Chapter 245: A Gesture of Effort
"It's worth mentioning that until the end of the visit, he was always that mature and funny, and he didn't look like he was 21 years old at all, and I don't think anyone who saw him would have doubted that he could do a great job in "The Talented Ripley" at the age of 18. However, when the interview was over, he immediately showed another side, and kept asking me how he was doing, and when I said, you are doing well, everyone will like it, and he will show a happy smile, at this time, Sean is like a big child. However, this situation can only last for a few minutes, and he will come back soon to ask, which is really good, and the nervous look makes people laugh, and the perfectionist obsessive-compulsive disorder can also be seen......"
This is reported in the current issue of "Vanity Fair", with a set of photos that Sean specially took for them - this time it is no longer with Jude - especially the cover one, with a sweater over the shirt, an open neckline, and hands in trouser pockets.
It's a little sad that this isn't Vanity Fair's best cinematographer, Annie? Leibovitz's work, otherwise the effect would certainly be better.
Even so, the response is still very good, the character flaws set by the public relations for him are very good, not to mention that he does have a little obsessive-compulsive disorder, such a publicity, ordinary people also have a better impression of him, although the tabloids know that this is one of the ways to shape the image, but since it can attract attention, it doesn't matter. With these guys fueling the trouble, Sean's image began to become more and more plump, so when he came home on Thanksgiving, his mother kept knocking on the side, worried that something might be wrong with him.
"I'm fine, Mom, it's just part of the publicity." Similar words have been said many times in just a few days.
"I know, I'm just asking, can't I even ask now?" Mother has always been a calm and breezy appearance, so Sean can only retreat.
"I'm not a kid anymore, and Weishenme's mother is still so nagging." He couldn't help but complain to Liana.
"I thought you knew." Liana gave him a roll of her eyes unceremoniously.
Well, Sean knows, of course he knows, in the eyes of parents, no matter how old a child is, whether he is independent or not, he is still just a child. So there will never be less of these problems, at least he's still home, but luckily his mother knows the balance very well, and at least she won't ask Weishenme again and again during the holidays that she is not married - well, this is just an example.
As for the father, ha, it's still the same, and it's already good to be able to say hello when you meet, but Polke and Lucy, whom Sean brought back this time, are very close to him.
Lucy won't say anything, who the little kitten is good to depends entirely on the mood, when the mood is not happy, even if Sean teases it, it will be bitten twice - of course, it is still measured, it will not bite, but it will use its teeth to express its dissatisfaction. But Poke didn't have the habit of barking twice after seeing a stranger, his father just beckoned, and it ran over, Sean thought maliciously, it was probably bullied by Rhubarb and Erhuang after just entering the house.
Actually, it can't be said that Rhubarb and Erhuang bullied it, the two big dogs in the family seem to be fierce, but they are still very honest in nature, and Polk was brought back by Sean, even if he teased, it won't be too much. It's just that, compared to Boke, these two dogs are enough to put pressure on the little thing just because of their size, and after a few strokes with it, they will naturally honestly pick up their tails.
In this case, every time he was teased, he looked at Sean with tears in his eyes and begged for shelter, but the latter was indifferent, and naturally as soon as his father beckoned, he quickly ran to please him.
Okay, let's not talk about that, Sean pulls Liana to talk about something else.
"Interested in opening a restaurant in Burbank?" Sean asked.
"We have restaurants in Los Angeles." Liana didn't understand.
"No, I mean Burbank, not downtown Los Angeles." Sean said emphatically.
"We also have a restaurant in Burbank." Liana narrowed her eyes.
"I know, but it's not a fancy restaurant, is it? There aren't many high-end restaurants in Burbank, and there's still a market for that. Sean said in a guiding tone.
"It's better to say what you want to say, or I wouldn't mind taking the earrings off and stuffing them into your stomach like a bomb." Liana snorted coldly.
If Sean was drinking water right now, she would definitely squirt out, and what a joke, she didn't play fighting games before, and she didn't know what they meant about her in private - well, it should be.
Of course, Sean wasn't actually drinking water, so he just looked at his sister with his eyes wide open and at a loss until the other party shook his fist in front of him.
"Well, that's right," he said quickly, "you know, Galen always wished he could open a restaurant of his own, but he's too young now, with little experience and little capital, though I'd love to invest." So, I think if you can open a fancy restaurant in Burbank, he will have a very good internship opportunity, and he can fully learn cooking and restaurant management without having to conflict with his family. ”
Then he emphatically said, "This is a very good opportunity, I asked someone to investigate a little, and there is a lot of room for high-end restaurants in Burbank." ”
"Really?" Liana smiled and didn't go to talk about opening a restaurant, "So what are you going to do?" If Galen leaves the house, who cooks for you and manages the room for you? If you live in a cramped apartment, you might struggle to get it out, but it's hard to say right now, or are you going to let him go back and forth? ”
"So what to do?" Sean scratched his head in annoyance, "If he stays by my side all the time, then don't think about doing his own thing." ”
It's a pity that Liana didn't answer, just looked at him quietly, and Sean rolled his eyes and had to say directly: "Okay, then what do you think, how about letting him intern at that restaurant in Beverly Hills?" ”
"So you were trying to trick me into opening a new restaurant in Burbank at first, and then when I refused, you took a step back and arranged for him to go to a restaurant in Beverly Hills?" Liana asked, raising an eyebrow.
"That's not the point, the point is that the proposal is simple, isn't it?" Sean doesn't care so much.
"Well, I can promise," said Liana, after looking her brother up and down, "but I'll only pay him as an intern, and not at all if he leaves often." ”
"No problem," Sean agreed, "even if I pay you." ”
"Looks like you've made a lot of money, Sean," Liana smiled, then looked puzzled when she thought of something, "Weishenme is a restaurant in Beverly Hills?" ”
"Because where I'm going to buy a new house," Sean shrugged, "a new house that's bigger." ”
"Bigger? How big is it? Liana asked with interest.
"Hmm......" Sean was a little embarrassed, but when he looked at his sister's eyes that narrowed unconsciously, he knew that if he dealt with the past now, he would definitely die a miserable death.
"About ...... Well...... 1。 1 acre bar. Sean stuttered a little.
"Wow, 1. 1 Acre ...... How many?! Liana, who had always been calm, couldn't help but widen her eyes.
1。 One acre is almost three-fifths the size of a standard football field, and the house my parents live in now is zero. About 5 acres, not to mention her own, but now Sean is planning to buy a building with an area of 1. 1 acre villa ...... When did he become so rich.
"That "My Grand Greek Wedding" made you so much?" Liana asked in surprise.
"It's not bad, in addition, I have made some investments, and now I have almost made 100 million." Sean puffed up his chest rather proudly, and before he could say anything, he realized that something was wrong.
Sure enough, Liana raised her eyebrows: "You're very proud, Sean." ”
It's a pity that Sean is also experienced in a hundred battles, and after realizing that he said the wrong thing, he had already run to the door: "Don't worry, I'm still me, your brother, Mom's son, Dad's...... By the way, nothing will change - besides, don't tell Dad. ”
Watching her brother disappear into the room, Liana snorted heavily, then sighed again, pondered for a moment, and finally shook her head and stopped thinking about it.
Sean, who left, was quite happy, although there were some twists and turns, and before his sister saw through the purpose, Zuihou even told part of the things he planned to hide for the time being, but after all, he successfully achieved his goal - to find a place for Galen to accumulate experience in opening a restaurant.
Although Galen's family ran a restaurant, his father had always disliked him, so it was impossible to go to the family's restaurant to gain experience, and what he observed as a child was simply not enough. However, Sean's family is in the catering industry, there are chain fast food restaurants and high-end restaurants, and now his sister is the head of the personnel department, and it is very simple to arrange for him to go to a restaurant for an internship, not to mention that he doesn't get much salary.
After a trip to San Francisco for Thanksgiving, Sean returned to Los Angeles and told Galen about it, and Galen was very moved.
"There's really no need for you to do that, Sean," Galen said, "I've got time anyway, and it's not too late to think about it in another two or three years." ”
"You can't say that, Galen, the more you experience, the more things you think, and the slower you learn things, if you don't hurry up now, you have to wait until you're done twice the time in the future, and it won't take you much time anyway, will it?" Sean patted him on the shoulder.
Everyone is friends and friends, how they treat themselves, they should treat them, not to mention that this is just a gesture.
So Galen soon went to the Beverly Hills restaurant to report, so in the next period of time, Sean and Sanders settled a meal or two on their own from time to time, because ...... His 1. The 1-acre mansion hasn't arrived yet. It's not that Sean regrets it, in fact, he has looked at several places with the agency, and he hasn't decided which one to buy for the time being.
