[US Entertainment] The Legend of Shen Nong Heroes

~~~~~~ It's not my fault to be tall! ~~~~~

Greenwich Village is in the West Side of New York, a place that is legendary.

But now it's midnight, in Yue Xi's eyes, it's all black and lacquered, nothing special.

On the contrary, Kapaniel, who walked a little ahead, made Yuexi feel very... special.Although it is said that Caucasians are tall, such a beauty who is close to two meters is still a spectacle.But the night was dark, and she couldn't see Kapanier's facial features clearly.

But most importantly, she is very kind and caring.

Although I haven't encountered any good things since I got off the plane, the appearance of Kapanier can offset all the negative energy before.And it can add a few points to New York.

What Kapaniel found for Yuexi was a small hotel, but it was by no means the one operated illegally.Although the conditions are a little rough, it is still very clean.

"Well, Kapanier, give me your mobile phone number." After completing all the procedures, Yuexi still did not forget the most important thing, "I will be fine after I get all the documents back." Contact you."

"Okay." Kapanier borrowed a pen and paper from the front desk of the hotel, and then left her mobile phone number to Yue Xi, "If you need any help, you can call me anytime."

"Hope is gone." Yue Xi smiled, waved her hand, and said goodbye to Kapanier.

Sleeping on the bed in the hotel, Yue Xi quickly fell asleep.But the occasional siren sound outside the window made her sleep extremely uneasy.

The next day, Yuexi called director Li An and asked for the address of her agent again.After calling and explaining, I went to the embassy.

Getting the passport back is the most important thing.

Afterwards, Yue Xi went to the brokerage company and met with the broker.

But what made Yuexi very uncomfortable was that the various terms offered by this brokerage company were very overbearing.

Yuexi had only participated in one movie before, and she had never been in touch with these rules and unwritten contracts in the entertainment industry.And American brokerage companies have developed very well, and they have an assembly line for actors.

Although it seems that actors themselves have a lot of freedom, they basically follow the route of the brokerage company, and even their personal image and personality are designed.

Yue Xi couldn't understand these things, and no one had mentioned them to her before.

So after this meeting, Yuexi considered another brokerage company.But that company is domestic, and the broker can be regarded as his relative.

It is said that acquaintances are easy to handle, and coupled with what happened last night, Yuexi really shrinks back from developing in Hollywood.

But since I came here, did I just leave like this?

Yuexi thought of Li An, the man who discovered himself and led him through the Oscar red carpet.

Should I call and ask his opinion?

"Hey, Charles, good morning." Just as she thought, Yue Xi picked up the phone and called Li An in Los Angeles.

Li An has one-eighth of Chinese ancestry, and his great-grandfather used to dig gold in the west.Surname Li, first name An, English name is.Born in 1964, he was discovered by scouts at the age of 16, and then appeared in many TV shows, movies and commercials.Then he started making movies when he was 30 years old, basically all independent movies.

And in 1999, when Li An was 36 years old and Yue Xi was 16 years old, he made his third movie.It was also this film that pushed his directorial career to the pinnacle.

Li An was nominated for Best Director in 2000 for this film, and this film was also nominated for Best Foreign Language Film Award. Of course, Yue Xi also won the nomination for Best Supporting Actress for her simple acting skills.

"How's the talk going?" Li An asked directly.As the person who discovered Yuexi, Li An knew that she would not call to chat with him, so he asked directly.

"I think..." Yuexi was thinking about what words to use to describe this meeting. Although Li An could speak a little Chinese, Yuexi still spoke English with him most of the time.

"Not used to this assembly line-like star-making system?" Li An guessed it himself. He has been filming with Yuexi for nearly half a year, and he still knows her character very well.

"Yeah, I'm not a Barbie doll." Yue Xi bit her lip and nodded.

"If you had been nominated for Best Supporting Actress back then and developed directly in the United States, even without the help of a famous brokerage company, you should be well-known now. But the key point is that you only have one work now, And it was two years ago, how many people do you think will remember you?" Li An rubbed his eyebrows, and patiently explained to Yuexi, "You have never even been to the imperial capital of your country. In New York you What do you think you can achieve on your own?”

"Hmm..." Yuexi lowered her head deeply. For the first time, she didn't listen to Li An's suggestion and missed the best opportunity for development.But the second time she listened to Li An's suggestion, she couldn't accept this American fast food star-making method.

"You're an adult too, so make up your own mind." Li An's assistant walked into the office, as if there was something wrong.He had no choice but to hang up Yuexi's phone first, and was busy with the matter at hand.Moreover, he can't really help with this kind of thing, and Yue Xi still has to make his own decisions.

Yuexi felt a little indecisive, something she had only recently discovered.As an only child born in a super-large industrial city, Yuexi actually didn't have many opportunities to make her own decisions since she was a child.

I remember that the first major decision I made for my life was to participate in this movie directed by Li An.Her parents were against it at the time, and Yue Xi convinced her parents and herself with just a few words.

And then she continued to choose between the development of the entertainment industry and the university to enter the university.But sadly, she didn't choose a major.Not only does it not match her talent, but her employment prospects are still bleak.

So the third personal decision, Yuexi came to New York.

It's just that she never expected that she would face the fourth life choice so soon.

While waiting for her passport to be reissued, Yue Xi thought about this issue very seriously.During this period, Yuexi's mother called her.

Her mother told her that the domestic entertainment company that approached her two years ago is still welcoming her with open arms.And she didn't have to buy the ticket back to the United States herself, the first-class seat was waiting for her at any time.

They also promised that they could start filming immediately after Yuexi returned to China, and there were still several scripts waiting for her to choose.

Yuexi was really moved by such a condition, but she was still hesitant.Because Li An once told her before that the level of the domestic entertainment industry is very deep and it is difficult to mix.

Yuexi didn't understand the deep meaning of Li An's words at the time. She just thought that domestic directors didn't like wild stage teams like her, and preferred actors with professional backgrounds. If she wanted to cooperate with a big director, it would be more difficult.

But the entertainment company that my mother mentioned is considered the top in the country, and several actresses that Yuexi likes are all in that company.If you go by yourself, the treatment shouldn't be too bad, right?

Really unable to make a decision, Yue Xi took out a piece of paper, drew two lines horizontally and vertically from the middle, and divided it into four halves.

On the upper left, write the benefits of returning to China, and on the upper right, write the benefits of staying in the United States.The disadvantages of returning to China are written on the lower left, and the disadvantages of staying in the United States are written on the lower right.

After enumerating them one by one, let's make a comparison, then the pros and cons can be well judged.

But the only thing Yuexi overlooked was that she had never been in contact with either the domestic entertainment industry or the American entertainment industry.These advantages and disadvantages are actually her own imagination, without any reference at all.

During the time waiting for the passport to come down and filling up the paper, Yuexi often goes out for a walk.

The West Side of New York is a very legendary place, and now everyone is here, whether she chooses to stay or leave, she is still idle, taking advantage of the beautiful spring, let's go sightseeing.

In fact, Yuexi has no experience of shopping alone. In the past, she used to hang out with friends.But now in New York, there is no way for anyone she knows to go shopping with her.

But on the way to Central Park, Yuexi ran into someone she knew.

"Kapanil!" Yuexi saw Kapanier at a glance, not only because she is a beauty, but also because she is very tall, even in the United States, she still stands out from the crowd.

"Oh, Cynthia." Kapanier was also a little surprised when she saw Yuexi, she walked over with a smile, "Did you find your things later?"

"Well, no..." Yue Xi shook her head and said with a wry smile.She didn't want to recall those not-so-good things, so she changed the subject, "Are you going to work?"

"No, just hanging out." Kapanier blinked, as if she was not sure about the answer.

"Me too." Yuexi suddenly became happy, she grabbed Capanelle's arm, and said with a smile, "Why don't we go to Central Park, I didn't go all the way last time."

"This..." Kapanier hesitated for a moment, but did not immediately agree.

"Do you have a date later?" Yue Xi suddenly felt that she was a little too familiar, and according to Li An, it seems that Americans pay attention to sex, and her current behavior is very nasty.

"No, no, hehehe." Capanelle laughed, and her laughter sounded a bit simple and honest, "Let's go to Central Park together."

Hearing Kapanier's laughter, Yuexi couldn't help shivering.In fact, that night, she felt that Capanelle did not actually look like a woman.But it was a dark and windy night, and Yuexi was tired and terrified, so she didn't pay attention to some details at all.

Now under the bright sun, Yuexi saw the fine hair on Kapanier's arms like a spring grassland, her huge feet, and her simple and manly laughter. She couldn't help but suspect that Americans What did you eat to grow up.

But according to Li An, there are many men in their country who like to wear women's clothes. Could it be that Kapanier is such a person?

The more she thought about it, the more something went wrong, Yuexi raised her head and looked at Kapanier beside her.

But her head is very small, for her height of nearly two meters.The waist is also very thin, and the legs are terribly long.And the most important point is that her face is very beautiful, so beautiful that Yue Xi is a little bit resigned to it.

No, no, you can't discriminate against super tall girls.

Yue Xi shook her head, and focused on the upcoming Central Park.
