Michael Ovize, the founder of CAA, is the king behind the scenes in Hollywood.

The people who attract you must have some similar qualities, the same preferences and the same ideas.

However, more often, the other party has something he lacks but must need.

There is a special kind of person in this world. They are people who design their own lives.

Is a person who paints on the canvas of his life with a brush.

On the surface, they seem to cater to the world, but in fact they are rebellious and stubborn.

They never cater to others, only draw their own favorite pictures.

Ovize and Buffett are both such people.

Ovize is a man hiding behind Hollywood.

He is one of the founders of CAA (American Innovative Elite Cultural Economy Co., Ltd.).

To put it simply, he works as a broker.

Cultural agency is the agent of artists in the fields of film, television, music, stage play, games, sports and the Internet.

The biography of Michael Ovize, Hollywood's chief star agent, records Ovize's whole life experience from childhood to entering the economic field, founding CAA and leaving Disney.

Ovize likes art, business, people, events and history.

When he first started working, he was "a madman who always asked questions."

At first, he didn't know what he was suitable for, but he knew, "I want to be such a person." For example, if someone is in trouble at 4 o'clock in the morning, he can count on me to solve the problem. "

He first defined a large scope: "It should be related to entertainment." Then go for a walk and have a look, and you will be sure when you walk.

Once he made up his mind, he became a wise red ant, walking in a straight line along his own road.

Even if there is another way to reach the finish line faster, he stubbornly follows the original road.

There are no shortcuts, no other scenery.

Ovitz has a vision.

That is, what Jobs said is the most important thing for people is "taste". Although most people think that taste is innate, it is a gift.

I think if you want to love something, love will naturally cultivate you.

People with vision will see some details that others can't see, and have the intuition to find talents.

Celebrities known to the public are often mature. However, when talent cannot be revealed, only those with foresight can see the hidden light.

The so-called "a thousand-mile horse makes a thousand-mile horse", Bole is rare.

Would you rather be a swift horse or a Bole?

Ovize is a person who sends messages and establishes contacts.

He found countless good scripts, good actors and good directors. Undoubtedly, he can see whether a person is capable of having a bright future.

Found Tom Cruise; Signature Stallone; Barry Joseph Richmond Levenson, one of the most successful directors in Hollywood, embarked on the road of career development.

Through his Aliens, Rain Man, Dancing with Wolves, and so on, countless films he bridged have won Oscar statuettes.

There is a charming feature in Ovize's character, which is the contradiction in his character.

Like Hermes, the only undefined god in Greek mythology.

It's hard to say what kind of personality he is. He is speculative and silent, strong and low-key, invisible and ubiquitous.

People who cannot be defined are special people.

Ovize is like a stone pusher, stubborn and firm.

The director he wants to sign often needs to make him pay 200% energy and perseverance.

Art practitioners have their own personalities, and it is difficult to trust others easily.

He is used to using the strategy of direct circuitous, directly telling each other the willingness to cooperate. It is normal that he was rejected when he was not famous in the early days. He has long been used to it.

"Can I call you every Wednesday?" After the other party refuses, it is often embarrassing to refuse again.

Then, every Wednesday, the phone starts to ring, which is more accurate than the weather forecast. Ovize has been playing for two years.

In the end, the director couldn't beat him and had to sign a contract with him.

Cute as a stone?

Ovize always forgets failure and is not afraid of rejection.

He can always start calling the next day after being rejected on the first day. It seems that yesterday's rejection never happened.

He can do very immoral and crazy things for his work, such as climbing the conference table and starting to tap dance clumsily in order to sign a client. He can't dance at all, and he doesn't like dancing.

A big reason for Ovize's success in his career comes from his hobbies, which formed his character.

He likes art, China traditional culture, ethics and the art of war.

He used the art of Sun Tzu's art of war in Hollywood, a mixed place.

He is a perfect blend of eastern and western cultures, which is undoubtedly very suitable for places like Hollywood.

He designed his own life and became the person he wanted to be.

When he met him, he did not hesitate to choose the business that suits him best: the business about art and making money.

He got what he wanted most: freedom and respect.

He is a bridge. He must like me to compare him like this, because it is the most accurate and perfect portrayal of his life.

There is a description of the bridge in Yang Shuo's Kapok:
