The Greatest Showman - Chapter 2060
[2024 2 Difficult choices]
“The next stage is yours, so I won’t compete with you for the focus of attention. What do you think?”
Facing Renly’s natural words, Arthur said mercilessly, “Just say it when you’re lazy, don’t whitewash peace. “Then you can see the corners of Renly’s mouth raised high, and a sly smile appeared in his eyes, expressing his acquiescence in such a way that Arthur was speechless.
However, now Arthur can also vaguely understand Andy Rogers’ concerns.
For Renly, performance is the only meaning. All his talents and energy are poured into performance, which enables him to shine on the stage, just like burning all vitality; And God is fair, instead, Renly became ordinary in other ways. This time, Renly bravely shouldered the future of Sisyphus Pictures and the Don Quixote Channel. This is already a major breakthrough. He shouldn’t have asked for more.
Otherwise…even if Sisyphus Pictures and Don Quixote were established, it would be a shame to deprive Renly of the breakthrough and advancement in acting.
Andy didn’t want that, and neither did Arthur.
So, Arthur lowered his eyes and replied without a smile, “Thank you.” With a little joke, he ended all the topics, and then turned to look at Edith, Tucao said, “What about you? Don’t say, you are here specifically for Renly, this is really too nauseous.”
Edith looked at Arthur inexplicably: Why did you suddenly shift the muzzle?
What about the good comradeship in arms?
Immediately afterwards, Renly also said, “I also don’t think this is appropriate. Although I am not very satisfied with Chris, it is not my hobby to win people’s love.”
“Renly-Hall!” Edith closed She closed her eyes and suppressed her anger. She felt that she might not be able to face these boys by herself. She needed a bottle of whisky, then opened her eyes and showed a sinister smile at Renly. , “You can try, I promise to give you a closed door, so that the invincible Renly can also taste the taste of rejection.”
“Oh? Now that you say that, I really think it’s a bit interesting.” Renly’s final voice rose slightly, and Edith’s suppressed anger rose up, “Sebastian!” It was the level of Hedong’s roar. She turned her head and looked at Arthur, “Are you sure you don’t say anything? Otherwise, that night in Edinburgh…”
“Hey, Renly! Why don’t you go back to rest first, right? The patient needs a good rest, and he will be back on the set tomorrow, and now he needs to recharge his batteries, Edith and I have disturbed you for too long, we should leave now, right?” Arthur immediately said Interrupting Edith’s words, Pi Xiaorou said without a smile.
Such a clumsy trick, let alone Renly, even Edith couldn’t stand it, and couldn’t help but help her forehead, “Arthur, fortunately you didn’t become an actor, it must be a disaster.”
“Who knows? The face paralyzed vase is so popular, if Arthur is willing to take off his shirt, he may be able to win a chance.” Renly’s serious words made it impossible to tell whether it was a joke or a sincere one. There was a strange atmosphere moving, and I wanted to laugh but couldn’t.
In the end, Edith broke the deadlock, “What if I said now, I hope Chris can have the opportunity to talk to Sisyphus
Films about future cooperation?”
on Edith.
Although “Captain America” has only been released to the second part, and the follow-up filming of “Avengers” is also unfolding one after another, Chris Evans is far from having to worry about “no job”; Under the bright and beautiful appearance, in fact, Chris is always worried about his future
after leaving Captain America, what should he do?
Chris knew that he couldn’t be Captain America all his life, and even if he wanted to, Disney wouldn’t; let alone, he wouldn’t.
This is true for all of them, including Johnny Depp, Robert Downey Jr., etc. They have to find a way out of the actor, which is also the problem faced by every superhero.
Just look at the “Harry Potter” trio.
In particular, Chris also needs to face the pressure of an actor who is making history all the time: although Renly has never put pressure on him head-on, Chris knows that the pressure of the Hall family is definitely not that easy. Edith seldom mentioned those things in London. In only a few words, Chris could still feel that Renly was also under heavy pressure at the Hall family. Then, even Renly was like this, what should he do? ?
It all made Chris even more anxious.
Edith also sees Chris’s plight, “I mean, don’t need specific cooperation projects, but to see if he can find other possibilities, what he needs now is not opportunity, but inspiration. Even if nothing is negotiated in the end, it doesn’t matter, at least he can generate more ideas.” Edith didn’t want to reach out to help Chris, just matchmaking.
But Renly caught the details keenly, “Does Chris know?” He didn’t know if Chris minded Edith’s help, but he knew Chris would mind Edith asking him for help. After all, last year at Egot’s party , he and Matthew were not able to treat Chris well.
Edith rolled his eyes helplessly, “You really should be a prophet, get a crystal ball or a tarot card or something.”
Renly shook his head gently, “Edith, this is not you. Remember How did you tell me? Chris taught you how to love, and he taught you how to be strong, and that’s something you couldn’t learn at the Halls; but if Chris is such a guy , then you won’t intervene, because you know, if necessary, Chris will at least speak to you.”
Edith scratched her hair irritably, hesitated for a moment, and finally gave up Struggling, “Okay, I admit I did it on purpose.”
What does that mean?
Arthur cast a glance at Renly, but Renly didn’t know why.
Edith glared at Arthur, “Don’t gossip.”
Arthur was completely innocent, “I don’t even have his contact information, okay? We only met once at Oscar night, It’s only once, how can I gossip? Also, why didn’t you say Renly?”
“You know it yourself.” Edith said through gritted teeth, and then ignored Arthur’s depressed expression, again. Scratching her hair, the short hair had completely turned into a chicken coop, and she could hear Renly’s voice coming, “Do you need a cigarette?”
Edith didn’t refuse, she took out a cigarette from her pocket, lit it, and took a deep breath, her irritability seemed to calm down a little, “I had a big fight with Chris, no, be strict. Said, we have argued several times, and then I had a cold war with him for three days, refusing to answer all his calls, he was simply unreasonable, so I thought, deliberately framed him.”
Arthur still didn’t understand, ” I don’t know, you told Renly that Chris wants to work with Sisyphus Pictures, what kind of revenge is this?”
“I don’t know, I don’t know either.” Edith’s mood became really irritable, She yelled directly at Arthur that Edith’s mood was really unstable today, she yelled at Renly before, and now it’s the second time she lost control, “I just think, maybe Renly can teach me a lesson. He, maybe this can blow his self-esteem and let him know how uncomfortable he will be if I do something he doesn’t want, so he shouldn’t stop me.” The
logic is indeed a bit confusing, and the cause and effect can’t be explained; it can be seen from the side. It can be seen that Edith’s thoughts are also confused now, and she has no way to sort out her thoughts.
“Do you need me to teach him a lesson now?” Renly asked directly, he didn’t even ask what Chris did.
Edith tilted her head and cast her eyes at Renly, “Are you sure it must be his fault? What if it’s mine?”
“I don’t care, I’m your brother, who is he?” Renly said plainly.
Edith couldn’t help laughing, “Brother?” Renly rarely referred to himself as “younger brother”, more often it was “We are all Hall”, today is an exception.
Renly shook his head lightly, “Don’t take an inch.”
Edith closed it when she saw it, and took another puff of her cigarette, “I don’t know, I don’t know if I want you to teach him a lesson, I just…I just… …” He let out a long breath, and Edith, who had always been calm, became a little hesitant, “I just need a little support.”
Neither Arthur nor Renly spoke.
In the silence, Edith was quietly smoking a cigarette like this, and the loneliness outlined by UU Reading www.sonicmtl.com’s profile made the air quiet.
Whether Renly, Edith, including Arthur, they all have similar loneliness and loneliness.
This may be the common denominator of living in the Hall family, but they all cover up those frailties in their own way, and they have never been exposed; it has only been carefully revealed until now.
After sorting out her thoughts a little, Edith finally calmed down, and then continued to explain the situation.
“Since last year, the situation in Turkey has always been turbulent, not to mention the complicated situation in Syria, Lebanon and Israel. Not only in Europe, but also in the United States. Recently, there have been some situations near the border, It has not been reported yet. The United Nations hopes that I can follow the Red Cross to the front line, take some photos, and start reporting.”
“As you know, there is a shortage of photographic war correspondents who are familiar with the local situation and can seize the opportunity for interviews. My experience and ability can help. I still hope to be a part of it, not on the front line, not as dangerous as I imagined, our work is relatively behind, but… but Chris disagrees, he thinks I It was suicidal and he couldn’t understand my choice.”
