Xiangjiang old events [entertainment circle]
Chapter 199
Because in English, after a million (million) comes directly to a billion (billion), so the "million" used in this original novel called "Brewster's Millions" actually refers to It is like the adjective Su Yun adapted into a script and changed it to "hundreds of millions" which looks more embarrassing but has the same general meaning.
It just so happens that she has really become a billionaire recently—although most of them are non-cash assets that are difficult to realize and only rely on conversion estimates, but is there any rich person in the world who really only counts cash?
Isn't it all about adding a little here and there, and even properties with negative equity can be included, and then brag about how much you are worth to others?
It was also for this reason that Su Yun's sudden wealth did not attract too many coveted hearts.
She is now under the Zhao family's protection, which is equivalent to sitting on the same boat with the Zhao family and other families who have good friends with the Zhao family. The big community is afraid of being closely related to these families on the surface and in private. In the cooperative business, unless the face is really torn, otherwise the "partner" will not be easily touched.
The only thing to be wary of is those small and medium-sized associations that are not large enough, or those who think they are dead, so they dare to fight for money. Most of the kidnapping cases of rich children are from them hands.
While Su Yun was thinking this way, she also thought about finding someone to help hire some honest and reliable bodyguards to guard the family: Although her master Lu Shaolong is not in the Jianghu, but Yu Wei is still there, maybe she can ask her master for help and find some from Dragon and Tiger martial arts masters or retired practitioners from the martial arts gym, if they can find a few seniors who have practiced, that would be the best.
After roughly confirming the style and features of the soundtrack of the new drama with Lu Guting, Su Yun will take Zhuang Long and Bo En, the male one and the male two of the two new dramas, to participate in various variety shows Promote the event.
As a producer and director, Zhuang Long and Byrne have not been back to Xiangjiang for many years, and the other has just arrived. In addition, she is the only woman among the two, so Su Yun felt that she sat in the middle and took care of the side during the interview. The two of them are fine...
Holding the cover of the latest one out of the oven, it is brightly printed with "Big Rich, Big Noble, New Year's Eve!"Su Yun sighed deeply: She still underestimated the imagination and creativity of the Hong Kong media.
I thought the title on the cover was outrageous enough, but when I opened the inside, they gave her a "well-designed" nickname, which was even more outrageous: the two full pages were like the tone of those storytellers under the flyover when they talked about the old man It seems that from Zhou Yuanfa in "A Natural Couple" to Zhuang Long and Bo En in the new drama in the future, after teasing the domestic and foreign male stars that Su Yun has worked with since she was a child, she just spoke cleverly Through the above summary, she leads to her latest flower name "Little Harvester"...
When Zhuang Long and the Mei sisters saw the title and nickname, they nearly collapsed from laughter on the sofa.
On the contrary, the two brothers Wang Jiayun and Wang Jiaxiang were loyal enough, resisting the urge to laugh, twisting their faces and comforting Su Yun while clenching their fists: "Don't pay attention to these gossip magazines, they are all written in nonsense. Fight for sales!"
"I understand, it's not the first day I met them." Su Yun sighed again, and then regained her spirits, and explained the meaning of the magazine to Bourne who looked confused, "Probably our We acted a little intimate for a while, so those reporters wrote and reported our scandal..."
I'm afraid that Bourne, who looks like a gentle, kind and sunny little angel, but is actually a rebellious and unruly rock and roll boy, will get angry or think too much about it after learning of the media's scribbles. The level is reduced to the most acceptable level.
"Oh, that's it." Bourne nodded, then looked away a little, "I... don't mind."
Alas, to be honest, even she, who wants to mind being ridiculed and the main party involved, can't help these Hong Kong media with rich imagination and creativity.
Then she can only turn grief and anger into strength, just laugh it off, after all, if she gets angry for this to the end, isn't she the one who suffers?
So, after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month in 1981, Su Yun bid farewell to relatives and friends in Xiangjiang, and flew to New York with Zhuang Long and Byrne.
Zhao's owns a lot of property in Chinatown, New York. Su Yun had already prepared the loan report when she was in Xiangjiang, so the staff from Zhao's overseas branch came to pick her up as soon as she got off the plane.
This Chinatown is the largest Chinatown in New York, and its location is close to Broadway Avenue. Therefore, the house that Zhuang Long rents is located in this Chinatown, while Bourne lives a little further outside.
"The rent over there is getting more and more expensive. The environment here is good, and I plan to move here in the future." Before getting into the car, Bourne looked thoughtfully at the red color of Chinatown that hadn't completely faded away. Ocean for a while.
I used to live nearby but never paid attention to it. Occasionally, I would feel that Chinatown is noisy and chaotic with the young neighbors in the rented house. Unexpectedly, after a trip to Xiangjiang this year, he suddenly fell in love with it. It is such a lively festival full of fireworks in the world.
I don't know whether I fell in love with this kind of scenery, or... It's just the person who has something to do with this kind of scenery.
Zhuang Long looked at Bourne's back meaningfully, and then looked at Su Yun who was pulling the suitcase and the grandmother at the fruit stand on the roadside buying oranges, smiled slightly, but did not speak.
After resting for a night, Su Yun knocked on the door of Zhuang Long's room early the next morning.
"It doesn't have to be so early, does it?" Zhuang Long came out half asleep and opened the door. After pulling Su Yun into the room with his hands, he immediately slammed the door hard to keep the winter chill out.
In the warm winter environment of Xiangjiang, Su Yun always likes to sleep late, and often maintains the appearance of a household who has trouble getting up; why does she get up earlier than him when she comes to New York where the temperature is lower and it is more difficult to get up early?
"As the saying goes, it's too early to pay for nothing!" Su Yun babbled at him, and then urged, "Hurry up, brush your teeth, wash your face and change your clothes, we're going to find Glenn Close!"
In "Brewster's Billions", which was adapted into a screenplay, there is a heroine as a financial steward.
Considering that the current levels of Zhuang Long and Byrne could not support the highest budget given to her by the Zhao family, Su Yun decided to find a group with enough weight for some leading actresses to support the stage.
At the end of the count, there are only a few actresses with box office appeal in the 80s: Sally Field, the only Oscar "double crown" in the 80s, will definitely not be invited; Jane Fonda, who had a friendship with Su Yun , but just bought the script of "Golden Pond", which will sweep the Oscar Best Actor Awards next year, and was busy shooting. When Su Yun had a long-distance call with her before, she wanted to invite Su Yun to help with the post-production after the filming. The warm tone of the dusk in "Pounding Heart" is still amazing.
Thinking of this, Jane Fonda spent a lot of money to buy the filming rights in order to improve the long-standing discord with her father Henry Fonda, and also invited legendary actresses like Katharine Hepburn to come For the sake of acting, Su Yun carefully studied the schedule at the end of the year, and after confirming that she could spare a little time, she gave her an affirmative reply.
Counting down, Sigourney Weaver, who established the image of a female warrior with the "Alien" series, and Meryl Streep, who has been working well with Su Yun before.
But it is a pity that the former declined the invitation on the grounds that the image did not match and the latter declined the invitation on the grounds that the schedule did not match; so in the end, only Glenn Close, who is a typical representative of the image of a femme fatale, remained.
It stands to reason that Su Yun is most interested in Meryl: firstly, she has worked with Meryl before, and secondly, her current screen image is mostly positioned as a tough woman from a good family, which fits very well with the financial housekeeper in the movie .
However, the actress with the image of a femme fatale made the audience worry that she would jump back at any time, and in the end, the "reversal" was actually a plot of a good person all the time, and it was not without dramatic tension.
Moreover, Glenn Close has also been acting in plays on Broadway and off-Broadway recently. Zhuang Long finally got in touch with her after going through various relationships.
But Su Yun probably "harvested" too many goodies this year, which hurt her luck. Glenn Close got in touch, and she herself is quite interested in the content of the script—unfortunately, she has already signed an off-Broadway contract. A drama and a comedy movie, there is simply no time to make Su Yun's new movie.
"Then what do you do next?" On the way back, Zhuang Long thought and thought, and finally couldn't help but ask.
"When Ovitz has finished handling the matter at hand, please come and help me. After all, this is the first time I have directed a film of this level." After CAA became bigger, Ovitz was responsible for more and more things. The more time you spend with Su Yun, the less and less time you spend with Su Yun.
Thinking of the past when she first started her business, Su Yun missed her former exclusive agent even more: "Otherwise, we can only find a newcomer with better cost performance, and then think of other ways to increase publicity. "
"I'm sorry." Zhuang Long said in a low voice.
"It's none of your business, it's common to have different schedules, and some people will miss it because of it, and some people will miss it because of it, and in the end, the luck will skyrocket..." Su Yun patted him, "It's just started The period is always difficult, but we must not be discouraged, otherwise luck will really slip away!"
"Okay." Zhuang Long smiled, "I will definitely try my best."
"That's right! During this period of time, if you and Bourne try to figure out the role carefully, then it will mainly depend on you two protagonists!" After Su Yun said goodbye to Zhuang Long at the intersection, she went back to her room and started to play. Called.
After all, he is a good partner. As soon as Ovitz heard Su Yun's call, he immediately accepted her request. He only said that the work at hand could not be dealt with for a while, and he would not be able to come until tomorrow.
After Su Yun thanked him, she went into the small black room of the system to train her various attributes every day. Finally, after taking a shower, she began to slump on the sofa and fiddle with the phone again.
Thinking that Tom was hanging around in New York recently, Su Yun called Tom's house and got his renting address in New York, and planned to go there quietly to surprise him.
Following the address, she walked up to the third floor of the old apartment building. After checking the house number and confirming that it was correct, Su Yun rang the doorbell.
The door was quickly opened from the inside, and a pair of lake-like eyes and brilliant golden long hair suddenly appeared in front of Su Yun: "Who are you?"
With small and delicate facial features and a pointed chin, she looks like a typical blond sweetheart when she smiles, probably because she just came out of the shower, her face is slightly drunken and reddish with water mist, and she is covered by the hair on her shoulders. The white towel used to wipe the hair is lined with a bit of sweetness and freshness...
Su Yun took a step back, looked at the house number, and then at the blond sweetheart in front of her.
The address was correct, but with the same blue-green eyes and the same blond hair, why did the person who opened the door turn out to be a girl?
"Who's outside..." When Su Yun was wondering, Tom, with short half-dry hair, naked upper body, and only a pair of jeans underneath, came out from inside with a hair dryer that was turned off.
"M, Mary?!"
The second he saw the face of the visitor outside the door, he swooped in, pushed away the blond sweetheart who was also puzzled, and grabbed Su Yun's shoulders like a captured husband incoherently: "Mary, you didn't see that!" That... no no no! It's not what you think!"
Su Yun, who was caught by Tom who suddenly exploded like a small universe and shook her whole body, couldn't resist the patience of holding back doubts. When he came and went and couldn't get to the point, she finally raised her hand He pressed his forehead and shouted: "Calm down and listen to my explanation... Bah, I'm calmly waiting for your explanation now!"
It just so happens that she has really become a billionaire recently—although most of them are non-cash assets that are difficult to realize and only rely on conversion estimates, but is there any rich person in the world who really only counts cash?
Isn't it all about adding a little here and there, and even properties with negative equity can be included, and then brag about how much you are worth to others?
It was also for this reason that Su Yun's sudden wealth did not attract too many coveted hearts.
