the longest dream

Chapter 541 Pingjing people in New York
Early May.

After returning from the Brown family fundraising dinner, Zhou Yanyan was ready to go back to Asia first.

Obviously, she wasn't very happy.

Looking at the pouting girl packing her luggage, Qi Juan smiled and asked Zhang Qing, "Do you have to go there now?"

Zhang Qing shrugged and said: "There is no way, the whole family is waiting for us Yanyan to make money to support the family."

Zhou Yanyan raised her head and wrinkled her nose at him and made a face: I hate you!
Zhao Qiang has already gone to Harvard to study for an MBA, which cost a lot of money, and there is also a letter of introduction from the boss of IBM.

Zhang's parents, Zhang's mother, and the family members of the Sun family took their children, nannies, security guards, and medical staff to the Brook River Ranch in Montana for vacation.

The old pediatric doctor at the Affiliated Hospital of Zhendan University is simply not too happy, living with this family is called nourishing...

There are only three of them in the house, and the life was extremely comfortable and enjoyable.

Or watching movies, or reading, or singing, or playing cards, or having sex...

In short, it has become a paradise on earth.

But this man is cold-blooded and ruthless, and wants to drive her back to Asia to work.

Qi Juan condemned on her behalf: "You said that you released an English record and went back to Asia to promote it. Isn't it an enemy?"

Zhou Yanyan echoed: "That's right!"

Zhang Qing said with a smile: "No way, the pure Chinese album can't be entered. It happens that the English album has five songs in one record, and the Asian release can put in another five songs, with some private goods. Like Japan and South Korea, only Release Chinese albums, the audience is too small, Singapore and Malaysia are also. Release two English albums, each with five Chinese songs, after two years of training, you will be able to cultivate a group of Chinese song listeners. Movies are getting easier and easier. Yue Linger has been running for a few months, and Yanyan will go to Pingping again. Yanyan's schedule is much faster, and it only takes one month."

Zhou Yanyan had no choice but to continue cleaning up.

Qi Juan smiled and said, "Why didn't you release English records at the end of summer?"

Zhang Qing laughed and said: "So, men and women are not equal. Xia Mo is too handsome, too in line with the aesthetics of Asians. Those girls are crazy, and they buy his peripherals without him asking." I feel terrified that the rich wives spend money to support them, and if they release an English record, I'm afraid that European and American nymphomaniacs will also pounce on them, and the security of 50 people may not be enough."

Don't look at Zhou Yanyan as beautiful as this, but the market appeal is actually not half as good as that of late summer, so where is the reason?
In fact, if you think about it, you know that when you are young, boys spend money lavishly, how can it compare to girls who can save money?

Older men have regained their sanity. No matter how beautiful they are, they can't touch them. Who would be willing to spend a lot of money?

Women are different, mother fans are even more terrifying.

Nowadays, in order to chase stars, there are many Asian women who start to learn Chinese in their [-]s and [-]s, down to five or six years old.

He doesn't sing popular songs at the end of summer, he has a long history in his family and can sing some ditties from the capital.

Good guy, the fans can't speak Chinese yet, the Beijing accent and Beijing rhyme are so authentic...

It can be regarded as an alternative cultural export.

After Zhou Yanyan finished cleaning up, the three of them went outside to sit on the lounge chairs on the veranda, watching the stars and chatting.

Qi Juan said: "In the end, our foundation is too weak, and there are too few people who can use it."

Zhou Yanyan smiled and said: "It's okay, I can't really lie at home and do nothing, then I won't be a lazy woman."

Zhang Qing smiled lightly, put his hands behind his head, and said: "Don't worry, it won't take long, we have a group of loyal, reliable, capable newcomers, you can use them with confidence. By then, the whole family will be on holiday every day !"

Qi Juan didn't believe it, but Zhou Yanyan brightened her eyes and said, "Really?"

Qi Juan asked suspiciously: "Where did the manpower come from? Li Tie and the others are loyal and reliable, but they can't manage the enterprise."

Zhang Qing said inscrutablely: "Our Du Juan Group has younger soldiers."

Qi Juan was startled when she heard the words, her eyes lit up, and she suddenly said: "You mean the children's school?" But she said angrily: "It will have to wait until the year of the monkey?"

Zhang Qing smiled proudly: "Actually, it won't take a few years. Batch after batch of soldiers will graduate. It is said that it takes ten years to cultivate trees, and a hundred years to educate people. We don't need a hundred years, but only ten years. He has a lot of centripetal force for the group. Talent will come out wave after wave.

Moreover, four years ago, I began to sponsor a group of impoverished senior high school graduates who could not afford to go to school to continue their studies.And the foundation will also establish a record file for them, and they need to get the report card to receive the tuition fee for the second year.

Most of this group of students have good character, endure hardships and stand hard work, and work hard.Even if only one-third of the initial few hundred graduates are willing to work for Dujuan, it is a precious asset.What's more, the number of people who intend to sign up to join Du Juan has reached two-thirds.

Sister Zhao once told me that the larger hills in our interior are all acquired.It cannot be said that it is a loose sand, but the centripetal force is indeed not strong.After a long time, I'm afraid something will go wrong.I told her it didn't matter, and I'll see it in a few years.

Starting from this year, the situation of the group will only get better year by year. "

Qi Juan looked at Zhang Qing with wide eyes, and said, "Four years ago, you are today?"

Zhou Yanyan suddenly said happily: "Yes! Even if he would sleep with you when he arrived four years ago, you still have to give him two sons!"

Qi Juan moved her hands, "pa pa pa pa" a few times, Zhou Yanyan smiled sharply and moved to the side.

Zhang Qing said with a smile: "I'm not a god, how can I count to today... At the beginning, I really only wanted to do some good deeds."

Qi Juan remembered it, and said in horror: "The last time I attended Zhao Qiang's meeting, Liu Yan, the senior manager of her subordinate store department in charge of the surrounding stores, proudly said that Du Juan's stores in various provinces have never encountered hooligans. Make things difficult, and you won’t encounter those nasty things of local protectionism. I was still curious at the time, how Du Juan broke this situation. Tianhong has been in business for so many years, and it is still difficult to break into some provinces. I only found out after asking Zhao Qiang Before Du Juan started his business, you funded more than 400 family members of martyrs who died heroically in the investigation of drugs every year. Later, you simply provided jobs for their widows. Two years ago, this scope was expanded to include all security-related departments who died on duty family of martyrs."

Zhang Qing said solemnly: "I can say with conscience and responsibility that when doing these things, there is no utilitarianism."

Qi Juan was furious, "papapa", and scolded: "What the hell are you touching your own conscience, why are you touching the gorgeous one?"

Amidst Zhou Yanyan's startled laughter, Zhang Qing carried Qi Juan on his shoulders and rushed back to the bedroom.

Zhou Yanyan took revenge from behind, slapping Qi Juan's big buttocks: Papapa!

……

"This is it..."

Outside the gate of the Bauhinia Ranch, two thieves looked around. If they didn't have Chinese faces, they would have been warned by security with guns.

The guard stepped forward and asked, "What are you two doing?"

"Hey! It really is our Chinese man. Brother, my name is Niu Li, this is Wang Lun, come to see Lord Qing!"

Niu Li is ugly and has buck teeth, but he is very good at talking.

Even facing the guard, he bowed, unlike the little round face next to him, who didn't look straight at people.

The guard smiled and said, "Please wait a moment." Then he picked up the walkie-talkie and reported inside.

After 3 minutes, the two were allowed to enter.

After entering the door, I saw flowers blooming all the way, horses grazing leisurely on the lawn, cats, rabbits and puppies chasing and frolicking, the lake not far away was sparkling, and a small boat was flicking lightly.

Wang Lun said sourly: "You really know how to enjoy it!"

Niu Liman sighed with emotion, and said: "Even if you only believe [-]% of the letter that broke out from Wanwan, the money this master earns can destroy me. Tsk!"

But maybe he felt that the eyes of the person next to him were not right, so he hurriedly added: "Lord Lun, you are the Big Dipper I saw when I looked up, but this one, he is a god!"

Wang Lun curled his lips and wanted to refute a few words, but he couldn't think of how to scold him, so he could only say: "Grandma! What is money, money is stinking shit!"

Niu Li: "..."

"Hahaha!"

In the room, Zhang Qing was watching "Friends" on Phoenix TV.

This drama has caused quite a stir in the United States. The five major TV networks have already contacted Phoenix TV, but at present they only want to buy out "Friends", instead of pulling nearly a hundred TV stations into the network and spending advertising money to Take a share.

Of course not, Zhang Qing is not in a hurry, the conditions will only get better as the time progresses.

Don't forget, he has ten seasons of "Friends" in his hands, and he doesn't talk about martial arts at all...

And when the variety show "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" that is being prepared starts broadcasting, the situation will be even more different.

"Hey, Master Qing, you are really relaxing, and you still watch TV?"

Niu Li greeted him very familiarly.

Zhang Qing looked up at the two, pointed to the sofa on one side, and said, "Sit down and watch together."

Niu Li and Wang Lun patiently watched with them, and the more they watched, the more interesting they became. After watching an episode, Niu Li thought about it: "This scene is really well done. It's a bit like "People in Hutong". It's about daily life. Funny. It seems that humor, down-to-earth and close to life, can also work in the United States."

Zhang Qing laughed and said: "That's a good summary, will you continue to make this kind of film and television?"

This is what Niu Li was waiting for, and immediately began to complain: "Master Qing, do you think we can't make such a film? Is the humor of our Pingjing men not as good as theirs? Keka is dead, wipe the edge I'm going to kill you! Look at other people's photos, sex, men and women jokes, come here casually. In this life, isn't ordinary people's daily life just such vulgar jokes? Who lives like a news broadcast all day long? ? But they just don’t allow us to shoot like this, what can we do?”

Zhang Qing was obedient and smiled, "The movie was banned? Let me tell you why you two came here."

Wang Lun scolded: "That group of stinky shit, they said it was okay when the project was approved, but they didn't release it after filming, saying it was because the script liked to talk about provocative, chasing, and strong women, and repeatedly chewed on the sex and desire between men and women. Improper emotions. Saying that we expose ugliness without flogging ugliness violates socially recognized moral standards of values ​​and misleads the public's aesthetic taste. Isn't this fucking nonsense? A man has to educate the audience about good and evil when making a movie Right or wrong? How old am I?"

Zhang Qing smiled and said, "Have you brought the notebook?"

Niu Li hurriedly took out a script, and Zhang Qing flipped through it for 10 minutes, and then said with a smile: "The story is old-fashioned, but delicate and true. Holding your hand is like holding your left hand and holding your right hand. It will hurt if you cut it down... When you are young, you have a heart but no courage. When you are old, you have all the heart and courage, and the thief is gone. Haha, not bad. Your project is a bit unjust. Okay, go back Wait for the notification. I’ll make a phone call later. However, don’t expect too much for the box office. Don’t think about it in other places, let alone Hong Kong Island and Nanyang. It’s basically difficult to guarantee the box office after crossing the Yangtze River. But I believe, This is a good movie with heart, you can go to it."

Niu Li was overjoyed when he heard the words, and hurriedly said: "Oh, thank you! Master Qing, Dujuan Films is the investor of this movie. I'm afraid I won't get it, or if I lose money, I'll have no face to see you!"

Zhang Qing shook his head and said: "That's not the case. You'd better not take these things too seriously. Basically, good works will not lose money. Even if they lose money, Dujuan Pictures will pay for it. Director Niu, you are a talented person. People. Zhou Cheng and Liu Mingyuan are not as talented as you, especially in filming this kind of down-to-earth and close-to-life movies. If you shoot this type to the extreme, you are the king in this field. There is no need to get together to shoot those blockbuster."

Niu Li's face changed slightly when he heard the words, and he smiled a little embarrassedly, and said, "Master Qing, you are flattering me. It's just... how should I put it, I actually want to take a picture of different types..."

Zhang Qing laughed and said: "It doesn't matter, I was just a suggestion just now. As long as you are serious about making films, you can shoot any genre, and you can try it. The premise is that you really put your heart into it, not just for making money. I believe that you The director will cherish his reputation."

Niu Li stood up excitedly, and said repeatedly: "That must be that must!"

Wang Lun squinted at Zhang Qing, and said with a smile, "Hey, you can still watch movies like these three melons and two dates?"

Zhang Qing chuckled, pointed to the TV and said, "I wrote the drama just now."

Wang Lun: "..."

Zhang Qing said again: "I also invested."

Just as Niu Li said "Yo", Zhang Qing said again: "This TV station is also mine."

Niu Li: "..."

Wang Lun stared at Zhang Qing for a while, then laughed and said, "You were forced to pretend, and you really did! Hey, so in the future, my brothers will make TV series, and they will be shown in the United States?"

Niu Li was short of breath. Not everyone is like Zhang Qing. There is a parallel world for comparison, and he knows what will happen in the next 20 years.

Right now, America is heaven!
Being able to move the work to the United States and let the common people see and see it is a symbol of getting ahead, and it is a success!

If you brag to the outside world, it can also make a loud noise!
Zhang Qing said with a smile: "Of course, you can learn about the American TV drama system. If you want, you can shoot according to the rules, and the TV station can buy it at that time. But I think you can't even serve the population of more than one billion domestically. I just want to go to the United States to serve those Chinese Americans, is it too much?"

Niu Li rubbed his head and said with a chuckle: "Try, try! Just make one... "Pingjing People in America", how about it?"

Zhang Qing said with a smile: "In the United States, the scope is too broad, it is not specific, why not call it "Pingjing People in New York"."

Wang Renqi said: "This is Los Angeles, why is it New York?"

Zhang Qingdao: "New York is more representative."

Niu Li repeatedly echoed: "Yes, yes, it's typical there. The goddess statue is there, and people can tell it's the United States at a glance. It's good in New York, it's good in New York!"

Zhang Qing said with a smile: "Do it with your heart. You can arrange to come to the United States to collect stories and see what the real United States is like. The budget should be relaxed, but we must produce high-quality dramas."

Niu Li's eyes lit up and said, "Relax, I will never let down your trust!"
