Chapter 040 (1/2)

After two hours at the reception, Simon and Janet left just after 9:30.

On Sunset Boulevard, red faced Janet leaned against the slightly open window and blew for a while. Then she looked at Simon beside her and said, ”little boy, are you going to agree?”

Simon nodded: ”yes, Orion's conditions are still very sincere.”

”But,” said Janet, tilting her head, ”they only give you a week to try, so you're not afraid they'll kick you out on purpose?”

Simon naturally has such worries. He is not an innocent person, and he knows that Hollywood is full of innumerable intrigues. However, if he wants to launch ”Lola Run” in the short term, he can not have other better options. Moreover, at the reception just now, Brian De Palma gave Simon another guarantee.

”Didn't you just hear that? Brian said that as long as Orion finally chooses me as the director, he can be the executive producer of the film

Although Bryan De Palma's fame is far less effective than Spielberg's, and in the last two years, he is still a well-known director in Hollywood. It's still possible to add a lot of attention to this film by being named as an executive producer in a completely new work.

In addition, Simon also has enough confidence in his own strength. As long as Orion does not intend to capture the film maliciously at the beginning, he believes it will have a very good result.

However, in this way, the debt will be bigger and bigger.

What's more, Orion, with a budget of $1 million, naturally won't agree with Sandra, a new unqualified actress, to play the leading role, which is also a problem.

Janet, sitting on the co pilot's seat, noticed Simon's frowning and silence for a moment. ”If you hadn't donated that money, you would have been able to make this movie now, wouldn't you?”

Simon heard that Janet suddenly mentioned it again. He glanced at the woman and saw that she was slightly sorry. He said, ”this has nothing to do with you. If I want to keep the money, none of you will want to take it from me.”

Janet blinked her eyes, a little more dissatisfied in her expression, and insisted, ”it doesn't matter. It must be.”

Simon laughed, stopped answering and began to concentrate on driving.

Janet, like a little girl, turned her head and suddenly seemed to get angry with Simon.

Ford went along the winding Sunset Boulevard at the foot of Santa Monica mountain. After more than ten minutes, Janet noticed a neon billboard on the side of the road, then turned her head again and said, ”Hey, it's past palisade. Are you lost?”

Palisade belongs to the semi mountain luxury residential area on the western edge of the downtown Los Angeles section of the Santa Monica Mountains. Although it still belongs to the city of Santa Monica, it goes further to the end of Sunset Avenue and turns to California Highway 1, which is the Malibu area.

This side has obviously missed the Montana district where Simon lives.

Simon shook his head and said, ”no, don't you live in Malibu? I'll take you back. ”

Janet curled her lips and said contemptuously, ”coward, you're afraid I'll stay at your house.”

Simon smiles and says, ”you're drinking.”

Jeanette was stunned, but a little unconvinced, and said, ”did you drink, too?”

Simon only drank a very light cocktail at the beginning of the reception, which was not as strong as beer. Janet asked the waiter to mix a high concentration vodka after he talked with Mike medova. Simon naturally didn't trust the woman to drive back like this.

Seeing that Janet was still looking at herself, Simon shrugged and said, ”so I'm a man. Even if I'm caught by the police, I'll go to jail.”

When Janet heard Simon's words, her long eyelashes flashed a few times, and suddenly she seemed to soften down, leaning sideways against the seat, her eyes full of water.

Simon felt that the woman beside him suddenly did not move. He turned his head and took a look. He immediately pretended to be scared and had a cold war. He said, ”don't look like this. People are not delicious at all.”

Janet blinked a few more times, suddenly reached over and pinched Simon's waist mercilessly. She said bitterly, ”asshole, you are really a little asshole.”

With all this noise, Ford had already come to a mansion near malibudume park.

Simon stopped and looked at Janet, who was still on the co pilot's seat, gasping like a little girl. After a pause, he leaned over and gave Janet a kiss on her cheek and said, ”OK, good night, go back to bed early. Also, lend me the car and give it back to you tomorrow. ”

Jeanette found that when Simon came up, she raised her cheek and let him kiss her. She immediately felt that she was too disheartened. But, hearing Simon's advice, she nodded and reluctantly pushed the door to get off.
