The Goddess Shines on America

Chapter 22: , I have a dream

   "Hey, do you see anything?"

   Across the street from No.7 Vinton Street in the night, Sergey asked in the police car.

   "It seems that someone is going to speak, and Alice is under him."

Paulin looked at the opposite side with a night vision binoculars, and across the two or three meters high glass on the second floor of Room 7, she clearly saw that surrounded by a group of people, a blond man was standing on the stairs, apparently preparing to say What.

   As for their protection goal, Alice of the Wang family is indeed standing under the man.

   "Cut it, isn't it just a bunch of drunken guys."

   Sergey ate the second cold Big Mac, and that was his dinner: "I wish that serial murderer really came here, and shot the golden retriever bird!"

  At this time, in the huge mansion of Lawrence's family, many well-dressed guests were standing around the central staircase, Cici in dark green, and Alice in white, standing on either side of the stairs. On top of that, Mr. Lawrence was holding his wine glass gracefully, surrounded by his beloved wife who came quietly.

   It’s just that no one noticed that the two little beauties on the left and right have weird expressions, as if they were about to collapse.

   As the host of the party tonight, Mr. Lawrence is obliged to give a speech to the guests. At this moment, he was holding a wine glass, smiling at the surrounding guests, and speaking in a silent environment.

   "Today, I am happy to join you all. This will be the most influential private party in the history of the American entertainment industry."

   As expected...

   Alice's eyes twitched.

   Immediately afterwards, Mr. Lawrence said loudly.

"100 years ago, a group of freelance photographers accidentally discovered this place, surrounded by mountains and rivers, with pleasant scenery. Then, in the next ten years, as more and more photographers continued to come, Some small companies and independent filmmakers that evaded the control of patent companies began to flock and gradually formed a movie center."

"Before and after the First World War, some film masters such as Griffith and Chaplin won the world reputation for American films, and Wall Street consortiums intervened in the film industry, and the Hollywood Film City quickly Formed and risen."

   "However, today, 100 years later, we still have to face a fact that does not need to be disputed."

   The corners of Alice's eyes twitched uncontrollably, and she looked at Cici, and the other party really looked dizzy.

   As for the broad audiences, who are in the broad experience and quality of adults, they are all listening with great interest, or that is true.

Just listen to Mr. Lawrence continuing to say: "100 years later, under the shackles of the oil economic crisis and the rise of the European film market, the development of Hollywood is oppressed. Today, 100 years later, the American people are still living in a sea of ​​material abundance. On an isolated island of poverty. Today, 100 years later, American literary and art professionals are still working hard and realizing that they are the founders of the resurgence of American culture after World War II."

   Faced with Mr. Lawrence’s adaptation, Alice was noncommittal. As for his adapted speech itself, it is indeed true. Although her current involvement in the literary and artistic circles is limited, she still knows that the last period of Hollywood's development was before and after World War II, and the current European films are indeed quite exciting, which once surpassed Hollywood's prestige.

   It’s just that I suddenly attended an industry gathering. This sudden sense of incompatibility...

Just listen to Mr. Lawrence’s speech continuing: “As long as the audience continues to show great enthusiasm for Hollywood movies, I will never be satisfied; as long as our tired bodies are running around, we can’t be in the motels by the highway or in the city When the hotel is resting, I will never be satisfied when I read a wonderful novel. No, I will not be satisfied!"

"I have a dream, I dream of one day, I can live in a city full of vitality; I dream one day, I can see the scene of the crew filming while walking on the street; I dream one day, every one People in the film industry can greet me very warmly-Lawrence, I am glad to meet you!"

   "At this time last year, my dream had been half realized. I have moved to this city, lived in a beautiful community, and lived happily with my beloved wife and lovely daughter."

   The adaptation stage is finally over, but compared with the previous sentences, the standard is really much worse. Alice believed that it wasn't just her thinking in her heart. Although it was hidden very subtle, the smiling faces of the surrounding audience were indeed strange.

   "When I take a walk on the street, I can indeed see the crew filming at any time, especially in West Hollywood and Mulholland Road, where cameras are turning almost every day!"

   "However, friends, please don't laugh at me, because after all, people's ambitions will continue to grow. After living in Los Angeles for a whole year, I have a new idea."

   "Establish a movie company!"

   When Mr. Lawrence yelled these words in a high tone, all the guests in the living room were silent.

   Then, a loud noise suddenly sounded.

   "Film company!? Lawrence, you're just a venture capital manager!"

   "Are you leaving your job? You will no longer engage in venture capital work in the future!?"

   "Okay, Lawrence, you also want to share the movie market? It seems that we will become competitors in the future?"

In this constant noise, Mr. Lawrence always toasted everyone: "I know you have a lot of questions, but the establishment of a film company is indeed my childhood dream. I have been a venture capital manager for many years, and I have accumulated A lot of funds and contacts...Of course, all of you present here are my friends. So, for my future entrepreneurial career, I hope you can support me and help my career reach its peak!"

   Although too many people were full of doubts, since Mr. Lawrence said so, no one would be stingy with his applause. For a while, the audience was filled with applause again. Many people are yelling constantly, but in this tumult, they can't hear much.

   One by one, Alice and Cici are also slapping their palms hard, with happy and surprised expressions on their faces.

   at least on the surface it looks like this.

   "Is your father crazy?"

   After the speech, in an inconspicuous corner, Alice yelled in a low voice, she was surprised.

  At this time, the banquet continued, and the guests once again entered the rhythm of gathering together, and Mr. Lawrence was surrounded by many people. After all, whether it is the speech he just adapted the famous piece or the final promotion of his decision to set up a film company, it is enough to become the most important topic tonight.

   "No, he actually had this idea for a long time, but I really didn't expect that he would actually give such a speech, and what would he say... I have a dream... What is this situation?"

   To say that Alice was surprised, Cici pressed her forehead hard, as if she was about to faint at any time. Fortunately, this is her own home, and the corner she found is just right, so she can avoid the sight of others.

   "This is not surprising, if I remember correctly, when I came to your house last weekend to play, I did come across... a very strange scene."

Alice’s mouth twitched and looked into the corner of the living room. Mr. Lawrence was chatting with Paramount’s CEO: “I saw him reciting Martin Luther King’s "I Have a Dream" passionately. It was really passionate. Cici , Said you don’t be angry, I thought he was..."

   "The brain is abnormal, right? I'm not angry, don't look at my dad as a venture capital manager, his essence...well, UU reading www.uukanshu.com, you can see from his dressing style."

  Alice looked around. Among the black suits in the audience, Mr. Lawrence's slim-fit pink suit was really dazzling, as bright as a peacock mixed with chickens, but he was also blonde.

   "I understand, the literary youth in Form Two, Cici, looking at your father, I suddenly have a dream."

   "...you want to make a movie too?"

   "That's not true, but I really want to write a children's magical literature, a seven-part book. Your father can move in and become a character directly."

   "That's his honor..."

   Alice really felt that tonight was not in vain. She thought it was just a show for her friend. After all, she also found out on the spot that she and Cici were the only two peers at the party.

   But who would have thought that Cici's father would make such a statement?

   Although it has nothing to do with her, tonight is really not in vain!

   "Uncle Lawrence?"

   So, when Cici went to the bathroom for some reason, she quickly came to the corner of the living room. Mr. Lawrence has finished talking with the Paramount CEO and is standing with another industry person.

   "Oh, it's Alice, did you have a good time tonight?"

  Mr. Lawrence lifted a champagne glass to her: "Let me introduce, this is my daughter's good friend, Alice-Wang, who also lives on Vinton Street."

   Standing in front of Alice was a strange man, a 60-year-old elder who was thankful. He was wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses, and just standing there, the elegant demeanor couldn't hide it.
