[US Entertainment] Hollywood Fame

Chapter 127

"Encore! Encore! Encore...!"

Under the sound of the tide, Christine walked back without hesitation, and returned to the center of the stage with a smile.

"Okay...since you're asking, so...here's a new song that Shawn Mendes and I recently wrote called "Inmyblood," I hope you like it."

new song?

Before the people off the stage could react, Christine was already sitting in front of the grand piano on the stage, pressing the keys with his fingers.

"Help me, it's as if the walls around me are crumbling down here and there are times when I feel like I'm going to give up, but I can't give up."

Christine once again recalled the dark moment before and after the news. Although she was strong and stubborn on the surface, she was actually on the verge of collapse at that time. She could only rely on her instincts to pursue the front line Bright, then grab hard.

She complained and hated herself, why on earth did she go to Argentina, why was she fooled so stupidly, she was no longer pure, she had lived a new life, why couldn't she learn the lesson?

And when she fell into the abyss and was about to drown her in self-pity, the album "13" was like a savior, awakening the self who was immersed in anger and resentment and seemed to be unable to hold on.

"The courage to persevere is surging in my blood!"

Christine's blue eyes gradually became firmer, she sang loudly, her voice was slightly broken because of her hoarseness, but she conveyed the determination and persistence in her singing more clearly.

Tom Cruise looked directly at Christine, who was sitting in front of the piano and sang in the background, feeling his ankle that was still aching after a plaster cast, and remembered the diagnosis he heard from the doctor at the time.

[He may no longer be able to walk like a normal person. 】

For Tom, it was like a bolt from the blue.

Just a few hours ago, he was still running on the set, jumping between buildings, but at this moment, the doctor said that even if he recovered, he would no longer be able to walk normally?

what does this mean?

He has now successfully transformed because of the "Mission: Impossible" series, and action scenes have become a symbol of him. If he can't walk normally, how to shoot fighting scenes, let alone those dangerous drag racing and jumping helicopters. .

This is equivalent to ruining his entire career.

At that moment, he was a little disheartened.

Even though his team did not lose hope in him afterwards and actively supported him to start rebuilding, Tom followed suit one by one, but in his mental state, he still spent the past two months in a daze.

On the surface, he is still the smiling Tom Cruise, but anyone who really knows him knows that his mood is very unstable, and he may explode at any time.

Everyone began to take care of his emotions with fear, and took some care in both words and actions, and this kind of behavior made Tom's mood even worse.

Although he still possesses a huge amount of wealth, the loss of the goal he has been pursuing and the blow of his career have caused some changes in his whole temperament.

But he still loves his daughter, so he rushed to New York as soon as he was able to walk. He wanted to surprise Sophie and he had already arrived backstage, but was attracted by the singing on the stage.

He couldn't help but followed the direction of the singing and walked out with a cane. The staff along the way saw that he was Tom Cruise and didn't stop him, but just took care that he wouldn't fall.

Until he got to the bottom of the stage.

"It's not in my nature to give up!"

Christine couldn't help but stood up and sang while holding the microphone tightly. She sang so emotionally that the corners of her eyes began to shed tears. The people off the stage frantically began to sing along with the repeated lyrics. The shocking chorus almost overturned the entire venue.

Tom felt as if the only thing left in the world was Christine's singing, and the sentence "Giving up does not exist in my nature!" awakened him suddenly from the confusion during this period like a flash of lightning.

It suddenly occurred to him that he used to take the test for a helicopter driver's license for a scene. In order to make a scene more explosive and realistic, he practiced rock climbing day and night, regardless of the danger of his life. In the difficult skydiving scene, he performed a total of 106 extreme skydiving, each time risking his life.

Wouldn't he be afraid, wouldn't be afraid?

In fact, this is not the case. He is also a human being, and as a human being, he will have fear and fear.

But he never showed it, because he knew that once he couldn't hold on, no matter those around him who trained with him or worked with him, they wouldn't be able to hold on.

He is the backbone of their center, he cannot fall, and he is absolutely not allowed to fall.

If he agrees to use a substitute once, then this one time will become twice, and it will become countless times, and that kind of "Mission: Impossible" is still the "Mission: Impossible" that he really wants to shoot and the audience is willing to pay for it ?

"Giving up is not in my blood!"

In the second half of the song, Shawn Mendes also appeared on the stage. The superimposition of the male and female voices of the two people made the song magnificent and stirred people's hearts. Many people were crying in the audience. It seems that the lyrics have poked the hidden pain in my heart that I least want to reveal.

The corners of Tom's eyes were also a little red, and he looked down at his ankle covered in plaster as a cover-up. The dull pain there seemed to remind him how serious the fracture was due to the accident.

Didn't the doctor say that he will not be able to walk normally in the future?

But this world is always full of miracles. He himself is a miracle. Isn't it a miracle that he has become a Hollywood superstar from nothing?

He is now over half a century old, but he is still taking part in all kinds of difficult fight scenes and dangerous drag racing and skydiving scenes. Isn't it a miracle?

It's just that he broke his ankle. Could it be that he will really be as the doctor said?

He wanted to see if another miracle would happen to him.

He will never give up.

Not only for this "Mission: Impossible 6", which has not yet been filmed, but also for his entire career.

At this time, Tom Cruise became extremely determined. He clenched his crutches tightly, took a deep look at Christine who was saying goodbye to the audience on the stage, and then returned to the backstage on crutches.

Coincidentally, Suri Cruise was also recovering from Kristen's stage, and saw Tom's figure as soon as he turned his head.

"Daddy!"

She hurried forward and hugged Tom's waist, her eyes were full of surprise: "Did you come to Christine's concert too?"

Tom couldn't help but put a smile on his face. He put the crutches together and put them aside, then sat down with the other foot supporting his center of gravity, and touched the top of Suri's head: "Yes, more Come and see you."

Su Rui obediently sat beside Tom. She glanced at Tom's crutch beside him, and then at his leg, with worry in her eyes: "Daddy, your leg..."

"Didn't I tell you a long time ago? It's a small matter, and it will be fine soon." Tom smiled lightly, but he was still very relieved. It seems that Suri has been well-behaved during the tour with Christine. Not a lot.

"Really?" Su Rui didn't believe it. She wasn't a child anymore. Now she was in her teens and understood what a broken ankle meant to her father, let alone the rumors on the Internet.

"Really." Tom nodded seriously: "Look, last time you saw me lying on the hospital bed, I can move around freely now."

Su Rui thought about it, and felt that what he said was quite reasonable, so she nodded: "Okay then."

Not long after, Christine came off the stage drenched in sweat, just in time to see Tom and Suri, she stepped forward to hug Tom in surprise, pretending to complain and said, "Why didn't you tell me in advance?"

"Then there will be no surprises." Tom also smiled. He pretended to be a bit disgusted and pulled the T-shirt that was wet with Christine's sweat: "Hurry up and change your clothes, you're sweating all over."

"Tom!"

Christine immediately patted him on the shoulder, wrinkled his nose, and was hugged tightly by Sean who came down from the stage afterwards: "It's okay, I don't dislike it."

Christine immediately laughed again, turned around and took Sean's arm: "Come on, let's go eat something, leave them alone, I'm almost starving to death now."

After finishing speaking, he hugged Sean's arm arrogantly and pulled him to walk in another direction. Suri and Tom behind him showed the same speechless expression.

In fact, as soon as Christine came off the stage and saw Tom's appearance, she already noticed that his mental state seemed to be much better than when she visited the hospital last time. When she went to the hospital last time, she was actually too busy to take care of herself Was a bit surprised that Tom was willing to send Suri over to tour with her.

Although Tom was in a bad state at that time, he did not forget the promise he had made with little Suri. Instead, he raised it to Christine after asking Suri in detail. How could Christine be unwilling? ?It was originally her proposal, so naturally she solemnly agreed.

At this time, since Tom came to New York so late, the main purpose must be to see Su Rui, and she took Sean away to give the father and daughter more time alone.

They haven't seen each other for a while.

Recalling the smile on Tom's face when he lowered his head and chatting with Suri just now, Christine couldn't help showing an auntie smile, and Sean asked her if she thought of anything interesting.

"Well, it's really interesting."

Christine had a smirk on her face, and she leaned into Sean's ear: "Since Tom is here, let's..."

The author has something to say:
