1852 Peace of mind
Choose Thomas Tull or Renly Hall??
From a moral standpoint, Thomas is at a disadvantage, and choosing Renly is the right decision; but the problem is that in the cruel reality of Vanity Fair, interests are the criterion rather than morality - not to mention, the crew There is no right or wrong in the internal power struggle. In the final analysis, it depends on the level of means to see who can have the last laugh..
If you want to hug Thomas' lap, then even if you know the truth at this time, you should continue to pour dirty water on Renly and hide all the truth. As the CEO of Legendary Pictures, Thomas has the ability to communicate with Hollywood The ability of the heads of the six major film companies to make positive decisions is definitely not trivial. Not to mention whether a big shot like Thomas will remember the contribution of those little shrimps, but it is easy to enjoy the shade under the big tree, as long as Thomas slips in some benefits between his fingers, it will be enough. enough.
If you want to be on Renly's side, then you should cut off the negative rumors at this time. Even if the truth is not clarified, at least they should not continue to spread, otherwise the preconceived stereotype will truly become a fixed image, then it will really This is a predicament that no amount of words can reverse. Considering Renly's reputation in the industry, if they continue to speak ill of Renly, they will probably become a minority that will be squeezed out by the industry in the future. Work The prospects of.
As the same saying goes, there is no right or wrong, only choice. Faced with a situation of vital interest, no one can easily assert that they will be able to make the right choice rationally..
Of course, Nina knew that Renly's attitude towards her was very cordial. Even though he knew something was wrong, Renly did not get angry and pass all the responsibilities to her. Instead, he still maintained a gentlemanly manner and thought about her. This kind of care and courtesy once again proves that Renly's reputation is not without reason..
but……
Thomas is not only the boss of the entire crew, but also her immediate boss-Nina and her entire team were hired by Thomas, and they also signed a cooperation contract for the next five works. In other words, regardless of Nina, Whether Na likes it or not, their entire team will have to collaborate with Thomas on five more works..
things are not that simple.
Faced with Matt's question, Nina didn't speak. She just sat there blankly. There were so many thoughts in her mind that she couldn't distinguish them clearly for a while. She just felt that her head was about to explode. Then This dilemma made her feel a little nauseous, but she wasn't sure whether it was because of low blood sugar or moral backlash..
“I don’t know. I think we’ll see next time. I’m still a little skeptical about inside information and rumors, and I need more evidence to help make decisions.” There is still no way to completely reverse the negative impression formed by preconceptions, Ni Na was still hesitant about Renly after all - or in other words, she chose the ostrich mentality and responded by evading.
Brand image is one thing. After the seeds of doubt are sown, it takes more effort to re-establish trust. At least this is what Nina convinced herself..
Matt didn't speak. He understood Nina's situation and Nina's hesitation. He had no way to condemn Nina and no position to correct her. So, he just sat there in silence, unable to distinguish the turmoil in his mind. When I came up with a clear idea, everyone became quiet..
This silence made Nina sit on pins and needles. Although Matt didn't mean it, she still felt that Matt's silence was making invisible accusations against her. She twisted her body unconsciously and changed her sitting position, only to find that anxious She didn't feel much relief. After hesitating for a moment, she asked curiously, "Tell me, if I go to apologize to Renly now, how will he react?"?”
Matt showed a wry smile to Nina and shrugged helplessly: How do I know??
Nina herself realized it, and then waved her hand, "Pretend I didn't say.”
The two fell silent again, both immersed in their own thoughts, but even they couldn't tell clearly what they were thinking in their minds, and they had no clue..
Nina unconsciously raised the paper cup in her hand and took a sip. The warm hot chocolate flowed down her throat and into her stomach. The sugar flowed down her blood vessels to her limbs, and her whole body became comfortable. She looked down. With the paper cup of chocolate in his hand, his expressionless eyes gradually became deeper..
……
The lunch break is coming to an end, and there are still fifteen minutes left. The staff are enjoying the leisurely last cup of coffee, bathing in the lazy sunshine of early autumn in Hawaii. That kind of contentment and comfort quietly blurs the boundaries of seasons. In addition, because this is the southern hemisphere, people are increasingly unable to tell whether it is spring or autumn..
“Hey Nina, you should try the cold noodles today, such unique food.”
“How's it going, Nina, do you need a refill??”
“Nina, you disappeared for so long, couldn't you be secretly dating??”
The chattering laughter was endless. If it was normal, Nina would have retorted directly without saying a word, but now she was in no mood to argue with them, and all her attention was focused on the upcoming meeting..
Not far away, a white parasol stood like a small mushroom on a green field. The golden sunlight slowly fell down, outlining a halo and demarcating a quiet area. No one dared to go there easily. Before, even the noise had almost disappeared, because the entire crew knew that it was Renly's private resting area..
Yes, after giving up the luxury limousine, Renly only had a parasol in his private rest area. It was slightly away from the busiest rest area of the crew, ensuring that Renly could concentrate on reading the script, unless there was If it's an emergency, the crew won't disturb Renly's "private" space easily..
It’s unimaginable that the top star in the world is being treated like this now. Even if you want to say that he is hypocritical and "pretentious", looking at such a simple picture, you can’t bear to attack him viciously with words..
Nina's pace slowed down a little, her expression was indescribable, and finally she made a tragic expression like a strong man breaking his wrist. She walked forward quickly and entered Renly's resting circle, just like entering the polar bear or the king of the forest. Terrible, I can't help but become solemn and nervous..
In front of him, Renly was concentrating on reading the script. The noise behind him had gradually faded away, leaving only some rustling sounds. The faint chirping of crickets and birds could be heard in his ears. Under the sunlight, There is an inexplicable peace and quietness among the restlessness, which makes my mind settle down..
Involuntarily, Nina also slowed down her pace, and finally stopped five steps away from Renly..
“He is a problem.”
This is the first thought that comes to Nina's mind. The negative emotions caused by the fixed impression are still interfering with all judgments..
Nina knew about the scene that was about to be shot in the afternoon, the reunion between Claire and Owen - because there seemed to be some safety hazards in the predator dinosaur's cage, and the management took a fancy to Owen's ability to communicate with the raptors, so they asked Claire to come Invited Owen to check for safety hazards. This was the first meeting between the two after they broke up..
But Nina didn't know why Renly had to study the script over and over again for such a scene, which was simple and straightforward and seemed to have no difficulty at all. As Matt said, in their eyes, it was a complete waste of time and money. She put on a show, and then her mood became impetuous again..
Immediately, Nina realized that she was making arbitrary judgments and cutting off all possibilities. This was really a very impolite and irrational behavior. After realizing this, Nina became more impetuous and simply did not dare to I believe that she has fallen into such a predicament and is becoming the kind of person she once despised most..
But, what should she do? What else can she do??
The irritability and anxiety lingered, and he glanced at Renly again - he was not aware of the appearance of others at all, and was concentrating on reading the script, as if the lines of the script on that page were the masterpiece of "One Hundred Years of Solitude" , one has to read every word to understand its profound meaning. This kind of caution and investment makes Nina more and more restless: the more dedicated Renly is, the more embarrassing Nina's situation is..
Nina simply turned around and left, standing there over and over again many times, still unable to make up her mind, so she backed down again..
She had just taken a step forward, but Nina's inner torment still didn't let her go. She clenched her fists, turned around suddenly, and shouted in the direction of Renly, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have left my personal life behind." The mood stayed until work, and I apologized for my bad attitude when we last met..”
In fact, Nina didn't know what she was talking about, so she shouted without any end. Not to mention the others, even the person involved was probably confused - after all, it had been many days since Renly joined the crew, and it was so long ago. What happened on the first day was already a bit far away. How could he remember it without a deliberate reminder??
But Nina didn’t know how to start. If she didn’t act impulsively, those words might never be spoken. These were the words she mustered up all the courage to shout. If she was asked to repeat what she said that day, Everything happened, then she would rather choose to continue to be an ostrich.
She came to apologize not because she chose a position, but because she wanted to stabilize her conscience so that she would not be unable to sleep at night, and she could continue to hate Renly with peace of mind. To put it simply, she did it for herself..
Now that she finally said it, her emotions calmed down a little, but Nina immediately discovered that Renly didn't make any movement at all, as if he didn't hear him at all. What was going on? Immediately, that irritability began to stir up again. Sure enough, she still wasn't practicing well enough..
