Chapter 213: Love This Kind of Thing
"Why do you have to hold you?"
Walking into an Italian restaurant, Ryan raised an eyebrow at the little girl holding his neck, "Honey, you're six years old. ”
"Because I'm tired." Taylor said as a matter of course, "You're a man, you have to be a gentleman, do you want Nicole to hold me?" ”
After that, to Nicole who was holding Ryan's arm? Kidman smiled flatteringly.
"Mr. Jenkins, please come here."
The waiter walked over and led the three of them to the place where they had made an appointment.
"Pat should be almost there." After sitting down, Nicole looked at the time and asked Ryan, "Why do you want to make a reservation here?" ”
"We can't take up too much of Pat's spare time, can we?" Ryan poured juice for the little guy next to him and continued, "Do you want to keep Pat single for the rest of your life, Nicole?" ”
"Pat ...... Well, it's true that I'm about to become a workaholic. Nicole smiled helplessly.
"Did she break up with her first boyfriend last month?" Ryan silently calculated, Pie? Jin Sili can be regarded as an unladylike person, while her career is brilliant, she continues to suffer emotional setbacks, and she still has no fixed male partner.
"Hey, Pat, here."
Amid Taylor's beckoning and shouting, the agent lady quickly came over.
"Hi Taylor, it's been a long time." Send? Kingsley sat down next to Nicole, "Honey, I heard you're learning an instrument, do you need an agent?" ”
"When I release the record, I will definitely ask you to be my agent." The little girl swore an oath.
While laughing, the four of them asked for their own meals, asked each other about their current situation, and then turned to the topic.
"Hollywood records asked when negotiations could begin on the next album, and Disney wanted to trade equity for the rights to adapt the Harry Potter series." Kingsley handed Ryan the relevant documents.
After a cursory glance, Ryan frowned slightly, actually. Since the release of "Toy Story", there has been an inevitable rift between him and Disney, in particular, he has heard the news, Michael? Eisner was very upset with him.
This is normal, as long as you are not a fool, you can understand that Ryan asked Pixar to terminate the distribution contract with Disney, which was clearly optimistic about the future of 3D film animation and Pixar, but Michael? The Disney executives led by Eisner agreed very happily.
"Toy Story" has almost become a scar on Disney. Originally Michael? Eisner's authoritarian style was criticized, and it gave others an excuse to criticize.
With power and status secured, Michael? Eisner has completely evolved into a tyrant, the Disney board of directors has almost become his word, and his dissatisfaction with Ryan is not a secret.
In fact, from the very beginning, in addition to personal cooperation, whether it is the film distribution channel. Or a co-investment in super-big productions, Ryan has never considered Walt Disney, and even if they part ways now, it won't affect him too much.
"Disney things aside. I wouldn't be thinking about bringing the Harry Potter series to the big screen anytime soon. ”
As he grew older and his appearance became more fixed, Ryan naturally turned his attention back to the film side, in addition to distracting himself from his name's industry. These are the capital to stand on in the future, and they are also the capital to achieve another goal.
Is it just really possible? Ryan's eyes drifted over Nicole's face, and he shook his head slightly. The images in my mind are scattered, and fantasies are always fantasies.
"Okay then." Send? Kinsley sighed, then changed her tone, "Congratulations, Ryan. ”
"Congratulations?"
"Uh-huh~"
Send? "The USC Film School has accepted your application and will announce it as soon as next month. ”
"That's really good news." Nicole spoke, and she held up the juice, "We should celebrate." ”
"Celebrate what?" Taylor looked up from his plate.
"Oh God, that's not what a lady should be." Ryan took the tissue and wiped the little girl's face clean one by one.
"Go to school?" Taylor realized, "Dad said I'm going to school this summer. ”
"Oh, forgot, our Taylor has grown up." Nicole laughed.
In fact, this little guy has already gone to preschool, but just like Ryan at the beginning, he fished for three days and dried his nets for two days.
"I didn't expect it to go so well, I thought it would take a lot of trouble." In two lifetimes combined, this is the first time that Ryan has been able to go to college, and Ryan is a little emotional.
"Recruiting celebrities is also good for the school itself, let alone a recognized film genius like you." Kinsley wasn't surprised at all, "George? Lucas's donation to the University of Southern California has not stopped over the years. ”
Nodding, Ryan vaguely remembered, George? Lucas seems to have donated more than $170 million to his alma mater in a single lump sum.
Ryan applied for the film and television production major, which is not to train directors or photographers, but to train professional film and television producers, which is the strongest major in the USC Film School, integrating directing, photography, art, recording, editing, production and other aspects.
On the SAT test, Ryan's grades weren't very good, most of his grades were B-, USC was able to pass the application, and his grades in movies were the same as George's? Lucas's recommendation probably played a big role.
Prestigious universities need their own signature alumni, like George? Lucas and Robert? Zemeckis is arguably the most famous alumnus of the USC Film School.
Ryan quickly put that aside, after all, enrollment would not be until September at the earliest.
"And, Ryan, I've been approached by a New Zealander who asked about the rights to the Lord of the Rings films." Send? Kim Sili spoke again.
"New Zealanders?" Ryan became interested, the fat man in his previous life started to prepare in 96, "What's your name?" ”
"Peter? Jackson. "He's a New Zealand director who just finished 'Horror Ghosts' last year, and I've had people look it up, and he's a crazy Lord of the Rings fan." ”
In the previous life, the copyright issue of "The Lord of the Rings" alone arose a huge dispute, from the end of '95 to the middle of '97, around the film rights, New Line, Universal, MGM and Miramax and Peter? Jackson's studio engaged in a series of confrontations and compromises, and finally reached an agreement.
Back in '93, Ryan gave way to Pie? Kingsley integrated the rights to "The Lord of the Rings" and "The Hobbit" at a high price, as for whether it was handed over to Peter? Jackson, that's something to think about.
"I don't want to go home!"
In the car, Taylor was throwing a childlike tantrum, "Why can't I go home with you?" ”
"Honey, there's something wrong with your room." Ryan casually found a reason.
"I can share a room with Nicole." The little girl winked at Nicole in confusion, "Isn't that okay, Nicole?" ”
"Dear ......"
Before Nicole could finish, Ryan interrupted her, "No, Taylor, you're not a kid anymore. ”
"I'm only six years old."
Seeing Ryan's widening eyes, the little girl hid in Nicole's arms, "I'm not afraid of you." ”
"Well, Taylor, I'll have the driver pick you up tomorrow morning." Nicole's words were clearly more effective than Ryan's, and the little girl quickly nodded her head.
Obviously, neither Ryan nor Nicole wanted to mix an unstable factor into their night.
It has been said that after a man and a woman have substantial contact, once they are emotional, it will only evolve into a result.
When they walked up to the second floor of the villa and turned into this space that only belonged to two people, Ryan and Nicole, who had been patient for almost a day, inevitably fell into madness.
The two didn't say a word, but they could feel each other's thoughts, the four lips had never been separated since they entered the second floor, and the two hands had already penetrated into their clothes.
Even if they were about to suffocate, even if their faces were flushed, the two of them were reluctant to let go of the slightest, and under the guidance of Ryan's lips and tongue, when Nicole was a little sober, she had already entered Ryan's room.
Looking at the few clothes left on her body, Nicole put her hands on Ryan's chest, a little apart, to maintain her last bit of sanity.
"I'm going to take a shower." She said.
"Okay." Ryan nodded, but didn't let go of Nicole.
"Hold me."
The two of them were so tacitly compatible, Nicole jumped lightly, her slender legs were wrapped around her strong waist, and Ryan's hands were already waiting there, just supporting her body.
In the quiet bedroom, only a desk lamp was left emitting a dim and warm glow, Nicole squinted her slender eyes, crouched on Ryan's broad chest, and one hand mischievously circled his chest and abdomen, as if she was still reminiscing about something, and seemed to be intoxicated by the current atmosphere.
"Honestly, Ryan." Nicole's eyes glanced behind her, and the bastard was playing with his long hair curled between his fingers, "When did you have such thoughts about me?" ”
"A long time ago." Ryan gave a very vague answer.
He's not stupid, if you tell the truth, God knows if Nicole will lose her temper, although Nicole treats him very well, she is never a good-natured person.
"How early?" Nicole isn't easy to fool.
"That...... Nicole you know the truth. Ryan began to mess around, "Love this kind of thing, regardless of age, gender, race......"
"Regardless of race?" Nicole's face darkened, "What are you thinking, Ryan!" ”
"You're thinking too much about yourself, Nicole."
Ryan hurriedly hit him backwards, and Nicole bit him viciously on the chest, and in a scream, a man and a woman became a mess, and finally it turned into a war. (To be continued......)
