"Danny."

The voice on the other end of the earpiece is Daniel's most familiar voice in Hollywood and even in the United States - Kusa Damon, the agent who has disappeared inexplicably seems to have regained his freedom.

"Kusa, are you safe now?"

"Yes, I'll be in Los Angeles soon, and hopefully we'll see each other then."

"Of course, anytime, before I go to New Zealand."

When he hung up the phone, Daniel was still a little apprehensive.

Melissa could tell from the phone that it was Cusa calling.

"He's coming back?"

Daniel glanced up at Melissa, and despite his thoughts, he heard anticipation in Melissa's voice, not anxiety or any other negativity, "Uh, Melissa, I've had a great time working with you, you think you know what I mean." ”

Melissa didn't say anything further on the subject, saying only that they should wait until Kusa and Daniel met to discuss the topic.

When he was alone in the room, Daniel could easily think of Melissa's abnormal reaction, this girl was too young, she was younger than Cusa, and she did not have Cusa's talent and experience, and when it came to dealing with his affairs, even if Daniel himself had already taken on a large part of the decisive things, she would still have a strong sense of powerlessness, a feeling she had already expressed twice tonight.

Daniel has also considered before that the relationship with CAA cannot be stalemate forever, in other words, after gaining enough respect from CAA, he will still get a temporary or long-term agent through Guò Kevin, as the script system he is exposed to is getting bigger and bigger, and the relationship involved is more and more high-level and complex, the agent's means and vision are doubly important, and the advantage of a top agent is here.

As for Kusa Damon?

Daniel sighed, Melissa was right, it was better to wait until after the talk.

The publicity work of "Gladiator" is basically settled, 200 million in North America is also in sight, Daniel stays in Los Angeles, and an important job is to dub "Legally Blonde", this job has to last for two or three days, before entering MGM's recording studio, Robert Luktic, Reese Witherspoon, and his attitude towards him is completely different, and some small actions must not be used by Reese now. In fact, Robert even invited Daniel to make some suggestions for the editing of the film.

Daniel looked at him strangely, this is a director who knows the truth, and his right to speak in this movie itself is quite weak, and in the end, of course, there is no pressure to send this favor.

Of course, Daniel politely declined the invitation, the story has been influenced by him a lot, and he is not sure whether he will succeed in memory in the end, so it is better to minimize interference now, after all, he has not studied editing much.

Of course, Reese, who is close to her, would not know that she is about to become a Hollywood A-list actress - if history does not turn a corner. However, Daniel doubts that this time her first-line will be affected, after all, even if "Pretty Woman" achieves a dark horse-like achievement, she must have a big piece of the cake, but it should not have a big impact, after all, this is still a movie with her as the core.

On the third day of his call, Kusa flew to Los Angeles and went straight to Daniel's house.

Andy opened the door for him.

The two men hugged quietly before Kusa followed Andy inside.

Melissa was also present.

In addition to Fred, who has a special status, Daniel's small group is all there, including the predecessor and the current one.

Kusa was shaved, and the suit on his body was still decent, but Daniel still felt that Kusa had become different after some things, and seemed to be more profound and unpredictable.

"You're all right—"

"I'm hugging—"

Kusa and Daniel spoke together, and the two of them looked at each other before smiling and motioning for the other to speak first.

In the end, it was Daniel who opened his mouth first, after all, he is now the master, "You scared me, I thought you were either taken away by the gangsters or the FBI, Andy followed me about the fine traditions of the Damon family, I was even more worried, it's really nice to see you okay now, it's nice to see you again, Kusa." ”

"It's true that I'm assisting in the investigation, and I have nothing to do with my family's affairs, so there's nothing they can do about me," Kusa hesitated, but continued, "And the situation has changed a bit, and Damon's family shouldn't have too many problems, you may not know about this, New York is not a clean city in the first place." ”

"yes, it's not very clean, I know, Giuliani just dusted it." Daniel shrugged his shoulders, living in Brooklyn and accustomed to a lawless, gang-infested New York.

After clarifying the matter, after a few pleasantries, the topic involuntarily slipped to Cusa's work.

"What are your plans now?"

Cussa glanced at him and said thoughtfully, "I wrote to Ino Martin, and he agreed to return to CAA to continue working, so I should do my old job." ”

Daniel was a little surprised.

Kusa had caused a lot of trouble for Daniel and CAA by saying goodbye almost without saying goodbye, and the matter surrounding Daniel's temporary agent also caused a lot of turmoil, and now Kusa said lightly that Eno Martin had promised him to return to CAA, how could it not be surprising.

You must know that even Innova can't make a decision at CAA.

"I asked some people to help me coordinate it." Kusa seemed to be weighing something, and hesitated to say a few more words, "This time I went back, and I got some people, you know that Hollywood is now playing with several big conglomerates, and CAA also has people to be afraid of." ”

It sounds like Cusa's connections have been greatly expanded this time.

Daniel nodded.

Melissa on the side suddenly spoke, "Kusa, this is a bit presumptuous, but I want to ask, have you thought about being Daniel's agent again?" ”

The whole small hall was silent for a moment.

This is the most crucial point of today's meeting.

Kusa will contact Daniel and arrange a meeting today, and he is sure that Daniel is important. But it's not like Daniel said it could be all in one go.

First of all, Daniel doesn't know that Kusa will be able to settle the CAA, and if Kusa can't return to the CAA, it will be difficult for Daniel to reactivate him. Secondly, it is impossible for Daniel not to consider the fact that Cusa is involved in the New York gang, at the right time, if the opponent gets the information, the blow to Daniel is unimaginable, and in the end, of course, it is the willingness to cooperate with each other, this time Kusa did not say goodbye, which brought Daniel a lot of passivity, if it wasn't for Melissa who happened to join in, Daniel himself was very capable, and he would be able to cope with all the affairs, then this change would not have a small impact on Daniel's star career, such a lesson from the past, Daniel would not mind, It's also not very realistic.

These factors led to Kusa's delay in speaking, and Daniel himself was in the midst of contradictions, but Melissa asked without hindrance.
