Friday, 27 July 2004.

Nine p.m. ET.

New York.

James Frank dragged his tired body back home, opened the door and went in, and actually heard the sound of a TV in the room - his first reaction was startled, and he subconsciously wanted to touch something in his hand that could fight, and his second reaction was to call the police!

But he immediately came to his senses - he put down his briefcase and looked inside, and sure enough, it was his own pair of children.

The eldest daughter, Lily, is fifteen years old, and the youngest son, John, is thirteen.

Come to think of it again, yes, it's Friday again.

He put down his briefcase and walked into the living room, "Hey, kids, sorry, got off work late, did you have dinner?"

The two of them were watching a TV show intently, and Lily turned around when she heard this, and said, "Hello Dad, Mommy sent us here after dinner." ”

James shrugged and smiled, unable to hide his embarrassment.

He walked over and kissed his daughter on the side of the cheek, and when he saw that his son didn't even look back, he was still watching TV intently, so he went over and kissed him on the top of his head, and then asked Lily, "Is your mother okay?"

Lily had already turned back to watch TV, and she just let out a "hmm" when she heard the words.

James spread his hands.

He felt that he should get himself some food, but at this moment, the double exhaustion of body and mind made him really have no heart to get anything more.

Looking at the two children, he was standing behind the sofa, and he suddenly sighed, "Hey, Lily, Hani, can you stand up and let Daddy see how tall you are?"

Lily looked at her dad in surprise, stood up for a moment, then sat down again, and said while looking back at the TV again, "What's wrong Dad?"

James spread his hands, a little surprised by his daughter's height, and patted his son on the shoulder, "Hey, John, man, come on, stand up, and show Daddy how tall you are." ”

John didn't seem to be as good at talking as his sister, and with a reluctant look, he barely stood up, slumped, and said, "Please, we come every week, don't you know how tall we are?"

James sighed and muttered, "yes, Daddy didn't even know you were that tall." ”

Turning his head to look at his daughter again, he said, "Your mother has raised you so well." She's a good mom. ”

After thinking about it, he slapped his hands and tried to draw the attention of a pair of children away from the TV, saying, "Hey, hey, kids, I have a proposal, how about we go out for a bite to eat? Daddy invites you to eat, eat what you want to eat the most, okay?"

"Oh, don't!"

"Oh my God, Daddy!"

Both children reacted a bit big.

But they all looked very interested and helpless.

Lily said, "But now it's nine o'clock in the night, Dad, I'm going to get fat when I eat, I'm going to lose weight!

John said, "The focus is on watching the show! Is it okay tomorrow Dad?"

James shrugged and spread his hands, "Sure! uh, of course!"

"Thank you, Dad!"

"Thank you, Dad!"

The two little ones turned around and continued to stare at the TV screen.

Eventually, James began to notice the TV show that was playing on the TV.

Usually when two children are dropped off every Friday afternoon or evening, they tend to prefer to run to the computer – the two of them usually agree to play for an hour.

And the TV ...... It seems that American children don't like to watch TV as much now.

Unless there's a show they're particularly interested in.

In particular, there seems to be very little show now that allows two children to watch together peacefully.

James thought for a moment, walked around, sat down in the middle of the couch, his daughter on his left, his son on his right, and he asked, "Hey, what are you looking at, can you share it with Dad, who is that person?"

Or Lily replied to him, ""Thompson's talk show, that's the guest of this issue, called Zhou, China Zhou." ”

"Wow, Chinese. ”

At this time, John rarely turned his head to look at his father, and solemnly emphasized, "China Zhou is very powerful, he can dodge bullets!"

"Wow!" James was stunned for a moment.

At this time, Lily smiled and said, "Hey, John! How many times have I told you, that's the director's credit, that's the credit of China Qian, he just has a special way to shoot that kind of shot." It's not that Zhou can dodge bullets! However, Zhou knows Chinese kung fu, Dad, he knows Chinese kung fu!"

"Wow!"

James was embarrassed to find that in the face of a pair of children, he seemed to have only this one tone word left to say.

What they say, what they love, he almost doesn't understand.

So he asked, "Did you see the new movie? What movie?"

"The Matrix!" the two men scrambled to reply.

At this time, on the TV screen, the host Thompson didn't know what to say, and the audience burst into laughter again, just as James heard when he first entered the door.

And that China Week, he shrugged his shoulders with a smile.

And James Frank's sons and daughters also laughed.

Lily also said to her brother, "He's so cute, isn't he?"

John nodded and laughed, "yes, yes, he's so cute, but it's also cool! I love his trench coat! it's so cool!"

Lily waved her hand, "Oh my gosh, little boy's fantasy!"

John raised a middle finger at his sister.

James frowned, and subconsciously wanted to reprimand his son for something, wanting to tell him that he should not give the middle finger to others casually, especially not to raise the middle finger at his family and sister.

But Lily herself seemed unimpressed, and smiled and turned her middle finger back.

But in fact, neither of them cared about these details.

When it was already in his throat, James took it back.

"If it were their mother," he thought, "maybe I could say something about them." And ...... yourself"

After a pause, he suddenly thought of something, and asked, "The Matrix, is it a shootout movie? Your mother took you to see it?" God, John, you're only thirteen years old......

John turned his head very dissatisfied, and then Lily suddenly said: "Hey, Dad, PG-13 level, John can watch it, in fact, there is no swear in the movie, there is no nudity, and there is no bloody scene, OK? ”

James shrugged.

“OK！OK！”

On the talk show, the China Week responded to the host's Thompson's pressing questions and quickly answered, but he spoke Chinese, and beside him, sat a beautiful lady who was constantly responsible for translating his words into English — James listened to a conversation between them and was not very interested.

It seems that there is indeed a question of a movie.

Turning his head to look at his daughter, and then at his son, the abruptness in his heart became more and more fierce.

I don't know anything about what my children are interested in and like, and I can't tell them about some of my troubles—those things are even bothering to me.

Suddenly, he felt so lonely.

The sound of laughter sounded from time to time, and the children sitting next to them also laughed, as if it was a particularly interesting thing, but they didn't understand what they were laughing at.

He suddenly felt a little pathetic.

He had felt lonely more than once since divorcing their mother, but for the first time, he felt a little pathetic.

Melancholy, melancholy, he sighed silently in his heart, or decided to go to the kitchen to find himself something to eat, but before he could get up, the TV suddenly became lively, and his children also looked at each other in surprise, and said in unison: "Wow!"

James' attention was drawn all at once, "Hey, hey, kids, what's wrong?"

John's face flushed with excitement, and his eyes lit up scarily, "Hey, Dad, China is going to fight the boxing champion in the week!"

“hat？”

Americans love to watch boxing matches and are known all over the world. In response to this need, the United States has a myriad of public and underground boxing matches of all sizes.

James doesn't like boxing matches, but he has seen some of them, especially when his male colleagues often chat during work, so he has a certain understanding of some underground boxing matches in the United States and even in New York City.

So he knows that although the word boxing champion is actually not worth much in the United States, there are all kinds of competitions, and there are all kinds of boxing champions. But even the boxing champions of underground competitions, or the boxing champions of some small competitions, are not dry food, they all have powerful attack power!

A movie actor who wants to fight a boxing champion?

hat-the-F！

Is this going crazy?

On the TV screen, the Chinese Zhou, who looked a little thin after standing up, spread his hands and said something in Chinese, and when he finished a few words, the beautiful translator next to him said loudly: "The essence of Chinese kung fu lies in quick strikes and attacks on vital points." Chinese Kung Fu does not advocate absolute strength, but emphasizes the victory of thousands of armies with skill. So, I don't care about the other party's boxing level. ”

"Wow!"

This time, not only the three members of Frank's family, but also hundreds of viewers at the scene, including the host Thompson, all screamed in surprise.

James Frank subconsciously said, "Does he want to fight the heavyweight champion?"

He looked at the emaciated-looking Oriental figure of China Zhou on the TV screen, and closed his mouth in surprise.

American boxing, of course, can also be said to be the world's boxing sport, for the weight of the body, there is a strict classification - boxing itself is a sport that attaches great importance to strength, and the weight difference is too large, which will lead to a huge difference in the weight of the muscles on the boxer's body, which will lead to a huge difference in strength. Therefore, the strength of the heavyweight champion and the lightweight champion can basically be understood as not on the same level.

Or it can be said that the more formal the boxing match, the more we believe in the Chinese saying, which is called "one force will drop a hundred meetings"! On the contrary, in some underground boxing matches, those who fight in the jungle are the real heroes who judge victory or defeat, and many times they can ignore the weight class of the fighters.

Of course, any game, as long as it is competitive, there is no such thing as not valuing dexterity, but that's another topic - at least in the eyes of the American public, as well as quite a lot of boxing fans, China Zhou actually dared to release such words, it doesn't matter about the opponent's weight class, this is definitely not afraid of death at that level of bragging!

However, at the scene, when China Week's words were finished, the host Thompson actually invited someone on the spot - coincidentally, James actually knew this person.

This is the final overall champion of a boxing event in the United States last year – a well-deserved boxing champion!

Of course, although James doesn't know a lot about boxing, he still knows that the title of boxing champion should be somewhat watery, because that event is not a top-level boxing match.

And he just happened to watch a few of his fights last year and witnessed his title - it is conceivable that if it is a heavyweight top boxing champion, it will not be so easy to be called by such a show, and he has to compete with others on the spot. The champion of the top tournament will not take such a risk.

However, a boxing champion is a boxing champion.

Hawke Aaron.

Just look at the big guy he walked out of the backstage, when he stood in front of the host Thompson and China Zhou, he was a huge figure that was a head taller than them, and anyone would subconsciously feel that China Zhou probably couldn't even stand the other party's punch!

As long as it is a punch, it will definitely make China Zhou unable to get up!

But at this time, the TV picture cut to China Zhou, but saw that he was not panicked, and he didn't mean to be scared at all, but looked the boxing king Ah Long up and down with a smile.

As a boxing champion, although Ah Long is not the kind of top competition, but after all, he is a boxing champion, even at the scene, he has more than a dozen fans, and when he sees him appear, he responds with warm applause.

In the TV screen, the host Thompson introduced the origin of Hawke Aaron to the audience, which attracted bursts of applause and exclamations, outside the TV screen, James finally found an entry point to communicate with his own children, loudly described to his children how he felt when he watched Aaron's boxing match last year, and described to them the fierceness of the boxing champion, and the sisters and brothers Lily and John also exclaimed!

At this time, the host also specially introduced, saying that the boxing king Ah Long was specially invited by the show, he was very fond of unlimited fighting, and he was usually interested in Chinese kung fu, this time I heard that a Chinese kung fu master came over, so as soon as the show was invited, he agreed.

And when the host repeatedly asked China Zhou, he smiled a little shyly, but repeatedly said something in Chinese, and his translator translated his words, that is: "No problem." I'm fine! Let's have a friendly exchange, I'll try to shoot lightly. ”

At the scene of the show, all kinds of strange screams.

The couch has been moved away and the stage is empty.

Thompson shrugged, then stepped away,
