At eight o'clock that night, Yi Feiyang appeared at the New York charity gala together with three beauties, Meryl, Hathaway, and Ivanka.
Compared with ordinary charity auction evenings, tonight's charity dinner is somewhat different. Not only some celebrities and rich people in New York are present, but also important officials from the US government. For example, Federal Reserve Chairman Greenspan, and future Secretary of State Powell
Wait, it can be said that almost all the participants in this charity gala have a good background, and they are not something ordinary people can participate in casually.
Not many people from the film industry were invited to come, because this is New York, MGM, Fox, and Columbia. The heads of the three major film companies stationed in the local area came, Abbas, the chairman of the North American Film Association, and the great director James-
Cameron, famous actors Tom Hanks, and Denzel Washington attended the dinner, and Will Smith, the black prince whom Yi Feiyang knew, also appeared at the auction.
Seeing such a strong lineup and such a strong aura, Yi Feiyang was really flattered to be invited to such a charity party.
In fact, Yi Feiyang's appearance here "surprised" others, including the great director Cameron, actors Tom Hanks, Denzel Washington, and Will Smith.
.You know, Yi Feiyang has just arrived in New York, and he is actually able to attend such a large-scale and important dinner. I have to say that it is surprising.
Yi Feiyang brought three beauties, Meryl's charm is still there, Hathaway is pure and elegant, and Ivanka is noble and charming. Three top beauties of different varieties appeared here at the same time, accompanying Yi Feiyang like three flowers.
Set against a green leaf, it can be said to be extremely eye-catching.
After Yi Feiyang entered the banquet hall, he greeted everyone he knew, and the same was true for Meryl and Ivanka. One of them is an old drama star who has been in Hollywood, and the other is a wealthy daughter. They all know some people more or less, but only
Hathaway stayed close to Yi Feiyang and seemed indifferent to everything around her.
In fact, it is true. Hathaway is indifferent to fame and fortune. If she hadn't met Yi Feiyang, she might have become a nun. She wouldn't have given a second glance to such colorful social entertainment. But that's her kind of thing.
The cold and indifferent expression, in the eyes of some men, does not have an attractive flavor.
"Also, director Cameron, hello!" Yi Feiyang greeted the bearded Cameron. Yi Feiyang knew Cameron thanks to Ramon, the boss of Paramount, who invested in Cameron's "Titans".
"Nick" almost caused him to sink his ship, but fortunately the film became a masterpiece and became a super hit, which made Raymond's position at Paramount even stronger.
Yi Feiyang admires Cameron very much. After all, there are not many people in Hollywood who dare to spend huge sums of money to make movies. In the future, people like Cameron will invest in "Avatar", which is said to be the largest investment in history.
You're such a great guy, you don't have to admire him even if you don't want to.
Cameron's understanding of Yi Feiyang is basically based on Raymond's introduction to him. The bearded director is most interested in tinkering with his own movies and big productions. He is almost deaf to the things around him.
He is blind, so he doesn't know much about Yi Feiyang's recent popularity... Even though he was dragged to this party by Abbas beside him, he originally wanted to fertilize his roses in the garden.
Why is Cameron like this? The reason is that he is worthy enough. The man who directed "Titanic", the highest-grossing film in history, has won countless Oscars, held up a statuette and shouted "I am the king of the world" domineeringly.
The movie tyrant has full power to prey on whomever he wants and who he won't.
Therefore, when Yi Feiyang greeted him, Cameron just nodded politely and turned a blind eye to Yi Feiyang's extended hand.
Compared to Spielberg, who stutters a bit but is very humane, the Cameron in front of him is so cold and cold that it makes people feel sick.
Yi Feiyang retracted his palm in embarrassment...some guys nearby who liked to watch the fun snickered, "Look, that Chinese Yi is deflated."
"Yeah, when a little tyrant meets a big tyrant, it's bullshit!"
"Don't think that just because you have made a few blockbuster movies, you are so great. Look, the great director Cameron doesn't care about him at all!"
"One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, let alone a little tiger whose hair has not yet fully grown."
…
Yi Feiyang turned a blind eye to these gossips and still said to Cameron very kindly: "I like the movies you directed very much. If I have the opportunity, I will definitely ask you for some shooting skills."
Yi Feiyang is not the kind of person who is hot-faced and cold-hearted. Since Cameron ignores him so much, Yi Feiyang will not get close to him anymore. So after saying this, he turned around and left without being haughty or haughty. Just in time,
Will Smith, whom Yi Feiyang knew, came towards him, and the two shook hands cordially and chatted.
Looking at Yi Feiyang's back, a trace of disdain flowed from the corner of Cameron's mouth. Next to him, Abbas, the chairman of the North American Film Association, suddenly said: "Don't underestimate him, man. This Chinese director has great energy. He can not only write and direct, but also
He is also very skillful. Maybe the box office record you set in the future will be broken by him, and your status as the king of the world will also be overthrown by him!"
"Are you irritating me?"
"No, I'm telling the facts...the facts in Hollywood. Many people say that if China Yi continues to grow, it will one day replace you Cameron! This is not what I said, but what the guys in Hollywood said.
!But in my opinion, this statement is not impossible!" Abbas glanced meaningfully at Yi Feiyang. At the last Film Association meeting, if this guy hadn't suddenly stood up to make trouble, he wouldn't have been beaten by the people behind his back.
Political bigwigs yelled.
…
"Hi, dear Yi, I didn't expect to see you here." After not seeing you for a few months, Will Smith's complexion has improved a lot, and he is no longer the life-or-death look he once had.
"Yeah, I'm surprised too. Aren't you in Los Angeles? Why are you here?" Yi Feiyang asked with a smile.
"What else, I'm here to heal my wounds... Haha, I'm kidding you, my wife came to reunite with her sister, yes, in addition she also wanted to buy some fashionable clothes, and I was responsible for paying for it.
Bao!" Will said very humorously.
Yi Feiyang couldn't help but smile, "After hearing what you said, I have to carefully consider whether to get married in the future!"
"Oh no!" Will said with a smile, "Look at the beauty next to you. If possible, I think any man would kneel down and propose to her!" Will praised Yi very appropriately.
Hathaway flying around.
Hathaway felt sweet in her heart and glanced at Yi Feiyang with her beautiful eyes. What she meant was, did you see that there are many people who know how to appreciate beauty?
Yi Feiyang shrugged and smiled: "By the way, Will, my new play will premiere soon. Are you interested in being a guest?"
"Premiere, here?"
"Yes, right in New York."
"Of course that's good, man, I don't have anything else to do anyway except go shopping with my wife."
"Then we have an agreement."
"Of course, I will never miss an appointment, but can you give me some more free tickets?"
"Oh, no problem. I'll give you as much as you want."
"Oh no, no, no, I just want to give it to some friends. I hope they can like your movie!" Will Smith laughed, "Also, Yi, you promised me that you would write a script for me. I'm very happy.
Looking forward to working with you.”
Will brought up old things again and asked Yi Feiyang to help write the script.
Yi Feiyang scratched his head in embarrassment, "Sorry, Will, I've been so busy recently, I don't have time to write at all."
"Oh, I knew you, China Yi, are a very busy man." Will sighed with some disappointment.
"Don't say that, Will, please believe me. Since I promised you, I will definitely do it. Well, your script will be wrapped up by me, and it will be completed by the end of this year at the latest."
"Oh God, you said this, don't forget it when the time comes."
"Don't worry, I will never do it!" Yi Feiyang and Will Smith fist bumped to finalize the matter.
…
Yi Feiyang and Will Smith were chatting happily. Not far away, Abbas muttered to the great director Cameron: "Did you see it, man! That guy is hooking up with the black movie star again. Yes, that's right, he
He must have some bad intentions... You know, even people like Spielberg are brothers with him, and some Hollywood stars such as Johnny Depp and Nicolas Cage are all swayed by him.
!”
Cameron's eyes narrowed. It can be said that he had no dislike or affection for Yi Feiyang at first, but with a series of rumors that Yi Feiyang is the biggest talent in Hollywood, his achievements in the future are limitless, and he may even surpass Cameron.
Takashi himself...
This made Cameron, who calls himself the "King of the World" and is arrogant and arrogant, feel very uncomfortable. Now, Abbas in front of him is fanning the flames again, which makes Cameron even more unhappy.
"As I said, this man is very capable. Yes, he has the kind of incredible interpersonal communication. You can't even imagine who he will associate with..." Just when Abbas wanted to reveal the details of Yi Feiyang
When the time comes, there is no need for him to talk anymore...
Because not far away, the first lady of the United States Hillary was waving to Yi Feiyang. After Yi Feiyang saw it, he politely said goodbye to Will Smith and walked over; and over there, almost all the bigwigs in American politics were
, including Greenspan and Powell.
"No way, how could he know someone from the government?" Cameron was surprised for the first time.
"Well... I was just about to say that China's Yi seems to be very close to the first lady." Abbas shrugged helplessly.
…
"Come, dear Yi, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Greenspan and this is Mr. Powell." Hillary introduced Yi Feiyang to these two political bigwigs very friendly.
Greenspan and Powell looked at Yi Feiyang with some surprise, watching Hillary introduce Yi Feiyang to them.
To be honest, First Lady Hillary has seldom been involved in political matters since Clinton took office, so as not to be criticized for being involved in politics. But secretly everyone knows that this iron lady desires power more than anyone else and likes to use power. Therefore, Hillary
Occasionally, some people will be introduced to the political arena, or they will get to know people in the political arena. Of course, the people who can get into Hillary's eyes are by no means ordinary. They are either celebrities in the business world or rising stars in the political world. But the person in front of me...seems to be a movie maker, even more
Surprisingly, they are still Chinese.
However, out of politeness, the two political tycoons still exchanged a few words with Yi Feiyang in a graceful manner. Hillary spared no effort to praise Yi Feiyang for his rare films and his outstanding talent.
Hillary's praise made Yi Feiyang feel a little embarrassed. Looking at Greenspan and Powell looking at him with smiles, Yi Feiyang felt a very unnatural feeling. Of course, this kind of unnaturalness is not the case.
On the surface, Yi Feiyang still looks neither humble nor arrogant, and has great aura.
Yi Feiyang, Greenspan and Powell did not regard Yi Feiyang as an important figure worth making friends with or getting to know, and Hillary's efforts to introduce him were just a walk-through. Therefore, the two of them only asked one or two questions occasionally out of curiosity.
Seems very cold.
Of course Hillary understands this situation. You must know that Clinton has basically announced his resignation, and these two big guys will be the strong men in charge of the United States in the future. Even Hillary herself has a sense of "distance", not to mention the people she introduced.
What about this young director?
However, the reason why Hillary did it was not really to introduce Yi Feiyang to these two important people, and basically guessed the result of the two people's disdain for Yi Feiyang; in fact, Hillary's intention was very simple, just to let Yi Feiyang know each other.
Yi Feiyang is grateful to himself. Yes, he is grateful. He promotes his own political strength. Look, I can introduce such a strong person to you, so that Yi Feiyang can feel that Hillary’s side has not lost its strength because of losing the presidential throne.
It has greatly reduced, thus being grateful to him. On the other hand, Hillary did this to show to the people around her, indirectly showing that she loves talents and is absolutely seeking knowledge for talented people, regardless of status or skin color.
If thirsty.
It can be said that Hillary made this move very accurately, allowing everyone to see her shrewd political skills.
Although Yi Feiyang, the person involved, has not fully understood Hillary's secrets, he is very clear about one thing. He knows how much he weighs, so he will never be complacent, especially in front of so many American strongmen.
In addition, Yi Feiyang also felt the envious, jealous and hateful eyes of those around him. He was the first to shoot. Americans are also human beings, and they also like to be envious of talents. Moreover, Yi Feiyang is a yellow-skinned Chinese, which makes many American directors and filmmakers feel very uncomfortable.
I was unhappy, so I cast thorny eyes on him one by one. The meaning was very obvious, "**! What the hell, you can actually get to know those big guys!"
Here, Yi Feiyang felt more and more thorns in his back, but he could not change the fact before him. A Chinese boy had unintentionally become the target of public criticism. For this, Yi Feiyang really didn't know whether to say thank you to Hillary or talk nonsense.
After a while, Hillary was taken away by an acquaintance. Before leaving, Hillary did not forget to tell Yi Feiyang to have a good chat with Greenspan and Powell.
Let’s talk about you! Yi Feiyang is depressed. People are so polite because of your face. I guess the tea will be cold when you leave like this.
Sure enough, after Hillary left, Greenspan and Powell no longer had to act. They turned a blind eye to a small person like Yi Feiyang, so they started chatting on their own, basically about the United States.
Economics and politics have nothing to do with movies.
Yi Feiyang was embarrassed. He couldn't walk or not walk. He could only stand there stupidly, looking at his eyes, nose and heart, like a living Buddha.
Greenspan and Powell chatted very happily and regarded Yi Feiyang as nothing. After a while, they seemed to remember that there was such a person beside them, so they asked Yi Feiyang politely, "No."
What do you think of the future U.S. economy?"
This was just a polite question, and neither of them expected the Chinese boy in front of them to be able to say anything.
However, Yi Feiyang has been feeling aggrieved for so long, and it is a rare opportunity to speak. Mother, aren't you ignoring me? Then I will ignore you too!
Ever since, Yi Feiyang couldn't help it anymore and expressed his opinion, "In my opinion, the economic situation of the United States will get worse and worse in the future, especially in terms of national debt, it will be even more stretched..."
Yi Feiyang became more and more energetic as he talked. He had already forgotten about hiding one's clumsiness, hiding one's strength and biding one's time, and being modest and cautious...
Yi Feiyang gushed out all the economic facts he knew in his previous life. He spoke very quickly. At the beginning, Greenspan and Powell still looked cold, then they laughed, and then they laughed at the stiffness.
Then his eyes showed surprise, and the muscles on his stiff face began to twitch, especially when Yi Feiyang talked about some of the economic improvement strategies implemented by the United States in his previous life, Powell was nothing, and Greenspan, the chairman of the Federal Reserve, had already held his breath.
He was afraid that if he exhaled a little louder, it would affect Yi Feiyang's speech.
Looking around again, at the beginning, the politicians thought that this young boy was talking nonsense without knowing the bounds of the world. However, as Yi Feiyang's words became faster and faster and closer to reality, the politicians couldn't help it.
Everyone gathered around and listened to Yi Feiyang's speech with great interest. Occasionally, someone would ask one or two questions, and Yi Feiyang would answer them with some information he knew in his previous life. Gradually, everyone began to look at him, as if Yi Feiyang was at this moment.
Feiyang is the star standing on the podium, shining brightly and attracting everyone's attention.
Not far away, Hilary, who was talking to her friends, suddenly felt that something was wrong with the surrounding situation. People were walking towards Yi Feiyang... Look at Yi Feiyang again, standing among the crowd and talking, looking extremely...
confidently.
"No way, how could this happen?" Hillary was speechless.
At this time, Abbas and Cameron were even more speechless than Hillary. Why didn't they expect that Yi Feiyang would instantly become the star of the entire charity party? Especially Cameron. If he hadn't treated Yi Feiyang well before,
In his eyes, now, he has experienced the power of Yi Feiyang, to be precise, Yi Feiyang's incredible communication skills. Abbas is right, this Chinese Yi is not a simple person, but no matter how powerful his communication skills are,
What's the use? No one can break the record I set!
Yi Feiyang's excellence made Hathaway feel happy and uneasy in her heart. She was happy because Yi Feiyang was so great and she was proud of him as her girlfriend, but she was uneasy because she felt that the better Yi Feiyang was, the better she would be.
The further away from him, didn't you see that the noble ladies at the banquet, as well as the rich ladies, and the wealthy ladies have already looked at Yi Feiyang with admiration?
Let’s talk about Yi Feiyang. When he came back from talking and saw the people around him, as well as the stunned Greenspan and the surprised Powell, Yi Feiyang knew that he had said too much, and it was accurate.
In other words, too many secrets have been revealed.
If what Yi Feiyang said just now was particularly shocking, then just look at Greenspan's reaction.
Before Yi Feiyang could find an excuse to escape, the old man Greenspan couldn't help but take the initiative to invite: "Hey, Yi, what you just said is the most incisive statement I have ever heard. Yes, the U.S. economy is
In this way, you have completely touched its lifeblood, especially the few countermeasures you mentioned. God, although they are a bit fanciful, they seem to be very practical, so I hope you can accept my invitation and come to my home to discuss it in detail.
?”
What are you doing? The boss of the Federal Reserve invited Yi Feiyang to their home?
Almost everyone around thought they heard it wrong.
You know, the home of the Fed boss is not something that ordinary people can enter, and very few people are invited by him, especially those who are elite in the business world. They almost try their best not to get in. But now, the boss actually invites people on his own initiative.
, and he is still a young Chinese guy!
Yi Feiyang was also taken aback by Greenspan's invitation. Come on, what he just said was just some superficial information he heard in his previous life. He didn't know anything about what he did. If he really went, what would he do?
Don’t reveal your secret right away.
Yi Feiyang was very self-aware, knowing that he had shaken out the bottom of the pot and all the rice, and that there was nothing left in his stomach, so he immediately acted modest and cautious, and politely declined: "Oh no, my dear.
Mr. Greenspan, I was just talking casually. In fact, I don’t know anything about economics. Yes, that’s it. So unfortunately, I can’t accept your invitation!”
Uproar!
Refuse, this Chinese young man actually refused the invitation of the Fed boss. He is so impressive. Who is he? Who is he?!
Yi Feiyang is telling the truth, but in the eyes of others, he is being modest, cautious, and pretending to be high-profile. Chinese people like to play this kind of trick!
Yi Feiyang is so miserable, no one believes him when he tells the truth.
Just when the situation was embarrassing, the charity auction finally started, everyone became quiet, and those who were originally surrounding Yi Feiyang dispersed.
