A Bar in Los Angeles.
10pm.
As soon as Kyle entered the bar, his ears were invaded by the sounds of disco. Men and women were partying happily and dancing on the dance floor.
At that moment, Kyle frowned.
Kyle didn't like the bar very much.
Or to be more precise, in his previous life, there was a time when he often went to bars, and he enjoyed the feeling of being surrounded by girls and getting drunk. But he was already tired of it, and now that he had travelled through time, he had no interest in it at all.
"Honey, don't you dislike coming to places like this?" asked his girlfriend Lima, holding Kyle's arm.
Kyle nodded and said, "Yes, I don't like coming to the bar, but who asked Charlize to invite me?"
Charlize Theron?
When this name was mentioned, Lima, as his girlfriend, didn't think much about it.
But she knew that Kyle had no interest in Charlize. Of course, the reason why she followed him was because she was afraid that something like drunkenness would happen, which made her alert instantly.
Soon, Kyle and Lima walked through the crowd and, under the guidance of the waiter, came to a high-end VIP box.
"Hey, Kyle! You're finally here. Um, isn't this Lima?!"
As soon as I pushed the door and entered the box, Charlize stood up and greeted everyone enthusiastically.
"Good evening, Charlize."
Kyle and Lima responded one after another.
At this time, Kyle also discovered that in addition to Charlize, there were two men in their early 30s in the private room.
"Kyle, would you like me to introduce them to you?"
She joked.
"That's not necessary. I don't think many people in Hollywood don't know them."
Kyle looked at the two men and smiled. "Johnny Depp, Keanu Reeves, I think I know both of your names."
Indeed, Kyler certainly knew both of them.
Whether it was in a previous life or this life.
Johnny Depp, the famous Captain Jack Sparrow from Pirates of the Caribbean.
In early 2020, he, who had not been filming for a long time, repeatedly made headlines because of the scandal between him and his ex-wife, DC "Aquaman" Amber Heard. Events such as "domestic violence", "alcoholism", "beating", "abuse", "recording" and so on made Kyle and other spectators stunned and exclaimed, "your circle is messy"!
Although Johnny Depp does not play Captain Jack Sparrow today, he is still a figure in Hollywood.
He starred in many films, including "Edward Scissorhands", "Bonnie and Joon", "Ed Wood", etc., which earned him many nominations for the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor and made him famous.
"Good evening, Mr. Page!"
I have to say that Johnny Depp's attitude towards Kyle is very respectful.
Well, even a little humble!
"Oh...nice to meet you."
At first, Kyle was a little confused.
After all, in my opinion, he is a Hollywood actor who is arrogant, weird, and highly narcissistic. Well, he is not easy to get along with. But now, his attitude towards me is respectful.
"I think I understand."
"Johnny Depp is now just an actor who has been starring in arthouse films. He does not have the box office appeal that he later had. He must be very humble in front of a Hollywood boss like me."
That's right, Kyle thought about it and understood everything.
Although Johnny Depp is flamboyant and difficult to get along with, at least he knows when to advance and retreat.
At the same time.
On the other side, Keanu Reeves, who was sitting earlier, also stood up at this moment and expressed his great welcome to Kyle's arrival.
"Kyle, don't be fooled by Keanu's humble appearance.
If you had known him a few years earlier, he probably wouldn't have bothered to talk to you when you met him," Deep laughed.
"Oh? Really?"
Before Kyle opened his mouth, his girlfriend Lima showed an interested look.
Haha, gossip is women's nature!
"It seems to be so, yes."
Keanu Reeves was not annoyed, after all, Deep was a good friend. He explained: "I used to be famous at a young age, and I was arrogant and indulgent. Alcoholism and drugs were necessities of life. But...but since I experienced the death of a good friend of mine due to drugs, I decided to say goodbye to drugs."
Friends?
Died from drugs?!
Lima has a natural talent for gossip, and her eyes reveal curiosity.
However, Kyle knew something about it in his previous life.
The friend who died of drugs mentioned by Keanu is none other than River Phoenix, known as the "Hollywood Golden Boy"!
River Phoenix is indeed quite remarkable, with the title of a talented actor. At the age of 21, he was crowned the title of Best Actor at the Venice Film Festival. Well, he has another identity, that is, Phoenix's biological brother in "Joker".
"Oh, by the way, regarding Joaquin's matter, I haven't thanked you properly for allowing him to play the leading role in the movie," Keanu said suddenly.
Hearing this, Kyle waved his hand and said, "You don't have to thank me for this. Joaquin's ability to be the leading actor in Wrong Turn is entirely due to his efforts."
"I still want to thank you," Keanu emphasised.
The following time was very pleasant.
Recently, he has been busy with the scheduling of "Juno" and the acquisition of UPN TV network, which has consumed a lot of Kyler's energy. Since it is a rare opportunity to come to the bar, of course, he has to indulge himself.
While indulging himself, Kyle also often lamented the wonders of fate.
You know, in the original time and space, Charlize Theron, Keanu, and Deep were famous friends in Hollywood.
Well, they are also representatives of Hollywood's "weird" actors.
Johnny Depp, addicted to alcohol and hot-tempered, often kicked the crew during filming and missed filming, but was extremely friendly to fans, a typical example of a weird temper;
Keanu Reeves, who doesn't buy houses but likes to stay in hotels, doesn't trade stocks or invest but likes to buy art, is a typical example of peculiar behaviour;
.....
Kyle, who rarely drinks, drank too much today.
Kyle was drunk and in a state of excitement. He almost had sex with his underage girlfriend Lima, but he was well aware of the U.S. Minor Protection Act and held himself back.
When I woke up in the morning, I found myself in the room of my villa.
"Hiss~ Damn, my head hurts!"
Kyle sat up and couldn't help patting his head.
"It's all those guys' fault. Next time, I won't drink so much alcohol no matter what. Besides, the alcohol in the bar is all fake."
Well, this is the real situation.
99% of the alcohol in many bars, especially foreign alcohol, is fake, and the better ones are mixed.
Ding ding ding~~!
Just at this moment, a call came to Kyle's cell phone.
The person who called was Kyle's lawyer Paul Goodman.
Well, whenever Kyle mentions his lawyer, he always thinks of Lawyer Saul in a TV series.
"Boss, you finally answered the phone. I've called you more than ten times." An aggrieved voice reached Kyle's ears.
"Stop talking nonsense and tell me what's going on." Kyle had a terrible headache and was too lazy to talk nonsense.
Paul Goodman said aggrievedly, "Boss, you didn't forget about visiting UPN TV today, did you?"
UPN?
Upon hearing this, Kyle was instantly startled.
There is nothing much to say, Kyle forgot about it!
At that moment, Kyle did not have time to think and stood up quickly. After all, he had already promised something and could not go back on his word, otherwise, it would damage his glorious image as a boss.
