Chapter 93: Clown

~7 min read 1,365 words

Tsui Hark came like a gust of wind, and left like a gust of wind.

Wen Yongshan helped Chen Nuo sit on the sofa, patted his back, and said: "Are you okay? Thank you, really thank you."

Chen Nuo waved his hand and said: "It's okay, I might be... haven't drunk for a long time."

He hadn't drunk for a long time, but he had almost never touched alcohol since he grew up in this life.

Even in his previous life, his alcohol tolerance was particularly bad.

The atmosphere was just right, he just wanted to make the momentum sufficient, pretend to be unintentional, but actually, he specifically chose that blue cocktail that looked like it had a low alcohol content.

Unexpectedly, it was estimated that that glass of wine was specifically tailored by the bartender for some drunkard, and more than half of the glass was strong liquor. It was intercepted by him halfway.

A high-degree liquor of over 60 degrees was gulped down by him in one go. With his alcohol tolerance, it would be strange if he could stand it.

Qi Yuntian suddenly appeared from nowhere. Looking at Chen Nuo, whose face was flushed, his expression was very ugly, and he said coldly to Wen Yongshan: "What's going on with you, how could you let him drink so much?"

Wen Yongshan knew Qi Yuntian was Chen Nuo's agent. Hearing him blame herself, she felt a bit aggrieved in her heart and was just about to explain, when Chen Nuo heard it vaguely and said vaguely: "Doesn't concern her, send me off the boat..."

Subsequently, he didn't know anything anymore. Chen Nuo actually didn't sleep very well this sleep, because the feeling of being drunk was particularly uncomfortable, making him dizzy and brain-swollen, especially, he felt he was still on the boat.

Although he hadn't opened his eyes, his consciousness had been very confused.

Otherwise, why did he feel the bumps?

Warm and gentle sea waves surged, one wave after another, seemingly endless, carrying him drifting back and forth on the water surface.

At the same time, there seemed to be an octopus monster in the sea, with extreme endurance, limbs entangled, not fast or slow, extremely methodical, and would not be reconciled until he completely lost the power to resist.

In a trance, a feeling of indignation suddenly surged up, and in the end, he still couldn't withstand the bumps in the sea and vomited a mess.

However, someone actually helped him clean up the filth he vomited, which was also strange. It could only be said that Hong Kong is really a place of accumulating good deeds, and there are too many kind-hearted people.

Early the next morning, Chen Nuo actually woke up quite early.

In fact, shortly after the wind and waves calmed down, his drunkenness passed, and he woke up. It's just that he thought he couldn't wake up at the time, so he forced himself to sleep again.

Later, he was always half-asleep and half-awake. Wen Yongshan had been leaning beside him, her long eyelashes like two brushes, closed tightly, sleeping very sweetly.

With warmth and fragrance in his arms, and everyone being fellow sufferers who escaped the sea monster together, Chen Nuo naturally couldn't bear to wake her up.

The phone in the room suddenly rang.

"Ding ling ling ling!"

Wen Yongshan opened her eyes in a daze and said vaguely: "What?"

Subsequently, the two people's eyes met all at once.

"Ah!" Wen Yongshan's eyes straightened all at once, let out a scream, immediately turned around, and buried her head in the quilt, leaving only a naked back like curd and a little bit of buttock groove to him.

Chen Nuo smiled helplessly, you look like this, making it seem like that sea monster yesterday was me.

He reached out and picked up the phone, and said hello. Qi Yuntian's voice: "Woke up? If you're awake, come down quickly, come to the restaurant to eat breakfast, and introduce a friend to you."

Looking at Wen Yongshan, knowing she definitely wouldn't go out to see people with him, he got up and put on clothes, saying in his mouth: "What do you want to eat? My agent called me down to eat breakfast, I'll bring it up for you later."

Until Chen Nuo was about to walk out of the door, Wen Yongshan said in a soft voice: "Pineapple bun."

The pineapple bun that Hong Kong people say is the pineapple bun. The food itself is not strange, but Chen Nuo always felt that he had seen the same shape somewhere yesterday, and missed it a bit.

After walking to the restaurant, Qi Yuntian was sitting by the window with a golden-haired short-haired ghost, looking at the scenery and drinking coffee, the two chatting and laughing, seemingly talking very happily.

Seeing Chen Nuo coming over, Qi Yuntian waved at him and said something to that ghost. So that person also turned his head to look, and carefully looked Chen Nuo up and down with very serious eyes.

As soon as Chen Nuo approached, Qi Yuntian stood up and said in English: "Let me introduce you two. Chen Nuo, this is Jonathan Nolan, an old friend I knew at Georgetown University, and also my senior. Jonathan, this is my boss, Berlin Film Festival Best Actor, and also the young actor with the most influence in mainland China, Chen Nuo."

"Hello, Jonathan, nice to meet you

"Hello, Chen, I am too."

Chen Nuo shook hands with this man, who was about the same age as Qi Yuntian.

He kept a calm expression on his face, but in reality, he was very curious inside.

He wasn't familiar with this man's face, but he was very familiar with his surname. So, with a little association and a quick search through his memory, he immediately knew who this short-haired man in front of him was.

Jonathan Nolan.

Christopher Nolan's younger brother. Why would he appear in Hong Kong?

Chen Nuo remembered that among the foreigners who invested in Wang Jiawei, this person was not included.

Could it be *The Dark Knight*?

That's not right; shouldn't Nolan be filming *The Prestige* right now?

Qi Yuntian seemed to sense the doubt in his heart and explained, "Jonathan knows Shi Misi from Studiocanal, and Shi Misi happened to invite him to last night's party, which is how I met him there. OMG, this is truly a wonderful reunion. Jonathan, the last time we met seems to have been six years ago in Los Angeles, right?"

Jonathan Nolan revealed a nostalgic look on his face and said, "That's right. At that time, I was still writing the first screenplay of my life, *Memento*... Chris, I remember you gave me quite a few suggestions back then."

Qi Yuntian laughed, "Luckily you didn't listen to me, otherwise *Memento* wouldn't have been able to be nominated for an Oscar."

Jonathan Nolan laughed out loud and said, "Chris, but you really did give me a lot of inspiration. Perhaps if I had really listened to you, it wouldn't have just been a nomination that time."

Qi Yuntian said, "Impossible. I knew you were the one who was right; I knew it at the time, I just didn't want to admit it."

A flash of sly amusement crossed Jonathan Nolan's eyes as he said, "Oh, Chris, this doesn't sound like you. I remember how unique you were at Georgetown University; even Professor Morris couldn't do anything about you back then. You're actually admitting your mistake in front of me today? It seems it's for his sake, right?"

Qi Yuntian smiled, "Jonathan, people always have to grow up. However, Chen Nuo is indeed a very good actor. He only needs one opportunity, and he will make everyone feel shocked."

Jonathan Nolan shook his head and said, "Chris, actually, Berlin has already acknowledged his strength as an actor; you don't need to emphasize it again."

Qi Yuntian said, "No, no, no. Berlin is too far away. Hollywood is nearsighted and can't see it, can it?"

Jonathan Nolan laughed, "Perhaps we need a telescope."

Qi Yuntian smiled faintly, "I am that telescope."
