Meizong Wealth Life

Chapter 110 The opening game on the field, the vanity fair off the field

The next day, Chen Jinfei hired a car to take Liu Yifei and her daughter to CAA.

He said he wanted to support his goddaughter, so he rented a stretch Lincoln, but along the way, Chen Jinfei kept telling his goddaughter about the domestic TV series.

"The starring role is Chen Kun, a popular young boy in China. The female lead was originally cast by Zhou Xun, but later it was changed to Dong Jie, the girl who is seeking a job. In fact, the producer told me privately, Sissi, you are just too young, otherwise the female lead would be It’s up to you.”

14-year-old Liu Yifei sat obediently in her seat, and her mother Liu Xiaoli sat beside her as usual, holding her daughter in her arms like a baby.

"Sissi, your godfather invested a lot of money into the crew to get you that role. Why don't you thank him quickly?"

Liu Yifei was about to speak when she was stopped by Chen Jinfei.

"Xiao Li, if you ask Sissi to say thank you to me, don't you treat me like an outsider? I know you have a good idea, okay, then I won't persuade you."

Liu Xiaoli knew that Chen Jinfei had put a lot of thought into her and her daughter over the years, and she felt a little sorry.

"Jin Fei, I know you are doing this for Sissi's best. The main reason is that this opportunity is really rare. Think about it, if Sissi has the opportunity to star in Cheng Long's movie this time, will the starting point for her future entry into the entertainment industry be different? Are others much taller?"

"If the audition was just a formality and Sissi was chosen to play this role, of course I would have nothing to say. But now the other party is just optimistic about Sissi and recommends her to participate in the audition. I always feel that the other party is casting a wide net to catch fish. "

Liu Xiaoli's attitude is very clear.

If you have this opportunity, you must give it a try.

At the same time, she also hoped that Chen Jinfei could find a way to retain the role in the domestic TV series and wait until the auditions were over before giving a reply.

Chen Jinfei smiled bitterly and said that this matter was not easy to handle, but he still agreed to give it a try.

After arriving at CAA and explaining their intentions at the front desk, Liu Yifei, Liu Xiaoli, and Chen Jinfei were soon led to Tommy's office.

"Very welcome!"

Tommy stood up from behind his desk and greeted the three guests in his broken Chinese.

"Do you want tea or coffee?"

Liu Xiaoli made the decision for her daughter and Chen Jinfei and chose coffee.

Tommy had a look of regret on his face.

"I thought you Chinese people preferred to drink tea. Last time Cheng Long gave me a box of fine tea, but I never had a chance to use it to entertain guests."

Liu Xiaoli and Chen Jinfei looked at each other, thinking that this foreigner knew a lot.

"We like to drink tea at home, and when abroad we follow the local customs and drink coffee with everyone." Chen Jinfei took the initiative to explain:
Tommy checked Liu Xiaoli's information and knew that she was currently divorced, so he couldn't help but look at Chen Jinfei curiously.

"What is the relationship between this gentleman and Ms. Liu?"

"I am Sissi's godfather."

It turned out to be the case.

Tommy nodded, then looked at Liu Xiaoli and Chen Jinfei seriously and said:
"I already told Ms. Liu about the general situation on the phone last night, so have you thought about it clearly now?"

Liu Xiaoli was about to speak when Chen Jinfei spoke first:
"Mr. Wood, is it true that you said that Cheng Long is planning to audition the heroine for his new movie around the world? Why is there no news at all in the media?"

Tommy smiled and replied:
"It's right that there is no news, because this is a project that is still kept secret internally. Once it is announced, it will definitely shock Hollywood!"

Chen Jinfei was naturally unwilling to be unable to find out more inside information.

"Mr. Wood, since it is a global audition, does that mean that even if my goddaughter does not sign a contract with CAA, she can still sign up for the audition?"

Tommy nodded, acknowledging this.

But he immediately said:

"Before signing the contract, I cannot make any promises to the two of you, but I can responsibly say that as long as we become a client of CAA, we will find a way to increase the probability of Ms. Liu being selected to more than 80%."

If anyone else had said this, Liu Xiaoli might still be a little suspicious.

But Tommy is Cheng Long's manager, and there is a photo with Cheng Long on his desk, so his words are still very credible.

Besides, the probability of 80% is already very high.

When Liu Xiaoli saw this, she no longer hesitated. After seeing the contract provided by Tommy, she finally signed the contract for her daughter as a guardian.

Since then, Liu Yifei has officially become a CAA artist.

After putting away the contract, Tommy took out two NBA tickets and explained to Chen Jinfei apologetically:
"I didn't know that Miss Liu had a godfather, so I only got two tickets."

Liu Xiaoli and Chen Jinfei were both a little confused.

What is this, a meeting gift?

But what’s the point of giving away two NBA tickets?

Seeing the doubts on their faces, Tommy immediately explained: "These two tickets are the key to helping Ms. Liu be selected."

He then gave the two of them a brief introduction to the NBA's opening game, and without spending too much time, he mentioned that this was Jordan's first game back and a focus game that would be watched by the entire United States.

Seeing that Liu Xiaoli and Chen Jinfei were still confused, Tommy further explained:

"Cheng Long will also go to this game. His ticket was given by the owner of the Bulls. His location is very good, right in the first row on the sidelines."

At this time, Chen Jinfei came to his senses.

"So the tickets for these two games are very close to Cheng Long's seat, right?"

Tommy just shook his head.

"Mr. Chen may not know how popular the tickets for this game are. Currently, the price of second-hand tickets has been increased to more than 20 times the original price. I only got these two tickets through some special relationships. Even so, They are also separated from Cheng Long's seats by a stadium, and their specific location is in the middle of the stands directly opposite Cheng Long."

Chen Jinfei and Liu Xiaoli understood immediately.

This is to let Cheng Long accidentally see Liu Yifei while watching NBA games.

After all, such a beautiful Chinese girl would indeed stand out in a stand filled with white and black spectators.

It's just that Chen Jinfei doesn't understand something.

Since Tommy is Cheng Long's agent, wouldn't it be enough to just recommend Liu Yifei to Cheng Long?
Why do you still do this unnecessary thing of taking off your pants and farting?

Tommy was very happy that Chen Jinfei could ask this question, and this was also the question he planned to explain to the two of them next.

"You two misunderstood. I got these two tickets not so that Ms. Liu could attract Cheng Long's attention, but to attract the attention of the person sitting next to Cheng Long during that game."

Before Chen Jinfei and Liu Xiaoli could ask who that person was, Tommy turned his attention directly to Liu Yifei, who was sitting quietly on the sofa behind him without saying a word. "Does Miss Liu like to read novels and cartoons?"

Liu Yifei didn't expect that the topic would suddenly come to her. She was stunned and shook her head.

Liu Xiaoli immediately added:
"Mr. Wood, it's like this. My daughter is usually busy with schoolwork and dance practice, so she has relatively less time for entertainment."

Tommy nodded to express his understanding, then picked up the phone on the table and informed his assistant to buy a copy of the "Percy Jackson" novel and a set of CDs of "The Adventures of Cheng Long".

After putting down the phone, Tommy explained to Liu Xiaoli and Chen Jinfei:

"I think you two must have guessed something. Yes, the new movie I mentioned on the phone before is the live-action version of "The Adventures of Cheng Long". However, the person who really calls the shots on this project is not Cheng Long. , but the author of "Percy Jackson", the 17-year-old genius boy and the best-selling novel author in the United States, Jamie Dutton."

"By the way, he is also the son of the owner of the Bulls. In the game on October 10, he was the person sitting next to Cheng Long."

"Ms. Liu only has to do one thing in the next few days, which is to watch "Percy Jackson" and go to Jamie Dutton for an autograph after the game. As for the "The Adventures of Cheng Long" animation You can take a look if you have time."

"The role of this global audition is Xiaoyu, the niece of the animated Miley Dragon. As long as you know this, don't try too hard to imitate Xiaoyu in the cartoon on the day of the Bulls game, because the opponent will see it."

In order to fulfill Ovitz's instructions and create the illusion that Jamie accidentally discovered Liu Yifei, Tommy worked hard.

Of course, he would definitely not tell Liu Xiaoli and the others this.

At the same time that Tommy met Liu Yifei, mother and daughter, Ovitz also found Sony executives.

As he expected, Sony executives also acknowledged his old relationship with helping to acquire Columbia, so when he proposed to purchase "The Adventures of Cheng Long" and Dragon Treasure Studio, the matter met with little resistance. It passed.

However, Sony executives never dreamed that as soon as they sold "The Adventures of Cheng Long" and Dragon Treasure Studio to Ovitz, Ovitz would sign an agreement with Jamie's lawyer to sell "The Adventures of Cheng Long" to Ovitz. Helongzhibao Studio was resold to Jamie at the original price.

After doing this, Ovitz immediately found the actors selected by Jamie, Jason Statham, Dwayne Johnson, and Jason Momoa, and persuaded them to sign a contract with their agents. 15-year contract.

By the time Ovitz had secured all the actors, it was late October.

The much-anticipated NBA regular season opener is about to begin at the United Center in Chicago.

New York, Brooklyn.

Caroline and Max stayed in front of the TV early, waiting to watch the game broadcast.

Both women received game tickets as gifts from Jamie, but Caroline didn't want to go there for some reason, so she returned the tickets to Jamie.

Max originally planned to go to watch the game live, and even booked a flight ticket, but in the end he gave up this opportunity because of Caroline.

She gave the ticket to Li Han.

Then just a few minutes ago, Max received a call from Li Han. He had already entered the arena and asked Max if he had seen him on the TV broadcast.

Max directly ridiculed Li Han, saying that if he wants to be on TV, he needs to grow at least 50 centimeters taller.

Li Han had long been accustomed to Max's venomous tongue, and excitedly told Max about the Hollywood superstars and NBA stars he had seen at the scene.

The current stars are all preparing for the regular season and it is impossible to come and join in the fun.

There were retired NBA superstars like Magic Johnson and Bird.

Coupled with a group of NBA executives and the owners of several teams, Jordan has been given enough cards.

The most unexpected thing is that Kung Fu superstar Cheng Long also came to the game and had a friendly interaction with Jordan and other Bulls players who were warming up on the court.

When he saw Cheng Long appear, Li Han was so excited that he yelled on the phone, causing Max to hold the phone away from his ears.

Needless to say, Li Han had already seen Cheng Long on the TV broadcast.

During this period, Jamie and Serena, who were sitting on the sidelines, were also captured by the TV broadcast cameras. At the same time, Caroline also saw many acquaintances in the second and third rows of seats behind them.

Chuck, Nate, Dan, Rufus, Jenny, Rebecca, and Poppy and Ellie, whom Caroline didn't know very well.

This only appeared in the broadcast footage.

Off-camera are the Tausi family and eldest Michael, as well as the five Kardashian sisters.

Blair, the Duke's son, and the Duchess also came to the scene, but they were sitting in the stands on the other side of the stadium.

Seeing that the game was about to start, Max was thinking about what reasons to hang up Li Han. Unexpectedly, someone at the scene helped her.

Li Han told Max on the phone that there was a Chinese mother and daughter sitting next to him. Then the girl's godfather did not buy a ticket for the seat next to the mother and daughter, so he offered to exchange with Li Han.

They all mistakenly thought that Li Han was of Chinese descent. After some exchanges, they found out that Li Han was of Korean descent. However, Li Han still agreed to the other party's request to change seats, so he had to hang up.

United Center Arena.

Chen Jinfei clasped his hands together and thanked Li Han who agreed to change seats with him.

Before sitting down, Chen Jinfei took out a digital camera and asked a white man in the front row to take a photo of him, Liu Yifei and his daughter.

The scene of the three standing up to take pictures happened to be seen by Cheng Long opposite.

He had just finished communicating with John, who was sitting on his left, and turned around to talk to Jamie, who was sitting on the other side, when he saw a very beautiful Chinese girl in the stands opposite.

At this time, Cheng Long didn't know that this was the arrangement of his agent Tommy. He was stunned for a moment and then turned around and told Jamie his discovery.

"What do you think of the girl over there?"

Jamie had already learned about Tommy's arrangement from Ovitz in advance, but he didn't expect Cheng Long to be "in the urn" so quickly.

Because it was not easy to stare at the opposite side all the time, Jamie looked away after just one glance.

At the same time, I couldn’t help but sigh.

Liu Tianxian is so young at this time!
"The age seems to be just right. I think we can select people according to this standard during global auditions."

Cheng Long joked with Jamie on the spot that if we really select people according to this standard, it is estimated that not many people will be shortlisted in the end.

Even in the era of beauty in Hong Kong, this girl's appearance would definitely make people's eyes shine.

The key is that the other party's mother is also very beautiful, and her appearance and temperament are not inferior to those of celebrities.

On the contrary, the man next to him was very ordinary. At a glance, he knew that he was not the girl's biological father, because the two looked nothing alike.

After such a comparison, Cheng Long found this girl more pleasing to his eyes.

　I have to continue asking for leave, and there is only one more update.
