Chapter 245: The Best Name
The next afternoon, the crowd rushed to NBC, which is headquartered in New York.
In a building, the fifth floor is the studio hall, and when Wu Li entered, it was busy inside.
The lighting, photography, and the commissioning of various equipment have already begun at this time, and since it is a live broadcast, there is a little more preparation than usual.
The live broadcast time is set at 8 o'clock in the evening, prime time, Wu Li and others came over in advance to prepare.
After seeing Wu Li and the others, a staff member led Wu Li to the lounge to put on makeup, and Chen Gang and the others naturally followed.
Wu Li has also been on the show a few times before, and he is familiar with this process, so he is not nervous, and he asked the makeup artist to apply it on his face while chatting with Chen Gang and others.
"Xiao Li, no matter what I say for a while, you can translate it truthfully. Wu Li said to the person beside him.
Xiao Li is a translator specially invited by the martial arts program, this time on the show, of course, NBC also has translators, but it must be his own people to rest assured, after all, it is a live broadcast, in case NBC deliberately misinterprets Wu Li's meaning, it will be bad, so it was finally decided to let Xiao Li follow Wu Li on the show.
"Don't worry, Angkor, I understand!" Xiao Li nodded solemnly, looking a little nervous.
He has actually graduated this year, and he is older than Wu Li, but in the program group, everyone calls him Xiao Li, and Wu Li is so casually called, and after Xiao Li witnessed so many fierce deeds of Wu Li, he called Wu Li Angkor, and he was also called willingly.
The master is the brother.
At half past seven o'clock in the evening, half an hour before the start, someone walked into Wu Li's lounge, a white man with a kind face and a little baldness.
Jawell, the host of this talk show, is also well-known in the hosting world in the United States.
"You, good. ”
Jawell came to Wu Li, stretched out his hand, and said in Chinese.
Although the pronunciation is not standard, these two characters are probably the most common Chinese sentences that foreigners will have.
Wu Li also got up and shook hands with his opponent: "Hello." ”
"I hope to have a good time working together. Jawell said in English.
Wu Li nodded: "Okay." ”
Jawell left after a brief chat, and the rest of the time was to wait for the game to play.
On the other side, the audience began to enter.
In this talk show of NBC, some viewers will be invited to watch it live in each episode, and sometimes there will be some interactive sessions.
After passing the check-in, the audience entered the studio hall one after another, and the staff began to arrange seats.
Generally speaking, viewers with good looks will be placed in the front row, so that when the camera sweeps over, it can also be pleasing to the eye.
Among the spectators, two girls were placed in the first row by the staff without hesitation, and even frequently turned back to peek at one of the girls.
The other party was wearing a white dress, black high heels, a graceful figure, and a beautiful face, standing slim like a lotus in the crowd.
The person who came was Tina, and it was Li Li who came with her.
The news that Wu Li was going to participate in tonight's talk show was released a few days ago, so Tina asked Li Li to help get tickets to watch the show.
After all, it is NBC's ace show, and it is not easy for ordinary people to get tickets to the scene, but fortunately, Li Li's brother is Li San, so in the end, the two still got tickets and came in.
"I wonder if there will be an interactive session in this issue?"
"What, you want to interact with the guests?"
"That Wu is very handsome. ”
"Haha, you're tempted?"
"It's really my favorite genre, hee-hee. ”
......
Behind Tina and Li Li, the two girls were laughing and discussing.
Li Li turned her head to look at Tina, and the other party's expression seemed to be smiling.
Li Li pursed her lips and asked in a low voice: "Wu Li is a guest in this issue, it should be easy for you to contact him directly and ask him to help you get two tickets, are you embarrassed to contact him?"
Tina shook her head, "He should be quite busy, and he doesn't want to bother him with this kind of thing." ”
"Ah, you. ”
Li Li knew how much Tina wanted to contact Wu Li, and now she obviously had a good opportunity, but she was afraid of disturbing the other party, and this kind of mentality seemed to be really trapped.
A staff member took the microphone to tell the audience what to pay attention to for a while, such as when to applaud and so on, Tina listened absentmindedly until 8 o'clock in the evening, when the show began, she was shocked and her eyes were fixed on the stage.
The host Jawell came to the stage, and there was applause and cheers from the audience, and many viewers in the audience actually came for him.
"Hello everyone......"
Jawell finished his opening remarks and then began to talk about the Sept. 22 terrorist attack, with some photos showing on the big screen behind him.
"In this incident, there was a person who performed very well, when the gangsters threatened a mother and daughter with guns, he bravely stood up, killed three gangsters, and then faced three assault rifles and rushed through a distance of tens of meters......"
With Jawell's introduction, the audience began to burst into applause.
"It seems that I don't need to introduce too much, everyone knows who this person is. Jawell looked at the audience and said with a smile.
"Wu Li!" someone in the audience shouted.
"Wu!"
"Kung Fu Man!"
There were more and more voices, so Jawell smiled and nodded: "I have invited our guest for this issue, Wu and Li from Huaguo!"
The words fell, and Wu Li, who was wearing a suit, walked out of the backstage.
This is the first time Wu Li has worn a suit, and he has been on a domestic talk show before, and he has dressed more casually, but this time it is a foreign show, and others ask to wear a suit as much as possible, and Wu Li does not have to be a maverick, so he wore a suit to the stage.
Black suit, with a white shirt inside, looks very fit, Wu Li is tall, and his temperament of practicing martial arts all the year round is outstanding.
When Wu Li came to power, Tina only had this person in her eyes, especially when she saw Wu Li wearing a suit, she felt that her eyes were bright, and her star-blue eyes were shining.
When Li Li saw Wu Li like this, she also had to sigh with emotion: He is indeed very handsome.
Amid cheers and applause, Wu Li came to the center of the stage and sat opposite Jawell, while translator Xiao Li sat next to Wu Li with a microphone in his hand.
"Welcome, Wu Li. ”
"Thank you. ”
"You know, I've interviewed many Chinese stars before, such as Jack Cheng and Jet Li, and they also practice kung fu, is there any difference between your kung fu and theirs?"
Jawell asked the first question.
After listening to Xiao Li's translation, Wu Li said: "I know that many American audiences know that Chinese kung fu is through movies, but in fact, the kind of kung fu in the movie is more of a performance, routine, how to look good and how to fight, and it has no practical significance." ”
Jawell smiled: "You mean, you are better than Jack Cheng and Jet Lee?"
Wu Li did not hesitate and nodded: "Making movies, of course they are great, but if it is actual combat, of course I am good." ”
"I'm very confident. ”
"It looks different from other Chinese stars, it's very direct. ”
"There's nothing to be modest about, he's definitely better than jacking them. ”
......
This live broadcast, because China does not have the right to broadcast, so the domestic audience can't see it, so they can only wait to watch the edited version later, but many viewers in the United States are watching the live broadcast at this time, and in the live broadcast website and the barrage, American netizens began to discuss.
Jawell had a surprised look on his face, but he quickly hid it.
In fact, Huaguo pays attention to moderation, and in the eyes of many foreigners, it will seem very modest and peaceful, such as those Hollywood Chinese stars that Jawell interviewed before, no one will say in public that they are better than anyone, but Wu Li's unhesitating attitude surprised him.
"What about Bruce Lee, who do you think is more powerful than his exercises?" Jawell asked another question.
In the lounge backstage, Chen Gang looked at the TV and frowned: although he knew in advance that Jawell would ask some more sharp questions, he didn't expect the other party to start when he came up, and there was no transition at all.
At this time, he could only count on Wu Li's adaptability.
"Bruce Lee, I think he's great. "He came up with a new concept of martial arts, and he is known as the father of MMA, and he put the word kung fu in the English dictionary, and as a junior, I admire him." ”
Jawell: "So, you think his kung fu is better than yours?"
Wu Li shook his head: "No, you have to fight to know." ”
Jawell stretched out his hands: "Wu, it seems that you are very confident. ”
Wu Li shrugged: "Otherwise, I wouldn't have rushed directly at a group of gangsters with guns, wouldn't I?"
"Hahaha, indeed. Jawell laughed.
He turned to look at the big screen, which switched to a photo:
At the crossroads, Wu Li held a spear and pierced a person's chest.
It was the photo that was captured when he turned his head after Wu Li killed Yusuke Watanabe with a gun.
"Wow, that's cool!"
"Wow, it's so handsome, that look, that expression, and that feeling, this photo is so good!"
"I'm going to keep this picture as a collection. ”
......
As soon as the photo appeared, it immediately aroused discussion among the audience, and this photo was captured very well, so that people could feel a kind of momentum from it at a glance, as well as the power contained in Wu Li's eyes.
Jawell pointed to the photo: "This photo was captured by a photographer who was present at the time, and he heard that you were going to be on our show tonight, so he took the initiative to send the photo to us, and he said he had a request." ”
Wu Li: "What request?"
Jawell: "The photographer said that he plans to use this photo to sign up for the latest first photo contest in New York, and wants your permission. ”
Wu Li nodded: "Of course, I agree, and thank him for making me so handsome." ”
"Hahaha. ”
There was laughter from the audience.
Jawell also smiled: "He also has a request, all entries need a name, and he wants you to choose a name for this photo." ”
