America is in control

Chapter 294 While racking your brains and sleeping clothes (will order tomorrow)
Suddenly there was a script in her hand, and the surprise on Connery's face instantly turned into shock, and she asked in disbelief.

"John, what is this!"

"The script for the next movie of New Caesars Entertainment! Haven't you been looking forward to it?"

Liu Jiang ignored the disappointment flashing in the other person's eyes and said bravely.

"Oh!"

Connery's pink lips pursed so high that he reluctantly responded.

She retracted her hand, put the script aside, picked up the menu and ordered a few dishes.

While waiting for the dishes to be served, Connery carefully read the script.

First of all, the title of the script is very good, Charlie’s Angels, from the looks of it, it’s a drama with a big female lead!

Wait, three heroines! Is there any mistake? What is going on?
Connelly frowned and looked up at General Liu across the dining table, feeling a bad feeling in his heart.

"John, what's going on? Why are there three heroines in the next movie from Caesars Entertainment? Am I just one of them?"

Faced with Connery's somewhat aggressive questioning, General Liu's expression did not change at all. He nodded calmly and replied softly.

"Honey, "Charlie's Angels" is positioned as a comedy action film, and it mainly focuses on female characters. If there is only one heroine, I'm afraid it won't be able to support the entire movie."

"The screenwriter simply set up three heroines to appear as a team. In this way, they can not only cooperate but also make people laugh."

"But, honey, don't worry! You are the absolute C-position in the team. The other two members are just acting as your green leaves, supporting you in the show."

Liu Jiang's face was not red, and his heart was not beating. He came up with the words he had thought of in advance and explained it to Connery.

"Really? John, are you lying to me?"

"By the way, have the actors for the remaining two heroines of "Charlie's Angels" been chosen? They won't be people I know!"

"Catherine Zeta Jones? Charlize Theron? Is it the two of them?"

Connery glanced sideways at General Liu, not believing what he was saying. She simply made it clear and asked the question she was most concerned about.

"Honey, of course it's true! Why should I lie to you? But things are not as good as you think!"

"It is undeniable that I did draw some inspiration from the three of you for the idea of ​​a three-girl band."

"But to have you three in a movie together? Are You Crazy? I've never thought about it that way!"

"Let's not talk about the bad relationship between the three of you. Catherine and Theron are already well-known in Hollywood. How could they be willing to be a green leaf for you again? It's a beautiful idea!"

Liu Jiajiu used real and fake tactics to confront Connery.

"Hmph! They have only acted in a few movies? Are they already famous in Hollywood?"

"John, I think you still don't know enough about Hollywood!"

"Is the inspiration you are talking about the last celebration dinner? The two of them and I were competing overtly and covertly, trying to undermine each other."

Connery scoffed at General Liu's statement and immediately retorted.

"That's right! I was impressed by the performance of the three of you at the celebration dinner last time."

"Honey, didn't you know? Catherine Zeta-Jones has joined the cast of "The Mask of Zorro" on the recommendation of the great director Steven Spielberg."

"The Mask of Zorro is an action-adventure film directed by the famous New Zealand director Martin Campbell. The production cost is staggering!"

"Catherine will play the heroine - Zorro's wife Irina in the film, and will have live scenes with Antonio Banderas and Antonio Hopkins."

In order to achieve the goal of the three beauties on the same stage, Liu will have no choice but to be ruthless and break Connery's illusion.

"How is that possible! John, are you kidding me! How can that little bitch Catherine get such a good opportunity?"

Connery's facial expression was a little out of control, a trace of jealousy flashed in his eyes, and he muttered hatefully.

“Charlie Theron is also doing great! She joined the cast of ‘The Devil’s Advocate’ late last year.”

"The Devil's Advocate is a thriller drama film directed by Taylor Hackford, a famous director from California. The production cost is also high!"

"Theron will play a wife in the film who always sees strange scenes, leading to a complete mental breakdown. She is also the heroine of the film. She will also play the role of Al Pacino, Keanu Reeves and other Hollywood stars. Strong male actors playing opposite roles.”

Feeling that the stimulation was not enough, Liu Jiang added another fierce blow.

Connery pursed his lips and was so angry that he didn’t even want to say anything! She stared at General Liu fiercely, as if she wanted to eat someone!

"Why is Theron's little appearance? She debuted less than three years ago! Is this little appearance sitting on the red sofa of that Hollywood boss?"

After sulking for a while, Connery started to complain wildly, which was very vicious.

"It's all your fault! John! If you hadn't stopped me from having the surgery, maybe I would have been offered a big Hollywood production."

After complaining for a while, Connery still couldn't understand his hatred, so he took out his anger on General Liu.

no way! In the past two years, Liu will not allow her to take on larger-scale scenes, and some sensitive scenes must also use stunt doubles. This has made those LSP directors who came here to retreat.

In addition, Liu will not allow Connery to have surgery, which will make her insulated from movies that require actresses with normal figures.

I heard that my old rival Catherine Zeta-Jones has been very proud of herself recently. She is supported by a noble person (the great director Steven Spielberg) and is a movie star (Antonio Hopkins).

The new opponent, Charlize Theron, is also prospering. He is a big-time production by Warner Bros., and he has the best actor as his sparring partner (Al Pacino).

Connery suddenly felt a little panicked. It seemed that she was the only one who had not made much progress in the past two years, while her opponents were already on the rise.

This is the main reason why she loses control of her emotions and angers others.

Liu Jiang didn't expect Connery's reaction to be so big, so he quickly comforted him softly.

"Jenny, calm down! Don't get excited! Their movie is still in the filming stage and has not been released yet. You still have a chance!" "Baby, trust me, okay? Trust your man! And "Zorro" Compared with "The Mask" and "The Devil's Advocate", "Charlie's Angels" is not bad at all! I am very confident!"

"As long as "Charlie's Angels" can be produced according to my ideas! I can guarantee you that at least in terms of box office results, you will never lose!"

"Of course, the remaining two heroines must find suitable actresses, but this is not easy to do!"

After hearing General Liu's assurance, Connery's eyes regained their luster.

She raised her head and looked at General Liu with sharp eyes, trying to judge whether he was bragging.

The expression on the little lion's face was very determined, he seemed to really think so! I don’t know where he got his confidence from!
That's right, the first movie of the new Caesars Entertainment Company, "Looking for the Midnight Kiss," created a box office miracle with its small success.

The film he directed has achieved such brilliant results, Liu Jiang is certainly qualified to be confident! Maybe I should trust him unconditionally, after all, the other party has never let me down!
After making up his mind, Connery asked tentatively.

"John, are you really sure? Is the market prospect of "Charlie's Angels" so good? You must know that "The Mask of Zorro" and "The Devil's Advocate" both have movie stars participating! The production cost of the two movies. "

General Liu raised his head confidently, gave Connery a look of affirmation, and said firmly.

"Honey, I not only have confidence in myself! I also have confidence in you! Are you kidding? You are the dream of a generation in America!"

"The script of "Charlie's Angels" is very good! When making a film, as long as the management is in place and the requirements are strict, the quality of the film can still be controlled."

"As for the production cost, you can quote it higher! As long as there is no problem with the quality of the movie, the audience won't be able to tell the difference!"

The first movie of the new Caesars Entertainment Company, "Looking for the Midnight Kiss," was the first work of a start-up production company, and no one would believe the inflated production cost, so Liu Jiang simply didn't play it off.

Hearing Liu Jiang say this, Connelly's mood improved a little. She thought for a moment and continued to ask.

"Little Lion, you just said that the remaining two heroines must find suitable actresses. Is this difficult to do? Can't we hold an open audition?"

General Liu nodded towards Connery and said slowly.

"Honey, if we want to hold open auditions, it is best if all three heroines are selected through auditions. Otherwise, someone will question your qualifications to participate."

"In the unlikely event that Katherine and Theron come to audition, and as you know, I'm inspired by the three of you, there's a high chance that Katherine and Theron will have the upper hand in the audition."

"When the time comes, should I choose them? Or not choose them? If I really choose them, you will definitely be unhappy!"

"If I don't choose them, wouldn't it mean that I'm teasing them? I don't want to do this kind of thing that offends people on both sides!"

Connelly glanced at General Liu suspiciously. She always felt that the other party was playing some trick. Unfortunately, she could not find any evidence.

"Actually, it's quite a pity to say that! Catherine and Theron's unreleased movies are all big-budget movies, and they are very likely to be successful at the box office."

"Once the two movies are successful, their salary will definitely increase sharply, and their popularity will also increase."

"If we can sign them while their salaries are cheap, then the market prospects of "Charlie's Angels" will be raised to another level."

General Liu shook his head with pretense of regret, looking at Connery across the dining table for a moment.

He secretly glanced at the big cream cake from the corner of his eye. Seeing that the suspicion on the other party's face still hadn't completely dissipated, Liu Jiang secretly sighed, it was still a bit too forced!

But this is the limit of what I can do now! No more mistakes can be made, beware of going too far and not doing enough!
After listening to General Liu's words, Connery held his cheek with one hand and lowered his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.

After a while, the chef of the three-star Michelin restaurant walked out pushing the dining cart.

He came to Liu Jiang's table and introduced the dishes he had just ordered to the two of them.

Liu Jiang and Connery were very cooperative. They nodded slightly and showed expressions of approval.

The restaurant chef was very happy. His beard twitched and he spoke a little briskly.

"Mr. John, I am your boxing fan, can you sign your autograph for me?"

After introducing the dishes, the restaurant chef took out a pen and a notebook, walked to General Liu and spoke softly.

"Sure!"

Liu Jiang smiled and nodded, reaching out to take the pen and paper.

"And me! And me!" "New Caesar, can you sign your autograph for me too?" "Boxing champion, when is your first light heavyweight match?"

No one expected that when Liu Jiang agreed to the request of the restaurant chef, several diners nearby also came over.

There is no way, signing one is also signing, signing several is also signing!
"Okay!" "No problem!" "It's coming soon, I won't keep you waiting for long! Let me tell you a piece of news quietly, my current competitive state is excellent!"

Liu Jiang responded with a smile while speeding up his signing.

Connery looked at Liu Jiang who was busy across the dining table, and suddenly felt a sense of crisis in his heart.

There are many diners in this Michelin three-star restaurant, but no one wants to sign his autograph. Does this mean that my popularity has long been inferior to that of my little boyfriend John?
If the situation develops further, will the situation that I was most worried about appear?
After the popularity gap between the two completely widened, Hollywood's bees and butterflies flocked to her little boyfriend like a tidal wave. The little boyfriend and she were not married and had no children.
Perhaps what awaits him is the same fate of being dumped like Alicia Silverstone!
no! Absolutely not! Connery feels that he can no longer do without General Liu! She loves this man so much!
I need a box-office success movie to increase my popularity! Perhaps "Charlie's Angels" is the best choice!

Connery's heart began to waver, and her love for General Liu and her worries about their future gradually overcame her disgust for Catherine and Theron.

General Liu acted quickly, and the restaurant chef and the boxing fans left happily after getting the autographs.

The candlelight dinner that followed seemed a bit dull. It's not that the food was not delicious. On the contrary, the food in this Michelin three-star restaurant was extremely delicious.

Mainly because Connery glanced at the script on the table from time to time while eating, and seemed a little absent-minded.

Liu Jiang did not feel that the other party's behavior ruined the atmosphere of the candlelight dinner. On the contrary, he was even a little happy.

Because Liu Jiang feels that he is getting closer and closer to achieving his goal!
After having their fill of wine and food, the two held hands and slowly walked out of the door of the three-star Michelin restaurant.

On the way back to the French mansion, Connelly rested his head gently on General Liu's thick shoulder.

"Little Lion, do you think the two of us can make it to the end?"
