We will naturally celebrate next time. Everyone returned to the Roosevelt Hotel, which is the favorite hotel of many Hollywood superstars, and the first Academy Award was also held here.

"White, can you tell me about your trouble?" Li Zitao joked about his chance encounter yesterday, and finally got to the point.

"Charlie, after creating Mickey, I had a lot of inspiration in my mind, but due to the lack of funding, now... the trouble is solved."

White raised his glass and smiled, "I have to thank you for all this. It is your sincerity that has broken my inherent understanding of capital. I respect Charlie."

"See Charlie." Everyone laughed.

This flattery was good, and Li Zitao was satisfied with his hand and pressing it out, "White, I believe that under your leadership, Disney will become a great company, respect Disney."

"Congratulations to Disney." Everyone carried the flower sedan chair, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

Lawrence was the only one sitting next to him alone, "The hot girl ran away, the shares were gone, the stock price increased by 5 times, greater investment and more interest, so pitiful."

After celebration, White Disney left in a hurry, "Charlie, those wonderful ideas in my mind are about to drive me crazy, I have to let them appear in this world as soon as possible."

Of course, the persistence of the animation madman cannot be refused. Li Zitao hopes that he can keep such crazy and eventually lead Disney to become popular all over the world.

"Charlie, I want 10% of Disney shares." After sending White back to the hotel, Lawrence rushed over with a strange middle-aged man.

"Man, don't be excited, do you have a 50,000 US dollars?" Li Zitao asked while sitting on the sofa.

"I applied for a loan from my father, $50,000, and the monthly interest rate was 16%. Lawrence sat down with a dark face.

Originally, his plan was to borrow $20,000, with a monthly interest rate of only 10%, but because of Li Zitao's temporary change of mind, he now needs to pay higher interest.

"10% is too high, how about 5%?" Li Zitao is not short of money. He still has 200 million yuan in his hand. Compared to the 50,000 US dollars, he cares more about shares.

But he did make his own decisions and directly valued 5 times without discussing with Lawrence, and bought 40% of Disney's shares.

So Li Zitao could not refuse his request, but just wanted to lower the shares to 5% and sign a secret contract.

5% of the shares are still under Li Zitao's name, but the actual investor is Lawrence, and the rights and interests other than dividends will be exercised by Li Zitao on his behalf.

"Okay, no problem." Lawrence agreed generously.

When Li Zitao made his own decision to raise prices, he felt a little dissatisfied. They were partners, and Rockefeller was an industrialist, not a capitalist, and they paid more attention to commitments.

But Lawrence also knew that there was no kindness in the world of capital. Now that Li Zitao was able to give up 5% of his shares, he was already very satisfied.

"This is my father's housekeeper, Elland Sdiknard." Lawrence introduced the middle-aged man beside him.

"Hello, Mr. Sticknard, this is Mahathir, my chief lawyer." After introducing both parties, there is nothing left to them.

"Lawrence, where is your female companion?" Li Zitao began to stimulate Little Lawrence again.

"Charlie, you will lose mine in this way." Lawrence looked at him grimly.

"That's so...a honor." Li Zitao teased.

"Maybe we should go back, Hollywood is not suitable for me." Lawrence was full of frustration. It was him who proposed to come to Hollywood. Why did this turn out?

"Charlie, do I still have to audition?" After a long struggle, Bergman still didn't want to give up this opportunity.

"Do you really want to act?" Li Zitao was a little surprised.

"Yeah, I think." Bergman nodded.

Bergman wants to become a star in the audience. If it weren't for this, she wouldn't have applied to the Royal Theatre, but she had no intention of coming to Hollywood.

Bergman was very conflicted. On the one hand, there was a better opportunity, and on the other hand, there was the cruelty and chaos in Hollywood. She was afraid that Li Zitao would have a grudge against it.

"Finish your studies first, and after graduation, I will make arrangements for you." Li Zitao has his own plans for Hollywood.

Now he can buy a company to film Bergman, but Hollywood has its own operating model and rules.

Content is king, and he didn't realize that he could wield a lot of money to let the director, editor and distribution company cooperate with him. All of this took time.

"Maybe I should make some contribution to the college and build a Avenue of Stars?" Li Zitao asked at Lawrence.

"The Avenue of Stars? It sounds good, what's it like?" Lawrence said intrigued.

After speaking out the concept of the Avenue of Stars in the past life, Lawrence and Bergman's eyes shone as they heard it: "Eternal Memorial, Charlie, this is really great."

Bergman wrapped his arms around his neck, looked at him in a daze, and gave him a hot and fragrant kiss.

Lawrence didn't mind being scattered, and said excitedly: "Charlie, you should start this plan now, it will bring you countless favors."

"Lawrence, maybe you can help me contact the men of the academy." Li Zitao smiled with Bergman in his arms.

"No problem, Uncle Elland..." Lawrence turned and rushed towards Elland Sdiknard.

"Avenue of Stars, Mr. Li, what did you think of it?" He explained to Elan again what the Avenue of Stars was, and the other party looked at him with a flashing look.

"There is a sudden idea, ding..." Li Zitao pointed his temples with his fingers and turned around, opened his bright eyes and said, "That's what I thought of."

"..."Brother, are you serious about being so casual?

"Louis is my friend, maybe I can introduce you to you." Elland said softly.

"Louis Louis Mayer?" Li Zitao was a little surprised.

Paramount, Fox, Warner, Columbia, Thunder, MGM, United, Universal Pictures, these are the eight major giants in Hollywood.

Fox had not yet merged with Twentieth Century Pictures. Its owner is film giant William Fox, which has many distribution theaters across the United States.

Among these eight companies, Paramount and MGM have the highest status, which can be said to be superior to other companies.

At this time, MGM was in the limelight and established MGM's high-quality image with a movie "Ben Hu". In just one year, it surpassed the world and became Hollywood's number one studio.

ceo Louis Mayer founded the American College of Film Arts and Sciences, served as chairman of the College Planning Committee, and presided over the first Academy Awards.

It is unparalleled to discover movie stars, resisting the company's senior management, and using antitrust bills to undermine William Fox's acquisition of MGM shares, and its popularity is unparalleled.

As the earliest large company, Paramount has many well-known actors, studios, distribution channels and deep network of relationships.

It can be said that since this period, Paramount has been sitting firmly on the top of the mountain, watching Hollywood's changes with no one to shake its status.

In Hollywood, people call Louis Mayer, who led MGM in one fell swoop and came from behind, called the King of Hollywood.

Paramount is called the giant among the giants.

So whether it is MGM or Paramount, everyone is currently admired by everyone in Hollywood. Even if there is no respect, they still have deep fear.

In terms of personal prestige, Louis Mayer is better. "I annoyed the financial backer's father can still hold on to the MGM Hollywood studios, and the rights are not affected at all, and not everyone can do it."

"Uncle Elland, I am very interested in meeting Mr. Meyer." Li Zitao beat the snake and followed the stick, and directly called Elland by "Uncle". Lawrence rolled his eyes.

"You are so polite, Li, I'm just a housekeeper." Elland smiled politely, with the meaning of his words clearly refusal.

"Uncle Elland is not an ordinary housekeeper, he is my grandfather's godson." Lawrence directly sabotaged the situation, "You will never suffer any loss by calling you uncle."

Lawrence pointed out Elland's identity and expressed his approval of this matter as a reward for his reciprocity. He thanked Li Zitao for his concessions at Golden Arches and Disney.

Of course, whether to accept it depends on Elland, but as Rockefeller's third generation suggestion, Elland cannot ignore it at all.

"..." Alan, who was sold by his young master, was very innocent. Looking at the enthusiastic smile of the Chinese boy in front of him, he could only smile helplessly and nod.

"Then I'll trouble Uncle Elan." Li Zitao smiled like a little fox.

With Lawrence's words, "Uncle" is not a waste of time. When he needs it, Elland will use his own connections to solve a lot of trouble for him.

"Isn't that how the relationship network comes from?" Li Zitao thought happily.

"I'll go and make a phone call." Elland took a leave, Li Zitao and Lawrence took out their pens, waved their hands with ink, and signed the big name on the contract casually.

"Charlie, Louis and Van Punk are coming, and they are very interested in the Avenue of Stars you mentioned." Elland brought this good news after the call.

"Mahathir, please prepare a reception room." Li Zitao looked at Elland and smiled: "I will trouble Uncle Elland later."

"I'm going back to rest, Charlie, call me when I leave." Lawrence blinked and walked towards the elevator alone.

"Thank you, Lawrence." Li Zitao stood up and waved.

"Charlie, Louis has a strong desire to control himself. As the chairman of the Academy Planning Committee, he has a huge influence on the Academy and even Hollywood. As for Van Punk, Louis's opinion is often his opinion."

After Lawrence left, Elland began to analyze Louis's personality and the current influence of the Academy in Hollywood for him.

The purpose of the college was initially established was to deal with the conflict between labor and capital. The actors wanted more rewards, while the investors wanted to reduce costs.

When the actors wanted to confront the union and the capital, Louis successfully formed the academy with his extremely inciting speech, making the Actors Guild a hollow.

After the first Academy Awards were held, the influence of the college further spread, and Louis's influence on Hollywood also increased day by day, which brought about the strengthening of control.

As for Van Punk, the chairman of the academy, it is often unpresented, or it is more appropriate to describe it as Louis's puppet.
