Chapter 252 Manor Night Banquet
After deciding to take on the film, Link handed the negotiations over to Sam Haskell, asking him to act as the representative and continue negotiating with Warner Bros. to see if there was a chance to get more sincere terms from Warner.

After discussing work, the butler came over and said lunch was ready, and Link invited the two to eat in the banquet room in the middle.

The banquet room is on the east side of the villa. It is a larger and more luxuriously decorated landscape room.

The banqueting room is connected to the corridor and the pavilion, with panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows on all four sides, facing the various beautiful scenery in the villa, including mountains, water, gardens, and a clear canal flowing underground. The surrounding layout is exquisite and ingenious.

This is the place where the host family specially uses to entertain guests.

Today's guests are just two, Sam Haskell and Richard Fox.

There were four guests, Sandra Bullock, Renée Zellweger, Julianne Moore and Jennifer Lopez.

Originally, Link thought that the four of them would not appear in such an occasion because they were concerned about their personal reputations.

But before the banquet began, the four of them changed into beautiful banquet attires and appeared in the restaurant one after another. They greeted Sam and Richard politely, and then sat next to Link.

Richard Fox was stunned when he saw the four people appear one after another.

Before, he was envious of Link for taking four beauties with him on vacation, but now he was completely jealous, nakedly jealous.

He is also a man, so naturally he has a lover.

His relationship with his lover was very secretive. On the one hand, his lover didn't want others to know about their relationship, and on the other hand, he didn't want his wife to know about it, so they were in a big mess.

Sandra Bullock and the other three are public figures, but they appeared in such occasions openly, which shows that they don't mind outsiders knowing their private relationship with Link, nor do they care about such scandals.

Richard Fox admired Link's skills in picking up girls very much and was ready to find an opportunity to discuss it with Link.

But when he saw that Sandra Bullock and the other three all had big breasts and big butts, they would definitely consume a lot of fuel, and he felt that it was unnecessary.

"Sam, Richard, let me introduce you. This is Ms. Renée Zellweger, Ms. Julianne Moore, Ms. Sandra Bullock, and Ms. Jennifer Lopez. Like you, they are here to discuss work."

Link introduced generously.

Renée Zellweger and Jennifer Lopez smiled and held his arms nonchalantly.

Richard Fox's eyes twitched. You call this the same as us? We are not like that.

"Let's sit down and chat. We are all in the same circle, so it will be lively while eating and chatting."

After everyone sat down, Link clapped his hands, and the villa manager called on the servants to serve delicious food.

The villa's housekeeper is called Waru, a local Hawaiian native in his forties. He usually lives in the servants' villa with his wife and children. He is responsible for taking care of the estate, beach, botanical garden, etc.

Every time before Link comes here for vacation, he will give notice in advance, and the Waru family will make preparations in advance, including hiring chefs and more servants to serve Link.

The Waru family is down-to-earth and capable. They keep the villa in good order and provide attentive service, which is why Link continues to employ them.

The food used to entertain guests in the villa is mainly local delicacies, including barbecue, fruits, seafood, and a large table with a wide variety of food.

During the meal, Link and Sandra Bullock talked about the new scripts she brought, "Married at Second Sight" and "The Internet". Originally, Sandra Bullock's purpose was to ask him to take a look at the two scripts and see which one was more suitable for investment.

After reading it, Link felt it was good.

"Love at Second Sight" tells the story of a woman who falls in love with a pair of brothers but doesn't know how to choose. Compared with other romance films, it has a certain novelty.

"The Network" tells the story of a programmer who meets an unreliable netizen, and who is murdered because of a computer disk he receives from the netizen.

The Internet age has not yet arrived, there are not many Internet users, and social platforms have not been established. This movie is one of the earliest mainstream Hollywood movies to reveal Internet crimes. Although the setting of identity dislocation is relatively old-fashioned, the new way of survival in the information society, the new rules of the game, and the new characteristics of crimes in the Internet age shown in the script are relatively innovative.

It has inspired later films such as "The Matrix" and "The Network".

Both of these films have the potential to be box office hits if they are made well.

Link said he was willing to invest in either one, as "Net" was a thriller that suited his taste, and if he had the time, he would consider directing it himself.

"Really?"

When Sandra Bullock heard his words, she happily hugged his neck and kissed him on the face, her face flushed with excitement.

If there hadn't been two strangers at the table, Sam and Richard Fox, she would probably have sat directly in his arms like the night before.

Sam and Richard Fox, who were enjoying their meal, looked at each other and curled their lips secretly.

Just now they saw Link and Sandra Bullock talking about the script while eating, and they thought Link was not lying, Sandra Bullock was indeed here to discuss work, the two of them did not have a messy relationship, and Sandra was also a decent and good woman.

But before they could finalize the idea, Sandra Bullock hugged Link and nibbled him, with a charming blush on her face.

It goes without saying that there is an affair going on in this situation.

"Sandra, congratulations on finding two more great roles."

Renée Zellweger smiled, holding up her juice glass.

"Thank you. I also followed Link's advice and read more scripts and chose the characters I like. You can also try it. After you find the script, come to Link for guidance. He will agree to help."

Sandra Bullock smiled slightly.

Julianne Moore and Jennifer Lopez also raised their glasses to congratulate.

"Link, I found a good script. Can I take a look at it with you?"

Jennifer Lopez is a newcomer and an immigrant. She is the least famous among the few people. She usually does not fight for anything and puts herself in a low position. She is also the one who is most willing to endure hardships.

"anytime."

"Great."

Jennifer Lopez also happily kissed his cheek.

Sam and Richard Fox looked at each other and felt full and a little bloated.

"Link, if Guess What Films needs a partner for its film projects, we at Warner Bros. are happy to work with you."

Richard Fox said, holding his glass.

"That's fine. Guess What Pictures has never thought of being a lone warrior and eating alone. We are also willing to cooperate with more peers to make more, better and more profitable movies."

"Haha, Link, I'm glad to hear you say that. You are much more graceful and intelligent than the rumors say. I hope we will have more cooperation in the future."

The two men clinked their glasses.

Sandra Bullock and others also raised their glasses, expressing their hope for the opportunity to work with Warner Bros. Pictures.
