Chapter 37 Who is the Greatest Broker in the World?
"You also make breakfast?" With a lazy voice sounding at the door, Sean, who had thrown the eggs into the pan, turned his head and saw Jordana, wearing only a shirt and bottoms, standing at the kitchen door, leaning on the door frame with her hands in her arms, looking at herself with a smile. The morning sun shines through the windows, casting a golden shade over the room and giving her a hazy aesthetic.
"I don't know what you like to eat, so what's in the fridge, I just make it." Sean explained, "Please wait a few more minutes, or have an apple." ”
He pointed to the fruit basket on the kitchen table, a few bright red apples that had just been washed, and they were extremely shiny. Jordana snorted softly, walked over, picked a suitable one, bit one hard, and then found a stool to sit down.
"I thought you snuck away." Jordana said vaguely.
"Why, am I like that?" Sean chuckled, but his head couldn't help but think of that morning.
"Of course, aren't you the kind of person who is close to innocent girls with harmless faces, coaxing them into bed and leaving with sweet words?" Jordana, biting the apple, said unceremoniously.
"My image in your mind is so bad?" Sean, who listened more and more, couldn't help but turn his head, "You're talking about the big bad wolf dressed as grandma, right?" ”
"Almost." Jordana shrugged, but finally couldn't hold back and burst out laughing.
Sean shook his head, shoveled the fried haode eggs onto a plate, and served them with bread, jam and cereal, and milk, and brought them to Jordana.
"It's not bad," after tasting a bite of the omelette, Jordana nodded with satisfaction, "Don't you eat it?" ”
"I'm full when I heard that," Sean teased, then waved his hand, "I ate it before you got up, and it was made for you." ”
Jordana stopped talking, bit her fork and looked at him for a long time, then sighed: "You know, Sean, you have a kind of magic, a magic that allows girls to take off their guard in front of you. ”
"Oh?" Sean raised an eyebrow.
"I'm serious," Jordana sighed, "I can't tell what kind of state it is, I just think it...... You are reliable, and you have a maturity that is completely different from your age, and you can be trusted. Don't underestimate a woman's intuition, although it can't be explained, but many times it works. ”
She said and put the fork on the plate and put her hands crossed on the table: "In this way, plus you are both educated and gentle and considerate, sometimes sunny and sometimes very mysterious, and very good at making people happy, so as long as they have been in contact with you for a long time, most girls will fall unconsciously." ”
Sean touched his nose a little embarrassed, hesitated before saying: "First of all, I want to say, Xiao Qiao, you are really very charming, maybe because of your sunshine, maybe because of your liveliness and enthusiasm, so I am inevitably attracted to you." If you think that what I did last night made you very unhappy, then I want to you daoqian, sincerely. ”
"Not really," Jordana shrugged, "I'm so stupid that I let my guard down after only a few contacts, and then you're calculating it." ”
That being said, her gaze was unusually complex, as if teasing and self-deprecating, but it was certain that she was not angry, and that she was clearly ......
Soon, Jordana realized that something was wrong with her, immediately coughed dryly, twisted her head to the side, and then said in a cover-up: "Okay, at least I know what it is like to be a man now?" ”
"Huh?" Sean, who was a little overjoyed, couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this.
"I mean," Jordana blinked, revealing his familiar smile again, "last night was the first time I slept with a man. ”
"What?!" Sean's head suddenly burst forward, dumbfounded, completely incredulous, her enthusiastic appearance last night didn't look like the first time.
"I'm gay." Jordana then announced, then added, "Well, it's bisexual now." ”
"You...... What are you talking about, Little Joe? Sean, confused, asked with a wink.
"I grew up in New York, and I attended Sacred Heart Convent Girls' School in high school, and you know, this kind of church school has a lot more rules and regulations than the average middle school, so I can't help but want to break the taboo and try what I am interested in, plus it's a girls' school, so ......" Jordana spread her hands and said, "That's what it is."
"Then I'......" Sean's mouth twitched, "I should be honored?" ”
"Of course." Jordana Haha laughed and continued to deal with her breakfast.
Is...... It's weird. Sean smiled wryly and pinched the bridge of his nose, but at the same time, an inexplicable feeling welled up in his heart, making him feel like he wanted to hold on.
However, no matter what it feels like, how you want to catch it, it won't be something you can sort out for a while, and if you look at the time, it's already 9 o'clock.
"Hey, Little Joe, can I borrow your car? I still have things. Sean said, "Remember what I said last night?" I'm going to wait for news. ”
"About the audition for 'The Talented Ripley'? No problem. Jordana made a gesture of please, "Good luck." ”
“xiexie。” Sean smiled slightly, and was about to leave when his mobile phone rang, and when he took a look at it, his heartbeat couldn't help but be a little faster.
"Guess what's the greatest agent on this shijie?" As soon as the phone was answered, Frederick's exaggerated voice came from the other side.
"Frederick, of course? Rogers too. Sean wanted to laugh a little, but at the same time realized something, and his body suddenly tensed up a little.
"So, who is the most miraculous agent on this shijie?!" Frederick continued to ask in his exaggerated tone.
"Still Frederick? Rogers. Sean said with a smile, one hand involuntarily clenched into a fist, and his body trembled slightly from excitement.
There was a burst of daxiao over there, and at the end, the agent's somewhat uncontrollable voice came to Sean's ears: "Congratulations, Sean, Anthony?" Minghella just called in person, and he wants you to play the lead role in "The Genius Ripley"! We've done miracles, we've done miracles! ”
Although he had expected this news, Sean quickly reached out to cover his mouth, otherwise he might scream.
"Xiexie you, Fred, Xiexie you." He forced himself to say this, then hung up the phone, and then, with one hand propped up against the wall, his whole body arched.
"Are you okay?" Jordana, who pricked up her ears and listened, asked worriedly, and the next second, Sean suddenly rushed over, hugged her, and kissed her on the cheek repeatedly.
"Xiexie, Little Joe, Xiexie! You're my lucky star! He said excitedly, ignoring it, and couldn't hear Jordana's screams at all, and for a while, the chickens and dogs in the kitchen jumped-
"Good morning, Fred."
"Good morning, Lenny."
"It's a nice day, Fred."
"yes, another sunny day, Carlos."
Amid the greetings and envious glances of his colleagues, Frederick walked to his cubicle proudly, as if he had been exposed to the sun for dozens of minutes and then poured a bottle of ice water. Hollywood says it's not small, it's not big, although it's only been an hour since Minghella called him, and everyone who should know should know.
Recommending a newcomer with an experience close to a blank slate, to the Oscar for Best Director, and playing the leading role in his upcoming film, what more eye-catching achievement can there be?
"You look like a swaggering mouse, obsessed with the cheese in front of you, and you can't see what's standing next to you." A faint female voice drifted into her ears at this time, with a slight mockery, quite harsh.
"Really? When you spot a piebald cat and get caught and teased by it, call me and I'll be there to applaud you. Frederick unceremoniously retorted, who could talk to him like this at this time, except for the old rival Anna? Who else is outside of Gordon?
"I hope you don't forget what you're doing and what else you have to do." Anna shrugged and made her way to her cubicle.
Frederick snorted, and surprisingly didn't continue to refute, but returned to his compartment to prepare for the next step. He knew very well that the war was only a third of the way through, and there was still more intense to come.
That's right, it seems that the goal has been achieved, and Minghella has officially sent out an invitation, which means that he has approved Sean's performance, and all he has to do is wait for the signing and the start of filming, but in fact it can only be regarded as a stage victory. Don't forget, in addition to the director, there are producers and investors who can decide the cast of a movie, and will Miramax, who brought in the investment, agree to Minghella's arrangement?
It's hard to say that none of the Weinstein brothers at the helm of Miramax are good talkers, especially Harvey? Weinstein has a lot of connections in Hollywood, and if he insists on not using Sean, it's hard to say whether Guerra can handle it. In the final analysis, Sean's qualifications are still too shallow, and investors will not want to see a rookie actor who has little fame and box office appeal to play the leading role, which will increase the risk of the movie.
You have to think of a way, if you don't sign a contract for a day, this role will still be in the mirror. Although signing a contract may not be 100% insured, it is better than not signing a contract at all.
Now only the idea can be made on Minghella. Frederick said to himself. To be honest, although he tried his best to fight for Sean, he basically didn't think that he would succeed. In his cognition, this is completely impossible to happen, but what he didn't expect was that a miracle really happened, just like when he was kicked out by the crew of "Everyone Loves Raymond", and the next day he was favored by the crew of "Friends...... No, it's more incredible than that, it's the first time in Hollywood.
You must know that aside from those young idols and child stars, most of the actors who can become famous only start to play the leading role after playing a few small roles, and there is no one like Sean who played the leading role in such a big-name production from the beginning.
So what exactly prompted Minghella to do this? Frederick had no intention of getting to the bottom of what had happened, he only knew one thing, he had to let this miracle continue! Definitely!
