In order to change the novel, Liang Kun reasonably replaced the hero with a Chinese American. Liang Kun often chatted with Chinese American actors in the crew.
There is a dragon suit actor in the crew who is Chinese. He came to the United States with his parents when he was a child and is full of interest in domestic affairs. In the United States, many Asian Americans want to become stars, but their road in the entertainment industry is very difficult.
Liang Kun also talked with temporary assistant Kelly. On the whole, Asians are quite successful in the United States. According to statistics, the average income of Asians is relatively high, much higher than that of blacks. Of course, a large part of the reason for the high income of Asian Americans is that Asian Americans are relatively hard-working and their families pay more attention to education.
Hardworking people are respected, and Chinese Americans are occasionally discriminated against, but unlike blacks, it is mainly invisible discrimination in college admission and employment.
A Chinese woman who once married an American kept her husband''s surname after divorce, and then married a Chinese, but still did not change her original surname. When giving birth to a child, she deliberately took the name commonly used by Americans, plus her mother''s surname, which looked like a real American. The purpose of Chinese families is to ensure that their children will not be discriminated against in admission when they go to college in the future.
For the same famous university application, it is much harder to be admitted in the name of Chinese. This is the invisible discrimination in the United States.
It is also difficult to find a job in a Chinese name. Many foreign students hope to find a satisfactory job in the United States after graduation. Whether they stay in the United States or return home, such experience will add a lot of points to themselves.
Many parents also hope that their children can stay in the United States, become international elite talents and create a better future. However, the idea is very plump, but the reality is very skinny.
In the parallel world, a miss international student gave a speech at the University of Maryland, saying that she grew up in a city in China, "as long as you go out, you must wear a mask, otherwise I may get sick". "The first breath in America, I felt free.".
She licked the United States 360 degrees without dead ends. Finally, she couldn''t find a job and returned home.
It is quite rare for Chinese like Liang Kun to wander through Hollywood without even taking an English name. He didn''t think the air in the United States was sweet, but he felt that the food was not delicious enough and had to cook by himself.
The male protagonist of Liang Kun''s magic novels is a Chinese American whose career is not smooth and who is subject to invisible discrimination. He also wanted to be the kind of successful person expected by the female owner. He became more and more decadent after hitting a wall everywhere.
David Geffen said that the setting that the male owner is Chinese is acceptable. If Liang Kun wrote the story of two pure whites, Gefen would be surprised. Because of that setting, Liang Kun must lack a sense of substitution. How did he write it well?
The next day, Gefen introduced Liang Kun to the editor of a publishing house.
Liang Kun doesn''t need to use any brains. The publishing house won''t pit him because Gefen is the introducer.
Liang Kun''s royalties are not calculated according to the newcomers who write books in the United States, but the same as the original author Gillian Flynn, because he was already a well-known writer in China.
He wrote this book much earlier than the original. If it sells as well as the original, it will bring him more than $30 million.
In the parallel world, Flynn has become the world''s highest paid new writer because her lost lover published in 2012 continues to be on the global writer income list. Writing a book in the United States is very profitable if it sells well, especially if it can be adapted into a film.
Constantine helped Liang Kun read the contract and didn''t raise any objection.
When they returned to the hotel after signing the contract, Constantine still felt a little untrue. The contract is not bad, but much better than expected.
"That''s it? Your English novel has been decided to be published? It''s too easy," Constantine sighed.
This is an English novel. 99.9% of Chinese people can''t even write novels in their own language, let alone sell well. The senior editor of Liang Kun''s lost lover said he was optimistic about his sales after reading it.
Liang Kun shrugged his shoulders and said easily, "otherwise? It''s called ''it''s good to enjoy the cool under the big tree''. With the recommendation of the big guys in the entertainment circle, the efficiency of the publishing house is of course very high. If I take the manuscript to the publishing house myself, I don''t know how much tongue to waste."
"You wouldn''t want to write an English novel if it wasn''t recommended by the boss?" Constantine knew Liang Kun''s character very well. He wouldn''t be targeted.
If he had not known Gefen, Liang Kun would not have written English novels so early. He would have to wait until he became famous. Gefen can''t fool him in this regard, because big men don''t look at the little money for writing books. Even the world''s top writers can''t earn more money a year than Gefen.
After playing in New York for two days and visiting several famous scenic spots, Liang Kun and the three flew to Los Angeles.
Los Angeles is more suitable for life. In December, Los Angeles still has a pleasant climate, generally 9 ℃ - 19 ℃, and there is no need to consider heating in winter.
Liang Kun opened the door with his key. As soon as the three entered the room, they heard music.
Constantine frowned and asked, "is there anyone in the family? Isn''t it a thief?"
"No, I found a friend to help look at the house before I left." Liang Kun replied.
The music came from Liang Kun''s bedroom. Liang Kun walked over and knocked on the door. He didn''t directly push the door into the house.
Teresa Palmer heard a knock on the door and came out of the bedroom in a vibrant black tight sportswear.
Seeing Liang Kun, she said hello in surprise. "Liang, are you back?"
"How about playing the dance blanket?" Liang Kun was familiar with the music in the room and immediately guessed what she was doing.
Liang Kun liked to play with dance blankets when he was at home. Download the game on the computer with the CD, and then connect the computer host to play. It''s not boring to exercise with this. The disadvantage is that the computer monitor is a little small.
Moreover, he found that playing dance blanket would be judged as hip-hop dance by the system, which was assisted when playing, so his level of practice was very high.
"Yes, I can lose weight by the way. I have a good look at the house and cleaned it very clean." Talisa saw Constantine and Li Renjie in a daze behind Liang Kun, waved to them and smiled sweetly. "Hi."
"Hi," Constantine swallowed. Talisa is wearing tight sportswear, with a protruding front and a tilted back, and her figure is extremely hot.
He didn''t expect Liang Kun to find such a person to "look at the house". Is this the Chinese idiom "Golden House hides Jiao"?
He smiled and asked, "are you an actress in happy death? I''ve seen your stills on the Internet."
"Really? My name is Theresa Palmer, Australian." Theresa introduced herself.
"I''m Constantine Lambert, French," Constantine smiled.
"Your name sounds so great, it seems to have some mysterious power." Thai Lisa Tucao a sentence, to Liang Kun: "what is the music make complaints about? I''ll turn off the game first."
When she entered the house, Constantine whispered to Liang Kun, "you hid a blonde at home. Because she is Australian, you promised Tangtang not to find an American girlfriend?"
"She''s not my girlfriend. She''s just helping to see the house, or we''ll all go back to China. It''s a waste when the house is empty after paying the rent." Liang Kun explained.
"Really? Does she still live here next? Don''t say you haven''t thought about it at all, you''re a genius. What do you think, Renjie?"
Li Renjie didn''t say anything. I can''t hear, I can''t hear, your voice is too small
"Don''t discuss this topic, we are really just ordinary friends." Liang Kun thought for a while, and really couldn''t think of a reasonable reason to explain it.
When Teresa came to the villa, she had returned the broken apartment in the poor area. All her things were here. Liang Kun can''t come back to live. Just kick her out?
"I''m back. It''s inconvenient for us to live together, so you can go out and find a place to live." this kind of words can''t be said by a normal man unless the other party is extremely ugly.
The correct answer is: "anyway, there are four rooms here. You can continue to live. I will return to China in a while."
Although Liang Kun didn''t say so, they all thought so before leaving at the end of August. So Teresa is very happy. I believe Liang Kun will cover her in the future.
That night, Liang Kun cooked Chinese food at home.
Another problem appeared. Talisa, who was suspected of eating goods, had a chance to taste his craft. After eating what he cooked, no woman didn''t like him.
He can''t deliberately not cook and go out to buy something to eat in order not to eat with Teresa. As a result, it is conceivable that after tasting a few mouthfuls, Talisa''s eyes widened and directly stared into Amanda Seyfried. A little bigger is the "Gollum" in the Lord of the rings.
"How dare you cook and cook so delicious? I''ve eaten Chinese food before, which can''t be compared with what you cook." Talisa exclaimed.
"Just eat more if you like, and then you''ll have a good mouth." Constantine smiled. He winked at Liang Kun secretly, with a little envy in his expression.
After dinner, Teresa took the initiative to wash the dishes and rushed to work with her assistant. She looked like I was very virtuous.
Constantine and Liang Kun sat in the living room watching TV and whispered, "brother Kun, you''re so awesome. The longest way I''ve gone is your routine. Because your girlfriend is from different countries, you won''t fight when you meet separately."
"We are really just friends," Liang kunhan said.
"I know, when you and sun Xian were interviewed, they said they were just friends. When did you find a French girlfriend? Now there are representatives from Australia. I think European girls are also very good."
"..." Liang Kun knew that he couldn''t explain it clearly. It''s hard not to think about such a blonde living in Liang Kun''s house.
Who let Liang Kun have a criminal record? And Theresa was not at all formal with him. She knew him very well at first sight.
As Constantine thought, Teresa continued to live in the villa, the room she had chosen before.
On the 23rd, Spielberg''s Munich premiered in North America.
There was no Premiere of the film. On the 6th of this month, Spielberg accepted an interview and announced that it had been cancelled
