Famous didn't use its full strength in this jump. It had been able to jump very high in the past. Ever since it trained with Old Time Tea in the wild for a year, it had fully mastered the technique of exerting force. It could jump higher on the premise that its strength didn't change.
Roger was overjoyed. "Oh my God! Did you see that? Did you see that? This guy jumped over it! It really jumped over it! "
His men couldn't believe their eyes. This dog was too amazing. It didn't even need to run. It could jump so high on the spot...
Roger ran to Charles and said impatiently, "Mr. Charles, did you see that? Does this dog meet your requirements? To tell you the truth, I ran all over the nearby states and even wore out a few pairs of shoes before I finally found this dog. If it wasn't for your strong request, I really wouldn't have been willing to sell it … "
He thought that Famous was a rare commodity and should be able to sell it for a good price. The men in the film company were all stupid people with a lot of money. He had to extort a lot of money from them.
Charles ignored him. Instead, he walked to Famous and squatted down to observe it at a close distance. Once again, he confirmed that the dog looked exactly like his family's big star. They didn't even need makeup to pass off as the real thing. It was a German Shepherd with an excellent bloodline.
"What's its name?" he turned around and asked Roger.
"Uh... name... what's its name again..." Roger stared and anxiously winked at his men. However, his men didn't know the dog's name, so they could only shrug helplessly.
"Yeah, didn't you just say that you found this dog? You should know its name, right? "Charles looked at him coldly.
"This... this..." Roger swallowed awkwardly and answered, "It... its name is Romm. Yes, its name is Romm!"
"Really?" Charles came from a big city full of deceit. How could he not see through Roger's little trick? He said to Famous, "Romm, your name is Romm?"
Famous shook its head. "That's not my name. I am... I am..."
Charles didn't understand its words, but he could understand that it was shaking its head to deny it. He couldn't help but be stunned.
Then, Charles' gaze fell on its black leather collar. There was a shiny metal nameplate that reflected the sunlight as it shook its head. There seemed to be some kind of writing on it.
"Come on, buddy. Let me see what's written on it." He reached out and pinched the metal nameplate, reading it carefully.
Charles frowned deeply. What were the words on the metal nameplate? He did not recognize these strange square characters, but he did recognize the string of Arabic numerals beside them.
"1323 …" He read the string of numbers softly. "What is this? Is that your name? Which country does your master come from? Why did it give you a string of numbers as a name? "
It couldn't explain that the string of numbers was actually Zhang Zian's phone number, and the Chinese characters were "Amazing Fate Pet Shop."
Charles saw that it did not shake its head this time, so he patted its head and stood up. "Well, then I will call you 13, because the beginning of this string of numbers is 13, and your ranking is also 13. What a coincidence."
Ranking? What ranking?
Famous looked up at him blankly.
Charles laughed and said, "Do you know why I chose you? Because you are very similar to our company's big star, and you also have excellent athletic ability, so I will take you back to be its stunt double. To ensure the safety of the big star, we have currently prepared 12 stunt doubles for it, and you are number 13. Of course, I know the number 13 is not very auspicious, and today is Friday, but … whatever, I will call you 13. "
Stunt double?
When Famous heard this word, its heart suddenly shrank. Its blood became extremely cold, and it almost lost its balance!
Charles misunderstood it and said with a smile, "Are you very excited and honored? You know, our big star is the most famous dog in the civilized world today. It is a supreme honor to be its stunt double. Most dogs can only beg for it. "
Roger rubbed his hands and said with a flattering smile, "Mr. Charles, can we talk about the price now?"
Charles took out a check from his arms and threw it to him without looking at it. "Take it."
Roger caught the check in a hurry, and immediately opened his eyes wide in surprise. The money was higher than the asking price he had expected, and it was enough to pay off his gambling debts.
"I don't want to be a stunt double! I don't want to be a stunt double! "Famous suddenly roared. It wanted to escape. If it could not escape from this terrible world, at least it wanted to escape from here!
However, just as it took a step, a gunshot sounded, and a bullet drilled into the soil in front of it, raising a large amount of soil. This was a warning shot, and it was less than one foot away from being hit.
"You bastard, you want to run?" Roger said, gnashing his teeth. He had two revolvers in his hands, and smoke was curling up from the muzzle of one of them. He had already regarded Famous as a money tree, so how could he let it run away?
Roger pulled out the gun, aimed, and fired so fast that Famous could not see it at all. In the face of these two pitch-black muzzles, it knew that it was absolutely impossible for it to dodge. Even if it relied on Crisis Premonition to dodge the first shot, the remaining bullets would rain down on it like a storm, turning it into a sieve.
No matter who this Imagined Landscape belonged to, it was infinitely close to reality, just like Old Time Tea's world. If it died in this world, would its body in the real world also die with it? It was not sure, and it did not dare to take this risk.
Charles sighed. "Don't think about running away. Follow me to the company and be a stunt double. It's much better than following people like him. At least you can fill your stomach."
Roger's eyes turned. He had already seen the generosity of the film company. If he could join the film industry, he would be rich. Why would he stay on his poor farm?
"Mr. Charles! Mr. Charles! Listen to me! I have a suggestion! " Roger was afraid that Charles would leave in a hurry, so he quickly said, "You see, this dog is too wild. It always wants to run away. How about you take me with you? As long as I am here, it will never run away! "
"You?" Charles looked at him suspiciously. "What can you do?"
"I can train dogs!" Roger pulled out the horsewhip from the back of his waist and waved it. He looked ferocious. "The trick is to beat them until they are obedient. With all due respect, of course, a decent person like you can't do this kind of thing with your own hands. It will dirty your white shirt cuffs. It's perfect for a country bumpkin like me to do it. "
Charles thought about it and felt that he could give it a try. Anyway, there was no loss. "Okay, bring 13 to the company tomorrow."
