Chinese Entertainment 2017: Starting from the Top Writers

Chapter 371: Light in Action, Envy and Jealousy

"What did you say? I can't hear you!"

The speeding car and the whistling wind made it impossible for Zhang Ruonan to hear what Lin Li was saying, so she shouted at him.

Lin Li smiled and shook his head at her.

"Wow~"

Zhang Ruonan didn't ask any more questions when she saw this. She spread her arms and shouted loudly, releasing her excitement to her heart's content.

The Cullinan, which was on the elevated road, galloped forward like a wild horse, weaving seamlessly in the traffic. The speed ignited the manic factor in Zhang Ruonan's blood, and she shouted wildly without any care to vent her feelings.

But the whistling cold wind made it difficult for her to breathe, let alone scream.

After struggling till she was exhausted, Zhang Ruonan finally compromised, sat down, buried her head in Lin Li's arms, took a deep breath, and watched the scenery rapidly receding outside the car window.

"Am I being a little too presumptuous?"

After a while, Zhang Ruonan recovered and raised her little face from Lin Li's arms and asked shyly.

"It doesn't matter. I like you when you are lively and bright."

Lin Li raised his hand and scratched the tip of her upturned nose, speaking in a gentle tone.

"Yeah, love you!"

Zhang Ruonan was so moved that she didn't care about Gao Wen and the other person in front of her. She hooked her arms around Lin Li's neck and kissed the corner of his lips.

"No~"

Zhang Ruonan wanted to just move away, but Lin Li grabbed the back of her head with one hand and locked her waist with the other, deepening the kiss.

Lin Li's breath instantly filled her nostrils. His tongue forcefully pried open her teeth and teased her tongue. Zhang Ruonan's mind went blank and she could only let him do what he wanted.

"Hmm~"

After a long time, Lin Li ended the long kiss, held Zhang Ruonan, who had become as wet as a pool of spring water, in his arms, and admired her rosy cheeks.

"Sister Wen and Brother Bao are still here."

After taking a moment to calm down, Zhang Ruonan reacted immediately, buried her head in Lin Li's chest, and groaned.

"Ms. Zhang, we won't look around randomly."

Gao Wen's serious voice came from the front row, and Zhang Ruonan immediately buried her face deeper.

"Ah……"

Lin Li stroked Zhang Ruonan's soft hair and chuckled, touched by her adorable reaction.

"Hmm? This doesn't seem to be the direction to go home, does it?"

After a long while, Zhang Ruonan looked up at the surrounding environment and asked with some uncertainty.

"That's right. Someone is inviting us to dinner tonight. I'll take you over to have some free food."

Lin Li stroked her delicate chin and spoke leisurely.

"Who?"

Zhang Ruonan tilted her head and looked at him curiously.

"An acquaintance, you'll know in a moment."

Lin Li smiled mysteriously at her and pinched her soft little face.

"Ok."

Zhang Ruonan responded obediently, then found a comfortable position and snuggled into Lin Li's arms again.

It doesn’t matter where he goes in her heart, what matters most is having him by her side.

-

On the other side, in a private kitchen box in Beijing.

"The three of you should be careful. When Mr. Lin comes, you should be respectful. Don't forget your status just because he is so easy-going."

"You have to understand that a dozing tiger is still a tiger. Even if General Manager Lin says he doesn't plan to use you, don't show any dissatisfaction to me."

"Do you understand everything?"

In a private room of about 80 square meters, Wang Changtian was sitting in front of a mahogany round table and lecturing three young men and women.

Wang Changtian was afraid that these three new actors would be deceived by Lin Li’s superficial image and do something inappropriate.

After the last Huaxia meeting, he already knew clearly that Lin Li was not as kind as he usually appeared. On the contrary, he had a big appetite!

The three people in front of him are Ding Yuxi, Ren Min and Sun Qian, artists under Guangxian.

"clear."

The three of them sat at the table obediently and nodded.

At that time, the three of them were still unknown in the entertainment industry. Ding Yuxi only starred in a low-budget web drama and did not make any splash.

Because Ren Min was not able to play a tragic role like he did in the original time and space, he is now just a new actor without any representative works.

Although Sun Qian starred in the youth film "My Youth Is All About You" and the TV series "Take My Brother Away", she failed to gain popularity and is still a rookie in the entertainment industry.

Wang Changtian specially arranged this dinner today, just to see if he could use his good cooperative relationship with Lin Li to get a few people into the crew of Star Han Canlan.

Although their Guangguang was also one of the investors, Wang Changtian knew in his heart that he was able to participate in the investment in Xinghan only because of Lin Li's old friendship and Zhang Ruonan. Otherwise, there would be companies in the circle that could replace their Guangguang.

After all, no film and television company would be willing to miss out on a steady investment like Xing Han Canlan, and he knows what he is doing.

"Mr. Wang, Teacher Nanxun seems to be easy to talk to. As the investor of Xinghan, can't Guangguang directly decide the roles?"

Sun Qian looked at Wang Changtian and asked casually.

Today, Sun Qian wore a light blue knitted tank top with loose high-waisted denim pants, a very college girl outfit.

"Yes, Mr. Wang, I heard from my friends at Beijing Film Academy that Teacher Nanxun is very easy-going."

Ren Min also echoed from the side.

She wore a bow-patterned cardigan and a plaid halter dress, looking gentle and cute, full of girlishness.

"Don't you understand what I just said?"

"Remember that you are in the entertainment industry. You must wear a mask when you are under the spotlight. Don't ask such childish questions. Do you understand?"

"Remember, he is not only the writer Nan Xun and the director Lin Li, but also the owner of the most popular film and television production company and a businessman who controls resources."

"For businessmen, profit comes first, and business is business."

Wang Changtian could only give a brief introduction to the three rookies in front of him. After all, at their level, it was difficult for them to understand Lin Li’s true strength and the complex network of relationships behind him.

"Yes."

The three of them looked at each other and responded in unison. "In short, maintain sufficient respect."

Wang Changtian emphasized again.

"Ok."

Sun Qian and the others responded obediently.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk"

About ten minutes later, there was a knock on the door of the private room. Sun Qian and the other two people in the room suddenly tensed up and looked towards the door.

The three of them looked nervous and excited, after all, that was Teacher Nan Xun!

"Why don't you get up to greet them!"

Wang Changtian glared at them, then stood up and walked towards the door first. Seeing this, Ren Min and others hurriedly stood up and followed.

"Please come in."

As Wang Changtian spoke, the two doors of the private room were pushed open by two waiters outside, and two figures, one tall and one short, came into the sight of several people.

When I looked at the boy, he had an upright posture, a handsome face, and a faint smile on his lips.

He wore an off-white windbreaker, a round-neck white sweater and black trousers, which made his tall figure look particularly straight.

The girl's style is simple, a blue commuter shirt paired with black overalls. She has a sweet smile on her pretty face and looks very friendly at first glance.

The people who came were Lin Li and Zhang Ruonan who had rushed over from the airport.

When Sun Qian and Ren Min saw Lin Li, their eyes immediately lit up.

Although Lin Li's face is young, his relaxed posture and the blessing of many halos make the two people clearly feel his unique charm.

When they saw Zhang Ruonan beside him, the expressions of Sun Qian and the others changed slightly. They nodded at her politely, and Zhang Ruonan also smiled and nodded in response.

They all knew that Zhang Ruonan had finished filming the intimate scene in the morning. After all, this topic is still on the hot search list.

But he didn't expect to meet Zhang Ruonan here, let alone that she would appear with Lin Li.

Sun Qian and the other two recalled a rumor in the company that Zhang Ruonan had been with Lin Li for a long time, which was why she got the roles of the tragic second female lead and the intimate female lead.

Now it seems that the rumors are most likely correct!

"Boss Lin, I haven't seen you for a while. You look even more handsome and cool!"

"Haha~ Every time I see Mr. Lin, I feel like I really can't refuse to accept my age."

Wang Changtian extended his hand to Lin Li enthusiastically, and Lin Li also reached out and took it with a smile.

"Mr. Wang is joking. Mr. Wang is in his prime now. Under Mr. Wang's leadership, Guangguang will surely prosper and flourish."

The palms separated as soon as they touched, and Lin Li greeted Wang Changtian familiarly.

"I have to thank Mr. Lin for letting me board the Nanxun Culture ship, otherwise I don't know what the situation of our Guangguang is now."

Wang Changtian said with a smile.

"Mr. Wang praised it."

"This is true!"

"Ruonan is back, thank you for your hard work."

After some flattery, Wang Changtian looked at Zhang Ruonan and spoke in a kind manner.

"Hello, Mr. Wang. It's not hard."

Zhang Ruonan bowed slightly and responded with a smile.

"Well, Ruonan is getting more beautiful and her temperament is getting better and better!"

Wang Changtian looked at Zhang Ruonan and praised her with a smile.

"Thank you, Mr. Wang."

Zhang Ruonan clasped her hands in front of her and smiled reservedly.

"Ah."

"By the way, Mr. Lin, these are some new actors from our Guangguang. They are all your fans. They were very excited to hear that I was coming to meet you today. They specifically asked me to bring them here to meet you, their idol. I brought them here to fulfill their wish."

"Come on, why don't you come over and say hello to your idol."

Wang Changtian first nodded to Zhang Ruonan with a satisfied look on his face, then waved and called Ding Yuxi and the other two who were lined up obediently on the side to come forward.

"Hello, Mr. Nanxun, I am the new actor Ding Yuxi."

"Hello, Mr. Nanxun, I am the new actor Ren Min."

"Hello, Mr. Nanxun, I am the new actor Sun Qian."

Ding Yuxi and the other two stepped forward one by one and bowed to Lin Li to greet him. They remembered Wang Changtian's words and were extremely respectful.

In between greetings, Ren Min and Sun Qian both secretly looked at Lin Li with sparkling eyes, their eyes full of curiosity and excitement.

Zhang Ruonan, who was standing beside Lin Li, had a flash of light in his eyes when he saw this, and the curve of his lips relaxed a little.

Of course she knew Ren Min and the other one, but she had not been in the company for long and was not particularly familiar with them.

Looking at the situation today, she roughly guessed what Wang Changtian was thinking, and also understood the purpose of Lin Li bringing her here.

Thinking of this, she straightened her back silently.

"Hello."

Lin Li raised the corners of his lips and gave them a kind smile.

"Okay, okay, we've been blocking the door for a while. We've been neglecting it. Let's go into the private room and take a seat."

"Please come in, Mr. Lin."

Wang Changtian extended his hand to invite Lin Li to enter the private room. Lin Li smiled and nodded, then took the lead to walk to the round table and sit down. Zhang Ruonan naturally sat to his right.

Wang Changtian smiled even more when he saw this, and walked forward and sat on Lin Li's left. Ding Yuxi and others also sat down one after another.

Looking at the intimate posture of Zhang Ruonan and Lin Li, Sun Qian and Ren Min both raised their eyebrows at the same time, and they seemed to be further confirmed in their relationship. In an instant, a feeling of jealousy rose from the bottom of their hearts.

Although there have been rumors about Zhang Ruonan and Lin Li's relationship in the company for a long time, one can't help but feel envious and jealous when seeing it with one's own eyes.

Think about it again, Zhang Ruonan has been the tragic second female lead since her debut, and now she is starring in an intimate role. It can be said that she is about to rise to fame.

We are all women, with similar ages and time in joining the company. Why are you so lucky?
Moreover, Zhang Ruonan just returned to the capital today, and she came here with Lin Li. It can be imagined how much Lin Li values ​​her.

It’s so enviable!
Amid the two people's complicated emotions, the waiter began to serve the dishes and the dinner officially began.
