Producer [American Entertainment]

After lunch, William personally sent Wendy to the door, and his attitude was still so considerate and polite: "So, that's the agreement? See you tomorrow."

Wendy was immersed in the charming RP voice and couldn't extricate herself. She didn't know what William said. She just restrained her excitement of wanting to cheer whoopee, screaming and stomping her feet. She had exhausted all her efforts and attention .Fortunately, her reason taught her what it means to echo the last few notes, so that she would not be rude in front of her new male god: "See you tomorrow, William."

Turning around, Wendy couldn't control her expression.Oh dear God, I finally understand that you made my previous life so difficult to accumulate luck for this moment.

I am willing, I am willing to trade all the suffering in the past for the chance to meet William.Wendy thought he even heard the hymn from an angel.

then……

"What do you see tomorrow?" A cold voice came from behind the two, breaking all the magnificence of the fairy tale.

"Saba?" William passed Wendy, and looked at the long-legged cousin who fell from the sky in disbelief, "Why are you here?"

"Can't you come? Did I disturb something?" Sabatino was still the same, with a paralyzed face and an iceberg heart, as if he was dissatisfied with the world.He looked at Wendy's expression, which was even more gloomy.He was very upset, and everyone present could feel it.

As for why Sabatino is unhappy, this is beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

Wendy had completely died the moment William called her.How many people will be affectionately called "Saba" by William?Except his cousin Sabatino.Outside of Lexembla, there is no one else.The youngest billionaire, the new head of MGM, she encountered the ultimate big boss without any precaution!

Most importantly, the boss doesn't seem to like her very much QAQ why? BOSS won't misunderstand me as a golddigger (nugget girl, sugar daddy), right?

Mr. Special Assistant understood Wendy's expression, and he wanted to remind her at that time, honey, you really think too much.

"We just agreed to have a working lunch together."

Sabatino rings his chest: "Have you finished eating?"

"It's over." Wendy and William said together, like elementary school students who were questioned by the teacher, extremely obedient.

"Then what are you still doing here?" Sabatino asked Wendy.

"I, I, I'm leaving now." Wendy tended to stutter when she was nervous, and after apologizing, this windy woman disappeared from everyone's sight.She couldn't wait for the elevator, so she went straight to the fire escape.

"..."

After entering the office, facing the leftovers on the desk, Sabatino's expression became even more hostile.

Mr. Special Assistant winked, quickly cleaned up the mess on the table, and then never came back in the name of throwing garbage.As an old man who has been with Sabatino for many years, Mr. Special Assistant knows exactly when and what behavior is the most appropriate.

'traitor! William accused Sabatino's special assistant with his eyes, he didn't want to face his cousin who was obviously in a bad mood alone.

Mr. Special Assistant shrugged and gave William a "I like you" gesture.

It's almost inhumane to sell teammates!

Sabatino was pretending to be unintentional, and glanced at the desktop computer on the desk, the screen was black.His face was completely black.After the acquisition of MGM, he deliberately replaced all the high-level offices with brand new computers. Does William understand what this is for? !

William definitely didn't understand, because he was praising his wit at this time. Fortunately, the screen was black, and his cousin who was the boss didn't see that he didn't forget to chat during working hours.

Sabatino turned around, looked down at the wide scenery outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, pressed and pressed, and finally suppressed the tumbling emotions.Then, speaking as kindly as possible, he asked William, "How did you feel on your first day at work?"

Like it?Are you satisfied?Did someone bully you?Tell me all the details and I'll pack them for you!

William didn't expect Sabatino to ask such a question after deliberating for a long time.He was a little overwhelmed and had been thinking about it for a long time before he said dryly, "Very good."

"..." The kind Sabatino was completely useless.

Then, they fell silent.

Sabatino can clearly feel the strangeness and embarrassment between him and William, which he has been trying to eliminate since meeting William at the beginning of this year, but has never been successful.It shouldn't be like this between them!He should be very happy to call him cousin, he should have complained about countless troubles at work, should... this is probably the price for his changes.

"I forgot to tell you the address of the house earlier." Sabatino resumed the topic.

"Huh?" William was taken aback. His parents, who only know how to spend money, also own real estate in Los Angeles?Why does he have no idea?If you just want to talk about this kind of thing, wouldn't it be good to have the special assistant make a call?You don't have to fly from Silicon Valley to Los Angeles, just tell me yourself?

"I happened to come to Los Angeles to do something." Sabatino knew exactly what William would think, and had already prepared the reason.

"Oh." William nodded, indicating that he received it, and now the explanation makes sense.

The cousins, who were not close, fell silent again.

Sabatino racked his brains to rediscover the topic with William, but he is a taciturn character, which is really difficult for him.

William... is not a talkative alien either.

After a minute of embarrassment, Sabatino said: "I have real estate in Beverly and Malibu, which one do you prefer?"

Beverly and Malibu are two famous city-within-city in Los Angeles, high-end communities, celebrities from all walks of life gather.

"MGM is in Beverly, and Malibu is too far away." William made a subconscious choice.

Sabatino raised the corners of his lips in satisfaction. The choice between the two will always make people forget that they can actually refuse both.

"I will move out as soon as I find a suitable house." William continued.It was nice not to have to worry about where to live tonight, but he didn't want to live in Sabatino's house all his life.

... He regretted it, he wanted to live here for the rest of his life!

After actually seeing Sabatino's manor, William looked up at the main buildings and thought so.After he earns enough money, he must also buy himself a set that is exactly the same. There is no part of this English-style symmetrical building complex that does not meet William's preferences, as if someone stole his Dream it, then make it happen.

Sabatino was silent all the way, and only relaxed a little after observing that William liked this place very much: "You live on the west side, and the luggage has been packed by the maid in advance."

"What luggage?"

When William came from England, it can be said that he was alone. This is not because he is really poor, but the memory of 18 years is enough for him to get used to his parents' lifestyle - toothbrush, bank card and enough cash , this is all the luggage that is most suitable for travel.

From London to New York, and from New York to Los Angeles, William is a true believer in this philosophy.Had it not been for Sabatino's sudden appearance, William would have been on Rodeo Drive picking out his wardrobe for the coming season.

"Carl asked me to bring you some small presents." Sabatino brought out their grandfather without blushing.

Karl was the name of their common maternal grandfather, Karl.Feng.Bernstein, an American Jewish arms dealer who was born in World War I, grew up in Germany, and finally participated in World War II.

Grandpa's life can be said to be "rich and colorful".Therefore, William didn't think that such a Karl would be careful to prepare suitable seasonal clothes for him.

But if it wasn't for Carl, the only choice for William would be Sabatino, which is unimaginable, okay? !Sure enough, I still hope that grandpa will show his love once in a while under the reminder of the consultant.

...lots, lots of love.

Standing at the door of the room dedicated to storing clothes, William stood in front of a fitting room full of new styles of the season, as well as ties, watches, cuffs and other accessories. What can he say?

"I'm going back to my room."

"Go to bed early." You should be very tired.Said Sabatino, who was with William.

"No, I just remembered. I seem to have forgotten to reply to a friend on Skype." If it weren't for being frightened by these "loves", William really couldn't think of S.

Sabatino took a deep look at William with an indescribable expression, and his voice was like silk, passing softly and delicately, as if afraid of being surprised: "Is it a very important friend?"

"Well, it's very important!"

"Then go quickly." Sabatino's mouth slightly raised an arc of 1° more.

Until William turned back to the room, he was thinking about a question that refreshed his three views. Just now, his cousin seemed... very happy?Is it an illusion?Why is he suddenly so happy again?

On Skype, S left William at least fifty messages. Over the years, he has always been extraordinarily lively.

William: [...how free are you? 】

S: [I almost thought you were missing, and I was about to call the police! 】

William: [Let me tell you a piece of common sense. In this world, there is a word called W! O! R! K! (Job) is something that people like you who do nothing and hang on the Internet all day can't understand. Yes, refresh the entry in your mind, William got a job. ] S: [As far as I know, there is a computer in your workplace, even if you can't chat with me all the time, you should reply to me as soon as possible. 】William: 【My cousin is here. Have you met anyone who chats with friends in front of the boss while working? ] S: [Let's go back to the topic that you want to be a producer, have you got a chance to join the group? 】William:【Your skill in changing the subject is really brilliant.Yes, there are four crews to choose from. I only read a little material in the afternoon, and I am preparing to continue when I go home in the evening. BTW (by the way), I found a place to live, my cousin's. 】S: 【Would you mind telling me which four are they?We can choose together.Just tell me your name. For other information, I have my own small channel, which may even be more comprehensive than yours. You will pick the most suitable crew for you, which is more reliable than your own. 】William looked at the purple sunglasses in his hand, he had different opinions on S's words: 【Then let's compare. 】No one would go to a remote planet that is completely unfamiliar and isolated without wearing a golden finger.

William is no exception.

2B250 is his golden finger, that is, his purple sunglasses, commonly known as mimic light brain.When William left Star β, he bought the latest model, but because of the wrong posture of his time travel, he only woke up his optical brain from the dormant state today, 18 years later.

This optical computer has many functions, among which the most useful one for William is [Scanning].

2B250 can quickly scan and analyze various mental values ​​of a person, not the superficial height and weight, but the detection of various energies hidden in the spiritual body (commonly known as the soul), such as talent , luck, potential, etc.

Earthlings think these are illusory, but beta star people call it science.

What William said to Wendy, "You will become a big shot in the future", was not just to comfort her. He did see her limitless future through the optical brain. He was a rare assistant-type talent in the early days of entrepreneurship.

The materials of the four crews are naturally within the scanning range of 2B250.However, since the specific main creative personnel cannot be scanned, the result will be vague, but it is enough.

S: [None of these four crews are suitable, they are a disaster. ] William: [... Agree. 】

There is simply no bright future, and it will definitely be a double-kill ending that is neither popular nor popular.what to do?

The author has something to say:

*RP sound: Received Pronunciation (recognized pronunciation), Downton Abbey mentioned it once very pretentiously, my master has always been RP sound or something, the RP sound here refers to the queen and other nobles and people living in the southern part of England Can speak a standard accent.

*Malibu: Established in 1991, it was still part of Los Angeles in 79.

* Rodeo Drive: A famous high-end commercial street in Los Angeles. Although it is not as famous as Sunset Boulevard, the real luxury brands and top clothing designs in the world are all here.

Chapter 6 The Sixth Day on Earth: Old Samuel begins to believe that William is the cherub, pure.

Faced with the four movies that are destined to rush to even the mother does not know, what should I do?

S's big suggestion is: [Cousin will take you to pretend to be a force and take you to fly. 】

William: 【...I'm really curious, where did you learn all these weird Internet terms. PS: As I said, I don't want to rely on Saba all the time. 】Think about it, William managed to get Samuel to change his opinion of him a little bit, but he turned around and went to Sabatino and said that these four crews are not good...does he still want to be in the film in the future? MGM has a place?

Others are afraid of your relatives, and no one will ever be afraid of you. The effect is good.

S: [This is not relying on, but a reasonable use of resources.Anyway, regardless of whether you find your cousin or not, they will think that you will find him to solve the problem. If this is the case, why not make this belief true?Do you like the feeling of being wronged?Besides, what are you going to do without Sabatino?Choose the worst one that's not so bad? 】William:【Remember?I just went to work as a production assistant, not a producer. Strictly speaking, whether the film is good or bad has nothing to do with me. The experience of failure is also an experience. ] S: [... I lost, please be free, cough. 】

William and S said this online, but in reality, they were very clear that they were not telling the truth.

William is not stupid. If he really encounters a problem that cannot be solved, he will not give up Sabatino as a resource for some childish face.But the problem is that he can solve the current difficulties, if 2B250 is used properly.

This is something William couldn't tell S.

Moreover, one day in the future, S told him that when he saw a good movie in the theater recently, he said lightly, oh, I participated in the production of it, this feeling, just thinking about it, is very sour!He can't wait.

The next day, Los Angeles ushered in another sunny day. Although it was still cold, there was enough light.

This made William from London extremely unable to adapt.

Before going out, William found out that he and Sabatino clashed shirts today.Men's suits actually feel similar, especially the black formal suits required for work, but even the colors of the tie and square scarf collide, which is a bit embarrassing.

But in terms of time, it was really not enough for William to change his body again, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and get on Sabatino's extended Bentley.

Fortunately, Sabatino didn't seem to have any feelings about the incident of the shirt collision. He focused on the folder the whole time and looked very busy.

William gradually let go of his embarrassment.

The driver in the front row and Mr. Special Assistant exchanged a tacit look with each other, BOSS seems to be in a good mood today, ohyeah!

At 8:55, Sabatino and his team entered the MGM building on time.The scene at that time was a very typical movie style, a boss in a well-made three-piece suit, leading a group of subordinates who looked tall and tall, walked through the golden hall with a crowd of people like Moses, and all the employees stopped. , and BOSS enthusiastically sayhi.

It's a pity that William is not the boss, but just a foil standing one step later on the left side of the boss.

But this position is enough for people to yearn for. He is Lesenbra's cousin, and it seems that the relationship between the cousins ​​is very good.Do not believe?Let's see what they are wearing today.

The high-rise elevator went straight to the top floor, Sabatino led someone to the meeting room, and William entered his office.

William's new secretary is already in place, not Wendy.The secretary was waiting at the door of the office, and his desk was right in front of William's office, so that William could stop anyone he didn't want to see.

"Mr. Theros, hello, I am..."

"I don't care who you are, and I don't need to know." William interrupted the other party unceremoniously.

William helped his purple sunglasses, and on the virtual interface that no one else could see, the new secretary was marked with a big "malicious" red label.This is an untrustworthy assessment and warning made by the light brain based on the negative energy side of the opponent's mental body, and it has never missed.Human beings can lie and pretend on the surface, but their mental bodies can't do it.

However, the warning function of 2B250 is limited to negative energy. It is said that before William came to Earth, the Optical Brain Company was stepping up the development of favorability.

William felt that being able to warn of malice was enough.Such people are either spies or traitors. He has no feeling for them, because society is full of such people, and he can't get angry at all.All he can do is to be vigilant in his heart, and then stay away from the other party, or use it in reverse, so that the people behind the other party can only see what he wants them to see.

"Two things, one, inform the HR department that Wendy will become your intern assistant; two, call the creators of "Blood Red Splashed White Gauze" to my office." William ordered the new secretary.

"But, sir, today is Christmas Eve, and the crew has to go home."

"Look at me," William looked coldly at the short man in front of him, "Is my face, to you, very like 'I will care if you or others have a holiday'?"

"No, sir."

"Very well, I'm glad we reached a consensus. I don't care what method you use, either, before today, I'll see the lead in the office, or, after today, I'll never be in the MGM building again See you here."

"Yes, sir!" He answered unconsciously.

Before pushing open the office door, William finally turned around and said to the secretary: "By the way, when contacting the main creator, ask Wendy to follow you. Don't try to put the blame on her. If you don't invite someone, you will only leave." you."

Until William entered the office, Jiye stood there, unable to say a word.When he came to his senses, his forehead was already sweating.Before he was sent by his real employer, he had already heard about the temper of this "new boss". MGM belonged to his cousin, but his attitude was even more arrogant than his cousin.Jiye was already mentally prepared to deal with his ancestors, but he didn't expect that his preparations were far from enough.

William looked at people like a sword, if he didn't know that William was a full-fledged rich second generation, Ji Ye would even think that his identity had already been seen through by the other party.

At the same time, when Jiye and Wendy were struggling to contact the main creator of "Blood Red Splashed White Gauze", another high-level meeting was held in MGM's top-floor conference room.

Less William, more Sabatino.

Sabatino was not in a hurry to speak, but sat on the front black leather chair with a sense of presence, with an unhappy expression on his face.

Hugo, who was wearing gold-rimmed glasses, got up and spoke instead of his employer: "Mr. Lesembla is here this time, I just want to let you know one thing—"

All the high-level people sat upright and leaned over to listen.

"—he's never going to let you waste his money on a pile of rubbish."

The audience was in an uproar: "Trash?" Ask for details.

Mr. Special Assistant's timing was very accurate, and the outline materials of the four crews were distributed and passed on to every senior executive.

"It's understandable if you don't make money. After all, the company is still in the running-in period. It is impossible to make a big movie with a box office of hundreds of millions. But you can't even win an award. You are ashamed to say that you are MGM who has won the most Oscars." ?”

Since the golden age has passed, it's no secret that Oscar has increasingly favored low-budget literary films.MGM just happens to be able to make low-budget movies these days.

"But Oscar..." It was so hard.

It's true that MGM is the studio with the most Oscars, but that's history.There is only one Oscar a year, but there are five film industry giants like MGM, not to mention other independent film companies that are not as famous as MGM, but their strength has already far surpassed MGM.

"I'm not talking about Oscar." Sabatino spoke in person for the first time since entering the conference room. His voice was neither high nor low, neither fast nor slow, but it made everyone feel a kind of nakedness in the wilderness. Looking at them coldly, he paused every word, "What I'm saying is, there won't be any prizes."

Hollywood not only has the Oscars, but also the Golden Globes, as well as a wide variety of awards organized by major trade unions and various film critic associations, just like dividing pork. At the end of the year, the major film companies will always get some comfort.

But what Sabatino is discussing here is that these four movies can't even share pork.

"I thought you didn't like movies." A high-level person who was not afraid of death said.

"If you don't like it, it doesn't mean you don't understand it." Sabatino raised his eyebrows.Moreover, it's not that he doesn't like it, he's just not interested.He once watched a movie that he will never forget. Since then, how can I say it, he even has some psychological shadows on the movie theater, "Movies are also a business. I think I still have some problems in terms of financial investment. right to speak."

As a well-known genius on Wall Street, Sabatino had learned to open an account with his mother's ID when he was a child, and used his pocket money to earn more money for himself.So far, none of the stocks that Sabatino has bought or sold has failed.Many people even nicknamed him "The Prophet" behind his back.Countless lessons of blood and tears made them understand a truth. One second you were still laughing at Sabatino, and the next moment reality will slap you hard for him, proving that he is right, as if he could see what happened tomorrow.

"Can you really see what's going to happen tomorrow?"

"No, stocks are just a digital game, but anyone can become a genius based on a large amount of real and accurate data." Sabatino replied coldly, looking at the young man who asked the question, it should be someone The assistant brought in by the top management, "Your name?"

"John, sir, my name is John..."

"OK, John, you are fired. (You are fired.) I don't need an employee who doesn't know when to ask, a little advice for your next job, put away your curiosity." William was right Well, Sabatino is really cold, he has already despaired of the world and human nature, he will not feel that there is anything else worthy of his care and fear.

"So, let's get down to business."

***

After the meeting, she wisely chose Greta, who was waiting outside the door and did not enter the meeting room, and asked her boss, "How about the new boss?"

After old Samuel insisted on walking back to the office, he lost his strength and fell onto the blue soft chair.He took a few antihypertensive pills tremblingly, and then gave Greta the answer: "I think William is a spoiled little bastard, eh? Try to face Lesenbra, when the time comes you Then you will find that William is fucking a little angel, the kind with holy light shining all over his body."

Only when William was mentioned, Sabatino's violent and violent attitude eased a little.Samuel felt that he was able to survive from that conference room largely because he helped William yesterday.

"Speaking of which, what is William doing?"

"It is said that I am waiting for the main creator of "Blood Red Splashing White Gauze"."

"No, no, no, don't tell me, he has already chosen which crew to go to! Go stop him, go! Lexenbra will kill me if he finds out!"

As the godfather's grandson, William and Sabatino are completely two extremes.William gives people the feeling that he is so well protected that he won’t even believe his grandfather’s greenhouse flowers that killed people; Sabatino is... he really dared to shoot you on the spot, and you are very sure Knowing that he won't pay anything for it after the fact.

Cousins ​​who also live in the same family, why is there such a big gap in life?
