La's book signing was over, Wu Jianye's hands were paralyzed from exhaustion, and his wrists were in severe pain.
The Chinese students who were about to attend the party suggested finding a Chinese restaurant. Wu Jianye asked if there were any good recommendations here. As a result, several Chinese students looked at each other and had no idea.
However, Hong Huang said that he knew a place that was absolutely authentic, which gave Wu Jianye a new understanding of Hong Huang's communication skills.
However, the place was a bit far away from where Wu Jianye was signing books. Everyone took a few taxis there. When they arrived at the place, Wu Jianye knew that most of the students were poor, so he waited at the place and paid the taxi fare. .
Hong Huang walked into the hotel and seemed to be familiar with the boss. He didn't even need to be greeted by the boss here and led everyone directly to a private room.
When everyone was waiting for Wu Jianye, they had already known each other, so there was no sense of unfamiliarity at this time. In addition, they were all young people, so there was no restraint when chatting, but most of them were talking. The difference between domestic and North American.
Through observation, Wu Jianye discovered that among these people, Hong Huang and Zun Long were the most accepting of this distinction. Even Chen Chong, who later became an American citizen, was not used to it at this time.
"Yezi, I'm really convinced by you. In the United States, I also know some writers from our country, but they basically write about things in our country. No one can write such things like you. The authentic American story came out. If you hadn’t told me, I would have thought you were a Chinese born in America!”
Hong Huang stopped calling Wu Jianye by his name at this time. Like his old friend for many years, he called Wu Jianyezi!
Wu Jianye smiled: "I'm lucky too. I wrote a random book. I didn't expect that Lao Mei would like it so much!"
"You are being modest, this is not good!" Hong Huang continued to say carelessly.
Wu Jianye smiled and said nothing.
The dishes were served soon after. These people, who had spent a lot of time in the United States, were immediately attracted by the food in their hometown and started eating immediately.
"Lao Hong, the place you introduced is really good. It's different from other Chinese restaurants. It's so sweet that I almost doubt my life!" someone laughed.
"That's natural, no matter who introduced this place!" Hong Huang said with a proud smile.
As the dinner progressed, Wu Jianye gradually discovered that although he was still the centerpiece of the dinner, everyone asked Wu Jianye how he came up with the idea of writing this book, the contents of the discussion, and some asked Wu Jianye about making movies. Through the chat just now, everyone already knows that Wu Jianye is not only a student at Yanjing Film Academy, but also starred in two movies.
At the same time, a small number of people started chatting with Hong Huang as the center.
Chen Chong and Zun Long were sitting in the corner chatting, and from time to time they would chat with Wu Jianye about the development of domestic films. After learning that Wu Jianye had already filmed two films, they talked more about domestic and American films. Cultural differences.
Although Hong Huang still had to deal with other people's inquiries, she still chatted more with Wu Jianye, wanting to know the current situation in Yanjing. She had not been back for many years.
However, through chatting soon, Wu Jianye discovered that the best among this group of people were Hong Huang and Zun Long, but the others were actually living a miserable life. The discrimination they received while working was Their eternal topic.
Some people drank too much and cried bitterly. I don’t know what they were crying about. Anyway, by the end of the drink, these bitter students regarded this place as a complaint gathering. Wu Jianye did not stop this group. Although people were talking about how much they had suffered, no one said they regretted it.
When Wu Jianye asked them whether they planned to return to China or stay in North America after graduation, there was silence for a while.
"Go back, tmd, I have to go back no matter what, I've had enough of the anger of these foreign devils!" someone said angrily.
"I won't go back. Although it's harder now, I can find a job after I graduate. It's better to stay here than go back!" Some people also said they won't go back!
Of course, most of them are still waiting and watching, without expressing their thoughts.
After the party, some people went back to their schools. On the contrary, Hong Huang seemed to have not drunk enough, so he dragged Wu Jianye, Chen Chong and others to go to the bar to sit.
Chen Chong originally didn't want to go, but he couldn't stand Hong Huang's enthusiasm and had no choice in the end. Zunlong was pulled over by Wu Jianye.
The four of them were led by Hong Huang to a bar.
"This is the best bar in LA. When I came to LA in the past, I would come here to sit. There are many Hollywood stars here. Safety is their biggest feature!" Hong Huang saw that Chen Chong was a little nervous and explained to her. road.
Zunlong nodded and said, "I've heard about this place, it's really good!"
Hong Huang smiled and said to Wu Jianye: "Yezi, you spent money at the restaurant just now, but you can't rob it from me when you get here!"
Wu Jianye spread his hands: "That's good!"
Seeing Hong Huang skillfully asking the bartender for drinks, Wu Jianye knew that Hong Huang was indeed familiar with this place, and the four of them came to a booth.
"After a while, there will be a band singing here. They are actually selling their songs, hoping to win the favor of the record company. However, the management of the record company does come here often. Those buddies are actually here to seek hope!" Hong Huang said. The three of them continued to introduce the situation here.
"By the way, is there such a bar in China?" Hong Huang asked curiously.
"What do you think?" Wu Jianye laughed.
"It's boring, but don't worry. When I get rich in the future, I will have to open a bar like this in Yanjing when I go back. Let singers from all over the country come to sing. By then, I will set up a record company and sign them all. I am the owner of the largest record company in China!" Hong Huang said proudly.
Chen Chong smiled and said: "How old are you? You are my sister. I am my sister."
"You are ambitious but not young. Beauty, come and give me a smile!" Hong Huang was obviously happy and started teasing Chen Chong.
Seeing the two people having fun, Wu Jianye and Zunlong smiled and clinked their glasses, but Wu Jianye was moved by Hong Huang's suggestion.
If the domestic entertainment industry wants to develop, it is definitely not enough to rely solely on the film industry. It should develop in an all-round way, including television and music.
Even decades later, domestic people always have an inexplicable admiration for foreign awards. They think that various foreign awards are so high-end. Anyone who wins a foreign award will be swarmed with reports. At the same time, A number of stars were born who switched from export to domestic sales, which is awkward to watch.
China Entertainment should be more than just movies!
The four of them sat together, drank and chatted, and sure enough, a band appeared on the stage soon, with guitars, basses, and drummers, and all kinds of bands performed on the stage.
Pop, blues, rock, and country music also appeared one after another.
When singing passionately, Hong Huang even twisted his body on the dance floor with a group of black and white men, but the image was a bit lacking...
Just like a small barrel...
The four of them drank until early in the morning. Zunlong and Chen Chong both had their own places to stay, and Hong Huang also booked a room in the hotel early.
The next day, after Wu Jianye met Linda, he asked: "How much does it cost to release an album in the United States?"
