After reading the resume, Nan Yi started to read the script.

After reading his half of the script, Nan Yi and Nan Ruobing exchanged ideas, and the rest of the day was spent reading the script.

When it was time for dinner, Nan Yi and Nan Ruopeng went to Mr. Chow, a Chinese restaurant at No. 344 Camden in Beverly Hills. This is a very famous Chinese restaurant in London. In the 1970s,

A branch was opened here, and the owner is the son of Peking Opera master Zhou Xinfang.

The food here has also been improved by Westernization, which is different from traditional Chinese food. However, I have to say that the improvement is good, and the combination of Chinese and Western food has not lost the charm of Chinese food.

Moreover, the main focus is Cantonese cuisine, and the light taste is easy for foreigners to accept.

There were many Hollywood celebrities coming here to eat. Nan Yi took a quick glance and saw a few familiar characters.

For example, the young girl next to her is none other than Brooke Shields, who is currently popular in Hollywood, and is also the youth idol of many girls in the country. In Nan Yi's last life, this name was taken from the Internet when Michael Jackson died.

As seen in the news, who gave her the identity of Jackson's ex-girlfriend.

However, it doesn’t matter if you don’t recognize him now. You can often see his photos in window advertisements on the street and in newspapers and magazines.

In addition to her, Nanyi also saw Cynthia Gibb, Melissa Gilbert, and Kelly Green, all of whom are young idols who have just debuted.

Well, Nan Yi is just familiar with his face, but Nan Ruobing is more familiar with them and can call them by their names. There are always public figures he likes in every age group. These little actresses who are less than twenty years old,

They are exactly what Nan Ruoping likes at her age, and she will think they are cool.

Fortunately, Nan Ruobin didn't make any move to ask for autographs.

"Dad, tell me, can I make a movie?" Nan Ruobing, who was looking around, turned her head back and said to Nan Yi.

"Why do you want to make movies?"

"Isn't it cool for everyone to know me?"

"No, I think it would be a cool thing for someone to make a movie based on you, such as "The Devil Wears Prada", "Business Devil", and "The Great Rachel Nan"

some type of.

You only see their superficial beauty, but ignore the filthiness behind them. Dad will take you step by step to understand this real and dirty world.

To be able to reach the level where everyone is today, they must have to pay something, and this price must not be small, unless they are like her..."

Nan Yi signaled to Nan Ruobin a girl who had just walked in at the door of the restaurant, "Do you know her?"

"We know her. I've watched her "Golden Boy". Dad, is there any difference between her and others?" Nan Ruobing asked strangely.

"The difference is huge." Nan Yi pretended to be mysterious and said, "Let me tell you quietly, dad likes to look like this."

"Luanluoluo." Nan Ruoping made a face and said playfully: "Do you want me to help dad get the phone number? I will tell her that I am your sister."

Nan Yi smiled and said: "You are a kid, but you seem to have watched youth movies a lot. When I get back, I have to ask Scarlett what movies she took you to watch."

"What a great movie, all PG-13."

"Oh, next time I'll watch a G-rated [suitable for all ages] movie."

"From now on, don't I just watch whatever daddy watches? Dad, I will follow you from now on."

"Oh, I almost forgot."

Nan Yi thought to himself that he had to find a safe to lock up the video tapes he collected.

"Dad, you haven't said anything special about Phoebe Cates, except that you like her." The little girl asked.

Nan Yi picked up the fresh coconut juice on the table and took a sip, and said: "Her family background is not ordinary. Her father is a Laohui producer and a pioneer in television. Her mother is also very important in the entertainment industry. Her uncle Gil Burt Cates is a well-known director and producer, and he still has some respect here in Hollywood.

And her grandfather was a very successful businessman back then, and he was also the president of the Jewish Federation of New York, and he was quite prestigious among the Jews.

Having these connections will ensure that she will not be easily harmed by potential... harm in the circle."

"Are unspoken rules just unspoken rules? Dad, I know."

"Little girl, you mature too quickly, which caught dad off guard. Where did you hear this word?"

"Classmate, I have a classmate named Ben. His father is a shareholder of Coca-Cola and still works in Columbia. His father often takes him to Hollywood."

"A boy?"

"Yes, Dad, can't I play with boys?"

"Of course, what are you doing with him?"

"We didn't play anything. We just started a business together. We could have gotten a lot of signed photos of celebrities. I was responsible for selling them, and he and I split the money 50-50. Dad, I can sell them at high prices."

"Sold to classmates?"

"No, we go to other schools to sell them, mainly middle schools. They sell very well."

"Oh, besides making pocket money, what else do you get from selling signed photos?"

"What can I gain?" Nan Ruoping thought for a while and said, "Product channels are very important. Without Ben's channels, I wouldn't be able to do this business; there is also the star effect. Dad, I found that as long as you are a public figure, you can do things. It will all be easier.

If I am also a movie star, will it be easier to do business in the future? I can advertise for Tesco, so Tesco's business will be better."

"Well, your idea makes sense, but in fact you don't need to become a star yourself. As long as dad is willing, he can support a star at any time. Now, we also have a movie business, and this business requires the blessing of stars.

Dad will show you how to turn an amateur into a star and make them a tool for us to make money.

Ruobing, you just need to treat celebrities with a normal attitude. Maybe to ordinary people, they may seem superior, but to us, the Nan family, they are at most partners, and they are partners who are inferior to us in the cooperative relationship. ."

"Not a tool man?"

"Oh, don't learn some vocabulary blindly. There is no tool, only partners. Those who have always been like-minded are long-term close partners; those who have the same interests only for a period of time are short-term partners. The period of cooperation is called the honeymoon period.

Don’t think of treating others as tools. Respect your partners and opponents, which means respecting yourself.”

"oh."

"Are you full?"

"full."

"Then daddy will take you to the Hollywood Cinema. It's a very old cinema. You can see some old movies there."

With that said, Nan Yi paid the bill and took Nan Ruobing to the area near Hollywood Lake Park.

Although the Hollywood Cinema has a great name, it is not a large cinema. It only has a small auditorium that can accommodate less than thirty people at a time.

We don't do individual business, we only do bookings. There are many copies of old movies in the theater's film library, and some excellent movies are preserved here. When many directors want to find inspiration, they will come here to book a movie and watch them.

Some old videos.

The boss here is called Guan Hongsi, a Chinese born in the 1930s. It is said that he followed Huang Liushuang back then.

As for Anna May Wong, she was the first Chinese American to make a name for herself in Hollywood.

The outside world has mixed reviews about her, but the fact that she has not received higher education, but has paid for the tuition fees of seven siblings, so that they all can receive higher education, is worthy of Nan Yi's admiration.

In the 1920s, it was quite rare for Chinese people in Guangzhou to go to college. It was estimated that they could be counted on both hands and feet, but Huang Liushuang's Huang family accounted for seven at once.

As soon as I walked into the theater, the first thing I saw was a high platform that looked like a pawn shop, where a woman in her forties was sitting and taking a nap.

Nan Yi knocked on the high platform and woke Guan Hongsi up, "Hello, boss Guan, I'm Adam, I have a reservation."

Guan Hongsi flipped through a book and said, "Is it correct to make a reservation at 7:30?"

"Yes, that's me." Nan Yi nodded and said, "Boss Guan, do you have a copy of "Pansi Cave" here?"

"Pansi Cave" by Yin Mingzhu?" Guan Hongsi asked.

"Du Yu's "Pansi Cave"."

"It's the same thing, but I don't have it here. This film wasn't sold to the country back then, and I don't have the channels to collect it."

"That's such a pity." Nan Yi said regretfully.

Nan Yi has seen the restored version of "Pansi Cave", but the restored version is forty minutes shorter than the original version. He really wants to see the original version.

Regarding the film and television works of "Journey to the West", Nanyi himself most approves of "Pansi Cave", which is the most faithful to the ideas of the original work. As for "Journey to the West" which will be released in two years, let's give it a rest. It is a dime away from the original work.

There is no relationship, not even a human being.

"Dad, is "Pansi Cave" good to watch?"

"good."

Nan Yi's answer was very vague. Even if Guan Hongsi had a copy of "Pansi Cave" here, he didn't plan to take Nan Ruobing to watch it today. This film was banned not long after it was released in the 1920s, but with

A little bit colorful.

"Boss Guan, does "The Earth" have it?"

"There is this, do you want to see it?"

"Yes."

"What else should I watch? The time you reserved is enough to watch two movies."

"'Rat in Manhattan.'"

"This copy is also available. It is suitable for little girls to watch. I will help you find it. You can go to the cinema and wait. Which one will be shown first?"

"'Rat in Manhattan.'"

"OK."
