Chapter 251 Goodbye Liu Tianxian, a small farewell is better than a wedding
New York, airport.
Zou Zhongyan looked at the young man in front of him who was wearing a black casual suit and wearing sunglasses that could not hide his handsomeness and more imposing manner than before, and waved,
"Mr. Zhou."
“Sister Zou, please come and pick me up at the airport.”
Zhou Yutang took off his sunglasses and a smile broke out on his face.
A cordial handshake and simple greetings.
Although she is her boss, she still needs basic respect.
"You are my boss, these are what you should do."
Zou Zhongyan, accompanied by two assistants, took the initiative to lead Zhou Yutang's luggage out of the airport.
When I came to the United States this time, I communicated with Zou Zhongyan in advance.
On the way to the hotel, we talked about this trip in the United States. Zou Zhongyan had already arranged everything.
The most important thing is to negotiate with the TV station for the variety show copyright of "The Voice".
Originally, people from NBC TV station contacted Mingjie Company first, wanting to bring The Voice to the United States.
But we encountered problems in contract negotiations.
The Jew over there who is in charge of this project is as cunning as a ghost.
I want a show and I want to be an uncle.
After several pulls, the plan given was to lower the price and buy out the program rights in one go, and by the way, a bunch of ridiculous pie was promised.
For example, help Mingjie Company promote the development of business in the United States.
Zhou Yutang naturally disagrees.
At that time, Mingjie Company was just an unknown new company, and "The Voice" was just a new music variety show.
Adopting the model of separation of production and broadcasting, Mingjie Company produces programs and then broadcasts them through the TV station platform.
The high cost of program production at the beginning directly scared off all domestic TV stations. Tian Ming also took a certain amount of responsibility before negotiating a cooperation with Modu TV.
Modu TV Station insists on signing a gambling agreement, and Mingjie Company will be fully responsible for the program production costs and investment risks.
The TV station pays the production costs in installments. If the ratings reach the standard line agreed by both parties, the TV station will give dividends to the programs linked to the ratings.
This approach is acceptable to everyone and has achieved a win-win situation.
Now that "The Voice" has proven that it is a variety show that is popular all over the world and is very likely to become popular in the United States, the Jews are not willing to give out dividends.
"Mr. Zhou, do you want to go to the hotel first to get rid of the jet lag?"
"No, help me make appointments with people from CBS and ABC TV stations. I want to speed up the negotiation."< br>
Zou Zhongyan has a deeper understanding of Zhou Yutang's vigorous and resolute work style.
He nodded slightly and said with some admiration: "Mr. Zhou, Bob, the senior executive of New Line Company, is very interested in you and wants to make an appointment with you."
This Bob was with Zou Wenhuai at the beginning. The co-star of "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles", which became a hit in the Hollywood film market, is also one of the major shareholders of New Line.
"Let's wait until I get back from Stanford University."
"Then let's go to Stanford University first. Mr. Zhou has friends there?"
Zou Zhongyan's expression A little surprised, she got her master's degree from Stanford.
"Yes, there is an important date."
Zhou Yutang nodded slightly, raised his eyebrows and smiled lightly: "Sister Zou, please help me book a hotel near the school. I may have to stay here for a while. "
"Okay. "
Zou Zhongyan nodded and agreed.
But I was a little curious.
Who is more important than New Line's major shareholder?
Liu Yifei was wearing a light gray windbreaker, paired with simple jeans, and carrying a handbag as she walked along the tree-shaded path of the school.
Exquisite figure.
The fairy spirit is fluttering.
The breeze came and ruffled her long hair.
A few rays of the setting sun penetrated the shade of the trees and fell on her flying hair.
Looking from a distance, her whole body seemed to be shrouded in a ball of holy light, like an angel descending into the world.
From time to time, Asian students would look at her and raise their voices in a childish way.
Liu Yifei put on her headphones, lowered her head and quickened her pace.
It has been several months since she came here.
The pace of life here is very simple.
She is not a big star, just an ordinary student.
Except for some Chinese students, basically no one knew her.
Liu Yifei lived very freely and relaxedly during this period.
The daily schedule is basically from school, then to the gym, and then back to my residence.
Rarely communicate with outsiders.
I didn’t pay attention to those things in the entertainment industry.
Except for the occasional news that I can’t help but look at that guy.
The new movie is still being released, and the box office has exceeded 768 million.
I am about to make a commercial blockbuster co-produced by the two countries.
From actor to director.
He seems to succeed easily in anything he does.
It would be nice if it wasn't so good.
Then there won’t be so many people liking him.
In the library.
Liu Yifei looked at the book in front of her, but that face appeared in her mind unconsciously, and she sighed quietly.
My thoughts also drifted back to the day on the set of "My Love from the Star", when I overheard Yang Mi chatting with that person.
Liu Yifei, who felt a little resentful when she thought about it, regarded this book as a philandering carrot.
I flipped through several pages in one breath.
Unless he suddenly appears in front of you.
Otherwise, I will never pay attention to him again in the future.
Obviously.
This is impossible.
From China to here, we are thousands of miles apart.
He is so red now that he must have a lot of schedule announcements.
Maybe he is busy spreading scandals with some older sister.
Liu Yifei was thinking wildly, feeling a little sour and bitter. She turned up the volume so that she could not think about him for a while.
“I want to remember your appearance, like a fish remembering the embrace of water, like a cloud stopping in the sky.”
“When night comes, I will not forget the sunshine. Warmth, I want to forget your appearance, like a fish forgetting the taste of the sea, let go of all dreams and worries."
The song "Like a Fish" is playing in the headphones, which is also Liu Yifei's favorite song song.
Because this is a song that Zhou Yutang wrote for her, a song that belongs exclusively to her.
Crack.
At this time.
A pen dropped to the ground by a passerby, making a crisp sound.
It happened to fall at Liu Tianxian's feet. The kind-hearted Miss Liu took a look, took off her earphones, leaned over to pick up the pen, and then handed it over.
"Thank you."
Hearing this familiar voice, Liu Yifei was slightly stunned.
Immediately raised his head.
The pupils are directly shaken.
“Long time no see, classmate Xiao Liu.”
Zhou Yutang sat next to her, the gentle smile in his eyes became stronger, and like magic, he took out a white flower from the pocket of his casual suit.
Put it between the pages of her book.
I don’t know why, but when I saw this clean and gentle smiling face that I had missed for a long time, I saw the flower in my book.
The sadness and resentment in my heart just now suddenly disappeared.
Liu Yifei was obviously so excited that she was like fireworks in full bloom, but she deliberately acted calm and calm: "Why are you here?"
Zhou Yutang turned his pen leisurely and said with a chuckle: "The company has business here, so I stopped by to see you."
"I don't want to see you."
Liu Yifei turned around .
Looking at Zhou Yutang's clear eyes and gentle smile.
Liu Yifei felt a little wronged, a little hurt, and wanted to cry.
This is the man who makes her think about her day and night, even if she wants to let go, but is reluctant to let him go.
An encounter from the cast of The Condor.
From curiosity to liking, from gradually liking, to slowly getting involved, she was attracted and impressed by this man step by step
Why didn't she want to stay with Zhou Yutang forever? Together?
But reality is not that easy.
Many women were approaching Zhou Yutang like moths to a flame.
Liu Yifei originally wanted to leave the flashy Vanity Fair and try to use time to dilute this feeling.
Over the past few months, Liu Yifei slowly built a wall in her heart.
But this inner wall that tightly protected him collapsed from the moment he saw Zhou Yutang again and was completely reduced to ruins.
“Really?”
"You are the most annoying. I don't want you to come see me."
Holding the book and leaning to the other side, Liu Yifei's mouth corners slightly raised uncontrollably.
Although it is only a subtle arc.
But it still showed her mood after seeing Zhou Yutang at this time.
After all, I am still happier than other feelings.
If a woman says she doesn't want it, she means she wants it.
Zhou Yutang caught a glimpse of the smile that bloomed and then disappeared quickly. He took her hand directly and led her outside.
Liu Yifei was a little stunned: "What are you doing?"
"Eating."
Zhou Yutang said confidently: "I have been flying for so long and I haven't even fallen down. Jet lag, continuous high-intensity work, and then running here again, I didn’t even eat dinner. You touched my stomach, and my abdominal muscles were exhausted.”
"I'd better starve you to death."
Liu Yifei snorted in disgust: "You really haven't eaten?"
"Of course, you can do your best to be a landlord, don't be like this Stingy."
"Okay then."
Liu Yifei shook her hand unnaturally: "Don't mess around, it won't be good if others see you."
"No one knows us here."
While talking to Liu Yifei, Zhou Yutang looked around.
To be honest, I am a fan of Shanhu Tsunami in China, but I don’t know many people abroad.
"Then you can leave after dinner."
"Yeah."
I took Zhou Yutang to a nearby restaurant and watched him wolfing down a hamburger and then immediately started to eat steak. The hunger on his face was definitely not fake.
Liu Yifei actually felt a little distressed and handed him a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice: "Eat slowly, no one will fight with you, drink some water."
From the restaurant in America. Features: Large meat tube.
This is quite to Zhou Yutang's liking. He has always been fond of all kinds of things.
Fengjuan Canyun finished eating and wiped her mouth with a wet wipe. Liu Yifei ordered a vegetable salad and looked at him with her chin in her little hand.
"Are you full?"
"The main thing is the beauty and the food. I'm full."
"It's boring, so take your time and watch."
Liu Yifei rolled her eyes cutely : "I'm going home."
Zhou Yutang waved for two vanilla ice creams and handed one to Liu Yifei.
"The calories are too high, I'll just take one bite."
Liu Yifei hesitated for a moment, but still couldn't resist the temptation.
Girls are born with little resistance to this type of dessert.
After finishing the ice cream, Liu Yifei quickly stood up and wanted to leave.
When she got in the car, she was a little annoyed that this guy didn't stop her.
As soon as I started the car, I couldn't help but look out the window.
Seeing Zhou Yutang clumsily communicating with the fat black aunt in sign language, she worriedly turned off the engine and got out of the car, walked over and asked:
"Where is Xiaoyu?"
Every woman knows that Mao Xiaoyu is Zhou Yutang's personal assistant, and they basically have a good relationship with her.
"She brought me here to give her a holiday and let her breathe the free air."
"Then how will you go back later?"
"I'll walk back by myself." Zhou Yutang said nonchalantly: "At most, you'll encounter some zero-yuan purchases and gunfights, it'll be fine."
< br>
“You thought you were making a movie?”
“After I came here, I often watched the news. This is normal, right? Isn’t there a saying that says, Free America, shootings happen every day?”< br>
"."
Liu Tianxian was helpless: "Do you know the road?"
"Didn't I just inquire?"
"Why are you being mean to me?"
“.”
After a slight hesitation, Liu Yifei said kindly: "Forget it, then I'll take you back to the hotel."
"Okay, okay."
Liu Yifei didn't even When she realized it, Zhou Yutang had already gotten into the passenger seat of her car.
Liu Yifei, who felt vaguely that she had been tricked, curled her lips, but didn't say anything.
Who told this guy not to understand English?
After arriving at the hotel, she thought about doing good things to the end, helped communicate with the front desk, and took Zhou Yutang to the room that had been opened.
There are no flowers this time.
Thinking of the absurdity of that day, Liu Yifei suddenly panicked and was about to leave. Zhou Yutang pulled her to sit down on the sofa, and then went straight to the refrigerator to get a bottle of red wine and two glasses.
“Come and have a drink, I have something to say to you.”
“What do you want to say?”
Liu Yifei's attention was attracted and she drank red wine in small sips.
"I want to say, maybe the food here is too good and you feel a little fat."
"!!!"
Liu Yifei's anger level was instantly full. : "What nonsense are you talking about? I've been working out all the time and I haven't gained weight at all!"
I drank a glass of wine angrily, my chest couldn't help rising and falling, still feeling uneasy, I glared at Zhou Yutang and gave myself another thought. Pour a glass of wine.
We chatted about the little things in life and also talked about things in the circle with her.
Unknowingly, a bottle of red wine quickly ran low. Zhou Yutang saw Liu Yifei's blushing cheeks and asked with concern: "Qianbao, are you okay?"
"Who is you Qianbao? "
"Oh, it seems okay, let's drink some more"
"Just drink, who is afraid of whom?"
Liu Yifei had a tough mouth, but she was not very good at drinking. After a few more glasses of red wine, not only her cheeks, which were as sharp as a goose, were already glowing with a gorgeous red glow, but her fair neck was also flushed, and her whole body was shaking slightly. .
Zhou Yutang took the opportunity to support her: "Xianbao, are you okay?"
Liu Yifei covered her head and said: "It's okay, I'm just a little dizzy. I won't drink anymore. I want to go home. "
After saying that, she stood up unsteadily and wanted to walk out.
“How do you drive in this condition?”
"I can do it, I'm very powerful."
Liu Yifei snorted, her arrogant look was really cute.
The corners of Zhou Yutang's mouth gradually softened, but he couldn't help but hold her waist and stop her.
"Oh, what are you doing? Let me go."
Liu Yifei trembled, struggled hard for a while, and then gave up quickly.
The waist is a very sensitive point on her body.
Zhou Yutang is very strong, and her resistance is in vain.
Wen Xiang Runyu fell into her arms, but Zhou Yutang made no further move.
Putting Liu Tianxian on the sofa, Zhou Yutang asked casually: "Is Aunt Liu at home? Ask her to pick you up, otherwise I won't worry."
"There is an emergency suddenly, and my mother returns home. Let’s deal with it.”
Liu Yifei saw Zhou Yutang getting up and walking towards the kitchen, and suddenly became curious: "What are you doing?"
"I'll make you a cup of honey water."
Zhou Yutang chuckled: "I used to Sometimes after drinking too much at a party, I will feel better if I drink a glass of honey water when I come back.”
As a personal assistant, Mao Xiaoyu is responsible, meticulous and thoughtful.
Although Zhou Yutang gave her a break, after booking a hotel room here, she purchased all the things Zhou Yutang used in life in advance.
"Then you stay here for one night and wait until tomorrow."
Zhou Yutang helped her lie down on the bed and said with a smile: "Red wine has a strong stamina, just take a rest."
< br>"Yeah."
Liu Yifei half-closed her eyes, looking very obedient.
Zhou Yutang took off her shoes and put her legs under the quilt to cover her up. Liu Yifei suddenly felt happy and happy that she was being taken care of.
I don’t know if I drank too much.
Her head was dizzy, and she didn't know where the impulse came from, so she took the initiative to hug Zhou Yutang's waist from behind.
“Xiao Zhou, I want to talk to you.”
“Well, you say.”
“I’m so bored here, I can’t find anything to talk to. people.”
Everyone has a desire to talk.
Liu Yifei is no exception.
I live a life here isolated from the glitzy entertainment industry.
But she actually doesn’t have any friends here.
There are a lot of words piled up in my heart, but I can’t find anyone to tell them.
Although Aunt Liu is connected by blood with her and is the closest person to her, when a girl grows up, she will always have some worries that she cannot tell her parents,
"Actually, I also had friends in the past."
Liu Yifei hugged Zhou Yutang like a large bear doll, and murmured: "I have many friends from different countries. There is a Russian girl, her name is Dasha, she is very, very beautiful. , she is also very nice.”
“Are you as beautiful as you?”
“She is as beautiful as an elf, always wearing two long braids.”
< br>
"Then you are a fairy."
"You are so annoying, can you please stop interrupting?"
Although she was happy in her heart, she still spoke coquettishly, but even she did not notice it. , The tone is so soft and cute: "Actually, at the beginning, when my mother brought me to live here, I was really scared. They were all different people, speaking a language I didn't understand, and even going to school was very difficult. Not getting used to it."
"There were students from many countries in the class, and there were a few South Korean girls who always made things difficult for me."
"Why are they making things difficult for you?"< br>
"I was sitting well in class there, and suddenly the Korean girl came over and pulled my hair, and drew something on me with a pen."
"I was very depressed. Later, my friends here We started arguing with them."
"Can you bear this?"
Zhou Yutang sneered: "If it were me, I would beat them up after school. I am not afraid of the stick. Damn it, you’ll be honest after a beating.”
“Xiao Zhou”
Liu Yifei patted him and continued: "I am quite civilized. I told the teacher right after class and called their parents over. Later, they were punished for a week and were not allowed to go to class."
"Isn't it a punishment if you don't go to class? Isn't that a reward?"
Zhou Yutang shook his head dissatisfied: "I will help you vent your anger later."
"Why are you angry? ."
Liu Yifei angrily knocked off his hand that kept causing trouble, and warned: "Also, don't touch it."
"I'll hold you and promise not to move."
"Okay then."
Liu Yifei reluctantly agreed: "Why are you touching me again?"
"I promise, just touch it and never move it."
"Uh"
…………………………
“Yu Tang, how are things going over there?”
“It’s almost done. The cooperation intention of the TV station here has been confirmed, and the remaining It’s just the price. Let’s leave it to the business team to discuss. The result is coming soon.”
“Then when will you come back?”
Tian Ming felt Zhou Yutang’s voice was a little relaxed and asked with a smile. .
"Let's wait for a while, I have to go to South Korea."
"Don't be too happy to miss Shu, play less with Ocean Horses, young people should take care of themselves."
"Brother Ming, My health is very good."
Zhou Yutang also laughed.
Suddenly freed from the intense working state, his whole mind was relaxed.
Zhou Yutang lived a very comfortable life with Liu Tianxian.
The copyright of "The Last Man" has been sold to New Line, and the copyright of "The Voice" involves greater interests. The business negotiation team is still in the final rounds with two TV stations in the United States. The pull.
As for NBC, there is no doubt that it is out.
Nothing else.
Zhou Yutang was unhappy with the Jewish man who represented NBC and wanted to take advantage of him.
Anyway, the program "The Voice" is very promising, and the other two TV stations are also strong.
During the day, I host remote video conferences and write scripts in my free time, or ask Liu Yifei to go out for dinner.
We spend this time together day and night.
A breakup is better than a newlywed, and the relationship heats up a lot.
Zhou Yutang discovered that Liu Yifei had a strange hobby.
That means watching horror movies in the middle of the night.
Just watch horror movies.
But she still had to turn off the sound before watching.
She even closed her eyes when she saw some crucial scenes of horror and horror.
Holding Zhou Yutang tightly, he completely belongs to the classic type who is both good and fun-loving.
"Do you call this watching a horror movie?"
Zhou Yutang hugged Liu Yifei and watched "Dead Silence" playing on the TV, which happened to be the classic Mary Shaw gaze.
This is the horror created by the atmosphere of the film.
Even if you don’t listen to the sound, it can still make people’s hair stand on end.
Liu Yifei let out a low cry and tried her best to get into his arms. Zhou Yutang laughed dumbly and said: "You have missed the most beautiful place."
He watched with great interest.
Wen Ziren is also a real talent.
The debut film "Saw" is a classic.
It only took 18 days to shoot and cost 1.2 million, but it earned 50 million US dollars in box office revenue, making a lot of money.
This "Dead Silence" can also stop children from crying.
Looking at the horrifying dolls, Zhou Yutang suddenly felt a slight movement in his heart. Watching the plot on the TV screen continue, he thought thoughtfully:
"Is there any way to make a horror movie?"
"Xiao Zhou, what did you say?"
Liu Yifei raised her head and blinked her watery eyes.
“I said, you are really my lucky lady.”
Zhou Yutang held the beautiful little face and kissed it gently, then excitedly picked up the phone and made a call to Zou Zhongyan.
Liu Yifei leaned in his arms and listened quietly to him talking about work.
"Mr. Zhou, you mean, you want to make a horror movie?"
"Yes."
Zhou Yutang gently combed Liu Yifei's silky hair with his fingers and smiled. Said: "We can use Golden Harvest's relationships and channels at New Line Company to set up a special horror film project here."
Golden Harvest Films and New Line Cinema have reached several cooperations as early as the last century.
When Jackie Chan broke into Hollywood with his work "Red Zone", it was released by New Line Cinema when it was released in North America.
In the 1990s, Golden Harvest's "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" grossed US$150 million at the North American box office, ranking fifth at the time. This also helped New Line Cinema transform from a small company making small- and medium-budget horror films in the 1980s. Become one of the most powerful production and distribution companies in Hollywood.
So Golden Harvest Films and New Line Cinema have a close relationship.
To some extent, Zhou Yutang also values the channel advantages of Jiahe Films.
People, relationships.
You cannot do anything without these two things, especially in the film and television industry.
It doesn’t mean that if you have a good script in your hand, you can make all the changes when you go to Hollywood, and several big companies will kneel down and lick you.
Discrimination here is still very serious.
But Zhou Yutang’s identity is different.
At this time, he was Jiahe's talker and inherited part of Zou Wenhuai's connections and resources.
To some extent.
He is on an equal footing with New Line.
You can be a chess player yourself.
Holding Liu Tianxian, Zhou Yutang said to Zou Zhongyan on the phone: "Sister Zou, help me make an appointment with Bob from New Line Company. I want to talk to him."
