Chapter 21: Please help, Mr. Dave
At the end of September, the temperature in Los Angeles is still so hot, and passing through the streets of Hollywood Boulevard in Los Angeles, you can still see countless hot girls wearing little hot pants and camisoles, and hot bodies swaggering through the market.
Unlike the reserved and introverted girls of the East, the girls of the West often don't mind showing off their hot bodies to the outside world, even if they attract a lot of squinting eyes, because for the girls, it means that they are very attractive.
Of course, American girls can't see their inner character from the way they dress, and many times some scantily dressed girls are actually a very well-behaved and well-behaved character in their bones.
This is completely different from Oriental girls.
After entering the 21st century, whether it is another time and space, or in this parallel time and space of the Earth Federation, the openness of girls in China is far greater than that of Western girls, but this 'openness' is just a derogatory term.
Long legs, hips under small hot pants, camisoles, long flowing hair and playful and cute short hair, beautiful girls with their heads held high are embellished on Hollywood Boulevard, becoming a very distinctive landscape.
When you come to Hollywood Boulevard in Los Angeles, there will definitely be eyes, and if you can't see beautiful women here, it can only be said that you are unlucky and unlucky.
It's a pity that Kim Hyun-tae is not very interested in these girls, after all, he has the soul of a middle-aged man in his thirties in his bones, so it is impossible to be like a real teenage boy, who can't take his eyes off when he sees beautiful women, and even has some obscene thoughts.
Kim Hyun-tae came here with his daughter, mainly to the publishing house, and asked Dave to help him find a lawyer and accountant to help him declare personal income tax payments.
Although he also hoped that Dave would give him a little help in getting his driver's license, Kim Hyun-tae ultimately felt that this was too unlikely.
After all, here in the United States is not like China, you can easily get a driver's license by doing things through the back door.
Kim Hyun-tae thought about it, even if he found Dell, it would be impossible to go through the back door.
Therefore, in the end, I still have to go through the process honestly, apply and then take the test, and finally get my driver's license.
Therefore, Kim Hyun Tae is now coming to the publishing house, and the main purpose is to let Dave help him find someone to declare personal income tax, but the driver's license is not so important.
The taxi stopped on the side of the road, and Kim Hyun-tae paid 32 yuan, then removed his daughter's stroller from the trunk and put her daughter back into the stroller.
The little guy sat in the stroller and looked left and right, which was a little dizzying.
Located in the most prosperous and lively area of Hollywood Boulevard, the most pedestrians and tourists, and the location of the Huaxia Theater, there are so many people here that it is incredible.
Children like to be crowded, and Kim Hyun-tae's daughter Coco is no exception.
Although she didn't know any of these people, this didn't prevent the little guy from greeting everyone and going to flirt with them.
"Hey, hey!"
Sitting in his own stroller, the little guy kept shaking his white and tender little arms with a smile on his face, and greeted the male and female pedestrians who came to Yingmian with her milky voice.
There weren't a lot of people who responded to her, after all, this is not the Santa Monica Beach community, so most of the time, pedestrians didn't respond to Coco's behavior, but just passed by.
But the little guy was not hit, but he was still happy.
"My daughter's personality is quite outgoing and optimistic. Kim Hyun-tae did not stop her daughter's self-enjoyment, but pushed the stroller with a smile, and let her daughter have fun by herself, looking at her and secretly happy in her heart.
As a parent, he doesn't want his child to have a good character, and Kim Hyun-tae is no exception.
The place where Kim Hyun-tae got off the bus was not far from the publishing house, so after a while, he pushed his daughter's stroller to the door of the publishing house.
Pushed open the revolving glass door and walked into the lobby of the publishing house, because there was a stroller and a little guy in the car, the people who were going to come out and the people who were going to enter the door were very polite to let go.
When he came to the front desk, he was still the same girl he had seen when he came last time, Kim Hyun Tae reported his name, and then asked the blonde girl at the front desk to contact Dave, saying that he had arrived at the publishing house and asked Dave if he had time to meet now.
After making a phone call at the front desk blonde girl, Dave who contacted him heard that it was Kim Hyun Tae who came to the publishing house, and quickly told the blonde girl at the front desk that she told Kim Hyun Tae to let him go directly to the office on the fifth floor to find herself.
After relaying Dave's words to Kim Hyun-tae, the blonde girl at the front desk finally couldn't hold back and asked a question that had made her curious since Kim Hyun-tae came last time.
"This child is so cute, are you helping relatives take care of it?"
Kim Hyun Tae, who had already turned around to leave, stopped after hearing this, turned his head to look at the blonde girl with a curious face, and responded with a smile on his face: "No, this is my daughter, what, do we father and daughter look different?"
In fact, the little guy's appearance is still somewhat similar to his father, and if you look closely, you can still see this.
It's a pity that the blonde girl at the front desk doesn't seem to notice.
"I don't think you're too old, how did you have a child? You're not kidding, are you?"
The girl's eyes widened, her blue eyes showed a look of disbelief, and she looked at Kim Hyun Tae fixedly and expressed her opinion.
Kim Hyun-tae didn't care much, but patiently explained: "Yes, I'm only 16 years old this year, but for some special reasons, this little guy is indeed my daughter, and I'm not joking with you." ”
16 years old!
Sure enough, it's very young.
What is the special reason, it is not that after young men and women secretly tasted the forbidden fruit, because some measures were not in place, there was finally the birth of such a little guy.
The imagination of the front desk sister paper is very rich, and she has already made up the causes and consequences of her own brain, which is worthy of working in a publishing house.
After explaining a little, Kim Hyun Tae stopped staying and walked straight to the elevator and began to wait for the elevator.
And the sister paper at the front desk has no interest in Kim Hyun-tae at this time.
A minor father with a child is not attractive to a woman like her, even if the boy is handsome, tall and in shape, but still not good.
Taking the elevator to the fifth floor, Kim Hyun Tae came to the door of Dave's office familiarly, at this time the door of Dave's office was not closed, it was completely open, so when he came to the door, Kim Hyun Tae first saw the secretary named Lola, who was sitting behind her exclusive desk, bowing his head and staplifying the stack of documents in front of him with staplers.
"Hey, Lola. ”
Because of Dave's explanation, Kim Hyun-tae pushed the stroller in without being polite and said hello to Lola.
The little guy sitting in the stroller, like his father, raised his pink little arm with baby fat to Lola and said "hi".
"Hey, cute little guy. Lola stopped what she was doing and responded with a bow to Kim Hyun Tae, and then the original stereotypical expression on her face instantly changed to a smile, looked down at the little guy sitting in the stroller, and also waved her hand to interact.
Lola responded, and the little one was very happy, and she was happily sitting in the stroller and giggling, obviously excited that someone could interact with her.
"Mr. Dave is inside, you can go and see him directly, and I can take care of the child. “
Lola asks Kim Hyun Tae to find Dave on her own, and she can help Kim Hyun Tae take care of her daughter Coco.
Today's Kim Hyun Tae is not an ordinary boy who came to the publishing house for the first time more than a month ago, because "A Song of Ice and Fire" sold 2.1 million copies, and now Kim Hyun Tae can be regarded as a best-selling book author signed by the publishing house.
And the follow-up sales outlook of "A Song of Ice and Fire" is very optimistic, so Kim Hyun Tae can bring long-term benefits to the publishing house, so as Dave's secretary, Lola will of course have some changes in her attitude.
Besides, Lola, who seems to be stereotypical and has no interest, actually likes children very much, so she volunteers to take care of Coco, and there is no problem at all.
Kim Hyun-tae did not refuse Lola's volunteer, he nodded at Lola, and after saying 'thank you', he left the stroller outside, and walked in the direction of Dave's office with the open door.
"Oh, dear Kim, don't you know what you've come to me for?"
Kim Hyun Tae appeared at the door, and Dave, who was immersed in the papers, immediately stopped what he was doing, stood up and walked around the desk, opened his arms, and walked over very warmly.
He and Dave exchanged symbolic hugs, and then the two men, one big and one small, quickly separated, after all, this was not a hug between a man and a woman.
Kim Hyun-tae told Dave his intentions straight to the point.
"That's right, Mr. Dave, you said you could help me find a lawyer and an accountant to deal with personal tax issues, and I happened to go to the bank to have a look, so I stopped by the publishing house, hoping that you can help me in this regard. ”
It's not a big deal, Dave can call someone to deal with it with a phone call.
Kim Hyun-tae, an author whose novels are a big seller, expects that he will receive a lot of royalties every month for a long time to come.
It is unwilling to hire such a person without a lawyer and an accountant.
Because this can guarantee their own income for a long time, and the employer is not bad for money.
Lawyers and accountants, two professions, are the most willing to work for people who are not bad for money, in fact, when dealing with rich people, no one will refuse, right?
"No problem, I'll call the law firm, and the accounting firm will ask them to send someone over. “
Dave was not lazy on his side, and after Kim Hyun Tae said what he meant, he immediately walked to his desk, picked up the phone and dialed the number.
It's just that the number Dave dialed is not a 'law firm' or an 'accounting firm' as he says, but the private number of Anne's housekeeper Nord in New York.
