At the bottom of the Luen Mei Building, luxury cars parked at the door from time to time, and brightly dressed male and female stars were led to the VIP elevator by the guests, and took turns to take the elevator up to the banquet hall located on the west side of the building. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

I have to say that a star is a star, there are TV circles, music circles, film circles, and drama circles...... Although the circles are different, the leaders of each circle have been friends for a long time, and they can often call each other by name at a glance.

After greeting acquaintances, the celebrities naturally formed a small circle to chat, but their voices were very low, and they easily did not affect others, which was much more obscure than the words in the middle school classroom.

"Eh~~ You say, what do you mean by Michael Media and Pyra League holding this party this time?"

"I don't know ......"

"If you don't know their purpose, why bother to come to this banquet?"

"We also have dates and no dates, what kind of cooperation opportunities can we get?"

"That is, they are big companies in the United States, and even if our income has been high in the past two years, we still can't compare with others. ”

"That's right, even if the Yankees don't pay for the technology, their special effects technology is enough for us to ......"

Bite!!

At this time, as soon as the elevator door opened, a group of foreign devils, both men and women, came out...... In the first few heads, the surrounding Chinese artists looked quite familiar, so the original discussion was suddenly reduced to the extreme, and it was almost audible.

When the foreign devil passed, the actress covered her cherry mouth and said: "Hey~~ Isn't that foreign woman the one from Michael Media?"

"That's right, and the people of the Pala League!"

"What are they doing here?"

"Isn't there a banquet?"

“……”

Listening to the discussion, some bold people quietly embellished the Michael Media Para Alliance and his party, wanting to see what kind of fame they were doing.

At the same time, it was finally Yang Tang's turn to slowly slide to the door of the building, Yang Tang and Tao Yufei got out of the car together, and their own car boy drove Bugatti to park.

Yang Tang and Concubine Tao Yu walked forward a few steps and came to the female welcomer, who bowed slightly and said, "Mr. and Ms., I'm sorry for the two, please show me the invitation card!"

This is the meaning of the question.

Yang Tang also brought an invitation card, but just as he was about to take it out, he accidentally caught a glimpse of Jones (see 295 for details) who came with money, as well as Pala Meng and his party, so he temporarily changed his mind: "Oops, I forgot to bring the invitation card, may I ask...... Can you be accommodating?"

The female greeter was stunned when she heard this, and then showed an embarrassed smile: "I'm sorry sir, if you don't have an invitation card, I'm afraid you can't ...... You know. After the words fell, the two biao-shaped security guards behind her began to stare at Yang Tang.

Yang Tang shrugged when he saw this: "Since we can't be accommodating, then we have to go home." After that, he wanted to leave with the confused Concubine Tao Yu.

The female greeter naturally wouldn't stop him, but Jones, who had already walked in, hurried out of the door and stopped Yang Tang with his hand: "Since you're already here, why are you in a hurry to leave?"

Yang Tang said: "I didn't bring an invitation card..."

"What is an invitation card?" Jones said, pretending to be dumbfounded, "Barry, have you ever heard of an invitation card?"

Barry, the head of the Para League, was also at a loss: "Invitation card, is there such a thing?"

Jones and Barry sang and harmonized, and took the opportunity to clapp: "Miss Young, you heard it, obviously there is no invitation card, so you and your female companion can participate in today's banquet!"

The female greeter and security guard were clubbing not far away, and they were all stunned when they heard Jones and Barry's words, and they couldn't understand where Yang Tang was sacred.

Yang Tang glanced at Concubine Tao Yu, who was slightly anxious, and said when he saw it: "Miss Jones, since you have been kindly invited, then I might as well obey my fate with respect?" Then he and Concubine Tao Yu took the elevator to the banquet hall surrounded by Jones and Barry.

………

Entering the west hall where the dinner was held, Yang Tao and the others suddenly felt dazzled and dizzy.

The men in the hall are dressed in straight suits, and there are few people who are as casual as Yang Tang.

As for the beauties, they are full of flowers, all kinds of evening dresses can blind a dog's eye, what a deep V, backless, high fork...... Compared with these, the princess-style dress on Concubine Tao Yu is noble and lacking.

I have to say that people who are mixed in Vanity Fair like the entertainment industry do not pay much attention to their image, and no matter how orthodox they are, it is better than being tongue-in-cheek by dressing casually. Moreover, today's banquet was initiated by two famous American film companies, Michael Media and Paranomon, and if you are embarrassed to cross the Pacific Ocean because of the rude dress, it will be more than worth the loss.

It's a pity that Yang Tang doesn't care about these, although the price of his handmade casual clothes is expensive, but ordinary people really don't know the goods, so there are some doubts and contempt in Yang Tang's eyes.

What's even more ridiculous is that Yang Tang and Concubine Tao Yu were hugged into the banquet hall by Jones and his party, but no one among the Chinese present believed that foreign devils could bow Yang Tang in a low manner, and when they entered the door, only when Yang Tang happened to walk in front of Jones and them, it seemed a little crowded, but it didn't matter.

Because of such a misjudgment, no one is willing to take the initiative to make friends with Yang Tang, a "newcomer (no one knows)" in the circle, but one or two want to get together with Jones and Barry, and it would be better if they could toast.

Yang Tang was just happy and relaxed, holding Concubine Tao Yu, taking advantage of the flow of people, getting rid of Jones and Barry's entanglement, cruising in popular places, and not listening to what the small circle of people was saying, just hoping that Concubine Tao Yu could feel the atmosphere.

It is worth mentioning that don't look at Concubine Tao Yu is the daughter of the provincial party secretary, but due to the early death of her mother, her relationship with her father has not been very harmonious, and she finally lived alone in a rented house for a long time, and she really didn't follow her father to meet the world at various banquets.

When they were tired of shopping, Yang Tao and the others found a corner where there were few people and sat down.

"Are you hungry?"

Concubine Tao Yu hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "It's a little..."

Yang Tang immediately got up and went to the long table, where he sandwiched two large plates of fruits and desserts.

When Concubine Tao Yu saw the thick cream on the plate, she couldn't help frowning and said, "Don't you order meat?

"There's meat, turkey, believe me, you must not be used to eating that, it's better to have dessert, you're hungry!" Yang Tang persuaded, "It's a big deal that you ate this meal tonight, and you will strengthen your exercise for a week from tomorrow, and you are afraid that you won't be able to consume it?"

Concubine Tao Yu bowed slightly, feeling reasonable, so she took the plate and ate it with relish.

Yang Tang was also eating, but he was gobbling it up, so it was inevitable that he would be rude, and there was naturally more cream on his chin on his mouth, which was seen by Concubine Tao Yu, which made her giggle.

After a while, Jones, who had changed his clothes, wore a wig and came over with a dinner plate: "Hey, you two, why are you chatting so happily?"

Concubine Tao Yu and Yang Tang were very harmonious, and she was a little disgusted and suddenly inserted a person, but when she looked at it, she was stunned and found: "Huh, aren't you just downstairs at the gate just now......

"This is Miss Jones, the PR department of Michael Media Pictures. Yang Tang briefly introduced Jones's origin to Concubine Tao Yu, turned his head, raised his hand and stroked Jones's wig, and said coldly: "What are you?"

Jones took a bite of the fruit salad on his plate and smirked, "Guess?"

Yang Tang pouted and said, "I can't guess, and I'm too lazy to guess!"

Jones seemed to have known that Yang Tang would have such an attitude of not caring about himself, and immediately said: "If I don't disguise, or if I take off my hood now, Mister Young, how many people do you think will come up to annoy you when I walk away?"

Yang Tang was stunned.

Jones waved his arms and said, "Countless...... Even if they don't make friends with you on the spot, then at least they will find out what you want, and you won't be able to keep a low profile if you want to!"

"Presumptuous! Bang!" Yang Tang heard the threat implied in Jones's words, and immediately slapped the table, startling the people present.

Jones saw that Yang Tang had signs of shooting, and hurriedly apologized: "Mister Yang, don't you Huaxia have a saying called 'business does not become benevolent and righteous', don't worry, even if you don't agree to the matter of "The Da Vinci Code", we can't do anything about the privacy of the rioter!"

Yang Tang was noncommittal when he heard this.

"Besides, I heard in the past few days that you have a new book to be released recently? We can't cooperate on "The Da Vinci Code", there is always a book that can cooperate, right?" Speaking of this, she couldn't help but glance at the hardwood handrail that Yang Tang's palm had patted, and found that a large piece had been dented on it, and her heart was so shocked that she couldn't look at Yang Tang's eyes more and more cautiously, and she didn't dare to have any more contempt.

"You Michael Media are quite well-informed, so you learned so quickly that my new book is about to be released. Yang Tang said lightly, "But in my opinion, the new book is more valuable to be made into a movie, but with your original quotation from Michael Media, I won't even consider the exam." ”

Jones was startled when he heard this, and his eyes began to wander, obviously calculating. After a while, she slapped her and said in a somewhat constipated tone: "Five points, this is the highest authority I have." ”

Yang Tang said unhurriedly: "Five points, what are five points? Besides, I don't know which book you want." ”

Jones said: "It's still "The Da Vinci Code", and the five points of the net profit we get from the release of the film by Michael Media should be used as the copyright fee for "The Da Vinci Code"!"

Concubine Tao Yu, who was listening, finally heard a little bit at this time, and was startled by the five-point dividend conditions given by Jones.

But after Yang Tang listened to Jones's words, he sneered there.

Jones couldn't hold back a little when he laughed, and took the initiative to increase: "Add another million dollars to your signing fee!"

Yang Tang still sneered, and when Jones wanted to walk away, he suddenly said: "Five points of net profit, one million cash? I'm afraid that I can get a signing fee of more than 500,000 yuan at most, even if I burn high incense." ”

"Huh?" Concubine Tao Yu was shocked by Yang Tang's words, "Why can you only get more than 500,000 yuan? This is not scientific, even if the box office of the movie is zero, you should have to pay a signing fee of 1 million!" she understood a little.

"Hehe, Tao Ban, Tao Ban, you think too much about the Yankee film company, I originally thought you had heard that rumor, but now it seems that you haven't heard ......"

"What rumors?"

"It's an interesting rumor, "Titanic" was released a few years ago and was a big hit at the global box office, you should have heard of it, right?"

"Yes. Concubine Tao Yu nodded.

"But you must not have heard of the rest of the matter, the film giant company that distributed "Titanic" invited a team of professional accountants to account for the net profit of the "Titanic" film, and as a result, these black-hearted accountants actually colluded with the film and television company, and calculated that the profit was only more than 30 million, but the tax was only 46% of 30 million, which is 14 million......"

"Huh?" Concubine Tao Yu was completely stunned.

"Miss Jones, do you still want to talk to me about the five points of pure profit now?" Yang Tang said with an unhappy face, "I really think I'm an idiot!"

Seeing this, Jones hurriedly remedied: "I just made a slip of the tongue, a slip of the tongue, since you brought it up, then the five points of the movie box office are good, and the signing fee is still the same, is it okay?"

"It's okay or not, but I want you to settle the bill in installments, for example, in January of the North American release, you need to transfer the bill to me immediately, and so on, and the same goes for the overseas box office!"

"Month-end?" Jones was surprised by the result, "I can't call the shots, I need to ask for advice." ”

Yang Tang said: "Whatever." ”

Jones looked around, saw that he didn't pay much attention, and calmly slipped back into the crowd.

Yang Tang saw that Jones was missing, and was about to say something else to Concubine Tao Yu, but he didn't expect Concubine Tao Yu to become interested in his book instead: "Hey, Tang Tang, your book "Da... What kind of book is it?"

"The Da Vinci Code" is a bit suspenseful, with a religious color, in short, it is a very miscellaneous book, but it sells well in the United States......

"Then why haven't I seen this book on the market?" said Tao Yufei curiously.

"Because it has only been released in English and French for the time being, it is not very normal in China!" Yang Tang said.

"It's not normal!" Concubine Tao Yu wrinkled her nose, "It's a good book that sells well in the United States, and you don't even publish the Chinese version, which is a bit hateful, right?"

Yang Tang was stunned when he heard this, and then shook his head with a bitter smile: "Where am I hateful? Is it good that Chinese and foreign reading tastes are different? If the Da Vinci Code is published in Chinese, it may not sell well in China, and it will not be able to fight on the street!"

"Really, but how do you know if you haven't tried?"

"Please, miss, this kind of thing can't be tried randomly, do you know how much it costs to publish a new book? And it's not just about money, but also about distribution channels, all of which have to be related to people, I don't have any relationship in this area in China, how do you tell me to get it?"

Hearing this, Concubine Tao Yu was stunned and said, "Or...... I'll find a professional to help you get it?"
