Chapter 2670 Hollywood Rhapsody (II)

Chapter 2644 Hollywood Rhapsody (II)

Hollywood, the world-famous movie city, is actually located in the suburbs of Los Angeles. So far, it has become an independent city, but the administrative agency is still under the management of the Los Angeles government, and only an honorary mayor is established.

In fact, it was originally just a small village in the suburbs of Los Angeles. At the beginning, there was only one farmhouse. In the late 19th century, a real estate couple heard a person say that he was from "Hollywood" in Ohio during their travels. They liked this name very much, so they transported a large number of holly trees to the suburbs of Los Angeles and named it "Hollywood (meaning holly woods)".

In the beginning, it was only because of the beautiful scenery here that many film companies liked to shoot here, which made this place famous. Later, some small companies built factories here to evade patent control, and many excellent films emerged, which made the film industry flourish here until it became today's world movie city.

Hollywood has a typical West Coast climate, with no scorching heat in summer and no severe cold in winter. It is mild and rainy all year round, with very good natural lighting conditions and beautiful mountains as the background. The natural scenery is also second to none in the West Coast region.

Of course, urban construction also adheres to the romantic style of the West Coast. Because the population is small, many plots of land are used to build parks, unlike New York, where high-rise buildings are lined up one after another. From a distance, it looks sparse and orderly.

Because it was originally Mexican territory, the culture here is also colorful. The original Indian culture, European and American culture, Mexican heritage culture, and the Eastern culture that later immigrated here, all rivers converge, and there is a spectacle of one street and one scene.

The countless excellent movies produced here have also made the city famous, among which the most famous ones are "The Godfather", "Gone with the Wind", "The Wizard of Oz", etc.

The above advantages have made the city's tourism industry extremely developed. Every year, countless tourists come here. After the development of air transportation technology, the frequent shuttle routes between Los Angeles and Hollywood also provide tourists with more possibilities for sightseeing.

One of the shuttle stations is very popular and is crowded almost all the time. This is a rare sight on the West Coast, with people rubbing shoulders with each other and bustling.

Two figures quickly passed through the crowd. The person in front was extremely agile, as if he knew where everyone was going. He took advantage of every opportunity and moved like a dragon.

"Slow down." Gwen shouted breathlessly, "I can't run anymore. We are not in such a hurry to go up, right?"

"Oh, sorry, Gwen, I can't wait." Peter shook the camera in his hand and said, "I wanted to take a photo from this angle before, but unfortunately there was no such station when we came last time."

Gwen followed him, and the two held hands to prevent being separated by the crowd. After going up one more floor, there were more tourists, most of whom were taking photos in front of the railing.

Peter was still as excited as they lined up. He said, "I remember that when we came here last time, we only saw the sign at the foot of the mountain and it was half blocked by the hill. Time flies."

Gwen smiled and nodded and said, "I still remember how nervous we were when we stopped to take pictures. Parking is not allowed there."

"But now we can take pictures at will. When the time comes, you go over and take a picture first. I will adjust the camera, and then we will take a picture together."

Peter kept looking down and fiddling with the camera. Gwen looked forward with some curiosity. When it was finally their turn to walk onto the platform, they both leaned on the railing and looked out.

Above the endless green hills, the white sign was particularly eye-catching - "HOLLYWOOD".

Gwen first held the railing with both hands and let Peter take several pictures of her. Then she took pictures of Peter, and then they took pictures together. However, Peter did not need to adjust the camera. There were enthusiastic tourists next to them who took many pictures for them in a row.

As they walked back with the camera, Peter said, "I saw this sign on TV when I was a kid, and I thought it would be nice if I could take it down and put my name on it."

Gwen immediately laughed and said, "Are you so rebellious? I just wanted to scribble on this sign."

"That's more rebellious, you'll be arrested by the police!"

They laughed and squeezed down the stairs, took the shuttle back to Los Angeles, got off the car and found the parking lot, and saw Stark leaning against the car with an impatient look on his face chewing gum.

"Where did you two go? It took two whole hours? I thought you weren't coming!"

"We went to the Hollywood sign to check in." Peter connected the camera to the communication terminal and started sending photos to Stark.

Stark waved his hand helplessly and walked back to the driver's seat and said, "I don't understand, it's just a white sign, what's there to see."

"Then didn't you hang your name on the top of the Stark Building?" Peter said without showing any weakness, "Isn't it just a sign?"

Can it be the same? Can the great name of Stark be compared with a mediocre name like Holly Grove?

Holly Grove is more literary. Peter happily checked the photos in the camera and said, "Stark sounds like the name of a parking lot."

Stark rolled his eyes fiercely, but the car drove backwards very quickly. Since the shuttle was introduced, Los Angeles has completely stopped traffic jams. They can even race on the main roads of the city during the day.

The restaurant they had dinner at today was the only three-Michelin restaurant in Los Angeles, called Addison. Most people would have to make a reservation more than six months in advance to get a seat, but that was not a problem for Stark.

Not only did they make a reservation, but the restaurant was all empty today just for a group of people to have dinner together. Peter saw a few familiar cars before he even entered the door. It seemed that they had indeed lost some time.

This restaurant is located in a hotel in San Diego. The decoration is a traditional Western restaurant, with a relatively dark but high-end and elegant style. Because there were pregnant women on this trip, the restaurant specially lit some more lights to prevent the road from being blurred and bumped.

As soon as he walked up the steps of the hotel's arch, Peter saw Captain America Steve and his female companion, Agent Carter, who were communicating with the restaurant manager about the menu.

Stark walked up and patted Steve on the shoulder, put his arms around his neck and said: "Listen, you damn blue eyes, you must not betray me later..."

Steve acted as if he hadn't heard anything and snorted coldly and said: "I really don't know which of us has slept together for 70 years. The surprises you prepared were considered cliché in our time. Who would take the trouble to expose you? "

"But I've been preparing for a long time!" Stark gritted his teeth and said, "You must not let me off the chain!"

Steve was very perfunctory and turned around to talk to the manager. They were carefully confirming whether there was anything in each dish that pregnant women could not eat. Of course, it could not be harmful to women recovering from postpartum. After all, Wanda was here this time. .

Carter smiled at Peter, who greeted her, and Carter said, "Nick can't come. He's a little busy recently. He asked me to greet you on his behalf."

"Don't worry." Peter said, "We'll go in first."

After walking in, the originally dark and cramped corridor suddenly opened up. Most of the tables and chairs had been removed, and a gorgeous long table was placed in the middle. The table was covered with a dark green tablecloth and a dark blue table runner. The waiter next to him Busy coming and going.

The dishes being prepared are placed on the preparation table behind everyone. They are dazzling at first glance, at least in terms of shape, they are very beautiful.

But what puzzled Peter was the camera installed in the corner of the room. After seeing the camera, Gwen immediately became cautious.

"Don't worry, it should be a home video." Peter smiled and said, "The worst case scenario is that it can't be a live broadcast, otherwise Tony will definitely tell us."

"Come here and sit down!" Eddie waved from behind the camera and said, "This is a documentary shoot, so I can retouch and edit pictures! Don't worry!"

The two of them breathed a sigh of relief. Peter pulled Gwen to the dining table and sat down. Peter looked at Schiller who was playing with his mobile phone and asked in a low voice: "Why did you start filming a documentary again? Wasn't it just the last season? Finished?"

"Tony's wedding documentary." Schiller rolled his eyes slightly, and lowered his voice and said: "Do you think there is even the slightest chance that he will not record the most important moment in his life? He is so proud now that he just opens his screen. Peacock!”

Peter looked around uneasily and said, "This posture looks more like Housewives of New York. Is there a script? Do I want to say something?"

"Just relax." Eddie said, "This will be a documentary about the daily life of superheroes. The audience loves to watch this. Of course, no one knows you are Spider-Man, so don't be too nervous."

Peter immediately found his place. He was a talented researcher who had been taught by Stark and his friend. He was only invited to travel with him and congratulate him.

He and Gwen whispered about the ingredients of the dish opposite, and soon Steve came back to sit down. Another strange woman appeared. After Schiller introduced him, Peter knew that it was Eddie's neighbor Ms. Blochtta. Of course Eddie is pursuing her now.

Peter was just guessing how the two of them met when he heard Venom growling from Eddie who was adjusting the camera, "You said you were just helping her feed the dog, you damn liar!"

"I did just help her feed the dog, but she was on vacation recently, and I happened to be shooting with the group, so of course I had to invite her to go with me."

"Liar! Damn liar!"

Peter knew Eddie's future relationship wasn't going to be smooth sailing, and he began to worry about the safety of Ms. Blochtta's pet dog.

Luo Ji and Helen also came, but in the form of mother and daughter. For some reason, I don’t know why, it is most likely the influence of the documentary. In the eyes of ordinary people now, Asgard is the god king and the female prince. , that is to say, they think Luo Ji of Asgard is the second princess, not the little prince.

Loki thinks this is Stark's revenge.

However, Luo Ji's female image is indeed more popular. Every time she appears, it causes a wave of explosive discussions on the Internet. The topic of "the most beautiful princess" is often made headlines on various social software.

Loki knew this was Stark's revenge.

Of course, this princess is even more popular as a CP of various superheroes. People are guessing who her daughter’s father is. Some say she is the amorous Iron Man, some say she is the single-minded Captain America, and of course there are also guesses. Spider-Man's, more people think it's probably Thor's.

But with endless cp, there are endless disputes. This is the main reason why Luo Ji's popularity remains high.

Loki was very sure that this must be Stark's revenge.
