Chapter 75: The Dinner Party

Although Tang Feng was a little confused about Jonathan's invitation, he still went to the appointment on time on Wednesday night.

Jonathan didn't say what kind of banquet it was, so he asked Anne to be his female companion.

After all, she is now the president of the celebrity, so it seems more formal than bringing Monica.

Before this, Tang Feng had never participated in this kind of banquet, but he had also heard some interesting things, in short, it was better to be steady.

If it were a serious dinner party, he would take Monica to it, it would be too frivolous and would make a bad impression.

But Anne didn't seem to like such occasions, and kept complaining along the way, "I told Hunter that I would take little Ruth to eat fried chicken in the evening, and now I can't go." ”

"At the beginning, I said it was a very idle job, but look at how busy I am now?"

"I don't understand, why don't you let Pete and Monica take advertising endorsements all the time?"

"You don't know how difficult those advertisers are, they all followed me outside my house yesterday, if it weren't for Hunter's presence, I would have called the police!"

Tang Feng nestled comfortably in the wide seat and patiently explained: "Dear Annie, I didn't expect that an advertisement would come to the door so soon. ”

"Although this is a good thing, we can't accept that kind of advertisement, even if we give more money!"

"What kind of ads are they? sex toys, men's magazines, gay bars?"

"If you give them an ad like that, you're ruining them!"

"Not only can they not take it, but in the future, no one will be allowed to accept it, which will not be beneficial to our company's image. ”

Anne nodded thoughtfully and said, "This kind of advertisement is really inappropriate, if there are such advertisers in the future, I will blast them out!"

Cooper, who was driving, interjected: "Actually, I don't think it's anything, if you don't accept such an advertisement, do you still want to accept a Nike advertisement?"

Tang Feng glared: "Shut up!"

"Drive your car well!"

Cooper pursed his lips, muttered a few words to the side, and obediently continued to drive his car.

During this period of time, although he felt that he had a good relationship with Tang Feng, he didn't dare to keep his mouth open like before.

Because he found that the longer he spent with Tang Feng, the more he couldn't see through what kind of person this kid younger than him was.

In Cooper's eyes, Tang Feng is no different from other boys many times, but the composure and calmness he showed in the smearing incident have to be admired even by him, who is used to seeing big scenes.

He has been in the company for some days, and he has witnessed everyone's usual respect for Tang Feng, and he has gradually become less rebellious.

As for the original statement that he was going to be a producer, I'm afraid he doesn't even remember it, anyway, he now thinks it's good to be a driver even like this.

After Tang Feng taught Cooper a lesson, he also thought to himself: "This guy is really to the point!"

"It's not a way to keep them from receiving advertisements, and it seems that I'll have to find a time to talk to them one day. ”

"If you want to become the top star, you really can only accept huge advertisements from big companies. ”

"Either refuse them all, and if you want to take them, you can only accept the most expensive ones!"

......

It's the first time, and no one has any experience.

When Tang Feng and the others arrived at Beverly Hills, the butler who had been standing at the door told them that the dinner had begun.

Cooper saw the rows of luxury cars in the parking lot, and even his eyes straightened, "Boss, I used to think that our cars were very good, but now it seems that I am afraid that they are the lowest grade here." ”

Tang Feng said indifferently: "It doesn't matter what kind of car you drive, what matters is who is sitting in the car!"

"I really don't like these fancy sports cars, they're all just looks, and any modified car can throw them behind the ass. ”

With that, he let Anne press her arm, hold the gift, and follow the housekeeper to the villa generously.

Jonathan had already received the report, and was waiting for them at the door in person, and as soon as they met, he said enthusiastically: "Sean, you're late." ”

"The buffet has begun, so I'll take you in first. ”

Tang Feng nodded and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, it's the first time to participate in such a dinner, I thought it would officially start at eight o'clock." ”

"Jonathan, this is my personally chosen gift, '82 Lafite, I hope you like it. ”

Jonathan motioned for the butler to take the gift, and then smiled and praised while leading the way in front: "Thank you very much, this is my favorite, it seems that you have done your homework before you came." ”

Probably because of the gift from Tang Feng, Jonathan seemed very happy, and did not take them to the banquet hall and leave, but introduced him and Anne.

"I didn't say beforehand that today's banquet was actually my retirement dinner, and I will no longer be president from next Monday. ”

"Sean, do you see the people sitting on the couch, they are all colleagues from the TV station that I have worked with for many years, and they are also my good friends. ”

"There are a few people over there, all of whom are bank executives, and if your company needs a loan, you can go to them. ”

"The few people who are chatting around the stage are all your peers, although they are not big stars, but they are also people with some energy in Hollywood. ”

"See that old man with gray hair and beard, he's a judge of the Golden Globes!"

"Sorry, there are too many guests, I'll miss you first, you are free. ”

"I'll introduce them to you later, and dealing with them will help you a lot in your career. ”

After a few brief introductions, Jonathan went on to receive the other guests.

Although it was a buffet, it was very rich, with a wide variety of dishes, and a whole large long table was filled.

Next to the huge main table, there are several sub-tables with desserts and wines for guests to choose from.

It was the first time for both of them to participate in such a banquet, and they were still a little reserved, but after eating a little, they found a corner to chat.

Anne had a strange attitude towards Jonathan, "Sean, did you know each other before?"

"How do you feel like he's nice to you?"

"When we came in, he personally came to the door to receive them, but the next few people were brought in by his butler. ”

"It seems that even if you are not rich, you should be the kind of person who is in high society. ”

"Are we more important than them in Jonathan's heart?"

Tang Feng beckoned to the waiter, took two glasses of champagne from the tray, handed one to Anne, and said, "How did I know him before?"

"Some time ago, didn't his TV station participate in reporting on my incident, and when he came to apologize, I said in public that I would not pursue legal responsibility. ”

"I didn't expect that, just because of that, he recommended me to Oprah. When I came back and called to thank you, I was invited to the dinner again. ”

As he spoke, he and Anne clinked glasses slightly, "Anyway, I can feel his kindness, and that's enough, isn't it?"

Tang Feng's indifference made Anne a little anxious.

After all, she is a person who has been a police officer for many years, and out of professional vigilance, she feels that this matter seems to be a little strange.

But she secretly observed Jonathan for a while, but she didn't find any flaws, so she didn't say anything more.

At eight o'clock in the evening, Jonathan came to the stage amid the cheers of the crowd.

I saw that he first smiled and waved to everyone, then took the microphone from the waiter's hand, and said excitedly: "Hey, thank you for hosting this dinner for me." ”

"Wow, I didn't expect that I would be a sixty-year-old man now. ”

"Logan, do you remember that I was only twenty-five years old when I first started my business, and you personally approved me with the loan. ”

"And Zach, I wouldn't be doing a TV show if it weren't for your advice......"

Every time Jonathan utters a person's name, there is a cheer from below.

The person whose name is called will be very cooperative to say two words of praise, or make a joke to expose the original troubles.

It's like a group of old friends bragging, warm, warm, and full of human touch.

Such an atmosphere also infected Tang Feng, he applauded and cheered, and at the same time watched a group of old men play treasures with great interest, and at the same time thought with emotion in his heart: "It seems that the confidant must be an old friend." ”

"I wonder if there will be such a retirement banquet when I get old?"

"Haha, Pete became an old man at that time, and even Angela and Little Ruth were grandmothers, right?"

Just as he was sighing, very unexpectedly, Jonathan actually shifted the topic to him!

"Now, I'm going to introduce you to two new friends, and he is the talented young director, Sean, the owner of Hurricane Pictures!"

"Next to him is the graceful and dignified lady Anne, the president of the celebrity agency, and I am glad that you are here for my retirement party. ”

With his introduction, everyone's eyes focused on Tang Feng, and there was a whisper in the crowd: "Is he the director of "Killer Tragedy"? ”

"Didn't KTLA TV report on him a few days ago, Jonathan is really confused, how could he invite them at this time?"

"Didn't you hear him say that they are friends now, maybe they have reconciled?"

Jonathan paused for a while, bowed to Tang Feng, who did not change his color, and then said sincerely: "For what happened a few days ago, on behalf of KTLA TV and myself, I solemnly apologize to you again. ”

"And thank you sincerely for your tolerance, otherwise this incident would have been the biggest and most unforgivable stain on my thirty-five years of career. ”

No matter how much trouble he had caused himself before, now a sixty-year-old man bowing to him was enough to show his sincerity.

Tang Feng couldn't help but be moved, and hurriedly strode onto the stage, held Jonathan's hand, and said with relief: "The facts have proved that it was just a misunderstanding, and please don't dwell on it anymore." ”

"If it weren't for your help, I wouldn't have had the opportunity to be on The Oprah Show, and my films wouldn't be as popular as they are now. ”

"So, I should thank you!"

"I hope we can all forget about the old unpleasantness, didn't you just say that we are already friends, then stop thinking about those things. ”

Then he turned his head and smiled at the audience, "Wow, I really haven't had such an old friend before, it's a really good feeling." ”

After speaking, Tang Feng waved his hand to beckon the waiter, took two glasses of champagne, handed one to Jonathan, and raised the wine glass in his hand, "To you, Jonathan, for our friendship!"

Jonathan also raised his glass, touched it lightly with Tang Feng, and then waved his glass high to the guests in the audience, "To everyone!"

"For our friendship!"
