I just want to copy books quietly

"Duan, I listened to your new single. Amazing!"

"Thank you! I love that song too."

"Duan, I think you can win the grand prize tomorrow night. Baby Claire, I'm not saying your songs are bad, it's just that you're unlucky. Duan's album this year is amazing."

Claire smiled: "I don't mind if I lose to Duan. But I believe that I will get the big prize sooner or later."

"Of course." Duan Xiaochen took her hand affectionately, "Maybe this year's laurels will be taken away by you. Your songs are also great!"

"By the way, Duan, why don't you introduce this handsome man beside you to us? I think he should be your mysterious boyfriend!" After a while of pleasantries, someone finally asked.

"He is indeed my boyfriend!" Duan Xiaochen laughed.

At that moment, a trace of unnaturalness flashed in the eyes of several male stars.

"But he is not mysterious!" Duan Xiaochen added.

A male star with black curly hair, deep and well-shaped features, slightly dark skin, and a typical Mediterranean appearance shrugged, "He is very mysterious. No one here knows him. Is he an outsider?"

"Oh, no, strictly speaking, he is not an outsider," Claire laughed loudly, "Chris, haven't you always wanted to get the autograph of the author of A Song of Ice and Fire?"

The curly-haired male star was taken aback and blinked quickly, "Sorry, you are Hemingway? Oh, sorry, I'm so rude. I mean, I admire you very much! Your novel is great! You wrote it for Duan Those songs are also the most outstanding works in the music scene in recent years! It's an honor to meet you!"

The word he used was "honor", the original text is "honor" in English.

Using this word means more formal and solemn.

He regards Du Caige as a person with a higher status than him.

Of course the same is true.

Due to having a camera memory and paying more attention to entertainers in the entertainment industry, Du Caige already knows a lot of people now.

This handsome Chris, named Cristo Esposito, is 36 years old. He is a descendant of the Olive Country and is said to be Collidio's cousin.

He is a famous movie star and has been nominated twice for Oscar for Best Actor, but he has never won the award.

In addition, he won an Emmy Award for Best Actor and a Golden Globe Award for Best Actor.

Although he is not an Oscar winner, his status is still quite high.

Du Caige has seen his movies, and his acting skills are also extraordinary.

If he was like Al Pacino, supported by good works like "The Godfather", "Scent of a Woman" and "The Wire", he would have won the title of Oscar winner long ago.

Du Caige took a step forward and said with a smile, "The honor is mine."

His answer is also more polite, not arrogant.

Chris looks a little flattered.

The name "Hemingway" is not particularly famous in the Stars and Stripes, at least it is far less famous than Duan Xiaochen.

But this is because Hemingway has never been to the Stars and Stripes before, even when "A Song of Ice and Fire" was released, Hemingway did not come in person.

Naturally, the media in the Stars and Stripes would not report on such a person.

And those who really know know the weight of this name.

Again, in the entertainment industry, the most glamorous entertainers, including actors, singers, etc., are actually at the bottom of the food chain.

And content creators, excellent songwriters, screenwriters, and directors are predators in this circle.

Artists can only bow their heads in front of these content creators unless they reach the level of actor, actress, queen, and singer.

At the top of the entertainment industry is capital.

No matter how famous an artist is, they are just playthings of capital.

If it can make money for capital, it may be treated well, just like a pure-blooded pet.

If you can't, or you don't want to earn money for capital... then you may be played miserably.

On Earth, those Korean actresses who died miserably have already exposed some shady scenes in the Korean entertainment industry with their lives, but is it useful?

They can't shake the capital at all.

And how much darkness is hidden in those places that have not been revealed?

Chris respects Hemingway, not only because Hemingway is a high-quality content creator, but also because he understands that Hemingway himself is a billionaire.

This is what Godlin Press mentioned when promoting "A Song of Ice and Fire": This is a book written by a billionaire!

Hemingway is the major shareholder of a company with a market capitalization of hundreds of billions, and is worth more than tens of billions of dollars.

Such a billionaire writes books for you out of true love and generates electricity for love. Don’t miss it!

Many people bought a copy of "A Song of Ice and Fire" dubiously because of this gimmick. They just wanted to see how the thinking of billionaires was different from that of ordinary people.

The result is "really fragrant".

There is a joke circulating on the Internet: At the beginning, there was a fantasy writer on the New York Times bestseller list. After "A Song of Ice and Fire" continued to dominate the list, he said sourly at a writers' party:

Hemingway is so rich, why did he come to write a book and compete with us for jobs?Why does a fantasy novel continuously win the weekly crown on the bestseller list? Maybe it was paid for.Anyway, he is so rich, writing books is not for making money, but for fame.

But after all, he couldn't hold back anymore, and asked someone to borrow a copy of "A Song of Ice and Fire" to read.

At the next party, someone asked him again. After a long silence, he sighed and said, "I don't know if Hemingway has time to write a book because he runs the company? It would be bad if he was affected by mundane things. Fantasy novels The fiction genre has been around for decades, and while there are many good ones, there hasn’t been a truly great one. Now that the fantasy market has stagnated a bit, we desperately need a few truly great fantasy novels. Drive the development of the entire fantasy novel market. I hope Hemingway can maintain the standard and complete this great work."

Whether this joke is true or not is irrelevant.

There is no need to delve into it.

In short, the name "Hemingway" is only a minor celebrity to ordinary people in the Stars and Stripes.

A writer, songwriter, and billionaire who can't do anything, has never appeared on the soil of the Stars and Stripes, and is not worthy of the attention of the great and proud Stars and Stripes.

But for people in the cultural and entertainment circles, "Hemingway" is a name that cannot be ignored!

Not only did Chris have great respect for Du Caige, but the other stars also put away their previous frivolous and joking attitudes. Obviously, they had heard of Hemingway's name a little, and they didn't dare to be too presumptuous.

A star may dare to speak out, quarrel, even insult, tear, and shake his fist in front of a star who is bigger than himself.

But never dare to do this in front of billionaires.

Because, a star who is bigger than him actually has nothing to do with him.

And billionaires can block him.

Chapter 612 Everyone Wants To See Him

After chatting with these people, Duan Xiaochen took Du Caige's hand and continued walking inside.

Du Caige lowered his voice and laughed, "It seems that you are already in the entertainment circle of the Stars and Stripes."

Duan Xiaochen said in a low voice: "No way, I'm new here, so it's very difficult to get along in this circle."

"They all treat you very well and are very friendly. You also seem to be talking to them naturally, like a queen."

Duan Xiaochen chuckled lightly: "Friendliness is just superficial. In fact, this is what happens in this circle. On the surface, of course everyone loves you and me, but I don't know how to fight behind the scenes."

He also said: "When I first came to the Stars and Stripes to develop, I was actually very nervous, apprehensive, and worried about being excluded. Later, I found out that they are no different from those stars in our country. The male stars are all equally lustful, and the female stars are all the same. I also like to fight. Later, I didn't take them seriously, and my mentality was naturally peaceful."

"Lust?" Du Caige frowned.

Duan Xiaochen was very satisfied with his lover's nervousness towards him, and laughed with two dimples: "Don't worry, I won't give anyone else any chance to take advantage of."

They continued to walk in, and from time to time, big-name celebrities who Du Caige could name came up to greet them.

Moreover, the visitor already knew Du Caige's identity, so he took the initiative to say hello: "Hey, Hemingway, you are here too, Colidio will be very happy!"

This is no exaggeration.

Imagine that Elon Musk came to Christopher Nolan's party, and the latter definitely felt radiant and radiant.

As for why they knew Du Caige's identity... Now that social software is so developed, Christo Esposito and others who met Du Caige had already informed other celebrities.

Then spread it to ten, ten to hundreds, and almost everyone at the party knew about it.

Even some of the people who weren't at the party found out.

……

In an Aztec-style restaurant, a woman with dark skin, a perfect figure, and a charming smile looked down at her mobile phone and immediately said, "Carl, Hemingway appeared at Colidio's party! Damn, that stupid The Italian old man didn't like me and didn't send me an invitation. This is a missed opportunity!"

The handsome white young man opposite her asked suspiciously: "Dear Michelle, what kind of Hemingway are you talking about?"

Michelle gave him a coquettish look, "Hemingway may be the best songwriter in the world. I want to know him and ask him to write a song for me. Besides, your brother talks about it every day. That "A Song of Ice and Fire" was written by Hemingway."

"It's him? I remembered," Carl cheered up. "He should be an interesting person. If you want to go, I'll take you there."

"That's great Karl, thank you!" Michelle stood up immediately, bent down, and kissed Karl across the dining table.

This Karl is not her boyfriend, just a rich second generation who wants to get her into bed.

She couldn't open the door of Collidio's mansion with her face, but Karl could.

If she can ask Hemingway for a few songs... Maybe she also has a chance to win the title of Queen of Heaven!

……

A middle-aged Caucasian man was lying on a massage table, covered with a white blanket, with his head propped up, sliding the touch screen of his mobile phone with one hand.

Two masseuses worked on his back and legs respectively.

The indoor air conditioner is turned on, the temperature is suitable, and several potted plants bloom delicately and greenly even in winter.

At this time, a push message suddenly popped up on the social software on his mobile phone: Your friend Sophia has updated a news.

Thinking of Sophia's hot body and pure and lustful face, the middle-aged white man licked his lips, "I really want to ask that beauty out to play again. Unfortunately, that woman has a big appetite and is very resourceful. Play very carefully with her, if you give her the chance, she will ask for more..."

While thinking about it, he clicked on the push message to check what Sofia updated.

He didn't care, just glanced at it casually, but after one glance, his eyeballs almost popped out.

I saw Sophia's updated dynamic: "Wow, cool, I finally met Hemingway. He is really a handsome oriental gentleman! Also, who do you think his girlfriend is?"

Below is a photo that was just taken.

In the photo, an oriental man with gentle eyes is talking with the famous movie star Leslie; Duan Duan, who has been popular in half the Stars and Stripes in the past six months, is holding his hand and smiling.

"Xie Te, when did he come to the Stars and Stripes! Why didn't anyone tell me!" The middle-aged white man threw off the blanket on his body and jumped off the massage table awkwardly, scaring the two masseurs.

"I have to go quickly! Bring me clothes!" he said violently.

"Okay, Mr. Meyer!" A masseuse quickly fetched his clothes, "What happened, Mr. Meyer?"

"Schete, of course something happened, use your pig brain to think, I was massaged comfortably, why did I leave suddenly! It must be because I had to leave! Damn! That person came to the Stars and Stripes, I must go see him right away!"

"Who? Who's here?"

"Hemingway."

"Who is he?"

Meyer replied grumpily as he buttoned up his shirt: "He's a writer, a billionaire. He wrote the greatest fantasy book ever written! I want to buy the rights and make it into a movie!"

The masseuse is an old acquaintance with him, and said with a smile: "But you said, he is a billionaire, so what price are you going to pay to buy his copyright?"

"Fake, so please stop arguing, I'm thinking about this problem! How can I impress him! But I have to buy the copyright of "A Song of Ice and Fire". If I can't shoot this movie myself, I will regret it lifelong!"

"I think, Mr. Meyer, you are the best director in Hollywood, and that Hemingway will definitely consider it seriously." The masseuse flattered him.

"Schete, I'm not the best director in Hollywood!" Meyer said arrogantly as he buttoned the last button, "I'm the greatest!"

The masseuse covered her mouth and chuckled.

……

Yan Yingzhen glanced at the phone, curled her lips, and casually threw it away.

She was lazily sitting on the single sofa in front of the fireplace with a glass of "Dalmore" whiskey. The cherry wood was crackling and burning, exuding a strong fruity aroma.

The flames danced on her delicate face, making her look radiant.

"Are you okay?" Stanley, the CEO of Universal Pictures, held a glass wine glass, in which an ice stainless steel ball was immersed in the orange liquor.

"It's nothing." Yan Yingzhen smiled slightly, "Let's talk about agency distribution."

Stanley shrugged, "Dear Yan, if you want to talk about agency distribution, you don't have to go there in person, just let the people below talk about such trivial matters. So, why don't you tell me directly, what exactly do you want? What?"

Yan Yingzhen stared into his brown eyes, took a sip of "Da Mo", and said with a smile: "You are a smart person, so I think you should have guessed a little bit."

The old fox smiled slyly: "But I can't believe what I guessed. God, do you know how much resistance this will have? And if you really want to do this, don't talk to me, I'm not from Universal Pictures Boss. You need to talk about this, talk to someone from Comcast."
