The superstar starts from the termination of the contract

Chapter 1079 Is there something wrong?
This Chinese daughter-in-law's cooking skills are good, and a group of people ate very happily. Yang Long also experienced the devastation of cabbage a few days ago. It really made him feel very happy.

Lu Fan is not that particular about these things, no matter what, as long as he can fill his stomach, he is doing business in a foreign country, who cares about those appetites?
After dinner, Lu Fan and Yang Long followed Li Hua out to find a hotel. Originally, Lu Fan didn't need to go with him, but he also wanted to go for a walk to learn about the local situation.

Although Li Hua told Lu Fan not to be so troublesome, as long as they don't think the environment is difficult, it doesn't matter if they live in his house for half a year.

Lu Fan tried his best to refuse, saying that he was very embarrassed to come and disturb him today, and that friends belong to friends, but they should not cause trouble to his life.

In the end, Li Hua couldn't help it, so he could only accompany the two of them out for a walk, and find some suitable houses by the way.

Lu Fan had already made up his mind, so he rented Li Hua's supermarket, which happened to be located on the edge of the city's central district, and other things were more convenient.

There is also the hovercraft in the movie, which is said to be lent to Jackie Chan by the Queen of England. Now Lu Fan certainly does not have such a big face, and he will definitely buy one at his own expense or rent one by then.

These tasks have to be prepared in the early stage to avoid any accidents at that time, so the preparatory work for a film may be more cumbersome than during Lu Fan's filming.

But there is no need for Lu Fan to worry about these things at all. He brought a queen assistant director from Huaxia, as well as producers, supervisors, etc., who have cooperated with him several times.

Let them carry out the preparations in batches, and Lu Fan intends to start the machine as quickly as possible, just to take advantage of this time to let the actors get familiar with the script and have a simple understanding of their environment.

At the beginning of the discussion, an idea suddenly popped up in Lu Fan's head. Since his movie is about Kung Fu, and Li Hua happens to be a master of Wing Chun, and at the same time he is the owner of a supermarket, why? Why not let him play a cameo role?

Maybe when he can get it right, it can help his supermarket to carry out a big wave of publicity. In addition, it can also play a role in shaking the mountain and shaking the tiger in the face of those little gangsters who often come to make trouble.

Yang Long had already gone to the hotel according to the prompt, while Lu Fan expressed his thoughts directly: "Brother Li, the movie I want to make is an action movie, are you interested in showing your hands in the movie? For example, a few guest appearances character or something?"

Li Hua agreed without even thinking about it: "Okay, but I have a request, you must give me a certain role, I want to beat up those damned bastards!"

Lu Fan laughed loudly: "No problem!"

In fact, Lu Fan planned this way before. The main line of the whole movie revolves around robbing diamonds, resulting in large-scale fights.

And in the first half of the movie, a group of gangsters often come to harass the protagonist's uncle's supermarket, and this opportunity can just be used to teach them a lesson.

Finding a hotel to stay in New York is not difficult at all, not to mention that Yang Long had received instructions before, so it was easy to complete various procedures.

In addition to arranging for Li Hua to receive Lu Fan and the others, Xu Qing also made other preparations. Lu Fan will be supported by the local film and television company in the next filming and other processes.

Of course, the premise is that after the filming is completed, it must be handed over to their company for distribution.

This is an inevitable result. After all, Zhengming Entertainment is currently only operating in China, and all its contacts and resources are in China. When it comes to New York, it is really powerless.

Therefore, the production and distribution of films in North America and other countries can only be handed over to their local film and television companies.

It's just that the local film and television company hasn't come to matchmaking for the time being, so we can only disturb Li Hua first.

When they went back that night, Li Hua and his wife warmly entertained Lu Fan and the others again, expressing regret that they were about to leave.

After saying goodnight to everyone, Lu Fan and the others were about to fall asleep, but at this time the phone rang.

It was a WeChat call from Xu Qing. The time difference between New York and Huaxia is twelve hours. It should be daytime in Hongcheng at this time.

After Lu Fan connected to WeChat and briefly reported the situation here, Xu Qing revealed the intention of this time.

After she finished speaking in a few words, Lu Fan felt particularly surprised and surprised, and at the same time felt a little excited and excited in his heart.

Because Xu Qing told Lu Fan that Time Magazine suddenly contacted her, hoping to interview Lu Fan and become the cover character of the new issue.

When Lu Fan heard the news, he was silent for several seconds.

If it is said that he has always wanted to make himself out of China and be famous in the whole world, and has always been working hard for this goal, it is precisely because of this goal that he came to New York to shoot a movie at this moment.

So the invitation issued by Time Weekly at this moment is tantamount to proving one thing, that is, Lu Fan's previous efforts have all been rewarded.

Some people may not be particularly familiar with Time Weekly. To describe it in a simple sentence, it is the type that can keep up with this weekly magazine. It is definitely a leader in its own field and can attract the attention of foreigners.

Time Magazine has been published since [-]. It is one of the three major current affairs weekly magazines in the United States. It has a wide range of content, expressing opinions on international issues and tracking and reporting major international events.

Of course, this is just their official introduction, let's take a look, but one thing must be admitted, that is, no one who can be on the cover is an ordinary person.

Time has published several editions, including the main US edition, international editions, and European, Asian, and Latin American editions.

Generally speaking, Chinese people pay the most attention to the main version and the Asian version.

The caller at this moment is the main edition of Time Magazine, which has much more gold content and audience than other editions.

Before that, Lu Fan had actually paid attention to Time Magazine, and found that there were not many Chinese stars on the cover, which was more interesting. This time, Wang Wen, who came with him to make a movie, had also been on the cover of Time Magazine figure.

She is the first Chinese singer to receive this honor and the second Chinese star.

Before this, a certain international actor from Huaxia was also reported by Time Magazine, and the other party often cooperated with Zhang Hongfa.

The rest of the stars who appeared in Time Magazine are all Chinese superstars, and they are household names, and almost no one does not know.

According to incomplete statistics, there are only a dozen or so stars who can become the cover figures of Times so far.

The three places on both sides of the strait produce so many stars every year, and in the past few decades, only a dozen or so stars have appeared in Time Magazine. Such an honor can really be boasted for a lifetime.

In addition, there are outstanding people in various fields, who can be invited to be interviewed by them. In addition to saying something awesome, they can also prove one thing.

That is, these Chinese people have been recognized by the world. Although many foreigners may not accept this, this is the fact and cannot be changed.

The fact that Lu Fan was invited by the main page of Time Magazine is enough to show that foreigners have also noticed this young Chinese. This shows that a new star is rising and will definitely shine even brighter in the future.

From the moment Time Magazine contacted Xu Qing, Lu Fan's road to superstardom really started.

He suppressed his excitement, and asked Xu Qing: "Sister, so what is the situation? When will they come to interview?"

Xu Qing couldn't help laughing, and said: "Don't worry, if you are in China at this time, maybe it will take a few days to interview you, but you happen to be in the United States at this time, it will be much more convenient .

I didn't reject them. If there is no accident, maybe within a week, they will release a new issue of Time Magazine, and you will also be the cover character of the latest issue. "

Lu Fan calculated the time. Wasn't it the right time for the movie to start?

Then I can take advantage of this opportunity to promote my new movie well.

"Okay, let me ask, can they contact me by then?" Lu Fan chuckled, although he didn't care much about fame recently, because he had everything he should have, and he was a little immune.

But the interview with Time Magazine is different. He has always hoped to go out of China, become famous in the world, export domestic culture, and fulfill his mission. Now that Time Magazine can interview him, doesn’t it just speed up this progress? ?
I don't care about fame, but that doesn't mean fame isn't important!

Xu Qing couldn't help laughing again: "Are you a little too excited, causing you to be unable to think normally? I will definitely give them your contact information, and you are in New York. They really want to interview you. There must be a way."

"Hahaha, I'm a little excited." Lu Fan smiled embarrassedly.

"By the way, how long has it been since you were so happy? It seems that the movie has won billions of dollars at the box office, and I haven't seen you in such a mood." Seeing this state, Xu Qing couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

"Because I know that movies can earn billions at the box office, and it's normal to have no mood swings for things that can be predicted. Although I also know that Time Magazine will definitely interview me, I don't know when they will come. " Lu Fan said seriously, and got up in Versailles before he knew it.

Xu Qing: "..."

This damn sense of superiority!
"Okay, okay, it's getting late, you go to bed early, I'm going to work too.

Prepare yourself, now you can take care of yourself, and I don't need to take care of some things.

When they interview you, you will know what to say. "

"Okay sister, I've seen people with strong winds and waves, and they can't coax me." Lu Fan smiled, and now he really has such confidence.

After hanging up the phone, Lu Fan was still reminiscing about what he said just now. The interview on the main page of Time Magazine undoubtedly proved that Lu Fan's stardom has become more and more dazzling, and it is impossible to get the approval of these damn Americans. an easy task?
It's just that Lu Fan is a little confused now, that is, the interview with him by Time Magazine is because of music, movies, or because he defeated AlphaGo in the man-machine competition not long ago?

Although it is for foreigners to know, Lu Fan hopes that they will pay more attention to his works of art. After all, no matter how "non-professional" he is, he is just a singer and actor after all!
In the next few days, Lu Fan and the others were not idle either. After moving out of Li Hua's house, they started working on the movie.

Lu Fan didn't want to procrastinate, and went back as soon as possible after filming, because the film and television company that they connected with had already made some preparations before they came, so his speed was so fast.

The rampant hovercraft in the movie has already been leased, but Lu Fan secretly made preparations and asked the film and television company to contact the Queen of England to see if they could borrow her car.

In any case, there is nothing to lose if you ask one more question. What if the other party really agrees?

Lu Fan just wanted to reproduce the glory of "Red Fan District" more perfectly.

When talking in private, Lu Fan also secretly told Wang Wen that he was about to be interviewed by Time Weekly, but Wang Wen did not expect her to be very calm, she just let out an oh.

Lu Fan was stunned by this moment. He didn't mean to show off in front of Wang Wen. He mainly wanted to ask some details.

Seeing that Lu Fan didn't speak, Wang Wen explained: "I know what you mean, don't be nervous, they are ordinary people just like us, they can say what they want to say, and just don't answer if they don't want to answer. So simple."

Lu Fan gave a thumbs up after hearing this, thinking that it is no wonder Tianhou is liked by so many people, who can bear such a sassy personality!
As the first Chinese singer to appear on the cover of Time Magazine, with such an attitude, Lu Fan suddenly felt that his situation was small.

Isn't it Time Magazine?

The other party is also a human being, so what is there to worry about?

"Sister Wen, I thought I was enough for Versailles, but I didn't expect you to be more powerful than me." Lu Fan joked.

Wang Wen was eating fruit, but when she heard this, she suddenly put down the apple in her hand and said, "Correct me, I'm not Versailles. When I was interviewed by Time Magazine, I really didn't feel anything."

Lu Fan laughed loudly, and said in his heart that he had learned it.

However, the reason why Lu Fan attaches so much importance to the interviews of Time Magazine is not because he is adoring foreigners. He feels that it is very fortunate to be valued so much by Americans.

The main reason is that I want to use this magazine to open up my reputation, not that I think it is such a great thing to be interviewed by them-although in the eyes of many people, this is indeed a special honor.

If he really wanted to think this way, Lu Fan would not have defended China's reputation in front of foreigners several times, making some people hate him, a young man in China.

On this day, almost all aspects of the movie are almost ready, Lu Fan plans to warm up tomorrow and shoot the beginning to get everyone in the mood.

Unexpectedly, that night, a reporter from Time magazine found Lu Fan, hoping to interview Lu Fan in the next few days, because a new issue of the magazine is about to be released.

Lu Fan said on the spot that there was no problem. He would have time tomorrow morning, and told the other party that he hoped to end the interview early, and that he still had a new movie to shoot.

After learning this, the other party expressed their excitement and anticipation, because before inviting Lu Fan, they had done a detailed investigation. At this moment, Lu Fan's new movie "If there is love in the sky", which is currently being screened in Asia, is a phenomenon-level film. work.

This movie hasn't been released yet, so Lu Fan is going to shoot a new movie?
This kind of work efficiency made the reporter very interested in this young Chinese.

"Okay, no problem. We learned from your company that Lu Fan's production is currently in New York. How about we make an appointment tomorrow?"

"Yes." Lu Fan reported the address of Li Hua's supermarket, doing so to help this compatriot do publicity.

What if, with the blessing of fame, the little gangsters dare not come to harass easily, and the business will be so good?
After the two made an agreement, they just hung up the phone. At this time, the crew didn't know that Lu Fan was about to be interviewed by Time Magazine, and everyone was looking forward to the first scene tomorrow.

Although Lu Fan didn't tell them clearly, from all aspects they have already noticed that Lu Fan's ambition this time is not small. It is very likely that this movie has special significance for their careers.

The next day, everyone came to the supermarket happily. After Tong Biao and Lu Fan finished filming the scene of picking up the airport, the focus of the next scene revolved around the supermarket.

Everyone thought that Lu Fan would go to the airport. Unexpectedly, Lu Fan also came to the supermarket early in the morning. Everyone felt a little strange, because Lu Fan agreed last night that he would go directly to the airport to avoid delaying time.

Lin Fanghua thought for a while, and couldn't help asking: "Director Lu, didn't you say that the first scene will be filmed at the airport with Uncle Tong?"

Lu Fan replied: "Yes, but I have something to do this morning, so I want to delay everyone for a while."

"Oh!" Lin Fanghua nodded, not feeling very puzzled by this. Director Lu is a busy man, so it is normal to be delayed.

At this time, Wang Wen walked to Lu Fan's side and asked in a low voice, "Do you want to interview today?"

"Yeah!" Lu Fan nodded, "I don't have anywhere else to go, so I'll just accept their interview here."

"It's the same everywhere." Wang Wen stepped aside and made a final familiarization with the script.

Not long after, the reporters interviewed by Time magazine came over. When Lu Fan was quite surprised, besides two Americans, there seemed to be a Chinese.

It is estimated that they are afraid of the inconvenience of language communication between the two parties, so they specially invited a translator.

It seems that the other party still didn't investigate himself carefully. Don't they know that I graduated from the Department of Foreign Languages?
The other party came to Yuanhua Supermarket, and after explaining his identity, he communicated with Lu Fan.

It was only then that everyone suddenly realized what Lu Fan meant when he said something...

This is something?
