Hollywood Hunter

Du Mui Point Manor.

As soon as the car stopped, Janet, who had been waiting outside the villa, greeted her.

Veronica Johnston stepped out of the car door, still in a serious women's black suit, stepping on black high heels.

With her eyes on Janet's bulging belly subconsciously, Veronica's habitually cold face showed some softness, and the corners of her mouth seemed to be picky.

"Alright, alright, Bingberg, don't force it if you don't laugh, it looks so strange." Janet came to Veronica, embraced her aunt affectionately and hugged it carefully, still not forgetting her mouth. Teased, and said: "Also, you are finally willing to come to see me."

Veronica patted Janet lightly on the back, seeming to whisper explaining: "I'm very busy."

Janet just joked and didn't continue the topic. She took Veronica's arm and turned to Shell Villa and said, "Look, Simon and I's house, is it beautiful?"

Veronica looked up at the building that had actually seen photos in many magazines.

Because this villa has a very special design style and location, a similar design trend has emerged in recent years. Veronica knows better that the Westeros Building in Manhattan, which is under construction, will definitely be more dazzling than the shell villa in front of her once completed.

Watching with Janet for a while, Veronica nodded and said, "Very beautiful."

Janet chuckled a little smugly, and continued to hold Veronica's arm and said: "Let's go in, let's show you around. In addition, I have already prepared the room for you. Live here for two days."

Veronica shook her head and said, "I have booked a room at Hilton, and all the luggage has been delivered."

"Then quit. You come to Los Angeles instead of staying at home and staying in a hotel. The media will definitely guess randomly. These days have been annoying enough."

As Janet said, she turned her head and ordered Neil Bennett who had picked Veronica to go to Hilton to pick up her luggage.

Veronica hesitated, thinking that Simon was not in Los Angeles in the past few days, so she did not insist.

If it wasn't...she wouldn't be here this time.

Today is Wednesday, September 25.

Veronica came to Los Angeles, besides visiting Janet, she also had to deal with MGM matters.

The two made a brief circle in the Shell Villa, visiting and chatting about recent trivia. Of course, Janet is talking most of the time.

Finally, I sat down on the sofa next to the glass curtain wall in the villa by the sea, the time was still more than ten o'clock in the morning.

In Los Angeles at the end of September, the sun was just right in the morning, and the blue sky, white clouds and the sea outside the curtain wall were even more beautiful.

Snuggling very annoyingly next to Veronica, Janet said: "Leave work aside. Lunch is already being prepared. If you are tired, you can rest after eating. Now in Australia, um, When should it be now?"

Veronica took the water glass handed over by Girl D, thanked her, and replied to Janet: "It should be more than five o'clock in the morning. I have slept on the plane and I don't need to rest."

"Our 767 is pretty good, right? It's a pity that Simon will come back the day after tomorrow, and the plane will go to Europe to pick up people, otherwise he can send you back."

Veronica arrived today, and will finish the matter here two days later, and will rush back to Australia on the afternoon of the 27th. Simon will return to Los Angeles from Europe about the same time.

In fact, it is no problem to stagger the time slightly.

However, neither Veronica nor Janet mentioned this issue.

The two were chatting casually. The housekeeper Alice Ferguson came over with a folder, and after greeted Veronica, she handed the folder to Janet and said, "Mr. Norman has drafted the statement, madam. , If there is no problem, it can be published in the Los Angeles Times tomorrow."

Janet opened the folder.

With the release of the new "Forbes" list of the 400 richest Americans in the United States, recently there have been people claiming to be Simon’s parents who want to admit their relatives. The coping strategies that Simon and Janet discussed at the outset also showed some minor omissions. A couple who had been bought to deliberately steer things towards a farce tendency suddenly publicly admitted in the media that they had collected money, which caused a wave of public opinion.

The imagination of the media is always very rich.

The exposure of the money-collecting couple made the whole thing more like a farce.

However, some people also questioned whether there are other ulterior stories behind the incident.

Although no one has traced out who bought the couple, Simon himself has become the subject of suspicion by some media.

After several discussions over the phone, Simon and Janet decided to make a complete break.

The basic content of this statement at the moment is: Simon Westero has known his own life experience and has handled the matter properly in private. In view of this, all those who try to identify relatives can only be imposters, and Simon Westeros will not respond to matters related to this in the future.

This statement is of course true for Simon.

However, Janet must not know certain things.

Because Janet was by her side, Veronica also looked at the statement document in her hand, something strange appeared in her expression inevitably, and she looked at Janet with some anxiety.

He asked her to keep this secret forever.

She also kept the secret, even if Janet had misunderstood something, she had not explained it.

right now.

Did he tell Jenny?

Janet read the statement in her hand carefully twice, and handed it to the housekeeper beside her, "It's okay, let George send it out."

When the housekeeper walked away, Janet looked at her aunt again, noticed the twinkle in Veronica's eyes, and asked curiously: "What's the matter?"

Veronica tried her best to calm herself down, and said nonchalantly: "Simon, has he found his parents?"

Janet shook her head, nodded again, and said, "Recently, anyway, you should know that every time the "Forbes" list is released in recent years, many people will jump out and claim to be Simon's parents, so we thought A similar farce ended with this statement just now. In fact, I think Simon should know who his parents are, but he refused to tell me. Moreover, he must have had a bad life when he was a child, and he did not recognize his relatives at all. Plan."

Veronica actually didn't want her family to know certain things.

However, hearing that Simon did not tell Janet, she suddenly became a little worried, and said: "Jenny, how is he to you?"

From the coffee table in front of him, Janet picked up the small fruit plate that Girl D had just delivered, and ate the fruit with a fork. He blinked a few times and smiled: "Of course."

"That," Veronica pointed to Janet's belly, and said, "He is going to Europe this time?"

"As long as he is in Los Angeles after pregnancy, he will leave work on time at five o'clock every day to accompany me. He rarely leaves work before six o'clock. There is no way to go to Europe this time. The project "Wonder Woman" is great for Danny. Liz Entertainment is very important."

Janet explained, leaning over and rubbing against her aunt again, and said, "Well, although the little **** has some unusual ideas, it is really good to me. Bingberg, you, uh... you just have to leave He just needs to be farther away, don't let him succeed, or it would be too bad."

Because she didn't know the reason, Janet was convinced that Simon had a bad idea about her aunt.

At other times, it was still used to call Veronica ‘Iceberg’. How could it be easy to change the habit since childhood. However, to remind a guy, in front of him, she now deliberately changed her name to Veronica'Aunt.'

It just seems to have no effect.

Janet occasionally thinks, if someone really succeeds, what should I do?

An argument?

She doesn't have this attribute at all in her bones, and she won't quarrel with people.

Beat him?

It's too light.

What's more, think about the physique of your own man, even if he doesn't fight back, she probably won't have much effect in hitting it, unless you use a guy.

kill him?

Well, reluctant.

Divorce him?

have not thought.

cold war?

This is too lethal.

She even felt that if this kind of thing really happened, it seemed that it was not that serious?

Veronica had already explained it last night. Seeing that Janet started talking nonsense again, she gave her a helpless look, but stopped talking, just as she hadn't heard.

At 11 o'clock, Lady D came over to remind that lunch was ready.

After eating lunch, Veronica was sent to take a nap in the arranged room by Janet, even though she said she had already rested on the plane.

I just slept for more than an hour, and it was less than two o'clock in the afternoon when I woke up.

Coming downstairs, Janet was talking on the phone with Simon in Italy in a living room facing the sea on the east side of the villa lobby.

Sitting quietly next to Janet and Simon talking, it seemed that it was late at night on the Italian side, and the other side was obviously very patient, so he relaxed.

The crew of "Wonder Woman" is recently based in Naples, southern Italy.

Naples is also a metropolis with a long history in Italy. The famous ancient city of Pompeii is just outside of Naples. There are many ancient Greek and Roman architectural relics near this city, which is suitable as a filming location for Paradise Island.

Simon stayed in Venice for one night, and came to Naples the next day.

I personally followed up the filming of "Wonder Woman" this week.

In order to match Simon's schedule, the crew deliberately arranged an important battle scene for this week, which is the battle where the Germans followed Steve to Paradise Island and the Amazons.

After continuous training in "Batman: Hour of War", "Batman: The Dark Knight", "The Flash" and other films, the strength of the behind-the-scenes team cultivated by Daenerys Entertainment has performed vividly in this scene.

The main reason why the original space-time Marvel Cinematic Universe is still outstanding without the control of a big-name director is the powerful behind-the-scenes action special effects team.

Simon has taken this very seriously from the beginning.

Not only that, the director Martin Campbell selected by Simon for "Wonder Woman" is also stronger than the new director promoted by the Marvel Cinematic Universe in memory.

Although for Hollywood, the three people Simon had originally selected, Jane de Bont from the "Batman" series, Martin Campbell from the "Wonder Woman" series, and Roland Emmerich from the "Superman" series are only Can be regarded as a newcomer or a second-line director.

However, only Simon himself knows that the potential of these people far exceeds the real new directors in memory.

Having considered personal style and other elements in advance, several directors also cherished the opportunity quite a bit, and none of them dared to act arbitrarily.

Therefore, from "Batman: The Dark Knight" to this "Wonder Woman", or even Warner's "Flash," which will be released at the end of the year, three movies, "Batman: The Dark Knight" has been successful It was proved that the shooting results of the other two films also met Simon's expectations.

Just in time for the "Forbes" to announce the new list of the 400 richest Americans for the year, after working during the day, Simon has received various party invitations from the local Italian forces.

Now that he decided to expand into Europe, Simon did not reject the hospitality of the Italian local snake.

Moreover, these people are sincere enough to deliberately choose the meeting place in Naples.

Participating tonight is a gathering of the famous Agnelli family in Italy, on a yacht off Naples.

As the controller of the Fiat Group, the Agnelli family is known as the true ‘royal’ of Italy. Simon, who had the idea of ​​buying Lamborghini before, was included in the Fiat Group.

Of course, the wealth of the Agnelli family is just relative to Italy.

The total wealth of this family is less than 5 billion U.S. dollars.

However, the influence of the Agnelli family on their country is unmatched by emerging rich men like Simon.

Except for Lamborghini, which has had the idea of ​​‘collecting’, Simon has no idea of ​​entering the traditional automobile industry.

As we all know, after entering the new century, the traditional automobile industry will rapidly decline.

However, Simon's participation in this gathering was of course not aimless.

In addition to having a good relationship with Italy, the largest local snake, the two sides actually have many places to cooperate, such as the placement of car ads in the film produced by Daenerys Entertainment.

Car implantation has always been a big advertising item in Hollywood, and the most well-known should be the 007 series to Aston Martin.

In addition, the establishment of this network will definitely benefit the development of the Westeros system in Italy. The Agnelli family also has the idea of ​​going out of Italy and entering North America. The two sides can be described as a hit.

Back to my residence in downtown Naples, it was already ten o'clock at night.

Considering some details of the party tonight, Simon called Los Angeles and Janet talked on the phone as usual, discussed some things about the statement, and finally was teased by Janet, claiming that his aunt was sitting next to him, asking Simon, would you like to go back early?

Naturally it is impossible to advance.

Tomorrow is the opening of Milan Fashion Week.

Gucci's show this fall is scheduled for the day after tomorrow, and Simon must participate in the big show before returning.
