The magic capital of Shanghai.

In a high-end club, all the foremen and waiters are all like enemies.

"Xiao Gao hasn't come yet?" A man in a suit and leather shoes, about 1.65 meters, growing horizontally, shouted in his neutral voice, "Mr. Chen is in our clubhouse, and he won't drink the wine of other bartenders at all!" Immediately, call immediately! Ask him where the hell he is! ”

"No need to ask, he caught a new yard, and he must not have gotten up in bed." A tall man replied, "Mr. Wu has temporarily transferred three five-star bartenders from three other clubs, and they will be here soon." ”

The man in the suit took a sip, his face full of dissatisfaction, "Mr. Chen went to the clubhouse, but he couldn't drink, it's a shame for us!" ”

"You can't blame us, Mr. Chen came here with Mr. Lin temporarily, who would have thought? Have you ever seen Lin Xiao go to a nightclub? No wonder the boss got nervous. The tall man replied, picking up a fruit bowl that had been inserted, "I'll send it in first?" ”

"Wait a minute!" The man in the suit hurriedly walked over and looked at the fruit plate for a few seconds before nodding, "It's okay, let's send it in." ”

The tall man picked up the fruit plate and walked towards the most luxurious box in the clubhouse.

Pushing open the door, the outside is as quiet as a park in the morning, but there is a soft music coming from the moment it is pushed open.

The entire floor is paved with marble that illuminates the human figure, and bright crystal lamps hang from the ceiling. A table of fur so white that you can't pick out a single variegated skin is spread on a leather sofa imported from Italy. The purple sofa was already sunk by several people.

A man with his hair combed on his back, wearing a designer suit and an ordinary face, was chatting happily with a man next to him. A woman with her hair like a waterfall plays "Autumn Whispers" on a black piano on the side of the room. ”

"It's a luxury." The tall man's heart suddenly filled with hatred for the rich, and he gently put the fruit plate on the table.

The people in the room, he didn't dare to offend any of them, the man with an ordinary face started with real estate, one of the 50 richest people in China, CEO of General Industry Group, Chen Jinfei.

And the other, although he can't compare to Chen Jinfei in terms of wealth, his popularity is ten million times that of the other party, and even any young man on the street can call his name.

It was Lin Xiao.

Behind them, there were four black-clothed bodyguards, who saw the fruit plate put down, took out a hundred yuan casually, and handed it over as a tip.

"Mr. Lin, I haven't seen you for a long time." After the waiter went out, Chen Jinfei comfortably forked a lychee, "Since the gold powder family, I can only see you on TV." You're pretty good now. It doesn't often talk about you, saying that you are in gold dust and it helps her a lot. ”

"That's her own effort." Lin Xiao said with a smile.

Chen Jinfei nodded, waved his hand, the piano stopped, and of the four bodyguards, only one was left in the room, and the others walked out.

"Mr. Lin, everyone's time is precious." Chen Jinfei restrained his smile, "What's the matter, it's better to say it directly." I'm sure you won't date me out for no reason. ”

Lin Xiao nodded, "Indeed, there is something wrong, I want to ask Mr. Chen for help." ”

Chen Jinfei smiled and made a gesture of please.

"Mr. Chen, what is your relationship with William Morris?"

"Okay." Chen Jinfei replied quietly, "It's mainly my goddaughter, I want to make her a world-class artist...... You?! Do you want to enter the WMA?! ”

Chen Jinfei's originally deep gaze instantly burst out with an astonishing essence, and then returned to stability.

What a big ambition!

For the first time, he officially looked at Lin Xiaolai.

In his impression, Lin Xiao is a very good artist in China, and now, others are begging him to make films, since his debut, the ratings and box office of any film are a miracle.

30% of the box office after a long absence, the first blockbuster with hundreds of millions of dollars, the first goodwill ambassador, and the first video website.

He didn't debut for a long time, but this resume is glamorously outrageous.

In his mind, he has reached the point where he is above 10,000 people, only the accumulation of time, and now the other party is not worried about not having a good film to shoot, and after a few years of accumulation, the name of "memory of a generation" will undoubtedly appear on him.

He didn't speak, and looked at Lin Xiao with a rather appreciative gaze.

Just when this kind of smooth sailing, the other party actually asked about WMA!

"How did you find out about Morris?" He put down the fork of the fork of the fruit, crossed his hands in front of his chest, and his expression remained unchanged, "This company is not well-known in China." It can be said that none of them have taken the initiative to recruit artists, and the focus is also on Hong Kong and Taiwan, even if they are first-line artists, I am afraid that they will not be able to find two out of ten who know this company. ”

Lin Xiao smiled: "Mr. Chen knows a lot about the entertainment industry. ”

"The little girl is just in time."

Lin Xiao thought about it for a moment and spoke solemnly.

"Mr. Chen, I'm sure you'll know what I'm thinking when you hear me ask the WMA."

"As for how to know, if the heart is big enough, these things will naturally be known."

Chen Jinfei pulled out a Cuban cigar, and the diamond-encrusted lighter drew a brilliant arc in the blurry light.

The green smoke rose slightly, he took a deep breath, and his thick knuckle hand groped for the platinum ring on his thumb, and said for a long time, "Mr. Lin, I have to remind you that as far as I know, foreign and domestic are two worlds. ”

"Two completely different worlds."

"The rules that make up these two worlds are similar only in the basic parts, and the higher you go, the more difficult it becomes."

"Your identity, why bother to take this step? Become the memory of a generation in China, you have laid a solid foundation, this is what many people dream of, you only need to stay up for another seven or eight years, this generation grows up, you are undoubtedly a Chinese superstar! ”

"Dawn has unimaginable business prospects, your name is a golden signboard, be a rich man? Be a star? It's all up to you, this risk is too big. The focus of WMA is overseas, which means that the focus of your work must be shifted overseas. The disappearance of the domestic entertainment industry giant must be a life-and-death fight for the upper position. ”

He sank into the soft sofa and shook his head, "What do you think, as soon as you leave, this circle will not be peaceful." ”

"I've said everything I need to say." He took a puff on his cigar and said slowly, "You choose." ”

"Do you want to start from scratch overseas, or continue to be the leader in China. It's all up to you. Dollars, not so easy to earn. ”

Lin Xiao took a deep breath.

He never thought that he would come to this point, the country could no longer meet his ambitions, and I don't know when, his goal has become to make the entire blue planet known to everyone.

Is it difficult?

Difficult! However, the top in China is something he never thought of, he has reached it, why not fight for it this time?

"I knew it was possible to start from scratch." He said calmly and firmly, "However, just like an artist, there are things that you don't have to choose at all. ”

"A lot of people think I'm filming to make money, but they're wrong. I'm just trying to pick a money-making movie among the characters that best suit my image. ”

"My dream is to become a big star, which sounds vulgar, but nothing else will interest me. This is the only thing I am pursuing. ”

"It's like people who love directing like that sense of accomplishment, while people who like acting are obsessed with savoring the process of a different life."

"Superstar?" He shook his head: "China can't produce superstars. ”

"How can you be considered a superstar if you don't have it recognized by the world?"

His gaze was a little yearning, "Only people like Marlon Brando, Morgan Freeman, and Michael Jackson can be regarded as real emperor superstars!" Moreover, I didn't give up the domestic market, and I finally won the country, how can I say that I will let it go? I want to grow overseas while maintaining my influence at home. ”

Chen Jinfei looked at him deeply and nodded, "Since you have already decided, I have no need and no position to persuade you." ”

"I'm familiar with the general manager of Morris in Shanghai." He reverted to a casual attitude: "To be honest, you can definitely get in now, but it's almost impossible to get the best contract." ”

Lin Xiao listened carefully.

"Morris's contract, divided into several parts." Chen Jinfei continued, "First of all, once you get into their process audit, the headquarters in the U.S. will organize an assessment team specifically for you that day, and they will come to China on the same day. ”

"Despite this, I dare say that 95% of artists in China, including Hong Kong and Taiwan, will not make it to the second round of review. That is, the branch in Shanghai was brushed off in the first round. Those who enter the second round of review will face several contracts. ”

"I don't know the details, it's based on the assessment team's assessment score on you. Only with the best contracts, they will really praise you as a superstar. As far as I know, none of Asia have received this contract. ”

"What are they judging?" Lin Xiao frowned and asked.

"I don't know." Chen Jinfei shook his head, "This is their secret, if you want to know how to do it, let's put it this way, if it is divided into four grades of ABCD contracts, WMA once extended an olive branch to Cheng Long and gave a B-level contract." ”

Cheng Long didn't even get a superstar contract? Lin Xiao was secretly speechless.

"But it's a question of whether you'll be able to get past the second round now." Chen Jinfei laughed mysteriously, "Mr. Lin, don't say I didn't remind you, you have now committed one of the biggest taboos of Hollywood rules." If I remember correctly, the assistant manager of the WMA talked to me many times during casual conversations. ”

"It's not just about talking about it."

Without waiting for Lin Xiao to ask, Chen Jinfei continued, "As for what it is, you will know when the time comes." And you should be able to know the content of the contract. I also know your purpose, and you want me to recommend Morris for you? ”

Lin Xiao suppressed his curiosity and nodded.

Chen Jinfei shook his head, "The starting point is very good, but I can tell you that from the time you recommend the person, you have already entered the WMA review. ”

"In WMA, referrals are a very important part. This represents the artist's influence in that country, what level of people can be found to recommend, and what level the artist can influence. WMA wants to open up the influence of this artist in the country, this invisible level, the first thing they consider is what they consider. ”

"There's a better opportunity in front of you, someone more powerful than me, why don't you give it a try?"

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Tomorrow should be finished, I thought about it for several days, and finally decided to completely enter the foreign market and work hard,

Originally, a friend said, why not keep the domestic identity and do it yourself, the problem lies in the difference in domestic and foreign rules, no one leads, it is almost impossible to enter the foreign market, of course, this is my opinion

It's not that you don't want the domestic market, but the focus will not be in the country, and I'm afraid that the domestic non-blockbuster business card will not be filmed

This paragraph is particularly sad to write...... But the state has improved today, and it should be able to recover tomorrow.

Finally, this unprepared turn of events is really painful
