Chapter 264: Cunning Quentin
John had just sat down at home when the doorbell rang.

The servant opened the door and a stranger was standing outside.

"you are?"

"I'm from the crew of Pulp Fiction, and the director asked me to bring two movies to Mr. Travolta!"

……

At this time, John was discussing something upstairs with his wife Preston.

Downstairs, John's two children, Joe and Jenny, looked at the servant holding two discs. Jenny said, "Ada, what's that in your hand?"

"Jenny, this is something a director brought to you! He hopes you can watch these two movies and then decide whether to star in his movie!"

Qiao said to Jenny, "It's that strange director just now!"

"He still won't give up!"

Jenny smiled and said, "I'd like to see what movie he brought for Dad."

After that, she said to the servant, "Ada, put it here, I'll tell Dad later!"

"Okay, Jenny!"

……

After the servant left, Jenny held up the disc and said, "What era is this? Why are you still using discs? And these are Chinese movies!"

Qiao laughed and said, "This kind of film is either recorded by the director to give to others, or it is kept by the director himself. But, in the final analysis, it is all pirated!"

Jenny smiled and said to her brother, "Do you want to see it?"

"It's okay anyway..."

Ten minutes later, Jenny said to her brother, "This is a crime movie!"

"It's very cliché...but the plot is very interesting. The gangster boss actually treats the undercover as his own brother and even wants to introduce his wife's sister to him! I wonder how he would feel if he knew the other party's identity!"

“I’m looking forward to it too, haha!”

At the beginning, the two were chatting and laughing.

However, Jenny soon discovered that something was wrong, and said to his brother: "Look at this drug-addicted guy, is he the screenwriter we saw today?"

Qiao stared at the TV for a long time and said doubtfully, "It doesn't look like it. The guy on TV looks like a drug addict!"

But the more Jiani looked, the more she felt that Afen's husband was the Shen Lang she met today: "No, it's him, I'm definitely not mistaken, my God, the makeup technique is too good, he is completely different from the guy named Jeff in real life!"

At this time, Joe also discovered that the drug addict on TV was the man who had an unpleasant experience with his agent Gotti today: "Yes, I also discovered it, it's him! Look at the way he sat in the stairwell, it's so similar! He acted so well!"

"Just like the homeless people in some of our neighborhoods in Los Angeles! God, look at his eyes! I once saw a classmate of mine like that!"

"How did your classmate end up?"

"...I'm so scared! His pupils are exactly the same as that person's, they are so similar!" Jenny exclaimed: "This person's acting is so great. Now I believe that he might have been nominated for the Silver Bear Award, but he refused it in the end!"

……

An hour later, when Jenny and Joe were watching the movie intently downstairs, John and his wife came down from upstairs.

"Oh my God, why are you still sitting here? Don't you know that your uncle is here to pick us up for dinner today? Why don't you change your clothes?" Preston looked at the brother and sister who were concentrating in the living room in surprise.

Jenny turned around and said, "Dad, Mom, come and watch this movie!"

John is a man who values ​​family very much. He comforted his wife and sat next to them and said, "What kind of movie is this? You're watching it so seriously."

"Dad, the screenwriter today is a super awesome actor!" Joe looked at his father very seriously.

John frowned and said, "Wait, which screenwriter and which actor?"

……

After listening to the two people's introductions, John also became interested.

He said to his wife, "Preston, call Shelby and tell him we'll go to the party another day. I have something else to do!"

"But! Okay!" John had just sat down when he noticed that the subtitles of the movie had already started playing: "Kids, can we watch it again?"

Qiao quickly shook his head and said, "No, no, no, there's another movie. Let's watch another one!"

John was a little confused.

But when he saw Shen Lang wearing a eunuch's dragon robe and sitting on a high chair, he was surprised and asked, "He is still acting in a costume movie?"

Unfortunately, no one paid any attention to him.

Xu Ke's films have a super fast pace from beginning to end, and many Eastern thoughts cannot be understood by Westerners if they are not careful.

This made John and the two children concentrate completely, afraid of missing a line.

Finally, even Preston sat down and looked at the screen.

At the end of "New Dragon Inn", everyone was still immersed in the fighting that had just happened.

After a long while, John slowly exhaled and said, "This Jeff is an excellent actor!"

"Dad, watch this crime movie again!"

……

After the two films were finished, John breathed a sigh of relief. He turned to look at his wife and said, "What do you think Quentin meant by showing me these two films?"

Just as they were about to continue discussing this topic, suddenly, John's cell phone rang.

He picked up the phone, listened for a while, and then frowned slowly.

……

In the tavern, Quentin took a sip of wine and said to Shen Lang: "I don't know what John's reaction will be after watching your performance!"

"Why don't you call him, or go to his house in person and give him my two plays, what if he doesn't want to watch them? What if after watching them he only thinks my acting is okay, after all, that doesn't prove my screenwriting ability!"

"Jeff, you are not polite at all. You are totally unlike the Chinese people who are known for their humility!"

Shen Lang rolled his eyes at him and thought to himself, if I were to be humble, you would have taken advantage of me long ago.

Quentin said, "Believe me, John will definitely call me."

Shen Lang became curious.

"I've read the script for Paradise City directed by Nick, the one written by little Louis!"

Shen Lang asked, "Is that the movie that stupid agent mentioned?"

"That's right! Nick is indeed a good director, and Louis is also a famous screenwriter in Hollywood. But this movie "Paradise City" is just a tool!"

"Tools?" Shen Lang was puzzled.

"Haha, do you know money laundering? It's the kind that turns illegal funds into legal ones..."

Haha, when it comes to money laundering, there is no one more knowledgeable than Manager Lu.

Movies, live broadcasts, antiques... whatever you can think of, I, Manager Lu, can handle it!
It turned out to be a movie shot for money laundering, and the script probably wouldn’t be very good.

“The key point is that I called the Money Laundering and Asset Recovery Section of the Department of Justice, and they couldn’t make the movie!”

"Fuck!"

"Without the invitation to Paradise City, and if you let him appreciate your strength, he will change his mind!"

Piglet looked at Quentin as if he were a monster: "Why don't you just tell him?"

Quentin shrugged: "Because I want him to come to me on his own initiative!"

Shen Lang seemed to be meeting Quentin for the first time. This guy really holds a grudge. What about my 500,000 yuan...

Quentin bared his teeth at Shen Lang and said, "Am I awesome?"

You are so awesome!
You are so cunning!
