You made me a superstar

Chapter 531 Before the penetration of Chinese culture

February 26.

The cold winter is coming to an end.

The snow in North America has begun to melt, but the grass has not grown, and the air is still bitterly cold.

Wearing glasses, Zhao Zhen walked on the streets of Hollywood, looking at companies and reporters on the street, and suddenly realized that Hollywood, which was once out of reach, was so close.

[Mr. Zhao Zhen, are you free today?I want to drink tea with you, and listen to you talk about China's tea ceremony culture! 】

[Recently, I fell in love with drinking tea, especially the fragrance in the tea, which made me unable to control my restless heart...]

The phone vibrated.

Zhao Zhen looked down at the contents of the text message, and then subconsciously shivered, almost losing his grip on the phone.

After filming "Brokeback Mountain", Zhao Zhen felt that he was a little bit involved in the film. Occasionally, he would recall the good years when filming "Brokeback Mountain" in his mind, and then unconsciously thought of the tent in his mind.

Then, he was shocked and realized that something was wrong with him, so after the premiere, he kept a certain distance from Jack Ledger, another actor of "Brokeback Mountain", even for more than ten days after the premiere , he never met Jack Ledger alone again.

But Jack Ledger is very "enthusiastic". He will send messages to him every day, chat with him about movies and tea ceremony...

Especially Jack Ledger's fiery voice on the phone made Zhao Zhen feel chills down his spine, and he didn't dare to talk any more.

"Wow! That's Mr. Zhao Zhen!"

"Wow, Mr. Zhao Zhen, can you sign for us?"

"Mr. Zhao Zhen, I want to take a photo with you..."

"Wow, Mr. Zhao Zhen is so cool, he is a cool uncle!"

Generally speaking, there is a price to be paid for becoming famous, and the price is walking on the street, and anyone who sees me will rush over in surprise.

Then, under the protection of assistant Shen Mengmeng, they signed autographs, took photos, were asked various questions, and then they had to show a smile and try their best to meet all the requirements of fans.

Zhao Zhen was surrounded by fans and couldn't breathe, especially many male fans would try their best to squeeze in, and then fumbled with their hands dishonestly. Zhao Zhen hid several times and was almost caught.

After half an hour...

Zhao Zhen escaped from the encirclement and came to Mary Varney's studio in Hollywood.

When the assistant Shen Mengmeng told Mary Vanner about Zhao Zhen, Mary Vanner couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"You have to adapt to all this. After "Brokeback Mountain", you will be a Hollywood superstar. This year's Oscars, you have a good chance!"

After Mary Varney finished laughing, she looked Zhao Zhen up and down again, and the more she looked, the more she felt satisfied.

Her thoughts about "Brokeback Mountain" before "Brokeback Mountain" were two young people who tasted the forbidden fruit together in solitude, and finally suffered taboos and lovesickness in the secular world. Later, one of the two young people changed to Uncle's character design unexpectedly produced a very amazing chemical reaction, which actually made the movie's influence even higher.

It was a complete surprise.

"Oh……"

Zhao Zhen tidied up his messy clothes, and then wiped his cloudy glasses.

Before filming "Brokeback Mountain", he actually didn't like wearing glasses very much. On the one hand, he was not too short-sighted, but on the other hand, it was uncomfortable to wear.

But after filming, seeing his elegant appearance of "making tea" in the movie, he began to feel that such a dress was very suitable.

Mary Varney then answered a phone call. After answering the phone call, she suddenly became a little dazed, and then her expression became weird.

"Mr. Zhao Zhen..."

"Ok?"

"Now I probably know why Mr. Zhou Yang wrote the script of "Brokeback Mountain"."

"why?"

"Mr. Zhou Yang wants to use movies to change many fans in the United States to change their inherent impressions of Chinese... Except for the martial arts movies flying around and the squinting protagonists made by Westerners, Chinese people are actually He is also very elegant, knowledgeable and connotative, and at the same time, he uses movies to popularize tea culture to these beautiful people..."

"..."

After Zhao Zhen heard Mary Varney's voice, he fell into a long silence.

..............................

The riots caused by the release of the movie "Brokeback Mountain" did not stop, but intensified.

The two factions of the Liberal Party and the Conservative Party in the old United States are fighting each other to the death. Almost every day in the major media, they will debate whether to give legal support to "guarantee of same-sex marriage".

The number of protests has decreased a lot, but in the streets and alleys, some "couples" who were originally secretive have begun to stop being as low-key as before, and instead are doing what normal emotions should do.

February 27.

The box office of "Brokeback Mountain", which was released for twelve days, unexpectedly reached an astonishing US$[-] million in Laomei, breaking the shackles of similar films in history and becoming a new milestone.

After watching this movie, apart from being moved by the beautiful love, the movie fans were also attracted by the taciturn but extraordinarily elegant Zhao Zhen.

Hollywood seems to be very supportive of "Brokeback Mountain". Since Jim Reeves came out publicly, more and more people have started to speak out for "niche love". The presidents all spoke together, calling on everyone to eliminate discrimination and treat everyone equally.

[An oriental man is so attractive, this is a kind of cultural influence!Unbelievable, three years ago, he was actually a coal miner digging in the dark bottom of the mine! 】

"Hollywood Film Weekly" specially featured the movie "Brokeback Mountain", and at the same time, in the follow-up pages, it introduced Zhao Zhen, the "mysterious oriental man", in quite detail.

With the popularity of "Brokeback Mountain" getting higher and higher...

Zhao Zhen's popularity is becoming more and more terrifying, and at the same time, it has indeed gradually changed some old American movie fans' views on Huaxia people.

""Brokeback Mountain" is the best movie I have seen in these years!"

"I used to wonder why Chinese people like to eat cockroaches. Later, when I grew up and went to China, I realized that's not the case..."

"Our Laomei's movies have been manipulated. Before "Brokeback Mountain" came out, I always thought that Chinese people were ugly, squinted, bloated, and very wretched. They would go to various places to steal children. ..."

"Me too……"

"Hey, there seems to be the same tea set from the movie here?"

"Where is it?"

"Here, this store seems to be newly opened..."

"..."

Delaware.

Newcastle County.

After Sanna and a few friends watched "Brokeback Mountain", it took a long time for them to relieve the sadness and sadness.

They chatted, and unconsciously talked about Chinese people from "Brokeback Mountain", and then talked about Huaxia.

Chatting and chatting, Sanna inadvertently saw a house that seemed to have just been renovated, with stills of "Brokeback Mountain" on it. Sanna approached the room subconsciously, and then saw all kinds of Celadon and ceramic tea sets, she could tell at a glance that one of the tea sets was similar to the one used by Zhao Zhen in "Brokeback Mountain".

With curiosity, she followed her friends into this tea room.

"welcome!"

After pushing open the door, you can see a few tall Huaxia welcome ladies wearing cheongsams with quiet smiles on their faces. The Huaxia welcome ladies speak Chinese. Although Sanna can't understand, Sanna still looks at these ladies more. After a few glances, in addition to being envious of their tall figures, I also felt the yearning sense of elegance from them.

When they walked in, she saw a handsome young man with a smile on his face, chatted with them in very fluent English, and recommended some tea to them.

Sanna looked at the room, and found that she didn't have much vigilance in her heart, especially the simple decoration and the quiet sound of the zither in the room, which made her tired heart feel an unprecedented tranquility. Seeing that the fee was not too expensive, she subconsciously followed the young man into one of the tearooms marked "The Seat of Elegance".

The friends were chattering, they were very curious about the costumes here, and asked the young man about various things from time to time, and the young man answered them one by one very patiently, and personally made them a cup of tea and "Brokeback Mountain" The same tea in...

The young people are very talkative, especially when they talk about tea culture, they seem to have endless topics to talk about, and they are also very charming. They make the girls in the room laugh out loud without saying a few words.

In this extremely relaxed and soothing atmosphere, Sanna felt that she had forgotten all her troubles and was more comfortable than ever. Drinking a cup of tea was an extreme enjoyment.

But time flies by...

It took more than an hour, but Sanna felt like it was fleeting.

Moreover, for some reason, she felt that this charming young man in front of her seemed familiar. She must have seen this young man somewhere, and this young man should be a celebrity, but after thinking about it for a long time, how did she I can't even imagine who this young man is...

"Wow, this Huaxia person is really charming. My heart is pounding until now. Damn it, I will come here to drink tea every day from now on!"

"Me too, I suddenly have a strong interest in "tea culture", I want to represent these "green tea""

"I feel that these teas taste better than coffee. I still have this taste in my mouth. Why didn't I know that Huaxia's "tea" is so delicious!"

"Ah, I don't know if that Chinese man is married, I want to have a romantic relationship with him!"

"Forget it, this Chinese man is rich at first glance!"

"..."

The friends left the tea room chattering, and kept discussing the charming oriental man in the car, and several girls were blushing.

Everyone bought a "Tea Classic" and a tea set.

Sanna listened to the discussion, but kept thinking about who this Chinese person was...

Just as the car was about to drive home, she suddenly had a shock!He is Zhou Yang!

He turned out to be Zhou Yang!

In the classical music circle, a creative genius who is rare in a century!

She stopped the car immediately, and under the doubts of her friends, the car turned around and drove back to the teahouse.

After driving to the teahouse, she ran out of the car and rushed into the teahouse...

But I found that the tea room where the guests were not counted before, was overcrowded and surrounded by countless reporters.

She squeezed around in the crowd, searching for Zhou Yang's figure, but she couldn't find it after searching for a long time.

When she asked the clerks in cheongsam who the owner of the teahouse was, the clerks pointed to another thin black young man in the crowd.

She looked at the young man, then shook her head violently!

He is not Zhou Yang!
Then when she asked the clerk again if "Zhou Yang" was in the store, the clerks all shook their heads...

Just after she left the tea room disappointed, she saw a girl in a cheongsam running out.

"Ma'am, do you want to learn how to make tea? There is a free class, do you want to learn more about the free class?"

"We will start the class soon, and the number of students who register for the first phase is very limited..."

With a smile on her face, the girl handed the flyer to Sanna.

Sanna took the flyer, looked at it for a while, and then fell into deep thought.

..............................

"Mr. Zhou, free courses... This, we will lose a lot of money, right? And we have to hire the most famous tea art master in China, even the tea sellers can't make money..."

"It is difficult to change an era. What we sell is not tea, but a kind of culture, traditional culture. It is necessary to invest in the early stage. Most of the people who come to see tea now are attracted by "Brokeback Mountain" People who come here, after the popularity of "Brokeback Mountain", they will leave with them. They want to maintain a long-term popularity at will, so that people can form a concept and cultural acceptance. For example, "coffee" is also a Western thing, but now we Almost every county in Huaxia has a coffee shop with milk tea...Have you ever thought about it, if one day, our tea culture in China also changes its habits?"

"..."

Late at night.

The Tranquility Tea Room was finally much quieter.

When Liu Gang saw the plan that Zhou Yang handed him, he was taken aback, and then looked at Zhou Yang.

But Zhou Yang showed a smile.

Immediately afterwards, he looked at the tea room again, narrowing his eyes.

""Spider-Man" is also shooting a scene in this coffee shop..."

He nodded, put on the mask and hat casually, and under Liu Gang's bewilderment, he turned and left the Tranquility Tea Room.

After walking out of the tea room, another scene from the movie "The Silence of the Lambs" appeared in Zhou Yang's mind. After thinking about it for a while, he finally chose to call Mr. Anthony.

"Mr. Anthony, I'm Zhou Yang. I know this phone call is very presumptuous, but... I hope to talk to you again. On the premise of not affecting your contract in Hollywood as much as possible, I hope you can participate in my other movie A movie... no, not Spider-Man, but The Silence of the Lambs, and after Spider-Man is done, I'm going to make this movie..."

　There are only [-] words today...

　　I am a piece of trash!
