Scarlett is expressing a strong dissatisfaction with herself.

In the "Avengers" crew, facing a large group of men such as Robert Downey Jr., Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, and Chris Evans, she never fell in Downwind, even firmly in place to gain the upper hand, easily cope with all unexpected situations.

Facing Renly-Hall, he always loses the upper hand inadvertently, and even loses the advantage faintly. It is really uncomfortable to feel so tied; but it is undeniable that every confrontation is full of The spark of intellect, the feeling of not being too aggressive is always exciting.

"God, you are really a devil." Scarlett showed her white teeth deliberately, expressing her dissatisfaction and protest strongly.

Not wanting, Renly frowned slightly and shook his head gently, "Scarlett, this is not for you."

Scarlett showed a puzzled look, didn't understand Renly's words, and then saw Renly raise his right hand, clenched into a fist, squeezed heavily, showing a tough posture. With such an action, Scarlett immediately understood—

The grinning, too young girls and too childish, not suitable for Scarlett's style; fist confrontation, straightforward, tough and capable, this is Scarlett's style.

After realizing it, Scarlett opened her mouth slightly and let out a low voice complaining, "Renly Hall!"

Almost as a conditioned reflex, Scarlett clenched her fists, but before she had time to punch, she reacted: she actually fell into the trap, and Renly's conjecture was actually right. The helplessness and speechlessness surged up, and Scarlet couldn't help but chuckle.

Renly could sense the sight of Scarlett projected like a flying knife. He showed an elegant smile and said in a deep voice, "Be careful, your eyes are very dangerous."

The subtext is... Worried about Scarlett falling in love?

Scarlett subconsciously raised her right foot, kicked Renly's calf through the cumbersome skirt, and then lifted her chin triumphantly, as if to say: It's not a fist, I didn't expect it ? Then he added, "Don't worry, you're not my cup of tea. To be honest, I don't quite understand what's so handsome about you? I can't see it at all."

"You like the Ryan Reynolds one, right?" Renly raised his eyebrows slightly, and although he didn't say much, the meaning was clearly conveyed: the Butterscotch one. Before he officially starred in Deadpool, Ryan Reynolds was the type of handsome buttercream.

Scarlett only felt that the knee was hit by an arrow, but she did not show weakness and quickly returned fire, "How do you know? Wait, or do you like this one too?"

Between the tit-for-tat confrontation between you and me, the two both stopped talking, and then both laughed lightly.

However, this is Oscar night. Every moment, every second, the social situation is changing. Even if they are hiding beside the long buffet table, Renly and Scarlett are still like beacons in the dark night. The lost travelers moved slowly and gathered.

The brief silence was quickly interrupted. Renly and Scarlett didn't stop there either. After a while, the two joined different groups and quietly blended into this grand party.

The only difference is that the characters gathered around this time have gradually become richer. There are men and women, actors, directors, screenwriters, producers, photographers, etc. There are industry leaders and newcomers, and there are familiar faces as well as others. When we met for the first time, there was an endless stream of people coming and going, and there was no room to breathe.

"... For such works, more and more people will invest in the future, but it will become more and more difficult to shoot new ideas. Personally, I am willing to pay, but not willing to watch. But this is the film market, we I can't understand it, can I?"

The eloquent words appear confident and unassuming, and the condescending attitude of the superior is naturally revealed, exuding a sense of superiority of giving orders from the inside out; both inside and outside of the words are trying to show their own insight and long-term vision, He rebuked Fangqiu to discuss the development prospects of the entire film industry, but as everyone knows, his words and deeds have exposed his businessman essence, not to mention art, and even his understanding of popcorn commercial films is only limited to fur.

Standing in front of Renly at this moment is Jon-Feltheimer, CEO of Lionsgate.

As a producer, Jon was undoubtedly a failure. After he entered the industry in the 1980s, he hardly had any masterpieces to speak of; but as a businessman, Jon was successful. After joining Lionsgate in 2000, he single-handedly made this Canadian company The company took it step by step to its peak.

Above the 78th Oscars, "Crash" overturned "Brokeback Mountain" to the top of the Oscars. series, etc., the low-cost horror movies achieved a big counter-attack at the box office, and gradually occupied a place for Lionsgate in North America.

In the financial crisis of 2008, Lionsgate was on the verge of bankruptcy, but under the leadership of Jon, it survived the difficulties and successfully developed the "Hunger Games" series, "The Expendables" series, etc.; and successfully acquired last year. With the pinnacle entertainment of the "Twilight" series, it has successfully entered the ranks of Hollywood's seven.

In 2012, with "The Hunger Games", "Twilight: Breaking Dawn (Part 2)",

"The Expendables 2", "The Cabin in the Woods" and other works have achieved great box office success. On the year-end box office revenue list, Lionsgate successfully surpassed 20th Century Fox and Paramount Pictures, ranking fifth, breaking the The monopoly of the six major Hollywood studios!

For a time, the industry began to discuss, is Lionsgate Pictures about to become the seventh player to change the entire market structure?

Tonight, Jon is undoubtedly one of the hottest figures on Oscar night. He is talking with Renly about a series of cooperation plans for a series of works. Although the name of the work is not mentioned in detail, it can be vaguely heard that this It is a huge plan, not just one work, but a cooperation agreement for multiple works signed in one go, just like the cooperation between Warner Bros. and Christopher Nolan.

This is definitely the treatment of a top superstar, and Jon's sincerity can be clearly felt.

But the problem is that Jon seems to have some misunderstandings about Renly. He hopes to choose a series of teen adaptations similar to "The Hunger Games", and then use Renly as the core to build a superhero that is closer to the psychology of teenagers. The hero image is younger than "Mission Impossible" and "007", and more mature than "Harry Potter".

The first choice that came to Renly's mind was "Fifty Shades of Grey".

He knew that this was not a superhero movie, nor was it the work of Lionsgate Pictures—it was affiliated with Universal Pictures, but he couldn’t help himself. Demeanor.

However, Jon didn't feel this at all, and was still talking about it, obviously, Renly concealed it very well.

"Jon, Lionsgate is on the right track now, and it looks like you've got a grip on the market. But for actors, the ever-changing market is just too esoteric to understand, which is why some people It's just actors, and some people are CEOs," Renly said with a smile, acknowledging in a socially polite way.

A big smile appeared on Jon's face.

After that, Renly didn't pause, and continued, "Now, I need to relieve my brain and find a glass of whisky. Then I'll say goodbye and talk later." Renly lifted his feet and left here, walking towards the banquet hall not far away.

Jon didn't mind either. Before he had time to turn around, the other two actors had already stepped up to meet them. Without any gaps or gaps, the conversation continued again.

The outdoor garden and swimming pool are shrouded in a halo of lemon yellow and mint blue, vaguely outline a touch of purple, quiet and distant, quietly hiding people's body shapes, leaving secrets in the air; indoors The hall was bathed in a golden light, so bright and dazzling that all the figures and faces began to blur, gradually getting lost in the hustle and bustle of glitz and fame.

Renly stopped across from the sofa, staring silently at the man in front of him.

He didn't look up, his eyes still fell on the amber whisky in his hand, blurring the focus, as if he didn't notice Renly's arrival at all; but Renly didn't mind, he walked around the coffee table and sat down on the other end of the sofa , slowly relaxed without saying a word, and seemed to enjoy this moment of tranquility immensely.

"Andre's sincerity is not enough, and the whisky served here is really disappointing," he said.

All the whiskies on Oscar night are from the ancient Scottish brand Dalmore owned by Andre Hamilton, but the whisky is also graded, and the taste and stamina are naturally different.

"Enough sincerity, and they need to be able to taste it," Renly said.

He couldn't help chuckling, "Don't belittle them like that. Someone can taste the part that really stands at the top of the pyramid."

"That group of people don't need to enjoy whisky here," Renly said, and then the corner of his mouth smiled lightly, "It's as if they didn't know, the goal they pursued tirelessly was sitting quietly on the sofa in the hall, as if it was a An island in the middle of a rave party. Definitely the biggest irony of the night."

"Forgive them, they don't know what they are after, and naturally they can't see my existence." He said lightly, "Did you come here specially to shift the focus?"

"Yeah. Maybe someone can help share the focus, I thought. It's disappointing that Andre and Eaton haven't shown up yet," Renly complained calmly.

"So, you're not wondering why I came to Los Angeles?"

"Hopefully not because of me."

Sitting in front of him is Arthur Hall, Renly's brother.
