Chapter 637 [63] Bugatti Veyron!

May 2006, 5, Los Angeles International Airport.

Chen Yu and Liu Yifei had just gotten into the business car that picked them up at the airport when Mazen, who was sitting in the passenger seat, threw the notice for the next half month at him.

"Boss, this is your schedule for the next half month!"

"..."

Chen Yu shook his head and took it. Liu Yifei next to him also came over.

After just one look, Liu Yifei was a little shocked.

It was then that she realized the difference between the global release of Hollywood films and the premieres of other domestic films.

First of all, his market is global.

So there were premieres in several major cities.

Flying all over the world, and the schedule is very tight. Except for taking a private plane, civil aviation simply does not have time to arrange such a tight schedule.

Fortunately, Paramount provided a private jet.

Tomorrow is the premiere in Los Angeles, and then we have to go to Manhattan, New York, for a three-day American road show, and then we have to fly to Rome. After that, there will be another three days of European travel, including Rome, the filming location of "Mission Impossible 3", as well as Paris and London.

Asia is the focus of this announcement, which is scheduled for four days. Considering the high box office of "Mission: Impossible 2" in Japan and South Korea, and Chen Yu's influence in these two countries, it will take a total of two days.

For China, including Taiwan, Hong Kong, and several cities in the mainland, it also takes 2 days.

Next up is Australia, Brazil... and then flying back to Hollywood.

It took a total of half a month, and the release time of "Mission Impossible 3" was almost arranged according to this premiere.

It will be officially released worldwide on May 5th.

North America is the first, and other countries are also scheduling their release dates in the next week. China's release date is May 5rd. Although it is not in the summer vacation, Chen Yu's first Hollywood film has already created enough hype.

Almost before the release, Chen Yu, Tom Cruise and other main creators will come to Shanghai.

However, this schedule is actually quite awkward. On May 5, there is also a Hollywood blockbuster scheduled to be released in the mainland - "The Da Vinci Code". There should be some choices in the corresponding screening schedule, and domestic films have to give way to these two blockbusters.

Many films will definitely be released during the summer vacation. In fact, there are quite a few Hollywood blockbusters in China this summer.

For this reason, Paramount and China Film have synchronized their release schedules globally. In fact, pirated resources are rampant in China. With the increasing popularity of the Internet, the resources of many movies have been covered by the entire network within half a month.

This is also one of the factors that China Film Group Corporation considers. It does not mean that everyone will go to the cinema to support the movie starring Chen Yu. That is if there is no piracy. If there is piracy, they will definitely download the resource as soon as possible.

The Chinese people’s enthusiasm for watching movies has not yet reached the point where they can watch movies at will, and the nearby cinemas are not convenient.

This is caused by many reasons.

After weighing the pros and cons, based on Chen Yu's current popularity and box office appeal, China Film believes that even if it is not released during the summer vacation, it should still have a very good box office. So this is another test of Chen Yu's ability to sell tickets at any time.

In fact, Chen Yu also wanted to try it.

Outside of the special schedule, how many viewers would be willing to go to the cinema? !
However, with factors like Hollywood marketing, Tom Cruise, etc., it shouldn't be much different from the summer vacation release. Currently, China is very keen on Hollywood blockbusters, and with Chen Yu starring in the lead role, the bottom line of the box office is actually in the billions.

This is the minimum. Even for bad Hollywood movies, there are mainland audiences willing to pay for them.

Of course, it is the same all over the world right now, Hollywood culture is impacting all parts of the world.

"Oh, by the way, Boss, you will be attending the premiere of Mission: Impossible 3 tomorrow. Volkswagen hopes that you can drive a VIP vehicle of their super luxury brand Bugatti and make an appearance at the premiere!"

"Bugatti?"

Chen Yu's heart skipped a beat. Of course he knew this car. It was one of the most limited and expensive supercars in the world in his previous life.

It is famous for its unique transparent W16 cylinder 8.0 liters, over 1000 horsepower engine.

"Well, Bugatti Veyron, it's the latest ultra-high-end brand launched by Volkswagen!"

"The car has been flown in. They will drive it to your doorstep tomorrow. You will be responsible for driving it to the premiere at the Kodak Cinema!"

All of this is obviously arranged. Chen Yu is currently the global spokesperson for Volkswagen. The Bugatti Veyron is a luxury supercar launched by Volkswagen last year for the ultra-high-end group. The starting price is an astonishing 100 million euros.

Then in fact, the car was eventually sold at a price of more than 2500 million RMB, and there was no demand for it.

Chen Yu looked at the Bugatti Veyron information provided to him by Mazen, and it was indeed the same as the Bugatti Veyron he remembered, with over 1000 horsepower, reaching 1001, a top speed of 407 kilometers per hour, and a price of 100 million euros, equivalent to 1040 million yuan!
Reservations are currently being accepted, but only for VIP guests. It is claimed to be "the fastest car in the world."

“This car is so beautiful…”

Liu Yifei was also attracted by the exaggerated appearance of Bugatti Veyron. Chen Yu smiled and said, "How about buying one?"

It's only priced at 100 million euros now, but it won't be this price in two years.

“I can’t afford it!”

Liu Yifei obviously saw the selling price. Chen Yu knew that it was not that she couldn't afford the money, but she just thought it was too expensive.

But in Chen Yu's eyes, this car is a financial product.

"Mazen, can I get a discount if I buy it?"

Chen Yu was joking, and Mazen shrugged: "Boss, you shouldn't ask me, but call Bernard Bired directly. I think he would be happy to promote this business!"

Guaranteed profit without loss.

The news that the company's own spokesperson purchased a supercar that will soon be launched into the global high-end market has immediately reached maximum exposure.

"Okay, I'll find time to call Bernard!"

Bernard Pierre is currently the president of Volkswagen of Germany.

"Are you really buying it?"

Liu Yifei asked quietly.

"Well, for you!"

"I do not want it!"

Liu Yifei was shocked. She didn't even dare to accept a supercar worth more than 1000 million yuan.

"Aren't they all the same, should I drive or you drive?"

"Let you experience the feeling of driving a supercar..."

This girl really likes this kind of extreme speed and likes to drive fast whenever she has nothing to do. Doesn’t Chen Yu know her?

"If you give it to me, I will definitely agree!"

Liu Yifei showed a pleasant smile on her face, and there was a gleam in her eyes, as if she was looking forward to driving the car.

Supercars are lethal to men, and women as well.

"In addition to cars, there is also Panerai..."

Attending a premiere is actually similar to the Oscars ceremony, because it will attract media from all over the United States and even other countries, and everyone who receives an invitation can go to the Kodak Cinema.

This kind of exposure opportunity is an opportunity that no brand would want to miss.

Commercialization in the United States is currently very successful, and communication and cooperation between brands and artists are also intensive.

As a rising Chinese action star in Hollywood, Chen Yu now has to wear branded clothing, accessories, watches, etc. when attending such occasions instead of buying his own clothes.

Almost everything inside and out is sponsored by brands.

Even underwear is not spared.

"Finally home!" Looking at his home in Beverly Hills, Chen Yu felt for the first time that this villa, although he was not very satisfied with it, had unknowingly become a kind of sustenance for him.

Because this was where the daily life of him and Liu Yifei living together was recorded.

Although it has only been a little over a month, looking at the appearance of the building, I can't help but think of every little thing the two of us have experienced here.

Warm moments indoors, time spent together as a couple, walks outside, and so on.

The concept of home is so magical.

Liu Yifei certainly had the same feeling. When she walked into the house, it was as if she had unloaded all the burdens of the outside world. She just wanted to lie on the sofa or bed, snuggle in Chen Yu's arms, have a good sleep or watch a romance movie.

"Husband, do you feel that something is missing at home?"

Liu Yifei changed into home clothes in a very ungraceful manner and lay down on the sofa.

"what?"

"It's just the two of us. If you're not here, it'll be just me!"

Liu Yifei blinked, and Chen Yu understood a little: "Well, a few fewer children!"

"go away……"

Liu Yifei smiled and threw the pillow to Chen Yu who was walking over. Chen Yu took it and lay down next to Liu Yifei. The two of them hugged each other with their ears rubbing.

"I'm telling you the truth, I always feel like something is missing!"

"Pets, get some pets to keep you company!"

Chen Yu didn't know what Liu Yifei was thinking. Liu Yifei's eyes lit up, and she sat up suddenly, looking at Chen Yu with twinkling eyes: "Yes, husband, how about we get a dog?"

"It's all right. I can take care of cats and dogs. You just need to take care of them. I'm lazy!"

Chen Yu only likes walking the dog and petting the cat. He doesn't want to do anything else. He is not good at being a poop scooper.

"Okay, I'll look for one after I'm done with this busy period!"

Liu Yifei likes small animals very much, but Chen Yu touched his rumbling stomach and said, "Oh, it would be great if we had takeout!"

Now all we need is a food delivery software.

"Takeout? Want to call for food?"

Americans already have takeout services, but they require a phone call. Some fast food restaurants and pizza restaurants have delivery services, but not only is the service time slow, but you also have to pay tips, delivery fees, etc.

Chen Yu made a phone call to order food, and the two of them took a shower and then snuggled up on the sofa, eating dinner and watching a movie.

Meet the Fockers!
A comedy film released by Universal in 2000. It had very good box office and reputation. It was a masterpiece of low-budget comeback. It cost 5500 million and grossed 3.5 million US dollars worldwide.

The sequel, which cost $8000 million last year, grossed $5.22 million, making the series very popular with audiences across the United States.

Although the reputation of the third part of the Future collapsed, it still made 3 million yuan.

Liu Yifei watched with great interest and laughed from time to time. She had not seen all of them, but Chen Yu was very impressed by all three.

Chen Yu enjoyed the feeling of being in his own world the most.

Nothing to do, nothing to think about, just each other and life.

Even in the hotel, he didn't have this feeling.

Only at home, the two of them lay on the sofa, with snacks piled in front of them, eating while watching the movie, chatting from time to time, and when the movie ended, the two of them naturally hugged each other.

Sleep or do something else.

This should be his and Liu Yifei's daily bedtime routine in the future.

On a rare night alone together, Chen Yu and Liu Yifei fell asleep in each other's arms.

……

Boom boom boom!
The next morning, Chen Yu was awakened by the roar of an engine outside.

Andre, the CEO of Volkswagen's American branch, and a local racing driver drove a Bugatti Veyron supercar that looked like a ghost in the night and stopped at the door of his house.

Before it even stopped, countless people had already stopped to watch and take pictures.

Nokia's mobile phones currently have a wide range of camera functions.

"Chan, I'm sorry to disturb your rest!"

Although Andre said this, there was no trace of apology on his face.

Chen Yu was wearing pajamas and looking at the Bugatti parked so carelessly at the door. The black car with a red base looked very ostentatious, as if it was burning in flames, and the Death Knight was stepping on the flames.

But it was obviously not the blue and black classic in Chen Yu's memory.

In fact, in 06, if there was a car parked like this at the intersection, it would almost attract 100% of the people turning back to look at it.

Even though Chen Yu was someone who was used to seeing this luxury car on the Internet in his previous life, he couldn't help but take a few more glances at the real car when he saw it.

This car is still capable of fighting in 2027, and its appearance is indeed extremely weird.

"I've handed the car over to you. My mission is accomplished!"

Andre threw the car keys to Chen Yu. Chen Yu looked at the increasing number of people watching outside, quickly unlocked the car, and drove it to the garage.

We have to wait until Chen Yu gets up and goes out. During this time, no one knows what will happen.

Scratches on the car paint are a small matter, but don't let the car collapse. Americans of this period, whether white or black, were relatively abstract.

Later generations believed that all kinds of things were correct.

"Is that the Veyron?"

Seeing Chen Yu return to the bedroom, the neatly dressed Liu Yifei couldn't help but ask.

"Yes, do you want to experience it?"

Chen Yu had already seen the impatience in Liu Yifei's eyes. Unlike in his previous life when Chen Yu had seen Bugatti, Liu Yifei had never seen this kind of supercar.

When she heard the car coming, she was of course curious and wanted to see what was going on.

When she arrived at the garage and saw the exaggerated Bugatti in front of her, Liu Yifei's expression was indeed very passionate.

“This car is so impressive, can it really be driven on the road?”

Liu Yifei was like a curious baby, walking around the car body and carefully examining it. She was obviously shocked when she saw the exposed W16 engine: "Is this the engine of the car?"

"What should I do if it rains?"

Liu Yifei said this unexpectedly.

"This is the engine cover. The seal should be OK!"

"Besides, the engine operates at a temperature of 540 degrees. Raindrops falling on it would probably vaporize..."

Chen Yu also read the information in his previous life and talked nonsense randomly, and he didn't know whether it was true or not.

But Liu Yifei really likes it. After looking around the car's appearance, she couldn't wait to open the door and feel the charm of the main driver's seat.

The two men studied the car for more than half an hour before they were awakened by a phone call.

The brand’s people have arrived.
