Originally, Xu Shi was just going to take Zhang Kui over first, and the others would come over later, but he didn't expect Zhao Xiaoqing and Pu Xiaolu to come with him, so he needed to be more troublesome in the place where he lived, and he couldn't stay in a hotel casually as he had arranged before.

Fortunately, Xu Shi is a rich man now, and he is very rich.

Before flying to the United States, Xu Shi called William and asked him to help find a house.

"Okay, eldest sister, you go back, I'll call you when I arrive. Xu Shi waved helplessly at the eldest sister and the second sister.

"Who is worried about you, remember, take care of Xiaoqing and Xiaolu in the United States, and you can't let anything happen to them. The eldest sister advised.

Xu Shidao: "Don't worry, I will remember." ”

Zhao Xiaoqing and Pu Xiaolu were talking to their parents, at first Zhao Xiaoqing and Pu Xiaolu didn't feel anything, especially Zhao Xiaoqing, and there was a feeling of leaping with a fish.

But at this time, I don't know if it was affected by Xu Yan, and my eyes were actually red.

The second brother-in-law saw the appearance of the mother and daughter, and persuaded him: "Xiaoqing, or you don't go to the United States, just stay at home." ”

Originally, the second brother-in-law thought that after saying this, he would at least make Zhao Xiaoqing hesitate.

But what I didn't expect was that not only Zhao Xiaoqing, but even Xu Yan's face changed.

"Haha, what, Dad, I'll miss you, I'm about to take off, I'm over. Zhao Xiaoqing said with a haha.

Xu Yan also said at the same time: "Don't delay your child's learning, don't hurt her self-motivation, don't stay." ”

Seeing the mother and daughter changing their faces like a mold, the second brother-in-law couldn't help but cover his forehead, he should have thought of it a long time ago.

Compared with the weirdness on their side, Pu Xiaolu's family seems much more normal.

waited until it was almost time to register, and Xu Shi's side was finished.

"Eldest sister, second sister, you can travel to the United States when you have nothing to do, anyway, our family is not short of money now, there is no need to be so busy. Xu Shi said.

Xu Shi mainly said this to the second sister, there is no way, who makes the company inseparable from the eldest sister now.

..........

When he arrived on the plane, Xu Shi encountered some passengers asking for autographs, and Xu Shi did not refuse these as long as they did not interfere with the normal work of the plane.

Along the way, I came to the United States safely, and as soon as I got off the plane, William and the president of his company came to greet him.

They also prepared a Chinese reception dinner in accordance with Chinese customs, and at the dinner table, everyone didn't talk about anything serious, they were all talking about gossip or something.

That night, Xu Shi and the others stayed in the presidential suite of the hotel that William had helped book.

"Xu, don't you need to adjust your schedule?" William's voice on the phone seemed weak.

He didn't expect Xu Shi to actually look at the house today, and he thought that Xu Shi would have to adjust it for at least a day or two.

Xu Shi said: "I almost slept on the plane, and I drank a lot of wine last night, so I have already adjusted." ”

"Okay, then you wait for me. William had no choice but to get up and prepare to come.

Unlike Xu Shi's regular schedule, William is used to staying up late every day, going to bars, going to nightclubs and the like.

"Brother Xu. Zhang Kui also got up at this time.

"Do you want to walk around by yourself or go look at the house with us later, we will be here for a while in the future, and I am going to buy a house, so it will be more convenient. Xu Shi said.

Zhang Kui scratched his head and said, "I'm not going, I want to take this opportunity to go shopping, I haven't been abroad yet." ”

"That's fine. Xu Shi didn't force it.

Then he came to the door of Zhao Xiaoqing and Pu Xiaolu's room and knocked on the door, "Get up quickly, I'm going to see the house soon, don't say that you don't like it when the time comes." ”

"I know~" Zhao Xiaoqing's weak voice came from the room.

But what Xu Shi didn't expect was that after they were all ready, William actually came over at noon, and he happened to come with food.

"It just so happens that I'm hungry too. William walked over with a grin.

Xu Shi said speechlessly: "Didn't you say that you would come over soon? ”

"Hehe, what, I'm sorry, I was thinking about resting for a minute and waking up, who knows if I slept straight to now. William was also a little embarrassed.

Indeed, Xu Shi has been waiting for so long, and he is sleeping at home, and he is embarrassed to put it at anyone.

Xu Shi didn't care, after all, he also asked William for help this time.

However, in the afternoon, William arranged very well, they had just finished their meal and came to the door of the hotel, and there was a real estate agent waiting here.

"You are Mr. Xu, right?" The real estate agent was a handsome young man, and after seeing Xu Shi, he greeted first, and then looked at Xu Shi with a somewhat stunned look.

"Xu-Shi?" the young man's pronunciation is somewhat non-standard.

Xu Shi nodded and said, "Yes, my name is Xu Shi." ”

"Wow, Kung Fu Xu!" The young man jumped up excitedly when he first saw his idol, and then he also played a fist.

"Mr. Xu, can you sign my name? I'm a fan of yours, my name is David. The young man said excitedly.

Xu Shi didn't expect that he still had fans in the United States, and he met him as soon as they met, he looked at William with some suspicion, it couldn't be that this guy wanted to apologize and deliberately prepared it, right?

William also understood what Xu Shi meant, and said a little unpleasantly: "Don't look at me, I'm not so boring." ”

As he spoke, he said to David: "Didn't you see the famous director William?"

David shrugged his shoulders and said, "I'm sorry, I'm a fan of Mr. Xu, not yours." ”

William breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.

Xu Shi doesn't care if this David is pretending to be or not, it's just a signature.

"Mr. Xu, I have long heard that you are going to come to our United States to make a movie, is it going to be filmed this time?" After signing his name, David asked with some excitement.

Xu Shi looked at William, like these things, Xu Shi handed them over to Meida Company.

William nodded, indicating that it was okay.

"Yes, I'm going to start shooting a new movie in the U.S. this time, and I hope for a lot of support when the time comes. ”

"Of course, I'm very much looking forward to your new movie. ”

But I have to say that it was only because of this small episode that Xu Shi had a very good impression of David.

At least Xu Shi also decided that as long as he couldn't find a suitable house, then he was not ready to change to a real estate agent.

Along the way, David kept chatting with Xu Shi, and learned from his mouth that he had actually been a Chinese kung fu fan since he was a child, and he had been completely fans of Xu Shi since he watched Xu Shi's "One Man's Martial Arts".

Zhao Xiaoqing and Pu Xiaolu saw that Xu Shi had fans in the United States, and they were also a little proud.

Then the two actually began to discuss their careers in the United States, that is, some of Xu Shi's official accounts in the United States.

For this point, Zhao Xiaoqing and Pu Xiaolu also have experience, although the national conditions are different, but there will not be a lot of difference.

Xu Shi didn't care about the discussion of the two, but looked at the house carefully.

In the afternoon, Xu Shi and they were all following David to see the house, David also knew Xu Shi's worth, and when he was notified by William before, he knew that the customer this time was not bad for money, so the houses arranged were very good.

Although it is not a top luxury house, it is also worth tens of millions of dollars.

"What do you think of this?" Xu Shi asked Zhao Xiaoqing and the others.

The house in front of him is the most satisfying one that Xu Shi has seen now, with a total area of almost 2,000 square meters, and there is no shortage of swimming pools, basketball courts, gardens, etc.

And the house is also in line with their aesthetics, the furniture and decoration inside are relatively new.

Another point is that there are more rooms, and each room basically has its own independent bathroom.

In two months, Xu Yan and Xu Cheng will come over, and they will all live here at that time, and Xu Shi needs to buy a bigger house.

Zhao Xiaoqing and Pu Xiaoluzi looked carefully many times, especially Pu Xiaolu, who looked more carefully, and kept looking at all kinds of furniture.

"Very good, uncle, I like this house, Xiaolu, what do you think?" Zhao Xiaoqing said after reading it.

Pu Xiaolu was also very satisfied, but when Xu Shi was surprised, she actually found some worse places, and when she spoke, she also looked at David, and the meaning was obvious, that is, to talk about the price.

............

The next day, Xu Shi negotiated the price with the landlord, and the landlord moved out of some of the furniture that Xu Shi wanted to replace first.

"Zhang Kui, you choose a room and stay with us during this time in the United States. Xu Shi said to Zhang Kui.

Zhang Kui immediately said: "Don't, Brother Xu, this is not suitable, I'd better go out and find a house to live in." ”

Zhang Kui: This is really not polite.

If Xu Shi lived here alone, Zhang Kui would be able to live with a cheeky face, but there were obviously two people here, Zhao Xiaoqing and Pu Xiaolu.

Zhang Kui didn't know if he was wrong, but he seemed to notice that the little girl Pu Xiaolu looked at Xu Shi with a strange look.

And it's very inconvenient to live together, Zhang Kui can't go chic if he wants to.

"You really can't live there? You know, the company won't give you a subsidy this time. Xu Shi said.

This time, Xu Shi really didn't plan to give Zhang Kui a subsidy, because this opportunity is a subsidy, and I don't know how many people are jealous of this opportunity.

Zhang Kui hurriedly shook his head and said, "I really don't need to, I have already made an appointment with William to rent a house next to his house, and I am not short of money for the time being." ”

Zhang Kui is really not short of money, he has followed Xu Shi to make movies in the past two years, although he has always been a puppet, but Xu Shi has not given a penny less money.

Xu Shi also knew that Zhang Kui and William had the same smell, so he didn't bother to care about them, and when he heard Zhang Kui say this, he didn't say anything more.

"That's okay, by the way, come over for a meal tomorrow night, call William along, and the day after tomorrow will officially start work, and then there will be no such idle time." Xu Shi said.

"Okay. ”

On this day, Xu Shi also replaced some furniture and electrical appliances, and it was good that day, and he moved in directly that night.

As for the formalities and other issues, there is no need to worry about it, and someone will naturally help with it.

............

Since Xu Shi didn't know anyone in the United States, he only invited William, Thomson and others to the dinner the next day.

"Xu, do you have any requirements for this casting?" Thomson asked with a smile.

Xu Shi didn't prepare any luxurious dinner, just a few people gathered together for a barbecue, but even so, everyone ate deliciously, and seemed to be more casual and able to chat about topics.

Xu Shi smiled and said, "Are you interested?"

"Of course, who wouldn't want to play a major role in your movie these days?" said Thomson seriously.

It's really not that Thomson is complimenting Xu Shi, but the truth.

Now in fact, many stars in Europe and the United States have a problem, that is, it is not easy to open the Chinese market.

Especially as the Chinese market is getting bigger and bigger, the interests in it are simply amazing, who doesn't look blushing?

If they can open the Huaxia market, then their income is likely to increase several times, which is the power of the Huaxia market now.

And Xu Shi's appeal in Huaxia is beyond doubt, if they can catch this bus, it is likely to save them a lot of time and experience at that time.

Xu Shi thought for a while and said, "Of course we welcome you to participate, Thomson, your acting skills are impeccable." ”

Xu Shixian complimented, but it was not a boast.

"But there are some things I need to make clear first, this time there is actually only one protagonist in the movie, that is me, and the rest are all supporting roles.

In many ways, including the character setting, it is far less brilliant than the protagonist, so to speak, all the supporting characters in this movie are in the service of the protagonist. ”

Xu Shi did not hide Thomson, and these things will be announced when the time comes, and basically people like Thomson will know.

Thomson was also a little silent when he heard Xu Shi's words, if this was the case, he needed to think about it carefully.

The importance of a good role for an actor goes without saying.

Thomson doesn't really care about the number of scenes, as long as it's not a cameo, but the role must have a certain charm.

This is the foundation of an actor to make the audience remember.

If all the characters are serving the protagonist, then after the movie is over, it is conceivable that the audience will only remember the protagonist, and the other characters will be relatively much worse.

This is something that Thomson can't accept, but in the face of such a big market in Huaxia, he is a little reluctant.

Thomson didn't know if he would regret missing this opportunity.

He has seen all of Xu Shi's movies, they are all very exciting, and there are other outstanding characters in them, but this time Xu Shi said that he only served the protagonist, and he couldn't make a decision for a while.

Xu Shi didn't urge, anyway, this matter was not in a hurry, so let's choose slowly.

William also told Thomson about some things in the script, and in the end, Thomson didn't know what decision he made, anyway, he didn't tell Xu Shi about his own decision today.
