Chapter 611 A Book Written by a Billionaire
"Duan, I listened to your new single. Amazing!"
"Thank you! I really like that song too."
"Duan, I think you'll get the grand prize tomorrow night. Claire baby, I'm not saying your songs are bad, it's just that you're unlucky, Duan's album this year is amazing."
Claire smiled: "I don't mind if I lose to Duan. But I believe I can get the grand prize sooner or later."
"Of course," Duan Xiaochen took her hand affectionately, "maybe you will take away this year's laurel crown. Your songs are also great!"
"By the way, Duan, why don't you introduce us to this handsome man next to you? I think he should be your mysterious boyfriend!" After a while, someone finally asked.
"He is indeed my boyfriend!" Duan Xiaochen laughed.
At that moment, a trace of unnaturalness flashed in the eyes of several male stars.
"But he's not mysterious!" Duan Xiaochen added.
A male star with black curly hair, deep and stylish features, slightly dark skin, and a typical Mediterranean appearance shrugged, "He's very mysterious, no one here knows him. Is he an outsider?"
"Oh, no, strictly speaking, he's not an outsider," Claire laughed. "Chris, haven't you been looking for an autograph from the author of A Song of Ice and Fire?"
The curly-haired star was taken aback and blinked quickly, "Sorry, you're Hemingway? Oh, sorry, I'm so rude. I mean, I admire you so much! Yours is awesome! The ones you wrote to Duan. The song is also the best work in the music world in recent years! It's an honor to meet you!"
The word he uses is "honor", the original is "honor" in English.
Using this word means more formal and solemn.
It is to regard Du Caige as a person with a higher rank than him.
Of course it is.
Due to his camera memory and more attention to entertainers in the entertainment industry, Du Caige now knows a lot of people.
This handsome and compelling Chris, named Christo Esposito, 36 years old, is a descendant of the olive country, and is said to be a cousin of Collidio.
He is a famous movie star,
Nominated for two Oscars for Best Actor, but never won an award.
In addition, he won an Emmy Award for Best Actor and a Golden Globe Award for Best Actor.
Although he is not an Oscar winner, his status is still quite high.
Du Caige has seen his movies, and his acting skills are also extraordinary.
If he was like Al Pacino, supported by good works such as "The Godfather", "Scent of a Woman" and "The Wire", he would have won the Oscar title long ago.
Du Caige took a step forward and smiled, "Thehonorismine."
His answer is also more polite, not arrogant.
Chris showed a slightly flattered expression.
The name "Hemingway" is not particularly loud in the Stars and Stripes, at least far less than Duan Xiaochen's reputation.
But this is because Hemingway has never been to the Stars and Stripes before, and even when "A Song of Ice and Fire" was released, Hemingway didn't come in person.
The media in the Stars and Stripes will naturally not report such a person.
And those who really know know the weight of the name.
Again, in the entertainment industry, the most glamorous entertainers, including actors and singers, are actually at the bottom of the food chain.
And content creators, excellent songwriters, screenwriters, and directors, are the predators in this circle.
Artists can only bow their heads in front of these content creators unless they reach the level of the best actor and queen, and the singer.
At the top of the entertainment industry is capital.
No matter how big-name artists, they are just playthings for capital.
If you can make money for capital, you may be treated well, just like a pure-blooded pet.
If you can't, or don't want to make good money for capital... Then you may be played with miserably.
On Earth, those Korean actresses who died miserably have already exposed some shady scenes in the Korean entertainment industry with their lives, but is it useful?
They can't shake the capital one bit.
And how much darkness is hidden in those places that have not been exposed?
Chris respected Hemingway, not only because Hemingway was a quality content creator, but because he learned that Hemingway was a billionaire himself.
This is what Goldlin Press mentioned when promoting "A Song of Ice and Fire": This is a book written by a billionaire!
Hemingway is a major shareholder in a company with a market value of hundreds of billions of dollars, worth more than ten billion dollars.
Such a billionaire writes a book for you out of true love, generating electricity for love, not to be missed!
For this gimmick, many people bought a copy of "A Song of Ice and Fire" suspiciously, just to see how the thinking of billionaires is different from that of ordinary people.
The result is "really fragrant".
There is a joke circulating on the Internet: a fantasy writer who was on the New York Times bestseller list said in a sour tone at a writers' party after "A Song of Ice and Fire" continued to dominate the list:
Hemingway was so rich, why did he come to write books and fight for jobs with us? A fantasy book, why it has won the best-seller list for weeks in a row, maybe it was paid for. Anyway, he is so rich, writing books is not for making money, but for fame.
But then he couldn't hold back after all, and asked someone to borrow a copy of "A Song of Ice and Fire" to read.
At the next party, when someone asked him again, after a long silence, he sighed and said, "I don't know if Hemingway runs a company, does he have time to write a book? It would be bad if his writing was influenced by mundane things. Fantasy is the type It's been decades since it's been published, and while there are a lot of great books, there hasn't been that kind of really great work. Now the growth of the fantasy market is a bit stagnant, and we desperately need a few really great books to drive the entire fantasy market. development. I hope Hemingway can maintain the standard and complete this great work.”
Whether this joke is true or not is beyond question.
There's no need to look into it.
In short, the name "Hemingway" is only a little famous to ordinary people in the Stars and Stripes.
A writer, songwriter, and billionaire who can't be beaten by eight poles has never appeared on the land of the Stars and Stripes, nor is he worthy of the attention of the great and proud people of the Stars and Stripes.
But for people in the cultural and entertainment circles, "Hemingway" is a name that cannot be ignored!
Not only did Chris respect Du Caige very much, but several of the stars next to him also put away their frivolous and joking attitude before. Obviously, they had heard a little about Hemingway's name and dared not be too presumptuous.
A star may dare to utter nonsense, quarrel, even abuse, tear up, and wave fists in front of a star with a bigger name than himself.
But never dare to do so in front of billionaires.
Because, a star with a bigger name than him actually has nothing to do with him.
And billionaires can block him.
