After bidding farewell to Mr. Gates and other bigwigs, Si Mingyu started his travel life in the Fifty-State Federation the next day.
They have left their mark on famous attractions such as the Statue of Liberty, Wall Street, the Golden Gate Bridge, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Lincoln Memorial, and Mount Rushmore National Memorial.
Hollywood, northwest of Los Angeles, California.
The famous Walk of Fame was a must-see. To maintain a low profile, the four Chevrolet Suburbans were reduced to two, though the occupants of the latter were heavily armed. There was no other way. In a country where guns outnumber people and drugs outnumber normal people, one had to be careful. Who knew who would pull a gun? Even if there was a one in ten thousand chance, one couldn't relax.
There are naturally a lot of media in places where celebrities gather. Si Mingyu's behavior of parading through the city with a large number of entourage was naturally posted online, causing heated discussion.
What’s interesting is that netizens in the fifty states have speculated about his identity.
First, it's clear they're from China, as they speak Chinese. But the guess is they're from wealthy families. Si Mingyu, Zhang Ningxi, and Lin Shirui are all so handsome and young; netizens have never seen such a strikingly elegant young man. Another guess is they're Chinese celebrities, given the large entourage. No celebrity could be so generous.
Subsequently, Chinese and overseas Chinese students in the Fifty-State Federation provided information to netizens. Information about Si Mingyu was released, and even without considering his wealth, it was enough to make the people of the Fifty-State Federation look at him differently, even though he was Chinese.
The news is not only about ordinary people, but also Hollywood film and television companies and celebrities. For ordinary people, it is just a novelty on the Internet, but for them, it means new investors.
In recent years, the "Hollywood blockbusters" of the Fifty State Federation have suddenly become unpopular in the Chinese market, whether it is the new Marvel series, the Avatar sequel, or films from other companies. Especially at the beginning of the year, the release of the Chinese science fiction masterpiece "Balls 2" dealt a heavy blow to Hollywood.
Of course, this is only in China. If you look at other overseas markets, it is still extremely popular.
Now a wealthy Chinese man has come to Hollywood, and judging by his age, he must have grown up watching the "Hollywood blockbusters" of the fifty states. So, is it possible to get him to invest in a few movies? Bluff, ah, no, what's the harm in giving it a try?
So the eight major Hollywood film studios all sent people to the Avenue of Stars, ready to make contact with this potential sucker from the East.
The Walk of Fame, a pedestrian walkway stretching between Hollywood Boulevard and Vine Street, features over 2,000 star-shaped medallions bearing the names of Hollywood celebrities, commemorating their contributions to the entertainment industry. Each star is made from a single terrazzo stone, shaped into a pink five-pointed star, inlaid with bronze, and then set within a dark gray square.
"Is this the famous Hollywood Walk of Fame?" Zhang Ningxi was a little disappointed.
Although I'd seen pictures and videos about it before, standing there in person revealed it was just a pedestrian street studded with pink five-pointed stars. The buildings on either side looked completely different to someone who'd lived in Shanghai for a while. The vendors selling small goods and artwork, the street performers, and those painting and performing performance art for passersby made her feel that the only difference between this and night markets in China was the snack vendors.
She also saw a clown making balloon toys for the children. Well, the children were very happy.
"It's just a pedestrian street. You can't expect all the stars on the ground to become Hollywood stars." Si Mingyu did not comment.
After all, you just come and take a look and that's it. Whether it's the official promotional videos or the photos and videos taken by travel bloggers, they all show the best side of each attraction. Are there not many examples of people who were fooled into traveling and ended up crying out that they were cheated?
"Okay, my expectations were too high." Zhang Ningxi sighed.
"Let's go to the next place." Lin Shirui took Zhang Ningxi's arm. She also felt that there was nothing to see.
After a gesture, the convoy next to them drove over immediately. Next, they were going to the Hollywood Film Museum. At least they could see the costumes, props and vehicle sets that had appeared in various films.
"Mr. Si, a man named Robert wants to see you. He said he is from the Walt Disney Company and wants to talk to you about investing in movies." Yang Tianhu came over to report.
"Investing in movies? Are people in the Fifty State Federation so direct?" Si Mingyu was very curious why the other party found him. Could it be that his investment in film and television dramas in China was known here?
"Tell him to leave your phone number and we will contact him after visiting the film museum." Since he has come to my house, I will talk to him, but I can't delay my trip because of this accident.
"Okay." In addition to Robert, people from several other film companies also responded in the same way.
The Hollywood Museum of Modern Art consists of two buildings: the Saban Building and the Globe. The Globe houses the David Geffen Theater and the Dolby Terrace, which overlooks the Hollywood Hills. Exhibits include images, manuscripts, films, costumes, personal effects, props, various film sets, and even famous vehicles from the films.
In addition to physical exhibits, some scenes are restored using technological means such as sound, light, and images, giving visitors an immersive feeling.
Si Mingyu and the two girls liked this place very much and had been strolling around for several hours without realizing it.
"Call the people from the film company and meet at the hotel we are staying at six o'clock in the evening. I want to meet Kristen Stewart, and I will talk to whoever brings her here." Si Mingyu ordered.
"Xiao K?" Baili Feixue confirmed.
"Yes, it's her."
"OK."
"Honey, are you looking for her to make a movie?" Zhang Ningxi was very curious. She had never heard Si Mingyu mention it before.
"I just want to meet the real person. There is a failed author who wrote a novel called "The Magic Dragon Heart", and the protagonist in the novel is also called Kristen Stewart." Si Mingyu explained.
"Oh, she has a pretty good taste in clothes." Zhang Ningxi didn't care.
Neither Si Mingyu nor Zhang Ningxi had any feelings for celebrities. The former had already invested in several films, and celebrities just worked for him. The latter had been prettier than most top-tier female stars since she was a child, and came from a good family, so there was nothing to envy.
In other words, Lin Shirui would be surprised when she first met celebrities, but later she got used to it after seeing them so many times with Si Mingyu.
So I didn’t think much of Si Mingyu’s sudden idea.
