Chapter 255: Keep the audience confused

Chapter 255: Keep the audience confused
After a fifteen-hour journey, as soon as Shen Lang got off the plane, he saw Quentin, who was wearing a fancy suit and dressed like a country gangster.

When he saw him, Quentin came up and gave him a big hug.

Then, in front of countless Chinese people passing by, he shouted to Shen Lang: "Lang, Niubi!"

Shen Lang was speechless: “……………………”

If someone doesn’t know, they would think you were calling me a jerk!
Wang Zhuo, who was standing behind Shen Lang, felt very familiar when he heard these two words: "Brother, this foreigner has studied in China! Can he say these words?"

When Quentin saw the burly Wang Zhuo, he said with envy, "After all, he is a Chinese celebrity, and he has bodyguards with him!"

……

When the [bodyguard] and [Gold Medal Pig Manager] followed the two of them to the hotel with their luggage, he was completely stunned.

hotel?

Can this be called a hotel?
The mottled wallpaper covered with water stains and the old man with a neck full of big gold chains at the door, that’s all.

What era is this? Do you still need a key to open the door when staying in a hotel?

"Brother Lang, how about we go over there? If you hadn't told me this is America, I would have thought we were in Cuba!"

Shen Lang rolled his eyes at him and said, "We are here to film, not to enjoy ourselves, so just make do with it!"

"No," Xiao Zhuli said excitedly, "With this economic condition, the accommodation is not much better than those of Hengpiao. It doesn't matter to me as an assistant, but you are such a big star..."

"Who do you think knows me here?"

"You can't say that. This reflects the financial situation of the employer. What if this girl is a liar and sells us to a gigolo club?"

Shen Lang laughed when he heard this: "You? A gigolo parlor?"

Xiao Zhuli was stimulated by Shen Lang's smile: "What's wrong? After all, I am a master who has watched countless movies. I can do all kinds of strange poses and movements!"

Seeing the two people communicating in Chinese, Quentin must have guessed something: "Lang, I'm sorry, you may not know my financial situation. Although the last movie "Reservoir Dogs" made me some money, I have already bought a car. Look, it's the one parked outside!"

Shen Lang waved his hand and said, "As long as it's clean, the environment doesn't matter!"

After hearing this, Quentin admired Shen Lang even more.

When he was in China before, after leaving Shen Lang's house, he also asked other Chinese people about Shen Lang.

This Shen Lang is a well-known movie and television star in China.

Being able to invite such a star, and inviting him without discussing his salary... well, he was lucky to be invited.

Who knew that she wasn't even picky about accommodation? I was so nervous before, afraid that Shen Lang would buy a plane ticket back home directly after seeing the conditions.

After settling down and taking a quick bite, Quentin said to Shen Lang, "Lang, my script is already written. Take a look first. Thank you for trusting me unconditionally and flying to Los Angeles without even reading the script! You are my friend forever!"

Shen Lang took the script and read it carefully.

Watched for a long time!

Damn, if you don’t understand, just ask if it’s embarrassing!
When Quentin heard that Shen Lang couldn't understand English, he was also dumbfounded.

This guy speaks fluent English and can even make jokes about proverbs like "Large potato".

But you can't understand it?
Isn't this funny?

Quentin had thought of ten thousand difficulties beforehand, but he had never thought of this.

Just when Quentin was thinking about how to get a free translator in Chinatown, the bodyguard behind Shen Lang suddenly said, "Brother Lang, you said you can speak but not read. How did you take the CET-4 test in school? Just do a listening test?"

Shen Lang glared at Xiao Zhuli and said, "If you can, translate it for me!"
-
Don't you hate that?
Really annoying
-
Hate what?
What do you hate?
-
Uncomfortable silences.
Awkward silence Why do we feel it's necessary to yak about bullshit in order to be comfortable?
Why do we keep talking nonsense to maintain the atmosphere?

..............................

Watching Xiaozhu reciting the lines from the script in standard American English, Quentin was numb, and Shen Lang was also numb.

"Of course, Zhuo'er! You're quite capable. I never dozed off in foreign language class!"

"Tsk, before I joined the army, I went to college in the United States!"

"Hiss...Isn't it expensive to go to university in America?"

Xiao Zhuli said shyly, "I didn't do well in school, so I came here at my own expense. My sister spent over 700,000 yuan in three years! Don't get me wrong, the high tuition is one reason, but the main reason is that I eat too much! For a meal of barbecue, I can eat five kilograms of beef!"

“…………………………”

The life of rich people is so boring and dull. Damn it!
However, it doesn’t matter. This second-generation rich man has become my assistant now. So birth is not important. What matters is the acquired efforts. Brother Lang is a typical winner in life! Let’s learn from him!
"Zhuo! Please translate the script for me first!"

It must be said that Wang Zhuo, this assistant, may be average in terms of his professional ability, but when he goes abroad, other assistants really can't compare with him. The translation speed of this humanoid translator is very fast.

After listening for a while, Shen Lang asked Wang Zhuo to stop.

Quentin, who was standing by, thought that Shen Lang had discovered something wrong and was eagerly waiting for his comment.

Who knew that after a while, Shen Lang said with a dark face: "Brother, did you get the wrong script?"

Quentin was puzzled and said, "No? What's wrong?"

what happened?
Shen Lang didn't want to talk anymore.

The story is indeed the same story, and the classic narrative style of "Pulp Fiction" is also retained!
But what about Quentin's uniquely chatty dialogue in Pulp Fiction?

Suddenly, Shen Lang remembered Lao Lu’s mission.

"He has made Quentin's film style a reality and has become the most important man in his life!"

"When the difficulty reaches 5, you can receive 1 attribute entry above red!"

That makes sense.

"Quentin, do you feel that your script is... very stiff!"

Shen Lang didn't know how to describe it, and Quentin was also confused.

"It's, uh, the way black people talk, hey, man, your dog took a dump in the yard yesterday, man, you arr dead meeat!"

“Take a hike!”

“What were you thinking?”

"And so on!"

Quentin suddenly realized: "Dirty words, haha, dirty words! My movie is called Pulp Fiction, how can there be no dirty words in the content?"

“Uh…!” Shen Lang didn’t know how to explain. “It doesn’t have to be all dirty words. It has to confuse the audience, understand? The narrative structure of this movie has to confuse the audience!”

The little pig said: "The bounds of reason, the unexpected!"

Shen Lang snapped his fingers and said to Xiao Zhuli, "Your five kilograms of beef were not eaten in vain!"
