"Ronnie, Mr. Bannon took me to visit all the securities firms, brokers, and investment companies on Wall Street." Donna called Ronald in the evening, and her voice sounded very excited on the phone.

"Have you decided? Which company will you choose for your internship?" Ronald motioned to the little man opposite to stop first, picked up the phone and chatted with Donna first.

"I will go to Goldman Sachs first, and then go to Morgan Stanley. After that, I will go to brokerages and investment funds. But I just came back from Renaissance Company in Long Island, and I had a very speculative chat with the founder, Mr. Simons. I

I think his investment philosophy is the most interesting.

However, Mr. Bannon said that when investing, you still need to understand different companies and investment styles, and only by comparing can you find your own strengths."

"Ah, that's very good. Mr. Bannon's arrangements are very appropriate. You must ask him for advice..."

I chatted with Donna about his work arrangements for a while. It is a very happy thing to be able to apply what I have learned and find a job that interests me when I graduate from college.

The investment company that Donna found has a very strange name, "Renaissance Technology Company". Their founder, Simons, is a mathematician. When investing, he also uses formulas to hedge bets instead of using gossip.

, or analyze a company's financial statements.

"Please continue, Detective McPike."

Ronald hung up the phone, and sitting opposite him was Frank McPike, the detective he had used in New York. He was wearing a pair of small round glasses, and his eyes were shrewd. His hair was thicker than last time.

When Nader saw him, he was bald again and simply shaved his hair short instead of combing the surrounding hair into the center.

"James Simons founded this Renaissance Technology in 1982. He once won the American Mathematical Society's highest award, Olympus, for the Chern-Simons form, a mathematical expression form of differential geometry, discovered in collaboration with Chinese mathematicians.

Swald Veblen Prize.

This mathematical form has good applications in the most cutting-edge physics fields, such as gauge field theory and Yang Mills theory. However, James Simons feels that his mathematical talent is much different than that of his partner Chen Shengshen.

It is difficult to win the Fields Medal and leave a name in the history of mathematics.

So he left academia and began to get involved in the investment field. He is a graduate of MIT and teaches at his alma mater and universities such as Harvard and Stony Brook. Therefore, many Ivy League school boards use the money from the school fund to invest part of it.

his fund.

He also stayed away from the hustle and bustle of Wall Street and concentrated on using mathematics and physics equations to make investments on Long Island. Most of the researchers he recruited were top students majoring in mathematics and physics."

Frank McPike spread out the investigation materials he had written and talked to Ronald about the key points. If his cousin went to this company, he should be able to perform and not be afraid of falling into the fast lane of Wall Street in Manhattan where he had to pay the price.

"Very well, thank you, Detective Frank McPike. Just stick to the old rules." Ronald handed over a large envelope.

Frank McPike picked it up, weighed it, and put it in his bag. "Still the old rules, we have never met, there is only one copy of the materials, please remember to destroy it. To be honest, I appreciate your protection of your family, so in advance

If you do your research well, there won't be any problems."

Ronald stood up and sent him out, and his agent Niceta and Daydream's general manager Eddie walked in from the outside of Daydream's chairman's office.

"Has it been dealt with?"

"Yes, okay, I can go to Cannes with peace of mind."

The two people closest to Ronald in his career knew that Ronald had to deal with his family's privacy, so they waited outside to see him finish before coming in.

"As for the Dirty Dancing soundtrack, the production factory in Columbia has agreed to start work for us first and produce 100,000 copies."

Eddie first reported on the production of the record.

"Mr. Dario is very helpful." Ronald looked at the progress report.

"Yes, if he hadn't found an opportunity to speak in front of MJ, we don't know how long we would have waited."

Columbia Records, the largest factory in New Jersey, has not started operations during this period, waiting for the final completion of MJ's new record.

Michael Jackson is now the most powerful money-making machine in the recording industry, and all resources must revolve around him.

The best lyrics, compositions, arrangers, harmonies, and backup dancers are all occupied by him. As soon as he makes the last small detail modification on the music, it can be recorded in the best recording studio immediately.

You don't know when this greatest genius will burst out with inspiration. The best way is for everyone to stay idle and wait for him.

As the new record has not yet been finalized, the factory is running idle to ensure that MJ can start production at full power immediately after the final completion.

Only MJ himself knows how far he is from that perfect state.

His manager, Dario, was one of the few people who could communicate with him about record production. After asking for Ronald, MJ said that he could let the factory record Ronald's new film first this week.

With the King of Pop's guarantee, Ronald's new film "Dirty Dancing" can at least stock up on a batch of goods before filming starts, and then adjust it according to the sales speed.

"The copy of Dirty Dancing has been sent to Paris in advance. Richard will go ahead and give you a preview. When you get there, just ask the Cannon people to help you determine the date and time for the premiere. Richard will do the rest.

I'll help you with it." Niceta handed Ronald a first-class ticket.

"The distribution manager of Daydream, Michelle Cannold, has also flown to China with his assistant. After the premiere is successful, we can try to see if we can find a buyer willing to buy it in Europe." Eddie

He also handed Ronald the contact information of the hotel where Michelle Cannold was staying.

"Ha, thank you. I feel you have taken such good care of me."

Ronald got up and left. Some of the details in Los Angeles had been taken care of. For other things, Niceta and Eddie could handle them. If they needed to decide, they could also use telegraphs and long-distance calls.

It’s time to attend the 40th Cannes Film Festival with Minahan Golan.

"Bud, let's go." When he got home, little Bud had already packed his luggage and was waiting for him. His girlfriend Lucy had come to Los Angeles and lived with him in a small apartment five minutes' walk away.

"Lucy, long time no see." Ronald hugged Little Bud's fiancée. She is now looking for a job as a receptionist. She is doing well in a computer company, has a fixed income, and can get off work on time.

"I carefully put your dresses and formal clothes into the big suitcase. When you register, you only need to take this suitcase with you." Lucy studied secretarial majors, and she took care of Ronald's luggage herself.

.

"Thank you, Lucy Bard, let's go."

…

"Ronald, Gaga...you're here, I've been waiting for you for a long time."

Minahan Golan wore a tacky blue sportswear, sweatpants, and sneakers, and waited for Ronald at the airport.

Ronald hugged him, then took out his sunglasses from his pocket and put them on. He was wearing an Armani navy blue jacket and light gray trousers. He stood with Minahan, which was as contrary as possible.

and.

"Where's Yoram?" Ronald turned his head and didn't see his cousin Yoram, who was inseparable from him.

"He went to Paris first, where we still have a new theater ribbon-cutting ceremony to be held, so he went over to get busy. I'm waiting for you to go with me."

"Oh, okay", Ronald found the registration counter together with an Israeli guy dressed like a fruit seller.

The two asked for seats together and started chatting on the plane.

"This time, we have a great momentum in Cannes, and several films are doing large-scale promotion activities there."

"Is it the fourth Superman movie, or is it Masters of the Universe?" Ronald knew that Minahan had been talking about the two science fiction masterpieces.

The former one is the latest sequel to Superman. Clark Kent's opponent this time is all the nuclear weapons in the world. The latter one is an adaptation of the famous cartoon "He-Man", although it has not been authorized by He-Man.

But the stories are very similar at first glance.

"Quack..." Minahan ordered a glass of red wine and drank it to hide his embarrassment. "The post-production of the special effects took longer than expected, so we won't premiere it in Cannes this time."

Ronald glanced at him suspiciously. Minahan's behavior today was a bit abnormal. He used to talk endlessly about his movie ideas whenever he saw him. But today he seemed to be particularly quiet. Even when he asked him, he only responded lightly.

After chatting for a few words, we returned to the grand occasion of this year’s Cannes Film Festival.

"This year marks the 40th anniversary of Cannes. The Chinese government and the organizing committee intend to expand its influence and also award a Lifetime Achievement Award to the British actor Sir Alec Guinness. There is also a special award for the Chinese director who unfortunately passed away.

Rufe, this time I also want to present an award to his widow Fanny Adante."

"Oh, it's so grand." Ronald knew that Sir Alec Guinness was the actor who played Mr. Obi-Wan in the "Star Wars" trilogy. And Truffaut was the only one in the country who insisted on art and box office.

Both New Wave directors.

In order to promote commercial films, he also participated in Spielberg's "Close Encounters of the Third Kind". Most of his works are artistically and commercially successful masterpieces.

Compared with Godard, another leader of the New Wave who had a falling out with him, he would only make some incomprehensible short films, leaving the audience and actors confused as to how high he was.

Unfortunately, he died of brain cancer. After Taoguo, there were no directors who insisted on making commercial films.

Without Minahan's wordiness, Ronald felt that there was nothing to talk about and soon fell asleep.

After a long transoceanic flight, Ronald felt a little uncomfortable even in first class. He also felt that his face was swollen in his sleep, and his toes and fingers were a little swollen and numb.

"Do you want to know the secret to rejuvenating after a long flight? When you get to the hotel, take off your shoes and socks, put your bare feet on the carpet, and let your toes curl up like a fist. Repeat a few times and you will be fine in no time.

It can return to normal.”

"Like making a fist?" Ronald seemed to have dreamed of some movie, and a character was teaching him how to adapt to long-distance flights.

"Haha, I know it sounds weird, right? I've been doing this for nine years. Believe me, it's more effective than drinking hot coffee and taking a hot bath."

"Mr. Li, Mr. Li..."

"Uh...huh?" Ronald was woken up by the stewardess's voice, and the images and sounds in his dream disappeared.

"We are about to land at Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport. Please open the sun visor of the port window..."

"Mr. Golan..."

Ronald rubbed his eyes and curled his toes like a fist. He still remembered the plot in the dream and tried it a few times wearing slippers, and it seemed to work well.

The two got off the plane. Minahan looked around and found his cousin Yoram, who was talking to the leaders of Cannon's country branch. They seemed to be waiting for some star to arrive.

"Yoram, Yoram, who do you think is here, Gaga?" Minahan quickly ran up and called Yoram to come over and see Ronald.

"Ah ha, Ronald. We haven't seen each other for a long time. How long will you stay in Paris this time?" Yoram was originally waiting for other publishers, but when he saw his cousin Minahan invited Ronald,
