Actor: Thank you.

"Next, let's focus on international news."

"According to AFP."

"Young Chinese actor, Zhang Yuan."

"In the French capital of Paris, the famous Champs-Elysees was robbed by criminals on the street."

"It is reported that Zhang Yuan is currently filming the action movie 'Rush Hour 3'."

“We have now left the local police station and returned to the hotel.”

"There was no loss of life or property."

"We would like to remind overseas Chinese to pay attention to the safety of their personal property, and also call on the Paris police to protect the lives and property of Chinese tourists and staff while in France..."

Zhang Yuan held the phone in one hand and the remote control of the hotel's satellite TV in the other.

What is being broadcast on TV is CCTV's "News Broadcast".

With a familiar and gentle, deep and serious voice, Kang Hui, who had just joined the ranks of hosts of the "News Broadcast" at that time, steadily narrated the events that happened to him.

“I see, I see…”

Zhang Yuan replied to the person on the phone helplessly.

The "News Broadcast" is broadcast every night at 7 o'clock.

But China is in the East 8th District, and Paris is in the East 1st District.

The time in the imperial capital is seven hours ahead of that in Paris.

Liu Xixi had just finished his meal when he received a phone call, waking him up as he had been on the set until late at night and had planned to sleep until the afternoon.

It was only her. If it was someone else, he would have cursed her out loud.

Because he knows that the other person really cares about him.

This news has already been reported overnight.

Xiaolongnu called me yesterday and yelled at me.

He said he was famous on the Internet.

The reason is also very simple.

The place where he chased and kicked people was called the Champs-Elysées.

The prosperity of this place is described in famous works of literary masters such as Alexandre Dumas' "The Count of Monte Cristo", Alexandre Dumas' "The Lady of the Camellias" and Balzac's "Old Goriot".

It can be said that the Champs-Elysées is basically one of the most representative places in the entire European world, if not the only one.

Although the people in the old revolutionary areas get off work early.

Paris was the place where the great philosopher Marx convened a group of heroes to hold a socialist conference, and where Robert Owen put forward the slogan of the eight-hour workday.

Before this, most capitalist countries, led by Great Britain, forced workers to work 12 hours a day.

Some people may say that Chinese cattle and horses work 12 hours a day now...

Don’t be impatient, there are even worse ones.

America, which claimed to be the beacon of civilization, even forced workers to work 18 hours a day at that time!
The eight-hour workday was introduced in Australia and New Zealand in 1853.

Following closely behind were powerful countries such as Britain and France.

The Beacon Country did not join until 1938, and was basically the last among the capitalist countries.

Otherwise, there would be so many capitalists.

At this time, the French people had already begun to fight for a six-hour work day.

It is impossible to work overtime, and I can never work overtime in this life. I don’t know how to do business, so I can only steal things to make a living... This is almost the situation Zhang Yuan encountered.

The French get off work early, so other places are empty.

The only place that is brightly lit all night long is the Champs-Elysées!
Anyone who comes to Paris must visit here.

Lu Xun wrote in his collection of essays: If you haven't been to the Great Wall, you are not a true man; if you haven't been to the Champs Elysees, you are a lazy man...

Not only Chinese people come here to check in, this is the dream place of the entire Western world.

It was already late when the incident happened.

But there are quite a few people on the street!

And to the left is the Louvre, and to the right is the Arc de Triomphe.

Just around the corner you'll reach the Eiffel Tower.

On the other side of the river is the Lao Niangniang Temple.

It's Notre Dame de Paris.

There are tens of millions of tourists coming here every year!

The tourists all have cameras and video recorders in their hands.

I took pictures of them all for him.

First, a young tourist returned to the hotel and posted a video of him running and chasing someone on YouTube.

In those days, there were already many people in the country with quick minds who started doing one thing.

We don't produce videos, we are just video porters.

This means that the video is exported and then sold domestically, and is moved to major domestic video websites.

Now it’s great, it’s become a big hit!
Liu Qianqian herself was badly attacked online, so she could empathize with him and would often check his news online.

Whenever I see him being scolded, I feel better...

It's not that I hate him.

Her thought was, Zhang Yuan is so capable and does such a great job, yet people still scold him.

Then it’s normal for me to be scolded a few times.

I was watching and saw this video.

Especially when she saw Zhang Yuanfei kicking the robber, her eyes lit up!
She has also practiced and learned sword dancing in order to film "The Return of the Condor Heroes". She has a certain interest in martial arts.

So the first reaction is handsome handsome handsome...

After chattering with me for several minutes, he suddenly reacted.

The tone of voice changed, and he asked the question in a very nervous manner.

"Are you OK?"

"Don't worry, I'm fine. There's nothing wrong with me."

"Then watch out for yourself."

Then, more than ten hours later, after seeing that his story was reported on the "News Broadcast", he called again excitedly.

"You are so amazing! You even appeared on CCTV."

Zhang Yuan thought about it and decided it was half and half.

It is indeed worthy of making news that a well-known Chinese actor was robbed abroad.

But he was able to make CCTV spend almost a minute describing the incident in detail, which shows that he was somewhat "considerate".

It’s easy to get things done if there’s someone in the station!

Not only CCTV, but half of the major satellite TV stations reported it.

And CCTV said that it was reported according to AFP, so it was also reported locally in France.

And AFP is the notorious... no, that is, one of the four most famous Western news agencies in the world.

As famous as Reuters, Associated Press and United Press International.

As soon as he reported it, several other companies followed suit.

Especially the media in the Beacon Country.

After all, it was a Hollywood crew that suffered this incident, so they will definitely pay attention to it.

That’s incredible!

The internet and the news were all about him.

Before, he only appeared in some entertainment sections in China.

This time it’s great, it’s on the global real-time.

But in most places, it is this incident that is famous, not the man himself.

Even most regions just said that a Chinese actor bravely fought against Paris robbers, without mentioning his name at all.

The video was shot at night, and it wasn't shot with professional equipment, so it was blurry and his face couldn't be seen clearly.

Apart from people in China who know about him, only the news in the Beacon Country specifically posted his photos on the set.

But that's enough.

After chatting with Liu Xixi for a while, as soon as I hung up the phone, the phone started ringing non-stop.

From friends to employees, everyone called him to ask about his situation.

They all called after watching the "Xinwen Broadcast".

Cheng Hao: Are you okay?
Fan Bingbing: Are you okay?

Ning Hao: Are you okay?
Dozens of people came one after another!
The phone got hot from all the calls.

Beep, beep...another one coming.

Pick up the phone and listen.

Yang Mi: Are you okay?
Zhang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.

comfortable!
You have to listen to what the owner says, only the authentic version is right.

"It's okay, don't worry, I'm healthy."

"That's good... hehe." As Yang Mi spoke, she started laughing.

"You have a new nickname now!"

"what?"

"The internet gave you this name: Kung Fu Boy in Paris."

Isn't that Wu Jing's title, Kung Fu Boy in Love... Zhang Yuan thought. "Someone even took a screenshot of your flying kick and made it into a poster."

I have to say, Zhang Yuan was really angry at that time.

Therefore, the movements are particularly standard and upright.

Whether it is the height, angle, strength or difficulty level, it can all be rated ten.

"That's not the end!" Zhang Yuan sighed.

"What's the matter?" Yang Mi asked worriedly.

"My story will only strengthen the Western stereotype that everyone in China knows martial arts!"

"And by doing so, wouldn't that label me as an action actor?"

“I actually prefer literary drama.”

"What's wrong with that? Those foreigners just love to watch Chinese people perform action movies."

"Look at Chen Long and Li Lianjie, they are both doing well."

“It can make a lot of money.”

Big Mi Mi is quite clear about making money.

No matter whether the cat is black or white, in her opinion, the one that can make money is a good cat.

Zhang Yuan did not deny her statement.

Not to mention Jackie Chan and Li Lianjie, even the Japanese and Koreans, and the Southeast Asians.

Especially for male actors, if they want to make a name for themselves in Hollywood, most of them have to go the action route.

This is what people buy into, and this is all they buy into.

All we can say is that fortune and misfortune go hand in hand.

The misfortune, of course, was that something bad happened as soon as I got off the plane.

And blessing.

His blessing is about to arrive.

Of course it’s 996!
Once the news was reported, it became a hot topic on the Internet, and a large number of reporters came to interview him.

As soon as he arrived on the set, he would be surrounded by people several times.

The hotel downstairs was also crowded with people.

Everyone thought he was staying at the Marriott with the crew.

He was very glad that he had changed the name to Shangri-La and no one had discovered it.

Domestic media also called him and Yang Siwei like crazy, wanting to interview him about this matter.

His daily schedule is fully packed.

Even more than 996.

In addition to face-to-face interviews, there were also online website and media telephone interviews.

Gu Yongqiang called him immediately and asked him to connect online and accept an exclusive online interview with Youku.

30 in 50 minutes.

What does it mean that every minute counts?

I have to say, when it comes to reaction and courage, among all the video websites, Boss Gu is the best.

There are also people with quick brains in other professions.

Su Mang called him and asked him to be on the cover of Harper's Bazaar next month.

The last time I was on the cover of the first issue of Bazaar Men.

The main body of "Harper's Bazaar" is, of course, a level higher than "Bazaar Men".

Although most of the covers of Harper's Bazaar feature female stars, there are occasionally men on them.

Basically 19 to 19.

Moreover, Su Mang was very cunning and offered to send a team to Paris to help him shoot.

The reasons given sound very nice.

"You are filming, and I can't ask you to go back home specially. It will delay your work."

In fact, this woman had already found out about it.

I just want to go to the set of the blockbuster movie "Rush Hour 3".

That is the Eiffel Tower!

After she reluctantly said she wanted to take photos at the Eiffel Tower, Zhang Yuan flatly refused.

$50 a night is no joke.

Two big night shows equaled my pay.

There was no way the crew would agree to let her use it for free.

After all, shooting a cover takes at least half a day.

As a result, Su Mang said something that men often say when they cheat on young girls.

"I'll just wait and not go in."

Zhang Yuan: …

She said we could just take photos outside, and include the major landmarks of France.

Only then did Zhang Yuan agree.

He thought about how many of his colleagues had their eyes bloodshot with envy when he appeared on the cover of the first issue of Bazaar Men.

It's only been a few days and she's already on the cover of the main issue of Harper's Bazaar and has an exclusive interview.

Wouldn’t those colleagues be gritting their teeth?
The cruel ones would probably stab me in the back.

So, he really has been working 996 recently, maybe even more than that.

After all, these tasks have to be completed during the crew's time outside of filming.

It’s not just the media and websites that come knocking on our door.

The manager from Paris Marriott also came.

He banged on the door, trying to get me to move back in.

They also said that all facilities were free to use and that I would be upgraded to a presidential suite.

Because now everyone knows that this happened in front of their hotel and it has a very bad impact.

Zhang Yuan understood it immediately and knew that he wanted me to help explain and say something nice.

Just give the president a set and that's it?
What about my irreparable psychological trauma?

Is this the first day this happened in front of your hotel?
I can't go against my conscience just to upgrade my suite.

And Shangri-La knew about it immediately.

Hey!
Peers are enemies.

How dare you come to rob people?
If I don't give you some advice, you won't know what cruel business war is.

This also upgraded him to the presidential suite, without any additional conditions.

The layout and thinking immediately set it apart from the one next door.

On the second day after moving into the presidential suite, the media learned from "an unknown informant" that Zhang Yuan had moved to Shangri-La after being robbed at the entrance of Marriott.

The manager also accepted an interview and said that their hotel is absolutely safe and is the first choice for travelers.

There will never be an incident where a customer is robbed at the store entrance.

He was just short of pointing at my ID card and cursing.

Marriott was so angry that the headquarters sent a lawyer's letter to Zhang Yuan the next day.

Zhang Yuan: …

If you can't beat Shangri-La, then beat me, right?
The lawyer's letter was not to sue him, but to block him.

Marriott and its subsidiaries JW, Ritz-Carlton, Ritz-Carlton, Courtyard, Renaissance, and Ramada will all refuse to allow him to stay in the future.

I think his behavior has brought shame to the brand.

This is called getting angry out of shame.

After all, it is a well-known brand of Lighthouse. If you can’t beat it, just ban it.

"There are quite a lot of people who have banned me recently." Zhang Yuan counted on his fingers.

"Take a number and go line up!"

Too many lice don't worry, too much debt doesn't itch.

Without you, Zheng the Butcher, can I still eat hairy pigs?
As long as I have money, there are plenty of hotel brands.

I don't want it even if you give it to me to live here.

Zhang Yuan remembered that it was this hotel in later generations that listed Formosa, Macao, Hong Kong and XZ as countries in an online questionnaire.

I was directly interviewed by the National Tourism Administration.

In the end, he pretended to fire a temporary worker in an attempt to get away with it.

This is not a big deal, Zhang Yuan doesn't care about it at all.

Life is incomplete without one or two enemies.

Putting aside the hotel matters, he was enjoying the oversized bathtub in the presidential suite, regretting that no one was there to share it with him, when his assistant knocked on the bathroom door.

The presidential suite has several rooms, so the assistant doesn't have to stay in a standard room alone.

"Brother Zhang Yuan, someone is looking for you."

"who?"

Zhao Xunxun swallowed and then said.

"Tiaozi!" (End of this chapter)
