Hollywood Domination Chapter 77: Entertainment to death
"I can't accept such a thing." Jenny followed Cesare out of his office, "This has completely exceeded my tolerance limit."
"Hi, Jenny."
"Jennifer."
Agents and assistants coming and going greeted Jenny one after another, and even Mary was treated with a smile and a nod. After the release of "Pirates of the Caribbean", Jenny came to CAA and was rarely overlooked.
"Your anger over this matter is a bit unusual." Cesare still had the same calm expression, he led Jenny to the conference room, "Think calmly, Jenny, this thing has already happened, what can you do?" The only thing is to make better use of it.”
"So we have to allow this kind of behavior? I mean, I know "The Oprah Show" likes to play tricks like this, but aren't they a little too exaggerated?" Jenny slammed the door of the conference room, "How much effort and money did they spend investigating her whereabouts? This incident makes me sick!"
Both Judy and Julian stood up. Julian was a little embarrassed in front of Jenny's fury. He timidly greeted Cesare, "Mr. Vijari."
"Chesa." Judy glanced at Jenny with a little worry, and called out in a meaningful tone.
"Please sit down." Cesare sat down at one end of the conference table, and adjusted the slide projector himself, "Jenny, if you have no objection, shall we start the meeting now?"
Jenny snorted lightly, and Cesare pressed the switch.
"The Oprah Winfrey Show, the most influential talk show in the United States, has been on the air for 17 years, and so on," Cesare said, "I believe you already know these statistics, or Judy has already introduced you, and if not, you can look it up yourself on Wikipedia - it's a very interesting new site with a lot of information - now let me give you some in-depth introduction , to tell you why you want to be on this show. First of all, I want you to know that Oprah Winfrey’s every move directly affects housewives and professional women in the middle and lower classes in the United States. Whatever Oprah recommends, whatever If there is a show, whatever Oprah derogates, any industry will be affected. It is not an exaggeration to say that Oprah Winfrey is the most powerful woman in the United States.”

"Welcome back," said Oprah, casually dressed in a baggy brown dress, before wasting a second to introduce this week's star guest. "You may not have heard of her name, but you must Seen her face, she and her pirate ship flickering on every TV screen this summer, and of course, if you're a New Yorker, you've heard her name before. She could say She is one of the youngest leading actresses in the history of Broadway. At the age of 21, she became the lead actress in "Chicago" and played the role of Roxy, a young woman older than her age. She was highly affirmed by the critics and nominated for this year's Tony Award. IMDB has two consecutive Weekly Filmmaker No. 1, the fastest-rising keyword in Yahoo search, and the super rookie who came to our stage today——Jennifer Jefferson.”
Amidst the enthusiastic applause and cheers from the audience, Jennifer smiled and waved to the camera, and then nodded to Oprah, "Hi, Oprah, it's a pleasure to be a guest on your show."
"Jennifer, this is really a beautiful dress." Oprah walked back to her "host" and praised affectionately, "I also like your pearl necklace."
"Thank you, this is a Ralph Lauren shirt and a Givenchy skirt," Jennifer said with a smile. The straight hair is loose, and the makeup is relatively plain, which is in line with her style of avoiding heavy makeup all the time. For example, lipstick, Jenny seldom uses red lipstick. Usually, it always has some color cast, isn’t it? Peach red, that is, pink, today I used **** lipstick, and also put an end to false eyelashes and thick eyeliner, so the whole person looks quite young, like a school girl. "I don't know what brand the necklace is, it was given to me by my dressmaker."
"I hope they sell extra-large sizes that fit me." Oprah said wittily, triggering bursts of laughter, including Jon and her mother in front of the TV laughing too. Thin appearance has always been a topic of discussion, and she herself is not shy about talking about her weight. Recently, Oprah has been in her obesity period. "Jennifer, I gotta say I've always admired your style of dressing, I mean, I've seen your musical—"
Among the cheers, Jenny also smiled, and Oprah said to the camera, "Yeah, yeah, I know what you are thinking, no, this is not for the effect of the show, a friend gave it to me when I went to New York once Give me tickets, well, here's my dating story, I shouldn't share too much with you guys-"
This is the secret of the success of "Oprah's Talk Show". Unlike those talk shows that race against time, Oprah seldom talks about the current news of the day. In the first half of the show, she will find out a hot topic of the moment Talk, today's topic is the impact of frequent shooting incidents in slums on nearby residents, so as to discuss the issue of gun control. And the second half is to invite celebrities to do in-depth interviews. She is not selling sharpness and humor, but she has won the love of the audience through this relaxed and happy heart-to-heart atmosphere. On a late-night talk show, such as "The Late Show" on which Jenny was on, commenting on her clothes is an almost unimaginable waste of time, and the audience will not buy it, but Oprah's topic is exactly what makes the audience very excited on and off the screen. Interested, she can also talk about her dating life with the audience very naturally, just like chatting with friends.
"In short, after I watched the musical, I was conquered by her. I admit that I also read some gossip magazines. I have to say that every time-every time I see your street photos, You all seem very laid-back and well-groomed, which is a very rare quality for young girls these days, agree with me or not, even some girls in today's society can't dress at all."
Mother Jon snorted and glanced at Jon, who grimaced. "Is she going to talk about J.J's clothes this episode?"

"You already have a high popularity among teenagers," Cesare sent a report to the participants, "This is the survey feedback I got from Disney, in the feedback of the midnight show , among the 18-25 year olds who account for 70% of the total number, about 45% think your performance is the most eye-catching in the whole movie, Johnny occupies the remaining 40%, and Josh only takes It reached 15%. As for the remaining 30% of the 25-40-year-old group, 30% think you are the best performer, 60% think Johnny is the best performer, and Josh and other characters account for 10%. "
"I have a small-scale sample survey before the opening. Among the audience who came to watch the midnight show, 40% were for Josh, 40% were for Johnny, and the remaining 20% were purely attracted by the trailer. Let’s take this data seriously. From the data of the midnight session, we can draw such a rough conclusion that the overall performance is the best. You have 40%, Josh has 13%, and Johnny has 47%. You're taking away Josh's teenage support. Johnny still largely retains his adult support." Cesare turned the page. In , the proportion of male and female students is almost equal. It is not surprising that little girls often like beautiful peers, but we can see that men account for almost 90% of the adult group who support you, that is to say , most of the adult female audience in the midnight show don't like you."
He paused for a moment, "You have to know that audiences at midnight shows are usually more willing to spend money on movies and are more enthusiastic. The attention of the film crew."
"Oprah can make up for my shortcomings." Jenny said in a cold tone, "A well-arranged big show can allow me to gather popularity among 25-40 mid- and low-class housewives and white-collar workers."
"We should say this, you need this part of the femininity." Cesare straightened up, "And you know what they like best? - Oprah, study the elements that Oprah has been selling, You know what the market likes and what image it needs. This is not one of those talk shows you go on to promote "Pirates of the Caribbean." Your image is completely fixed and you get rid of the shadow of those female criminals. Jenny, you are only 22 years old, you can't keep playing those lawless characters, these roles will not bring you into the mainstream - and we need you into the mainstream , you have to be on The Oprah Show."
"So you arranged all of this?" Jenny asked, "Including my so-called mother?"
#
"When did you start changing your dressing style?" After a minute or so of casual chatting, Oprah changed the subject and began to cut to the chase, "Excuse me, but as I said, I'm a Gossip magazine enthusiast."
She picked up a magazine from the side of the sofa and showed the audience, "Last year, this "People" wrote some of your stories, and in this interview you shared your life experience with us, you Like Colin Powell (the US Secretary of State at the time) we have been talking about just now, and like me, they are all people from poor backgrounds and bottom families. In our words, they are the realizers of the American dream.”
The audience exclaimed, and Oprah made an understanding expression, "I know, I know, she doesn't seem to - I can honestly say - the breath of those low-income people, when It took me a long time to find my style when I was fresh out of college, and I still have some of my farm habits to this day, but Jennifer looks like the perfect child of a noble family, so to speak It's not about classifying superiors and inferiors, but indeed, your background and your performance are completely inconsistent, which makes me feel very puzzling."
"Well, would it disappoint you to say that this is all a stylist's help?" Jenny asked, with Oprah shaking her head and laughing, she mused, "I'm not saying I don't understand Your question is actually because you and I come from very poor communities, we can face the fact that the place we came from is not an ideal place for a child to live, where your rights are not given. Guaranteed, it's hard for you to learn, if I didn't rise up to change my destiny and leave this class, then by now I might be addicted to drugs, alcohol, and a single mother, and I can only support myself by stripping And kids, anytime, anywhere could be dead in an alley - and I'm being specific because my father and mother were very typical ghetto dwellers. My biological father is in the Alabama State Penitentiary Served life, can't get out of prison, he's a felon for robbery, my mother ran away from home before he went to prison, according to my grandmother, she was a dancer at a local nightclub before she ran away, but I don't remember much, the fact I don't have the slightest trace of my parents in my memory, I have always grown up with my grandmother, and I must say, it was actually a relief to hear that my father was in prison when I was six years old. I was a little more sensible then, and every time he came to my grandmother's house, my grandmother would lock me in my room, but then I would find her frowning, with some bruises on her face, and then we would become Very poor, can only rely on food coupons (Foodstamp) to survive.”
Sighs of sympathy sounded from the audience, and many viewers in front of the TV gasped. Jon had already covered his mouth, and Jon's mother kept shaking her head and stopped what she was doing.
"I know how you feel. It's a very chaotic world." Oprah said sincerely. There seems to be no other way."
"Yes, when my grandmother died, I have been in and out of foster homes," Jenny said calmly. Remember being in my first foster home when I was 13 and my grandmother had just died - I had nothing, my grandmother's inheritance was not on her mortgage, the bank only allowed me to take my clothes and then I Lying in bed, listening to the constant bang bang bang sound coming from about a street away, the next morning, the eldest brother of the family told me that the whole family died in the burglary - one my father went to jail for it Sentenced crime, it's all like a reincarnation, you know? I thought every day that I was going to die of this, or be victimized by some other crime. I was a pretty little girl, but I dressed myself up back then He is very manly, careless, swearing, he almost never goes out, and hides in my room every day when I go home, because many of my classmates have been sexually assaulted. Such a life is unimaginable for a child from a good family. It is a living hell."
Her plain face was still calm, and her tone was restrained, calm and rational. Oprah choked with sympathy, "But——but you handled these things very rationally."
"Yes, I - and as I said in this interview - have always had this idea in my mind that I must get out of this life when I can." Jenny seemed Somewhat agitated, her voice became high-pitched, "My parents were victims of this slum life, turned into perpetrators, this is a - a reincarnation, they made me very casually, I am nothing The crystallization of love is not the product of marriage, but the result of a drunken hook-up. The reason why I survived is because my biological mother was very negligent. It was not until six months later that I realized that I was not fat, but pregnant. At that time, abortion was no longer suitable.”
There was another sympathetic voice at the scene, Oprah held Jenny's hand, "Honey——"
"You know, my agent has been advising me to hide these things." Jenny adjusted her mood and smiled self-deprecatingly, "He said these things would destroy the public image I've built..."

"Compared with elegant, high-style and fashionable images, housewives need public figures who can look down on them and arouse their motherhood." Image, has troubles, like them, life is full of difficulties, not a perfect image that will make them instinctively jealous. Teenage girls want to be a elegant and beautiful young woman, but housewives are mature enough to know that they have no hope. You Your past can evoke affection and compassion in them, let them know that you are an emotionally close object, and make them feel that they are close to you. Therefore, it is the most appropriate to reveal your past on "The Oprah Show" Precision marketing, on what platform can we reveal this to the public, could it be "People"?"
"Jennifer, Cesare is right," Judy rubbed the center of her brows, "No matter how disgusted you are, "The Oprah Show" is indeed the most suitable platform. It is only a matter of time before we turn our attention to your past. Instead of leaving this opportunity to the uncontrollable media, it is better for us to seize the opportunity and public opinion on the "Oprah Show". Besides, with the "Oprah Show" Popularity, your craze will rise steadily, which will be very good for stabilizing your position..."
Jennie gradually calmed down from the anger, "But isn't this overexposure? I don't see too many movie stars talking about their private lives on talk shows, of course it doesn't mean they don't ask, but talking at length like this and consumption of private life, even as a selling point - not even a TV star would do such a thing!"
"But now they've got your mother." Cesare leaned forward, "I know you're being used - take it lightly! Think about it, if you don't cooperate, the Oprah Show "The program team gave up on her, and then what? Then she will go to contact tabloid reporters, publish a book about you, and consume your fame unscrupulously to be hostile to you, and even use it to make a profit."
"The only solution is for me to take the lead and cooperate with the "Oprah Show" to do this show and continue to stir up my popularity." Jenny admitted, "It seems that this is indeed the best way out of no way."
"Meet her, reconcile with her, at least a preliminary settlement on the surface, I will find someone to sign a contract with her, if she dares to talk about your private life, whether it is publishing a book or accepting interviews, she will face a sky-high fine , if she is honest, you can pay her a small amount of money every year to maintain her life." Cesare spread his hands, "And then you will never hear her name again, everything Solved."
#
"I don't think so!" Oprah interrupted Jenny excitedly, "I disagree with him, did you do something wrong? No, why stop you from facing your past? I believe me The audience—thousands of female audiences in front of the TV will applaud your courage, perseverance, and wisdom, am I wrong, my friends?"
There was a tsunami of cheers and applause from the TV, and many housewives picked up tissues in front of the TV. It is a monotonous small city or small town. In such a small place, there are many housewives with low education. Their most common entertainment is watching TV. The aesthetics of these housewives is actually very close to daytime soap operas and Talk shows, reality shows, or their aesthetics have promoted the development of these entertainment programs to vulgarity, or these programs have cultivated their relatively simple aesthetic tastes, which is hard to say, but in any case, some Chinese It seems to be too deliberate to be sensational, but it is the best weapon for them. Jenny's life experience is a natural tear gas for them. Even if she handles it very plainly, it is enough to move these simple audiences. In other words, it was precisely because she said it very plainly that this kind of "calmness after vicissitudes" touched the housewives even more.
"So, you never heard from your mother again?" Oprah asked again, "Which pot was left open and which pot was lifted", "Not once when you were growing up?"
"Not at all." Jenny shook her head, "I said that I have been with my grandmother since I was born, maybe she took care of me for a year or two after birth, but I obviously have lost my memory. I really don’t have the role of a mother in my life. Of course, there are some problems with the welfare system in our country, but indeed, I am a child of the welfare system. Without the welfare system, it is difficult for me to get enough food in my childhood, and of course it is impossible. After entering a foster family, I have always been very grateful to this great country. If anyone is closer to the role of a mother, it should be the country—really, the entire welfare institution and the church gave me food, so I After growing up, I have a very deep affection for these two institutions.”
The audience on the TV let out warm laughter, and many viewers in front of the TV nodded in sympathy. The patriotic education in the United States is doing very well. Most Americans are proud patriots, as well as pious. Christians. Jenny's words made them feel more close to this beautiful girl, and they also had stronger interest and appreciation for what she has achieved now. There are even many housewives who live on the farm plan to drive into the city to watch a "Pirates of the Caribbean" tonight and enjoy her performance.
"So, is that why you're wearing this ring?" Oprah pointed to Jenny's hand, "Is this your rebellion against the reason you were born? A protest against your mother? "
"I wouldn't say it was a protest of mine against my mother...maybe it's because there was never a memory of her, and, you know, among my schoolmates, people with normal families didn't Many, so I think it’s a natural thing, many people don’t have a father or mother, and neither do I, but I have a grandmother, that’s enough.” Jenny shrugged, “But this ring is indeed one of my This kind of determination, it not only represents what it means (keeping chastity), but also represents what I want to remember when I leave Alabama... To take life seriously and live each day to the fullest Meaningful and responsible for your future life.”
"This girl is very smart." Unknowingly, Jon's father also watched it. He could only see the replay at night, which was originally just a background sound for reading the newspaper, but these words made him put down the newspaper . "Also very deep."
"Think about it, Jon, she's only a few years older than you." Mother Jon turned to her daughter and said, "But she's done so much, if you could be like her, we would never ask You can only go to college in New York."
University life in the United States is always inseparable from the specter of marijuana. For many college students who lack self-control, dormitory life is often the first step in their exposure to addictive drugs. Every year, such weak-willed students leave degraded from the familiar living environment. Jon's parents are also worried about Jon's self-control, so they tend to apply to local universities in New York.
"...No, not once." Jenny also happened to talk to Oprah about the "temptation" she faced while growing up. "Of course we all know what a bad school district looks like, but I haven't tried those things, of course, partly because I'm poor and no one wants to sell me these things."
With a chuckle, she continued, "But it's also partly because I'm determined not to deal with drugs—not that I'm a saint, of course, I'm not, I spend most of my time with Going to the magazines and spending my pleasure* on it, I keep thinking that when I graduate, when I make money, I'm going to live the life of these beautiful girls in the magazines, I'm going to have the same elegant demeanor And temperament, I practice yoga and ballet in my room... I always believe that although the environment is very bad, as long as you work hard enough, as long as you don't give up hope, then hope will not give up on you."
"Then you never went back after you left Alabama." Oprah wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes moved, and after receiving confirmation from Jenny, she asked again, "Have you ever thought about going back? Visit your father, or look for your mother, what do you want to say to them, do you blame them? Hate them?"
She asked this sharp question with sympathy, and the audience didn't mean to blame Oprah, because they all knew that Oprah herself was a child that her parents didn't want.
"I..." Jenny showed rare hesitation.
#
"I don't accept it." Jenny crossed her hands, "Very good opinion, but I don't accept it."
Both Judy and Julian showed frustrated expressions, and Cesare folded his hands together.
"Which part of my analysis do you have a problem with?" he asked.
"Your analysis makes sense." Jenny's tone was very stubborn, "but there is one factor that I don't think you have taken into consideration."
Cesare raised an eyebrow, and Judy leaned back, rolling her eyes unobtrusively.
"I don't like it," said Jenny, throwing the pen on the table. "I can't accept it, I've been telling you that I can't accept that they use this to hype. A show, for the ratings, uses my life experience to hype, what am I? They actually treat me like this?"
"Oprah sold her own life experience for the ratings, what are you? Why can't they sell your ratings?" Cesare sat up straight, "You are an adult now, Jay Ferson, if you disagree with me, speak out your opinion instead of venting like this."
"Do you think it's useless to vent?" Jenny retorted, "You think it's useless for a person to rebel against one's *publicly hyped-up basic dignity?—you're forcing me to forgive those who abandoned me! Don't sacrifice I made an agreement with you, this matter is a hundred times more than the so-called flesh and blood trade. I don’t know why you think I will accept it readily. If I go to the TV station to sell your **** photos, will you be the first to make them public? ?”
"I'll appeal for all your profits." Cesare replied calmly, "What do you want, Jenny? Say no to The Oprah Show, lose all your head start, and watch others use more A bad way to consume your life experience?"
"What if I say this is what I want?" Jenny also said very calmly, "If I just turn down The Oprah Show, refuse to forgive that person, and lose all opportunities ? How will you treat me? What if I am so self-willed?—Will you follow me? Cesare?"
The room fell into an awkward silence. Julian puffed out his lips, rolled his eyes, and exchanged glances with Judy.
Cesare took a deep breath.
"Then we'd better start thinking about alternatives now." He said dryly, bowing his head and opening the folder, "Here are some of my considerations for PlanB—by the way, if this is the case, Julian, you You can go back first."
Julian stood up quickly, visibly relieved.
And Jenny said again in a tone that wanted to confront Cesare, "Sit down, Julian."
With a 'snap', Cesare closed the folder forcefully.
#
"I...have nothing to say to them." Jenny finally said in a determined tone, "I will not see my blood father, nor will I see my blood mother. There's nothing to say, I don't hold a grudge against them, but I don't have any other emotions, it's like—it's like we're very strange, I've never had an emotional parent."
"Because they never took responsibility for a day." Oprah said, "and it's their own choice."
"Yes, it's not that they can't, but they don't want to. I didn't have much relationship with them from birth to growing up, so I don't think I have anything to do with them." Jenny said, "It doesn't mean to forgive or not The question of forgiveness, to a certain extent, I am also grateful for their absence. I think if they are willing to live with me, it may cause more damage to my personality. In short, it is as simple as that between us I have nothing to say to them.”
"Yes, I can understand." Oprah nodded sincerely, "but I--make a wild guess, you know, Jennifer, you are very famous now."
"I wouldn't say I'm very famous now—" Jennifer nodded.
Oprah said, "But you're just so famous right now, listen to me, Jenny, there's a lot of people in this world—trust me, you know, I'm just like you, I'm from the bottom of the family with some complicated relatives , some people have been trying to take advantage of them when I first became famous.”
"Really?" Jenny covered her heart with a frightened expression, "Would anyone be so cruel?"
"Believe me, some people are absolutely so cruel." Oprah nodded cautiously. The demeanor of this elder made many viewers sigh in front of the TV, and was once again impressed by her generosity, wisdom and love for younger generations. Convinced, "Maybe soon, your father, or your mother who is still alive will speak to you through the public media, trying to communicate with you, if that is the case, what do you want to say to them? - you know, you are very Maybe something has to be said, and if you don't say something, maybe the public will get some wrong information."
Jenny thought about it, then turned to face the camera.
"I want to say..." She smiled helplessly and shook her head, "Thank you for giving me life, although I know that you may have just done it unintentionally. I hope you are all well..."
She took a deep breath, "I don't understand you guys, I don't have much affection for you guys, and I think you're the same, but I hope you're all well. If I can, if you have other children, I hope you can take on the responsibility of being parents to them. May the Lord bless you."
Her calm and calm look, her tolerant and pious blessings, and her appropriate and elegant makeup made the audience nod secretly, and the inadvertently revealed fragility made many housewives in the audience He sniffed intently.
"If anyone wants to interview them—" Oprah prompts.
"Please don't accept it." Jenny said, she showed a helpless smile, "If you have noticed my report...you will know how much attention I am receiving now, and this attention is an honor to me. Heavy burden, please don't add to my pressure, let me keep some small memories."
"Yes." Oprah nodded, "I noticed that you and your friends are getting the attention of the paparazzi now..."
They instead start discussing the impact of fame on Jenny's life, and what's next for her.
"...Yes, this may affect my plan to apply for college." Jenny looked a little embarrassed, "Actually, I participated in movies because I always heard that this industry pays well, and I was poor in high school , have been working part-time, so bad SAT scores, no scholarships, no student loans, I need money to get me to college.”
"So you want to take college courses after becoming famous." Oprah confirmed, "This is your plan? Isn't it to buy a luxury house or a fancy car?"
"I have far more material things now than I could have imagined as a child," Jenny said with a smile, "Now it's time for another imagination, isn't it? I always wanted to live a normal college life , yes, I would like to go to college if possible, but obviously the current situation has made it difficult to apply, and my SAT score is not good..."
"You know what?" Oprah asked, "before we confirmed you were going to be on the show, I asked your manager what kind of girl you were and what troubles you had in your life. He said Tell me a story like this—about you and your college applications, your dream schools, and your worries about your SAT."
Jenny nodded in bewilderment, showing confusion. But the audience in front of the TV was already familiar with the style of "The Oprah Show", and their breathing tightened.
#
"Julian, don't go." Jenny stared at Cesare and said, "Sit down."
"But...I—" Julian turned his head back and forth between Cesare and Jeanne, Judy gave him a hand, and he quickly sat down.
"May I ask what you mean?" Cesare's tone was already extremely gentle, but instead he threw the folder away and leaned back, showing a relaxed expression—obviously, he was talking to Jenny was right in trying to **** him off.
"We need Julian," Jenny said, her lips rising slowly and bursting into laughter. "If we're going to be on The Oprah Show, how can we be without his design?"
There was an uproar in the room, Julian stood up and let out a broken sigh, Judy also exclaimed, "Jenny!"
"No." Jenny smiled and pointed at Cesare. She grinned and said triumphantly, "I'm not saying I'm going to compromise on the birth mother matter. However, it doesn't mean that we You can’t give them something else instead.”
#
"You know, in Hollywood, there are far fewer girls who want to go to college than girls who want to be in movies - and I said to myself, this is a rare girl, she deserves a chance -" Oprah Standing up, he announced with a proud loud voice, "In our auditorium, there is a very special person sitting today, and he is Mr. Jamie Fayer, dean of the School of Media and Performance at the Los Angeles campus of California State University! He participated in the live broadcast of the show, Mr. Faye—"
Amidst the deafening cheers and applause from the audience, the lean middle-aged man in a plaid shirt walked onto the stage quickly, and Jenny, who had been very indifferent all night, finally lost her composure, covered her mouth, and walked away. body, looked up desperately, blinked her eyes, all signs showed that she was so excited that she shed tears.
"Whoa--" Even though it's the second viewing, Mommy Jon still can't help but wet her eyes with Jenny, she's completely absorbed in 'A very hardworking girl who came out of the ghetto and realized the dream of purity 'Moving. "Jennifer --"
"Dean, please sit down." Amid warm applause, Oprah let the dean sit on the far side of the sofa, "You have already reviewed some of Jennifer's materials, right?"
"Yes." Dean Faye nodded.
"You are accepting fall admissions, aren't you?"
"Yes."
"Are you happy with her SAT score?"
"Frankly speaking, if it's just the score, it's really a little bit worse."
"So do you think Jennifer's performance tonight is enough to earn her an acceptance letter? I mean, tonight's performance is enough to make a good college application essay, eh? Friends ?”
Jennifer sniffed her nose and stared at Dean Feyer closely while staring at Dean Faye. Oprah also showed a nervous expression, not just the audience, many housewives were wiping tears in front of the TV The gap held his breath. At this time, even if Jennifer's dream school is Harvard, they all think that she is absolutely qualified, let alone a school that is not very good.
Dean Faye nodded without hesitation, "Miss Jefferson, CSULA is very honored to have recruited a student with outstanding talent and perseverance like you, and I look forward to seeing your application materials."
Among the huge decibel cheers that erupted from the audience, Oprah stood up happily, stepped forward and hugged Dean Faye, "Thank you, Dean!"
Jenny, who was covering her mouth and crying, also hugged Oprah tightly after shaking hands with Dean Faye, and buried her head in her shoulder. Her shoulders twitched, obviously crying. In the process of comforting her, Oprah made a gesture to cut out the music performance. During the camera cut, the interview part of this issue of "The Oprah Show" came to an end.
"Jennifer is so amazing, so cute." Jon said in a nasal voice, even though it was the second time watching, she was still so moved that she couldn't help crying. "Oh, I really don't know what to say."
This time, Jon's father also nodded softly, "Yes, this is a very hardworking girl."
He glanced at his daughter with relief - he felt very relieved that his daughter could fall in love with such a high-quality and motivated movie star, rather than those celebrities who behaved weirdly and disgusted people.
"Joe."
"Hayley."
In countless families, the hostess who watched the replay also talked about her feelings to her children, "If you must chase stars, you should also like such stars. Isn't Jennifer wild in the movie? Is it? But she divides all this very clearly, in real life, how serious she is!"
Different from paying more attention to Johnny Depp and Josh Branch when watching "Pirate" before, this time, the housewives are already full of praise for Jennifer's performance in the movie, and even her His fashion taste is also a bit more recognized. "She is such a smart and elegant girl, so likable."
#
"Good job."
After the recording ended, Cesare caught up with Jenny and walked to the guest lounge with her side by side. "The idea of this school is quite good."
"Thank you." Jenny said while untying the microphone, "I'm going to college sooner or later anyway, aren't I?"
Although the profession of an actor does not require a high degree of education, Cesare also mentioned to Jenny about further education before. He believes that moderate charging and learning can make Jenny go further. But at the time they were talking about short courses, and now they're talking about university admissions. ——Of course, the application form has not yet been handed in, and the final form of study is also negotiable.
"Yes. You are a smart girl." Unusually, Cesare did not spare his praise. He glanced at Jenny with a smile in his eyes, "Of course, you are also very ambitious. It seems that I In the future, pay more attention to control you."
Jenny's opposition and fight against him before was not only to vent her emotions, but also to fight for the right to speak. A certain impact is also a matter of course, so now she just grinned at his sting, "Chesa, are you always so fussy?"
Cesare gave her a business smile, turned back and closed the door of the lounge, "Speaking of the source of the news, I have talked with the director of the program team. They did not take the initiative to investigate this news."
"Well, it makes sense." Jenny commented, pouring a glass of water for herself, "They are unlikely to make such a special trip for the effect of the program, and more importantly, they don't have the time-then, who revealed to them?"
"I don't know." Cesare said bluntly, "After you were about to appear on the "Oprah Show", they received an anonymous letter stating your biological mother's address and situation. After verification and inquiry, Confirm that the facts are correct. However, your biological mother knows nothing about this, so this matter should have nothing to do with her."
Jenny paused when she drank water, "You mean—"
Cesare nodded, "This should be done by your enemy."
He leaned against the door and said lightly, "No matter who it is, they are already prepared to deal with you. This is their first move, but I think it should not be the last move."
The author has something to say: Note: 1 Jamie Feyer is my fictional character, and California State University, Los Angeles is not a very good university
2 Really, apart from those big cities, the rest of the United States is a big country... a big country... a big country...
