Flipping open his laptop, Chen Guang continued, "I'm almost done with the first half of the World School of Performing Arts. I originally intended to finish the entire book by today, but it looks like I'm a little late. But it doesn't matter. I'll split it into two volumes. Wait for another half an hour and I'll give you the electronic version of the first volume. Contact Fang Tianyu and try to get a hardcover copy of the first volume before the premiere tonight. When the time comes, anyone who's willing to attend our premiere, whether they're people from the media or people in the entertainment industry, even if they're able-bodied men who just happened to pass by, we'll give them a copy. "
"But we don't have a serial number for our printed publications! It's illegal, isn't it? "
Lu Xiaoliang's eyes lit up. He thought Chen Guang's idea was great, but it was a bit inappropriate.
Chen Guang said indifferently, "It doesn't matter. We're giving it away for free. We won't make any profit at all. It's just like how people give away collections of theses when they attend academic conferences. It's just a printed product at our own expense. It doesn't violate any laws in the USA. Remember, Buttface, tonight, when the most embarrassing premiere in history begins, it will be the time for us to blow the horn of our counterattack! To maximize the influence of the premiere, we have to do whatever it takes! "
"Yes, boss!"
Lu Xiaoliang stood up and walked out quickly.
Just a moment ago, he was still feeling dejected, but Chen Guang's words had ignited his fighting spirit.
With a smile, Chen Guang lowered his head to write the last paragraph of the first volume.
A few minutes later, when he had just pressed the send button, a blonde waitress came with a cup of coffee. "Sir, your coffee is here. Please enjoy."
Chen Guang looked up and smiled. "Freundlinger!"
That was the German pronunciation of "thank you".
The waitress was surprised. "Sir, how do you know I'm German?"
Chen Guang blinked. "Your English has a little northern Bavarian accent. If I'm not wrong, you grew up in Nuremberg."
The waitress was shocked. "Sir, you … you're amazing!"
Chen Guang waved his hand calmly. "It's nothing. If you knew my name, you wouldn't be surprised at all."
The waitress thought about it for a long time. Although she worked in the heart of the entertainment industry, she was so busy every day that her feet did not touch the ground. As a German, she was not interested in the gossip in the entertainment industry. She did not know Chen Guang's name.
But now, Chen Guang's words had piqued her endless curiosity. "Sir, although I really don't know you, may I have your number? I admire your erudition. "
Chen Guang looked up at her. "It may not be a good thing for you to exchange contact information with me. If you really want to be my friend, you can take your friend to the Hollywood Huaxia Theater across the square to watch the premiere of a movie from China, 'Women'. It's free."
The waitress was stunned. She finally matched Chen Guang's image in her mind with the news that she had seen while chatting with her colleagues last night. Her jaw dropped. "Oh my god, you are …"
Chen Guang shushed her. "Don't call my name out loud, or your boss will kick me out. I don't want to carry my laptop around everywhere."
"Okay, sir."
The waitress took a while to calm down. "I'll get back to work then?"
"Well, okay. Thank you. Your coffee is great. "
Chen Guang took out a 50-dollar tip from his pocket and put it in the waitress's hand. "Thank you for your service."
The waitress blushed slightly, but after a short hesitation, she still took it. She turned around and took two steps, then stopped and turned back. "Mr. Chen, my friend is the head of the community service organization here. I will ask her to bring her friends to watch a movie tonight. You are completely different from the rumors. You are knowledgeable, humble, and polite. "
Chen Guang nodded slightly. "You flatter me."
The waitress suddenly blushed under his gaze. "I know you will be very busy during this period, but if it's possible, I really want to leave your contact information. I also know that you seem to have a girlfriend in China, but I don't care about that. "
Hearing this, Chen Guang's heart trembled. This was practically asking him out in the open!
"Thank you for your kindness, but we Chinese are very particular about fate. Fate means that there are seven billion people in this world, and every time they meet and have a conversation, it's actually made up of countless miraculous coincidences. However, to truly turn this coincidental fate into an inevitable friendship, it might take a little more time to settle, and a second fate. "
Not only was the waitress not annoyed by his rejection, but the light in her eyes became brighter. "I understand, Mr. Chen."
She did not have any unhappiness when she failed to ask him out. Instead, she left with a heart full of joy.
Chen Guang shook his head slightly. No way. Handsome people are just that confident.
After sending the email, he stretched his back. He was not physically tired, but he wanted to rest.
There were still two days before the next volume, and he just needed to get it out in time the day after tomorrow.
He wrote the first volume more slowly. On the one hand, the content of the first volume was similar to the general outline, and there were some more general conceptual things in it. On the other hand, this was the first time he had written such a high-intensity book continuously, and the difficulty was greater than when he taught people how to fly a plane or write language textbooks.
Now that he had a little bit of knowledge, he was more familiar with the second volume, and the things he wrote were not so superficial, but more detailed and practical skills, so he wrote faster.
He opened the document again and roughly counted the number of words. It was incredible that he had written a full 200,000 words in less than three days.
If it were not for the Old Man's profound skills and invincible body, he would not have been able to hold on.
Sitting here alone was also boring, so he opened Weibo and the news media website to browse casually.
Thanks to the human nature of the big data system in the information age, he had been looking for news related to himself recently, and almost all the news that was pushed to him were related to him.
Forget it, there was no need to repeat those shocking headlines. Saying too much would make him cry.
Regardless of whether it was Chinese, English, German, or French, as far as the eye could see, most of them were scolding him.
Chen Guang searched for a long time, and finally found an article on the domestic news media website that spoke up for him. A young man who knew what was good for him had organized the special topics created by technology giants such as Youtube into a report, which could be considered as speaking up for him.
However, the comment section below was still tragic, and his own fans and haters who did not like him were in a heated argument.
Chen Guang roughly scanned through and estimated the ratio of the two sides in his heart. He was quite impressed with himself.
In China, these two types of people actually accounted for half of the country!
This ratio was very accurate, and the margin of error was less than 1%!
This meant that about half of the people in the country who knew him supported him, and the other half opposed him.
It was as if he was in the world of the Internet, at the junction of ice and fire, representing the two levels of the world.
If one could be like this, even if he was not a hero, he would be an ambitious person. Thinking about it, he was quite proud.
The situation overseas was worse. There was no way to see it. There was really no way to see it.
The language of the international friends was quite vicious. If it was someone who did not understand foreign slang, he would not be so angry, but he understood it all.
"Chen Guang?"
He was looking through the news when he suddenly heard a foreigner's very non-standard Chinese pronunciation, and he recognized it.
Chen Guang turned his head to look to his side. The person who was talking to him was a blonde handsome guy. He did not look old, but according to Chen Guang's understanding, he should be around 30 years old.
He did not know where this man came from, but he should be very famous. After all, many people in the cafe had their eyes on him, and at the same time, they were whispering endlessly.
His eyes were very sharp, like an eagle's, and he was also quite tall, about 1.88 meters.
At this moment, he was standing beside him and looking down, giving off a feeling of superiority.
This guy seemed to be a big shot after being scolded so many times on the Internet. Chen Guang did not need to guess to know why he was here. "It's me, and then? What can I do for you? "
The blonde man's lips curled up slightly, and there was an extremely disdainful smile on his face. "My name is Bent Afflet. It seems like you don't know me?"
Chen Guang turned his face back to the computer, not even looking at him. "I don't know many foreigners, of course not including you. If there's nothing else, you can leave now. I don't like to be disturbed."
Bent's expression changed slightly. He did not expect this guy to really not recognize him. He was about to say something.
But Chen Guang spoke again. "Oh, I remember. I just saw your information not long ago. You're the male lead of Lengcui's August, right?"
Bent Afflet's breathing became slightly heavier. "It's July in Florence. Friend, your pronunciation is too bad. By the way, your movie doesn't have an English dub, right? Is it a subtitled version? "
Bent was right. Originally, "Women" would have a dub, but before Big Beard Deng could record it, Chen Guang had already screened it in the United States.
A Chinese movie without an English dub and still trying to get an Oscar, Chen Guang was indeed unprecedented.
"What does this have to do with you? Don't you understand what I'm saying? "
Chen Guang tilted his head slightly and looked at him coldly.
He did not care how famous this guy was. Anyway, he had already offended all the filmmakers. It was no big deal to catch one and make it worse.
Moreover, this guy was like William Jones the other day, a direct competitor of his. Chen Guang pretended to be confused, but his mind was as clear as snow.
"Of course it has something to do with me! Are you here to be a clown? The thought of someone like you trying to get an Oscar makes me feel sick and nauseous! You've made Los Angeles a mess! Why don't you be smart and leave here early, take you and your RMB and get lost! That way, you can at least look like a decent person! Otherwise … "
Chen Guang took a deep breath and narrowed his eyes. His expression changed.
I'm sorry, I don't care what you scold me, but I can't stand being threatened.
