The actors who have participated in this show have already had a high degree of exposure. Going out can completely help the company make money. If there is some development in the future, it will become a cash cow.

Among these thirty-two people, there is naturally the figure of Marilyn Monroe.

They are all men too.

When the other contestants performed, although they were cheering constantly, when the dream was revealed, the cheers suddenly rose several times, as if they were about to overturn the ceiling of the studio.

"Monroe, sweetheart baby, I love you."

"Ahhhh Marilyn."

Many men screamed.

Tonight, Monroe is wearing a long dress with suspenders, revealing her entire scented shoulders, the skirt is very short revealing her full round thighs, and a pair of crystal high heels under her feet.

She held the long pole microphone in one hand, raised her chin slightly, and glanced at the men under the stage with a somewhat contemptuous look. Only this action made countless men scream again.

The music sounded slowly and melodiously.

Monroe's body began to sway lightly with the music, and the fringed sequins on the skirt gleamed from time to time.

Monroe began to sing a full-sounding song, always tickling people without any rush.

One word, "Liao".

Monroe's current songs are all specially created for her by the music company. Others write songs to find suitable singers. Monroe wants songs to cooperate with her.

It doesn't matter if the treble can't go up, let's sing the bass, the tone is not beautiful, it doesn't matter, let's make the music beautiful.

She was able to enter the semi-finals, and 90% of it was due to the company's packaging.

"Why do you say that?"

"I feel it, hehe."

Ava glanced at the young and enchanting woman on the TV again, and said softly: "I have to say that she is really a stunner, and I was heartened by it."

Hardy touched Ava’s hair, "You don’t lose her in terms of sexiness, and you have a lot of things she can’t match. Acting and singing all depend on talent. You have this talent, and she only has sex. This talent."

Ava was very happy to hear the man praise herself like this, "Do you want me to take her to the semifinals?"

Hardy shook his head. "She needs a male mentor, so that's fun. Let Johnny Fontaine come."

"I see."

Ava lay down again.

Hardy continued to rub Ava's hair.

Hardy took his private jet to New Jersey, and Armand Hammer came to the airport to pick him up.

Although Hamer was almost fifty years old, he was very energetic. He shook hands with Hardy and said, "To a person with wealth like you, you can leave small things like farming and ranch to your subordinates. I didn't expect you to do it yourself. Come."

Hardy smiled.

"At the beginning of the business, I like to investigate by myself to see if it is feasible, and then build a business platform. However, when the general business is set up, I will not operate it. Instead, I will leave it to a more suitable person to do it. My strength is to open up the market. "Hadi smiled.

"This is the best quality of a boss. Only such a boss can quickly grow bigger. I somewhat understand why Mr. Hardy has earned hundreds of millions of net worth in just a few years." Armand Hammer smiled and complimented.

When the group came to the farm, Armand Hammer also gave his manor a name, Dream Manor.

When Hardy saw a group of Angus cattle in the ranch, Armand Hammer introduced Hardy, "The Angus cattle have no horns, they are all black. The batch of sires I cultivated has undergone several rounds of crossbreeding. It has a short, sturdy body, good meat quality, and a high rate of meat production. It belongs to the world's top beef cattle breed."

"By the way, where are you going to raise cattle?" Armand Hammer asked.

"At the foot of the Rocky Mountains in New Mexico, I have 8,000 acres of land, of which 3,000 acres are suitable for pasture, and there is plenty of grass and water." Hardy said.

Armand Hammer nodded, "That's right, the foothills of the Rocky Mountains are slightly colder than ordinary pastures, and it snows in winter, but it's suitable for Angus cattle. You know, Angus cattle are known for being hardy."

Armand Hammer told Hardy about the other conditions of these cattle. Unknowingly, at noon, Armand Hammer invited Hardy to lunch together, and what he ate was Angus beef steak.

During the meal, Armand Hammer talked about business with interest, "Hadi, I have read reports on you in some magazines. I admire your business methods, such as the "Playboy" magazine, which was originally just a business. The small magazine on the verge of bankruptcy has become a magazine that is popular in the United States in your hands."

"There is also ABC TV. Soon after you took over, you surpassed NBC and CBS and became the highest-rated TV station in the United States. These are all due to your business ability. To be honest, I admire it very much."

Hardy said that he was admired by the "God of Management" for his management ability.

This made him feel a little bit happy.

After the two parties had lunch happily, Hardy left. He was not in a hurry to invite Amand Hammer Hardy. I met today, and it will not be too late to invite him when the time is right.
