Chapter 181: A Chance Encounter in New York
ABC's Who Can Become a Millionaire has been on the air for some time, setting off a ratings frenzy in the United States and Canada.
If it weren't for Fox getting the copyright of an American idol from Zhang Fan's hands and rising strongly, then it would be ABC TV's program that dominates the American TV industry at this time.
As far as Zhang Fan knows, since the show was broadcast in the United States, there has not been a single player who can completely clear the customs. This instantly gave Zhang Fan a new idea.
If you participate in this show and pass the customs smoothly, the effect in the United States will definitely be sensational!
In the whole of Asia, almost everywhere except for the Chinese-speaking world is the sphere of influence of the Americans. Everything about Americans influences these places, and naturally includes American culture.
Japan and South Korea, the strongest countries in East Asia, apart from China, are all younger brothers of the United States, and they are deeply influenced by the United States. People who can succeed in the U.S. are world superstars in their hearts!
If Zhang Fan wants to capture these places, the most convenient passage is in the United States.
As long as Zhang Fan can succeed in the United States, then when he returns to Asia, he will inevitably have unprecedented terrifying popularity in Japan, South Korea and other places. This is the foundation of his confidence to compete with Takuya Kimura, the king of Japanese dramas, in TV dramas in Japan.
Otherwise, just by virtue of the drama Naoki Hanzawa, Zhang Fan did not have the inevitable certainty of defeating Takuya Kimura. After all, it was Takuya Kimura, and it was on the battlefield of Japan!
And it is not easy to become famous quickly in the United States, but fortunately, Zhang Fan has the help of ABC TV and Fox TV. The situation that had been laid out before had finally come into play.
Both of them are some of the largest media outlets in the United States, with their help, and they also have the two super popular shows American Idol and Who Can Become a Millionaire as a platform. Two months is enough time for Zhang Fan to take off.
The strong dragon does not suppress the earth-headed snake, but if this dragon is strong enough to a certain extent, it is enough to suppress any earth-headed snake!
Li Ruhui quickly replied that there was no seat on today's flight, so she could only buy it tomorrow.
One day earlier and one day later, Zhang Fan didn't care. And this is New York, so a day here is like a vacation.
After booking the plane ticket and the hotel, Zhang Fan changed into a relaxed and casual decoration, bought a camera in the store and went out shopping as a tourist.
The first stop is the Statue of Liberty, which is considered the most famous attraction in New York. Since you've come to New York, it's impossible not to come and see it.
After taking a boat to the island, which New Yorkers consider a symbol, taking photos in front of the Statue of Liberty and touring around, Zhang Fan left for the Empire State Building.
The other name of New York State is the Empire State, and the status of the Empire State Building in the minds of New Yorkers can be imagined. It is crowded with tourists all year round, and tourists from all over the world come in an endless stream.
The weather was good today, and Zhang Fan went all the way up to the top floor to watch the entire scenery of New York with a high-powered telescope. I also had a meal in the restaurant at noon.
In the afternoon, Zhang Fan left the Empire State Building to wander around the famous Central Park. To have such a large park in the middle of this steel jungle is something that all of New York will benefit from.
Coming out of Central Park, Zhang Fan, who felt refreshed, went to Fifth Avenue to buy some souvenirs for himself.
However, after coming to Fifth Avenue, Zhang Fan unexpectedly met a friend who was not a friend.
When Zhang Fan walked out of the Armani store with a few shopping bags, he accidentally saw someone taking street photos on the opposite side of the street not far away.
Street photography is nothing, and street photography is even more common in places like New York. After all, it is the largest metropolis in the world, and countless celebrities from all over the world have left their footprints here.
To Zhang Fan's surprise, the street photos were Asian faces.
In New York, the eyes are full of high noses and deep eyes, or a foreign land like black coal. Zhang Fan was very happy to see Asian faces.
Zhang Fan walked over there with the bag and wanted to join in the fun.
It's just that when he saw the slender figure that was taking pictures on the street, he suddenly stopped.
Zhang Fan recognized that the figure was Jessica, who had been to the top of Taiping Peak together because of an accident when he was in Xiangjiang before!
I really didn't expect to see you here again.
Jessica, who was posing for street photography, obviously saw Zhang Fan not far away, and her originally relaxed and natural expression instantly cooled down.
The night at the top of Victoria Peak left a deep impression on her. The man was like a madman who frantically vented his hopes for mercy, ignoring their pleas for mercy until it was getting dark.
At first, Jessica, who was furious, did think about calling the police. It's just that their identities are destined not to publicize this matter. Because once this matter is publicized, it is tantamount to a death sentence for his own cause.
Also, in this day and age, it's all too common to drink together in a bar and then go out and exercise together. If Zhang Fan spends money to find a well-known lawyer to bite to death and say that he is willing to do it, the ghost knows what the final result will be.
In this way, after Zhang Fan expressed his repentance and said that he would give compensation. The distraught two could only leave in a hurry. There's really no way to say this kind of thing!
What I didn't expect was that this time I would meet Zhang Fan again in New York, half a world away!
"What's wrong?" looked at her sister, who was shooting with Jessica on the street, suspiciously.
"It's fine. Jessica, who looked nervous and looked like something was wrong, hurriedly turned her head and continued her work. It's just that the heart that has been messed up is so easy to calm down. The working condition has also dropped significantly compared to before.
When it gets late, today's work is finally over.
It's just that the things that have kept Jessica worried have come. Zhang Fan, who had been watching from the periphery before, walked over after seeing the end of the work!
Jessica, who was in a panic, hurriedly turned around and wanted to go to the car, but was directly stopped by Zhang Fan.
"If you have time, let's meet in the evening and have a chat. There are important things to tell you. Zhang Fan whispered the room number of the hotel he was staying in, then glanced at the staff who hurried over, and turned to leave.
Looking at Zhang Fan's departing back, Jessica's body trembled uncontrollably.
"Sister, where are you going?" In the evening, after all the staff left, Zheng Xiujing, who was doing skin care in the room, looked at her sister in confusion and looked like she was getting dressed and ready to go out.
Jessica, who looked down, put on her sunglasses and walked towards the door, "Go out and walk, don't talk nonsense." ”
"Oh. Looking at the back of her sister leaving, Zheng Xiujing frowned. It's so late, where is this going?
"Please come in. Zhang Fan, who had just taken a shower, opened the door and saw Jessica standing at the door with a frosty face. Smiled sideways and invited her in.
looked at Zhang Fan, whose hair was wet and only had a bath towel around his body. Jessica's heart tightened. She didn't want to enter the room, but if she stood in the doorway, she had a better chance of being discovered. After hesitating for a moment, he bit the corner of his mouth and walked in.
"Do you want a drink?" Zhang Fan greeted casually and walked towards the refrigerator.
"What the hell do you want to do?!" Jessica, who couldn't take it anymore, finally burst out.
She had just treated what had happened in Xiangjiang as a nightmare and left it over, but she didn't expect Zhang Fan to be entangled again! Could it be that he wanted to use this matter to blackmail himself? Thinking of this, Jessica's heart trembled. This is what women fear the most.
"Huh?" Zhang Fan scratched his hair in some surprise, he didn't expect this woman's reaction to be so intense. Between the changes in her mind, she has roughly understood her thoughts.
Zhang Fan sat on the sofa with a smile and stretched out his hand to invite the woman to sit down in front of him.
Jessica didn't pay attention to it, just glared at Zhang Fan with a pair of cold eyes. She didn't have the slightest idea of wanting to be alone with Zhang Fan at this time.
"This was just a chance encounter. Zhang Fan explained aloud, "I came to New York this time for work, and I walked around the street after I was busy with work, but I didn't expect to meet you." By the way, what are you doing here?"
Jessica frowned, and after hesitating for a moment, she still spoke, "The company arranged for me and Xiujing to come here to shoot variety shows, the daily life of the sisters." ”
After a pause, Jessica spoke directly, "What are you asking me to do here?"
Zhang Fan looked at the woman in front of him with a guarded face but a delicate face, and couldn't help laughing. The smile was a little strange, "I was wrong last time, but I said I would make amends to you." This time I happened to meet here, so I don't have to go to you again. ”
"I don't need compensation. I just hope you never show up in front of me!" Jessica said coldly, turning around and preparing to leave.
"There is an old saying in Huaxia, a husband and wife are a hundred days in one night, I don't know if you have heard of it?" Jessica, who was stimulated by Zhang Fan's words, suddenly turned around and roared at Zhang Fan.
"Who's married to you!?"
Zhang Fan smiled and waved his hand: "Anyway, there was once a fate." By the way, do you know American Idol?"
Jessica, who was about to get angry at Zhang Fan, was a little stunned by this sudden change of topic: "American idol?"
She certainly knows that this show, which has recently taken the entire North American continent by storm. The American icon, whose highest viewership exceeds 30 million, is a miracle that has recently ruled the entire American television industry with who can become a millionaire.
As an American, she is naturally very aware of the popularity of this show. It's just, what is Zhang Fan doing about this?
"Looks like I know. Zhang Fan smiled, "I am preparing to participate in the finals of American Idol recently, and the songs I prepare have a female part. It's just right for you to sing. Isn't it a blessing to be able to participate in the finals of this kind of show?"
"Heh~~~" Jessica's thin little face showed a look of disdain, "You think this show is run by your family? You can participate if you want? Learn more about the situation before lying and deceiving women!"
That's right. Zhang Fan nodded seriously, "It's really my family." ”
"Huh?!"
