[US Entertainment] From web dramas to Oscars

Chapter 8

In fact, Fopper knows a little bit about the storms on the Internet and even in reality.

But he didn't have so much time to care about this these days.Because a few friends came from the United States...

When: July [-]th.

Location: In an exquisite coffee shop.

"Hello!" He shook hands with the young man in front of him very formally: "You can call me Phoebes."

"Hi, I'm Chris Hughes. However, just call me Chris." The young man, or Hughes said with a smile: "No wonder Ms. Alexia told me that you are in the entertainment industry. That's how it should be, if you don't allow it, your name will be wasted, haha." Hughes made a joke.

"Oh? Why do you say that?" Alexia, who was an intermediary, was a little curious. She was a million times unfavorable to Fopper.Not only because a real estate student traveled thousands of miles to play in the entertainment industry, but also because he bound her baby with a piece of paper.What's ridiculous is that she still has no way to get rid of this burden for various reasons.

"Phoppers is another name for Apollo." Hughes said with a smile: "Apollo is known as the god of art. Maybe Phoppers can reach this level." Although he knew this Hughes' compliment.But I have to say that his words with a smile can always make people feel close.

"Thank you." Smiling and nodding to Hughes, "I also hope that this will be the case in the future."

"Haha, I believe it will." Hughes said, "By the way, I heard that you are also from Harvard?"

"No, I just stayed there for two years as an exchange student. The environment at Harvard is really amazing..." It seems that there are many endless topics to chat with Hughes. The school started chatting to the social level.The only word that can describe it is to hate each other.

"Gentlemen..." Alexia, who was sitting on the side, couldn't stand it any longer.He could only interrupt the two of them: "We have another purpose today..."

"It's not in a hurry, is it?" Fopper smiled and said to Alexia, then turned to Hughes and said, "Chris, I should take you to Shanghai for a while, this is Huaxia one of the economic centers of

"Of course." Hughes also agreed with a smile at this time.

"Then it's decided like this." Standing up, Fopper led Hughes towards the door: "That's right..." At this time, Fopper who was leading Hughes turned his head and looked at Ellie who was still on the seat. Kexia: "Alexia, do you want...to come too?"

'What's the tone of your question? 'Alexia really wanted to ask at this moment: Fopper, do you mean you don't want me to go or something.

"Of course." Raising her eyebrows, Alexia continued to speak expressionlessly: "I also want to see what China's economic center looks like." In fact, Alexia is really She didn't want to come. For an agent, she had already been to Shanghai many times since she flew all over the world.But... watching Hughes and Fopper continue to talk happily.Alexia thinks it's better to follow.She always has a sense of seeing that her daughter-in-law is having an affair and she is still watching.

"It's all and what..." Shaking her head and putting her weird thoughts behind her, Alexia followed Fopper and Hughes with standard and capable steps.

In fact, Fopper didn't really like Hughes that much at the beginning, it was just that he subconsciously catered to Hughes at the beginning.After all, the future achievements of this young man are simply unimaginable.He not only created the most famous SNS website in the world with his partners, but also became the activity director of the senator at the time when he was in his twenties. As the last pusher, he successfully pushed the senator to become the president bit.And he was the first black president of the United States in history!

So because of these various reasons, Fopper catered to Hughes in the first place with hugging his thighs and complimenting him, even if he is not so heaven-defying now.However, in the subsequent communication process, Fopper felt that the two of them really hit it off.Even in this day and age, Hughes doesn't hide the fact that he is gay.After his cryptic question, he told Fopper very naturally.There was no affectation or hesitation at all.In his words, it is: "After that, we will be partners, aren't we? Besides, aren't we friends now?"

"Yeah." Infected by Hughes' smile, Fopper wanted to come out with Hughes.It's just that there was an Alexia beside him to stop the interruption, so he didn't come out successfully.

Taking Hughes and Alexia around for a whole day, the Pearl Tower, the China National Convention Center... One by one the famous classics were stamped with the footprints of Fopper and others.It wasn't until early in the morning that Fopper sent Hughes and Alexia back to the hotel.

Although Fopper also wants to continue to play with Hughes for a few more days, but on July [-]th he needs to rush to the crew to shoot "Sofia's Diary", so Fopper can only talk to Hughes as soon as possible. Hughes began cooperation negotiations.

I don't know if it's because it's still early, or because the relationship with Hughes really reached the level of close friends overnight.The negotiation between Fopper and Hughes went so smoothly that it can no longer be called a negotiation.Every proposal is basically two people talking about it, and then the other party agrees after thinking about it.In this way, Fopper spent 600 million yuan, or about 30.00 US dollars, to obtain 15.00% of Facebook's original shares and became the second largest shareholder of Facebook.Of course, this original stock will be diluted as it continues to be occupied by foreign capital.But when signing the contract, Fopper also proposed that his shares would not be allowed to be changed when they were diluted to [-]%.

"Very well, Foppers, you are now tied to our ship." After ceremonially shaking hands with Foppers after signing the contract, Hughes said with a smile.

"That's right. I don't believe my vision is not bad enough." For this deal, Fopper knew that he had taken a big deal.So he also smiled and said, "So what else do you have to do next?" Suddenly thought of something, and at this moment Fopper spoke.

"Well... I think I should go back to the United States with Ms. Alexia. However, I have nothing to do when I go back to the United States."

"Why don't you just stay in Shanghai for a while?" Fopper suggested, "You know, I'm filming a campus web drama right now, maybe you can play a guest role in it. And, after the filming , you can also bring the web drama over there and put it on Facebook. You have heard my idea, the web drama "Sofia Diary" will definitely become popular on the Internet."

"In fact, your proposal touched my heart." Hearing Fopper's words, Hughes thought for a while, and then said with a smile.He knew about Fopper's filming of the web drama when he was chatting yesterday, and he was very optimistic about the prospect of this web drama. In fact, the video sharing website mentioned by Fopper moved him even more. Last night, he made an overseas call to another partner in the United States, Mark Zuckerberg, overnight.What Fopper didn't know was that just because of his talk yesterday, the website Youtube appeared in this world in another form.

"I think sir, I have to remind you that our plane tickets are already booked." At this time, Alexia, who had been transparent for two whole days, spoke, and then reminded Hughes.

"That's no problem. I think I can still afford the airfare." The more Fopper thought about this proposal, the more meaningful it became.In fact, if "Sofia's Diary" is promoted by Facebook, then its congenital weakness due to the yellow race will disappear.And if Hughes is allowed to show his face in it, "Sofia's Diary" can also be hung with the names of Chinese and foreign actors.There are benefits no matter how you look at it.

On the other hand, Hughes is also planning for the video sharing website they will open in the future. This matter needs to be researched with the real founder in front of him, and he has also read the script of "Sophia's Diary". It is indeed attractive, and it would be great if this web drama can be used to promote their subsequent video sites.

So the two hit it off, and in this way, Alexia boarded the plane back to the United States alone.In fact, Alexia didn't want to go back either.But she had to go back.As an agent, she has been out for [-] days is already the limit.If it continues to disappear, there will be chaos on Chris' side.Therefore, she could only set foot on the plane to Los Angeles, USA with a strange mood.

After sending Alexia back, Fopper brought new actor Hughes to their set the next day, and then announced that their web drama "Sophia's Diary" was officially launched.

In fact, it is a studio, and it is just a classroom rented at the Shanghai Academy of Drama.But this is not important, nor will it affect the excitement of these novice actors and directors.
