The North American box office is out, $78 million on the first day!"

"We got the fourth place in North American film history!"

"This record has broken the record of $62.1 million for Avatar!"

"In four hours, the box office results of European countries will also be out!"

“……”

As the good news came one after another, Li Zhifan was very happy, but not on the bright side.

just said: "Tonight's celebration banquet, no one is missing!"

"Oh yes!"

"Hahaha!"

"Great, we're not going home!"

These American employees think about Patty, cocktail parties, and dance parties every day, and they are very happy when they hear that Li Zhifan is going to hold a celebration banquet tonight.

Of course, they are also very hard at work, no matter what nationality the boss is, as long as they are given perfect treatment, they can work hard.

At this time, it was already one o'clock in the morning, Li Zhifan yawned again and again, couldn't resist it, and chose to go back to sleep directly.

Now that his wife, children, and parents are all in China, he doesn't bother to go back to the empty villa, so he directly chartered a suite for a long time in the hotel opposite the company.

It's not a luxurious presidential suite, it's just a very ordinary level, and the only advantage of staying in a hotel is that you can call your sister-in-law to gesture at any time, and you can order food directly from downstairs.

Entering the hotel, Li Zhifan asked the front desk, "Is there still a supper?"

"Yes, Mr. Lee!"

The front desk immediately recommended him, "Do you want to eat French, American, or Chinese?"

"Let's just eat Chinese!"

Li Zhifan said, "Is there porridge?"

"Yes!"

The front desk said, "Then I'll choose a few for you, how about you take a look?"

As he spoke, the front desk quickly wrote down a few Chinese-style supper and handed them to Li Zhifan.

"Forget about the barbecue!"

Li Zhifan said, "Get me a bottle of Erguotou, and in the wine cabinet in my room, it's time to make up some wine, get more Chinese liquor, I like to drink that." ”

"Okay!"

The front desk immediately made a note and said respectfully, "The waiter will send it to you in a while!"

Li Zhifan nodded, took the key and went back to the room to sleep.

There was nothing in this room except a few changes of clothes.

He is now extremely resistant to working with a computer in the hotel, so he simply doesn't put anything, not even a mobile phone charger, and waits for all official business when he returns to the company the next day.

But even so, he will still have a video chat with his wife and children who are far away in the capital.

In the video, Zhou Ke wore a mask on his face and sat on the rooftop basking in the sun.

"Where's the lunch break, when are you coming back?"

"It's almost over, and I have to go back to participate in the company's listing plan next month, and I will definitely stay for a few more days." ”

"It's Christmas soon, bring some gifts for the kids! Don't forget, if it doesn't work, I'll remind you again!"

"Hey, what kind of Christmas do Chinese have!"

Although Li Zhifan said so, he still agreed, "I'll remember, why don't you ask them to see what they like?"

"Little Cherry likes some beautiful accessories and clothes, Little Potato doesn't ask for anything now, as long as it can attract him!"

"Okay, I probably know!"

Li Zhifan said, there was a knock on the door of the room, so he said, "The one who sent the supper is here, I'll open the door, don't talk!"

"No way!"

Zhou Ke said aggressively, "Turn on the video, I'll see if it's true!"

"Haha! You still don't believe me, gotta show you!"

Li Zhifan put his mobile phone in front of the TV cabinet and talked about the camera facing the door.

The food delivery man outside the door was a young man, who pushed the food cart in, and Li Zhifan let him go.

"Okay!?"

Li Zhifan came back and picked up his phone, "There's nothing suspicious, right?"

However, Zhou Ke tore off the mask and looked at Li Zhifan in horror: "You, you, what's behind you?"

"What?" Li Zhifan was also stunned, his back was creepy, and his hair felt like he was standing up.

When I looked back, I found that there was nothing.

"Cluck! cluck!"

Zhou Ke's laughter came immediately, "Look at you, it's nothing, hahaha!"

"You...... Little villain!"

Li Zhifan regained his face, but he still had palpitations, "Come on, you wait! How will I clean you up after going back to Beijing!"

"Haha, you're back, if you have the ability, you'll come back now!"

"Don't be complacent, I'll have a chance to scare you once!"

"Skip the road, come!

“……”

Just when the two were arguing, a milky voice came from the mobile phone: "Mom, you are too naïve!"

"Huh?"

Zhou Ke's eyes shifted and looked at the little cherry who walked over, "Isn't your father just as naïve?"

"Where's Daddy?"

Xiao Cherry immediately ran over, grabbing her mobile phone to make a video call with Li Zhifan.

Seeing the little cherry appear in the mobile phone, Li Zhifan's heart softened: "Baby, hey, what's wrong?"

"Brother kick me!"

Little Cherry began to complain, "He's sleeping more and more dishonestly!"

"Didn't you sleep separately?"

"No, we slept together during naptime, and he always pestered me!"

"Haha, then you are a sister, you should take care of him!"

Li Zhifan smiled, "Well, wait for Dad to go back, and you will sleep next to Dad in the future, and make sure that no one kicks you!"

"And when will Daddy come back?"

Little Cherry pouted, "Dad, I really want you to send me to kindergarten! Every time my mother or grandparents send me, many children in kindergarten are sent by my father, woo woo, woo woo ......

As she spoke, Little Cherry sobbed, and to the end, she was out of control, crying heartbreakingly.

Li Zhifan looked even more distressed, and when he was ruthless, he gritted his teeth and said, "Don't cry, Dad, I'll book a plane ticket, and I'll go back to see you on the earliest flight!"

"Huh, is it true?"

At this age, Xiao Cherry learned to act, and suddenly stopped crying, and looked at Li Zhifan in surprise, and where were the tears on her face, even Li Zhifan was deceived by her.

"You, haha, okay! really, but you let Dad sleep well and buy a plane ticket back tomorrow!"

Li Zhifan couldn't cry or laugh, but he still knew it with reason and moved with emotion, hoping that there would be a tolerant time for him to prepare to return to China.

And children are easy to coax and deceive, and after tonight, maybe they won't be entangled in this matter.

"Ahh

Little Cherry immediately began to direct Zhou Ke on the other end.

"Haha, okay, but tomorrow Dad will come back, and it's late, so we'll wear new clothes the day after tomorrow, okay?"

"Okay!"

"Then you can go play by yourself for a while! Don't wake up your brother, you can go downstairs to watch cartoons, or go to your room to find your grandparents!"

"Hmm!"

“……”

The conversation over there ended, and Zhou Ke chatted with Li Zhifan again.

At the same time, Li Zhifan couldn't help but start eating supper.

When he saw that he was still drinking liquor, Zhou Ke couldn't help but have a small training, and chatted until three o'clock in the morning, when the mobile phone was completely out of battery, and the video ended.

……

said that he would return to China the next day, not to coax the child.

Li Zhifan really bought a ticket the next day, but it is very likely that it will be late at night when he goes back.

For Li Zhifan, he has a lot of time now, and all the office Internet can be solved, and he doesn't even need to come forward in person.

After that, the work is two projects, one project is the film copyright of "The Lord of the Rings", someone will talk about this, Li Zhifan just needs to wait for the final news.

The second project is the Harry Potter series.

Originally, Li Zhifan planned to release the movie together, but because of the "Lord of the Rings" project, he decided to write it out first, and release it one by one, interspersed with the three movies of "The Lord of the Rings".

"Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" is the first part of the series, and the whole book is only about 220,000 words, which is a very simple book for Li Zhifan.

However, he made one decision - to publish it in English!

Of course, this book is the original English version, it can be said that Li Zhifan is saving trouble by doing this, and the translated version will be more or less different from the original version, even if it is the best translated version, it may not be comparable to the original version.

But the most important thing is that Li Zhifan decided the region where the book will be sold and the market it is aimed at, which is abroad!

Especially in the English-speaking regions of Europe and the United States, it is the main battlefield of "Harry Potter", so writing directly in English can play a greater advantage.

If the Chinese version is released first and released in China, it may not be able to set off any earth-shattering waves as soon as it comes up.

Because the background and characters of "Harry Potter" are Western, and in China, the audience for Western fantasy readers is very small, far less than the foreign market.

Out of various considerations, Li Zhifan made such a decision.

Now, he can also write with a computer when he returns to China, and strive to write the first part as soon as possible and hand it over to the publishing house for distribution.

……

Capital.

When Li Zhifan landed, it was already five o'clock in the morning.

The time has entered December, and the coldness of the weather can be intuitively reflected from people's clothing.

However, in such a cold weather, there was still a group of fans who came to pick up Li Zhifan.

His trip back to China was decided on an ad hoc basis, and there was no announcement from the outside world except for a few people inside the company who knew about it.

It can only be said that these fans are too strong to be able to get Li Zhifan's itinerary in such a short time.

"Li Zhifan!"

"We watched the new movie, it's so handsome!"

"Leon!

“……”

There are about 1,000 fans, but this is already a large group, enough to drain the water around the exit of the airport.

Many of the signs they held were posters of "This Killer Is Not Too Cold".

This movie has been released in China, although it is a French fusion Hollywood style movie, but because the male protagonist is Li Zhifan, the heroine An An is of mixed Chinese and German descent, and the background is in New York's Chinatown, you can see shop signs with Chinese characters in many scenes, and even some newspapers and books marked with Chinese characters.

Therefore, in the eyes of domestic audiences, this movie is not detached from them, and even follows the local atmosphere of China.

All the dialogues in the film are dubbed in Chinese, and even Li Zhifan found a professional Mandarin dubbing to do it, not because he couldn't say it, but because he didn't have time at that time, so he could only hand it over to domestic production agencies to produce.

"Thank you, thank you!"

Li Zhifan beckoned to everyone, "It's too cold, you should go home early! It's five o'clock in the morning, thank you for your hard work!"

"It's not hard!"

"We are willing to wait for you!"

"Zhifan! I made soup and food, it's still hot, let's eat some on the way!"

“……”

Li Zhifan usually accepts the food sent by fans, because it is all made by them, and other handmade products will also be accepted, but if it is a high-priced gift, he will directly refuse to accept it.

So now fans come to take the opportunity or visit the class, all with food.

At this moment, Li Zhifan finally squeezed out of the crowd, sat in the car that picked him up, took everyone's food one by one, and the staff took over to help him put it in the trunk of the car.

I opened a box of food casually, and it was actually dumplings inside, and it was still steaming.

Li Zhifan was not ambiguous, he ate directly with chopsticks, and fed the other fans next to him.

"Come on, come on, you guys have some to eat, everyone came to pick me up, didn't you eat?"

"Eat!"

"We only came here after eating!"

"We're going to get together today and come over together, well, we'll get together later!"

“……”

It was Li Zhifan who made these people from all over the world form a group - the fan support club.

It was Li Zhifan who gave these strangers the opportunity to play together, eat and drink together, and chat non-stop around a common topic.

It's Li Zhifan, these fans have goals and motivation.

But as long as they don't act particularly fanatically, Li Zhifan's enthusiasm for them will still be accepted.

"Let's go back and go to bed early!

Li Zhifan said, "Otherwise, if you come to the Oriental Hotel in Wudaokou at noon tomorrow, I will set up a room there, but just everyone! Don't publicize it to the outside world, I will invite everyone to dinner and sing to everyone when the time comes!"

Having said that, Li Zhifan knew that there would definitely be a lot of people coming tomorrow.

Because everyone will not leave such an important news alone, but will share it with other fans.

Li Zhifan may have made this decision a little rashly, just look at the expressions of the staff around him.

But he has already thought of a reasonable solution, that is, the domestic celebration banquet of "This Killer is Not Too Cold" and Li Zhifan's fan meeting.

When he returned to China, he couldn't participate in the celebration party in the United States, but it always had to be held, so he took advantage of this time to start a live broadcast by the way, and share the joy with all the fans and fans.

"Huh! really?"

"Great!"

"What time is tomorrow?"

"Noon?"

"Ahh

"Thank you, Boss, I promise I won't tell anyone!"

The person who said this, as well as the excitement that couldn't control himself, took out his mobile phone and began to promote it in the circle of friends.
