Chapter 55 Fly to Sydney, I’ve been looking for you
Qin Feng started the car.

Scarlett leaned back and said, "Qin, just drive as you please. I want to go for a ride."

"Okay, if you feel sleepy, you can take a nap first."

The car drove onto the road, and Qin Feng controlled the speed steadily.

After a while, Scarlett felt sleepy and fell asleep.

Qin Feng clicked on the center console and switched to a set of soothing English songs.

He glanced at Scarlett and smiled.

The Ford Mustang drove steadily forward.

After half an hour.

The car stopped in the parking lot of a seafood restaurant.

Scarlett woke up slowly.

"Scarlett, you're awake."

"Um……"

"Are you hungry? Let's go eat."

"okay."

The two got out of the car, and Scarlett took Qin Feng's arm and walked all the way to the restaurant.

The restaurant is very high-end and there are three waiters at the door.

The interior is decorated like an aquarium, with large and small fish tanks and a variety of seafood.

Qin Feng looked around in surprise. There were some fish and shellfish that he had never seen before. At first glance, they were caught in the sea.

The two ordered a rock lobster, tuna fillet, several plates of sea urchin and shellfish, and two bottles of juice.

Qin Feng picked up the juice and said, "Scarlett, congratulations on your completion. I and the people of all races in Los Angeles welcome you back."

Scarlett clinked glasses with him, "I don't care about people of all races. The main thing is do you miss me?"

"Think about it!" Qin Feng took a sip, "I think about it every day, my head is buzzing."

"Are you suffering from insomnia?" Scarlett smiled.

Qin Feng gave her a large piece of shrimp meat.

"But, Scarlett, something is very unlucky."

"what happened?"

"Didn't the filming of my movie start? Our crew will go to Australia the day after tomorrow."

"Huh? Are you leaving the day after tomorrow?"

Scarlett frowned slightly. She had just come back and Qin Feng was about to leave.

"Yes."

"How long?"

"Estimated 30 days."

"Oh..." She thought for a while, "It's okay. I'll go home and clean up for a few days. I'll go to Australia to find you in a few days."

"Are you okay over there?" Qin Feng asked.

"It's okay, I'm on vacation during this period."

"Yeah." Qin Feng nodded, "That's good. We can go to Australia for a few more days, but the crew is busy, so I may not be with you most of the time."

"It's okay. I've never been to Australia. I can go around on my own."

Scarlett said with a smile.

After hearing what she said, Qin Feng's mood became brighter.

"Miss Scarlett, I wish you a happy trip to Australia in advance!"

"Mr. Qin Feng, please don't worry, I will be happy with you by my side."

The two clink glasses.

……

The crew chartered a flight to Sydney, Australia.

Sydney, located on the southeastern coast of Australia, is the country's largest city with a population of 500 million. It consists of the Sydney urban area and 33 suburbs.

Due to its outstanding economic development, it is known as the "New York" of the Southern Hemisphere.

The plane flew for 14 hours and finally landed at Sydney Airport.

Colleagues from the location selection department had already come to pick me up at the airport and arrange hotel accommodation and other related matters.

The entire crew stayed at a Holiday Inn in southern Sydney.

After moving in, Qin Feng summoned the heads of various departments and held a meeting to discuss the precautions and the next progress.

There is also a local actors guild that can assist in recruiting extras and filming.

The crew needs to rest for a day. If everything goes well, they will be able to start work the day after tomorrow.

The next day, Qin Feng, together with the location selection team leader and other persons in charge, went to the city's business district to check out the shooting location.

It's a relatively prosperous place with dense high-rise buildings, so it's possible to film a scene where Neo is in danger at work during the day before he meets Morpheus.

You can now shoot the parts that you haven’t had time to shoot before.There were no problems with the venue or building. The crew communicated with the building management about the shooting time and floor, and went through the relevant procedures.

Early on the third day, all departments were in place.

"B036, scene 2, third shot! Get ready...Action!"

Neo is working in the office.

A security guard came over, holding a document bag, "Are you Neo?"

"Yes." Neo signed and took the document bag.

After the security guard left.

He opened it and took out a mobile phone.

Close-up, the cell phone suddenly rings.

Neo was startled and answered the phone: "Hello?"

A deep male voice came:

"Hello Neo, do you know who I am?"

"You are Morpheus..."

"Yes, I've been looking for you."

"I want to show you something. I don't know if you're ready, but I don't have time."

"They're coming for you, and I don't know what they want to do."

"Who came after me?" Neo asked doubtfully.

"Stand up and see for yourself, now."

Neo stood up.

"Slow down, direction to the elevator!"

He quietly stood up and looked towards the elevator. There were several men in black asking around, seemingly looking for someone.

Suddenly, the man in black turned his head and looked in his direction. They all wore sunglasses, like agents.

Neo quickly squatted down, "Oh hell!"

Several agents came over, led by Agent Smith (Hugo Weaving).

Neo held the phone, a little flustered, and whispered: "What do they want to do?"

"I don't know. If you don't want to figure it out, leave quickly! I can guide you, but you must strictly follow it."

"OK, hurry up!"

"The workshop opposite you is empty, go quickly!"

Neo bent down and rushed to the opposite side.

By this time, the agents had arrived at his original workstation, and could not see him for the time being due to the obstruction of the partition.

Neo leaned against the partition, not daring to express his anger.

The agents split up.

Morpheus: "Listen to my instructions, go to the end of this row, to the office in the corner, and leave now!"

Neo squatted all the way and quickly ran out, avoiding the agents.

Following the mentioned route, we found the office in the corner and locked the door.

There is no one inside.

"Good, there's a lift outside." Morpheus said.

"How do you know?" Neo was a little crazy.

"No time to explain. There is a window on your left. Open it."

"Climb along the lift's scaffolding to the top of the building."

Neo opened the window and took a look. This was over twenty floors up. "No! Are you crazy?"

"Either use scaffolding or be escorted out by them. Choose one of the two. It's your choice."

After Morpheus finished speaking, the phone hung up.

Neo gasped: "This is ridiculous! How could this happen to me... I didn't do anything... I will die."

He hesitated for a moment and climbed out of the window.

The crew tied him up with safety ropes and wires in advance, and several people specially held him.

Neo looked down and felt dizzy.

He shrank back in fear, "What the hell!"

After adjusting his breathing, he moved to the side along the window sill.

You can already see the elevator, but there is a 30-centimetre-thick wall between them, so you have to go around it from the air.

Close shot, a strong wind blows, Neo loses his grip and the phone falls.

He quickly grabbed the wall, completely confused.

"No! I can't do it!"
