Chapter 274 Keeping Pretty Girls Away from Bond

The war of words between the media and Justin continued, and the aftermath of the incident was quite hilarious, but it was no longer relevant to MGM now. That morning, Ecks walked into the elevator like he was carrying a briefcase as usual, and the door was just about to close when he saw his assistant, Cord, running over in a panic with a bag of hot reflections.

Looked at the elevator door is going to close, Eckes quick hands, press the door button, the elevator door open again, secretly screamed thankful Cord found the elevator is standing in their own boss, as well as came to the mouth of the words of thanks at once choked.

Ecks pointed a finger upward, "Are you going up?"

Taking a breath Cord nodded sharply and sidestepped into the elevator, "I'm glad you're in the elevator, I was so lucky earlier."

Ecks glanced at the bag in Cord's hand, "You like to drink this?"

Cord was afraid that his boss would misunderstand that he was lazy and late, he hurriedly explained, "It was something Mr. Felix specified to drink, that's why I went downstairs to buy it..."

"He's in my office now?" Ecks' eyelids fluttered and his voice steepened a few decibels.

Cord said somewhat timidly, "Mr. Felix said you were looking for him for something, and I couldn't stop him if he wanted to go in..."

Ecks snapped to his senses, he did make an appointment with Lin Ming Yang yesterday, only with that exhausting guy's character, he tends to dilly-dally with you for a few days if it's not something particularly important, and today it's so unusual to come in early in the morning, which makes Ecks a little puzzled.

Ecks didn't say a word, in the elevator Cord also followed and shut his mouth, after arriving at the floor, Ecks was the first to step out of the elevator, he was thinking about the problem when he was walking his feet very fast, the Cord who was following him had to jog in order to keep up with his rhythm.

When he arrived at the door of his office, Ecks suddenly stopped, turned his head to Cord and said, "I'll help that guy take this in, you go and get busy first, don't let anyone disturb our conversation during this period of time."

Cord did as he was told, and after Ecks took the cup of hot drink from him, he pushed the door and walked in.

Lin Mingyang wasn't wreaking havoc with his mouse and keyboard with a game as he had imagined, but he was sitting on a sofa to the side, holding a copy of the New York Times Economics section in his hand and reading it intently.

When Ecks placed the hot drink in front of him, Lin Ming Yang's gaze did not move away from the content of the newspaper, but his mouth still whispered a thank you.

"Putting aside the fine coffee I have here and not drinking it, when did you fall in love with this instant product?"

Lin Ming Yang put down the newspaper with some confusion, only then realizing that it wasn't Cord who brought him the coffee, he smiled at Ecks, "It's easy to drink and has a good taste."

"I heard that when Jessica Biel approached you, she had clearly agreed to star as a Bond Girl, but why did you tell her to think about it?" Ecks cut the conversation straight to the chase.

"I promised her not to bother with Justin, she agreed to star as a Bond Girl, and how the relationship looked like an unfair deal, I wanted her to identify with the role from the inside and not be impressed by other factors...I just gave her a little time to think this through."

"When did you become like a moral completist?"

Lin Ming Yang shook his head, "I just don't want to make things difficult for women!"

Ecks leaned back on his desk with his hands clasped, after Lin Ming Yang finished speaking, he symbolically clapped his hands, then said in a rather smug tone, "It seems like I made an immensely correct decision, letting you play Bond was the right thing to do, in the James Bond movies, James Bond made one beautiful woman after another go forward to give up their lives for his cause; and in reality, you pretty Women have almost zero resistance to you, and even take the initiative to throw their arms around you. At first I was wondering why this was so, but now I finally figured it out!"

Lin Mingyang asked curiously, "Figured out what?"

"I know that you guys have never been very particular in your dress code, but who let you be born as a clothes rack, and whatever clothing is passed on to you can look decent. And you're a lazy guy who refuses to put effort into his clothes, so you naturally become a man in a suit when attending various events. Whether you meant to or not, this happens to cater to most people's preferences."

Lin Mingyang always felt that the richness of Ecks' changing expressions when he spoke was much more interesting than what he was saying, and when his colorful "performance" came to an end for the time being, Lin Mingyang shrugged helplessly, "Does this have anything to do with the topic we're discussing?"

"Why is Bond so charming? I think he's probably in a similar situation to you, but the Bond in his movies dresses much more carefully than you do. Bond without a suit is simply insulting to the public, just like Daniel Greco in Casino Royale, I don't know how many people spurted blood when he appeared, not only did he not wear a suit and tie, but he also wore a flowery T-shirt full of oil and blood rolling around in the sand, where is this that super secret agent, it's completely that of a third-rate hitman!"

"As far as the fight scene is concerned, I think Casino Royale is the most genuine of all James Bond movies!"

"Okay!" Ecks spread his hands, "I admit that Mr. Daniels fights hard in the movie, but unfortunately, besides looking like former Russian President Putin, his whole person from appearance to style and temperament is still far away from being suave, which is the reason why many James Bond fans don't like him. And he always made a mess in the movie, even the suit looks often wrinkled. In the previous movie, all kinds of fashion elements are always filled in the Bond's surroundings - beautiful women, sports cars, hotels, watches, pistols ... None of them is not a fashionable person should have, if just say Bond a table talent is obviously too underestimated, it can only be said to be a good embryo, but if the title of the MI6 spies! The status of the name of the status of the status of the immediately obvious."

"When Bond drives an eye-catching Aston Martin sports car, immaculate in and out of the city, the natural flow of the successful man's faction makes him instantly become a million people, so that a lot of beautiful women for the intoxication, but also naturally lead to a lot of affair. It can be said that Bond's life from the very beginning on the cusp of fashion, the most stylish sports cars, the most luxurious hotels, the most cutting-edge watches, as well as a variety of high-tech precision instruments, you can say that this is just a kind of camouflage, is the image design of his work, but you have to admit that this disguise is enough to fall in love with the crowd. Handsome appearance and successful background together, may I ask what else can stop him from conquering beautiful women?"

This time the person who applauded changed to Lin Mingyang, "A very wonderful review, it's almost catching up with those professional movie critics!"

Ecks looked at Lin Ming Yang with deep meaning, "Your case is simply a replica of James Bond, with a distinguished status, both as a proud son of the actor, and as a bull who can write and direct, you're only 23 years old and you're such a demon, it's no wonder that Heffner handed over the Playboy group to you so willingly, don't look at him as being older than you by a long shot, he also claimed that he had slept with How many women have been to bed, but really compared with you, the strength is simply not on a level. Now there is still that actress in Hollywood that you can't handle? In terms of flirtation, I think the biggest playboy in Hollywood is you!"

Lin Mingyang's hand that was ready to applaud did not clap down, but instead grimaced and coldly hummed.

"Are you praising me or undermining me?"

"Can't you see that this is a kind of...exhortation with an envious tone?" Ecks squeezed his eyes at Lin Ming Yang, "I know that in this era of increasing openness, off 'one-night stands' is no longer a taboo game, but has instead become a trend. As the protagonist of the world's longest series of films, 007, Bond and his many Bond girls have also created the record for the highest number of one-night stands in the movie industry. Bond is both the daydream of men and the dream lover of women all over the world. Because of this similarity in temperament, I'm sure you'll be the best Bond in history, bar none!"

Lin Ming Yang quietly looked at Ecks, he felt that this was still what Ecks really wanted to say today.

"Like a trick of fate, there is never a shortage of women around men of virtue and talent, they are like a big magnetic field that attracts all kinds of women, but once these women manage to provoke them, none of them will have a good ending, it's like a curse that makes a lot of men end up as widows and orphans. Isn't Bond the best example? Surrounded by countless women, they are either alluring, sexy, or intelligent, but in the end they still can't escape the shackles of losing their lives, in that case Bond is really a dangerous man, so it's best for beautiful women to stay away from Bond!"

The man closest to Bond in Ecks' mouth, Lin Ming Yang knew very well in his heart that he had another deep meaning in saying these words today. He was trying to use Bond's example to remind himself not to lose himself in love-lust, the result of indulgence would only result in more women being hurt.

"I once said Hugh Hefner a lonely man in his old age, I didn't expect that to be fulfilled in myself." Lin Mingyang laughed as if mocking himself, "Thank you for the reminder!"

Cord knocked on the door and interrupted the conversation between Ecks and Lin Ming Yang, he walked in with freshly brewed coffee, Ecks took the coffee and after stirring it evenly and gently with a small spoon for a few moments, the faint aroma of coffee soon spread throughout the room.

Ecks put the coffee in his hand to the side, "What other ideas do you have about this shoot?"

Lin Ming Yang thought for a moment and said, "There will be a large number of thrilling scenes filmed in the movie, the safety measures must be especially careful!"

Ecks nodded, "You can rest assured of this, the stunt coordinator we got this time is Garry Powell, since 1962, his family has taken care of all the stunt work for all the James Bond movies, his father, Nosher Powell, and his uncle, Dinny, were the stuntmen for all the movies starring Sean Connery and Lazenby, and his brother was in charge of all the Moore and Dalton starring films, and Garry himself was responsible for the special effects on all the films from Brosnan onwards, his family has now become as integral to the 007 films as Bond."
