Chapter 573 Trip to Los Angeles (5)(1/3)

In this meeting, the serious business was basically finished.

When she came to sit on the sofa in the living room, Liu Yifei was also very relaxed and exchanged information about the Brilliant Era with the Macron family.

Before Jack went to New Haven to meet Liu Yifei, he had already collected general information about Brilliant Era and Chu Xuan.

After meeting with Liu Yifei, I went home and told my parents about the situation. After I felt it was more reliable, I used channels at home to learn more about Bright Times.

But no matter how much they know, they only get it from other people's ears. Confirming some information from Liu Yifei's mouth will naturally make them feel more at ease.

Hearing the development experience of Brilliant Times from Liu Yifei, Old Jack praised: "It has developed to such an extent in just three years. Brilliant Times is just like its name, it is really dazzling."

Liu Yifei smiled, and the company was praised by Old Jack, and she was also honored.

"I think the person who deserves the greatest credit should be Mr. Chu Xuan. It was the micro-entertainment he created that gave Bright Times a strong start-up capital. Only with this extraordinary capital flow and the shares of micro-entertainment did it attract all channel partners to join.

, thus allowing the Brilliant Times to develop rapidly." Jack said, explaining the essential reason why the Brilliant Times has developed so rapidly.

Jones nodded in approval, glanced at Jack and said: "If you have Mr. Chu Xuan's ability, Macron's future may be brilliant in your hands. When you have the opportunity to meet and communicate with Mr. Chu Xuan, talk to Chu Xuan more."

Learn from me, sir."

Jack and his mother looked at each other and spread their hands helplessly.

His mother always likes to compare him with others, and her mother who is worse than him will just choose to ignore it, and will only use the one who is better than him to ridicule him.

This kind of ridicule is another way of encouragement in my mother's eyes, but if it is a person with a bad mentality, it may be a big blow.

He doesn't know if mothers all over the world are like this, but there are really many mothers like this in America.

Liu Yifei glanced at Jack and felt very happy when she heard Jones praise her boyfriend.

She looked at Jones and said: "Whether our cooperation is successful or not, as I am a good friend of Grande, and Jack is Grande's boyfriend, I believe that my fiancé and I will always be good friends with them in the future."

"My fiancé likes to get acquainted with outstanding people like Jack who are traveling with him. He thinks that such two parties will have more consensus and passion when communicating."

She looked at Jack: "When my fiancé comes over after finishing his work in China, I will introduce him to the excellent producer Jack. I believe they will become very good friends."

Jack nodded, meeting Chu Xuan was something he had always looked forward to.

Liu Yifei continued: "Perhaps in the future, one in China and the other in Hollywood, they will become close friends who look forward to each other and make progress together. This may be a good story in the entertainment industry in the future."

Macron and his wife smiled, and Liu Yifei's words made them feel very comfortable.

There are no parents who don’t want their children to achieve something. They compare their sons with Chu Xuan, and Liu Yifei treats Chu Xuan and Jack equally. The beautiful picture in the vision is also what they look forward to and look forward to.

Liu Yifei has always kept her legs close together and placed them on her knees, holding the bag in both hands. She is very polite, polite, gentle and elegant.

It is said that women are men's cards when they are outside. Liu Yifei, who is only 20 years old, has the courage to come to them to discuss, and her words and deeds are polite and elegant, and she speaks in an organized manner without any stage fright.

The more Macron and his wife watched, the more they admired her. Their favorable impression of Liu Yifei skyrocketed. Even though they had never met Chu Xuan, their feelings for Chu Xuan were also heightened by Liu Yifei's performance.

Jones, in particular, glanced at Grande, frowned and said, "Look at Sissi, and then look at you. I'm afraid Jack won't even be able to hold up the scene when he takes you out in the future."

"It's coming, it's coming." Ailande said three times in her heart: "It's coming."

She knew that this future mother-in-law, who had always had a bad look at her, would definitely find an opportunity to criticize her, and would not give her face even in the presence of guests. At this point, Jack, her son, did not understand Jones as well as she did.

She was also speechless. She hadn't said a word since she entered the door, and she was inadvertently shot while lying down.

Thinking of Jones' complaints against her over the past few years, she was very angry but struggled to find a way forward.

But comparing Sissi to her made her very angry.

Don't you look at Cissie's experience, where she and her boyfriend work together, grow together, and have the same pursuits.

What about me? If you give me a chance to work with Jack, I can prove that I can do it!

You don't give me a chance, and you just tell me every year that I can't do this or that, but you can give me a way to do it!

She was holding back a lot of things in her heart, but she didn't dare to say them and looked gloomy.

"Why are you talking about this?" Old Jack reminded his wife. Isn't it embarrassing to talk about family affairs in front of outsiders?

Jack shook his head helplessly. He had long been accustomed to his mother's attitude towards Grande, so he rarely took Grande home. Grande himself didn't want to come, but this time Liu Yifei wanted to come over so she stopped by.

Liu Yifei saw this scene in her eyes, and Alande's helplessness made her feel a little distressed.

She was thinking about how she could help Ellende.

Grande told her about Jack's family, and she also learned clearly the specific reasons why Jack's parents didn't want to see Grande.

Speaking of things in Jack's family, they are somewhat legendary.

Jack's grandfather was born in Los Angeles in the 1920s. That era happened to be the period of the Great Depression. People did not have enough to eat, did not have enough clothes to wear, and human life was not valuable. This was also a true portrayal of the American economic depression.

But what is thought-provoking and ironic is that the entertainment of the upper class was not affected much. The Hollywood film and television industry at that time was still developing rapidly to provide services for this group of people.

Not only that, but a lot of bloody capital was accumulated through the dividends of the entertainment industry that was still booming during the Great Depression.

Twentieth Century Pictures, now one of the eight major Hollywood studios, was also the former Twentieth Century Fox. This is how it came to be. It was established in 1935, two years after the end of the Great Depression.

In order to catch up with established Hollywood companies such as Paramount, Universal Pictures, MGM, and Warner Bros., 20th Century Fox uses box office shares to stimulate important parts of the entire film and television production process, including the production of studios.

The group is included.

This incentive system lasted for several years. When Jack's grandfather joined the 20th Century Fox production team, he also caught up with this wave of benefits.

As movies in the 1940s such as "The Grapes of Wrath", "Green Hills" and "The Scalper" continued to earn good profits, Grandpa Jack, who received a share of the box office profits, completed the accumulation of original funds.

After Grandpa Jack left his job, he established his own film and television production team, which coincided with an important period when global film and television completely transitioned from the silent film era to the sound film and television era.

The dividends of Grandpa Jack's entry into the era, according to Grandpa Jack's description, Grandpa Jack said that if you stand on the wind, the money will fall into your pocket.

The high-spirited Grandpa Jack was full of confidence, but he never thought how a team could defeat the eight major Hollywood stars.

When the wind stopped, Grandpa Jack’s dream of automatically getting money in his pocket also stopped.

When Liu Yifei heard what Grande said, she understood one thing, that is, Grandpa Jack has no foresight, no long-term vision, and no clear mind. He has been immersed in the atmosphere of making quick money for so many years.

There is no direction.

There are many people like this. They know that the trend is coming, but they don’t know how to continue their own trend.

In the 1950s, Grandpa Jack, who was nearly thirty years old, finally realized that he wanted to set up a company to attract capital.

At this time he met two noble men, two women who both liked him.

One of the women's family owns a mine, and the other woman's family is rich in Hollywood.

Grandpa Jack had both options, and finally chose a woman whose family owned a mine whose status and class were much higher than his. This woman was Grandma Jack.

With the help of Grandma Jack, Grandpa Jack's entertainment company is developing smoothly in Hollywood. Although it is not as good as the eight major Hollywood companies, it can still get a good share of the cake.

However, from the end of the war to the 1970s, global mineral resources were in turmoil, and many countries took the resources back into state ownership, seriously affecting the original industrial chains of many capitals in developed countries.

Developed countries have adopted strategies to hinder the development of emerging countries through various means, and Grandma Jack's family is the cannon fodder in this strategy.

In the end, he lost the case in the international court and faced huge compensation and bankruptcy liquidation.

If you want to keep your family, there is only one way, and that is marriage.

In this way, Grandma Jack remarried and separated from Grandpa Jack.

Without Grandma Jack's protection, Grandpa Jack's company collapsed, and was brought down by the other woman who originally pursued Grandpa Jack, and the Hollywood capitalist family behind her.

When Liu Yifei heard this, she thought it could be made into a movie. The experience of Grandpa Jack is really legendary, very contemporary and capitalistic, and there is also love and hate mixed in. This is simply a sample of a literary film.

Later, Grandpa Jack returned to his old business and organized a production team to work for people. Among them, Jack's father also learned production from Grandpa Jack's team since he was a child.

Jack's father has always wanted to set up a company, but Grandpa Jack has always blocked it and was not allowed to do so because the woman's family continues to this day and also controls a distribution company that has close cooperation with the eight major Hollywood companies and has its own global theater chain.

The family has always resented the Macron family because of Grandpa Jack's abandonment of women. Grandpa Jack was afraid that Jack's father would be in trouble and everything he did was in vain, so he always blocked Jack's father's idea of ​​setting up a company.

Even though Jack's father and Jack's mother Jones had been married for many years, they still could not realize their corporate dream.

But there are unforeseen circumstances, and things also take strange turns.

In 1992, seventy-year-old Grandpa Jack...

And the woman from the capital family is a grandmother in her sixties...

Together!

The past is like a cloud of smoke, but now comes love again at dusk?

Under such circumstances, Jack's father and Jack's mother's Macron Film and Television was successfully established and continues to this day.

"Oh my God! Grandpa Jack is so awesome!" Liu Yifei was dumbfounded when she heard this. Grandpa Jack's experience can be described as varied, really exciting, and very legendary for a little person.

But even so, the giant issuance company did not help Macron because of this, and still disliked Macron and his family. Otherwise, Macron's current predicament would be just a minor incident with such a backer.

The two things that Grandpa Jack regrets most in his life are that he did not start a business in the limelight back then, and that he chose the wrong woman. Otherwise, perhaps one of the top eight Hollywood stars would have his name, Macron.

Before Grandpa Jack and Grandma went to Hawaii to settle down and take care of themselves for the rest of their lives, they told Jack's father and mother a lot of things: when considering problems, you must think about the long term, and don't just think about the immediate benefits.

Because of this kind of education and advice since childhood, Jack's father and Jack's mother were very opposed to Jack and Grande being together.

There is a big gap between the capital levels of the clothing business run by the Alander family and Macron Film and Television.

Just like Grandpa Jack and Grandma Jack, their status is several levels lower. Even if they get married, Grandpa Jack can't take charge of his own career, because without the protection of Grandma Jack, Grandpa Jack's company will collapse at any time, which is very passive.

Grande and Jack may be like this, they are very much in love now, but things will change after they get married.

Liu Yifei understands very well. Isn't it the same for mothers and fathers? The mother of a lower class had no say in the family at all, and eventually divorced within a few years.
To be continued...
