Chapter 423: You Are My Eyes
"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that? ”
While Roland approached Kate, his hands naturally put on the other party's waist, leaned over his wife and kissed him lightly on the lips, and then asked with a smile: "Do you not like me to bring work to the house?" Or is the almost three-hour meeting boring to you?
If it's the former, then I'll pay attention next time, and if it's the latter, then I can only say that everything was an accident.
Because I don't know, they're going to visit out of the blue. ”
On the surface, Kate, who is as light as a chrysanthemum, is a wife who is dissatisfied with her husband's overtime work every day and late at night, and Roland, who is chattering and explaining to her, is a migrant worker who works hard outside and has a lower status at home.
Just when Roland wanted to hide the unpeace in her heart, Kate, who was held in his arms, raised a smile and straightened her nose, as if to capture the faint smell of smoke enveloping her husband, but it was more like tasting the beauty of skin-to-skin kissing, after a pause of a few seconds, she said slowly: "I'm not bored, and I don't mind if you bring work home." ”
"Oh? Is it? This answer made Roland smile awkwardly but politely.
The next second, unwilling to face the reality, he said nonsense: "Then I understand, you can't leave me for a second, right?"
I didn't expect that after seven years of getting along, you would still be obsessed with my charm?
It's really ...... I'm so proud! ”
"Goose Goose Goose Goose ......" narcissistic stinky words made Kate smile, showing her white teeth at the same time, she also shook her head and touched her husband's waist, "Aren't you embarrassed to say such things yourself?"
Alright, don't stand at the door.
Let's go, go upstairs, I've already made your tea. ”
A hilltop villa in Malibu Beach, the best place near Los Angeles to look out at the ocean and feel the sea breeze? Listening to the murmur of the waves? The high degree of integration between man and nature will make you feel the ease that overflows from your bones.
Why? When renovating here? Roland deliberately asked David to make a rooftop for himself.
When you're fine, make a pot of tea? Serve two or three fruit plates and lean towards the recliner? Reading or studying? That pleasant environment can make people get twice the BUFF with half the effort.
If there are still beauties to accompany you, the efficiency of work will soar.
But? That was before.
Today......
Even if everything is business as usual here? Roland is still lying on the familiar chair blowing the familiar sea breeze, listening to the familiar sound of the waves and sipping familiar tea, but the meticulous movements beside him always make him a little awkward.
And the psychology of wanting to ask but not daring to ask made him a little headache.
Because he sensed something? But dare not face reality.
But ostriches, it's not so easy to do.
Just as he was thinking about whether to speak? When he took the initiative to pierce the window paper between the two, Kate, who had made him tea, had already gotten up? Naturally leaning over to Roland's side, lying on his side in the narrow gap where no one could sleep? While resting your head on your husband's shoulder? Right arm and thigh? even took the initiative to put it on the man.
Hold her breath and close her eyes, then sigh, when her right hand passed through the T-shirt and touched Roland's chest, the clear sweat touch made Roland understand that he might seem to be about ...... Heart-to-heart with Kate.
So, Roland stopped pretending, "Honey." ”
"Huh?" Kate snorted softly in her nasal voice, like a delicate cat.
"Ask whatever you want." Roland exhaled, his hands already raised, and he held his wife in his arms.
"You know what I want to ask?" Kate didn't look up, still closing her eyes and asking silently.
"Pretty much." Roland pursed his lips.
"If that's the case, I don't think I need to ask, do I?"
"No, no, no, I feel uncomfortable if you don't ask."
"Really?"
"Of course!"
"Haha~" Feeling her husband's sudden accelerated heartbeat, Kate let out a silver bell-like laugh, but even so, she had no intention of talking to him on an equal footing, and continued to bury herself in Roland's arms, saying: "Then let's do it, if you feel uncomfortable, just listen to me, okay?" Unless there's an actual mistake, or I ask you a question, you're not allowed to interrupt me, okay? ”
Such an instruction made Roland's heart chuckle.
But it can't be helped, no matter what the problem is, you have to face it with a smile!
"Okay." Roland nodded.
At the same time as his words fell, Kate also licked her mouth with her tongue, while recalling the summary of the past three hours, while recalling everything in the past five years, and when she caught the intersection of all the problems, the dusty past slowly emerged.
"Roland, do you remember when we went to New York after Titanic was released?
It was the one when a sudden hail rain affected four million people in New York State.
We went to the disaster area, donated 2 million to the local victims, and then moved to New York to visit some old friends.
And as you prepare to leave New York and head to Washington, you get a call from Francis Coppola.
Then we went to his house together.
Do you remember that? ”
"Yes." Roland's mouth was sour, and he was now sure that he had guessed correctly.
But Kate was very satisfied with her husband's answer.
"If you remember this, you should remember why Francis Coppola was looking for you in the first place?"
Although this is a question sentence, Kate did not give Roland a chance to answer, but gave the answer on her own, "He came to you to help his nephew Nicolas Cage, right?"
Says Simon West wants to film the 'Black Hawk Incident'? ”
At this point, Kate paused, and after feeling the fierce heartbeat coming from her palm, she changed her position with her husband's shoulder on her shoulder, like a koala, lying on Roland's body, and her cheeks were tightly pressed against Roland's chest.
"If I'm not mistaken, you showed great resistance to the Black Hawk Down project.
You don't want to make this movie at all because it's too sensitive.
But......
That night's conversation didn't end there.
Because in our later chat, we talked about how to make the movie "Black Hawk Down" profitable if we had to do it...... We also mentioned that if a film company that does not control the power of the media is allowed to make this film, then the company only needs to publicize it according to the dovish theory of peace before the release, and when the war breaks out, it can easily use a series of reasons such as 'interfering in politics' and 'stirring up public opinion' to kill it on a series of grounds, such as 'interfering in politics' and 'stirring up public opinion'......"
Rumble!!!
Roland's body stiffened!
Although Kate's tone is calm and weak, for Roland, this kind of revelation is undoubtedly a kind of hammer that hits the door of the brain!
That's right!
When Roland turned around and found his wife looking at him with strange eyes, he had already woken up! Four years ago in the spring! I seem to have talked about this topic with each other in a hotel in New York!
And after Kate revealed all this mercilessly......
Roland is even more sure! This guy in my arms! Already smelled all the anomalies!
No!
She's afraid......
Everything has already been guessed!
"Uh......"
However, just as Roland wanted to organize the language, Kate suddenly grabbed his hands and squeezed them gently.
Feeling the sweat stains on her husband's palms, Kate still didn't get up, and said with a smile: "Honey, why are your hands sweaty?" ”
"I ......"
"Don't be nervous, I haven't finished talking about it yet......"
Before the words fell, Kate continued: "If there was no problem with my memory, then we should have been talking about this in the bathtub of the hotel at that time, and after saying the ridiculous plan that there is no possibility of operation, your emotions that day were quite excited, if you have to describe it, it should be the same as ordinary people winning a billion lottery?"
In short, it's a big exaggeration.
And after that, you didn't want to be involved in the Black Hawk Down project, but you became very interested in it. ”
Speaking of this, Kate, who was lying on her husband's body, suddenly raised her head, and when she felt that her husband's heartbeat had no reference value for her own analysis, she rubbed her body, lay down side by side with Roland, her eyes fell on the face that she couldn't get tired of looking at, and said with a smile: "You know what? When I learned that you were reluctant to invest in Ang Lee's new film "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" because of the stance shown in the movie "Riding with the Devil", my heart was happy.
As a businessman, it is the right choice not to cause those obvious troubles.
However, when I found out that while you felt that the position of "Riding with the Devil" was too biased, and you couldn't wait to take the initiative to take the lead, hoping to create an anti-war movie "Black Hawk Down", my heart was extremely confused......
Because I don't understand, why do you create a 'defeat that cannot be shown in front of the American people' when you know that 'the Civil War has to be meaningful'? If it's because you want to make a war movie, you can change the subject, and when I saw that the enthusiasm you showed at 'Black Hawk' was only after you took the lead in getting non-media industry owners to shoot it, I already had some strange ideas in my head......"
Hold the grass!
Roland's heart has countless Cao mud horses galloping past!
He sighed and sneered, like a salted fish, not wanting to turn over at all.
Is it because he doesn't want to justify?
Come on!
That's because even if the salted fish turns over, it is still a salted fish!
In the past seven years, in more than 2,500 days, Kate and him have not been separated for more than 50 days!
In the case of only a handful of parting days, no matter how much he quibbles, he can't hide this woman next to him!
However, no matter how discouraged he is, it is impossible to stop deceiving this kind of thing.
"It was just an accident." Roland turned his head and met his eyes.
"I just wanted to shoot 'Black Hawk Down' on a whim, but I didn't want to take the responsibility of destroying it......"
"Huh? Is that so? Kate raised her eyebrows, dimples on her face, not convinced.
"Of course." Roland was still quibbling, "If you remember all of this so clearly, then you should know that before Francis Coppola asked me if I would like to invest in the filming of 'Black Hawk Down,' Sony had cheated me on my money through Sony, Amperin and Warcraft Films, so ...... You know ......."
"Okay." Kate reached out and touched her husband's cheek, feeling the roughness from her chin, she didn't dwell on this single matter, but asked, "If all this is a whim, then what about the consultant you found later?"
You made Arnold Schwarzenegger the producer of the film, and through him, you brought in former Secretary of Defense Henry Rumsfeld and former Secretary of Defense Dick Cheney, and you even invested in Gilead ...... to make sure they got in."
"It was an accident, too." Roland Khan is coming down, "Gilead is not what I want to invest in, but James ......"
Before he could finish his words, Kate had already continued, "Is it James who wants you to invest?" ”
"Yes!" Roland blew his nose.
“Okay。” Kate leaned over and kissed her husband on the forehead, then said, "Don't be nervous......"
"I'm not nervous."
Roland Qiang laughed, but he knew in his heart that he was just a dead duck now-
Only the mouth is hard.
"Shall we proceed then?" Kate asked.
"Mouth ......" Roland's face was long.
If both of the above points were accidents, what about after that? That is, at the time of our wedding?
The day after our wedding on Kauai, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Henry Rumsfeld approached you, and as far as I can remember, they were looking for you to talk to you about the release date of Black Hawk Down?
In other words, the movie "Black Hawk Down" from project initiation to production to later release and publicity is actually arranged by you, and investors, producers, and distributors...... It doesn't seem to have anything to do with it? ”
Roland was silent.
He really couldn't quibble with that.
After pausing for a long time and finding that her husband didn't say anything, Kate spoke again and said, "If this is just according to the process, then the next fourth link, I am even more puzzled......
You announced your retirement after the release of "Spider-Man 3", and you played outside with me for most of the year, without participating in any activities, without participating in any promotion, and even without attending the premiere of Ashley and Mary's movie, but you came back before the release of "Black Hawk Down" and stayed for a month.
The point is, it just so happened that in the month we've been back, so much has happened around Black Hawk Down, and after all that happened, they were able to intersect in an instant and point to the same topic we had talked about five years ago......
Don't you think all this is too much of a coincidence?
Especially after a coincidence, the capital that maintains a good relationship with us can also take the initiative to come to the door and divide up most of the interests we have discussed...... Can all of this really be explained by accident? ”
When Kate looked at her husband directly, unabashedly conveying her doubts and incomprehension to Roland, Roland, who was holding his wife, only felt that his hands were trembling.
Because there is no way to refute it......
Because there is no reason to refute......
Because everything has long been taken into Kate's eyes......
'It's all over the calf! ’
Roland pursed his lips.
If half an hour ago, he was still rejoicing in disassembling Sony, now, he is only nervous about being exposed!
'Hold the grass! She didn't think there was any need to ask, what else did you ask her to say! ’
At this moment, Roland can't wait to give himself a slap!
