?g??? Jt?? #???|t?2x???? 3??]?????? EX3???!?? X??? At the time, Li Fanyu took the cargo plane of the transportation company directly to Colorado Pulis. The comfort of a freighter www.biquge.info is very different from that of a passenger plane, sitting in a cabin full of cargo, feeling the skills of the retired Air Force pilot who is suspected of drunk driving, he almost didn't vomit the dinner he ate last night.

It was easy to get there, and it took more than four hours to change trucks and finally arrive at the abandoned airport near Topgear, the home base of Topgear.

After the first episode of the show hit the air, the three started an intense rush, and for "Topgear" with an hour-long episode and a lot of location parts, the weekly rhythm is definitely not a very rich production time.

So even if the investor of the show, the big boss Li Fanyu came in person, they didn't have time to pick up the plane.

Coincidentally, when Li Fanyu arrived at the base camp, they were filming the venue part of the second episode.

Because of the popularity of the show, the program team received many requests from the audience for guests in the venue. So during the filming of the second episode, more than 300 car enthusiasts from all over the United States gathered at the scene.

After Li Fanyu unloaded the F150 and parked it in a large warehouse that was originally used to park the aircraft, he came to the shooting site.

At this time, the three were having fun on the test site converted from the airport runway.

Director Mihir had seen Li Fanyu before, and when he saw the big boss coming, he wanted to get up to greet him. Seeing him get up, Li Fanyu hurriedly waved his hand and signaled to continue the next shooting work.

The first episode of the show was a hit, which made many people associated with the show very excited. Among them, there is also Jones, the old rich man who provided the venue for the show.

At this time, the old guy was mingling in the audience, and when he turned around and saw Li Fanyu coming, he smiled and greeted him when he was far away.

"Hey, look who's coming!"

Although the venue was borrowed for free because the old Jones felt that he had taken advantage of it, in order to repay the favor. But coming and going is friendship, and seeing Jones at the scene, Li Fanyu hurriedly greeted him. Accepted his bear hug.

Seeing this person at the scene, Li Fanyu was very surprised: "Jones, why do you have so much time?"

"Haha, have you forgotten how I introduced myself to you in the first place?" Jones asked with a smile as he patted him on the shoulder.

"Of course, you only have time left except for money. ”

"Haha, I'm afraid that in front of you, I can only claim that I have time in the future, Lee, I heard Stewart talk about the show. After the first episode aired alone, many websites and TV stations came over to negotiate the exclusive rights to the second season, and Stewart had already raised the price to $50 million. It is said that there are other countries that come to talk about the licensing of the show, oh God, it will definitely be a sky-high price again. Friend, your ability to make money simply makes me, an old guy who has been immersed in the business world for decades, ashamed of himself!"

Facing Old Jones's praise, Li Fan smiled and waved his hand. But in my heart I was secretly proud, what is this, just do it......

Even more awesome things have just begun. It's just that before the matter is a foregone conclusion, even if he has a stinky fart in his heart, he won't say it and set up a flag.

After chatting with Jones for a while, he learned that the old guy wasn't just here because of the pain of his idle ass.

The popularity of the program group was too sudden, and before the first episode was broadcast, I was still worried about how to get a car for program evaluation.

Clarkson had been in contact with Jones Sr. before, and learned that this guy was a vehicle collector. So I found him early and borrowed a few luxury limited edition sports cars from him for the show.

The reason why Jones was on the filming site of the second episode this time was that as an old car fan, he learned that the show was popular and came to watch the excitement. Second, he also personally escorted his luxury sports cars.

Jones Sr.'s collection of famous cars is simply obsessed to the point. As long as he is interested, even if he can buy something on the market, this guy will try his best to get one in his garage.

During the chat, Li Fanyu was surprised to learn that this guy's private collection of expensive sports cars had reached 100.

Even at $500,000 per car, it's a terrifying value.

This behavior is similar to a certain prince that Li Fanyu had heard of before. Totoer's collecting fetish......

Take the three cars on the set as an example, one is the Alfa Romeo 5gt that best represents Italy, the other is the Mercury IU100 with the most American muscle car DNA, and the other is the old British sports car brand RF5118 that focuses on luxury and quality.

These three cars, without exception, are all supercars of great value, and they are limited editions.

You just say that this old guy can spend a lot of money.

After the straight-line acceleration, extreme obstacles and drift racing, the three had enough waves in the venue before they ran to the director to see the shooting effect.

After seeing it, he found out that Li Fanyu was there, so he quickly announced that he would stop work and rest, and came over to exchange opinions on the show with his boss.

What can Li Fanyu say?

These three works of changing the law, judging from the first episode, have made the show to the level of his memory "topgear". In the case of abundant funds and relative freedom, there is a faint trend of transcendence.

So he only gave him a few words of encouragement, and then turned the conversation on track - that is, he wanted to use the show to promote the F150.

As for his desire to use the show to advertise, Clarkson and his friends have no opinions. You must know that for all variety shows, advertising profit is an indispensable means.

What's more, Li Fanyu is the boss of this show, and he uses his own show to promote his car, is there anything wrong with that?

Nope!

However, Clarkson has his own persistence after all, and after hearing Li Fanyu's speech, he gave him a preventive shot: "Boss, you also know that this show can attract the interest of audiences who really like cars, because of our objectivity and fairness." So... Even if you build a car, if there is anything unsatisfactory, I will not show mercy. ”

Seeing this thing's serious face, Li Fan couldn't help but want to laugh.

This is one of the reasons why he admires Clarkson;

"Absolutely, but first you have to know about the F150. ”

Li Fanyu took a few people outside the warehouse, and when he lifted the canvas covered by the F150, he obviously saw the slightest disapproval in the eyes of the three.

The appearance of the F150, to be honest, is exactly what it looks like.

Big, rough, square.

Judging from these elements, the F150 belongs to the kind of authentic American pickup. For the three of them, the native British, there is obviously not much appeal.

"Boss, how do you want us to promote this car on the show... This working people's car?"

The corners of Li Fanyu's mouth twitched twice......

James May was right... Since the birth of the pickup, it has been the gospel of the people at the bottom... The United States is keen on pickup trucks, that is, because this kind of wagon is durable, has a wide range of applications, and the price is generally not high.

But this sounds like this... Why is it so awkward!

After thinking about it, he spread his hands and said, "I'll give you the specific data of this car in a while, and I don't need you to brag about anything." And do you think I'm going to have to lower the bar in order to advertise my car?"

Hearing him say this, the three didn't speak...

After a while, Clarkson asked, "Do you have any ideas?"

Li Fanyu thought for a while and said: "I need to let the F150 drag something during the evaluation process to reflect the excellent rear bearing load capacity and towing ability of this pickup truck! From this aspect, to reflect the power and all-round power of this car." ”

"The boss... What do you want to drag?"

Seeing everyone's curiosity, Li Fanyu snapped his fingers, "Can you help me contact a plane to come over?"

Three, Jones: "......
