Chapter 1222

The paparazzi waiting opposite the parking lot at the back door of the Sunset Tower Hotel were in a commotion. They looked at the longitudinal Street on the right side one after another. Then they could see three paparazzi running back and shouting, "really, really! Langley really went into the trailer restaurant. He chatted with the waiter and ordered a cup of coffee and a sandwich

"Hua", the paparazzi are excited, one after another exchange of sight.

"You say, shall we follow this clue? Maybe, what special person is Langley waiting for in the trailer? Maybe it's gossip? "

"I don't think it's a big deal, otherwise how could Langley leave Oscar night alone?"

"I don't think so. Last year and the year before last, Langley did not attend the Oscar night. Why is this year an exception? In my opinion, lanli just didn't want to stay any longer, so he left alone. This is the choice that suits his personality. "

"So... Will Langley come back?"

Standing quietly, Eliot did not participate in the discussion.

He deeply believes that it is absolutely possible to say that Langley is just going out to eat a sandwich or hamburger, and then returning to the night of the Oscars. With Langley's personality, he can't predict his behavior, but he knows that he should not follow Langley's line. He refuses and refuses solemnly!

The paparazzi had a good commotion for a while, but after all, no one stepped out. Although Langley is now one of the most popular figures in Hollywood, in the past few months, there is still a lack of hot spots; What's more, just now Lan Li chose to leave alone. It didn't look like there was a big news.

In the meantime, two paparazzi were not very willing to go across the street to explore, but they found nothing and finally came back dejected.

Eliot, who watched everything, was deeply satisfied with his wisdom.

……

Once upon a time, Sunset Boulevard, which was popular all over Hollywood, has gradually declined. Many luxury houses and manors have been abandoned and dilapidated. Some have been renovated, some have been overthrown and rebuilt, and some have gradually lost their original appearance and can no longer be identified.

On the left is a luxury resort, on the right is a traditional Western Cowboy restaurant, on the opposite is the famous Sunset Tower Hotel, surrounded by three sides, This small open space stands here lonely and stubborn, incompatible with the surrounding bustle and noise. Now it's strange, quietly describing the history and frustrations of this road.

At this time, lanli was sitting in the train carriage.

Actually, it's a restaurant with American breakfast and Mexican food. Just like the numerous driver's restaurants on both sides of the American highway, everything is the simplest meal, but it has the distinctive characteristics of the United States. A plate of scrambled eggs, a sandwich, two pieces of bacon and a cup of coffee are enough.

Sitting at the bar of the train carriage, you can see a continuous stream of scenes in front of the Sunset Tower Hotel. It's noisy and turbulent. It seems that everyone is trying their best to join them; On the other side of the street, you can enjoy the incredible tranquility, just like sitting by the road and enjoying the coming and going of all living beings.

In the center of Los Angeles, I have tasted a touch of the West.

Maybe this is the most wonderful place on Sunset Boulevard.

He tasted the coffee carefully, without sugar and milk. The light bitterness was like soot on the tip of his tongue. He frowned slightly and looked up at the waiter nearby. "Is this pot of coffee burnt?"

The waiter laughed happily, "I'm sorry, I've been watching the bustle behind. I didn't pay attention to it. I burned it carelessly. To apologize, I can give you a free puff. Believe me, you'll like it. " The waiter cleverly put a puff on a small plate and put it beside the blue coffee. He blinked and said, "I'm sorry again."

The restaurant is just opposite the Sunset Tower Hotel. Every year, Oscar night is closely watched. Naturally, he recognized lanli at the first sight.

In fact, it's not just Langley. Almost every Oscar night, there are many actors and directors in the train carriage. Before or after the party, they are very happy to add some energy and enjoy a moment of peace; Next to the train carriage is a mobile hamburger dining car, where business is booming——

Just after the Oscar ceremony tonight, a group of big stars surrounded the place. He even saw Ang Lee, the winner of tonight's best director, eating a small golden man in one hand and a hamburger in the other.

So when I saw Lan Li, the waiter didn't make a fuss.

"Just me? Or is his coffee burnt, too? " With a smile, Langley motioned to the young man sitting outside the two vacant seats on his left.

At this time, there are only two of them next to the bar, and they can notice each other without being deliberate. However, all the young man's mind was focused on the opposite Sunset Tower Hotel, and he didn't notice the entrance and exit of lanli at all.

The waiter said with a smile, "I don't think he would mind. He's been sitting here for three hours and I strongly doubt that his taste buds have lost their sense after numerous refills In such a dining car, coffee is unlimited.

"I do mind." The young man seemed to have finally noticed the conversation and retorted, "but the problem is that I'm full of coffee and can't eat any more puffs, so I still refuse." Then he shrugged, "what's more, I like burnt coffee. It keeps me awake. "

This is a very young man. His curly hair looks like instant noodles. It just curls up like a curly dog, even more serious than Justin Timberlake's curly hair. Such a lovely look makes the childish baby's fat face look more and more green, It looks as if it's just graduated from college - not even graduated.

A dark gray shirt, a paint black suit, a dark blue diagonal stripe tie.

It seems to be a formal and serious dress, but you can see the flaws.

Shirt and suit are not fit, shoulder, elbow, sleeve and hem can be seen uncomfortable traces; Slightly loosen the tie knot, untie the top button of a shirt, the cuff button seems to have been loosened a little, as if the long wait really depressed too long, muscles and nerves are tight to the extreme, had to slightly loosen some.

Details determine everything.

Just like the image of Mark Zuckerberg in the "social network", even if he wears formal clothes, he also reveals many details that are arrogant and difficult to control, which is in sharp contrast with other founders; At this time of young people is also the case, a suit suit is still unable to give him calm and sophisticated temperament.

The young man gently pointed to the coffee cup in front of him, "excuse me, can I have another refill?"

He seems to catch the eyes of lanli. He turns his head slightly and looks at lanli's dress - suits and shoes with the remaining light of his eyes. He rubs the light, dresses well and meticulously. But for them, the details of these suits are meaningless. The suits of Wall Street and Oscar seem to be the same.

Simply and clearly, he thought that next to him should be a Wall Street elite, or like him, a hunter with a clear and strong purpose.

"So you're waiting for someone, too?" He took his eyes back and just glanced at each other's face, but his attention had been diverted first, and he didn't pay much attention at all. Then he picked up his coffee cup again and took a sip. The hot coffee made him show his teeth, but he still swallowed it.

"It's very difficult, isn't it? Now I've been thinking about whether it's too risky for him to rush up and put my work in his arms and pray that he can go home and watch it? Not to mention whether his security guards will throw me out directly, I don't think he is willing to watch when he comes home. "

The young man said to himself, not so much complaining as uneasiness. The whole person was full of a sense of uncertainty and anxiety. Then he scratched his head hard, and his curly hair became more messy in an instant.

"I don't know, but... Who are you waiting for?" Anyway, having nothing to do, chatting and relaxing is also a good choice, Lan Li asked friendly.

The young man shrugged, "anyone. Literally, anyone. Director, screenwriter, actor, producer and even photographer, I don't care. I just need any guy who can say his name. I want to give him my project, let him have a look, and then find an investor. "

After that, the young man himself began to smile bitterly, "I know, it's stupid. It's the way it was in the 1980s. But... "The young man lowered his head dejectedly," but I'm desperate. I've been trying to find investors for the past two years, from New York to Los Angeles, from Seattle to Chicago. I'm bankrupt now, but no one is willing to invest. "

"Chi", the young man laughed with self mockery, "I even took the script to shoot a short film, participated in the Sundance Film Festival at the beginning of this year, and won the award, originally thought it would be easier, but two months later..." the young man did not continue to say, but shook his head helplessly, which was really beyond words.

"Yes, I know that waiting is a very painful process. What's more, we don't know whether the result is what we want at the end of waiting. " Lenley agreed with a smile.
