Hollywood Hunter

Chapter 14 Alienation

Simon left the airship bar and stood on the street looking at the neon flashing in the twilight. He didn't feel any loss about Courtney's choice.

A simple girl without a little care is hard to get confused in the Vanity Fair in Hollywood.

Just at night, the streets of Santa Monica are the most lively moments, and there is nothing wrong with walking back to the hotel where you stayed.

However, Simon then found that his backpack was still in Courtney's car.

During this time, Simon was basically inseparable from the light gray rucksack. The bag contained the contract with WMA and several scripts, as well as the sub-lens draft of "Laura Run", which was almost all of Simon's possession at this time.

These things are not valuable to outsiders, but if they are lost, they will be very troublesome.

Simon turned his head back to the door of the bar, still a long line, thinking about what to do, and Courtney's figure also flashed out of the crowd at the door.

Looking at the depressed expression on the girl's face, Simon realized that she must have been dragged out by herself.

Courteney also saw Simon, but just glared at him angrily, and walked straight to the parking lot.

Simon can only keep up. As Courtney came to the parking lot, he said to the girl who pulled the key and opened the door: "I'm so sorry, Kurt, I didn't expect that."

"What's the use of saying sorry to me."

Courteney glanced at Simon, opened the door silently, and sat on the driver's seat, his arms resting on the steering wheel for a moment, still unable to kick a kick in the car indiscriminately.

It was already planned tonight. The friend of Matthew Broderick was very interesting to Christie, and Christie also planned to agree to it, and then took her into the circle of Matthew.

Matthew Broderick is a family of acting family, and the family has deep connections in Hollywood.

With the success of "Teaching Genius" and the "War Game" a few years ago, Matthew Broderick, who has accumulated two blockbuster blockbuster films, has become a popular Hollywood frontline at this time. Tom Cruise before the Aspirations is comparable.

Being able to squeeze into Matthew's circle and help his development in Hollywood even more than an excellent agent.

Now, the whole soup is gone.

Perhaps even Christie's heart will be irritated to her.

Simon didn't know Courtney's calculations, even if he knew, he had no regrets about the punch he just made.He is not an unforgivable person, but he will never give up his dignity without compromise to seek for perfection.

Looking at the grumpy girl in the carriage, Simon waited for a moment before pointing to the other side co-pilot: "Curt, can I pass my bag?"

I really want to drop the guy's backpack next to it and drive away.

But calming down, Courtena also realized that Simon was in order to stop the guy who was harassing him. He was angry, but he was just angry that he just refused to bow his head a little.

So, after hesitating, Courteney still said to Simon angrily: "Get in the car, you want to go back, so far."

More than six kilometers from here to the hotel, Simon naturally didn't want to go back. Hearing the soft voice of Courtney's mouth but softened, he smiled and turned to the other side of the car, pulled the door to the co-pilot, and looked at the girl Started the car and said, "Wait for Christie?"

Courtney drove the car out of the parking lot on the steering wheel, remembering the situation just now, shaking her head and saying, "She shouldn't be going back tonight."

Simon yelled again and said, "So, let's find a restaurant for dinner first. I'll treat you."

From the shift in the afternoon until now, Simon has not eaten, and Courtney should be the same.

Listening to Simon's words, Courtney hesitated again,

"I understand," Simon nodded and made a little joke, "It just happens, I can pick a cheaper restaurant later, otherwise I can only stay and wash the dishes."

Courtney felt Simon’s relaxed tone, and inexplicably lost her heart, but still smiled casually and echoed: "I knew I’d eaten dinner before I talked about it. I really want to see the scene where you were detained and brushed. ."

With that said, Courteney actually knew Simon’s economic situation and chose a cheap fast food restaurant.

After having a simple dinner, Simon just asked Courtney to take him to the work convenience store, sent the girl away, and walked back to the hotel on his own.

In the following days, Courteney still appeared in the convenience store where Simon worked, but the number was significantly less, even the convenience store owner Roger Griffin felt the estrangement between the two.

Occasionally chatting a few words, Courteney complained a little, Christie moved from the apartment they shared, and she had to find a new roommate to share the rent.

As an unremarkable little person, Simon’s life has not been affected by the last bar incident, still continuing his work rhythm step by step, while waiting for the WMA side news about the "Butterfly Effect" script.

After another week, using the savings of this time to save money, Simon bought a second-hand bicycle at a flea market near Venice Beach for $30, which not only solved the basic travel problem, but also planned for "Roller Run" added an important prop.

At the same time, within WMA.

After nearly a month of gestation and coordination, Jonathan Friedman finally officially introduced the "Butterfly Effect" script and WMA carefully planned complete package project plan to major Hollywood studios.

As the "Butterfly Effect" has attracted the attention of company executives including WMA President Norman Broca, this project is no longer delivered step by step to the senior executives of the studio through the traditional layer of recommendation channels, but through WMA's The internal connections were directly delivered to the desks of executives above the vice presidents who had project decision-making power in major studios.

"Butterfly Effect" with its wonderful story conception and perfect movie script, coupled with WMA's spare no effort to build momentum, quickly aroused the strong attention of senior executives of major studios.

If at other times, a movie script with a wonderful story, a low budget, and the best selling elements in recent years, after a week of dissemination in Hollywood, major studios have already begun to offer or even bid for each other.

But this time, because WMA wanted to make "Butterfly Effect" as a packaged project, the response of Hollywood film companies was different.
