"I'm glad you finally asked this question, and while I don't like being strong, I don't have enough time left for me to find you a better fit. You change one. Angle, maybe you won't think it's a burden! The old man's understatement replied that the two had seen each other for the last time.

"You've promised him?" Watching Lin Mu walk out of the church with a gloomy face, Lao Mu had already guessed the result of this conversation between the two.

"Do you think I have any other choice?" Lin Mu asked with a wry smile.

"I'm sorry for carrying this burden that didn't belong to you!" Lao Mu said with some guilt.

"I don't accept your apologies." Lin Mu shook his head, "Because even without you, he would have come to me, and I was originally the same kind of person as him." He's right, there are some things that only I can do! ”

"So can I do something for you?" Lao Mu knew that this was Lin Mu trying to persuade himself, but this increased his guilt even more. He thinks he has dragged Lin Mu into this pile of trouble.

"You can help me manage that organization, just as you helped me tend to the flowers and plants in my garden." Lin Mu took one last look at the church behind him. He secretly swore that from now on, his fate would not be at the mercy of anyone.

Lin Zhiling originally came to the United States for a vacation this time, and Lin Mu originally planned to use the New Year's holiday to accompany her to some famous scenic spots in the United States, but after returning to the United States, Lin Mu suddenly became busy. The main reason is that there are some problems with Sanamre Shidong's physical condition. Viacom is now the only one who can preside over the big picture.

And it is close to Christmas, and Lin Mu's various social activities have also become more, fortunately, Lin Zhiling is by his side, and when he participates in the drinking party, Lin Mu finally does not have to worry about the problem of his female companion, but the two of them were originally out

There must be disappointment, but just like a woman who is in love, as long as she stays with the person she likes, Lin Zhiling doesn't really care where she goes or what she does. During her stay in the United States, no matter how busy Lin Mu was, she would take time to accompany her to see some art exhibitions and musicals from time to time. Of course, the most frequented places for the two of them are the restaurants in Chinatown, and they will eat all the restaurants with special characteristics. Lin Zhiling offered to cook at home and personally prepare dinner for Lin Mu.

The furnishings in the kitchen of Lin Mu's house were left by the owner of the house, and when Lin Mu's parents lived in the United States, they came to visit their son from time to time, and Liu Suyun would use one to use this kitchen. When his parents moved to Xiangjiang, this kitchen was never used again. Lin Mu didn't know how to cook himself, and he never thought about cooking for himself.

Most of the spices in the cupboard have expired and cannot be used, so Lin Zhiling spent a lot of time reorganizing the kitchen and took Lin Mu to the supermarket. Los Angeles is due to the large number of Chinese. Therefore, all the raw materials that Lin Zhiling needs to cook are readily available in the supermarket. Moreover, this supermarket also provides a delivery door service, which Lin Zhiling has saved a lot of effort.

Because of the influence of the family environment since she was a child, Lin Zhiling has regarded cooking as a compulsory course for her growth, and she once hosted a cooking column, which can be said to have a unique experience in cooking. At first, Lin Mu was a little worried. But when he tasted the dinner that Lin Zhiling had prepared for him for the first time, he dispelled all his doubts. Lin Zhiling doesn't just know how to cook. And the taste of the food is multiply, and it can be seen that she is really good at this aspect.

Because Lin Zhiling is by his side. Lin Mu was going to hold a New Year's Patry at home after Christmas, and at first he was only going to invite a few friends. But Lin Mu wanted to make the party more lively, and he found that it was obviously not enough to invite only James and Cameron, Spielberg, and David and Geffen.

But when Lin Mu began to think about inviting more people to this party, he finally found that he had made a long list. He has a wide range of people in Hollywood, and the people he listed have all worked with him, and it is indeed a little different to choose from the one who is particularly suitable.

At Lin Zhiling's suggestion, Lin Mu decided to invite more Hollywood filmmakers to this small party, and then make this party a New Year's carnival for Hollywood filmmakers. The place of the meeting. From the original Kenwhitt Avenue to a private estate in the suburbs of Los Angeles, the total number of guests attending the party has also changed from a few people at the beginning to a hundred, Hollywood celebrities, executives of several film companies with good relations with Paramount, and famous Hollywood filmmakers are all on the list of Lin Mu's invitations this time.

Although this was a gathering of Hollywood filmmakers, Lin Mu did not forget several Chinese filmmakers who were in the United States at this time. Li Lianjie, who has just registered his marriage in the United States, and Cheng Long, who is stranded in Los Angeles because of the filming schedule. and Yuan Heping, who served as the action director of several films at the same time, received invitations from Lin Mu.

On the last night of the Force, a large private party at the Zaidit estate on the outskirts of Los Angeles attracted the attention of all the Hollywood media. From the expensive cars of different shapes parked outside the manor, it can be seen that this is a high-level party.

Although this party is not allowed to be interviewed by the media. But there are still many reporters waiting outside the estate, because they know that they will see many faces that are usually difficult to see today.

The gathering did not disappoint the waiting journalists. Here they see Spielberg, a great director who has rarely appeared since "Saving Private Ryan"; James Cameron, who has been secretly filming new films, also appeared in the eyes of reporters with his wife; And Lu Zhibesson, who was filming the second episode of "Harry Potter", even gave a brief interview to a French journalist before entering the venue.

Sharp-eyed reporters also found Hollywood actors Nicholas Kay and Tom Hanks among the invited guests; Then someone recognized the Wachowski brothers, who became famous by filming "The Matrix". Someone also met Robert Romiski, the director of "Forrest Gump", who had worked with Lin Mu in the early days, and Frank Durabon, the director of "The Shawshank Redemption".

And such a top party will naturally not lack the help of Hollywood actresses, Angelina and Jolie, who cooperated with Lin Mu in Cameron's new film, lived up to expectations and appeared in front of the reporter's camera. And Hollywood genius Jennifer Connelly sat in the car and said hello to the reporter outside the car window. "Titanic" star Kate Winslet also dressed up, while the British rose Kate Beckinsale went to the banquet with a mysterious man. It also made the journalists think about it.

Let many parties inquire! Next, the reporters finally learned that the organizer of the filmmakers' gathering at Qute Manor was not a Hollywood film organization, but Lin Mu, the chairman of the board of directors of Paramount Pictures. Many people suddenly realized that Lin Mu's status and prestige in Hollywood. His invitations are rarely turned down, so it's no wonder that so many celebrities came to cheer for the party.

Lin Zhiling wore a black tulle dress tonight, and her plump figure and delicate lines made her successfully overwhelm other female stars and become the focus of this party. Her relationship with Lin Mu has long been known in Hollywood, so she presided over the whole party as the hostess. The visitors were not too surprised. Because it was a private party and no media involvement, everyone seemed relaxed as they sang and danced on the last night of the century to welcome the arrival of the new century.

Lin Mu is not good at banquet socializing. But this time he invited the guests as the host. He hid in a corner by himself, and it seemed a little inappropriate to avoid these interactions. Accompanied by Lin Zhiling, he shuttled through the crowd, toasted the guests one by one, and chatted a few words when he met old friends.

He and Lin Zhiling went around the cocktail party, but they didn't see the few Chinese filmmakers he invited, which surprised him, because when he received his invitation, Li Lianjie, Cheng Long and others did not refuse. He found several staff members who were in charge of welcoming guests, and in the list of arrivals, he quickly found the names of Li Lianjie and Cheng Long. They have come, but what about the people?

"There are a lot of guests today, and everyone is busy greeting acquaintances, maybe they missed us somewhere," Lin Zhiling said with a frown.

"Maybe!" Lin Mu nodded, it stands to reason that it is not difficult to find Li Lianjie and Cheng Long at the party, the appearance characteristics of yellow skin and black hair are easy to identify. He tried hard to recall the details of the way he had just walked, and he didn't find any places where it was possible to miss the two of them.

As Lin Zhiling guessed, Li Lianjie and Cheng Long were indeed looking for Lin Mu in 4 places. But for these two Chinese kung fu stars, many Hollywood film company executives are eager to get acquainted with them. So there were not a few people who came to talk to them, which made them a little unable to get out of it for a while. By the time they've finished dealing with these interactions. When they went to look for Lin Mu again, Lin Mu was also looking for them, and the two sides passed by. Neither of them noticed the other.

On the way back to find it, Lin Mu first encountered Yuan Heping. When Lin Mu invited him from Xiangjiang to Hollywood, he has been staying in the United States, and many movies he has cooperated with Lin Mu have been very successful, and Yuan Heping has become a well-known action director for Hollywood audiences. In Hollywood, Yuan Heping is very famous, and many of the film directors or producers he talks to hope to cooperate with him in the future.

Seeing Yuan Heping, Lin Zhiling called him "Eighth Master" very kindly. Yuan Heping is not ranked eighth, and his nickname is "Eighth Master." It originated from the fact that his brothers made fun of him as an old man and called him "uncle." Later, it was falsely spread, and it became "Eighth Master Yuan Heping himself didn't care about this nickname." That's why everyone likes to call him that when they see him.

Lin Zhiling didn't know Yuan Heping because of filming, because Yuan Heping once recorded a show with her as a guest, and the two met from this, in private, Yuan Heping called Lin Zhiling girl, and Lin Zhiling called him "Eighth Master, but I saw Lin Zhiling and Lin Mu standing together." Yuan Heping didn't call her a girl. Instead, he nodded to her first, and then greeted Lin Mu very politely.

Although Yuan Heping is old enough to be the elder of Lin Mu, the success of Lin Mu has made many people habitually ignore his age. There have been many Xiangjiang directors who have been in Hollywood since the Tian era, but they have all returned with a feather. Yuan Heping was able to make such a big name in Hollywood, half of which was due to Lin Mu's support, and it was he who gave Yuan Heping a stage to show his strength, so Yuan Heping has always respected Lin Mu.

"Director Yuan has been very busy lately!" Lin Mu joked that as far as he knew, Yuan Heping was not only the action director of the sequel to the film "The Matrix", but also the action director of two other Hollywood movies. It's not easy to see him now.

"When I'm done with this, I want to go back to Xiangjiang to have a look." Yuan Heping smiled, Hong Kong films have been moving a lot recently, and even Hollywood has begun to pay attention to the dynamics of Xiangjiang. Yuan Heping also heard some news, he can only be an action director in Hollywood at present, but it is different to return to Xiangjiang. With his successful experience in Hollywood over the years, it can be said that he has made a lot of achievements when he goes back. Although he didn't sign a hard deal with Paramount, he still felt the need to talk to Lin Mu first about some of his major decisions. Lin Mu knew that Yuan Heping would definitely not really leave Hollywood, he just wanted to shift the focus of his work to Xiangjiang, and the cooperation between them would continue in Hollywood, so when he learned that Yuan Heping had such an idea, Lin Mu did not object. Even Yuan Heping is willing to go back, which shows that Xiangjiang Films has at least come out of the trough. However, if we want to revitalize, I am afraid that there is still a long way to go.

"Eighth master, you promised to cooperate with me in the show, you go back to Xiangjiang to develop, don't forget me if you have any good roles!" Lin Zhiling felt that the topic between Lin Mu and Yuan Heping was a little too serious, so she deliberately diverted the topic.

"Miss Lin has a good memory, you are now an international star, I don't think Mr. Lin is as big as Mr. Lin, I can invite you to play those powerful roles. At first, it was all small movie roles, and then I really came to you. Don't be disgusted." Yuan Heping smiled.

"Then we're done." Lin Zhiling doesn't care what role Yuan Heping will reserve for herself, Lin Mu has always encouraged her to cooperate with different filmmakers and try different roles, so that she can better hone her acting skills.
