Chapter 479 Shadow of the Moon
“Congratulations!”
“Wow, unbelievable, unbelievable!”
“Don’t worry, it will definitely work this time. I asked my friends to buy tickets to the cinema to support him on Friday.”
“After hearing these movie reviews, I couldn’t help but become curious. It’s all James’s fault for not inviting me to the premiere. Put the responsibility on him.”
"I can finally get a good night's sleep in the next two days."
In the chatter, friends were saying goodbye, one by one giving hugs.
Ryan stayed at the end a little cautiously, but he still smiled when he saw Anson. In just two days, the distance seemed to have shortened a lot.
Seth Rogen complained vehemently earlier, “I thought it was a bad review, so we came here to cheer us up, and then we hid in the bathroom to gloat, but it turned into a rave party, so disappointing. . ”
“I’m so jealous right now, I need to calm down.”
Unexpectedly, Anson's face was full of seriousness, "You will be even more jealous after the premiere box office comes out. Please be mentally prepared in advance."
Seth was stunned, blinked, "Uh, Anson, you better not do comedy in the future. You are handsome and have a sense of humor. Please leave us a way out and leave the funny thing to us."
"Haha."
Not only Anson, but also Ryan standing behind was laughing.
Waiting for Seth to leave, Ryan stepped forward and said, "Congratulations, I'm looking forward to it now."
Looking at Anson, Ryan said with a serious face, "'Please look into his eyes, they are the most thrilling flash of blue this year.' I will definitely pay attention to it."
That sentence is also a movie review, the same Give Anson the credit.
Rarely, Ryan noticed that Anson was a little reserved——
Suddenly, standing under the spotlight, countless praises rained down like a torrential rain, instantly flying into the sky. It was inevitable. Still a little confused and confused.
Anson laughed dumbly and made a joke, "Be careful not to fall in love."
"Haha." Ryan laughed heartily, "I will be extra careful."
After saying that, after a pause, Ryan subconsciously glanced back, hesitating to speak, but thinking about it, The words that had reached the tip of my tongue were swallowed.
Anson followed Ryan's line of sight and looked over -
Brad.
At today's film review party, Brad was always out of shape, a little depressed and a little anxious. Although he tried to smile, he kept getting distracted in the end.
Before Anson could speak, Ryan had already said, "Then I'll leave first. I'll go to the cinema on the weekend and pray that I can buy tickets."
The subtext is that the cinema will definitely be full.
Anson heard it, "I would like to book out all the movie theaters in Los Angeles, but unfortunately, I don't have enough financial resources, so I can only make up my own mind."
"Haha." Rui En was immediately amused and couldn't help but clapped his hands and laughed. Although he was worried about Brad, the protagonists of today's party were Anson and James. At the end of the hesitation, Ryan didn't say anything more and called Brad later.
One after another, all the guests left, and the hall that was noisy a second ago suddenly became quiet, leaving only a pile of wine bottles and garbage.
James was probably drunk and fell asleep somewhere, while Chris was rummaging through garbage bags in the kitchen to clean up.
Anson had a headache: Sure enough, the party was fun for a while, but it was cremated afterwards.
No wonder there is a professional team in Los Angeles that specializes in cleaning up parties, and business is booming. Anson and the others still underestimated the craziness of today's party. They originally thought it was just a small party and were not prepared. Now looking at the mess in front of them, it would be too late to call a professional team at short notice.
So, I can only do it myself.
After taking a long breath, Anson was ready to help Chris share some of the tidying up work. Otherwise, there was no telling how long Chris would be busy alone.
Suddenly, Brad, who was sitting on the ground leaning against the cupboard with his eyes closed, stood up like a zombie, breaking the calm and particularly terrifying.
Brad seemed to be in a tipsy state. He stood up holding on to the cupboard, his body swaying slightly. When he saw Anson, his words and movements paused for a moment, "Uh, sorry, I may need to go out. Sorry to stay. Leave the mess in front of you."
Anson looked at Brad, "Are you sure? Your current condition is really not suitable for going out."
Brad waved his hand and walked straight towards it. Gate, "I know, but I have to. In fact, I just lied. I didn't reschedule the time with the producer. I just told him that I needed to come back to wash up and change clothes; now, I need to rush to the Hilton Hotel Meet him ”
Anson stared at Brad quietly, took a deep breath, and finally couldn't hold back his words, "Of course, no one should miss such an opportunity."
There was a sharp edge in his words.
Brad caught it. He stopped and looked at Anson with a surprised look on his face. "What do you mean? I found an excuse to postpone the interview, just hoping to come back to support you. You Forget it, at least you can show some respect."
Anson shook his head slightly, "Really?"
Brad was a little angry and raised his shoulders, "What!"
Anson, "Did you really come all the way to support me and James?"
Brad, "Of course..."
This time, Anson didn't let Brad finish his sentence. , "No, you are not, you are not here to support me and James. If you really wanted to support us, you would not choose to be absent when you thought the movie was successful and then show up again when you realized that the movie failed."< br>
Brad's expression was slightly stunned, and his shoulders and arms were obviously stiff, "Wha...what? No, that's not what happened."
"I told you, I was at the Hilton A producer wanted to interview me at the hotel and I didn’t think he should be turned down.”
Anson nodded slightly, "Yes, but you still left. What? Suddenly it doesn't matter? Suddenly the producer can wait any longer?"
Brad Zhang He opened his mouth, with a look of astonishment on his face, "You...you, and James, I put our friendship first, and I think I need to support you. Anson, this is ridiculous, I refuse to accept your insult."
Anson was not angry, no anger, no sadness, just a sigh and bitterness, "Brad, I think you heard the good news about Century City, everyone said the movie was a success, apparently, 'Spider-Man' It may really explode the market, you are jealous, you are panicked, you can't stand it."
"Why, why did 'Murder by Numbers' fail, but 'Spider-Man' can succeed, you. Unable to accept this reality.”
“However.”
"When rumors spread that there are more and more bad reviews, you suddenly realize, hey, it turns out we are still brothers in need."
"But, you didn't expect that those bad reviews were not bad reviews, they were just It’s just a moderate review.”
“What’s worse is that the mid-review was followed by a series of positive reviews, and the movie actually came back to life, and it seemed that James and I were still going to succeed.”
“You can’t. Accept, you started drinking, you refused to exchange eyes with James and I, and when we were celebrating, you were like a party ghost, absent-minded the whole time, you tried to hide it, but you couldn't help it."
"Bu. Ladd, you shouldn't drink because alcohol makes you a bad actor"
Ryan was worried about Brad, and so was Anson. The entire party could not ignore Brad, but they never expected that the expression and demeanor that caught their sight were completely different from what they had imagined. Until just now, Brad That well-intentioned lie finally confirmed the worst suspicions.
Anson's eyes were filled with sadness.
