Lisco's American Life

"Hey, Writer Lisko, I finally meet you."

Before Liske came, he called the program team. After all, the CBS building still has a lot of people. If there is no one to guide him, who knows when he will find the right studio.

But he didn't expect that the person who came to greet him was Ellen DeGeneres, the host of The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

This woman is a legend in the American host world. As a well-known lesbian public figure, she married her long-term girlfriend, a host and movie star, last year.

Moreover, Ellen is the only host in history who has hosted the Oscars, Grammys, and Emmy Awards. She has been able to come from a middle-class family in New Orleans to the present. Her experience is unparalleled among all hosts.

A legend to admire.

Lisko saw that Allen actually came out to greet him in person, and he believed a little bit that he was a fan of his books.

"Hello, ma'am."

Liske stepped forward and hugged the fifty-one-year-old white-haired host.

"You are more handsome than I thought. You really should go to Hollywood."

Ellen did not hide her appreciation. She felt that Lisko's appearance was even more outstanding than what the publisher printed on the title page.

"Hahaha, I don't have that kind of talent."

Lisko said haha, going to act? Hollywood is not easy to mess around with, and he can't play in that place.

"Come on, let's go in and chat."

Allen looked around and saw that many reporters had already raised their cameras to take pictures of her and Lisko.

CBS is one of the three most well-known media companies in the United States. Various celebrities come and go at the entrance of the building here every day, so many entertainment newspapers will place a person here to take photos of celebrities.

If they don't go in, tomorrow's newspaper headlines may be, "Well-known lesbian host Ellen, met and hugged Xiaoxianrou."

As an old man who has been in the entertainment industry, Allen knows the tricks of these reporters very well, and do not underestimate their bottom line. Holding high the banner of freedom of speech and freedom of the press, they even dare to report on the president's private life.

"Okay, let's go."

Lisko made a gesture of invitation, and he also spotted the camera taking pictures in the distance.

As for letting Allen go first, firstly, the other party is a fifty-one-year-old woman, and she is only in her twenties.

Moreover, Ellen is a fan of her own books, and she has always been very kind to such fans. As a celebrity, her preferences can greatly affect her fans.

Moreover, as a well-known host, many hosts with the same identity have made remarks that hurt China, but Allen has never made such remarks, which also made Lisko involuntarily have a good impression of her.

Following Allen's lead, the group arrived at the recording site of Ellen's show, next to Allen's own office.

"Come, sit down, this is my favorite coffee, you can try it too."

Charles and Yu Qing consciously stood guard at the door, while Lisko took the coffee handed over by Allen and looked at the decoration here curiously.

Compared with the rumors from the outside world, Allen's own office is very simple, with simple white walls. You can also see that the desk is a bit worn, and the paint lines on it have fallen off.

This does not mean that Ellen is not taken seriously at CBS. It only means that Ellen is a relatively simple person. You know, she is the most famous host at CBS. How could she not have anyone to help her get a new desk?

Hanging on the wall is a calligraphy calligraphy written in Chinese characters, which reads, "We must always be kind to each other."

This is what Ellen has always stood for, and it is also the idea she has always promoted.

"Do you like this? I interviewed an old man from China who gave this to me. It's beautiful, isn't it? As a big country with a history of more than 5,000 years, I like their culture very much."

Allen watched Lisko staring at this and opened his mouth to explain.

"No, I just know these words. I am very knowledgeable about Chinese culture. After all, I have Chinese blood in my body."

"Oh? I really don't know."

Ellen's eyes lit up. She felt that tomorrow's interview could focus on this aspect and talk about it. I believe it would attract a lot of attention.

"By the way, I asked your agent, but I think it's better to ask you in person about this kind of thing. Do you have any questions that you don't want to be asked? Or if you need to avoid questions, I will avoid these questions.

.”

"No, I can answer any questions."

Lisko felt that he had decided to face the public. Even if he concealed something, everyone would dig it out. It was better to give others the impression that he could say anything.

"I really like you so much."

Ellen smiled and took a sip of coffee. This was the kind of interview she liked. There was nothing taboo and she could talk about anything.

"I heard that this is your first time on TV. Don't be nervous. Just think of it as a simple chat between the two of us."

Allen also photographed Lisko and couldn't let go, and went out of his way to comfort him.

"I'm a fan of your books, but you've never held a book signing, so can I ask you to sign it? I want to keep it in my collection."

Ellen seemed to have remembered something and walked towards the bookshelf next to the office. All her favorite books were placed here. After all, this was the office where she spent the most time.

The bookshelves are also filled with books, of all types, and the tastes are particularly mixed. Lisko can even see books labeled "Teaching you step-by-step to become a cooking expert" and "How to manage your own lawn"

.

Allen directly pulled out a few books from the adjacent area, which were all Lisko's long works since his debut.

"Of course, thank you for your support."

"I wanted to do a discussion on the content of your new book "Blood Road" at that time, but you know, although I am in charge of this program, I still have no decision-making power regarding the subject matter."

Allen said with some disappointment, seeing that she was not being polite, but really wanted to do this.

Lisko signed several books with Chinese calligraphy, and each book was specially annotated. Judging from the wear and tear on the book covers, Allen had really read these books, and the book "Blood Road" was also very worn.

higher.

These signs all indicate that Allen was not being polite when he said he liked "Blood Road".

"Maybe the timing is not right. Take your time and you will have a chance."

Whether Allen did it because of the news contained in the Chinese laborers going to the United States to build the railway, or because of the controversy it would cause in society, it was beneficial to Lisko if she did it.

Lisko lowered his head and took a sip of coffee. Yes, it did have a unique taste, not the instant cheap stuff.
