Touch porcelain

Although well-dressed, Simon can still easily find Meg Ryan's obvious eye bags and deep nasolabial folds. The skin does not have the luster that a 26-year-old woman should have, and it looks even like a 30-something overworked Housewife.

Having been in a similar circle for both his life, Simon naturally knew what Meg Ryan's state meant at this time.

The C+ agent Josh Lieberman, who was sitting next to Meg Ryan, noticed Simon's expression and quickly interrupted the silence in front of him, saying: "Mr. Westeros, Meg and I are very serious. After studying the script of "When Harry Meets Sally", Meg is happy to play the role of Sally. However, as far as we know, the investor has not been determined for this film. What will Daenerys Pictures do? "

"The film will start shooting in September at the latest," Simon replied, looking back at Meg Ryan, looking at Josh Lieberman, "If there is no collaborator, Daenerys Pictures will personally Invest in this project."

Hollywood filmmakers have a very common rule: never invest your own money in movies.

When Josh Lieberman heard Simon's answer, he couldn't help labeling Simon as "stunned green" in his heart, but on the surface he nodded and said, "In this case, we have no problems."

"So, now talk about my problem," Simon turned to Meg Ryan again, and said straightforwardly: "Miss Ryan, do you have a drug addiction?"

Meg Ryan was a little worried just after being looked at by Simon.

I originally thought it would be a very easy meeting, but this young man, who is said to be less than 20 years old, unknowingly brought her even more pressure than those high-level studios.

Upon hearing this, Meg Ryan immediately shook his head: "Of course not."

"In that case, do a drug test," Simon said lightly: "As long as you can pass, you don't need to audition again, this role is yours."

Meg Ryan glanced at the agent next to him with guilty conscience.

Josh Lieberman coughed awkwardly, and proactively defended his client: "Mr. Westeros, I can assure you that this aspect will never affect the filming."

Simon shook his head and said, "Sorry, Mr. Lieberman, your guarantee is not worth 15 million dollars."

After last year's "Rising Clouds", although he only played a small role in it, it is not that difficult for Meg Ryan to receive another film contract. However, most of these are just supporting roles.

The big production heroine with a budget of 15 million US dollars is still a little far away. Therefore, both Josh Lieberman and Meg Ryan take this opportunity very seriously.

At this moment, Josh Lieberman felt Simon's strength, he hesitated, then suddenly said: "Or, Mr. Westeros, you can talk to Meg alone."

After that, before Simon could answer, Josh Lieberman got up neatly, gave Meg Ryan a secret look, and walked outside the office.

Simon watched Josh Lieberman leave, only smiled, looked at the opposite Meg Ryan again, and still asked mercilessly: "Which do you use on weekdays, do you have injections?"

"Of course not," Meg Ryan squinted at the closed office door, then glanced at the young man who looked like a villain opposite, paused before raising his hand and making a smoking gesture, and said: " Only occasionally, Mr. Westero, I am not addicted to drugs."

Simon looked at the woman opposite, still hesitating.

The production budget of "When Harry Met Sally" was as high as 15 million U.S. dollars, and he might have to invest himself. Simon would never risk such a huge sum of money.

In my memory, although Meg Ryan was not affected by this, and became popular after two years, Simon couldn't guarantee that the appearance of his own butterfly would change something.

Meg Ryan noticed Simon's hesitation, remembered the look in the agent's eyes when he left, then looked at the young man opposite, thought about it, and quickly said: "Mr. Westeros, maybe we can eat together later. Dinner, then we will discuss this matter carefully."

When Simon heard this, he raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Sorry, Miss Ryan, I have an appointment."

Now that he said it, Meg Ryan stopped tweaking, and said, "Tomorrow night will be fine."

Simon smiled and said, "Unfortunately, I will have a date tomorrow night."

Meg Ryan felt the young man staring brightly at him, and felt a little bit more embarrassed in his heart, but this embarrassment quickly turned into a kind of inexplicable rebellion.

Determined, Meg Ryan got up and turned around the coffee table, then knelt on the carpet by the man's feet, and reached out to grab Simon's belt.

Simon felt the scent of the pretty woman in front of him, raised his hand to stop the other's movements, and said: "Okay, sit back."

Meg Ryan did not give up, and insisted on reaching out. Simon had no choice but to grab the woman's arm and push it gently.

then.

Meg Ryan fell directly to the ground, curled up, and turned his face to look at Simon with murmur.

Touch porcelain.

He said helplessly, Simon leaned on the sofa, raised his legs, and was too lazy to help the woman on the ground, and said: "This time I wanted to talk to you about the script. But now, two things: First, do a drug test, I want to make sure you haven't touched something. Second, after confirming this, I will arrange an audition for you. As long as you pass it, you must come to Daenerys every day until the film starts. The film industry goes to work, from 9 to 5, no staying up late, no nightclubs, no more touching those things, and regular maintenance. Sally is a very delicate woman, you can only rely on a regular living environment and regular maintenance. Reach the state I need."

After Simon finished speaking, seeing the woman still lying on the carpet, he just got up and said, "Think about it, come back tomorrow."

It was not until Simon walked to the door that a voice came from behind him: "Tomorrow is Saturday."

Simon opened the door without looking back, "Or, you don't have to come."

Back at the audition room, Simon continued to work until the evening, and then left Daenerys Pictures headquarters and rushed directly to a mansion halfway up the mountain in Beverly Hills.

Simon did have an appointment tonight, Robert Redford's party, but the purpose is for another character in "Pulp Fiction," the boxer Butch Coolidge.

The original Butch Coolidge was played by Bruce Willis, and Simon really didn't feel much about Bruce Willis. This time, he was fond of another guy who once played a boxer.

of course.

It's not Silverster Stallone.

With a budget of 8 million dollars, I can't afford Stallone anyway.

Simon wants to invite Robert De Niro, who has appeared in films such as "The Godfather", "Taxi Driver", and "Angry Bull". Robert Redford happened to have a good relationship with Robert De Niro, so he agreed to help introduce him at the party tonight.
