Once Upon a Time In Hollywood

Chapter 358 The first day after marriage

"When Roland was young, his personality was actually very cheerful."

“When my parents were alive, their house was like a theater, singing operas every day.”

"It wasn't his father who asked him where he went to roll around today and got covered in ashes, or her mother chased him with an ostrich feather duster and asked him to explain why he used a pen to draw pictures on his classmates. In short..." the manager of Kai Rui Hotel In the dining room, David, with his hands on the table, was telling everyone about Roland's childhood, "He was really naughty when he was young."

"Yeah."

Before the words fell, James agreed and said: "At that time, none of our classmates dared to be friends with him."

"For fear of being bullied by him."

"Really?" Father Kate, who was listening, expressed surprise, "But when I communicated with him, I didn't feel anything at all!"

Kate's mother, Sally, also nodded in agreement, "I feel that his calmness doesn't seem to be pretending."

"Because it was an accident."

The random question made Garnett look regretful, "Since his parents left, he seems to have changed."

"The lively and cheerful days of the past have disappeared, replaced by the deepness of the day and night."

"We thought that he couldn't bear the shock of his parents' death, so we wanted him to change his space and change his way of life."

"But I didn't expect that even if he was sent to film, even if it was a comedy, it would not restore his character."

"Alas..." Garnettie sighed, memories flooding back to him.

The sadness that followed made her eyes go blank, and she pursed her lips.

In such a situation, Kate's parents didn't know how to take over, and it also made David a little bald.

Although it was he who started it first, talking about Roland's past, he didn't let his wife pay homage to his friend here!

So, when he found that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the box, David, who wanted to make a rescue, swept his eyes away. When he found that a certain guy at the dining table hadn't spoken, a certain topic came to his mind.

"Yes, although the filming is a comedy, Roland's temperament has not been relieved by the funny performance."

"On the contrary, he maintained the dullness when his parents died, and liked to stay at home quietly by himself."

"However, until one day, he suddenly changed his **** again."

"Although it is still not as lively as before, it is much better than the dullness before."

"Because of him, he will say No to us."

Speaking of this, David suddenly turned his head and looked at his son, "If I remember correctly, James?"

"Huh?" The guy whose name was called raised his head.

"I remember you asked Roland before, how do you want to spend money after becoming famous, right?" David mentioned what happened ten years ago.

"Ah, yes!" James hesitated for half a second before reacting, ""Home Alone"! When it's on fire!"

"I encouraged him to dress himself up."

"As a result, he said that those foreign objects are meaningless."

"But this has nothing to do with his personality change!"

James puzzled.

But while he was wondering, David also guided: "But what about him now?"

"Now?" Looking at his father's face full of hints, James frowned slightly.

When he looked around and found that among the five people around him, only four of them were focusing on him, while the other guy with a ball head was holding a fork and poking the food on the plate one after another, his eyes rose suddenly. He understood what his father meant, so he smiled and said, "Oh, now? I heard from him before that he ordered a plane from Boeing?"

"Is it convenient for future international travel?"

"And bought the land on top of Beverly Hills?"

"Want to build a European-style castle?"

"This is something he would never have done before!"

"Tsk! The power of love is really great, it can even change a person."

"Oh~"

There was knowing laughter at the scene.

Whether it's David the trader, Ganetti the pit digger, Sally the melon eater, or Roger the seeker, they all set their sights on Kate while James explained the situation.

And when Kate, who had been eating quietly since entering the house, or paddling in a daze, noticed this phenomenon, she just raised her head in bewilderment and asked, "What's wrong? Why are you all looking at me all of a sudden? "

"We're talking about you." Kate's father Roger said.

"Talk about me? Talk about what?"

Kate, who was not on the table at all, was even more puzzled.

"Talk about how you changed Roland."

Kate's mother, Sally, was straight-talking and told the content of the previous conversation.

When Kate learned that the Olsen family attributed Roland's change in spending habits to her appearance, she thought it was funny, but when she saw those kind smiles, she waved her hand , said: "Don't do this~"

"I'm fine~"

Not only that, she also half-jokingly said: "It's just feeling, fortunately he insisted on retiring."

"If he works all day, I think I'm going to be in a widowed marriage."

"Hahaha~" The open words made everyone nod their heads happily, but while they were laughing, Kate, who kept her dignity, pursed her lips, her expression was gloomy, because she missed Roland very much.

For the vast majority of newlyweds, the first day after marriage is full of exhaustion and happiness.

Tired because of the waist and back ache tortured by the wedding, happy because the money received can make the number of people cramp;

Tired because a night of exercise makes people physically and mentally exhausted, and happy because the continuous company is going on.

However, for Kate, the first day after marriage was a solo game.

Husband went to work and didn’t see anyone all day.

That aggrieved feeling made her suffer so much that she couldn't tell.

Although she knows that today's work is due to the fun of the past ten months, but the meaning is different!

If it was considered a relationship before, then it is just living a life now.

And on the first day of life, when I opened my eyes, I found that there was nothing beside me;

When eating, I suddenly feel that there is no space;

When going through the day, I feel lonely all over my body...

That kind of atmosphere really has the meaning of re-opening up new vegetable plots after the pigs get the cabbage in their hands.

That's right, in Kate's view, at this moment, the missing Roland is a pig.

Of course, she also understands how important today's meeting is, and those capitals need to be maintained through communication.

It is precisely because of rational clarity and emotional regret that she is very twisted now.

In other words, her brain supported Roland to discuss business, but her heart hoped that the other party would stay.

To put it a bit harshly, she even felt that she was Ruth on the Titanic at the moment, longing for an unfettered life, but at the same time reluctant to give up the security of life, extremely hypocritical.

But what about hypocrisy?

She will refrain from doing some things, but think about it, right?

Especially on the first day after marriage, in this new beginning of life.

When she parted from her family with this regret, she returned to the guest room and still did not see the familiar figure.

After she finished washing and came out of the bathroom, she sighed in the empty room.

Touching the wedding ring on her ring finger, Kate remembered what Roland said to her in Sydney that day—

"Don't be like this, don't be like this, you should think this way, in order to deceive you, that's why I made the sense of ceremony in place! And after I succeed, then you just let me play around!"

The voice echoing in her ears made her laugh at herself, and murmured: "Now, you really look like a liar."

However, just as she was about to take out a book she was carrying to read, and while the sea breeze was blowing while waiting for Roland to return, a clicking sound suddenly appeared, and when she turned her head, the dazzling red made her stunned on the spot.

"For you." Roland stepped forward and handed the rose in his hand to the other party.

"What are you doing?" Although Kate asked in confusion, the corners of Kate's mouth were already raised, "Why did you remember to send me flowers?"

"On the first day after marriage, why is there no sense of ceremony?" Roland smiled and leaned against the desk.

"Aren't you going to discuss business today?" Kate took the flower and sniffed it lightly, her eyes narrowed.

When she found out that these flowers were not cultivated delicately, Ben's gaze, which was still focused on the flowers, moved down, and the mud spots left on her man's trousers made her blow her nose.

"Yes, I'm going to discuss business today." Roland nodded, "I met DreamWorks, Microsoft, Google, Amazon and Apple in the morning, I met Gilead at noon, I met Warner and Disney in the afternoon, and when I finished talking with them, It's almost time for dinner."

"I originally wanted to come back to eat with you, but it's really boring to think about perfunctory you on the first day after marriage."

"So I changed directions and went to the rose garden in the east, and picked ninety-nine flowers for you."

Speaking of this, Roland shrugged, looked at the guy who had already looked up at him with a smile on his face, and continued joking, "No way, who made you so easy to deceive, an idiot?"

Upon hearing this, Kate rolled her eyes, "You are easy to deceive."

"I guess you are moved to cry now?"

"Yes, yes, I want to hug your waist and cry." Kate cooperated.

"What I think in my heart is, I haven't forgotten you after a busy day?"

Although the words were a bit rough, Kate was still very satisfied with today's development, "Well, if you really didn't express it today, I might not care about it, but I will definitely remember it."

"Sigh, no one knows women better than me!"

Kate finally couldn't take it anymore after bragging about his fart, raised his hand and hammered his thigh, then put down the flower, and said the most disgusting words with the happiest expression, "Go, go, go! The whole body smells of smoke and sweat ! Go take a shower!"

When the sound of bang dong sounded, Kate who pushed Roland into the bathroom couldn't help but raised her eyebrows and hummed a little tune, and when she turned her head and saw the flowers casually placed on the desk, she asked with her back against the door frame of the bathroom: "You Have you eaten tonight?"

"No!" A buzzing answer came from inside.

"Don't you know how to eat before going?" Kate's expression collapsed, "Why do I have such a stupid husband like you?"

"Forget it if you starve to death!"

Having said that, after walking back to the living room, she still picked up the receiver and called room service on the landline.

"One serving of garlic prawns, one serving of fine noodles, one serving of fruit plate, yes, that's all it takes."

"Can you deliver it to us within half an hour? Yes, thank you."

Duplicity is the best interpretation of inner joy. There is no way, who makes women so strange?

Many times, what they say and what they think in their hearts are not the same thing at all.

On the surface, I want to buy a bag, but in fact, no matter whether you buy it or not, there are two sets of opinions.

Agree, they may say that her husband is really nice;

But it may also feel that you don't take it seriously and try to use money to pass your feelings.

And if they refuse straight away, they may say that husband, you don’t love me anymore;

But more often, they will pester you to buy it for her.

Even if the final result is to buy a bag, but the way of buying is different, the emotional feedback of women will be different.

After a lot of experience, you will find that what they want is the result, but also the process.

Obtaining the bag is the final result, and the man's earnestly helping them obtain the bag is a process that makes them happy.

Just like shopping, the most important thing is not what to buy, but the possession of people.

What most guys care about is actually the attention of their other half. As long as they can feel the attitude, then...

Even if the result looks small, you can still get the same touch.

Because of this, Roland went back to pick the flowers.

As for how a straight man knows all this?

When your wife searches all over the sky for hair ropes and finally asks you why there is nothing on your wrist, you will understand.

Of course, during the meal, Roland did not forget to share today's harvest with Kate.

This is actually a very understandable thing. If you leave home for a day and don’t say anything, then your wife will definitely have random thoughts.

But if you open your mouth, you have to pay attention to a basic law.

If you take it directly to work with a sentence, she will definitely think that you are very perfunctory, but if you use it as a trash can and pour out conflicts at work to her, then she will think that you treat her as a doormat.

So, mastering a degree has become the most difficult thing in communication.

However, for Roland, this is actually very easy to take care of, because—

Just complain about those rich people like crazy.

Like "Microsoft is too greedy, after finding out that it has taken the initiative to sell Yahoo, it wants to plan its own global distribution rights", or "Google is too stingy, you have to consider 8% of the shares", or " Apple is going to make a new product, and they're going to compete with Sony soon' blah blah blah.

When these slots that are not venting emotions, are not considered suggestions, and do not need to use brains to think, Kate can easily and happily absorb her husband's daily work, especially when these complaints are related to Roland's core interests. At this time, the satisfaction of belonging to Kate will continue to increase.

After all, the business that Roland cares about the most can be shared with her without reservation, then...

Is there anything else to hide?

Of course, this honesty is an illusion.

But even an illusion can be reassuring.

If you immerse yourself for a lifetime, isn’t it like growing old together?

And when Roland and Kate talked about business arrangements, she didn't know much about it, she just listened quietly, but when Roland talked to her about the cooperation between Warner and Disney, she found a common topic and her mind became active up.

"Are you really going to help DC make a movie?"

"certainly!"

"Aren't you an enemy?"

"How can this be counted as an enemy? It is obviously a normal business cooperation."

"Forget it, I don't know you yet?" Kate didn't believe her husband's words at all, "What do you like about DC?"

"Oh, I really can't hide it from you." Roland threw a blueberry into his mouth, and said casually: "Of course he has taken a fancy to DC's female superhero IP, like Wonder Woman, Supergirl, Catwoman, etc. It is a very unique existence!"

“I’ve already thought about it, starting with Batman, bringing out his lover Catwoman, then leading out Superman and his cousin Supergirl, and finally filming the origin of Wonder Woman, and then forming the Justice League.”

"I have already thought about the cast of Catwoman. Let Anne Hathaway play the role, and then find two beautiful actresses to play Supergirl and Wonder Woman. When I think of the filming candidates of the two largest comic companies in North America I make a decision, tsk..."

"At that time, there will definitely be a beautiful little sister posted!"

"Let them audition with makeup, Supergirl in tights, Wonder Woman in a miniskirt, and Catwoman in black, hehehehe... These three guys together, as long as they are alone, they will think this is heaven. !"

'! '

"you dare!"

When Roland closed his eyes and frowned, with a face full of brother pig fantasizing about a better future, he slapped him on the arm. Kate, who was still joking with Roland, pouted and gave Roland a big meal jerk.

"I feel bad if you're not angry?"

"Are you going to make me angry on the first day after marriage?"

"Anne Hathaway?"

"Are you trying to make up a story about your childhood sweetheart again to deceive me?"

The crackling beating made Roland extremely happy. After Kate's attack frequency subsided, he grabbed her and held her in his arms. ?”

"I leave these things to you, and I don't care about anything."

"Hmph!" Kate gave Roland a hygienic eye, then turned around and ignored her.

With such a movement, Roland leaned forward, wrapping her like a curtain, "I cooperated with Warner for their broadcasting network, and the same is true for my cooperation with Disney."

"The previous transaction has ended, and a new transaction must begin."

"We don't have a media platform in our hands, so it is the easiest and most convenient choice to attract more partners. After the deal is concluded, NBC, CNN, and ABC are all on our side."

"The only ones that are not connected are CBS and FOX, but even in a three-on-two, we have an advantage."

The reason why Roland happily outsources to Warner is not because of the media platform!

Although the Internet has brought closer the distance between each other, media groups with interview rights are still powerful weapons.

To put it bluntly, Facebook and ins are all tools, and the real news sources are major news agencies.

They are news-making machines, and the Internet is a platform for disseminating news and receiving feedback. Under such circumstances, whoever underestimates traditional media is really underestimating media weapons.

Even if the ratings of the cable TV network have been declining year after year, and the usage rate of the Internet has soared, it has only turned the TV into a computer, and it is only the input device that has been eliminated, not the output port.

so-

Even though people may think that it sounds outrageous for Marvel’s boss to do DC’s business, Roland will still do it, not for anything else, but because Turner Broadcasting Network can not bring it when it’s trolling people. Own.

As for Disney, it's the same.

As long as ABC can selectively broadcast news, then he doesn't mind letting Warcraft Movies and Television to benefit everyone.

After Roland said all this in a calm tone, Kate, who was already joking with him, turned around with a smile.

When she found out that her husband was looking at her with a smile, she blurted out the secret that belonged to two people.

"Do you think I just did it?"

"No."

"What is in your heart?"

"certainly."

"Why? Shouldn't rich men like the type of wife and mother? For example, William's wife?"

Bill Gates' wife is really a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle. Roland admires it, but doesn't like it. "I'm looking for a wife, not a reproductive tool, okay? If you listen to me like other women who want to curry favor with me, then I Doesn't it matter who you choose?"

"Remember the first day we met? You brought me back to Los Angeles from Mexico."

"Also, he also said that I am not sincere, and I am a bit pretending."

"At that time, I was really surprised."

"Because when people know that Steven and James are my teachers, no one will make me change myself."

“They will only let me be myself, or in other words, more people are willing to cooperate with me so that I can be myself better.”

"So, you are really special."

"You may think my idea is a bit weird, but isn't that what love is like?"

"What's the point of living with a guy who's cut out of a mold?"

"Because they can be changed at any time."

"So, don't think that pursuing peace of mind is an excessive behavior. If you want to say that it is excessive, they know that today is the first day of our marriage, but they drag me away for their own benefit. It is really excessive. .”

Having said that, Roland stopped talking, and Kate, who was lying in his arms, had red eyes.

If when she received the roses, she had already discarded the unhappiness she had been immersed in for a day, then now, she burst into tears like a sand sculpture netizen who saw 'Brother, our family is rich'.

On the first day after marriage, the husband is not at home.

This is not good for anyone.

But others can vent, but she must endure.

That's even more annoying.

But when Roland told her that the upset was correct, he could understand and was willing to apologize.

Everything is not important anymore.

Because she got the best results, better results than a day with her.

In the next second, take the initiative to jump up.

Holding her husband's neck, she kissed her husband's lips fiercely.

After a long time, when she separated from him with short breaths, satisfaction was conveyed in her watery eyes.

"I love you." She lay on Roland's shoulder.

"I love you too." Roland stretched his arms, lifted his wife's body, and let her sit on his lap.

"Hug me, please."

"You can hug it whenever you want."

Note: ① Bill Gates' wife is really a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle. When Bill Gates just started his business, his first love was Ann Winblad, but because she was nine years older than Bill Gates, this love was overthrown by Bill Gates in 1987. Mom smashed it with her own hands. After that, Bill Gates met Melinda French. Although they finally got married, before the marriage, Bill Gates asked Ann Winblad for her opinion. If Ann Winblad Wish he was single, he wouldn't get married. This kind of shame is not acceptable to ordinary people, and at the same time that Ann Winblad agreed, Bill Gates also reached an agreement with Melinda French that he must be given one week every year to accompany Ann Winblad. Brad's agreement (Warren Buffett broke the news when Bill Gates' daughter Jennifer Gates was born, at the Berkshire Hathaway shareholder meeting in 1996, because shareholders Ask him to send blessings to Bill Gates' newborn daughter). If it is outrageous enough to reach an agreement to share a husband after marriage before marriage, then the sexual news worth up to 8 billion makes Bill Gates' wife feel the green prairie. After her lover was exposed, Melinda French still chose to stand on the side of Bill Gates, and it was because of her tolerance that Bill Gates combined the four foundations under his name into Bill and Melinda- Gates Foundation (this foundation is not newly created, it was merged and renamed by Bill Gates' previous four foundations, just to add Melinda's name).
