Chapter 1135: Private party

The deserted road passes between the low hills, and a large area of ​​green hides a number of villas with detached houses. It seems that wherever it goes, it is barren land, but it seems that it has entered the town at this time. Land boundary. A cloud of mist lingers on the far-end mountain, slowly tossing in the flow of the setting sun, and the verdant mountain and turquoise lake are looming in the mist.

Suddenly, all the surrounding shelter disappeared, and the endless sandy beach appeared in front of you. The mist rolled over the sea, looking magnificent against the bright red sunset on the horizon, but the calm sea came out. The roar came from all directions, but it was impossible to find the exact source of the sound. The hazy water vapor and fog rolled in the line of sight, and some scenery at the end of the sea level could be seen vaguely, as if that was it. The legendary mirage is generally.

"So, this is Huntington Beach(.)?" Hugo raised his eyebrows slightly. He didn't expect that Huntington Beach, which was said to be more lively than Santa Monica, was so deserted.

"You know it's winter, right?" Samora asked with a grin while driving.

Hugo nodded, "Of course, but this is too..." Hugo looked at the depression and run-down outside the window, and could hardly believe that he was in California now, and he was only less than 30 minutes away from Los Angeles by car.

“Last year, the treasurer of the city government in Orange County (orange.) made a lot of losses when investing in derivative financial products. The government had to declare bankruptcy and repay it with layoffs and reduced municipal services. Now it’s a mess and it hasn’t recovered. Come here." Joseph explained briefly.

In Orange County, Hugo learned more about this Los Angeles county under the name of "Orange County." This is one of the most famous wealthy areas in California. Unlike Malibu, which became the back garden for the rich to spend their holidays, most of the people living here are white middle-class or wealthy families. Although they are not the top wealthy, they have rich family properties. It also makes the whole county form a small circle of self-protection. Orange County is one of the most obvious Republican counties in the United States, and their conservative attitude is not inferior to Utah.

However, the Orange County in Hugo's impression is a rich and sunny image after the 21st century. At this time, Orange County, which has just experienced bankruptcy, is filled with a kind of despair. Of course, the unending winter weather in March is also one of the important reasons. That's why Hugo saw such a unique scenery.

"Choosing here as the venue for the dinner is an ingenious decision." Hugo felt the car slowly slowed down, and the surrounding scenery began to become clear.

In front of me is a private house, not a villa, but a two-storey house with a detached house. There is a small garden in front of it, and a garage with only two cars next to it. This is true for many middle-class families. It is even more inconspicuous in Orange County, because almost all the houses around are the same.

The New Line Film Company arranged the dinner here tonight. Obviously, it was to avoid people's eyes. Hugo looked around. This is a community with a very strong atmosphere of life. There is no special place. There are also vehicles parked on the street. Not too much, they are neatly placed and not noticeable at all.

Samora stopped the car and turned around and said, "Get out of the car first, I will park the car a little farther away." Hugo's license plate number is almost always remembered by reporters in Los Angeles, so avoid accidents, Samora Don't plan to park the car in a conspicuous place.

Hugo and Joseph got out of the car and looked at the house number in front of them. Joseph confirmed, "Yes, it's here."

The two went through the front garden and rang the doorbell. After a while, someone came to open the door, revealing a very strange face, about fifty years old, with a white beard, gray hair neatly combed into twenty-eight, with a gentle face on his face. Smile, it looks like a university professor full of wisdom.

"Hey, see what guests are here." With surprise on his face, he said cheerfully, "Welcome, Hugo, Joseph, this is Dan Colesrud (dan.)."

The host proficiently said the names of Hugo and Joseph, but it was the first time that Hugo and the others saw each other, which made the scene a bit weird, as if they were attending a secret meeting on the street. Dan was keenly aware of Hugo's hesitation, he didn't mind, and he took the initiative to say, "My daughter's room is full of glorious to death posters. If I don't understand at all, then this father is too incompetent. ."

An ingenious answer, instead of mentioning the recent movie news, but in a different way to mention the band, and it was still in the name of a child. Just a meeting, you can see Dan's sophistication.

Hugo remembered what Rick had mentioned before leaving. Today’s dinner is a private party, and the scale is not large. The organizer is not an insider, but a lawyer—a lawyer who handles divorce cases. It can be seen that New Line Film Company took great pains for this dinner, everything is very low-key. So, this Dan in front of him is a divorce lawyer.

"This has helped me a lot. Whenever I visit someone else's house, the links of self-introduction and polite greetings always make me very worried. I am afraid that I will not speak properly and make the host uncomfortable. Then the next dinner will be terrible." It was Joseph who was talking, and with a friendly smile on his face, he said leisurely, and Dan suddenly laughed after some self-deprecation.

"Hehe, many times, embarrassment is part of the dinner, isn't it? Every embarrassing moment at the Thanksgiving table is always an essential part. I always look forward to the moment when everyone looks at each other and has nothing to say." Dan's words immediately aroused the atmosphere, and then he slightly stepped aside, "So, do I have the honour to invite you in?"

"I think we should buy a bottle of red wine and come back." The expression on Hugo's face also became active and took the conversation. "Otherwise, isn't it too rude?"

Before the departure, none of them expected that today would actually be a private dinner, because the news that Rick received confirmed that New Line Film Company had invited many people, at least 20 people. So this is more like a small party than a private dinner. It's like the New Year's Eve party where the "Sugar Coated Trap" auditioned, but on a smaller scale.

Generally speaking, you need to bring some souvenirs when you go to other people's homes, but you don't need them for parties. Therefore, Hugo and the others came empty-handed, but now it seems out of place.

While Hugo apologized, he wondered what the **** was New Line Studios doing today? Joseph was also puzzled at this time.

"Believe me, the last thing I need for dinner today is wine. Annie-my wife-has repeatedly emphasized to me that if someone is drinking in the restaurant or lobby tonight, I don't want to go back to the bedroom tonight. Beer. And champagne is her bottom line." Dan still said calmly, with a relaxed smile on his face, obviously this was what he expected.

Hugo and Joseph looked at each other, but they could only let the flow go. At least, judging from the current signs, the new line film company has no plans to hype, which is a positive sign.

"Oh, yes, Hugo's assistant, Samora is parking, I..." Joseph then remembered, if it's a party, then there is no problem when you enter, but it seems to be a private dinner, even opening the door requires self Introduce, then it will be more troublesome for Samora to come here alone.

Dan interrupted Joseph's words, "I'm still curious, why Samora and Rick didn't show up, don't worry, I reserved a place for them tonight." It seemed that the other party was really ready.

"Rick, he came here in another car." Joseph looked at Hugo and said vaguely.

In fact, before they set off, they were still worried about being followed by the paparazzi. Hugo has been monitored by the paparazzi recently, and even when jogging in the morning, there are paparazzi following them. Therefore, Rick became a decoy, he and Carl, Charlize took the lead in another car to set off-Charlize was also invited to the dinner tonight, she hopes to play the heroine.

Judging from the news contacted just now, Rick is indeed entangled by the paparazzi, so Hugo is all right here.

Dan raised his eyebrows slightly, and said nothing more, "Then I think it would be a wise choice for you to go in and enjoy some desserts or fruits."

Hugo and Joseph just entered the room. The two went to the locker room to take off their coats and exchanged glances. Obviously, tonight's audition and expectations have changed a lot, but they don't have time to discuss now, they can only take one step at a time.

After leaving the locker room ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Hugo had time to look at the situation in the room. At this time, there were a dozen people standing in the room casually, everyone nodded and greeted familiarly, although Hugo could not remember The name, and face blindness, but from Joseph's reaction, it can be seen that these are acquaintances in the circle, at least not unfamiliar faces.

This is like a secret club, only certain people can enter, and everyone may not know each other, but they are not strangers. Although it is a dinner party, it is actually a small party, but it is more private and intimate.

At this time, people kept coming up to say hello to Hugo. Hugo didn’t remember a single name, but they knew that they were not the top executives of the New Line Film Company or the confirmed members of the "Seven Deadly Sins" crew. This also made the purpose of the dinner more clear. stand up. Hugo couldn't help but sigh. New Line Film Company took great pains to audition tonight.

But... why? Isn't that one-on-one audition won't work? Isn't it possible to communicate over the phone? Why spend so much effort to host a secret dinner?

"Hey, Hugo!" A voice came over, interrupting Hugo's thoughts. Hugo reappeared with a polite smile on his face, ready to greet him, but when he saw the person coming, he couldn't help but was stunned.

The person here is Tom Cruise.
