At this time, Schwarzenegger is undoubtedly the focus of the entire Hollywood, the entire state of California, and even the entire United States.
It is not uncommon for actors to become politicians in the United States. After all, President Ronald Reagan, who came from Hollywood, set an example before him. However, this is the first time in American history that an action actor like Schwarzenegger who was not born in the United States has entered politics.
Schwarzenegger himself is full of ambitions at this moment, just waiting for the inauguration ceremony to end and officially take office as the governor of California. He believes that he can become the most outstanding governor in the history of California, and even the most outstanding governor in the history of the United States.
Seeing that the inauguration ceremony was just one day away, Schwarzenegger was excited and nervous at the same time, and he had already begun discussing with his staff his various policies and actions after taking office.
He and his staff secretly pulled out all his personal resources and made a very clear pivot table. There are several major factors in the weight calculation in this table: the person's social influence, wealth value, resource conversion value, industry development space, and resource utilization difficulty.
This pivot table uses a systematic algorithm to calculate all these weights and display the results in three very important dimensions:
The first one is the ranking of Schwarzenegger's current contacts who can mobilize the highest resources;
The second one is the ranking of Schwarzenegger’s connections with the highest potential to mobilize resources in the future;
The third one is the ranking of Schwarzenegger's current connections that are worth investing the most energy in maintaining.
Except for the first dimension where Li Mu was not ranked first, in the remaining two dimensions, Li Mu was ranked first, and he was far ahead of the second place.
Through this perspective table, Schwarzenegger can digitally see the value of getting along with each person extremely clearly, and can even make interesting calculations from this, such as:
In the third dimension, Li Mu's points are more than the second, third, fourth and fifth place combined.
In a sense, for the greatest political benefit, even if Schwarzenegger gives up all the second to fifth positions, as long as he fully manages the relationship chain of Li Mu, the whole relationship will still be profitable.
Schwarzenegger himself was not very good at doing such arithmetic problems, but when the results were intuitively displayed in front of him in the form of a perspective table, he looked forward to Li Mu's arrival even more.
Just in time, his assistant told him that he had received an email from Assistant Li Mu. The email said that Li Mu's sister liked Celine Dion very much and asked him to help arrange it.
After hearing this, the first thing Schwarzenegger did was to call Spielberg, who had just returned to the United States a few days ago.
Because Schwarzenegger remembered that Li Mu seemed to be an only child, so how could he have a younger sister? He needs to find out the specific situation from Spielberg first, and then figure out how to arrange it.
Spielberg was a little confused when he heard Schwarzenegger ask him who Li Mu's sister was, but when Schwarzenegger told the content of the email, he immediately guessed that the sister Li Mu was talking about was, It should be Du Wei.
So he hurriedly told Schwarzenegger, "If I guess correctly, the sister Li Mu mentioned should be Du Wei, the heroine of the movie "Flying Tigers" I just finished filming, although she is not related by blood to Li Mu." , but I still suggest that you take it seriously, because Li Mu loves Du Wei very much, no less than his own sister."
Schwarzenegger nodded immediately and said, "I know, I'll call Celine right now."
Celine Dion is Canadian, and her husband is also Canadian. Her living habits are similar to those of most Canadian celebrities. She focuses her career on the United States, and her life is split 50/50 between the United States and Canada.
When the weather is cold, Canadian stars like Celine Dion will leave the cold Canada and go to sunny Los Angeles, and then return to Canada when the weather warms up. This habit is very similar to that of the people in Northeast China. In winter, I will go to Nanhai Island to spend the winter, and then go back when the weather warms up.
Moreover, the transportation between the United States and Canada is very convenient. For these big stars who often have private jets, traveling between the two places is not a problem at all.
It is now late October, and the weather in Montreal, Canada is already a bit cold. Celine Dion originally planned to go to Los Angeles with her husband in the near future. Schwarzenegger's inauguration was just around the corner, so they were ready to leave early.
Although Celine Dion is a singer, her career is inseparable from Hollywood. The reason why she became a global hit and became a top singer in the world is mainly due to the support of the Hollywood film industry, James Cameron's "Titanic" became popular all over the world, and Celine Dion, as the singer of the theme song "My Heart Will Go On", also became a world-class top singer.
Because of her deep relationship with Hollywood, Celine Dion has very good relationships with many first-line actors, directors, and film and television producers. She has also been friends with Schwarzenegger for many years. This time her friend was elected governor of California, so she naturally wanted to be there. congratulate.
At this time, Celine Dion, who was packing her luggage, received a call from Schwarzenegger. After answering the call, she smiled and joked: "Mr. Governor is so busy, why do you have time to call me?"
Schwarzenegger said with a smile: "Celine, you should wait until I am sworn in to be called Mr. Governor, otherwise the name will not be justified."
Celine Dion said: "The moment you win the election, you are already the governor of California."
Schwarzenegger laughed and said, "Celine, I'm calling you because I have something to ask you."
Celine Dion said hurriedly: "You don't have to be so polite to me. If you ask me anything, I will do my best."
Schwarzenegger said: "Mr. Li Muli, the founder of Makino Technology, will also come to my inauguration ceremony, and his assistant specially sent me an email to tell me something related to you."
"It has something to do with me?!" Celine Dion asked in surprise: "Can you tell me more specifically?"
For Celine Dion, she has heard of Li Mu’s name for a long time. She even earned a lot of shares of online music copyright through YYtunes. Like all Hollywood stars, Celine Dion also hopes to get to know the rich and powerful. , especially powerful people who have a lot of resources in their hands. Unfortunately, Li Mu is the strongest one in the eyes of Hollywood stars.
In fact, celebrities are very interesting existences. They are like a money printing machine, but what their money printing machine needs to inject is not paper and paint, but resources.
Whether they are movie stars, TV stars, singers, or comedians, each of them has a different conversion parameter. This parameter is like the thermal efficiency of an engine, which is determined based on their own abilities and conditions.
For example, a star like Michael Jackson is like the hexagram with the strongest thermal efficiency. If you import 1 point of resources, you can get 5 points of return;
Another example is a star like Schwarzenegger, whose thermal efficiency is not the strongest but is still first-rate. If he imports 1 point of resources, he can get 4 points of return;
Celine Dion is almost at the same level as Schwarzenegger. While these stars are working hard to improve their abilities and improve their "thermal efficiency", they are also trying every means to open a larger entrance and introduce more resources.
There are two very important issues here:
First, high photothermal efficiency is not enough. No matter how awesome the engine is, it will not run without oil. There are not too many people with top star power who are buried in the public, but these people are likely to sell vegetables all their lives, or spend their whole lives selling vegetables. They all live in obscurity in a small county town;
Second, it is useless to have too much varnish. No matter how much varnish you have, the result will be a mess if you meet the oil tiger who only drinks oil and does not work, such as that sweet girl who always has top resources invested but never becomes popular.
For a powerful star like Celine Dion, her problem falls into the first category. The thermal efficiency is enough, and the more oil, the better.
And Li Mu happens to be the one with the largest oil reserves in the world.
Therefore, as soon as Schwarzenegger talked about Li Mu and heard him say that it was also related to herself, Celine Dion immediately became excited.
Schwarzenegger said at this time: "Li Mu brought one of his sisters to attend my inauguration this time, and he specifically sent me an email to tell me that her sister likes you very much and wants to get to know you."
"Really?!" Celine Dion exclaimed.
This is simply a piece of pie-in-the-sky good news! Hollywood stars are trying their best to get to know Li Mu, but now, he is actually the idol of Li Mu's sister, and she also wants to get to know him. This is simply perfect!
Schwarzenegger said firmly: "Of course it is true. I called you just to check your time. I would like to invite Li Mu and her sister to have a private dinner in advance. If you can come to California early, If so, it’s best to come with me.”
Celine Dion hurriedly asked: "When?"
Schwarzenegger said: "Li Mu's private plane has taken off and will arrive in Sacramento in more than ten hours."
Celine Dion immediately said: "I was originally planning to leave tomorrow. If this is the case, then I will prepare to leave immediately."
"That's great." Schwarzenegger said, "I have one more thing to ask of you."
Celine Dion hurriedly said: "You say it."
Schwarzenegger said: "Let's see if there are any more commemorative gifts that can be given to sister Li Mu, such as your signed album and other peripheral souvenirs of yours."
"Oh!" Celine Dion suddenly understood and said, "Let's do this. I will give her a set of all my albums from my debut to now, and I will sign them when the time comes."
As she said that, she asked Schwarzenegger: "Do you know the name of Mr. Li's sister? There seems to be Chinese names and pinyin Chinese names. It's best to find them both. I can practice how to write them in Chinese on the plane. her name."
Schwarzenegger suddenly said excitedly: "Celine, you really helped me a lot! Thank you!"
Celine Dion smiled and said: "Arnold, to be honest, I should be the one thanking you!"
I'm really sorry. There was an abnormality in the child's heel blood results in the past few days. I suspected hypothyroidism. I have been worried about taking the child for a review. Fortunately, it has been ruled out. Thank God. Please forgive me for the delay in updating. Thank you!
