Li Jiaxin was only wrapped in a bath towel on her body, her hair was still wet, and she looked like she had just finished taking a shower.

When she heard the doorbell ring just now, she thought it was the lunch she ordered, but when she opened the door, she saw Thomas standing there alone, his mouth slightly open, and he said in surprise: "Mr. Thomas, why are you ......?"

Looking at Li Jiaxin's casual dress, Thomas couldn't guess the relationship between her and Lin Youlun, and he didn't talk nonsense, he explained his intention straight to the point.

"I'm coming to Mr. Lin."

Li Jiaxin's eyes flashed with surprise, and she quickly calmed down.

"You can't be mistaken, Mr. Thomas, this is my room."

The American shook his head very seriously, he didn't have time to go around the bend with Li Jiaxin now, and said directly: "Miss Li, about the problem that this is your room, I don't need you to remind me that I have something very important to find Mr. Lin, can I go in now?" ”

Li Jiaxin saw that Thomas's tone was so firm, and she knew that there was no way to hide it, so after a little hesitation, she let go of the way.

Thomas nodded and thanked her before stepping into the room.

There was still a shallow mark on the sofa in the living room of the suite, and a pair of trousers and a dress and a long skirt were scattered next to it.

Li Jiaxin followed, picked up the clothes on the floor very embarrassed, threw them on the sofa to cover the "scene of the incident" that had not yet had time to clear the beauty, and asked Thomas to sit down with a red face.

Lin Youlun walked out in a loose pajamas and took two cups of hot coffee from Li Jiaxin's hand. I took a glass myself. Another cup was handed to Thomas.

"Let me guess. What good news did you bring me, is it about the box office of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" on the first day? Lin Youlun sat down opposite Thomas, and there was no consciousness of being hit by the "adultery" on his face.

Americans have always been more open in this regard, and Thomas has been in the entertainment industry all year round, so he has long been surprised by this kind of thing, which is one of the reasons why he can disturb Lin Youlun without scruples.

"Thank goodness I thought you were ......"

"I can't miss it." Lin Youlun said this idiom for Thomas, and by the way, he also praised the improvement of Americans' Chinese proficiency.

Thomas took a sip of his coffee. Putting down the cup, he said seriously: "Do you know the truth, now it's all messed up outside, and hundreds of reporters are waiting at the door of the hotel, ready to interview you." ”

Lin Youlun frowned, he knew that there were only two possibilities for this situation, one was that the box office of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" was very bad on the first day, and all these American reporters came to see his jokes; The other is that the box office of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" was unusually good on the first day, so these reporters were recruited.

Seeing that Thomas doesn't look like he is angry and comes to him to discuss countermeasures, so Lin Youlun is more inclined to the latter possibility.

"Don't tell me. The film's first-day box office broke the North American record. ”

"Not really." Thomas shrugged, he had wanted to wait to see Lin Youlun's disappointed expression. But when he saw Lin Youlun breathe a long sigh of relief, he was puzzled.

"Don't be discouraged, the box office of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" on the first day of this time is actually only a little checked." Thomas seems to be comforting Lin Youlun, but in fact he wants to probe his tone.

"Don't forget, if the first-day box office of 'Ghost Blows the Lantern' really breaks the record, it will be a disaster for me, don't forget what the group of reporters downstairs are here for." Lin Youlun picked up the coffee and made a very helpless expression.

Thomas finally understood what Lin Youlun meant, the American media has been sparing no effort to advocate the threat theory of Hong Kong films, if the box office performance of "Ghost Blows the Lantern" is too good, some reporters will definitely make a big fuss about it.

"Maybe you should really give my suggestion seriously."

"What are you talking about?" Lin Youlun didn't understand.

"Forming a film company in the United States." Thomas brought up the old story again, in fact, he has been talking to Lin Youlun about this issue for the past two years, and Lin Youlun has refused every time because the time is not ripe.

"George Lucas said the same, it seems that he wants to partner with me......" Looking at Thomas's surprised expression, Lin Youlun then said something that made him very frustrated: "But I didn't agree." ”

"Oh my God, what the hell are you thinking?" Thomas looked at Lin Youlun with wide eyes, "Isn't it good to be like the "Rush Hour" you invested in and filmed for Cheng Long?" Partnering more with the American film industry will reduce a lot of pressure from the media. ”

Lin Youlun shook his head very decisively, "Give me another two or three years, it's not enough yet." ”

It's not that Lin Youlun doesn't want to set up a film company in the United States, but he wants to accumulate some strength through the development of Hong Kong films, and when the time comes, the status of the two sides will be more equal when he cooperates with Hollywood.

Thomas found that he couldn't immediately convince Lin Youlun on this issue, so he had to change the topic and say, "Then how are you going to deal with the current situation?" ”

"You mean the reporters at the hotel door?" Lin Youlun asked very strangely.

Thomas glanced at Lin Youlun angrily, he really doubted that Lin Youlun was listening to him carefully just now.

"What do you think?"

Lin Youlun spread his hands, "Although I am the producer of this movie, don't you think that this kind of thing reporters should interview the director of the film?" ”

"As far as I know, Director Wang Jing is not in the hotel now, he has been missing since last night."

Thomas thought that Lin Youlun would be disappointed when he heard the news, but he didn't expect Lin Youlun to show a very strange smile on his face.

"Don't worry, I know where he's gone."

——

Wang Jing is not alone in coming to the United States this time, and Qiu Yueqing, who was arranged by Lin Youlun to go to Taiwan before.

The relationship between Wang Jing and Qiu Yueqing has not been broken, but Wang Jing is usually very careful, and every time he goes to Taiwan, he sneaks around, for fear of being known by his wife.

came to the United States this time, and it was justifiably under the banner of coming over to promote the new film, Wang Jing quietly brought Qiu Yueqing over, and the two only made an appointment to meet in New York, not together, so no one else knew about it, and even Lin Youlun didn't notice it.

Although Lin Youlun didn't care where Wang Jing went in private, Wang Jing couldn't just disappear for no reason, so he left a contact address and phone number for Lin Youlun.

Lin Youlun didn't know that Wang Jing was going to have a private meeting with Qiu Yueqing, so he didn't hesitate to "sell" Wang Jing, if Cheng Long hadn't called Wang Jing in advance after learning about it, Wang Jing would have been in the dark until the last moment.

"28 million, you're not joking with me, are you?" Wang Jing's hand on the phone trembled, and the whole person was shocked by the news, and he didn't think much about Cheng Longwei's phone number in the hotel room where he and Qiu Yue had a tryst.

"Director Wang, you won't just know the news, right?" Cheng Long thought that Wang Jing was really joking with himself, and he didn't care too much, early this morning he heard the news that the box office of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" was as high as 28 million on the first day, and he immediately felt the hotel where the crew was staying, and happened to meet Lin Youlun who sent someone down to deal with those reporters guarding the door, and Wang Jing's contact information was asked by Cheng Long from the person's mouth.

Knowing that Wang Jing was not in the hotel, Cheng Long did not immediately go up to find Hong Jinbao and Yuan Di, but immediately made a call to Wang Jing, originally wanting to congratulate Wang Jing in advance, but he didn't expect to really "start" Wang Jing.

"What are you talking about, the reporter over there even knows where I live?" Wang Jing came back to his senses from the shocking news of the box office on the first day of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", and asked the reason for the incident before he realized that something bad was wrong, and if he was photographed by a reporter with Qiu Yueqing, then he would be unlucky.

Cheng Long originally wanted to ask Wang Jing out for dinner when he made this call, seeing that "Ghost Blows the Lantern" was such a blockbuster, and the box office of the premiere was almost twice that of "Rush Hour", it is absolutely impossible to say that Cheng Long did not have any ideas in his heart, but it was not good for him to go directly to Lin Youlun, so he wanted to talk about the tone from Wang Jing in a roundabout way.

But Wang Jing was already so anxious that his eyebrows burned at this time, how could he have time to talk more to Cheng Long, he casually said a few perfunctory sentences, and before Cheng Long could finish what he wanted to say, he casually found an excuse and hung up the phone.

Ran back to the bedroom to wake up Qiu Yueqing, who was still sleeping, and hurriedly put on his clothes while explaining, and in Qiu Yueqing's confused expression, Wang Jing grabbed his coat and rushed out of the room like a gust of wind.

Take the elevator downstairs, as soon as the elevator door opens, the crackling flash startles Wang Jing, and there are more than a dozen reporters at the elevator door, and as soon as he sees him, he raises the camera and shoots wildly.

Wang Jing was shocked and suspicious, surprised that these American reporters came so quickly, and puzzled that his face was said to be not known by few people in the United States, so how could he recognize it all at once?

Wang Jing thought so but wronged these reporters, they really don't know Wang Jing, only know that the director of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" is a fat man, but this is New York, Wang Jing is a Chinese in this hotel is very conspicuous, plus the body size can also be on the number, so it was immediately recognized.

After a round of flashing lights, the reporters surrounded Wang Jing again, and all kinds of questions popped up.

"Mr. Wang, are you still satisfied with the box office on the first day of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern"?"

"Mr. Wang, do you think it's normal for "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" to achieve such results at the box office on the first day?"

Wang Jing secretly complained in his heart, but he had to deal with these reporters carefully, and finally answered their questions, and a group of reporters rushed in at the door of the hotel.

Wang Jing's legs shook, oh my God, this still doesn't let people live!
