The Wolf of Los Angeles

Los Angeles, Playa Vista, Hughes Aircraft Corporation.

The aircraft manufacturing plant that Howard Hughes spent all his efforts to build has long been transformed into a photography base in Hollywood. Its huge aircraft manufacturing plant shed has now become one studio after another.

"Night Walker", invested and produced by Cruise & Bulgari Pictures and directed by Eric Ethan, was officially launched in one of the studios.

Hawke took time to come and take a look. After all, he had reached an agreement with Tom Cruise and would serve as the public relations manager of the "Night Walker" project in another Oscar season.

Although he will not adopt Hollywood's regular award-winning tactics, no matter what, he must have a basic understanding of the film.

Catherine still serves as the producer of the film, but is one of several producers.

She accompanied Hawke and Edward into the open-air street scene shooting area.

A long way from apart, Hawke saw Eric standing on the lift and mobilizing the entire crew.

The investment, scale and number of personnel of "Night Walker" are several times that of the previous "Dark Night Travel" project.

After the training of the two films, Eric has become stronger and has mobilized various departments of the crew in an orderly manner.

The shooting is about to begin, and the three of them are standing in the distance to watch.

Hawke asked Catherine, “Are you involved in the investment too?”

"I invested $8 million." Katherine said it very directly: "The profits of the two projects, "SAR Highland" and "Dark Night Travel", were invested in."

Edward interjected: "Eric deserves such an investment, and the protagonist is Tom Cruise."

A smile appeared on Katherine's square face: "It's not Eric, it's Hawk."

Edward was suddenly shocked. Could this big girl in the square face want to abandon Eric and turn to the boss's arms?

Catherine's words continue: "Haoke wants to run the Oscars for this project. I believe in Hawke's ability. Even today, I still remember what happened at Sundance Film Festival. Hawke operates with a godlike operation. A movie that no one cares about was sold to Castle Stone.”

Hawke smiled, "We had no choice at that time."

Catherine had long understood what happened back then, but she was a profitable person, but she admired even more: "Indeed, we had no choice but to try our best."

"We can fight side by side again when we hit the Oscar next year," Hawke said.

Katherine reached out, shook his hand, and said, "I wish us success."

"Look," Edward reminded, "Tom Cruise is ready to climb the light pole, and the light pole on the screen is about to be born."

The crew was about to start filming, and Hawke and Catherine stopped talking and looked to the other side of the set.

Tom Cruise was wearing a black sportswear and carrying a prop camera on his back, standing in front of a reinforced street light pole.

In order to win the prize next year, he refused to use a stand-in and asked all scenes to be played in person.

Tom Cruise may have problems of one kind or another, but it's pretty good in terms of dedication.

In order to climb the light pole, I practiced specially for half a month.

Because of the frequent shooting of action scenes, Tom Cruise's physical condition is still good and he is ready.

The stunt team also hung a safety rope for him.

With Eric's order, the filming officially began.

Tom Cruise clamped the lamp pole with both feet, hugged his hands hard, crawled up one by one, and soon reached a place close to nine meters high.

He wrapped the rope around the lamp pole, took off the camera he was carrying, and pointed it at the second floor facing the roadside to shoot.

After the camera was shot, Tom Cruise slipped all the way.

Then film the running scene.

As we all know, Cruise's works always find many scenes of the protagonist running wildly.

Running wildly to Cruise is like furniture city to Jackie Chan.

A few more films were filmed, the crew rested, Eric was still busy, and Tom Cruise entered the rest area.

Katherine took Hawke and Edward over.

When Tom Cruise saw Hawk, he stood up and hugged him, saying, "You are finally willing to come to our crew to see it."

Hawke smiled and said, "I've encountered some things recently. I'm too busy. I've just got a chance, so I've come here."

He praised, "You've been watching the filming for a while and your performance is amazing."

Tom Cruise believed in this regard: "For this shooting, I specifically contacted journalists and paparazzi to experience life, learned photography and climbing light poles, and made several months of preliminary preparations."

He emphasized: "I didn't think it was before, but now I found that street light poles are a shortcut to climbing and running away. When I was filming the new "Mission: Impossible", I would ask the director to design a special for Ethan Hant. Street light scene.”

Hawke said: "I believe it will definitely become a classic in action movies."

Tom Cruise saw Catherine go to Eric, and Edward glanced at a woman with a child actor in the crew, lowered his voice and said to Hawk, "Do you have time on the weekend? I'll take you to a party with a mask." That kind is very exciting."

For some reason, Hawke thought of "Open Eye Ring" and declined, "I'm going to visit Erica's house on the weekend, and I have to prepare in advance. This is the first time I've officially arrived."

Tom Cruise nodded: "That should be taken extra seriously, wait until the next chance."

Filming is about to begin again, and Hawke quits the set.

Tom Cruise glanced at him and knew in his heart that Hawke Osmond didn't want to enter his core social circle.

If it were an ordinary person, he would gradually become alienated.

But think of Hawke's Twitter, think of Hawke's easy solution to Pat Kingsley, Tom Cruise made a choice to continue to maintain a good relationship with Hawke.

In the afternoon, the crew finished work on time. Tom Cruise left in advance.

Eric wants to invite Hawke and Edward to dinner.

He asked, "A new Japanese restaurant has been opened nearby. The sushi and sashimi are very good. Do you want to try it?"

Hawke waved his hand, "Let's go and eat cooked food."

Katherine continued, “It’s good to have an Italian restaurant here.”

The four of them went to the restaurant. While eating, Eric suddenly felt a little nauseous, as if his stomach was not feeling well.

"You'd better see a doctor," Hawke advised.

Eric came from Los Angeles from another place and said with a smile: "I've made an appointment and I'll be in the queue next Friday."

"It shouldn't be a serious problem," Katherine said.

Edward asked at this time, "Do you often go to eat Japanese food?"

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!

"Yes." Eric nodded: "That shop tastes really good."

Edward said seriously: "You'd better check the parasites. I found a Japanese woman with a child two years ago. She was a waiter in a Japanese restaurant and often ate some leftover food from customers. Had parasite disease.”

Eric frowned: "No way?"

Edward frightened him: “According to her, there is a parasite that penetrates into people’s brains and people become fools.”

Eric took it seriously: "I contact the doctor and add money to the line."

After the four of them finished their supper, Edward drove Hawke home, drove the Audi A8, and drove all the way to Parisart, and drove into the luxurious villa Eric had photographed with a lift.

He didn't get out of the car and pressed the horn.

Maria Collins came out of the villa with a bag and a bouquet of flowers.

Edward got out of the car, greeted him and kissed Maria, opened the rear door, and placed the flowers and bags on the rear seat.

Maria got into the co-pilot, Edward got into the car and left the villa, and headed straight to the Los Angeles Cemetery, which was not very far away.

The two of them didn't say anything, and they felt particularly exciting when they thought about what they were about to do.

This silent atmosphere even further adds to the stimulation.

Because the two of them were going to the cemetery to visit Maria's ex-husband Miller Collins in the night.

In less than half an hour, Edward drove the Audi into the parking lot near the cemetery, carried the bouquet of flowers in the back seat, and accompanied Maria into the cemetery.

He has been here before. In the first half of the year, he also visited Robert Downey Jr., which is familiar to him.

After passing a fork in the road, Edward looked in the opposite direction, leading to the place where Donny was sleeping.

Every time he and Deborah come over, Donnie will give a good comment below.

If you don’t give a review, of course, you will default to a good review.

The cemetery was built against the mountain, and the two of them walked in. Except for the dark lights and the gravekeepers at the door, they saw no one else.

"Here." Maria turned into a small fork and soon arrived at a place with a not-so-small area.

Edward turned on the flashlight and illuminated it. A familiar photo was posted on the granite tombstone.

Miller Collins' photos when he was still a celebrity wide receiver.

Edward placed the bouquet of flowers in front of Miller's tombstone and said, "I will come to take care of Maria and Dorothy in the future, so you don't have to worry."

After waiting for a while, he said again, "Since you don't object, I will think you agree."

Maria became enemies with Miller Collins. She snatched almost all of her property when she divorced. She would rather mess with her ex-husband than come to find her own actions. She was more than just angry.

At this moment, she came over with her new boyfriend, just like Edward, with only one purpose.

Play poker in front of the tombstone!

Maria unbuttoned her long windbreaker, exposed her black stockings, and urged, "Savior, come and save me!"

"Should you wait a little." Edward took out a piece of yellow talisman paper from his pocket and pasted it on the side of Miller's photo on the tombstone.

This is the product that the boss recommended when he went to a shop opened by Orientals to help Hawke buy erectile ingredient.

Can effectively suppress dead bastards.

Edward has been used by Robert Downey Jr., who gave five-star praise.

The night wind blew by now, and the mountains made a whimpering sound.

At the same time, the sound of playing poker also started to sound.

Maria held the tombstone of her ex-husband with both hands and stabilized her body.

Edward behind her kept her warm in the cool night wind.

In Miller Collins' photo, the former star wide receiver kept laughing.

This scene is very happy.

(It's the New Year, good New Year, everyone, make a fortune in the New Year! Congratulations on making a fortune!" (The end of this chapter)
