Chapter 448 The Way of Successful People
There are many successful people in the world, but compared to the majority of mediocre people, successful people are still a minority.
Therefore, many people are superstitious about these successful people and try to copy their successful experience.
It is also because of this psychological need that many so-called success masters have emerged. There are many success masters in North America who teach people how to succeed.
They continue to use the deeds of successful people to promote their own theories of success and then make money, but in fact they do not teach everyone how to achieve success.
Everyone knows that success is hard work and talent. Later, they also learned that they must have connections and family background, but usually they do not talk about the most fundamental reason why successful people succeed.
Many success masters are hateful in this regard. They usually delete many important conditions and simplify many details of success.
These masters do not want to speak heart-breakingly to their followers, or in other words, these success masters have never been successful at all.
Many success masters often use examples of successful people to deceive others. The most commonly used example is Little Gilbert.
This was Guo Fan's first visit to North America. Several weeks had passed since the incident of pretending to be a student, and the country was as chaotic as a storm.
The five students who stayed in North America were on their own, and Minister Tian even praised them for sticking to their true intentions. And let them study hard here and have a bright future when they go back.
With this guarantee, the five students felt relieved.
Otherwise, if something happens to those twenty or so, but nothing happens to the five of them, they will immediately become a thorn in others' side when they get back, and they will definitely be suppressed and banned.
Don't doubt it, this is a world where light and dust are the same. If most people do it but you don't, then you are at fault.
So sometimes it's strange. Everyone has done bad things, but you didn't do it based on your conscience and rules. Instead, you were the one who was at fault, and no one was able to answer the question.
But now it seems that there is no such worry. Guo Fan received a call from his good friend Liu Ji, saying that the entertainment industry is now in a state of chaos, and those who are dishonest have been dealt with.
When Guo Fan returns, not to mention that the entertainment and film and television circles are already prosperous, at least he doesn't have to worry about being blocked by the so-called small circle.
Because the group of people who can be blocked will go in, and those who can withdraw from the circle will leave. The rest are just cowards, and they will probably be honest for a few years.
Liu Ji also said: "Lao Guo, I totally admire you, you are so determined and able to persevere.
I'm sorry that I advised you to give up your spot to those rich and powerful people, but I didn't expect that this would happen. I'm sorry for you. "
When the domestic gathering came to the United States, although Guo Fan had obtained the qualification, many people were covetous of the spot in Guo Fan's hand and wanted to buy it.
Liu Ji also advised Guo Fan that he would still have to live in the country in the future and should not offend these people.
But he didn't expect Guo Fan to be so stubborn and refused to give in. Liu Ji thought that his good brother would be blocked by these people in the future.
Liu Ji was still a little angry, thinking that Guo Fan was very stubborn and would have known better not to give him this opportunity.
But he didn't expect that things would develop like this, and Liu Ji was dumbfounded. In this way, Guo Fan not only did not lose the opportunity to study in the United States, but also did not fear being banned after returning.
Liu Ji quickly apologized to his good brother and asked for some advice: "How do you know that Director Gilbert Jr. will definitely pursue this matter?"
Guo Fan smiled bitterly and said: "Where do I have any judgment? I just stick to my own ideas and don't be a complicit person.
As for Director Gilbert Jr., he is not what we call an insider, so of course he will not be used to such problems. "
Guo Fan said that he understood little Gilbert, and even if he really didn’t care about the academic performance of these Chinese students, he took a step back.
But this kind of deceptive behavior is definitely intolerable.
In ancient China, deceiving the emperor was a serious crime. Big men hated others deceiving themselves the most. Little Gilbert's reaction was already considered minor.
It's just that it does hinder international visibility and must be dealt with seriously domestically. Otherwise, these monsters and monsters will probably continue to dance around, and that will be the end of Guo Fan.
Now that he has studied here for so many days, Guo Fan feels that he may not have learned other skills, but his English level has improved a lot. He has also heard many stories about little Gilbert from others. The image of the mysterious little Gilbert in the past has now gradually become complete.
Among the five students with Guo Fan, there was one named Li Haoyang, who was one of the few who could pass the examination and obtain qualifications on his own ability.
He and Guo Fan had a good chat, and the two of them also worked on the directing team together, so they had a lot of overlap in their work.
No, Alfonso Cuaron, Tsui Hark, and Cheng Long were discussing the shooting method, and the two of them slipped out.
"Working every day is really tiring." Li Haoyang swept the bottom of his buttocks and sat down directly, regardless of whether it was clean or not.
"But I also gained a lot," Guo Fan said, sitting next to him: "I learned a lot during these days on the crew, which I never learned in film school."
Li Haoyang shook his head and said: "But, are these things we learned really useful? Can we use them when we go back? You see, Ma Qiang and the three of them are very relaxed.
Ma Qiang even wanted to pick up a foreign girl, but the foreign girl dumped him because she thought he was too young. "
Guo Fan was speechless, but still advised: "Of course we in the directing team will have a harder time than them, and we are also exposed to the core departments of Hollywood movies.
They can study casually, but we can't. "
Guo Fan still has some sense of responsibility. Now that it is so chaotic when he goes back, they are the only ones who are fine. Isn't this about shouldering responsibility? You must study hard!
Guo Fan added: "Besides, Ma Qiang is very serious. He goes back to the hotel after work every day, and I see that he has written down things in his notebook.
It’s just that sometimes bad habits really can’t be corrected, and there’s nothing you can do about it. "
In the film and television industry, Guo Fan is an ordinary person, and Li Haoyang is a little better. It is said that his father worked in a certain film studio before.
And the three of them, Ma Qiang, are the same as the more than 20 people who were deported, and their families can speak well in the film and television industry.
The difference is that these three actually have some real information, and maybe their answers are more in line with little Gilbert's wishes.
In fact, Guo Fan would rather go to the crew of Little Gilbert and learn from Little Gilbert than the crew of "The Mystery of the Spell", which is rich in Chinese culture.
But the opportunity to go to Little Gilbert's set doesn't come around every day, especially for outsiders like them.
At this time, Guo Fan was very envious of the seniors who worked on the "Lord of the Rings" crew for having the opportunity to work on such a great project.
Guo Fan went to the cinema to watch the trilogy. At that time, he was very curious about how such a film was made.
He also visited the filming location of "The Lord of the Rings" and paid homage to the sacred place in the project. It’s just that things in the Holy Land are a bit expensive, whether it’s water or food.
The two were chatting when someone suddenly said: "Director Little Gilbert is here?"
"Really?" Guo Fan and Li Haoyang went out looking for fame, and sure enough, little Gilbert came again.
Both "The Mystery of the Spell" and "Warrior" were filmed in the same studio. As the producer of "The Mystery of the Spell", little Gilbert would come over at any time to check on the situation.
Just as little Gilbert came over, Guo Fan and Li Haoyang quickly said hello.
Little Gilbert nodded simply, rarely caring about the students' learning situation: "How are you doing on the set?"
Guo Fan smiled shyly: "It's not bad. I learned a lot of useful knowledge that can't be learned in books."
"Very good," little Gilbert sighed: "Old Tianshang, you guys came here just hoping to communicate and at least increase your knowledge. What a pity!"
