After more than half an hour, everyone arrived at their destination. 【Reading.com】

It is a typical American home courtyard, with a fenced yard outside, and there are many people coming and going at this time, including Mr. Harlan.

In such a scene, Zhang Bin suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, but he still walked in with the Gates.

It turned out that Mr. Harlan was having a dinner for his friends today, and he was going back to Napa Valley tomorrow.

Mr. Haring first introduced his youngest son, Caro, a Washington state congressman who was thirty-six years old, and then one of his grandsons and granddaughters.

In addition to their family and the invitation Zhang Bin and the Gates, there were two men in the yard who were not young.

Under Mr. Harlan's introduction, Zhang Bin was completely messy.

One of them was the famous American conductor, James Murphy. Levine, Zhang Bin is not familiar with, and the other is a well-known figure, such as thunder, it is James. Francis. Cameron.

It is really hard for Zhang Bin to imagine that he would see such a character under such an unexpected situation, and it seems that he is quite familiar with Mr. Harlan.

Zhang Bin was suddenly excited, this is Cameron, known as "one of the world's twenty greatest directors", almost all of the films he directed are big hits, Zhang Bin especially remembers "Titanic" and 09's "Avatar", as well as his personal favorite "Alien" and "Terminator" series.

There are so many classics that Zhang Bin can't finish it.

Among them, "Titanic" created a box office of $1.8 billion that year, and the box office of "Avatar", even before being reborn, is still a legend, with a box office of $2.7 billion, proud of the global box office list, and these two films ranked first and second in the global box office list respectively.

Sitting down on both sides of the long table, it is strange that Zhang Bin is not restrained, the table is full of big coffee, as far as his net worth, people can't look down on it, if it weren't for Mr. Harlan, where would he have this opportunity to sit with these people.

Think about it, the owner of the world's top wineries, the top conductor, the greatest director, the richest man in the world, oh forgot, and his son Carlo, who is a congressman in Washington state.

Harlan had only said that his son worked for the government, but he didn't expect to be a Washington state legislator.

The people on it, take one out at random, they are all top people in various industries, Zhang Bin really didn't expect that he would be able to sit with these people for lunch one day, this happiness seems to have come too suddenly.

Maybe he thought it would be possible ten years later, but the first time he went abroad, he encountered it, it was like a dream.

Carlo seemed to see Zhang Bin's restraint and took the initiative to talk to him, maybe he was working in the government, and what kind of people he said to what kind of people, but Zhang Bin quickly eased up.

In addition, Melinda seems to be very interested in Zhang Bin, and has been chatting with him all the time, chatting about Chinese culture and customs, and she seems to be very interested in these.

Of course, Zhang Bin wants to have a good relationship with everyone at the table, even Melinda, he will not underestimate this woman.

Bill. Gates founded a foundation called Bill and Melinda. The Gates Foundation, with an investment of $28.8 billion, aims to reduce global inequality, and just last year, Gates's friend Warren Buffett also issued a statement to invest $30 billion in the foundation.

That's nearly $60 billion, not RMB.

In addition to establishing a good impression with Melinda, Zhang Bin also expressed his admiration for him and his willingness to cooperate with Mr. Cameron.

It is rumored that Cameron has a bad temper, and many people who have worked with him say so, but others say that this is a common manifestation of people who strive for perfection, and their intentions are good.

But Zhang Bin is not worried about this, as long as he can cooperate, anyway, he doesn't have direct contact, he knows that Cameron is now planning the movie "Avatar", but this film has been contracted by Twentieth Century Fox, and the investment should not be worried.

As early as the filming of "Titanic", Twentieth Century Fox invested 200 million US dollars, and at that time, the film was not favored by everyone, and the investor Twentieth Century Fox also asked him to reduce costs, otherwise stop investing.

But Titanic is a dream of Cameron, he is a diving enthusiast, and he especially likes to spend a lot of money to buy underwater robots and exploration ships, specifically to find some of the world's missing ships, among them, the story of Titanic deeply attracted him, so he decided to shoot such a movie with the theme of the Titanic love story.

In order to fulfill his dream, Cameron said that he was willing to give up all his shares and income, but Cameron also told everyone that he must be crazy and spent $200 million to shoot a love movie, and everyone died.

Who knows, the shock that the film brought to the global audience made this film collect $1.8 billion at the box office, which simply caught everyone off guard, and Cameron has also become synonymous with the box office with this film.

So when Cameron said that he wanted to shoot "Avatar", he didn't say a word this time, and invested directly, because they knew that Cameron was a bombshell in Hollywood, and his name represented box office revenue.

But let Zhang Bin miss this movie like this, he was very unwilling, and he had to find a way to seek cooperation.

Although the people at the table are all top figures in various industries, the topics they talk about are all parents, and the atmosphere is very warm, which makes Zhang Bin very surprised.

The whole lunch was eaten for about an hour and a half, and then the Gates first offered their farewell.

Melinda seemed to have a good impression of Zhang Bin, and when she left, she gave her phone number to Zhang Bin, and said that she was going to go to Huaxia.

Zhang Bin bluntly said that when the time comes, let her find herself, and she must do her best to be a landlord.

Just kidding, don't you hurry up and take the opportunity to get closer to the relationship, is it still indifferent.

Harlan left Zhang Bin at home and returned to San Francisco with him tomorrow, and Zhang Bin agreed.

However, he had been thinking about working with Cameron in his heart, so he asked Harlan to help me pull the strings.

"Invest in his films, you're also interested in this?" Harlan said with a smile.

"I have a film company in China, so maybe we can work together," Zhang said.

"Alright, follow me", Harlan agreed.

Under Harlan's introduction, Zhang Bin and Cameron talked about film investment in the room.

"You're going to invest in my films, how much money do you have?" Cameron was a little unsmiling and looked a little serious, which may have something to do with his life.

Cameron has been married five times and divorced four times, and the marriage can be said to be quite free.

"I can still afford the money for this movie", Zhang Bin said confidently, if Cameron would agree, Zhang Bin would have a big deal to withdraw the money from Merrill Lynch, as for O'Neill's favor, Zhang Bin has a way to pay him back.

"But I've promised Twentieth Century Fox to invest in the film," Cameron said, looking at Mr. Zhang.

"How much do they pay?" Zhang Bin asked.

"Use as much as you want," Cameron said.
