Rebirth 1912 starts with people on the Titanic

Chapter 35: Pretty Woman in the West

The woman has very soft and beautiful blonde curls, and the blonde hair of the shawl perms the big waves that were very popular in this era.

The woman was wearing a black low-cut evening dress, with a large area of snow white on her chest that made people's eyes glaze, and her figure was concave and convex, sexy and charming.

A pair of emerald-like eyes were staring at Bruce curiously.

"Hello, nice to meet you, Mr. Li!" the woman smiled as she stretched out her onion-white hand.

"Hello!" Bruce shook the other hand.

A warm tenderness came, and Bruce couldn't help but look at the woman in front of him twice.

"I beg your pardon for being abrupt, I hope it didn't disturb you, Mr. Li. My name is Mary, Mary Beckford. The woman introduced herself.

"Hello, Miss Bickford, you are so beautiful!" Bruce politely complimented.

Bruce had a strange and familiar feeling about the name, and he couldn't remember it for a while.

In any case, it is not wrong to praise a lady for her beauty.

Sure enough, Mary was very happy with Bruce's praise, and the smile on her face was even brighter and charming.

"Thank you, Mr. Lee, may I invite you to do a dance?" said Mary expectantly.

"Oh, of course, who can refuse an invitation from a beautiful lady?" Bruce lowered his glass.

Mary gently placed her little hand in Bruce's hand, and whatever he led onto the dance floor.

During the conversation, Bruce finally got to know who this beautiful woman who came to the door on her own initiative.

Mary Beck, the beginning of the 20th century of the United States, a famous actress in the silent film era.

The actress, who was born in the country of Maple Leaves, has been performing on stage since she was eight years old.

At the age of seventeen, she starred in the first silent film in her life, "HerFirstBiscuits", in which she played a ten-year-old girl.

The film was directed and shot by the famous director David Griffiths.

Although she did not become an instant hit because of this movie.

But after Mary, who has loved acting since she was a child, heard that the film industry in the United States is relatively developed, she resolutely came to the United States to develop and began to chase her film dream.

Now Mary Beck should already be a contracted actor of a film company.

Today she came with the owner of the company, Adolf Zucker, to attend the mayor's party.

This company Bruce also has not ignorance.

It is one of the eight film giants of Hollywood in the 20th century, the predecessor of Paramount, the famous actor film company.

During the conversation with Mary, Bruce learned that the first film company had appeared in Los Angeles not long ago.

Thinking of movies, Bruce can't help but think of the stronghold of the film industry that will be famous in the world in later generations - Hollywood!

But now, movies are just emerging in the United States.

Almost all movies are still in the era of silent films with no sound, no color, and no dialogue.

Both the market and the audience are still very narrow.

Therefore, the well-known base camp of the film industry in later generations - Hollywood is still in a barren mountain range.

Thinking of this, Bruce couldn't help but feel excited.

Why don't you buy Ho Leu in advance?

You must know that when the United States film enters the era of all-round development, the land price of Hollywood is every inch of land.

But the thought of his thin wallet forced Bruce to give up the crazy idea for a while.

Fortunately, there is still a long time before Hollywood develops into a film industry base, and he still has enough time to prepare.

It

is not good to get involved in the development of Hollywood too early.

If there is a

deviation between history and reality because of Bruce's premature involvement, then he will lose more than he gains.

Bruce forced the impulse in his heart, but kept the matter in his heart secretly.

"Mr. Li?".

While Bruce was thinking, Mary suddenly called out to him.

"Uh-huh...... I'm sorry, Miss Bickford, but please forgive me for being distracted. Bruce apologized.

Mary smiled and said, "Can you tell me what you were thinking just now?"

Bruce put his arms around her sensual waist and thought as he danced, "Would you be angry if I said I was just thinking about how I could have a wonderful night with Miss Bickford?"

Hearing this, Bi Kefu's face couldn't help but blush.

Soon, though, Bikov looked up unconvinced, his eyes meeting Bruce's.

She whispered in Bruce's ear in a seductive tone, "Do you think I'm going to be angry, or not, Mr. Lee!".

This is the essential difference between Western women and Eastern women.

They always show a strong sense of self-confidence in their beauty, and they don't mind showing it to men in a big way.

At the same time, they are also very open to the praise of others, and they are very happy about it.

If it were a traditional Oriental woman, it is estimated that at this time, Bruce would not get a seductive slap in exchange.

In the end, he was spat on by the other party and scolded him for being a "hooligan".

Of course, there is also a difference between Western men and Eastern men.

Oriental men are always ashamed to express their pursuit and praise of the opposite sex.

Because Eastern men always don't know how to communicate well with Western women.

Even if Bruce had been a mercenary abroad for many years in his previous life, he had been around many foreign women of all kinds.

But this nature in the bones is still difficult to change.

In the face of Mary's generosity and openness, Bruce was a little behind.

But speaking of which, isn't this lady supposed to be a very independent and assertive strong woman?

If memory serves, Mary Beck immediately set up her own film production company after becoming famous, moving from being an actress to becoming her own boss.

She is also the first movie star in history to set up her own production company.

And Mary has also collaborated with comedy master Charlie Chaplin and the great director Griffiths many times.

Produced by her film production company and then distributed by Luen Mei Pictures, it is also a small achievement.

In 1927, Mary and Douglas became the first stars to have their hands and feet branded with cement at the Chinese Theatre in Hollywood.

It stands to reason that this lady shouldn't be as casual as she seems.

Seeing that Bruce was actually a little cramped and uneasy.

Mary burst out laughing

out loud.

She is like a little girl who has gotten her favorite toy, smiling so much that she has attracted countless strange glances.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Lee...... Cluck...... You are such a ...... Very lovely gentleman!" Mary said with a repressible smile.

"Cute, isn't a good word to describe a man. Bruce said awkwardly.

"Giggle...... You started the topic, but you don't know how to respond to my response, don't you think it's cute?" Mary said with a hearty smile.

Bruce was relieved and paused a little embarrassed.

"I'm sorry, I was a little frivolous just now, please don't mind Miss Beckfort!" Bruce said dryly.

These open Western Yanmars, sometimes Bruce is really a little overwhelmed.

"You can call me Mary. Mary's eyes wandered, "Let's go back and sit down and talk." "

"That's what I want!" said Bruce.

The two of them held each other and returned to their seats again.

Mary seemed to be very happy today, and the smile on her face never disappeared.

She took a sip of the red wine on the table and said, "Mr. Li, I heard that you have only been in the United States from England for a few months. "

"About half a year. In fact, the time is not too short. Bruce smiled.

"That's a miracle, Mr. Lee. In just half a year, you have gone from an ordinary person to a millionaire in the United States. "Mary is full of yearning.

"It's just a little more lucky. Mary, you didn't come to me just to inquire about my privacy, did you?" asked Bruce.

"Giggle...... Why not? You know what, Bruce. How famous you are in the circle of ladies and ladies in Los Angeles. Every time someone talks about you, he sees a lot of young ladies with their eyes lit up. The look of spring is really indescribable. Mary joked.

Bruce laughed silently.

He had heard about this kind of thing from Handar a long time ago.

He still remembered that when Handar talked about these things, his face was full of envy and jealousy for Bruce.

"Can I know that these ladies tundish doesn't include you, Mary?" asked Bruce.

Mary's pretty face turned red again.

Then she threw another roll of the eye at Bruce.

It's like saying, "You're here again, and you've forgotten how you just failed on the dance floor?"

After the words came out, Bruce couldn't wait to slap himself a few big-eared scrapers.

Why are you so cheap?

is a vegetable and fun-loving, and the old face is really lost.

Naturally, Mary did not show weakness.

Biting his red lip lightly, he said with a blurred eye: "Of course, including! After all, how many ladies like such a young and rich handsome gentleman don't want to get close to?".

The breath is like an orchid, and the eyes are like silk.

Bruce couldn't help but scream in his heart, he couldn't stand it.

This woman really deserves to be an actress in the silent film era of famous American movies, and she is really handy in acting.

Bruce smiled wryly and raised his hands to show that he was convinced.

"Well, Mary, you win. Let's get down to business. Bruce smiled wryly

Mary rolled her eyes, then sat up straight, her expression serious.

"Bruce, as a gentleman, you should be braver. Mary said with some resentment.

"I prefer the feeling of being in the water. Bruce chuckled, "It's not quite for me to have this kind of thing." "

"Giggle...... Well, maybe you're even more fascinating. Mary propped her round chin in one hand and looked at Bruce with a smile.

"Now, can we get down to business?" Bruce asked, raising an eyebrow.

Mary sighed softly, seemingly a little disappointed that her charm had repeatedly closed herself off in front of Bruce.

"Well, in addition to wanting to get acquainted with you, a young rich man, I was also asked by our boss to ask you if you would be interested in investing in the film industry. Mary said happily, playing with her glass of wine.

"Your boss?" said Bruce curiously, "I don't know, who is your boss, and why didn't he come by himself, but tired your delicate lady?"

Mary was visibly overjoyed to hear Bruce's praise.

She covered her mouth and smiled: "Who said it wasn't? "

Bruce glared at Mary angrily.

This Yanma, since he knew that he was not as eager and bold as other Western men, began to tease himself again and again.

This makes Bruce angry and funny.

You know, he's a normal man.

The

reason why he was defeated again and again in the face of Mary's audacity was simply because he was not used to it.

That doesn't mean he's really uninterested in beauty.

If he could, Bruce really wanted to press Mary to his leg and slap her the buttocks to show her what it meant to play with fire.

Seeing that Bruce didn't speak, Mary smiled even more happily.

Hao covered his lips and snickered: "Okay, what a lovely man." My boss's name is Rudolph Zucker, and he is the owner of Los Angeles Famous Actors Film Company. "

"I see. Bruce feigned surprise.

In fact, he knew a thing or two about Rudolf Zucker and his famous actor film company.

It's just that what Bruce didn't expect was that Rudolph Zucker would suddenly hit him.

I also wanted to ask if I would like to enter the film industry.

Bruce, of course, is very willing to do this.

The

main reason why there has been no mention of this aspect before is that oil mining is relatively fast.

The second reason is that he lacks a suitable cut-in wedge.

But now ......

Bruce sank to the point that the wedge seemed to have arrived.
