Chapter 226: Teacher
"Hmm...... Well? Sean blinked, then looked at Katie in his arms with some surprise, "Tom?" Cruise? β
"yes," Katie nodded, completely oblivious to Sean's somewhat odd face, "he's handsome, isn't he?" When I was in school, many of my friends were clamoring to marry him in the future. β
Speaking of this, she couldn't help but smile shyly, and she didn't know if she thought that her idea was too naΓ―ve at the beginning, or if she thought of Tom? Cruise.
"How do I compare to him?" Sean asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Of course you can't compare, you're not very handsome......" Katie replied almost subconsciously, and then the little fool covered his mouth when he realized something.
Then she hurriedly added: "Of course, you have your charm, Sean, you are also irreplaceable." β
Katie opened her eyes wide and pursed her lips in an arc, trying to look innocent.
But Sean didn't get angry or anything, just reached out and pinched her face, and then asked with a smile: "So, have you ever thought about marrying me?" β
"If you give me a romantic proposal, maybe I'll think about it," Katie grimaced with a sigh of relief, "but not right now, I haven't thought about getting married that early." β
Sean Haha smiled, kind of let this matter go, to be honest, he did feel uncomfortable for a few seconds at first, but soon remembered something. When he first met Katie, Sean felt that she was somewhat familiar, as if he had heard her name in his previous life, but he could never remember that it was because Weishenme had heard it. Now, the phrase "Marry Tom? Cruise" at the mention, he suddenly remembered, Katie seems to be Tom? Cruise's third wife!
He still has a certain understanding of Cruise, after all, he and Hanks, the two Toms, were once representatives of Hollywood. Kidman's divorce case also became a fuss. And according to Vladimir, he is the only person in all these years who has been able to get the master ledger from the big studios, and one of the few who has been able to get a cut of the sales of DVDs.
The trick of Hollywood-style ledgers is that no big-name actor can get all of them, so there is always room for studios to do it. And after Cruise got the general ledger from Paramount, it was equivalent to sharing all of Paramount's revenue at the box office, and such power was probably only available to Spielberg and several other top directors, producers and studio owners.
What's more, he can also share the accounts from the sales of videotapes and DVDs, you know, the profits of videotapes and DVDs are very high, for production and distribution companies, if a box of videotapes or a DVD is bought for 10 dollars, at least 8 dollars will fall into their pockets, so many movies can make money back from this aspect when they lose money at the box office, and it is basically impossible for others to reach into it.
For example, "Terminator 3", which is in preparation, intends to invite Mr. T-800, who wants to run for governor, to continue to play the leading role, but unexpectedly, the other party has formed a huge advisory group to negotiate more sharing, including DVDs, to stop the damn Hollywood-style ledger. However, Vladimir was not optimistic, because Cruise also took advantage of the loophole at that time, and it is said that Viacom's president Lei Shidong was somewhat intolerant of Paramount's mistakes and deliberately wanted to renegotiate.
In short, Cruise is a great guy, he has done what many actors have not done, although it is not clear if he has anyone else to help, but it is enough to say something. It's a pity that no matter how good he is, his future wife is now Sean's, and Sean will not let Katie go no matter what.
So even if there is a little unhappiness, he still puts it aside, things have changed in the future, do you still need to care?
In this way, Katie seemed a little embarrassed, so as soon as Sean teased him a little, she became obsessed with him.
"Will you pay your rent here tonight, or will you pay it from me?" After grinding his sideburns, Sean asked with a smile, of course, in exchange for an elbow.
"I'd better go to your side." Katie then wrapped her arms around Sean's neck and whispered in his ear.
"Alright, let's go back now." Sean was about to get up as he spoke, but there was a force in his neck.
"Sean ......" Katie, who pulled him back, asked in his ear in a soft voice, "Will you lie to me?" β
Sean's heart shook slightly, and he turned his head to meet the pair of clear eyes, with unconfidence, hesitation, worry and expectation.
sighed softly in his heart, and the joke of "maybe yes or maybe not" on his lips was replaced with: "Do you want to hear a lie or the truth?" β
Katie was stunned, let go of her arm, and seemed a little disappointed, before looking at him after a moment and asking, "Weishenme?" β
"Because the phrase 'I won't lie to you' is a lie in itself," Sean reached out and rubbed her head, "Everyone has something completely private, something they don't want to show out to everyone, even parents sometimes use some white lies." If you ask me something, and I don't want to tell you, but I don't want you to be upset, so I say something else, do you think I'm lying to you? β
"But...... But ......" Katie seems to want to say something like "Mom said" or "Dad said", and Sean was right, she, Little Joe, and Camilla are really problematic in this regard.
In the end, Katie came out with nothing, and after a while, she pouted depressedly and muttered, "Don't you even want to lie to me?" β
But as soon as this sentence came out, she had nothing to say, and she asked "Will you lie to me" before, and now "You don't even want to lie to me", the inconsistencies are correspondingly interesting. But she was still a lovely girl, and if she were to be replaced by some woman, she would probably already start messing around, so Sean immediately lifted his chin and kissed her lightly on the lips.
"Okay, don't think about it so much, sometimes you think too much, and you will go around yourself." He said that, and then left with a supple Katie.
Sean is just an ordinary person, and he has many advantages, such as believing that something must be done consistently, such as always thinking about others; But there are also many disadvantages, such as being lustful and half-hearted, such as what you like must be obtained. However, he may be a bastard, but he is not a bad person, he has his own bottom line, and he is willing to bear the consequences that come with it.
Not to mention this, after the filming of "Dance of Death Row Inmates" ended, Sean was completely idle, either eating, sleeping, eating or dating women every day, collecting some money for striptease dancing by the way, and playing with Jennifer in some new poses.
Of course, the exercise is still maintained, and he still insists on doing well in this regard, even if he sometimes gets up late and can't run in the morning, he will increase the amount of exercise in the afternoon.
In addition, he also went to lie in England alone, and met the person he wanted to see the most, but he had been dragging on because of various things.
"I gotta say, John, I went to great lengths to find you." After entering the room and sitting down, Sean said in a joking tone.
"Really? So how did you find me? "John? Harrington smiled and poured him a cup of black tea, his brow was a few more wrinkles than it had been more than two years ago, and his sideburns were faintly gray.
"Private Detective," Sean shrugged, "thank God, after spending more than half a year, he's finally got you." β
Then he complained, "If Anthony had told me the address, I would have come here to find you." β
"I made him do this," Harrington smiled, "I'm just telling you in front of him, if you can't do it yourself, even if I recommend you, Anthony won't choose you, he's a good director, he knows what he needs." β
"I know, Anthony said the same thing, but I'm here to ask you daoqian, not just for that." Sean said.
"Oh?" Harrington looked curious.
"You are my teacher, you used concise words to make me understand the method of acting in a short period of time when I needed it most, and guided me unreservedly, which benefited me immensely." Sean said word by word.
Harrington didn't speak, just looked out from the open-air balcony, not far from the famous Portebellw Market in Notting Hill, and a little further away, maybe you could see the small shop where the crew of "Notting Hill" filmed. Owning a small two-story house here is obviously not a bad life in Harrington, but it is not good either.
According to the investigation of the private detective Sanders found, Harrington first entered the Royal Welsh School of Drama in England to teach, but left there two months later, and then moved to the London School of Dance and Dramatic Art, Bristol Old Wick Drama School, and Zuihou entered the University of the Arts London a year ago.
What made him change schools so frequently, Sean had no way of knowing, and he didn't particularly care, the reason why he was looking for Harrington was to spend money on a private detective and spend a lot of effort, in addition to thanking him in person, he also wanted to repay one or two. In any case, Harrington pushed from behind at the most difficult and critical time in his life, allowing him to successfully win the opportunity and embark on a different path, and then have the current achievements, and be grateful.
"I'm just a little bit of a pointer, and I'm not your teacher." Harrington sighed softly.
"I don't think so, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have understood so quickly that proper acting skills are the most haode," Sean shook his head repeatedly, "Moreover, there is a saying in the East, as long as someone has been your teacher for even one day, then you should respect him like a father." β
"Even if it's just a passer-by's words that inspire you, that's what counts?" Harrington asked quips.
"It's different," Sean laughed, "and when I say teacher, I'm talking about the kind of person who really taught me something. β
