Chapter 236 "American Idol"

At 8 a.m. on September 9, 2009, Lin Feng arrived in Los Angeles. At this time, there were still 49 hours before the 9.11 impact.

Los Angeles, referred to as LA, is located in California, USA. It is the largest city in California, USA, and the second largest city in the United States (after New York City). It is also known as the "City of Angels".

For the whole world, Los Angeles is undoubtedly the most famous for Hollywood and, of course, Disneyland. For sports fans, there is also a very famous NBA basketball team - the Los Angeles Lakers, the pride of this city.

After Lin Feng arrived in Los Angeles, Fox TV station had already sent someone to pick him up.

"Mr. Lin, our producers have been waiting for you for a long time. These are..." The American guy in charge of picking up the airport did not expect that there were five people in Lin Feng's group. He originally thought that Lin Feng came alone, but unexpectedly he brought

There were four burly bodyguards with serious faces. His car simply couldn't accommodate so many people.

"They are my bodyguards. Okay, let's just take a taxi." Lin Feng went straight to hail the taxi.

Although the American guy who picked him up felt that this was a bit rude, he could only do it. However, he was really surprised that Lin Feng actually brought bodyguards. He secretly guessed in his mind what kind of big shot Lin Feng was, and he actually wanted to hire 4 bodyguards.

Although Lin Feng has appeared on the cover of Time magazine, the guy who picked him up at the airport is just an ordinary American wage earner. Although he occasionally reads Time magazine, how can he pay attention to a rich man in a distant country on the other side of the ocean. Therefore.

, did not know Lin Feng.

Lin Feng was also helpless. He usually only brought two bodyguards with him, but Wang Meng said that Lin Feng had a different status now. He was the richest man in mainland China. To prevent accidents, he brought more bodyguards for safety. Therefore, Lin Feng was specially replaced with four bodyguards.

A retired special soldier from the secret force serves as Lin Feng's bodyguard. Among the four, one is good at all kinds of means of transportation, except for airplanes and ships. One is good at multiple languages; one is good at various high-tech products, and also

There was an unknown but extremely powerful trader who was good at finance, and this time Lin Feng was going to speculate heavily on the US stock index futures at his special request.

Of course, these are the "talents" of the four of them. What the four are best at is fighting and firearms. No, in Wang Meng's words, killing. Soldiers who have undergone special training can no longer be called soldiers, but a soldier.

Killing machines. These four people will also become Lin Feng's personal bodyguards for a long time to come.

Not long after, Lin Feng followed the American guy who picked him up from the airport and arrived at the Fox headquarters.

"Mr. Lin, welcome!" The producers were Nigel Lessig and Ken Warwick. When they saw Lin Feng coming, they had an insincere smile on their faces.

"Mr. Lin, your country's "Super Girl" was very successful, but we feel that we can make it even more successful, so we specially asked Mr. Lin to assist us." Although Ken Warwick's tone was extremely enthusiastic, there was a hint of confusion between his words.

The contempt is clearly evident.

Lin Feng frowned slightly, this condescending tone made Lin Feng extremely annoying.

"Mr. Lin, this is the contract we have prepared for you. The contract stipulates that Lin Feng will be invited to stay in Los Angeles for three days to provide guidance and suggestions on our "American Idol" project. We will pay Mr. Lin 30,000

Remuneration in US dollars. Of course, we will also bear Mr. Lin’s air tickets to and from the hotel, as well as the accommodation expenses for these three days.” Nigel Lessig handed Lin Feng a contract from the side.

Lin Feng frowned again. The attitude of these two people towards him was really irritating, and they almost treated him like a beggar.

Lin Feng didn't know that the reason why the two of them were hostile to Lin Feng was not only that they, as gold medal program producers, despised Chinese TV programs, but more importantly, that "American Idol" was owned by Fox Television Station President Roger E.

Roger Ailes made the decision. After accidentally discovering the popular "Super Girl" in China, Roger Ailes saw the prospect of this program at a glance. Therefore, he downloaded the "Super Girl" Shanghai Division program from the Internet.

After watching all the videos carefully, he immediately convened a meeting with his staff and approved the plan for "American Idol", appointing gold medal producers Nigel Lessig and Ken Warwick as the producers of "American Idol".

However, in order to avoid the failure of "American Idol", the cautious Roger Ailes called Director Zhao of Shanghai Oriental TV Station, hoping to send someone to serve as a temporary consultant. Therefore, Director Zhao recommended Lin Feng. However, this was

For Nigel Lessig and Ken Warwick, who are already gold medal producers, they feel it is an insult. Isn't it a joke to let Chinese people serve as consultants? Can the Chinese make movies and TV shows?

?The two of them despised Chinese TV programs, so their attitude towards Lin Feng was naturally particularly bad.

"Mr. Lin, are you satisfied with this contract? It's US$30,000 for three days." Ken Warwick said with great disdain.

"Mr. Warwick, I came here at the invitation of Roger Ailes, the president of your company. I don't want your country to fail in imitating our country's "Super Girl", so I came because I am not interested in this mere 30,000 US dollars!

" Lin Feng sneered and retorted.

When Nigel Lessig and Ken Warwick heard this, their faces turned red with anger and they were about to get angry. At this time, a middle-aged man walked in.

"Ah, Mr. Lin is here, welcome, welcome. I am Roger Ailes, President of Fox, welcome you." When Roger Ailes saw Lin Feng, he immediately stepped forward with a warm look on his face.

"Roger, if you want to hire this person as a consultant, I won't be the producer." Nigel Lessig said angrily.

"Me too. What does a Chinese know about television? He just plays the piano randomly." Ken Warwick said in unison.

Roger Ailes frowned, he didn't expect that the three of them would be in such trouble just after they met.

"Mr. Lin, please have a cup of coffee." Roger Ailes ordered someone to bring the coffee and took Nigel Lessig and Ken Warwick to the office on the side.

"What's going on?" Roger asked.

"Roger, this Chinese is so rude. We are not willing to cooperate with an rude and rude Chinese." Ken said angrily. Thinking of Lin Feng's demeanor and tone just now, he felt uncomfortable.

"Discourteous, rude?" Roger shook his head, "Okay, after all, "American Idol" is also based on "Super Girl". For the future of "American Idol", we need to ask more from him," Roger said.

.

"But there's no need to give this Chinese $30,000, it's too high!" Nigel protested.

"High?" Roger shook his head helplessly and handed Nigel a copy of Time magazine, "Take it and have a look!"

"Boss, is this the Chinese guy just now?" Nigel took the magazine and took a look at it, and he shouted in surprise.

Ken also came over and looked horrified after reading it.

"Yes, this Lin Feng has earned 1 billion US dollars in 2 years and has become the richest man in mainland China. How can people fancy this mere 30,000 US dollars? I'm afraid that this 30,000 US dollars will not be able to hire him and will be regarded as an insult. Okay.

After all, "American Idol" also drew lessons from his conception of "Supergirl." The two of you temporarily put aside your pretensions as gold medal producers and cooperated with him." Roger first praised Lin Feng, and then reassured the two of them, "We in the United States

People are the most powerful nation in the world. Although the concept of "American Idol" comes from his "Super Girl", we can definitely do better. You have to prove this to Americans."

Roger was worthy of being the president of Fox, and he turned the mood of the two of them around with just a few words. However, the two of them were still extremely indifferent towards Lin Feng, but they finally stopped ridiculing Lin Feng. But even if they ridiculed Lin Feng, they would only bring trouble to themselves.

Its humiliation.

Lin Feng can earn 1 billion US dollars in two years, and he has the qualifications to make anyone fall for him. To ridicule Lin Feng, I am afraid that even Bill Gates would not be qualified.

"Mr. Lin, in addition to hiring you as a temporary consultant this time, I also want to invite you to participate in one of our talk shows." Originally, Roger just wanted to invite Lin Feng to be a temporary consultant, but in this issue of Time magazine,

, Lin Feng has become a cover star and the richest man in mainland China. Roger will naturally not miss this news hot spot. He believes that the American people must really want to know about this 21-year-old young man who made 1 billion US dollars in 2 years. You must know that they are the same age.

At that time, Bill Gates was still fooling around in college.

Lin Feng frowned slightly. He was not here to boost ratings for Fox this time. Besides, he could easily invite the richest man in mainland China. The richest man in mainland China would be too worthless. He wanted to refuse, but when he saw the name of this talk show, he

As for the host, Lin Feng immediately agreed.

"Okay, no problem." Lin Feng thought for a while and asked, "Talk shows are all about saying what comes to mind, right? If I accidentally say the wrong thing, will it cause any adverse consequences to your station?"

"Haha, Mr. Lin, don't worry, this is America, freedom of speech." When Roger heard that Lin Feng agreed to participate in the talk show, Da Le, in response to Lin Feng's question, shook his head and repeatedly asked Lin Feng to reassure him.

"Haha, I know." Lin Feng smiled evilly.

"Well, thank you very much Mr. Lin for the compliment. The program is scheduled to be broadcast nationwide at 7:30 tomorrow night. These are some questions that may be asked. Please prepare more for Mr. Lin." Roger is very efficient in doing things, and under Lin Feng

Everything had been arranged before getting off the plane, and now he was just waiting for Lin Feng to nod. However, while he was happy, he did not notice the evil smile on Lin Feng's face. Otherwise, maybe he would definitely prevent Lin Feng from participating in this talk show.

Lin Feng looked at the questions. They were all about how to make a fortune, and some questions about his views on the future economy. But thinking about the host of the show, he would definitely not ask these questions. After Roger left, he immediately

Tear it up and throw it away.

"You two, can we start?" Lin Feng sat on his seat and said holding the "American Idol" project.

Nigel and Ken looked at each other helplessly, and began to discuss some details of "American Idol" with Lin Feng. However, once they started working, Nigel and Ken put aside their prejudices against Lin Feng, or the Chinese, and began to carefully

Discuss all the details about American Idol.

Lin Feng had to admit that Nigel and Ken were worthy of being American gold medal producers. This project had already made up for many of the loopholes in "Super Girl" and made it more commercial. The profits they could gain would be far greater.

More than "Super Girl". However, Lin Feng still raised a few details that they didn't pay attention to.

The "American Idol" rule established by Nigel and Ken is that Americans over the age of 18 can participate, but there is no upper limit. This is undoubtedly the case in later "American Idol" programs when a 70-year-old man participated.

It is not in line with the purpose of "American Idol", and the audience does not like to watch the performance of a 70-year-old man. Lin Feng directly asked him to stipulate that he should be an American citizen between 18 and 28 years old.

Nigel and Ken immediately woke up and looked at Lin Feng with a hint of reluctant admiration.

Furthermore, Nigel and Ken have been undecided about the judges and live hosts. They both have their own candidates, but neither of them is the best. Each candidate has its own shortcomings, and neither can convince the other.

Later, they even started arguing in front of Lin Feng. This also allowed Lin Feng to see another side of American work, which is hot! In the past, the relationship between the two seemed like brothers, but now when they quarreled, they felt like enemies.

Fight with reason and never give in.

Lin Feng shook his head helplessly. The two fire-breathing monsters almost deafened his ears.

"Okay, you two, I have a few candidates." Lin Feng named the future hosts and judges of the popular "American Idol" for his own ears.

The host, Ryan Seacrest, was named the sexiest man in Los Angeles because of "American Idol". The three judges are the beautiful and sexy Paula Abdul, the black Randy Jackson with a unique commentating style, and the but deeply hated black man who is hated by all the contestants.

Simon Cowell, an Englishman who is loved by the audience.

Looking at the talents recommended by Lin Feng, and then searching the Internet to find out the deeds of the four people, Nigel and Ken had extremely weird expressions. These four people are so suitable, they are definitely the best candidates. But it is China that they look down on.

The person suggested this, which made the two of them very embarrassed. After muttering a few words, the two began to discuss the following.

It took Lin Feng only half a day to complete the originally three-day meeting. Nigel and Ken were once again surprised by his work efficiency. Although he was still extremely cold towards Lin Feng and was not convinced by his words, he had already admitted it in his heart.

Lin Feng's ability.

This Chinese is not simple!

The next day, while waiting for the evening talk show, Lin Feng went to Hollywood.

At this time, at 8 a.m. on September 10, 2009, Lin Feng arrived in Los Angeles. At this time, there were still 25 hours before the 9.11 impact.

Lin Feng went to Hollywood today mainly to find Wentworth Miller, the actor who plays Michael Scofield, one of the most successful Fox TV series "Prison Break".

Yesterday, I had a half-day contact with Nigel and Ken. Although the cooperation was very pleasant, the contempt Nigel and Ken had for Chinese TV and TV producers made Lin Feng extremely uncomfortable. During his meditation last night, Lin Feng

The wind has shaken my heart to make a TV series. Besides, I once boasted in Korea that I would make three of them, Lee Ji-woo, the best actresses in five years. It’s time to fulfill my promise.
Chapter completed!
