I become a big star after I sleep

Chapter 249 New Movie

The empty room, the doors and windows were closed, and even the curtains were drawn.

It was broad daylight, but the room was as dark as night.

Only the light of the TV kept flickering, illuminating the face of the man on the sofa flickering on and off.

News channels are still broadcasting domestic and foreign news.

Qin Muchu looked at the time, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.

Then... it shouldn't happen.

The heart that had been beating fiercely for almost a day finally showed signs of calming down.

At this moment, the host's voice suddenly sounded on the TV.

"Temporarily insert a piece of news..."

Qin Muchu's heart suddenly twitched, and he stood up from the sofa in an instant, staring at the TV.

"At 5.8:[-] this afternoon, there were tremors in many places in central Sichuan. According to the announcement issued by the earthquake bureau afterwards, it was caused by a slight earthquake. The magnitude of the earthquake in the epicenter area reached magnitude [-], and there were no casualties.

However, there have been large-scale cracks in the houses, and the relevant departments have considered safety..."

"call……"

Qin Muchu seemed to have been fished out of the water. A short report had already made him drenched in sweat.

Leaning on the sofa, panting heavily, the beating of the heart can be clearly heard.

"Fortunately..."

He looked at the ceiling blankly and muttered, and suddenly laughed while talking.

……

On May 5, Yanjing time, a Minghang passenger plane that took off from Los Angeles slowly landed at Yanjing Airport.

"It's cooler than I thought it would be."

The blond woman laughed at herself.

In the bustling airport, there are many people coming and going with suitcases. Although it is not the peak period of the airport, it has absolutely nothing to do with the "desert" in the woman's mouth.

But the few people in the company nodded when they heard the woman's words.

Compared with the many fans who came to the airport to pick them up when they promoted the movie in various cities in the United States, Yanjing Airport is indeed deserted.

"Jon, did you not announce our flight information?" The woman asked, looking at the fat man beside her.

"It's announced, maybe because of the time difference, the news hasn't come yet?"

The fat man gave a reason that even he couldn't believe, and then pointed to the man with the mustache:

"It's entirely Downey's fault. It's all because he didn't perform well enough. Otherwise, there should be at least one fan to pick us up, so that we won't be so embarrassed."

Donnie didn't want to take the blame, so he glanced around, and finally saw a man holding a sign at the pick-up area.

"There was indeed a fan who came to pick him up, and he must be a fan of Iron Man, it has nothing to do with you."

Downey made a pun and didn't know whether he meant "Iron Man" or "Iron Man".

Just like that, several main creative members of the "Iron Man" crew were having fun, joking with each other all the way to the person who picked up the plane.

……

Yida Plaza, the venue on the first floor of the building.

This floor is a floor specially rented out to others to hold some activities, usually mostly lectures and publicity meetings.

A huge poster stands at the entrance of the venue, the words "Iron Man" are very clear, and there is a slogan on the top of the poster-comparable to "Transformers" and "Spiderman", a great contribution to superheroes.

A complete "touch porcelain" marketing method.

inside the venue.

Liu Xiqian is wearing a black dress, and her hairstyle is also designed, slightly wavy and draped over her shoulders, which can be described as dazzling.

And Qin Muchu wears a T-shirt on the upper body and shorts on the lower body, casual at home.

Originally, he didn't think there was anything inappropriate about his body, until he stood with Liu Xiqian.

It's just to participate in a film event promotion meeting, why are you dressed so formally?And it's not the movie I starred in, it's just a cameo.

Liu Xiqian also felt Qin Muchu's gaze, and after taking a look at his attire, she understood:

"You don't dress up at all, do you?*
"Ugly people need to dress up."

Qin Muchu withdrew his gaze, and decided to sit a little further away from Liu Xiqian later.

Why didn't I find out that this little girl was so curvy before, and she didn't get paid to participate in the "Iron Man" promotional activities, so why did she work so hard?
Liu Xiqian gritted her teeth, and suddenly smiled:
"Ugly people need to dress up, so you should dress up even more?"

After finishing speaking, he looked down at Qin Muchu with a triumphant look.

Qin Muchu looked at Liu Xiqian in surprise, she shouldn't be able to react to this.

"Have you started to grow your brain recently?"

"Ha ha."

Sister Shenxian snorted arrogantly, then turned her head and ignored Qin Muchu.

Talking too much is bound to lose, and finally took advantage of it, and never gave Qin Muchu a chance to fight back.

……

The promotional activity of "Iron Man" has invited a lot of media, after all, it is a Hollywood blockbuster, and the lead actor even went to China to promote it in person, which is quite a gimmick.

The "Iron Man" movie is also considered hot in China, with a box office of more than 9000 million in more than half a month after its release. Although there is a downward trend now, it is definitely not a problem to break through [-] million.

If it is a Chinese movie, it will definitely be a big hit. After all, in this era, any domestic movie with a box office of over [-] million is considered big news.

But this result is not excellent in Hollywood blockbusters, it can only be regarded as quite satisfactory.

The audience's impression of a movie actor is only to know that he acted in this movie, which belongs to the level of calling out his role name when seeing an actor.

Don't know the actor's real name.

Fortunately, this Yida Plaza is near the university town. After contracting this event, Yida specially printed and distributed a leaflet to each university.

"At seven o'clock on Saturday night, the main creative team of "Iron Man" will take you to understand the story behind the movie. Qin Muchu and Liu Xiqian will participate together. Admission is by movie ticket stubs, and the deadline is [-]. Venue: xxxx"

Now, the college students who have nothing to do and want to watch celebrities can't sit still immediately. They can watch celebrities for free if they are close.

Some were originally not interested in the "Iron Man" movie, but they were Liu Xiqian's fans, and they were willing to spend the price of a movie ticket to see their idol, which also slightly boosted the movie's box office.

……

Since it is a publicity event, it is natural to have a host.

The host was sent by the six princesses, because China Film is responsible for all imported films, and they are regarded as the Chinese producers of "Iron Man".

Considering that the people who came to promote the film this time are all Americans, Princess Six specially arranged for a host with good English to facilitate communication and also serve as a translator.

But at the very beginning of the activity, the self-introduction of the protagonist Downey let them know that they were too worried.

"Hi everyone, my name is Robert Downey, and I am the actor who plays Iron Man Tony Stark in the movie."

Downey confidently spoke his strange Chinese dialect.

Still, it's surprising enough.

You can see one thing or two from the restless audience and media in the audience.

The host thought that Downey specially practiced this passage of Chinese for the promotion of the Celestial Dynasty, and praised in feigned surprise:
"You speak Chinese really well."

But she spoke Chinese, and when she was about to translate it in English, she heard Downey reply:

"I still have a lot to learn."

Not only did he learn Chinese, he even learned the modesty of the people of the Celestial Dynasty!

The host was really surprised this time, and even forgot to continue introducing the rest of the crew.

"How long have you been studying Chinese?"

"For about seven months, practice at least three hours a day." Downey responded with a smile.

This is one of the things he is most proud of. After all, Chinese is recognized as the most difficult language in the world to learn, and it took him only seven months to communicate on a daily basis.

"It's great, I have difficulty learning English for seven months. So why do you learn Chinese? Is it a personal hobby?"

"Because of a person, I think I should communicate with him in Chinese..."

The host had already imagined a romantic story in his mind, and he was not the only one who had the same gossip idea as her, and everyone looked at the stage.

Donnie didn't show off. He didn't need the host to ask, he explained who that person was.

He pointed his finger down the stage,
"That person is him!"

At this time, I saw the limitations of Chinese. Compared with English, it can't tell whether the "he" is a man or a woman.

So when the audience turned their attention to the place Tang Ni pointed at, they saw Qin Muchu and Liu Xiqian who looked dazed.

And Qin Muchu was subconsciously ignored, and everyone was looking at Liu Xiqian.

Looking around, is there any story between these two people?
But the age difference is too much...

The eyes of the media are about to shine.

Big news!big news!

How should the headline be written to express the shock of the news?

It seems that as long as it is written according to the truth, it will explode!
Fortunately, the host asked:
"Are you talking about Liu Xiqian or Qin Muchu?"

"Of course it's Qin Muchu, his story with me..."

……

We have no stories!

Offstage, Qin Muchu rubbed his temples.

You can just say that you like Chinese culture, and it’s easy to make money.

Why do you have to speak so ambiguously.

"I won't tell Mimi about you and Downey."

Suddenly, Liu Xiqian next to him poked Qin Muchu, her face full of seriousness.

Qin Muchu squinted at her.

Sure enough, within two seconds, Liu Xiqian couldn't hold back her serious expression. She patted Qin Muchu's shoulder and smirked "goose goose goose".

……

The campaign was a success, beyond all expectations.

Anyone who follows the entertainment industry knows that Iron Man is a foreigner who can speak Chinese, which makes everyone's favorability for him instantly full.

Originally, he wanted to use the fame of Qin Muchu and Liu Xiqian to promote the movie, but Downey got out of the circle by himself.

In the past two days, the popularity has been overwhelming, and he has become one of the most impressive European and American actors in China.

There is a big gap with Xiao Lizi, but it is almost the same as Spiderman Tobey Maguire, or even surpassed.

This year also happened to be the Olympic year. When opening the door to welcome guests, a foreign star like Downey who can speak Chinese was naturally classified as a good citizen.

There is also the official media that deliberately reported that Downey is fluent in Chinese, and the attitude is biased towards the positive.

……

Inside the hotel box.

"Fuck, it's not me, shit! The accent must be placed in the back, and the emotion must be strong.

For example, you can say that when you see the torch held by the Statue of Liberty turn into ice cream, and so on that make you shocked and unbelievable. "

When Qin Muchu said this, Downey understood instantly.

"Fuck! F*ck!"

He kept repeating, consolidating exercises, and even had the idea of ​​taking notes.

After a while, after confirming that he had memorized the word, Downey nodded in satisfaction:

"Qin, you are such a good teacher, you use metaphors so well, I remembered this word right away, shit!"

Qin Muchu did not accept the honor, shook his head and said:
"Don't tell people that these things are taught by me in the future."

"why?"

Why else, because I want face.

Before Qin Muchu could make up a lie, Downey figured out the reason by himself:
"I understand. People in the Celestial Dynasty are always very humble and don't want to show off."

What else could Qin Muchu say, and immediately gave a thumbs up:
"Donnie, you are getting more and more familiar with the Chinese culture."

"Haha."

Downey smiled happily and raised his glass to Qin Muchu.

Qin Muchu also clinked glasses with him.

What was in the glasses of both of them was not wine, but fruit juice.

After the "Iron Man" movie promotional event, Downey did not return to the United States with the crew.

The business over there is over. He played in Tianchao for two days to give himself a vacation.

As the host, Qin Muchu naturally couldn't ignore it. After all, this uncle learned a language because of himself. In the past two days, Donnie walked around Yanjing and tasted the authentic Chinese food.

The former is okay, the scenery of different cultural styles only brings a momentary amazement, and just two days can't let Downey understand the profound historical background.

But the impact brought by the latter food is direct and unforgettable. From the fact that Donnie's stomach has not deflated in the past two days, it can be seen how much he loves Chinese food.

Especially sweet and sour pork ribs, sweet mouth-watering braised pork and so on.

It seems that Americans have a sweet tooth.

After I ate it in the restaurant, I kept asking how it was made, and refused to give up until I learned it.

Qin Muchu was a little worried that if Downey ate like this, he would not be able to wear Iron Man's armor.

"Qin, I had a lot of fun in Tianzhao these two days, thank you so much." Downey said.

This meal was his farewell dinner, and he was going back to the United States tonight.

"You also know my past, since [-]... I don't know what it's called here, anyway, it's a place for detoxification. After I got out of there, my first job was to act in MV, that's the kind..."

Downey didn't seem to know how to express it.

"You just need to speak English." Qin Muchu smiled.

"OK."

Speaking of English, Downey's expression became coherent at once:
"I played a role in a singer's MV, pretending to sing and lip-syncing. At that time, such opportunities were rare. I was doing similar things for several years... until I met "Iron Man" .”

He looked at Qin Muchu:

"The first time I saw this role, I felt that this role was born for me. I must be able to play it well. I did all the preparations I could do, went to the audition, and passed...

The moment I learned the result, I cried, really, I hugged my wife and cried..."

"Wait a minute, you've become like this and still have a wife?" Qin Muchu was incredulous.

"..."

Downey had been brewing for a long time, and the emotion that was about to explode suddenly stagnated.

That feeling is like taking off the pants, which are so hard that they can't be hardened, and as a result, a shiver is over, and it's over...

He couldn't help but patted the table and shouted out the words he just learned:

"Fuck!"

"Cough cough."

Qin Muchu also knew that his interruption was inappropriate, but he was really shocked just now
"It's not very appropriate to use shit at this time. Usually, you have to add two words at the end... OK, OK, you continue."

Donnie opened his mouth, wanting to continue the feeling he had just had.

But if this kind of thing is gone, you have to rest for a while before you can have it again, and this has to be in good health.

In the end he shook his head helplessly:
"Shet, I mean thank you for supporting me in Iron Man. I know it's hypocritical to say that, but it's true. You gave me my second life as an actor."

"So I'm Howard Stark?"

Downey just felt a little bit broken up again, this time he was not excited, but smiled wryly:
"You really don't give people a chance to be moved."

Standing up, solemnly said:

"You are a director and I am an actor. I hope that we will have the opportunity to cooperate in the future. With your director ability and my acting skills, we will definitely be popular all over the world and sweep the Oscars... Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to tear you apart scar."

As he spoke, Downey himself laughed.

Qin Muchu seriously suspected that Downey said so much just to pave the way for the last sentence.

He can do such a bad thing.

"If there is such a day, you will have to suffer from old age."

……

For the past two days, Qin Muchu was acting as a tour guide for Tang Ni, but Yang Mi didn't accompany her. She was honestly rejected by her parents at home.

Qin Muchu was surprised by his empathy.

"He is helping you make money, hundreds of millions of dollars, so much money, you can send him to sleep."

Looking at his girlfriend whose eyes were shaped like money, Qin Muchu stretched out his hand to break her arms around his neck.

I'm not familiar with it, so don't stick it so tightly.

"Okay, okay, I'm kidding, I definitely can't send you to sleep with him."

Yang Mi smiled and hugged Qin Muchu tightly without letting go, and kissed her in a compensatory way.

Seeing that Yang Mi performed well just now, Qin Muchu didn't bother with her anymore and asked:
"When will your "Xian San" be finished?"

"What's the matter? You miss me before you leave." Yang Mi grinned.

"Don't make trouble, I'm almost finished writing the script, you can come and shoot when you have time, I invested a lot in this movie."

Qin Muchu didn't tease Yang Mi.With a straight face.

Seeing this, Yang Mi also became serious:
"How big is it?"

"Bigger than you."

"Ok?"

Yang Mi was stunned for a moment, and quickly realized that she overwhelmed Qin Muchu,

"Tell me not to make trouble, you make trouble yourself!"

"Just kidding, kidding, I'm serious, probably a hundred million dollars."

"...Still fighting with Miss Mi, right? Look!"

Half an hour later, Yang Mi was "beaten" to the point of throwing up her armor and begging for mercy, Qin Muchu finally died down.

The two leaned against the head of the bed.

"I'm serious, it's a hundred million dollars."

Qin Muchu has not forgotten the reason why the two "fighted" and emphasized it again.

"Really?"

Yang Mi couldn't believe it,

"Five centimeters shorter!"

Qin Muchu did some calculations, and five centimeters shorter is enough, not to mention he didn't lie.

"Well, [-] million US dollars is just a preliminary estimate. It may be more than... Tear up, Yang Xiaomi, why are you pinching me?"

The pain from his waist made Qin Muchu gasp, and looked at the culprit angrily.

"I want to see if it's a dream, or if you're talking nonsense."

Yang Mi also knew that she was playing hard, and changed from pinching to rubbing.

Suddenly she was worried again:

"But such a large investment, how do you recover the cost?"

"Take the international route, the main battlefield is in North America."

Since Qin Muchu decided to make a film, he also considered the issue of paying back the money.

"North America? It's hard for Chinese movies to get a high box office over there. If you want to get back the cost of 2 million US dollars, then you have to get at least [-] million box office in North America..."

It's not that Yang Mi doesn't believe in her boyfriend's ability, but some things can become reality without belief.

The reality is that it is difficult for Chinese-language films to survive in North America. No matter how good the filming is, language is a major obstacle.

Qin Muchu didn't speak.

The problem Yang Mi mentioned is also a problem he has been struggling with recently.

There is a solution, but he is not very willing to do it...

(Sorry, I have something to do today, I owe two chapters, and I will try my best to pay it back)
