Friday, July 27.

It's ten o'clock in the night EST.

Chicago.

After Zhou Baoshan took a shower, he sat crooked on the sofa in a bathrobe, first made a phone call with his senior brother, listened to him talk about some of the senior brothers who came to join the family, and then briefly talked about the propaganda he participated in in the United States, and some strange things he saw in the United States.

When the phone hung up, he leaned on the sofa, leaning back as if he were sleeping.

It's been four or five days since he came to the United States, but his jet lag hasn't reversed, although he is energetic and he also attaches great importance to this trip to the United States, so he can ensure that he is energetic when he participates in activities or records programs, but this feeling of not falling asleep easily over and over again still makes him very uncomfortable.

It was when he was in a daze, the mobile phone suddenly rang, he subconsciously picked it up and took a look, and when he saw that it was Du Yihua, he quickly woke up all of a sudden - before that, no one expected that the American propaganda tour of "The Matrix" would actually arrange this woman to lead the team.

The gossip rumors within Minghu Culture all say that this woman's origin is very secretive, and before entering the Minghu cultural system, she was good at dancing at the top of the entertainment industry. And the reason why it entered the Minghu culture...... Do you need to talk about the reason? Everyone secretly said behind their backs that the boss belonged to bees.

Of course, Zhou Baoshan has also heard another statement, which is that people outside deliberately said it to stink their own boss - they said that Li Qian is a piece of stinky meat that attracts flies.

In short, no matter what you say, Du Yihua is not a simple woman.

Although the king sees the king and becomes a little Wang, as long as he reaches the Minghu culture, the dragon has to be coiled, and the tiger has to lie on his stomach, in front of Li Qian, no matter how powerful Du Yihua is, he can't get up, but don't care whether she climbs into the boss's bed or not, this woman is not daring to be despised or offended.

Before going abroad, this is also what my senior brother repeatedly advised.

When the phone was answered, Zhou Baoshan said very politely: "Sister Hua is good!"

"Baoshan, I'll give you a call first, and I'll inform your assistants, translators and bodyguards one by one later, just one thing, from now on, do a good job of security protection, if you encounter a siege of reporters, recite the answers you set before, and you can also practice it yourself." When you encounter a question that can be answered, you should give an answer, be kind to the reporters, but when you encounter an inappropriate question, you will pretend not to hear it! Do you understand what I just said?"

"Uh...... Got it. ”

"Remember?"

"Remembered. ”

"Okay, that's ......"

"Hey, hey, Sister Hua...... What's going on?"

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment, and Du Yihua said, "Didn't watch the TV?"

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

After a pause, Du Yihua said: "If you don't read it, forget it, you just remember my words." ”

After a pause, it seemed that she was too lazy to let Zhou Baoshan continue to ask, she explained: "After the show was broadcast just now, our contact numbers in the United States, mine, and Oriental Dream Film Company were immediately blown up. It's all invitations from all kinds of media! Do you know what that means?"

"Uh......" Zhou Baoshan reacted and said, "It means...... I'm going to be red?"

Du Yihua said categorically: "So, this means that after about half an hour, those reporters will find out which hotel in Chicago you are staying in, and within an hour, a large number of reporters will gather at the entrances and exits of the hotel where you are staying! Maybe some bold reporters will sneak directly into the hotel, understand?"

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

"Hmm. Du Yihua said: "Remember what I told you on the plane before I came? If the planning of this event is successful and meets our expectations, you will be tired and tired in the next two weeks!"

Zhou Baoshan was refreshed when he heard this, took a deep breath, but asked cautiously: "So, the show we participated in is ...... Succeeded?"

Du Yihua replied: "Not only did it succeed, 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 wanted him to make a new movie, and Zhou Baoshan was so happy that he almost flew up, because he knew that the entire Minghu culture and the entire film and television circle knew that making Li Qian's film meant that it would be popular! After the release of "The Matrix", seeing the super high box office of this movie in the world, especially when it broke 100 million on the first day in China and 50 million US dollars in two days in the United States, Zhou Baoshan was so happy, he felt that he was really going to become popular now!

Although there is a series of "Huang Feihong", it is said that he will shoot 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 industry, but that feeling is that although he is popular enough, he is not popular enough - as if he can't go up and down!

But this time, "The Matrix" was a big hit, although Li Qian personally said that the box office of 50 million US dollars in the first two days was not too outstanding, but he was still proud, and felt that with "Once Upon a Time" and "The Matrix", he could really stand firm - as a movie actor, it seems that he has begun to have a place and his own foundation.

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

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

There was silence on the other side of the phone for a moment, and Zhong Yuanfu suddenly said, "Good thing! Do you 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 I am more popular, then the more popular I am, the more low-key I must be." ”

Zhong Yuanfu said "um", and said, "What else?"

"And ......" Zhou Baoshan was stunned for a moment, and then remembered, "I know senior brother, now this is a little bit...... I'll call my boss again right away. ”

"Hey...... That's right!" Zhong Yuanfu said, "Don't say too much sycophancy, but the gesture of gratitude must be sufficient, do you understand?"

"Understood!"

"Okay! Next, if you are busy, you don't need to call, wait for you to come back, let's two brothers, senior brother will quietly celebrate your achievements!"

"Good!"

…………

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

The phone was quickly connected, and Li Qian's tone was very indifferent, "Baoshan, what's wrong?"

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

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

"Hey!," Zhou Baoshan said.

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

Li Qian said "um" again and said, "Work hard! In the future, our road will still be long, and if we become popular, we will have to work harder!"

"Hey, yes! I know Brother Qian. ”

When the phone hung up, Zhou Baoshan breathed a sigh of relief and put down the phone, he was in a state of wanting to sleep but couldn't fall asleep just now, and this time he was even more completely energetic.

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

Twenty floors, not too high, but there seems to be no sign on the ground that Du Yihua said that there will be reporters coming over soon-he looked at it for a while, looked for it for a while, and he suddenly smiled!

The reporter will not have a big sign above his head that says "I am a reporter", even if there is a car driving over at this time, he has nowhere to recognize it!

In a big hotel like this, even if it's not the middle of the night, 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 door, the sun was shining on him, and the entrance of the entire hotel was completely blocked by reporters, and the microphones were stretched out one after another as if they were in China before, eager to stuff into their mouths......

Thinking about it, he couldn't help but laugh.

"I'm going to be red! I'm going to be red in the United States!" he thought to himself.

…………

Same day, same moment, New York, USA.

The "Thompson Talk Show" on TV is over.

But the discussion of the James Frank family about the shocking scene of China's Zhou Kui punching and knocking out boxing champion Aaron just now is not over.

Among them, Lily was better, after all, a girl, but James and John, father and son, had a lively discussion—Lily sat on the sidelines, listening to her father and brother discussing passionately there, and suddenly felt that the atmosphere was really good.

At this moment, James Frank was also very happy in his heart:

He is too busy every day, although the mother of the two children at the time of the divorce agreed with him very considerately that from Monday to Friday, the child follows the mother and is taken care of by the mother, but even on Saturday and weekend, he always has all kinds of things entangled, and it is impossible to always take time to accompany the child.

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

Now, finally, there was such an opportunity, and suddenly he found the kind of rapport with his children - they were discussing one thing hotly!

Although Little John jumped and said that he wanted to learn Chinese kung fu, he didn't agree, but indeed, he had to admit that China Zhou was simply handsome!

At this time, the father and son were still discussing hotly, and suddenly, Lily said, "Hey, Dad, how long has it been since you went to the movies?"

James was stunned for a moment when he heard this, not quite understanding what his daughter meant.

Lily smiled and said, "I think it's time for you to go to the movies and relax, aren't you? Like, maybe you can ask your mom to go with you?"

James was stunned for a moment when he heard this, but suddenly, he clearly felt that his heart seemed to beat a little more suddenly—a little heart-pounding.

Invite their mom to the movies?

He hesitated, "Uh, your mom......"

Lily suddenly said, "She hasn't had a new boyfriend, so she ......"

James' eyes lit up suddenly.

Little John was excited, "That's great, Daddy, can I go with me? with you and Mommy, oh, okay?"

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 her head to look at James again, and said with a grin: "However, I don't think Dad will be stingy with giving us a little money so that we can go and watch "The Matrix" again, right, Dad?"

James shrugged, thought for a moment, and said, "Of course...... No problem, but your mom ......."

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

James shrugged, smiled, and said solemnly, "Yes, ma'am!"

…………

Saturday, July 28, 7 a.m.

A large number of dozens of reporters and paparazzi gathered in the lobby of a hotel in Chicago at this time, although at the request of the hotel, they all maintained considerable restraint, only gathered in groups of three or five to whisper and talk about the scene that happened on "Thompson's talk show" last night, but just by looking at the direction of their eyes, you can know that they are ready to go crazy at any time.

The vast majority of reporters and paparazzi, almost every eight seconds and ten seconds, turn their heads to look in the direction of the elevator — everyone is waiting for the appearance of the eastern face.

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

A few minutes later, Zhou Baoshan's room.

Du Yihua checked Zhou Baoshan's dress and image, asked a few more questions, and determined that the answers that were prepared for him at the beginning, he had indeed memorized them to the end, so he nodded and said, "If you are ready, then go out!"

"Go feel it, what is red!"
