Chapter 274: The Banquet and the Wolf of Wall Street

“If I could save time in a bottle

If only I could keep the time in a bottle

The first thing that I like to do

The first thing I want to do

Is to save everyday till eternity passes away

It is to preserve every day until eternity is gone......"

During the song, Mark Frank put on his coat and stepped out of the car.

I walked into the restaurant where I worked.

A small private party is being held here today.

Mark knew that the people who came were either rich or expensive, so he was extra careful and meticulously arranged his clothes.

Entering the hotel, the security management immediately came up and handed Mark a headset: "Be careful, don't be distracted, if you spill the soup and wine on the guests, you will be finished, I can't stand it." ”

Mark nodded earnestly.

Mark used to be a senior white-collar worker, but he lost his job last year when the country's financial turmoil hit him for a while.

The house was almost repossessed, not to mention the car.

I'm almost going to sleep on the streets and become a homeless person.

Here, once you lose your job and become a homeless person, there is no turning back, and most of the homeless people on the street are college graduates.

At the most critical time, Mark found this job serving dishes, because his appearance is quite marked, and his conversation is very good, he quickly stabilized in this high-end restaurant team, so he did not become a homeless man.

After all, the probability of "When Happiness Knocks on the Door" is less than 1 in 10,000, so Mark cherishes this job.

As soon as he entered the restaurant, Mark saw Coppola raise his glass and greet the man, "Hey Henry, it's late." ”

Henry laughed: "Damn, I was fishing in the waters of North Newfoundland, and after receiving your call, I borrowed a friend's helicopter from Gamata, and then rushed to the airport to take a private jet, and you actually blamed me for being late." ”

Coppola and Henry joked, holding a wine glass in his hand, and pointed into the distance: "Introduce you to a friend in a moment." ”

Henry looked up.

Mark looked up as well.

Mark couldn't believe it.

Because he saw the idol in his life.

Han ...... Han Zhou...... It's Han Shen!! ”

When he saw Han Zhou at the scene, Mark's mind cleared up.

He wanted an autograph.

However, private drinking parties are often attended by celebrities, and it is expressly forbidden to sign autographs.

But Mark wasn't ready to give up.

So Mark took the champagne and shook it in front of Han Zhou.

I was going to find an angle and swing it back, but I didn't expect the champagne to be taken away and put on the empty glass.

So Mark quickly returned to the table with a plate of empty glasses, and set off with champagne again.

When passing by Han Zhou's side, he slowed down.

At this time, Coppola was saying: "Henry, my friend, a famous actor. ”

Han Zhou smiled: "I've watched "Northern Forest". ”

Henry laughed: "I really like to listen to your songs, and I have watched a lot of your movies, so I have the opportunity to work together." ”

"I know you're going to have a long wait for your next project, maybe you're working on this one right now, and I can make a cameo role."

Han Zhou was ecstatic in his heart, and he still smiled lightly: "Okay, let your assistant give me the schedule, and I will arrange a suitable role for you at that time." ”

Coppola laughed: "Come, for the new role, a toast." ”

Henry saw Mark next to him, beckoned, put the wine glass in his hand on the plate, and picked up a new one.

Coppola also smiled and took a glass.

Mark immediately turned back to serve the wine.

Coppola: "To be honest, I was blown away this time, and when this film is made, it will be a global hit." ”

"It's just that I don't like the role too much this time, it's actually a young and handsome mathematician role."

Henry smiled and looked at Han Zhou: "Shouldn't I play the role of a young and handsome mathematician?" Shall we just kick Michael out? Hahahaha. ”

Han Zhou: "That character needs to learn some Chinese, and Coppola has been learning it for a long time." ”

"But I think you're fit to play an action movie tough guy."

When Henry heard Han Zhou say this, he instantly became happy: "Really? ”

He bent his arm as he spoke: "I also think I have this talent." ”

Although there is no muscle visible under the suit, it can be seen that Henry is quite stinky and beautiful.

Coppola sighed: "Forget it, I can bear it when I'm young, I think it's okay to play the role of a mathematician, where do you have anything to do with handsome?" I also play action movie tough guys, but speaking of which, I've acted in four or five action movies. ”

"Hollywood directors still have very good eyes, I know you can't shoot, I did."

Henry patted Coppola on the shoulder: "A big director can see that you can make action movies, but a bigger director can see that I can make action movies." ”

Han Zhou knows a lot of people, and Henry is the first to be able to make such a proper slap when he is joking.

What a big director, what a bigger director.

Coppola smiled: "In the field of action movies, Huaguo is still very strong, didn't Han shoot a "Kung Fu" before, and it was also released in North America, do you see it?" ”

Henry: "Of course I did, I'm a kung fu fan. ”

"The movie is really good, the only downside is ......"

Coppola and Han Zhou looked at Henry.

Henry: "The only downside is that I didn't play the Axe Gang boss. ”

"I love that character, it's challenging."

While a few people were chatting, Mark was about to leave with a drink.

The bartender asked, "With so many drinkers, why do you keep coming here?" ”

Mark glanced back at the rest of the world, a lot of celebrities, Hollywood filmmakers, and some local tycoons.

They were all chatting in their own small circles.

Mark smiled: "A few gentlemen over here, drink fast. ”

A few people chatted, Mark came over, Han Zhou changed a glass of wine, and Henry changed another glass.

Coppola shook his shoulders and said, "Han Ke is my lucky star. ”

"I was in a lot of debt."

"After filming "King of War", I took on four dramas in a row, and it took five months to shoot together, and I paid off the bills."

"Now, the depressed Coppola has become the dashing Coppola again."

Speaking of happiness, Coppola pulled Mark's shoulder: "You said yes." ”

Mark smiled, "Sir, during the financial turmoil, I also went bankrupt, but I didn't have the good fortune to meet a good person like Mr. Han Zhou like you." ”

"I'm jealous, but congratulations on paying off your debts."

Han Zhou and Henry both laughed.

Coppola smiled exaggeratedly, put his arm around Mark's neck, and waved his hand: "See, there are rich people here, find a job with anyone, and you can be as chic as Coppola." ”

"Or I'll show you one."

"Seeing that woman doesn't, she is very, very rich, and likes men with good figures, if you grow a little beard, maybe you have a chance to be on the list."

Mark smiled: "Mr. Coppola, your ex-girlfriend knows what you said, I don't know if I have to break my face." ”

Coppola smiled in a good mood: "You bring a glass of wine, call her over, and say that I will introduce Han to her." ”

In fact, Michael Coppola held this drinking party, and many of the people who came wanted to make friends with Han Zhou.

But they also have their own status and will not rush over.

Need a referral from the host.

If you don't have the opportunity today, you can participate in a few more common drinking parties, or you will naturally get to know each other by chance.

But they didn't know that if it wasn't for Coppola's invitation, Han Zhou wouldn't have come out to drink at all.

Han Zhou is now preparing for the finals, and Coppola is specially rushing back to participate in the finals to support Han Zhou.

That's why Han Zhou came to this cocktail party.

After a while, Coppola watched Mark talking to his ex-girlfriend Julie Houston, and said to Han Zhou: "Julie is now one of the most well-known female stars in the whole of Hollywood, although she has not won any awards, but with her movies, many passers-by and fans are willing to spend money." ”

Han Zhou nodded: "Then maybe in the next movie, you can try to cooperate." ”

Coppola: "That's not necessary, but if you have a new character in your new Twilight movie, you can find her." ”

While the three of them were talking, Julie had already arrived.

smiled: "Michael, I didn't expect you to turn over so quickly." ”

Coppola opened his arms: "Who am I?" I am the great Coppola! ”

Henry was serious: "Julie, you snatched my gem last time, and then hid from me for so long, and finally caught me." ”

Julie patted Henry's big arm: "Don't be so stingy, besides, I helped you save money, if that gem was bought by you and given to your ex-girlfriend, and now you break up again, isn't it a big loss?" ”

Coppola: "Forget it, he doesn't lack a gem for money." ”

"Let me introduce you, Han Zhou, don't you need me to introduce me more?"

Julie stepped forward and hugged Han Zhou: "Do you have a girlfriend?" Do I still have a chance? ”

Coppola smiled: "Han is so popular, you can line up." ”

Julie: "Oh, then it's not that lucky, I really like your song "We Will Rock You". ”

Han Zhou was happy: "We are talking, saying that you are very suitable for a role in "Twilight 3" and have the opportunity to cooperate." ”

Julie: "Okay, I'm idle, I'll go if there's a play, but there are too many scenes and little money, so I can't go." ”

Han Zhou: "How about a role with less scenes and less money?" Leave you some time. ”

Julie: "Oh, that's not bad, but I prefer the "Death is Coming" series, can Death Comes 3 make me the heroine?" ”

Han Zhou was stunned for a moment: "The Grim Reaper 3 has not started filming for the time being, and we are planning another horror film series." ”

"But you do need a heroine, but there are not many scenes in the first part, if you are interested, you can sign four films."

Julie pondered for a moment: "A new horror film series? Is there a Grim Reaper coming to be a horror? ”

Han Zhou: "Far exceeded." ”

Julie: "Okay, I believe you, you can read the script of the first part." ”

While chatting, Mark came over again.

A few people chatted, and Mark was always around the neighborhood, ready to serve.

There will also be a short conversation at a time.

Julie suddenly said: "I think this bartender is very handsome, and he looks quite cultured, can people with this kind of condition only be a bartender now?" ”

Coppola: "You think you're right, I think this guy is pretty good. ”

"But this is Luoshanji, and this kind of is not 100,000 but also 90,000."

Every year, a large number of people come to Luoshanji with the dream of stardom.

How many people became stars in the end?

Almost, I can only barely find a job in the theater or something.

Some people can be a drama actor in some small local parks and small theaters.

More people, after spending all their savings, are desperate and can't find a job, and finally go to make triple-A masterpieces, commonly known as adult channel movies.

That's pretty good.

Many people are not good-looking, they can't even rank small movies, and there are many people who do leather and meat business locally.

Every day, the big stars talk about seeing a new person or someone who is good.

But if you really believe them, that's the beginning of the nightmare.

Han Zhou rarely commented: "He chose the wrong line, if he starts to prepare to develop on the road of an actor before he is an adult, he will definitely fascinate thousands of girls." ”

"Now the appearance can only be said to be barely strong."

This man looks a bit like a little plum.

If you were like Xiao Lizi when you were young, it would really be God's appreciation.

However, a large number of actors were originally eating a youth meal, and they couldn't find a film appointment once the youth passed.

I didn't enter this industry when I was young, and it was even more difficult to come in after thirty.

When Mark came over again.

Henry picked up a glass of wine and asked, "Do you know how to act?" ”

Mark: "I play ...... every day"

No, how to tell the truth.

Mark smiled awkwardly, "No." ”

Han Zhou was stunned for a moment and asked, "Tell me, why are you acting every day." ”

Mark looked at Coppola: "There's still no need to say it." ”

Coppola put the glass down: "I know, I know!" You're in finance, aren't you!! ”

Aren't the employees of financial institutions acting every day?

Always tell customers that this stock fund can make money, even if it collapses in the face, but also tell them: "Technical adjustments, immediately become popular!" ”

"Let's wait and see if I'm going to buy a Ferrari or a Bentley."

In terms of acting, professional actors may not necessarily have them to act.

More often than not, of course, they rely on words to make people feel believable, rather than body movements and expressions.

After all, transactions and contacts are generally made by phone.

Han Zhou's eyes suddenly lit up.

Now the New World has come to the development of the United States.

There must be enough films.

It's not just money-making movies, but not-so-money-making movies that need to be made.

It is necessary to provide enough movies for the theater chain in order to keep their distribution in a high-intensity state for a long time and to stabilize the network.

Therefore, New World is ready to launch a lot of film projects in Hollywood.

Han Zhou also chose a lot.

But seeing Mark today, Han Zhou felt that "The Wolf of Wall Street" and "Cat and Mouse Game" seemed to be a try.

"Did you bring your phone!?" Han Zhou asked.

Mark was stunned for a moment.

Han Zhou: "Did you bring it?" ”

Mark nodded: "Bring it." ”

Han Zhou: "Very good, I'll give you a number, and you go and convince him to buy the original shares of a very junk stock." ”

Mark was stunned, selling stocks in the void?

Han Zhou: "That's it, this stock is a stock of a satellite TV announcer workshop established in the central state, 0.8 US dollars per share, under this condition, you can sell it at any price." ”

As he spoke, Han Zhou showed Mark Timo's phone.

Mark took out his phone: "Tricky friend, I'll try." ”

Mark is a fan of Han Zhou, don't you know that Timo is Han Zhou's partner?

I didn't have any worries, so I picked up the phone and dialed it out and started to flicker.

After listening to Mark's introduction, Timo was a little confused: "No, what kind of financial company do you call to sell stocks at ten o'clock in the evening?" ”

Mark's voice was full of seduction: "Mr. Pushkin, it is well known that all industries under the sun are unprofitable industries. ”

"Our stock is a very high-quality stock, and owning it now is equivalent to owning a blue chip stock in the future."

"This trade certainly can't be done in the sun."

"During the day, I will only contact big customers and large companies that are willing to invest through the company's official channels, and only at night, I will use private channels to make a little money, you know."

Teemo thought it was strange, "Are you sure it's legitimate?" ”

Mark: "We recommend that the company's products are the product of new technology, serving all the top TV stations in the United States, and doing business with many high-tech companies, which is absolutely trustworthy." ”

Mark didn't lie, the satellite pot lid is indeed for all the top TV stations in the United States.

Teemo hesitated.

Mark continued: "We are now trading at $6 a share internally, and the OPI that will be going on soon will be $17, and right now, our original shares are selling for just 70 cents. ”

"If it weren't for the strict inspection by the Securities Regulatory Commission, I would not have been able to contact my old customers, and this opportunity would not have flowed out at all."

"You believe and understand the specific matters in it, don't you need me to describe it too much?"

Teemo quickly typed into the computer, "Wait a minute. ”

Teemo calculated that he would buy him 100,000 US dollars, and soon it would become 2.5 million US dollars!

Timo tried: "Then why don't I buy 100,000 dollars?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Coppola whispered next to him: "How could this guy lose his job?" Unscientific. ”

And Mark continued: "Hahahaha, Mr. Pushkin, you are joking, we are a very large stock, 100,000 funds have not reached the entry line, if it is an investment of this level, I will directly give the money to distant relatives at home, and let them help me buy it, won't I earn this money by myself?" ”

"At least 300,000 US dollars will be invested."

Timo pondered, "Is this so, 300,000 dollars is not a small number." ”

Mark: "Sir, think about it, would I call someone who can't afford to sell this stock?" ”

"The fact that your phone number appears in my phone book means that this number is just a small amount of money for you."

"I look forward to a long-term relationship with you, and there will be more returns in the future than this stock, but there is more room for manoeuvre."

"However, I have to determine your strength, although your name has already told me that you have this strength, but you know, financial trading is a math problem, and math problems ultimately need to see numbers."

Teemo: "Okay, I'll buy 500,000 dollars, but I need a copy of your formal transaction documents and qualifications." ”

Mark: "No problem, my secretary will contact you next." ”

Han Zhou, who listened to the phone, took the phone: "Timo." ”

On the other end of the line, Teemo was stunned for a moment.

The sound was all too familiar.

Han Zhou: "You should stay away from the financial market. ”

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Coppola was surprised: "No, how can you be unemployed with this ability?" ”

Mark was silent for a moment and spoke, "This ...... The...... It's relatively easy...... Well. ”

Not everyone is so fond of getting rich and so superstitious about getting rich, so not everyone can't hear the pitfalls contained here.

And not everyone can come up with that much money.

Han Zhou smiled: "Michael, Timo is as anxious about finance as you are. ”

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Mark: "Imagine if you were a mysterious rich man. ”

"Stand in the middle of your own castle."

"Invite the entire high society of twists to the banquet."

"In the midst of the brilliant fireworks, you raise your glass and invite everyone to raise your glass, without talking, just moving."

Marx paused, picked up his glass, and learned the movements of the drinker he had ever seen with the most grace and the most impressive to him, with a relaxed smile on his face, as if a little cynical, and some joy at the corners of his mouth.

It can be seen that he seems to be interested in the party, but not much, because one hand is in his trouser pocket.

Make a toast motion, lean slightly sideways, and give a wink.

Julie took a look at it and commented: "It does look like a rich man." ”

Henry: "If you change to the hairstyle of a rich man in the twentieth century, it will be a little more persuasive." ”

Han Zhou thought for a moment: "Mark, come to the new world, if you can really learn to act." ”

"Next year you'll be a guest here, not a bartender."

Mark froze.

Coppola laughed: "As I said, people here are either rich or expensive, as long as anyone gives you a job, you will have everything you want to have." ”

"But I didn't expect you to get the best job you can get here."

"Ordinary people can't meet opportunities in a hundred years or a thousand years."

Mark was so excited that he didn't know how he left his contact information, how he finished the aftermath of the dinner, and he couldn't remember how he got back home and sat on the couch.

Mark only knew that he seemed to be going to become famous overnight.

……

Coppola drank too much, and the driver sent Coppola and Han Zhou back, anyway, along the way.

Before Han Zhou got out of the car, Coppola muttered this and asked: "Hiccup~ What song are you going to sing in the final?" ”

Han Zhou smiled: "I'll know when the time comes." ”

After Coppola's car left, Wang Xiya, who was wearing a shawl, walked out: "Can you still go?" ”

Han Zhou waved his hand: "You can go." ”

Wang Xiya: "Coppola has just gotten rid of debt, and he squandered ...... like this"

Han Zhou: "When he squanders it, he will rely on us even more." ”

"There are many such actors and big actors in Hollywood."

"These people are the cornerstone of what we are doing here."

Wang Xiya nodded: "That's right, but aren't you supposed to be his friend?" ”

Han Zhou: "I treat him as a friend, but a friend is a friend, and money is money." ”

"I can't just hold him down and tell him not to spend money, can I? That's his wife's job. ”

Wang Xiya: "Then you are mistaken, the wives of the Mi people can't do this job, and the wives of the Mi people, especially the wives of their actors, will only take half of his family property when they divorce." ”

Han Zhou smiled and took Wang Xiya's hand: "Fortunately, you are from China." ”

There was no word, but Wang Xiya's face flushed.

It seems that after the last time, Wang Xiya has no intention of leaving in a hurry.

I don't know what she said to An Lan.

But in short, Han Zhou doesn't have the time to think about why now.

Han Zhou seems to have gotten used to sitting back and enjoying what he does.

A day later, Chen Feng and Liu Yiling came over together and also lived in this villa.

Han Zhou wants to take them to rehearse, and he has to be a tour guide, driver, shopping guide, and take them to play.

That is, Brother Feng, if you change someone, Han Zhou will not be this driver.

However, Chen Feng is also under pressure and does need to walk around.

Chen Feng is a representative of Chinese rock and roll, and he is the only representative.

This time, I have to confront the singers on the side of the United States in "Singing".

It's a shame to lose.

Chen Feng was worried that he was about to retire, and he was still pulling Han Zhou's hind legs.
