Chapter 16 Jimmy Smith Isn't Eminem
"Who are you?"
After closing the toilet door, Jimmy Smith acted extremely coldly in the face of the greetings from strangers.
After all, the movie world is not the real world, and the male protagonist is not Eminem himself, it is just a reference. Although this movie is said to be a semi-autobiographical story, the essential plot is far from Eminem's own experience.
Su Chen knew that he could not regard the person in front of him as Eminem, so he got to the point very directly, "You can call me Eminham, I know your name is Jimmy Smith, your friends like to call you B-Rabbit, your girlfriend just broke up with you, and took your car. You don't have a place to live now, and you are hesitating whether to live with your mother..."
"** is here to laugh at me?" Although it's not true Eminem, little Jimmy's temper is not inferior to Amme at all, and she can be said to be a little bit too bad.
Seeing Jimmy getting angry, Su Chen laughed instead, "No! Of course not, why should I laugh at you? Let's say that, I like you very much..."
"Get out! I'm not a fucking gay man, I want to find someone selling ass to go to the gay bar!" Jimmy's face became increasingly ugly, and she was about to burst out.
"**Shut up!" Su Chen was also annoyed. Without saying a word, he reached into his chest and took out a silver-gray pistol.
Jimmy subconsciously shrank back, probably because she felt a little embarrassed, and immediately showed an indifferent look, "Want to scare me? This is Detroit. Do you know how many people outside have guns? Don't think that just one gun can..."
"I said, shut up!" Su Chen put a gun on Jimmy's head, finally calming down the guy who was not idle for a moment.
"Now it's my turn to say it." As he said, Su Chen stuffed the gun into the holster under his armpit. "If my tone just made you misunderstand something, then I'm sorry. I mean, I like and appreciate the way you sing, so I want to make friends with you."
"Pointing a gun at my head to make friends with me?" Jimmy looked sarcastic and sarcastic, and she didn't believe what Su Chen said.
Su Chen was actually not surprised by Jimmy's reaction. This guy was simply an angry young man in the United States, and he was a severely tertiary patient. He didn't wake up until the end of the film and completed his transformation and sublimation.
Faced with such a young man with a serious guardianship, what Su Chen had to do was to directly express his sincerity with his actions.
The next second, Jimmy's eyes were wide open and almost protruded.
"I think you know very well what this is. Since you don't believe what I say, why not use it to tell you." Su Chen took out a stack of 100-dollar bills from his pocket and shook it in front of Jimmy.
For Jimmy Smith, who lives at the bottom of Detroit, he has never seen so much money in his life!
Just like the ideas and ways of spending money that Americans always hold, let alone poor dicks like Jimmy, even middle-class families may not be able to deposit thousands of dollars in cash.
So when Jimmy saw Su Chen taking out at least 10,000 US dollars in a row and put it in front of him, he couldn't avoid being stunned.
"Ahh! It seems that money is the most useful. Are you interested in being friends with me now?"
Jimmy coughed twice, and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "What do you want me to do? Let me say it first, I'm not interested in delivering goods for you..."
"Transport a lot of goods!" Su Chen rolled his eyes. He paid and worked hard. At such a big price, was it just to let Emu transport drugs for him?
"Not shipping? Then what do you want me to do?" Jimmy couldn't help but wonder. What else can be made in Detroit besides drugs? At least he had never heard of it.
Su Chen put the money back in his pocket, snapped his fingers and said, "Let's find a place to sit first. Anyway, you are not in good condition today. Even if you go on stage, you will definitely not be able to say a word. It's better not to do such a shameful thing."
"How do you know I can't say a word?" Jimmy was very dissatisfied and underestimated, but Su Chen just waved his hand and walked towards the gate without saying anything.
When he thought of the thick stack of money and his recent situation, Jimmy gritted his teeth and finally followed Su Chen to leave the toilet with him as Su Chen said.
Two black men happened to come in outside the door. When they saw that an Asian boy came out of the toilet, they all showed an incredible look. Not only the two of them, but other black men in the underground passage also stopped talking and looked at Su Chen with a very strange look.
Su Chen knew very well why this was. The movie world was in the 1990s, and the background was Detroit, where the real world had filed for bankruptcy. This ghost place, whether it was the movie world or the real world, can be described as hell on earth - especially those black gathering areas.
Even the male protagonist Jimmy Smith is also an alien among the blacks in the movie world. Who made him the only white rapper on the ring?
Under this special background, there are very few Asians in Detroit, and they will not get idle and enter the black gathering area, so Su Chen inevitably became the focus of everyone's attention.
As the saying goes, if you have a gun in your hand, you won’t feel panic. That’s what Su Chen thinks. The Glock 17 in his arms is not used to bluff people. If these black men think he is easy to bully and rob him, he will really dare to draw his gun and shoot!
Anyway, it’s not the real world, and you don’t need to worry about anything even if you’re beaten to death.
Fortunately, Su Chen's calmness made the blacks feel doubtful until he left the underground passage, and no one planned to cause trouble for Su Chen.
Perhaps because of the time difference, Su Chen did not see Jimmy's friends. Jimmy also subconsciously forgot to say hello to his friends because she followed Su Chen away from the club.
A quarter of an hour later, the two of them came to a fast food restaurant - it was not that Su Chen was stingy and reluctant to invite Eminem to a good meal, but it was because the black area in Detroit was nothing to have, and they were so poor that they would die of poverty, unless they took a bus to the rich area a few kilometers away.
However, Su Chen mainly wants to chat with Emu, so it doesn’t matter where he goes to chat.
Em - Jimmy himself doesn't care. He is still worried about where to stay tonight. It is of course good if someone is willing to treat him.
"Select whatever you want to eat yourself, don't save money for me."
Su Chen's generousness made Jimmy secretly complain that no matter how much you eat in a fast food restaurant like this, it would only cost more than ten or twenty dollars.
The two ordered burgers, Italian pies, French fries and fried eggs, and they ate them with Coke.
In fact, Su Chen was not hungry at all. He had just had supper before coming, and it was mainly Jimmy who was eating. This guy was obviously hungry, and almost all the things on the table were eaten by him alone.
After smearing it, Jimmy wiped her mouth and burped, "Tell me, what do you want me to do?"
Su Chen shook his head helplessly. The character played by Emu in the movie is extremely defensive due to various reasons, just like a small animal with a glass heart, which will make you feel furious if you make a little disturbance.
"I'll say it all the time, I'm not going to let you do anything. On the contrary, you should see me as an opportunity, a good opportunity to get out of your current life!"
Jimmy looked at Su Chen with a blank expression, and suddenly curled her lips disdainfully for a while, "Just rely on that amount of money? I admit that you have some money, but so what? Do you know what I want to do? What do you think that little money is enough to do?"
"Of course I know!" Su Chen looked solemn, continued to disguise himself as a charlatan, and said slowly in a mysterious and unfathomable manner: "You want to be a rapper, come up with records, make a lot of money, get rid of this ghost place, and live a life of a rich man. I'm right?"
"So what if you know? Can you realize my wish?" Jimmy's face looked even more gloomy. A person who had a long-term unsatisfactory life, coupled with his cynical mentality, no wonder he would hit walls everywhere at the beginning of the movie world.
"What if I can really realize your wish? How do you plan to repay me?" Su Chen didn't plan to play tricks with Jimmy. Besides, Americans don't take this trick. Reasonable efforts must be rewarded. This is the American spirit of founding the country, so he pointed directly at the core of the problem - hoping to get rewards from Jimmy.
"Are you an agent?" Jimmy frowned and suddenly became interested, but then she thought it was wrong, "No, you can't be an agent, you only... I've never seen an agent as young as you."
"Don't think too much, you will never guess my identity." Su Chen snapped his fingers and signaled the waiter not far away to check out the bill. "First find you a place to live. I have a lot of songs here, and you need to listen carefully. I dare say you don't want to sleep tonight."
When Jimmy heard that there was a song to listen to, he relaxed. At least he didn't have to worry that Su Chen was a member of the gang.
After the two left the fast food restaurant, Jimmy originally wanted to find a motel, but Su Chen was not very relieved. After all, the motel was the same as a small hotel around the domestic train station, and he didn't want Jimmy to have any mistakes.
As a result, Su Chen paid for the money. Jimmy stayed in a star-rated hotel for the first time in her life. Although it was only four stars, it was enough for him to enjoy it.
Before entering the hotel, Su Chen threw away the garbage bag on Jimmy's hand without hesitation. In his words, from now on, Jimmy will learn to live another life.
