Chapter 15 Surprise brought by Li Te
Lite picked up the coffee and took a sip, but from the corner of his eyes he was secretly looking at Kate's silhouette.
The light shone on her face, like a relief of marble, soft and quiet.
But who would have thought that, with a delicate appearance as a Barbie doll, most of the characters that will be deeply rooted in the screen in the future will be action images. From the hearts of hundreds of millions of male fans in "Pearl Harbor", they "who most wanted to take home to see their parents' girlfriend" and turned into a "sexiest vampire in history" in "Legend of the Night". Even if they played a "bad woman" with a femtocratic heart in "Comprehensive Memories", the audience could not hate her because of the golden-segmented curve wrapped in a black tights. Every time they turned around and looked back, they would make people feel distracted and admired.
Even the Hollywood movie critics have to admit that no matter whether you recognize her acting skills or not, you cannot ignore her beauty.
What is even more commendable is that this goddess who is inverted on the screen is one of the few self-disciplined people in the chaotic entertainment industry. She is isolated from scandals, obsessed with two relationships, and does not pursue a bright future, but is willing to be a qualified wife and competent mother.
Kate suddenly turned his head, and in a trance, Li Te only felt that the countless images in his mind finally overlap with the person in front of him, and then became more and more vivid.
Kate finally discovered Lit's secret peek.
"What are you looking at?"
Li Te hugged his eyes awkwardly, shrugged and said, "Nothing."
"Really?" Kate's face clearly had a look of disbelief.
Li Te didn't want to continue the topic, "Okay, the work matters have been discussed. Can I ask you a private question now?"
Kate seemed to have guessed what Lite wanted to ask, and sat upright and said, "You can ask, but I don't promise to answer."
"How is it between you and Mike-Sing now?"
“This is also the job of an agent?”
"No, it's just my personal curiosity."
Kate turned his head and glanced at Lite meaningfully.
"So I can refuse to answer?"
"certainly!"
Li Te shrugged, but his expression could not hide his loss.
A smile flew across Kate's lips, and she didn't even notice that she was actually lying to Li Te, and she didn't mind answering this question.
"Okay, I had a fight with him after you left, but he took the initiative to apologize to me later. Now we have made up again."
"That's bad!" Li Te said subconsciously.
Kate looked at him with an incredible expression, "What did you say?"
"Sorry, I mean it's good... it's really good." Li Te's tone became hesitant when he spoke, and his heart had become a mess.
"It seems you really can't act?" Kate sighed softly, and his expression looked at Lite with a bit of complex emotions.
Lite shook his head with a wry smile, "This is the second time I have heard such an evaluation."
These words aroused Kate's curiosity.
"Who was the first time?"
Li Te's eyes showed a look of recollection, but his thoughts had returned to the United States on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean.
"A boring old man." He said at last.

At the dining table, Michael Orwitz gently shook the goblet in his hand, with a little fun, looking at Litt, who was feasting on the food on the plate opposite him.
"It seems that over the past month, you have lived a more exciting life than I thought. How about it? Are you willing to share it with me?"
Lite reluctantly put down the knife and fork in his hand, and was about to pick up the napkin and wipe his mouth, but Orwitz stopped him.
"Don't let your appetite down, we can eat and chat."
Of course Li Te would not refuse, but this time he deliberately slowed down and did not eat voraciously like he did just now.
"Did you not even eat well on the plane?" Orwitz asked curiously.
Litt put a chopped steak into his mouth and chewed it, "It's not just on the plane, but actually I haven't had a decent dinner while I was in the UK, except for potatoes and fried fish, which is so bad!"
"Don't you know that there is another famous dish in the UK called "Looking up at the Starry Sky Pie"?"
Li Te was stunned. He had never heard of this dish, but the name seemed awesome.
Seeing Lit being frightened by the name of this dish, Orwitz nodded with satisfaction, "If you have the chance, you should try it. It will definitely impress you. Its existence can at least prove that the British can actually cook."
When Orwitz said this, he couldn't help laughing. If Li Te really saw that dish, he would be shocked - a few fish were inserted into a plate of batter and only showed his head. This is what is called "looking up at the starry sky". Damn it's almost the same as "dead with your eyes open"!
Of course there is one thing Orwitz didn't lie, that is, this dish is indeed very famous because its inventor is Defoe, the author of the famous "Robinson Crusoe", so there is such a literary name.
Li Te believed it and felt a little guilty towards the British people. He decided to try this magical dish next time he went to the UK.
After the joke, Orwitz turned the conversation to the point.
"By the way, I heard you have convinced Keanu Reeves to be the first client of AMG. I'm curious how you did it?"
Although Keanu Reeves is a bit out of date now, he was once one of the most popular young actors in Hollywood. Little was able to bring such a person into the company, which is far beyond Orwitz's previous expectations for him.
Lite stopped the knife and fork in his hand and looked at Orwitz seriously: "Actually, I learned all this from you."
This is not a compliment. Lite was able to sign Keanu Reeves because he had extraordinary personal charm and persuasiveness. The main reason was that he had the movie "The Matrix".
In the early stage of CAA, Orwitz and Litt faced the same problem. To be famous but not famous, to have no connections, how can we deal with arrogant stars? Orwitz quickly thought of a solution: Since it is not enough to directly find celebrities, you might as well find good works first, and then use good works to attract good screenwriters, use good screenwriters to attract good directors, and then use good directors to attract good actors.
Orwitz did it when he thought of it. He immediately started from the best of television and movies, searched for copyright, and began to spend 10 days a month to visit the top literary agencies in the United States. Finally, he met the famous literary agent, Jenkro.
After nearly half a year of dating, Jenkro decided to try Orwitz and handed him over the TV rights to the novel "The Boys".
Orwitz lived up to his trust. He quickly designed the corresponding actors and TV programs and successfully sold them to CBS, which became a very popular TV series that year.
The great success of "The Boss" is of great significance to the CAA in the dilemma, because the company has basically solved the survival problem since then. In contrast, Litt's starting point is much higher than that of Orwitz at that time. As long as he runs the movie "The Matrix", AMG can completely gain a foothold in the industry.
After listening to Litt's talk about how he met the Wachowski brothers and persuaded them to hand over the movie "The Matrix" to him for operation, and then pulled Keanu Reeves into the group, Orwitt's eyes lit up.
I have to say that Litt really gave him a huge surprise, and that's not over yet, because Litt told Orwitt about his gains from his trip to the UK this time, successfully convinced an actress who had great potential but had no fame at this time to join the movie.
Lite said that he would start with a newcomer and eventually defeat CAA. At that time, Orwitz did not think this was a feasible solution, but now, Lite proved with practical actions that he was not joking. When AMG was still troubled by survival problems, he had already begun to implement his plan step by step.
If "The Matrix" became popular, not only Keanu Reeves could return to the ranks of Hollywood's first-tier movie stars, but the unknown British actress could also become famous through this. The successful bundling of sales is to produce this "one plus one is greater than two". Overall, Litt's plan can be said to be perfect, and even if Orwitz does it himself, it may not be better than this.
The only question now is, is the movie "The Matrix" really as excellent as Lite said?
