American Fortune Life

"YES! YES!"

With a constipated expression on his face, Andy looked at the fat man beside him who jumped up from the sofa, kept flexing his arms to show off his strength and cheered, and gnashed his teeth and threw away the handle in his hand.

"Haha, thank you, $100!" Carl didn't care about how ugly Andy's face was, he took a hundred dollars from him, carefully folded it up and put it in his pocket.

"So, shall we continue? If not...you've already lost five rounds." Fatty Carl said to Andy as if I was thinking of you.

"Damn, how is it possible, how can you be faster than me!"

Carl smiled triumphantly, "You know, I'm also very good at racing games, and my driving skills can outshine you by several blocks!"

"Hmph! Stop playing, it's boring!" Andy turned off the TV angrily. To be honest, no matter in his past or present life, he has never been very interested in racing and parkour games. . .

"Okay, okay, you are the boss, you have the final say, it's getting late, I should go. By the way, this is a letter from the screenwriters union, you need to give a positive answer, don't forget Don't say anything, just say you support the union's decision." Carl looked at his watch, patted his forehead, took out a white envelope from his pocket and handed it to Andy.

"Is there still no consensus on the royalty issue?" Andy calmed down his uneasy mood, and asked while opening the envelope.

"Well, the development of new media has made the profits in these fields not only grow fast, but also occupy a larger and larger proportion. But the old contracts did not allow screenwriters and writers to taste the sweetness, and the copyrights in these fields did not. Get the protection you deserve. This time it seems that the American TV and Film Producers Union is going to be unlucky. The normal operation of the American TV industry may spread to Hollywood."

Seeing Carl's schadenfreude, Andy rolled his eyes a little speechlessly, and said viciously: "Asshole, I own a TV station and a film company!"

Carl looked at Andy as if you were missing, "Don't think I don't know, the script for the second season of "Gossip Girl" has already come out, and the scripts for the movies that have been approved by the summit have already been in place, which is AMC You have been asked by you to finish the script of the second season of "Mad Men" on TV... You have been preparing for it for a long time, but now you look like you may lose a lot of money, it's really shameless."

"roll--"

Looking at the back of Carl fleeing in a hurry, Andy laughed angrily. He closed the letter, raised his eyebrows, and shrugged his shoulders indifferently. After the news broke out, I remembered the writers' strike that broke out this year and lasted for four months, even causing the Golden Globes to cancel the award ceremony, and the Oscars were greatly affected by the strike. Naturally, we will prepare early.

Because even he will have to respond to the call of the union to go on strike. Even Hollywood's first-line actors have chosen to support the screenwriters union and join the ranks of the strike. The general trend is that no one will be a traitor at that time , That's why he asked his TV and film companies to work overtime to keep up with the progress, even if they had to pay overtime pay.

American TV dramas are collectively lying down. Whoever has stock in their hands at this time can grab the ratings. In 4 months, tsk tsk, it is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Well, he is not the only one who is smart. The major TV stations have already expected it and prepared a lot of scripts, but what they didn't expect was that it would spread to actors, even stage actors.

This matter was inevitable, and he did not need to pay too much attention to it, but it was definitely necessary to issue a statement in support of the union. He did not want to be the target of public criticism. In Hollywood, reputation was very important.

"...well honey, trust me, you and the baby will have no problem...how come,

How could you be too fat, not fat at all, it was all written by those reporters.

Don't pay attention to that nasty joke, isn't the feedback from the audience very effective, that is, you just need to pay attention to it next time, don't just open your mouth and fall for the tricks of those hosts. . .

The promotion of "The Golden Compass" is not as important as your safety and health, well, I'll be there at night, okay, boo-bye. "

After wiping off the forehead that was covered with black lines, although she didn't sweat, she hung up the phone. It seems that the IQ of my sister, Sai Huang, has degraded a bit. She wasn't really pregnant for three years.

A 30-minute phone call, most of the time was used to coax her, all kinds of entanglements, all kinds of worries, and when she appeared on TV to promote movies, she also made several jokes, but she always used cute words The expression was muddled, and the audience thought it was the effect of the show. Only Andy and Saihuang knew that Saihuang's attention was indeed a little lacking, his memory was declining, and his brain was sometimes not working.

Fortunately, the actress's acting skills are not good enough. The slow rhythm and Andy gave her a trick, the effect of pretending to be silly and cute is very obvious. This kind of cuteness that is different from the usual glamor also surprised the audience. like.

After checking the time, he picked up the car keys and walked into the garage. With the help of the bodyguards, he pulled the dust cover.

"Buzz-buzz-"

The Ferrari 275GTB roared, and Andy rolled down the window glass with his hands, released the brakes, and this rare, antique Ferrari, born for the track, drove out of the villa. The paparazzi were separated by bodyguards to let him go Passed by, and then stepped on the accelerator and walked away.

Straight to school, ahem, Andy is a little ashamed, after all, he is a celebrity student, he really spent three days fishing and two days screening, but fortunately he has his old coach to help him, otherwise, even if he can pass all the exams, His credits may not be enough, and it would be shameful not to graduate by then.

Looking at the big box on the passenger seat, Andy smiled, and it can be regarded as an explanation to the brothers of the fraternity. It seems that he will stay in California for the next period of time.

I first went to the university administration building to find the professors of various subjects to sell their vacations, and then returned to the fraternity villa with gifts, because it was class time, and of course there was never a shortage of people in the villa.

As soon as his car arrived, a few people ran out of the house, stepped forward to hug him enthusiastically, beat and played, "Tommy, my co-pilot is a gift for brothers, well, there is caviar and truffles, and some prime steak from my farm..."

"Oh my God, dear Andy, we finally waited for you to come back..." At this time, several people ran out of the villa, and when they heard Andy's words, they rushed towards the box with green eyes and mouths. Still yelling.

"Hey, Jerry, how are you doing recently?" Andy hugged Jerry, his little follower, hard, and slapped him on the back intentionally.

"Ahem...damn it, let go, boss...let go, ahem." Jerry, who finally broke free from Andy's clutches, looked at Andy with a smirk, blushing and resentful.

"Okay, welcome back, boss." Jerry and Andy clapped their hands together and made a few gestures, then bumped into each other.

"Papa papa!"

Jerry clapped his hands vigorously and raised his arms high. Five or six people stood at the door of the villa and looked at Andy curiously. Then Jerry shouted loudly: "Welcome our superstar back!"

Seeing everyone in the fraternity clapping their hands vigorously with a smile on their faces, Andy also raised his right hand and clenched his fist, beating his heart, "Thank you!"

Walking into the villa surrounded by people, seeing those unfamiliar faces, he couldn't help but ask, "Newcomers?"

"Well, there are a lot of graduates this year, so this time the number of new recruits has increased. By the way, although it is a pity that you missed Hamilton's farewell party, but look at the steak, red wine and cake you sent, leave The person who chose to forgive you..."

Andy kicked Jerry, who was playing tricks angrily, and scolded with a smile: "A bunch of bastards!"

"Hehe, Hamilton asked me to thank you again for him."

Andy shook his head with a smile and said: "I talked to him on the phone, I didn't do anything, it's all up to him."

"Ha~ Come on, without your call, he might not be able to compete with people from Harvard and Stanford, forget it, as long as he knows what's going on." Jerry shrugged noncommittally, his own father is Andy As a senior partner of a law firm, how could he not understand the weight of Andy's recommendation to Hamilton? It is definitely not easy to be an assistant at Smith Law Firm.

"Notify everyone, come back for lunch at noon." Andy said with a smile.

"Why, you still have to leave this afternoon?" Seeing Andy nodding, Jerry said helplessly: "Okay, let me tell the circle, by the way, genius Andy, your whatsapp is simply amazing, especially This circle of friends is so convenient!"

Andy smiled smugly, and didn't show any modesty, because that's very un-American, "There will be new features added later, and I think you will love it even more!"

"Really? Then we'll wait and see...Okay, let's post it in the group. By the way, you should thank Tommy. That kid has been on duty for you and cleaned your room regularly." Jerry followed Ann Behind Di, walked into the clean and tidy Andy's room, and reminded.

"Well, I see." Andy took out the clothes from his backpack and hung them in the closet. He was also very satisfied with the clean and tidy room. "Doesn't Tommy like baseball?"

"Well, that's right."

"That's good." Andy poked his head out into the corridor and yelled, "Tommy!"

Soon I heard the sound of going upstairs, "Andy, what do you want from me?"

"It's nothing, just to thank you for your help during this time, how about a set of annual tickets for the VIP area of ​​the Los Angeles Dodgers?" Andy clapped his hands and bumped shoulders with Tommy who walked in.

"Wow, great gift, thank you." Tommy accepted Andy's thanks very generously. There was no way, who made a team with a superstar when assigning work, and Nima didn't go to school all day Naturally, cleaning can only be done by one person. Although it is not intentional to please Andy, a rich man, he still hopes to get closer to Andy. After all, the example of Hamilton, who is Andy's leader, is there.
