Chapter 260: I Am a Master of American Humor
"What kind of movie is this, buried alive, is it really buried alive?"
"How did you shoot it?"
"What the hell is going on with this Cornwallis?"
"yes, what's the end?"
"I really want to see this movie!"
Some lovers of literary films and documentaries on the Internet are very concerned and searching for information about this movie, but the strange thing is that after such a promotional video is uploaded, there is no information about this movie.
Hunger marketing is also applicable to movies, Wang Yang is to make "Buried Alive" hunger marketing.
AMC Cinemas has recently been promoting "Zombie Out of the Cage", Wang Yang's 2008 masterpiece.
The level of the audit has come down, and as expected by Wang Yang, it was set at P13.
In other words, it is forbidden for 13-year-olds and younger to watch, and 13-year-olds can watch movies together with their parents.
There is no restriction for those over 13 years old.
Wang Yang was in the cinema, and he was already able to see the trailer of "Zombie Out of the Cage" at the end of some movies, and of course, he could also find trailers on some websites on the Internet.
AMC is responsible for the work of distribution, and it is quite effective.
……
……
NBC TV.
That night, Wang Yang came to the back of the recording hall of David's talk show.
After half a month of waiting, he finally got a 5-minute performance time on David's talk show.
5 minutes is long or short, anyway, it may not make any waves for the audience, but for Wang Yang. He waited for half a month, hoping very much to conquer the hearts of some Americans in the next five minutes.
At the very least, make them know who they are and laugh at what he says.
In the background, Wang Yang's hands were a little sweaty. After all, it is in a famous program abroad, and there are so many audiences on the scene, this is not a Chinese man, and I don't know if what I guessed and wrote by myself can be recognized?
Finally, producer Donnie shouted, "Hey! It's your stage performance time. ”
Wang Yang could understand what this meant, he straightened his suit, and then walked through the door.
Behind that door. is the scene of the David show, walking up according to the rehearsal route, and seeing the audience in the United States, Wang Yang's heart is beating fast, but time does not allow him to hesitate too much.
When Wang Yang got the microphone, he immediately said, "Hi, hello everyone!" Hi! That one...... I don't have much time to perform because my green card is about to expire. ”
The audience listened. Immediately laughed and applauded. The scene was filled with laughter.
Wang Yang took a deep breath and continued: "I grew up in a poor country in China. One year in junior high school, we suddenly decided to repair the dirt road, pave it with bricks and cement, and let the students bring bricks to school......"
After hearing this, there was laughter and whistles, which was very enthusiastic. As a last resort, Wang Yang is pause.
After a while, Wang Yang continued: "We worked hard for three weeks and finally repaired the road. Years later I heard the term: child labor. ”
The scene burst into laughter, although Wang Yang felt that he was not happy at all, but for the Americans. This may be incomprehensible, since the law comes first for the United States.
Wang Yang paused, and he continued: "I was immediately surprised, what? Those kids still have money to work? ”
"Hahaha......"
"!!Shhhh
There was laughter at the scene, almost so enthusiastic that Wang Yang couldn't go on.
After calming down a little, Wang Yang continued: "So all I got was D. ”
The scene burst into laughter and applause.
"I read the report that children don't look at their watches anymore. They can only read electronic watches. I thought to myself, how are they going to report the location of the spice girls when they grow up? ”
"Hahaha......" The American audience couldn't help it, and they all laughed out loud below.
Wang Yang's expression was unmoved, and he continued: "Others say, 'The hot girls are in the direction of three o'clock', then they will definitely not see it. ”
The laughter rang out again, for Americans, watches are almost a must for boys, and American boys, know how to use the time to describe the direction, three o'clock, five o'clock?
"I love science and it helps me a lot in my love life. Once, I asked a girl out, and she said no. I asked, "Really?" And she said, hey, Joe, no means no. I said, NO is also nitric oxide. ”
After Wang Yang said this paragraph, the laughter on the scene sounded again, or rather, every time he said a word, the laughter on the scene came out.
"One year, I went to Mardi Gras in New Orleans. You have to understand that I don't approve of being naked in public. ”
"But if someone does do that, then I can't miss it!"
"Hahaha......"
"Yes, yes, this Chinese man is very humorous!"
The applause and laughter were non-stop.
"When I take American history class, I'm asked things like, 'Who is Benjamin, Benjamin?' I thought, "Well, that's why our convenience store was robbed?" ”
The sound of laughter kept bursting out, and the Americans were very happy.
These two presidents both have their heads on the dollar, so for Americans, it has become ridiculous.
"What is the Second Amendment?" I thought, "Well, could that be why our convenience store was robbed?" "The Second Amendment guarantees the right of people to bear arms, which means that the Second Amendment is a reason for the American people to have a legal gun ownership.
The scene continued to burst into laughter and applause.
Five minutes was almost up, Wang Yang didn't think about it, but every time he said a word, there was applause and smiles on the scene.
David walked up and clapped as he walked up.
Downey couldn't help nodding backstage: "In 5 minutes, the audience laughed no less than 30 times." On average, I laughed every 10 seconds, and this Huaxia Yang is really not simple! ”
After the recording of this night's program, it quickly made the American audience aware of a new style of humorous talk show of Wang Yang.
His talk show is different from the chatter between black and white Americans, but there is a kind of dullness, and the spoken language is not very fluent. It's okay to speak slowly, and then there's silence somewhere for a second.
Because this kind of talk show is obviously different from other people's talk shows, and it is a different kind of high-IQ cold humor, something that needs time to taste, what makes people laugh seems to be Wang Yang's deliberate pause, which can make them laugh out loud.
So, after this night, Wang Yang suddenly became popular on the Internet in the United States. And of course, his identity has also been searched by the American people a lot.
Some well-known newspapers in the United States began to report in this way.
"Chinese writers yang.wang shine on the David Show!"
"Super Comedian yang.wang talk show video has attracted people's attention."
"Director yang.wang was a guest on the David show, and the recent movie "Zombie Out of the Cage" was released."
"Demystifying yang.wang Photographs of Private Life in the United States."
On the website, in reality, yang.wang names appeared in the media in the United States at once, and there were really a lot of them.
Because there are a lot of people who go to call. asked about Wang Yang's identity, and also wanted to see his talk show performance again.
Of course. The news soon spread back to China.
For Huaxia, Wang Yang, who is so hot in the United States all of a sudden, also makes many people's faces a little hot.
If they used to think that Wang Yang might be a genius who was hot in Asia, but now they know that geniuses can shine no matter where they are.
Han Sanping at home. He saw Huaxia Daily, which reported the news of Wang Yang's David Show.
This may be the first time that a Chinese person has landed on such a famous program in the United States, and you must know that this program interviews almost all political leaders from all walks of life, of course. Three or four presidents of the United States have also appeared on this show.
Many Chinese want to be on it, but they can't, because they can't save face, and they don't have the ability to amuse the Americans on the show.
In fact, there are many people, including Han Sanping and Li Qin, who are also difficult to understand, and they saw the video sent back to China, and they saw that Wang Yang was very serious on it, and he was not fluent in English and told some things, but the audience below was laughing one after another, and they couldn't stop at all.
Hongyue saw it, and she didn't understand it either.
Called him and asked him why the way the Americans think?
It is also difficult for Wang Yang to say these things, even Huang Xi himself, when he was interviewed by Huaxia's host program, it was difficult to explain.
Whether it can be explained or not, anyway, Wang Yang's popularity in the United States exploded all of a sudden.
used to walk on the street and didn't know anyone, but overnight, after Wang Yang went to the streets of New York, he found that many people knew him, and he could already call out "Wang Yang" between words.
Of course, Americans and Chinese people still have different attitudes towards celebrities, at least they don't scream in particular, unless they are really superstars.
For example, if Wang Yang is Jackson, then it is estimated that it will cause many fans of the public to be excited.
But if it's just an ordinary actor, for the public, it's really just a recognition.
However, in Huaxia, Wang Yang thinks it may be like this.
As soon as a person becomes famous, the interview will naturally come.
Wang Yang was soon interviewed by some American journalists.
An American reporter asked, "Wangyang, do you plan to live in the United States forever, and one day, you will become an American?" ”
"Well, how to say it, it's hard to say, I don't know, just take it one step at a time."
Wang Yang didn't say NO directly, after all, even if the United States is not his country, but in the thoughts of the previous life, he naturally still feels that this country has some beauty of its own.
The American reporter asked: "Now that you are so famous in the United States, do you want to write American novels, as far as we know, you are an already rich writer in China, and you also have comic works, right?" ”
"Yes. Indeed, as you said, I think I may be writing an American novel one day, but this must be based on my understanding of American culture, otherwise it will inevitably lead to a lot of trouble if it is too casual and casual. ”
After listening to Wang Yang's words, American reporters. She nodded and continued to ask, "So are you going to give a speech, for example, some speeches for a fee?" ”
Wang Yang listened, he nodded and said, "Yes, but it may take more time to prepare." ”
It is very normal to give paid speeches in the United States, just like Guo Degang said cross talk, after becoming famous, a cross talk can make a lot of money.
For example, Wang Yang is now, he is trying to figure out a cross talk by himself. No, if an American-style talk show comes down, it will not say that there is a ticket income of 60,000 or 70,000 yuan, that is, according to the attendance rate of 80%, or even 100%, if there are at least 500 or more audiences.
Of course, making money is a trivial matter, and it is important to be influential.
The American reporter asked again: "I heard that your "Zombie Out of the Cage" is about to be released. How high do you expect your film to be at the box office? ”
"Of course, the higher the box office, the better, as for how much. I don't know much now. ”
"Thank you very much for your time."
"It doesn't matter."
After Wang Yang's interview, he hurriedly dared to go to the AMC department company, and there was still a more important press conference here, and there were more than 200 reporters who came to interview.
For him, who often sees this kind of scene in China, he is naturally very relieved. But the thought of him in the United States made me a little excited.
Although he was also able to get in touch with some international media in China, there was nothing intuitive about it after it was reported on the United States. Particularly big impact.
Wang Yang's influence in the United States has always stayed on the Chinese group, until now, and slowly made some elite-level whites and blacks in the United States like this Chinese very much.
Many people call Wang Yang "master", and the media also calls him so.
The English of the master is grandmaster, and in front of this word, Wang Yang has another funny title, that is, a funny master.
Americans just think that he speaks humorously, a kind of inexplicable love.
"Sorry gentlemen, I'm late, maybe my car is out of gas."
"Hahaha......" The group of reporters in the United States also laughed without warning, which was completely unexpected.
Wang Yang's eyebrows tapped, and it seemed that when everyone had an intuitive feeling for him, they fell into his humor.
It's like Guo Degang, he is in Huaxia, casually using a tone to say a word, maybe after saying it in other people's mouths, it's not funny at all, but when it comes to Lao Guo's mouth, it will become very cola.
The master of humor and comedy is actually very difficult, like Wang Yang, who can be so humorous under the public, must be a person with great wisdom.
In the face of the reporters' interviews, Wang Yang also talked and laughed fluently, word by word, for Americans, the reporters on the scene also constantly burst into some laughter.
Slowly, Wang Yang was able to adapt to it, and he was very tolerant of finding the laughter of Americans, and he was also able to reasonably use the charm of language to make them laugh out loud and applaud themselves.
……
……
After the grand press conference interview, Wang Yang did not expect that a senior executive of AMC came to see him, who was a shareholder of AMC, and he was worth tens of billions of billions.
The name is Joe. Newbolt is a very fat middle-aged man who looks quite rich.
Joe. Newbolt held Wang Yang's hand and said happily: "Yang, you are really a humorous person, I like you very much." ”
"Oh, thank you." Wang Yang couldn't help grinning, I have to say, he has some pain, but there is no way, this group of Americans has a kind of affection for themselves like this?
"Let's take a group photo, I think you will definitely be in the United States hosting industry in the future."
"Thank you, it's just a pity that I'm not a host, I'm a writer."
"Haha, that's really wishing you a good American novel."
Wang Yang nodded, Qiao. Newbolt didn't talk to him much and left immediately.
Mobile phone at this time. It also rang just now, it was Dong Chou calling.
Dong Chou said: "It's really unexpected, Director Wang, you can really do this in the United States." ”
Wang Yang smiled, he said, "How are you, what are you doing now?" ”
Dong Chou said: "I finished today. ”
Wang Yang sighed: "It's your play that is finished." The Green Hornet isn't good yet? ”
"Sort of." Zhou Dong said. "Why don't you come over and have a drink?"
"Then if you want to drink, I must be with you."
Wang Yang has no problems, this time he came to the United States, and important things have basically been completed.
He has nothing to worry about, just wait for the release of "Zombie Out" with peace of mind, look at the box office in the first week, and see if he has a chance. Can you get the opportunity to do a talk show at the White House?
Huang Xi in his previous life could, Wang Yang felt that he could definitely do it, so he first said that his identity and influence in China were enough to go to the president and ridicule American political leaders.
Wang Yang was thinking about these things in his head, and he also saw Jay Chou soon.
Jay Chou is wearing a very cool look today, with a bit of denim flavor.
In the bar, the rhythm music of the more black jazz genre was playing. It's a live music troupe with black people playing a kind of violin instrument on it. Of course, he played a kind of long harp.
Wang Yang and Chou Dong are both people who like music, and almost clubbing is not for beauties, but to sit down, drink some wine, listen to some music or something.
The two of them found a quiet corner when he had just sat down. I sensed something was wrong.
In one corner, there were a few young white Americans with obvious poor faces, with strange haircuts, some tattoos on their shoulders, and most importantly, makeup on their eyes. It's the same as the thugs.
In reality, Wang Yang is really the first time he has encountered such a fierce person.
Therefore, Wang Yang said to Dong Zhou: "Let's pay attention later, this time is not very clean." ”
Dong Chou said: "No, I've been here a few times, and I don't have anything." ”
"There's something, and you can find it."
After a while, Wang Yang looked at the group of young white Americans who looked like thugs, and they all left their seats smoking cigarettes, about the back of the bar.
Seeing that their expressions were very weird, Wang Yang must have guessed that something not very good had happened.
Originally, Wang Yang listened to the jazz and drank wine, and he didn't intend to be involved in this turmoil, but when he turned his head, he saw a man over there at the door behind the bar, and he covered an Asian black-haired girl, who looked like a girl from Singapore or other Southeast Asian regions.
It looks like he's committing violence or doing something else.
When Wang Yang saw it, he couldn't help it, patted Dong Chou's shoulder and said, "Wait for something to do first, I'll go over there and have a look." ”
"You ......"
Before Dong Zhou finished speaking, Wang Yang had already gotten up and left his seat, he walked quickly, but when he arrived at the back door, he hurriedly took a glass of wine, and suddenly turned around and started drinking.
In an instant, Wang Yang saw that there was a staircase at the back door, and under the sound of the music in the bar, he still vaguely heard some more painful cries from upstairs.
At the place of the stairs, there was a big man guarding, Wang Yang scratched his head, he had some entanglements, after all, it was a very risky thing.
So, now it's best to do both.
Wang Yang dialed the number of 911 and put it directly in his pocket.
Then, after drinking, he walked to the back door with his head down.
The American fat man immediately glared, looked at Wang Yang and said, "What are you going to do?" ”
Wang Yang said: "I, I'll find a toilet......
"Toilet in ......"
Before the American fat man could say anything, Wang Yang reached out and grabbed his arm, and immediately pushed his knee on his lower span, and then he didn't have to take care of him, and went upstairs directly.
……
……
In a room on the second floor, several young white American gangsters, like hungry wolves, each with terrifying eyes, stared at an Asian mixed-race girl from Singapore.
This mixed-race girl, holding her arms, she was too frightened to make a sound, because her face was red and swollen.
"Mike, this Asian lady, you come first."
"Wow~Karma!" An American man with blond hair and a hairstyle like a rooster's comb, he stuck out his tongue and looked like he was going to come over and lick the girl's face, and the Asian girl was scared to the ground.
"Haha......"
"Woo woo woo ......"
This group of guys, as if crazy, imitated the crime plot in the movie, and constantly surrounded this Asian girl, making sound intimidation.
The man with the cockscomb just now raised the whip in his hand, and when he was about to whip the Asian girl, suddenly, a figure came in and kicked it.
"Ahh The white American man with the head of the cockscomb flew out and lay on the ground.
There are a total of five ghostly American men here, and they all looked at Wang Yang, all staring at them with terrifying eyes, long mouths, and some sounds similar to those of vampires.
Of course, Wang Yang didn't think that they were really vampires, otherwise, how could they be kicked by himself.
The group of young people in front of them may have watched too many thug movies, such as the famous "violent neighborhood", a group of nests wearing leather armor, riding motorcycles, and graffiti, and modified cars, on which there are some very sharp steel, and a group of people are like crazy, extremely scary, representing crime.
Obviously, this group of people is imitating a group of horrific thugs in a violent neighborhood, bullying the weak like wolves here.
"Boy, you dare to meddle, do you know who we are?"
"Hmph, dare to go wild on your Grandpa Henry's territory, are you impatient?"
"Hit, beat him."
"Don't talk nonsense, bastards!" Wang Yang sneered and roared, then hurriedly reached out and grabbed a waving arm, and the next moment, he immediately bowed down and threw the American man to the ground on the other side.
The American man naturally let out some painful screams, he didn't expect that Wang Yang would be so powerful.
The remaining four men also rushed forward one after another.
Don't look at them as if they are very powerful, but in front of Wang Yang, who has been practicing for many years, they are a little pediatric.
Three times and five divided by two, Wang Yang used his fists and feet to immediately knock these guys to the ground.
He stepped on a guy who was still trying to stand up, quickly took out his phone from his pocket, and continued to talk to 911.
The phone is definitely not hung up, which is also a feature of 911, that is, after dialing, the other party will generally listen until it can judge what is going on.
If it is in China, Wang Yang believes that no matter how timely 110 is, I am afraid that after the police car, the matter will already have an ending.
The Asian girls were frightened and did not dare to stand up even after they fell to the ground.
"Well, here it is, you guys come quickly."
After Wang Yang hung up the 911 call, he hurriedly made up for a few kicks on these guys, all of them were hit to some special parts of the body, not only did they have no combat effectiveness, but they may not even have much strength to stand up.
That is, he doesn't know the laws of the United States, does it allow such a thing to happen?
"Is it possible, I'll be overly defensive...... It's impossible. ”
Wang Yang also thought about it, he himself has a lawyer, even if he is ruthless, it may cause the crippled situation of these guys, but there is no way, who let them touch the muzzle. (To be continued......)
