Chapter 113: Shirley Temple
"Fredo, there are many female stars in Hollywood, why do you want to provoke her?" Johnny put away his cynical tone and became more serious than ever. "She is not someone like you and me who can provoke her."
"No, no, Johnny, you think too much. I love my life so much. I never thought about what would happen to her. I just want to see her. I have already told my family before coming here, and the godfather has no objection." .” Shen Long added.
"The godfather agrees to you meeting her?" Johnny was very surprised, and said after a moment of silence, "Well, since it is the godfather's decision, I will find a way to arrange it."
After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone, and after more than an hour, Johnny called again, "The matter has been settled, there is a reception in Hollywood tonight, Shirley Temple and her husband will appear, I will come over then Pick you up; as for how to get in touch with her, it's up to you."
Shirley Temple just married John Agar this year. Now she should be called Mrs. Agar. This failed marriage will completely ruin her career in Hollywood. She will be married to John Agar a few years later. Divorced, officially quit the film industry, and turned to develop in the political world, but Shen Long's real goal is not her, this time he just wants to meet someone through her.
In the afternoon, Johnny Fontan came to the hotel early, picked up Shen Long and went to buy clothes suitable for this occasion, changed them and went to the reception place.
Entering inside, there are handsome men and beautiful women everywhere. These people are walking around in the crowd with wine glasses. It can be seen that Johnny Fontane is very popular, and people are constantly saying hello to him.
"Look, they're over there, do you want me to help you get John Agar away?" Johnny pointed to a corner, where Shirley Temple and his wife were, oh, maybe it should be called Shirley Agar now Gal up.
"No, I'll just go there directly, you can go and play by yourself." Shen Long walked over with a glass of wine, "Mr. Aigal, Mrs. Aigal, good evening."
"Good evening, sir." Both of them nodded at the same time, but they could see that they were a little confused, who is this guy who came to say hello?
"Mr. Agar, I heard that you just came back from the battlefield? It just so happens that my younger brother Mike has just retired. Come, let us toast to the victory." Shen Long raised his glass.
"Cheers to victory." John Agar liked this topic very much, and asked after putting down his glass, "What's your brother's name? Which army did he serve in?"
"Mike Corleone, serving in the Marine Corps, is now studying at Dartmouth University." Shen Long replied.
"Oh, I saw his picture in "Life" magazine. He is an out-and-out war hero." John Agar showed respect. Mike performed well on the battlefield and won the Cross and Purple Heart Medal, also once boarded a best-selling magazine as a battle hero.
"Every soldier who enters the battlefield is a hero." Shen Long complimented, but what he thought in his heart was that Mike has such good capital and is definitely suitable for entering the political arena. Being a godfather is a bit too wasteful.
Long Shen talks to John about the battlefield, and only occasionally accosts Shirley Temple, the greatest and most famous child star in movie history, who has grown up and made Hollywood's little princess into a beautiful girl , but this did not bring her good luck, her child star image is too popular, from "Heidi", "Little Princess" to "Little Colonel", each of them has achieved great success, it is a pity Few people ask her to make movies now.
John Agar was also a not-so-successful actor before. Now he has just been demobilized and returned to the United States, and he is eager to find opportunities. He came to this meeting to get acquainted with several well-known directors and producers.
After chatting for a while, he saw a certain target appearing in front of him, and said to Shen Long apologetically, "Fredo, I'm sorry, I'm going to say hello to Mr. Marvin, and I'll be back later."
"It doesn't matter,
Do your work first! "Shen Long waved his hand indifferently, I can talk to Shirley Temple after you leave.
Shirley Temple is still sitting here. In her heyday, she had more than ten movies released a year, but now, she only has one or two movies a year. She is too lazy to do these useless efforts anymore. Her previous job has brought her a lot of income, and she can still live a comfortable life now.
Shen Long continued to chat with Shirley Temple, talking about her classic movies. People always like to look back at their glorious moments when they are unhappy. Coupled with Shen Long's ingenious speech skills, soon Won the favor of Shirley Temple.
"Fredo, can I call you that? It's always too serious to call Mr. Corleone. Of course, you can also call me Xiulan." Naturally, Shen Long had no reason to refuse, and the two began to call each other by their names .
At the moment, everyone is wandering around and focusing on socializing, no one has noticed this corner at all, John Agar is also chatting happily with a producer over there, it seems that no one will disturb him in a short time them.
So Shen Long took out a letter from her pocket and handed it to Shirley Temple, which surprised Shirley Temple, she pushed the letter back, "Sorry, Fredo, I'm married now .”
"Xiulan, this letter is not for you." Shen Long laughed dumbly, did Xiulan Temple regard this letter as a love letter? Although you look good, it's not worth my attention. If you were replaced by Audrey Hepburn, it might be about the same.
Shen Long's face became serious, "I recently got a very surprising piece of news, I think this news must be useful to that gentleman, so I heard that you will appear here today, I hope you can send this letter Pass the letter to him."
Shirley Temple also put away her smile, "I've never been involved in these matters. If you do have information he needs, then submit it to him through official channels!"
"This news is very, very important, and the official channel is not safe." Shen Long handed over the envelope again, "Also, I know that gentleman has a little unpleasantness with Harry recently, and I can also help in this regard; I hope He can give me a chance to talk to him after reading this letter."
Perhaps it was the topic about Harry that moved Shirley Temple. She took the envelope and put it in her handbag, "I will hand it over to him, but I can't make any promises to you."
"This is enough, I believe the contents inside will impress him." Shen Long nodded his thanks, his goal this time has been achieved.
