unofficial hollywood life

"China?" Tom's expression was slightly confused.

He really doesn't know much about this country. In Japan, he even promoted it because of the movie, but China?I'm sorry, so far, his films can only enter this market through video tapes, and I really don't know anything about it.

"Yes, in Asia, this country is the safest, and it has a deep history, there are enough attractions to watch, you don't have to worry about being recognized, and there are delicious food, it is simply a perfect travel destination!" Diana said The eyes are literally shining.

In the past, it was impossible to go because of various objective factors, but after entering the 90s, it shouldn't be so difficult, right?It's just a travel visa. Neither she nor Tom has any bad records. It should be easy to get it, right?

Chick Morgan tried her best to recall the situation when she saw foreigners on the street, but she was helpless. She was in the new century when she was sensible, and it is almost ten years behind now, so it really cannot be used as a reference.At that time, the flow of domestic travelers had already begun to increase, and with the addition of various international agreements, there were many more open things, and it was impossible to refer to them at all.

But certainly not as strict as the 80s!

She can still be sure of this point, because she clearly remembers that her parents' company had cooperated with foreigners in the early 90s, and there were some documented photos.Since foreign capital can enter, tourism should not be a problem.

As for Mr. Cruise, his true love is extreme sports and flying planes. He really doesn’t pay too much attention to where to travel. He is an otaku when he has nothing to do. What else can he expect?

So when Diana said this, he agreed decisively. He didn't care whether there were people watching this matter when he went out. He had been in Hollywood for so many years, and he had long been used to it.What's more important to him is that there are no paparazzi following behind and patting him all the time!

Even if he is used to being stared at by others, it does not mean that he is used to wanting to live under the camera every day. Acting in movies is his job and hobby, but it is difficult to be someone else’s profit-making tool in life. So comfortable.He really didn't like dealing with journalists during the non-movie promotion period.

As a result, the matter of traveling was left to the two managers to deal with. As professionals, both Brian and Kevin are better than these two people who have no common sense in this aspect. too much.What's more, relying on CAA, it is very convenient to do things.

"Don't worry, the nature of your job will make it easy to get a visa. After all, the visa officer doesn't have to worry about you wanting to immigrate." Brian joked with Tom.

This guy is still worried that the visa will not catch up with Diana's graduation time, it is really unnecessary.

As a big star whose career is in Hollywood, no one would be stupid enough to think that he wanted to immigrate to Asia, so there was really no need for him to worry about the visa issue.

"However, you have traveled too far this time. You still need to bring bodyguards to avoid accidents. There are also assistants and translators to help you with some things..." After talking about the visa issue, Brian brought up another one question.

As a qualified broker, he must let his clients feel that his money is worth it, so he is very considerate in all aspects.

After all, he is a foreigner in a foreign country. He can't let Tom land in a strange country with his girlfriend's eyes smudged. Necessary measures should be taken.This is because the forbidden wooden warehouse in the country is basically very safe, and there are no fans of Tom, otherwise, the number of staff will still increase.

"There is no need for a translator, Abby's Chinese is very good." Tom, who was still ticking off the plan on the paper, said a word without looking up.

He knew Diana's Chinese was very good a long time ago. He once picked her up and saw her negotiating with the boss in Chinese. She claimed to be an avid Chinese lover. She went to language training classes during the Cold War. kind.

Although he always felt that Diana had a weird accent when negotiating with the boss, as if it was different from the Chinese videos he had watched, but this did not prevent him from thinking that his girlfriend was a language genius.English is divided into British English and American English. Even the United States has a variety of accents. Diana may just have met a Chinese teacher with a bit of an accent, which is not a big deal.

Authentic Chinese teacher graduated from Central Radio and Television University: "..."

Damn, don't slander casually, okay?Lao Tzu's Putonghua first-class class is OK?

Chick Morgan said that she has something to say. The composition of her dormitory in college was relatively complicated. Four people came from four places, one from Shaanxi, one from Guangdong, one from Liaoning, and one from Sichuan.Two of the dialects are very contagious, especially the Northeast dialect. This Mandarin branch that claims to give you a Northeast person and return you a class of Northeast people is simply a special killer.Especially when the head of the department is still from the Northeast, the official communication language of the students in the entire department has become the Northeast dialect after more than two years. People who don’t know it think that all the people in their department are from the Northeast!

Under such circumstances, the little girl Morgan was also infected with an authentic Northeast dialect. Sometimes when she got excited, her accent was even more Northeast than that of her fellow Northeasterners. It was amazing!

Of course, Diana can still speak Mandarin well, Sichuan dialect is also fluent, and Cantonese, which is just a daily language regardless of the difficulty, can also be spoken stumblingly.Although my innate ability to learn foreign languages ​​is not good, I am very good at learning dialects. Regarding this situation, Miss Morgan thought very proudly.

Besides, the shop owner is from the Northeast, so if you don’t use the Northeast dialect to bargain, do you have to use other dialects to bargain?

Brian: "..."

Could it be that Diana Morgan's father's business has gone to China?

In less than a year since the end of the Cold War, Chinese in this country is not yet the symbol that symbolizes money and wealth, nor is it a symbol that needs to be treated with vigilance. The research on this language is far from the time to start .

Even if you are a lover of Chinese culture, most people will not waste time learning this so-called most difficult language in the world. Translation is a very useful profession.

"Which one is the best Chinese you speak?" Brian couldn't help asking.

But don't be the kind who can sing a few songs. If this is the case, it will be miserable when you get there.Very good and proficient are two different concepts, okay?

"Well, I've seen her read that kind of ancient Chinese book, which is said to be written by the Chinese 2000 years ago." Tom was taken aback for a moment, then understood what Brian was worried about, and replied.

In his opinion, apart from the slight flaw in the accent, Diana's Chinese is simply excellent, and she can also read that kind of very complicated long poems, if this is not good, it should not be. What counts as good, right?Although he has always wondered why his girlfriend's Chinese is so good because China is so close to Japan, but her Japanese is terribly bad, she can only speak a few sentences, and her tone of voice is still very strange.

Book written by Chinese 2000 years ago?Isn't your girlfriend studying physics?Why do you know Chinese so well?

Brian finally choked back this sentence. Those rich people in the upper class always have some weird hobbies. Isn’t there someone who lives a comfortable life but goes to Amazon to die?It's just a Chinese hobby, it's already normal!

"So you're sure you don't need an interpreter?" He asked with the corners of his mouth twitching.

"Sure," Tom said.

Originally, there is no need to bring too many people with you for travel, otherwise, a good trip will soon turn into a visit. Four people is the limit, and there is no need for more.

"Okay, I will screen out suitable people as soon as possible to apply for a visa together. The time is set in June, right?" Brian wrote down in the notepad, confirming again.

"Yes, a half-year visa is enough, and I will come back at the end of the year to film "Sugar-coated Trap." Tom nodded and said.

No amount of time is necessary, and they don't have the time.

It's just that the route needs to be carefully planned, but there is still time to get it done. The most important thing now is the marriage proposal. Diana's requirements are too high, what should he do if he can't do it?

Time entered Stanford's graduation ceremony in Tom's entanglement.

Groups of students wearing bachelor's uniforms walked into the school's football field in rows. There were all kinds of strange clothes in the open bachelor's uniforms, and there were also students who didn't wear bachelor's uniforms but put all kinds of strange equipment on top of their casual clothes. , there are also those who hold various banners and slogans and wear strange headgears, and even a large number of macho men wearing academic uniforms and only a pair of underwear on the inside are not enough to fight in a vacuum. The graduation entrance of undergraduates fully interprets Let's talk about what is a group of demons dancing wildly, and the brain is wide open.

"As expected of a 'young' Stanford." Michael sat on the audience seat and twitched his lips with a look of hehe.

These students are really crazy. He even saw girls wearing bikinis and changing clothes on the spot. Michael, who was born in a conservative family, felt that he should not have allowed Diana to study in this crazy school. Look at these people, It simply refreshed his lower limit for madness.

"Honey, you were much crazier than this when you were young." With a light glance at him, Anna exposed her son's seriousness.

You know Michael was a hippie when he was young. God knows how he got those weird clothes on him. Has good taste been fed to the dogs?

Now he still has the face to say that Stanford students are crazy. Do you really think that Ivy is a serious person?Can the cynicism not be so obvious!

"Conservative and rigid, I told you, Michael's heart is far from being as open as he shows." Ben sitting on the other side said ironic words with a very gentlemanly smile.

When he was young, Michael was much crazier than these Stanford students. Old Morgan worried more than once that his son would accidentally die in some kind of sport. Such as being eaten by cannibals, or being poisoned and lying in the hospital because of eating some rare species.Diana's "The Lonely Gourmet" is really a mistitle, it should be called "The Crazy Gourmet"!

Compared with him, what are the strange costumes of these children now?He just used some unique decorations and clothes to express his wildness and personality, unlike him, he has been dying non-stop since he was a boy.The only thing that the old Morgan couple can be thankful for is that he is not a child who likes promiscuity, and he married early, otherwise they would have to worry about him contracting that terrible AIDS!

Well, in view of the fact that one of Michael's close friends was the lead singer of Queen who had just passed away, the old Morgans were not unreasonable to have this concern.

If this guy hadn't been left with indelible sequelae in his throat due to food poisoning in his youth, he might have really gone to play rock and roll.And even if his physical condition didn't allow it, it didn't kill the rock and roll soul in him. Not being able to play doesn't mean he can't listen to it. Because of his British origin, Michael was very close to the rock and roll circle over there.Fortunately, his love for food finally overwhelmed his love for rock and roll, and because he got married and had to support his family, this rebellious young man finally got a little more reliable and shifted his focus to a serious career. Otherwise, the old Morgans I really want to be pissed off by him!

You must know that the flared pants and all kinds of weird hairstyles at that time left a lot of psychological shadow on the couple, as well as those outrageous behaviors.If it hadn't been for the consideration that Michael had become the father of a child at that time, Old Morgan might have really used violence to clean up his son.

And little Abby, this cute little granddaughter is much more reliable than her father, she is quiet and well-behaved, she never does anything that challenges the bottom line of human psychology, she has never been worried about since she was a child, she is so sensible that it makes people feel distressed!

If there is any word that can describe this little cutie, then it is an angel. No matter from which aspect, their little granddaughter is worthy of this title.

"Abby must have inherited our good qualities from another generation," Ben told his wife.

His words were full of dislike for his son.

"And her mother's good personality." Anna agreed.

For Monica, the son's ex-wife, if Anna and Ben have any dissatisfaction, then it is that her character is too gentle, not fierce enough at all, so that she can't suppress her bad son at all.

It is not surprising that such a couple who can crazily complain about their son laughed on the spot.

Who told Michael himself to hear too many slots?

This is what his parents know. They don't know more about the things they did in college. Otherwise, where did his friends and contacts who started the business come from?Michael didn't work in the financial industry like his family members. He crashed into the catering industry almost without knowing anything. His childhood playmates certainly gave him some help, but his fraternity companions gave him some help. He helps more.

Michael, who was ridiculed and wanted to refute, but what his parents said were facts and could not be refuted: "..."

Forget it, stop talking, and if you say one more sentence, it may take more time to be read.

He decisively shifted his attention from the field to Tom next to him.

The image of his family's little Abby on the field is nothing to say, the black bachelor's uniform is well buttoned, so it is impossible to see what is worn inside.And judging from her personality, she shouldn't be out of line. Now that this chick is sitting on a chair talking to her classmates, there is nothing to pay attention to. It is more reliable to interrogate her boyfriend.

For example, "Is your job in Hollywood over?"

Father Morgan has the same problem as Diana. He always likes to beat around the bush like a social elite when dealing with people he doesn't like.

Apparently asking Tom why he was here was a bit too blatant, and he chose another way.

Tom: "..."

He glanced at his future father-in-law with a look that Michael couldn't understand, "I won't officially enter the filming crew until the end of the year, and I've been on vacation until then."

Resisted the urge to complain.

Father Morgan's posture is exactly the same as when his dear one treated Mel. Even the arc of his chin is almost the same. Is it really a strong inheritance?

The muscles at the corners of Tom's eyes twitched, knowing once again how unpopular he was in Michael's heart.

On the other side, Monica, who was paying attention to her lovely daughter: "..."

I just can't be bothered to talk to this guy, has his EQ been eaten by dogs?Does the pertinence need to be so obvious!

Frank who was brought over: "..."

Forget it, just look at his wife's contemptuous little eyes and you can tell what's going on in her heart, it's better to be invisible.

The old Morgan couple who just finished laughing at their son: "..."

idiot!

They still have a little understanding of why Michael dislikes Tom so much. I am afraid that in his eyes, people who go to Hollywood are just like people who go to rock and roll. No father would like his daughter to associate with such people.

In fact, the couple didn't have a good impression of this circle, because those gossip tabloids almost used a bombing method to show the people what a terrible living environment this is.

Even if you have reservations about this kind of tabloid with little credibility, it is inevitable to be affected.The difference between them and Michael is that their age makes them more inclusive, rather than aggressive like Michael.

Since little Abby likes it, why should they stop it?

Diana is already an adult girl, she has her own independent thinking and code of conduct, she knows what she is doing, and she will be responsible for her own decisions.Just as they never asked about their son's emotional life back then, they have no plans to intervene in Diana's emotional life now.

Michael is still too young, even if he wants to target someone, don't be there, or if Diana finds out, wouldn't he be soft?At that time, the whole person will have no prestige, how can he deter this young man in the future?

Old Morgan took a look at his son and sighed. Sure enough, none of his sons are easy to worry about, especially his family, each one is worse than the other!

Thinking of his eldest son who was stumbled in Europe, his younger son who was still lying in bed with a broken bone because of chasing a hurricane, and his boyfriend, old Morgan felt depressed.They really should have adopted a daughter with Anna back then, but unfortunately, they were busy at that time, taking care of the three children had already consumed a lot of energy, and really had no spare energy to take care of the fourth, and missed the best opportunity.

Diana made up for his wounded heart, but it was really not enough for the old Morgan who had been in a bad mood all year round.

"It's about to start." Old Morgan was lost in the sky, Michael and Tom were relatively silent and embarrassed, and when Monica and Anna were discussing this year's fashion trends, Frank, who had been paying attention to the field, shouted.

The dance of demons just now disappeared, and the students all sat in the chairs that had been arranged. The professors and guests in neat and solemn gowns also walked up to the podium and sat down. The graduation ceremony is about to begin.

Probably all the graduation ceremonies are similar, the high-level leaders of the school, the famous guests from the society, the outstanding graduates... stand on the podium in turn to speak, talking passionately and Inspiring Chicken Soup.

Perhaps Diana's classmates will be moved by these resonant words, but for her, she has heard many similar speeches since she was a child.Forget it in this life, it was wonderful in the last life. Every activity must have speeches from leaders and inspirational declarations from seniors and sisters. This kind of situation is constantly changing according to the level of the activity, every half an hour. An hour-long speech is still short, and after a long activity, the whole body will sit stiff.She has long been numb to this situation, unable to stir up any ripples in her thoughts.

And her few friends scattered everywhere also looked indifferent. What is the comparison between those who entered the society early and struggled with these students who have lost their fighting spirit and have not been tempered by the cruel reality?

"It's a pity that there is no wireless network now." Diana sighed in her heart.

Otherwise, you can be a bow-headed family.The bored Morgan chick glanced back at the auditorium, trying to observe the expressions of comrades in her own camp, but unfortunately the harsh sunlight made her squint her eyes and turn her head back.

"Why can't the school build a sunshade on the field?" She complained softly.

There is always a feeling of restlessness today, and the sunshine that can be called a skin killer makes Chick Morgan feel even more uncomfortable.

"Isn't something going to happen?" she thought.
