Of course, Mike Wallace was not as decrepit as the show's crew had imagined at that time, but today's Seattleites once again saw the familiar figure of the old man jogging along the north bank of the canal almost every day.

In fact, the reason why Liu Qingshan is so popular in Seattle is closely related to that program, which allowed people to see more of his abilities besides being an artist.

Therefore, regarding his specific identity, for many Seattleites or old Americans, his existence itself is a very magical thing, and there is a lot of indescribable magic in the traditional impression of artists.

You must know that most people here believe in Christianity and the Roman Catholic Church, and they are deeply ingrained in the idea of ​​a God who rewards good and punishes evil according to justice. This kind of God is somewhat similar to what we Chinese people call "God."

Therefore, their admiration for certain gods and strange phenomena is far more pious than our Chinese people imagine. The various miraculous things about Liu Qingshan are more or less mysterious.

Therefore, the saying that he has some kind of power given by God in his body is far more common than in China. Otherwise, how could a half-grown boy with yellow skin and dark eyes be widely respected in this land.

Regardless of his miraculous medical skills, the ghostly figure speed that he has repeatedly displayed publicly, and the fact that he killed the mad cow known as the strongest fighter in modern times with one punch, it seems that he has a good background.

Combining these aspects, it is currently receiving serious attention, including the AIG research project that was specifically targeted as soon as he appeared.

Otherwise, with his small achievements in the entertainment industry, how could he be noticed by the old beauty who owns the world's largest entertainment center, Hollywood.

Therefore, the meaning of his existence is very diverse, but no matter how many music, film and television resources he has, he can only be noticed by people in the industry, not such a broad civilian base.

Not long after, as Liu Qingshan's brand new black RV stopped, Gruner became visibly excited.

"The audience present today is very lucky, because many well-known Hollywood directors and actors came to congratulate us. Next, we invite Leonardo DiCaprio!"

Gurenna deliberately chanted the name in a drag voice, but it excited the crowd of onlookers at the scene. The atmosphere immediately became chaotic, and there were even more screams and screams.

More people were surprised, with disbelief written all over their faces, and they looked at each other in silent surprise.

If the appearance of this person could make people unable to realize it for a while, Gruner's shout at the next moment completely broke the moment of sluggishness: "Next, our famous Mr. and Mrs. Smith, please announce Mr. Ladd Pitt, Miss Angelina Jolie!”

"boom!"

The atmosphere at the scene seemed to really explode at this moment, but it was by no means that the person who appeared before was not as famous as the two people now, but that people were completely awake from this moment on.

There was no red carpet in front of the guests, and the three people appeared in no red carpet attire. Instead, they were dressed casually, even with satchels on their shoulders.

Along the way, they did not wave to the crowds on both sides as usual, but walked quickly towards Liu Qingshan, laughing and joking.

"Tobias Oliver..."

"Matt Damon..."

"Keanu Reeves..."

"Johnny Depp..."

There were not many people coming, but every one of them was a superstar, but their expressions looked a little embarrassed, maybe because they didn't know that there would be a roll-call session by the live host.

The last person to step down was Tim Burton, director of "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" but best known for his work on "Batman" and "Edward Scissorhands."

In fact, Jin Xishan didn't know that UEN TV station had such a hand, because only Liu Qingshan knew about the call she received from Pete.

So she quickly walked up to explain one by one. Fortunately, Seattle's Deputy Mayor Thompson gave the answer: "We also don't know that Miss Jin knows about your arrival, but UEN TV has a dedicated department stationed at the airport, so for everyone The arrival was anticipated in advance!”

Among the visitors, Johnny Depp was the funniest: "Let me just say, Mr. Liu wouldn't let us make such a big embarrassment, otherwise he would at least tell us to dress up a little more seriously! You see, I still recite I'm carrying a travel bag. If I had known this would happen, I would never let people know that I can't afford an assistant!"

Everyone laughed, and the previous embarrassment disappeared.

They may not complain in their hearts, but European and American artists have enough experience in dealing with emergencies. You must know that the paparazzi here are no worse than the world-famous British paparazzi.

Moreover, they have long been accustomed to the bottomless interview style of Western media. They are also used to this kind of surprise breaking news reports, and they will not really fall out on the spot.

But Liu Qingshan was different. These people were all here for him, and they were considered guests after all. His guests were being treated differently. Others could tolerate this kind of anger, but he would not hide his anger.

Fortunately, UEN TV station was mentally prepared. As soon as he looked at him with stern eyes, a group of TV station bosses hurriedly stepped forward to diffuse the atmosphere.

Their president Pi Lun even tried to imitate Hua Guo's fist-holding ceremony and explained: "Mr. Liu, we are actually making a joke with several distinguished guests, and we have called their brokerage company in advance to inquire. Some of the scenes will appear in tomorrow night's variety show, and everyone will get a certain amount of remuneration!"

Fang Da, another director of the variety show department, also said: "Mr. Liu, this type of surprise interview is very common in our country, but it has been hidden from you and Miss Jin. I am the main person responsible, and I am here to formally report to you Apologize!"

Compared to President Pi Lun, Liu Qingshan is more familiar with this person, and they have even had in-depth exchanges with each other, making them very talkable.

Now that he saw that the guests were all astonished, it would be too unkind for him to insist on asking for an explanation.

However, he still patted his chest and made a gesture of rejoicing: "So that's the case. It's my fault for not having a more in-depth understanding of your variety show style in advance! Just now I was worried that the guests would have a bad image because of me. Since the brokerage company has recognized the loss, I can only do as the Romans do!"

There were two people inside that he had never interacted with before, and that was Johnny Depp and director Tim Burton.

Therefore, he showed extra enthusiasm for these two people. Of course, he had also met Angelina Jolie for the first time. However, because of his relationship with Pitt, he was also the recommender for the two roles, so he considered it to be one of his own. No special treatment.

Tim Burton smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "I have long wanted to come to Mr. Liu to ask for a script, but unfortunately I was too busy at that time and couldn't get away from staying in New Zealand!"

"Mr. Burton, you're welcome. You are a world-famous director. I don't dare to let you come to your door. If anything happens, just call me and I will go find you!"

When meeting people for the first time, no matter whether they are famous or not, he always gives the impression of being humble and polite.

Tim Burton is obviously very satisfied with his attitude towards him: "I'm not kidding, Ethan Coen and Tobias can take the initiative to find you, and that James Cameron, too. Compared to these people, my qualifications are nothing, so why can’t I take the initiative to find you?”

Well, as soon as Liu Qingshan saw that this person was still a serious master, he quickly changed the subject, otherwise he would have been wasted at the entrance of the theater if he had named the other people one by one.

"Let's go in and sit down and talk. It's not ridiculous to be crowded here all the time!"

Among the people who came, he actually respected Tobias Oliver the most, so when he walked in, he subconsciously approached him.

Oliver took the opportunity to say: "Most of the filming for "No Country for Old Men" is almost done. When I finish shooting this film by the end of the year, you will have to find me a film similar to "The Irishman". Those three guys have occupied all the roles in advance. I was teased a lot by them because of this!"

Compared with the four legendary Hollywood veterans Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, Joe Pesci, and Harvey Keitel, this person is still a junior, but he is nearly 60 years old this year. Regardless of fame or There is still a certain gap between the latter and these four works.

However, what Liu Qingshan values ​​​​is his excellent connections in Hollywood. For example, the original protagonists in the movie "No Country for Old Men" were almost all brought in by him alone, rather than those who should be surrounded by friends and winners. Director Ethan Coen.

Most of Ethan Coen's directed works were actually completed by two people, the other being his brother Joel Coen.

The two brothers are famous film directors, screenwriters, and producers in Laos and the United States. Because the screenwriters, producers, and directors of their works are all completed by the two of them, they are called the "Coen Brothers."

But because the script was provided by Liu Qingshan, the two brothers had some conflicts in the specific directing concepts. The brothers had differences in some specific plot settings, so in order not to make the brother feel more secretly angry, they decided to The matter of forming the crew was temporarily handed over to him.

Tobias Oliver did not appear in the original version. The reason why he was brought in was initially because someone came to the door.

But then this person showed his ability to build bridges when encountering water and pave the way over mountains, so Liu Qingshan began to take this person seriously.

Because the focus of his future career is in Hollywood, having this person's help will undoubtedly provide a lot of help for his future film projects.

"This is not a problem, but the premise is the classic presentation of "No Country for Old Men". When I wrote this script, I was rushing to win the Academy Award!"

"Haha, it's not your script, and I can't encourage those old guys, especially Anton Chigurh's role as a cold-blooded killer, but many people have taken a fancy to it, and I didn't even steal Javier Bardem. Of course, it was also because he was younger! And the old police chief was also snatched away by Tommy Lee Jones. This person is not easy to recruit. If he is willing to join, he has not taken a fancy to the script. quality!"
