Hollywood superstars: Start as a child star

Drinking Coffee with Aunt Rowling

“Ms. Rowling, I am so lucky to meet you! Please allow me to pay tribute to you and thank you for writing “Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone”, a book that changed my world view. I began to have no doubt that when I was 11 years old, an owl really came to deliver a letter to me, but I missed it!” Claire was a little excited. After many years of fans, they finally met their ancestors in the wizarding world.

Although in later generations, Rowling made a lot of tricks to cater to the leftist trend of thought. But as the creator of the magical world, her achievements are unquestionable.

“Thank you~Claire Dylan.” Rowling sat down and saw three of her books spread out on the table. “This is the first time I’ve met fans since the book was published. Haha, to be honest, I’m pretty excited too.” Excited and nervous.”

“Ms. Rowling, please sign the book and keep it as a souvenir for me. These are the books I plan to give to my family.” Claire took out the signature pen and handed it to Rowling.

“Haha, okay~” Luo Lin was very happy. She happily took the book and pen and signed her name and a simple message on the title page.

Rowling smiled while signing: “Since the publisher agreed to publish “Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone” for me, I started secretly practicing signing at home. Until today, I finally have a use for it! Hahao(*￣︶￣*)o”

Claire thought to herself, if you wait a month or two, you will be too soft on the signatures. Haha~

“This is my agent, Roxy Ferguson!” Claire introduced her companion to Rowling.

“First meeting, Ms. Rowling.” Roxy greeted, “I have also read your works. As an adult, I will also be deeply attracted by the magical world you wrote.” “Really?”

Rowling His eyes widened and he covered his mouth. Very happy and in disbelief, “This is so unexpected. I thought only children might like it. This is such a surprise to me!” “Of course.

Speaking of which, I unknowingly saw more than two o’clock last night. !” Roxy testified with a smile.

“What?” Rowling didn’t say anything yet, but Claire next to her was extremely surprised.

“Ms. Rowling, is this book only published and sold in the UK?” Claire asked.

“Yes, according to the information I got from the publisher, it is currently only available in bookstores in major cities such as London, Manchester, Birmingham, and Liverpool. It has not yet been rolled out in the north of Scotland.” Rowling’s tone was also full of disappointment. Some complain that the publisher’s promotion efforts are not strong, which affects book sales.

“Oh, that’s such a pity. My American friends will probably have to wait a long, long time to see Harry Potter.” Claire sighed in agreement. He also winked at Roxy suggestively, indicating that she could tell her true purpose.

Roxy noticed his little movement and didn’t react. Claire was puzzled, but not too entangled, and then chatted with Rowling about other things.

“I heard on the phone yesterday that you came to the UK to film a movie?” Rowling asked curiously.

“Yes, the name of the movie is “Billy Elliot”. It is a feature film about dreams and family. It should be released in the UK at the end of this year. You are welcome to watch it and I will send you the movie when the time comes. Ticket!” Now that Claire sees someone, she starts Amway’s new movie, and Aunt Rowling doesn’t want to let it go.

“Yeah, I will definitely go and see it.” Rowling looked at Claire, who had black hair in front of her, and sighed, “Harry also has the same black hair as you, and if you wear glasses, he looks similar. ”

I also like Harry very much. He is a little boy full of courage and love.” Claire said with a wry smile, “I am already a high school student, and the little Harry in the book is still a primary school student.” “Haha, I think so.

” It’s too far.” Rowling shook her head with a self-deprecating smile, “Claire Dylan? Dylan, are you British too?” ”

My father is of Welsh descent. My grandfather’s generation immigrated to San Francisco on the west coast of the United States. “Claire explained simply.

“Haha, then we can barely be considered fellow villagers! My hometown is Gwent County in Wales.” Rowling smiled, “Did your pure black hair come from your mother? I remember that there are very few Welsh people. Black hair.”

“Well, let’s forget it. To be precise, it should come from my grandmother, she is Chinese. My mother is of mixed Chinese and American descent.” Claire explained seriously.

“Oh, no wonder, Chinese people have the purest black hair…”

…

on the way back after a brief chat with Luo Lin.

“Roxy, I just gave you a hint, why didn’t you respond?” Claire asked as she sat in the taxi.

“It’s our first meeting today, so it’s not appropriate to talk about those things directly.” Roxy explained. “When you go back, call Rowling again and tell her that your agent has found a major local bookseller in the United States who can help spread the word across the United States. And Canadian distribution and publication of her new book.”

“This makes it seem natural.” Roxy added, “You know, Fox also has a strong book sales channel and publicity network.” “Amazing!”

Claire was in admiration, “She is really old. Traitor… no, business wizard Roxy!”

“Indeed, Rowling is most concerned about book sales at the moment, not the so-called movie adaptation. We talked about the movie adaptation at the time, and she must have thought that we were Liar.” Claire reacted. The occasion just now was indeed not suitable for talking about serious matters. They were still very unfamiliar to each other and were in a defensive psychological stage.

“Yes, you call Rowling tomorrow and give her my contact information. You don’t have to worry about the rest.” “OK! Seeing how

confident you are, the copyright of “Harry Potter” should be Are you ready?” Claire asked.

“It’s not easy to get it, but I believe that as long as we sincerely help, Rowling will be willing to cooperate with us.”

Listening to Roxy’s official response, Claire was speechless. He did not continue to pursue his own benefits. After all, Roxy won’t treat him badly after everything is done.

…

On Wednesday, Claire’s UK tour will come to an end and she is preparing to return to Los Angeles.

It’s mid-September, and last month, freshmen at San Fernando High School started school. Claire called the principal to apologize for not being able to return to school in time.

The principal happily said that it didn’t matter at all. The school fully supports each student’s personality development path, etc. The central idea to sum up is: feel free to go out and have fun, as long as you pay the tuition in time.

On Monday, Claire followed Roxy’s instructions and had a phone call with Rowling. Rowling on the other end of the phone was obviously very surprised after hearing this. The markets in the United States and Canada are so huge that the sales volume can be many times better than a small island in the United Kingdom.

As a divorced single mother, Rowling is still in desperate need of money. She still has great expectations for the sales of the novel.
