Chapter 164
John didn't know how to answer Jed's question, because he didn't have an accurate definition to describe the relationship between the two.If you just say that you are Jed's special assistant and personal secretary, this relationship may not convince anyone.But if it is necessary to say that the two have any special personal relationship, John can only describe it as a very good, very good friendship.
When the two first met, they happened to get rid of their own ridiculous years.At that time, Jed was a well-known nightclub character in Los Angeles. Although people were still generally hostile to homosexuality at the time, Jed had already put his arms around the young model from time to time for reporters to take pictures.And although John was not as high-profile as Jed at that time, how many of the famous gay clubs in California did not have their own membership cards?Perhaps every man with a heart is looking forward to a dedicated and pure person to spend the rest of his life when they are about to close their hearts.
Therefore, it can be said that at the beginning of their acquaintance, John did not think that Jed would be his boyfriend, and Jed would certainly not arrange for someone who would spend his life together in the future to be his assistant and lawyer.But many things are often so unbelievable, and the vulgar "long-term love" actually happened to these two people.It's not clear who first created the ambiguity between the two. In short, everyone knows in their hearts that the two are definitely not purely colleagues and friends.
The moment John blocked the gun for Jed, Jed's heart was absolutely moved.But both of them are unwilling to open the mouth first. Jed is a person who is enthusiastic about many things but is naturally shy when he encounters love, and John is a person who does not speak easily. Therefore, the relationship between the two The progress was so slow that even Shannetti couldn't stand it anymore.
In order to match these two people, Shannetti had to arrange their holidays together, and even arranged to go to the same place for vacation, but the relationship between the two did not make any special progress.But what the two of them also understood very well was that the relationship between the two was decidedly more than just friendship.But when Jed did ask the question again, John was confused again.
"Then what do you think is the relationship between us?" Perhaps it is the best choice to throw questions that are difficult to answer to the questioner.
John didn't answer Jed's question directly, but asked Jed back with the same question.Because what John wanted to confirm at this time was what kind of position he was in Jed's heart.He has passed the time when he needs "vigorous" love. At this time, John needs to find a way for himself in the future. On this way, he needs someone to accompany him, and he must confirm who this person is.
"I don't know how to answer this question." Jed chuckled, "It stands to reason that we have many relationships. You are my friend, my lawyer, my assistant, my colleague...and I I even want to say, you are my family. Without you, I don't even want to go back to the Sherman Manor in Beverly Hills. Because of the empty rooms, I can't feel at home anyway, but since you promised After I moved here to 'borrow', this manor made me feel like a home. In fact, we missed a lot, and I feel that if I don't confirm some things with you, I will never have a chance again."
"Then why choose this time?" John felt a little strange, it wasn't Valentine's Day or anyone's birthday.
"I always think Thanksgiving is a very special festival, because every year when I come to this festival, I always think about who helped me this year and how I should thank them. And every time I think about Thanksgiving Your name will always appear on the list I want to thank. But I have never said 'thank you' to you. Maybe I don't think we need thank you, but I find that the relationship between us seems to be Have you reached that level. That's why I'm curious, John, what kind of person am I in your eyes? And what kind of relationship do we have in your heart?"
Suddenly, Jed's study room became a little strange to John. In fact, this room is the room he is most familiar with, because there are too many secrets of the Sherman family hidden in this room, and some of these secrets are even the housekeepers of the Sherman family. Neither Shannette nor Shannette knew.John glanced at the oil painting of his parents on Jed's head. Behind the loving oil painting is a very high-defense safe, which stores Jed's last assets and secrets that cannot be made public at all, but the password of this safe is But only I know, even Jed can't remember such complicated passwords sometimes.
Behind the bookshelf on Jed's left is the Sherman family's war room, which is where Jed, John, Shannette, and the butler discuss important matters. The special encryption of the satellite company; or the use of a satellite company located in the UK for special encryption... In short, John knows that although the security level of this situation room is not as good as that of the White House, it is better than the general situation room A lot.
Many people think that Jed's success seems easy, but John knows that before major decisions are made, Jed will stay in the war room for at least a month.John can have a lot of evidence to prove that his relationship with Jed is very close, but he can't use an accurate word to describe his relationship with Jed.Maybe there was a word, but both he and Jed were avoiding it.
From John's own point of view, he did not deny that Jed was indeed a good companion.Don't expect Jed to be aggressive and like to tease with sexual metaphors when he is interviewed by the show, but John knows that this is Jed's self-protection measure.The reason why Jed always shows his sharp spines like a frightened porcupine is to warn all creatures that are against him.
In private, Jed is a very easy-going person, and he will give a gift to anyone in the company on their birthday.The average employee is a fancy cake, and the management is a bottle of wine and then a birthday card.Best of all, this birthday card was handwritten and signed by Jed himself.Now the Sherman Group is already very large, and many employees may not have met Jed in person, but they can receive a birthday card signed by Jed on their birthday.And all single female employees will definitely receive red roses in the name of Jed on Valentine's Day; non-single female employees will receive lilies in the name of Jed on their wedding anniversary.This is not a change made by Jed to accept the advice of a certain management consulting company, but his own decision.It is precisely because of these decisions that the loyalty of Sherman Group employees is very high.In particular, the Sherman Group is involved in industries such as entertainment, mobile communications, and optical storage, but their employee turnover rate is the lowest.So John has always thought that Jed is a good boss, and the premise of a good boss is that he is a good person.
If it was ten years ago, if John met Jed, he might feel that he might break up after a few months of getting along.The love between comrades is easy to evaporate, especially if the two people do not have marriage as the premise.And even if marriage is the premise, the chances of mutual betrayal between comrades are relatively high, and how to get along will show the wisdom of two people.But what makes John very strange is that when Jed gets along with him, the two of them bid farewell to the days of "Looking for Flowers and Asking Willows" in a short period of time.
Later, John and Jed would rather waste time in the gym or hiking in the wild, and rarely go to nightclubs.Even if I go to the bar occasionally, it's just a kind of bar or leisure bar, listening to music and tasting wine.So for John now, if Jed really wants him to confess, maybe he will really accept it.But let him take the initiative to speak, John thinks it's okay, he should still have a little bit of his own reserve.
Seeing that John hadn't spoken for a long time, Jed was also a little anxious.Jed couldn't help but said: "Don't you have any evaluation of me in your heart? Or, did the things I did before make it difficult for you to evaluate? But the problem is, since I met you, I have always behaved Moment! Others may not believe what I say, but you are the one by my side, and you even know the color of my underwear every day. But I have been worried, or afraid, that one day you will leave me .”
"Why did I leave you?" John was a little bit dumbfounded, "Isn't there a good relationship between us?"
"Your family, your business..." Jed said, "One day when the Sherman Group is no longer the company you expected, you will definitely leave. I just want to know, what should I use at that time?" Reasons to keep you? Or what qualifications do I have to keep you? In fact, I have always regarded you as my partner. Now it is spiritual, and there may be other aspects in the future. But what I want to know is, do you Is there anything else besides treating me as your boss, your friend?"
"Are you confessing your love to me?" John smiled narrowly, "The problem is, other people only confess their love on three dates, how many times have you dated me? Such a confession is a little too insincere, right? "
"Okay then, we're not too young, so let's fill up the quota for those three dates!" Jed looked at the schedule on his phone, "It just so happens that tomorrow night is the release date of "Toy Story 2". Shall we go on a first date?"
Galaxy Animation Studio, a subsidiary of Galaxy Films, has released two cartoons this year. The sequel "Toy Story 2" will be released on Thanksgiving, and the new work "Elf Mouse Brother" will be arranged for family viewing during Christmas. release.The outside world's evaluation of these two cartoons is mixed. In comparison, the evaluation of "Toy Story 2" is slightly higher.
Many analysts believe that this kind of theme that consumes "adult nostalgia" should be easy to win the box office, and it should be difficult for a purely animated film like "Elf Mouse Brother" to win a better box office.However, they can’t be blamed for underestimating “Little Elf Mouse”. After all, Hollywood doesn’t pay enough attention to animated films at this time. It is the humanistic care in Pixar animation, and perhaps animated films will continue to be ignored in later generations.
Jed didn't specifically refute anything. Compared with Galaxy Movies, which has already established its dominance in Hollywood, Galaxy Animation Studio is really just a fledgling newcomer.Although backed by Galaxy movies, Hollywood has never cared about this kind of nepotism.Let the box office tell the story of how the two films will fare.
However, you still have to find amc to book two good seats first!
