Chapter 20: Guess Where

The packaging of the MV had already been handed over to a specialized VFX company by Bardman on the same day.

Of course, Don De had already written down all the things that needed attention, and handed them over to the VFX company, and they would receive the finished film within three days.

When he returned home in the evening, after having dinner with his family, Tang De was lying on the bed, playing with a snake on his mobile phone, when he suddenly received a text message.

It's Scarlett.

"Let me see what was sent to me?" Don De muttered to himself and opened the text message, but there was only a comma.

"Strange?" Tang De raised his eyebrows, could it be that Scarlett sent the wrong message?

So he replied: "What are you doing?" ”

Shortly after, a photo was sent. The photograph is a little blurry, but you can see a floor-to-ceiling mirror of the hotel, and in the mirror there is a faint picture of a woman wearing pink silk pajamas with her hair hidden from her face.

She knelt on a yoga mat in front of the mirror, leaning forward and backward. The fair-skinned and smooth thighs are stacked on top of each other, with shoes hanging on one foot and red nail polish on the other, which looks particularly conspicuous.

There is no doubt that this is a selfie of Scarlett.

At the same time, she also sent a text message: "Exercising. ”

The smooth arch line of the foot saw Tang De nodding lightly, and sent a message to ask, "Do yoga?" You're idle, still in New York? ”

"Want to know where I am? It's a clever idea, but unfortunately, I saw it. ”

Scarlett replied quickly, and Don could even think of the smug and sweet smile on her face as she typed.

Tang De couldn't help but provoke the corners of his mouth, and deliberately provoked: "It's a pity that you saw through it, just a little bit." However, is the secrecy so strict, so afraid of being found by me? ”

Unexpectedly, in the next second, Scarlett sent another photo, it was Scarlett's slender swan neck and collarbone, she leaned her back against the floor-to-ceiling window, and gently stroked her neck with her hand that also applied red nail polish, which was extremely tempting. Floor-to-ceiling windows offer a dimly lit view of the street from at least 18 floors above.

"yes, I'm really afraid of being found by you. Otherwise, I'll be ......... by you as I did in the agreement I'm so scared, do you think the place where I live looks good? ”

This woman is actually provoking! Tang De raised her eyebrows, she dared to post street photography! Is it because you can't recognize where she is?

Licking his lips, Tang De couldn't help but get excited.

He took a closer look, and although the view outside the floor-to-ceiling windows was blurry, he could still see the shape of the building.

One of the two-story buildings is particularly familiar, with a cloud-shaped curve on the wall, which is very special.

Tang De only thought for a moment before recognizing it.

That's the Getty Center Museum of Fine Arts!

"^_^ Good, I already know where you are. Baby, go take a shower and wait for me in bed! He immediately replied to Scarlett.

This art museum was built in 1997 and is still not very famous, but in later generations, when you search for relevant places on the Internet, it is definitely among them, so it is not difficult for him at all.

And knowing this, Don De knew where Scarlett was.

That's known as the City of Angels, where Hollywood is located, Los Angeles.

"Really? You lied to me! Do you really recognize it? Do you know which hotel I'm in? ”

Scarlett was obviously shocked, and even used a few more tone words.

"From the angle and orientation of the photo...... Hey! You're in Los Angeles, Sunset Boulevard Hotel, am I right? ”

Tang De immediately sent a text message.

“FXXK! You win! You actually recognize it. Tell me, how did you recognize it? Otherwise, I won't be able to sleep tonight! Scarlett even burst into foul language, so you can imagine how surprised she was.

But Tang De didn't satisfy her curiosity: "Haha, it's okay. Baby, wash up, wait for me. When we meet, I'll tell you how you recognize it. ”

"Oh, sorry...... Dear Mr. Donde, the plane to England is about to take off, and it seems that I am not blessed with this blessing. Unless...... You can borrow a rocket from NASA to send you here, or you won't have time to meet me in Los Angeles even if you grow wings. It's a shame that your jackpot has to be postponed until next time. ”

“FXXK!” This time it was Tang De's turn to burst into foul language.

"Hahaha." And Scarlett's text messages make no secret of her smugness and schadenfreude.

"Looks like I'm out of luck, but I wish you a good trip. As for how I guessed your address, it's simple, I recognize the Getty Center Museum of Fine Arts! It's not very well-known, but you know, I'm an artist. ”

"And in your first photo, there is also the hotel bronzing text on the slippers, although it is hidden, but don't try to hide from the eyes of me, a photographer."

"Wow, I see, looks like I'm going to get a good night's sleep tonight."

After reading the last message sent by Scarlett, Don De dropped his phone with a little smile on his face.

Unexpectedly, Scarlett seems to be a more interesting woman than he imagined.

Although it was a bit regrettable that it took half a day for brain cells to get no reward, it was ......

Ding dong!

Just as Tang De was trying to calm down, the phone suddenly rang again.

Tang De picked it up casually and opened it, and his eyes widened.

In the phone is a selfie photo.

Scarlett's white, tender thighs lay across the screen, while on the inner thighs, two thrilling, subtle arcs stretch out into the unpredictable place off the screen.

Coupled with the pajamas, underwear and panties casually thrown on both sides of his thighs, Tang De could even think of Scarlett holding up her phone and pointing it at the picture she had taken.

"Your consolation prize." A text message is attached to the back of the photo.

This woman is crazy! Is this a photo that can be sent to someone casually? Tang De's mouth couldn't close in surprise.

Well, it's still the millennium, and the Internet lace news of various celebrity privacy thunderstorms has not yet appeared. Scarlett is obviously not as defensive as later generations.

"Chick, I solemnly warn you, don't post photos randomly." Don De immediately texted Scarlett.

It was a few minutes before Don received Scarlett's reply.

"Thank you, Grand Knight. Your admonition, I have taken to heart. In order to thank His Excellency the Grand Knight for his loyal advice to me, and to beg Mr. Grand Knight not to release poor Scarlett's private photograph to the public, I can only beg you for mercy. ”

"Ding-dong." Another photo came to my phone.

It's just that this time the photo is more explicit, and it's an overlook from the bathtub.

Scarlett held up her phone to take pictures of most of her fair skin bathed in bubble baths and roses, and the flesh hidden in the white bubbles was extremely catchy. The most important thing is that she also put on a begging expression for mercy.

The photo itself is nothing, and the key parts are blocked by bubbles! At most, it's a shame to cover up.

But the look on her face ...... FXXK! As long as it is a man, it is impossible to stand it, Tang De stood up directly.

"Damn." Tang De swallowed and spat, his throat a little tight.

This woman understands too well!

“FXXK! This abrasive leprechaun. Tang De clenched his phone tightly and swore: "Sooner or later, I will press you in the bathtub to correct the Fa on the spot!" ”

The next day, Donde, who had planned to weed the yard alone, was approached by Jimmy.

So Jimmy also became one of the weeders.

The two wore gloves and stood in the sunny yard, chatting while pulling weeds by hand.

"It's troublesome, Donde, why don't you buy a lawnmower?" Jimmy has a new understanding of the Donde's frugality, and he is reluctant to buy even a lawnmower.

Tang De pulled up a piece of grass and said: "Before, because of the repayment of debts, this yard has not had time to clean up, so of course the lawn mower is not needed, but now that I have money, I can indeed buy one." ”

"Then we'll buy it now! Why pluck it by hand? Jimmy frowned and didn't understand.

Tang De shrugged: "Don't be so anxious, calm down, Jimmy, don't you think this is a good way to cultivate your mind?" It can make people calm. ”

"Come on, Donde, calm down? You can't match those two words when you're on set. Jimmy scoffed at him.

Tang De spread his hands: "Okay, but what are you coming to me for?" ”

"yes, I just wanted to talk to you." Only then did Jimmy remember his intentions: "Donde, you should sign a brokerage company." ”

"Brokerage?" Tang De was a little puzzled: "I don't make much money now, is it useful to sign it?" ”

"Of course!" Jimmy hurriedly explained to his good brother: "For example, CAA, one of the largest agencies in the United States, can arrange for me when I need to work. ”

"But I don't think I'll be short of jobs in the future." Don De is telling the truth.

"Different, buddy! CAA has access to the best directors and music companies, and their resources are unimaginable, and their packaging service is also the best way for us to reach top films. ”

This Tang De has heard that CAA's packaging business is to recruit top talents in each position to its own, including actors, program planners, writers, screenwriters, producers, directors, etc. It is then packaged and sold when needed for TV or movies.

This approach was initially well received by the market, as it avoided the tedious step of having to search for talent for each position separately, but then the cost of producing the film continued to increase as the price of CAA packaging rose.

So now the major companies are quite complaining about CAA.

But for filmmakers like Donde and Jimmy, who are currently at a low level, there is an obvious benefit.

That is, you can join those high-profile movie shoots that you can't usually reach with packaging services.

But there's a problem here.

Tang De was puzzled: "Will a nobody like me also sign a contract?" ”

Speaking of this, Jimmy immediately replied categorically: "Of course! Apollion! He has a connection with the top management of CAA, you know, as long as we go through his channel, we can smoothly join CAA and become a member of the package sales. ”

Tang De suddenly realized, sure enough, there was a greedy exchange of interests everywhere.

The packaging business makes it impossible for the buyer to scrutinize every position, so if the resume is faked and two more inconsequential pawns are stuffed in, it will not affect the shooting of the whole movie.

It may be that at the beginning, CAA could still control the people underneath, but now that this business is getting bigger and bigger, it must not be able to control them one by one. I just don't know how much money those buyers have paid for such a cost-effective sale for so many years.

But it has nothing to do with Donde.

But he didn't want to rely on this channel to get in: "The commission will be more than normal." ”

"That's right." Jimmy didn't deny that.

"Then I don't have to rush, Jimmy. When this MV comes out, I'm sure I'll have a good bargaining chip, and of course, you'll too. "Don De is confident.

"But you need a lawyer to help you before you do that, or you won't be able to handle the vampires' terms."

"You're right, you really should contact a lawyer."
