Chapter 615 I am blind
Collidio thought about it all before inviting guests.
300 people, in his opinion, is the limit for this mansion.
If you invite more people, it will appear overcrowded and make everyone feel uncomfortable.
But how could he have expected that there would be a Hemingway at the party?
Famous writer, top songwriter, billionaire freak all in one.
As a famous writer, Hemingway is the object of publishers scrambling to please.
Every publisher wants to talk about the sequel to "A Song of Ice and Fire", and at least they have to be familiar with it. Even if they can't get the next few volumes of "A Song of Ice and Fire", they can book other novels.
Hemingway, as the songwriter, is the object of the singer's flock.
Every singer wants to ask him for a song. If he can get one or two high-quality songs from him, it may be the basis for winning the song king and queen throne.
This is not an exaggeration at all. In fact, at a certain level, everyone's singing skills and voice quality are almost the same.
You have to say that Zhang Moumou's voice is more recognizable than Li Moumou's voice... That's purely because the fans are hilarious, and it's just random fabrications from the media.
At this time, if there is a suitable song that can fully display its own characteristics and can make a deep impression on fans, it can overwhelm a group of singers with comparable strength and claim the throne.
And everyone wants to be friends with a billionaire.
Even if you can't be friends, it's okay to be a little brother.
If there are no vacancies for the younger brother, many people don't mind being a dog for a billionaire.
After all, people are more tired than dogs these days.
Being a dog is much happier than being a human being.
Seeing the constant influx of people, crowding his mansion, and seeing Hemingway being surrounded by people, Collidio could only show a slightly bitter smile, feeling uneasy.
His worst fear is self-defeating, an opportunity to curry favor with Hemingway, only to have Hemingway annoyed by a bunch of unrelated people.
If Hemingway was in a bad mood because of this,
Even angering him would be worth the loss.
...
Although Du Caige was annoyed, he didn't say that he wanted to anger Collidio.
In the final analysis, it was because he did not have the self-consciousness of being "superior", he had not developed enough arrogance, and he did not feel that he was great.
Although he was busy socializing, which made him miserable, he just wanted to escape.
"Hemingway!" An arrogant middle-aged white man handed over a hardcover version of "A Song of Ice and Fire". After seeing his face clearly, several people surrounding Du Caige quietly took a few steps back.
"Can you sign my name?"
This is not the first one to ask him for an autograph tonight. Du Caige glanced at the other party and smiled wearily, "Okay, Mr. Mayer."
"So, you know me." A smug smile appeared on Mayer's arrogant face.
"Of course, I've seen your "Lost at the End of Days" and "The Thirteenth Victim" and liked them very much. But frankly, my favorite is still "Mississippi", although the box office of that movie is not good enough, But the movement of the lens is textbook-level, and the application of lens language is fascinating.”
"You're very discerning!" Mayer raised his voice, "'Mississippi' is my favorite!"
Hehe, Du Caige actually took a look after seeing Mayer's interview and found out that Mayer thinks that his best film is "Mississippi", which is generally a box office.
But I haven't had time to watch the full version, I just watched some clips, I thought it was really good, and then I also read the film review.
This director, who is called "egotistical narcissist" by many media, is indeed one of the best directors in Hollywood. The use of lens language makes Du Caige feel a bit ashamed.
But this director feels a little too comprehensive and blames him. Trying to put everything in the movie often leads to a protracted rhythm and a long-winded narrative.
Du Caige lowered his head and quickly signed the hardcover version of "A Song of Ice and Fire" and handed it back to Meyer.
He thought it was over, but Mayer said, "Let's just sit down for a while and talk alone? I have an idea, and I promise you'll be interested."
Du Caige spread his hands: "Mr. Mayer, although I would also like to talk to you about movies, but now, I probably don't have time to talk to you alone."
Mayer arrogantly turned a half circle, glanced over the people around him, raised his head and said, "Care what they do, a bunch of idiots. Let them wait aside!"
As he spoke, he could not help but pull Du Caige's arm.
... No wonder this guy has a bad reputation, even if he was touted as an Oscar-winning actress, he publicly expressed that he did not want to cooperate with him.
This mouth really stinks.
Of course Du Caige refused to go with him.
It's not that I'm afraid of offending people...
Well, I'm afraid of offending people.
Du Caige has such a temperament, a peaceful personality, and always does not want to conflict with others.
Only when he is on the set can he restrain this instinctive personality, focus on his work, and scold the cast and crew as he should.
So he stood there and said euphemistically, "Mr. Mayer, it's definitely inconvenient for me now. Either, I'll find you later today, and you can enjoy the party first. Or we follow each other on social accounts, and we'll meet when we're free. connect."
Mayer said angrily, "God, why are you wasting your time with these people?"
And then someone next to him said boldly, "Mr. Mayer, Hemingway has the right to do whatever he wants. If he doesn't want to talk to you alone, you should just walk away and wait silently until it's convenient for him."
Mayer glared angrily and glared at the speaker.
It was a tall beauty, a typical Latino beauty, with long curly hair, dark skin, and beautiful eyes.
Her facial features are not particularly perfect, especially for Du Caige's aesthetics, she will feel that her appearance is not delicate and too aggressive.
But her figure is really impeccable. The parts that should be round are round, and the parts that should be thin are as thin as a water snake, like a ripe peach, full of hormones all over her body.
Only the word "sexy" is enough to describe her.
In this way, it may not be respectful, and even has a tendency to objectify women.
But it's really like this, seeing her, the first thought in a man's mind must be "sex".
Mayer looked at her, looked back a little too much, then looked at Du Caige and forced a smile: "Okay, Hemingway, let's talk later."
"Let's talk later, Mr. Mayer." Du Caige breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, the beautiful Latino woman who had just opened her mouth to save Du Caige stepped forward and stretched out her hand, "I'm Michelle, Michelle Rodrigo."
"Nice to meet you. Your singing voice is impressive," Du Caige smiled, "your Latin album was very distinctive before. I remember that you have also performed in several TV series, and your acting skills are not bad. In this country, there are not many amphibious stars who span film and television and singing."
Michelle was flattered and said, "I didn't expect you to know me, Mr. Hemingway. In that case, I won't waste your time now, can I leave a contact? I have music questions for you later. In addition, I also want to ask you to sing. Of course, I know this is unlikely, but I still have a little hope."
Du Caige smiled and said, "Let's talk about it."
Of course he couldn't agree right away.
Why!
People looking for a song with him can line up from New York to Los Angeles.
Although he had a good impression of the man.
And I have heard Michelle's songs before, and I am really amazed by her voice.
But cooperation depends on many other factors.
"You leave your social account," Du Caige pointed to his head, "I have a good memory, and I won't forget it. I'll add you later."
After Michelle reported her social account ID, she withdrew consciously, and walked to the corner of the room with a white young man. This made Du Caige's impression of her a third better.
At this moment, a magic claw quietly stretched out behind him, pinching the soft flesh around his waist.
Although Du Caige's eyes widened in pain, he kept his smile unchanged, and his expression management was in place.
Duan Xiaochen leaned over and spoke Chinese in his ear, exhaling like blue: "Is your heart moving? Well? You must have reacted. Tell me honestly, have you? I won't be angry, this girl is really beautiful, if you like her , I can understand."
Her expression was smiling, and everyone thought she was talking sweet words to Du Caige.
Du Caige looked righteous: "I'm blind, so I don't know if she's pretty."
"what about me?"
"It's not a question of whether you are beautiful or not, you are my heart."
"Hmph, the more dishonest you are, the sweeter your words are. It's all because of your guilty conscience! I haven't seen you say a few nice words to coax me." Duan Xiaochen looked angry, but the corners of her mouth twitched slightly, showing that she was actually Already elated.
After greeting more than a dozen star artists, Du Caige finally became a little empty, and there were not many people left.
These are obviously not celebrities, but all dressed up as business elites.
Du Caige guessed that they should be people from major publishing houses.
