Chapter 375 Mars hits the Earth

When Chen Nuo stepped into the bedroom, Fan Binbing was feeding her child.

James Pritzker's country house in York, outside Toronto, is hidden in a lush maple forest.

The surrounding hills are undulating, Lake Ontario is dim in the distance, and the surroundings are quiet.

It was afternoon at that time, and the bright and dazzling sunlight poured in through the floor-to-ceiling windows. A few rays of light were like strands of golden gauze, slanting down on the head of the bed.

The woman was wearing a loose beige cotton nightgown, with her long, thick black hair cascading to one side. A few strands of hair stuck to her porcelain-white cheeks, making her phoenix eyes look even more charming. Even though there was a hint of fatigue in the corners of her eyes, the gentleness that radiated from the inside out made her incredibly beautiful.

The skirt of her nightgown was lifted aside.

It was round and white like mutton-fat jade, with most of it exposed.

She had just given birth, so her breasts were fuller and plumper than before, and you could faintly see the blue veins on the hemispheres.

The little guy, who was born just a few days ago, closed his eyes and lay peacefully in her arms, sucking hard with his mouth, making a slight smacking sound. His little face was wrinkled and still red, with soft hair on his forehead. He occasionally twitched his little hands, looking very cute.

The sound of Chen Nuo opening the door startled the woman.

She raised her eyes and glanced, with a hint of shyness and some indescribable emotions in her eyes. She said nothing, then lowered her head and looked at the little thing in her arms.

Fortunately, before the top medical team withdrew, the doctors and nurses had a special conversation with him.

Otherwise, Chen Nuo probably wouldn't have been sure how to deal with Fan Binbing until now. But now, he knows.

"How is she? Does she have a good appetite today?" Chen Nuo closed the door quietly, not letting a single breath of wind in. He walked to the bed and sat down, staring at the snow-white ball and the little baby with snow-white edges with his sharp eyes.

Fan Bingbing subconsciously turned her body to the side and whispered, "It's OK."

Chen Nuo moved closer and pretended to be surprised: "What's okay? I saw she was eating so happily. It made me hungry..."

Fan Binbing raised the corner of his mouth, revealing a hint of a smile, glanced at him, and said, "Bad guy."

Chen Nuo laughed and said, "Why is he a bad guy?"

"What do you think..." Fan Binbing paused and asked, "Why did Qi Da ask you to go out? Is there something wrong?"

"No, I just talked to them about the future schedule. She seemed full. Are you tired? Do you want me to hold you for a while so you can rest?"

Indeed, the little one had had enough milk, and his little mouth began to spit bubbles. He opened his big eyes and looked around curiously, looking very cute.

Fan Bingbing straightened the collar of her nightgown to cover her exposed chest, and wiped the little thing's mouth with a tissue. She said, "No, she will cry again if you hug her. I'll coax her to sleep first, and then you can carry her to bed."

After saying that, she gently shook her arms. After nearly five minutes, the little thing in her arms finally closed its eyes little by little, and its breathing gradually became even and calm.

Fan Binbing gestured, and Chen Nuo quickly and quietly took the child and carefully put it back into the baby box. Then he walked back and sat by the bed.

Fan Binbing asked softly: "When are you going to leave?"

"next Tuesday."

Fan Binbing said seriously: "If you have something to do, just go and do it. She and I are on good terms, so nothing will happen. Besides, my previous nanny is here too, and Xiaomei will also take care of me, so don't worry."

"I'm not worried. But my next job really starts on the 29th, so the 27th is just right for me to leave."

Chen Nuo said seriously, "I will be busy until the 10th. Then, I plan to come back on the 11th and stay here with you for two more days to see the baby. I will return to China on the 13th. I will come back after I finish my work in China. By that time, you should be able to get out of bed. We will see what to do next, whether you will return to China or something else."

Fan Binbing nodded and said okay, then was silent for a while and said, "I'm sorry."

Chen Nuo smiled and touched the woman's soft long hair, "It's okay."

“I didn’t know what was going on with me at that time.”

"If you don't know, forget it. Don't think about it." Chen Nuo comforted.

In fact, he now knows what happened to Fan Binbing at that time.

It wasn't just what the doctor told him. Fan Binbing herself had a progesterone-sensitive constitution and was easily affected by hormone fluctuations in her body, causing her mood to fluctuate drastically.

It is also because, as an actress, Fan Binbing has relied on her face to make a living since her debut.

From Jinsuo in "My Fair Princess" to Li Ningyu in "The Sound of the Wind", she has gradually become a legend under the spotlight. She is used to being praised and used to standing at the top and looking down on others.

Over the past decade, every inch of her skin and every strand of her hair has been magnified and examined by the camera.
By 2010, she had almost redefined the word "beauty" in the minds of many Chinese people and reshaped the aesthetic concepts of countless men and women.

At least without her appearance, there wouldn't be all those artificial chins that are sharper than the other in the future.

In this situation, how can ordinary people imagine the anxiety about her appearance caused by pregnancy and childbirth?

Why did she treat him like a robber when she faced him before, fearing that he would take the child away?
Because under such pressure, she was willing to give birth to the child!

Just tell me how much she cares about this child.

So Chen Nuo understood very well why she had begged him hysterically not to take the baby away. It was definitely an emotional breakdown caused by the dual effects of hormones and anxiety.

Now according to the doctor, with the completion of delivery, the progesterone level in the body will decrease. As long as the corresponding psychological counseling is done, Fan Binbing will basically be able to return to her original state after the confinement period.

Chen Nuo was originally skeptical.

But now he suddenly realized that it seemed to be true.

When Fan Binbing heard him say that, she heaved a sigh of relief, and her soft body leaned over and fell on his shoulder, muttering, "Now that I think about it, I really felt like a different person at that time, as if something was controlling me inside my body. It was so scary."

Chen Nuo didn't know what to say, so he just put his arm around her shoulders and stroked her loose hair.

Then, I don’t know how it happened, but I slipped in along the loose front of my pajamas without noticing.

He really didn't mean it, he was just curious.

The result of curiosity is that I found that in this situation, the feel is indeed different from normal circumstances.

Just by roughly grasping it with his palm, Chen Nuo knew that it was much rounder and bigger than before.

It is soft and full, like freshly fermented dough, falling heavily in the palm of your hand with a slight warmth.

At times like this, he just pressed lightly with his fingertips and could feel the fullness inside, like a full water bag that was about to overflow at any time.

Fan Bingbing let out a soft cry of "Ah" and her body trembled.

Chen Nuo took his hand out, looked at it, and smelled it.

Fan Binbing slapped his hand away and said with a red face, "What are you doing?"

Then, the woman looked back at the crib, turned her head back, bit her lip, and whispered, "Not now, it will take more than a month... Can't you bear it anymore?"

Chen Nuo coughed lightly, "It's okay."

Not too bad.

Generally speaking, men who say this kind of thing are the ones who want to have a little bit of dignity, but they are not that many.

Fan Binbing bit her lip and looked at him, then said, "How about I... help you. But, it's not convenient for me to move now, how about... you come up?"

this………………

Chen Nuo thought about the scene and had to say it was a bit exciting.

but.

Well, no buts. Just be careful not to choke too much.

The key is that he is not the only one who thinks so!

He could tell that Fan Binbing had obviously been holding it in for a long time.

Besides, what is the most fearful thing about depression?
Chen Nuo had read a related paper in his previous life, which was the happy hormone.

If you are happy and in a good mood, you won’t be depressed.

In a short period of time, Chen Nuo came up with many excuses, and his guilt gradually disappeared.
He made up his mind right away and decided to serve the tiger.

And Chen Nuo was right. Fan Binbing really was like a tigress who had not eaten meat for a long time.

Although she couldn't really swallow it to relieve the itch in her heart, the activeness and initiative shown by the woman in the whole process was unprecedented. She even developed some new routines, which made it difficult for people to hold back for long.

Finally, Chen Nuo wiped Fan Binbing's face with a tissue. Looking at the woman swallowing her saliva, with a look of unsatisfied desire, he felt touched from the bottom of his heart.

If we talk more and less, the world will be much better.

Look, there are no Japanese yet, and the original depressed and gloomy feeling is almost gone.

What is postpartum depression?

I guess it’s all because of holding it in!
After he entered sage mode, Fan Binbing was still mumbling, twisting and turning, looking very uncomfortable.

But Chen Nuo no longer wanted to think about these things at this time. He wanted to do something serious.

If there was anything, he wanted to make it clear to the other party, in case she kept thinking about it after he left, which might cause trouble.

"Well, by the way, let me tell you something. I promised you. The child can have your last name."

"Really?" Fan Binbing stopped humming and shouted in surprise. She sat up straight, looking at him with sparkling eyes, holding him tightly with both hands, "You didn't lie to me?"

"Really. You can choose any name you want. But I have one condition."

"What conditions?"

"Now she can only settle in Canada. But when she turns 18 and returns to China to settle, if she wants to change her surname to Chen, you can't interfere."

Fan Binbing wrinkled her nose. "What do you mean? Do you think she will side with you when she grows up?"

Chen Nuo smiled and said, "I didn't say that. I just think that in this kind of matter, we need to respect the child's own wishes."

Fan Binbing snorted and said, "Okay, I agree. Let's wait and see. I don't believe that the child I raised by myself will side with you in the end!"

Oh, it feels like the original flavor of Fan Bingbing is coming out.

Chen Nuo felt a lot more relaxed all of a sudden.

To be honest, he was not used to seeing the weak, crying Fan Binbing, and he didn't like her.

"But there is a prerequisite for doing this, that is, I must tell her that I am her father from the first day she is old enough to understand. I cannot hide it from her."

Fan Binbing hesitated, looked into Chen Nuo's eyes, and said hesitantly: "..."

……

……

The Big Bang Theory was filmed on Stage 25 at Warner Bros. Studios.

When Chen Nuo came here, he didn't feel it was strange.

Because some shots of "Inception" were shot in Studio 16 of this huge photography base, this time it was just moved from Studio 16 to Studio 25.

Like many American TV series, the production process of "The Big Bang Theory" is to shoot a number of episodes first, and then the screenwriter will adjust the subsequent plot direction based on the ratings and audience feedback after they are broadcast.

The 13th episode in which he made a guest appearance is the first episode of the second half of the season, which will be filmed and broadcast simultaneously after the first half of the season is aired. It is expected to premiere in two weeks, on Thursday, December 12 at 12 p.m.

On the morning of November 11, when he walked into the dressing room led by the director and producer, all the actors had already arrived and started putting on makeup.

When they noticed their group entering the dressing room, everyone stood up.

"Let me introduce him. Actually, there's no need for an introduction. I know everyone knows him, the Joker, the vampire. He created many classic screen characters. Let us welcome our guest star of The Big Bang Theory Season 4 and Episode 13, No Chen." The on-site director Mark Sendrowski said with a smile on his face.

Wow!
Everyone in the room applauded.

"thanks, thanks."

Chen Nuo nodded in thanks.

When the applause died down, he smiled and said, "Thank you, everyone. I am very happy to be here because I am a loyal fan of The Big Bang Theory."

"Haha, don't disbelieve me, I'm telling the truth."

"Every time I feel like I'm lacking a sense of humor, I watch your show... Every time I finish it, I think, these people dare to do comedy. Then I feel better,"

"Hahahahaha!"

The crew members thought he would say some polite words, but he turned the tables and everyone laughed and applauded. Amid the laughter and applause, Jim Parsons, who played the protagonist Sheldon, took the initiative and walked up.

Although The Big Bang Theory has established itself as a top-three sitcom in the 8 o'clock slot on Thursdays, with around 1200 to 1400 million viewers per episode, it has become one of the top three sitcoms in the United States.

However, the leading actors in these dramas were still quite young and had not yet become world-famous. Including Jim Parsons, who won the Emmy Award for Best Actor several times in the future, he was only nominated for an Emmy Award last year.

So, at this time, in front of Chen Nuo, his expression was still a little reserved. He stretched out his hand and said cautiously: "Hi, Chen, nice to meet you. I'm Jim Parsons, who plays Sheldon in the show. I'm a big fan of yours."

Chen Nuo smiled and shook his hand. "I know you, Jim. Nice to meet you."

After Parsons gave up his seat with a little excitement, it was Johnny Galecki who played the second male lead, Sheldon's roommate, the nerd Leonard.

Next up is Kaley Cuoco, the big dumb blonde Penny.

Then there's Simon who plays Howard, and Kunal who plays the socially phobic Indian man Raj.

In fact, these were all actors that Chen Nuo was very familiar with in his previous life.

In his previous life, when he was driving or flying, his favorite TV show was exactly this life-style sitcom. He just said that he was a fan of this show, and he was right.

After the greetings, director Mark Senchowski said, "Chen, we will have a rehearsal in a while. This time we will have an audience. We will do some reaction tests on the spot and make the final adjustments to the jokes. We still have some time. Do you want to go in early and get familiar with the movements with Parsons, Kelly and the others?"

Chen Nuo nodded neatly and said, "Okay."

This was a bit beyond Mark Sendrowski's expectations.

He originally thought that this big star would take it seriously only after suffering a little during the formal rehearsal.

When Chen Nuo and several leading actors began to rehearse their lines on the stage, Mark Sendrowski stood in the audience and watched with his hands folded.

At this time, the show's main writer and executive producer Chuck Lorre walked up to him and said with a smile: "It seems that this big star is easier to deal with than we thought before, right?"

Sendrowski shrugged and said, "At the moment, it seems to be the case."

"Okay, Mark, be happy. Think about it, he will bring us a huge wave of ratings. Those Twilight girls are definitely a blank population that our show has never attracted. They are the key to increasing our ratings. We only need one-quarter, no, one-tenth of his nearly 3000 million Facebook fans to turn on the TV in two weeks and watch our episode. This will also allow us to surpass Grey's Anatomy or House, and give our motherfucker's ratings for the second half of the season a good start."

Sendrowski smiled and said disapprovingly: "Chuck, I think you are very optimistic."

"Hey, this is not optimism. This is the first time he has accepted a guest appearance in a TV series. I think this will greatly increase our ratings. Is there anything wrong with that? On the contrary, I am very curious, why do you look unhappy?"

Cendrowski said calmly, "Because I want to remind you that sitcoms are different from movies. Our entire scene is shot with three cameras, and all scenes will only be shot once. There will be no close-up reshoots, and the lines are the same... Parsons and his team started reading the script on Monday and have been practicing and rehearsing these days, and he just arrived today... He has never filmed any comedy before..."

"So, Chuck, I'm really worried about how he's doing."

……

……

On Thursday, December 12, the 6th episode of The Big Bang Theory just aired.

A 30-second trailer was immediately released on the CBS official website and CBS's YouTube account, with the title: "A big fight breaks out at a scientific conference, and Leonard has a new rival! He's coming next week - guess who he is?"

Many loyal viewers of "Big Bang" clicked on the trailer under this suspenseful title.

Just saw the opening.

Sheldon stood in the middle of a room that looked like a conference room, and said to his girlfriend with a serious face: "I don't believe that an actor can understand quantum mechanics."

The camera flashed, and Leonard pushed up his glasses, frowned, and muttered, "Wait, Penny, you said you were dating that guy?"

The scene cuts to Penny, a blonde beauty standing in front of a table in the cafeteria, dancing and screaming at the nerdy quartet, "Oh my god, you will never guess who I just ran into in the hotel lobby!"

Then, Raj covered his face with white mud and said in an Indian accent, "Why so serious? Does it look like me? Actually, I once won the third place in the JOKER imitation competition in India."

Finally, Howard jumped out. He was wearing tight jeans and a tight shirt covered with sequins. He twisted his waist and hips, licked his lips, and said with a greasy face: "My baby, let's do something exciting tonight." After that, he opened his mouth, revealing two white fangs.

In the ensuing laughter.

The camera suddenly turned, and a black-haired man in a suit walked up to the podium.

The rest of his body was clear except for his face, which was covered with a lot of mosaics, making him look funny.

At this moment, the video screen went black.

A clear voice sounded in the darkness: "Hello, good evening everyone, I am Beep."

After the name was muted, the voice continued: "The title of my speech is..."

Accompanied by cheers and screams from the audience that almost broke through the screen.

The screen lights up again.

"The Big Bang Theory. Thursday, December 12th at 13pm! Yes, you know the guy, he's here!"

Right after this trailer came out,
On Twitter and FB, the official account of "The Big Bang Theory" posted three preview messages in a row from evening to morning.

The first one: "Guess who's coming to the science conference? You'll never guess! At 12 o'clock on Thursday, December 13, someone you'll never believe will appear!" Attached is a video link from the CBS official website.

The second tweet: "Sheldon is going to be furious because someone has stolen his limelight! Don't miss it on Thursday, 12/13 at 8 o'clock because someone is more popular than Sheldon!" <Video link>.

The third tweet directly @ed the official Twitter account of Twilight, writing: "The most handsome vampire ever, caught in a love triangle with Penny and Leonard! Here he comes, Thursday, December 12, at 13 o'clock!" <Video link>.

Less than an hour after the third tweet appeared, the hashtag #NuoChenBBT# rocketed to the top of Twitter's hot searches, and the volume of discussion was unstoppable, quickly breaking through the 1 mark.

"WTF!? Chen is going to guest star on BBT The Big Bang Theory?"

……

What kind of show is The Big Bang Theory?

It tells the hilarious life stories of a group of physicist nerds.

The story is about using the social difficulties and low emotional intelligence shown by highly intelligent scientists such as Leonard and Sheldon in real life to create humor.

It is filled with a large number of scientific terms, as well as references and jokes to classic science fiction movies, comics, and games. The memes are not easily understood by ordinary people, and are mostly related to scientific knowledge, geek culture, and pop culture.

Most of its audience are geeks, college students, and science enthusiasts, which is Chen Nuo's blind spot.

Conversely, Chen Nuo's fan base is actually the same.

When this news first came out, fans on both sides were stunned.

First, the fans of BBT collectively raised questions.

"Who? Chen? Who is this? Some Chinese scientist from Stanford or Harvard?"

"OMG, that Asian pretty boy who played in Twilight is going to make a cameo appearance in our BBT. Is the director team crazy?"

"I doubt whether he can understand the lines in it."

"I've only seen him in The Dark Knight. Does he know how to act in comedy?"

"I'm not going to watch this episode. I think it's going to be really awkward."

Similarly, Chen Nuo’s fans also felt very strange.

"The Big Bang Theory? That stupid show my stupid older brother watches?"

"I remember there wasn't a single handsome guy in this show."

"I wonder why Chen's agent chose him to guest star in such a drama? But, no matter what, I will watch it."

"I'm looking forward to what Chen will do in a TV series like this."

"I'm so surprised that Chen would actually act in something like BBT. Sisters, let me tell you, people who like BBT are all freaks, really!"

Afterwards, it was hard to tell whether Twilight fans saw the nerds' comments first, or the nerds saw Twilight girls' comments on them first.
In short, when these two groups of people who originally had nothing to do with each other in life suddenly met because of the same topic, it was like Mars hitting the Earth.

"That guy Chen who made the vampire movie, what does he know about science or comedy? I swear, this is going to be a disaster."

"Dumb, Chen doesn't need to understand your Ke Xue stuff, because he has more interesting things to do. And what else can you do besides studying? I mean, have you ever touched this?" [A half-body photo of a woman wearing a tight vest, revealing her cleavage]

"Can you please go to college before you post on the Internet? Silly girl, at least this will allow you to spell the words correctly."

"Oh my god, you people are so rude! Chen Nuo can do anything when he puts his mind to it. He is a very talented actor and he will play this role very well." [vomit emoji]

"Nochen is just a gigolo. He doesn't have the intelligence and brains to play a role on The Big Bang Theory."

"Oh, come on! You're just jealous that he's more handsome than all your favorite characters. And he's a better actor than any of them." [Still of Edward from Twilight]

"Better acting? In which universe?"

"In any universe, he's 10,000 times better than a socially awkward loser like your precious Sheldon. Who wants to watch a TV show with a character like that?"

"Sheldon is a genius! He's much smarter than your Chen. All Chen's fans are the same - shallow and obsessed with appearances. They can't appreciate the depth of The Big Bang Theory at all."

"That's what fans of The Big Bang Theory are like - bored and socially inept. No wonder you want to watch a show about people who can't find a partner."

"Chen Nuo might mispronounce his lines. Haha. I don't think he has the rhythm control required for comedy."

"You just can't help but be mad at him for stealing the spotlight from all you precious nerds."

"Steal the spotlight? From Sheldon? Come on, no one can steal the spotlight from Jim Parsons."

"Hahaha, who's Jim Parsons?"

For the entire day, Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube were all filled with fierce battles between BBT’s fans and Chen Nuo’s fans because they looked down on each other.

In less than a day, the discussion volume of the entire topic on Twitter soared to 30, and the trailer officially released by CBS on YouTube received over a million hits.

This made the production team of "Saturday Night Live" a little jealous.

On December 12, during the last meeting before the start of this episode of "Saturday Night Live", producer Marcy Klein was the first to speak: "Shit, I have to say, CBS's publicity is very smart. But this is not good news for us. This has stolen a lot of our limelight. We will be on the air tonight, but they have to wait until the 8th!"

A fat, white-haired old man sitting in the main seat of the conference room smiled and said, "Marcy, maybe this is actually a good thing. Since you said that the discussion on the Internet is so heated, then I think that maybe many of them will choose to come to our show to take a look and see what his comedy ability is like."

"I hope so, Lorne," Marcy Klein said with a wry smile, "But, I doubt they even knew he was going to be on our show."

The old man comforted her, "Don't worry, it doesn't matter if it goes wrong. I didn't expect this young man to bring me any surprises. After all, I know now that there is only one Lady Gaga, and Scarlett Johansson is not Lady Gaga. Obviously, this boy named Chen is not one either, so..."

Before he could finish his words, the old man couldn't help laughing.

And everyone present laughed along.

Among them was Don Roy King.

As the live director and the person in the program team who insisted on inviting Chen Nuo, Tang Roykin could understand the joke.

本年度《周六夜现场》最高收视率的三集分别是,9月25日亚历克·鲍德温作为主持人的1370万观众、4月10日贾斯汀·汀布莱克的1250万,以及10月30日特·雷诺兹的1230万。

Lady Gaga will be the musical guest in the last two shows.

So, on November 11, they invited Scarlett Johansson to be the opening host, thinking that this Hollywood actress has a similar image to Lady Gaga, and has been going through a divorce recently, which has been very popular, so maybe she can play the same role as Lady Gaga.

As a result, the ratings for the show were unexpectedly only 1150 million, which was not particularly bad, but still failed to reach their goal of 1200 million.

Therefore, during this period, there was an additional ironic joke among the production crew of "Saturday Night Live" that "there is only one Lady Gaga", which can also be regarded as a warning to the program team itself.

Comparing Chen Nuo with Lady Gaga and playing with gender references is obviously a trick used by the other party to liven up the atmosphere.

But the meaning behind the words is quite obvious -

The old man was not optimistic about how much viewership Chen Nuo, a young actor, could bring to their show, and the target set before the meeting was only 1150 million viewers, which was equivalent to Scarlett Johansson.

Don Roy King also understands this very well.

After all, no matter how energetic and quick-witted he is, he is still an old man born in 1941.

Although he has a great reputation in the American comedy industry and has set countless records, many times the show has to rely on his rich experience and ability to adjust and check some things.

But at the same time, as an old man who is about to turn 70, it is inevitable that my ability to accept new things will be much smaller.

Just as in a meeting more than a month ago, when he, Don Roy King, proposed to invite the Chinese actor Nuo Chen to be the opening host of this episode of "Saturday Night Live",
This fat, white-haired old man is recognized in the American entertainment industry as a producer who has made outstanding contributions in the field of comedy and talk shows. He has won 21 Primetime Emmy Awards and is also the individual with the most nominations in the history of the Emmy Awards.

Lorne Michaels, the founder and general director of "Saturday Night Live", didn't even know who No Chen was.

ps:
1200, 1300 monthly tickets will add 2000 words.
