Chapter 270 Making a Scene

Six hours?!
Dog system, do you think I'm an elephant, or an even more outrageous striped raccoon?

Liu Jing really wanted to leave immediately; his skin would rot in six hours.

"Wood, do you love me?" Sisi murmured, her expression gradually becoming lost. "I love you, so much. Without you, this world no longer feels real..."

Her voice gradually lowered, her eyelids drooped, and she became drowsy.

Liu Jingxin couldn't help but tremble, and at that moment she clearly realized her own shortcomings.

He embraced Sisi, kissed her forehead, and whispered in her ear, his voice firm, "I love you, goodnight."

Having met so many women, some were fleeting encounters, but many more had long-term commitments.

He said "I love you" for the first time, and it was also the first time he made a promise.

"Goodnight." Sisi fell asleep.

buzzing...

[Anfeng's affinity with the system has reached its maximum. Some system functions will be optimized, which will take one hour.]

"Tomorrow, everything will be different, my love."

Liu Jing picked her up and turned her over. He wasn't afraid of six hours, so what was an hour?

So easy!

Bow down and die.

"Wood, don't die..."

"Damn it..." Liu Jing was about to curse when he realized the man was talking in his sleep. "Holy crap, what did you do to me in your dream?"

Soon, Liu Jing was too exhausted to complain or even have time to feel anything. A sense of leveling up washed over him, and he fell asleep.

That night, he had many dreams.

He was Duan Yu, and Qianqian was Wang Yuyan. Duan Yu became the emperor, and Qianqian became the empress. The couple were loving and respectful to each other, living in perfect harmony. Later, the empress beat Duan Yu severely with a tray and banished all the concubines from the palace.

He is Li Xiaoyao, and Qianqian is Zhao Ling'er. It was very tragic at the beginning. It got even more tragic later, with Zhao Ling'er often beating Li Xiaoyao while holding her child.

He was Yang Guo, and Xiaolongnü was Xiaolongnü. The two were very sweet together in the Ancient Tomb. Suddenly one day, Xiaolongnü changed and started beating Yang Guo up every day.

He is Liu Jing, and Qianqian is Qianqian. Qianqian taught him swordsmanship, regardless of the freezing cold of winter or the sweltering heat of summer. If he made even one mistake, Qianqian would whip him.

Later in her dream, Yang Mi, Fan Xiaopang, Tang Yan, Zhang Min, and others appeared. Each time one appeared, Qianqian would lash out with a whip…

His biological clock woke him up in time, and he no longer had to be beaten.

He then realized that he had spent the entire night in one position.

Liu Jing was terrified. Next time he helps someone upgrade, he must find a safe place.

[Bond: Anfeng]

【Level: Level 2】

[Fame Value: 88]

【Favourability: 100】

[Entertainment Atmosphere: 18]

[Synergy Skill: A Meeting of Minds; Though we may not have the wings of a phoenix to fly together, our hearts are connected by a single thread.]

The panel has changed somewhat; the level has changed from level one to level two, the entertainment energy no longer has an upper limit, and the range of the bubble has been expanded to include the entire film crew.

The description of the bond skill has also changed. It used to be "When you are together, you can sense each other's thoughts. The more in sync you are, the clearer the sense of sensing will be." Now it has been changed to a line of poetry.

Liu Jing didn't notice where the reinforcement was located.

He stared at Sisi, who was smiling even in her sleep, completely unaware of his thoughts.

In addition to these, two other changes were made to the system.

One approach is to optimize the process by converting overseas box office revenue into RMB and then settling accounts in that currency.

If it's a co-production, the settlement reward will be discounted based on the percentage of shares held by China Film Investment.

Huaxia Investment is not limited to Spring Valley or Jiahe Investment; any investment by a domestic company is acceptable, including investments from Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan.

For example, there is a movie where the investment ratio is 40%, the global box office is 100 million US dollars, Liu Jing is the screenwriter, and the reward coefficient is 70%.

The exchange rate between the US dollar and the Chinese yuan is 7.3, so one hundred million US dollars is 7.3 million yuan.

730000 * 70% * 40%, Liu Jingke obtains 20.44 units of cultural and entertainment energy.

If the film does not have investment from China Capital, or the investment amount is less than 10%, it will be calculated as 10%.

A new feature has been added to the system: when the affinity level is at its maximum, the resulting bond will have a certain entertainment effect, generating an atmosphere of entertainment.

Please research the specific amount and form of cultural and recreational activities yourself.

Finally, the system promptly informed us of the conditions for the second upgrade of the bond, which required meeting four prerequisites.

First, the favorability rating exceeds 95 points.

Second, the fame value exceeds 80 points.

Third, the cultural and entertainment atmosphere is worth ten million.

Fourth, both parties are in a combined state.

"I'm so poor, really poor. Except for the third condition, I'm satisfied with everything now." Liu Jing sighed, now only possessing 8.6 units of entertainment energy.

He felt insecure if he had less than a million in his bank account.

Now, he suddenly realizes that with less than a million dollars in entertainment, he feels even more insecure.

To raise a million, he stripped away all his entertainment-related aura before the new year.

Now, all nine bonds, including his own, are cleaner than the last.

[The reward conditions for "The Gate" have been met, awarding 2100 points of Entertainment Spirit.]

Just as I was feeling sentimental, the system sent me a message.

With a production cost of eight million and a box office of three million, Liu Jing mourns Rong Xinda.

It would have been so much better to stick to making TV dramas; instead, they insisted on trying to squeeze into the film industry, and they ended up losing a lot of money.

Even a small mosquito bite is still meat, especially when you're broke.

"Damn system, are you trying to get me to start working?" Liu Jing muttered to himself. He sighed, "I never expected that my first big order this year would be from Yang Mi."

"Yang Mi?" Qianqian suddenly opened her eyes, without a trace of morning grumpiness.

"How are you feeling?" Liu Jing asked quickly.

"I sensed Yang Mi," Qianqian replied, then suddenly frowned, sensing something else amiss. "You've been like this all night?"

"Sigh! There's nothing I can do, it's a necessary step for upgrading. I worked for six hours to get you upgraded successfully." Liu Jing said bitterly, taking credit while changing the subject for Yang Mi.

Sisi was worried and moved it a couple of times. "It's been so long, won't it break?"

"Let me try, you do it like this..." Liu Jing instructed, and Qianqian tried it carefully.

Liu Jing felt nothing for six hours; he had simply taken a nap.

"Drive! Drive..."

Having tried it and found no problems, Sisi boldly took on the role of a knight.

After finishing his morning exercise and washing away the day's fatigue, Liu Jing felt as if his abilities had improved.

Sisi's face was glowing, and her eyes were full of charm; she felt better than ever before.

She felt refreshed and full of energy.

He has gained a lot of strength, is more agile, reacts more quickly, is more flexible, and even his mind works much faster.

My skin is whiter and more radiant, and all the scars I had before have disappeared.

Some minor health problems disappeared, and even some injuries sustained last night were gone.

In addition, my memory has greatly improved. I just tried it; I can memorize a poem after reading it carefully two or three times.

"I'm not playing anymore, it's pointless, I still can't beat you." Sisi was very frustrated.

After the two went out for breakfast, Sisi couldn't resist the urge to practice with Liu Jing.

Liu Jing was naturally satisfied, having decisively defeated Xixi and dealt a blow to her arrogance.

Before Sisi could even feel smug, Liu Jing poured cold water on her.

"You almost defeated me on another battlefield." Liu Jing looked gloomy; the upgraded Xixi was much stronger.

If this continues, and everyone levels up, he won't be able to withstand many of them.

"You know what, I had a lot of dreams last night. In my dreams you were bullying me, and then I thought, it's just a dream, how could I let you bully me? So I just beat you up as much as I could, finding all sorts of reasons to beat you up..." Sisi chuckled, drool practically dripping from her mouth.

"What dream?" Liu Jing was even more frustrated; he had a dream too. He had no control over his dream, in which he was constantly getting beaten up.

“There were several. In the first dream, I was Wang Yuyan and you were Duan Yu. We got married, you returned to Dali to inherit the throne, and I was made queen. Later, you took Zhong Ling, Mu Wanqing, A Zhu, A Zi, Meng Gu, Kang Min, Li Qiushui, and Tianshan Tonglao into your harem.” Qianqian became more and more indignant as she spoke.

Liu Jing groaned, his face looking very unpleasant; his dream was the same.

"Oh, right. In my dream, Zhong Ling was Jing Tian, ​​Mu Wanqing was Tang Yan, A Zhu was Zeng Li, A Zi was Yang Mi, Kang Min was Zhang Min, Meng Gu was Gao Yuanyuan, Li Qiushui was Fan Bingbing, and Tianshan Tonglao was Shu Chang. Of course, I didn't want you to bring them into the harem; it was my dream. I drove them all out and hung you at the palace gate and beat you up..."

As Sisi described it with great enthusiasm, Liu Jing remained silent. His dreams were just like that too; Sisi was being mild. It was far more than just a beating at the palace gates; the details were too painful to recount.

"In the second dream, I was Zhao Ling'er, and you were Li Xiaoyao. We lived on Immortal Spirit Island, but you also married Lin Yueru and Anu..."

Liu Jing sighed, confirming that we were both having a dream.

"Why are you sighing? I killed Guo Xiang, and you're still so unhappy?" Qianqian was displeased. "I've said so much, and you have to sigh when you mention Guo Xiang."

"Your dream was really violent," Liu Jing explained. "It's hard to explain. It must have been during an upgrade, which caused the dreams to connect."

Sisi was unaware of the communication, and Liu Jing was only guessing at the same time.

Sisi suddenly perked up, got up and packed her clothes, "Let's hurry home, my train leaves tonight, I need to get back to Beijing quickly."

"Now we're in a hurry."

"After returning to Beijing, I'll practice with Yang Mi first, and I'll let her use one hand."

"..." Liu Jing didn't comment, since he wasn't going to cause me any trouble anyway.

The two of them carried large and small bags and stuffed them into the car.

Liu Jing sat in the passenger seat with practiced ease, but Qianqian objected, opening the door and saying, "Big brother, how dare you let me drive?"

"What's there to be embarrassed about? You like driving, don't you?" Liu Jing said matter-of-factly, preferring to be a passenger rather than drive. He could sleep anytime while in a car, but that wasn't the option when driving.

"It hurts! I can't move at all, I can't press the accelerator, and I don't dare to press the brake." Sisi put her hands on her waist.

I had some ulterior motive yesterday, which is why I drove the whole way.

Now that the plan has been achieved, there's no need to compromise myself and continue working as a driver.

The passenger seat is so comfortable; they can read, listen to music, or sleep whenever they want.

Liu Jing was filled with emotion. With the upgraded telepathy activated, he successfully sensed Qianqian's thoughts, which was also the first time.

He couldn't even tell whether it was something he sensed or something he guessed and analyzed.

He was raised by Zhang Min, cheated on by Gao Yuanyuan, forced by Yang Mi, and reverse-pushed by Shu Chang. Now he feels that he was set up by Qianqian.

Liu Jing secretly made up his mind to treat Tang Yan better in the future; she was the first woman he had ever taken the initiative to seduce.

"Where does it hurt? You're not hurt at all, you can walk normally, and you can even fight."

"I don't care, it just hurts." Sisi was completely unreasonable.

Liu Jing was very reluctant to climb from the passenger seat to the driver's seat.

Sisi sat up straight and coughed twice.

Liu Jing handed him the water. "Does your throat still hurt?"

"Pervert! My seatbelt wasn't on." Xixi rolled her eyes. He had no chivalry whatsoever. This pervert had so many demands. Zhang Min must have taught him all of that. Old women always have so many tricks up their sleeves.

"You're a princess today." Liu Jing leaned over and helped her fasten her seatbelt. "What about tomorrow?" Qianqian was very satisfied; this was what love felt like.

"Tomorrow you'll be the queen," Liu Jing said with a smile.

Sisi was even more satisfied, and she hugged Liu Jing's head and gave him a sweet kiss.

After a long pause, she murmured, "Wood, let's stay one more night."

"Sister Li and the others are waiting for us at home. The train leaves around six o'clock tonight." Liu Jing glanced at the time, his brows furrowing, because it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.

The young couple were so engrossed in their sweet romance that they didn't notice the passage of time.

Sisi also noticed the time and immediately shifted the blame, saying, "It's all Mom's fault. She didn't even call to remind us."

“You said all that last night, Sister Li isn’t stupid, she understands what’s going on,” Liu Jing said with a wry smile.

"I..." Sisi recalled that she was dizzy at the time and didn't care about anything else.

She covered her face, "It's over, I've lost all face, how can I face them now?"

"Even an ugly daughter-in-law has to meet her in-laws eventually."

"Too."

"Let's go!"

"Pah! You're the ugly daughter-in-law..."

We sped along, and before we even got on the highway, Sisi had already fallen asleep.

After returning home, no one laughed at them, and no one even mentioned that the two of them had gone out.

When Sisi went back to her room to change her clothes, the atmosphere changed instantly.

The old man smiled and said, "Xiao Li, it seems I'll be able to hold my great-grandson before I die."

"Maybe there will be more than one, and you'll have plenty to hold in the future," Sister Li joked.

"I can hold the babies born to Xixi, but I can't hold the babies born to other girls," the old man shook his head.

"Xiaoli, isn't it a bit inappropriate for the child to take Liu Jing's surname?" The old lady said with a smile, getting straight to the point.

Sister Li's expression changed. "Mom, Liu Jing's surname is Liu. He's not marrying into the family, so the child will naturally take his surname, Liu."

"Liu Jing should be surnamed An, since he grew up in the An family. Besides, Qianqian's surname is An." The old lady cared a lot about this because her surname was An.

"The Liu in Liu Jing is not the same Liu as in my name, Liu Xiaoli. You all know his background; his surname is Liu, there's no reason for him to be surnamed An." Sister Li wouldn't budge an inch.

The "Liu" in Liu Jing is not the same as the "Liu" in Liu Xiaoli, but it is the same character, and over time it has become "Liu".

“He is the adopted son of the An family, and he is also recorded in the family genealogy. We can’t let the An family line die out just because he gets married. I insist on my opinion: Qianqian’s child should follow the mother’s surname and should take the An surname.” The old lady’s attitude was firm.

Liu Jing looked up at the ceiling and thought, "My God, things are still in the early stages, and they've already thought about having a child."

"Old An, what do you think?" Sister Li asked Teacher An.

Three pairs of eyes turned to look at him at once, and they were all people that Teacher An couldn't afford to offend. He felt his scalp tingle. "This... I think Liu Jing is the most qualified to speak on this issue."

Liu Jingye, you truly are a diplomat; you really know how to shift the blame.

"Ahem, isn't it a bit too early?"

"Don't you want to marry Xixi?" the old man asked with a somber expression.

"I think the first child should be surnamed An, the second child Liu. If we have many children, the third child should be surnamed Liu, and the fourth child Song," Liu Jing answered decisively.

He doesn't really care what the child's surname is, as long as it's his own.

Thousands of years ago, everyone might have shared the same surname.

"Alright, let's have four then." The old man laughed heartily, overjoyed.

"Good, good, have more sons." The old lady smiled broadly, this child was much better than her daughter-in-law.

"Hehe..." Liu Jing chuckled dryly, "You really think your granddaughter is a pig."

Sister Li was also laughing. "I can't control Xixi's children, but I can't make decisions about Liu Jing's other children either."

Teacher An smiled wryly, "What kind of family is this? It's really exhausting."

"What are you laughing at?" Sisi came out of the house.

"The weather is nice today, I'll go for a walk." The old man got up.

"I'll garnish the small fried fish I had at noon." The old lady went to get busy.

……
-
After returning to Beijing, Sisi had no time to look for Yang Mi.

She stayed in Kyoto for two days before flying to the United States; the exchange program was not yet over.

The United States doesn't celebrate the Lunar New Year, nor does it have a holiday. However, these exchange students do have a holiday; they start school on the tenth day of the first lunar month.

Sister Li continued working; a factory isn't built in a day. A lot of technical personnel came from Samsung to help establish the R&D team first.

Sister Li collaborated with several universities to conduct campus recruitment, recruiting a group of technical talents.

The offices are also ready. With the completion of Spring and Autumn Times Square, one floor will be directly occupied for office space.

Liu Jing accompanied the old man to visit his old comrades-in-arms and former leaders for three consecutive days.

He was a little puzzled, as there was no mention of his filming or Teacher An's work situation.

The old man was just chatting casually, mainly reminiscing about those years.

Who is still alive? How is their health? When did they pass away? Who is long gone? If only they were here...

Several elderly people would ask him, and they would only say, "Little guy, you've grown quite a bit taller. How old are you this year?"

Some elderly people joked, "Old Kong, when are you going to come to my doorstep to sing Lianhualuo? You must bring your grandson with you."

Liu Jing's script has been completed and submitted to higher authorities for review.

He only got busy after the Lantern Festival, with schools reopening, filming of "The Warlords" continuing, and preparations underway for "The Sacred Flame of Yin and Yang"...

That's right, he plans to start filming this movie ahead of schedule. He's already written his leave request before school even starts.

This time, the teachers didn't even have a chance to sign their names, but the department head, Tian Zhuangzhuang, signed his name.

Director Tian had only one request: to give the students in the directing department some opportunities so that they could broaden their horizons.

Liu Jing readily agreed and pulled his three roommates along as assistant directors. The three were overjoyed, as it was a rare opportunity to learn from Wang Jing.

Liu Jing's roommates immediately promised that for the next six months of their sophomore year, as long as Liu Jing was at school, they would take turns treating him to dinner every night.

With the start of filming for "The Warlords," Liu Jing no longer needs to spend time on set, and his scenes are numbered.

The production team will notify him in advance when he has scenes to film, and then he will go to the set to film.

With the Lantern Festival over and the festive atmosphere completely gone, Chunqiu Film and Television officially relocated.

Spring and Autumn Times Square has a total of 24 floors, with the bottom six floors being the commercial center, which will soon begin leasing.

The Chunqiu Cinema flagship store is located on the fifth and sixth floors and is currently under renovation. It is expected to open this summer, covering an area of ​​over 14,000 square meters. It will have 19 screening rooms, including 15 regular screening rooms, 3 VIP screening rooms, and a super hall that can hold 1,000 people, with a total seating capacity of nearly 4,000.

The cinema's projection equipment is all imported from Italy, featuring state-of-the-art film and digital projectors. The screen is an imported digital screen, and the super hall boasts a massive, seamless screen measuring 19 meters high and 25 meters wide, also equipped with a lifting stage.

Chunqiu Film and Television occupies the nineteenth floor, while the seventeenth and eighteenth floors are indoor studios.

Chunqiu Academy's offices occupy the entire eleventh floor, its mobile phone business occupies the entire twelfth floor, and Qinshi Capital's offices are on the twenty-second floor.

Sisi's Red Starwood Music also moved here. She likes the number 6, and the sixth floor is a commercial center, so she couldn't very well work there. As a second choice, she opted for the 16th floor, which occupies one-third of the space.

Liu Jing's new office is on the nineteenth floor. It is over 100 square meters, spacious, bright, and grand, with excellent natural lighting.

At this moment, Liu Jing was standing by the window, admiring the scenery outside.

"Boss, Chen Hao has terminated her contract with Orange Sky. Should we sign her?"

The assistant also has her own office, but she needs to report to Liu Jing every day.

If the boss is not available, report via text message or email.

If the boss is present, then you should report in person.

With Liu Jing's support, Zhang Min's approval, and her outstanding work ability, Bai Bing has already established herself firmly.

She has the right to sign newcomers and unknown artists, but she has no say in signing actors of second tier or higher.

Zhang Min had not yet fully handed over the work of the entire brokerage department to her.

"No need!" Liu Jing shook his head. If he wanted to sign a contract, it would only take one phone call.

Liu Jing shook his head not just because he didn't want to sign the contract, but because he couldn't help but shake his head when he thought of this heartthrob.

Chen Hao had a falling out with Orange Sky last year but kept it to himself. Only after Orange Sky signed Mei Ting, changing their top female player, did Chen Hao announce the news to the public.

Many film and television companies have extended offers to Chen Hao. However, either she felt their offers were too low, or they felt her offers were too high, and no agreement has been reached yet.

Chen Hao's friend also has the surname Liu, and his name is Liu Haifeng. He is an investor with a great eye for investment.

In 1993, he began his career in private equity investment, serving as Managing Director and Co-Head of Direct Investments for Asia at Morgan Stanley, where he managed Morgan Stanley's PE business in China. Under his leadership, Morgan Stanley invested in domestic companies such as Mengniu, Ping An, Nanfu Battery, Yong'an Electric, Belle International, and Shanshui Cement.

Last year, KKR tried to recruit him, but after careful consideration, he declined their offer.

The success of Qin Shi Capital spurred him and fueled his ambition.

He tried to collaborate with Qin Shi many times, but no suitable opportunity came along.

Chen Hao and he had been friends for many years and knew his thoughts, so he took the opportunity to ask Liu Jing to introduce Liu Haifeng to Sister Li.

The two are now in a romantic relationship, but no one in the industry knows this; in fact, very few people know.

Liu Jingneng knew that Liu Haifeng and Qin Shi had jointly established a private equity fund called Hongshi.

Liu Haifeng is enjoying success in both her career and family life, while Chen Haoming has found a new love and is now very much in love, having lost interest in the entertainment industry.

Her boyfriend's career is taking off, and the heartthrob is waiting for the right time to retire from the entertainment industry and focus on being a wife and mother.

Liu Jing was too lazy to tell his assistant these reasons, not wanting to waste his breath.

"Boss, this is the list of people going to Hollywood to study." Bai Bing pulled out a document and handed it to Liu Jing.

Chunqiu Film & Television intended to establish a special effects company. Through Li Mengdie's connections, Liu Jing arranged for a group of students to go to Hollywood to study. He also arranged for some students with basic skills to join the Iron Man crew and work with the special effects team.

"They go over there first. I have something to do for now. Someone will take over over there." Liu Jing glanced at it and saw no problem.

"Boss, could you arrange two people for 'The Yin-Yang Sacred Flame Token'? It's your first film, and you don't even have a single newcomer from our company," Bai Bing sighed.

"Sister Min is the female lead, so they shouldn't come looking for trouble."

Zhang Min also attaches great importance to the "Yin Yang Sacred Fire Token," but from a different perspective than others.

Liu Jing was motivated by the events of that year, Wang Pangzi by his lingering resentment, the audience by nostalgia, the actors by their paychecks, and Zhang Min by her desire to advertise.

If you said she was in her twenties, no one would be surprised.

Her appearance on television is a silent advertisement for the Rejuvenating Cream.

Before Bai Bing could say anything more, her boss's phone rang.

Liu Jing answered the call, addressed him as "Uncle An," and the assistant tactfully left.

"Liu Jing, your proposal has been rejected for approval."

"Uncle An, I'm prepared. What should we do next?"

"Commands come from the top down, but change comes from the bottom up."

"What do you mean?"

“A former boss of mine said, ‘Make a big deal out of this.’”

"Make a scene?"

"Hehe, only when it rises to a certain level will it have a legitimate reason to act."

"What's the commotion?"

"Isn't this your strong point?"
