Chapter 426: City Councillor

How good is it? This is the cover feature of the American "Entertainment Weekly", on the cover is a photo of Lee Chung-hee wearing an L&L brand casual suit, next to a line of small print:

"Harvard Love Story" will be broadcast simultaneously around the world.

The article wrote: "In the past half of the year, Fox TV, which had just made a lot of money by virtue of the copyright of "American Idol" that it bought from Dr. Li, failed this time.

They lost to NBC in their bid for the North American rights to "Harvard Love Story" and related rights.

However, even if it failed, Fox TV still gave a super high evaluation to the TV series "Harvard Love Story".

Laxon, the vice president we interviewed, said that the TV series is like a combination of dozens of movies, the plot is great, the rhythm is good, and the picture is even more beautiful, like the scenery ...... the wilderness in spring.

Obviously, he didn't express his feelings to please someone, he really felt good.

At the same time, TV stations from all over the world, including South Korea's MBC, Japan's NKH, China's CC*T*V-8, an island Dongsen TV, a Hong Kong Jade Channel, Australian TV, and the British BBC, all got the broadcast rights of "Harvard Love Story" for the first time, and it is said that they will be broadcast in the same time period, that is, in mid-September.

According to the news coming back, these TV stations were purchased at a sky-high price, but I heard that they are not worried about the problem of recovering their costs.

Japan's NHK TV station even said in an interview with us that their advertisers are about to overwhelm the advertising department of the TV station.

As we all know, Dr. Lee is known for his work on "Winter Sonata". It is unrivaled in popularity. Even more popular than all the stars in their own country.

And NHK TV also said. When "Harvard Love Story" is broadcast, I believe that Dr. Li's popularity will reach a new high, and from this point of view, they obviously also think that "Harvard Love Story" is a great TV series.

However, whether it is NBC, MBC, NHK, etc., all the TV stations just say yes. But I didn't say anything about the plot or anything like that.

So, how good is this TV series, I'm sure all of us are looking forward to it.

Now, perhaps we should hear what Dr. Lee himself had to say.

Entertainment Weekly: Can you tell us more about "Harvard Love Story", do you think this is a history-making TV series, and the quality is invincible?

Lee Chung-hee: Thank you very much for the high praise from all sides, as far as I am concerned, because I made my own relationship with the leading actors, I can't make too many comments, but. I can say that this is certainly an excellent TV series.

Entertainment Weekly: To be specific. For example, what are the good things?

Lee Chung-hee: First of all, the cast, I don't think you will deny this (laughs), to be honest, one of the reasons for the success of the TV series is because of these old friends who help me and understand me, otherwise, the show might have ended in the first place.

Entertainment Weekly: Does this mean that you almost got into a fight in the beginning?

Lee Chung-hee: (laughs), it's not that strict, but I can honestly tell you that Tom Hanks used to use a kind of "boy, do you know what you're doing now?" Leonardo DiCaprio looked at me with a look of "Man, you're not kidding me, I'm a person of status!" Emoji! (Laughs)

Entertainment Weekly: (also happy), it sounds like you're on a pretty good relationship.

Lee Jung-hee: That's for sure, I've known Tom for four years, he's a super funny guy, Leonardo hasn't known him for a long time, but I think we have a lot of similarities, so we got together very quickly.

Jennifer Aniston has also been around for a long time, and she supported me even more this time, and also asked me to calm down, and then slowly straighten things out with everyone.

There are also Natalie Portman, Nicole Kidman, Song Yoona, Won Bin, Jang Dongjian and many more.

It's like what I just said, if it's not for these old friends, I can't get out of this drama, it's not just that kind of relationship. And the chemistry of the show, wow, it's really amazing, what you're going to see, it's really, really natural and beautiful, I think that's the performance, or rather, that's life, it's amazing. (He looks excited, his eyebrows fluttering, his hands dancing, and he seems to be really good.)

Entertainment Weekly: What about other aspects, the plot or something?

Lee Chung-hee: Speaking of the plot, my thank you to the screenwriters I worked with, to be honest, this is the first time I have worked with someone else, and that's because I care too much, but I'm a little unsure.

However, because of this, sometimes I can be a little impatient, but fortunately, they tolerated me and helped me create this wonderful script together.

You know, the script is the root of Yiqiē, and then, I have to thank my two directors, David Warren and Yoon Seok-ho, the former helped me control the rhythm very well, and the latter carved the picture to make this TV series really an art.

Therefore, this is a TV series that can be compared to the quality of the movie in every episode, the quality of the movie, and even, in terms of the fullness of the plot, he is unique, and his meticulousness creates a perfect plot.

Entertainment Weekly: That is to say, the plot, rhythm, graphics, etc. are all unparalleled.

Lee Chung-hee: (shrugs), so to speak, but these are just some of the insignificant aspects, and you have to see it for yourself, every picture, every character, every performance, every plot ....... (Well, he got excited again and began to use his habitual gestures, from which he was a strong man, and very organized and assertive)

……

How good it is, I think, the more we listen, the more curious and anticipating we become, but the day of the broadcast is not far away, so let's watch it then.

Dr. Li's production must be a high-quality product, and this time, I believe we will not be disappointed! ”

"Harvard Love Story" signed contracts with major TV stations very smoothly, and the next publicity and public relations have nothing to do with Imperial Entertainment.

However, Lee Chung-hee had to cooperate with major TV stations to promote around the world, which made him very helpless to leave his family and children and embark on the journey again.

For the first time, he was a little tired of this kind of life, but not to mention the reality, there is a system, he can't get rid of it at all, he can only work honestly.

Among the publicity in full swing is his own affairs, including the four major fashion week activities that began in early September.

The other is that his eldest brother's election campaign has reached the last moment, and yesterday afternoon, he also appeared in Lower Manhattan, New York, to stand up for his brother.

Voting began this morning and ended at 7 p.m.

It was only past three o'clock in the afternoon, Li Gongtang and Li Wenxi also came over, and the father and son gathered together to wait for news.

To be honest, Li Shixi's qualifications are too shallow, but the Li family's power in New York is already huge, and the Li family has a huge appeal in the Chinese circle.

This time, Mayor Bloomberg secretly helped in the election campaign, and he was assigned to the area with the largest number of Chinese in the lower city.

It's really hard to lose, so seeing that Li Shixi was a little nervous, Li Zhengxi patted him on the shoulder with a smile and said, "Brother, you are the one who wants to be the president, just a small councilor, why are you so nervous!" ”

"You kid!" Li Shixi glanced at him angrily and shook his head, this younger brother has now become the backbone of the family, and Li Gongtang respects his opinion most of the time.

"The president doesn't mean anything!" Li Wenxi was even more ashamed to say on the side, "It's not a puppet for manipulation, and those guys in the Congress have the final say on what they do!" ”

Lee Chung-hee was happy, "You can't say that, when you become president, you have some power after all, and when you share the cake, you still have the initiative!" ”

"What are you talking about!"

Li Gongtang scolded them at this time, although they said it in Chinese, and no one around could understand it, but this kind of words were not very good after all.

Li Wenxi was happy, squeezed his eyes at Li Zhengxi, and was about to say something, when the manager in charge of campaign coordination walked in, his face was full of joy, and he shouted from afar, "Congratulations, congratulations, we have just gotten the news, we have already received more than half of the votes, and we have won ......!" ”

Li Zhengxi looked at this and his brother clenched his fists hard, and smiled.

Whatever they say, in reality, even a small city councillor has a lot of power.

Of course, power also comes responsibility. More supervision!

"Let's go, it's time for you to thank your voters!" Li Gongtang patted Li Shixi on the shoulder, and he also wanted to thank the Chinese bigwigs who had contributed to it, they played the role of "stump" in this, and they were one of the biggest helpers for Li Shixi to win the election.

Lee Chung-hee and Lee Moon-hee didn't have to follow, the former dialed the phone number of Mayor Comrade Bloomberg, and when it was connected, he said, "Thank you, Mr. Mayor!" ”

"I was just about to call you and say congratulations!"

Over there, Bloomberg smiled and said meaningfully: "It seems that we can work better together in the future!" ”

"It is my pleasure, Mr. Mayor!"

Lee Chung-hee also happily continued: "Perhaps, if we have time, we can have a meal or something!" ”

"Do you have time?"

Bloomberg smiled and said, "You're a busy man, the kind that makes headlines every day!" ”

"Mr. Mayor, I'm sure I'll have time!" Lee Chung-hee said casually.

Over there, Li Wenxi looked at him talking to Bloomberg and rolled his eyes speechlessly.

Sometimes, he felt that he didn't know his brother well, and others said that he was insidious and greedy in negotiations.

However, his younger brother is really hidden, this guy is just the face of a big star on the surface!

Coincidentally, Lee Chung-hee really thought about the TV series "House of Cards" at this time. (To be continued......)
