Three hundred and fiftieth chapters flaming red lips

There are people coming and going in the banquet hall of the Hilton Hotel. Due to time constraints, there are not many people from Australia who are far away in Hollywood. However, some local celebrities in Sydney were invited by Warner Bros. Australia branch. Many Hollywood stars who filmed in Sydney also walked into the hotel one after another.

Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman are one of them, one of them is filming Mission Impossible 2 on Fox and the other is on vacation in Sydney.

Hi, Kate.

Hi, Nicole.

Seeing where Duke was standing, the two came over immediately, and Nicole Kidman was obviously familiar with Cate Blanchett.

Instead of looking at the two affectionate sister-like women, Duke stood with Tom Cruise and asked, Should the filming be over soon?

There are at most two weeks before we can move to post-production.

Having said this, Tom Cruise said with a hint of gratitude, Duke, I want to thank you for your advice.

Huh? Duke didn't quite understand.

Thank you for suggesting that I start the sequel to Mission: Impossible, and I rejected Eyes Open. Tom Cruise glanced at Nicole Kidman next to him, and then turned his eyes back, Stanley ? Kubrick died of illness and didn't finish his last film.

what a shame.

Although he said so, Duke didn't feel anything about Stanley Kubrick, and he didn't have a special reaction when he heard the news, So, Tom, you made a wise choice, right We all have favorable options.

Choose what? Cate Blanchett asked suddenly.

She and Nicole ended their grinning chatter and returned to Duke and Tom Cruise respectively.

The movie, of course. Duke turned his head and smiled at her. How could the topic we're talking about leave the movie?

He briefly explained a few words to Cate Blanchett. The atmosphere between the two seemed unusually harmonious.

At this time, someone came over to say hello. Duke and Tom Cruise had a few greetings with them respectively. After sending them away, Cruise turned the topic to the sequel to Mission Impossible.

The director you recommended is very good. He seemed to be quite satisfied with Wu Baige, His shootout scenes, especially the double guns designed are very distinctive. I like it very much. I feel that the box office performance of this film...

Hearing Tom Cruise's praise for Wu Baige, Duke was not surprised. After being honed by Broken Arrow and Changing Face, Wu Baige has a clearer grasp of Hollywood, and to put it bluntly, Tom? Cruise's temperament. It is also more in line with his requirements. To a certain extent, it is also closer to the coolness and handsomeness of an actor surnamed Zhou.

Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible 2 can be said to be a super-enhanced version of the actor surnamed Zhou.

Duke, Wu's agent is in contact with my production company.

Tom Cruise continued the conversation just now. He wants to win a director contract for 'Mission Impossible 3' for Wu.

What do you mean, Tom? Duke asked rhetorically.

He owns nearly half of the copyright of the film. If he doesn't nod his head in agreement, Mission Impossible 3 will not decide the director. Projects are impossible.

Nicole Kidman grabbed Cruise and suddenly took over. Pat thinks he is not suitable. Wu's style is too bright, which can easily lead to aesthetic fatigue, and...

Although the latter sentence did not say. But Duke can understand what it means. In any big circle, there are small circles, and the differences in region, skin color, etc. can be completely offset by making a few slogans and making a few successful movies. of.

Tom, this filming has not been completed yet, my opinion. Duke thought for a moment and said, This matter is put on hold for the time being, if the film is successful, Wu's invitations will certainly not be less, and we also have time and opportunity to observe His follow-up.

This is the safest way, and Tom Cruise has no objection.

After talking about the topic of Mission Impossible, Tom Cruise and his wife went to other places to socialize. Duke also walked around the banquet hall, greeted the guests who came over, and then found Cate Bran. Chet, sitting at the small dining table, walked over again.

You don't have to stay with me all the time.

Seeing Duke sitting across from him, Cate Blanchett said, I like quiet, just sit here for a while.

You're the star of the night, Duke said, looking at her.

Blanchett smiled slightly and immediately changed the subject, When I first arrived in Hollywood, I heard from many people in the circle that you and Cruise...

That was in the past. Duke asked for two glasses of champagne and toasted Blanchett. It's good for me and him to work together now. Those little conflicts aren't a problem.

What if it was Mel Gibson? Blanchett asked casually.

Duke put down his glass and looked at Blanchett, as if trying to see what she meant.

Cate Blanchett said quickly, Duke, I didn't mean anything else, I just thought of Mel Gibson. When I got off the plane and went home yesterday, I saw him from a distance near the community.

Oh? Duke looked back and asked with interest, I haven't heard from him for a long time, do you know what he's doing recently?

I heard people mention it. Cate Blanchett recalled and said, He couldn't get any film deals in Hollywood, and he didn't even want to use him in B-movies and independent films, so he had to temporarily return to Australia, occasionally Will appear on several Sydney TV shows.

Looks like he's living a good life? Duke smiled.

Mel Gibson's future in Hollywood is definitely over. Even if he can appear in Hollywood in the future, he will no longer be able to enter the mainstream film circle and can only play a small role.

The two said a few more words, and Nancy Joseph came over with a middle-aged man.

Duke, let me introduce you.

Walking to the table, she introduced the two sides, This is Mr. Jon Streven, the president of Tennis Australia. Jon, this is Director Duke Rosenberg, this is Kate ?Miss Blanchett.

Shaking hands on both sides, after a few simple greetings, they sat around the table.

Nancy asked for a glass of wine for each of the four, and without going around in circles, said directly to Duke, Jon is one of the leaders of the next Australian Open, and he wants to invite you to attend some public events at the Australian Open next year. .

Oh, thanks. Duke nodded to Jon Streep.

We are sincerely inviting you to participate, Director Rosenberg. Streifan could hear that Duke was more polite, so he added, We plan to be at the Australian Open next year. Hold a Celebrity Open Tennis Tournament, with celebrities and tennis players who are willing to participate in some charitable competitions.

He had a sincere face, seemed very urgent, very sincere.

Duke saw Nancy nodding slightly at him, thought for a moment, and said, Jon, I can't give you a clear answer right now, I want to see the schedule.

We look forward to your participation.

Jon Strephan stretched out his right hand here, and Duke shook it. I also like tennis very much, and I also hope to participate in some charity activities to help those in need.

It's easy for Duke to say what kind of things to what kind of people on what occasions.

The Australian Open will not start until the end of January, and it is only November. Duke is not sure if there will be time by then. He can only give the other party a clear answer when the New Year is approaching.

There was a sound of high heels falling, and Cate Blanchett glanced at the place where the sound came from, and suddenly stood up and said to Duke, I'll go to the lounge to get some makeup done.

It was obvious that she didn't want to meet the people who came by.

Cate Blanchett had just left, and Naomi Watts, in a goose-yellow dress, sat next to Duke.

Long time no see Duke. She said with a smile.

The two were extremely familiar, and Duke was not polite to her, asking, When did you come here, why didn't I see you?

There's a traffic jam on the road, just arrived. Her eyes crossed Duke and landed on the distant back, Is that Blanchett?

What happened between you two?

Although the Australian gang has advanced and retreated together on major events, there are definitely many conflicts in private.

Just some disputes over a few roles.

Now Naomi Watts can be said to be in high spirits, full of self-confidence and self-confidence of a big star, I only beat her a few times.

Duke wasn't interested in the bad things about the rivalry between these actresses, and instead asked, Will your King Kong movie come out next year?

Next year's summer. Naomi Watts invited Duke. If you have time, would you like to come and cheer for my premiere?

Having said this, she stood up and gave Duke a charming smile, I'll go say hello to the people from Nancy and Warner, and we'll talk later.

When Naomi Watts left, Duke also stood up and walked to the other side. Not far away were several lounges connected to the banquet hall. Cate Blanchett had just walked into the one on the far left. between.

Before coming to the lounge, Duke knocked on the door lightly, then pushed the door and walked in. Cate Blanchett turned her back to the door and seemed to be looking in the mirror. He went straight over and stood on the chair where she was sitting. Behind.

Honey……

He bent down, his lips close to Blanchette's white ears, You look charming enough.

Really? Cate Blanchett took a lip gloss from her bag.

certainly.

Saying that, Duke tentatively kissed her ear. Seeing Blanchett shaking his head, but there was no obvious resistance, he couldn't help but stretch out a hand and gently pull her face, without hesitation. kiss on the flaming red lips. (To be continued ~^~)
