Chapter 345: Don’t murder your husband if you can
"Why didn't Sophia come to dinner?"
In the villa restaurant, Liu Xiaoli put down the fruit plate and looked at the people at the table. Monica, Jennifer, Sandra Bullock, Catherine Zeta-Jones were all there, but Sofia was missing.
"She's still taking a nap. We'll eat later. No need to wait for her."
Link put down the newspaper and started eating.
"It's already two o'clock and she's still taking a nap? She takes so much nap during the day, what will she do at night? I'll go call her."
"Lina, no need to call me, I'm full already, there's no need to eat lunch."
Monica held Liu Xiaoli and glanced at Link with a smile.
Link pretended not to notice and buried his head in eating.
"Is she full? Did she just have a snack?"
Liu Xiaoli hasn't reacted yet.
"Yes, she ate a lot and almost died. When I went to call her, she was rubbing her belly and groaning, and she wanted me to help her apply medicine."
Monica said with her red lips pouted.
Jennifer, Renee and Katherine also giggled.
Liu Xiaoli looked at the expressions of several people, gradually came to her senses, and glared at someone, "It's the middle of the day, and you don't know how to be quiet."
Link buried his head in his food and ignored it.
"Lina, this is not Link's fault. Someone was greedy and wanted to steal some food. Link couldn't stand the harassment, so he would definitely agree."
Jennifer Connelly laughed.
Liu Xiaoli shook her head and suggested deducting Sophia's qualification to share the main building bedroom resources twice this month.
Monica, Jennifer, Sandra and others raised their hands to show their agreement.
The penalty was 'passed unanimously'.
Link spoke up to plead for Sophia, but was refuted by all the women, saying that he was not a member of the family committee and had no say in the matter.
Link was helpless. As the head of the family, he had no say in such matters. This rule was unreasonable.
While eating, everyone talked about the latest gossip in the entertainment industry.
There has been a lot of gossip in the entertainment industry recently, including the prostitution incidents involving a BBC anchor and a British supermodel. The 38-year-old famous Hollywood pimp Heidi Fleiss was arrested and imprisoned. In an interview with the media, the pimp revealed that the famous movie star Charlie Sheen was a regular customer.
In addition, the documentary "Roswell Alien Autopsy" released by London entrepreneur Ray Santilli at the end of August was a big hit, and North America once again set off a craze for "pseudo-documentary" films.
There is also the upcoming divorce case between supermodel Cindy Crawford and Richard Gere.
With the help of famous divorce lawyer Ms. Laura Wasser, Cindy Crawford is expected to keep her pre-marital property.
However, compared to these news, the most exciting news recently is the final trial of the "Simpson murder case".
After a year of investigation and trial, the case came to its final trial yesterday.
After the trial debate, the jury, which was mostly composed of African-American women, found Simpson not guilty and released him on the spot.
Due to the high level of attention paid to this case, 150 million people watched the live broadcast of the trial on television that day, and the media called it the "trial of the century."
Although Simpson was found not guilty, 70% of respondents in a media survey believed that Simpson was the murderer.
The reason he escaped jail was because he was rich and he was a black superstar.
The government was lenient in their sentencing because they feared a repeat of the 1992 Los Angeles riots.
When the media reported on the case, "Seven Deadly Sins" was mentioned again.
When this movie was released last year, it was miraculously involved in this case, making the case and the movie even more popular.
During the trial of the "Simpson murder case" this year, Simpson's defense lawyers played an important role in the trial of the case. They helped the murderer Simpson get away with it through various improper means.
In public opinion, several defense lawyers are considered to be the "greedy" lawyers in "Seven Deadly Sins", who spend their entire lives doing everything they can to make dirty money by helping murderers and rapists evade legal sanctions.
Affected by the case, sales of the "Seven Deadly Sins" videotapes also saw a significant increase.
Link is once again considered the biggest beneficiary of this case.
"Link, another media outlet said that Guess What Pictures is the biggest beneficiary in this case. Should we make a statement?"
Liu Xiaoli asked.
"No need for that. This case did help our movie earn a lot of money at the box office. We benefited from it, so it's okay for others to talk about it."
Link said as he ate.
"Seven is a classic crime movie that I like very much. I think the movie would be a big hit even without this case."
Catherine Zeta-Jones smiled as she held her fork.
"Catherine, don't seduce him, or you'll get your points deducted."
Renée Zellweger joked.
"I'm just having a normal chat, I'm not trying to seduce Link, okay?"
Catherine rolled her eyes at her.
"Catherine has beautiful eyes. When she stares at people, it's like she's giving off electric sparks."
Jennifer Connelly laughed.
"Yeah?"
Katherine stared at Link for a few seconds, "Dear, do you feel anything?"
"Yes, if I were a robot, my battery would have been fully charged by you by now."
"Haha, you're Iron Man, almost like a robot."
After dinner, Link went to the bedroom to check on Sophia, and found that Sophia was asleep with rosy cheeks and a smile on her lips, looking pretty good.
After returning to the study, Link continued to work on the new movie script and company work.
While writing the script, Daniel DeVito called. Director Michael Bay rejected the script handed to him by Guess What Pictures, saying that he had a new job and had no time to take on other films. Daniel DeVito asked him if he wanted to re-select other directors to direct.
Link thought about it and there was no other suitable candidate except Explosive Bay, so he told DeVito not to do it for the time being. He could also direct this kind of movie, but the schedule would be a little tight.
Daniel agreed and told him that the company had started shooting two new films, completed four films, and completed post-production of three films recently, and if he had time he could come and take a look.
Link said yes.
In the first half of the year, Guess the Movie Pictures launched 11 film projects, including "China Box", "Dangerous Game", "A Man Walking", "Grey's Anatomy", "Casino", "Final Destination 2", "Net", "Scream", and "The Mask of Zorro", "The Fifth Element" and "Jerry Maguire" in cooperation with Columbia Pictures.
In addition to "Scream", "The Fifth Element" and "Jerry Maguire", the other eight films have been completed or in post-production.
Including "Hachiko: A Dog's Story" which was not completed last year and "The English Patient" which is currently in preparation, Guess What Pictures will produce a total of 13 films this year, one more than last year.
In addition, after acquiring Pixar Animation, with the support of Link, Pixar Studios restarted the animated film "Toy Story" which was suspended due to lack of funds. It is expected to be completed within the year and released next year.
Producing 14 films a year is probably the current limit of the film industry. Any more will exceed the operating limits of the company's various departments.
However, with these fourteen films, in the film market next year, Guess Pictures' films will be able to maintain strong competitiveness compared with the seven major film studios.
Ding-ling-ling!!
As soon as Daniel put down the phone, the phone on the table rang, and the caller ID showed Nicole Kidman's number.
"Link, I want someone to take out Tom Cruise."
Nicole Kidman said irritably on the phone.
"What's wrong? What happened?"
"I asked him for a divorce but he avoided me and said he was busy with work. He refused to talk to me about this. If he keeps dragging it out like this, we won't be able to get a divorce in a few years. I'm so angry that I want to find someone to kill him."
Nicole Kidman said.
"Don't be anxious, take your time. If Tom Cruise doesn't accept it, you can hire a lawyer to file for divorce. It doesn't have to be too extreme."
"I see. I'm also looking for a lawyer, but the litigation process is very slow. It will take me until next year at the latest to completely get rid of Tom Cruise. But I miss you, very much. I know you don't want to be the third party. We can not have sex for now, but just hug each other and talk, okay?"
Nicole Kidman's voice became gentle and delicate, with a hint of temptation.
"I'm attending the preview of Final Destination 2 at the company tomorrow. You can come and watch."
"Okay, I'll definitely come."
Nicole Kidman excitedly exclaimed.
