Chapter 240 The Old Captain's Request!
Wang Xiucheng gave Durant a meaningful look, which made Durant feel uneasy.
No wonder Du Xiaoshuai was so enthusiastic today, now I know why.
Ignoring Durant, Wang Xiucheng took a bath towel and went into the bathroom.
Half an hour later, Wang Xiucheng appeared in Depp's car in the parking lot.
There were several cigarette butts under the car door, and the old captain seemed a bit annoyed.
"To make a long story short, Your Majesty, I would like to ask you for a favor."
As soon as he got into the car, Captain Depp said it directly.
"Go ahead," Wang Xiucheng said, not immediately agreeing, but wanting to hear what it was about first.
I'm just a lousy basketball player, what can I possibly do to help him?
But the reason why Wang Xiucheng still came to listen to Depp talk about him was actually the same as the reason he helped Stallone.
Johnny Depp is, after all, a very famous actor in Hollywood, especially in China, where he is even more famous than Sylvester Stallone.
After all, many young people haven't seen First Blood from the last century, but they have seen Pirates of the Caribbean.
It would be great if we could find some Hollywood "flower vase" roles for our female celebrities.
Depp sighed, and instead of immediately mentioning his need for Wang Xiucheng's help, he asked first.
You know about my divorce, right?
Wang Xiucheng nodded upon hearing this.
The saga between Johnny Depp and his ex-wife Heard has dragged on for six or seven years, with endless dramatic twists and turns, providing sustenance for countless tabloids.
Depp even lost the opportunity to film Caribbean Island 6 because of this incident.
"I've had so many things to do these past few years, and my relationship with Hilde has taken up almost all of my energy, to the point that I've neglected to care for Lily."
Depp seemed to be talking to himself as he said, "Do you know how outrageous Lily is?"
"She actually found a girlfriend."
Wang Xiucheng was taken aback when he heard this. Was there really such a thing?
No wonder Depp looked so worried.
Who can accept that their daughter, whom they've raised for over 20 years, suddenly brings home another woman?
Don't mention Magic Johnson accepting EJ, or Will Smith accepting his son coming out.
They are Black themselves, and even if they disagree, they dare not speak out; they can only swallow their pride and suffer in silence.
“Lily, this girlfriend of hers, encouraged Lily to take on a role in…” Depp’s expression was grim, but he still said, “a role in a very explicit film, you know what I mean.”
Wang Xiucheng nodded and continued listening.
To this day, he still doesn't know what kind of help Depp needs from him.
"By the time I found out, it was too late. My money was frozen and I couldn't touch it until the case was completely closed."
"So even if I wanted to pay her to terminate the contract, it would be too late."
Depp sighed. "You may have noticed that Lily seems very well-behaved when she's with me, but she's actually quite rebellious."
Depp suddenly looked at Wang Xiucheng and said, "I was thinking, could you help me turn her back into a normal person?"
“It’s just…” Depp paused for a moment, “It’s just… to make her like men, to make her… normal.”
"I'm not saying you have to seduce her, I just want you to be normal."
Depp seemed worried that Wang Xiucheng might take the opportunity to do something else, so he quickly added a sentence.
Wang Xiucheng chuckled.
Is she going to use her good looks to seduce him?
It’s not impossible!
But I can't let my efforts go to waste.
Seeing Wang Xiucheng's hesitant look, Depp immediately said, "Consider it a favor I owe you."
Got it!
That's what I want.
Captain Depp did a favor, and Stallone did a favor.
For now, I've managed to find some decent resources for a few of the women in China.
"Okay, but you know, I can't guarantee anything."
Depp acted as if he hadn't heard the remark, as if he didn't believe Wang Xiucheng couldn't do it.
"Lily went to a place called Comet Bar. She said there's some kind of auction tonight. If you have time, you can go find her."
"I believe she will be very happy to see you."
Depp reminded her again, "You just need to make her a normal person, not really you..."
"I know, don't worry, it's not like I can't find women."
Wang Xiucheng waved his hand, which was a way of giving Depp, his father, a guarantee.
In fact, according to Wang Xiucheng's aesthetic standards, Depp's precious daughter is not a beauty at all, and is far less pretty than his older sisters.
"gone."
Wang Xiucheng opened the car door and headed towards Ma Wei and the other two who were waiting for him in the distance.
Depp watched Wang Xiucheng's departing figure and shook his head. He didn't know if this counted as inviting a wolf into the house.
"Bro, shall we go back to Beverly Hills?"
Ma Wei, who was squatting on the lawn smoking, saw Wang Xiucheng coming over and immediately threw his half-smoked cigarette on the ground and stomped it out.
Wang Xiucheng did not answer, but got into the back seat of the car.
Comet Bar?
It seems like this is the place Durant was referring to earlier.
It seems like I actually went there.
I just promised to spend time with Jenna and the kids today, so I had to let Jenna know.
Thinking of this, Wang Xiucheng took out his new phone, which he had just bought that day, and called Jenna.
"When are you coming back? The children are already asleep."
As soon as the call connected, Jenna's suggestive voice came through.
Wang Xiucheng gave a wry smile and explained, "Durant invited me to some kind of auction at a bar. He knows I'm alone and don't have any friends in Los Angeles, so I couldn't refuse."
"Okay, then go ahead, and remember to come back soon."
I didn't expect Jenna to agree so quickly.
So much so that Wang Xiucheng even doubted that he had misheard.
By the time Jenna realized what was happening, she had already hung up the phone.
Wang Xiucheng touched his stubble that had grown out and then called Durant again.
……
About half an hour later, Wang Xiucheng and Durant arrived at Sunset Boulevard, not far from Beverly Hills.
The parking lot was already full of cars, so quite a few people must have arrived.
Wang Xiucheng and Durant parked their car and arrived at a large two-story building.
There are security personnel at the entrance who are responsible for registration, and it seems that ordinary people cannot even get in.
"Gentlemen, according to the rules, you need to submit auction items if you want to enter."
When a heavily armed security guard saw Durant and Wang Xiucheng, he paused for a moment before speaking.
"Auction items?" Wang Xiucheng was taken aback. Was that so?
Durant pulled out one of his Nets jerseys from his bag.
"This is my autographed jersey, it should be okay, right?" Durant asked.
"of course."
The security guard gestured to the person wearing white gloves next to him to carefully put away his belongings.
He then looked at Wang Xiucheng, seemingly waiting for Wang Xiucheng's auction items.
"I wasn't prepared," Wang Xiucheng said somewhat awkwardly.
Durant didn't mention this situation either.
Just as Wang Xiucheng was considering whether he should just go home, a woman's voice rang out behind the two security guards.
“You can put up the opportunity to have dinner with me as an auction item; I’ll offer a starting price of ten thousand.”
