"Will it rain in this weather?"

Paris, Charles de Gaulle International Airport, Link looked at the blue sky above his head, the bright sun was similar to that in New York, and there was no sign of rain. This made him doubt the weather forecast in France. If it didn't rain in the past two days, he would It will be a wasted trip.

"The French weather forecast says it will rain tonight in the Paris area."

Anna followed up and said.

Link nodded and walked for a few minutes after getting off the plane. He also felt a bit stuffy. Paris has a temperate maritime climate. The average outdoor temperature in June and July is 18°C. A feeling of stuffiness means the weather is abnormal and there are signs of rain.

"Are you here? Which exit is it?"

As soon as I arrived at the T2E terminal, I received a message from Marion Cotillard on my phone.

Link replied and found that there were more than twenty text messages and seven or eight missed calls on his phone.

There was a message from Evaca, asking him to report that he was safe after landing.

There was a message from Catherine saying that she had just met with Jennifer Lawrence and everything went well.

There was a message from Selena, asking him if the news about seeing a ghost in a Broadway theater was true or false? What does that female ghost look like? Is she pretty? She also called him a scumbag who even picks up female ghosts.

There are also messages from Paul Walker, Dino Duvall, James, Eminem, Emma Stone, Emma Roberts, Emma Watson, Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Beyoncé and others Information.

Most of them asked about his dream about a female ghost singing.

Since both he and "The Phantom of the Opera" are very popular, after the story was exposed by Tiffany, it was reprinted and reported by many online media and self-media, causing heated discussions on the Internet and becoming one of the hot topics in the current entertainment industry.

Netizens not only discussed it online, but many people also went to Broadway theaters to check in and said they wanted to sleep there to see if they had a chance to hear the ghost singing.

Because too many people came to visit, it affected the normal operation of the theater.

The theater had to stand up and say that there were absolutely no ghosts in the theater, saying that Link's dream of a ghost singing was entirely accidental.

Despite this, netizens still couldn't stop their curiosity, causing the Broadway theater to be full. When the musical "The Lion King" was performed on stage, many people fell asleep in the audience.

Afterwards, more than a dozen Internet celebrities said that they actually heard a woman singing after falling asleep.

Some people said they didn't hear it, probably because "The Lion King" was playing on the stage instead of "The Phantom of the Opera."

The incident made a big fuss and aroused the curiosity of acquaintances such as Paul Walker, who sent messages asking him about the 'initiator'.

Link replied to a few messages and told everyone that it was true. If you don’t believe it, you can go and experience it live.

After Bob and Wallace got their luggage, the group of four walked out of the airport in a low-key manner. He wore a peaked cap and sunglasses, covering half of his face, and Anna and the three also wore sunglasses, like a team of agents.

But when he walked out of the terminal, he was still recognized by a paparazzi.

‘Mr Linkback! ’

a paparazzi shouted.

More than a dozen paparazzi rushed out and took pictures of him.

"Mr. Baker, are you coming to Paris this time for work or for a date with Marion Cotillard?"

"Mr. Baker, there are media reports that you interfered in the relationship between Marion Cotillard and Guillaume Canet, causing a crisis in their relationship. What explanation do you have for this?"

"Mr. Baker, the Internet said that you dreamed of a ghost lady singing while watching "Phantom of the Opera". Is this story true or a gimmick?"

Faced with the paparazzi's inquiries, Link answered a few questions and insisted that he and Marion were friends and had no messy relationship. He hoped that everyone would not make random guesses.

The paparazzi didn't believe it and said they had photos of him spending the night at Marion's house last month.

Link said that he and Marion were good friends and it was normal to spend the night at a friend's house.

He signed autographs to more than a dozen fans who gathered around him, and was escorted out of the airport by Wallace and airport staff.

"Link, here!"

Arriving at Avenue Charles de Gaulle, a woman wearing a suspender silk skirt and French curls waved at him. An apple-green Beetle was parked next to her.

This sexy French lady is none other than Marion Cotillard. She is 35 years old this year. She made her debut in 1992. She has starred in hit French films such as "Taxi Express", "Little Children" and "A Long Engagement". "La Vie en Rose" won the Academy Award for Best Actress.

Although her appearance is not as stunning as that of her predecessor, French Rose Sophie Marceau, she has a classic and graceful temperament, with blue-gray eyes, red lips, sexy nose, full of literary style, and is a very sexy and cool person. woman.

Around Marion Cotillard, there were dozens of media reporters and paparazzi, taking photos of the two of them with cameras.

Seeing these people, Link could guess that she also attracted several paparazzi in the hall.

"Hi, Marion!"

In the presence of many reporters, he embraced Marion Cotillard generously.

"do you miss me?"

Marion also kissed him generously on the face, blinked her charming eyes like a deer, and curved her red lips and smiled.

"Of course, I have been thinking about you, your lips, and your voice since the day I left Paris. Now that I smell your scent, there is only one thing on my mind, possessing you."

Link hugged her and spoke softly in French.

"I miss you too, can you feel my whole body shaking?"

The two looked at each other, and even the atmosphere around them became ambiguous.

"Mr. Baker."

Before the reporters and paparazzi could swarm up, Link pulled Marion Cotillard into the car.

The car rumbled and sped down the express lane of Charles de Gaulle Airport.

"Chase!"

The reporters and paparazzi also started their cars and started a fierce chase on the highway from the airport to downtown Paris.

Link relied on his superb driving skills and super-fast reaction speed to weave left and right in the dense traffic, driving the car at a speed of more than 80 yards.

Because the car was going too fast, Marion grabbed the seat and screamed from time to time, telling him to go faster and slower.

After driving for more than ten kilometers, Link made several flexible lane changes and quickly left the paparazzi convoy behind him far away.

"How are my driving skills?"

Link held the steering wheel and smiled.

"It's great, it's so exciting."

Marion Cotillard grabbed the handle and shouted excitedly.

Link looked in the rearview mirror and smiled.

"Link, go over there, I want to kiss you."

Marion leaned closer and exhaled hot breath.

Link looked at the surrounding situation and turned the car into a public parking lot in Villette Park in the 19th arrondissement. As soon as the car stopped, the two of them looked at each other and hugged each other warmly.

After kissing for more than ten minutes, they were about to transfer to the back seat to continue the romance to the end.

The phone in Link's pocket rang. He hugged Marion and hung up, but the phone rang again without mercy.

He took it out and saw that it was Director Woody Allen's phone number.

"Link, where are you?"

Director Allen shouted loudly on the phone, seemingly unhappy.

"In the car, in the car coming to the crew, it takes about one, no, two hours to report to the crew."

"Don't lie to me. I just saw the news. You arrived at Charles de Gaulle Airport twenty minutes ago. It only takes forty minutes to get to the crew. What do you want for two hours? Link, remember, you are an actor. You came to Paris to film, not to mess around."

Director Allen is a very verbose guy. Not only is he verbose in daily life, but in his movies, the protagonists' lines are usually also verbose.

Sometimes a line of dialogue is as long as 8 pages, and a lot of it is meaningless nonsense. This level of verbosity can only be matched by director Quentin Tarantino.

Listening to Director Allen's ramble, he put his cell phone on the seat and continued talking to Marion Kiss and Caresse.

Director Allen talked for a few minutes on the other end of the phone. He seemed to hear something and suddenly shouted: "Link!! What are you doing? I asked you something, why didn't you respond?"

Chi chi chi~

Marion Cotillard couldn't help but laugh out loud, and finally couldn't hold it in any longer, raising her sexy swan neck and bursting into laughter.

"."

The voice on the other end of the phone was also silent.

Link quickly picked up the phone and said, "I heard it, I'll come over and report it right away."

"Huh, half an hour, half an hour at most. It's going to rain in Paris tonight. You'd better come over and make preparations. Don't miss this heavy rain."

"I know, see you later!"

After hanging up the phone, he sighed and said, "It seems our date will have to be later."

"Haha, haven't you reconciled yet?"

Marion asked with a smile as she pulled up the straps of her skirt.

"No, it's difficult to reconcile."

"It's okay. You can have a good talk after the filming is over. Director Allen is not a stubborn person."

Marion said, kissing his cheek.

Link nodded and started the car.

He had no expectations for reconciliation with Director Allen.

The conflict between him and director Allen existed from the beginning of filming.

The main reason is that there are big differences between the two in their performance methods.

Director Allen is an actor and has been nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actor.

When creating "Midnight in Paris", he originally planned to write, direct and star in it, but he was too old to fall in love in the movie, so he found Link as a last resort.

Because of this, the male protagonist of the movie was created based on his own personality, which is boring, funny, a little silly, and nagging that cannot be changed.

During filming, director Allen also asked him to act like this.

Link tried it, but it didn't work.

He is not the kind of man who is sullen, verbose, and silly, and he is not good at playing such a role. It would be awkward to force the role.

He went to Director Allen to discuss and proposed to streamline some of the lines so that the protagonist would not look so wordy and devoid of masculinity at all.

Director Allen refused and asked him to continue performing.

He reluctantly acted for a few days, but the more he acted, the less immersive he felt, so he was suggested to change the role to someone else.

Director Allen also saw some problems and had no choice but to agree to make some fine adjustments to the character based on his appearance and personality.

Later during the filming, the two had many conflicts over how to change the scene, whether to change more or less, etc.

Director Allen was reluctant to make major changes and still wanted the male protagonist to look like himself.

Link didn't want to become another Woody Allen. He wanted to completely own this role, so he studied the role seriously, performed hard, and wrote an autobiography of more than 20,000 words for the actor.

With the help of Marion Cotillard, Jennifer Lawrence and others, he continued to improve and perfect his performance, making the character three-dimensional and vivid.

Also because his acting is getting better and better and more convincing.

Director Woody Allen was forced to accept it, but he still felt unhappy and found fault with him during filming, making things difficult for him.

This was one of the reasons for the conflict between the two.

Another reason was what the director's assistant Frank Alera told him, saying that when Director Allen selected the heroines of the movie, he would choose the ones he liked and that met his aesthetic standards, and fall in love with them during filming, so that he could make them more beautiful.

But after Director Allen fell in love with Marion Cotillard and Jennifer Lawrence, he was shocked to find that both women had been slept with by Link.

Frank said that after hearing about this, Director Allen almost went crazy and scolded Link severely.

After that, during filming, his attitude towards Link became more strict, and he would be sarcastic and do all kinds of PUA.

But Link accepted it all and persisted to the end.

It was also because of his persistence that Director Allen couldn't get rid of his anger in his heart, so he was so irritable and unyielding.

Link didn't care about it.

Director Allen is a highly skilled and respected director.

During the filming of Midnight in Paris, despite all the criticisms, he also learned a lot of useful things in the process.

His acting skills also improved significantly during the performance, and he also learned a lot of French painting and literary works.

The gains were greater than the efforts, and he was too lazy to argue with an old man.
