Chapter 671: Meiyu started in 1997
The city is called Los Angeles.
Located on the Pacific coast of the southwestern United States, the mild climate makes for spring all year round, with an average daily temperature of around 20 degrees Celsius in November.
Los Angeles has many famous image symbols, such as Disneyland, the Lakers, Beverly Hills, and the famous Hollywood.
A certain block, outside a fast-food restaurant.
The waiter had already come out three times, and he was targeting a tall, thin Asian man in front of a large glass window six feet from the door.
Don't go, don't enter the door, just stand there staring at the window.
If it weren't for the fact that he was well-dressed and didn't look like a homeless man, the waiter would have called the police.
"Alas......"
I don't know how long it took, but the man sighed softly and withdrew his confused gaze.
The glass window reflects himself, tall and handsome, with an extraordinary temperament, with a touching charm in every gesture, and even a little younger.
But I was confused and couldn't figure out what was going on.
Obviously, one second, he was still eating and drinking on the other side of the distant ocean, in a rural village, and the next second he came to the United States.
Come on!
What about my No. 1 film company in the mainland? What about my goddaughters who are full of flowers? What about my pigs, cows, sheep, and geese that I say I will kill?
The man shouted unwillingly in his heart: "I still have two daughters-in-law who are like flowers!!"
"Mr. Xu?"
"Mr. Xu?"
"Huh, it's over?"
"Well, I bought something, I'm sorry to keep you waiting. ”
Lao Song's girlfriend, Miss Achu, shook her shopping bag, with an unfamiliar shyness and politeness.
Xiao Mo was very suspicious and asked, "Boss, why are you standing here?" I see you gritting your teeth. ”
"You don't understand. While you're shopping, I've already constructed a postmodernist drama that involves literature, love, ethics, pig slaughter, and so on......"
"Wow, that's amazing!" Xiao Mo exclaimed.
“......”
Achu rolled his eyes, this friend of Lao Song was too sand sculpture.
In fact, she was very puzzled that Sunshine Pictures had just gained a foothold in Hong Kong and should have been steady, but suddenly acquired a Hollywood company.
She also thought that Lao Song was presumptuous and wanted to learn from Golden Harvest to open the American market, and she didn't want this friend to be the leader, so she asked herself to come over to help.
"Didi!"
A used Chevrolet drove up, pulled up on the side of the road, and leaned out of a chubby white man: "Hey, I guess I shouldn't be late." ”
"Jerry, you're just in time...... Okay, you don't have to come down, it's too much trouble for you to go up and down. ”
The man laughed, his chin was white and round, and he had a good temper.
Several people got into the car and drove to their accommodation. Jerry was very talkative and said, "Seriously sir, you should buy your own car." It's really inconvenient to not have a car in the United States. ”
"That's what you have to recommend?"
The other party, Balabala, went from old Ford to Lamborghini, and then to the United States.
Xiao Mo looked at it as if it was the real thing, and asked, "Boss, do you really want to buy a car?"
"Buy. ”
"Is it easy to get a domestic driver's license?"
"Whatever, let's talk about it. ”
"Boss ......"
Little Mork paused and couldn't help but say, "I found out that you came to the United States, and you became very prodigal." ”
"Tsk, you walked around today, how do you feel?"
"The car is more high, and the wear is exposed. And it's too hot this day, it's like winter, I have a layer of white sweat on my body, and I don't adapt to it at all. ”
"You can't say that, do as the locals do, you should say 'oh, this damn weather'!"
"Oh, what the hell weather!"
"Not bad. ”
Xu Fei nodded with satisfaction, and was very enthusiastic about planning a travel route for Xiao Mo: "It's your first time here, you have to have more fun." Let's go to the San Fernando Valley first......"
"What for?"
"A film base that is green, loved by the public, and beneficial to physical and mental health. ”
"Oh, comrades on the literary front?"
"Yes, the literary front. ”
Chevrolet turned around and drove into a villa area.
In the 80s and early 90s, the United States experienced a severe housing bubble. The story of a man who lost $1.2 billion and was on the verge of bankruptcy managed to survive the real estate boom again and turn around in one fell swoop......
That's right, it's Comrade Founding!
Nowadays, the real estate market is functioning healthily, and the villa area is worth a lot of money. Jerry had already seen it once, and he was still shocked, only to see the three people walk into the two villas in a big way.
Oh my God, he's 35 years old, and he doesn't have enough money to buy a house, and he can't afford those taxes.
"Crazy, it must be crazy......"
Jerry drove away, shaking his head: This year is really terrible! First, the company went bankrupt and was acquired, and then a few inexplicable rich people ran out, but fortunately he kept the original team and did not lose his job.
There are 1,300 companies in Hollywood, and they are dying as fast as they are born.
His company was small, having only been established the year before. The boss is a candy merchant, likes movies, and after having a little wealth, he started an independent production company.
After making two films, even the distributor could not be found, so I had to go bankrupt.
And he was born in a professional class and has been in the mix for many years, so it was easy to serve as the director of the production department...... Now he is reduced to a driver. Eating with a mouthful, in fact, it has been in contact with the next family.
He is not optimistic about the prospects of the new boss, Hong Kong, who understands Hollywood, and is not Jackie Chan.
"Dididi!"
Just as he was thinking, the phone rang, and Jerry answered: "Hey man, I hope it's good news." ”
"I hope too, but I'm sorry, the big guys don't want to waste time on our resumes, they'd rather go and give alms to a stray dog. ”
"Oh, okay, okay! Looks like I'm going to be a driver for a while. ”
"You should pray that the outlanders will not back down easily, so that you can stay longer. ”
"I hope so...... Alas, this is Hollywood. ”
"yes, it's Hollywood. ”
............
In the villa, Miss Achu finished talking to Lao Song on the phone.
The boyfriend was mysterious and refused to talk about Mr. Xu. And she knows very little, only that she is the boss of the mainland, has filmed a lot of TV series, and cooperated with Sunshine in a "The Wind", which will be released in Hong Kong.
But, but what!
She looked at the villa and didn't dare sleep in that bed.
Born in an ordinary family, he relied on hard study, went to study in the United States, and outsiders looked at high-paying and high positions, but he actually didn't enjoy anything.
“......”
She touched the wall decoration and asked Mr. Xu the reason for it, but she only said that it was borrowed by an American friend.
, what friend of yours in the United States can borrow your villa?!
............
Inside the other building.
Xiao Mo criticized the paid adult channel in various ways, and Teacher Xu read the newspaper on the side.
"The U.S. Department of Justice has opened an investigation into Microsoft under the provisions of the antitrust law.
The Ministry of Justice believes that Microsoft is suspected of monopolizing the market by incorporating its Internet browsers into operating systems and selling them together......"
This is the largest antitrust lawsuit in the history of the United States.
In the first quarter of next year, Microsoft's stock plummeted, the company lost $8.3 billion, and Bill Gates's fortune was 1.8 billion less.
But soon the stock market rose, and Microsoft would become the world's largest company with a market capitalization of $345.8 billion. The following year, it reached $604.1 billion.
"It's time to fry a wave......"
Xu Fei holds a large number of Microsoft shares in his hand, and needs to cash out when the profits of the financial turmoil have not been recovered.
At the same time, it is also necessary to shift the target, such as Apple, which is the return of Master Qiao, and Amazon, which is listed this year......
Amazon's stock skyrocketed 23 times by the end of next year.
(No!)
