New York.

Hilton Hotel in the Bensonher, Brooklyn district, in the heart of the business district.

In the Golden Banquet Hall on the 32nd floor.

Abel is surrounded by the three giants of the world's music industry, Sony, Warner, and Universal, the CEOs of the three major music groups, namely Tommy Motora, Lune Landfin and Edgar Bronfman Jr.

He didn't have much of a mood swing.

Strictly speaking, these three are super bigwigs for any music industry existence.

It's really nothing in front of him.

Don't say it's these three.

Even the top bosses of these three people, such as the CEO of Time Warner, the CEO of Vivendi Universal, and the CEO of Sony Columbia.

Even if these people are in the presence of Abel, they are nothing.

This is like the guild leader in the full-level area in the game, in front of the three guild leaders in the novice village.

Of course, there won't be anything special, but Abel still feels a little bored.

If it weren't for DreamWorks music tonight.

And make David Geffen and Michael Levine's work a little easier.

Abel won't even come.

For a cocktail party of this level, a Robert Egger or Michael Levine is enough.

But they all came to Brooklyn, and Abel stayed.

This is the fact that he appeared in this music industry cocktail party with the highest level in the United States and even Europe and the United States tonight.

At the moment, there were three people around him, except for Tommy Motora, Rune Landfin and Edgar Bronff Jr.

and David Geffen of DreamWorks Music, and Michael Levine, president of Smith Media.

The conversation with the CEOs of the three music groups was mainly dealt with by David and Michael.

Abel only smiled occasionally and didn't talk much.

It can be said that his existence itself is raising the tone of this drinking party.

Didn't you see one or two hundred superstars from the European and American music circles in the audience, all eyes glancing this way?

At this moment, these people all want to enter this circle.

But this small circle is an existence that even Michael Jackson, the world's top king, is not qualified to join at this time.

These people can only look at the side, to see if they can have a chance to come over here and make a familiar face.

「. Tommy, you know. Britney and Michael came on their own will, and we didn't rob it."

Tommy Motola listened to David Geffen's words.

He has a good relationship with David Geffen, and he wants to splash the red wine in his hand on David's face.

But this kind of thing is just a thought.

Even Mr. Howard Stringer, the CEO of the headquarters group, was helpless in the face of Abel.

Even Sony Columbia Pictures Group can only compromise with Abel.

is just the CEO of Sony Music Group, a subsidiary of Sony Group, Tommy Motorola, of course, it is impossible for him to do anything out of the ordinary in front of Abel.

He couldn't afford that kind of consequence.

"Okay. All right. David, I see what you mean." Tommy Motorola smirked and said:

"In the future, Sony Music and DreamWorks Music will have the opportunity to work together. I think Mr. Smith, you'd like to see that, too?!"

Abel's sight and attention have never been in this small circle.

He has been in the crowd of people participating in the cocktail party, to see if he can find those singers and stars that he is familiar with, or knows or has seen.

Like Michael Jackson and Britney, he's been found.

Both of them noticed his gaze and both nodded to him and smiled in response.

fell in the eyes of others, which made the style of these two people in tonight's cocktail party rise a lot.

The richest man in the world doesn't care about anyone, just ignore these two people, isn't this enough to save face?

Many people took the initiative to approach these two people, ostensibly wanting to talk to them.

In fact, most of them were thinking that they could get the attention of Abel through these two people.

If they could, in fact, many people would like to be like these two and get the favor from Smith.

Like MJ, after getting Smith's favor.

Even the troubles of Sony Music, the most difficult in the circle, can be easily solved.

If you are favored by this gentleman, there is no doubt that there is a high probability that you will be able to walk sideways in the American entertainment industry in the future!

At this time, Tommy Motora took the initiative to bring the topic to Abel.

is also the CEO of Sony Music, and I want to talk to Albert.

Tommy Motola wanted to mix in as well as possible so that he could add a little bit of connection.

Tommy Motora has not had a good time with Sony Music lately.

He has been CEO of Sony Music Group for more than thirteen years.

In the past three years, Sony Music has lost money for three consecutive years, with a total loss of more than $400 million.

As CEO, Tommy Motorola is to blame.

The head office already has a big opinion of Tommy.

Tommy Motora worries that if he doesn't make a change, it will be a question of whether he will be able to stay at Sony next year.

If only Sony could find a new owner before he kicked himself away.

Tommy Motola thinks he doesn't mind licking Smith's shoes!

Therefore, Tommy Motora was very flattering to Abel throughout the night.

Not to mention the CEOs of the other two music companies.

Even Michael and David couldn't stand it anymore.

It's too direct and conspicuous.

Abel was also absent-minded, otherwise he would have noticed Tommy Motora's careful thinking.

Michael and David, seeing that the boss did not react to Tommy Motora's words.

Michael immediately smiled and said, "Of course, of course. DreamWorks Music is still a newcomer, and of course I want to be taken care of by everyone."

The CEOs of the other two music giants both smiled and gave a few face-saving copies.

"Hey~Michael."

Suddenly, everyone heard Abel, who basically didn't talk much, finally spoke.

He's talking to Michael Levine.

"Look over there. That's Draven, right?"

Michael Levine hurried to look over.

Sure enough, in the banquet hall, Draven was seen walking towards Avril Lavigne with him.

One of the CEOs of Smith Media understood, and Michael immediately smiled and said, "Yes. It's Delevingne."

"I remember him as a good friend of yours. And Miss Lavigne, let them come." Abel smiled.

Michael nodded quickly, then waved at Draven, "Here, Draven. Mr. Smith called you over, oh, and Miss Lavigne."

Avril Lavigne, who had been secretly looking at Abel's handsome face, suddenly found that the eyes of the audience were converging on her side.

The young girl was startled, as confident as she was, and a little less confident in such an occasion.

Draeven burst into laughter.

The agent smiled happily and led Avril Avril to that side.

After walking to the side of the small circle, the senior partner of this AA greeted everyone one by one.

After saying hello, Dravine looked back at Avril Lavigne, who was as well-behaved as a quail.

"Lavigne, Lavigne, Miss Lavigne. At this time, you should greet all the gentlemen."

Looking at Avril, who didn't dare to say a word, Draven reminded in a whisper.

Avril was really nervous at this point.

Even if she is really born with a confident personality, she is very bold, and she still has a heroic spirit in her bones.

But suddenly, she was at the top of the industry

In front of the giants.

There are still several, and she has never experienced such a big scene.

was also stared at like this by any one of the hundreds of senior stars who were more famous than her and more popular than her.

Even her confident personality was nervous and scared at this time.

She opened her mouth, wanting to introduce herself, or to say hello to the big guys.

The little mouth was open, but she couldn't make a sound—she was so nervous that her vocal cords forgot to activate.

Fortunately, David Geffen, a musician, likes her, and at the same time is a very delicate GAY guy.

David smiled and relieved her, "Oh, our Miss Lavigne is so nervous. Let me introduce her."

Without waiting for Avril to react, David Geffen had already smiled and said:

"This is Miss Avril Lavigne. She's a signed artist to our DreamWorks Music and will be releasing her debut album at the end of the year. By the way, I would like to mention to you that she is a singer that we Mr. Smith actively discovered as a talent scout."

David Geffen's introduction to Avril Avril. It did not elicit a special reaction from the CEOs of the three music giants.

From the appearance alone, Avril Lavigne does look pretty good, very young, and quite beautiful.

But in the music industry.

There are people who are more beautiful than her, and they have a better figure than her. That's more.

These are still the ones who became famous. If you count those rookie singers who have not become famous, then she is nothing from the appearance alone.

As for the inner talents and abilities and so on, before they were shown or had no chance to show them.

And who cares?

But later David Geffen said that she was a singer who was personally excavated by Abel as a talent scout.

The CEOs of the three major music giants suddenly paid attention to her.

To be targeted by a big man like Abel, in addition to being lucky.

They all feel that there should be ability—at least sometimes luck, which is the strongest strength in itself.

The CEOs of the three major music giants have all their eyes on Avril Lavigne at once.

This made the latter even more nervous.

Her little body looked a little shaky.

Fortunately, at this time, Abel, who was also watching Avril just now, finally spoke.

As the core of tonight's cocktail party, Abel smiled and said:

"Yes, I think Miss Lavigny can be a music superstar. Miss Lavigne, you look nervous, how about standing next to me?"

Avril's head was dizzy at this time, and she almost didn't know where she was at this time.

She was confused, and Draven was not.

With a gentle push from the agent, Avril Lavigne involuntarily took two steps forward and stopped beside Abel.

Avril Lavigne's heart was beating like a drum for a while, and her little face was hot.

Fortunately, at this time, everyone's attention was drawn to another topic by Abel's words.

In front of the CEOs of the three major music giants, Abel said directly to Delevingne, a senior partner of CAA:

"Draven, can I trust you to take on any job at CAA?"

Delevingne, who had brought Avril Lavigne to Abel, was stunned, and then a wave of ecstasy welled up in the depths of his heart.

& is one of the senior partners, suppressing his uncontrollable joy.

Draven trembled inwardly, and said in a soft voice, "I think I can. Sir, as long as you trust me!"

"Of course I trust you."

Abel said with a smile.

"Soon after. I will step down as Chairman of the Board of Directors of Innovative Elite Culture Company."

Innovative Elite Culture Company, the full name of AA, the No. 1 entertainment agency in the United States.

"This position will be held by Mr. David Jones."

The name David Jones, CEO of the Big Three

and Avril felt a little strange when they heard it.

But these subordinates of Abel naturally know that this is the general manager of the Smith family office.

He was the boss's number one housekeeper.

Having David Jones in this position is no different from Abel's own AA chairman.

The only difference is that it doesn't look so conspicuous anymore.

After all, Abel is the chairman of Smith Media, and he is also the chairman of AA.

This will have some unpleasant effects on AA's business.

& Don't just serve Smith Media.

As the largest intermediary in the entertainment industry, it still gives full play to its long-sleeved ability to dance, which is more in line with Abel's interests.

Therefore, Abel thought of divest himself from the position of chairman of AA and let David Jones take the position.

When the time comes, all of David's positions in Smith Media will be removed.

On the bright side, AA and Smith Media don't seem to be so close.

Abel whispered again, "And then Michael Ovitz. Ovitz will step down as CEO of CAA. I think Draven is capable of taking on this role and I would recommend you to the Board as the new CEO."

"Is there a problem? Draven."

"No problem."

Draeven suppressed the urge to jump.

He felt that he had finally been able to see the moon when the clouds were open.

It's finally coming out.

"I believe that I will be able to lead AA well and satisfy the shareholders and the board of directors!"

"Hmm." Able nodded in satisfaction, reached out and gently patted Delevingne on the shoulder.

This scene.

David Geffen didn't feel anything.

The richest gay guy in history has a special place in Smith's system.

It's not so much Abel's subordinate, but Abel's guest.

David was relatively independent, so he didn't study Abel's preferences and habits too much.

Draven's good friend Michael is different.

Just by Abel tapping Draven on the shoulder.

Michael Levine knew that his friend had gained the initial trust of his boss.

At this time, Abel stopped talking again, and the CEOs of the other three major music giants said hello to Delevingne.

> The company's revenue capacity is not very strong, and the energy is not very large.

But as the first entertainment intermediary, its influence in the entertainment industry is enough.

It is like a spider, weaving a network of intermediaries that spreads throughout the entertainment circles of Europe and the United States.

Sometimes it's useless, and sometimes it's very useful.

It is as strong as Hollywood giants, and so are music giants who also need intermediary services.

In other words, in the eyes of these people, Delevingne, who is bound to become the CEO of CAA, is already a big man.

To AA's original CEO, Michael Ovitz, Abel gave him a new assignment.

Half an hour later.

Hilton, an executive and suite living room.

"Miss Lavigne. I heard you were looking for me?"

"Huh? I ......."

Avril was stiff, nervous, and her heart was beating like a drum.

She looked at the door of the hotel suite that had just been closed, and then at Abel's feet, not daring to look up.

"Sit down and talk!"

She sat down stiffly.

"Tell me, if you have to let Draven bring you in, or if you have to see me, what the hell do you want to say?"

"Huh? I ......."

She could barely open her mouth, and her mind went blank. What do I want?

Nope! The agent didn't say that I should ask him for anything!

But I can't say that I'm here to hug your thick legs, right?

Or just say, I can sleep with you?! Do I accept your unspoken rules?

She was in a hurry.

The more anxious I was, the more speechless I became.

"Are you usually like this? Can't speak?"

The nervous little quail-like Avril in front of him, Abel felt very strange.

In his mind, Avril should be energetic, petite, but with a high voice.

"Huh? I ......."

Avril was about to cry, "I, I, we're here, I... I—I want to thank you."

It was an excuse that Delevingne had come up with for her.

The excuse when talking to Abel, the excuse is to thank Abel for digging her out.

In order to dig her out, he even had DreamWorks Music buy the record label she worked for.

Avril thought it was a good reason, but she was too nervous to say it at this moment.

After finishing speaking, he quickly explained, "I'm usual, usual...... Not like that!"

After finishing speaking, she realized that she actually stuttered.

Abel smiled, leaning completely against the back of the sofa, lifting Erlang's legs, looking very relaxed, "Are you afraid of me?"

"I, I......"

"Afraid of what? Afraid of me XXX you?"

"Ugh...... No, it's not...... I ......."

Abel suddenly sighed, "I probably know what you're looking for me. Actually, it doesn't have to be like this. Did Draven or Michael hint at you something?"

After a pause, he said, "You're a contracted singer with DreamWorks Music. You also have talent, and David likes you very much. As long as you play well and create well, you will definitely become popular, I believe that."

"However, I can give you a little advice, my personal advice. You are very beautiful, and at the same time you have a rare temperament, which is both confident, energetic, and punk, such a female singer is not available in the market for the time being. Build your first album well, and I think you're going to be on fire."

Avril was speechless.

But she listened very carefully, and surprisingly, when Abel spoke to her so seriously, and even gave advice, she felt that she was much calmer.

The feeling that he listened to every word he said.

"Then ...... That's it, right? I found tonight's party boring. I'm not going out. If you want, you can go out and participate. So many superstar singers' drinking parties will be good for you in the music industry in the future. You can go and get in touch with Draven or Michael with you."

Hearing him say this, Avril suddenly raised her head.

He had already stood up, and he meant to send off the guest.

He's really tall.

So handsome

What does he mean by this, obviously I took the initiative to send it to the door myself.

When they all entered the room, they all said they were defenseless.

For Avril.

With such a handsome guy in front of him, don't say anything super-rich or a super media tycoon.

It's just that he is the person himself, standing in front of any young woman, that kind of charm is unstoppable.

Avril peeked at him just now, and she was a bit of a nymphomaniac.

But this time, I think he seems to be more handsome.

His appearance, his momentum, seems to carry a thick lotus. You. Meng's breath, strong, domineering, and compelling, can drain all of Avril's mind at once.

It was as dazzling as the sun in the sky, like Apollo, which made a woman's heart beat faster and her breath was short.

"If it weren't for you, my agent and Mr. Levine. Even Mr. David Geffen won't take me seriously."

This sentence suddenly blurted out.

Abel stood and looked at her.

She stood up, "I, I'......" plucked up her courage

After that, it was only enough for her to support one sentence.

Before she could say the next words, her face was already flushed.

His eyes only touched Abel's eyes, and he seemed to be burned, and quickly lowered his head again.

His eyes were shining.

Snatching the light.

As if he really was Apollo.

Although she was so nervous that she couldn't speak, the corner of her eye kept her eyes on him.

He seemed to sigh, raised his wrist to look at his watch, and then walked away.

Avril's heart sank.

Messed up.

Definitely messed up.

The agent said to her.

Thighs to hug, and don't ask for face.

But...... My damn self-confidence and little temper!!

Avril Lavigne!

Where is your courage? How confident do you look?

You should be brave, take the initiative to take off your clothes, and take the initiative to hug him!

& That's it, what's the big deal! What will happen after all!

Instead of being with other objects, it's better to be with him!

Even with this face and this figure, I don't suffer at all!

When I feel sorry for myself.

At the door of the hotel suite, there was the sound of the door opening.

"Huh? Someone? Is it a little girl?"

A voice came from a *** person, and Avril quickly looked up.

She saw the place at the door, Abel holding a beautiful girl who walked in from outside, and the girl said it.

"It's not small."

Avril saw Able reach out and hug her, and kissed her as if no one was around.

A kiss was provoked.

Miss Lavigny was instantly red-faced.

Suddenly, another girl walked in from outside the door, looking at Abel and the girl in front of her with a smile on her face.

Avril Lavigne's eyes widened.

Wow!

Is it so straightforward?!

At this time, Avril felt that the two of them were very familiar, and they were both very beautiful and beautiful.

The moment Avril saw the girl, the girl had already seen Avril.

The girl who came in behind seemed to be stunned for a moment, and the smile on her face was slightly stiff.

But the next moment, Able had let go of the one in front of him and held out his hand to her.

Her eyes flashed on Avril, smiled at Abel, walked over softly, was held in his arms, and kissed for more than ten seconds.

Avril was dumbfounded.

I've heard for a long time that Abel Smith is surrounded by many lovers.

But she still didn't expect that there would be two at the same time......

Standing behind the three men and women who hugged each other, Avril felt that her three views had been shattered.

Brain buzzing.

In the next scene, she only saw Abel stretching out his hand and patting the two beautiful women's butts, and said:

"Let's go, let's go back to the room first."

Then he let go of them, and walked past the stunned Avril Lavigne to the master bedroom of the hotel suite.

The two beautiful girls did not hesitate and also crossed Avril.

It's just that before entering the room, the two beautiful girls looked back almost at the same time in perfect understanding.

Avril froze in place.

Don't dare to look at each other.

At the same time, she recognized their identities.

are two European female stars who are not famous in Hollywood.

They had previously been in some entertainment newspapers, Sophie Marceau, who had begun to have an affair with Abel Smith, and a Spanish national treasure, Penelope Cruz.

Looking at the three people who disappeared into the room.

Ivy is still in the living room

Son, my head is completely dizzy.

At this point, she didn't know whether she should leave or stay here.

If she left, Avril always felt that all her previous mental preparations had been in vain.

That would give her the feeling that the sunk costs were completely lost.

Get in

Just thinking about it, her legs and feet are weak, and her whole body is weak.

Ten minutes later, Avril was finished fighting between heaven and man.

She gritted her teeth and stood up.

I walked to the master bedroom of the hotel.

Hold the doorknob and open the door. Only one gap was opened.

The wonderful aria of life came out instantly, and Avril's face turned even redder.
