Chapter 332 Want to date me?
DePriest looked at Wang Yuanchao and said teasingly:
"Are you going to take me with you to get rich?"

Wang Yuanchao hummed:
"You'll never get rich working for others. You can only become your own boss, right?"

De Priest laughed loudly, then stopped laughing and said:

“It’s not funny at all, really.

But music companies want to make money, my God, I don’t understand it at all. Music and toys are two completely different things.”

Wang Yuanchao said:

“Seriously, you don’t have to worry about the works. You may not understand the works, but the principles of publicity and marketing are the same. Even the channels for your TV stations to place advertisements are the same.

Besides, you don’t have to come in person, you can ask your family to come.”

DePris looked at Wang Yuanchao meaningfully and said solemnly:

"I'll consider your suggestion once I'm done promoting Joe's animation show."

Wang Yuanchao smiled and said:
“Maybe when Joe’s cartoon is released, my Muse Music Studio will be one step ahead of you.

But I will keep a chance for you!"

De Priest patted Wang Yuanchao on the shoulder and raised his glass:

"Dry!"

"Dry!"

Wang Yuanchao also drank it all in one gulp.

In the United States, if there is a local boss like DePriest to help, many things will be much better. Hasbro is a large company with sales of hundreds of millions. The marketing vice president of such a company actually has a lot of social connections and power. And DePriest's annual salary is only a few hundred thousand dollars.

Maybe DePriest looks down on Muse Music now, but as long as Muse Music becomes famous, haha, then people will change.

Wang Yuanchao took out a pen and paper, and in front of DePriest, he sketched a pretty cartoon nurse in a few strokes. It was much prettier than the scathing Barbie doll. The appearance was exactly like Scarlett Johansson's, how could she be ugly?

Then in a few strokes, he drew the image of a female agent in a tights style. Well, let's refer to Black Widow's tights style.

He looked so heroic that even DePriest was surprised. It was just a few strokes of the brush, but it made people feel moved.

"Oh my god, Adam, your talent is beyond description. What is the name of this character?"

Wang Yuanchao said:

"The naming right is yours, Mr. President."

De Priest smiled gently and said:
"How's Katherine?"

Wang Yuanchao smiled and said:
“It matches Joe very well.”

DePriest took away two original paintings. He knew that Wang Yuanchao would go find his band, so he didn't waste his time. He also said to Wang Yuanchao:
"Wait for me to negotiate with Fei Meixun next. They will definitely be sent to Hong Kong. By then, they will need as many experienced painters as possible, and you will have to worry about it."

Wang Yuanchao silently calculated in his mind:

One cartoon episode is 6-8 minutes long. Hasbro makes 20-30 episodes, which is 120-240 minutes. Let's assume it's 200 minutes for now! They are advertising, not selling cartoons, so there won't be more.

700-1000 original drawings per minute, one person working overtime a day, 2 to 3 drawings, it would take a year to finish!
Hasbro only gave them 8 months, and minus some pre-production and post-production time, the total time was half a year.

hiss--

He needs to prepare 400 people?
This is crazy. We need to improve efficiency and prepare 200 people at most!
Are there so many painters in Hong Kong?
We need to quickly get newspapers and radio stations to start recruiting.

Wang Yuanchao grabbed DePriest's arm and said:
"Mr. President, you must determine the total duration of the animation in advance. It will also take time to gather hundreds of painters."

DePriest laughed:
"Don't worry, I will follow up with Fei Meixun."

……

Wang Yuanchao found Thomas, Richard and the other two and had just signed the contract.

Thomas said quickly:

"Boss, we just sent the lawyer away and were about to look for you."

When Richard and the other two signed the contract, a lawyer definitely needed to be present. However, Los Angeles, the city of entertainment, had no shortage of lawyers.

The three followed Thomas and shouted excitedly:

"boss!"

After all, they have an employer, income, can play music, and create. What else can young music lovers be unhappy about?

Wang Yuanchao said:

"In that case, everyone should go home early to pack up and see when to go to New York. There is another single waiting for everyone to record."

You can't blame Wang Yuanchao for being so anxious. Hasbro may reach an agreement with Feimeisong Animation at any time, and then he may have to return to Hong Kong to organize the recruitment and management of animation workers. That costs money and cannot be vague.

As for the music studio here, everyone has to learn to find things to do for themselves, otherwise what can they do with just a fixed salary?

Wang Yuanchao will draw up the carrot and stick for Thomas and Bruce.

Thomas felt a little hot. It was sunny in Los Angeles in April, so he didn't feel hot. Besides, the sun was about to set.

To be honest, the boss really is racing against time.

Thomas arrived at noon today. As soon as he signed the contract, the boss urged everyone to go back to work. Is he really... a donkey pulling a millstone? Fortunately, he didn't have to catch a flight back tonight...

I hope it is a choice that I will not regret. So Thomas said:

"Okay, boss.

Richard, how about we go back to New York the day after tomorrow morning and give you a day to pack tomorrow?"

Richard looked at Weiss, and Weiss raised his hands and said:
"I also can."

Richard looked at his sister Karen again, and his sister curled her lips and said:

“We can leave at any time!”

So Richard said to Wang Yuanchao and Thomas with great enthusiasm:

"We can go to New York tomorrow!"

Thomas wailed in his heart, at least let me have a good rest tonight.

Wang Yuanchao said:

"No rush. Just pack up, say goodbye to your friends and family, and go to New York the day after tomorrow morning."

Thomas immediately responded:

"I'll buy the plane ticket tomorrow!" No chance for people to regret.

The three of them then gave up and said goodbye to Wang Yuanchao and Thomas.

Wang Yuanchao originally wanted to invite Thomas to dinner, but seeing how he was trying to keep himself together, he knew that he had been busy all day and that he should wait until tomorrow to talk about anything, so he said:
"Thank you for your hard work today. I'll see you tomorrow!"

Thomas heard the music as if from heaven, and immediately said:
"Okay, boss."

Depriest thought that he was going to look for someone from Muse Music, so he gave him some time. Richard and the other two were let go first. Thomas flew over immediately after receiving his instructions to sign the artists and was exhausted again. As a result, Wang Yuanchao was left alone.

I ordered dinner at the hotel, but I didn’t dare check my phone because I had already used up a lot of battery by streaming music.

Fortunately, I have a power bank that can charge it several times!
Because the power voltage in the United States is 110V! It is impossible to charge the mobile phone, which is really hard to guard against.

Bored, he decided to check out the nightlife in Los Angeles.

So he asked the hotel front desk lady:
"I want to go out for a drink, any good places to recommend?"

The front desk clerk said:
"If you want to invite me for a drink, you have to wait until I get off work at 8 o'clock."

Wang Yuanchao was stunned. He just wanted to find a local to ask about the situation, but the hotel was the local boss with the most informed information!

Although she looks OK, it's not like Wang Yuanchao hasn't seen beautiful women before. This receptionist is really narcissistic!
"I just..." After thinking about it, Wang Yuanchao felt that there was no need to explain, so he turned around and went out directly. Just go for a walk, what is there to be afraid of?

He had limited knowledge of Los Angeles, and what he had seen in the movies was what it would look like decades later. After walking around, he still couldn't find the place. He thought it would be too embarrassing and unsafe to ask people outside where the nightclub was.

Next time I must ask Richard and his friends to take me around. They perform in bars and nightclubs in Los Angeles, and I am very familiar with them.

When he returned to the hotel, the girl at the front desk was just out. Seeing him coming back, she smiled and said:
"I thought you had already run away and were waiting for me outside? Since you are so sincere, I will buy you a drink tonight!"

Wang Yuanchao thought, since she invited him, he should give her face and check out the nightlife culture in Los Angeles. So he followed the tall receptionist.

Wearing high heels, she is only half a head shorter than him! She must be 1.7 meters tall!
The girl at the front desk walked to a white sports car with a long front. Wang Yuanchao couldn't help but look at the logo. It was actually a Porsche!

Can the receptionist drive a Porsche?
Isn't this world a little too crazy?
"Get in the car?"

Wang Yuanchao got into the car and fastened his seat belt obediently.

"Adam, right? Just call me Diane."

The girl was so proactive, Wang Yuanchao couldn't be too passive, and said:
"Diane. With your qualifications, you can definitely try going to Hollywood!"

Diane drove skillfully and said:
"I left Broadway just to try my luck in Hollywood! I've already been promoted to the leading role in a musical there!"

Wang Yuanchao looked at this girl with a new respect and said:
"So, how do you do the front desk?"

Diane smiled:

"Since I can't find any opportunities now, I have to find something to do, right? Besides, this luxury hotel also gives me the opportunity to meet some big names in Hollywood!"

Wang Yuanchao thought about it and said:

"It's a pity that I'm not a big shot in Hollywood yet."

Diane laughed and said:
"It's too tiring to stare at the big names in Hollywood every day. It's nice to change things up once in a while. I've never dated an Asian before. And you're very handsome."

Yanma is so direct.

Wang Yuanchao sighed, whether it is the music industry or the film and television industry, are they all so tough and liberated?
Since you guys are doing this, he doesn't dare to do anything else.

So he changed the subject:
"Which agency did you join?"

Diane glanced at him, sensing that he was a little uncomfortable, and smiled:
"Why, are you afraid that I will eat you? Asians do seem to be timid."

As she spoke, she actually licked the corner of her lips with her tongue. Under the dim street lights, she looked particularly sexy.

Being called a coward by a woman, Wang Yuanchao didn't care anymore but couldn't help but say:

"I'm just afraid that you'll be conquered by me and fall in love with me. We're destined to have no future, aren't we?"
