"Could it be that one?" The fat man rolled his eyes at the other party, and said, "Of course it's Smith Zhang, a Chinese-American director who has become famous in Hollywood!"

"Oh! ****! Are they entertaining us? A director, the owner of a film company, come up with a new book conference? Today is not a **** April Fool's Day!"

For a while, there were different opinions, and the venue was very lively! All the reporters were taken aback by the new book launch event that Auston and Zhang Dongcheng had brought up! They really can't figure it out, the director and the boss of the film company have a bad relationship with the book publishing, and they won't be able to join in the fun in the next life of the new book launch, right?

At ten o'clock, when Zhang Dongcheng and J.K. Rowling, led by Auston, walked into the venue, the entire venue was suddenly silent.

After the host, Alston, announced the official start of the press conference, the reporters who had already been unable to hold back for a long time finally showed their power.

"Director Smith, first of all, I would like to congratulate you on becoming a new big commercial director in Hollywood. I heard that you have established your own film company, right?" The first question was the Daily Mail, which was still fresh in Zhang Dongcheng's memory.

Back then, it was the newspaper's special reporter Harris who made things difficult for Zhang Dongcheng's two smoking guns, but it was also because of his taunt that the two smoking guns were suppressed to the lowest point. After that, it rebounded smoothly, and it was even higher than the box office of the original version.

"Sorry, today is Ms. J.K. Rowling's "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" book launch, please don't digress when you ask questions!" Zhang Dongcheng coughed lightly, and continued: "But I still want to answer this question." Answer you first, yes! Alright, next one!"

"Director Smith, hello. I'm a reporter from The Times. I want to ask you, are you going to be a bookmaker instead of a director?" A blond young woman in her thirties stood up and asked road.

"No! I'm still the director, and my new movie "The Matrix" will be finished soon and I will meet you all. I hope you can go to the cinema to support me!" Zhang Dongcheng frowned, and explained again: "Okay everyone, let me reiterate again, today is the new book launch of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone", please don't ask questions that have nothing to do with this launch!"

"Miss J.K. Rowling, I am a reporter from the London Daily, what kind of novel is your book "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone"?" Finally, the third reporter got up to ask the question and brought the topic to the point superior.

It was the first time to participate in such a press conference, and J.K. Rowling was obviously not used to it. Although she had a smile on her face, her muscles were a little stiff, and she even twitched slightly. "My new book is a children's book! No...I mean, it's a fantasy novel!"

J K Rowling, who was a little nervous, obviously slipped his mouth. Although she reacted quickly and immediately recalled Zhang Dongcheng's warning and changed her words in time, it is conceivable that these reporters will never remember what she said later. They firmly grasp the key point of children's books and will definitely There is a lot to write about this.

In fact, at the beginning, Harry Potter was even regarded as a fairy tale, until later Harry Potter got out of hand, especially when the protagonists in the book grew up, they could no longer be defined by children's books. It was finally classified as novels in the categories of fantasy, magic, adventure, and thriller. Out of the title of children's book.

J·K Rowling's words caused an uproar in the venue, what joke? Children's books? What's happening here? Is this director Smith having a cramp in his head?

The fourth reporter, who was about to stand up, just froze there with his back bent. The venue was silent.

After a long time, the reporter looked excited and asked impatiently, "Is Miss J.K. Rowling right? May I ask what is your relationship with Director Smith?"

What is the most popular in the entertainment industry? Gossip the most! The reporter obviously had a deep understanding of this, and asked the point in one sentence.

"Director Smith is my friend, he helped me in my most difficult time!" J.K. Rowling replied without hesitation.

"Director Smith, why did you go to such lengths to promote a children's book?"

"Because this book is great, from the first time I saw it, I knew that this book must not be missed. And I have decided to put this book on the big screen next year!" Zhang Dongchengyu broke the news again endlessly.

The next time the venue is getting more and more chaotic, everyone starts to ask questions one by one.

The director went to sell books for others. This is definitely a new thing. Not to mention these reporters, even Auston was stunned for a long time after hearing what Zhang Dongcheng meant.

The press conference lasted until half past eleven before it was declared over.

When the reporters left contentedly, JK Rowling almost collapsed. She said to Zhang Dongcheng with some palpitations: "Mr. Smith, was my performance just now very bad?"

"No! How could it be?" Zhang Dongcheng shook his head, and said seriously: "Miss Rowling, after all, it's your first time to participate in this kind of press conference. It's normal to be a little nervous. You know, I was the first When I participated in the press conference for the first time, I almost forgot how to say it in English!"

"Ha ha!" Hearing Zhang Dongcheng's joke, J.K. Rowling finally laughed. "Mr. Smith, you really know how to joke. If I remember correctly, your first film sound engineer made a big fuss at the Cannes Film Festival!"

Early the next morning, countless newspapers published press releases ending with question marks or exclamation points.

"A director who is not doing his job properly, Smith Zhang!"

"Yesterday, the reporter had the honor to attend a press conference held by Hammer Films. Smith Zhang, a Chinese-American director who went to the United States last year, appeared at the conference. But this conference turned out to be a new book release in the category of children's books. Yes, oh my God! At the film company, the director is launching a new book launch, and it's a children's book. Was it April Fool's day yesterday?

Although he didn’t know what was going on, Smith Zhang left the film he was making and returned to the UK to hold a press conference for a book of fairy tales, which obviously exceeded everyone’s expectations! "—Daily Mail

Maybe Zhang Dongcheng’s memory of the Daily Mail was too deep last time. This time the report didn’t even have a reporter’s comment. It just expressed his surprise bluntly. But other newspapers were less polite.

"Director? Fairytale? Jaw-dropping Smith!"

"After going to the United States to develop, the successful Smith Zhang returned to the UK again, but unfortunately he didn't come for a movie this time, but for a book of fairy tales!

yes! You read that right! A director with a bright future is actually connected with a fairy tale, this kind of irrelevant thing actually happened! Maybe the thinking of Chinese people is really different from that of normal people!

I think all of this is probably due to the continuous success, which has made Smith Zhang a little carried away, and he actually went to work hard for a fairy tale without doing business. The reporter is really unable to make a positive comment on this. Perhaps when this storybook is completely ignored, Smith will truly return to his right path! "—"News of the World"

"Damn fairy tales! We are grown-ups. As a director, Smith should make movies, not fairy tales! This is simply nonsense! I hope Smith can wake up, he is not God, he can't have everything! His strengths It's the movies, not the fairy tales that make you laugh when you think about it!" - The Times

Some unscrupulous media, after learning about J.K. Rowling's experience, even made such a headline. "Smith Chang and what single moms have to tell!"

In fact, the matter between Zhang Dongcheng and JK Rowling is indeed very easy to be misunderstood. After all, J.K. Rowling is now penniless, but Zhang Dongcheng has tried so hard to help her, even if people don't think in the wrong way.

However, such reports are still a minority. And most of them are some lace news, gossip newspapers. The base of readers is still not enough, so this kind of report did not cause much sensation.

JK Rowling, who saw the newspaper, came to the cousin's house next door with some apologies.

"Smith, I'm very sorry, if it wasn't for me, you wouldn't be so slandered!" J. K. Rowling apologized to Zhang Dongcheng with a slightly embarrassed face.

In J.K. Rowling's view, Zhang Dongcheng is being so criticized now, all because of her, if not to help her promote Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, then Zhang Dongcheng has nothing to do now.

Zhang Dongcheng flipped through these newspapers casually, and after looking at them, he smiled and said, "Miss Rowling, you are too polite. In fact, this result is exactly what I want!"

"What?" J. K. Rowling looked at Zhang Dongcheng in surprise, her eyes were full of disbelief. In her opinion, Zhang Dongcheng's actions can only be described as unbelievable. Is there someone who will deliberately let others demean themselves? "Smith, are you...are you kidding me? Or did I hear you wrong?

"You heard me right!" Zhang Dongcheng shook his head and said, "I'm not joking either. Now that Harry Potter has just been released, you are a new author. You want to make Harry Potter famous in a short time. , there is only one way."

"But..." J. K. Rowling understood Zhang Dongcheng's thoughts like lightning, but the expression on her face became more and more troubled, and said, "Are you making too much sacrifice like this?"

If Harry Potter really failed, Zhang Dongcheng's approach would become a big laughing stock. It's not appropriate for a director who has just risen to fame and made a name for himself to play with some children's books. Isn't this obviously a joke?
