Chapter 755: A Private Matter
Professional assistants are different, in Boa's handbag, in addition to a digital camera, there is also a Polaroid.
Chu Qiankun didn't know how many treasures there were in her small bag, and when she was outside, she took so many photos and took pictures, but she didn't even see her use the Polaroid.
Is it for this moment?
said that the four people are all fans, so naturally none of them can be missing from this photo.
With such a hard relationship between John and Cameron, this photo can't be taken less, two people take a group photo, three people take a group photo, four or five people go up, and finally there is even a big group photo.
Of course, because one person had to take the photo, this group photo was also taken twice, with dozens or hundreds of oak barrels of red wine in the background.
In the end, Chu Qiankun put his arm on Cameron's shoulder alone and took a group photo with different expressions.
According to people who saw this photo later, Chu Qiankun was smiling and proud, while Cameron looked aggrieved and quite unwilling.
The weird atmosphere, the weird behavior, in the incredible, everyone is doing everything tacitly.
It was a small gathering of private friends, and Cameron and the others would not have been enthusiastic enough to invite them to participate.
The arrival of the four of Chu Qiankun was an accident, the group photo was taken, and the name was signed, and the next step should be to leave this wine cellar.
Walking out of the wooden door again and walking in the narrow tunnel, the four of them no longer had the worries they had before, their mood was much lighter, their steps were also bright, and even the muddy lights became a lot brighter at this time.
Chu Qiankun's footsteps slowed down slowly, and gradually fell behind the third girl.
In my memory, Cameron at this time should be filming the historical masterpiece "Avatar", a 3D blockbuster with an investment of 500 million meters and a global box office of nearly 3 billion meters.
With Cameron's character, at such a critical moment, he should be busy for a moment, how could he have the leisure to hold such a drinking party in San Francisco.
It's obviously not like his style.
Chu Qiankun thought deeply, his brows were furrowed very tightly, his steps were very slow, and he stopped before the spiral staircase.
Ouyang Duxue, who had already walked up the stairs for more than a dozen steps and was talking to Ma Lilian, finally discovered Chu Qiankun's abnormality.
So, under her interaction, the three girls also stopped.
Seeing that Chu Qiankun was thinking about the problem, they didn't bother, didn't make a sound, just walked back down the stairs silently, and stood quietly beside Chu Qiankun.
When I met Cameron, everything began to become clear.
Lao Ka has been sharpening his sword for ten years, and there is only one film being filmed, and he has not taken into account other movies.
Ma Lilian came to see him this time, probably to seek a role in "Avatar", but obviously she failed.
History has also proved that there are no Chinese or Chinese actors in the movie "Avatar", and Ma Lilian's interview has long been destined to be such a result.
Chu Qiankun has only two interests in this matter.
First, how Marilyn, or the Flowstone Music behind her, "hooked up" with Cameron;
Second, why would Cameron give her an invitation to a drinking party after failing the interview, and let her participate in such a drinking party where he was playing?
Lao Ka is not such a person to deal with, but now he has done one after another things that make Chu Qiankun feel incredible.
"Mary... Sister Lian. In terms of Ma Lilian's title, Chu Qiankun decided to follow Ouyang Duxue's name.
is older than him, so my sister will not suffer.
"Well," Ma Lilian pursed her mouth, and she was not particularly happy to call her sister to Chu Qiankun: "Something?"
Chu Qiankun stepped on the steps with one foot and pressed the wall with one hand: "How did you get in touch with Lao Ka, with his status in the rivers and lakes, if you want to find an actor, the big names will go up." And his new movie should have been filming for several years, how could he let you participate in the interview at this point in time?"
"I don't know the details that are too specific, but Sister Pei told me that James took a fancy to the copyright of one of our company's songs and wanted to use it in his new movie. The company used this song to make a deal with him in exchange for such an interview opportunity. ”
Chu Qiankun was interested, and Ma Lilian did not hide it, and told him the truth.
"Flowstone is fine. exchanging copyright for a doomed and useless opportunity, the company attaches great importance to you!" Chu Qiankun smiled: "What song?
"No, if it's the theme song, you think the company would use such a good opportunity so casually. I heard that it was an episode, and it is unknown whether it will be used in the end. Ma Lilian smiled bitterly.
Flowstone Records is okay for her, but it's not that good yet.
Chu Qiankun nodded, it is understandable to say this, and this so-called song should not be used in the movie.
"Is the invitation to this reception really given to you by Lao Ka, when did he become so polite?" Chu Qiankun asked the second doubt in his heart.
"How do I feel, you know James very well. Ma Lilian asked with a side face: "It's just an invitation to the cocktail party, why can't I give it." ”
Chu Qiankun shook his head and said: "You would say such a thing, which means that although you have lived in the United States for so long, you really don't know about Lao Ka." ”
"But this invitation was given to Sister Lian by director Cameron personally!" Bao'er said affirmatively.
It's just that when she said this, she glanced at Ma Lilian with strange eyes.
"I believe the invitation was given to you by the old card, but I believe there are other reasons for this. Chu Qiankun said lightly.
The tone is very determined, because you see a smile in the corner of Ma Lilian's eyes, proving that his guess is correct.
"Okay, you're amazing. She gave me an invitation, which really has nothing to do with the company, but because of my personal reasons. Ma Lilian smiled approvingly: "Do you know what nationality I am?"
"You, isn't it Huaxia?" asked Chu Qiankun in surprise.
"Yes and no, I have dual citizenship. I was born in the Pearl of the Orient, but I still have the nationality of the United States. ”
This is equivalent to her privacy, but Ma Lilian still said it frankly, and it was also unknown to Bao'er who quietly pulled her dress in the back.
"Dual citizenship, how did you do that?"
At this time, Chu Qiankun was not only surprised, but also interested.
Standing and chatting was a bit dry, so I lifted my butt and sat directly on the steps, and let the three girls sit with me.
He is trousers, it doesn't matter if he sits, the three girls are all evening dresses, how can they sit down.
So, they all shook their heads.
"Can you tell that I'm a half-race? Ma Lilian asked Ouyang Duan and Chu Qiankun this time.
"I can see it, but this phenomenon is very common in the Pearl of the Orient. Where are you doing?"
Because the three girls were standing, Chu Qiankun sat a few steps higher again, and then leaned against the wall, making a gesture of listening to the story.
"My mother is from the Pearl of the Orient, and my father is from the United States. However, when I was ten years old, he crashed on a plane. ”
More than ten years have already diluted the sadness in her heart, so Ma Lilian, who talks about the past, seems very indifferent.
"I'm sorry!" Chu Qiankun sat down and said apologetically.
I didn't expect Ma Lilian to have such a past, but her mother's genes seem to be quite strong, and she didn't leave too many foreigners on her body.
This situation is rare, and the average mixed-race will be more like his father.
"It's okay, it was a long time ago. Ma Lilian didn't mind.
It's just that what does this have to do with Cameron's invitation to her?
Although he felt that it was a bit far away and a little out of the topic, Chu Qiankun did not interrupt Ma Lilian's narration.
It turned out that after Ma Lilian's father died, she had been living with her mother in the Pearl of the Orient.
Due to her talent and hobby of singing since childhood, with the encouragement of her mother, Marilyn began to enter the music industry.
Then, by chance, I was fortunate to be discovered by Sister Pei, and I was lucky enough to sign in Flowstone Records.
Because she is born with the advantages of language and nationality, Liushi Records has high expectations for her, hoping that she can help the company achieve something in the development of overseas music markets, especially in the United States.
Therefore, Ma Lilian obviously has a good foundation and popularity in the Pearl of the Orient, but Liushi still keeps her overseas.
In order to hope that one day, Ma Lilian can also have some achievements in the United States, and by the way, create the fame of Liushi overseas.
In these years overseas, mainly in the United States, Ma Lilian has also worked very hard.
Sometimes, I can also win one or two small awards at some well-known music festivals, and cheer for popularity.
However, even if it is such an award achievement, it can only help her expand her popularity in the Pearl of the Orient, and it still does not help much in the United States.
She is still a third-tier singer wandering at the end, and there are very few people who really know her abroad, like her, and listen to her songs.
After many years of no results, the top management of Flowstone has slowly lost confidence in her, and the resource support for her has been decreasing year by year.
Rumor has it that they are already looking for other potential newcomers to replace Marilyn.
And all indications show that this is by no means groundless.
The company is already working on letting her put the focus of her career back to the Pearl of the Orient, after all, there is still a good market for Ma Lilian over there, and she can also create a lot of value for the company.
This interview in San Francisco can also be said to be Liushi's last fight against Ma Lilian, and this is her last chance.
Moreover, this last chance was won by Sister Pei for her with a lot of thought.
Failure means that Flowstone will completely change her attitude towards her and will replan her career roadmap.
In fact, Ma Lilian's transformation interview was indeed a failure.
Just when she was disheartened and forced to smile and was about to leave with Bao'er.
James Carmey called out to her, saying that he had a personal matter to talk to her about, and asked Boa to go out first.
