Chapter 209 Los Angeles New Year's Eve
In this era of collective decline of physical records.

Although the "Phoenix" album has only been released for a few months, with the sales of 470 million copies in North America, it is already the best-selling album in the United States this year, and the total global sales are expected to break through the 1500 million mark.

Judging from the dynamics of mutual friends on Facebook.

Ed Oliver, the manager of Bluegrass Music, not only bought a villa next to the Malibu beach, but also replaced the old broken car with a Mercedes-Benz S-Class, and even showed off the Patek Philippe tourbillon perpetual calendar watch he just bought online.

It's no wonder that he would be ashamed and treat Su Rui as a cash cow.

A single record brought Ed Oliver back to life in an instant and returned to the peak of his life. Compared with the profits of millions of dollars, his face was nothing, and he had long since lost it along with his moral integrity.

According to Su Rui's understanding of him, the next step is probably to fall in love again, then get married, and finally become destitute again, and move out of the house he bought with his own money.

Probably because of the lack of love since childhood, there is something wrong with his psychology, this guy always likes the same money-worshiping scumbag, and he never tires of it.

This has nothing to do with Suri, I just occasionally check the Facebook Moments for fun.

Tonight is New Year's Eve.

The organizer of the concert in Times Square, New York, has sent out invitations many times since mid-November, asking Suri to be a guest at the live concert.

However, he had already been on that stage a few years ago, and it was meaningless to be noisy, so he found a reason to refuse.

Only newcomers would pay attention to the stage in New York's Times Square. Now that he has returned to a superstar, Suri has no shortage of fame.

You don't have to go to New York for New Year's Eve, and Los Angeles is also quite lively.

There are fireworks displays at Universal Studios and Disneyland, and there are open-air music festivals and wild parties along the beach in Santa Monica.

until evening.

Suri still hadn't figured out where to go tonight. He had received many party invitations in Hollywood, and he was dazzled for a while.

In my mansion, when I was checking the news with my laptop, I happened to see a press release about the second episode of "The Walking Dead" tonight.

Go in with curiosity.

I saw that the editor put in a lot of hard work, analyzing the first episode clearly from all angles, and there are still photos of Ashton in it, saying that his acting skills have matured a lot.

The comments below are more interesting.

The one with the most likes reads—"Director Dog, I was in a bit of a state, but suddenly it disappeared, making me feel uncomfortable throughout the holiday!"

Below it reads - "Finally!! I hope it can become a classic like "Resident Evil", adding more fighting and adventure plots."

Keep swiping down.

One wrote - "The makeup is so realistic and it's always daytime, it's creepy."

Underneath is a simple - "Cool!! :)"

For some reason, Su Rui immediately thought of the singing Miss Avril, that strange woman who always wears smoky makeup, and often likes to leave comments like this.

I've been busy with various things recently, so I haven't posted many new posts. It seems that I haven't seen Avril for a while, and it should be holding back new songs.

Inspiration is a thing that cannot be found, even a genius will encounter difficulties.

Unlike Su Rui, there are too many songs in his head, and sometimes he can recall some songs in a daze, because he is too lazy to find a pen to record, and it is forgotten in the back of his mind. It is difficult to resonate with these talented singers and empathize with them .

Finding that the positive reviews accounted for the vast majority, Su Rui was in a particularly good mood.

When he saw a comment in Korean, he was a little curious, clicked on the passage and chose to translate it, and saw that it said "It's just plagiarism from "Resident Evil". This refers to our ancient zombie ideas."

Su Rui suddenly became ill.

I began to regret my cheap hands, and the big festival was almost like stepping on dog dung.

A few years ago, when South Korea became a developed country, it began to have a kind of self-confidence. Coupled with the rise of the entertainment industry, a bunch of netizens felt like they were beaten up, thinking they were awesome.

Considering that South Korea lacks real pillar industries, whether it is automobiles, home appliances, ships, electronic manufacturing, etc., they are all easily replaced. Now it is considered a temporary success, and it is estimated that it will not be able to jump for many years.

Now that he closed the computer and threw it on the sofa, Su Rui asked, "Jia Ya is gone?"

Daddario nodded and said, "Yes, I borrowed the housekeeper's car and went home for the holiday."

"Okay, who's party do you want to go to tonight? Fireworks shows are boring, you can see them every year at home, I think Tom Hanks is very good at organizing parties."

"really?"

Daddario was still young, and reminded:

"I feel that the guests at his party will be older. When the time comes, a group of women will talk about children and education, while the men will talk about the economy and the international situation. It may be boring."

Tom Hanks is now more than 50 years old, it is estimated that the party will not be too lively.

Su Rui thought for a while, then said:

"What about Leonardo's masked makeup party? If you want to attend, you have to prepare a mask. His party should be relatively young and fashionable."

Leonardo DiCaprio, actor of "Titanic".

Daddario smiled and said:

"Just go to this party. When I was very young, I thought he was the most handsome man in the world. I have been in Hollywood for so long, and I haven't seen Leonardo with my own eyes."

Su Rui replied calmly:
"In "Titanic", he was at the pinnacle of his appearance, and then he went downhill all the way, and he has nothing to do with the word handsome."

As an actor, Daddario certainly understands that a character is a character, and perhaps in reality it is a completely different character.

She pressed:

"When you were a teenager, which female star did you like? Jennifer Connelly? Charlize Theron?"

"No, no, these are not. I was obsessed with studying and couldn't extricate myself. It seems that I have never experienced the stage of chasing stars. I spent all my thoughts on how to make money."

After Suri finished speaking, he picked up the latest issue of the "Los Angeles Times" and showed it to Daddario.

Above is his photo, describing an article about Netflix Entertainment, which is trying to upend the tradition of Hollywood film and television production.

He laughed:
"It turns out that I succeeded. It's not my character to have a crush on someone through the screen. They waste their time on other things, but I have been able to put my arms around a big star like you."

Daddario smiled and said:
"This reminds me of a joke. Many girls in college don't like nerds in the first few years of enrollment. However, when the employment season comes, nerds who have found a good job are the most popular, and they start to be chased by girls?"

"That's right, it's too realistic, isn't it, they have taken all the benefits."

Su Rui spread his hands and said:

"But I was different. I was very popular from the first day I entered the university. I even had fans greet me at the gate of Stanford University."

Daddario was a little jealous, and said with emotion: "It's a pity that I didn't know you at that time. Would there be a girl who didn't like you in college?"

Su Rui simply packed up and was about to go out, and said:
"Yes, many people's racial prejudice is deeply rooted in their bones. Don't look at us Chinese as a minority in the United States. Next time I have time, I will take you to China to let you know what a superstar is..."
