Hollywood Domination Chapter 61: Jenny’s ‘broken love’
"Really?" Josh's tone was a little needlessly enthusiastic, "I thought Jenny and Jennifer were the same thing."
In fact, it is not so easy to chat in the wind and waves. The voice should be louder, and when the waves come, the salty and bitter seawater will choke into the mouth, which is not pleasant. But both Jenny and Josh worked hard to maintain the topic. Jenny knew that she was just panicking. Now that the sea was already dark, if she hadn't been talking all the time, it would be hard for her to feel that she was accompanied by someone. This kind of feeling that there is only one person in the turbulent world can easily drive people who are not so strong in psychological endurance into panic attacks.
Josh may feel the same way, so he is very interested in the whole agent changing his name without authorization.
"This is normal." He yelled in Jenny's ear, "Good agents are very busy, they don't have that much time for relationship maintenance."
Actually, it was about the contract with Josh. Jenny also asked Cesare afterwards why she didn't tell her first. Cesare's answer was 'busy', too busy to forget, or too busy to take care of. Anyway, in Jenny's understanding, "No, it's not that we don't have time, it's that we are not worth their time to maintain the relationship."
"Okay." Josh shouted back, "You're right, when I become Johnny Depp, Anna's attitude towards me will definitely be much better."
Anna is his agent.
Although the current situation is so tense, Jenny still can't help laughing, empathy or not, anyway, now she finds that Josh is quite interesting.
"I think you are more handsome than him!" She shouted to encourage Josh.
"Thank you!" Josh yelled back. "You are beautiful too!"
Coincidentally, when he yelled the last sentence, the rain slowly stopped, and the wind and waves calmed down dramatically-not to say that there are no waves now, but compared with the previous heavy wind and heavy rain, today's waves can only be regarded as The aftermath has not leveled the grade. The sound of waves lapping, wind, and rain all disappeared within a second. This also made Josh's words spread far and wide in the open sea.
A dark cloud moved away, revealing half of the moon's face. Under the bright moonlight, Jenny and Josh looked at each other. Although only vague outlines could be seen, this did not prevent them from bursting into laughter at the same time. The captain not far away also laughed.
"Boy, even the wind and waves can't stop you from being courteous." The native captain smiled kindly in English with a strong accent.
Jenny wanted to keep joking, but after the storm calmed down, she felt even more dizzy and nauseous. It seemed difficult for her to adapt to the shaking. She covered her mouth and tried to warn Josh to back away , but Josh immediately leaned over with concern.
"Hey, are you okay?" he asked, craned his neck to get a good look at Jenny's face.
An urge to vomit hit, Jenny could only try her best to tilt her head, and tried to wave her hands, but the effect was limited. Before Josh could turn his head, with a wow, she... just... Literally, Spit out Josh's face.
Even if he wanted to apologize, he couldn't speak. Fortunately, Josh didn't care. He casually picked up a handful of sea water to wash his face, then switched positions to support Jenny, making her vomit more comfortably, "Wow Oh, there is a big meal for the fish here tonight."
Jenny wanted to laugh, but felt sick even more. The captain kept laughing at the other end, "Is this a response to you? Josh."
When Jenny got better, the captain began to instruct, "Now let's move closer together and move towards the reef."
Before, the three of them were divided into two groups because the wind and waves were too big, and although the distance was not far, they couldn't get close together. The weather is calm now, and the trio will be together soon. The captain took off the lifejacket and put it on for Josh. He dived under the moonlight, strengthened the rope, and put on the lifebuoy when he came back, so that his actions would be more maneuverable. Josh And Jenny can also pull the life buoy and chat around the captain.
"I'm sorry..." After finding a gap, Jenny tried to apologize.
"It's nothing at all, to be honest, you don't have to take it to heart." Josh said very intimately, without any reluctance at all, "Hey, are you tired? Do you want to take a rest by leaning on the lifebuoy?"
After a day of work and the tossing just now, Jenny is indeed very tired. She is not willing to open her eyes now. Keeping it up, at this moment, Josh's concern seemed to be in place, and Jenny followed his arrangement, put her head on the lifebuoy, and tried to rest.
"I warned your producers before the filming started. At this time of year, the Caribbean Sea is very windy and turbulent." The captain communicated more smoothly with Josh. his love boat. Jenny listened to Josh patiently talking to him, soaking in the warm sea water after the storm, and finally completely freed herself from fear. Her seasickness gradually eased, and she was moving towards sleepiness. She really wanted to take a nap.
However, when the sound of the speedboat came from a distance, and the captain began to whistle desperately, she suddenly became excited again: After confirming absolute safety, the risk just now seemed to be much smaller, and the fear also turned into an impulse to share, Now she especially wants to tell Lilian about her legendary escape experience, and by the way, praise Josh and the captain for their reliable performance.

Due to the sudden heavy wind and rain, hundreds of film crews were still trapped on the island. After Jenny and others were rescued ashore, the local police were still organizing a fleet to pick them up. All three of them were sent directly to the hospital . After Jenny told the story of falling into the sea, she was diagnosed as slightly dehydrated, and a sling bottle was inserted, and Mary rushed over within 20 minutes after she was admitted to the hospital.
"Scares me to death, really, I'm about to have a heart attack - literally, you know how broken they are when they come ashore? I heard one guy say they called straight to Brooksea Mr. Mo. If you and Josh get lost in the storm—oh my God!” Mary kept talking excitedly, and rushed out before Jenny could reply, “I’m going to call Mr. Not on the plane."
Mobile phones are not allowed in the hospital, and of course there is no signal. Jenny looked at the clock and estimated that they lost contact for about an hour, and the time to return to shore would not exceed two and a half hours. Mary received the news at least half an hour after the incident, which means that Cesare probably decided to come here as soon as he received the news.
Well, Jenny has to admit that she was a little moved. Although she is still a small coffee who "doesn't need to spend time maintaining relationships", Cesare has always been very righteous to her. of.
Because of his good health, the captain was discharged from the hospital after the basic examination. Now Josh in the next bed is also having a similar conversation. Jenny listened for a while, then raised the curtain separating the two, "Hey, Anna is coming too on the way?"
"They almost went crazy with fright." Josh said, "Anna is already on the plane, you know, everyone still remembers what happened to Aaliyah last year." (see note)
"Oh, this can't be compared with her matter, at least our captain didn't take drugs." Jenny said, and Josh let out a slight laugh.
The strange thing is that he doesn't seem to be interested in talking, and Jenny doesn't need to be too smart to see his change—in the sea, in a critical situation, Josh is as friendly, enthusiastic, and friendly as when he first met. Reliable, and once back in civilization... he was suddenly distant and closed off from her.
Jenny narrowed her eyes slightly, and nodded calmly.
"OK." She said, "Then you rest well—I just want to apologize to you, you know, about—"
She made random gestures on her face, and Josh laughed, "It's okay, I really don't mind, please don't worry."
The atmosphere seemed to be a little loose, but Josh still didn't intend to continue the conversation. After expressing his meaning, he lowered his head and stopped making eye contact with Jenny.
Jenny thought: It doesn't look like Josh is suffering from misogyny, but just hates her.
There was a little noise from the door of the ward, and Jenny heard intermittently, "Wait a while, and keep the door shut so no one can come in". Jenny sat up and saw Mary's figure flashing at the door, and then Gore and executive producer Andy walked in one after another.
"Thank God you're all right." Andy said very sincerely, turning around and closing the curtains, forming a private space around the two hospital beds, "Listen, we'll talk about condolences later, now Gore and I Just to be sure, the police will come and ask you how you're doing, I hope -- this isn't an official conversation, Josh, Jenny, but I'm asking you guys in a personal capacity, no, to say something that will get the studio in trouble. "
"For example?" Josh asked.
"For example, before you went to the island to shoot, you heard that this season was dangerous, or you got into the speedboat without relevant safety training, and you didn't wear life jackets as required when you took the boat at night. Ask your leading questions," Andy said bluntly, "If you feel bad for the studio, say no, boys, you know how many red tape there are when it comes to safe filming, if we follow the rules, The filming will not be finished by this time next year. Once the crew is involved in lawsuits, the most frightening thing is to undergo a review of safety measures. Once this step is reached, the entire crew must stop working, and the resumption of work will be far away. The promotion and production of the entire film will be affected. , do you hope so?"
Josh and Jenny both shook their heads—they really couldn't hope so.
"OK, so now, unofficially, between you and me personally, have we reached an agreement? In front of the union and the police, do you know how to speak?" Andy turned to Jenny, "Jenny, we reached an agreement Is it consistent?"
Gore kept silent, but looked at Jenny very closely. ——He is the director, and Andy may think that many decisions are not in compliance with the regulations, but Andy backed down after he insisted, so if there is really a review, Gore is also responsible.
Jenny also knows this, and of course she sees nothing wrong with it. What happened tonight is an unfortunate accident. If it affects the filming of the crew, then she is not happy to see this happen .
But before she spoke, she suddenly felt Josh's gaze—he winked at her behind Andy and Gore, and shook his head slightly.
"I..." The words were on the verge of her mouth, but Jenny swallowed them again. She asked Jenny's attitude "hesitantly", "What's your opinion, Josh?"
"I'm very tired now." Josh shook his head, "Anna is already on the way, you can talk to Anna, I want to rest."
Jenny immediately understood Josh's intentions, "Me too, to be honest, Andy, I can't understand what you mean at all now—"
She yawned a lot, "I'm so sleepy, even if the police come, it will be tomorrow. You can talk to Cesare and tell me the result tomorrow."
Andy's face darkened, but Gore didn't seem to intend to continue to pressure them, but he stood up and hurriedly said, "Dude, as I said earlier, it's useless to go directly to them— —”
While arguing like this, they walked outside the door of the ward.
After the footsteps went away, Josh regained his energy. He looked at the door and said to Jenny, "This is the first lesson Anna taught me. Never, never promise when your agent is not present." Anything."
Jenny said sincerely, "Thank you, this is a valuable suggestion, I think I just almost gave away a valuable favor like this."
"Haha, you're right, even favors should be sold at a good price, right?" Josh winked at Jenny. "I guess Ana will join forces with Cesare to ask for a high price."
Jenny has already experienced her awkwardness in the industry. Although according to her oriental thinking, it seems unreasonable to blackmail the film studio for profit in this matter, and it seems to offend Gore or Jerry, but since Josh It seems that there is no such worry. Gore didn't get angry just now, and only Andy looked gloomy. Then she didn't intend to worry about whether Cesare might lose the big because of small things.
"I guess it must be." She said, making a joke by smearing Cesare without any scruples, "Cesare will not let the oil in the stone go, their managers are like this."
Josh chuckled, "Otherwise he wouldn't be a good manager."
The social culture here in the west is more straightforward, and Jenny doesn't intend to hold back her questions for too long. Seeing that the atmosphere is good now, she simply asks, "Hey, Josh, I've always had a question Ask you."
"Huh?" Josh raised an eyebrow.
I have to say that being good looks is an advantage. Under the fluorescent lights in the ward, Josh's face looked a little sharp and cold, and it was visually pleasing to the eye. The words that Jenny asked directly softened a bit. She originally wanted to ask, 'Do you hate women', but what she asked was, "Are you trying to tear up the contract?"
"You mean..." Josh's surprise was also a little artificial.
"You know, sooner or later we have to—" Jenny gestured, "but you make me feel like we can't even have a normal friendly conversation, which I think is a detriment to our cooperation At first, what do you think, Josh? At first I thought you just hated me, but your performance tonight made me feel that you don’t actually hate me, but just avoid me out of certain concerns... you know , then of course all I can think of is..."
Generally speaking, she would not be too smart in a general social environment, because it would make men feel a lot of pressure—for example, Josh is obviously under a certain amount of pressure now, see Seeing his embarrassing expression, Jenny even felt a little soft-hearted, but she still pushed forward, "Is it because you... um... don't take the usual path? Do you think you can't accept such a disguise, or is it because—"
"No, no." Josh seemed to make up his mind, he licked his lips, "No, I'm straight, you can trust me on that. I just—"
He looked at Jenny a few times, "Can I trust you?"
Jenny nodded without thinking, "Of course, you just saved my life."
"Well," Josh whispered, "You see, Anna and I didn't tell you the whole truth that day, you know, about whether I have a girlfriend or not."
"So you had a girlfriend back then?" Jenny already had an idea in her mind, "but now—"
"Of course, according to the contract, we should enter the cleaning period after June, but I... um... I hit the edge, you know," Josh touched his nose, "Of course, in fact , I haven’t dated for a long time, but spiritually, I still belong.”
There was a slight movement at the door, and Mary and another person approached the hospital bed while talking. Jenny and Josh both shut up, and Jenny also lay back on the hospital bed: the contract has very clear regulations on confidentiality, and Jenny is now Nor did she trust Mary enough to talk about it in her presence.
"Mr. Vijay is already at the airport," Mary began to explain, "he decided to come in person, and Judy also called..."
Jenny was only listening with half of her mind, and the other half of her mind was spent observing Josh's interaction without any trace.
Speaking of which, she should have realized something was wrong. In fact, she also knew this woman, but she didn't want to go there at all-she was Claudia, the makeup artist of the crew, who was in charge of her and Josh's makeup. Jenny even knew that she and Josh were very familiar, but... It's just that she really didn't look like the kind of person who could fall in love with Josh, she looked too mediocre.
Of course, now that Josh reveals the clues, Jenny can see many small actions. The eye contact between Claudia and Josh, and the natural intimacy between the two when they talk...
"Damn." Jenny cursed softly, then looked away and continued to listen to Mary's report.
——The saddest tragic fact in the world: good men generally have their own masters.
The author has something to say:
Notes: 1 Alia is the lead actor of "The Vampire Queen", a star of both music and film in the late 1990s. She died in a small plane crash in August 2001. She crashed on the way back to the airport from a small island after filming the MV. The incident caused an uproar at the time. Because the pilot is not only unlicensed, but also addicted to alcohol and drugs.
2 The shipwreck is actually not a small accident. It is normal for Jenny to be timid. You can think about it in a dark sea with no other ships and the land is far away. That kind of scene is very scary.

Thank you for your corrections. I made a typo yesterday with a limp hand. Khan, I reversed reason and emotion and arrogance and prejudice. But last night's update is still being reviewed, I will change it when I have time after review
Criminal Minds I remember three or four times when the mobile phone lost signal and lost contact at critical moments. The most impressive was the time when Reid was kidnapped.
An update will be added in one hour
