Chapter 780: Windfall

The filming of the crew continued, but Zhang Chu took a photo with Li Yu and Sula on the set and left.

Staying here, Matcha has always had the feeling of fried hair, and it seems to smell the smell of tiger after realizing it.

Originally, he wanted to see Sura's next performance, but the little guy was restless, so he gave up.

Located next to Universal Studios, the Hilton Hotel looks like a class of its own, and many tourists choose to live here, making it easy to go anywhere.

Frank turned to leave after putting Zhang Chu in the elevator, and his main job was to be a bodyguard for producer David Nett.

The suitcase was placed on the floor without being opened, and Matcha curiously jumped around the spacious room, while Zhang Chu leaned back on the sofa.

He connected his mobile phone to the wireless, and then sent a > to his parents, "You stinky boy, let you get off the plane and settle down and send us a message, but I stared at the phone with your mother at home for more than three hours!"

Zhang Bowen's voice message was full of anger, and he thought that his son had encountered some problems when he passed through customs.

Obviously, it's not the first time to come out to play, but Zhang Chu is still treated as a child.

Every flight of the plane was ordered to be handed over so that they could keep track of their movements.

Seeing this, Zhang Chu hurriedly explained: "I went to the crew of "Youth School" as soon as I got off the plane, but I forgot about it. Dad, don't you like "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" directed by Li Yu? I'll buy you a CD another day and get the director to sign it. ”

"Since you have bribed your father, how are you going to bribe me?" Chu Lan said through gritted teeth.

"Eh, find a girlfriend to bring back?" Zhang Chu said jokingly.

"Your mom hasn't started urging you to get married yet. But you can really start looking for a girlfriend at your age, and there are a lot of girls when you're studying, otherwise where will you find it after graduation!"

Chu Lan didn't forget this incident, "I told you, don't go to a foreign country alone." You have to at least find a partner, I heard that the United States and foreign countries are very chaotic, you pay attention to safety, and your wealth is not exposed. ”

After surviving the tragedy, Zhang Chu hurriedly agreed: "Definitely, I cherish my little life." Mom, what luxury are you going to buy? I'll bring it back to Los Angeles. ”

"What luxury goods I buy as a teacher and bring them to school have a bad impact. Since it's okay, you can have fun, I need to sleep, I haven't slept all night. ”

Due to the time difference, it is now more than four o'clock in the afternoon on Zhang Chu's side, so it is still late at night on Jiangcheng's side.

But his parents were worried about him, and now they are willing to go to sleep after hearing the news that he is safe.

After ending the conversation, Zhang Chu posted the photos he had just taken on the Internet, but he didn't know that this surprised the entertainment media!

Youth Pi didn't choose any stars, the actors in the early stage were all Indian, and in the middle and late stages, they were all drifting alone on the sea, and they didn't meet anyone at all.

For the sake of the publicity effect of the show, the actor of the Youth School has never shown the true face of Lushan, but he was inadvertently exposed by Zhang Chu!

"It looks pretty close to the inside, an Indian guy. I hope there won't be a sudden awkward dance in the movie. ”

"Uncle Eucalyptus! Zhang Chuda has really been flying up lately. A few days ago, I was sharing the ice and snow forest and the aurora, and today I came to visit the class of boys. ”

"To be honest, I don't really like watching movies played by foreigners, and I think it's good to play. Zhang Chu is obviously a Chinese writer, and he is always writing foreign works, which is really annoying!"

"The male god is in the same frame!"

"Zhang Chuda, when will your New Yorker be listed?"

"The juvenile crew is quite reliable. ”

"What the hell is the background behind you, is it filming in the pool?"

With the awakening of people in the morning, Zhang Chu's Weibo was seen by more and more people, and Sula also received media attention.

[Zhang Chu's detective class "Youth Pi", the actor turned out to be him!]

[The actor of "Life of Pi" was exposed, and netizens said that it fits perfectly!]

[Zhang Chu visited the United States to explore the youth school and took selfies with the director and starring. 】

[The boy is an amateur, the boy's name is Sula, and he was selected by Li Yu from thousands of amateurs!]

[There are no stars, and the juvenile crew seems to be particularly shabby!]

In this movie, the actor's salary can be said to be very small, and the total salary is not as high as that of Zhang Chu, the screenwriter, or Li Yu, the director.

More than $100 million in cost has been spent on film shooting and visual effects, and such an investment can be regarded as a knife edge!

If it is divided by a few big stars, where will there be money to do special effects?

……

Time passed little by little, and Zhang Chu took matcha to eat a dinner delivered by the hotel and then went to sleep.

Los Angeles at night is indeed full of lights, and there are indeed many allure places, but there is also evil breeding.

People who go out alone are prone to some troubles, so staying home is the most important choice!

When I woke up, my whole spirit was restored a lot.

Zhang Chu opened the curtains and opened the scenery with different styles outside in a daze, tonight is the ceremony of the Golden Globe Awards, and he is also going to play soy sauce.

The Golden Globe Awards have always been divided into film and TV series awards, but TV series awards have always been unpopular, and miniseries are even more unpopular.

In fact, whether or not to win the award is secondary, he just wants to experience this feeling, and wants to see what the legendary Golden Globe Awards ceremony is like!

It's a pity that "Sherlock" is not eligible to be nominated for the Oscar, otherwise he would definitely want to go to the Oscar, which is the highest honor hall in the film industry.

There is no chance this year, but not next year.

Next year's movies all have a certain ability to rush to the Olympics, maybe they can really make up for this year's regrets!

First of all, this "Life of Pi" is competitive in terms of Best Picture, Best Director, Best Visual Effects, and adapted script, sound, and editing.

As for "The Da Vinci Code", it is purely a commercial blockbuster, and there are no visual effects, depending on whether the quality of the film is good or not, maybe it can be mixed with a simple nomination.

However, "Farewell My Concubine" has the opportunity to represent China to compete for next year's Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film, and it has such strength!

It's also time for the new issue of The New Yorker, with new magazines in bookstores, newsstands, and post offices across the country.

Shen Yunhua was so excited that he didn't sleep all night yesterday, and came out of the school dormitory early this morning.

I didn't care about breakfast, so I went straight to the bookstore at the exit of the subway station outside the school.

Although there is a bookstore on campus, every issue of magazines or periodicals is a day or two in the evening, and there are almost no newspapers.

"Give me a new copy of The New Yorker, thank you. ”

After he handed over the money, he couldn't wait to take it and search the catalog.

The Mexican-born boss asked curiously, "What are you looking for?"

"I translated one, it's called "AI"!" Shen Yunhua pointed to the catalog and was very excited!

This is the famous "New Yorker", even if he hugs his thigh, but it is an extremely remarkable achievement.

The boss looked surprised, stretched out his hand and said, "Congratulations, this is something to celebrate." ”

"Thank you. ”

Shen Yunhua took the magazine and read it while walking, there were all kinds of things in this magazine.

Poetry, science, dance, books, history, and other topics, the New Yorker is now preferred primarily by its blend of literary tradition and reporting on news events.

Their coverage is noticeably different from other newspapers or weekly magazines, and is a little more in-depth.

At the same time, magazines and magazines should be mixed, and readers can taste many different things in this magazine.

Running high-quality publications is time-consuming, laborious, and expensive, and The New Yorker now has a circulation of millions of copies outside of New York, which is indeed very influential.

After Shen Yunhua flipped to the corresponding number of pages according to the table of contents, he finally saw his name at the end of "Artificial Intelligence".

His name was the first time he had appeared in such a large magazine, and now he would love to take it back and frame it and hang it on the wall as a souvenir!

……

Catherine was a true New Yorker, but she didn't like to read The New Yorker very much.

Because the content of magazines seems a little far away from her life, her favorite thing is to read Vogue or magazines like Vanity Fair and The Hollywood Reporter.

Even if the various fashion products above can't be bought at all, even if the scandals of those celebrities are out of reach, they look very happy.

Today, on the way to work at the company, she bought a copy of "The New Yorker" for the first time and held it in her hand, leaning against the door of the crowded subway and reading.

She is one of the few female readers of Zhang Chu abroad, from "Sherlock", "Life of Pi" to "The Da Vinci Code".

Catherine feels that her hobby is indeed quite unique, obviously she doesn't like this type of work, but she has a soft spot for Zhang Chu!

This time, she had heard about the work "Artificial Intelligence" for a long time, but she had never been able to understand Chinese.

However, there are still many people who have translated various evaluations and whetted their appetite!

After waiting for so long, Catherine finally bought the magazine, just to see Zhang Chu's works.

Fortunately, it didn't disappoint her, and the experience of the little robot David made her almost cry on the subway!

Since it was adopted, it is responsible for it.

The whole story is particularly rational and dark when it is sad and moving, and this should really happen one day in the future.

But robot children will not change, when people get older and older, can their hearts for robot children still be the same?

It gives her a lot to think about.

"It's worth the wait for me for so long!"

……

The New Yorker's operations department began tracking data and reviews when the new issue of the magazine went public.

It's just that this time the data is particularly weird!

When did The New Yorker sell so well on Apple's ibook and Amazon's Kindle e-book stores?

On a typical week, both places have less than 200,000 paid downloads.

But in half a day today, there were almost 300,000 downloads, and the countries and accounts of the downloads were very evenly distributed!

"Someone can't be swiping sales, right? What's worth faking about that?"

A staff member looked at the stats in front of him in a daze, and the influence of The New Yorker was usually only high in the United States, especially in the cities and regions of the East Coast.

This time, however, the distribution of e-book downloads was exceptionally even, with the East Coast not much different from the West Coast, and even users in countries such as Canada, the United Kingdom, and Australia downloading them.

Even in the Far East there are terrible statistics!

The New Yorker has never made a splash into China, but this time the English-language version of the magazine had more than 30,000 paid downloads.

That's almost more than the number of e-book downloads it received on Amazon's China side last year!

It's unbelievable that his article actually made it to the Twitter real-time topic list, although it was only the fifth. ”

The employees had no idea that Mr. Zhang's influence would be so great that Chinese readers would be willing to pay for the English version.

It's pointless!

If Zhang Chu only has China, his own fans, it is okay, and the rest of the world has basically exploded.

Those who don't know still think that there is some exciting news published in this issue of The New Yorker, but when you open it, it is obviously no different from the past.

They thought they had provided Zhang Chu with a platform to promote.

Unexpectedly, it was Zhang Chu who helped them promote the magazine around the world!

Even if these 300,000 people are not worth mentioning compared to the billions of people, they are definitely an excellent start.

In addition, the magazine has only been published for less than 24 hours, and it is very difficult for the world to have this number due to the influence of time difference and consumption habits.

Time magazine doesn't usually have this circulation!

Definitely a bonus.

Not only has the sales of the electronic version exploded, but the sales of physical magazines are also particularly strange.

There are many Chinese or international students who buy ten books and ten books directly, which can stun Uncle Sam in the United States.

I've seen hoarding cosmetics, daily necessities, health products, and luxury goods, but I've never seen hoarding physical magazines!

What's the use of buying so many magazines back?

The purchasing agents said that it was very useful!

Zhang Chu has a lot of fans in China, and this is the first time that Zhang Chu has appeared in the world's top magazine like The New Yorker, which is of considerable commemorative significance.

It is not easy to order an American magazine in China, so finding a purchasing agent is the best way.

Therefore, those purchasing agents in the United States have to open new varieties of purchasing agents, and it is convenient to buy these magazines and send them back, and they can make a small profit.

Europeans and Australians don't have such thoughts, and netizens in these places are just buying on eBay, creating business opportunities for Americans to make money!

*************************

In the past two days, the author has been thinking about the plot behind, because he has written almost 1.8 million words now, and many things have already been written before, and he doesn't want to keep circulating.

Now I have barely sorted out the content outline of the next dozens of chapters, and the mountain of Kavin has finally been turned over!
