Chapter 247. [Entertainment Tyrant](1/2)
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?
