As a typical Mediterranean climate, California has always been dry and rainless, warm in winter and cool in summer. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info And winter is the opposite, although the minimum temperature may reach 4 degrees Celsius, it is not felt at all when walking under the sun.

Compared with the subtropical in the north of Wanwan, the tropical climate in the south is hot, humid and rainy, I don't know how good it is, so many immigrants in Wanwan choose to live in California.

The only problem is probably the earthquake, after all, there are not many high-rise buildings on the Cascadia fault zone, and they may shake slightly, Japanese immigrants may be able to adapt immediately, and other immigrants will not be at ease when they encounter frequent microearthquakes for the first time.

"This is your temporary home at the moment, and I think you already know it, but I only got out of my adult life at the end of May, and the villa I bought is being renovated and may be ready for some time. Sitting at the small square table in the garden, Li Xu raised the coffee cup in his hand to Shuanglin.

This is another villa of my father in the Bay Area, about 16,000 square feet, which is about 1,500 square meters when converted into metric, and no one lives in it at present, so Li Xu used it to house Lin Fengjiao and Lin Qingxia.

"If there is anything you need to talk to Thomas, I told him that he will meet all your requests. Li Xu then pointed to the housekeeper who was directing the servants in the house, because Xie Ding thanked him so well, even in the house, the head was still shiny.

"Hmm. Lin Fengjiao and Lin Qingxia exchanged glances, and both responded.

They couldn't resist when they were in Wanwan, and after experiencing the baptism of Japan, they couldn't resist when they came to the United States. Especially Lin Qingxia, after complaining for so many days, she finally adjusted, even if she still couldn't accept it in her heart, she could press it down, instead of showing it clearly on her face.

"Bridget, I know your sister is also in San Francisco, if you want, you can go and see her, or even stay at her house for a few days," Li Xu said at this time, "Of course, you have to greet me in advance, and if you can't contact me, I'll tell Feng Jiao." But you have to set a time and come back on time, you know?"

Lin Qingxia pursed her lips, and finally nodded.

"Very good, if you are going to go recently, remember to tell your brother-in-law that in two weeks he will be promoted to sales assistant. Li Xu said lightly.

Lin Qingxia's eyes widened immediately, and the cup in her hand was almost misplaced, even if she shrunk herself into her shell, she knew what this sentence meant.

Li Xu still looked unconcerned, and turned his head to look at Lin Fengjiao: "Let's talk about your future, Fengjiao, you don't have an appointment now, have you thought about what to do in the future?"

"What to do?" Lin Fengjiao, who was stirring the coffee with a spoon, was a little dazed when she heard this.

Since he stepped into the entertainment industry at the age of 18 with "The Angry Man of Chaozhou", he has acted in movies for almost ten years, and his works are as high as more than 60, with an average of at least six movies released every year.

Lin Qingxia is a little worse, only more than 50 films, with an average of at least five movies released every year, after all, she debuted two years later than Lin Fengjiao.

In other words, the two of them basically contracted Wanwan's literary and artistic love movies in the seventies, and that's how Erlin's title came from.

From another point of view, in the past ten years, in addition to eating, sleeping, and taking vacations, they have also made movies and done publicity, so they ...... I really can't do anything but act.

Oh, Lin Fengjiao probably knows a little bit of dancing, and has been a dancer who has been a backup dancer, but it still doesn't help. If you don't make a movie, if you do something else, I really don't know what I can do for a while.

"People always have to do something to make life more meaningful, even if you are willing to be a canary, you have to pass the time. Although Li Xu was smiling, he was a little ruthless when he spoke.

Lin Fengjiao's face couldn't help but turn a little red: "I don't know ......"

"Okay, then do you want to listen to my arrangement?" Li Xu immediately asked, and without waiting for the other party to answer, he continued to talk to himself: "First of all, as I said in Japan, I will find you a few language teachers, English, Japanese and Cantonese, these three languages are what you must master. Of course, the latter two can be relaxed and can communicate smoothly, but the former, at the very least, must be able to read a Shakespeare line with emotion. ”

After a pause, he looked at Lin Fengjiao, and then at Lin Qingxia, and then he continued: "After passing the basic communication of English, I will arrange for you to go to some beginner, but reputationally guaranteed acting classes, so that you can receive systematic performance training, and you can also try to sort out the acting skills you have learned through practice in the past ten years." ”

After pausing again, seeing that they still didn't interject, Li Xu shrugged his shoulders: "After that, when your learning situation meets the requirements of experts, I will send you to USC for further study, but not to learn acting, but to learn how to be a filmmaker." ”

"Producer?" Lin Fengjiao finally spoke, with a little surprise.

"Yes," Li Xu nodded, "To be honest, in the past ten years, although you have dozens of works, what can impress people, or make the audience remember it, is probably a dumb girl in "Tales from a Small Town". ”

"And "A Boat in the Ocean"......" Lin Fengjiao couldn't help muttering.

"The most brilliant person in that movie is Qin Han, not you. Li Xu commented, and Lin Qingxia next to her couldn't help but shake after hearing the familiar name.

"I asked you to learn acting and organize your acting skills and methods, hoping that you can perform one or two classic roles in the future," Li Xu didn't even look at her, "I asked you to learn to be a producer because when you go to Hong Kong to invest in movies in the future, you can supervise one or two as a producer." ”

"You're going to Hong Kong to invest in films?" Lin Fengjiao's eyes widened.

"Yes, I like movies very much," Li Xu grinned, "I remember telling you and Bridget that Star Wars was my investment." Besides, if I'm not interested in movies, how can I find out who you are in the first place?"

"But ......" Lin Fengjiao couldn't believe it.

"Hong Kong also has good movies, I have a lot of research on Chinese culture, and I am also curious about Chinese films. Li Xu raised his hands, and then pointed to Lin Qingxia: "To be honest, Feng Jiao, in terms of actors, you are actually not as good as Brigitte." ”

Although Lin Fengjiao is plain and not very ambitious, she still cares a lot about her achievements, otherwise she wouldn't have intervened before.

Now that Li Xu said this, she must not be convinced, she won the Golden Horse Award for Best Actress.

"Why?" finally Lin Fengjiao still took into account Lin Qingxia's feelings, and just asked.

"It's very simple, Taiwan's literary romance films have reached a dead end, and judging from the information I have gathered, Qiong Yao's superstar company will probably close down soon. Li Xu said unashamedly, "So, if you want to continue to be an actor, you must find a way to transform, but it's not easy, especially if you ......"

When he said this, he reached out and swept the hair between her ears, and then his fingers slid down the delicate face, making Lin Fengjiao involuntarily tense her body and look at her nervously.

"You look too weak, Feng Jiao, the taste of the heroine of the literary romance is too strong. Li Xu hooked her chin, looked at it and said so, and then looked at Lin Qingxia again.

Lin Qingxia immediately became nervous, but when Li Xu's hand moved over, he just leaned back slightly and made a gesture, but his chin was still hooked by him.

"Although Brigitte's taste is on par with yours, she puts on a little makeup and highlights the heroism between her eyebrows, which will give people a different feeling. At this time, find a good script and a good role, and let a good director guide a little, you can wash away the temperament of the heroine of a literary romance film. Li Xu said, "But if the same thing is to be put on Feng Jiao, it needs more than one good script and good role." ”

Lin Fengjiao frowned, obviously not particularly convinced, but Lin Qingxia suddenly said angrily: "Why do you always call me by my English name? Is my Chinese name so ugly?!"

As soon as these words came out, not only she was stunned, but Lin Fengjiao was also stunned, from Wanwan to Japan to San Francisco, Lin Qingxia, who was silently resisting all the way, actually sounded so angry, but actually seemed to be disgusted, which was really a bit terrifying.

But Li Xu just smiled lightly: "Okay, Qingxia - in short, what I mean is that Feng Jiao can go behind the scenes, but she doesn't completely give up acting, she meets a good role, an interesting role, you can try it, usually be a producer, and rest if you want to rest." ”

He raised his hands again, looking a little exaggerated: "To be honest, until now, I still can't believe that you guys have made more than 100 movies in ten years. You know, in Hollywood, even if it's a low-budget romance movie, as long as it's a properly registered film company, a month's shooting is also necessary, plus post-production is even longer, I can't believe how to make five or six of these movies in a year. ”

After a pause, Li Xu sighed lightly: "But I know that it must be very tiring, and I can't enjoy making movies at all, so I hope you can relax a little." ”

"Just like Lijun?" Lin Fengjiao blurted out.

"Yes, just like Teresa," Li Xu nodded, "Teresa needs to regain popularity now, and she also needs to help your government do some publicity, so the concert will be non-stop, and a new album will be prepared." After this period of time has passed, and it has stabilized, it is possible to approach the music with a more relaxed attitude. ”

Lin Fengjiao pursed her lips, Lin Qingxia seemed to want to say something, but she didn't say it.

"Alright. Li Xu took the initiative to stop the topic, "This is actually not in a hurry, you can think about it slowly, but language learning will be on the agenda soon." Rest assured, they have taught Teresa and are very experienced. ”
