Hollywood is the Hollywood of Wall Street, and Li Jiaming has no influence on Wall Street, but his friends do. Last month, his abrupt concession on the Qualcomm takeover, combined with a $12 million UBS check handed over by Mr. Zhang, won Mr. Robert's friendship.

With Robert's wife, Ms. Agnese, running the show, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", which was supposed to be a warm-up for Christmas, was scheduled to premiere at the Chinese Theater, a landmark building in Hollywood, although it did not get more schedules; And many well-known producers and directors were also invited to attend, including Frank, the director of Li Jiaming's favorite film "Shawshank". Darabont.

Of course, on such an occasion, Li Jiaming will not fail to bring his celebrity friends to the stage, when he and Yang Zhiyuan, David, and Kyle ...... When he appeared on the red carpet, it attracted the exclamation of some domestic media reporters, and also made the American reporters who were sparsely lazy ecstatic.

"Jerry, you're a friend of Lee's?"

"Yes, but the heroine is my friend's ex-girlfriend, and they turned love into friendship, and I was kidnapped today."

Kyle next to him seized the opportunity to promote his company, and hurriedly pushed Li Jiaming forward and introduced: "He is!"

"good! This is a good nickname, everyone take a pretty look, this is the creator of iPod1, the chairman of HH company, and our alumni ming."

Reporters are sensitive, and when they heard that it was ipod1 instead of iPod, they quickly changed from entertainment reporters to financial reporters.

"Yes, our company is about to launch the iPod 2 before Christmas, and it will be a perfect product."

Wow, the reporters exclaimed, the global sales of iPod 1 exceeded 8 million units, the digital music sales and click-through rate of iTunes \/Store are also the sum of all music websites, and economic analysts have set the valuation of HH at more than $12 billion. The chairman of such a company is actually a Chinese, and a non-American Chinese?

"Yes, Ming was the first to find the Internet profit model and the misunderstanding of Internet traffic, and you can find his paper on the Stanford server. Oh, by the way, he's a master's student at Stanford. ”

Wow!

After another exclamation, almost all the microphones and cameras came towards Li Jiaming.

If it weren't for his ex-girlfriend's scene, Li Jiaming would definitely take the opportunity to publicize, but with this relationship, he can't do bad things that make a noise.

"Ladies and gentlemen, today is the premiere of CouchingTiger, HiddenDragon, and we should care more about this film. Believe me, it's a great movie, the story, the music, the performances are all of great artistic value. ”

"You've already seen the movie?"

Foreigners just dig holes, not like those reporters in China, who will only fry leftovers and break the news.

"No, to be nominated for the Oscar for Best Director proves that he is capable enough to handle such an art film. Ladies and gentlemen, we must believe in the authority of the film academy and the directors' union. ”

"Dong Li, do you have a new girlfriend?"

Li Jiaming couldn't help but be happy, looked for it in the microphone pile, reached out to take his company's microphone, and said in Chinese: "Don't make a mess, my 'contemporary Chen Shimei' flower name is thanks to you, right?" ”

"That's the truth!"

"The truth is that it's not a big deal to watch the excitement!"

Laughing and scolding, Li Jiaming, who knew that he was 'trying to get away with it' and was reserved for the media, returned the microphone to the young man, raised his hand at everyone and turned away, and whispered that his friends had caused trouble for him.

"Toshiba has a new battery, and the iPod 2 will soon be finalized, so don't take advantage of the opportunity to beat the exposure? Hey, is this movie really good? Don't make us drive for hours and end up watching an art movie that we don't know what to call it. ”

"I don't know, maybe it's okay, I haven't watched his films, how do I know his level."

"You didn't watch Sense and Sensibility?"

I really didn't watch the movie, but I watched it, and I watched it with a critical eye. Just like in the next 120 minutes, in addition to Li Jiaming's feeling that the soundtrack is quite standard, the whole film is a second-rate martial arts film; In addition to using the narrative mode that Westerners are accustomed to and showing many oriental elements, its artistic level is not as good as "East Evil and West Poison" six years ago.

But it was such a martial arts film that Li Jiaming felt was only second-rate, and at the end of the film, it actually won warm applause from all the guests and audiences.

Cultural differences!

Li Jiaming, who also applauded, was thoughtful, and immediately explained to Kyle after walking out of the theater: "Kyle, the test of iPod2 will be put in the United States, and our front-line sales staff will participate in the whole process and provide advice." ”

“boss？”

Looking at the audience who were still discussing the plot, Li Jiaming changed English to Chinese and explained: "In my opinion, this movie is far from exciting, but you think it is great, D2's main sales target is young people in Europe and the United States, we must pay attention to their product experience, and front-line salespeople know customers best." ”

"Okay, I'll do it right away when I get back."

The more Kyle thought about it, the more reasonable it became, and hurriedly said: "Boss, I want to set up a new department, independent of the after-sales service and marketing department, and be responsible for communicating with customers and front-line sales staff full-time, and collecting their opinions and suggestions. ”

"It's called the user experience department, and the future design, YLE, and technology-driven content are true, but our products are ultimately purchased by users before the company can make profits."

"OK, it's called the user experience department, which is directly managed by the CEO office."

The two walked while gesturing and discussing, and before they knew it, they walked out of the crowd and went straight to a taxi, looking at the crew members who were about to invite them to the drinking party.

"Weiwei, Mr. Li used to be like this?"

Zhao Wei, who was dressed up, was so angry that she wanted to stomp her feet, but her ex-boyfriend had to say helplessly: "Workaholic and reader, I used to be on the set, and I still read all the philosophical tomes." ”

has been in the house for nearly four years, and Zhao Wei, who used to be very arrogant, has also been contaminated with a literary atmosphere, and speaks like a scholar rather than an artist. Director Li next to him could understand this complex emotion, looked at the taxi in the distance, and comforted: "Weiwei, in fact, this is not a good thing, people in the two worlds can't walk together." ”

Comforted by the great director he respected, Zhao Wei, who had been unable to really let go, suddenly felt a burst of relaxation, and said with a smile: "Also, when I was with his friends before, I was a vase girl, except for helping to buy supper and instant noodles, I couldn't help anything." ”

This child has spirituality and connections, and Director Li is also willing to point out: "That is a valuable life experience, maybe you can try to play an urban woman in the future, don't always take on some ancient makeup film and television dramas, that will frame your acting path and become a type actor." ”

The agent that Ms. Agnese helped Zhao Wei find has 1/4 Chinese ancestry and understands Chinese, of course, knowing that her patron has such a big ex-boyfriend, and the two are still friends after they broke up, what will it mean.

"Weiwei, let's go to the cocktail party, this publicity effect is very good, maybe it can give us an unexpected surprise."

As an actor, it is an honor to be able to break into Hollywood. Thinking of the new film that was about to start, Zhao Wei, who was still in a complicated mood just now, became happy again and said excitedly: "OK".
