Chapter 118 Los Angeles' Top Party! A Young and Inexperienced Charlize Theron!
After acquiring the magician's skills, Lin Tian immediately abandoned his previous clarity and foolishness, once again transforming into a mood-setter. After quickly smoothing over the awkwardness with a few words, he steered the conversation towards Kobe.
"Shaq, come meet your great partner for next season! Jerry and Earvin are very confident and excited about your partnership!" Lin Tian gestured towards Kobe, drawing O'Neal's attention to Kobe, who was still practicing nearby.
"This kid seems really boring! Does he go to nightclubs? Does he like rap? Does he know how to pick up girls? Besides basketball, does he not have any other hobbies?" O'Neal felt a bit disgusted with Kobe when he saw that Kobe had been practicing basketball non-stop since they came in, and that he was practicing the most boring and tedious basic skills like crossover dribbling.
This kid, he just doesn't seem to fit my vibe at all!
My team, Shaq's team, doesn't really need guys who are this focused and work this hard!
That would make me seem lazy!
"Kobe, Kobe! Come on, meet Shaq. You two will be teammates next season!" Jason called out in that direction.
It wasn't until then that Kobe finally came over.
"Shaq, hello!" Kobe said nothing more than a dry greeting.
"Kobe, I remember you were just a high school student? Hahaha, don't worry, when the new season comes, Shaq will protect you! He won't let anyone bully you. With me here, you can just focus on playing basketball!" After his initial annoyance, O'Neal quickly got into the swing of things, patting Kobe on the shoulder to show that he was there for him!
Kobe seemed a little uncomfortable with Shaq's enthusiasm. After giving a perfunctory greeting, he pulled Lin Tian aside again and said, "Lin, I think I've mastered your crossover move. Let's play one-on-one. This time, I'm going to shake you down!"
"I've told you so many times, you can't possibly shake me off, not in this lifetime." Lin Tian shrugged helplessly, greeted O'Neal and the others, then turned and went to play basketball with Kobe on the sidelines. "You're too slow. Trying to shake someone off with that is just wishful thinking!"
"I can't match your and Allen's speed," Kobe said confidently, "so I've focused on range and rhythm! My wingspan is longer than yours two short guys, so I can do super-wide movements that you two can only dream of, like this..."
"Snapped!"
Kobe had barely finished speaking when he had only completed half of his action...
Lin Tian suddenly lunged out and intercepted the ball!
"That's it? You think you can fool me with this trick? Is it because this trick is so bad that I laughed until my stomach hurt, and I ended up sitting on the ground clutching my stomach laughing so hard I fell over?"
"Damn it! I wasn't ready! Let's do it again!" Kobe bit his lower lip, lowered his center of gravity, and was ready to go again with Lin Tian!
It was still the starting stance of an offensive step, and then Kobe once again pulled the ball very high, then swayed his whole body from side to side in coordination with the change of the basketball. It has to be said that Kobe's talent was truly amazing! This move was executed very well, and even after entering the league, this move could still fool many people!
But...
Lin Tian is clearly not on this list.
"Snapped!"
For the second time in a row, Kobe was caught out by Lin Tian while making a crossover!
The scooping was incredibly clean, efficient, and precise.
"Where's the ball, Kobe? Where's the ball? With your dribbling skills, I could go to kindergarten and grab ten kids who dribble better than you with my eyes closed!"
"Impossible! How could this be!"
Kobe's eyes widened in disbelief as he received the basketball for the third time in a row and continued!
"Maybe! Why not? I can totally crush you!"
While provoking Kobe, Lin Tian quickly inbounded the ball again, lowering his center of gravity to defend Kobe.
This time, Lin Tian failed to steal the ball from Kobe, but he moved his feet in advance, blocking Kobe's path to the basket, then used his body to block Kobe, and then attacked from Kobe's side again.
"Snapped!"
They intercepted the ball again!
"Kobe, your dribbling is terrible! I was a much better dribbler than you when I was three!"
……
On the sidelines, O'Neal watched as Lin Tian repeatedly either stole the ball directly, blocked Kobe's path to the basket, or even if Kobe did get past him, he would immediately turn around and poke the ball away from Kobe's hands.
"How is this possible?! Can Lin see the future? How come he can predict Kobe's offensive route every time and defend against it every time?" After Kobe's offensive attempts were thwarted by Lin Tian 10 times in a row, O'Neal couldn't hold back anymore.
They're both NBA players, how could there be such a big difference between two people?
"Why not?" Magic Johnson sighed. "In this matchup, I can't tell if Lin was too cunning or Kobe was too stubborn!"
"Yeah, Shaq, didn't you notice how weird Lin's defensive positioning was? He basically left half of Kobe's side open, only guarding Kobe's left side." West also noticed the trick between the two and said with a wry smile, "Kobe got played by Lin! I just wonder when Kobe will realize it."
"What happened? How did Kobe get tricked? All I saw was Lin stealing the ball again and again!" O'Neal was a little confused. The two people next to him weren't saying a word!
"Shaq, if you're on defense and you know exactly how your opponent will attack—you know exactly from what angle, from what area, with what footwork, how they'll fake it out—can you stop every single ball they play?"
"No problem! We all know his offensive style, and he still wants to score over my head?" As he said this, O'Neal suddenly realized something and looked at the court. Sure enough, Kobe was trying to get past Lin Tian again with almost the exact same move!
But Lin Tian once again guarded the path that Kobe would inevitably take when he changed direction. This time he did not directly steal the ball, but Lin Tian used his body to separate the distance between Kobe and the basketball. So the basketball happily rolled out of the baseline by itself, while Kobe was firmly blocked in front of Lin Tian. He could get the basketball as long as he got around Lin Tian, but he just couldn't do it!
"Lin's defense was so targeted, that guy is a real bastard!" O'Neal shook his head and said, "He knew Kobe was going to use this move to get past him, so he simply gave up defending against all other moves Kobe might make, and focused on blocking Kobe's inevitable path by targeting this change of direction."
"As long as Kobe reacts, he can dribble and accelerate, easily getting past Lin Yibu!"
"That's how Lin defended, and he shut down Kobe more than ten times in a row," West said. "Kobe really didn't notice any weaknesses in Lin's defense, and he just kept going and attacked Lin one after another."
"No, I think Kobe figured it out." Magic Johnson shook his head and said, "Kobe must have noticed Lin's targeted defense. I've practiced with him for so long, I know how high Kobe's basketball IQ is, and I know how great his offensive instincts are! Otherwise, I wouldn't like him so much."
"But Kobe's problem is that once he gets really into the zone, or gets into his rhythm, he's the kind of guy who'll fight tooth and nail! If he were even stronger or had a better touch, that personality of his could absolutely make him one of the league's top scorers and most terrifying finishers!"
"But if he doesn't have a good shooting night, or if his opponents know what he's going to do and defend against his moves, then he might become an inefficient one-on-one player who gives all Los Angeles fans nightmares."
"But it must be said that all the top scorers and the greatest talents in history have had moments of being meticulous and stubborn! Only this kind of obsessive-compulsive person can possibly stand at the very top of the NBA!"
Magic Johnson's analysis revealed the problem that plagued Kobe throughout his entire career.
Was Kobe stronger when he played more strategically?
Or was Kobe, who relentlessly pursued his own ideas and constantly disrupted his opponents' nerves, stronger?
This is a question that even Kobe himself probably couldn't answer.
But for 18-year-old Kobe, it didn't matter which version of himself was stronger. What mattered was that he wanted to teach Lin Tian a lesson today! He wanted to use this move to completely defeat Lin Tian and prove that he was no worse than anyone else!
Moreover, you must change direction from right to left and then forcefully accelerate to get past Lin Tian!
With even the slightest change, Kobe's victory was hardly honorable!
Today, I refuse to believe that this move won't work even once!
At 18, Kobe didn't have many tricks up his sleeve. He just went after Lin Tian, even though it was stupid and unnecessary. He just wanted to do it!
Few people could understand this almost foolish stubbornness, nor could they understand who Kobe was competing with, but in any case, Kobe himself enjoyed it and kept challenging himself!
Kobe, who was putting all his strength into it, lowered his center of gravity once again, and he was going to use this move again!
then……
It had absolutely no effect!
Lin Tian's defensive positioning was already a bit excessive; he stood directly to Kobe's side, completely ignoring Kobe's right side.
Anyway, Kobe will definitely use a sharp crossover and then break through from this side! He just needs to wait!
To everyone's surprise, the more Lin Tian defended and targeted Kobe, the more enraged he became! He was now gritting his teeth, his whole body tense, ready to use a sharp change of direction to get past Lin Tian and then deliver a thunderous dunk!
Lin Tian did this because he knew Kobe couldn't handle the stimulation and was definitely going all out, using this move to try and decide the outcome. In this situation, he couldn't be too relaxed when defending against him!
After Kobe's offense was blocked by Lin Tian nearly 20 times for various reasons, Magic Johnson finally couldn't stand it anymore!
Because if the game continued, Kobe would really be driven to despair!
"Kobe, take a break and think about the tactics. The gap between you and Lin isn't actually that big!" He decided to comfort Kobe to prevent him from developing any psychological trauma from Lin Tian's beating.
"No rest! I'm fine! I'm going to use this move to beat him, I refuse to believe I can't get past Lin even once today!"
"You can't get past me even once! Every time you try, I'll cut you off!" Facing Kobe, who had already jumped into the trap he had dug, Lin Tian became increasingly arrogant.
Today, it might just be a double yolk egg!
Judging from Kobe's appearance, he's not far from a complete emotional breakdown!
As Lin Tian repeatedly blocked Kobe's shots, he kept spewing trash talk, driving Kobe to the brink of despair. Even the tenacious and competitive Kobe, after countless times managing to squeeze past Lin Tian only to be physically blocked from advancing into the paint, finally broke down completely when Lin Tian stole the ball from him.
"FUXX!" After cursing, Kobe angrily kicked the ball into the air, and with a "bang," the basketball hit a lamp precisely, smashing the light bulb.
A small shard of glass fell from the sky. Luckily, Kobe's kick wasn't straight up and down, and it didn't hit the light fixture on his head, otherwise he would have been seriously injured.
Seeing that one of the light bulbs had been kicked and broken, Lin Tian was extremely excited!
Today is indeed a good day!
"Kobe Bryant's emotions fluctuated, and he lost the permanent skill: Black Mighty LV1 (0/2000)."
"Little Flying Man LV1: Increases the host's shooting accuracy by 10% when driving to the basket for a reverse layup or a baseline layup!"
Wow! Kobe's backboard aerial dance move!
Looking at the newly revealed skill, Lin Tian expressed his satisfaction!
Although it's not a "signature" skill like Magic Johnson's that requires 3000 experience points to level up, it's still one of Kobe's signature skills!
During Kobe's prime, he would have one or two incredibly spectacular reverse layups on the baseline almost every game, and the number of victims and background figures who fell victim to his move was countless!
Lin Tian could easily recall Garnett being dunked on from the baseline, the Spurs being outmaneuvered by four players in mid-air by Kobe's difficult layup, and of course, the forced shot after a double layup against the Magic after getting past Howard in mid-air.
Absolutely a steal!
Once I have enough experience points, the first thing I'll do is upgrade this skill to LV2 and combine it with Jordan's aerial dance moves. Then, won't I, Lin, become the league's number one aerial performance artist?
"Alright Kobe, stop playing." After getting the good stuff, Lin Tian immediately said that he should stop while he was ahead.
Otherwise, if they keep playing like this, Kobe might really become withdrawn.
"I know you'll only use this one move. Not to mention you, even if it were Michael, I could lock him down if I knew he only used this one move to attack!" Lin Tian patted Kobe on the shoulder, indicating that they would take it slow and talk about it next time.
"If Michael can't do it, why can't I?" Kobe glanced sideways at Lin Tian and Magic Johnson before saying, "Are you guys going to a nightclub? You guys go ahead. I need to practice a bit more. I have to practice this move until even if someone knows I'm going to do it, they still can't stop me."
"Kobe!" Magic Johnson frowned, genuinely afraid Kobe would go to extremes. He opened his mouth and said, "Today we're not going to a nightclub, we're going to the boss's villa. There's a party there, lots of Hollywood stars will be there! I heard you're a big fan of Schwarzenegger? He'll be there too! How about it, come join us for a bit and relax!"
"No need, Erwin, I want to practice a little longer." After Kobe finished speaking, he picked up the ball and walked back to the corner to continue his tedious and repetitive dribbling practice.
"This kid is a madman." O'Neal shook his head.
He has an innate aversion to people like Kobe who train like crazy and like to torture themselves.
I, Mr. Shaq, despise these kinds of workaholics and lazy bums the most!
"But maybe it's precisely because he's a madman that he'll have the potential to create his own legend in the NBA." West, however, looked at Kobe, who was training like a maniac, with admiration on his face and said, "Erwin, I won't go to the party tonight. I'll stay here and chat with Kobe to see if I can help him refine his technique."
"Lin, what about you? Are you going to continue training or go to the party?" The magician knew that his old partner and new junior were both the type to keep their word, so he didn't try to persuade them. Instead, he asked Lin Tian.
He had been working on this gathering for a long time, and it included various Hollywood stars, music festival performers, players from other Los Angeles teams, and other celebrities...
The magician wanted to use this glitz and glamour of the night to tell Lin Tian: Come to Los Angeles! Los Angeles has everything that young people like!
What if Lin Tian gets provoked by Kobe and doesn't go either... then all his preparations will have been for nothing.
Are there any beautiful women? Are there many beautiful women?
Seeing the magician nod quickly, Lin Tian showed no reluctance to leave the boring court and quickly nodded, saying, "Then I'll go take a shower and change. Let's hurry up and get there before we're too late and all the pretty girls are taken."
"Should I ask Kobe again? See if he'll go?" O'Neal thought for a moment and decided to play the role of the team's new leader.
"If he's not going, don't waste your breath, Shaq. Let's go have some fun!" Lin Tian said to O'Neal while taking off his clothes. "With that kid's temper, even if Schwarzenegger were there, even if Schwarzenegger's wife and daughter were there, he wouldn't go."
O'Neal still wanted to invite Kobe, after all, according to Magic Johnson's description, this was the first time he had ever attended a party of this scale! Orlando doesn't have anything like this.
So, the stubborn O'Neal went to persuade Kobe to stop training. Therefore, when Lin Tian came out of the locker room after showering and changing, he saw O'Neal's sour face.
"That bastard, he actually told me to get lost?" O'Neal said indignantly, "What rookie who's not even 18 years old dares to talk to the team's leader like that? I've never seen such an arrogant guy in my life!"
Is this considered arrogant?
Lin Tian remarked, "O'Neal, you've never seen anything like this before."
Two years later, when Kobe has fully developed his skills and can make Malone look like a fool, that's when he'll be truly arrogant.
But that's for later fun. Right now, Lin Tian is going to do what he always does whenever he arrives in a new city, and it's also what he loves to do the most!
Let's do it... um, experience the different customs and culture of each city and the enthusiastic girls, fill the void in their lives with a wonderful lesson, use our hearts to untie the shackles on them, let them see their true and straightforward selves, and then have a direct dialogue between souls, so that their souls can be sublimated!
Lin Tian felt that he was a living bodhisattva who spread love to the world!
How amazing!
Jerry Buss's villa is located in Beverly Hills, the most upscale and expensive area in Los Angeles, which is a gathering place for celebrities and stars from all over the United States and even the world.
Some say that in Beverly Hills, if you close your eyes and reach out to touch 10 people, at least 4 will be celebrities, 2 will be directors, 1 will be a producer, and the remaining 3 will all be paparazzi.
The concentration of celebrities in this area is evident.
As Lin Tian, O'Neal, and Magic Johnson walked into the villa side by side, Bass, who had clearly been informed beforehand, was wearing an open nightgown and his signature large sunglasses. He held a bottle of champagne in each of his outstretched arms and excitedly exclaimed:
Welcome to Los Angeles, my friends!
"Now, show time!"
With a shout from Bass, deafening music and frenzied cheers and shouts erupted inside the villa, and the entire villa was instantly illuminated!
It must be said that Los Angeles, known as the entertainment capital of the world, truly has its unique charm!
Although Old Buss's moves were both cringeworthy and embarrassing, they were undeniably exciting!
Without much introduction or any process, Lin Tian and O'Neal instantly blended into the atmosphere of the party!
As for the magician, well, this guy is very self-aware. After greeting the people he knew in the arena, he left. No one would really welcome him in a place like this; everyone was afraid!
Los Angeles in August is hot, exciting, and crazy!
Everywhere you look, there are bikini-clad models walking around, and Hollywood stars drinking and chatting. Lin Tian even saw several men in their 5s and 60s, each with their arms around two hot women, chatting casually.
Lin Tian recognized more than a dozen celebrities at the scene! Top stars like Schwarzenegger and rising stars like Johnny Depp, Nicolas Cage who hadn't yet flopped, and of course, veteran heartthrobs like Pierce Brosnan and George Clooney!
In addition to these white movie stars, Lin Tian also saw black movie star Denzel Washington and several well-known West Coast rappers.
This party truly brought together top figures from all walks of life, all circles, and all ages!
However, Lin Tian did not linger around those celebrities and stars; that was not his domain!
Lin Tian turned around and plunged into the group of young models!
Compared to male celebrities, producers, and directors, Lin Tian prefers to find his sense of presence among women!
Amidst the passionate interactions, Lin Tian noticed that on the other side of the swimming pool, there was a guy surrounded by just as many beautiful girls as he was surrounded by!
As expected of Los Angeles!
Surprisingly, even at a random party, you can find someone whose charm can rival that of my Lord Lin.
With a sense of competition, Lin Tian plunged into the water, eliciting screams from the girls around him. When Lin Tian resurfaced, he was standing next to the guy surrounded by the girls.
With near-perfect facial features and casually styled shoulder-length hair draped over his forehead, he's definitely a top-tier handsome guy!
Lin Tian recognized this handsome guy at a glance.
This is Leonardo DiCaprio before he gained weight and developed a fuller jawline!
Leonardo DiCaprio, Hollywood's most devoted and faithful lover, has only ever loved blonde, blue-eyed, long-legged, busty models under the age of 25!
Only Leonardo DiCaprio can rival my Mr. Lin in terms of looks!
Leonardo DiCaprio clearly noticed Lin Tian as well, and smiled as he extended his hand to him, saying, "Hi, I've watched your games, Lin, I'm Leonardo!"
Lin Tian also extended his hand and shook hands with Leonardo DiCaprio, saying, "I've seen your movies too! I heard you're going to be in James Cameron's new movie?"
"Damn it! FUXX!" Upon hearing this, Leonardo DiCaprio immediately cursed and quickly climbed out of the pool, looking at Lin Tian apologetically, "Sorry Lin, I forgot that James asked me to go with him to meet some producers and executives of the production company."
"We need to get some investment. Oh, I almost forgot, let's talk next time," Little Li said as he ran quickly into the living room.
Watching his retreating figure, Lin Tian nodded.
Well, in terms of looks, he's a tiny bit better than me, but when it comes to physique, I beat him to a pulp!
Victory!
As soon as Leonardo DiCaprio left, Lin Tian immediately became the sole focus of the entire pool, with a large number of girls screaming and swimming towards him.
After all, truly famous actresses would never come to an event like tonight. Most of the people here are men looking for some fun, and girls hoping to take advantage of this opportunity to be noticed by those in power and rise to the top.
For the girls, tonight's occasion certainly presents opportunities, but it's also fraught with traps. Some are scoundrels who will turn their backs on you after you've done your bidding, others are scoundrels who make empty promises and then immediately deny saying they never did, and there will even be some guys who will try every means to sneak in just to take advantage of the girls.
Therefore, compared to those elusive, hard-to-find opportunities and those greasy old men, people like Lin Tian and Xiao Lizi, who are undeniably handsome and have top-tier looks, are actually their real targets.
What if it's true love? What if the umbrella leaks? What if they're truly loyal and devoted to each other?
Even if he had nothing, he'd still be a jerk; at least he's handsome! After one night, it's really hard to say who really lost out and who really benefited!
Lin Tian was well aware of the girls' thoughts and enthusiasm. He said, "You can leave Little Li alone! He's still a child! If there's anything, come at me! I can handle it!"
"Hey girls, just swimming and drinking is really boring, how about we do something else?"
"What are we playing?" The current situation is that a group of girls have Lin Tian surrounded in the middle, trying to find ways for Lin Tian to take advantage of them.
Even Lin Tian was starting to feel the strain.
After all, girls can touch me and rub against me all they want, but with so many people around, you can't just pull down my pants!
So he had to come up with something creative to stop the girls from going crazy. At the very least, he had to wait until there was no one around and the door was closed before they could go crazy like that again.
"Water guns! Are there any water guns here? Let's have a water fight!" The appearance of Little Li just now reminded Lin Tian of Little Li's favorite thing.
From Xiao Li Zi's photos, Lin Tian could feel his heartfelt love for water guns and water fights, and the joy that came from his soul!
After the waiter brought out a bunch of water guns from who-knows-where, the atmosphere at the party reached another level. Everyone was in a frenzy, and after drinking various alcoholic beverages, the atmosphere became even more ambiguous.
Finally, it was O'Neal who made Lin Tian feel a bit tired, climb out of the pool and find a corner to rest.
"Watch my super depth charge!" With a roar, O'Neal leaped from the 3-meter-high platform, splashing half the water out of the pool. After Lin Tian felt the water level in the pool drop by at least 10 centimeters, he decided to stay away from the fat man.
Encouraged and shouted by a crowd, O'Neal climbed back onto the platform, ready to try again.
slip away!
Feeling a bit tired, Lin Tian staggered along until he finally found a bench in a corner of the villa's back garden, where he comfortably sat down.
Take a break and be quiet for a while, then find two goals to elevate your soul together!
Lin Tian had just spotted a pair of twins with fiery red hair and quirky personalities who loved to play pranks. After confirming that their surname wasn't Welles, Lin Tian decided that he would teach the twins a lesson tonight and let them know some of the wickedness of human nature.
"Hello...?" a pleasant female voice came from behind.
"There's no one here, you can sit down." Lin Tian looked up and saw a beautiful, sexy girl with a stunning figure. But tonight, there was no shortage of girls like that. He didn't look closely, mainly because he was a bit tired and in a state of post-coital bliss.
Moreover, Lin Tian had already been hit on countless times tonight, so he was somewhat immune to it by now.
"Excuse me, are you a movie star? What movies have you acted in?" the girl's voice continued.
Wow! Here it comes! The "pretend to be an innocent, naive bunny" approach to striking up a conversation!
How about we exchange a few blows?
Lin Tian turned around and looked at the girl. This was the first time he had really taken a good look at her.
She wasn't wearing the sexy three-piece bikini that was most common on site, but rather a relatively conservative one-piece swimsuit. Even so, it didn't hide her perfect figure and long legs at all. Lin Tian realized at this moment that this girl was probably around 180 centimeters tall!
Even in Hollywood, where beauties abound, those long legs are definitely a bit unfair!
Add to that her long, golden-yellow hair, which was even turning slightly white, and her perfect features, and a feeling washed over Lin Tian.
This girl is different from other girls!
What are the specific differences?
Of course, it's not some kind of soul, inner self, personality, or any other weird thing.
Yes, she's more beautiful, prettier, and has a better figure!
Mr. Lin is just that superficial.
Well, of course, there's something else too. This girl has an undeniable air about her, the kind of refined and dignified demeanor that comes from being well-educated, and whose politeness in small details makes people feel more comfortable.
This girl is definitely not the kind of beauty who grew up in a slum or an ordinary family. She is very likely well-educated and at least from a middle-class family!
"Is there... something on my face?" The girl blushed slightly as she saw Lin Tian staring at her intently, her charm now tinged with a touch of cuteness.
"No, I just feel like I've seen you before." Lin Tian launched his attack, starting with the oldest and most unoriginal method.
But how should I put it? The most exquisite ingredients often appear in the simplest way!
Lin Tian's flirting was the same!
I'm handsome, I don't need any tricks!
That's how narcissistic he is!
Besides, Lin Tian wasn't making this up. After staring at the girl for a while, Lin Tian really did feel... that she looked familiar!
"Really? But I've only played some very small roles. My agent said that I'm not even considered to have entered the entertainment industry yet. Only by participating in more events like this, communicating with those big shots, getting to know more people, and building connections can I officially enter the entertainment industry!"
"Your English accent is adorable. You're not American, are you?" After the girl finished speaking, Lin Tian immediately found a way to start a deeper conversation. Since neither of them were American, they had something in common to talk about!
As for people from Asia, Europe, and Africa, as long as they are good-looking, they are all part of the global village!
"Yes, I grew up in South Africa. A few years ago, there were some unexpected events in my family, so my mother and I came to Los Angeles!"
As soon as the girl finished speaking, Lin Tian immediately remembered who she was!
Born in South Africa, with a good family background, and experiencing some family misfortune, plus being so good-looking...
Charlize Theron!
Charlize Theron comes from a well-off middle-class family. Her parents used to run a good company and were definitely well-off. However, a few years ago, some very bad things happened to Theron's family.
A tragic incident led her and her mother to move away from South Africa. After traveling through France, Germany, Italy, and other places, they finally arrived in Los Angeles a few years ago.
Then came the all-too-familiar scenario: the tall and charming Charlize Theron was spotted by a talent scout and started with simple modeling jobs before moving on to playing small roles in movies.
However, Charlize Theron, who stands at 177 cm tall with a perfect figure and an angelic face, is still waiting for her chance.
Her good background and decent family environment meant that Theron was not short of money, which also made her extremely resistant to having anything with that disgusting 50-year-old man.
Therefore, Charlize Theron, who has been in the industry for two or three years, has hardly had any decent opportunities. Not to mention making a name for herself in front of the public, even her manager is somewhat willing to give up on her and is too lazy to continue to give her advice.
He has a handsome appearance, but he's utterly useless.
This is how Theron's agent described her.
After all, Hollywood is never short of beautiful women with sexy figures and exquisite features. It is even the place with the most beautiful women in the world. If a girl wants to make a name for herself in such a place, either her father or her godfather needs to be powerful.
Want to climb the ladder through your own abilities? It's not impossible, and it's not like no one has ever done it, but that's no different from buying a lottery ticket.
Basically, it's 99% luck plus 1% ability.
After all, for those producers, since they're going to promote someone to be the female lead anyway, why would they choose you instead of those girls who are willing to open their zippers?
So, after several unsuccessful attempts to persuade Theron to take the initiative, Theron's agent has recently stopped pressuring her and has stopped letting her attend parties or anything like that, completely letting her do whatever she wants!
As for Theron's visit to Old Bath for this party...
"Each girl gets $2000 here!" Theron honestly replied, "I usually work myself to death walking a show or shooting a few commercials, and that's all the money I make. Here, I can eat and drink, and earn money effortlessly, so why not?"
Well... in principle, Theron is just like any other girl, she's here to make money.
However, the other girls were there hoping to climb the social ladder or make connections, so the $2000 was just a consolation prize.
As for Theron, she's just aiming for a consolation prize.
Since Lin Tian was in a state of deep contemplation, he simply sat down on a bench and started chatting with Theron. With Lin Tian's affability and strong conversational skills, he made Theron laugh heartily in less than 10 minutes.
"Would you like something to drink?" After chatting for a while, Lin Tian asked Theron with a smile.
"Whiskey Bar".
"Would you like ice?" Lin Tian politely asked, revealing his true colors.
"Hmm, let's not add ice. I don't really want anything iced today." Theron shook her head, declining the suggestion to add ice.
Can't drink iced drinks? Lin Tian thought to himself: This girl is so unprofessional!
Regardless of whether you came here for the $2000 appearance fee, if you can't drink iced drinks, what kind of party are you attending?
Absolutely no professional ethics!
So what happened next...
Lin Tian quickly accelerated the process.
"It's not good for a girl to stay out too late alone."
"That's enough, this is the last one!"
"It's very unsafe for girls to drink too much alcohol; it's easy for something to happen."
"Where do you live? Shall I take you home?"
"Please be careful! Come on, I'll take you home, we can talk on the way."
"Oh dear, I just remembered, the magician needs to see me about something. How about this, I'll have the owner's driver take you home. Bye!"
……
Before they learned that Theron couldn't drink ice water, the two were chatting enthusiastically.
After learning that Theron couldn't drink ice water, Lin Tian immediately doubled the speed!
In just 20 minutes, he accomplished the feat of getting Theron out of the villa and having someone take her home!
Throughout the process, he was such a gentleman, such a virtuous person, and he never looked away!
When Theron finally got into the car, tears were welling up in her eyes.
