I used to think that the distance was very beautiful, but only when I got there did I realize that maybe you would gradually lose yourself.
Hollywood is actually a place like this. No matter what it is, most people in the entertainment industry think that Hollywood is the holy land of movies. But according to Ye Ming's understanding of Hollywood, a place like this doesn't seem to be.
It's as simple as everyone thinks.
In such a process, in fact, no matter how it came about, Hollywood is a more realistic place, and its relationship is only with interests. Of course, it may be inheritance in the name of art, and making money is covered up.
In the slogan of art, in Hollywood, profit is actually the ultimate goal.
In fact, no matter how he said it, on a question like this, it is really doubtful that this guy Emmerich said that he would give himself 200,000.
Of course, two hundred thousand is nothing to a director of Emmerich's level, but this kind of thing is worthy of others' suspicion. Therefore, Emmerich seems to be the kind of person who can understand Ye Ming from the other end of the phone.
The attitude of skepticism is very strong.
Therefore, he immediately explained: "Well, I know you are a little skeptical, but I didn't pay this money, right? The investors of [The Day After Hou] need to have a spokesperson in China to promote the day after tomorrow for them, so they selected
I asked you, and you did not regard the money as advertising fees, responsible for advertising [the day after tomorrow].
Therefore, you don’t have any obligation to take this kind of money, but it is just to help them hype up. Maybe they will use your fame to hype up, but it is not necessarily propaganda. Anyway, it is just propaganda [the day after tomorrow], of course you don’t
If you take this money, it doesn't actually prevent you from being used by them for speculation at this time."
These words made Ye Ming's heart beat for a while, thinking that he would be involved no matter what. Therefore, in such a situation, Ye Ming himself said very simply: "Then
OK, please send me the money. Does this prove that I will be selected?"
Since I have to do the publicity on my own behalf, it stands to reason that the possibility of choosing to play this role myself is very high.
However, Ye Ming's wish is beautiful, but the reality is cruel. No matter how he said it, on such a problem, Emmerich did not give him any face, but directly said
: "What are you thinking about, man, is there such a good thing?
This is just a reward for your publicity. You can also think of it as your red envelope, or our consumption. How do you put it in your words? One code equals one code. This matter is different from the choice of roles in the show.
Yes, therefore. Auditions are actually necessary. This is a rule in Hollywood. Although this rule may be a decoration, it is a rule after all. Auditions are still necessary. I will call you when you come for the audition."
Ye Ming knew that things would not be that simple. Giving money was one thing. Choosing who to play a role was indeed a little different in Hollywood. Therefore, on such a question, Ye Ming had no choice in this role.
There are too many entanglements on it.
When he heard the question about the audition, Ye Ming said without politeness at all: "The time for the audition has not been determined yet. I also have my own things to be busy with. Please, can't you be more professional and set a time?"
What? What if it happens to be that I have time? You have to know that I am not only an actor, but I also have a company and a website. There are so many things to do. You can’t just say that I will come over if you call me.
Bar?"
It seems that these words have worked after all. When Emmerich heard this, he may have realized that Ye Ming was different from other Chinese actors. Therefore, on such a question, he hesitated and said
: "In this case, if I call you a week in advance, there should be no problem. You know, God created the world in less than a week."
Seven days in advance, this is already very sincere. Therefore, on such an issue, Ye Ming did not bother much. He nodded and said happily: "There is definitely no problem in this way. Tell me in advance. I will
There is also a preparation time, don’t worry, I will definitely take care of things and go to the audition on time. Remember to deposit the 200,000 into my personal account."
These words surprised Emmerich. He said in surprise: "Ye, are you confused about this matter? If you use a personal account, the personal income tax will be very high. If you use a company account, the personal income tax will be very high.
If you use an account, the fee is relatively low. I suggest you use your own company’s account.”
Who knew that on such a matter, Ye Ming was also very reasonable and said: "Of course I am very clear about this matter, but as the CEO of the company, my personal income tax is paid by the company, and the Quantum Fund
Donations of several hundred million per year can be used to offset taxes and fees. Therefore, you said, it’s great that I don’t need to take a penny. How can I use a company account? It’s really troublesome. Use a personal account.”
When he met Ye Ming, a cunning guy, Emmerich actually felt helpless for a while. In such a matter, no matter how it was, Ye Ming's approach seemed to Emmerich,
They are all the most appropriate. In the United States, this is called reasonable tax avoidance. If it is within the scope of the law, these are very normal.
The lawyers at Quantum Fund earn millions in fees every year, and they do nothing else but think about this kind of thing.
It's just that Emmerich didn't expect that Ye Ming, a Chinese person, was so proficient in this method.
Therefore, at this time Emmerich smiled awkwardly and said: "As an American, I feel very ashamed that you, a Chinese, are familiar with using American tax laws. I also want my lawyer to do a good job."
After thinking about it, I personally think that what kind of avoidance is better. Okay, I will let someone clear your account, see you later."
This was a relatively unexpected phone call, and Ye Ming felt that the amount of money was very unexpected, but he received it with great peace of mind. After all, he said that he deserved such a thing.
However, he did not expect that this call was actually a relatively reasonable call. After all, Emmerich had contacted him and asked him to audition, so the call was not a big surprise.
But then, Ye Ming received a phone call. This phone call was quite strange because the person on the phone was called Michael Jackson.
Now Jackson is enjoying his career, and his status as a super superstar is as stable as Mount Tai. In the era of love records, Jackson was the undisputed king of pop music, sitting at the top of pop music.
If we are talking about the Emperor Superstar and there are people who share this title, then if we are talking about the King of Pop Music, this one belongs exclusively to Jackson. And in today's Internet age, Jackson is also the first to sell his music works online.
Crab people, and the food is quite delicious.
In fact, Ye Ming helped Jackson sell his music works online, helping Jackson get out of the debt crisis. This made Sony very unhappy. Jackson owned the copyright of the Beatles' music, so Sony had to give half of every penny it earned to Jackson.
, Therefore, Sony is very unhappy about such an issue. Regarding the child case, who is the mastermind behind it? Obviously, it is just that some people do it more covertly. But in the end, this matter
It didn't trip Jackson up, but it made Jackson and Ye Ming work more closely together.
Therefore, people at Sony were very unhappy about such a matter. They just said that they had no way to deal with Ye Ming. Therefore, they have temporarily ceased operations. At this time, it can be said that the most proud person in the entertainment industry is Jackson.
.
He called Ye Ming and said: "Ye, I have nothing to do recently. I want to hear your opinion. Do you think I should make a movie, shoot a few commercials for fun, or go on a trip for a while? But... what if?
When you go on a trip, don’t be as unlucky as you, just because you encounter some horrible incident.”
Ye Ming went to the United States to film Running Brothers, and this time it involved a big thing. Therefore, at this time, even Jackson, who said he was not very concerned about current political news, could not have known about 911.
Maybe you don't know Ye Ming's heroic actions in this terrorist incident. Of course, Jackson is not willing to encounter such a thing. He thinks that he does not have Ye Ming's ability.
Among his friends, there were not many who could listen to opinions casually, and Ye Ming happened to be one of them. Therefore, on such a question, he directly called Ye Ming to ask about the situation.
Ye Ming thought for a while and suddenly thought of a question. If Jackson was invited to join Running Man, even if it was just a guest role, it would be very exciting. This time, Jackson is himself
He came up against the gun. If he didn't come to ask for his opinion, maybe he didn't have the intention. After all, Jackson's character was not willing to participate in this kind of game show.
But now, Ye Ming thought of such an idea, and immediately realized that if such a thing was true, it would definitely be a sensation, not only for the Chinese entertainment industry, but also for the Asia-Pacific, and even
It means that it has a sensational effect on the entertainment industry around the world. The King of Pop Music, Michael Jackson, joined this group, brother, it is incredible to think about it.
Ye Ming immediately said: "Well, if you really don't have anything special and certain to do, then I have a suggestion. I am doing a show here called Running Brothers. It is a very determined program.
I hope you can come and play the show if you have time. This is a game show, not an interview type, but a game type."
Jackson hesitated for a moment. He did not expect that Ye Ming would give such an answer. This surprised him. Therefore, on such a question, Jackson hesitated and said: "Run, brother, the game
Can you explain it to me in detail? You know, I am relatively unfamiliar with your Chinese programs, and I am relatively unfamiliar with even American programs."
This is a fact. For a king of kings like Jackson to participate in a game show, it would be a complete loss of status. To be able to invite the king of pop music here is definitely a task of dinosaur level difficulty.
Ye Ming asked and said: "If you want to explain, you can think of this program as a game version of a novel like "Send a Letter to Garcia", in which you get the final result by completing some tasks.
Victory is about running, being healthy, and improving. Of course, if you come, the form of participation can be adjusted according to your requirements."
Jackson, as the King of Pop Music, actually has such rights. If he can come, it will be a huge publicity for the Running Brothers.
I have to say that Ye Ming's explanation is actually quite wonderful. "Send a Letter to Garcia" is a very popular novel in Europe and the United States. Of course, this novel is based on real history.
Anyway, very few people in Europe and America don't know this novel. It can be said that as long as they can read, they all know this novel. This is a very ambitious novel.
Therefore, if we use this form to explain the program format of Running Brothers, although it is a bit general, it cannot be said to be incorrect. And such an explanation is actually relatively fresh for Jackson.
.
Therefore, Jackson thought about it carefully and pondered for a while. Anyway, there is nothing going on with the album recently. If you want to go to China to play, it is also a good choice. China is a very charming place. Of course, the people of China
, are also very mysterious people, such as Ye Ming.
Therefore, Jackson finally said: "Okay, I will go there in three days, is there no problem?"
Three days is of course Jackson's preparation time, and of course it is also the preparation time for Ye Ming. Jackson is so willful that he said he was participating in a game show and immediately decided to participate.
Of course, this has a lot to do with his belief in Ye Ming. It can be said that if it weren't for Ye Ming's invitation, it would be impossible for Jackson to agree to such a thing.
Ye Ming closed the phone and snapped his fingers. He was such a genius that he was able to trick Jackson into entering.
