Chapter 792: The Clown's Advance
On the streets of New York, there is a very inconspicuous little shop. It is not a big place, with soft lights and gentle music. There is a bar-style table, less than 20 square meters, and a Michelin three-star Japanese chef.
There are only four people sitting in the six seats, Chen Hao, Chen Gang, Kang Yan and Qiu Yu, eating top-notch Japanese food. It is a rare leisure afternoon. They relax and taste a dish from time to time. They hold their mobile phones and send messages and chat, and they are separated from the hustle and bustle by the closed shop door.
After coming to the United States, Chen Hao did not put pressure on himself. The outside world thought that he was waiting for the release with the crew, but they did not know that he had stolen a few days of leisure in New York, looking for unique shops one after another, eating, drinking, reading, or listening to music. Without considering the price, he discovered a secret about enjoyment.
What you can get but others can't get is not necessarily enjoyment. What you want and can get is enjoyment.
He is not used to drinking red wine. He has drunk red wine that costs hundreds of thousands of dollars a bottle. For him, the alcohol feeling brought by Erguotou that costs only a dozen dollars is almost the same. That is not enjoyment. The cost of this Michelin restaurant is very high and most people cannot afford it, but in a beer house yesterday, the ordinary consumption made Chen Hao stay until the early morning. That is enjoyment.
Seeing the mountains, waters and scenery of the world is the wish that Chen Hao has always wanted to fulfill. Those unknown scenery are full of temptation to him.
Eating and listening are the same. If you haven't tried it, you don't know how many things you like. This time Chen Hao chose to come to the United States in advance to give himself a holiday in the name of work. Feeling the busyness of the first half of the year and enjoying the happiness of self-driving tours, he wants to continue his happiness, which includes the goal of ideal work and the enjoyment of life.
Enjoying at work is what Xu Jinglei taught him, but Comrade Xu is lazy and puts the enjoyment of life above the goal of work. Later, he became more and more deeply involved, resulting in an imbalance between the two sides.
These days, Chen Hao is very comfortable. He has no work to deal with, and he doesn't need to deal with things. He just enjoys life every day and satisfies his desire for food. Of course, this kind of small shop that doesn't receive many customers is often his first choice. Haozi's fame is just as useful here, especially in the current environment where the whole world is occupied by Chinese students. If you don't have foreign fans, there will be fans of foreign students who will surround you.
A meal, eaten for an afternoon, when the sun sets, driving a car, feeling the congestion of the metropolis and the beauty of nightfall on the bustling streets of New York, it must be difficult for others to understand, you are crazy, driving on the streets of New York during the evening rush hour and specifically going to the most prosperous section.
When time is no longer an obstacle to your enjoyment of life, you will find that traffic jams on the road are not endless troubles. Change your emotional thinking and you will see a completely different scenery.
What does this building look like, what are the conditions of those blocks, what are the cars stuck on the road like, and what are the differences in the scenery passing by?
For Chen Hao, from the rich area to the poor area, from five o'clock to ten o'clock, it was just a stroll in the car. When you become dependent on the sound of music, you will find that even in such a claustrophobic space in the car, it is still a very enjoyable thing. When you arrive at the hotel, you still feel reluctant to leave.
Swimming in the hotel swimming pool for an hour, not only Chen Hao, but also Chen Gang and Kang Yan have been approached. By the swimming pool, the rate of being approached by a good figure is higher than that of appearance. Kang Yan has lean muscle lines, Chen Gang has explosive muscle lines, and his pectoralis major and bat back are enough to make many girls who hope to be bombarded by the storm come over actively.
As for Chen Hao, in a high-end five-star hotel, even if you meet fans, they will come over to chat very implicitly. After you chat for a few sentences, you will find that some of them are celebrities themselves, some are also celebrities to some extent, or her father is a well-known figure, or you are familiar with the brand run by her family...
…………………………
In the morning, Chen Hao will start live broadcasting from time to time, chat with everyone, and share some interesting things he encountered with everyone. Gradually, in the five five live broadcast rooms, everyone’s curiosity about some gossip news from the outside world is not so strong. They feel that chatting with Haozi, we are a family. If you have to ask some things that gossip media will ask during his live broadcast, you will distance yourself.
After the morning live broadcast, as usual, Chen Hao will find a "good place" according to Qiu Yu and others. Choosing a place to spend the afternoon leisure time, today, a high-end coffee shop became the destination of the four people. Here, you don’t feel strange to see a certain character who often appears on TV, big stars, politicians, hosts, business elites... The appearance of Chen Hao only earned a few smiles who nodded and greeted him, but it did not make people flock to him. He could sit safely in front of the glass window and enjoy the top-priced and top-tasting coffee. This, at least better than red wine, has a really different taste. Including the snack cakes that go with coffee, that kind of exquisite feeling, if it can be mass-produced, it will definitely squeeze most cake shops out of business.
Chen Gang, who doesn't eat chocolate on weekdays, also ate several pieces of chocolate today. For him and Kang Yan, enjoying delicious food is to increase the amount of morning and evening training. Whenever delicious food is imported, they will be particularly envious of Chen Hao. He doesn't need to avoid eating. This is enough to make all the people in the world who want to keep in shape envious.
"A piece of chocolate costs thirty dollars. This world is really a world of rich people."
The taste of chocolate that can make Chen Gang eat several pieces in a row can be imagined. The taste enjoyment brought by the price is definitely the best.
Qiu Yu also nodded secretly on the side. He was very glad that he followed a good boss. How much money he made was one aspect. He followed him around the world. No matter where he went, he could enjoy what he could enjoy as an assistant. There are not many artists in the world who can buy first-class tickets for their assistants when traveling.
In the past few days, Qiu Yu roughly estimated that just on food, several people spent more than 100,000 US dollars. From the shock of eating to now being numb to eating. This numbness is not only the numbness of spending too much, but also the numbness of making money easily.
Looking at the two people coming over, Qiu Yu signaled the waiter to come over and clean up, and let the other party sit down opposite Chen Hao.
"We sincerely invite Mr. MOUSE to participate in this year's Victoria's Secret show. Regarding the quotation, we have no problem. We hope to bring one or two new singers to sing on the spot, which is contrary to your idea, but we have proposed a plan, and hope Mr. MOUSE will consider it. You can invite a Chinese singer, and we will only invite one singer here."
Qiu Yu has been following Chen Hao for a long time, and he has seen everything he should have seen, but Chen Hao refused Victoria's Secret's invitation without hesitation, which still surprised him. At this moment, Victoria's Secret, such a world-class stage show, actually agreed to some "unreasonable requests" of his boss, which surprised Qiu Yu even more. The boss is famous and popular, and as a world-class singer, it seems that his performance this year is a bit worse. It is reasonable to invite him, but to make some compromises for him, Qiu Yu, who is the closest person to him as an assistant, feels a little surprised, and others will not understand it even more.
"Okay, no problem."
The negotiation was over in less than ten minutes, and the remaining contracts would have a formal process. After they left, Chen Hao smiled and explained to Qiu Yu: "I got the news that there were several internal previews of "Batman: The Dark Knight". Several big bosses who were linked to them went to watch it. Do you know what I need to pay? In the first chapter, I have to recreate the Joker's look and sing on stage."
"Ah!" Qiu Yu opened his mouth wide. He was an assistant. How could he not know these things?
Chen Hao also knew what he was thinking, and explained: "I have recently pushed a lot of endorsements. It's not that I don't accept them. There is money to be made and my reputation can be improved. My brain is not broken. Xiao Qiu, you don't have enough confidence in me."
Qiu Yu blushed. He followed his boss to shoot the Dark Knight, and he also felt that the role played by his boss was very evil and demonic, but he didn't have a real value measurement standard. A supporting role, even if it succeeds, how much influence can it have?
His thinking mode is still stuck in the inherent thinking mode, and to be honest, his vision is not enough. Being an assistant is just right. If he is sent out to be a manager, he is definitely not suitable for leading first-line artists. The ceiling of his ability is there. It is just right here with Chen Hao, and he is used to it. Xiao Qiu's loyalty and serious, down-to-earth and careful work spirit, he doesn't think he can find another assistant so suitable.
So he didn't hide many things. Qiu Yu didn't know just because he hadn't had time to say it. From the contact to the direct finalization today, it was just two phone calls and more than a day.
This incident caused a certain amount of pressure on Qiu Yu, and he felt a little sense of crisis in his heart. He secretly decided to take out all his spare time to learn more. I have enough vision to follow the boss, and the stage I can touch is also big enough. If it's still not good, it's my own problem. Outsiders have given so much affirmation to the role of the boss, why didn't I see it? This back and forth, if I was responsible for the negotiation, how much money would I lose to Brother Hao.
Qiu Yu booked 10 movie tickets online at different times for the movie theater near his hotel at night. Apart from the fact that he had to follow Brother Hao during this period, he felt that he had to watch at least three to five shows of "Batman: The Dark Knight".
He started buying tickets out of responsibility. After watching the movie after it was released, there were only four words to describe it - it was unsatisfying.
