Chapter 983 Red!

Friday, July 27.

Ten o'clock at night EST.

Chicago.

After Zhou Baoshan took a shower, he was lying on the sofa in a bathrobe. He first called his brother and listened to him talking about the brothers who came to join him at home. The propaganda, and some weird things I saw in the United States.

When the phone was hung up, he leaned on the sofa, leaning on it half asleep.

It has been four or five days since he came to the United States, but his jet lag has not reversed. Although he is full of energy, he also values ​​this trip to the United States, so he can guarantee that he will be full of energy when participating in activities or recording programs Yes, but this feeling of tossing and turning that makes it difficult to fall asleep still makes him uncomfortable.

Just when he was in a daze, the phone rang suddenly. He subconsciously picked it up and took a look. Seeing that it was Du Yihua, he immediately woke up with a jolt—before this, no one expected that the character of "The Matrix" The US promotional tour unexpectedly arranged for this woman to lead the team.

The gossip and rumors in Minghu culture all said that this woman had a very secret origin. Before entering the Minghu culture system, she was a good dancer at the top of the entertainment circle. And the reason why he entered the Minghu culture...the reason, needless to say? Everyone secretly said that the boss is a bee.

Of course, Zhou Baoshan has also heard another saying that people outside deliberately said it to discredit his boss-they said that Li Qian is a piece of rotten meat that attracts flies.

In short, no matter how you say it, Du Yihua is not an easy woman.

Although the king sees the king and turns into a small king, as long as he comes to Minghu culture, he will be coiled up like a dragon, or lie down like a tiger. In front of Li Qian, no matter how powerful Du Yihua is, he can't stand up, but don't care if she climbed into the boss's bed, No one dares to underestimate or offend this woman.

Before leaving the country, this is what my senior brother has repeatedly told me.

When the phone was picked up, Zhou Baoshan said very politely: "Hello, Sister Hua!"

"Baoshan, let me call you first, and I will notify your assistants, translators, and bodyguards one by one later. Just one thing, from now on, take good safety precautions. If you are surrounded by reporters, take the previous Recite the answers set for you again, and you can practice it yourself. When you encounter a question that can be answered, you must give an answer. Be friendly to the reporters, but if you encounter an inappropriate question, just pretend not to hear it! I Did you understand what I just said?"

"Uh...understood."

"Do you remember?"

"remember."

"Okay, that's it..."

"Hey, hey, sister Hua...here, what happened?"

The other end of the phone was quiet for a while, Du Yihua said, "Didn't you watch the TV?"

Zhou Baoshan said: "I didn't watch it! I couldn't understand English. I just watched it for three minutes, but I still couldn't understand it. I didn't watch it. I went to take a shower."

After a pause, Du Yihua said: "It's fine if you don't read it, just remember what I said."

Paused, as if she was too lazy to let Zhou Baoshan continue to ask, she explained: "Just now after the show was broadcast, our contact numbers in the United States, mine, and Dongfangmeng Film Company's were immediately blown up. Yes. All are interview invitations from various media outlets! Do you know what that means?"

"Uh..." Zhou Baoshan reacted and said, "It means... I'm about to become popular?"

"It's already popular! It's popular!" Du Yihua said categorically: "So, this means that after about half an hour, those reporters will find out which hotel in Chicago you are currently staying in. Within an hour, A large number of reporters will gather at the entrances and exits of the hotel you are staying in! Maybe some bold reporters will sneak into the hotel directly, understand?"

Zhou Baoshan nodded when he heard the words, and hurriedly said: "Understood Sister Hua, I understand, we must pay attention!"

"Yeah." Du Yihua said: "Remember what I told you on the plane before coming here? If the planning of this matter is successful and meets our expectations, in the next two weeks, you will be exhausted." !"

Zhou Baoshan lifted his spirits when he heard the words, took a deep breath, but asked cautiously: "So, the show we participated in was... a success?"

Du Yihua replied, "Not only was it successful, but it was even more successful than expected!"

…………

Putting down the phone, Zhou Baoshan was stunned for a long time.

Before filming "The Matrix", Li Qian said that he would make a new movie. Zhou Baoshan was so happy that he almost flew up, because he knew that the entire Minghu culture and the entire film and television industry knew that filming Li Qian The film means that it must be popular! After "The Matrix" was released, Zhou Baoshan was overjoyed to see the super high box office of this movie in the world, especially when it broke 100 million in China on the first day and 50 million in the United States in two days. I feel that I am really going to be famous now!

Even with the "Huang Feihong" series, it is said that there will be a third part in the future. He, the number one kung fu superstar of Minghu culture, is definitely a first-line film and television superstar in the domestic film and television circle, but that feeling is that although he is enough It's red, but not red enough - as if it can't go up or down!

But this time, "The Matrix" was a big hit. Although Li Qian himself said that the box office of 50 million US dollars in the first two days was not too impressive, he was still very proud and felt that "Huang Feihong" With the addition of "The Matrix", I really have a firm foothold-as a film actor, it seems that I have begun to have a place to stand and have my own foundation.

However, even at that time, from Li Qian to Du Yihua, who was in charge of leading the team, never said anything like "you are popular", until just now - Du Yihua himself said that he was "already popular"!

After a long time, he suddenly picked up the phone again, found the number and called his senior brother back, and when the other side picked up, he said loudly: "Brother, Manager Du said just now that I am popular! The class I participated in The program has caused a great impact, I am going to be popular!"

There was a moment of silence on the other side of the phone, and Zhong Yuanfu suddenly said: "Good thing! Do you still remember what I told you the night before you left?"

Zhou Baoshan was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly said: "Remember! You said that if you want me to become more popular, then the more popular I will be, the more low-key I will be."

Zhong Yuanfu gave a "hmm" and said again: "What else?"

"Also..." Zhou Baoshan was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered, "I know senior brother, at this point... I will call the boss again immediately."

"Hey... That's right!" Zhong Yuanfu said, "It doesn't need to be too flattering, but the gesture of gratitude must be sufficient, understand?"

"Understand!"

"Okay! If you're busy next time, you don't need to make a phone call. When you come back, we brothers and senior brother will celebrate your success quietly!"

"good!"

…………

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Baoshan thought about it and dialed the phone.

The call was connected quickly, and Li Qian's tone was very indifferent, "Baoshan, what's the matter?"

Zhou Baoshan brewed his emotions for a while, and said, "Brother Qian, Manager Du called just now, and she said, I'm popular!"

On the other side of the phone, Li Qian seemed to chuckle lightly, and then said: "Well, it's a good thing, then it will become popular! Do a good job of publicity, be careful, and deal with the media and reporters in the United States. When you come back, I will You celebrate!"

"Hey! Good!" Zhou Baoshan said.

After a pause, he suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Brother Qian, thank you!"

Li Qian gave another "huh" and said, "Work hard! We still have a long way to go in the future. If we become popular, we must work harder!"

"Hey, yes! I know Brother Qian."

When the phone was hung up, Zhou Baoshan let out a long sigh of relief and put down the phone. He was in a state of wanting to sleep but unable to sleep just now, but now he is completely refreshed.

Suddenly remembering Du Yihua's words, he ran to the window, opened the curtain with a snort and looked down.

Twenty or so floors are not too high, but there seems to be no sign on the ground that Du Yihua said that the reporter will come soon - I stared blankly for a while, searched for a while, He himself suddenly laughed!

It's not like there is a big sign above the reporter's head saying "I am a reporter", even if there is a car driving over at this moment, I can't recognize it anywhere!

In a big hotel like this, even if it's not midnight, there are still people staying and coming back?

So, he went back and sat down, leaning on the sofa with his head in his hands, imagining that when he walked out of the hotel gate, the sun was shining on him, and the entrance of the entire hotel was completely blocked by reporters. Previously, in the country, they stretched out one after another, wishing to stuff them into their own mouths...

Thinking about it, he couldn't help laughing.

"I'm going to be popular! I'm going to be popular in America!" he thought to himself.

…………

Same day, same moment, America, New York.

The Thompson Show on TV is over.

However, the James Frank family's discussion about the shocking scene of China Zhou quickly punching and knocking down boxing champion Aaron just now did not end.

Among them, Lily is better, she is a girl after all, but the father and son James and John had a lively discussion - Lily was sitting at the side, listening to her father and younger brother discussing enthusiastically there, and suddenly felt that this atmosphere was really very nice.

At this moment, James Frank was also particularly happy:

He is too busy every day. Although the mother of the two children made an agreement with him very considerately during the divorce, the children will follow and be taken care of by the mother from Monday to Friday, but even on Saturdays and weekends, he always There are all kinds of things entangled, and it is impossible to spend time with the children all the time. After a long time, he did not participate in every step of the children's growth. He gradually found that he seemed to be out of touch with the children Many times it is impossible to communicate.

What the children like, he doesn't understand at all, and what he likes, the children are basically not interested.

Now, finally, there was such an opportunity that he suddenly found the feeling of harmony with his own children again—they had a lively discussion about one matter!

Although Little John said nervously that he wanted to learn Chinese Kung Fu, he didn't agree with it, but indeed, he had to admit that China Week was really cool!

At this time, the father and son were still discussing in full swing. Suddenly, Lily said, "Hey, Dad, how long has it been since you went to the movies?"

James was taken aback when he heard the words, not quite understanding what his daughter meant.

Lily smiled and said, "I think it's time for you to go to a movie and relax, don't you? Like, maybe you could invite your mother to watch it?"

James was stunned again when he heard the words, but suddenly, he clearly felt that his heart seemed to suddenly beat a little more—a feeling of thumping.

Invite their mother to the movies?

He hesitated, "Uh, your mother..."

Lily suddenly said: "She has never dated a new boyfriend, so..."

James' eyes suddenly lit up.

Little John was so excited, "That's great, Dad, can I go with you? With you and Mom, oh, and Lily. OK? Can I?"

As a result, before James could speak, Lily said decisively, "Of course not!"

She said, "That's a date for two, John!"

But soon, she turned to look at James again, and said with a smile: "However, I don't think Dad will be stingy with giving us a little money so that we can watch "The Matrix" again, right Dad?"

James shrugged, thought for a while, and said, "Of course...no problem! But your mother..."

Lily laughed, "Oh, my God, how did you catch Mommy in the first place? Use your means, young man! You know her so well, you know her so well, you have lived together for so many years, and you have two Child! Don't tell me you don't know what she likes!"

James shrugged, smiled, and said solemnly: "Of order, ma'am!"

Saturday, July 28, at 7:00 am.

A large group of dozens of reporters and paparazzi gathered in the lobby of a hotel in Chicago at this time. Although requested by the hotel, they all kept quite restrained, just gathered together in small groups and whispered Chatting, talking about the scene that happened on "The Thompson Talk Show" last night, but just by looking at the direction of their eyes, you can tell that they are ready to go crazy at any time.

The vast majority of reporters and paparazzi would turn their heads and look in the direction of the elevator almost every eight or ten seconds—everyone was waiting for that oriental face to appear.

At this time, instead, a car stopped at the door, and an oriental woman wearing sunglasses walked into the hotel in a low-key manner, and glanced at the place where the reporters gathered, but did not attract any attention from them.

A few minutes later, in Zhou Baoshan's room.

Du Yihua checked Zhou Baoshan's attire and image, and asked a few more questions. After confirming that he had memorized the answers prepared for him, he nodded and said, "If you are ready, Then go out!"

"Go and feel it, what is red!"
