After everyone exchanged greetings and sat down, Michael Pitt said with a smile: "They can't come in... What do you want to eat tonight? I specially asked the restaurant's chef to work tonight. Do you want to try his specialty dishes?"
After having dinner together twice, Peter knew that Sun Peng had little research on Western food and seemed to have little interest in it, so he wanted to recommend two exquisite dishes to him to change this guy's opinion.
"Of course, you can recommend a few."
Although he didn't have much appetite at the moment, he couldn't refuse Peter's kindness, right? So Sun Peng smiled and nodded, and at the same time, he subconsciously glanced at Angela Bunter next to Peter.
The Hollywood star's new girlfriend is still stunning up close.
And the key is the opponent's height. As long as Sun Peng comes into close contact with a woman who is stronger than himself, Sun Peng will feel an inexplicable pressure, forcing him to straighten up and raise his head involuntarily, which is very tiring.
When Peter was thinking about what dish to recommend to Sun Peng, Angela Bunter next to him turned into a little fan girl and asked excitedly: "Mr. laobai, are you preparing for a new movie recently? Is it convenient to disclose it?
Please tell me what type of new movie it is... I particularly like the heroine in "League of Assassins"... Oh, by the way, that Chinese actress is your cousin, is that right?"
"Haha, science fiction movie."
"Thank you very much, Miss Bunter, thank you."
"Yes, she is my cousin."
…
Chatting with a beautiful lady is a very pleasant thing, but if her boyfriend is sitting next to her, and Sun Peng is not in good spirits at the moment, it is actually not that pleasant.
Sun Peng dealt with it casually, but Angela Bunter was secretly thinking about how to find an opportunity to take a photo with the famous Mr. Laobai... Well, it would be best to be alone without Michael Pitt.
group photo!
Think about it, this is laobai!
Although she is in the supermodel circle and has never been involved in the film industry, there is no doubt that Bunter has always been very interested in the top of the entertainment industry pyramid. So who is this laobai in front of her and what does it mean?
I know it better than anyone else... After all, my boyfriend is Hollywood’s top-tier Michael Pitt!
So maybe Pete doesn't care, but Bunter is looking forward to taking a photo with Sun Peng.
He turned around and showed off on social media, showing that he and Laobai knew each other and even had a close relationship, which was enough to make his fans excited for several days! And with Laobai's traffic, he might even be able to bring some success to himself.
Here comes a new batch of fans...
"Okay, that's it."
After closing the menu, Michael Pitt smiled at Sun Peng and said, "I ordered you some of Harris's specialty dishes, which are perfect to pair with the red wine I brought."
"Thanks."
After a brief thank you, Sun Peng turned his attention to Michael Pitt and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, he no longer had to deal with the model's boring questions.
With the addition of Michael Pitt, there will naturally be more topics.
As he comes into contact with more and more celebrities, Sun Peng becomes more and more sure of one thing, that is, celebrities are actually no different from ordinary people. It's just that everyone's profession is different, so most of the time the topics they talk about are slightly special...
…No, if you don’t consider the aura of the entertainment industry, the topic is actually nothing special. It’s just what you have done recently, what are your plans for the future, when is my new movie scheduled to be released, and which director are you currently considering?
New movies, etc.
Fortunately, as a top A-lister in Hollywood, Michael Pitt knows much more than ordinary stars and can always find topics that interest Sun Peng.
It wasn't until the second dish was served that Pitt smiled casually and said: "As for the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film this time, I actually think it's a pity... If the box office of "Heroes" is lower, and your laobai's
No matter how famous you are, there shouldn’t be any problem getting into the final nominations!”
"Ah? Why?"
After hearing what her boyfriend said, Angela Bunter asked in surprise: "When it comes to selecting awards, isn't it true that the greater the reputation, the higher the box office, the greater the advantage?"
In their circle of supermodels, this has never been said.
Compared to Angela Bunter's surprise, Sun Peng nodded and said with a smile: "I understand that the Oscars must express the importance and pursuit of art, and at the same time show equal treatment of superstars and ordinary directors... Haha
, To put it bluntly, I want to show that I am fair and not afraid of my power!"
As he talked, Sun Peng himself felt happy.
The last time he happened to see this word, he thought it was Lin Lin quoting the domestic media. Later he found out that it was coming from Hollywood.
So when he heard Sun Peng's words, Michael Pitt also laughed, obviously knowing what he meant.
It was just that his face was echoing Sun Peng, but in his heart, this Hollywood super star was not smiling. In fact, if he and Lao Bai were not eating at the same table, Michael Pitt would even frown.
Show a solemn look!
What is power?
Different people have different judgment standards.
But judging from Michael Pitt’s standards, if you want to refuse but cannot refuse, it is power!
Obviously, in Michael Pitt's eyes, laobai is the kind of big shot that Hollywood wants to keep out, but can't do it at all, and doesn't even dare to mention it publicly!
Exceeding expectations is the root of everything!
If laobai can be like other Chinese filmmakers, no matter how successful they are in their home country, they become invisible to everyone after they come out, then all problems will disappear. Because there are many such people in China, but it is difficult for their works to be popular in Asia
If it is popular outside the country, it cannot pose much of a threat to Hollywood.
For such a person, Hollywood will even go out of its way to praise him.
However, the strategy that has always been successful has gone wrong in laobai. It has continuously dominated the Grammys and produced two world-class music superstars; the animation and movie adapted from the picture book not only won the Japanese box office championship, but also won the summer vacation.
With a box office of 3.5 billion US dollars, the major Hollywood giants were disgraced...
The most important thing is that this guy is only in his thirties!
How could Hollywood not care about such a monster? How could it not want to shut him out or even lock him away in China?
But the reason why Sun Peng meets Michael Pitt's definition of power is because they know that this guy is a threat, but they simply can't refuse!
The reason is naturally very simple, because behind laobai is the whole of China!
Unless Hollywood is willing to take the risk of losing the Chinese market, things like last year's summer break and the failure of "Heroes" to be nominated for Best Foreign Language Film will have to be carried out quietly and must not be taken seriously.
It is placed openly on the countertop.
At least not the major Hollywood companies, nor the well-known filmmakers.
Shaking his head secretly, Michael Pitt couldn't help but increase his admiration for Sun Peng at this time: to make the world's film hegemon so scrupulous, I'm afraid this is the only person in the world who can do it!
"In this case, there is only one way."
Taking a deep breath, Michael Pitt put forward a suggestion with a smile that he had mentioned several times before, but the other party had never agreed to: "Laobai, do you want to try making a movie together?"
If you can't refuse, then just cooperate.
So even though he knew there was little hope, Michael Pitt still naturally brought it up again. But this time, Sun Peng's eyes lit up, he smiled slightly and said, "Okay!"
