80. Chapter 80 Go to New Zealand again

If someone else heard Garen say this, he would definitely feel that he was very troublesome. I spent money to ask you to work, not to complain. I think the salary is not enough? It doesn’t matter. You can discuss adding some points, but if you want to say that it is not a problem of money, and don’t want to do so much, then it’s better to go as far as you can.

But Sean doesn't. As one of the childhood friends who grew up together, he knew very well how persistent Galen was with his ideals. This kid began to conceive since he was 7 years old - although there were all irrelevant ideas at that time - and think about all the things he has experienced in this life, why don't he support him? A salary of thousands of dollars can still be afforded.

I just feel sorry for Mr. Li. He is a good person in the community. Because Sean would occasionally speak Chinese with idioms and say something about his Chinese family arrangements and antique collections, he liked him very much. If he knew that he supported Garen so much, he would be angry. Of course, Sean was on Garen's side, so he could only say sorry in his heart.

However, the new assistant is not that easy to find. It is what Frederick told Sean at the beginning. To be trustworthy, you must have certain abilities to control your mouth. Therefore, it is expected that for a long time, Garen will continue to take on the heavy responsibility of assistant and deal with Sean's unreasonable trouble, such as-

"Since I have agreed to your request and moved to Beverly Hills, what you promised me should do," said Sean with a smile. "I don't need anything else, just make the braised pork."

Speaking of which, I have tasted some delicious food in my previous life, but for some reason, Sean remembers the taste of braised pork the most firmly. Especially the fatty meat with the sauce melts in her mouth, which is really hard to stop. In this life, he has always wanted to taste the taste again. Although he has also eaten it in a Chinese restaurant in Chinatown, he finally feels it is not authentic enough.

Since Galen is by his side now, his cooking skills may not be as good as those chefs, but they are quite good. Since that's the case, if Sean doesn't take this opportunity to instruct him, who should he instruct? Besides, there was no environment in the apartment before, so it would be no problem to rent a villa. If you can't do it well once or twice, then do it a few more times.

"Well, you...'second life'," Garen rolled his eyes, "Don't forget to find a new assistant."

"I'm a 'foodie'. I've told you a long time ago. If you don't know Chinese, don't show off in front of me." Sean laughed proudly.

The so-called good friend is that Galen can tell Sean without any scruples that he doesn't want to do so many things, and Sean can grab his painful feet mercilessly and sarcastically without getting angry.

Since he promised Garen, Sean would not take it in his heart, so he threw this matter to Frederick.

"New assistant, why?" The agent was very surprised. "Is there anything Garen hasn't done well?"

"No, he just doesn't want to do it anymore." Sean didn't explain in detail, but just asked him to find a new assistant.

Since that was the case, Frederick agreed, and then there was no movement in the New Year. After being urged, Sean found the agent and asked him. He thought he had a quarrel with Garen and didn't care at all. In addition, they were still acting together, Garen was still doing the job of an assistant, so he completely forgot it.

It's really ridiculous, but it also indirectly shows how good he and his best friend are. Even Frederick admits it, which brings unexpected changes.

Of course, this is all for the future. Time goes back to mid-December. After "The God of Death is Coming", Sean took a break for almost a month. Although it was a rest, he did not attend parties everywhere every day. Although in Hollywood, as long as he wanted, there would be parties at any time.

He either read books, did some performance exercises, played TV games with Garen, or went to accompany Naomi, or tried to ask Jodana out. He ignored the reports, and Frederick would notify him as soon as possible, in short, he kept a relaxed state and waited for Christmas, which was the time for the release of "The Genius Ripley".

Then, a phone call came from Sean Street, a call from New Zealand.

"Are you ready? I'm already waiting for you in Queenstown." Peter Jackson asked sternly on the phone.

So, two weeks before Christmas, Sean brought Garen and came to the southern hemisphere again after a few months - this time he entrusted Pock and Lucy to Jordanna.

Compared with the cold windy winter in the northern hemisphere, the southern hemisphere is entering a green summer. Although the Queen is not much different from the temperature in Los Angeles - only during the day - the scenery is very beautiful. Especially in the wild, there are patches of woods or wastelands with primitive appearances. Looking up at the past, people will feel broader.

"I cannot admit that it is really suitable to show the style of Middle-earth." After getting off at the station on the edge of the forest, this was this when Sean saw Jackson.

"Of course, I'm very familiar with everything here. It's clear what's suitable for making a movie scene." Jackson then smiled proudly. This guy really likes being praised.

"But I didn't expect you to come to greet me." Sean was a little surprised again. Although this was the crew's residence, looking around, it was still a distance from the set in the woods. How could Jackson appear here?

"I came to give it to someone, but I didn't expect to meet you. The assistant just told me that you will arrive in at least half an hour." Jackson explained.

"The road conditions are good, so we arrived early." Sean was slightly disappointed, but quickly adjusted, "Who will send you away."

"Of course..." Jackson then turned around and saw an old man in casual clothes coming over: "Okay, Peter, I'll go first, see you in the New Year."

"Okay, Ian, goodbye to New Year." Jackson nodded with a smile, and then introduced him: "Look, Ian, this is Sean, Sean Don, and also Hardill Sean of Roslorien, this is Sir Ian McKellen, the great grey robed wizard Gandalf."

"It's great to see you, Sean, so that there are three Seans in our cast." Gandalf, oh, it was McKellen who smiled and reached out.

The old man looked handsome and smiling, looking approachable and graceful, but for some reason, Sean always felt his gaze was a bit weird.

Of course, he did not forget to shake hands with him: "Hello, Sir McKellen, I'm happy to see you."

"Then, I will hand over Frodo to you, Hardir, please take good care of him on my behalf." The old man said humorously again.

Sean blinked, and seemed not to react, but immediately straightened his body, raised his chin slightly, squinted his eyes as if he was a little arrogant, and said in a plain tone: "As you wish, Gandalf of Aisinger, I am here to wait for you to kill the Flame Demon and be promoted to a white-robed wizard."

Jackson and McKellen both burst into laughter.

"Good job, Sean, you're such a funny young man." McKellen patted his shoulder, seemingly liked it very much, "It's a pity that there seems to be no interaction between us."

"There will be a chance in the future," Sean smiled slightly. "This movie doesn't work, there are other movies."

"That's great, I hope I can really cooperate next time." McKellen patted his shoulder again, then said goodbye to Jackson and got into his car.

"Sir McKellen is such an interesting person, he must be very popular." Seeing the old man's car leave, Sean said so.

"Of course, he is one of the best actors in Britain." Jackson said, waved, "Let's go, we still have several shots to shoot today."

"By the way, Peter," Sean hesitated, and asked, but his voice was lowered, "Is Sir McKellen... gay?"

"Yes," Jackson did not hide at all, but was a little strange, "this is already well known."

"I just want to make sure that at least he doesn't look very much like him," Sean said lying with his eyes open.

He had actually noticed that the reason why McKellen's gaze was strange before was because he felt similar to David Huglis and David Gould, who filmed the commercials, but not so strong. As a person who grew up in San Francisco, he was actually very sensitive to such gazes. Even if McKell looked at them in a hidden way, Sean could still feel them.

However, because it was very hidden, he was not very sure, but then he recalled some anecdotes about "Lord of the Rings". He seemed to mention that an old actor was homosexual, so he asked boldly. Well, it doesn't matter if he is too old. Anyway, he doesn't have to worry that he will ask him out.

Following the road opened by the crew, he followed Jackson into the woods for a few minutes. The set immediately appeared in front of him, bustling and bustling. The prop group was building the set and putting the produced foam building in the designated position as required. The lighting group was debugging the lights, while the photography group was testing the miracle while directing the assistant to move. As for the actors, they were all wearing costumes and resting and chatting in the simple tent set up.

"Hey guys, there are new members joining, but not your team." Jackson said hello from afar, and introduced them to Sean one by one.

Billy Boyd, who plays Pipin, Dominic Monaghan, Merry, Sean Austin, Sam, and Orlando Bloom, who plays Leglas, and John Reese Davis, who plays Jinli. They actually found a 6-foot guy to play the dwarf; Sean Bing, who plays Boromere. Now Sean understands why McKellen said there were three Seans before.

Of course, there is also Aragon, one of the two protagonists. Is he the British actor Stewart Townsend the original, but the American actor Vigo Motson. It is said that Jackson felt that he was too young and did not match Aragon's image, so he fired him when the filming was about to be started, poor guy.

Vigo Motson is also very interesting because he has never read the "Lord of the Rings" series of novels. After receiving the notice, he hurriedly read it on the plane. It is unimaginable that Jackson actually activated him.
