Which one is better if the officials are forced to die together [Comprehensive British and American]

Chapter 120

But now, since Lucia is a director in her own right, it is said that she is a hot new director recently—Carl can't put this description together with Lucia, but after thinking about it carefully, he still doesn't feel much disobedience—— Then it would be much easier to make an appointment with Lucia.

In this circle, whether it is a director, an actor or a host, there will always be an agent who will take care of all kinds of affairs for them. There are indeed many independent practitioners, but they are definitely not many.

Lucia happens to be one of those independent directors.

This is not so surprising, after all, Karl knows that Lucia is not an ordinary person, she is not even from Earth, and it is probably a joke to come to Earth to be a director, so it is not surprising that she does not find an agent.

As for how she sneaked into the banquet held against Carl last time?For a mercenary like Lucia who uses his brain to complete the task, it is not difficult at all, and he can do it with a little trick.

"...I'll send you her phone number if you need it, Carl."

The person on the other end of the phone was still chattering, "She's a novice, a complete novice, but I swear she's amazingly talented, there were countless agencies before you who wanted to sign her, but Miss Mora turned them all down, she said She's waiting for someone special... We all think it's just a rejection cliché, but maybe she's after your company, which would make sense for her last time..."

"Thank you for your precious message, sir," Carl said absently. "Please send me her number."

He hung up the phone and received a message from the other party half a minute later.

Before contacting Lucia, Carl searched the Internet, and there were not many topics related to her. The first movie was at the forefront. The introduction was a cyberpunk sci-fi movie.

This kind of film is not suitable for novice directors at all.

A small number of themes means that no blockbuster commercial films can be made; a large number of special effects means a huge investment; and non-soft sci-fi movies have many big scenes and long shots, which is a test of the director's ability.

But judging from the reviews, Lucia made this movie very well.

Carl looked at the movie curiously, skipped the previous shots, and after watching it for less than 3 minutes, he knew why the movie had received such high praise.

Generally, cyberpunk movies are shot with post-production and special effects. Lucia’s cyberpunk movie is shot from a real alien city, and it is also a famous tourist city.

She directly dragged a group of earthlings there, and then filmed a story with the theme of "people of this century travel to the future". Come on, the actors don't have to worry about acting skills, everything is a real reaction, and then use high-tech aerial lenses to process it , do post-production and editing, and work together, this is a movie.

It's really hard to make a bad movie when you make a movie like this. As long as the editor is not so bad that it makes people collapse, the finished product will at least be on the passing line.

After knowing the situation of Lucia's movie, Karl also had a score in his mind. As a mercenary, Lucia didn't need to be a director on earth. It is unlikely that she likes to do it because of her "movie" posture. This, after ruling out all the impossible, Lucia has only one goal.

Get his attention.

She succeeded.

However, while attracting Karl's attention, she also aroused Karl's vigilance. After a short thought, Karl decided to hold back temporarily and see what she would do.

Tony had fallen asleep.

The apartment became extremely quiet, but the joys and sorrows of the whole world were still ringing in Karl's ears.

He fiddled with the computer, silently listening to the voice of the world.

Such turbulent waves had ceased to be his holy voice many years ago, and the older he got and the more he watched, the more he doubted his actions.

Maybe young people always need to grow up like this, at first they walk along the path of their elders, just do it without thinking too much, then they grow up and gradually become an independent individual, no longer their elders They are dissatisfied and rebellious, and they urgently need a new way of doing things because they are no longer the same as they used to be.

That's what happened between Tony and Howard, but never just between them.

Carl closed the computer and sent a message to Andrew, asking Andrew to come pick him up immediately.

"Where are you going?" Andrew asked after agreeing to come down, and he added, "I need to filter the suitable itinerary according to your destination, which will take a little time."

"To the metropolis."

This time Andrew hesitated a little, but he still asked: "Do you want to see Mr. Luthor?"

"Andrew!"

"I understand." Andrew said calmly. He already knew Carl's temper during the short time of getting along, and he knew that Carl would not be angry because of his talk. "You can go out now, I have already arrived downstairs."

This is just the villa where Tony lives temporarily, but there is only such a building standing alone for several miles. Andrew was arranged by Carl in the vacant guest room downstairs. The conditions downstairs are not as good as those upstairs, but the infrastructure is all available. , Andrew can take good care of himself.

Carl tidied up the bed in the room a little, opened the closet and changed his clothes.

These clothes were bought by Jarvis for him after he moved in, and they were very in line with Carl's usual dressing habits. There were a lot of beautiful and fashionable suits and casual jackets, as well as dozens of bow ties.

Carl chose a white shirt with a pair of loose dark red suit pants, and Shi Shiran went downstairs.

Andrew stood outside the car and waited. Seeing him coming, he bent down and opened the car door for Carl.

"I think there is something wrong." Carl said solemnly after getting into the car, "I suddenly found that all the men working around me are so strange! Whether it's Tony or Lexi, the most capable assistants around them are women. I'm not the only one. When I get back, I'll tell my brother to get me some girls."

Like Wanda.

If it wasn't for Wanda's age, Carl would have already figured out a way to get Wanda to work in his own company, so it wouldn't be Magneto's turn.

But it doesn't matter, Eric can't keep people—absolutely not.

Wanda was sent to the Brotherhood by him from the very beginning, and Wanda also knew that Magneto was her father. In this case, Wanda was able to make Wanda take him because of Magneto’s autocracy, cruelty and his malice towards ordinary people. Even if Wanda took his brother back with him this time, he would break up with Eric again because of Eric's personality.

Counting the time, when Wanda decided to leave for the second time, it was almost time to come out to study.

Ask Tony to write a letter of recommendation for Wanda, put the little girl in college, and ask Rao to send Wanda a job offer after studying for a year or two. Wanda can enter the company as an intern without graduating, and it is logical to stay in the job after graduation. , what a perfect arrangement.

Carl smugly imagined the scene of a red-haired beauty standing behind him, and then realized that that day would probably take four or five years to realize, and he was a little frustrated.

He sent Lex a message.

"doing what?"

"Working overtime at home, some work has not been processed yet."

Lex responded instantly, as always.

"Tony was suffering so I went to New York to be with him for a while. I managed to get him on a normal schedule today, and I was so tired just looking at him."

"Are you still at his house honey?"

"No, I came out. I don't really want to go home. Anyway, there is no one at home. My brother usually lives in the company and doesn't come back very often. Rao has also been assigned a task by him recently. May I go to your house?"

Lex froze for a moment, raised his head reflexively and looked around.

This is his laboratory at home. According to what he knows about Carl, the other party should not have any proposal to come in and take a look, and out of caution, the laboratory he set up at home does not have any outrageous and surprising things. A device that looks sophisticated at first glance may be boring to Carl.

But it's nothing, just a little tidying up.

"You are welcome anytime, honey, even if you want to live in the master bedroom, I will never refuse."

This sentence successfully made Carl laugh. He withdrew his gaze on the phone, turned his head and looked out the window through a layer of glass. The metropolis near night is still very bustling, full of traffic and crowds.

He lowered his head and typed to reply.

Lex took off his gloves, took off his lab coat, and walked out of the laboratory.

Before closing the gate, he entered a string of passwords on the keyboard at the door. Behind him, a whitewashed wall fell from above and stuck into a raised groove in the ground. The two were seamlessly combined. At the same time, no one can see that there is a secret room here.

"Okay, I'll be right there." Carl sent a new message, with several kissing expressions at the end of the sentence.

This made Lex couldn't help laughing, and then he frowned again, looking at himself in front of the waiting mirror.

Beige home clothes, not very serious, very suitable for the situation.No frills, extra accessories, maybe Carl would like that style, but Lex doesn't think he needs to rely on things he doesn't like to gain favor.

He thinks Cal would love him in either form, just as he would love Cal in either form.

But that being said, Lex still has some doubts in his mind about how Carl will react to his new look.

It's useless to think too much, Lex thought, trying to ignore the beating heart in his chest and the growing uneasiness as time went by.

Damn, he thought, damn Superman, that crazy, perverted, psychotic, self-righteous idiot.

It's all his fault!

Karl arrived at Lex's home at this time.

Similar to all other rich friends, Lex's home also occupies a huge area with a villa.

Even at night, when the sky has turned leaden gray, street lamps and various lights hidden in the garden still show the beauty and elegance of the garden to the fullest.

In front of the stepped fountain, the hazy water mist and colored lights reflect each other, refracting rainbow-like brilliance in mid-air.

But all the splendor was nothing compared to Lex who was waiting for Carl in front of the fountain.

The car stopped without a sound, and before Andrew got out of the car, Lex took a natural step forward and gently opened the car door for Carl.

"Please, honey." He said with a smile.

Carl stepped forward, raised his head, and seemed to want to say something with his mouth half-opened, but before he could say anything, he saw Lex's appearance.

He still maintained the expression of half-opening his mouth to say something, but he was completely stunned.

"Honey?" Lex gently reminded, his smile was still so calm and friendly, with a hint of teasing, "Are you fascinated by me?"

Damn Superman.he thought to himself.

"You are very handsome now."

Carl finally got his voice back.

He looked at Lex, stared at him for a few seconds, then smiled slightly.
