Chapter 9 Persuasion

Due to Ryan's intelligence and precocious maturity, Nicole rarely directly interferes in his affairs unless necessary. For example, if he directly refused for him this time, it was the first time in history.

Harvey Weinstein did not stick to it. After all, this place is Hollywood. Anyone who lacks it can play with it. Of course, he did not give up. Before leaving, he left a sentence, "Can you contact me at any time when you change your mind."

No matter what, Nicole is his guardian. Ryan knew very well that as long as she had been opposing, there was almost no room for maneuver in this matter. He also knew very well that Nicole did this just to better protect him and allow him to have a complete childhood and be able to grow up happily.

However, I have been planning for more than three years, and I have almost put in all my time and energy for this. Now the opportunity has been delivered to me. If I miss it like this, it is really time to go to Southampton to take the Titanic.

"Ryan, what do you think?" The question was about the agent. Unlike Nicole, who was not sure what Ryan thought.

Not only did Ryan not answer, he returned to his room, took the envelope containing the manuscript, and handed it to Jinsli, "Pate, this is my latest work, and..."

He glanced at Nicole who was sitting on the other side without saying a word, and leaned into her ear and said, "Can you go back first? I want to talk to Nicole alone."

"Okay." Although I couldn't help but want to say a few words, Jinsli left after thinking about it.

The silence in the living room was restored. Neither the boy nor the girl sat opposite him wanted to speak. You looked at me and I looked at you, but the two pairs of blue eyes stared at each other's pupils, as if they were doing communication that only they understood.

"Ryan, do you really want to be an actor?" Maybe it was a few minutes or a long time later, Nicole Kidman spoke first, "Don't deny, I can feel your heart moved."

After all, they have been dependent on each other for several years. It is no surprise that Ni may have seen his inner thoughts in a short period of time. Ryan first smiled, then nodded slowly and resolutely.

There is no need to deny it, isn't it? This script was carefully selected by him, not only for himself, but also for Nicole. Since in his previous life, another Australian woman could win praise for this role at the age of twenty-six, why can't Kidman do this?

Yes, Nicole is younger than that woman and has a standard vase look, but through makeup and post-production, her appearance is completely no longer so attractive. When she plays a strong and independent single mother across ages, she can imagine the praise she receives once she succeeds.

As for failure, of course there is that possibility, but Ryan firmly believes that as long as he stands in front of Nicole, will the feelings this character wants to express still be a problem?

In some ways, Ryan is still a conscientious person. Since Nicole took him in the most difficult and darkest time and spoiled him, he naturally had to give him rewards. Perhaps he could not help her too much in other ways, and could even make trouble. However, it is still possible to push her to a higher position than her previous life in a faster way.

"Ryan, do you know, when I saw the stories you wrote, I thought you would become an excellent writer in the future. When you can speak Chinese and French fluently, I think it would be good for you to be a diplomat in the future. When you wrote your first song independently last year, I told myself that Ryan might be able to become a musician."

Nicole sighed and began to analyze for Ryan, "You are precocious, smart, and far more sensible than ordinary children. Although you are a little introverted and hardly interact with your peers, and you will cause trouble from time to time, in my heart, you have always been the best one."

"Yes, as you write more and more works, they will sooner or later be exposed to the spotlight, but that should never be the case now. You must know that actors and writers are completely different professions. Even if you just become an ordinary actor, with your achievements in writing, those journalists and paparazzi will definitely turn out everything you have in the past and put them under a magnifying glass to check them one by one. Public figures have no private life."

"Although I can't give you a complete home or a lot of care, I can at least give you a complete childhood life. Hollywood is not as simple as you think. Being famous at a young age is not a good thing."

"I understand what you mean, Nicole." Since it is an equal dialogue, Ryan certainly has the right to express his opinion. "In Hollywood, youth and adulthood often mean the beginning of *****, but here are not only Drew Barrymore, but also role models like Judy Foster. Not everyone will lose themselves in this Vanity Fair."

"Okay, I ask you, Ryan." Nicole thought for a while and asked, "Can you adapt to the pursuit of paparazzi reporters and paparazzi, face their harassment and problems without bottom line? Can you adapt to a life without privacy and lack of security? Can you handle complex interpersonal relationships well and be versatile in this circle? Can you focus on facing overwhelming criticism and scolding?"

"Maybe it can't be done completely now, but after a period of adaptation, none of these are the problems for me." Ryan seemed extremely confident. "You should know that I have enough ability and wisdom to face all this."

Although such conversations have happened many times, Nicole Kidman has an extremely strong illusion this time, she feels that she is not talking to a child or a child with independent thinking, but is having a debate with a peer.

God, I really saw the ghost. Maybe I should test Ryan’s IQ. Nicole thought subconsciously, but said, “Yes, Ryan, I have never doubted your intelligence. I even suspected that I was talking to a thirty-year-old man, but these cannot be the reason for me to let you on that fame and fortune.”

Ryan curled his lips without a trace. Of course, he would not think that Nicole was suspicious of him. Anyway, his jumpy thinking was normal in Nicole's eyes, but a slight looseness appeared in Nicole's words, so he naturally wanted to take advantage of the victory.

"Nicole, don't you think you should keep trying new things in your life, constantly breaking through yourself, and pursuing your own world and ideals?"

"Ideal? Ideals are often at the same distance from reality."

"But without ideals, what's the difference between salted fish?" Ryan didn't even think about it, and this sentence popped out of his mouth, making Nicole stunned, "What's the relationship between ideals and salted fish?"

"Not talking about this, Nicole. I know what you are most worried about, so if I encounter setbacks and failures, will you still provide me with a warm embrace like you are now?"

"certainly."

"Do you think setbacks or blows will make people like me depressed?"

"Won't."

"Do you think that after I make achievements, I will become a person who is ignorant of the rules, acts recklessly, and does not take you seriously all night, or will I become a ** boy who is drunk and drug-taking?"

"No! I never thought so." Nicole's face turned gloomy without realizing it. "God, Ryan, where did you learn these messy things from? Don't tell me it's school."

"Come on, Nicole." Ryan waved, knowing that he was a little too show-off just now. "What era is it now, TV, newspapers, and magazines are full of these things. Don't forget that the Sun you subscribed to when you were in London was almost full of gossip and scandal."

I have to say that Ryan is really good at making a fuss, and Nicole is so blocked by the words he said later that he can no longer ask.

"Okay, Nicole, these things are no big deal." Seeing Nicole's face getting darker, Ryan quickly comforted her.

"Ryan, why do I feel that I am not your sister, but you are more like my brother?" Nicole Kidman raised his head in confusion.

Isn't that? In the past and present life, I'm more than enough to be your brother. Ryan muttered in his heart and quickly changed the subject, "So, Nicole, do you agree to me in this role? The mother and children in the script have extraordinary significance to me."

In order to strengthen the persuasion, Ryan had to speak nonsense again, but Nicole was the most accomplicated. Whenever she thought of the content of the script, the strong and independent mother and the lonely and helpless boy, she would always be moved.

Perhaps the situation will not be as bad as I thought. It should be a wise choice to use such a movie to commemorate the deep friendship between myself and Ryan.

"Okay, Ryan, I agree, but..." Before she could finish her words, the excited guy rushed into Nicole's arms from the opposite side and kissed her fiercely on the fair and cold face, "I knew, I knew, Nicole, you are the best to me."

Nicole Kidman took Ryan into his arms helplessly, and the unfinished warning was still said, "Ryan, remember what you said just now. If one day you become a bad guy, I will definitely not spare you."

"Of course, of course." Ryan nodded quickly, patted his chest and promised, "In the future, Ryan Jenkins will definitely be a good young man!"
