I have a map editor

The spy movie series also has similar core values. It’s for my (Big Rice’s) benefit, so please die voluntarily. I won the final victory, so it’s only natural for me to enjoy the spoils piled on the corpses... Pompeo said it well: We lie, we cheat, we steal, and this is the glory of America.

There are many other similar problems, which I will not list here one by one.

There is a saying that goes, art comes from life. These are things that happen in reality, and the vast majority of creators are "average people". With a lot of reference from reality, they can indeed compose good works of art (although their values ​​are incorrect).

However, it is too difficult for them to create excellent works that are accepted by the public from a higher perspective, from the perspective of mankind's pursuit of a better culture and civilization.

……

Liu Yifei was a little surprised when she received the date invitation from her assistant.

Because they were not suitable, she signed a contract with "Crossover Entertainment". She did not bring any of her previous personal assistants with her, and she did not even have many gifts. After she had the intention to sign the contract, she came alone to the suburbs of the port city where the headquarters of "Crossover Entertainment" was located.

The assistants and agents around her now are all assigned by the new company. It has not been long since they have been employed and they have not been exposed to any business, but she feels that these people are quite professional.

"Emily? I know her.

, a very famous life up master on the video website, and she is a foreigner. She is also a contracted artist of the company. What does she want me to do, to socialize or to appear on her video? Want me to cooperate with her to do a show? "

"No," the assistant shook his head, "She is not a contracted artist of the company."

Liu Yifei showed a puzzled look: "Then she is...?"

"Well, she is the boss's wife..."

"Ah?" Liu Yifei was surprised. "Isn't our big boss's wife President Luo Ruier?"

"We don't know the details..." The assistant was a local girl with a strange look on her face. "It seems that the boss is a believer of some special faith in the United States. The law allows him to marry many wives, but this is against the laws of our country, so it is a forbidden topic..."

"XX religion?" Liu Yifei asked a question that might be blocked by asterisks.

"I don't know... Sister, you have been to the United States, so you should know better than me."

Liu Yifei's expression also became strange: "There are too many strange religions over there, and the government's review is also very casual... I don't even know if it needs to be reviewed, there are too many anyway."

"Then let's not talk about it. She asked you out for dinner anyway."

"Why did she invite me to dinner? I thought she was just an ordinary artist and wanted me to be on her show..."

"It seems to be related to your future work arrangements. I heard Sister Wang (the manager of the agency department) say that because of signing you, the big boss seems to be planning to launch some additional new projects specifically for you, so he wants to meet you, right?"

"Really?" Liu Yifei showed a surprised look.

"It should be, sister, you have a lot of face, but I asked my colleagues in the planning department, the company's original filming plan has not changed, it is still two TV series, the new project should be a sudden idea of ​​the big boss, and there is no news about the specific project."

"Oh--"

Hearing the assistant say this, Liu Yifei felt both nervous and expectant.

……

The meeting place was at an ordinary restaurant in the city, and the assistant drove with Liu Yifei to the appointment.

The car is an electric car produced by a sister company "Crossover Technology". After she became a contracted artist, the company equipped it according to her status. The top configuration costs more than 200 million yuan. In every aspect, it is no worse than luxury cars from famous manufacturers. But for some reason, the "technology company" does not seem to be keen on the sales of the car.

Apart from mentioning it briefly at product launches, the company never advertises for car manufacturers, even though sales of several of its models are very good.

Liu Yifei herself likes this kind of electric car very much. When she has nothing to do, she will drive to the seaside in the port city for a ride just for the unique driving experience of this car.

On the way, the assistant introduced the restaurant we were going to eat at. Although it looked like an ordinary restaurant, the owner of the restaurant was personally trained by the big boss a few years ago. Later, with the big boss's financial support, he started out on his own and opened this restaurant.

The craftsmanship is naturally impeccable, and as for the hardware facilities, it is said that there are few that can match it in the world. And those that can match it are all fellow apprentices with the same experience as the restaurant owner. They all learned from the big boss and then opened their own shops with his support.

The fees are not very affordable, but they usually receive clients from several "Time Travelers" companies, and they also often receive foreign guests and friends. They are very famous in the high-end catering industry.

The cuisine of this restaurant might be really good, but Liu Yifei didn't believe that its hardware conditions could be among the best in the world. However, before arriving at the restaurant, she experienced what the hardware environment was like.

My assistant was driving, so I asked her to download the hotel's APP on her mobile phone. While she was still on the road, she booked a parking space in the hotel's parking lot in advance.

Her mobile phone is naturally the "third-generation banana phone" released by "Traveler Technology" this year. It has a large screen, no buttons, and touch screen operation. However, the mobile network environment at that time was still 2G, so it was impossible to give a real-time picture. The operation interface was a simulated interface. The hotel's meal reservation information, private room usage status, and parking space information were clearly visible. Because it was charged, even the estimated departure time of private rooms and ordinary parking spaces could be seen.

You can also reserve a dedicated entrance, which is very convenient for well-known people like her to dine here.

Well, this kind of "hardware conditions" is indeed beyond the imagination of this era.

When they arrived at the hotel, the decoration was quite ordinary. In the private room, she and her assistant met the boss's wife Emily herself, and no one else.

The two sides exchanged greetings, sat down, and after some courtesy, ordered their meals using the IPAD-style handheld touch screen in the private room.

This was the first time Liu Yifei used this thing. With Emily's guidance, she quickly learned how to use it.

"Yifei, are you allergic to seafood? The shrimps here are good."

"No, Sister Amy, I can eat seafood."

"Then order three servings of shrimps first, and then three plates of blue crabs."

Shrimp is also called mantis shrimp, and Emily has become accustomed to the local name for it.

Thanks to girls' strange way of enhancing friendship, the two women, who had just met for the first time, quickly became close. Emily still looked like she was eighteen or nineteen years old, but she was actually over thirty years old, a few years older than Liu Yifei, and the two of them called each other sisters.

The three of them ordered their meals, but they had to wait for a while before the food was served, so they drank tea and chatted in the private room.

No business, just some makeup and skin care shopping

Material things.

Emily gave Liu Yifei a very strange feeling. It was also the first time she saw her in person. There were no filters, no magic makeup techniques, and no camera beauty technology in those days. Emily's beauty surprised her a lot, but her skin care and figure surprised her too much.

After seeing many foreigners, you will know that most of them have rough skin, large pores, and their figure is hard to describe. But Emily in front of me completely overturned this perception.

Moreover, the way he speaks does not sound like a foreigner at all, nor does he have the weird, affected accent of some foreigners. He speaks Mandarin with the same broadcasting tone, but his voice is more natural than her, a pure-blooded Chinese. He seems like a native of a mysterious country.

After chatting for a while, Liu Yifei finally couldn't hold back her strong curiosity and asked:

"Sister Amy, how do you maintain your skin? You have such good skin. I also take care of my skin, but my skin is so bad compared to yours."

Hearing this topic, the assistant girl who had been acting as a foil and background also pricked up her ears: I'm afraid that any woman, even a fairy sister, would not mind having her skin become more fair and delicate like Amy.

"It's just normal maintenance, but my old Yang has some special methods that can make the skin better. Speaking of which, I asked you to come here today for this reason. It's not that I want to make you more beautiful. Um... let me ask you first, what plans do you have for your future acting career, or what are your expectations?"

Although they didn't meet for long, through a simple conversation, Emily felt that this "Fairy Sister" in front of her was really naive. She didn't know if it was because she had been controlled too much by her biological mother and godfather before.

This can be seen from the fact that she went to "Traveler Entertainment" alone to sign the contract. Not to mention that she is a bit cunning, even if it is just common sense, she should bring a lawyer with her...

Liu Yifei didn't understand what Emily meant for a moment, and asked:

"What does Sister Amy mean?"

Emily thought about it and confirmed again that the girl in front of her lacked common sense and experience, so she just spoke frankly and didn't beat around the bush.

"What I mean is, do you want to make your life easier and just be a vase star in the future, or do you want to make a breakthrough in your career and become a real actor or even a performing artist?"

When talking about this topic, Liu Yifei became much more serious and restrained the smile on her face.

"I see, Sister Amy, that's what you're asking. I've actually discussed this with Sister Wang from the Artist Department before. I still hope to break my inherent perception and make further progress in my acting career. For this, I'm ready to endure hardships and even get hurt."

The assistant looked at her in surprise. It was the first time the girl heard this. It was as if some people could easily make money just by relying on their looks, but they chose to rely on their talents to compete with others in other conventional fields.

Emily looked at her carefully for a few times, and seeing that she was not talking nonsense but was serious, she nodded.

"You won't get hurt, and it won't be too tiring. In the early stages, you will just be trained in physical fitness and martial arts..."

Liu Yifei thought it was something else, and was a little amused when she heard this, and said:

"I have been working out and have a pretty good stamina. I also know some martial arts. I practiced them when I was filming a drama with Director Zhang a few years ago. These... don't seem to be able to improve my acting skills, right?"

Emily nodded, but didn't answer. Instead, she asked her a question: "I remember that you have worked with Gong Li before, and you are also a graduate of the Beijing Film Academy. Do you think your acting skills can reach Gong Li's level?"

Liu Yifei was very self-aware and shook her head, saying, "I want to, but it's probably difficult in this life. Teacher Gong is really amazing..."

"Where is the international chapter?" Emily asked again.

"It's difficult, right? I understand the principles, and I can endure the hardships, but I just can't perform like them..."

"So what do you think of Uncle Long's acting skills?" Emily asked.

"Uh...it should be good, right?" Liu Yifei became uncertain when talking about Cheng Long.

"What about deleting his fighting scenes and letting him perform a pure drama?"

"It should be pretty good, after all, I've been acting for decades..." Liu Yifei was a little dazed but not stupid. She reacted and said, "Are you planning to let me become an action star? Like Michelle Yeoh?"

Emily smiled and shook her head, saying:

“It’s half and half, but no one can become an action star in the future. I mean a pure action star…” She pointed to her head, “It also has to be combined with the plot. I used Uncle Long as an example just to explain to you that if you are strong in a certain professional field, it can cover up some of your own shortcomings. Then you can have room to experience the way of acting and hone your acting skills, instead of showing everything except your beauty… Don’t be angry, judging from your previous films, you have nothing but good looks, so you were scolded so badly by professional film critics, and the audience who are not attracted by your appearance also gave you bad reviews.”

Liu Yifei bit her lower lip and nodded. This was indeed the reality... She had also read some magazines and watched some online forums in private, and knew that her reputation was not good in some circles.

Now she understood Emily's plan, and after calming down and thinking about it, she realized that this was indeed a way out by putting herself in her shoes.

I just don't know if there is room for practical operation.

She was a little scared of the hard work that the action stars in Hong Kong movies did, and hard work didn't always bring rewards.

0066

After dinner, Liu Yifei did not delay and immediately agreed to the training plan planned for her by the boss's wife.

She currently had no filming assignments and no commercial activities, so she returned to the residence arranged for her by the company, packed several large bags, and drove to the training location with her assistant.

There was a lot of luggage and it couldn't fit on the electric bike, so half of it was placed in Emily's car.

To her great surprise, Emily's car was not a luxury car, but a minivan with a modified interior.

The car model is either a customized one or a very ordinary one, and it even looks a bit rustic. I don’t know about its other performance, but it can really hold a lot of things. After all, the same model in a parallel universe can hold more than a dozen people or five cows at a time.

She didn’t recognize the red logo with the word “Wuling” on it… She recognized many cars, but she didn’t know this kind of van, and judging from the logo, it was made in China.

She got into the passenger seat of the van out of curiosity, and fastened her seat belt at Emily's reminder.

Traffic regulations were not strictly enforced in the past few years, but Emily had already developed good driving habits and would always fasten her seat belt no matter how strict the regulations were.

Nowadays, there are fewer private cars. Hong Kong cities, which are considered first-tier cities abroad but only second-tier or even third-tier cities in China, do not have traffic jams. Leading the electric SUV driven by her assistant, Emily had a smooth and steady journey.

"How do you drive this car?"

After driving for a while, Liu Yifei asked with a smile on her face.

Emily also laughed, "It's our Lao Yang's hobby. Don't underestimate this car. It has a mid-mounted rear-wheel drive sports car chassis. If you really go on the road or off-road, there are really few cars that can outrun it."

Liu Yifei was a little surprised. Although she didn't understand the professional terms for the vehicle, it sounded quite impressive.

"Well, your husband has a very special hobby, spending money to modify this kind of car."

"No, it's just the original body and engine from the factory. Well, how should I put it? The design of this car is very good, and the performance has achieved a very good balance among light vehicles. To put it simply, it has a larger cargo capacity than other cars, consumes more fuel and is more expensive, it is durable and not afraid of scratches and collisions, it has a small body, is light and flexible, and can enter and exit many scenes that large vehicles cannot pass through. There's actually no point in saying so much, the one in my family just loves to drive this car."

"Oh," Liu Yifei nodded, not quite understanding, and said innocently, "I also like the feeling of being comfortable and casual."

Emily smiled but said nothing. Indeed, you can tell from the look of it. She wore jeans when dining with the wife of the boss of the company. Fortunately, you are the high-end version of the fairy sister, with a good figure and can be willful. The one in Space Zero also has this kind of comfortable and casual personality. As a result, because of the rebound of the dance and martial arts movements, the thick legs were exposed thoroughly by this comfortable and casual way of dressing. Some street photos that have not been carefully edited are really unbearable to watch...

"Where are we going now? We are already out of the city and on the highway."

"my home"

"???" Liu Yifei was surprised, "Didn't I say I was going for training? Why am I going to your house?"

"That's why you came to our house for training. Don't worry, my house is very big," Emily said casually.

"Uh... do fitness coaches and martial arts teachers also live in your house... huh? Ah... I see, I've seen your videos, you are a professional fitness coach."

"Well, so, it's more convenient for you to live in our house. You can get guidance nearby, so you don't have to run back and forth. The entertainment company is just getting started, and the supporting facilities and layout are not so comprehensive. It will take a while to find a good fitness coach. For the privacy of the company's artists, we have to hire male and female fitness coaches separately. At this stage, there is a lack of such people in the country. It is estimated that it is really difficult to find people, so I might as well do it myself first."

"Oh," Liu Yifei nodded, then asked carefully, "Will my presence disturb your private life?"

Emily smiled and said, "No, didn't I? Our house has a lot of space, and Lao Yang hasn't been home lately because he has something to do."

But in his heart he thought: "I'm not afraid of you joining our family's private life, it's just... it's not that my body can't handle it, but Lucas' taste seems to be getting more and more sophisticated now, and it seems that simple beauties can hardly arouse his interest..."

"What did Mr. Yang do?"

"There were some problems with the shipping channels in the United States, so he went over to deal with it."

Emily made up an excuse.

The port city is only 60 kilometers away from the second Xinjin County, and another 15 kilometers away from the Yujia Town production base. It only takes a few tens of minutes to drive there on the highway.

The two chatted on the way and unknowingly arrived at the second Xinjin County area.

"what?"

As soon as she entered the city and saw the street scenes on both sides of the road, Liu Yifei cried out in surprise.
