Chapter 210 Guests of Hong Kong Film and Television Circle
Since the management of the Suez Canal was recovered by Egypt.

The Suez Canal Group has long since become a water company that no longer manages the Suez Canal, but it cannot stand the fact that it has been managed for hundreds of years.

The Suez Canal Group also undertook the dredging work of the canal for nearly 20 years after the subsequent handover with Egypt was clear.

It's just that the Egyptian government has long disliked this "stab in the flesh". Coupled with the recent instability in the Middle East, Egypt took the opportunity to open tenders.

The Sunshine Bank of Panama, which had just contracted the Panama Canal, was favored by Egypt.

3 million US dollars per year, responsible for the dredging of the entire river section. As for patrolling, Egypt is definitely not allowed.

When Prince brought all the work content and invitation letter over, Tao Xi simply asked, "What do I need to pay, what does Leo want to come here for?"

After these two questions were posed by Tao Xi, Prince Shea replied seriously: "Believe me, this time is a matter of free money. The appearance of Leo Vantaa was an accident!"

"When you lie, your thumb is always on your fingernail."

Tao Xi sat on a bench and complained to Prince with disdain.

"Oh! Fxxk! Tao Xi, I need you to help me like before!"

"I want oil! Oil escort! As for who sold the oil to, I don't know, but this is my mission!"

"My grandpa said that you can help me, and this time the operation headquarters gave me 4 people and 100 million dollars in support."

"These people are really screwing me up, and they even call it training me. I'm going to be bored to death!"

Tao Xi saw that Prince had said all the words, and he no longer hesitated.

Old Shay spoke up, he had to do it if he didn't do it, who made Prince his friend?

"Tell me, how much oil, why is it difficult for you to do this?"

Prince Shea threw a newspaper in front of Tao Xi. The front page of the New York Post said that two countries in the Middle East were about to sign a ceasefire agreement.

"I really don't know what you do every day after you bought the New York Post. You don't even know the headlines on the front page of your newspaper."

Tao Xi didn't pay attention to Prince's complaints, but carefully looked at a line of small words marked at the bottom of the newspaper.

[The Persian Gulf is suspected of being mine-thrown by Iran, and 2 frigates have been affected]

"Ready to sign a ceasefire agreement, but there is no ceasefire, right?"

Prince nodded to Tao Xi with a distressed expression: "The disaster broke out on Black Monday, and the price of oil skyrocketed. We received an order to open a new oil transportation road within a week, but who knows what we should do with this road?" Find!"

When Tao Xi heard Prince's answer, he nodded in agreement.

If you give him $100 million, he doesn't know what to do!
Going by land in Kuwait is obviously not feasible. The sea route is still full of torpedoes. The two rich and powerful bigwigs in the Middle East are about to cease fire. The United States doubts them at this time will undoubtedly make things worse.

"Okay, don't worry, I'll think about how to do this."

"It is estimated that these things can only be solved from a commercial point of view."

After saying this, Tao Xi left the room in a hurry, because Tao Xi saw a refracting mirror in the room!

It is a mirror that can see their environment here but not the environment at the other end.

Who knows what trouble he might have if he stayed here.

Peter Lamont is really passionate about filmmaking.

Tao Xi did not come to MGM Studios for a week, and the crew of "Slumdog Millionaire" was established.

Films with an investment of just $200 million are already auditioning for roles.

Sophie Marceau just went to France for filming.

Tao Xi, who was extremely bored, moved an old-fashioned chair from Chinatown and sat at the gate of MGM Studios, watching the beauties coming and going.

Hill, a high-achieving student who had just been admitted to Caltech, went to MGM Studios to become a part-time student.

Hollywood is really the best portrayal of the American economy. Before the stock market crash, agents and directors everywhere in Hollywood were dragged for the same amount of [-] to [-].

Since the stock market crash came, those big shots have been very polite when they saw Tao Xi, who was like a security guard.

"Hello, sir. I'm the manager of CAA. Could you please introduce the crew of that crew?"

Tao Xi lifted his hat and glanced at the agent in front of him, then at the crew of "Millionaire" who just spoke not far away and waved helplessly: "I'm a security guard, and I'm afraid I'll lose my job."

After the agent was rejected, he was not nervous at all, but cheekily handed Tao Xi a cigarette.

Tao Xi took it over and took a look, good guy, old captain!
It was an 8-dollar pack of cigarettes, and Tausi, who smelled the smell, clamped the cigarette to his ear.

"Hey, you won't take my cigarettes and stop doing things for me!"

Tao Xi put the hat on his head again and did not reply, the manager was not angry but squatted in front of Tao Xi and smoked a cigarette.

Shi Nansheng wiped the sweat from his forehead, got out of the car and walked towards Burbank, her favorite place.

The huge Burbank couldn't see his brilliance because of the stock market crash. Except for some advertising studios that were still shooting near the street, she didn't see a single studio.

"This stock market crash is a blow to the whole world!"

Shi Nansheng spoke proficient English to Qi Qiyi, the TVB producer who was on the side.

Qi Qiyi was taken aback when he heard this English sentence, but he quickly realized that the strong woman next to him had also studied in the United States.

"If it weren't for this stock market crash, we wouldn't have come to the United States to find an issuer in person?"

Qi Qiyi's proficient Cantonese made several Americans around him look sideways at him, but Qi Qiyi straightened his hair with a relaxed expression.

Shi Nansheng secretly sighed inwardly.

Ever since the Seven Monsters of the New Art City began to have disputes, her life has not been easy, either dealing with Tsui Hark and others' problems, or on the way to deal with them.

But fortunately, the husband and wife are finally coming to an end, and the financial backer behind Princess Jin is willing to support Tsui Hark in setting up a studio.

He also took out [The True Colors of Heroes 2] for him to write the screenplay, which proves that the couple still has something that others need.

As for Qi Qiyi's going out this time is just to relax, although he and Tsui Hark co-produced "Raptors Crossing the River", the theme of that movie is basically no one in overseas theater companies is willing to buy or share.

"Hello, may I ask where there are more film crews in Hollywood recently?"

A photographer wearing ABC overalls was stopped by Shi Nansheng. The photographer thought that the two of them were here to film, so he pointed behind him: "MGM, Disney, Paramount, as long as it is Hollywood Big companies have studios, and MGM even set up a crew today, if you are lucky, you may be able to interview."

Shi Nansheng thanked the photographer and dragged Qi Qiyi to the MGM studio not far away.

"What? What did that person say?"

"I didn't say anything, let's try movies, maybe we can become Hollywood actors!"

Qi Qiyi laughed when he heard Shi Nansheng's joke: "I'm so good at TVB that I'm also a good producer. I didn't expect someone to ask me to be an actor here!"

Shi Nansheng didn't care about the tone of the TVB veteran, but laughed instead.

Movies in Hong Kong are different from other places.

In other places, it may be the director who has the final say, but in Hong Kong the crew is the producer who has the final say. If you want to be in the entertainment industry in Hong Kong, you can get in even if you don’t have a degree!
But if you can't persist for more than 10 years, you can never get ahead.

The gate of MGM was extremely lively, because just now a CAA agent successfully won a role for an artist he served.

Although the script is not there yet, the person who agreed was Peter Lamont!
All kinds of beautiful girls and screenwriters around are taking chances, but no one goes to the gate of MGM Studios.

Because there was a very disrespectful person who took off his shoes and often spit and smoked.

Anyone with a bit of quality doesn't want to talk to that "security guard"!
I really don't know if the old man Peter Lamont is too old?He is even more powerful than the boss!
Shi Nansheng pointed to the lively scene at the door and said with a smile, "Hahaha, this is the real Hollywood."

Qi Qiyi looked around, although he was very unconvinced, but the cameras randomly piled up on the side of the road not far away were worth his two years' wages at TVB.

"These ghosts are really rich!"

"Okay! We met new friends this time, so don't talk nonsense! Otherwise, the old Lei who went back to Princess Jin asked us, and I don't know how to explain it."

Shi Nansheng tried to appease Qi Qiyi's envy while trying to find someone who was more valuable to her.

Qi Qiyi saw that Shi Nansheng was about to approach the lively crew over there, so he boredly took out a cigarette from the lining of his suit, found a corner where no one was around, and sneaked in.

But Qi Qiyi, who was squatting in the corner, just wanted to light a cigarette, but found that the lighter was gone.

"Brother! Do you have a lighter!"

Qi Qiyi saw that the ghost lying next to him basking in the sun ignored him, and then Qi Qiyi realized that this is the United States.

"Hello!"

"Did you blah blah!"

Qi Qiyi shook Tao Xi, who was basking in the sun, and gestured for a lighter.

"Oh! Here!"

"Thank you."

Qi Qiyi didn't realize it at the first time, but Tao Xi could speak Chinese. He didn't realize it until he lit the cigarette.

"Damn! Chinese people!"

"Fxxk! What are you talking about!"

"Fake foreign devil! Let's smoke one!" Seeing that Tao Xi could only speak a few words, Qi Qiyi was immediately happy. There is no need to know too much between men, and a cigarette is the best bridge of communication.

Tao Xi also smiled when he saw the Hong Kong man beside him.

"Can you speak English?"

"meeting!"

"Where are you from!"

"China Hong Kong!"

"Can't you say a little more? I asked you so much, but you only said so few words?"

Tao Xi was also a little unhappy when he saw Qi Qiyi's expression of staring at his neck, but he just asked this question.

Qi Qiyi was stunned for a long time.

"Good guy! You only know a few English words, and you're still fooling me!"

"You thought you were the manager just now! The artist he served was Jennifer Connelly! You're shit!"

Qi Qiyi saw the yellow-skinned ghost who was talking to him with a smile all the time. Although he couldn't understand, he kept smiling and nodding.

For a while, the two people chatted vigorously.

Shi Nansheng on the other side took a regretful look at the studio named "Millionaire" and left.

MGM Studios didn't have the bad habits of a big company, but the other party politely rejected her request and gave him a [coffee coupon].

Shi Nansheng looked at the coffee coupon in her hand and tried to find a boss from MGM Studios to cooperate with him.

Shi Nansheng, who wandered around the boss, finally found Qi Qiyi, only to find that he was squatting at the gate of MGM Studios, smoking a cigarette, and having a lively chat with someone she knew a little bit.

Shi Nansheng couldn't help but get angry too!

But just as she came to the front, she heard a sentence in English.

"You are such a fool, why are you bragging when you say you don't understand English?"

"Hahahaha, this ghost is really interesting. I scolded you, but you still don't understand, hahahaha."

The two chatted like this for a long time, and when the young man lying on the recliner finished his cigarette, Qi Qiyi would hand him another one.

Shi Nansheng laughed when he saw this scene: "Hello, sir, it's very hard for you to stay with my friend for so long, he can't speak English."

"Oh, I see." Tao Xi saw that there was someone who could speak English, and he immediately lay down on the couch and pretended to be dead.

"Okay, Qi Qiyi, it's time for us to go. I got a coffee coupon inside MGM Studios. I think I can meet some people there."

Hearing Shi Nansheng's words, Qi Qiyi wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth and greeted Tao Xi.

"Hello, sir, do you know how to use this coffee coupon?"

Tao Xi didn't move, Shi Nansheng repeated, Qi Qiyi saw that Tao Xi still didn't respond, he pushed Tao Xi directly: "Hey! Dude, you smoked me 2 cigarettes, what do you know, tell me !"

Seeing Qi Qiyi like this, Shi Nansheng rolled his eyes helplessly.

"It's useless! The current MGM executives have already moved to Building 99. The current Building 1 is an entertainment center. Those people are so busy now that no one goes there."

After Tao Xi finished speaking, he pointed to the white building at the gate and stopped talking.

Shi Nansheng was still a little unwilling to hear Tao Xi's words. After all, she was just a security guard, so she still wanted to try.

As an ordinary agent of CAA Economic Company, Kalim dragged his artist Jennifer Connelly towards the gate of MGM Studios with a panting face.

Who knew that the new boss of MGM Studios would actually have that leisurely person pretending to be a "security guard" at the gate!
If he hadn't glanced at the newspaper when he returned to the company to prepare the materials, he still wouldn't believe that the other party was willing to give Jennifer Connelly a role just because of a cigarette.

You must know that since the original "Once Upon a Time in America", Jennifer Connelly has not invited her to any big production!

Although Jennifer is still young, he is not young anymore!
"Karim, take a break, I'm so tired!"

"Jennifer, don't rest, there are only 100 meters left, I think you should really thank that gentleman!"

Jennifer Connelly was wearing a white dress, and the sweat on her forehead was sticky with sweat, but none of these affected her youth and beauty.
