Huayu: As a child star, I just want to be famous

Chapter 370 European Tour
In late July, the weather has become extremely hot.

However, this does not affect the crew of "Taken". They are now in the studio, enjoying the air-conditioning.

During the break in filming, Chen Linfeng called Lu Yang over to ask him about it.

"How do you feel about being on the set recently?"

Lu Yang didn't understand what the director wanted to do, so he answered honestly, "It's good. I learned a lot."

As a subordinate, he subconsciously wanted to show more of himself and explained his experience in communication and coordination with the crew, as well as his few experiences during the trial shoots.

Chen Linfeng thought that he was worthy of being a famous director in later generations, and his thoughts were all on point.

Considering that Lu Yang has been able to complete all the tasks assigned to him recently.

"The next fight scene isn't too difficult. How about you try it?"

Lu Yang didn't expect that, just as his father said, Director Chen was a person who was willing to teach and delegate power.

It’s so unexpected that I can have the opportunity to practice it so soon.

He was a confident man, so he quickly agreed and promised, "Director, I will definitely not let you down."

Then he left with full confidence, ready to find Cao Yu to coordinate the next shooting plan.

Chen Linfeng began to study the next shooting schedule.

The original plan needs to be changed.

He needs to free up about 15 days, during which time he will leave some simple shooting tasks for Lu Yang to take care of.

As a producer, Mark is very experienced and can check and approve the finished films every day.

This is also one of the jobs that big producers in Hollywood need to do.

It’s just that Chen Linfeng had more power before, so Mark just checked with him and didn’t say much.

Now it's up to him to take charge, and nothing can go wrong.

Chen Linfeng explained to Mark the subsequent filming adjustments and that he would be away for half a month.

Mark is well aware of the director's recent situation.

Hollywood has been watching the viewing frenzy that "Sherlock Holmes" has caused around the world.

In their view, a new Chinese international superstar has emerged.

Moreover, Chen is not a star like Fang Long who is restricted by the subject matter.

He even briefly broke through the European and American world's prejudice against skin color.

Just look at the current media reports and you will know that almost all of them say good things about him.

This is a very abnormal situation. Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that there must be some force behind it.

Mark even directly knew the driving force behind it, which was none other than Disney.

It seems that Mr. Robert Iger really intends to let Chen play the leading role in "Infinite World".

Yes, "Sherlock Holmes" has proved that Chen is the kind of actor who is extremely charming and can immerse the audience in the plot.

It is precisely because of this that no matter whether it is Disney or BBC, there must be someone urging Chen to participate in the "Shen Xia" crew's promotional tour to various countries to continue to expand its influence.

Mark increasingly felt that his previous bet on Chen was a wise move, and he was proud of it.

He patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Chen, I will help you keep an eye on the crew."

"That's alright, I'll leave it to you."

Afterwards, Chen Linfeng explained the situation to Fang Long, Cao Yu, Liu Qingshan and others, and flew to London with Liu Qianqian.

The crew of "Shen Xia" has been waiting for a long time.

on the plane.

"The endorsement fee is $450 million a year, and the signing fee is $50. This is the latest offer from Pepsi."

Originally, the contract signed between Pepsi and him had not expired yet, and only more than two years had passed.

Pepsi undoubtedly made a lot of money from that contract.

The contract was signed at 450 million RMB per year.

Nowadays, even if we don’t count the past six months, the market quotation has already exceeded 10 million RMB.

The situation is different now.

After winning the Palme d'Or and "Sherlock Holmes" was broadcast.

Chen Linfeng's film pay and endorsement fees are both in a state of drastic fluctuations.

But no matter what, just endorsing Coke, $450 million a year is a very high price.

In the Asian region, this is the highest price ever.

In particular, this was a case of PepsiCo renewing the contract early at a higher price when only half of the endorsement contract was complete.

It can be said to be full of sincerity.

"The brand is so attentive." Chen Linfeng exclaimed.

"It's necessary to pay attention to it," Sister Mei laughed, "especially because its competitors are very concerned about it."

Chen Linfeng also smiled, "Delicious?"

Yes, Mrs. Pepsi, you don’t want the stars you signed to be poached by others.

After laughing.

"That's one aspect," Mei said, "According to our previous plan, we were not going to renew the contract.

With your current situation, you can consider endorsing top luxury brands. I have received several offers recently."

"Indeed," Chen Linfeng nodded, "But I also like drinking this, and it doesn't have much of an impact, so I'll just keep drinking it."

"Okay, I understand," Mei continued to report, "Nike is also very interested, and the offer has reached tens of millions."

She paused, then explained, "I know it doesn't suit our style, but if he offers too much, it will help us increase our market price, so I still need to confirm with you."

"Forget it, let's stick to the established plan."

Chen Linfeng has not forgotten the outrageous operations of Nike in later generations. Since the style does not match, then let alone get involved.

After finishing the business, Chen Linfeng asked about Mei's blind date as usual. She is almost 30 years old now, which is definitely an older woman in her hometown.

The relationship in Sister Mei’s family was not very harmonious to begin with, and they had several arguments because of this matter.

There were several times when Chen Linfeng went back and Sister Mei's family came to visit him because of this matter.

Maybe Sister Mei herself also had this idea, so since last year, she has also participated in several blind dates.

However, every time I was asked about how the blind date went, I would shake my head.

This time there was finally a different answer.

"We are discussing this now, so let's see how it goes."

"Really?" Chen Linfeng sat up straight. "Tell me, who is this person? Let me meet him some other day."

Sister Mei rolled her eyes at him, "You're treating me like an elder. How can a younger brother care about this?"

"We are younger brothers now, so we have to care about our older brothers and sisters." Chen Linfeng said confidently.

My younger brother is in charge of the Chen family.

Sister Mei couldn't hold it back. "Xiaolong has been bullied by you a lot. You don't have to meddle in my affairs."

After joking around a bit, Chen Linfeng said seriously, "How about I give you some time off so you can sort out your own issues first."

"That won't work. You're busy right now and I can't leave."

"It's okay. Xiao Chang has been through a lot. It's okay to let her hold on for a while, right, Xiao Chang?"

Xiao Chang, who was called by the boss, didn't expect that he still had his own things to do.

She responded in confusion, "What did the boss call me for?"

Chen Linfeng said unhappily, "It's okay."

This is an employee who has no motivation at all.

If it were someone else, especially one who is good at complacency, they would have to keep an eye on the boss's movements all the time.

But having said that, it’s nice to have a funny person in the team who likes to slack off and make people laugh from time to time.

Just don't procrastinate in your work.

The topic ended and Chen Linfeng stopped talking.

Liu Qianqian next to her was sleeping soundly. There were noises nearby but she didn't react.

Chen Linfeng sighed that he had a good sleep, then pulled up the blanket on her body and leaned back in the chair, closing his eyes to rest.

……

7 month 25 day.

The UK has already aired three episodes of "Sherlock Holmes", the first season.

Chen Linfeng came to London, England, his loyal country.

At this time, Chen is the most popular star in the UK.

The first season ended with a 33.9% rating and just over 800 million total viewers.

This is a groundbreaking achievement. Since 00, when statistics were collected, no British TV series has ever achieved such a result.

Chen is the original author of the novel and the actor who plays Sherlock, the center of the whole play.

Great contribution!

The male protagonist Benedict Cumberbatch in the previous life topped the Twitter search list 20 minutes after the first episode was aired.

As a result, he created a Guinness record - the person who became famous the fastest in the world.

Chen Linfeng was already a well-known figure before, so of course there would not be such a record.

But in terms of the depth and breadth of his influence, he surpasses them all.

In depth, Chen Linfeng clearly felt this after arriving in London.

As soon as he walked out of the airport, almost every British person he met recognized him at a glance.

They shouted "Sherlock" loudly and quickly gathered around to express their surprise.

"Oh, it's true Sherlock."

"I love your performance so much, can you give me an autograph?"

"Chen, I've fallen in love with you, can you give me a chance?"

It feels like someone knows his last name, but are you serious, buddy?
"Oh, you are Lily, you are so beautiful in real life."

With the broadcast of "Shen Xia", Liu Xixi's role as the forensic doctor has also become well-known.

More and more people gathered around and it seemed like an incident was about to happen.

Fortunately, there was a car specially sent by the production team to pick him up outside the airport. Chen Linfeng apologized to the crowd, then quickly pulled Liu Qianqian into the car and left.

It’s the same at the hotel. Even though the staff tried their best to restrain themselves, they said, “Miss, please don’t shake your hands so much.”

There were several guests who were checking in at the same time, and they often had the same reaction when they saw Chen Linfeng.

First there was a surprised scream of "Sherlock", then some people stood there taking pictures with their mobile phones, and then edited the text and tweeted it, all in one go.

This era is getting closer and closer to what Chen Linfeng remembered.

Some rushed over to get close to their idols and express their love.

There were not so many people in the hotel, so Chen Linfeng met the fans' request and took a photo with them.

Liu Qianqian was not ignored in this process.

She plays a very important role in the play, and her beauty leaves a deep impression on the audience.

Therefore, when "Sherlock" appears together, everyone will only be surprised by the appearance of "Lily".

Now on the Internet, there are most of the plot lovers who deeply analyze the plot and details of "Sherlock Holmes".

Many of the main creators, especially Chen Linfeng's past experiences, love life, personality traits and other contents, are being deeply dug up by netizens.

It's no secret that Sherlock and Lily are a couple in real life.
