    "The Da Vinci Code" was released on November 30, but the promotion started in September. Various stills were first sent to the public through print media, and then online platforms such as Facebook and Yahoo.  In the stills, the focus is mainly on various mysterious numbers, symbols, religious rituals, and buildings. This is also the selling point of the novel and the show, and it is also the easiest to attract everyone's attention.  Then, in early November, the trailer started, and the main creators such as Tom Hanks also began to appear on various media pages. By the week of the release, the publicity had reached fever pitch.  Information related to the film began to bombard the United States through print media, the Internet, outdoor advertising and other forms. This is also because the best-selling novel of "The Da Vinci Code" gave Empire Pictures and Dreamweeks a lot of confidence, so in  In this era, a publicity budget of up to 30 million US dollars is easily spent.  The promotion of "Spider-Man" has also begun, but it has not yet reached the hottest point. As the largest shareholder of Empire Pictures, Lee Chung-hee naturally appeared at the hottest moment of the promotion of "The Da Vinci Code".  Today, at three o'clock in the afternoon, he, Tom Hanks, and Madonna appeared on the scene of "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" to record the latest episode, which is known as the biggest episode in history.  This year is only 2001. In another time and space, "The Ellen Show" should have only started in 2003, but here, it started in 1999, and gradually caught up with "The Oprah Show", and Ellen was also  Known as the new generation of talk show queen after Oprah!  "Why do you always hide in South Korea and goof off?" Before the show started, Madonna gave Lee Jung Hee a friendly punch as soon as she arrived.  Li Zhengxi smiled and shrugged.  "There are no paparazzi in Korea. I don't want people to keep chasing me about my scandal with you." Then, while Tom Hanks and Allen laughed, he said seriously: "Didn't I release a record?  My schedule is very busy, sister!¡± Speaking of records, three months have passed, but the sales of "ibelieve" have exceeded one million, reaching 1,023,600.  number.  And it¡¯s still growing.  This is undoubtedly a surprise. Of course, I have to say that this time I have to thank the fans of hot, who contributed at least 100,000 copies.  In this way, that is to say, his system A-level task caused by the purchase of "Myme Mory" has basically been completed, and he only needs to wait for him to release a film after "Winter Sonata".  So, he is quite relaxed now.  "I listened," Madonna nodded.  "It's really good, the sound and rhythm are very good. Tell me, when will the English album be released!" Tom Hanks has heard that Lee Chung-hee has released a record, but he doesn't know how. But Madonna said this, which naturally proves that it is not bad.  However, he was also interested and said with a smile: "Don't forget to give me one when the time comes!" Li Zhengxi could only smile bitterly and shrug, "I'm really busy. You see, I have a TV series in Korea soon.  It's about to be filmed, and then I finish my work there. You should also know that I am also starring in "Pirates of the Caribbean" that Empire Pictures is preparing. To be honest, writing other novels such as "Escape from Christmas" will take time.  , I am standing here chatting with you, and I feel very uneasy, I should do something serious" Everyone was happy, but Madonna frowned again, "Why are you still accepting the Korean one?  TV series, I mean, you should focus on the United States. After all, the Korean market is too small, and it is only the Korean market, while the United States is for the whole world" Lee Jung Hee smiled!  Laughing, the system has begun to stipulate that works must be produced in South Korea every year. Of course, there is no way to mention this. "Well, starting from next year, there will be more big moves in the United States, but I will not lose it in South Korea.  I still have my company there, as well as my grandmother, girlfriend and other family members, as well as friends!¡± When he said this, everyone understood and thought he did not forget his roots.  Just chatting about this and that, after a while, the recording time came. Allen went out first, and then said excitedly to the audience, "Today's guest lineup is the strongest in history.  To be honest, I was very excited and nervous when I saw them backstage" The audience who came to the scene naturally knew who was coming and came to support them. Therefore, she acted mysteriously.  Some people cheered and some booed, but the atmosphere immediately became lively, and Allen invited Li Zhengxi and the other three people out with a smile.  Lee Chung-hee is first, Madonna is second, and Tom Hanks is the last. This is the potential ranking of seniority, not status. In terms of status, Lee Chung-hee is not slightly lower than the other two.    After all, he owns a company, and the company is very prosperous.  "Wow, to be honest, to this day, I'm still surprised that three of them can appear in the same situation at the same time," Allen said slightly exaggeratedly, but to be honest, Madonna and Tom Hanks come together, it's really  It¡¯s not easy, so that¡¯s understandable.  "Vincent and Madonna are investors in the company," Allen continued, and glanced at Tom Hanks with a smile, "And this time, Tom, you are just a worker for them!" These words shocked everyone.  They all laughed, and Tom Hanks also laughed, and continued: "When you say this, I seem to feel that I am inferior, and even feel a little aggrieved. You see, they are all rich and wealthy people."  The boss is very stingy when it comes to salary" Hearing this, everyone was naturally happy again. Tom Hanks is one of the few members of the 20 million club in Hollywood, and his salary is clearly marked.  , many people know that Li Zhengxi and the others cannot lose one point.  Jokes aside, the fun was over, and Allen continued, "Tell me about the relationship between the three of you. Tom, you don't seem to be familiar with Madonna, right? Vincent is like a bridge, he knows you two.  , and was rumored to have an affair with Madonna" So far.  The audience booed again.  Tom Hanks also laughed and said: "I don't know what the relationship between the two of them is. I'm just a paid worker!" After saying this, he said seriously: "Well, Madonna and I will probably meet  Let¡¯s meet twice.¡± Then he looked at Madonna, and after she nodded, she continued: ¡°We¡¯re really not familiar with each other, and we¡¯re not in the same industry, so it¡¯s hard to get involved even at award ceremonies!¡± ¡°It¡¯s He Wen!  Center. We first met at the award ceremony." Tom Hanks also glanced at Li Zhengxi and said with a smile: "But earlier, I probably read his book and thought his writing was great.  Then, he was also a very straightforward young man. When he met me, he talked to me about letting me play the leading role in "The Da Vinci Code"!  Once. And he didn¡¯t seem to be famous at that time?¡± ¡°He was very famous,¡± Tom Hanks said with a smile: ¡°The Da Vinci Code was already a best-seller all over the world.¡± After thinking about it,  "It is indeed a bit abrupt, but he is a very polite guy, and his temper is quite good!" Amid everyone's laughter, he continued: "However, I was busy working on "Band of Brothers" at that time, and that was also  It was my first time to invest as a small boss, so I was very nervous! "Tom Hanks has a very gentle personality, but he is also quite funny. In front of him, he used his talk show skills and kept everyone entertained.  Then, when Ellen asked Lee Chung-hee, Lee Chung-hee shrugged with an innocent look on his face, "He stole all my lines, so I thought, he might as well continue!" The Ellen Show aired  It only lasts about forty minutes, but it was very long during recording, so there is no need to worry about neglecting anyone. Everyone has so many questions waiting for them, and they have been prepared in advance.  ¡°How is his acting skills?¡± Allen continued to ask Tom Hanks, and also pointed his hand towards Lee Chung-hee.  "Not sure," Tom Hanks answered honestly, "I remember he only came to the set three times. He is very busy, busier than me!" He laughed and thought again, "It's him.  Regarding the director's job, because he has communicated with me, I can say that he has a professional level!" Allen nodded, then turned to Li Zhengxi and asked, "I have heard something about Sam Ray, the director of "Spider-Man"  Mi praised your acting skills, have you ever thought about winning the Oscar for Best Actor like Tom? ""A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier," Li Zhengxi said casually, "Are you satisfied with this answer?"  "Why did you answer so coolly?" Allen said, laughing, and then asked him, "I heard that you also released a record, right? But it's in Korean?" After Li Zhengxi nodded, she laughed  He smiled and said to the audience, "Let's listen to a short piece. He wrote the lyrics, composed the music and arranged the music. He is really a genius, right? Now it's time to see how he sings!" The melodious and melodious "ibelieve"  The soothing melody sounded, catching everyone's feelings from the beginning. Then, after listening to the chorus, it stopped, and Allen said to everyone: "How is it, does it sound good?" Amid everyone's laughter,  Asked about Tom Hanks and Madonna, the former smiled and nodded, "Although I don't understand the lyrics, the melody is pretty good, and his voice is also very clear and clear" Madonna smiled and said: "I don't understand at all.  Strange, he had alreadyI sang it in my recording studio." Amid everyone's uproar, he continued: "His ability to write lyrics, compose and arrange music has been known for a long time. He also wrote a song for one of my artists, and it will be released soon.  He is about to release a film, so I know him quite well!  " "Your relationship is indeed extraordinary!  Allen joked, and then asked Madonna amidst everyone's laughter, "Do you think he has hope of winning a Grammy?"  " "I have never had any doubt about this," Madonna said seriously, "Honestly, his singing skills are beyond our imagination. I can even preview it. If he releases an English album, he will immediately shock everyone.  Lamy, I can't escape his light!  " "Wow, this is a very high praise," Allen praised, and asked Li Zhengxi, "Then when will you release an English album? I know, you just said backstage that you have been super busy recently, but you  Isn¡¯t there a rough timetable?  " "There's really no way to be sure. Is it too broad to say three to five years?" Li Zhengxi smiled. "The schedule is a thing.  Many times it is actually not in my hands.  " What he meant was that the demonic entertainment system gave him various tasks every time, and he had no way to control his own time. " Allen didn't know much about it, so he didn't ask much, but just took advantage of the situation.  : "That's it, what kind of music do you like? If you were to make a film, how would you choose it?"  " "Nothing special.  Li Zhengxi laughed, "I even like opera and Chinese opera very much. As long as it sounds good, I will be fascinated and want to try it!"  " "Wow!  Like everyone in the audience, Allen also marveled, "You are indeed a strange genius when it comes to opera and drama, just like what you are doing now."  To be honest, you don¡¯t really write operas and plays or anything like that.  " "That's not bad," Li Zhengxi shrugged. There are also particularly famous and outstanding stage plays, operas and the like in the system. He can do it if he wants to. "I think every art has its own unique charm, and I can  Different people like it!  ¡± There was applause from the audience. After the applause, the recording continued. It took nearly three hours before the program ended. However, this was just one of Li Zhengxi¡¯s schedule today, and the next schedule was even more fully booked. It was almost evening.  It's twelve o'clock, and he hasn't rested yet. He is still rushing to another place, an exclusive interview with Vanity Fair magazine, which was conducted in a villa in Beverly Hills. The interview was not only with him, but also with Jessica Alba.  , this time is about the promotion of "Spider-Man", and this kind of magazine interview is not only about simple questions, but also includes the shooting of magazine pictures. Even the questions are already known, very simple, and the time is short.  , on the contrary, the filming will take a long time. After getting off the car, Li Zhengxi was still eating dumplings and spicy cold beef bought from the Royal Food Garden. On the other side, Li Mingze was holding coffee for him. On the other side, Jessica Alba.  I just arrived, and when I saw his huffing and puffing, I chuckled. I was used to the way he always ate and drank. Or, he only looked like a young man when he was hungry. Otherwise, he looked like a young man.  Like a little old man, it was almost twelve o'clock. When I saw him eating, I felt a little hungry and even more greedy, so I ran up and pinched a dumpling and put it in my mouth, and asked: "What's the filling?"  Ah, are there any shrimps I like?  " "Yours is down there.  "Li Zhengxi smiled and pulled apart some of the top ones, pointing to the bottom, "The top ones are cabbage, pork, and leeks and eggs." Americans rarely eat leeks, so they basically don't grow them, only in the Imperial Food Garden.  Only local places have Chinese-style dumplings stuffed with chives. They are delicious and very fragrant. Of course, you have to use chewing gum to get rid of the taste in your mouth after eating. Jessica Alba nodded happily, but she understood the shrimp.  Put it down, it was obviously something he had specially prepared for her. What makes women like this guy is that he is very considerate, but men are usually very careless and rarely care about women's feelings. He said thank you and then turned over.  It tasted so delicious. She had become obsessed with Chinese food recently. It seemed that he had introduced her to it. As she walked in with him, she said, "You know, these shrimps are eaten with fermented glutinous rice paste. Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk,  It's really going crazy, it's sweet, a little sour, and the aroma of shrimp plus egg is so delicious that I never get tired of it. I almost ate it as a snack that day and never stopped talking  " Li Zhengxi laughed dumbly, "What's this? Let me tell you, I heard my dad say that in China, there are hundreds of ways to make any dish, including various kinds of frying, steaming, stewing, and then adding various kinds of ingredients.  What kind of ingredients, tsk tsk, I will try it all when I have time!  " "Then you must call me!  "Jessica Alba grabbed his hand with excitement?, "I really yearn for it when I think about it!" He curled his lips again, "The Western methods are too crude, they are always the same!" "That's not true," Li Zhengxi smiled, "Americans and most  The way of eating in European countries is very simple, but the authentic French food is also unique, with various exquisite methods." After a pause, he continued: "Of course, even if it is a very simple method, many of the most sophisticated methods are  Food made from local ingredients is absolutely delicious, but many of us don¡¯t know it!¡± ¡°You are indeed a foodie!¡± Jessica Alba teased him with a giggle.  In a word, eating is obviously a beautiful thing, and most people can't stand the temptation.  While chatting and eating, we went inside, where Morris, the famous editor of Vanity Fair magazine, was waiting.  Saw the two of them eating.  Also happy.  "Oh, you all ate it. It seems I can save a fortune." "I just filled my stomach," Li Zhengxi also said with a smile: "I heard that the late-night snacks in Vanity Fair are very rich.  I hope you won¡¯t be disappointed if you wait!¡± After saying that, he took the latte handed over by Jessica Alba and took a sip. It was actually his, but it was Jessica Alba who ate the dumplings.  My mouth was dry, so I just took it and drank it.  She didn¡¯t realize anything, and Li Zhengxi didn¡¯t think anything either. Morris¡¯s eyes lit up and he smiled inwardly, but he didn¡¯t say anything.  The photos taken are not only in the villa, but also outside on the lawn, in the garden, and by the swimming pool, in the middle of winter.  Although you are not required to enter the water, you are required to wear a swimsuit.  Then put on a towel and pretend to be on the beach chair.  When the wind blows, it is also very cold, which is one of the pains that an artist has to bear.  The first photo was taken inside the house. Lee Jung Hee wanted to change into a black suit, and Jessica Alba wanted to change into a red evening dress. These clothes were sponsored by the brand, but the brand sponsorship was for the magazine, not the artist.  Time is limited. For everyone¡¯s benefit, I will ask questions while changing clothes. Anyway, it is separated by a hanging curtain, so I am not afraid of not being able to hear.  "What do you think about the fact that some people still say that you, an Asian, should not be cast as the male protagonist of "Spider-Man"?" This is a question that has been entangled again and again. It is destined to be unstoppable from the beginning. The only  What is reassuring is that it is always a minority, and more people have accepted him.  Therefore, Li Zhengxi just smiled indifferently, "It's very simple. If someone thinks you are not good, you can prove it to him with your performance. I think this is the best way. Of course, when I encounter that kind of stubbornness, I  I will use my pride to ignore him!" This made Morris laugh and said, "Can this be published?" When Li Zhengxi said yes, he continued: "You are not afraid of people saying you are arrogant!" "They will always do it anyway!  Find a topic to talk about, why should I care about these people?" Li Zhengxi smiled and shrugged, watching Jessica Alba pull open the curtain separating the two from the other side, and asked him to help lift the curtain behind her.  The zipper is closed.  Walking forward, looking at her smooth fragrant back, as well as the curved buttocks and groove behind the small waist that snaked down, my heart skipped a beat, just when Jessica Alba turned her head and saw his appearance  , and hit him angrily.  She showed him everything last time, so what does this mean now, not to mention she shamelessly said she wanted to chase him.  That was also the fundamental reason why she unconsciously shared a cup of coffee with him. She felt a little in love now.  Li Zhengxi did not dare to do anything at this time, so he quickly pulled her up, and then walked out of the simple dressing room with her, continuing to be interviewed, and at the same time, he also started taking pictures.  "Well, Jessica, please sit down on the chair, and then, Vincent, you reach out your arms from behind the chair and put your head against her templesVincent, you lean on the pillar.  Go up and play with your left leg, Jessica, put your hands on his shoulders and stare at his face" According to the instructions of Andre, the gold medal photographer of "Vanity Fair" and a famous photographer in Hollywood,  Lee Chung Hee and Jessica Alba struck various poses while also changing into various outfits.  Of course, there are still questions that cannot be stopped, "Jessica, in your eyes, what kind of person is Vincent and what is his personality like?" "I think everyone has the impression that he is very talented!"  Jessica Alba followed Andre's instructions, put her arms around Li Zhengxi's neck, leaned back slightly, half leaned on his shoulders, and casually replied: "I'm about the same. As for my personality, I'm not too  I understand, but usually, he is a very gentle, polite, and attentive guy. " "Do you like such a boy? If not, what do you like.What kind of boy?  " Morris asked with a smile. "Actually, he himself knew that this was nonsense, because he could see that Jessica Alba obviously had a crush on Lee Jung-hee. Of course, work is work, and Jessica Alba also giggled as expected.  Smiling, "Of course I like him, but I know you are talking about love, so I think although he is very good, he may not be my type!"  " "As for what I like," Jessica Alba shrugged, "It has to be a family man, the kind who should love women very much, because I hope that the other person can give me the feeling of family, and I like family  " "Wow, you are quite traditional," Morris smiled, and then asked Li Zhengxi, "What about you, great genius, what do you think of Jessica, or will you become the kind of man she hopes?  " Lee Chung Hee chuckled, "What do you want me to tell you? I hope to be her man," then shrugged amid everyone's laughter and continued: "From the appearance, Jessica Alba is super charming.  She is a beautiful woman, but the most precious thing about her is her persistence, kindness, and the tradition you just mentioned. I like girls who are more traditional  " "Then you two are a perfect match," Morris smiled: "Wouldn't it be perfect if we started a family?  " Jessica Alba thought it would be good to be like that, but it's a pity that this guy has a girlfriend. Lee Jung Hee was happy and said: "Love is such a wonderful thing. No one knows what will happen, so you said it.  , it¡¯s just one of the possibilities!  " "That's also possible?  Morris smiled, and Li Zhengxi shrugged and joked: "If this includes you maybe also liking Andre, of course it is!"  " These words made everyone laugh. Andre almost dropped the camera, and then laughed at the side, "Please, this camera is very expensive. I have been using it for many years"  " Morris waved his hands helplessly, "Okay, although I really want to say that you two will definitely be together in the future, but since you are not cooperating now, let me say something else."  Afterwards, looking at Lee Chung Hee, "There are a lot of disagreements about "Spider-Man" outside now, and some of them feel that it will be a failure, because from the director to the actors to the production, it doesn't look good?  " Lee Chung Hee was happy, "I want to say that this is precisely their narrow-mindedness. What's wrong with director Sam Raimi? Is he a very bad director? As for me, although it is inappropriate to say this, I still want to say it here,  My performance and movements are absolutely worthy of praise from everyone, not to mention Jessica. And the entire production, not to mention the investment of 150 million US dollars.  What I want to tell the audience is that the plot is great. Even comic fans, you will find that it is very close to your lives and has the trajectory of your life. It is not completely consistent with the comics. As a movie, it has its own characteristics.  The special feature is enough to attract and surprise everyone  " "So, you are very optimistic about the prospects of "Spider-Man"?  Morris smiled and said: "So, between the two movies "The Da Vinci Code" and "Spider-Man", which one do you like more?  " Everyone laughed at this question, and Li Zhengxi laughed even more. "Thank you, Morris. I hope the promotion department of "Spider-Man" will not give you any trouble." After making a joke, he continued seriously:  "Honestly, I can't give you an accurate answer, because I hope both movies are good. Although "The Da Vinci Code" was produced by my company and has more interests with me, at the same time, as a  As a professional actor, I also hope that my work will be recognized by everyone  "(To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!
