Unlike March in the capital, which has begun to warm up, March in New York is still swinging in the winter, with the temperature at noon being only 5 degrees and the wind blowing coldly.
At each entrance and exit of the international airport terminal, people wearing all kinds of down jackets, woolen hats and gloves crowded in and out.
In the square, Xiaozhong Luo was holding a duffel bag in his right hand and holding a mobile phone to his ear in his left hand to make a call. He looked anxious: "Mom, don't worry, I will figure out the money matter."
After some time, Luo Xiaozhong comforted his mother, put his cell phone into the left pocket of his black windbreaker, raised his hand to straighten the flat brown leather hat on his head, and slid his fingers down to pull the red-framed square on the bridge of his nose.
glasses, and finally put his left hand in his pocket, pulled his suitcase and walked towards the terminal with a sad look on his face.
He is from Guangdong Province and works as an entertainment reporter and paparazzi. He currently works for a news company in Xiangjiang and is in the foreign affairs department, specializing in international entertainment news. After sending the news back to the company in Xiangjiang, the company sends it to the mainland.
Southeast Asia and even Asia as a whole.
Entertainment reporters like him are top talents in the entire domestic circle that is engaged in this field. Not only do they have to understand foreign languages, but they also have to track and secretly photograph people in a country like the United States, where safety and security are highly uncertain.
.
People in the industry often joke that you are risking your life to make money. If you are discovered and beaten to death by bodyguards, no one will collect your body.
Luo Xiaozhong may be lucky, or he may be experienced. He has been engaged in such a high-risk profession for several years without any accidents, and he has also earned a lot of savings.
However, something unexpected happened, and my sister in the family suddenly became seriously ill.
His savings and his father's were almost wiped out, but he could barely save his sister's life. Her sister, who was still lying in the intensive care unit, still needed a large amount of money for recuperation and follow-up physical therapy.
Originally, he wanted to change his career when he returned to China this time, either as a normal reporter or in marketing. Working in this risky industry was too tiring, but his sister's incident disrupted his plan.
The family needs money, and he is the only one they can rely on at the moment.
He plans to go home first and then move to South Korea to continue his career.
At present, the Korean Wave wave is gradually gaining momentum in China, and South Korean artists are attracting a lot of attention. Going to the hometown of Korean Wave artists to find some information and send it back to China will definitely surprise the audience and fans, and their commissions are expected to be very generous.
With this in mind, Luo Xiaozhong walked into the terminal building and walked towards the ticket collection window, but his eyes casually glanced at him, which made him surprised.
"Chu Xuan? Liu Yifei?"
Luo Xiaozhong stopped, mingled with the crowd and looked in the direction of a family of three. It was obvious that this family had just gotten off the plane.
What surprised him was why Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei came to the United States? Tourism? Business?
But if it’s a business deal, it will definitely be publicized in China in advance, so why is there no news?
And if it was just enterprise-level business dealings in the Brilliant Era, then Wang Jinhua should be there too.
"She must be here for a trip." He muttered in his mind.
"No." He frowned again.
Looking at the large and small luggage of the family and the accompanying team, who brings so many things when traveling? Isn’t it troublesome?
Just in time, Liu Xiaoli took out the down jacket from the luggage bag brought by her assistant. Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei took it and put it on to adapt to the colder weather in New York.
But Liu Xiaoli accidentally took out one or two pieces of clothing from her luggage bag when she was picking up the clothes. They fell to the ground, and she bent down to get them.
Luo Xiaozhong put his fingers on the frame of his glasses, adjusted his glasses, squinted and saw that the clothes on the ground were short-sleeved.
Short sleeves?!... Luo Zhongzhong was stunned for a moment. Could it be that spring, summer, autumn and winter clothes are all brought with him for travel? Then this is nonsense travel, this is preparation for a long-term stay in the United States!
However, the news about Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei coming to the United States was not revealed at all. Otherwise, given the popularity of Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei, he would have often logged into domestic micro-entertainment to browse the news through the wall during this period.
"Coming to the United States to live permanently? What are you doing?"
"Liu Yifei is an American nationality. Could it be that Chu Xuan also changed his nationality?"
"Or is it that Bright Times is planning to open a branch in the United States? Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei's family will come first to explore the road and stay for a long time?"
Luo Xiaozhong's thoughts were racing, but he got too few clues, and his thoughts were limited to guesses without accurate answers.
The next moment, his thoughts changed and he recalled the news value of Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei in China.
Ever since the romance between Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei was made public, these two people have never shied away from their boyfriend-girlfriend relationship in any situation.
Audiences love to see this, so entertainment reporters and paparazzi often photographed the two of them traveling hand in hand during the period after their romance became public, and each of them made a lot of money.
But as long as you see too much of anything, it will lose its novelty.
As early as half a year ago, the intimate scenes between Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei were no longer a hot topic for the audience. The topic was limited to the fan circle, and the effectiveness of secretly filming them was not as good as before.
The main reason is that the audience has become accustomed to the two people being together. Long-term intimate photos were secretly photographed on the Internet, which also reassured the audience about the relationship between the two. Now when they look at the intimate photos of the two, most people click on screenshots to collect them.
Occasionally commenting one or two words can no longer stir up enthusiasm.
In short, the daily photos of Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei are not of high news value in China, and are far inferior to the warm-up publicity of their works.
Since these two people have been debuting for many years but have not many works, the works of Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei are obviously more interesting to the audience than the relationship that reassures the audience and the intimate photos that can often be seen.
"Come here to pick up the movie?" Luo Xiaozhong's eyes lit up. If Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei came to the United States to film a movie, it means that these two people have gone abroad. This is big news.
"No." He shook his head again. He saw the two people's accompanying team one by one. Except for a few men who were obviously bodyguards, there was no makeup artist among the women.
He has been in the entertainment industry for many years, and he has to be followed and secretly photographed all the time. He can tell who is a bodyguard, who is a makeup artist, and who is an assistant, just by looking at the expressions on their faces.
He was sure that there were no makeup artists in the accompanying team of Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei, so Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei were not here to audition for the role.
"What are you here for?" Luo Xiaozhong muttered again, but actually he was having a tangled ideological struggle in his heart.
According to domestic public knowledge, Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei have never been abroad together.
Under the understanding of the domestic public, there are more couple photos of Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei seen on the Internet.
According to the interpretation of the domestic public, Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei are very salty and rarely appear in offline events. They probably care more about their own works and spend a long time preparing for their works and roles.
So, have you seen the photos of Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei going abroad together? No!
Moreover, it seems that he was the only one who discovered this scene. If he can capture something, it will be exclusive news.
But can we really capture any breaking news?
Luo Xiaozhong hesitated. Most of his savings were used for his sister's medical treatment. He didn't know how long the money on the card would allow him to stay in the United States.
If you don't capture any breaking news, it may be in vain.
But if any news is really captured, with the popularity of Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei, they will definitely earn a lot of money.
Principal Luo hesitated endlessly, not knowing what to make. Seeing that Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei were about to leave, he gritted his teeth, turned around and ran towards the window quickly.
He didn't go to collect the ticket, but to refund it.
He has no money now, and he can't share the burden of his mother and father when he returns home. It happened that a very popular couple artist in China appeared at the airport in the United States for unknown reasons, and it was obvious that the purpose was unusual, and it was most likely that he discovered it exclusively.
.
Under such circumstances, he keenly discovered the news value that could be created and decided to give it a try.
I went through the refund procedure at the window and looked back at the whereabouts of the family. Fortunately, the family was parked in the square and seemed to be waiting for the bus. This made Luo Xiaozhong, who had been waiting for a long time in front of the window, breathe a sigh of relief.
"Damn it, it's so long to go through all the procedures, and you can still pick up girls on the phone at the same time. This class is so comfortable." He cursed and took the refund money from the window.
"What are you talking about?" A white man in uniform at the window couldn't understand Chinese, but after seeing what Luo said in a series, he put down his phone and asked curiously.
Principal Luo was startled and replied: "Fuck you, uncle."
"What?" The white man looked confused.
Not wanting to argue with him, Principal Luo said in English: "It means you are so efficient in doing things."
"Thank you." The white man smiled slightly and said politely.
"You're welcome, sir." Colonel Luo saluted with his two fingers together in front of his temples, turned around, picked up his suitcase, and chased after the family.
In the square outside the terminal building, it was cold under the cloudy sky.
Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei put their hoods over their heads to block the wind, and both wore sunglasses and stood next to Liu Xiaoli, as if they were back in the winter in China. Liu Yifei habitually put her hands into Chu Xuan's pockets and let Chu Xuan hold them tightly to keep warm.
Unlike in China, where you can arrange transportation in advance wherever you go, Bright Times does not have such channels abroad. The contact information in this regard was given to Liu Xiaoli by her aunt Zhou Wenqiong.
After getting off the plane, Liu Xiaoli called for a car, and a group of people were waiting for the car to arrive.
"You have slept on the plane for so long and you are still tired?" Chu Xuan looked down slightly and saw Liu Yifei leaning on her shoulder, looking half asleep and half awake.
"I don't know why, I just feel tired and want to sleep." Liu Yifei said softly.
Liu Xiaoli glanced at her daughter, put down the two people hugging her, reached out to take off a small part of her hood, and touched her daughter's forehead to test the temperature.
"I don't have a fever, I'm really tired." She put down her hands and folded her arms.
"I'm fine." Liu Yifei leaned on Chu Xuan's shoulder and shook her head: "The main reason is that it was uncomfortable to fall asleep on the plane, and the plane kept shaking, and I was woken up several times by the shaking."
Liu Yifei raised her head, left Chu Xuan's shoulder, looked at her mother, then looked at Chu Xuan, and said: "It's not like you. The plane is so shaking and you still don't wake up. You sleep so soundly. I'm convinced too."
Chu Xuan and Liu Xiaoli couldn't help but laugh. Liu Xiaoli said: "It is probably because the plane encounters airflow from time to time, which also means that Xiaoxuan and I have good sleep quality."
Liu Yifei yawned, tilted her head and leaned on Chu Xuan's shoulder.
Liu Xiaoli added: "You must be thinking about something in your mind, so the quality of your sleep is poor. You are probably thinking about what to do if Xiaoxuan leaves after a while, and how should I live alone, eh."
Liu Xiaoli also deliberately sighed heavily.
Chu Xuan made a "puff" sound and laughed.
Liu Yifei raised her head from Chu Xuan's shoulder, looked at her mother, covered her mouth and looked overjoyed.
The bodyguards behind him suppressed laughter, and the two assistant ladies were also amused.
Liu Xiaoli seemed to have vividly interpreted her daughter's inner state, which added to the fun and peace of mind for everyone in this foreign country.
"Let's go." A nanny car pulled over from the driveway. Liu Xiaoli looked at the license plate number and took the lead to walk forward.
Chu Xuan, Liu Yifei and the team followed, and the group got in the car and headed to the booked hotel.
What they didn't know was that a taxi was following them.
After arriving at the hotel, the family stayed in the executive suite and the entourage stayed in other rooms.
Liu Xiaoli swiped the card to open the door. Liu Yifei walked a few steps and threw herself on the sofa: "I want to sleep."
Chu Xuan opened the bedroom door and looked around, looking around at the hotel's environment. Hearing what Liu Yifei said, he turned his head and said, "It's best not to sleep, otherwise you won't be able to get over the jet lag again."
Liu Xiaoli looked at the opposite side and said in line with Chu Xuan's words: "You have a good sleep now, because you won't be able to sleep again at night."
After hearing what Chu Xuan and her mother said, Liu Yifei sat up from the sofa, took off her black boots, and sat cross-legged on the sofa.
She leaned back on the sofa, raised her head and hung it behind the sofa, looking at Chu Xuan's back.
When Chu Xuan looked around at the door of the bedroom for a moment and turned around, she suddenly smiled at Chu Xuan: "Why did we stay up all night yesterday?"
As soon as these words came out, both Chu Xuan and Liu Xiaoli were happy.
"You brought it up."
"You have to stay up all night."
Chu Xuan and Liu Xiaoli said it almost at the same time.
"There is no punishment for fighting landlords all night long. I have never done such a thing in my life." Liu Xiaoli came over.
Chu Xuan waved his hand and said, "I haven't done it either."
Liu Yifei was laughing silly for a long time. She was lying on the sofa and laughing, making goose noises from time to time.
Chu Xuan and Liu Xiaoli looked at Liu Yifei who was very happy in front of the sofa, shook their heads and sat down respectively.
Liu Yifei sat up, hugged the pillow, and said, "Then what are you doing now?"
There were still some melon seeds left over that Liu Xiaoli had specially bought to eat on the plane. Chu Xuan grabbed a handful and put them to his lips. He glanced at the playing cards on the hotel shelf and came up with an idea: "Continue to fight the Landlord?"
Liu Xiaoli took a sip of water and tightened the bottle cap. When she heard Chu Xuan's suggestion, she couldn't laugh or cry: "I don't want to play landlords anymore in my life, and her level is so bad that she never considers who is the landlord and who is her teammate when she plays cards.
As long as she can suppress her, she can suppress her teammates' cards so hard that you, your teammate, will feel like you have a grudge against her."
Chu Xuan turned his head to look at Liu Yifei, and they laughed at the same time.
Liu Yifei tilted her head and fell on Chu Xuan's shoulder. She was originally very sleepy, but she was sober after being complained by Chu Xuan and her mother one after another.
"Go to New Haven early tomorrow. Let's go to bed early today and watch TV. After ordering food and dinner, we will rest." Liu Xiaoli said, making a decision on the next entertainment activities to pass the time.
New York is not far from New Haven, just over a hundred kilometers away. You can either take a train or a bus.
Compared with the speed of American trains and the imaginable strange smell of buses, a family of three chose to rent a nanny car to travel.
"As producers, you just want to watch the programs and TV series here, maybe you can learn something." Liu Xiaoli added.
Liu Xiaoli said so, and Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei stopped talking.
Just like that, turn on the TV, what is the program format in America? What are the differences in the editing and arrangement of TV series? The family looked at it with a slightly curious look.
However, Liu Yifei, who was already tired, was awakened a little by Chu Xuan and her mother's teasing, but as the time passed by watching TV, she fell asleep again.
"Hey, don't sleep." Chu Xuan pinched Liu Yifei's face.
Liu Yifei came back to her senses in an instant, bulging her eyes and patted Chu Xuan: "Oh, you..."
She was awakened by Chu Xuan's voice. She wanted to say something to Chu Xuan, but when she thought that Chu Xuan would not let her sleep, and it was her own idea to stay up all night to adjust the time difference, she felt funny again. It was unreasonable.
Got happy.
Liu Xiaoli was cracking melon seeds and watching TV, watching this interesting scene happily.
At six o'clock in the afternoon, she asked the hotel waiter to bring dinner, had a steak, and watched TV for a while, and Liu Yifei was finally liberated.
"I really want to sleep."
At 7:30 in the evening, Liu Yifei got into bed, shrugged her head, and threw herself on the pillow.
Chu Xuan covered her with a quilt, went to the bathroom and took a shower. After going to bed, he turned off the lights in the bedroom and fell asleep.
