: Epilogue (1)

"In previous screenings, some critics called this film a downright feminist work. What do you think?"
"Why did you make such a work that is far from style?"
"According to those who participated in the screening, are all male characters marginalized, is it because of their own reasons?"
Facing these seemingly aggressive journalists, I couldn't help but feel depressed and annoyed, but I had to deal with it on the surface: "I just want to change the subject and try various types of movies as much as possible, and that's it."
But this not only did not kill these guys, but made them even more talkative, and I got more headaches, even though it has been several times, why can't I always deal with these guys?
Fortunately, I put a hand on my shoulder: "Hey guys, it's not good to treat a lady like this."
The reporters in front of them immediately chuckled and smirked, and sent the things in his hands to him in front of each other: "Mr. Cowell ..."
I couldn't help rolling my eyes, and finally I can breathe a sigh of relief, but within a few seconds, the other person held my arm and pulled me to the theater: "Sorry, everyone, the premiere is about to start soon Let's talk about it later. "
He walked a long way with him in this way, after entering the theater and throwing the reporters out, he looked at me and laughed: "Dear, this is not the case, it has been so long. You haven't learned how to deal with it. Those guys. "
"I'm not you. I have decades of experience." I said politely.
"But since you have gone this way, you must learn to deal with them." He laughed again, and saw that my face became a little ugly before changing the topic: "Yes, the reporters didn't ask me somehow. Question? "
"Fortunately, it's all about the movie. There is no such stupid thing as last time. I'm not your new little girlfriend. Such a question." I couldn't help but roll my eyes.
He laughed immediately, and he was so overwhelmed that he really wanted to be punched. Unfortunately, this is a public place, so I can only stare at him and yell, "Daddy!"
"Oh dear, sorry, very sorry." Dad finally stopped. Although the shoulders were still being drawn, "But rest assured, they have sent that guy to Fiji as a foreign correspondent, and there will never be such a stupid thing again. I promise."
Looking at his brave smile, I could only sigh again, and continued to walk in his arms.
Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Lily. Lily Beckinsale Cowell, 26, has just launched her fourth film, directed entirely at a female perspective. Yes, the daughter of Adrian Cowell, who is famous in Hollywood or infamous. This is my father next to me. Although he is already in his fifties, it looks like he is only in his forties at most. It is full of male charm at any time. It's easy ... to attract women, especially with talent and power ...
My father has many titles, what is the most talented screenwriter, sought after producer, super director who is good at creating miracles. And privately only close people will call it, the King of Hollywood and so on, but the best known is Playboy! When I was young, I remember there were many aunts besides mom. Many of them are very good to me, and I am very good with them. For example, Aunt Charlie, I like to chat with her the most. Many things that I do n’t want to tell my mother and father will tell her, and she is also happy to solve me.
The consequence is that when I realize that my family environment is not right, I am used to it. Okay, I'm used to it, but I can't imagine it anyway, mother and other aunts, how can they get used to it?
"You know, Lily, your father is a terrible person. He can control people's hearts. He plays with us under the palm of our hands and makes us unable to resist." This is the answer of the mother, of course, with a smile, a pair of " "I'm lying to you" looks really annoying. While others, Aunt Sarah, Aunt Ini, Aunt Monica, etc., answered that they were similar to their mothers. If it wasn't for discussion, it was absolutely impossible. In the end, Aunt Charlie resolved my confusion a little.
"Your dad is talented, knows how to coax a woman, and has insight into people's hearts, and can easily grasp the weaknesses of others and use them." She said so.
Well, I admit, Dad is indeed very talented, so I wo n’t talk about the
The Matrix
trilogy, the
Lord of the Rings
trilogy, and so on. I remember that it was about ten years ago. There are also aunts directing artistic films. This type of film is generally not high at the box office, so some reporters who could n’t find the topic made fun of him because he would no longer make commercial films. As a result, he easily took Uncle Knight and their couples, um, and Emma Wo Tessen produced a "Stolen Dream Space" for the class to keep everyone shut.
Later, he was surprised by the comic director who produced the "Dreaver" trilogy, which was a sensation, created a new superhero genre, and made the second-tier superhero the most popular. one. Many people continue to dig into the connotation, and even say that the third subprime crisis before insinuation, the only thing that is not very happy is the surprise comics, because the too realistic style makes them unable to add the Night Devils into the Avengers .
But Dad was not very happy. He said in private that in fact, this series is more suitable for Batman. I don't quite understand. If he thinks that Batman's wealthy status can be more ironic in the suggestion of the subprime crisis, Daredevil's lawyer status is not bad-some critics say so.
So I think that he actually wants to be lazy. If he really wants to adapt the Batman series, Warner definitely must be welcoming with both hands, and even if he is dissatisfied, he can't say anything. So although many times I was wondering why my dad had a company but did n’t take care of it, he gave it to Uncle Claude and made the movie himself, but he must admit that he was indeed the greatest director and producer in Hollywood.
If this is a bit vague, then the four best directors in the family are not fake. In addition, there are also the best actresses of moms and aunts. Even if public relations account for a lot of factors, but there is no strength No public relations is possible. And the best screenplays, both adapted and original, have been won, and are still often nominated. The best director is also. Counting from the earliest nomination of Dad, there are more than a dozen now. He has already broken the nomination record of the best director. Looking at this, if he continues to direct. Maybe there will be a best director-that is impossible.
According to Dad. Taking four is already the limit, he has broken several records, and the film school will not let him continue. However, compensation can be done elsewhere. Like the best foreign language film.
It was also about ten years ago. It was probably because I was no longer happy that nomination for Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film was nominated by "Into the Division", so my father directed a movie a few years later, a film about the changes in the era of mainland China. What's it called ... a steel piano? do not know why. After the movie was released, some sides were unsatisfactory. The critics on the mainland said that he had moved the American middle class inspirational type to the mainland, while the critics on the North American side said that he was courting the mainland government. It ’s really strange, although I do n’t understand something because of cultural differences, the inspirational feeling is in place, especially the scene where a few old workers made the piano with some powerful background music.
Interestingly, the box office of the movie is quite high on the mainland. Although the screening size in North America is small, it is also very good in proportion. Then got the best foreign language film at the Oscar. I think those critics must have very good looks, but Dad doesn't think so. He said that the film school would do this, mainly to disgusting the Chinese ... well, I don't like politics.
Anyway. I will pick up the guide tube, and it probably has nothing to do with this.
"Lily!" After entering the theater's front hall, a surprise voice passed into her ears, and then two figures flew over.
"Hi. Deva, Juliet!" I hugged my sisters and hugs. Deva was the child of Aunt Monica and Dad. Juliet was the child of Auntie Sophie and her father.
Speaking of which, I am starting to feel depressed again. I think that no one in Los Angeles, the entire United States, or the entire world is more than my sister. Remember what I said before? My dad is a playboy. I have many aunts in addition to my mother, and the woman I can call an aunt ... have had children with my dad!
There are very few people, such as Aunt Charlie. I asked her why, even if Aunt Sarah and Aif Liv insisted on not having children, eventually her father had a big belly, but Aunt Charlie always Persist in not having children. It is said that ... um ... Dad tried to get her pregnant with a broken raincoat several times, but was found out.
"If I gave birth to a boy, he might become like your father; if I gave birth to a girl, she might meet a man like your father." Aunt Charlie said so.
Really ... I really want to ask, in this case, why have you stayed with your father for so many years? Of course, when Aunt Charlie said this sentence, she definitely didn't think about it. Sometimes ... the girl can do something.
In short, my father is such a good-looking playboy. He is still unmarried, but allows many women, including his mother, to stay with him and willingly give birth to him—maybe not so willingly, but who cares? Like Aunt Rachel, she had a strange relationship with her father, and although it wasn't the strangest--I couldn't say anyway--but she gave birth to a child.
No one said anything about it, it might be a bit at first, but it disappeared later. Like the phrase that Dad often hangs around his mouth, if one thing is done to the utmost, others will not be able to say even if there is so much dissatisfaction. A like him who can keep many women around and give birth to a large number of children is indeed the first in the world.
So I have many sisters, a dozen or dozens? Oh, please, do n’t let me count. I ’m so glad that I am the eldest daughter. Otherwise, if you are caught between a lot of sisters and sisters, you will go crazy. Maybe you ask strangely what do a dozen or dozens of sisters mean, then I'll tell you ... heh, although father and many women have children, but ... they are all daughters.
This matter has been a Hollywood joke for a long time. It is ridiculous that Adrian Cowell, the unbeatable playboy, gave birth to all daughters. As for why this is the case, from a mystic perspective, God feels that he has too many women, so let his children be daughters as compensation for the world-this is just shit, I do n’t want to What bad old man does compensation.
You can never think of how bad my father can sometimes be. I remember very clearly that when I was fifteen years old, that was when I was young and impulsive, and all kinds of idealism, which led to my dissatisfaction with the environment at home. Although they get along well with Aunt Charlie, there are still many ordinary women. I always feel that my mother tolerates them to accommodate her father. So I offered to move out in protest.
Of course Dad disagrees, but it doesn't bother me. I have to know how many times I have fought with him since I was a kid-well, I admit it. Dad still spoils me. In short, I was very careful, rubbing his words to run him so fast that he couldn't speak, and you certainly wouldn't think of any method by which he would come back.
He talked about how hard it was to raise me, as if it was aggrieved. I was very calm at first, but he took out a photo. A photo that I kept in my wallet and was always with me. It was probably taken when I was a few months old. He lifted me up very small and very small. I smiled happily, and he One face ... um ... that ... um ... that's it.
I was almost crazy, oh my god, how could I have such a father! Especially at dinner. In front of many aunts and sisters ... I know, I chose this time, but ... at that moment I really wanted to jump up and take a bite at him, although I haven't done that for a long time. Of course, I didn't do that. I can do this at seven or eight years old, but it's too stupid to be fourteen or five years old, so I ended up biting my lips and trembling and staring at him fiercely for a long time before I smirked and left.
No one sympathizes with me. Even mother, because ... she thinks that should be a pride. I understand. I understand very well. I heard some stories about my father and mother from Aunt Charlie. My mother obviously thinks that what she didn't do at first made me do it. It's great. Alright, mom, I understand your mood, but ... it! In short, this matter is not left.
As I used to say when I was a kid, Dad is a big bad guy! Very big bad guy!
Let's not say this again, back to the topic. Before, it was from a mystical perspective, and from a scientific perspective, that was ... how to say, the survival time of the Y gene in the man ’s little sister-in-law is better than that The X gene is long. Although Dad's ... is said to be strong, it is often abused ... or ... Oh, so far, I really don't want to say this.
In short, my sister is more and more. Not only the close aunts have their own children, but also those who have a relationship with me, such as Alexander Ambrosio and Miranda Kerr. In addition, those in the Asian circle, Li Zi, Lin Zhiling, etc., did not fall. I do n’t know why, they always like to be independent and form a small circle. If you do n’t get along well, would n’t Aunt Yuji stay well at home?
Keke, it's none of my business, and I'm not interested in talking about it, at least their children don't make independent circles, everyone ... Get along well. In this case, it doesn't matter whether there is a boy or not. You must know that Uncle Claude did not know if it was affected or what. The first child was also a daughter. He had a son after several years, and he is only 7 years old.
The little guy is very cute, but every time my sister comes to us, he always enjoys him. On several occasions, Kelly and Alice dressed him as a little girl and pulled out. Poor Albert couldn't resist at all, and was so tearful every time that he was willing to come over to die now. The child must have left an indelible shadow in his heart.
If my dad has a boy, such encounters will be more or less, even if he is in the care of his father.
"This is your fourth work. Any thoughts, Lily?" Juliet asked with a smile.
"Can you feel anything else, just like that." I shrugged.
"Don't be so perfunctory, Lily, but we are asking you very seriously." Deva immediately answered, with a dissatisfied tone, and was a good match with Juliet.
They were pregnant at the same time and were born at the same time. The difference between them was only a few minutes. Coupled with eating and sleeping for more than ten years, they were twins more than twins. Natural feelings were extremely good, but ...
"Help, I've dealt with reporters outside, so don't let me say that again." I called bitter.
"That's right. Be considerate of your sister, let's change the subject," Dad helped me to speak, "Julie, how far has your photography progressed."
"Dad always protects her sister." Deva rolled her eyes together with Juliet. Then giggled. Only then will they call my sister.
"Deva's condition has always been good, and you can see it soon." Juliet answered immediately, and then held Deva affectionately.
Just like I did as a director, Juliet and Deva have their own careers. And as complementary as their lives are. Juliet became a photographer and now has a small reputation in the industry, but Diva is more famous. She is a model. The two of them cooperate with each other in the industry is a different landscape.
"That's great. I will definitely comment on it." Dad smirked, and Juliet immediately leaned back alertly, in general, because as long as he made this gesture, there must be nothing good.
But before he continued, a nasty voice came in: "You still have to deal with the matter before you comment, Ed!"
Then, the blonde girl, who was not much older than me, in the OL uniform appeared in front of her and glared at her father. By the way, hello to us: "Hey, Lily, Dewa, Juliet, sorry to disturb you, I can't help it."
She sighed and looked helpless. He looked very annoyed when he looked at his father, who had to appease her: "Well, Anna, I apologize. This is indeed my problem, but I have read most of the documents. Isn't it?"
This is my father's third secretary, Anna Sophia Robb, only two years younger than me. Since Aunt Ini went to Universal as an executive, she has been selected as a secretary by her father. year. Dad's secretary is actually a very training place. Women who are qualified for this position are very capable. Just like Aunt Charlie, she has been transferred to the Media Corporation as an executive two years ago. Although some of these dads may want to resign and then give way to Uncle Claude and choose more suitable factors, Aunt Charlie's ability should not be underestimated.
For the simplest example, the children in the family all have their own small circles. For example, I'm closer to Dawa, Juliet, and Mary. They can make everyone like everyone. Apart from Dad, there is only Aunt Charlie. .
Of course, it takes a price to get this job. Yes, like Aunt Charlie and Aunt Ini, you have to accompany the company to the house and then to the bed.
"It did look, but you didn't sign it! I had to drive home and bring the pile of things and come here to inform you. Don't tell me anything by phone, if you don't apply pressure in person, you won't Will care, these will be used tomorrow! "Anna said angrily, looking at him with an air of bulging.
Dad's three female secretaries are very personal. Aunt Charlie likes to be ridiculous, and sometimes the words are sharp and can not be seen directly. Aunt Yi Ni is a little proud, often misaligned, and always likes to turn corners. Anna was straightforward and often straightforward to complain and criticize. Each time her father acknowledged his mistake and refused to give up.
But no matter what, the relationship between father and them is very good, especially Aunt Charlie. Although she doesn't want to admit it, she does sometimes exceed her mother. Auntie Ini is almost a little bit closer, but the connection with her father is also very close. Those who turn around can hear her care ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Anna again, but as long as she comes here in such a rush, it means that she and her father The relationship is even stronger than many women. What they can do for their dad is their greatest common denominator.
"Okay, thank you, Anna." Dad held her waist and smiled forward. Anna, who wanted to say something, closed her mouth suddenly, frowning and looking away.
I couldn't help but rolled my eyes, didn't go to see these, and immediately chatted with Dewa them.
"I heard that Mary was going to open her own restaurant. I didn't know how many people wanted to taste the food made by the daughter of the famous King of Hollywood."
"Why do you go to the restaurant for the King of Hollywood's daughter as a chef instead of really wanting to taste Mary's cooking? She makes delicious dishes."
"Because she is indeed the daughter of the King of Hollywood, this is a fact that cannot be changed." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point (m) to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is me Maximum motivation.)
