Dominating Hollywood: Starting with Scarlett

Chapter 122 Tokyo Hospitality
  "Awesome... Well, to put it simply, it means literally, awesome. Do you understand, Quentin?" Tang De tried his best to teach Quentin in clean language.

Quentin spread his hands: "So that's what it means, but I'm still curious, why do you use awesome to describe a person who is very powerful?"

"Maybe it's because it's big enough!" Tang De joked, and then said seriously: "This word evolved from ancient fertility worship in the long history of China. It is a neutral word. For example, you When you see a person with great kung fu, you can praise him for being awesome. When you see a naked pervert, you can also say that he is awesome. Just like what we often say, WTF, OMG! Its meaning is shock, admiration, it all depends on the use. What context does the author use it in?"

"I see, I understand, awesome, Don!"

Quentin learned and applied it flexibly, and immediately gave Tang De a thumbs up to praise him.

The two bragged for a while and found that they had some similar feelings. The more they chatted, the more excited they became.

Especially when it comes to the topic of women, Quentin seems even more excited: "Tang, what do you think is the sexiest part of a woman's body?"

"It's the feet, there's no doubt about it." Tang De expressed his thoughts without any hesitation.

Quentin looked at Tang De with wide eyes: "Wow, you are thinking the same as me, Tang, yes, it should be the feet!"

Tang De smiled. He knew Quentin's little quirks very well. In every one of his movies, the naked feet of actresses would appear.

Whether it's the dancing bare feet in "Pulp Fiction", the naked feet of hundreds of people in "Kill Bill", or the various close-ups of naked feet in "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood", it's enough to prove that Quentin is an out-and-out foot fetishist. .

There is also something even more exciting. In "Until Dawn" written by him, Quentin played a killer with mental problems.

He met a charming dancer in the bar. When the dancer stood on the table and danced, he looked at the dancer longingly. Then the dancer poured red wine on her knees, stretched out her feet, and inserted them into Quentin's mouth. The red wine flowed down her feet and into his mouth, and he looked like he was enjoying it.

Even his favorite actor and good friend Brad Pitt joked at an award ceremony: "Thanks to my colleagues, Margot Robbie's feet, Margaret Worley's feet, and Darwin Kota Fanning’s feet. Seriously, Quentin Tarantino has asked more women to take off their shoes than the TSA has ever asked.”

This matter will be known to everyone in the future, and Quentin does not feel ashamed. Even when he meets a fan by chance and asks Quentin to sign her bare feet, Quentin is willing to do so. It can be said that he really loves naked feet. Deeper.

But Tang De is not that addicted. To him, every part of a woman is beautiful, and he appreciates every part.

And he prefers black stockings to bare feet.

The white stockings are too thin, the red stockings are too showy, the fleshy stockings are not as good as bare legs, and the black ones look more mysterious, unknown, and full of temptation.

After communicating with Quentin for a moment, the other actors were finally ready. Quentin reluctantly stopped talking to Tang De, picked up the microphone and entered work.

And Tang De was also watching the filming process of "Kill Bill".

Quentin's directing style is not as violent as Don De, nor as peaceful as Rob. He is like a big monkey, running around in different corners all the time, telling the crew and actors his thoughts, and at the same time he He often gives examples from various old movies so that others can understand his intentions.

For Tang De, this efficiency is undoubtedly slower, but it is much better than Rob.

In the evening, after filming a scene, Quentin enthusiastically invited Tang De to have a drink.

Now that I have come to Tokyo, of course I want to go to an izakaya, and Tang De does it. Quentin also called Uma Thurman and Lucy Liu, but the two women were not interested in drinking. They wanted to go shopping in Ginza, the most prosperous shopping mall in Tokyo.

So in the end there were only Tang De and Quentin, but just when they were about to leave, Ogawa Sugikai suddenly jumped out.

"Please wait a moment! Sorry!" Without saying a word, he bowed first, and then said with a smile in the doubtful eyes of the two people: "The president of HORIPRO is waiting for the two distinguished guests in Kuroki. I don't know if they are here." Are you willing to move forward with honor?"

Tang De and Quentin looked at each other: "What the hell, Quentin?"

"I don't know..." Quentin was also a little confused, and then he came over and explained in a low voice: "Ogawa was introduced by Tokyo Partner Company. He knows this place well. He took care of the hotel and venue. Maybe someone passed He wanted to see both of us."

"But what does this have to do with me?" Tang De frowned: "I'm just a temporary art director!"

"Who knows, Don, but I guess why not just do as you please?"

"As the guest does, the host does as he pleases? Quentin, you are really a Chinese idiom. You know all these idioms."

"I like Chinese idioms, awesome!"

"Well, he can't swallow us up, so let's do whatever we want."

After the discussion, Quentin stood up straight and said: "Let's go, Xiaochuan."

The smile on Ogawa Sugikai's face became brighter and he nodded: "Hi! You two, please come over here!"

After leaving the door, a stretched Lincoln parked in front of the door. After Tang De and Quentin got in the car, before they had time to feel the luxurious Lincoln's red sofa, they were amazed by the sight in front of them and said "Wow".

Because right opposite them, two twin sisters sat with the same sweet faces, the same ponytail hairstyle, and wore dark purple cheongsams with high slits, from which a pair of white and flawless thighs were exposed. "Don, is this how Asians treat guests?" Quentin's throat rolled, and he slowly sat down on the sofa with his hands on his hands.

Tang De, on the other hand, seemed much calmer, but he had never seen the twins drama before, so he could only raise his lips: "This is a way of hospitality unique to Tokyoites, but you have to be careful, the more they pay, the more they pay." The more it takes, you know, damn capitalism.”

"Yeah, yes, damn capitalism." Quentin agreed extremely, but at the same time, his tone was accompanied by enjoyment.

Ogawa Sugikai was no longer the driver this time, but sat in the passenger seat. He smiled and said to the two of them: "These two, the elder sister Suzuki Motomi is on the left, and the younger sister Suzuki Fukae is on the right. They are very knowledgeable about foot arts." The technique is very exquisite and can definitely meet the needs of the two distinguished guests and relieve everyone's fatigue.

"Please enjoy it slowly..."

When he finished speaking, the two sisters said at the same time: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry! (Forgive me for being rude)"

After saying that, they reached out and took off Tang De and Quentin's shoes, and also thoughtfully helped them take off their socks. Then he took out a basin filled with flower petals from under the seat and let the two of them soak their feet.

"Phew!" Quentin used to look at other women's beautiful feet, but now it was his turn and he felt a little shy.

Tang De could face it easily. After all, he was an experienced driver. This kind of foot-pinching scene was a trivial matter. He was just curious whether the skills of these two girls could catch up with the foot-pinching skills of the Sichuan and Chongqing regions in China.

Soon, on a very stable car, the two of them finished washing their feet within five minutes.

Immediately afterwards came the formal foot skills session, "Tsk!" Feeling a pair of weak, boneless hands vigorously kneading his feet, Quentin's face suddenly wrinkled up, and he felt a sense of relief and pain radiating from the bottom of his heart. .

Perhaps foot pinching is the most primitive SM game for mankind.

But when he was tortured by the slight soreness and pain and couldn't speak, Tang De was chatting and laughing happily. He talked with Suzuki Motomi in fluent Japanese.

"Yuanmei, how old are you this year?"

Suzuki Motomi looked at Tang De in surprise. She didn't expect that this guest could speak such standard Japanese. However, she had been trained not to show her emotions too much. She answered honestly: "I am 19 years old. .”

"Where is your sister?" Tang De looked at Suzuki Fukae.

"She missed me by a minute."

"How many years have you been learning this craft?"

"I've been studying for three years."

Have you been learning this craft since you were 16? Tang De thought about it in his mind and said tentatively: "In three years, your life in the group must be very boring, right?"

"No, we are doing very well, sir." As soon as Suzuki Motomi finished answering, she vaguely realized that she seemed to have leaked some information, and she immediately lowered her head and shut her mouth.

Ogawa Sugikai didn't hear what Suzuki Motomi said because of the soundproof glass in the front row.

Only Tang De nodded secretly. Sure enough, the only guys in Tokyo who had such financial resources and were so particular about pomp and circumstance were the underworld organizations.

I don’t know whether it was the Yamaguchi-gumi or the Sumiyoshi-kai. In fact, he only learned about this history after playing the "Yakuza" series of games in college.

Before 2003, Kabukicho was Tokyo's largest entertainment area and a world-famous red light district, where various gangs competed for dominance in this area.

Among them, the Sumiyoshi-kai is the most powerful. According to statistics, in the Kabukicho area, there are about 120 offices of the Sumiyoshi-kai and other organizations, and there are 1000 active gang members in the town.

This is a very scary number, and there are also a lot of organized crimes involving foreigners.

Only after 2003, the Japanese Immigration Bureau launched a vigorous crackdown on this, and at the end of 2004, the government launched a large-scale ban on Kabukicho.

Many illegal sex shops and adult shops have been shut down. The "Kabukicho Renaissance" project was launched with the purpose of large-scale redevelopment and expelling the underworld organizations from Kabukicho.

But even so, the underworld is still rampant in this area. It was not until 2020 that in order to ensure the absolute safety of the Tokyo Olympics, the government and the police were determined to attack the entire Kabukicho and seek complete purification!
  So at this moment, the gangsters still firmly control Kabukicho and various red light districts to carry out illegal operations.

Sisters like Suzuki are one of the epitome of that.

It's just that this has nothing to do with Tang De. He just wants to know what these gangsters want to do with him and Quentin, especially himself. He doesn't seem to be famous. Why was he invited?

Or is Quentin the main target and he is just incidental?
