Global Movie Emperor

"Now that everyone knows each other, let's sit down quickly. I'm sorry for being late for our first meeting. I hope you don't mind. I brought a few bottles of pretty good wine. We'll try it later. I'm really sorry. "

"Mr. Gambiano, you're too kind, supervisor, it's time to serve."

Mickey snapped his fingers, and the restaurant manager nodded in agreement, then turned to the kitchen to give the order to serve. After everyone sat down, the bodyguard brought by Gambiano handed several bottles of wooden-packaged wine to the waiter and sat down. Rest on the distant seat.

"I am honored to be one of the Universal Brothers. What makes me even more happy is that I can communicate with two outstanding film art practitioners today. Today, we will not go home until we are drunk. The waiter will be the second in five minutes. One glass of wine, and ten minutes later a second glass, and according to this routine, one glass every five minutes, all the wine is opened and decanted at the same time.”

At this time, Lu Ze noticed that his hands were very wide and did not fit his height and body shape at all. However, these hands were very white and had no calluses. It was obvious that he was a pampered man.

He stretched out his hand, opened his fingers to the waiter, and also revealed the huge emerald ring on his middle finger. It was very clean and transparent under the light. With his sensitivity to weight, Lu Ze deduced that this ring would definitely not Less than ten carats.

His eyes followed his wrist downwards, passing through the custom-made Patek Philippe for auction. Hidden under the white shirt were traces of tattoos less than one centimeter wide on the cuffs.

He didn't look at him too much. After all, this was considered impolite behavior. As soon as he looked up, Lu Ze found that Gambiano was also looking at him. The two looked at each other. He showed a kind smile to Lu Ze. However, Nodding too obviously, Lu Ze also responded. However, the thumb and middle finger of his right hand hidden under the table rubbed each other twice as if they were snapping.

"Try the wine I brought. It's not a big brand. It's just wine brewed by my own winery. It doesn't even have a trademark. It's only for family members to drink. It's not available outside. Don't mind."

"No, no, no, I believe it will definitely not be bad."

"Actually, this wine has some origins. This was the first time I made it myself when I was twelve years old. The weather was good that year, and the grapes grew very well. However, I made less wine, and when I was eighteen years old I took it out to entertain the guests at the coming-of-age ceremony. There was not much wine left. If I hadn’t met you two, it would be really hard to open it. However, as long as you two like it, it’s worth the money. Come on, cheers."

The waiter poured the first glass of wine. Because the vintage was a bit old and the time for sobering up was short, the wine glass was slightly turbid when it was pointed at the light. However, the sweetness of the grapes had already begun to dissipate when it was poured out, stirring up the wine in the body. Insects give people an uncontrollable desire to drink.

After eating some white bread, Lu Ze put the wine glass under his nose and sniffed it. It seemed that some other ingredients were put into it to make the flavor richer and more complex.

After taking a sip, the aroma of the wine began to flow on his tongue. He even had the idea of ​​holding his breath because he didn't want the aroma to be exhaled with the air. The sobering time was too short, and there was a slight astringency in the mouth. The unknown raw materials had a hint of astringency. It has a bitter taste, but after entering the throat, it has a mellow and sweet taste similar to chocolate.

But this is just one of the flavors, existing on top of the base notes. The front notes and middle notes contain far more than this one taste. The various flavors are very clear and are not masked by the chocolate flavor. As long as you taste it carefully, you will feel You can feel their presence, and the layering is very clear.

"Coffee beans?"

Because Lu Ze was very sensitive to the taste of coffee beans, but because of the mixture of various flavors, he was not sure whether his answer was correct, so he could only try to ask.

"Can you drink it? It's very powerful. What about the other flavors?"

Gambiano seemed very happy and gave Lu Ze a thumbs up. He didn't mind Lu Ze's response with just a slight smile, because he also knew that Europeans are extremely familiar with the taste of coffee beans. Anyone with a better tongue can taste this taste, and can also give similar answers like cocoa beans.

His praise was not purely a compliment to Lu Ze's wine tasting ability, but more of an excuse to express his appreciation for Lu Ze, and Lu Ze also noticed this.

"The other flavors...can't be tasted, but they taste good."

"The other flavors are all derived from the brewing recipe. Wines from other years also have this flavor. If you like it, I can give you some. I only have coffee beans because I was very naughty when I was a kid. I always like to add some when making wine. The strange smell caused by the weird things in it. Of course, except for the wine with coffee beans added, the rest was terrible. I poured it all out. It seems that I have a fate with you, so I poured it in. The coffee beans are all produced in Yunnan, China, and when I wanted to replicate this taste again, all the raw materials were the same, but there was just no taste like these bottles.”

"Perhaps, the right time, right place and right people are both indispensable."

"I like what you said."

Maybe in the eyes of the admirer, whatever the admired person said was pleasing to the ears. He praised Lu Ze again, which made Lu Ze not know what kind of attitude to put on, so he could only smile and clink glasses with the two of them again. , but it is undeniable that this wine is really delicious.

"By the way, why aren't Brother Mendeleev here?"

"They are busy preparing for a new movie, so they have not been free for a while. They also want to take this opportunity of me and Lu Ze being present to say no to Mr. Gambiano. I am sorry that I was raped by you for the first time. I just missed the date when I was invited.”

Mickey thought he wouldn't ask the Russian brothers again. After all, he asked after they were already drunk. It did seem a bit too insincere. He still wanted to ask Lucas for help, let alone Mickey. Lucas probably If they knew it, they would not be willing to work as a temporary worker under him.

Of course, Mickey couldn't tell Lucas about this either.

Gambiano actually hesitated for a long time before asking this question. After all, he also knew that asking questions now was a bit unreasonable. But when he first entered the door, his eyes were attracted by Lu Ze, who was not as good as Long Yang. This kind of joy is that I like it at first glance, and it seems suitable for me, and then I accidentally forget about Lucas...

But not to mention it is even more inappropriate. Not to say a word is too disrespectful to take the Maozi brothers seriously. Now he only feels regret, very regretful... However, this kind of regret was brought to light by the news revealed by Mickey. transferred.

"You don't need to call me Gambiano. I believe that in the future, we will not only become partners, but also friends in life. Just call me Faldi. By the way, that is to say, Global Brothers is back Establishing a new project?”

Lu Ze and Mickey looked at each other and felt that there was nothing they couldn't tell the new shareholders. Of course, the specific content of the script could not be disclosed, but it was not impossible to inform others about the new project.

"yes."

"Then who is the leading actor?"

"it's me."

Lu Ze took the initiative to admit it, and then returned his attention to the main dish, Beef Wellington. The puff pastry was delicious, and the beef was also delicious. However, the taste of the mushroom sauce did not suit his taste. After one bite, he put it down. Then I asked the waiter to fill up the wine.

"That means you have no schedule during this period?"

"That's right."

"What about Lucas?"

"Same."

Falti didn't speak, but drank a large glass of wine. At this moment, he finally understood what it meant to feel pain in the throat when bitter wine entered his throat... He wiped his mouth, smiled bitterly, and swallowed back what he wanted to say just now. .

Mickey saw that he was unnatural, and in order to take care of the new boss, he asked.

"You need both of them very much?"

"Yes, I have a film here that I hope to cooperate with the two of them. Since my father manages the family's company in the art field, I have been playing in Gambiano Film Company since I was a child. When I grew up, I took over the first One industry is a large theater. Because of my interest, I have also been a director of operas and stage plays. Under the influence of my ears and eyes, my interest in movies has become more and more important. Finally, I made up my mind, picked an idle script in the company, and edited it a little bit. After revising it, I want to try making a movie to see if I am suitable for this industry. If I am suitable, and if I really achieve results, then I will treat directing as a career. If I am not suitable, then I will feel at ease. Forget about being in management.”

Well, he is another young man who cannot become a director and will go back to inherit a billionaire family fortune. Mickey suddenly felt that the steak was no longer tasty, and a burst of bitter tears welled up in his eyes. The tablecloth he was wiping his mouth was bitten in his mouth, and he almost lost it. The tablecloth was eaten.

Why is it that he is so poor that he almost sold his ass just to make a movie, but he can just buy a stake in a company and lure the employees and even the boss of the company to help him realize his dream? Is this something humans do?

Can you do whatever you want if you have money?

This time it was Mr. Mickey's turn to take the bitter drink down his throat. To adjust his mood, he still had to smile at Faerty, otherwise he would offend the young master and risk being shot by a gunman while walking on the street.

"As a new director, you'd better choose an experienced director to help you, so that you can minimize risks and maximize your dream. Do you have a candidate for this person?"

"Originally, I thought about finding a great director as an assistant director to help me realize my dream. The original candidate was Giuseppe, but after thinking about it, it made more sense to realize my dream by myself. If I asked someone to help me, then It’s no longer my personal work.”

Damn!

This is what Mickey wants to say, Giuseppe Tornatore! My idol! The director of "Cinema Paradiso", "Beautiful Legend of Sicily", and "The Pianist on the Sea"! You just made a test film. Do you need to ask an old man who is almost 70 years old to come out? I really want to be a soldier for him but I can't find a way! You said I would be your assistant director, so I will be my assistant director! Damn!

Class contradictions arise...

Not to mention Mickey, even Lu Ze shuddered after hearing this and almost spit the wine back into the glass. Thinking that he might have grown up in Giuseppe's arms, the wine suddenly had a sour taste...

This kind of longing for idols was shattered by the understatement of the wealthy family. The two of them were so depressed!

Regarding this, Mickey's heart was already in a state of turmoil, but when facing the eldest young master, he still had to pretend to be calm, but his smile became a little embarrassing, and he even laughed so much that even Faldi's bodyguards had to stand up, because in their eyes Here, the smiles of the two lemon spirits are indeed a bit ferocious at this moment...

"Since you and Lucas have already made a film appointment, give yourself some extra time to make up lessons. Now that I think about it, it is indeed a bit too hasty. Take advantage of this time to enrich your ideas."

"That's the truth. By the way, I haven't asked yet, what kind of movie do you want to make?"

"To test the waters... I want to make a commercial film. I envision... I want to make a killer who is not powerful enough to fight one against a hundred that I have ever seen."
