Chapter 895: Trick a security supervisor into coming
"There are no plans. As I said before, Kim has one year left to go to college. I just want to spend more time with her during this year. And I'm not good at dealing with business matters."
Brian is actually not too old, he is only in his early 50s, but he probably experienced harsh environments when he was young, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes and forehead are very obvious.
Compared with the arrogant old CIA Joe Mason and the relatively cheerful bald Frank, Brian has a gloomier temperament and an extremely low-key acting style. He is the type that cannot be noticed at first glance when thrown into the crowd.
Such a person is most suitable for two professions, as a killer or as a bodyguard for important people. Jack estimates that he should be good at both jobs.
"What about one year from now? Enjoying life on the beach in Los Angeles? I know the pensions in your industry should be generous, but is it too early for you?"
Jack said, pointing to Joan Jett who was singing "I Hate Myself For Loving You" on stage, "Just like this rock queen, she is over 60 this year, right? But she can still contribute such passionate rock music. "
Being able to enjoy celebrity performances backstage through the side passage is probably one of the few benefits of this job. Jack also listens to music, but has no interest in those singers and celebrities.
Joan Jett, the Queen of Rock and Roll, is one of the few rock stars whose names he can remember. This grandmother is an absolute legend. In the 1970s and 1980s, she single-handedly dominated the rock circle that was absolutely dominated by men. He carved his own niche and influenced entire generations.
Perhaps many Chinese people will be unfamiliar with the name Joan Jett, but in fact, most people should have heard the song "I Hate My Infatuation" sung by Uncle Dehua.
"You can form a team first. The cooperation between Laila and Shangri-La will deepen day by day, and there will be more and more situations like today that you alone cannot handle.
You said you wanted to be with your daughter Kim, but what about Laila? Jack asked loudly while shaking his legs to the rhythm.
Seeing the complicated expression on Brian's face, someone secretly smiled in triumph.
He had seen before that this old guy not only regarded Laila as his employer, but also doted on him as his daughter. Even when he looked at Red, there was a hint of father-in-law's scrutiny in his eyes.
Jack continued to make conditions, "And didn't you say that your daughter Kim wants to be a star? You and Lila should have seen a lot of bad things in the entertainment industry. Do you really trust her to wallow in the quagmire alone?
You should also be aware of our style of doing things. ‘Shangri-La’ cannot guarantee that it will definitely make your daughter famous, but it can at least keep her away from drug addicts and unspoken rules. "
"What do I need to do?" Perhaps because he thought of something from Jack's words, Brian's cheeks twitched involuntarily.
Jack chuckled, knowing that he had been basically convinced, "You don't have to worry about business matters, just be responsible for managing the security team, just do what you like."
"I will seriously consider it, boss."
Hearing that Brian had even changed his title, Jack was overjoyed and waved his hands repeatedly.
"Call me Jack, Chris is the boss. I will finalize this matter with him as soon as possible. You can tell your daughter the good news now, and Chris will arrange a suitable agent and necessary training courses for her."
He has no worries about whether Brian's daughter has the talent to become a star. The original character is Maggie Grace, who has played important roles in the American TV series "Lost" and "The Twilight Saga."
The most impressive thing is probably that she became the heroine in the movie "Space One", and she is quite good-looking.
Seeing Brian change his gloomy expression and excitedly pick up his phone and walk to the lounge, Jack's lips curled up into a smile, and he secretly sighed in his heart, how pitiful parents in the world are.
The performance on the stage is still going on. Many big-name singers have come today. There are tens of thousands of people in the audience. Laila has never released an album before singing. She is just here as a guest to support the performance and will not stay full. The whole concert.
At this time, there was a small commotion backstage. Jack thought Laila was leaving, but when he looked around, he saw two familiar people.
"Casel, Alexis, here."
Seeing Jack, the great writer showed surprise on his face, and walked toward him with his arms around his daughter and another girl who looked familiar.
"Why are you (you) here?" The two said in unison.
"I'm here to serve as a bodyguard, how about you?" Jack said concisely.
Cassell curled his lips and looked a little disappointed, "Alexis and her new friends wanted to ask the rock queen and the female star Leila for an autograph, so I took them backstage."
Jack knew what this guy was disappointed in. Most likely, he thought that a murder had occurred at the scene when he saw him. This detective's addiction had relapsed.
He said hello to Alexis, then looked at the slightly older girl next to her, looking more and more familiar, "Alexis, so who is your new friend?"
"Kim Mills, the stepdaughter of oil tycoon Stewart, was brought to New York by her mother for a visit."
Before Cassel finished speaking, a surprised exclamation came from the side. Brian, who was holding his cell phone and frowning, walked out of the lounge and hugged the girl next to Alexis.
"Kim!"
"dad!"
"Well?"
Looking at the father and daughter embracing each other, Cassel swallowed his words and poked Jack secretly, "What's going on?"
Jack didn't expect it to be so coincidental. He just talked to Brian about his daughter, and then he appeared so magically.
After introducing each other, they figured out what was going on. It was probably that Cassel, who had a wide range of friends, had an oil tycoon friend named Stewart.
This Stewart married Brian's ex-wife, and Brian's daughter Kim now lives with her mother, becoming Stewart's stepdaughter.
Kim knew that her biological father had been working as a bodyguard for the "big star" Leila. This time, she came out to play, so she pestered her mother to come to New York to find her biological father and see the New York Fashion Week.
Then Stewart asked his friend in New York, the great writer Cassel, to take care of his wife and stepdaughter, because he happened to have a daughter, Alexis, who was about the same age as his stepdaughter.
Even though Jack had long been accustomed to this messy world of self-interpretation in film and television, he still felt a little incredible.
I was thinking about whether I should turn around and hint to Brian that he should never agree if his daughter wanted to go to Paris, France or not, or take Alexis with him when I take her there.
