Chapter 196 Tom Cruise’s Troubles


In Malibu, in a large villa by the sea, a large number of female and male models have been sent in since the afternoon.

At night, the lights are turned on and guests arrive one after another.

There were dozens more male and female models on the swimming pool and private beach.

"Man, you can choose, it doesn't matter if you want to take them all away!"

On the terrace on the top floor of the villa, Brian said to Hawke boldly and generously: "Everyone of the models and starlets coming this time must provide the latest physical examination report. I guarantee that they have no infectious diseases."

Hawke stood behind the glass guardrail, looking at the beauties in swimsuits on the beach in front, and said: "I remember that you planned to pursue a Hollywood actress to prove your innocence."

Brian spread his hands: "It's useless, isn't it?"

Hawke glanced at him and felt that this was not the case, and asked: "You won't be rejected, right?"

Brian told the truth: "At that time, among the candidates we drafted, only Jennifer Aniston and Cameron Diaz were single. Aniston was not in North America. I found Cameron Diaz, and she was right. A brief relationship with me is not exclusive.”

Having said this, he was quite proud: "Compared to your unattractive public face, the handsome and handsome Brian Ferguson is very charming."

Hawke asked: "Where's Cameron Diaz? Why haven't I seen you guys in public together?"

Brian coughed: "This is all your fault! I can't face these Hollywood actresses!"

He said softly: "I asked her for a physical examination report, and she said I was a pervert, and then she blew it."

Hawke encouraged: "You are doing the right thing, and you are responsible for both parties."

The two picked up the wine and drank a glass.

Hawke asked: "How's the recall election going?"

Brian said: "The election process has been passed and will soon enter the actual election stage. Sacramento has no time and energy to be distracted. The decisive moment is coming."

Hawke said: "I hope Schwarzenegger is elected."

If Gray Davis wins, they may be in a lot of trouble.

The sound of footsteps came from the stairs, and someone went upstairs.

"So you are hiding here." The person came quickly and said as he walked: "You invited me over, but no one was there. I thought you took a few models to a carnival."

Hawke turned his head and saw Tom Cruise.

At the LAPD's social appreciation dinner last year, he had met Tom Cruise and was very familiar with Brian, and the latter even specially introduced Tom Cruise to him.

When Tom Cruise saw Hawke, he quickly remembered: "Hawk Osment, the founder of Twitter."

Hawke shook hands with him and said, "I didn't expect to meet you here."

Cruise smiled: "I also decided to come here on the spur of the moment. Those parties in the circle are really boring. Brian just happened to send me an invitation, so I stopped by to relax."

He said to Brian again: "Mr. Mayor, congratulations."

"This is just the beginning," Brian said.

"I wish you to enter the Oval Office as soon as possible." Cruz has recently paid attention to Bryan: "A very wonderful election, you defeated your opponent without any power to fight back."

Brian looked at Hawke: "This is all his credit. Without Hawke, I would lose."

Cruise was somewhat surprised: "I heard someone mention the West Coast studio and thought you had already transformed."

"Business strategy consulting has always been done," said Hawke.

Brian poured three glasses of wine, one each for Hawke and Cruise, and then said to Cruise: "Aren't you in some trouble recently? You can ask Hawke for help."

Cruise thought for a while and said: "Things are still under control."

He raised his glass to Hawke: "Can I contact you if necessary?"

Hawke clinked glasses with him: "You're always welcome."

The three of them stopped talking about this and started chatting about some interesting gossip about Hollywood.

In it, Tom Cruise talked about some of the troubles he encountered.

Hawke also found out through the media.

At the last Academy Awards ceremony, Cruise once again failed to win the Oscar, but his ex-wife Nicole Kidman successfully won the Best and Most Actress award thanks to Harvey Weinstein's push from behind.

The media has reported that Nicole Kidman left Cruise to live out her true self and truly create her own career.

This embarrassed Cruise.

After the two divorced, their agent was still Pie Kingsley of CAA. Cruise believed that Kingsley and CAA were too biased towards Nicole Kidman at the Oscars and did not pay enough attention to his work.

Cruise fired Kingsley and CAA in anger.

The conflict between the two parties has completely intensified. Perhaps because they are worried that other clients will follow suit, CAA and Kingsley are now using the media to smear Cruise, such as having abnormal beliefs and restricting the freedom of ex-wife Nicole Kidman.

Hawke vaguely remembered that this seemed to be just the beginning.

Tom Cruise changed the subject at this time and asked Hawke: "I attended a film test session some time ago. Is the director Eric Eason your friend?"

Hawke nodded slightly: "His new film "Journey into the Dark"?"

Cruise said: "The film was very good. Paramount Pictures wanted to buy the distribution rights from Castle Rock Pictures. I like his style very much." Hawke said: "Eric is a talented person. Director.”

Eric has been helping him a lot recently. He returned the favor and said to Cruise: "Do you like Eric's style? Eric also has a new script in his hand. He showed it to me and I thought it was very good. Interesting.”

Cruise also has a film company and said: "Is that so? When you have time, ask Eric out and let's talk together."

Hawke is a man of action: "Do you want me to call him now?"

Cruise responded: "Okay."

Hawke took out his mobile phone and dialed Eric's number directly. After a brief chat, Eric said he would be here soon.

In less than half an hour, Eric hurried to Malibu, entered the villa and was taken directly upstairs.

Tom Cruise had happened to attend a screening session for his new film before, and the two of them knew each other.

Hawke made another solemn introduction, then pulled Brian away from the terrace and gave the place to the two of them.

With Brian and him here, even if Cruise was really gay, it would be impossible for him to attack Eric.

This bowl of delicious soup has been stewed for more than 40 years without being mushy. Even if there is support from the Church of Scientology behind it, it is enough to show that Cruise is not a fool.

As for whether cooperation can be achieved, it is beyond Hawke's control.

The party didn't last long and most people left.

Brian's team members each walked away with at least one model.

Anyway, the boss pays the bill.

When going back, Eric also got into Hawke's car and asked the driver assigned to him by Catherine to drive behind.

Hawke asked Edward who was driving: "Why didn't you choose one?"

Edward said seriously: "I was scolded by them."

Eric was curious and asked: "Why?"

Edward was helpless: "I asked around and none of them have children..."

"Don't make the standards so strict." Hawke responded: "Relax a little bit. There is a forest in front of you."

Edward forced a smile: "I am a principled person."

The main reason was that he was in a bad mood today. He met with Deborah in the morning. Deborah was very dissatisfied with his job that disappeared at every turn, and forcefully asked him to resign from the West Coast Studio.

Although Deborah claimed that she would support herself, Edward was not stupid. How could any woman have such a thing as money?

He verbally rejected Deborah's request, causing the two to have a big fight.

Hawke asked Eric again: "How was your conversation with Tom Cruise?"

"He read the script I wrote, which is the one based on you and Edward." Eric elaborated: "Tommy thinks the script is very interesting and suitable for being made into a movie, but the specific method of cooperation is still unclear for the time being. No talk.”

Hawke said: "If you can reach a cooperation with Cruise, the road will be smoother in the future."

Eric smiled and said: "It's not a little bit smooth, it's a lot smoother. Although the director often takes the initiative in the cooperation between the director and the actor, that's a general situation, and superstars like Tom Cruise are not included."

He thought for a moment and added: "Cruise didn't talk to me about actual cooperation. I think he is waiting."

Edward still remembered that he and Hawke discussed whether Cruise was gay, and interjected: "Waiting for you to come to the door?"

"No!" Eric was very sensitive to this point: "I would rather not cooperate with him! Cruise is waiting for the release of "Into the Dark" to see how the film is received. Only if the film receives a good response will he discuss cooperation with me. ”

Hawke asked: "When will the film be released?"

Eric said: "Paramount Pictures took a fancy to it at the preview meeting some time ago, but Castle Rock Pictures doesn't want to resell it. If nothing else happens, it will be released in August."

Hawke wrote it down: "We will go to the theater to cheer you on."

"Buy more movie tickets." Eric was not polite to his two old friends: "This is my first real theater movie. If it fails, I can only make some video films."

Hawke thought of a way: "No problem, I will let Twitter book the venue to watch."

Eric smiled: "Boss, you are still generous."

Edward said: "I will also mobilize my brothers to watch."

Entering North Hollywood, Eric got out of the car and left.

Hawke received a call from Megan Taylor and asked Edward to drop him off at the Fox Television Center.

In terms of public relations for this election, in addition to the role of Twitter, Fox 11 Channel was used a lot.

After using Megan's favor, Hawke will spend billions to repay it.

Entering the underground parking lot of the Fox TV station, Hawke found a spare key, opened the door of Meghan's BMW 7, got in the car, and called Meghan again.

In less than ten minutes, Megan came down from upstairs, got into the passenger seat of the BMW, and asked Hawke: "Where are you going?"

The villa Hawk rented in Santa Monica was not suitable for bringing other women there.

He said: "Let's go to your place." (End of Chapter)
