Hollywood Tycoon [US Entertainment + Business War]

Jed couldn't help laughing, "John, anyway, I must thank you. Without the help of you and Shannette, the Sherman family would not have accumulated such a huge wealth. When I came from the emergency room The first thing I did when I woke up was to think about how I could survive, and now it turns out that I not only survived but outlived my enemies. Especially you, John, you don't owe me anything. You stayed and helped me with all the dirty stuff, and if it weren't for me, you'd be a much more respectable person by now. If you weren't my personal lawyer, I guess you'd be the King of New York."

John shrugged, "Don't take me too seriously. If I hadn't followed you, I might not have achieved what I am today. Do you really think that I can live a better life when I return to my family? Whether it is In the past or now, our family will never allow a homosexual to become the 'Godfather'. Even if I go back to our family, I can only be the person behind the 'Godfather', and such people often do not have good End.—Jed, how long has it been since you went to the bar?"

Jed thought for a while, "Has it been a long time? What about you? Don't you still have a private club?"

John smiled and said, "I didn't call you when I went to that clubhouse for vacation? But we should go to the bar to relax. Isn't it the end of the world this year? Wouldn't it be too uneconomical if we died in the busy work? "

There is never a shortage of bars and clubs in Los Angeles, and there are bars of all types.Just for gay bars, there are bear bars, Latin bars, etc., but Jed and John chose a relatively popular comprehensive gay bar.After a few glances at Jed and John, the doorman at the bar didn't move away.This is the privilege of a hot bar, and a hot bar is entitled to select customers.

If you are not hot enough and not handsome enough, the guards will never let you in.Of course, if you are a big celebrity, maybe you can make an exception.Therefore, bar doorman is also a very formal occupation in Los Angeles. They must distinguish which guests the bar needs and which guests the bar does not want.In addition, they must also pay attention to the entertainment news and social news in Los Angeles and even the whole country, to ensure that those celebrities and celebrities can enjoy VIP treatment from the moment they arrive at the door of the bar.

It is a pity that although Jed's name appears in the reports of major entertainment media or financial media in the United States from time to time, his photos are rarely published.And John is even less famous. As Jed's special assistant and private secretary, he is of course a key figure in the industry, but other industries may not recognize him.Seeing that he was politely rejected by the doorman, Jed was a little dumbfounded. Back then, he could enter and leave any bar or nightclub in Los Angeles at will with a single face.

Fortunately, Jed still understood the rules of the bar doorman. After the two dollars were stuffed in, Jed and John finally entered the bar.Brilliant lighting and intense dance music are mixed in the room, and countless young men who are half naked or simply have only a pair of thongs are writhing happily in the middle of the dance floor.If they catch their eyes, they will naturally rub their bodies against each other.In a bar like this, the toilet must be big enough.Because in such a bar, the toilet is not necessarily used for convenience.And in the dimly lit passageway from the dance floor to the bar, brash young men were already stroking each other's bodies.

Naturally, Jed and John would not go to the dance floor to dance with those handsome or mighty men. If they have the time, they might as well go to the bar for a drink.Maybe it's because of seeing Jade's well-dressed clothes. If the young men and women in Los Angeles can't tell the difference between real and fake famous brands and what is top luxury, they might as well go back to their hometown to farm as soon as possible.Several young men could see clearly what Jed and John were wearing, one was Giorgio Armani's casual wear, the other was Hugo Boss formal wear; one was Patek Philippe on the wrist, and the other was Vacheron Constantin.As the saying goes, men look at their watches and women look at their bags. Those men have already determined that Jed and John are wealthy men.If you are lucky, maybe you can be everyone's sugardaddy.Even if it's just Kaizi who can only do the best, then he must be able to spend the night in the presidential suite of the top hotel in Los Angeles, and then he will have a good talk tomorrow.If you're lucky, you might even get a nice gift.

For this group of teenagers who hang out in nightclubs, sleeping with someone is not a shameful thing. If you love me and can enjoy life, why not?Thinking of this, the group of boys gathered around, and one of the handsome blond boys smiled sweetly and said, "Can you buy us a drink, buddy."

Jed saw the group of boys gathered around him, he was still a little bit surprised, then he smiled and spread his hands, "What's wrong?" He turned to the bartender and said, "The drinks they ordered will be charged to my account."

Originally, this would only be useful for hotel regulars, but the bartender had already seen that the man in front of him paid the bill with a Citibank Platinum card, and he also had an American Express Centurion card in his wallet.Since he is a bartender in a Los Angeles nightclub, he still has basic eyesight.What is Centurion Card?This bartender is very clear, not to mention that the application fee of 5 US dollars and the annual fee of 25 US dollars are already staggering, and more importantly, it is only open to AmEx Platinum users, and who can use it depends on the bank.With such credit as a guarantee, the bartender is not worried about this man talking big.He believes that as long as this man is willing, he can buy this bar as his own private club at any time.

After getting the drink, the boy who spoke up rubbed his jeans-wrapped butt against Jed, who felt a little embarrassed.John smiled and said, "People have already taken the initiative, so why are you embarrassed?"

At this time another boy said: "You let Jack go with him, how about I drink with you?"

John didn't say anything, so Jed dragged the boy named Jack to the dance floor.At this time, the DJ in the nightclub changed a song, which turned out to be a lyric song by Britney Spears.New Generation Records released the single "...babyonemoretime" for Britney last year (1998). Unexpectedly, it was well received at the end of the year. Therefore, in January this year, the Warner Music Group jointly released the single "...babyonemoretime". Lanny's new album "...babyonemoretime".Now it is November, this album has also completed the promotion of two singles "sometimes" and "(youdriveme) crazy", and it is currently one of the most popular songs in nightclubs.Hearing the familiar "sometimes", Jed was a little dazed.

"sometimeun, sometimeide, sometimessi'mscaredyou, buta11irea11ywanttoho1dyouright, withyoudayandnight, babya11ineedtime." Jed has been familiar with this line for a long time, but when he hears it again, his mood is completely different.The boy named Jack leaned close to Jed's ear, and his moist and hot tone floated in Jed's ear, "You like that man very much, don't you?"

"Not to mention, we are just good friends." Jed responded a little lightly.

"You adults!" Jack shook his head and said, "When you reach a certain age, you start to pretend to be yourself. If you like others, you have to pretend that you don't like them. Look at the way he looks at you holding me. The words of the gun will definitely make my head explode. But even so, he will not tell you to reject me, even if you will reject me because of his words. Believe it or not, even if he sees the two of us in bed, he will leave with a smile Tsk tsk, I'm so upset, I have to pretend! Kiss me!"

"Stop making trouble." Jed shook his head, "When you reach our age, you will know that many things are beyond your control."

After getting rid of Jack, Jed returned to the bar, and John smiled deliberately: "That boy is so attached to you, I thought you two would leave me in the nightclub and left. You are willing to, look at him waist, tsk tsk..."

"Okay, I'm so sour that I have to pretend I don't care!" Jed sneered.

"Who cares?" John was taken aback for a moment, although his face blushed, but he stubbornly refused to admit it.

Jed didn't bother to pursue it any further, and said, "We should go too, or there will probably be paparazzi taking pictures nearby."

John nodded, Jed paid the bill and left the nightclub together.The nights in Los Angeles are actually quite quiet, because the only noisy places are nightclubs.The billboards around Sunset Boulevard are still dazzling, and the bright street lights make it impossible to see the stars in this city.While the two were waiting for the car on the side of the road, Jed was suddenly hit by a man who was already drunk.Originally, Jed planned to throw the man by the side of the road, but he found that the man looked very familiar.Although he was still very young at this time, a name suddenly appeared in Jed's mind, John Stewart.

This short man is not simple. He has monopolized the Emmy Awards for 11 years and is known as the most credible TV host in the United States.The talk show he hosts is also popular in China, and Chinese netizens nickname him "囧Situ".But at this time, John Stewart is still getting a lot of quilts. He has interviewed for the late-night talk shows of almost all major TV stations in the United States, and he has also entered the final list, but he will always be the one who was eliminated and starved to death in the cafeteria. people.

If Jed remembers correctly, John Stewart should have come to cbs to interview the host of "The Late Show". Unfortunately, he lost again to the official host of the show, Craig Child.John Stuart was extremely depressed, but Jed knew that after the setback in this interview, he had his own take-off.This short Jewish man and his creative team created a new model of American late-night talk shows. Generally, American late-night talk shows adopt a model similar to Chinese "stand-up comedy" in arranging one or two interviews.

But John Stewart turned the late-night talk show into a mockery of American news and news people. His stage is no longer a stage suitable for performances but a broadcast station imitating a news anchor station.Every time he tells a joke, he has to imitate the news program with a picture in the upper left corner of the screen, and then follow the news program to add appropriate video when he broadcasts the joke.And importantly, he not only allowed himself to monopolize the Emmy Awards for 11 years, but also brought out apprentices like Stephen Colbert.

Of course, what Jed didn't know was that after his rebirth, John Stewart trained another apprentice-John Oliver.
