Hollywood Domination Chapter 466: J.J and J.J
Although from a medical point of view, Jenny has been in a coma for more than 20 days, and she did not fully regain consciousness until yesterday, which can be defined as fully awake from a medical point of view. During the recovery period, I don’t have the energy to care about work matters, so recuperation should be the top priority, but only Jenny knows her current situation. She is indeed extremely curious about what is happening in the outside world, and can even be said to be impatient—— This is mainly because she has spent more than 60 days in the performing arts space, and what is even more frightening is that she has basically been awake during these 60 days, and can only pass the time by watching movie simulation performances Time, even watching a movie for more than two months, even those who love acting will vomit. Jenny is like this now. She is temporarily satisfied with acting theory and acting career, so she is particularly concerned about the changes in the real world, just to re- Establish a connection between yourself and the world, otherwise you will almost feel like you are still dreaming, just like the characters in "Inception", you can't tell whether it is reality or a dream.
—Perhaps because of this, although she suffered a lot of injuries in the kidnapping incident, if you want to say how much psychological trauma she has, at least she can’t see it now. As soon as she rolled down the stairs, she couldn't remember what happened afterwards. When she woke up again, she was in an absolutely safe performing arts space, and she vaguely guessed that the reason why she was here was because of trauma to her brain. It is being repaired, and when the brain recovers to the point where it can carry consciousness, she will be able to return to reality—since she doesn't feel pain and doesn't worry about death, she really doesn't feel any negative emotions other than the irritability of waiting , but it was not until the last ten days that she began to return to reality from time to time, but she couldn't stay for long, and she returned to the performing arts space in a coma, which was quite annoying. That's why, although she returned to her body yesterday, she didn't know when she would 'die' back, until she lasted all night, and now it has been 24 hours, before she can be sure that she has really woken up. Will no longer be kicked offline and forced to run away.
Of course, it is also because every time I wake up, I can feel that my body has improved. After waking up this time, except for fatigue and dizziness, there are basically no adverse symptoms. It would be dangerous', and she is not qualified to eat solid food at all——she knew that her recovery process was somewhat abnormal, from the speed at which the congestion was absorbed, the bleeding spots disappeared, and she was still in a coma for more than 20 days. No signs of muscle atrophy, etc., have aroused the strong interest of the doctors - under Cesare's intervention, she was not treated as an experimental animal for various tests, and top doctors from all over the United States finally had to accept it. The explanation of 'Jennifer's physical fitness is superb', but Cesare may know it in his own mind, otherwise, no matter how strongly she asks, it will be difficult to explain why he secretly sneaked in a cheeseburger for her to eat.
However, for now, although she has initially agreed to Judy's decision, or has read her report hastily, Jenny still feels that she has not really established a connection with this world. There is a feeling of dreaming. From waking up to now, I have been pushed to one new clinic after another to do all kinds of scans and tests-it is really difficult for people to establish a sense of reality. , even the food has become liquid food, or it is a cheeseburger that tastes completely unfamiliar, if it is not so familiar tonight's Golden Globe Awards - the pretentious atmosphere, those familiar faces - and the surrounding Cesare is still typing on the keyboard forever, and Jenny will never have the feeling that she is waking up. She really needs some information urgently to call out the familiar thinking mode in her mind.
"First of all, the first news you need to know is that...ge's investment has gone bad." Cesare said, his tone could not hear the joy or anger. "Of course, under such circumstances, Ge's choice is also understandable."
Venture investment mainly depends on people. When the life and death of the core characters are uncertain, it is reasonable to temporarily postpone the decision-making. Jenny already has a feeling of soaking back into reality. She frowned, "Yes Is it completely canceled? Isn't it suspended?"
"GE is not very satisfied with our crisis handling capabilities." Cesare said, still in a calm tone, "This is an important reason why they decided to give up investment, or return to the consideration link, your surprise It's just one aspect of it, and of course concerns about your long-term health are also part of it."
Without waiting for Jenny to ask, he took the initiative to explain, "After the accident broke out, we did not contact GE in time to explain the reason, and GE couldn't find anyone to confirm the matter. They thought it exposed the company's internal management chaos and lack of emergency response. The weakness of the plan."
"But it's not fair to Dameng. First of all, only you and I are working on this matter, which is top secret. Without the two of us, no one knows the overall situation and has contact information. Secondly, , Zade’s accident involved you as well—it’s not that you weren’t held hostage—” Jenny said defensively, she sat up straight unconsciously, and her dizziness improved a lot. "—Forget it, these considerations are actually just an excuse to step down, ge just doesn't want to say the words 'I might not wake up'—it can be regarded as a kind of self-restraint."
Under Cesare's warning stare, she lay back and waved her hand, "I'll talk about this matter after I get out of the hospital—it's definitely possible."
To her surprise, Cesare was not so enthusiastic about this matter, at least a little colder than Jenny imagined, he just nodded briefly in reply, and then moved on to the next topic, "As for the company, it was running pretty well. It was chaotic for a while, but then quickly found its rhythm again. Of course, the original work plan must have been affected, but the advantage is that it is not the release promotion period of the new film, so there is no What's the delay?"
"Normal." Jenny said lazily, "At first I didn't get involved in the actual operation, it's the same with me or without me, haha..."
Cesare rolled his eyes at her, and her laughter faded, "Is there no delay in the due account? Strange, I thought Paramount—you know, since I may hang up at any time— —”
"It's only been more than 20 days since I started the business, and the next billing cycle has not yet come." Cesare said, "But I know what you want to ask—is there anyone who takes advantage of this to come Is it bad for the company? As far as I know, no, on the contrary, maybe we still owe the Sixth University a great favor.”
Perhaps because she is in good spirits, Cesare spoke more carefully, basically explaining everything that happened during this period to her, "...So, if you say that Judy saved It's okay to be out of the world, we found some useful clues in the computer, and logged into the mail server used by Edward - he stored a lot of photos of Shef in it, without her, the second email might have caused disaster It is indeed difficult to predict where the situation will go in the future.”
Jennie listened to him quietly, this time she didn't make any comments, she simply nodded, and Cesare carefully observed her expression - but this made her laugh. "what?"
"I want to know your opinion." Cesare said, he showed a rare hesitation, "otherwise my coping strategy is serious dereliction of duty——"
"What kind of result do you think I want?" Jenny said, the corners of her mouth curled up uncontrollably, "Tell me?"
Cesare did not speak, but pursed his lips, and Jenny's smile deepened, and she said softly, "Yes, this matter, I can only hope that it is inconvenient to speak out, or even refuse to cooperate, otherwise , I am too unprofessional..."
Although cryptic, these words were enough for Cesare to understand her wishes. His eyebrows stretched a little, but the haze between his brows still hadn't completely dissipated. He shook his head wordlessly and remained silent for a while. He said, "But you have paid enough—too much."
"But I also get the best share of the proceeds." Jenny said in a relieved tone, "Look—the game is fair after all."
There was a helpless smile on the corner of Cesare's lips, he shook his head again, stretched out his hand and pressed it on the back of Jenny's hand, and Jenny turned her palm over to join him - her fingertips felt slightly numb It seems that after many days of deep sleep, the sense of touch has not fully recovered, and I can only faintly feel Cesare’s body temperature. Fragmentary memories flashed through my mind, and it was difficult to be placed in the timeline: pain and cold, chaotic and vague perspective In his comforting expression——
She clenched her palms tightly, and gave Cesare a absent-minded smile, suddenly showing a little apology, in fact, this should have been the first question she asked—"Are you okay?"
"...It's passable." Cesare said, he looked down at the hands they held together, "Since you're awake now, it's even better."
"Really?" Jenny said, playfully defiant, "then why don't you look up at me?"
Cesare's shoulders visibly stiffened, and he replied after a while, "Maybe it's because I'm afraid of getting too close, I can't help but take your cheeseburger away—you've already eaten it It’s been half a half, and I don’t think it’s a good idea to eat any more.”
Jenny couldn't help laughing, but she only laughed for a while, because such a big movement still made her feel dizzy, and she squeezed Cesare's palm again, "Seriously, How are you?"
"...I'm really fine," said Cesare, leaning back and looking up at Jenny, "it's just... this thing does touch you a lot, doesn't it? It makes you feel ignorant and vulnerable, how disrespectful and arrogant you are..."
His head dropped briefly again, but—Cesare almost forced himself, he quickly raised his face again, maintaining eye contact, and the emotion on his face— It was almost so strange to Jenny—it took her a little while to be sure that the face of Cesare, who never showed weakness and always took the high ground, was indeed full of guilt. "I'm just sorry that you are the one paying for my mistakes."
"But let's not repeat the 'this is a decision between two people' conversation." Jenny said, she grinned at Cesare, trying to adjust the atmosphere, although maybe this may not be effective - Cesare Must have known her point of view, but he probably wouldn't forgive himself for that, "That's been said too much with Zade, hasn't it?"
Cesare also showed a smile, and he cooperatively cleaned up the guilt on his face, and the room fell into a comfortable silence again. Until Jenny's soft laughter broke the silence—that's how she watched Cesare's expression change, and then laughed unconsciously.
"What?" Cesare asked, raising his eyebrows at her, his tone deliberately displeased.
"I'm just thinking, my God, how much you've changed in the past ten years—" Jenny said, "Think about it, if it was the Cesare I just met, what would he say in this situation ?'This is an unavoidable natural and man-made disaster. I deeply sympathize with your misfortune, but asking me to take responsibility for this may be too difficult—'"
She imitated Cesare's accent so well that even he was amused, and Jeanne laughed for a long time before stopping.
"That's what it's all about, isn't it?" she said, "We've been through so much in these ten years, Cesare, we've changed so much, always growing, no one can predict the future Ten years ago we would have believed that one day I would not object to telling the truth? Would we have thought that you would prepare a team of lawyers for this?—we are already strong enough to not be ruined even if the truth is exposed?—this in ten years It was completely a fantasy a year ago, maybe ten years later, our thinking will have a radical change—don’t think it’s impossible.”
"I don't have such an idea." Cesare said, his dark blue eyes looked at Jeanne, like a shallow sea under the light.
"—and the only thing we know is that what won't change in the past ten years and the next ten years," Jenny whispered, "is that there is no 'whose responsibility', without you or me, any We face everything together, and we will face everything together.”
Cesare's eyes curled up, and the invisible pressure—the guilt that was only vaguely present in the aura finally dissipated slowly.
"Anything," he said, raising his free hand as if to stroke her hair—but in mid-air he changed his mind and merely adjusted the thin blanket for her. "—want to know who visited you while you were comatose? Mary seems to have made a form—oh, yes, Josh Salvi and Heath Leo Chris, and of course Lillian would like Talking to you - if you're in good spirits, they'll probably all come visit you in the next few days."
"Where's Robert?" Jenny asked, "Didn't he call?"
"And Robert." Cesare said, "Of course he also cares about you—but you know, if you want to mention him, there must be a lot of names behind."
Of course Jenny knows that they have all been here. In fact, Lilian only returned to Los Angeles when she began to wake up intermittently and the signs of improvement became more and more obvious. After all, she is already a mother, and she always has her own affairs You have to take care, as for the rest of the friends, although they are very concerned, but the number of people during the visiting hours is strictly limited, and the communication and transportation are very developed, it doesn’t make much sense to stay in San Francisco and wait for the news, so most of them are Return to your normal life after the visit. Only Mary and Cesare are still in San Francisco, including Jim, who has returned to Los Angeles to take charge of the company.
"Tomorrow." She said, taking a deep breath, "That's all for tonight—will you stay with me?"
"Of course." Cesare said without hesitation, "It's still the same as last night, I slept outside."
"That's good." Jenny said, she felt sleepy, so she pushed the small table aside, Cesare naturally went to collect the sundries on it, he poured another glass of water for Jenny, got up and went out Doing some chores, Jenny took this opportunity and picked up the remote control again.
"j.j—" Cesare poked his head out of the bathroom with a hint of annoyance.
"Just watch it for a while," Jenny begged, "you watch TV with me for a while before going to work."
Although he was somewhat reluctant, Cesare still gave in. He returned to his seat and watched the boring evening news with Jenny——The Golden Globes are over, and now it is a brief Of course, the biggest headline must be Jenny's sobriety. The TV station selected the combination of scenes of her winning the Golden Globes over the years, which made more than a dozen Jenny with different shapes and bright smiles "gather together", creating a splendid scene. spectacular.
"I think there must be many fans cheering for this good news tonight, it can even be said to be a worldwide carnival." The female anchor said with a smile, "In Akihabara, Tokyo, Japan, fans spontaneously Formed a queue, spelled out Jennifer's initials, and congratulated her on her sobriety. Half an hour ago in Los Angeles, unknown people set off fireworks next to Jennifer's head spray painting. This topic on Twitter quickly became the most popular topic of the day. The popular label, it seems that the whole world is happy for Jennifer Jefferson's sobriety—"
"Interesting." Jenny suddenly laughed, and softly repeated the anchor's words, "It seems that the whole world is happy for Jennifer Jefferson's sober..."
Cesare cast a questioning look, and Jenny shook her head slightly. She continued to stare at the screen, looking at the countless moments when Jennifer accepted the trophy with a smile—
She said leisurely, "I was just thinking, when the whole world is happy for Jennifer Jefferson, how many people are happy for my sobriety and Jenny Jefferson ..."
