Professor Wright’s contempt from the beginning was shocked and his expression changed extremely brilliantly. Every point Yang Can said was not what he thought. The difference is that he has been with his students day and night for several years and talked about it. I knew it well, but Yang Can only observed them on stage for an hour, and he was able to grasp their strengths and weaknesses so accurately.
This is simply incredible, and as Yang Can said, the actor of Hora Xu, Keane, is actually an actor from a famous stage troupe in Los Angeles. Today, he was specially invited to instruct the students, only because of Hora Xu’s The actor had nothing to come, so he could only be allowed to play the role of Huolaxu, and the substitute student would play Hamlet.
Le Kai didn't know whether Yang Can was slanderous, but felt that all the actors on the stage looked at this side with different expressions. Some were surprised, some admired, and more disappointed.
Even Natasha's eyes seemed extremely weird, and she couldn't help but doubt in her heart. Could it be that Lao Yang's casual words really fooled these professionals
Yang Can's critical words are powerful enough to prove his identity as a producer. For these actors in the training school, how rare a film performance opportunity is! It is equivalent to athletes being able to participate in the Olympics. It is definitely everyone's dream!
Professor Wright suddenly woke up and clapped his hands loudly: "Come on, let's do it again, and perform well, Finley, you are ready~!" Facing a filmmaker who came to pick an actor, everyone had completely different attitudes. I tried my best to show it.
It is a pity that no matter how hard the caa students perform, Yang Can is no longer interested. Before the performance is over, Yang Can drags his party away.
Hearing someone behind him talked about "this man is really crazy" Yang Can feels helpless, where he is crazy, an actor with a consciousness energy of over 300, a producer professor with an energy of 359, this famous caa really disappointed him too much. Up.
Before Le Kai left, Natasha’s nostalgia was overwhelming. As he walked and looked back, Zhu Huaicheng saw the clues and smiled and muttered: "Kay, don’t panic, does this girl have your phone? If there is a phone, she will definitely call you. Yes, listening to Brother’s bag is correct."
How can you not see the old fritters like Zhu Huaicheng? The beautiful girl’s thoughts, Le Kai brought a film producer, and if you have the brain, you can find out the identity of Yang Can by checking the Internet. Then you won’t come to Le Kai to find the way. strange.
When leaving, another black guy came over and pulled Yang Can eagerly and said, "Mr~Mr. Could you please take a look at my profile? I can participate in an audition at any time."
Yang Can took the information he handed over and stuffed it into Le Kai's hands without comment. This action was deliberately done for these Le Kai's old classmates, and he was always very concerned about his own Yang Can.
Suddenly, many people learned from the black guy coming over and handing over their own information. For a while, Lucky became the busiest person. Looking at Yang Can’s weird feeling, I really don’t understand it. This is similar to his own age. Roommates who have only been in the United States for a short time are surprised at everything.
"Lao Yang, you really are not a film producer... why do I feel more and more immortal?"
Xu Xiaoxiao snickered, Zhu Huaicheng patted Yang Can's shoulder grinningly, and said: "Sometimes I really suspect that your roommate is not Chinese, even you, the inland-shocked Nanshi Pao brother, don’t know. Is he still in the entertainment industry?"
Le Kai opened his mouth slightly, and then all things connected, pointing at Yang Can and exclaimed: "Lao Yang.. You are the Yang Cannon that my mother always scolds and abuses female stars on the phone!?" Stammered.
Yang Can silently let a few of them get in the car first, and he walked around in caa. In order to avoid missing some people with high consciousness energy, he took a pen and notebook and carefully recorded the values of those consciousness energy. .
Although this place is not very satisfying, Yang Can has always been meticulous, and he does not want to let go of those seemingly unimportant information. This is also a habit of his being a psychologist.
Just walked to the corner of the prop room, a pair of young men and women were hugging and kissing together. The man was a tall white man. The T-shirt was printed with the "Cameron Performance Association" logo. The girl was blocked by the sturdy body of the young man. Can't see the skin "color" that looks like an Asian, Yang Can just lamented that the atmosphere in the United States is open.
I don’t want the sturdy white youth to turn his head when he happened to see Yang Can looking at them with a pen and paper in his hand. His face sank: "What are you looking at!?"
Yang Can was scolded, and couldn't help but look more at the consciousness energy 301 of the Asian girl behind the white man. It's so careless. I don't want the white man to shout at the other side: "Look, do you want to trouble?"
Yang Can frowned, feeling a little helpless in her heart. His mind-reading technique is a bit bad, and he has to look at others and it will inevitably lead to misunderstandings.
Yang Can sighed and was quite disappointed with the CAA's investigation. He turned his head and left. The white young man strode over and cursed: "Boy! Stop!" Some students around were attracted to watch the excitement, just looking at the show. .
At any rate, he thinks he is an adult and doesn't want to entangle with such a young man. It seems that he is still ready to do it. It is too simple to beat someone. The problem is that the "Chinese fire-fighting hero" follows him.
At this time, a few Asian young men in the distance were rushing over with their shoulders and backs. Without a word, they picked up a flower pot next to them and smashed them from a distance.
"Miller, do you still want to be beaten!?" One of the Chinese-Asian chubby guys flaunted his expression and yelled, but the tall white man didn't dare to scream. Obviously he was very jealous of them and carried it in anguish. My Asian girlfriend left.
The headed little fatton saw Yang Can in surprise and said in Chinese: "It's really you, Brother Yang."
Yang Can looked at this little fat man carefully, and suddenly remembered that he was a younger brother in Nanshi Middle School. He was blackmailed by social gangsters at the school gate. He helped him beat up those gangsters. He seemed to be called Tang Jun. .
"Why did you come to the United States?" Yang Can squeezed the boy's shoulder in surprise, remembering that this boy was very thin before, and eating fried chicken in the United States has become such a virtue.
Tang Jun smiled and said authentically: "My mother remarried an American, and the family has immigrated, but my sister still often misses you."
"That nerd Tang Xin also came to America?"
"Yeah, I am a barrister now, but it's a pity that the old *** is not married, it's annoying."
Looking back on the past, Yang Can couldn't help but laugh, thinking that he was also a noisy person at Nanshi High School. At that time, the squad leader Xiao Tang hated him so much that he hadn't seen him for so many years.
The group of people around Tang Jun were all local Asian students. Everyone was a little excited to see Yang Can, and rushed to shake hands with him:
"Mr. Yang, I saw you on TV. It's awesome! We all felt shameless during the days of the fire." The Hong Kong guy was the most excited and almost didn't ask Yang Can to sign him.
Now Yang Can really feels that his popularity in the Los Angeles Chinese circle, and Tang Jun smoking a cigarette to relive the old days, only to know that Tang Jun learned some computer special effects in caa, and he also set up a studio, but not yet. Taicheng climate.
The stay in caa was a little longer, and Yang Can had to speed up and continue to inspect other acting schools. Fortunately, Le Kai knew a little bit about the arrangements of public performance classes in each school, and the time was relatively good.
It took about half a month to go back and forth, and I visited about 30 schools, some of which he had hardly heard of, and some of them hadn't even established their own official websites.
However, according to his personal inspection, the information is very detailed. Except for the financial status of these companies, which is sent by Yiyi, most of them are analysis tables that only he can understand.
For example, what is the average consciousness energy of the whole school’s acting school, which is the highest, whether there are special talents in setting, props, computer production, etc., and even the consciousness energy of the teachers in the class has a detailed analysis.
Yang Can looked through these materials, carefully reviewed them, and couldn't help but sigh. No wonder the scouts don’t want to focus on these adult colleges. They can understand by looking at these materials, although it cannot be said that there are no talents in these adult performance schools , But the ratio is very low.
Most of them are people between 200 and 280. There is basically no school with more than 20 people with an energy of more than 300, except for a "Clockwork Film and Television" invested by the great director George Lucas, which has an energy of more than 450. Except for the lecturer, there are less than twenty people with more than 400 energies.
Such qualities simply do not meet the requirements of Yang Can. He needs a group of people with energy close to 500 or even more than 500 to build the planned team.
In the face of this situation, Yang Can had to focus on those professional schools that produced extremely high star production to train young actors, such as the veteran performing school "Carl Training Class" in Los Angeles and the "Professional Performing Arts School" in New York.
After the inspection, Yang Can found that these two schools are indeed Hidden Dragons and Crouching Tigers. Among them, there are no shortage of lecturers with more than 700 energy in the industry's top people, and there are also talents with more than 500 energy in the students.
But looking at their financial statements, it makes people feel a headache. The assets of the two colleges are more than 80 million US dollars. Even if half of the equity is converted, the 40 million US cloud is basically unattainable by the top. And money is not the biggest headache for Yang Can.
What makes him even more disappointed is that most of the talents in these two schools have been signed to the four major agencies representing 70% of the American entertainment industry’s actors, directors, musicians and screenwriters, innovative artist agencies, International creation management, Endeavour Entertainment, joint artist brokerage.
No matter how self-confident Yang Can is, he will not look to the top and own Hollywood giants like Beyoncé, Megan Fox, Johnny Depp, Harrison Ford.
Faced with such a dilemma, Yang Can's mind is so clear. After all, this is not his country. There are many powerful enemies and complex forces. Now any step at the top seems too lonely. In the embryonic stage of development, he Need some strong allies.
In the United States, as long as the company can be named, whether it is a record, a film, or a television station, almost the company hides the names of Rockefeller, Morgan, DuPont, and Mellon.. The names of these consortia, in short, are related to the domestic situation. Similarly, the top needs some help.
This is probably the reason why Wu Bin strongly opposed his coming to the United States before. Yang Can now deeply feels that he has insufficient chips in his hands.
Fortunately, he also has a strong hole card, the China Hometown Association.
On Friday, Yang Can called Tian Guorong and booked a meeting time with several fellow members in Los Angeles. Although Yang Can rescued these people last time, he still wasn’t too convenient to organize them. Fu Lao just said he wanted them. Cooperate with yourself, but didn't say how to cooperate.
Fortunately, Tian Guorong readily agreed to help.
On Saturday night, Yang Can drove Mai Weijian to Tian Guorong’s villa in San Francisco. The secretary at the door, Xiao Wang, knew Yang Can and introduced Yang Can into the living room with a smile on his face and said, "Uncle Tian and they are waiting for you."
Several people sat around a small round table in the corner. Tian Guorong waved to Yang Can. Yang Can smiled and walked over. The room was elegant, with antique furniture and potted green "color" plants. Clear and elegant.
Liu Feifei, Zheng Kai, and Huang Wendao, managers of the western district of the amc cinema company, are all acquaintances, but there is a fat man with gray hair in his fifties who he does not know.
Tian Guorong smiled and introduced that the fat man was his close friend Zeng Huaiqiu, and he didn't say what he was doing, but the energy of 512 made Yang Can's heart startled.
"Listen to Xiao Yang first." Tian Guorong said with a smile.
Yang Can knew that Tian Guorong had summoned so many people, and his attitude of supporting him was quite obvious. Although Yang Can felt that there was something wrong with this, he would not bother him as long as it was beneficial to him.
Tian Guorong picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, and said, "Everyone will help you, just say it."
Yang Can nodded slightly. He knew that a word he made at random now, a decision, is likely to affect the future, destiny, and future life of a person or even a group of people. Those people who want to come in front of him are also waiting nervously. Follow Fu Lao's arrangement.
Yang Can probably explained the whole thing, and didn't point out a solution, but just pointed out his general direction, and threw the problem to Tian Guorong for a ruling.
Tian Guorong frowned slightly. He couldn't completely "get out" the context after hearing these things, so he could only turn his head and ask Liu Feifei:
"Koyanagi, what do you think about the top-tier acquisition of acting schools?"
Liu Feifei has been thinking with her head down, when she was asked, she responded softly:
"The top-notch strategy is indeed very ingenious. If you want to take root in Los Angeles, this is a good way to lay a solid foundation, but I suggest that this matter should be slowed down. The top-notch can first buy a training school like caa, and then recruit. Young actors will slowly cultivate their backbones, as short as three years and as long as five years. It is not difficult to get the elite of the team."
Yang Can listened, frowning in her heart. This Liu Feifei is obviously not an expanding industrialist. Her method is not infeasible, but if she is willing to wait three or five years, why bother to come to Los Angeles now, in the mainland. Isn't it better to lay the foundation
Tian Guorong frowned, probably guessing that Yang Can disagrees with this method. Many simple things in China become complicated when they arrive in the United States.
Feeling a bit stiff in the atmosphere, Zeng Huaiqiu squinted and looked at Huang Wendao suddenly, while looking at Yang Can again, suddenly laughed and suggested:
"Lao Tian, I have a way. You don't think it is. Yang Can is going to buy a decent acting school? I heard that Los Angeles Irvine Performing Arts Academy is good. Maybe you can try to buy it.
Irvine Academy of Performing Arts? Yang Can’s first reaction when he heard the name was "confusion." He had never heard of the name, but Zeng Huaiqiu's consciousness had a very high evaluation of this college.
After hearing this, Feifei Liu shook her head directly: "The Irvine Academy of Performing Arts is indeed a good one. It can be regarded as a formal college of performing arts, but the problem is that it is a college under the city's "government". Chinese people want to buy it through the city's "government". Approval, this is too difficult." In his tone, I felt that this matter was not very reliable.
It is no wonder that the school under the city's "government" is no wonder, Yang Can laughed blankly.
"Of course it's impossible at the moment, but isn't it in the election period? As long as Huang Wendao can be elected mayor, then the acquisition will become feasible." The fat on Zeng Huaiqiu's face smiled together, looking very proud.
Yang Can’s eyes instinctively turned to Huang Wendao, who had been silent and speechless beside him. This Los Angeles city senator, he had already seen from the consciousness of the people around him that Huang Wendao’s election for mayor this time was not very promising, so The premise of Zeng Huaiqiu's proposal is rather vague.
Tian Guorong's eyes wandered over Yang Can and Huang Wendao, thinking about something, Zeng Huaiqiu has always been resourceful, and of course he would not make an impractical suggestion.
Did he overlook something? Hearing Lao Zeng’s tone seems to want to bring Yang Can and Huang Wendao together. Although Huang Wendao is a city senator, the biggest flaw now is that his Chinese background is not taken seriously in the Democratic Party, and the propaganda power is simply not comparable. Other competitors.
Yang Can.. By the way, isn’t this Yang Can the most frightening media person in the country? Before, this kid in Nanshi just used a newspaper to make Nanshi change half of the leadership team, and the whole country is dismissed every year because of him. There are dozens of officials, and his keen media sense is absolutely the most terrifying person in a social election system like the United States.
Looking at the look between Zeng Huaiqiu's eyebrows, Tian Guorong suddenly realized that this was definitely not his sudden thought, but a premeditated plan. It was Fu Lao's meaning, so it meant that it was Wu's Foundation
If this point is connected, Tian Guorong probably has a spectrum in his heart. This matter is getting more and more interesting. The Wu Fund actually took a candidate who would support the Xue family. This is a strong alliance. The special talents like Yang Can are used in the general election. How about it
It seems that a huge chess game is slowly being opened...
