The City of Angels is lit up at night.

Although it doesn't have the feeling of the high-rise buildings of New York.

The lights on Beverly Hill still proclaim the prosperity of the city.

It's home to the world's largest film industry, it's producing stars every year, it's Hollywood.

Every year, countless handsome men and women flock here to seek their own opportunities.

American, worldly, they aspire to become a hit and become those who are admired as reserved or noble or individual.

As long as they can become famous, as long as they can gain a foothold or even develop in Hollywood, a place where they are drunk and gold-obsessed, they don't mind giving everything!

Wait, you say they're for the show and for the film career?

Of course, everyone would say that, wouldn't they?

Beverly Hills.

Mr. Michael Ovitz, CEO of Innovative Elite Culture, Inc.

Tonight, in his villa on Beverly Hills, a small and medium-sized dance party was being held.

This dance party mainly faced many Hollywood artists signed by CAA.

The VIPs are the top executives of the major Hollywood giants who have a good relationship with the CAA.

Today's CAA, although it no longer swept Hollywood in the early 90s.

But there is no doubt that the innovative packaged brokerage model, coupled with the reputation and number of senior partners accumulated over the years.

CAA is still the undisputed hegemon in the Hollywood industry when it comes to entertainment brokerage.

Cocktail party initiated by the head of the industry overlord.

In Hollywood, those who signed up to CAA. or celebrities who have a good relationship with the CAA, basically all of them came.

For example, not so long ago,

At the Four Seasons Hotel in downtown San Francisco, Charlize Theron, who has seen Abel from afar.

Charlize Theron entered the circle at the age of eighteen and is twenty-five years old this year.

The brokerage company she signed with at the beginning was a small company that mainly relied on discovering new talents.

There are a lot of such companies in Hollywood, and they all dream of becoming giants like CAA.

But most of them will be abandoned by the stars after they become famous.

Charlize Theron made the same choice, and in 1996, she left her original agency to join CAA's innovative elite culture brokerage.

Since then, she has officially become famous, and the film appointments have continued.

Today, she is one of Hollywood's second-tier stars.

It is only one step away from the first line.

As long as it can stage a blockbuster, or get the recognition of the Oscars.

The accumulation of those years allowed her to complete the progress from the second line to the first line.

There aren't many opportunities like this, she is very cautious and trying to find opportunities.

Michael Ovitz's cocktail party for the big names in the circle who has returned from the king.

Naturally, she won't let it go and come dressed up.

It's like a similar drinking party I've attended in the past few years.

Charlize Theron was on the pitch with ease, dealing with the gaze, greetings, receptions and covetousness from all sides.

However, what she values most is actually the host of tonight's cocktail party - Michael Ovitz.

When Charlize Theron joined CAA, it happened that Michael went to Disney.

When Charlize Theron gets support on the CAA side and gets a foothold in Hollywood.

Michael Ovitz, who wanted to return to the CAA, was rejected harshly.

So much so that Charlize Theron basically doesn't know Michael Ovitz, the former Hollywood magnate.

If Michael Ovitz doesn't return to CAA, or just disappears.

But Michael Ovitz is back.

Charlize Theron for his own benefit, for the stepping stone to the front line.

She had to deal with Michael Ovitz.

After all, although CAA does not produce resources, it is the best resource intermediary in the circle.

is the best resource porter.

When actors like Charlize Theron compete for resources.

CAA brokerage companies can often play a great role.

Because they know too well about the executives of Hollywood giants.

can do what he likes, can seduce interests, can deceive superiors and subordinates, and can deceive.

The vast majority of Hollywood actors need this ability from brokerage companies.

This can help actors get better opportunities, better pay, and more opportunities.

During the reception,

Charlize Theron is always looking for opportunities.

She wanted the right fit to be in front of Michael Ovitz.

It's a pity that at the beginning of the reception, Michael Ovitz has been chatting and laughing with the executives of many Hollywood giants.

There was no chance of Charlize Theron being contacted.

Wait until Charlize Theron gives up for a while, chats around at the cocktail party, and reappears.

But she suddenly discovered,

Michael Ovitz didn't know why, but he wasn't on the court.

The organizer of the cocktail party, there was no one in the middle of the meeting.

This has never been rare in Hollywood drinking parties.

In general, the convener who initiates the cocktail party.

Most of the time, it should be in a place that everyone can easily find.

Charlize Theron swept around with a pair of beautiful eyes.

Reception hall, no one.

Outdoor cold dining area, too.

The outdoor pool next door to the cold food area is also nowhere to be found by Michael Ovitz.

Where did it go?

You won't go into the room with any Bichi, right?

When she thought to herself.

A gentle voice sounded behind her.

"Hey~ Charlize, you're looking great tonight."

Charlize Theron turned around and saw his friend Keanu Reeves appearing behind him with a glass of red wine.

Charlize Theron had a shallow smile on her face, "Ha~ good evening." Reeves, thank you for the compliment. ”

A non-U.S. Hollywood actor with dual citizenship who has a small circle in Beverly Hills.

Charlize Theron is a dual citizen of South Africa and the United States, and Keanu Reeves is a dual citizen of Canada and the United States.

Both of them had attended the gatherings of this small circle, so they had not even worked together at this time.

The two are also friends, and when they meet at a cocktail party, they will naturally talk a little more.

Keanu Reeves in 2000 can be said to be in a prime moment.

The release and popularity of "The Matrix" last year made Keanu Reeves both fame and fortune.

For a time, his status in Hollywood.

There is even a faint momentum of more than two Toms.

Compared with Charlize Theron, who has more than one line in the second line, Keanu Reeves' status in the circle is higher.

However, no matter how high his status is, it can't change the reality that Keanu Reeves is still just an actor.

In any case, it can't compare to Michael Ovitz at the top of the food chain in the circle.

Charlize Theron is ostensibly chatting and talking to Keanu Reeves.

In fact, Charlize Theron is looking for Michael Ovitz.

It's just that now Michael Ovitz doesn't show up, and she can only chat with friends to pass the time.

is talking about Keanu Reeves' crime thriller movie "Justice Watch" that has just been released in September this year.

Charlize Theron suddenly saw Keanu Reeves stop talking, pointed in the direction to his left, and whispered in surprise:

"Look over there, Charlize. Over there, let's see who Michael brought over. Oh, that guy looks so tall, so young, so handsome! ”

At first, Charlize Theron was a little puzzled.

When she turned her head and looked in that direction.

Just know what Keanu Reeves is talking about.

Because there, the entrance to the garden of the villa.

The host of this evening's reception, Mr. Michael Ovitz, CEO of CAA.

He was walking in front, his right hand slightly extended, and his attitude was somewhat respectful and gentle.

That state, like a hotel doorman, was leading the way for a tall and handsome young man behind him.

"Who is this guy?" Charlize Theron heard Keanu Reeves whisper:

"Let Michael take it so seriously? Does CAA want to be a super newcomer? ”

Unlike his friend Keanu Reeves, Charlize Theron had already recognized the young man's identity.

She wanted to say that she had seen the young man side.

I haven't opened my mouth yet.

Charlize Theron heard a slightly hoarse and wild female voice next to her.

"Maybe Michael wants to come up with a fresh meat idol like Leonardo after returning to CAA?"

Charlize Theron turned slightly sideways, and saw that he was talking to one of the most competitive opponents in Hollywood.

Angelina Jolie, who won an Academy Award once, for Best Supporting Actress.

"Good evening, Charlize." Angelina Jolie was very active at the reception all night.

Same as Charlize Theron.

But the two barely said a word throughout the night.

Until now, the two of them are in the same coffee position.

A very competitive actress, the moment of conversation for the first time in tonight's cocktail party.

"Good evening, Angelina." Charlize Theron smiled.

At this time,

Michael Ovitz has put that one in the eyes of everyone in the room.

The young man who made Michael Ovitz look like a doorman was brought to the middle of the reception.

Then Angelina Jolie and Charlize Theron and others heard Michael Ovitz announce loudly:

"Ladies and gentlemen, please forgive me for my brief disappearance."

"Actually, I didn't just leave."

"I just went out a little bit, out to meet my boss!"

"That's right, you heard me right, my boss!"

"He is the largest shareholder of CAA and is the Chairman of CAA's Board of Directors. At the same time, he is also the chairman of AB Smith Entertainment and the chairman of Marvel Studios! ”

"Now, please welcome my boss and Mr. Abel Smith!!"

Michael Ovitz is full of emotion, his hands raised in the air, and he sings an aria like a soprano singer.

shouted loudly in front of hundreds of people, shouting out the identity of the young man in front of him.

At the same time as his hands were raised and his voice fell.

The whole reception scene resounded with warm and unrestrained applause.

Whether you recognize the Abel Smith in front of you or not.

But everyone knows Michael Ovitz.

And basically, it's all for Ovitz.

Or be invited by Ovitz.

Ovitz's face, everyone present must give.

This makes the applause, neat and warm, as if it has come to the award scene of some award.

"Wow!!"

Charlize Theron was applauding very much, and suddenly heard Keanu Reeves next to him clapping and shouting:

"I remember! I remembered who this guy was! No wonder it looks a little familiar!! Wow, this is a super-rich man, the kind with his name on the Forbes list!! ”

It was noisy, but Keanu Reeves was around.

Charlize Theron and Angelina Jolie, naturally, can hear Keanu Reeves' words.

In the midst of the uninterrupted applause, Angelina Jolie asked Keanu.

"Reeves, what are you talking about? What super-rich? Tonight, we have the super-rich here? ”

is different from Anne Hathaway, who was admitted to New York University on her own.

is also different from Liv Taylor, who is also a second-generation star, but is more introverted on the surface.

Angelina Jolie, the second generation of stars, has not been a good girl since she was a child.

This is a veteran Los Angeles girl who can wear a leather jacket full of nails and dye her hair a dark purple at the age of twelve or thirteen.

At the age of fourteen, she rented a garage with her punk band boyfriend, stayed out of the house all day, listened to heavy metal music, and stimulated her nerves with drugs and stuff like that.

In a sense,

Angelina Jolie a few years ago,

It is a collection of all bad stereotypes about American girls in the eyes of the people of the Celestial Empire.

Such women are the ones who don't learn and don't know how to say.

Angelina Jolie has never been outside the entertainment industry.

Naturally, I haven't read the latest issue of Forbes, so I don't know what Keanu Reeves meant by what he just said.

Charlize Theron didn't actually know what Keanu Reeves' words meant.

Recently she is on the run and busy auditioning for the lead actresses of two films.

Previously appeared in San Francisco to audition for one of them.

She's been busy lately, and there's no news about it.

She also looked at Keanu Reeves.

Keanu Reeves noticed the curious gazes of the two beauties.

After discovering Abel's identity, the popular actor who was very surprised immediately said:

"Abel Smith, haven't you heard?"

"America's youngest billionaire, youngest Mr. Billion."

"No. 35 in the U.S. and No. 51 in the world!"

"The majority shareholder and chairman of CAA, the key figure in bringing Michael Ovitz back to CAA."

Forbes reported on him before. In recent days, Hollywood newspapers have also been reporting heavily on the super-rich man because of Michael Ovitz. ”

"Don't you all read the newspaper?"

In the end, Keanu Reeves complained.

Charlize Theron listened in a trance.

She remembered that her assistant had told her about it in the last few days.

It's just that Charlize felt at that time that this kind of top-level bigwig was too far away from him.

Plus she was too busy at the time, so she didn't go too far.

As for Angelina Jolie, she really doesn't care about that.

In addition to acting and pursuing excitement, while maintaining his own personality.

Angelina Jolie, not much interested in other things.

At this time, the two listened to Keanu Reeves' explanation, even if they didn't know it before.

Now I know, too.

Charlize Theron's reaction was- "Sure enough, I was right that night, and it was a big guy with status!" ”

Angelina Jolie is full of "CAA chairman", "the 35th richest person in the United States", and "the 51st richest person in the world".

At this time, the applause gradually died down.

I saw Michael Ovitz give up his position and ask Abel Smith to talk to everyone.

Charlize et al.,

I saw this tall, handsome, young man who was excessive, and said with a smile:

"Good evening, gentlemen, ladies and gentlemen, ladies and gentlemen."

"I'm Abel Smith, and I've just come from San Francisco and Texas."

"That's right. Like Michael said, I'm his boss. He is also an investor who is very interested in Hollywood. ”

"It's a pleasure to meet you here tonight."

"I hope that in the future, I or my company will have the opportunity to cooperate with you."

"Thank you~"

As the voice of the super-rich fell, there was more applause than after Ovitz had just finished speaking.

Everyone applauded just now to save face for Michael Ovitz.

Now everyone applauds vigorously because it is in everyone's eyes.

Standing in front of Michael Ovitz is not Abel Smith.

Rather, it was a pile of money that smelled of oil, paper and ink, piled up on the top of the head.

Or the crocodile who overrides Michael Ovitz and many other Hollywood giants.

Or the endless opportunities in Hollywood, with mansions, yachts, cars, and dollar bills!

Realistic Hollywood,

What I like most is this kind of existence that can directly bring real stimulation.

Super rich alas!!

Warm applause,

It was so big that it would tear off the roof of Michael Ovitz's villa.

Charlize Theron applauded while noticing that Angelina Jolie was clapping particularly vigorously.

She also saw Angelina Jolie's beautiful eyes with wildness and aggression, exuding the eyes of a hungry estrus leopard at the moment.

"Oh~ it's perfect."

Charlize Theron heard Angelina Jolie whisper this.

This made Charlize Theron, who was a little slower, immediately react to Angelina Jolie's intentions and the reason for this appearance.

Realizing this, Charlize Theron looked at the young man in front of Ovitz.

It's starting to be different, too.

Fortunately, although the applause was enthusiastic, it gradually died out.

It's impossible to keep clapping, after all, the palms are made of meat.

Even if everyone is excited.

But when Michael Ovitz took the super-rich and led a group of Hollywood giants to the corner.

Everyone's excitement and warm applause finally came to an end.

"Ha~" Keanu Reeves rubbed his palm, "I almost thought I was at the Oscars just now." ”

He smiled and looked at the two beauties, only to see Angelina Jolie say directly to himself: "Unaccompanied".

Then this wild thick-lipped actress left this small circle directly.

Keanu Reeves frowned, feeling a little strange.

Then he immediately heard Charlize Theron, like Angelina Jolie, say a word of disagreement to himself.

Looking at the figure of Charlize Theron leaving, Keanu Reeves was a little overwhelmed.

Ten minutes later.

Keanu Reeves reacted.

Because he suddenly found out.

Tonight,

Those singles at the party,

Or a female Hollywood practitioner whose male partner, boyfriend, or husband did not come.

Almost all of them rushed in one direction.

After figuring out what's going on.

Keanu Reeves, who is also handsome and is currently a Hollywood superstar, couldn't help but curse in his heart-

“fxxk！ A bunch of shameless Bichi! Hmph, like a she-wolf in collective heat! ”
