Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Wasteland That Detonated America
Ms. Susan's home does not have a telephone.
Originally, during World War II, they installed a telephone at home, but it was blown up by the bomb that Mustache bombed London, and then because of the family's financial constraints, they simply repaired it and did not install a telephone.
However, since Bruce came to contact her, she had to call someone else's phone, which made Ms. Susan think that it would be better to have a phone in the house, and that way, she could report Catherine's situation to the Ederson family at any time.
Of course, Ms. Susan would try to be as tactful as possible, knowing how embarrassing it would be to have a bad girl in the house.
Although Ms. Susan had little contact with the Bruces, that did not hinder their relationship.
Since the death of her husband and her own daughter in the war, Ms. Susan has been strong on the surface, but in fact she has not come out of that shadow.
And now, when Catherine came here, Ms. Susan seemed to see her daughter and her own simulated ignorance, so Ms. Susan regarded Catherine as her second daughter.
Catherine was still adjusting to the equipment on her body.
To be honest, she was a little unaccustomed to it, and she couldn't always take big strides when she walked.
Catherine's figure-eight feet had been corrected by orthopedic pantyhose before, but Catherine still walked in a hurry, and it can be said that she was no different from her previous life.
But if a man's actions are placed on a woman, it is not appropriate.
Although her pace was restricted, Catherine's movements did become much more graceful.
Twisting your body with every step, swaying your hips, and trying to keep your balance, it's as sexy as a catwalk.
After all, having practiced ballet, Catherine has a very good grasp of balance.
Catherine was wearing a cotton coat over her at this time.
After all, it's winter, and it's still a little cold.
The workers were laying the telephone lines while Catherine went to the tutor for lessons. She still has to learn some of the content of high school now.
By the way, Catherine followed Emma's instructions and sent a letter to her home to report her safety.
In the letter, Catherine tactfully asked her parents what they thought of the chastity belt.
But as a result, Catherine was embarrassed.
"In ancient times, it was something that was used to restrain women, to exploit and oppress us...... But now, it's protecting us very well. It's just that in today's society, few people use it. Kate, if the law and order in London has really deteriorated to that level, I will put it on for you to wear better. However, nowadays, I have heard that there are many men's products, and it seems that women are not so comfortable with their husbands. However, the so-called 'machismo' makes them afraid to speak. One of Bruce's former colleagues also wore it, and it's funny to say......"
At first, the construction was not bad, but it is clear that Emma misunderstood Catherine's meaning, and the rest of the article has become an anecdote.
However, from this, Catherine can still see Emma's normal heart for chastity belts.
Although she has been in this world for so long, there are some things that she still can't get around because of the differences in gender and culture.
Catherine was also ashamed, she seemed to really want to be crooked.
After all, although Ms. Susan made her wear a corset, she was not of the destructive type, just to restrain her behavior.
Here, Catherine really has to thank the women's rights liberation organization, if it weren't for their efforts, it is very likely that the current Western women are all "ladies" wearing tunics, large puffs, and even collars, masks and shackles.
The definition of a lady has changed, at least Catherine feels good about this definition of a lady now.
Within a few days of Catherine's reply, the phone was ready.
In fact, after Catherine's arrival, Ms. Susan had already urged the construction team to speed up construction.
As soon as the phone was installed, Ms. Susan made a phone call to New York and reported to Emma about Catherine.
"Oh, Sister Susan, I'm so glad to hear your voice again."
Emma's tone revealed a kind of intimacy and gratitude. ,
"Yes, I haven't seen you in a long time. Catherine has been living here for a few days now, and I have to say, she really is a good girl. ”
"Oh, thank you."
"That's as you said in your letter, and I feel that some of Catherine's bad behavior must be adjusted. Sometimes, she really doesn't look like a girl. ”
Hearing this, Emma's mind also began to appear the every move of the former Catherine.
Truly...... Catherine sometimes makes people feel really uneasy. However, Catherine has always been very wary, so Emma is actually more at ease. Especially since Catherine was given a bodyguard.
However, Emma still thinks it's good to make her daughter more ladylike, not those who are called the "Beat Generation".
So, she said, "Sister Susan, please help Kate if necessary." I wish I could see a gentle daughter. Catherine is smart, but always pokes out the big basket. These things seemed to her father and me to be incredible. ”
"Wasteland" was a fuse that detonated the big dynamite keg of "racism" in advance.
Even the New York Times has dubbed the whole thing a "wasteland incident."
However, the crew is quite happy now, because the box office remains high, and now it has exceeded 80 million US dollars, which is already a small matter.
As for Europeans, they are also generally curious about this film that detonates the barrel of explosives in the United States, what can make the whole of America boil?
Although experts know that "Wasteland" is just an introduction, the general public rarely has such an eye.
Catherine, the "great director", is completely famous.
Prestige can bring a lot of convenience, even if it is discrimination between men and women, sometimes when prestige is enough, it will disappear.
Perhaps because Catherine took on most of the firepower, Bruce Lee and Freeman began to be noticed by other studios.
However, they had signed a contract with DreamWorks, and Catherine didn't have any restrictions on them, but they had to be asked to put the company's interests first.
In other words, if you want to film with them, then give them money......
DreamWorks is also running well, although there have been some minor shocks, but it is far away on the set in the desert of the state of Mexico...... If someone who really hurts the egg rushes over, the employees of the umbrella company will also let them eat a good pot. After all, in the desert, no matter how shrewd people are, they can't hide in the crowd, and there is no such thing as a "crowd" here.
With a phone, Catherine's contact with the company is also convenient, at least she doesn't have to worry about becoming a blind person when she is here, she can still command remotely......
