"This is Mr. William and his secretary, Miss Ho, Mr. William is an investor in our company. This is Mr. Meyer, the president of MGM Resorts. ”

"Hello!"

"Hello!" ??????

After a small greeting, Meyer's words made Situ Nan a little surprised: "I've always wanted to know Mr. William, and I finally met him today." ”

"You know me?" Situ Nan looked at Meyer, if he remembered correctly, he shouldn't have known each other before.

"I've heard your name. Who doesn't know the William family in Beverly Hills in Hollywood? I've always been in Hollywood, and I know that Mr. William loves movies, otherwise he wouldn't have invested in a studio. ”

Meyer looked at Situ Nan calmly, his eyes were sincere, he originally planned to join William Films, but later, after the exchange of several founders of Mitro Films, they had the same goal with each other, that is, to expand the film market, so there is MGM today.

This is a man with a heart!

Situ Nan commented on Meyer Dao.

He appeared in Fox Film Company, and he was still in the No. 1 box, his identity is naturally different, the relationship between Fox Film Company and William Film Company is clear in Hollywood, and Situ Nan became Mr. William for Fox, so it is not surprising that Meyer recognized Situ Nan.

"I miss Hollywood a little bit when I think about it, and it would be nice to be in the Coconut Grove Ballroom, listening to jazz music and watching the movie stars around me!"

Situ Nan smiled, glanced at Meyer, and joked a little, "I like that Catherine from your company very much?" Hepburn's actress. I wonder if Mr. Meyer can cut his love? ”

Situ Nan's direct hit Meyer's surprise, and his mind was quickly calculating, about Catherine? Hepburn's information immediately came to his mind.

"Catherine is just a well-known actress, why should Mr. William value her?" Meyer's eyes froze instantly, staring at Situ Nan, as if wondering—could it be that he had a "crush" on that actress?

Well, man, it should be the same.

Meyer's gaze fell on the face of He Xiangu next to Situ Nan, as if he had realized something.

"I just think she's good." Situ Nan smiled faintly. Some things are not explained.

Actually Meyer vs. Catherine? Hepburn's evaluation is elevated, Catherine? Hepburn was just a fledgling actress with little fame.

If he could, Meyer liked to do Situ Nan a small favor. Climb the big tree of William's films.

Compared with MGM Films, which has just been established not long ago, William Pictures is obviously stronger, otherwise Meyer would not have come to New York in person to discuss the release of the movie "Ben Hur" with Fox Films.

"Did Situ Nan fall in love with another woman again?" He Xiangu's face was a little unsightly, and her mouth pursed slightly. looked at Situ Nan aggrievedly.

However, Situ Nan really couldn't explain this, so he glanced at Fox.

"Yes! I also think that little girl is good, there is a movie suitable for her, and it would be great if she could join William Films. ”

Fawkes looked at Meyer expectantly.

With this expectation, Meyer felt pressured, how could he not understand the play of Fox and Situ Nan?

It's just that he doesn't quite understand why Situ Nan would be to Catherine? Hepburn that stickgirl interested?

If it weren't for Catherine? Hepburn turned out to be an actor at the film company where Meyer worked, and Meyer didn't necessarily know each other.

Is it a hobby for some people?

Meyer really can't think of Catherine? What's so good about Hepburn, maybe some young tycoons like that kind of green taste. I'm tired of those popular actresses.

Some people naturally refer to Situ Nan.

"Alright! No problem. I went back to Los Angeles and sent the contract to William Films. Meyer laughed and looked at Situ Nan with some lewdness.

The look in his eyes seemed to say - I see, I know. I get it.

Meyer really wronged Situ Nan, there are many actresses in William Film Company, and a few of them are red and purple, but Situ Nan has never "tasted" any of them, the only woman related to the movie is Rose, and the proprietress of the film company has much more taste than those superficial stars.

The conversation between men, starting with women, is very easy to resonate with both sides, and a woman in Los Angeles who is trying to fight for a role does not know that her fate has been changed by a small joke in New York, thousands of miles away.

Talk about women, talk about movies, and nod to actresses. It's easy to lose track of your relationship with each other. Although Meyer can't be his partner and may still be a competitor, it doesn't prevent Situ Nan from appreciating the other party.

Moreover, the three of them are all characters with real insights in movies, so the topics they talk about are not too vulgar, but more constructive.

"Heard that William Films is working on sound film technology? How is it going, is it easy to reveal? Meyer, who had drunk some rice cereal, asked with a smile.

"The progress is quite smooth. Breakthroughs have been made in key areas, patents have almost been applied for, and it will be put into use within a year or two. ”

Situ Nan said with a smile. There are no sound movies, and they are still watching those gray and silent old movies, how can they be called modern times?

The prosperity of the film industry is also a bright spot of Coolidge's prosperity, and the film industry with Hollywood's strong commercial atmosphere will become popular, while Europe, the center of the world, still prefers literary films, which will make them look more elegant.

"Great! MGM is willing to work with William Pictures in this area, and we are also interested in sound films. ”

Meyer climbed up the pole, and he clearly felt that if he could get into the sound film market first, MGM Pictures could have jumped to the top of Hollywood's studio.

"Good! You can discuss the specific things with the Los Angeles side. Situ Nan readily agreed.

William Film has a patent for sound film technology, and if this technology is promoted, other film companies will have to pay a lot of patent fees, which is enough to make William Film Company make a lot of money.

The premise is that sound movies are an instant hit, eliminate silent movies, and quickly occupy the market. Situ Nan had no doubts about this.

Coming out of the movie theater, He Xiangu was a little sullen and followed behind Situ Nan without speaking. The head drooped a little.

"Yo! Our little daughter-in-law was wronged. Situ Nan laughed and reached out to pinch He Xiangu's delicate face.

"I don't want to pay attention to you!" He Xiangu broke Situ Nan's hand and bit her lip, with a faint mist in her eyes. Not sure why. Just now when she saw Situ Nan begging for an actress from Meyer, she felt aggrieved.

Situ Nan had other women before, and she knew it, but if she wanted to add a newcomer, she would feel uncomfortable.

Sometimes, she thinks to herself: how nice it would be if this man belonged to her completely? This feeling has been getting stronger lately.

He Xiangu's dripping appearance made Situ Nan's heart ache. He hugged He Xiangu tightly and explained, "I have nothing to do with that woman at all, just say that? It's just a favor for a friend, in fact, I only know the name of the other woman, I don't know what she looks like, but it's definitely not as beautiful as you! ”

But in his heart, he thought, "Cheap boy!" I wonder if they will spark if they meet in advance? The famous Catherine? Hepburn, Situ Nan still knows. But I haven't had time to see each other's demeanor yet.

"Really?" He Xiangu's voice was a little excited.

"Of course. You don't know who I usually come into contact with. A carrot like mine is bad enough, how can I still harm others? ”

Situ Nan looked at He Xiangu with a sincere face and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes. The appearance of the pear blossom with rain was particularly pitiful, and I couldn't help but kiss it.

"What about on the street? Ashamed! He Xiangu patted Situ Nan's back with it, but she didn't break free, thinking of kissing in public on Broadway Street in New York, her heart was stunned all of a sudden, the feeling was indescribable, as if her soul suddenly floated to the sky, and that moment had become eternal.

"Ahem!" He Xiangu opened Situ Nan's arms and pulled her breath. Breathing hard, her face was congested with blood due to lack of oxygen, and she was so drunk that she almost suffocated just now.

Situ Nan looked back and saw that his performance really attracted a lot of audiences, and some frivolous boys even whistled.

He Xiangu's face was tender. was so anxious that she was about to shed tears again, Situ Nan took her hand and walked into the boutique next to her, which was sometimes fashionable, cosmetics shipped from Paris, all kinds of jewelry, etc., dazzling.

"Women are always prone to lose themselves in an illusory appearance." I don't know who said this, but it seems to make some sense.

After He Xiangu entered, he was immediately fascinated by those goods, and the embarrassment he had just outside immediately forgot about it, and pulled Situ Nan to walk around without stopping.

The salesmen of these high-end boutiques have good eyesight, Situ Nan and He Xiangu's clothing and bearing are not ordinary people at a glance, and there are a few men in suits behind them, aren't they bodyguards?

Luckily, nothing embarrassing happened, so the shopping was enjoyable, and soon Situ Nan's arm was full of bags.

What clothes, jewelry, etc., all hung on Situ Nan, originally he wanted to show his gentlemanly demeanor, but he underestimated He Xiangu's purchase**.

Situ Nan, who was carrying the heavy bag, had a bitter look on his face, which made the few bodyguards behind him laugh.

"I can't stand it!" Situ Nan wisely stopped being reckless, pulled the bag on his body and put it on the ground, followed by a few sales ladies around him to hook his fingers, and said with a smile: "Help, everyone will give you a bottle of perfume later." ”

After buying a few "kind" sales ladies, Situ Nan was relaxed, walking with He Xiangu in a leisurely manner, and when he saw that He Xiangu was interested in something, he immediately bought it, without discussing it at all, let alone bargaining.

He just wanted to take a break from shopping, and to his heart's content, they walked into the world's largest department store, the newly completed Macy's flagship store in New York.

From the first floor to the eighth floor, there are all kinds of goods, looking at the endless shelves, Situ Nan secretly complained.

"Little sister, you don't want me to buy this department store, do you?" Situ Nanhu said with a face. His words made several enthusiastic salesmen beside him laugh, and while He Xiangu was not paying attention, they kept discharging Situ Nan.

"Why not? How nice it would be if you had a department store at home and you could buy a lot of things every time! He Xiangu tilted her head and said.

"Alright! Let me think about it. Situ Nan had an idea, and thought: I don't know how the department stores of Sincere Department Store are developing? After all, the domestic pattern is small, and if there is an opportunity, it should enter the American department store market.

After thinking about it, Situ Nan shook his head again, forget it, let's reinvest in department stores in the United States! After all, the main manifestation of Coolidge's prosperity is the development of productive forces, specifically, the department stores are filled with all kinds of goods.

"Miss, can you take me to see electrical products?" Situ Nan asked, stopping a somewhat jerky saleswoman, estimated to be new for a long time.

"Okay."

Situ Nan, who became serious, was particularly charming, full of interest in every product, nodding his head while thinking about something.

Of course, in the electrical counter, the department store still feels "simple" to Situ Nan, unlike a hundred years later, when you walk into a shopping mall, you will see a golden TV or other shiny goods, especially those display screens on the wall are even more dizzying.

"How about this Cummins radio? Isn't fifteen dollars a bit more expensive? Situ Nan unceremoniously tinkered with a radio the size of a box in front of him and asked with a smile.

"This is the best brand sold at present, produced by Cummins Electric, the largest electronics manufacturer in the United States, and the world's first wireless radio station was built by Cummins Electric, so their strength is strong, and the radio produced is also the best one on the market."

The salesman's words made Situ Nan very happy, not only because the other party's advertising words were good, but also because of the joy in his heart and a sense of accomplishment.

In addition to Los Angeles, Cummins Electric has a plant in Buffalo, N.Y., and produced 100,000 radios last year and will expand production tenfold to 1 million a year this year.

In addition to Cummins, he found Seibu and several other brands of radios, counting at least ten brands.

This is still a regular big shopping mall, and if it is a copycat factory outside, it is estimated that there will be more radios.

Just as Situ Nan was fiddling with the radio at Macy's, a whirlwind suddenly blew in from outside.

"Quick, turn on the radio, there's a state dinner at the White House, and the broadcasters all over the United States are broadcasting online, ready to send the broadcast to the Atlantic! From New York to San Francisco to London—"

A staff member rushed over to quickly debug the radio?????
