Southeast of Park City, in front of the gate of Simon's hilltop mansion.
Another black SUV suitable for mountain driving slowly stopped, the window was opened, and the beautiful girl in the passenger seat, wrapped in a thick down jacket and still unable to hide her exquisiteness, handed an invitation letter to the guard at the door.
The doorman was very polite. He took the invitation, opened it, looked up at the couple in the carriage, shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, you two. This invitation is for Mr. Tom Noonan. The note says It is clear that you can bring a companion, but you must attend in person, otherwise the invitation will be invalid and neither of you will be Mr Noonan."
The young man in the driver's seat holding the steering wheel said calmly: "Man, are you mistaken? I am Tom Noonan."
The guard just made a turning gesture: "Please don't doubt my professionalism, please go back."
The girl in the passenger seat looked pitifully at the doorman with her beautiful blue eyes and begged: "Sir, we are Tom's friends. He gave us the invitation because he didn't have time to attend. Please, can you let us in?" "
The doorman was indifferent to the girl's pitiful appearance: "The invitation is not transferable. Unfortunately, you two, please turn around as soon as possible. There will be other guests behind you."
The girl still didn't give up. She took out her cell phone and said, "We can call Tom to prove that the invitation is really from him."
The guard was unmoved and made another gesture with a stronger tone: "Miss, please don't embarrass us."
There are already three cars waiting behind the negotiation room.
Faced with the doorman's insistence, the young man in the driver's seat glanced at the unobstructed gate and the brightly lit hilltop villa as far as the eye could see. After a little hesitation, he honestly pushed the car aside.
It seems easy to force his way in, but if he really does this, he will completely give up the idea of developing from the music industry to Hollywood, and even his personal career will end here.
Very serious consequences.
I also regretted a little in my heart. I shouldn't have asked for the invitation letter from the young director just to bring my girlfriend with me. I didn't expect that there was no photo on the invitation letter and the young director was not a big shot, but the guard could still tell him at a glance.
The SUV turned around in the small square in front of the spacious door, and the man couldn't help but glance at the burly doorman. Could it be that that guy had memorized what all the guests looked like? This was unreasonable.
"Mark, what should we do? Should we call Nancy Josephson? I heard that she is also in Park City. By the way, aren't you the endorser of CK's men's underwear? Maybe we can contact CK, CK It belongs to Melisandre Company, which is also a company under the name of Westeros."
Listening to his girlfriend beside him who was still talking nonsense regardless of his emotions, Mark even wanted to slap her. He was the one who suffered the most. In this party tonight, not to mention Simon Westeros, If he could become familiar with many of these big names, it would be enough to save him several years of detours in Hollywood.
Now it's completely ruined.
After dawdling for a while, he found that another car was blocked from the door, and finally realized that he was not the only one who wanted to do this tonight.
Think about it too.
Tonight's invitations were mainly sent to many new filmmakers participating in the Sundance Film Festival. However, in terms of level, the party hosted by Simon Westeros will be flocked to by even Hollywood's top names. Those who have just Rookies who have made one or two movies but received invitations have naturally become the coveted targets of many people. As long as they are not stupid, newcomers in these circles will not easily give up the opportunity to contact Westeros, but there is pressure in other aspects. Next time, you may have to give up the invitation letter in your hand, or take the initiative to bring someone you don't want to attend with you.
Another car that was turned away, a fellow refugee, honked its horn behind him, and Mark had no choice but to drive down the mountain in depression.
The party in the main villa became more and more lively as the number of guests increased, and the defense task of the mountaintop mansion was indeed a bit heavy.
Not only those who wanted to enter the party under false identities, but also those who forged invitations or simply didn’t have an invitation and tried to force their way in. Naturally, all of them were blocked.
That's all.
There were actually people walking up from the surrounding hillsides through the thick snow.
The slopes of the hills around Park City are not very steep. Even with thick snow, it is actually very easy to touch. However, these people have basically triggered the outermost layer of the security system thirty meters away from the mansion wall. Alarm, when they came to the symbolic low stone wall, they seemed to be able to easily enter another world, but there were already bodyguards waiting for them in front of them.
As his wealth and power continue to increase, Simon pays more and more attention to his personal safety. Although nothing has happened yet, Simon definitely does not want to wait for something to happen before he can remedy it.
In the main villa, because the space is spacious enough, about two hundred guests are scattered in various rooms open to guests on the first floor without feeling crowded at all.
Girl A took out two boxes of red wine from the underground wine cellar with several waiters, locked the basement door herself, and came to the first floor, when a bodyguard walked in hastily from the door.
Noticing the bodyguard's searching eyes, Alison stopped him and asked, "Beck, what's wrong?"
The bodyguard named Baker stopped and said, "Miss Norris, more than twenty intruders who climbed up the hillside have been caught outside. Would you like me to come over and ask Mr. Westeros what to do?"
Alison didn't react for a moment: "Climbed up the hillside?"
Baker raised his hand and pointed in the northwest direction: "These are the hillsides on both sides."
Alison was speechless for a moment. The west and north sides of this hilltop bordered Park City, but it was at least five or six hundred meters away from the bottom of the mountain. At this time, the hillside was still covered with snow. Even if there was no It's too dangerous and it's not easy to climb up.
Now that they have come up, they must not be able to drive these uninvited guests back from the way they came. Otherwise, it will be troublesome if anything happens.
Of course, it is impossible to enter the party, otherwise more people will follow the same pattern in the future.
"Come with me."
Alison thought to herself as she led Baker through the living room. When passing by the stairs, she found a Mexican girl arguing with the waiter guarding the stairs, seemingly wanting to go upstairs.
Girl A stopped temporarily and asked, "Ms. Hayek, do you have any questions?"
The petite but plump Mexican girl did not expect that Alison would call her by her last name. Seeing the black women's suit of Girl A, which was obviously a higher level than the on-site waiter, she did not dare to make a mistake and explained: "I want to When I went to the bathroom, there happened to be people downstairs."
Alison said: "Sorry, Miss Hayek, the upstairs is not open. If you are in a hurry, I will have someone take you to the villa next door."
The girl hesitated a little awkwardly after hearing this, then shook her head and said, "Forget it, I'll wait a little longer."
Alison nodded, watched the Mexican girl walk away, and continued to lead Baker through the crowd, along the east corridor to a private bar located at the east end of the villa.
Because Simon people are here, the bar with an area of more than 100 square meters and various entertainment facilities is full of people. Amidst the soft music, some people are dancing on the dance floor, some are playing darts, and some are chatting at the bar.
At the pool table in the corner of the bar, Simon was playing with Redford, Deutschman, Madonna and others while chatting.
Madonna is here too.
Park City has gathered more and more people in the music industry in recent years. At this film festival, the Backstreet Boys, a band that Daenerys Entertainment Records is focusing on cultivating, also came to perform for their first album, which will be released on Easter. As a warm-up event, several people have been invited to come tonight.
Madonna is a guy who loves to join in the fun, and her personal relationship with Simon is pretty good, so she certainly won’t miss tonight’s party.
The club is in the hands of Madonna and Redford.
Alison watched Robert Redford, whose personality was actually more serious, playing with Madonna, and instinctively felt a little weird.
My boss has a very changeable personality and can get along with any kind of people very happily as long as he wants to, but this is definitely not the case with Robert Redford.
Sure enough, after Madonna missed a shot, she pretended to try again. Redford had no objection at all and directly motioned to his aunt to continue. Madonna probably felt that Redford, who was completely uncooperative with her, was too boring, so she simply gave the club to her little boyfriend with a vase next to her, took the red wine that the other person had been carrying for her, went to the sofa next to her, and said unceremoniously Pushing Natasha Henstridge aside, he sat down next to Simon.
Simon was discussing something in a low voice with Deutschman. When Madonna sat over, he had to temporarily stop the conversation. He looked up, noticed Alison and Beck, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Alison stepped forward and briefly explained what was going on outside.
Simon didn't feel strange after hearing this, and smiled: "Let Ken send some people to drive them down the mountain, so that nothing happens."
Alison nodded and left with Beck.
It's only a few hundred meters up the hillside from the west and north, but the road down the mountain winds for three kilometers. It's definitely not possible to send those people walking down the mountain in the cold night.
The professional bodyguards accompanying Simon this time consisted of two groups of eight people. For the sake of the villa's defense, it was impossible to leave. However, the party company responsible for tonight's party had prepared some surrogate drivers in advance, which happened to be able to help send people off.
Alison went outside the villa to explain to Ken Dixon, then saw the group of unlucky guys who were caught, and returned to the villa again.
The party started around 7:30 and it was already 8:30.
Entering the living room of the villa, Alison, who had been busy, finally heard what happened at noon and hurried to the living room next to the living room.
There are also a lot of people gathered here, and there are several familiar faces in Hollywood who are sitting on the sofa drinking and chatting. The two brothers of the Baldwin family, Alec Baldwin and William Baldwin, and the sexy actress Da, who has many masterpieces. Lil Hannah and Kelly Lynch, star of Tom Cruise's "Cocktail."
Smiling and nodding to a few people, Alison nonchalantly placed the script of "Cutthroat Island" under the coffee table, as well as several other scripts that had been signed by Daenerys Entertainment, as well as film and fashion magazines as cover. Get organized. I didn't forget to take a quick look beforehand. The "Cutthroat Island" script at the top had obviously been moved and was no longer where it was originally placed.
Even if it wasn't the four people on the sofa, it was impossible not to see them from the position they were sitting in.
Holding a stack of script magazines, Alison left the living room in a slight hurry. Although she didn't pay attention deliberately, Alison still felt that many eyes around her were on her.
It is not difficult to imagine that after tonight, the news that Simon Westeros personally read the script of "Cutthroat Island" will definitely spread, and this alone is enough to arouse the interest of many people.
