Chapter 708 Chapter 707, Excited Hollywood Star

“The Four Seasons Hotel Beverly Hills is located north of Los Angeles International Airport, a 30-minute drive from the airport.

The hotel is within easy walking distance of Beverly Hills and Rodeo Drive, and only 5 minutes from Hollywood Boulevard.”

“The hotel room has a bit of French flavor. Standing in the room, you can see the garden, Hollywood Hills, and Beverly Hills. It’s very beautiful!”

“The service at the Four Seasons was excellent, the food was very good, the room service was prompt and very clean, and the check in was professional and friendly.”

“Rodeo Drive is very convenient for shopping, and you can also go for a walk in the nearby parks and hills. The Four Seasons Hotel has professional Pilates and yoga classes, a library, a gym, a spa, an outdoor swimming pool, and more.”

The taxi driver was very chatty.

When Fan Jiuyi said that she would stay at the Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly Hills tonight, the bearded man began to introduce herself nonstop.

In fact, Fan Jiuyi wanted to tell him, why don’t you speak slower? My English is not that good. It’s okay if you speak slowly, but you are speaking so fast now that I basically can’t understand what you are saying.

Fortunately, taxis are also very fast.

Just as Fan Jiuyi was struggling over whether she should remind the driver to slow down his speech, the taxi stopped in front of a luxury hotel.

After getting off the car and taking down the luggage, Fan Jiuyi paid the fare and was about to push the suitcase towards the hotel lobby. At this time, the bearded driver stopped her.

"Tip, tip. I have introduced so many things to you along the way. You should give me a tip."

It was the same old problem. This guy yelled too fast and Fan Jiuyi couldn't understand.

"Can you speak more slowly?"

"No, I have to get my tip."

The bearded driver became more and more excited as he spoke. While speaking, he even wanted to push the door and get out of the car, and then punch Fan Jiuyi.

"Here, this is a $100 tip."

At this critical moment, a man in a suit with a bag under his arm took out a hundred-dollar bill and handed it to the bearded man.

Seeing the money, the bearded driver was overjoyed. He said good and drove away in the taxi.

Oh…

Seeing this scene, Fan Jiuyi finally remembered the intensive training her godmother had given her before she came:

Bingbing, in the United States, service staff's income mainly depends on tips. Over there, you should bring more change with you.

Thinking of this, Fan Jiuyi took out her wallet again and wanted to return the money to the man who helped her out of the predicament, but when Fan Jiuyi took out the money, she found that there was no one around her.

...

It's really nice to meet Chinese people abroad. They help you quietly and don't seem to ask for anything in return.

But I remember that I seemed to have seen him somewhere, and it seemed that the man had a bit of personality. No matter where he went, he looked like a paid electrician.

Recalling the scene just now, Fan Jiuyi smiled brightly, shook her head, put away her wallet, and pushed her luggage towards the hotel.

The tasks these days seem a bit heavy.

She wants to have a very special love affair with Jiang Feng, and while in love, she wants to achieve her goal inadvertently.

Following Jiang Feng, he appeared on the red carpet of the 60th Golden Globe Awards for American Film and Television!
You know, this is Hollywood, a place many domestic female stars have always wanted to come here but never had the chance.

In the past, Fan Jiuyi’s ambitions were not so big. Jiang Feng’s level was much higher than hers, and it seemed out of reach for her to go to Hollywood and walk the red carpet with him.

But when Fan Jiuyi heard from her godmother that Li Lianhua, who had starred in the movie "Departures", would have the opportunity to walk the red carpet in Hollywood, she immediately had an idea.

Compared to Li Lianhua, who is 8 years older than me, what am I inferior to? !

In terms of beauty, I beat her in seconds; in terms of age, I am younger than her; in terms of acting, I am more perceptive than her...

Li Lianhua only relies on the fact that she has a good sister; but the relationship between Jiang Feng and I is still negative distance? !

Just like that, Fan Jiuyi walked into the hotel lobby while thinking about random things. Under the guidance of the doorman, she came to the hotel front desk. Just as she was about to ask about the room in stiff English, Fan Jiuyi heard someone calling her.

"Miss Fan, are you coming?"

Looking around, she saw that it was Huo Wenxi, the famous agent of Yinghuang Entertainment Company. Fan Jiuyi smiled sweetly and said, "Hello, Miss Huo!"

"Well, hello, Miss Fan." Huo Wenxi walked here quickly and held Fan Jiuyi's hand.

"You came here on the same flight as Director Jiang Feng, right?"

"That's right!"

"Where is Director Jiang Feng? Did he go home? Well, if he went home, can you tell me where Director Jiang Feng's house in Los Angeles is located?
Tingfeng had the opportunity to walk the red carpet in Hollywood this time, thanks to Director Jiang Feng, I wanted to go to his house to thank him. "Huo Wenxi glanced behind Fan Jiuyi and asked with a smile.

"I'm sorry, Miss Huo, I'm not sure whether Brother Feng has returned home or not, because as soon as we came out of the terminal, he was picked up by Hollywood actress Charlize Theron." Fan Jiuyi said.

.........

Jiang Feng was picked up by Charlize Theron.

Although there was a small incident on the way, the two still arrived at Charlize Theron's villa in Beverly Hills at 9 o'clock in the evening.

This Mediterranean-style duplex two-story villa covers an area of ​​295 square meters and has 6 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms. The house retains the architectural elements of the 1930s, with a wall of windows overlooking the sea and a spacious deck courtyard with a spa and a characteristic fire pit.

The living room is cozy and interesting, the dining room is uniquely decorated, the bedroom is warm and comfortable, and the bathroom has a shower and white counters…

Arriving at Charlize Theron's house, Jiang Feng, who had just gotten off the car, was touring the house. Charlize Theron, who had already taken off her heavy cotton coat, took out two cans of beer from the refrigerator, threw one to Jiang Feng, then opened the other, took two sips, and said:
“This house is worth $715 million, and the formalities were completed in October 02.

Come to think of it, it’s all thanks to you. If it weren’t for The Departed, I probably wouldn’t be able to afford this house.”

When talking about this, Charlize Theron suddenly paused and smiled in a low voice:

"Jiang, do you know how much money I made from the movie 'The Departed'?"

"How much?" Jiang Feng asked.

As a director, as a director with absolute power, Jiang Feng knows exactly how much each actor in the crew gets paid.

But now, Jiang Feng would rather pretend to be confused.

Because making a woman happy is important, the joy she feels when the words come out of her mouth is hard to describe.

Sure enough, at this moment, Charlize Theron actually jumped up excitedly.

"Jiang, do you know?
I am now in Hollywood and have officially become a top-tier actress.

There is a rigid standard in Hollywood: the pay for a first-line male actor is 1000 million US dollars per film; the pay for a super first-line male actor is 2000 million US dollars per film; and the pay for a first-line female actress is 800 million US dollars per film, and the pay for a super first-line female actress is 1500 million US dollars per film. I, I..."

Charlize Theron held a beer in her right hand and pointed her left hand at her nose.

"My salary and bonus for The Departed totaled $1850 million.

Now, my agent is negotiating a performance contract for me, and the starting price is basically 1500 million US dollars..."

Charlize Theron, who was drinking, became more and more excited as she spoke, and from time to time she described her grand blueprint in front of Jiang Feng: what I want to do, what I want to do, which famous director's directing style I like, and I want to work with him next.

Looking at Charlize Theron, Jiang Feng sighed.

I didn’t know it before, but now I know it.

In China, Chow Yun Fat is praised as a superstar from Hollywood, but he is not even a first-rate superstar in Hollywood, because with his salary of 400 million US dollars, he can only be regarded as a second-rate Chinese actor.

In China, Jet Li, who is promoted to great heights during publicity, can only be called a top Hollywood actor because Kung Fu stars are scarce here. What kind of Kung Fu superstar is that?
Haha, not really.

Compared with the above two, Qing Long's situation seems to be better. In Hollywood, his highest film salary was 2200 million US dollars, which included box office share.

In addition, in China, especially in the mainland, Ying Long has a better reputation than the above two. When Ying Long signs contracts with Hong Kong crews or mainland crews, he never discusses cooperation by using his status as a Hollywood star.

Just as he was thinking about it, Charlize Theron, who was standing barefoot on the carpet, came over with a ruddy face, raised the beer can in her hand and clinked it with the beer can in Jiang Feng's hand, and said: "Jiang, now, basically all the film companies in Hollywood are waiting for your next filming plan.

They all want to wait for your script to come out and then take a piece of the pie.

Well, I don’t know, what kind of subject do you want to make in your next Hollywood movie?”

"not sure yet."

Jiang Feng smiled, raised the beer can in his hand, clinked glasses with Charlize Theron, and then drank it all in one gulp.

"Uh..., what does unsure mean?" asked Charlize Theron.

“My movie script has been written, but I’m not sure if I can get some of the copyrights involved in the movie script.

And I came from China this time, in addition to attending the Golden Globe Awards ceremony, basically to discuss this matter. "Jiang Feng explained with a smile.

"Well, can you tell me in detail? I'll see if I can help you. You know, ever since I starred in your movie 'The Departed' and it became a hit, my connections in Hollywood have been further enhanced." Charlize Theron puffed out her chest, sharing the worries with her partner. She believed that she could still do this little thing.

"Well, let's put it this way. You take a look at the script first. If you are interested, I will talk to you about how to do this."

Having said that, Jiang Feng took out a laptop from his bag, then opened one of the unencrypted folders and let Charlize Theron browse it.

Jiang Feng took a towel and some clean clothes and went to one of the bathrooms in Charlize Theron's house.

Although I haven't had dinner yet, the most important thing now is to take a shower. I've been on the plane for more than 12 hours, and then spent more than minutes with Charlize Theron on the way back. My body already smells bad, so I have to take a shower as soon as possible.

Looking at Jiang Feng's back as he went to the bathroom, to be honest, Charlize Theron was a little moved.

What does this amount to?
Jiang Feng let me see his computer without reservation, which was equivalent to James Cameron or Steven Spielberg letting me browse their work logs at will.

Slightly touched, Charlize Theron shook her head and focused her attention on the laptop screen.

【Story Introduction:
Congested road
A truck suddenly accelerated

I started to rush forward regardless of anything

People at this time did not realize the danger
Get off the car to check the situation

His personality changed drastically

Started to attack the people around him like crazy
Pique finally realized

The virus broke out

Just a few minutes

The city was in complete chaos.

To survive
Pique fled with his family in a car
As a retired member of the United Nations
Someone contacted him soon.

The seriousness of the matter was far beyond their imagination.

More than a dozen cities have fallen.

They have to reach the top of the designated building within an hour.

A helicopter will pick you up.

My daughter suffers from asthma

Pique hurried to the pharmacy to look for medicine
But they are not the only ones who need medicine

In order to grab the drugs...】

To be honest, Charlize Theron was fascinated. She was fascinated just by reading the story synopsis of "World War Z".

With her brain power, she had never imagined that a zombie horror movie would have such a grand scale, with the earth destroyed and the world turned into zombies, and even the great city of Tongling in the United States would not be spared.

However, Charlize Theron was a little worried as she watched more and more frightened. Such a grand scene would require many computer special effects to be produced. The production cost should not be cheap, right? !
Maybe she was thinking too deeply, so she didn't hear the phone next to the table ringing several times.

Later, Jiang Feng, who had just finished taking a shower, gave a few reminders.

"Charlize, why didn't you answer the phone?"

"Oh, is it so?"

Charlize Theron picked up the phone and looked at it. Seeing that it was her good friends Leonardo Dicaprio and Matt Damon calling, she immediately called Matt Damon back.

When they were filming the movie "The Departed" together, the five of them had already become good friends. Even after Jiang Feng returned to China, Charlize Theron still often got together with Leonardo Dicaprio, Matt Damon, and George Clooney.

Now seeing the call from them, they must be asking whether Jiang Feng has come to the United States.

Sure enough, as soon as the call was connected, Matt Damon's loud voice came from the receiver.

"Charlize Theron, I want to ask you something. Has Jiang Feng come from China? I am at the Four Seasons Hotel with Leonardo Dicaprio right now. I just checked and there is no record of him staying there..."

However, before Matt Damon finished speaking, an extremely excited Charlize Theron yelled into the phone: "Leonardo, Matt Damon, you two listen to me, tomorrow, tomorrow you must arrange a cocktail party to welcome Director Jiang Feng, otherwise you will regret it for the rest of your life!
Well, that’s all I have to say. I’m hanging up now.”

Charlize Theron turned off her phone immediately after she finished speaking, then stood up, took a wet towel from the table and wiped her mouth, then ran towards Jiang Feng with her long legs, and said in her stuttering Chinese:
"Brother Feng, come here, let me take good care of my little slave."
