英语新闻丨Trump learns Biden signed with major Hollywood talent agency

President Donald Trump was stunned Tuesday to hear that his predecessor, former President Joe Biden, signed with a major Hollywood talent agency weeks after leaving the White House.

2月4日，在得知他的前任——美国前总统乔·拜登离开白宫数周后与一家好莱坞知名经纪公司签约时，现任总统特朗普感到很惊讶。

Trump was speaking with reporters in the Oval Office after signing more executive orders when he was asked if he knew Biden had landed himself representation.

特朗普在白宫椭圆形办公室签署多项行政命令后接受记者采访。他被问及是否知道拜登已为自己找到了经纪人。

"You've got to be kidding," Trump said while shaking his head after a reporter's question. "He signed with a talent agency?

“你一定是在开玩笑吧，”特朗普在一名记者提问后摇头说道，“他和一家经纪公司签约了？”

"I think he's got much bigger problems than that, but I wish him well," Trump added.

“我认为他有比这更大的问题，但我还是祝他一切顺利，”特朗普补充道。

Trump then said his administration "inherited a mess" from Biden's tenure in the White House.

随后，特朗普表示他的政府从拜登手中“继承了一个烂摊子”。

"This place is a mess," he said. "But it's quickly being solved, the problem. We're going to make America great again."

他说：“这地方一团糟，但问题很快就得到了解决。我们要让美国再次伟大。”

Biden has signed with Creative Artists Agency (CAA), which previously represented him from 2017-2020, the agency said.

据介绍，拜登已与创新艺人经纪公司（CAA）签约，该公司曾在2017年至2020年期间与拜登签约。

"President Biden is one of America’s most respected and influential voices in national and global affairs," CAA Co-chairman Richard Lovett said in a statement. "His lifelong commitment to public service is one of unity, optimism, dignity and possibility. We are profoundly honored to partner with him again."

创新艺人经纪公司联合主席理查德·洛维特在一份声明中表示：“拜登总统是美国在国内和国际事务中最受尊敬、最具影响力的声音之一。他毕生致力于公共服务，展现了团结、乐观、尊严和可能性。能再次与他合作，我们深感荣幸。”

During his previous stint with CAA, Biden released his memoir, Promise Me, Dad in 2017 and launched his American Promise speaking tour, which sold "more than 85,000 tickets nationwide," according to a CAA press release.

据创新艺人经纪公司的新闻称，在上次签约期间，拜登于2017年出版了回忆录《答应我，爸爸》，并开展了“美国承诺”演讲巡演，“在全国范围内售出了8.5万多张票”。

CAA also represents former President Barack Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama.

创新艺人经纪公司也与美国前总统巴拉克·奥巴马和前第一夫人米歇尔·奥巴马有合作。
