Chapter 180 Carl - The Second Ancestor's Sorrow

(Okay, I'll just complain about the topic first. First of all, this is a chapter that looks like a supporting role in Xihuan. Secondly, it reminds everyone of the slim cat, who is always bullied by the bad guy, Bissi? Well, the complaint is over. Let's talk about the serious business, because it's a novel, this chapter has changed the actual situation. For example, in this chapter, Universal Pictures' ownership is still in the hands of the Lemmer family, and Blair's survival range has been moved back by nearly a century. Novels are novels. Readers who have studied Hollywood and world film history, please don't be serious.)

In February, the morning in Los Angeles was even a lightly cool feeling of mixing the exhaust of the car. With the purple slanted neck sweater that Lin Shishi knitted for him, Wang Qibu, who was drinking the most authentic Blue Mountain coffee on the balcony outside the suite, while browsing the itinerary that Rock Will mentioned last night, while integrating himself into this ordinary morning in Los Angeles against the backdrop of the morning sun. It was peaceful and quiet. Only at such a time can Wang Qibu unconsciously exude the unique charm of his mature soul.

"That guy Locke called and said that he would arrive at the hotel in half an hour. What is our itinerary today?" Yue Xiaochen, who took a croissant from the table in front of Wang Qibu, and stuffed it into his mouth, swallowed it. As for the itinerary in Wang Qibu's hand, it was driven out to the hotel at midnight yesterday, so it was delivered to Wang Qibu with breakfast. After all, this is not a secret. I am afraid that even the lowest-level commercial spies will not be interested. I want to declare again that this is the United States and not China. If it is China, then as long as it is about Wang Qibu, it is actually a secret (well, I think of a very loving terminal when I say this; Xiao Ming (

Is it Xiao Ming again?) and Xiao Gang were both dissatisfied with the leaders of a certain country, so they made an appointment to go to the world's largest square to curse. Xiao Ming shouted, xxx, I'm so damn! Then Xiao Gang also shouted, xxx is a big j8! Then under the heroic power of my police officer, the two were immediately arrested. During the trial, Xiao Ming was just educated in the police station and released it. Xiao Gang was sentenced to death. After learning the result of the trial, Xiao Gang was dissatisfied and thought why Xiao Ming scolded him more ruthlessly than him, but he was just educated, but he was sentenced to death. The relevant personnel explained to Xiao Gang; Xiao Ming's behavior was just inappropriate behavior in public, and your behavior was indeed leaking. The shooting was not unfair.).

"In the morning, we have to meet the boss of Universal Pictures and talk about the possibility of cooperation. After all, they have a big brand in Hollywood, and we are not familiar with the land, and it will be difficult for us to find a local snake. Considering that Americans do not have this kind of etiquette, we have to make lunch by ourselves. In the afternoon, we have to attend a cocktail party that gathers all over the Los Angeles celebrities in the evening. Well, you are not the same as you can catch up with the cocktail party. In fact, these guys have a similar rule every now and then.

The model's drink party came out. The reason can be a company adding a partner, a certain writer's new book sales celebration, or a celebrity's father died. In short, this is almost a normal thing." Wang Qibu, who was drinking coffee safely, said. At this time, Los Angeles was in a factory where a worker had already gone to work, white-collar workers were still squatting at home, and the students had not yet woken up, so they were catering to Wang Qibu's safety. In the poet's way of writing, he safely made the whole city.

"Go to Universal Pictures? If I remember correctly, that guy Locke jumped out of the nest. I think this is not these blue-eyed monsters (it seems that a god Zongheng wrote these words, who came from? Why can't I remember it? Forget it, Fang Zheng will explode his sooner or later.) He is very uncultured and polite to not know the problem of our lunch, but he will not see us at all, right?" Yue Xiaochen, who has some understanding of Wang Qibu's commercial empire, said. In fact, this is not a simple joke. In his understanding, the situation is, and it should be like this.

"Hey! Actually, as a Chinese who has never been abroad, I will not be surprised at all if you have this idea. After all, for many years, the general manager of the Chinese have always despised the betrayal of the boss. If you go far, you can go back to Mr. Kong. Are you unfaithful? In this way, the ethics of Chinese people are really not a little ahead of these non-national barbarians. So, if you change jobs in China, don't talk about how others despise them, first of all, they will be condemned by the so-called conscience. But this is not the case in the United States. In fact, the American business culture is quite similar to the growth model of banyan trees. A single tree is a forest. If you look carefully at the development history of American business, you will

You will find that many representative companies in an industry are derived from each of them. A large company, from partners to ordinary workers, and after resigning, they work alone, and then develop into a company that is quite large compared to the previous company. There are too many cases in this land. It is not surprising, whether it is used to it, or Americans have developed a vision of looking at problems from a long-term perspective. Anyway, the situation you are worried about will not happen." Put down the empty cup, Wang Qibu said. It does not contain much national sentiment, but the ease of looking at it with a little joke. Yes, it is ease. And the root of ease may be absolute confidence.

"Are you so sure? So you already know the helmsman of Universal Pictures now, right?" Because of age, Yue Xiaochen also brought a little natural pride, pride, and a little bit of asking for credit and offering treasures when he said this.

"Haha, it seems that you asked Li Luoge's power in Los Angeles to investigate Little Carl, right? I can only say thank you for your intentions, but I think there is something in your information, and I should have it in my head. Well, or to be more precise, I may only know more than that information." This young man's mentality made Wang Qibu laugh, and Wang Qibu said to Yue Xiaochen without any unexpected expression.

"Boy, hasn't anyone told you that you are arrogant recently?" Wang Qibu's attitude made Yue Xiaochen feel unhappy immediately. It was half because of the failure of the treasure offering plan, and half because Wang Qibu's appearance was really arrogant.

"Karl Lemmer, well, the standard name should be added with a small word before his name, because his father, Carl Lemmer, is the founder of Universal Pictures. The existence of the founding ancestor in the industry is always more respectable and can more conceal the glory of even the outstanding second-generation ancestor. Just like do you know who Ogedei is?" Wang Qibu asked.

"It sounds familiar, but I don't remember what it is." Yue Xiaochen, who thought for a while, said honestly, but still couldn't remember the background of this character for a while.

"Genghis Khan's son, Taizong of the Yuan Dynasty. Although he was a little cold-blooded and a little bastard after thirteen years (don't argue with me about whether the rulers of the Yuan Dynasty emperors still have humanity. In fact, if I was asked to travel back to the Yuan Dynasty with an infinite bullet, even if I was fighting for the shrinking of China's territory, I would have to destroy the whole family of murderers like Genghis Khan, without leaving any one!), but under his rule, China's territory could still maintain basic stability at that time, as long as China was so large, it could still maintain basic stability!).

Determine. You should know that this was already very difficult in that era. Look, even a guy like you who knows a little about history can't remember him for a moment. This is the so-called second-generation tragedy. In fact, Little Carl Lemmer is more ambitious than his father. He not only wants to defend his territory, but also wants to open a border. Little Carl Lemmer has great ambitions. He not only persuaded his father to start buying and building cinemas, but also in major cities in the United States where every inch of land is valuable.

The bustling area of ​​the world, and also entered the big production movies, spending money on one movie. In addition to the big and bad movie "Future Water World", the other recent movies of Universal Pictures are indeed good, but the box office is so painful. Alas, in short, Universal is no longer like making movies now, and it is more like the increasingly crazy raising bets of Carl, a prodigal child. I think even if the Lemmer family has a big family, if you go like this for two to three years, if you try this way,

If the bank would definitely come to ask for loans. And I think Carl knew this, which is the biggest reason why he would agree to see us. This guy is almost mad." After Wang Qibu finished speaking, he stood up and walked into the room, because his humble mouth would not affect his cultivation. The six senses were already far beyond ordinary people. He was slightly ahead of Yue Xiaochen and he could already feel the footsteps outside the corridor. If his memory system was not wrong, then Rock Will who came to pick him up.

...

Above the spray group surrounded by guardrails, there is a hollow miniature earth. At that moment, the hollow miniature earth surrounded by Universalpicture. If you like movies, those who like Hollywood can immediately hear such a description. Universal Pictures. This was officially established in 1912 and ranked second among the eight major Hollywood companies. It became the most powerful film company in Hollywood at the founding stage.

In the nearly one hundred years since its establishment, Universal Studios has produced and released countless classic movies; it reveals the "Schindler List" that massacred Jews in Germany during World War II, the Barbie Doll movie series that awakens the memories of generations, the classic horror movie "Hannibal" series and the pure American ethical comedy such as "Meeting the Father-in-law". In addition, there are "Fast and Furious" and "Agent Bean". In short, Universal's myth is based on this one after another.

The classics were piled up. At this moment, Wang Qibu sat in the reception room of Universal Pictures President Carl Lemmerer. It had been ten minutes since he walked into this luxuriously decorated room. Rock Will was a little embarrassed to accompany him. A blonde beauty who should be Secretary Carl Lemmerer first found an excuse for her boss that Wang Qibu seemed a bit clumsy, and then stood beside Wang Qibu, looking like she was waiting for instructions.

After taking a look at the first ultra-thin silver Patek Philippe with a calendar that had been processed in the famous craftsman's workshop, Wang Qibu turned around and gave the blonde beauty standing there a smile that made her lose her mind, and then said in a Manhattan tone that was no longer authentic and unsuccessful, "Rella, can you please help me inform you of the idiot boss who is busy with a divorce lawsuit with his second wife and is having an affair with the wife of Congressman James. If he doesn't show up within five minutes, will I leave this news?"

"..." Because of his first contact with Wang Qibu and his first time, Rilla, who was not used to this guy's way of talking, didn't know what he should say for a while. However, under the comment that Wang Qibu's sharp but warm and contradictory, he would not give people this feeling, he said in a strange way, "Okay. I'll inform him now." When he turned around and went out, Rilla, whose heart was beating violently, had completely forgotten Carl Lemmer's instructions for King Qibu for an hour, and when he was not old, he changed his job. Humph, this girl who also came to Los Angeles from New York felt that she was in love.

"king, Carl's personality is like this. Sorry, I should have communicated with you before coming. This is my mistake." After Rilla went out, Locke Will explained to Wang Qibu guiltily. Note: The strong background of his partner in China, he knew that it was natural that he could not stand the rude treatment of American businessmen.

Wang Qibu did wave his hand and smiled, "This has nothing to do with you. Just as I said to the charming secretary just now, Carl Lemmer seems to be more stupid than I thought before. Haha, you can't be so nervous. The one who should be nervous now should be him. Don't you think that the affair between him and the congressman's wife I just said was just a simple American humor, right? That's true!"

"Really, but how did you know?" Locke Will said in surprise, but then laughed again. It seemed that he was still habitually treating Wang Qibu as an ordinary person. It was not his fault. After all, China is far away for him and it was not because he had been there twice and had strengthened Wang Qibu's partner. It was not geographical, but more about thinking.

...

Just after Ruila went out, a 3-minute and fifty-three-second period, a hypocritical foreigner who was described as a sanctuary walked into the reception room. The expensive leather shoes and messy but wanted to hide them would make Wang Qibu absolutely funny.

"Wow, wow, wow, wow, LOK! I didn't expect that one day you would appear in this room as a guest. You know, I still keep your office." After a pretentious but iconic American conversation, I chose to ignore Wang Qibu Carl Lemel Lock Will. And Wang Qibu had no intention of standing up at all. This discovery made Carl Lemel depressed all of a sudden.

"Hello, Carl, please allow me to introduce you to you. This is Seven's president, my partner king." Locke Will, who did not interact with Carl Lemmer in exaggerated greetings, said. The sentence "butt determines thinking" is not limited to China. This scene proves that it is a universal truth.

"Oh." It was also an artificial sound that expressed surprise. Carl Lemmer was just like Wang Qibu sitting steadily on the sofa. He walked away at a speed much slower than usual, except for continuing to sing the ending of "Oh". Of course, he was unwilling to say anything. After all, whether in Eastern or Western society, he was talking to a sitting person, he had some meaning of reporting. So, looking at Wang Qibu, who was obviously in a trend of standing up but was reluctant to stand up for a long time, Carl Lemmer's depression can be imagined. Can he vomit blood? If he can't, he can only swallow the blood into his stomach.

Seeing that Karl Lemmer was feeling uncomfortable and had a bad interest, Wang Qibu was already laughing in his heart. Xiaobian, let you play this game with me. Damn, about ten thousand people, in terms of grasping, you guys are no match for the Chinese even if you practice for another thousand years. And just when Karl Lemmer was extremely uncomfortable, the first meeting between the two sides was about to end with a failure, Wang Qibu stood up and stepped forward to hold the hand of Carl Lemmer who was walking slowly, and then said formally, "Hello, Mr. Lemmer. I am Wang Qibu, the president of Seven. Thank you very much for helping us cultivate outstanding talents like Locke. So, I am very happy to see you!"

The blood that was about to be sprayed out was definitely already suffocated. Carl Lemmer, who had definitely had internal injuries, heard Wang Qibu's greetings that would make people feel very uncomfortable no matter what, he could only endure everything, and even more said in inertia, "Carle Lemmer, Mr. King, I am also very happy to see you."

Wang Qibu laughed in his heart. This guy was talking lies with his eyes open.
