After class, Ye Jin drove directly to Beverly Hills.

Tonight, Universal Pictures held a cocktail party for the "Jaws" hot sale at WM Hotel, with well-known directors and artists participating.

Caa specially helped Ye Jin get an invitation card so that he could go in and see the world and expand his connections.

Although Hollywood does not talk about human relationships, it talks about connections, in other words, it is an exchange of interests.

As soon as Emma Roberts debuted, she could play Johnny Depp's daughter in the biopic "American Drug Lords", which is her aunt Julia Roberts' connections;

Jaden Smith was able to collaborate with Shuang Will Smith in "When Happiness Comes Knocking" because it is truly Will Smith's son.

Toby Maguire's starring in "The Great Gatsby", which is also a major recommendation from his old friend Leonardo.

So, it is beneficial to make more friends in Hollywood.

However, Ye Jin also knows that the prerequisite for communication is that they have what they need so that they can sit in the same circle and chat.

There will be no small employees in the circle where top tycoons interact, and there will be no tycoons in the circle where small employees interact. Birds of a feather flock together, and people are divided into groups, which has been the case since ancient times.

This is also the reason why Ye Jin did not go to the dance hall with John Travolta. He had no need for those people, and after he went there, he wasted his energy.

And this cocktail party is different.

If you go to the most, you are the top Hollywood figures. Making friends with these people will only help his career.

...

He arrived at WM Hotel on time. Ye Jin and Caa General Manager Michael Ovez entered the cocktail party with an invitation card.

The invitation card states that each guest can bring a partner. Most of them bring their own wives and girlfriends, but Ye Jin takes Michael Ovez with them, which makes the security guards look at them with a complicated look.

"Michael, can't you ask for an extra invitation card?" Ye Jin was uncomfortable all over by this look and couldn't help complaining to Michael.

"Ye, this invitation card is worth 500 US dollars. Where do we have that much money now?" Michael Ovez said distressedly.

Caa's startup funds were all bank loans. Although Ye Jin's capital injection later made their funds a little more abundant, they were still not enough to spend.

The reason is that in order to expand, caa is now constantly acquiring peers, signing writers to help them represent novels... In this way, not to mention $150,000, even $1.5 million is not enough to spend.

"Is this invitation card still cost money?" Ye Jin said in surprise.

"Of course, this is also a business." Michael Ovez nodded and explained in detail to Ye Jin.

After listening to it, Ye Jin suddenly realized.

It turns out that Hollywood has many film manufacturers, investors, directors, artists, etc. that are looking for opportunities everywhere.

At dance parties, cocktail parties, parties, any event attended by big-name stars, big-name directors, and top film merchants, someone wants to go in and do something.

There is a market when there is demand. So, when big-name stars, big-name directors, top film vendors and others hold events, they sell invitation cards.

One invitation card can cost thousands of dollars, and it is easy to earn hundreds of thousands of dollars in an event. Not to mention anything else, at least you can earn back your money from alcohol.

After hearing this, Ye Jin felt his eyes wide open. He didn't expect that Hollywood people were so smart. He held parties and invited guests by himself. Not only did he not spend a penny, but he could also make money. It was really a terrible person.

...

After entering the cocktail party, Michael Ovez did not take Ye Jin to visit the top figures, such as the popular director Stephen Spielberg, the vice president of Universal Pictures, Robert Walden, popular stars Al Pacino, Robert De Niro, etc.

"Those big guys are too tall, and we can't even reach them on tiptoe now. Even if we can come to someone, it won't be noticed." Michael explained to Ye Jin, "So, our purpose is those little stars, directors, and wealthy people who want to invest."

Ye Jin nodded with a smile.

That's what he meant.

Since ancient times, dragons have not lived with snakes. People like Spielberg, Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, etc. are all popular filmmakers, located at the top of the pyramid in Hollywood.

It is no exaggeration to say that he and Michael are still at the bottom of the pyramid. There are still 108,000 miles away from the top. Most filmmakers will never go through this path in their lifetime.

If the class difference is too big, it is not qualified to talk. Just like a poor boy wants to marry a rich girl, he can't even get into the door of others.

Michael then took Ye Jin around and met those unfamous little stars, directors, etc.

The characteristics of these people are very obvious. As long as you see who is standing alone and no one is around you, you will be designated as a little star, and the little director will undoubtedly be.

...

"Miss Meryl, although we are just established, we are all experienced agents. My companions and I are both WMA-born, so you can't be wrong with signing us." Michael Ovez talked endlessly to a lady named Meryl Streep.

"Sorry, I think I have to think about it." Meryl waved her hand.

She has never heard of the name caa, so why would she be willing to join it?

"We have a good script now, and I think you're a good fit for the heroine." Michael Ovez said with a smile. "This is investor Ye, who will invest $1.2 million in the movie."

"Really?!" Meryl looked at Ye Jin's overly young face, questioning her face.

"It's definitely true. If you don't believe it, you can come and read the script." Michael smiled, "This is my business card, you can call me at any time."

"Okay." Meryl took the business card in skepticism.

...

"Michael, how could my "Ghost Street" be suitable for her? You are too messy." After saying goodbye to Meryl, Ye Jin said speechlessly.

The heroine Nancy in the script is a high school student, who looks like she is sixteen or seventeen years old. To be honest, Michelle Pfeiffer is very suitable to play it. Meryl is already in her twenties and is obviously over-age.

"Let her sign the contract first." Michael said indifferently. No one can lie as an agent.

Seeing that he was so dark-hearted, Ye Jin couldn't help but curl his lips.

At this moment, a man in a waiter costume came forward, "Sir, you just wanted to invest in a movie. I have a good script here, guaranteeing that you can make money."

"Go, go!" Michael waved his hand disgustedly.

Every screenwriter in Hollywood will say that his scripts will make money, but no one can really make money. There are as many as 65,000 scripts registered in Hollywood a year. Among them, less than 5% of them can make movies. Those who can make money are even more selected.

So if someone swears that his script can make money, just kill him away.

Ye Jin stopped him as soon as he saw his face.

Because he recognized that this man with a tall figure and stiff expression was Stallone, a famous Hollywood action star.
