In the face of Randy's request, Hugo was ignorant, he looked at Steven, but he didn't want Steven to dodge his gaze, and smiled and urged Hugo to fulfill other people's wishes. Hugo didn't think much about it, and generously signed the booklet, and then Randy asked Hugo expectantly if he could sign another one for his daughter, Hugo did not refuse, he not only completed the signature, but also wrote a short paragraph, "You have a wonderful father, I can feel his love for you, I heard that you are graduating in June this year, I hope you can enjoy every day." ”

Then Steven took the camera and took a few photos of Hugo and Randy, as well as a few separate photos of Hugo, which was the end.

Randy took the booklet and camera, thanked him again, and was about to leave, but Hugo was a little overwhelmed, "Uh, isn't Steven ......" He signed autographs, took pictures, and carried out fan service here, but the other party didn't take care of Steven, which was a very rude behavior, and Hugo couldn't help but panic. But the words were too direct, and Hugo was worried about hurting Steven's self-esteem, which made Hugo very embarrassed.

No, Hugo noticed that Randy cast a puzzled look at Steven, and Steven waved his hand and motioned for Randy to leave quickly. Hugo sensitively sensed that something was wrong, and cast an inquiring glance at Steven with a slight frown, but Steven coughed lightly twice and said in a low voice, "This is the condition of my reservation." ”

Hugo's first reaction was that he had misheard, but when he saw the slightly embarrassed expression on Steven's face, he realized that Steven was not joking. This made Hugo not hold back for a moment, and he laughed out loud, "Steven, I only know about 'Alien E' now." How was the 'Great White Shark' filmed. ”

Childlike, Steven has the heart of an old naughty child, and it has not changed to this day. It's just that few people can see this side of Steven, and only a few people can get in touch with Steven's childlike character.

Steven didn't deny it, shrugged his shoulders with a smile, and then put his right index finger to his mouth and made a "shhh" gesture, which made Hugo really happy immediately.

At this time, Randy returned to the table again, resumed his usual professional posture, held a bottle of red wine in his hand, first showed Hugo and Steven the packaging of the bottle, and asked Steven to confirm the label, bottle and other details, and then took the red wine again, took out a bottle opener from his pocket, and opened the bottle of red wine on the spot.

Immediately, Randy slowly poured some into Steven and Hugo's red wine glasses, stretched out his right hand, and motioned for the two of them to taste it, "Although the wine has not been decanted yet, the taste will be a little heavier, but you can still taste the sweetness of the summer of Napa Valley in 1987." ”

Hugo didn't know much about wine tasting, but he still picked up his glass, shook it slightly, let the red wine touch the air as much as possible, put the glass on the wing of his nose, sniffed it gently, and sure enough, a refreshing and intoxicating aroma came to his face. Put the wine glass to your lips, tilt your head slightly, and feel the collision of red wine and taste buds, although Hugo doesn't know what the taste of Napa Valley summer in 1987 is, but the taste is indeed very good, not as astringent as Randy said, it is still relatively smooth.

Steven also tasted it a little, and looked at Hugo inquiringly, Hugo shrugged, "I'm not an expert on these, you make the decision." ”

Steven nodded and said to Randy, "That's it." "This is the habit of high-end restaurants, after tasting it, if you are not satisfied with the taste, you can return it.

Randy smiled and brought a small trailer from the side, then placed the wine in the ice bucket on the trailer, "Enjoy your evening." Then he turned and left.

However, Randy turned around and walked less than a step before he stopped again, sideways and out of the way. Hugo could see Randy's movements out of his sight, but he didn't think much of it, thinking that it was just a guest passing by, but Steven looked up behind Hugo, and a familiar smile appeared on his face, which made Hugo turn his head in surprise, and then saw a bearded man walking over with a smile on his face.

It's James Cameron!

Steven waved at the other party, greeted him with a smile, and said, "You're coming over for dinner tonight too?" ”

James had a relaxed smile on his face, and it could be seen that he seemed to be in a good mood, "No, I just went to the bar next door to sit down, and I heard that you were here, so I came here to say hello." It's not easy to book a spot here, I'm still on the waiting list, and I'm said to wait another thirteen days to get a spot. You actually booked a place today, and it was a long time in advance, right? ”

Hearing James's words, Hugo couldn't help but be speechless, even the famous James had to queue for so long.

Steven glanced at Hugo and said meaningfully, "I used some shortcuts. This made James laugh chuckled, "If you don't mind, you can join us for dinner tonight, unless, of course, you have someone to make a reservation with at the bar." Steven politely cast an inquiring glance at Hugo, and Hugo naturally had no problem - today it was Steven who said that he had something to do with him, and since Steven didn't mind, he had no problem.

James laughs and explains, "I went to the bar with a few friends, but I think they can understand that, after all, the 'cut' spot is not so easy to book. If Hugo doesn't mind. The last sentence was naturally said by looking at Hugo.

"Oh no, of course not, it's Steven's credit card on the counter today, so it's naturally okay for me." Hugo hurriedly said with a smile, and stood up and held James's right hand that he took the initiative to stretch out.

Then Hugo moved a position inside, James sat down next to Hugo, and Steven raised his hand to summon Randy and motioned for him to bring another set of utensils.

At this time, Hugo noticed that Steven had made an appointment for a four-person booth instead of a two-person booth. Is this a coincidence or an accident? Could it be that James' appearance was expected by Steven?

Probably not...... Hugo himself denied his conjecture, after all, even if James wanted to see him, Steven could say it directly, and there was no need to hide it at all. Therefore, today's encounter should be an accidental encounter.

"It just so happens that we haven't ordered food yet, do you have any requirements for red wine?" Steven took the initiative to speak, and James waved his hand repeatedly, "I don't ask for it, don't care about me." ”

Looking at James's modest appearance, Hugo felt very strange, because people all over the world know that James is a man with self-esteem and self-confidence, and he tends to take all the initiative into his own hands. In the crew, James dislikes others challenging his authority, and can even be said to be annoying, and because of his short temper, there are often conflicts in the crew.

Even in Hollywood, where there are countless personality thorns, James is one of the best, and almost everyone who has worked with him is miserable. Not long ago, when he was at ILM, George Lucas's words could feel James's strength.

James has experienced five marriages before and after, and none of them lasted long, mainly because James's personality is too strong, he doesn't know how to compromise, and the collision is too frequent, until Suzy, who has a gentle, docile and low-key personality. Amis) has changed, Susie, who played the heroine's granddaughter in "Titanic", even launched the film industry for Cameron, and devoted herself to her husband and children at home, which made James's married life stable.

However, Hugo forgot one thing, although James was nicknamed the "King of the World" by many people, but in fact he did not catch up with the golden age of Hollywood, he and Steven, George's four directors are not the same era, in fact, he watched George's "Star Wars", which confirmed his desire to become a director, so he quit his job as a truck driver, entered Hollywood, and started from behind the scenes.

It's really an incredible time, James only became a director after entering the eighties, "Terminator" was his first self-written and directed work, and then quickly became the king of commercial films, "The Abyss", "Alien 2", "Terminator 2", "True Lies", ...... There are also "Titanic" and "Avatar", which later won the attention of the world......

Therefore, in front of top directors such as George and Steven, James is relatively restrained. Of course, the main reason is that because this is not a set, it is not a work place, and they don't need to spend time together, so a brief peace is not unusual. If James has always been a thorn in the coffin who does not know how to compromise, then it will be difficult for the huge, overspent and shocking investments of "Terminator 2", "Titanic", and "Avatar" to happen. Obviously, James is also a smart guy.

Randy then handed over the menu, and with his help, the three of them finished ordering. The atmosphere was enlivened by a simple conversation, but Steven never mentioned the so-called business, and Hugo didn't know if it was because James was there, or if Steven was not in a hurry, and he didn't think much about it.

"I was on the phone with George that day, and I heard that you came up with a lot of great ideas that were of great help to me in the new work I was working on." James casually mentioned.

This made Hugo wave his hand again and again, "George is exaggerating, I just put forward a little idea, I don't participate in the real work at all, for digital and technology, these things are really not my strengths." ”

"Hehe, this is the charm of science and technology, a little thought, you can create countless miracles." The smile on James' face was relaxed, "Isn't that what you're shooting right now?" I've heard that the special effects in it are wonderful. ”

Seemingly, James seemed to be more than happy to talk to Hugo.
