Chapter 59 Americans brag that they are no worse than others
"Everyone, I would like to tell you some common sense of life when you arrive in the United States. Don't say that if you encounter difficulties, you should not respond every day." When the plane landed in Los Angeles, He Fang gathered everyone outside the exit.

As soon as everyone heard He Fang's words, they immediately listened carefully.

"First, you must be careful when speaking here, especially when facing black and minority people. Maybe you always like to joke with each other in our country, but there are some things that cannot be joked here. For example Saying someone is a 'nigger', including but not limited to nigger, nigga, negro. Nigger and other words, you can't say it, even if you are talking to Asians chatting with each other, you can't say it. In short, you can't say it in any place. Otherwise, the consequences will be very serious. How serious is it? For example, a black man will take out a gun and shoot a few times. This will definitely happen. In addition to some words that cannot be said to black people, there are also words for homosexuality. The attitude is the same, you can't show disrespect, otherwise you will also have guns pointed at you."

When He Fang said this, everyone shuddered.

"Second, don't go out at night here. Guns are legal, gangs are legal, cults are legal, and even the police can pull out guns and shoot you at any time if they think you are dangerous. So, try to go out at night as little as possible. Don’t think that in China, we climb over the fence to have a supper at night. Don’t talk about climbing over the fence here, even if someone finds that you are standing under the fence and intends to climb over, they may pull out their guns and shoot you. Pay attention to those crazy people Crazy people, be careful that the other party pulls out a gun at any time."

"Third, marijuana is everywhere here, and it is semi-legal. So, don't smoke the cigarettes that are handed to you, or try to challenge your tolerance for marijuana. I have encountered many people here. International students take drugs such as marijuana in order to socialize with Americans."

"Fourth, don't try to integrate into the social circle of Americans. They exclude Asians. Of course, you have to lick your face to integrate. It is possible that you will smoke drugs such as marijuana, or even become a They're promiscuously messing with the part of the party, and you have to be prepared."

"Fifth, the eating and living habits here are not as good as you think. Some people will want to build a rice cooker to make rice and stir-fry. Then, I suggest that you better understand it first. Do these things after the school rules and local regulations, otherwise you will be arrested by the police if you are not careful."

"Thousands of words are just one sentence: when it comes to topics such as politics, religion, race, and gender, think as clearly as possible before answering, and don't talk nonsense. Then, what to do, first understand the laws and regulations here, and read the See if you can do it. Finally, pay attention to safety, don’t imagine this side is too good, some situations here will surprise you. Well, everyone, let’s go, let’s go.”

He Fang clapped his hands and led everyone to the parking lot, where a bus sent by the academy came to pick them up.

The driver was a black man. He Fang found the car after calling him.

Everyone boarded the car in an orderly manner. The excitement at the beginning was frightened by He Fang's speech at the airport. Everyone was nervous and scared.

"Everyone, take it easy. Although I told you a few precautions just now, those extreme situations still rarely happen. So, don't be nervous and afraid. Some of you have never been abroad, so you will not be used to the difference at first. It takes time to adapt to the culture and customs of the country, so don’t be afraid to hide and adapt boldly. People here also like people who are good at expressing themselves, rather than being shy and afraid of people.”

In the car, He Fang took the microphone and said a few words to everyone.

Then the car drove towards the north of Los Angeles, and about 30 minutes later they came to Valencia, a small city in California.

Soon, they arrived at the college. The dean of the college, Stephen Bill, led a large group of college leaders to greet them at the school gate, and gave them a welcome speech after they got off the car.

The next step is the handover between He Fang and the college, leading everyone to choose a dormitory to check in, and telling them where the classes are usually held, who the teachers are, where they usually buy things, and who to contact if they have problems.

After settling them down, He Fang went to find Principal Bill and others.

"He, we saw your first movie. It was great. It is considered a qualified theater movie in Hollywood. I didn't expect you to grow so fast in the past few years." He Fang's teacher Rob Epstein praised.

In fact, when He Fang contacted the school, he sent a DVD of "Far Cry" to the school, and even wrote down the performance of this movie in China one by one in the material.

This was what Rob Epstein asked He Fang to do at the time, because he had to prove his strength if he wanted to cooperate with the school. How could the school cooperate without proof?

"Ha, the school taught me well, and it also gave me a chance to follow Mr. Cameron, which gave me the confidence to make movies."

"Okay, He. You have won honor for the school. If you make a few more films with international influence, we will apply to the board of directors and add you to the school's Hall of Fame. Come on, He." Dean Stephen ·Bill paints cakes for He Fang.

In fact, which school would be stingy with the promotion of their outstanding students?They can't wait to be in the hall of honor immediately, so that they can expand the influence of their school and help recruit students.

"Ha, thank you Mr. Bill, I'm preparing to shoot a film for Cannes, hoping to get something."

"Really? That would be great. Want to go to the Oscars?" Bill asked.

"Oh, can you?" He Fang said unexpectedly.

"Of course, only if you get an award or a nomination at Cannes."

For CalArts, they are happy to help students win higher awards, which will only bring greater honor to the school.

In fact, many universities in the United States are supported by celebrity students. These celebrity students not only add aura to the school but also donate money every year.

So this is a great thing for the school, so they will not be stingy with their resources to help a little bit.

"Ha, okay, I'll try my best."

……

In the evening, the school held a welcome dinner party for the advanced students from China, and all the students were invited to participate, as well as some Chinese and Asian international students, as well as the school's student union staff and some outstanding representatives.

There were three to four hundred people in the whole party, which seemed very grand.

Bill even praised He Fang in his speech before the party started, almost saying that He Fang is the future star of the academy and the strongest newcomer in the film industry.

He even talked about He Fang's plan to shoot for the Cannes awards. He Fang is not embarrassed, after all, bragging is not a patent of a certain country.Come to the United States to see, the bragging here is not ambiguous at all.

He also said that He Fang's new movie "Far Cry" will be shown at the end of the party for everyone to enjoy.

In the applause of everyone, He Fang was also invited to the stage to speak a few words of encouragement to the students. He also hoped that everyone would study hard, and of course he would not forget to recruit talents for himself. He hoped that students who wanted to develop in China could find him. Offer favorable conditions. After all, there are more than one billion Chinese people, and the future movie market has a bright future...

This remark moved some students' hearts, and they even asked on the spot about their salary, what they should pay attention to when they go to China, and so on.

He Fang was also surprised, he didn't expect to be really moved.

This is a good thing. If there is, it will be brought back to China together with this batch of 35 advanced students.

The speech is over, the food is over, and the movie begins.

After the movie ended, the audience burst into applause. In their opinion, this is a particularly excellent movie.

After the whole welcome party ended, everyone started chatting in twos and threes, and He Fang undoubtedly became the center.

 Double the monthly ticket at the end of the month, ask for a monthly ticket!Thank you old guys.
