Chapter 54: Good News from Gore

 Jenny knew it was time for her to get the scales right.

 "I know you. She shook Gore's hand warmly, "I've seen you around Agata "

 In fact, every adult with normal intelligence is a self-taught genius in sex and love, and in addition to novels and TV dramas that take it as their responsibility to arrange conflicts and conflicts, in daily life, the bloody "I have loved you for many years, but you don't know anything about it" story is often buried behind a bloody truth: "I already knew, but I just don't want to tell it." Starting with the two strangers we had just met, the eyes, body language, micro-expressions, and tone of voice ... There are so many indications that reveal whether one person has a 'sexual' interest in another person, and whether the other person is not interested or is interested in himself, and it is impossible to hide it, after all, in a long primitive society, whether two people can reach an agreement is not based on the language that was not yet fully formed at that time, but on the intuition composed of these various information.

 In other words, Gore's interest in Jenny was completely clear in her eyes, and although it was the first time she had spoken to him, once the two had talked, Jenny knew his state of mind at a glance: Ah, yes, he was attracted to her, and he had a strong sexual interest in her, but man was not an animal driven by instinct, and Gore now looked at Jenny as much as the employees of Chen Zhen's ex-husband looked at her, although he knew that she was beautiful, he also knew that she could not touch her.

 As a wealthy young woman who doesn't want to cause trouble, having a normal relationship with these potential admirers is also a must-have lesson for Chen Zhen, and she reins in all the small actions that may cause misunderstandings, although enthusiastic, but this enthusiasm is a commercial passion - Jenny does not hide her interest in Gore's business, this is a very simple reasoning question, Cesare may have favored Gore through the line of Rob Agata Gore, Agata is not close to him, and certainly will not hide anything for Cesare. Gore should have known that Cesare had an interest in Pirates of the Caribbean.

 "I think you've heard of me besides you've seen me. "It's the same is deeply interested but didn't make a move, Gore's performance is several times better than Dave doesn't know how old he is, he pretends to be quite like words, and the reserved taste of the business card director comes out. "I've heard that both you and your agent are interested in Pirates of the Caribbean. "

 He was willing to get straight to the point, and Jeanne certainly cooperated, "I guess so, otherwise Cesare wouldn't have strongly invited you to the show." Jenny smiled self-deprecatingly, "But based on your performance, I guess I'm out of action?"

 "A young actress like you will never be out of play. Gore replied, "But I have a very strange habit, and it's because you're very playful that I deliberately avoid you - you know, it's work, business should be done, what I want to know is not how easy you are to talk to, how attractive you are in private, what I want to know is whether you can always be dedicated during dozens of days of shooting, whether your acting skills are consistent, and even the details of your typhoon and performance, this is what I want to know." "

 His acting skills are really good, and if Jenny didn't know anything about it, she might really buy it.

 Although Chen Zhen has also seen some intrigue in social situations around her ex-husband, Hollywood has opened her eyes, and now Gore thinks that he has hidden his mental journey well, and Jenny is the simple and lovely person who does not need to know the current state of his marriage and his love for blonde and blue eyes and interest in J.J.J. - it's like ballet, and she gracefully spins in circles under Gore's leadership.

 And Jenny, too, thought that she had kept the chastity ring a good secret, and Gore didn't need to know that she knew, didn't need to know that Jenny was the one who stood still and raised her hands to lead the dance.

 "So, did you come to talk to me today, do you mean that I have finally failed?" She did not pretend to be frustrated, but learned from Cesare, to restrain all the emotions that were not necessary, and to try to be calm, business, and professional. It does work at some point, and for Gore, the less feminine she is, the better.

 "Quite the opposite. Gore raised his glass and touched her lightly, "I hope you'll make time to audition for Pirates of the Caribbean." "

 Jenny's brow furrowed, and she secretly wished that she had expressed her astonishment in a restrained and natural way—of course, a little doubt was necessary. "May I ask you why you made this decision all of a sudden?"

 "In fact, on the first night I watched Chicago, I realized I was watching a great show. When it comes to work, Gore is also slowly getting into shape, and Jenny can clearly see the change in his body language: now Gore is no longer influenced by Jeanne's appearance, just like Cesare and Jaime, and when they talk about work, Jenny is just a tool, a commodity, a symbol for calculation. "You're an expressive actress, with great looks, excellent acting, and most importantly, I think you have a temperament-"

 Gore furrowed his eyebrows, as if searching for the right words, but gave up and quoted Agata directly, "As Agata said to me, you have a magic that can bring the audience into the play, and you can keep their attention firmly on you." If in Hollywood, actors with acting skills and good looks are rare animals, then I have to say that you have a rare talent that can propel you to the top. "

 "I can boldly say that of all the actresses I've worked with, I've only seen a similar temperament to you in Julia Roberts, and you're more beautiful than her," he said. "

 Jenny pressed her hands down and made a humble gesture, "You're too much of a prize, Mr. Vibinski." "

 "No, at best, it just means that I haven't worked with enough famous actors. Gore joked instead, "Of course, I know your resume is flawed, otherwise your agent wouldn't want to go the in-person recommendation route, but what I value is not your resume, I need a beautiful new face with acting skills, I came to New York because the casting in Hollywood didn't go well, I met a good person, then I have no reason to give up the opportunity to make the movie better because of my resume or other reasons." "

 For other reasons, his eyes drifted a little, but soon became clear and determined, and Gore spoke of the film with a kind of pious fanaticism. "But I have to make sure that you have the ability to hold up the whole movie, I'm talking about a big A-level production with an investment of hundreds of millions, and although you played "Chicago" is also a whole play, the time period is long enough, but this is not the same thing as a green screen film at all. "

 Jenny now comes to believe that the motivation to make Gore watch for nine days in a row is not her beauty - of course she is beautiful, and Gore likes her very much, but first of all, he can't see her face clearly when watching musicals, and he has many other ways to appreciate her looks - he watches Nine Days to make sure that Jenny is not qualified to play the heroine, if it weren't for the strength she showed to match the heroine of "Pirates of the Caribbean", even if she was his muse reincarnation, this man has enough self The temptation to leave this million-dollar risk, even if you want to hook up, will wait until the divorce is done before coming back.

 It's shrewd, and it seems a little cold, but it also makes Jenny feel a little more fond of him, she doesn't care about Gore's penchant for cheating and cheating, but she doesn't want to work with an unprofessional director. "So in the last ten days—"

 "I haven't been absent from your show. Gore smiled restrainedly, and he extended his hand to Jenny again, "I have made my judgment - congratulations, Miss Jefferson, you have been given this audition." "

 Jenny restrained the joy and smile that swept through her body, "Thank you for your appreciation. "

 It took longer than usual for the two hands to part, and Gore seemed reluctant to let go of his hand, and Jenny felt a change in his state: after the work was over, instinct came to make trouble again.

 "If you can – of course, if you don't want to talk too much about work, that's fine. Jenny began to lead the conversation, "I wanted to hear the specifics of this project, I mean, the outside world doesn't seem to know much about it right now, and my agent simply told me that this is a film that I don't want to miss." In order to prevent me from getting too serious about the details, he even refused to reveal more to me. "

 "Of course. Gore was also in good spirits, and the drooling instinctive puppy in his mind was crushed by a mature member of society, who earned Jenny an audition, and who reminded Gore that this was a dangerous person, and it was best to keep her away. "Actually, 'Pirates' was a bit more difficult to play than Chicago's, because it was a green screen play, a period setting, and the heroine was preferably British—even if that could be changed, but the British accent was always the most popular. Although your CV says you speak with a British accent, I might as well reveal to you that several of your competitors are native British actresses. "

 "But the protagonist of "Pirates" is Johnny Depp. Jenny said, "I think this so-called heroine is a woman who doesn't have any inner drama—"

 "Vase?" Gore asked rhetorically, and he laughed, "Yes, but vases are also technical jobs, and not everyone can play vases well." "

 Jenny knew she needed to strengthen Gore's confidence in her, because her innate disadvantage relative to all of her competitors was obvious — in Gore's mind she represented a million-dollar risk. However, the task of strengthening faith is a double-edged sword in itself.

 "Yes, no matter how good the acting is, if you don't look beautiful, the audience won't buy it. She said, smiling confidently and pulling her long hair back, which is a great gesture for women to maximize their flair. "However, because it has a lot to do with looks, I am still very confident in this audition. "

 Gore stared at her for a moment, his expression a little complicated, quite similar to James's performance at the Christmas party at the time, he suddenly cleared his throat and changed the subject somewhat awkwardly, "I see you have a ring on your hand - are you married?"

 "No, this is my chastity ring. Jenny knew that it was time for her to strengthen another layer of faith in Gore, and she forced herself to use up all her hopes for 'good love,' and hung her head and said with a smile, "Of course, this is rare in Hollywood, but I have long thought that there are things that the Lord has promised to do for those who love each other, and even though I have encountered many temptations, I will only dedicate myself to my future husband." "

 Perhaps in the East, such a chaste woman would be impressive, but for a veteran of the party who is wise enough to protect his life, there is nothing more unappetizing than just now. In particular, Gore is a director who is about to direct the first mainstream blockbuster of his career, and Jenny is a little-known rookie actress, and the two may work together. If Jenny is also a veteran of the party, then it is indeed a good choice for everyone to have a few dewy marriages, but for this kind of obsessive virgin who admits death reason, once she sleeps, she really has to rush to get married, otherwise Jenny will sue him for sexual harassment in minutes, and Gore will face a high fine in addition to paying the million dollar fine, as well as the anger of the producer.

 The equation is now clear, Jenny's professional ability score has risen, the risk of sleeping with her has increased, and her sexual interest has decreased, and she can only watch the pain of not being able to eat drop...

 "It's really a rare habit that should be promoted. Gore said appreciatively, "Your moral level may not help you with the results of your audition, though." "

 It seems that his intention to choose Jenny as the protagonist has been more identified, at least now Gore is beginning to reveal internal secrets. "You know, although I can recommend you to the audition, but I don't have the right to decide the final candidate, although in my opinion you may be the most suitable person, but Disney is a conservative company, they have carried a lot of risks on this project, and your fatal flaw is that you don't have a film to release - even if it's just the second female lead, at least the whole star, with your own backstory and a certain amount of inner drama. Disney needs to see what you do on the big screen, even if you can come up with a good Chicago review or even a footage, but for Disney, what they see on the big screen is everything. "

 The audition for "Pirates of the Caribbean" is nothing more than reading the lines, at most wearing the clothes of that era to show people, in fact, the role is not too difficult to interpret, in terms of Gore's professionalism, he must also know about other candidates, so it seems that without auditioning, she has already won Gore's support - this is not surprising, if it weren't for her professional ability to impress him, why would he take the trouble to watch a show for ten days in a row that he can only watch and eat?

 "Thank you for the reminder. Jenny said sincerely, "I hope we have the opportunity to work together." "

 Gore nodded, but with another wry smile, he mumbled "Na-ah", "Let's see what God has planned." "

 #

 "So, we now have Gore's support, an audition date, and he said he'd tell the producer to send me the script when he got back. Jeanne called Cesare when she got home—some things were inconvenient to say in Mary's presence. "And a chastity ring—how long do you want me to keep it?"

 "Wear it. "But don't make a big deal about it, be vague when asked, and leave yourself some way out." "

 "But—" said Jenny, "how long will I wear it?"

 "Wear it until I let you take it off. Cesare said, "I remember you told me that you didn't have any nude photos, sex tapes leaked, and you were telling the truth, right?"

 Jenny's sex life is healthy and active, but it is not particularly open, Threeway and Sex Tape are behaviors that go beyond the bottom line, and this is two thousand years, not to mention mobile phones that can take pictures and videos, even DV machines are very rare, Sex Tape This trendy concept is still a luxury that only rich people in Hollywood can do, Chen Zhen is also very sure that the original owner Jenny has not made friends with any photography enthusiasts, she has not even seriously fallen in love, and she has sex in high school Meng won't talk about it, who is not divided and combined, it is not a serious relationship, after coming to Los Angeles, because she has to work and go to a community college to take classes, she usually solves it with 419.

 "Of course. She said, "So you're asking me to lie directly to the public, since those who can falsify it don't have proof." "

 "Every year, tens of millions of people suggest that they had a relationship with a celebrity," Cesare said, "and even if you're really pure, when you're so popular that you're noticed by the magazines, there will be people who will jump out and claim that they're the ones who developed you, and there are more than twenty gossip magazines in Hollywood, which means that Britney Spears has to mess with at least three men a week, sometimes more." Guess it will make her chastity ring less shiny by half? People used to say that there is no truth without photos, but now dear, even if there are photos, we can say that they are the product of Photoshop, and only the videotape is the last bottom line. "

 In terms of the pixels of today's home cameras, PS is not PS, and it is really difficult for readers to judge, Jenny thinks for a moment and admits that there are no loopholes in Cesare's thinking.

 She leaned back on the back of the couch, "Well—you can't help but lie if you want to stay in this business, can you? I have to say, I really feel a little guilty tonight when I see Gore's face at the battle." "

 "What are you guilty about?" asked Cesare, "you can't help a man with a feat of betraying his marriage, or can't you let him take advantage of his position to coax you for a few moments?"

 "Uh..." Jenny was once again 'speechless,' she argued. "Maybe that's not coercion?"

 Cesare remained politely silent, and Jeanne and he froze for a moment, finally admitting, "Well, I'm just talking—I'm more uncomfortable with the Ring of Virginity than lying to him." "

 "No one is born to lie to the public," Cesare said with a rare reassurance, but then shifted, "but rest assured you'll adapt faster than you think." "

 Jenny didn't want to talk about the retreat, and she brought up the audition again, "Now that Gore has hinted that he's behind me, can we get the producer's approval before the audition? I mean, find a way to show the producer the information or something—at least don't let his opposition ruin everything." "

 "On this point, I agree with Al Gore that Disney rarely makes bold choices, and generally does not take more than three adventures in a film," Cesare said, "and the choice of the subject matter, and the director of Gore, is already two adventures, and a third venture is a rare phenomenon for them in terms of pirate investment." It's hard for a producer to lean in favor of you before an audition, and because Gore supports you, he won't see you before the audition, otherwise it's unfair to those actors who have already sent out an invitation to audition — and as for the information, you don't have a lot of information, which he was meant to see. "

 "So we're going to do nothing?" Jenny asked, "of course I'm not suspicious of you, but I don't think that's your style—"

 "The audition is on April 2nd, right?" Cesare said with the sound of flipping papers, and then he affirmed, "Indeed, you don't have to do anything before the audition." "

 He said a brief goodbye and hung up. Jenny stared at her phone, wondering if Cesare thought she couldn't hear the difference between 'you' and 'us'.

 The feeling I had when I talked to Gore before resurfaced - under her tutelage, Gore was thinking he was in control of everything, going around in circles and dancing beautifully.

 Jenny wondered if Cesare was in the same mood when he looked at her.
