is simply a big killerJenny herself is fine, she has been wearing antiperspirants, and her diet is very light - Cesare is fine, not the type of body odor very strong, but Jamal and Woody and others are strong men, especially Jamal, she has gradually smelled him - which reminds her of the days when she was filming "Pirates" in the Caribbean, when she was unwell almost every day, largely because of the smoke.

"Okay, here, please, this is our security system, there are cameras at every entrance, after 30 minutes after this door is closed, if someone opens it, even if it is a card to enter, you must enter the security code, otherwise it will alert the security room in the podium. Unless it's fingerprints, we'll do a security handover with Woody in a moment, and you'll need to go to the security room to get your fingerprints. Jamal paused in front of the foyer, swiped the card to open the door as he introduced, and entered the security code, "The furnishings in the house are not too modified, it is still in the Regency Revival style, we look from the right, there is a new indoor theater system installed in the audiovisual room, and then there are two separate gyms, this one is for the lady, there is a soft floor floor, a mirrored wall, a yoga ball, a steel pole, and a hanging training system - this gentleman's fitness room has sandbags, elliptical machines, and lifts, and this area is a family entertainment and leisure area." , as for the left side is the social area, the wide hall, the bar, a great place to party......"

This estate covers an area of 8 acres, about the size of a football field and a half, of course the house cannot be too small, Jeanne and Cesare live in the main building, and the security guards and housekeepers on shift live in the podium, you can imagine how much space per capita will be, in fact, 'the family has a lot of money, no more than three meals a day; The phrase "Thousands of spacious buildings, no more than three feet of sleep at night" is very applicable here, such as the formal living room, Jenny may not be able to go there several times a year, the dining table there can accommodate dozens of people at a time, the decoration has not changed, it is still so luxurious, sitting there eating salad is not only very weird, but also very bleak, there is a living room in the right leisure area, with a small dining table, a couch and a large TV, also close to the kitchen, that is the area of daily life.

In addition, the only places she will often go to are the gym, the audio-visual room and the upstairs bedroom - the second and third floors are also the places that have changed the most in the whole renovation process, except for the master bedroom on the second floor, the rest of the rooms have been converted into study rooms and reference rooms, guest rooms, etc., and the third floor has a room of the same size and decoration as the master bedroom. The large guest bedroom', just above the head of the master bedroom, and in addition, almost all the rooms were opened, and made into a very large cloakroom and powder room, and Jenny's luggage was also transported in recently, and the cloakroom was quickly half filled, and judging from the expression of Claudia who came with her, while circling the room, while estimating something, it would not be difficult to fill the cloakroom in one day as long as she wanted to.

"I don't think this room should be used for ladies, or you'll have to watch out for midnight visitors to your cloakroom." Jamal said jokingly, then crouched down and introduced Jenny, "There is a secret lock here, when opened, it will be our safe, although the front display case is also made of bulletproof glass, but really expensive jewelry, we still recommend you to keep it privately......"

After half a day of acceptance, Jeanne shook hands with Jamal and promised to introduce him to new customers, and with his departure, after entering the security center of the podium, familiarizing himself with the operation of the security system, and officially entering fingerprints, and restarting the security system, the house officially became the residence of Jenny and Cesare - all of Jenny's personal belongings were brought over, and they also made a big purchase of fresh food on the way here, and of course, Jamal also thoughtfully filled the room with valuable daily necessities, the service is as thoughtful as a five-star hotel, and even the bedding is Egyptian cotton that Jenny likes, which makes Jenny really praise Mary's carefulness.

"I knew you'd remember it." She grinned and put her hand on Mary's shoulders and said, "God knows how much I missed my bed sheets when I was in Italy - and they must have a thousand, and at this point they are still in the old hotels, and they prepared the same sheets for me at the Beijing Hilton, but not at all in Changbaishan." ”

"This means that your service is already at the level of a hotel." Claudia quipped as she opened the drawer on the dressing table and put the contents of the makeup case inside, "That's good news, if you're unemployed, you might consider applying for a job as a waiter at a Hilton hotel - but, if I want me to say it, you're so good-tempered, you can just listen to Jamal take credit for your own credit, and you still don't say a word, I thought you couldn't help but argue with him, even I almost couldn't help it-hang the training system, listen to the tone of voice when he said that word, As if that was what he could come up with. ”

Jenny couldn't help but be amused by Claudia: Jamal loves to show off, but this is also the normal feeling of people who do his job, after all, in Hollywood, the luxury house decoration industry is rich in oil and water, and often meets big fish, so the competition is very fierce, and in the case of very good service, it always takes a little off-the-ss to ensure that he has always had a job. Anyway, for Jenny, she knew who to give these thoughtful designs to - neither Cesare nor she had time to stare at the decoration, it was all Mary running, and only Mary, who had been with her, would know that she didn't like the sun and what she was doing every day.

"This is already a relatively minor problem with him, so let him just say it." Mary waved her hand and said tiredly, "Don't let me start complaining--seriously, don't let me start, you don't know how painful it is to squeeze water out of his quotation, people say that all the renovators have fallen into the eye of money, but that's not the case, at least not Jamal, he's a huge eye for money, you know, a huge black hole-"

"He's doing a good job," Claudia said, "have you heard about Stallone?" Mistakenly believe a reality TV actress - maybe it's his cannon. At the suggestion of one of my friends, I found a contractor and was cheated for more than one million, and in the end, the house was uninhabitable......"

"Oh, of course I heard, yes, you know Lindsay. Is Lohan going to have a lawsuit again? I'm also a contractor, and the renovation money that should have been given three years ago hasn't been paid yet, so I've been telling Jamal that we paid very quickly and that he should give us a discount......"

In the midst of small talk, the three women quickly cleaned up their bedrooms for Jenny, and Jenny also showed them the two guest bedrooms on the third floor, "So that you can stay with me from time to time - please, please, you must come and stay with me from time to time." ”

"I'm sorry, but I can't be free in the last few years." Claudia pointed to her already bulging abdomen and quipped, "Unless, as Jamal suggested, you convert a guest bedroom into a baby room." ”

“…… Well, I'll try. Although the decoration of the guest room is as luxurious and comfortable, Mary is also embarrassed, and reluctantly agreed, Jenny angrily punched her and said mockingly. It sounds like a chore. ”

"Actually, it's true that living on a cliff still feels terrifying." Mary defended herself seriously, "Especially since this house is huge, you know, and the population is so small, it feels somewhat-"

"It's cold." "Indeed, I feel that way, I don't think even if I had the budget, I wouldn't choose to live here, I prefer to live in Los Angeles, even though it's hotter and the air isn't as good." ”

"Yes," Mary nodded eagerly, looking like she was going to talk to Claudia about it, but she glanced at Jenny and quickly changed her tone of mind, "but it's perfect for you, you know, for us, living in a crowd makes us feel safe, but for you it may be the opposite, so this house is really your best bet, and being away from the crowds should make you feel quiet and safe." ”

"Thank you, your words made me understand that my life was not so much a failure." Jenny gave Mary an angry look, "Let's go, let's go down for lunch, Jim should be here too, right?" ”

Jim is here to install a computer in the new house - the security system is connected by Jamal and Woody's company, and Jim is responsible for the network security of the new house, after all, Da Meng has relied on this hand to get over two big enemies and reverse the situation twice, and his good at the Internet has become the signature of Da Meng, and the home network of the two family members must of course be specially protected, so as not to make any mistakes, but to be used by people to use the same tricks to bring Yin back.

Since Jenny is basically a herbivorous eater, Cesare often has to go out to eat, it seems a bit wasteful to prepare a permanent cook, and Claudia, the former cook, now has special circumstances, so Jim is also responsible for the food for this little housewarming party - the pizza brought from Los Angeles is taken out and reheated in the oven, while Jenny only eats a small bite of cheese and eats her own boiled chicken with salad, if the script goes well, the movie will start shooting in June, and she is now going on a diet again. Any little indulgence will make her regret it while training.

"So we said, this house needs a few more residents, otherwise it can start filming ghost movies directly - what a good B-grade movie theme, the cliff villa under the moonlit night, the mansion with only two people suddenly had a power outage, the heroine who was taking a bath put on a bathrobe and rushed downstairs in panic, her husband didn't know where to go, but she suddenly found that the piano downstairs was ringing by herself......" Mary lowered her voice and said ghostly, then laughed in Jenny's white eyes and joked with Jim, "You really should have moved in, Jim, J.J. said that the two rooms next to her room are for guests, and if you live here, you know-"

She raised an exaggerated eyebrow at Jim, "You're Jane's neighbor—"

In Claudia's laughter, Jenny also winked desperately at Jim and asked softly, "Jim, are you coming?" I really need someone to keep me company—"

Jim made a snorting motion, which caused a burst of laughter, and even Cesare sighed and shook his head, but, joke aside, it seemed that Jim did not show the slightest interest in the proposal, but was as interested as Mary, Claudia, and others, "It's a hundred kilometers from the nearest bar, and it feels like it's going to be extremely difficult to get a shot here - it's a great place for married couples, seriously, but if a bachelor lives here, he's going to go crazy sooner or later- And there's not even a beach yet, which doesn't attract hotly dressed □□ rushers! ”

In the midst of the laughter, Jenny also shook her head slightly helplessly: although she acted as if nothing happened, and could even make fun of the fact that the mansion was small and large, located on a cliff, far from the city, but in fact she was far from being so open-minded about the matter - of course, this was an inevitable and rational choice, Mary was right, after the stalker invasion and the reporter eavesdropping, living in the crowd could no longer give her any sense of security, on the contrary, she was always afraid of being invaded into the private house, Especially after the death of the journalist Shef, if it weren't for this well-guarded, fortress-like manor, she would have preferred to stay in a hotel - but when she finally moved in, Jeanne found that she didn't like to live in such an empty suburban house, she was not afraid of being far away from the crowds, it might be that the house was too big, because when she was on vacation in Italy, she and Cesare also lived on a private island, and the number of people on the whole island would not exceed three, but the house there was not very large, So she felt at ease and free when she lived. But now, living in such a mansion, she remembered the time when she went into her house, and found the Stalker invading - although the house was not so large, it was empty for her, and there was a large cloakroom, and after that incident, Jenny had never stayed in a house of similar structure, and in the cloakroom she could not have stayed for a minute had it not been for Mary and Claudia.

According to the results of the previous discussions, she and Cesare lived on the first floor alone, enjoying absolute privacy, so Jenny felt that she would feel much more at ease if someone could share the first floor with her. But the crux of the matter is that Mary, Claudia, and Jim are not the freshmen of society who were financially strapped seven or eight years ago, Jenny has always been a generous boss, and while she has become a billionaire herself, the net worth of these henchmen has skyrocketed, and now they are all millionaires, with decent and comfortable homes in Los Angeles, and, more importantly, their own private lives. It is indeed difficult for them to leave Los Angeles and live in this house that is at least an hour's drive to the city, and Mary and the others did not express such interest, among which Mary, who she can ask for the most, may have a heavier psychological shadow than her, otherwise when she opened her mouth just now, according to Mary's general reaction, she is unlikely to refuse......

Because of the prenatal check-up, Claudia left first after lunch, but Judy quickly came to fill the vacancy - while Jim was installing the computer and debugging them one by one, Judy and Mary discussed the details of the wedding with the fiancé: if according to Cesare's original plan, they would just hold a private ceremony, and they would not even have to have dresses, rings, or anything, and let Mary or Judy register online, obtain the priesthood, and take the oath casually in the presence of the municipal personnel to complete the wedding, All this does not need to be known to the outside world at all. However, due to a fuss from the Los Angeles County Attorney's Office, this idea of course came to naught, and there are too many things related to celebrity weddings.

"Wedding dress." "That's the first thing we need to think about," Judy declared. ”

A thick picture album was then taken out of her carry-on bag and placed in front of Jenny, "Verawang is willing to fully sponsor the drinks for the wedding reception, as long as you adopt their design - of course, there must be a photo published." ”

"This is Valentino's manuscript, they don't have too many preferential conditions, they are more playing the emotional card, you know, they did help us some time ago, and they also have brand advantages after all, they have contributed wedding dresses to too many royal weddings......"

"Dior also sent their designs, and they were willing to cover the entire cost of the wedding, as long as we signed up to become Dior's ambassadors after the contract with Valentino expired, and the conditions were very lenient, only five public events a year, of course, the remuneration was extra."

L, Gucci, Eilesaab, as long as there is a fashion brand that makes haute couture wedding dresses, there is no one who does not want to charter Jenny's wedding - in addition to the high public attention of this wedding, the sponsorship of wedding dresses also has a strong symbolic meaning, after all, industry insiders know that Jenny and Valentino's endorsement contract has ended, and the kind of in-depth cooperation that required frequent attendance at events, shooting advertisements, and magazines has also come to an end. This exemplary and almost annoying spokesperson has entered the free transfer market: when there was an appointment in the past, on the most important ceremonial occasions, Jenny must have worn Valentino's gown, even if it is private, it is often dominated by Valentino's haute couture collections, and the ready-to-wear of other brands can only slip aside at most - when she is still endorsing Valentino, this loyalty is of course annoying, but now that she is a free body, Then this trait has also made her the superstar that major brands want to sign the most. Although without this trait, brands will still compete to negotiate cooperation, but there is no doubt that Jenny's previous performance has also made them more willing to spend money on this opportunity.

It's like the conditions offered by Dior, and it seems like nothing at a glance, it's just a wedding, isn't it just that relatives and friends come to eat and drink - but this wedding also depends on who is doing it, if it's Bill. Gates' type of wedding on a private island and sending a private jet to pick up the guests can cost tens of millions of dollars for a single wedding. After all, Jenny does not have her own island, and the island rental fee, venue decoration, food and drink, guest accommodation and transportation expenses will be huge to exaggerated expenses, even if calculated at 10 million US dollars, it is enough for Dior to hire a spokesperson for six years - Charlize . Theron and Dior's endorsement contract is five million for three years, and this is also a queen-level figure.

Of course, even if it is not so extravagant, it is not uncommon for the wedding to cost more than one million, such as Jenny, a star of this level, if you really want to do a big job, the guest list of five hundred people is completely easy, as long as you count the drinks to be drunk on the eve of the wedding, the day and the next day, this is actually a big expense, champagne does not prepare a bottle of Roux for hundreds of dollars, you are embarrassed to greet people as A-R, and Hollywood practitioners are famous for their good drinks, and they spend more than one million on booze, This is not unusual, and Verawang's sponsorship can be regarded as sincere. It's Valentino, because they have been friends with Jenny for a long time, and when they need the support of the media over the years, their performance has always been very righteous, so they didn't take the route of spilling money, but worked the costume itself, and prepared a dreamlike design draft, judging from the length of the wedding dress, almost treating Jenny as a royal princess and princess.

"A mix of lace and chiffon, embellished with crystals and diamonds—tut-tut," Mary picked up the design and was reluctant to put it down, looking back and forth at the design drawings and detailed notes, "The skirt is two meters long, wow...... Jen, if you don't have this design, can you say hello to them? Let them do as they are, and I'll pay for it—I'm willing to marry Nicholas next month for the wedding dress. ”

"Looks like you don't have a very good relationship with your father." Judy joked, "He might have to sell a house to pay for it, look at the rhinestones, even if they are man-made, the labor fees are definitely not cheap, and where are you going to get married?" Westminster Abbey? Valentino's designs are a little too grand - they may assume that you're going to have a big wedding, so everything is designed for that. ”

"These dresses look like they all have this problem," Jenny flipped through the thick blueprints, "and they're all for weddings of thousands of people—the kind of weddings that will be broadcast live, and we don't need to be so extravagant, just a simple dress." ”

Judy and Mary looked at each other, and Judy then looked back at Cesare, as if counting on him to help, "We understand your feelings, but it seems a bit overkill not to provide wedding photos to the media right now, when the media is starved of the public's attention. It's hard to imagine what they're going to do when they're pushing the envelope, so it's best to do the same with most of our peers, having a relatively private wedding and then auctioning off the photos – it's good news that this part of the proceeds can be donated to your charity fund after the wedding expenses are offset - and of course, it doesn't have to be so detailed. ”

Jeanne also knew that she was a little naïve about the idea of 'having a wedding in relative seriousness', especially when it was her suggestion to do something high-profile, but that didn't change her feeling that she didn't want to really stand at the altar with Cesare, and it was probably a bit selfish to think so—to deceive everyone, to manipulate the media, to use this false relationship as a weapon against her opponents, all of which could no longer bring her the same psychological pressure as she did when she did it the first time. But the feeling of getting married a second time: not just to get a license and vaguely become married, not just to live together and become roommates who do not violate the water of the well, but to actually solemnly swear to be married in front of the altar, still makes her feel very uncomfortable, makes her feel that she is treating herself harshly, just as she forces herself to get up and exercise every exhausting night, when her companions are feasting on high-calorie food and she can only eat grass, it makes her feel very sorry for herself.

Of course, on the bright side, people are very adaptable creatures, and now she doesn't feel that daily exercise is drudgery, and she doesn't even feel like the food anymore, her whole eating system seems to have died of old age, and even boiled chicken tastes good - so, just as she is getting used to deceiving the public, maybe she will eventually accept the concept of 'getting married seriously', but at this moment, Jenny really didn't want to think about it seriously, she shook her head and put the album aside, " Let me take a closer look at these blueprints and think again. ”

“ok。” Judy didn't mean to force her to make a decision right away, she took out another album and unconsciously straightened her chest, "This is a picture sent by jewelers, but, of course, jewelry can't be free, you know, jewelry is not sponsored, it's an unspoken rule - they'll just give you a very good, very good, very good discount-"

She winked her eyes at Jenny, obviously proud of the way Jenny was treated - after all, as Judy said, good jewelry and watchmakers, especially those who often supplied the royal family, would never give away their products for free, sponsor them to celebrities, and would not have official product spokespersons, at most they would play some marginal balls, find brand ambassadors or models, but there could be no real spokesperson. For example, Van Cleef & Arpels, Cartier and other big brands, in the contempt chain ranking is much higher than the star, not like clothes, shoes and bags, need to beg the star to wear, it can be said that the star makes their money, luxury jewelry is in turn to make the star's money - in this regard, only Hermes's style can be compared with jewelry, and the face of the star is also □□, even if it is the level of Jenny, at most it is only to get some ordinary bags for free, if it is the global limited treasure leather level, then you can get a discount, It's already a very high-style performance.

And Hermes is only almost comparable to Van Cleef & Arpels and other brands, when it comes to style, it is always half a grid worse, plus Van Cleef & Arpels and other brand jewelry, after all, the unit price is very expensive, the cost is there, and it is not to shout out hundreds of thousands of dollars, but in fact, it is only necessary to pay labor costs, and the clothing money is negligible in such a large number of haute couture dresses can be compared, so that Van Cleef & Arpels can be discounted, even if it is only 9% off, which shows Jenny's status, and now according to Judy, can get one' It's a great deal, a great deal, a great deal', and it's no wonder that she was full of pride and pride from head to toe, and her straight back seemed to be silently shouting: 'To be Jennifer. Jefferson's PR, I'm so glorious. ’

"Well, well," said Jenny, calmly, acting rather calmly in the face of Judy's fanaticism, "Actually, I'm only going to ask for a tiara, and I don't want the expensive one, so even with such a discount, I don't think I can save much money......"

This time, not only Judy, but even Mary let out a shocked gasp, and said condemnatively and in a subdued voice, "Jenny! ”

“what？” Jenny spread her hands, "It's not like we really need to commemorate anything - seriously, a necklace with a wedding dress, would anyone wear it every day?" Just let it lie there and increase the risk of theft, or put it in the bank to pay the custody fee? Logically, it's stupid to spend too much on wedding jewelry—"

"Oh, I don't want to listen to you." Marie covered her ears and began to mutter meaningless words, blocking Jenny's speech, and Judy simply ignored her and turned to Cesare, who had been sitting on the side of the phone, "Listen, Cesa, about your dress and watch, this is my idea, Vacheron Constantin, what do you think......"

About celebrity weddings, from big to highlight, wedding dresses, tiaras, wedding rings, as small as wedding drinks, and even a bouquet of flowers, there will be sponsors who want to be able to plug in a foot, the difference is only the amount of budget, such as facing global clothing brands, I would rather spend a lot of money to win this wedding show, because Jenny's wedding photos will definitely spread all over the world, in terms of her influence, a sponsorship is enough to increase the brand's global popularity, even in Japan, China, Russia and other East and Central Asian regions, It is also possible to set off a wave of wealthy people to follow the trend, especially in East Asia, where local celebrities have always not been very recognized, so luxury brands are cautious when choosing local spokespersons, and many brands do not even have local spokespersons, but are more cautious when choosing spokespersons in Europe and the United States, hoping to select a star with global reputation to drive the brand's local recognition. After all, in this kind of blue ocean market, marketing can sometimes be the key to success, the simplest example, like Coach, which is basically a civilian brand of light luxury in the United States, but in China, it was once considered to be only slightly inferior to LV, and the specialty store even opened with Gucci and Armani. And Valentino is even more unlucky, due to the rampant piracy in China, the Valentino brand has been preemptively registered, brand recognition has been ruined, a large part of the consumer group feels that the style of this brand is similar to that of Bossini, Peel. Cardin and other pseudo-famous brands are almost, this is a noble brand in luxury and has nowhere to cry, 03 simply withdrew from the Chinese market, and sat back and watched the rest of the brands make a lot of money in this paradise wonderland where the growth is extremely rapid and the consumption power is changing with each passing day.

If Jenny had just crossed over, China would have been a poor and dangerous axis of evil for the American public. heart country, but after the outbreak of the financial crisis, now in 2009, China, which successfully hosted the Beijing Olympic Games, has become synonymous with a new market and a new hegemon, if the former China is only a threat to the United States in the military field, then now China, but it is really from the economic scale to make Americans feel the shock and crisis, of course, in the □□ in the ascendant at the same time, all brands seem to have rediscovered this blue ocean overnight, Luxury goods are in desperate need of a star with strong influence in China to speak for themselves, and in 08 he tried to win over Omega to boycott the Olympics. Clooney is now in a bit of an awkward situation, and "Monroe" has just achieved excellent results in China, and Jenny, who has passed the torch for the Beijing Olympics, has a lot of influence in China It is self-evident, these brands have market analysis reports - many of China's emerging rich people do not know anything about foreign pop culture, and they are indifferent, just simply superstitious about the Hollywood stars in their cognition, this perception is relatively fixed, and it is difficult to change, such as Nicholas. Cage, now he is on the way to passing the gas, but in China he is still a superstar representative, and those rising stars who have stirred up the wind and rain in recent years are much less recognizable. Jefferson should be the only actress in the past 10 years who has maintained a consistent recognition in Beijing and New York at the same time, which is also an important reason why she has been favored by brands such as Van Cleef & Arpels......

As for other catering sponsorships, most of them are discounted, mainly because Jenny's wedding has many guests, it is a good self-introduction meeting, most of the people who are willing to provide discounts are new brands, as a promotion activity, as for tables and chairs, bouquets, decorations and other services, they are willing to provide services for free, plus are bidding, want to get the exclusive right to report the magazines and media, if you go to the most generous line of sponsorship, this wedding - calculated - It can bring the newlyweds a net profit of at least 40 million, and even the house, the renovation fee and the property tax for the next few years are covered. Of course, this also means that this will be a highly public wedding, with a lot of photos going out, and there will even be a video for the website to broadcast - for such a reporting package, "People" has charged a whopping 25 million for such a reporting package.

All afternoon, Jenny was entangled in these trivial questions, annoying things, and she couldn't make up her mind about all these choices: should the bouquet be sponsored or not, and the venue should be decorated? Is the catering service sponsored or a well-known service provider that is not discounted? - Cesare had already chosen her dress and watch, and had gone into her study to work with Jim, and she had been alone with Judy and Mary for hours, but she was still stuck in the mire without an inch.

"Forget it," Finally, Jenny waved her hand in annoyance, and in one sentence summed up the limited progress made throughout the afternoon, "Don't count the decisions made today, these are all put aside for a few days, anyway, the wedding time is not so anxious." ”

Judy and Mary looked at the album for an afternoon, and both were tired, Judy held her head and sighed, grabbed her purse and stood up, "If you don't want me to be harassed to death by phone calls, please, make a decision quickly." ”

Since she has a family and no cook in the house, Judy doesn't stay for dinner, Mary has a date with Nicholas tonight, Jim doesn't have any interest in continuing to eat cold pizza, apparently wants to go back to Los Angeles to have fun, several employees and friends leave the mansion one after another, and when Jenny comes out of the bathroom, she realizes that her first dinner at the mansion seems to have to be spent with Cesare.

The sky outside the window had already darkened, and the contour lights around the house provided the light source, so that when looking out of the window, the sky outside was not pitch black, but because of this hazy light, the cloudy sky, and the deep black sea in the distance became faintly visible, Jenny stood by the window at the far end of the corridor, and looked at the sea for a while, and a gust of sea breeze blew strongly through the window on her - she shuddered, suddenly came to her senses, and ran down the stairs almost instinctively, and followed the lights and noises into the kitchen.

"Hey." She said, standing in the kitchen doorway and watching Cesare rummage through the fridge looking for ingredients.

"Hey." Cesare replied, he didn't seem to care about the sky outside the window, still expressionless, except to see Jeanne standing still, and asked, "Would you like to have dinner together?" ”

If it had been another moment—another moment that she could hardly describe and define—Jenny might have been secretly uncomfortable and embarrassed by the invitation, and its homely taste, but now, in this strange house, all she could feel was rejoicing and relaxing.

"Of course." She walked over to the pool, "I'm going to make myself a salad, would you like to have some too?" ”

"No problem, but I know you're not going to eat my pasta." Cesare said, closing the refrigerator, "Do you see the cutting board?" ”

He turned on the headlights and closed the kitchen window, the temperature in the room rose a little, the tablecloth was no longer blowing violently, Jenny turned on the faucet and broke the lettuce to rinse, Cesare pulled open a hidden cupboard, "Ah, I found it." ”

He settled the cutting board on the counter, stopped talking, and began to rhythmically chop the onions. The sound of clicks and clicks filled the room, and the sound of the water formed a warm and harmonious music, which for some reason made Jenny relax a little, perhaps because the last time she fired herself was a long, long time ago, and the sound reminded her of some family-related imagery, some distant, even blurred memories - although the memories were blurred, the emotional reflexes remained.

"You know what?" Jenny turned off the water and began to tear the lettuce, for some reason, in such an atmosphere, it was not difficult at all to let go of the boundaries of social politeness, on the contrary, it was natural and relaxed, and the words in her heart simply flowed out. "We don't seem to have talked about it all this time."

“hm？” Cesare held on to his knife and sent the onion to the pot, where the butter had melted and gave off an enticing aroma of oil.

"Wedding." Jenny threw the lettuce into the salad dehydrator, opened the fridge and found a piece of chicken, filled a pot of water and turned it on, she shook her hand, leaned sideways against the edge of the pool, and continued, "This whole fairytale marriage -- we never seem to have talked about your thoughts, like, what do you think of all this?" Does being exposed to the public eye cause you a psychological block? What does it feel like to be a celebrity? Balabala, and so on—"

She shrugged her shoulders and tilted her head to stare at Cesare, the question slipping out of her lips like water, "For example...... Does paying for your first marriage for the sake of profit make you uncomfortable, or do you really just not care at all - is marriage really just a bargaining chip for you? ”
