Coquettish Rebirth

"Mr. Jia...what did you say? Let me go to China? Perform? Sing?" Matt Damon was dumbfounded. Although he is a high-achieving student, he never thought that he might encounter such a problem!He...he is an actor!Not a singer!In the U.S., unless they are participating in some show or entertainment program, these film and television stars will sing along. At most, if they are very interested in singing, they will try to play a ticket. an album or something.But to be honest, the entertainment industry in Hollywood is very professional!Those who rely on acting skills to make a living depend on acting skills to make a living, and those who do not have enough acting skills want to become famous in singing and then turn around, that is not easy!It's not that a singer can just come and act in a movie!

In this location in Hollywood, the professionalism of the entertainment business is super strong!It's not that anyone can develop across borders, and there are no newcomers in the mid-to-low-end market like Hong Kong or Dawan who came from singing, and then went to singing and singing and acting in idol dramas!There won't be any star who is so good at film and television songs!Like Madonna or Michael Jackson, even if they act in a movie, at most they will be a cameo, even if they are the leading role, it’s just a play ticket for one or two shows. Who has ever heard of a singer with a background in acting? what?So Matt Damon seemed a bit at a loss for his "invitation" to Jia Hongjian!He just couldn't understand it!

But, he only heard Jia Hongjian smiled at him mysteriously, and then Jia Hongjian's eyes shot out a mysterious light, which drove Matt Damon off.It was like trying to lure him into some evil way!Then Jia Hongjian put his arms around Matt Damon's shoulders, pulled him to a quiet corner, and said mysteriously: "Matt, you know, I have always taken care of you. I still remember you When you went to China to audition, in order to have a similar body shape to the people of that era, in order to show that your character was born in the Great Depression, your physical fitness was poor, and you were severely malnourished even if you lost weight..."

As soon as Jia Hongjian said this, Matt Damon wanted to interrupt.Who knew that Jia Hongjian waved his hand.Signal him not to interrupt: "Listen to me, man. You were able to think so much about movies when you were broke, and you were able to be so professional. It really shocked me. I saw you like that. Even if you were No. You are not famous at all, but I also know that with your heart, you will definitely become a master in the future! Even if your various talents are limited, I will try my best to help you become a master... ..."

Listening, Matt Damon was so moved that he had to interject: "Sir, thank you, I know you are good to me, several movies have pulled me to play a supporting role, and then persuaded DreamWorks to accept I and Affleck's script, let us choose the director and actors... Sir, I will never forget your kindness to us!"

"Okay, okay, I think you are not just for you to remember forever. Listen to Matt, a few days ago, I discovered something. Do you know that there is a huge relationship between China and the United States? The information is asymmetric, and the transmission of news between the two countries is quite slow, and very little. Under such circumstances, do you know what I have discovered?" Jia Hongjian asked mysteriously. "What did you find?" Matt Damon became curious.

"I found that in China, except for Madonna and Michael Jackson, other people who are famous in the United States are all unfamiliar faces in China. Except for the title of an American star, they are all the same to the Chinese audience. And China is a country that is constantly opening up. The economic strength of this country is constantly rising. Due to various historical reasons, the self-confidence of the people of this country once fell to the bottom. Now the strength is slowly recovering, and the economy is developing rapidly. Under such circumstances, do you know what kind of latent needs their citizens have in their hearts?"

Matt Damon didn't know how to answer Jia Hongjian's question.Although this pony brother is seven or eight years older than Jia Hongjian, but in his thirties, he looks weak in front of Jia Hongjian like a fledgling young man, while Jia Hongjian looks like a cunning and successful person. .Brother Xiaoma thought about it, and at the end he answered: "Well... According to Maslow's hierarchy of human needs theory, after solving the problem of food and clothing, human beings will start to consider social and cultural needs?"

"Well... That's right... But I'm talking about another problem. Imagine a family that used to be very rich and famous in the upper class. But one day they went bankrupt, and they had to start all over again. They started to work hard, but after decades of hard work, the family gradually began to get rich again. At this point, what do they hope for? It is the approval of others! It is they who want to tell others that they are coming back again! Right? When Jia Hongjian asked, Matt Damon nodded of course!He can understand this feeling!

"So, in fact, the sooner the person who admits to this family, the sooner he will get the friendship of this family. Although it is a bit hypocritical to say so, but also, the closer to China in this era, the more recognition to China, the more It can maximize the friendship of Chinese people. In other words, there is a Canadian who went to China to study abroad and learn Chinese. Then, he likes Chinese traditional culture, so he apprenticed to a funny artist of traditional Chinese folk art as a master , this comedian is similar to your American talk show comedians, who make a living by telling all kinds of jokes. Then, such a foreigner actually went to learn the most traditional Chinese things, and he became famous all over the country. He immediately got a lot of opportunities to appear on China's national TV! It can be said that in China, apart from a series of political figures, he is the most widely recognized foreigner by the Chinese people!"

Having said this, Jia Hongjian paused and gave Matt Damon a moment to think. Then, he stopped talking about this topic and changed to another topic, "Perhaps you know that there is a music company under DreamWorks. Yes, and in China, there is a branch of DreamWorks. This branch networked a group of the most famous singers in the Greater China region, and after they networked, they found that these singers almost didn’t need to release albums, because relying on them With their current fame, they can hold concerts in China until they die! This is not an exaggeration at all! After our calculations, if a concert is held in every city in China that has the potential to buy tickets, basically a star will have one concert a week At the speed of two games, it takes 3 consecutive years to travel all over China! Such a country is bigger than the United States and has a population several times larger than the United States. Even though the average purchasing power is low, but there are more people, this is a huge market! If Everyone gives you 1 dollar, and the whole of China can give you a billion dollars!"

When he got here, Jia Hongjian watched Matt Damon's eyes light up, knowing that this talented student understood some of his meaning, and then he seduced Matt Damon: "And remember what I said first, Almost no foreigners are well-known in China. Whoever goes and gets close to China will gain friendship. Now, whoever goes is up to me. I think it is very suitable for you to go. If you go, say more good things about China , say you like Chinese culture, say you have been interested in China since you were a child, say that when you were young, there was a Chinese family next door, and that family was very kind to you...then sing two traditional Chinese songs, and then you will get more than 10 billion fans! Do you understand? You will become a representative of the American entertainment industry in China! You will become the first American star to break into this market of one billion people!

Then, let’s hype it up here again, and publicize that you have gained a large audience in China, that you are the most famous in China...and then you are also well-known in the United States?What's the use of being famous?After honing your acting skills, you can participate in commercial blockbuster performances - I can provide you with this opportunity, and then the remuneration for commercial blockbuster performances can be given to you to participate in independent small films or literary films to hone your acting skills, and then you After his acting skills have improved to a higher level, we can be the protagonists of commercial blockbusters, and even win Oscars! "

"Matt, do you understand?" Jia Hongjian patted Matt Damon's shoulder suddenly, "I am very optimistic about you! I have paved the way for your future! As long as you nod, the two Within a year, I can make you a representative of the hottest new generation of male actors in Hollywood! And you don’t have to pay anything, just follow the path I suggest to you! Are you willing?”

When he said this, Matt Damon's shock at the time was beyond words!How could a person think that another person would treat him better than his parents?Feeling the heat of Jia Hongjian's hand on his shoulder, an idea suddenly appeared in Matt Damon's head. He looked at Jia Hongjian cautiously, and asked, "Mr. Jia...you, why are you doing this?" ...Be nice to me? Are you...are you...are you..."

"Is it what? Damn! You don't think I'm interested in you? You bastard, go and see your face, what's so handsome? I'm normal straight, I have a girlfriend, damn it! Forget it , if you don’t want to go, I’ll find someone else!” Jia Hongjian was going crazy!Your sister, kindly sold you Matt Damon, you still think we are gay?Do you think we help you for your own sake?Meat!If it weren't for the fact that you would be famous in the future and you worked so hard, Jia Hongjian would have thought of sending charcoal to help?

"I'm sorry, sir, I really didn't mean that! Sir! I was wrong, please forgive me!" Matt Damon apologized in shock at the time!He didn't know why he was so skeptical at the time, anyway, it just jumped into his mind all of a sudden this year, he really didn't seriously doubt that Jia Hongjian was gay!
