After breakfast, Emmanuel rushed to Suzhou, while Chen Qing traveled to several top art schools in Shanghai.
It's not an interview.
After the advertisement has just been put out, the next step is to receive resumes from all over the world. After preliminary screening, the first round of interview will be conducted. At random, a primary review will be conducted to confirm the basic information of the applied girl, and then a second round of interview will be conducted. This time, 1000 candidates will be left.
Then, Chen Qing will personally participate.
The remaining girls at this stage will also be informed of the details of the recruitment.
The final list is determined by Simon.
Chen Qing's job today is to hire some professors and lecturers from the Academy of arts to be part-time interviewers. With these sharp eyed professionals, we can determine the candidates' dancing skills in the future interview by looking at them. We should absolutely avoid making up for mistakes.
Guofeng Art Troupe will officially employ some of them in the future. After all, an art team only has dancers, which is definitely not good. It also needs all kinds of creative and technical talents as backstage support.
China has just entered the middle of October of the lunar calendar, more than two months before the new year.
Chen Qing won't stay here for long. She will return to North America in a few days. When the new year comes, the second round of interview is over. Chen Qing can spend the new year in China and finish the follow-up work at the same time.
Charlotte brenita stayed with Chen Qing in China until December 7. Instead of returning directly to Europe, she flew to North America again.
The first stop this time is Los Angeles.
Daniels studios.
Seeing Simon again is the second day after arriving in Los Angeles.
On the west coast of the United States, it's Friday, December 8th.
Chen Qing and Lin Su spent two hours reporting to Simon. Brenita just had lunch together at noon.
In the executive dining room of the cinema district.
When the waiter delivered lunch, Simon looked at brenita and asked, "well, you don't have to tell me about the general feeling of this trip to China. Do you have any specific investment ideas?"
Charlotte brenita looked at Chen Qing and her two daughters at the same table, hesitated a little, nodded, and said: "about education, when I attended some parties, I heard them talk about children studying abroad more than once. Afterwards, I did some surveys and found that Chinese people attach great importance to children's education. Therefore, I think maybe we can carry out relevant activities in China Business. "
Brenita finished, next to Chen Qing slightly squinted.
Brenita didn't talk about it with him when he was in China, but he was relieved when he thought about it.
These days together, Chen Qing can feel that she and brenita are exactly the same kind. Think about yourself. If you have a similar idea, you will not be foolish enough to chat with others at will. You must first make a detailed and feasible plan, and then find the right person, such as your own boss, in order to maximize your own interests.
Sure enough, when asked by her boss again if she had a specific plan, Chen Qing saw brenita nodding: "Chen took me to see the high-end community that Levison group is planning to develop in Pudong New Area. I think it is possible to build an international school to provide multilingual teaching. After meeting the basic conditions such as age and language, she can arrange students to stay abroad Learning. The private schools in Switzerland are very developed. I can arrange the docking. "
Chen Qing, who listened attentively, once again complained.
I don't want to hide it.
"Do you think you can make money?" Simon asked
Charlotte said: "of course, education has always been a very profitable business. According to my survey, Chinese parents are more willing to invest a lot of money in their children's education than parents in other countries. Moreover, during this period of time, I also found that the consumption power of China's elite is no less than that of the rich in Europe and the United States. As long as they do well, the profits will be very rich. "
Simon nodded slightly, then gave a smile and said, "since you think this is a good business, is it a little smaller to set up an international school in Shanghai to connect with Switzerland?"
Charlotte immediately realized that the man had seen through her mind.
In fact, the main thing is that if she wants to participate in this matter, she can't do too much because of her own strength. Women are not guilty, said: "you suggest Chen about the computer company, is not also said that you should start from a young age."
At that time, at Woodside's villa, Simon used Chinese to communicate with Chen Qing, which brenita could not understand. This was a private chat with Chen Qing during her trip to China. The girl occasionally talked to her.
This also makes Chen Qing who listens in slightly clench her teeth again.
Bichi!
Simon cut the steak in front of him and thought quietly for a moment while eating. Chen Qing didn't disturb him. After a while, he said, "you can discuss this matter with Chen and make a formal written plan. Since it's your proposal, you can take 30% of the share. I don't care whether you monopolize or borrow money from your family business. I just want to see the results. My personal advice to you is that you can do a lot, but don't do it as a whole, because what your customers want is elite education, which is never batch education. "At the dinner table, Simon's voice fell, Chen Qing immediately understood, but Charlotte was puzzled: "Simon, I don't quite understand, what does it mean to be big but not one?"
Simon motioned to Chen Qing, "explain it to her."
Chen Qing raised her lips slightly and said, "it's just a set of teams incubating many projects, but on the surface, people can't see the direct connection. At present, we can set up international schools of different levels in different cities in China, and then connect with private schools of different specifications in different western countries. Those who are willing to spend $1 million can get services of $1 million, and those with only $100000 can only get treatment of $100000. "
Charlotte Brittany heard the words and pondered for a moment, but her outlook on life slightly collapsed. Although she wanted to make money, she also wanted to provide high-level education services. She even wanted to connect the top private school in Geneva invested by the brenita family, which she read when she was a child, with the planned Shanghai International School.
Chen Qing's words, but it is completely when the business to do.
It's still a big business.
Different grades, different prices, different services.
If you invest $1 million or more, you can certainly get a better education, but if you only have $100000, it's hard to say what kind of pheasant school you will be sent to. Education, after all, concerns a child's whole life.
Noticing brenita's hesitating and twinkling expression, Chen Qing changed her Chinese and said to Simon, "boss, I think we can get rid of her and do it ourselves."
Before Simon spoke, brenita looked at Chen Qing with a little vigilance in doubt.
Then, Chen Qing heard her boss sell her words: "Chen said we can get rid of you and do it by ourselves."
Brenita's expression immediately turned to anger.
Chen Qing, with a pitiful look on her face, stares at her boss and simply lowers her head to eat.
Simon laughed, put away his expression, and said to Brittany seriously: "these days, I think you two are very familiar with each other, and should find that you are not only one kind of people, but also complementary. Chen is good at dealing with people, you are good at doing things, if you cooperate sincerely, you can do a lot of things in the future."
Charlotte Brittany is not an impulsive person, listen to men say, a little hesitant, or nod.
Chen Qing quickly reached out to brenita and said, "I'm sorry. I can understand what you were thinking just now. However, business is business. If you really follow your own ideas, it's not big and you won't make much money. Because you don't really understand what people who arrange for their children to go abroad want. Anyway, I hope we can cooperate happily in the future. "
Charlotte also nodded to face, and finally did not forget to glance at Lin Su who had been eating quietly.
Chen Qing noticed her eyes, did not hide at all, said: "I always want to Lin and I can cooperate happily, but, except in bed, it is difficult for us to cooperate happily, the way is different."
This time it's her turn to look slightly red, and DILIN glares at Chen Qing.
Simon ignored the kittens around him. Seeing that Chen Qing and brenita had reached an agreement, he asked, "what's the matter with Guofeng art group?"
The two hours before lunch are very formal about work, which is a hobby.
Chen Qing said: "the advertisement has gone out. Before coming back, the recruitment team has started to receive resumes and conduct initial screening. I have invited a group of professionals from several art colleges in Shanghai to form an interview team. The first round of interview will start in about half a month. I plan to set up four interview sites in different cities in North and South China. I will go back then. There are also support teams, lecturers and professors in charge of interviews. After finishing this job, they can choose some to act as the backstage. I have talked with some people, and they are very interested in it. If everything goes well, after the new year in China, you can decide the final list yourself, boss. "
Simon nodded slightly and said, "I recently wrote a song based on the book of songs, and some costumes and choreographers. You should take them with you when you leave. Think of it as the final assessment for the dancers and the team behind the scenes. "
"Is that what the boss sang last time?"
"No, there are only four lines in the libretto this time, and I just made a small sample to let the people you choose perfect it."
In fact, it's a beautiful classical dance in Simon's memory. It's excerpted from the stage play "Confucius" and named "Caiwei". The lyrics are only repeated in four sentences, but Simon has a deep memory. During this period of leisure, he made some materials at will, intending to restore his team.
Chen Qing did not ask any more, promised, and said: "also, in the United States, where does the boss plan to arrange them? They always need to be arranged in advance?"
"I have a property in East Hampton. It was originally built as a club, so the house is very big. The main villa has about 100 rooms, but only 26 bedrooms. It needs to be changed to 50. Now that you have proposed it, you can deal with it.""Boss, can you take it as if I didn't mention it?"
"Yes."
"Come on, I'll do it." Chen Qing took the initiative to compromise and asked, "100 people, 50 bedrooms?"
"Yes, you don't understand?"
"I understand, I understand."
After a little gag, Chen Qing got serious again and continued to discuss some details with Simon. She thought of an idea she had for breakfast on the 18th terrace of the Bund last Sunday and couldn't help saying, "boss, I found another thing?"
"Well?"
"Girls who are going to join Guofeng Art Troupe, are you going to raise them as princesses?"
"Yes."
“……”
So easy to admit?
Simon glanced at the girl: "you, and Lin, you two are not raised by me as princesses, not satisfied, want to be queen?"
Chen Qing vomits her tongue, which is very charming.
To understand what Chen Qing has found, Simon certainly won't poke it himself.
Princess is actually a disease.
If you can, you can only take medicine all the time, and it's very expensive. Most people can't afford it.
In any case, the girls Simon selected from Latin America and Eastern Europe were originally raised as maids. Because the training specifications given were too high, they have basically developed the princess, which is hard to cure.
After lunch, Chen Qing wants to run away. He is stopped by Simon and drinks coffee. By the way, she recites Luoshen Fu, Daxue and Zhongyong.
Of course, Chen Qing didn't forget it. She recited it bitterly and accused Simon of being partial. She didn't let Lin Su recite it.
Simon's case is also strong.
Since Chen Qing has recited all of them, there is no reason why Lin Su, who has only one assignment of Luo Shen Fu, can't finish it. He won't waste his time. After all, his time is very precious.
Emmanuel had already returned to San Francisco yesterday. The three girls left at two o'clock in the afternoon and went to New York together.
Simon also started his afternoon work.
Today is December 8, Friday, the opening of another box office week.
However, we are now in a cold period between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Today, there is no new heavyweight film.
Among the old films that have been released, the only one worth mentioning is the 3D animated film beauty and the beast, which started on November 17. In the third week of release from December 1 to December 7, because the market turned cold for a short time, the box office decline of beauty and the beast began to increase, reaching 39%, and continued to earn $32.27 million.
In three weeks, the 3D animated film grossed $153.9 million.
The biggest winner of Thanksgiving.
However, considering a super blockbuster of the Christmas file, the final box office of beauty and the beast may not be comparable to that of the lion king two years ago, and the final settlement may be about $250 million. Moreover, judging from the overseas market performance, "beauty and the beast" has the same good reputation, and the market response is also not as good as "Lion King". If the global box office can break through 600 million US dollars, it is considered to be very successful.
In addition to "beauty and the beast", other films in the Thanksgiving show have basically dropped out of the competition for the popular schedule at the end of the year.
Now, although the Christmas file will open on December 16 in a week's time, the public's attention is basically focused on "Batman vs Superman: Dawn of justice", which will be released on December 22.
Time Warner, which is in charge of film distribution, recently released the last Trailer before the release, which vaguely points to the "Superman's death" event that has been speculated by fans since the start of filming.
Before that, under the strict confidentiality of the creative team, the plot of "Batman vs Superman: Dawn of justice" has been shrouded in obscurity, because the popularity of the two super heroes of Batman is beyond the national level. No matter DC fans or ordinary audiences, they never thought Superman would really die in this film.
Therefore, when the final Trailer was released, it immediately triggered a strong public debate, and the audience's expectation of the film was also raised to the highest.
