"I'm Matsushima Aoi, please take care of me!"

The two of them greeted Yu Xiaodi politely, and Yu Xiaodi responded with a smile. She was still in a good mood. She did not feel any pressure from the two Japanese girls. On the contrary, Li Yan had just explained to them that she was His girlfriend makes her very happy.

Shinohara's future Chinese proficiency, because it was too poor in the past, seems to have improved significantly now, while Matsushima Aoi's Chinese proficiency has not changed much. With their two levels, there is no problem in simple communication with Yu Xiaodi. Because Yu Since Xiao Di is here, they can't be too enthusiastic about Li Yan.

Li Yan helped them carry their luggage, went outside, and went to pick up the car first. Yu Xiaodi also drove here by herself. Her sports car could only carry two people. It was no problem to pick up Li Yan alone. Now, We can only let the two of them get into Li Yan's car.

…

At this point, there is no problem. Originally, Yu Xiaodi had met these two guests and knew that Li Yan did not lie to her. And he had to send them to the hotel, arrange meals, etc., and she should go home by herself.

However, the two Japanese girls are also young and beautiful, and they have just been getting along for a while, so they are quite compatible and have some topics to talk about. Xiaodi estimates that Li Yan greeting him alone may not be interesting. If she is here, there will always be topics between girls. There were more people, at least they wouldn't be left in the cold, so they didn't take the initiative to ask to go back.

Li Yan also told her the address of the hotel where he was going and asked her to go with him.

Driving away, Shinohara Mirai and Matsushima Aoi were in the back seat, and Li Yan was driving in front. The atmosphere became a little quieter. Perhaps because of the appearance of Yu Xiaodi, many of the speeches and topics they had prepared were lost. It's inconvenient to speak.

"The city is so warm and comfortable. I really want to stay here for a few more days!"

"Yes, warm."

Not knowing what to talk about, the two of them felt that it was not good to be silent, so they talked about the most basic weather.

Li Yan felt that they were a little unnatural, and after thinking for a moment, he understood. While driving, he sorted out his words. Then he said slowly, so that they with poor Chinese proficiency could more easily understand: "Actually, I'm very happy that you are here. I didn't bring my girlfriend here specially, and I didn't want to imply anything. She met me here by accident, so I asked her to wait together."

Hearing his words, the faces of the two of them were obviously more relaxed. In any case, they are also girls, and they took the initiative to come to China to find Li Yan, which was quite shameful. If Li Yan was too busy to dodge, no If you are willing to receive a reception and let the other business staff of Paradise Group give you a formulaic reception, they will definitely be bored and leave quickly.

But now that someone else is here, but they show up with their girlfriends, it is easy for people to feel like: I have a girlfriend now, please be careful, I don’t want to get closer to you anymore. !

To them, it was just a tactful rejection, which would of course be embarrassing. But now Li Yan explained it in person, which made them feel more at ease.

"Li Yan, if we... come over suddenly, will we cause trouble to you?" Shinohara said a little apologetically in the future.

Matsushima Aoi also said: "Especially... tomorrow is Valentine's Day. You were supposed to accompany your girlfriend, but now you are asked by the company to accompany us. It must be very embarrassing for you, right? In fact, we originally wanted to be in China

I came here after the New Year. I just inquired about the Paradise Group’s holiday and you may not have time. I told you later and agreed to it before deciding to come. I just wanted to come as soon as possible and did not come here on purpose..."

After meeting Yu Xiaodi, she felt the need to explain so as not to let Li Yan misunderstand that they came here specially to pester him for Valentine's Day.

Li Yan smiled and shook his head: "It doesn't matter. No matter when I come here, I'm very happy. Because I'm busy and don't have time to go over and visit you, I'm actually quite embarrassed to ask you to come here."

"No, no, we are sorry."

"We took the liberty!"

Everyone's politeness made them feel that they lacked the intimacy they had in the past.

Li Yan thought that if he wanted them to play happily for a few days, he would eliminate the barriers caused by time and space as soon as possible. So he did not explain or be polite. Instead, he talked about some interesting topics: "That's right.

, do you know? After I came back from Japan last time, I stopped doing my previous job. The company opened a new film company and I was in charge of it. I also took the time and shot a movie in just a few months.

The romantic movie has been released and is being screened at the Chinese Film Market these days."

"Really? That's amazing!"

Shinohara Mirai and Matsushima Aoi both cheered in surprise. This topic also made them drag away from their previous unnaturalness, and looked at Li Yan with admiring eyes from behind.

"It turns out that you can also make movies! And it can be shot in a few months, which is really amazing!"

"I like Wong Kar-Wai's movies, but they are too slow... Lee Sang is still the best!"

Many people like Wong Kar-wai's movies. They think the dialogues, atmosphere, music, and pictures are all very good, and they are nothing short of post-modern deconstruction. But more people think that Wong Kar-wai's movies are just minor qualifications, and they are pretentious over form than content.

Forced. Therefore, he has never been mainstream. Whether in Hong Kong or the mainland, he has never been a big seller.

But it is undeniable that Wong Kar-Wai can definitely be regarded as one of the few influential directors in Chinese-language films around the world. Of course, in North America, he is also a niche, even in Europe, where he is the most respected.

He is also a great director of literary films. In Japan, Wong Kar-wai is also quite famous.

I think back to those days, "2o46" was prepared before "In the Mood for Love", it was the time when Japan's idol Kimura Okami was at his most popular, but Takuya-san never dated, and even after filming his son, he was able to take advantage of it, "2o46"

When the movie will end is still far away. By the time the movie came out and was filmed in 2016, Kimura Takuya's role was only a little bit, and he still accompanied Tony Leung Chiu-wai to play soy sauce. Apart from going to Cannes with him, he gained nothing, I guess.

This is the most depressing thing for him.

Seeing the reaction of the two of them in the rearview mirror, Li Yan was a little amused. Matsushima Aoi is very interested in Chinese, and Shinohara Mirai is half Chinese. It is not surprising that they would be interested in Chinese movies. But they will

He contacted the director and praised him for shooting faster than Wong Kar-Wai, which made him happy.

"Ahem... Actually, you have misunderstood. I run a film company and invested in a movie. I am not a director or an actor. The director is unknown, but there are several famous stars in Hong Kong and Taiwan among the actors.

.Perhaps you have heard of..." Li Yan chatted with them about the starring role in "Happy Together".

After listening, they knew that this was a misunderstanding. Shinohara Mirai and Matsushima Aoi were a little embarrassed, but they were not disappointed. After all, Li Yan gave them the impression of a mysterious and carefree man. To be honest

If he is a movie director, he might not play with them.

Starting from the chat with several leading actors of Happy Together, they also talked about the Chinese celebrities they knew. Li Yan discovered that he didn’t even have a purchasing agent, so he could definitely chat with them!

This is because they are not girls of the same age in China. What they like and understand are not some rapidly changing young idols that Li Yan does not understand. They are Jackie Chan, Jet Li, Chow Yun, Stephen Chow, Andy Lau, Leslie Cheung, and Faye Wong.

Waiting for the older generation of movie stars and singers.

This is not only a gap between different countries and cultures, but also an issue of influence.

Japan has always been at the forefront of Asian pop culture, and its pop culture started early, is complete, and sound. Hong Kong pop songs used to cover Japanese songs, including many familiar classics that were covers of Japanese songs; many Hong Kong and Taiwan stars also imitated Japanese stars, and Hong Kong dramas

They also often copy Japanese dramas; while the mainland's popular songs, movies and TV shows started later, and they started by imitating Hong Kong and Taiwan. Therefore, even if they are developed now, there are still gaps in some aspects. Except for the older generation who make kung fu movies and other Chinese

In addition to conquering the world with their unique characteristics, the influence of young idols is generally limited to the local area.

The influence of culture is directly proportional to the strength of the country and the range of language coverage. Just like the Chinese know many American stars, Japanese and Korean stars also know some, but what about Thai and Indian stars? It is difficult to count just a few. Japan

The film market has long been the second largest market after North America; China only entered the top ten in the world in 2009. This is the gap.

Chapter 294 Huang Ying’s unexpected relief

Li Yan drove very quickly. When he arrived at the hotel, he settled in first, took them to the guest room, and then called Huang Ying.

Yu Xiaodi also arrived shortly after and went to the hotel room with them to accompany them.

Huang Ying had already arrived at the place Li Yan mentioned and had been waiting nearby for a while. She also saw the five-star hotel here. She had also been thinking wildly, should she drink alcohol while having dinner? Would that be possible?

How about coming directly to the hotel to book a room after dinner?

She had been waiting for Li Yan's call, but she didn't expect that when she heard his call, he asked her to come to the hotel and go directly to the guest room. This made her stutter a little: "Ah? Wine... hotel? guest...

...Room? Have you already booked a room?”

Isn’t this too straightforward? Why don’t we have dinner first to build up the atmosphere?

But she thought of another problem. Li Yan still had to go home in the evening, and he might not be able to stay with her for the night. It was already night, so he had to hurry up. **A moment is worth a thousand pieces of gold, so let’s not eat it yet...

The same is true for her. If she was alone at home like before, there would be no problem even if she didn't go back for one night. But now that her mother is back, although she has a nanny to take care of her, she can't go back too late. She really needs to hurry up.

Thinking like this, she didn't even have time to think about the sadness, and said with a nervous and apprehensive mood: "Okay... then hurry up... you wait for me... I'll be there right away..."

Li Yan was stunned by her words. Have you opened a room? Hurry up?

Sweat...Does she think I just want her to come over and do it? No matter how hungry and thirsty I am, I won't be so impatient!

"Ahem...I'll go downstairs to pick you up!"

"Okay, okay... come to the door!" Huang Ying immediately shouted. She has not traveled much in her life, and she usually has no chance to stay in a hotel. Even if she needs it, she cannot stay in a five-star hotel.

Hotel. So although she knew that the hotel was nearby and could see how to get to the door, she had never been to a place like this and felt very uneasy. She didn’t know how to deal with it when she went in, whether anyone would ask, and how to answer.

, how to get there, where to look, whether I will be regarded as a call girl, etc.

These problems were bothering her, but since Li Yan had already opened a room inside and was waiting for her, she had no choice but to go in. Now that she heard Li Yan say that he would come down to pick her up, of course she agreed immediately.

Li Yan has stayed in many hotels and booked rooms with different people. In addition, Shinohara Mirai, Matsushima Aoi and Yu Xiaodi are here at the moment. He has not considered Huang Ying's relationship.

. He wanted to go down to pick her up because he wanted to explain it to her face to face, so that she wouldn't let her mistakenly believe that he came here to sacrifice himself. He was just eating tonight, not eating her. Otherwise, if she spilled the beans when he came up, it would be wonderful.

He said hello to the women and said that he would go down first to let them settle in. He would meet them in the lobby below and then go have dinner together.

Yu Xiaodi saw that he was on the phone. Although she didn't know who he was calling, it was to receive a company client. Maybe it was related to the company, or maybe Wen Qianyi was coming. He was out, and of course she had to do her best to be a landlord.

, promised to greet them both.

…

When Li Yan came down and was at the door of the hotel, he saw Huang Ying hesitating outside.

She had never been to a place like this. She saw all the luxury cars coming and going, so she walked here by herself. The grand entrance made her feel nervous.

She came well prepared today. The clothes she wore were expensive ones that she bought with Li Yan. But even though they were expensive clothes, the bag she usually carried was a cheap one. When she came here,

She felt that she was completely out of place. Although no one paid special attention to her, she always felt that whether it was the doorman, the security guard, or other guests, they all seemed to be staring at her, which made it even more difficult for her to muster the courage to walk in.

.

"Huang Ying, I'm here." Li Yan walked over quickly.

At this moment, he had already seen Huang Ying's embarrassment and helplessness, and felt distressed. He quickly put his arms around her shoulders and gave her psychological comfort.

"You're here..." Seeing him coming, Huang Ying felt unnatural, with a shy smile on her face. She was beside him, hugged by his hands, and she seemed helpless just now.

, immediately seemed to have found Yi, let alone a five-star hotel, even the residence of a high-ranking official or nobleman, I was not afraid.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have let you wait outside alone..." Li Yan touched her back and said apologetically: "I know you never come to a place like this. In fact, I didn't mean to do it.

I brought you to the hotel because I have work tonight and have to receive a guest who just flew over from Japan. This is the room reserved for them, and I just picked them up from the airport."
