Chapter 460: Take precautions before they happen

"Thank you." Su Lingxi accepted the gift calmly, "I will use it well after learning it."

On Kevin Cowan's birthday in the past few years, she gave him expensive birthday gifts every year. Even though she had no such intentions towards him, it did not affect her happiness in receiving the gifts at all.

Kevin felt a little disappointed as he watched her casually give the gift to Kelly and put it away.

He didn't think that the gift he carefully selected was inferior to the roses given by the Asian man last time.

But the other party didn't seem to think so.

"Can I ask you to dance?"

"Of course." Su Lingxi agreed happily.

She has been exercising regularly for many years and has good physical strength. She can dance a tango without getting red in the face or out of breath.

But unfortunately, her remaining time is basically booked by Greta Mirren.

Kevin expressed his understanding very gentlemanly.

Nicole is no longer the Asian newcomer who was ignored when she first came to Hollywood. An art film that created a box office miracle and the thriving Sunrise Films Company are enough to make her a leader among Hollywood A-listers.

Take tonight's party for example - he dared to conclude that this would be the most lively birthday party in the second half of this year - even Jason Weir, who had never had much contact with them, showed up in person to support her, so one could imagine how excited the media would be.

"Honestly, I didn't expect you could even seduce old Martin's favorite leading man." Greta said with a smile as she followed Su Lingxi upstairs, "He is the Hollywood rising star that old Martin is most optimistic about - I can totally imagine that tomorrow's news will focus on this point."

"You mean Chris?" Su Lingxi shrugged and continued walking forward. "His acting skills are very good, but unfortunately I don't have any projects with male characters as the main line, otherwise I would definitely ask him to be the male lead instead of just a small cameo."

Christian Nolan made his debut at the age of 18. His first work was the crime film "Insatiable" directed by David Knott. The film's box office performance was average, but the role of a wealthy and playboy played by Christian became a small hit due to his good looks.

It was also because of this role that he unexpectedly won the favor of Martin Kubrick and became the leading actor of "The Island".

Although the word of mouth after the release of "The Island" was not very good, it did not affect Martin's optimism about him - according to the latest gossip, Christian's next movie will be the biographical film "The Borgias" directed by Martin himself, and he will play the only male protagonist Cesare Borgia, the notorious "Poison Duke" in Western history.

Just by listening to the name, you can tell that this is definitely a movie with a male protagonist.

No wonder even Joey jokingly called him "Martin's new favorite."

"It's no use saying nice things to me. You have to say them to Martin." Greta shrugged, imitating her. "You know, I'm past the age where I'm interested in pretty boys. Men are more attractive when they are mature and stable, aren't they?"

"Maybe." Su Lingxi vaguely passed over the topic and raised her hand to push open the door of the home theater. "I think we need to talk about something far more important than this."

"Ah," Greta snapped her fingers quickly, "You mean—you want to be involved in the production of The Veil?"

"Don't be so polite, dear. It's our honor that you are willing to join us with investment." She said with a smile, her tone very sincere.

"I'm glad that we can reach a consensus on this matter." Su Lingxi blinked her big eyes, "But I want to talk to you about the casting issue - to be precise, some news about Henry Wayne."

Henry Wayne, a new actor from Broadway, recently stood out from two consecutive auditions and was selected by Greta as the leading actor in "The Veil", playing the role of the authoritative psychologist Luther in the film.

"Don't you think he's good enough to play the role of Luther?" When talking about business, Greta's smile faded a little.

Su Lingxi closed the door with her backhand. "No, his acting skills are certainly impeccable, but this boy's luck is really not that good."

"what do you mean?"

"Jason Weir met him at Exchange LA last night." Su Lingxi said briefly, "According to his description, Henry's condition at the time was very much like he had taken heroin, or some other addictive drug."

Exchange LA is a very popular nightclub in downtown Los Angeles. Every night, many electronic music lovers and DJs gather there to party. The rave parties every weekend are so lively that they can almost light up the entire Los Angeles night.

However, Su Lingxi didn't expect that Jason Weir was still so keen on going to nightclubs at this age, and she didn't expect that he would take the initiative to use this information to curry favor with her.

Greta was stunned when she heard this, and then her face changed instantly, "Henry Wayne took heroin? Johnson, are you sure you didn't see it wrong? He is just an unknown country boy, how could he--"

"He was certainly not your average country boy, not from the moment he auditioned."

In Hollywood, news like this always spreads extremely quickly - second only to sex scandals.

Perhaps a month ago, Henry Wayne was just a small figure who came to Hollywood from Broadway to pursue his dreams, but since he signed that performance contract, in the eyes of many people, he has become a future big man, a Hollywood star worthy of their efforts to please.

"He's fucking crazy!" Greta's face flushed with anger. "Is his mind full of shit? There's only less than two weeks left before the filming starts. Does he want to drag our entire crew down with him?"

"Not necessarily. Maybe he was just having so much fun that he didn't pay much attention. Maybe he was already used to things with added ingredients when he was on Broadway." Su Lingxi's reaction was a little calmer than hers. "In any case, now we have to find a way to get his hair, and then throw the test report in the face of his hateful agent - get them both out of here."

There are countless drug addicts in Los Angeles, but Su Lingxi will never allow such people to appear in the crew she is in charge of.

This is her bottom line, and it is also a necessary measure to prevent problems before they happen. For Hollywood stars, taking drugs is a taboo. It will not only ruin their public image, but also affect their performance and even the public opinion they receive after the movie is released.

Neither she nor Greta could afford to take the risk of that possibility.
