Chapter 22: "Flight to New York."
On the second day, Lester's new book "The True Story of Ah Gan" was published by Penguin Publishing with an advance payment of 20 million US dollars, and quickly appeared in major newspapers.
In addition to senior writers who can get a high price of remuneration, no one has been able to get an advance payment of $20 million, Lester got $20 million as a rookie author, and is naturally a hot person to be reported by major newspapers, not to mention that the top three titles on the sales list today are all "Twilight" series written by Lester!
Emmanuel, as a rookie publishing agent, was able to let Lester get a high remuneration of $20 million, which shocked the entire brokerage circle and made Emmanuel well-known in the agent circle.
…
In the interior of the villa in the area north of Billy Buddha Mountain, Lester put on a well-fitting black suit and trousers, and wore bright black leather shoes, with a strong figure, very handsome.
Lester, who has just arrived at the age of 17, already has a height of 1.76 meters, and his immature face has gradually become a little tougher, looking at himself in the mirror, Lester smiled and cheered himself up!
When major newspapers reported that Lester's new book "The True Story of Forrest Gump" was won by Penguin Publishing for $20 million, Lester dressed in formal clothes, walked out of the house, got into the black car that Emmanuel had prepared for him, drove out of Billy Foshan, and came to Los Angeles International Airport.
As soon as he stepped out of the black car, Leicester saw that some parts of the airport were being expanded at Los Angeles International Airport, and the airport authorities seemed to be preparing for the 1984 Summer Olympics, spending a huge $700 million to expand the airport, and building viaducts over the horseshoe-shaped road connecting the terminals.
The original above-ground roads were converted to entry-only roads, and the newly built elevated roads were used for exits. The expansion project also included the construction of two new terminals (Terminal 1 and International Terminal), as well as the construction of a multi-storey multi-storey car park in the center of the airport.
For this Olympics, the whole United States is also fighting hard.
''Lester, you're finally here, the plane is about to start.
Emmanuel ran from the ticket office with a black bag and pulled Lester, who was still watching, towards the airport.
Behind him, Bertram Fields, Lester's personal lawyer, led a group of people to follow Lester, and Emmanuel walked into the airport.
This time I came to Los Angeles International Airport, Leicester was to take a plane, fly to New York City Airport, and go to Wells Fargo.
After 13 days of visits by Bertram Fields, Wells Fargo finally agreed to Leicester's funding request and full range of customer service yesterday.
This time, Bertram Fields led the team of the law firm to follow Leicester to sign a contract with Wells Fargo on the issue of funds!
Although February 3 was a Friday, as soon as Lester and the others walked into the airport, they saw a dense crowd of people crowding the road, and several people followed the signboard to New York City to the airport.
Here you go!
Emmanuel handed the ticket to Leicester and opened it to see that it was business class, and it was obviously not possible for ten people to take economy class, only the business class seat was large enough and independent enough, and it was a seat for business officials and business people.
When you sit in business class, you can sometimes see some well-known people sitting in the seats.
A group of people paid their tickets, walked into the plane, passed economy class, and sat in business class seats.
As soon as he sat down, Lester frowned, and looked at the three people sitting in the corner of the business class, especially the mature woman in a black dress and black glasses made Lester a little familiar, and after looking at it, he didn't see anything, Lester looked out of the plane window.
''Passengers, please strap on your seatbelts, the plane to the New York City airport is about to take off!''
The flight attendant's professional voice reverberated five or six times from the plane's horn, echoing through the plane.
After a while, the plane took off and sailed towards New York City in the blue sky!
Give me a milky cheese!
Emmanuel, who had just sat down not long ago, suddenly had a light in his eyes and shouted to the stewardess pushing the dining cart next to him;
The flight attendant dressed in a blue airsuit wrapped around her tsundere figure, a white-skinned Jewish beauty, heard Emmanuel's words, took out the cheese from the dining car, showed a sweet smile, handed it to Emmanuel and said: Sir, your cheese. "
Thank you, you're so beautiful.
Taking the cheese, Emmanuel's slightly chubby hand patted the back of the stewardess's white and tender hand in the stewardess's stiff eyes, thanked him with oil, and looked at Lester who was looking at the white clouds outside the window and said: Lester, do you need to eat something!
This sister, bring me a cup of Starbucks coffee!
Lester heard Emmanuel's words, turned his head and saw Emmanuel rubbing oil, twitched the corner of his eye, and shouted with a smile to the stewardess;
The smiling face of the spring breeze made the flight attendant slightly distracted, and she was in a bad mood because she was rubbed with oil by Emmanuel, but she immediately smiled sweetly in her heart, picked up the coffee and polished it and said: Little brother, your mouth is so sweet!
Sell tender!
Hearing Lester's words, Emmanuel trembled, rolled his eyes, and said;
You should study hard!
Emmanuel's movements, Bertram Fields also saw it, and the corners of his mouth curled up with a smile;
Thinking of him like Leicester just now, Emmanuel's head full of black lines.
Thank you!
Lester took the Starbucks coffee made by the flight attendant, looked at Emmanuel and said, "Mr. Emmanuel, eat less cheese, or you should enter the fat club." "
''No, no, no, I'm still far from the fat club.''
Emmanuel's face was bitter, and he hurriedly said;
Lester drank coffee in his hand and watched the white clouds fly by outside the window.
…
At Newark Airport in New York City, Leicester and others, who had been sitting for six hours, were just about to get off the plane when they suddenly found that there were dense crowds of people around the airport, which startled Leicester.
''Could it be that my authorship is exposed?'' "
Lester thought to himself;
Lester, who is popular because of "Twilight", has a high fan cry in the United States: he wants Lester to expose his identity.
At the airport, a group of young men and women held Madonna's signs and shouted loudly, and the airport security maintained order.
"Doesn't look like they're looking for me. "
Lester rolled his eyes and thought with a sigh of relief;
Let's go through the safe lane!
A magnetic female voice came into Lester's ears, and he looked over slightly, and when he found that the person who came and the crowd outside were shouting a person, his eyes were slightly surprised.
The magnetic voice was the mature woman in black who Lester saw mysteriously wrapped in before he got on the plane.
Lester didn't expect that after a six-hour flight, he would sit in economy class with the superstar Madonna of later generations.
Now Madonna has just released his second album and is starting to make a name for himself, coming to New York to start his first concert tour.
Watching Madonna and his agent follow the flight attendant into the safe passage, Lester walked towards the airport below the plane and said: Let's go!
