Chapter 445 What a fuss
"Anson, are you okay? Are you sure you are okay?"
"Jesus Christ."
"Where are you now? What happened? What's going on? Are you okay now?"
One sentence after another, like a barrage of words, he couldn't control himself after saying one sentence. He didn't have time to wait for Anson's answer and then threw out a bunch of question marks. Almost drowning Anson.
Finally, Anson came to his senses and said, "It's okay. Why am I in trouble?"
Took the phone off his ear and glanced at the caller ID——
It took him a moment to realize. There was no caller ID, just a phone number, and my mind was too muddled to remember whose number it was.
"Uh, sorry, who are you?"
One second. Two seconds.
Telephone:...
I was speechless for a while, ridiculous and funny, and the swear word was already on my lips, but in the end I swallowed it hard, rubbed my temples, and let out a long breath.
“I am your brother.”
Anson raised his chin slightly, “Oh, Luca, what’s wrong, what’s the matter?”
It’s okay not to say anything. , this question, Lucas was immediately irritated, "What is it? Anson Wood, what else are you asking me about?"
"Since last night, my mother has called you so many times, but you haven't answered any of them, and you haven't replied to any messages. It wasn't until just now that my mother was worried about your situation, so she called me."
"As a result, I You didn’t answer the phone, God, I almost..."
Cracking, Lucas was also frightened for a while——
I almost said the next words. .
Finally pulling back from the brink, Lucas bit his tongue hard, and the smell of blood spread in his mouth. Then he barely controlled himself, fearing that he would be exposed, so he changed the subject in a hurry.
"Your agent said you were resting at home, but we couldn't reach you no matter how we contacted you. No one answered your mobile phone or landline phone. Mom thought you were drinking at home until you fell unconscious."
The speaker is unintentional, but the listener is intentional -
Ansen suddenly remembered how he traveled through time, and the white powder on the toilet seat in the bathroom.
I couldn't help but feel guilty. I didn't notice the slightly raised voice when Lucas changed the topic. Instead, I was worried that I would inadvertently expose my mistakes again, so I couldn't help but blink and quickly changed the topic.
“Sorry, I’m sleeping.”
At this time, Anson looked at the phone screen again, and then noticed the number of missed calls on Qitong. It was estimated that the answering machine was also full.
I couldn’t help scratching my head, and Anson was also a little embarrassed.
"Ah, I really fell asleep completely. Sorry."
Those understatement words made Lucas choke, and the anger in his heart was stuck in his throat, and finally Everything turned into helplessness and absurdity, and Lucas felt his temples twitch violently.
“You should hire an assistant.”
"Huh?" Anson hadn't woken up yet, his brain couldn't function at all and couldn't keep up with the rhythm. He didn't know where Lucas' idea came from.
Lucas, "I said, you need an assistant."
"You have a job and your breaks; your agent and publicist can't be with you all the time. They are not nannies around you, and you don’t know how to handle those chores yourself. You are a guy who might not be able to come back for three hours even if you go to the convenience store at the corner to buy eggs. You need an assistant to help with the chores. "
“At least, help answer the phone, help drive, help organize your closet and fill the refrigerator, you can’t do all these things yourself.”
“What’s more, after ‘Spider-Man’ is released, , you need an assistant to stop the crazy movie fans and paparazzi, you can't continue to wander around by yourself."
Blah blah blah. Anson drooped his head. He felt that his eardrums might have begun to bleed, so he might as well agree simply, "Okay."
But obviously, Lucas was not listening, and he raised his head slightly Ending tone, "Anson, I'm serious. You need an assistant. If you can't afford the cost, then let me hire an assistant for you."
"Yes, this is a good idea. , I will be in charge of the interview and help you choose the assistant. You are not allowed to refute, and you are not allowed to sneak out."
Anson:..."Okay"
"Anson Wood!"
"Luca, I said yes. I don't have enough sleep now, and I feel like my head is about to burst. Can you speak slower?"
Lucas: ..."Sorry."
He bowed his head obediently and admitted his mistake, Lucas didn't hesitate for a second.
Self-esteem? What is that? Can it be eaten?
Lucas softened his tone and said, "You need to take a good rest."
"So I slept for twelve hours."
"..."
"Haha, I'm sorry, Luca, I really didn't mean to blame you. So, mom called me, what's the matter?"
"You still ask me? You asked her yourself two weeks ago , you are going to Columbus to collect information and ask her if she can lend you her old friend’s studio for a period of time. She will reply specifically to you.”
The Columbus mentioned here is a city in Ohio.
For many people, this city is not famous and has nothing special worth mentioning; but in fact, this city is very special and very trendy, with fifteen Fortune 1000 companies Located here, and all of them are technology industries targeting the future.
Therefore, the urban architectural style is also very distinctive:
Simple and capable lines and the popularization of artificial intelligence are two key words, which have two contradictory textures of retro and future, and the collision creates Different charm.
After finishing the filming of "Cat and Mouse Game" and before entering the full summer promotion of "Spider-Man", Anson had about ten days to spare. He was planning to leave Los Angeles and go to Columbus to enjoy a period of peace and quiet. , maybe you can find inspiration for painting between different buildings——
Painting can make the whole person calm down.
So, Anson asked Nora.
But Anson himself did not expect that things would come in like a tornado, completely disrupting the plan. He completely forgot about the Columbus incident.
But...
The overwhelming noise across the entire North American continent had no impact on Nora and Lucas. This was proved once again:
The influence of the film industry is not that far-reaching, and not everyone watches movies.
Anyway, the other members of the Wood family didn’t watch it and had no idea of Anson’s soaring popularity.
Anson gently rubbed his temples, "Sorry, I completely forgot about this. There is definitely no way to go there now. Even if I want to go, it will have to be by the end of May."
"Ah, I'm sorry, Luca, I will call my mother personally to explain."
Lucas also realized at this time that Anson's hoarse voice showed no sign of waking up, "You Drink water first, and then go back to sleep. Since you have slept for twelve hours, do you want to fill your stomach first?”
Just in time, Anson's stomach rumbled.
Lucas actually heard it, "Your stomach has already begun to protest." As he spoke, he couldn't hold back, and a smile crept up the corner of his mouth.
Anson was about to retort when the sound of ringing the doorbell came from downstairs, "Luca, you won't ask Edgar to come to confirm the situation, right? Otherwise, who will come to the door now?"
While complaining and going downstairs, Anson opened the door to the house. Standing in front of him were two middle-aged men in suits and leather shoes and gold-rimmed glasses.
Anson blinked, "Sorry, I believe in Buddhism."
