In the afternoon of the same day, Yi Feiyang met the "Queen of Pop" Madonna at the date place on time. You know, as a big-name Hollywood star, Madonna doesn't have much private time, especially when Yi Feiyang invites her to be the company's training teacher. Madonna
You must understand the actual situation in the training and see if you are qualified, so that it can be separated from your own schedule.
Of course, there is another very important reason. In the United States, time is money, and stars’ precious time is even more valuable gold. Generally, Hollywood stars need to charge high fees for catwalks, tailoring, or even appearances for certain commercial activities.
It’s hard work, not to mention that as a teacher, you need to explain the “price” clearly.
Sometimes Yi Feiyang is very uncomfortable with Americans' explicit way of "talking about money".
It’s because the Chinese have been saving face since ancient times and kept money as “A Du Wu”. Even when it comes to money, they say you are stink of copper and are vulgar. But it’s different in the United States. Whether it’s friends or relatives, when it comes to money,
, Jingwei is clearly distinguished, very clear.
For example, right now, Yi Feiyang and Madonna are bargaining over the "tutor fee." Of course, as a big star, Madonna will not directly negotiate the price with Yi Feiyang. This is not her job, nor is it what she is good at.
The person who negotiated the price was Madonna's agent, an old man with a bald forehead.
The old man was very good at negotiating prices. In Yi Feiyang's opinion, he had already reached the level of walking on snow without leaving a trace and flying flowers hurting people. So Yi Feiyang struggled with him for a long time before they negotiated the price. Immediately afterwards, the two parties reached an agreement.
According to the agreement, Madonna, as the star consultant of Fantasy Pictures, will devote 3 hours a week to provide guidance on acting, singing, stage walking, experience, packaging, image design, and other aspects based on the specific situation of female artists.
For this reason, Dream Company will give a guidance fee of 1.5 million US dollars, indicating the friendship price, but it must be settled clearly every week, without arrears and no IOUs.
In other words, Yi Feiyang spent 1.5 million to buy Madonna's three hours of coaching time per week to teach girls, which averages out to 500,000 US dollars per hour. Such a price is simply unbelievable to outsiders, absolutely
It's a lion's mouth, but in Yi Feiyang's view, it can be said to be worth the money. After all, in many commercial activities, it costs hundreds of thousands of dollars to have Madonna come out to cut the ribbon.
Now that the price has been negotiated, the bald old man is done and retired. It is Madonna's turn and Yi Feiyang's turn to start chatting about other things, such as the training of Anne and the others, the development of Hollywood star culture and so on.
I have to say that this Madonna definitely deserves the title of "Celebrity Mentor". During the conversation, Yi Feiyang got to know her more deeply. Madonna often explained some of her training concepts from her own experiences and perspectives, which made Yi Feiyang understand her more deeply.
Feiyang benefited a lot. After all, he is considered a half-star. It is rare to hear such words of experience. The most important thing is that Yi Feiyang feels that his money was not wasted.
After talking in detail for more than half an hour, the two agreed on when the class would officially start. Then Madonna put on her sunglasses and left in a hurry. It was said that she still had a commercial to shoot at the beach.
Yi Feiyang lay down on the leisure chair a little tiredly, took a sip of the light bitter coffee, and suddenly felt very tired.
I closed my eyes and thought, wondering if Anne and the others could understand their good intentions...
…
It must be said that Madonna is definitely a very dedicated teacher. After signing the contract with Fantasy Pictures, Madonna took time to come to Fantasy Pictures the next day.
Training room.
"Anne, Jessica, Pals, and Ivanka, this is the American pop queen Madonna. In the next week, she will teach you the most important lesson in your entire acting career." Yi
Feiyang didn't beat around the bush and directly introduced Madonna to Annie and the others.
Anne Hathaway and the others may wish that the mentor Yi Feiyang invited turned out to be Madonna. In fact, even if Yi Feiyang didn't introduce her much, they knew Madonna very well. The American pop queen in the 1990s, although there was a surge of rising stars, she is now
Her fame has declined somewhat, and she is not as famous as she once was. However, due to her fame, Madonna still remains firmly at the top of the pop music scene in North America.
In terms of net worth, unlike Michael Jackson, who was arrogant and unhappy with investments, Madonna was a real super rich woman in the entertainment industry. She was successful in real estate speculation, branding, and starting a company.
Therefore, not to mention Anne and Jessica who admire her very much, even Pars and Ivanka, two wealthy daughters, are also sincerely convinced by Madonna.
In fact, Madonna once made a guest appearance in "The Dance" starring Annie and the others. Unfortunately, during the filming, Madonna almost always rushed to participate in the guest appearance, so she and Annie did not socialize, but everyone said they were "working together"
"Yes, after Yi Feiyang's introduction, we immediately became familiar with him.
"Hi, Mr. Madonna, I'm Jessica Alba, you are sexier in person than in the movie!" Jessica is a good person and good at talking.
"Hello, I'm Anne Hathaway." Anne was simple by nature. She fell in love with this famous teacher at the first sight of Madonna.
"I'm Pals Hilton, nice to meet you!" Pals has met many celebrities and spoke very casually.
"I am Ivanka Trump. Please give me your advice in the future!"
…
"Okay, beauties, nice to meet you." Madonna clapped her hands and said, "In the future, I hope we can cooperate well and bring your aesthetics to a new level. My purpose is simple, that is
Under the supervision of Mr. Yi Feiyang, I will cultivate you into real big stars. Yes, this is my responsibility and task. Now the filming begins...!"
Simple and neat!
Take people's money and eliminate disasters with them!
After finishing the polite remarks, Madonna began her formal class.
"First of all, I want to ask you a few questions. First, what do you think is the significance of superstars' existence in the world?"
Almost without thinking, Jessica replied: "Make a lot of money."
This answer made Yi Feiyang feel so embarrassed that he was almost embarrassed to look at Madonna again.
Anne, Pals, and Ivanka all felt that Jessica’s answer was very real. Yes, why don’t you become a superstar just to make money? Is it just to become famous?!
"No." Madonna shook her right index finger, "The significance of a superstar's existence is not only for economic reasons. The more important reason for his existence is because in this era, fewer and fewer people have faith. They are lonely and have no regard for others.
Without a sense of trust, life is very hard, boring, and boring. They need a perfect person to provide them with the ultimate emotional refuge. And this person is a real superstar! Superstars not only exist in literary and artistic works, but also in real life
Among them, he also carries a strong social function. His words and deeds can affect his fans, fans and even the entire society. Therefore, as a superstar, the first thing is the spirit of fraternity and a solid sense of social responsibility. This
A little, do you have any?"
"I didn't!" Jessica replied truthfully.
Anne and the other three also shook their heads, indicating the same as Jessica.
"This won't work, you have to have it."
"Then how can we have it?"
"It's very simple, imagine that all your fans and fans are cancer patients. They may die at any time, and their only wish is to see your performance." Madonna said.
Even Yi Feiyang had to admit that this assumption was really heavy. After Jessica heard this metaphor, her face immediately became serious, "I have a little feeling."
"So do you know what a superstar is?"
"Something that can make a lot of money." Jessica replied quickly again, and Yi Feiyang almost fainted again.
"No." Madonna shook her finger again, "Superstar is a dream. This dream does not belong to herself, but to the entire society. The public likes to be paralyzed and deceived, so you must know how to cater to them at all times.
Interesting, otherwise they will forget your dream and look for new dreams that make them feel happy. But the public is also ignorant and does not know what they really need. So your dream is catering to their needs.
At the same time, you cannot completely follow their ideas, because then they will lose patience with you because of their lack of novelty."
Regarding what a superstar is, Madonna began to impart her own views and opinions. It must be said that this concept is really novel for Anne Hathaway and Jessica Alba.
So much so that everyone listened with gusto.
After a while, Madonna asked again: "Anne, Jessica and Pars, the three of you have acted and are very famous, so do you think you are popular enough now?"
Anne said: "Not bad."
Jessica shrugged, "It would be better if it could be redder."
Pars replied: "Oh my God, I'm so popular. Those reporters are always chasing me!"
…
Madonna smiled, "So do you think you are a superstar?"
Annie shook her head, "No, I'm not."
Jessica: "There should still be some distance."
Pars: "In the future, I will definitely be a superstar!"
After listening to their answers, Madonna said: "Then I can tell you now, if any of you will be a superstar in the future, I would rather choose her!" After saying that, Madonna pointed her finger at Ivanka Trump, who had been silent.
general.
"Is it her? God, are you mistaken? She just joined the industry and has never even acted!" Of course it was Paris Hilton who said this. She didn't understand why Madonna was so optimistic about Ivanka.
, Damn it, could it be said that she is prettier and more elegant than him?!
Not to mention Annie and the others, even Yi Feiyang, who was listening with his arms folded, was curious as to why Madonna said that.
