Age of Dreams

March 1, United States.

Scarlett was exercising in the gym of her own villa. Since she had been running for an hour, her sweat almost fell like rain.

She has always been a very serious girl. In order to maintain her figure, she has made a lot of efforts, and this non-stop physical exercise every day is just one of them.

However, today she is obviously a little restless.

Thinking too much exhausted her mind, so she felt more and more tired.

At this moment, Tina knocked on the door and walked in.

Scarlett quickly turned her head to look over, and found that Tina's face was not a smile, but a look of regret, and her heart sank suddenly.

"Snapped!"

She turned off the treadmill, wiped off her sweat, gulped down a large bottle of mineral water, and let out a long breath before she settled down.

"Did it fail?" Scarlett asked her cousin.

"Yes." Tina replied.

"Then who got the role in the end?" Scarlett asked with a frown.

"Jennifer Lawrence."

Scarlett was immediately unhappy, "Her? How much worse am I than her? In terms of status, dedication, and our background and relationships, how could we lose to her?"

Tina sighed, "Because you are too short."

"What?" Scarlett didn't hear clearly.

Tina repeated her words, "This is what Director Cameron told me personally, you only have this shortcoming, and according to the needs of the novel, he wants a strong and tall heroine, so you lose To Lawrence."

"Bah~~"

Without outsiders, Scarlett immediately spat lightly like a little girl, "I've read the novel, it can be changed completely! I know, it must be that Cameron has played his peculiar hobby, always He likes to use handsome guys, but he desperately tortures the heroine. Either a fat man or an old woman!"

Tina couldn't help laughing.

There is nothing to say about Cameron's selection of leading actors in movies, but he has always been criticized for his vision in choosing actresses.

What Scarlett said was the two most critical points of people.

The first fat man said Winslet. In the performance of the Titanic, the British simply hated Cameron's aesthetics. In their opinion, choosing Julia Roberts was better than the fat Winslet.

As for the old woman, let alone.

The heroine of the first and second episodes of The Terminator. That is, the one who later became Mrs. Cameron was really not beautiful, and she was obviously older.

There is also Schwarzenegger's wife in True Lies. Although she is a mother with a teenage daughter, she doesn't have to be so old and ugly, right?

Even when Schwarzenegger asked her to dance that hot dance, countless people complained that they couldn't stand it anymore!

Think about it, if this dance was performed by Monica Bellucci, how touching it would be!

"You still laugh~~"

Scarlett was already very angry, but when she saw her cousin laughing heartlessly, she immediately pouted. He immediately lay down on the wooden floor of the gym, looking like "I'm not happy, come and comfort me".

"Scarlett!" Tina called her nickname, and knelt down in front of her, "Do you know why I'm in a good mood?"

"I don't know!" Scarlett closed her eyes and said lazily, "Anyway, I know that I lost a trilogy of sci-fi action movies, which invested 500 million U.S. dollars, and the director is the world's number one commercial director Kame Long! Don't stop me, Tina. I'm ready to be sad."

"Tch, why are you sad, you should be happy!" Tina pinched her baby-like face.

"Happy?" Scarlett smiled wryly with her eyes closed, "Sister, you didn't wake up, did you?"

"Let me tell you!" Tina laughed, "Do you know why Director Cameron asked you to audition? Everyone knows that you are busy playing the role of Black Widow!"

"Maybe it's because I'm famous, a new generation of Hollywood female superstars, haha!" Scarlett smiled carelessly.

"Go, go!" Tina said amusedly, "Don't you think Director Cameron is very polite to us? It's different from his usual serious and harsh appearance?"

"Is this because the filming hasn't started yet? And he's so old. Can he still have such a temper?" Scarlett sneered at Cameron. She is usually not sharp-tongued, but now there are no outsiders , she naturally wants to vent her anger of losing the election.

"It's not because of this!" Tina shook her head. "I just heard a new news today. I heard that he was so polite to you because you were one of the three heroine candidates recommended by investors."

"Investor recommendation? Three heroine candidates?" Scarlett suddenly opened her beautiful eyes, "Xiao Qi!?"

"yes!"

Tina smiled and said, "I heard that after Xiao Qi decided to let Cameron direct "The Hunger Games", he didn't recommend the male lead, but he recommended three beauties for the female lead!"

"You know there are three, so what's so strange? I'm one of the most famous actresses of the new generation, right? And I had a good chat with Xiao Qi last time, and he doesn't know that much in Hollywood. It's not too strange to recommend me." Scarlett shrugged.

"Aren't you going to ask who the other two are?" Tina smiled slightly, and said it herself without waiting for Scarlett to ask questions: "It's Anna and Kaisha from Big Machine Company."

"what!?"

Scarlett thought she heard it wrong, "You mean those two female singers who sing very well?"

"Yes, it's them!"

"Cut~ Kai's singing is okay, how can she act? Even though Anna is nominated for Best Supporting Actress at this year's Oscars, but she has no experience in acting in action movies, isn't this a joke?" Scarlett dismissed. the way.

"That's the problem." Tina tilted her head and asked her, "Xiao Qi only recommended three female celebrities, two of whom are unattractive at first glance, but the third one is you, a very It is suitable for the female star of "The Hunger Games", isn't this specifically explaining to Cameron that he values ​​you very much?"

"Who did you hear that from?" Scarlett pondered for a while, and said, "If he really valued me, then Cameron wouldn't change. And I can't find the reason why Xiao Qi would work so hard to help me You said he was greedy for me? Don't be kidding! There are so many beauties around him, and he prefers oriental beauties, how could he want me?"

"Director Cameron said this to me personally." Tina said seriously.

"No?"

"Really!" Tina said, "Director Cameron called me just now, and he talked for a long time, meaning that this time your failure was purely because you didn't fit the heroine in the book. By the way, he also After talking about Xiao Qi's advice to him, I felt quite embarrassed... I think he misunderstood your relationship with Xiao Qi, and he was worried that you would sue Xiao Qi!"

"Hmph, if Xiao Qi were my man, I would definitely sue him! Let him go! Change the director and let my mother do the filming!" Scarlett slapped her hands.

"My eldest lady, you and Xiao Qi must be husband and wife." Tina laughed a little, "Okay, what I mean by telling you this is not to say anything else, since Xiao Qi treats you well , you might as well give him a call to thank him, try to maintain this kind of friendship between you, it will be very useful for your future development!"

"Friendship?" Scarlett rolled her eyes at her, "You can just tell me to act coquettishly, it's best to electrocute Xiao Qi to death!"

"If you have the ability, you can do it!" Tina did not show weakness, "I have been tired for the past few years, and it happens that you are Mrs. Xiao, and I will help you manage the property! Let's ask Xiao Qi to buy Universal NBC Giving it to you is better than the Marvel company bought to Taylor!"

Scarlett was speechless, "Sister, we are not short of money!"

"Not short of money and super rich are two different things, okay?" Tina also gave her a blank look, "Okay, stop talking nonsense, hurry up and call Xiao Qi, and behave well, men like female stars. They tout!"

"Know it!"

Scarlett propped herself up, grabbed the phone next to her and rushed outside.

...

"Hello, is this Mr. Xiao Qi?"

When Xiao Qi received the call, it happened to be the end of the exercise.

Looking at the time, it was only 6 o'clock in the morning. The voice of the girl who spoke was somewhat familiar, and the English accent was from the United States.

"I am Xiao Qi, you are..."

"I'm Scarlett~" the girl on the phone said in a pretty voice, "I didn't bother you, did I?"

"No, hehe, why did you think of calling me?" Xiao Qi smiled, and the classic appearance of the Black Widow appeared in his mind.

"I thank you for giving me the opportunity to be in The Hunger Games."

"Oh? You succeeded?" Xiao Qi said in surprise, "I thought that guy Cameron wouldn't like the person I recommend because he doesn't care about anything!"

"Sorry, I let you down, I lost the election." Scarlett said slightly disappointed.

"Oh, I'm sorry!" Xiao Qi felt a little embarrassed.

"It's nothing, Director Cameron said, it's purely because I'm too short, so he didn't choose me." Scarlett said, "But I have to thank you too! Although we only met once, but I am very happy that you can treat me as a friend~~"

"You're welcome, you've said it all, we're friends!" Xiao Qi laughed.

The two chatted like this, and half an hour had passed by the time the phone was put down.

Scarlett speaks in a very measured way, not only expressing her gratitude, but also talking about some very interesting topics, which will not make Xiao Qi feel impatient.

It has to be said that Xiao Qi has a better impression of her because of this.

Such a smart girl, no wonder she can make a name for herself in Hollywood!
