Fooling Huayu for Thirty Years

Chapter 318 Liu Tao? Bai Jie? The theatrical release system is here!
"Brother Ma, I think you're a good person."

"I'm not a good person."

"But in my opinion, you are much better than many bosses."

What do you watch?

"But that's what they think. You're better than those guys."

"I'm reminding you, don't think that just because you keep saying nice things about me, I'll treat you this or that."

"I never thought that way. Even if things continue like this, it would be fine."

"What do you mean? Have you been trying to infiltrate my inner circle all along?"

"I'm on your side."

"Haha... I was just kidding."

"Oh, you're so naughty."

"Look, you just said I was a good person."

"Ouch~~"

No good person can outsmart Ma Xun.

Jiang Zuping, this pretty girl, was caught in a dilemma by Ma Xun, but she wasn't angry at all; in fact, she was always smiling.

As long as I can be with Brother Ma, that's enough.

They've even changed how they address each other.

Ma Ge added the character "Da" in the middle... This "Da" is quite clever.

Jiang Zuping clearly experienced this firsthand... just kidding.

Jiang Zuping genuinely thinks Ma Xun is a very good person.

Unfortunately, Ma Xunlang was as firm as iron; he wouldn't be held back by a girl like Jiang Zuping.

Even if he could see that the girl had feelings for him.

However, Jiang Zuping's current situation is still too complicated.

This girl is the beauty they used in their honey trap, regardless of whether she truly acknowledges him as Brother Ma.

Ma Xun did not want to repeat the mistakes of Lü Bu.

Moreover, he wasn't in a hurry.

As the saying goes, time reveals true character... and in this context, it means exactly what it says.

Let's see how it goes in time.

Whether she is sincere or not, we will know in time.

……

Beijing, airport.

"Brother Ma, I don't think our acquisition of Golden Harvest this time was very successful."

"Where did it not work?"

"They brought back a lot of old movie copyrights, this..."

"This is the biggest success. Isn't this the business we were originally in?"

“You’re right, but I’m not entirely satisfied with not being able to take over Golden Harvest.”

"Haha... Is something wrong?"

"That's right, that's right... the victory isn't complete yet."

Bai Xiaohang's words are indeed quite interesting.

Ma Xun smiled and reassured him, "Let me tell you, we are the ultimate winners."

"Really? That's great!"

Bai Xiaohang's expression at this moment perfectly illustrated what it means to be impressed but not fully understood.

Anyway, he absolutely trusted Ma Xun.

Ma Xun didn't say much more. Of course, they had many things to do on their way back to Beijing, one of which was that Han Sanping called him before they returned.

Now that you're back in Beijing, come to the Beijing Film Studio and let's talk.

Then now...

"Mr. Ma! Mr. Bai!"

I was just about to go to the Beijing Film Studio when someone unexpectedly came to pick me up at the airport.

The person who picked them up at the airport this time was quite special. Before Ma Xun could say anything, Bai Xiaohang spoke up first.

"Well, I have something to do at home, so I'll head back now."

What's the deal with his bodyguard?
Why did you run away first?
There was nothing I could do; three people were there to pick me up at the airport, and they were all women.

Ye Quanzhen, He Xiuqiong, and Chai Zhiping.

Great job, Bai Xiaohang!
It wasn't what he thought, but Ma Xun couldn't explain it either.

The more you explain, the more complicated it becomes.

Moreover, the three of them also have important matters to attend to.

"Today is a good day."

"Our 'Princess Pearl 3' has started filming!"

"So, we'll... ha..."

I understand, no need to say more.

Ma Xun smiled and left with the three of them. His whereabouts were naturally revealed by Ye Quanzhen, but that was no big deal.

It was a small surprise, I suppose.

Not long after, Ma Xun arrived at the Chengde Mountain Resort with the three beautiful female producers.

The first two movies were filmed here, so there's no reason why the third one shouldn't be filmed here.

After Ma Xun arrived, he felt as if he had been in another world.

It seems that the cast of "My Fair Princess III" has been completely changed, except for Er Kang.

In particular, Ziwei was replaced by Ms. Ma.

Although she shared the same surname as him, Ma Xun knew how formidable this woman was, and he knew he should avoid getting involved with her.

Xiao Yanzi was replaced by Huang Yi, and to be honest, this casting was actually not bad.

This woman may not be very bright, but acting skills are sometimes truly innate; she has at least 7% of the look of the big-eyed thief Xiao Yanzi.

He's much better than that guy who came later.

Another one is the Fifth Prince... Gu Juji.

Honestly, he should have gone into singing, especially fast songs. Later, his covers of other singers were often played everywhere.

Even Ma Xun from the original timeline wasn't sure if it was him singing.

Besides, it's also a meme.

What is the antonym of "Ancient Giant Strike"?
A: Ruan Jingtian!
This joke is so dirty!

When Ma Xun saw the new Fifth Prince, he merely nodded in acknowledgment. The fact that he managed to hold back his laughter shows that Ma Xun has quite good self-control.

And then...

Qin Lan.

"Hello, Mr. Ma."

"Oh, Hello."

The two can't pretend they don't know each other at all now, since they did meet during the casting for "The Return of the Condor Heroes".

If it's too deliberate, then it's meaningless, but now... isn't it a little too natural?

Never mind, this is not bad.

then……

"Hello Mr. Ma, my name is Liu Tao. Qin Lan is my good friend. She plays Zhihua, and I play the Burmese princess, Musa." Liu Tao, isn't that Bai Jie?

Ahem... Just kidding.

Ma Xun simply nodded after hearing her self-introduction, but he couldn't help but take a few more glances at her.

Liu Tao will have many nicknames in the future, such as Bai Jie and Liu Xianqi.

And now, she seems to have the charm of a young married woman.

That's right, it felt similar later on; it wasn't particularly tender.

Perhaps, some people are just like that.

I've never been young.

Liu Tao may just be born with a natural wifely charm.

However, I also thought of some netizens' comments later, saying that Liu Tao was "rustic and pretentious".

To be honest, Ma Xun thought this assessment was quite appropriate.

For some reason, he was thinking a lot and took a few more glances, which caused a slight change in Liu Tao's expression.

She already had a smiling face, and she was smiling when she introduced herself. Now she's smiling even more charmingly.

That expression... Could she be interested in me?

Although Ma Xun was coveted by many women, Bai Jie and Liu Tao were being a bit too direct at this moment.

Am I overthinking it?
Just then, Ye Quanzhen said, "Mr. Ma, this way please, it's time to take pictures."

Ma Xun took center stage alongside Ye Quanzhen, He Xiuqiong, and Chai Zhiping.

Our opening ceremony photo is interesting; the main character isn't in the center. However, it's understandable because Ma Xun noticed that He Xiuqiong's husband, Mr. Chen, is also there.

Clearly, this is a declaration that "Princess Pearl 3" belongs to their side and has nothing to do with that young master Ping.

Qiong and her family are still fighting so fiercely.

After taking photos and worshipping the gods, Ma Xun seemed to be fine after going through a series of tedious opening ceremonies.

But naturally, some people came to him.

"Mr. Ma, you are indeed quite the ladies' man."

"Miss Chai, what do you mean by that?"

Ma Xun certainly couldn't accept Chai Zhiping's words.

This woman is very clever; she only scratches the surface of the topic.

"It was just a launch ceremony, and quite a few beautiful women were staring at you. Didn't you notice?"

"Have it?"

Ma Xun chose to play dumb; he remembered the look in Liu Tao's eyes earlier.

But at this point, you have to play dumb.

But Chai Zhiping immediately changed the subject, "It's nothing, who in the industry doesn't know Mr. Ma's name these days? You're a big boss, and a young master from Beijing."

Hey! It worked!

The new "business card" that Ma Xun created for himself—the young master of Beijing—is now proving to be very effective.

When we went to Hong Kong, those guys chickened out.

Now that she's back in Beijing, Chai Zhiping, a Taiwanese producer, is still saying this, which shows she's already achieved widespread fame.

Hmm, Liu Tao's look earlier was probably because of this... wait a minute.

Bai Jie married one of the Four Young Masters of Beijing.

Could it be that she has now changed her target to me?
Damn! She's another slut obsessed with marrying into a rich family!
Wait a minute, there's Huang Yi, Qing'er, and even that Ms. Ma...

Oh, so Chai Zhiping wasn't lying at all.

Upon closer reflection, it turns out that the actresses in "My Fair Princess III" all aimed to marry into wealthy families, and most of them succeeded.

Huang Yi just chose the wrong person. It's true that her husband is a rich second-generation, but unfortunately, he's even more brainless than her.

Have you ever seen a rich kid who got himself imprisoned?

Huang Yi's husband gave us a demonstration.

Calling him a complete idiot is absolutely right.

As for Qing'er... goodness, she's even more amazing. She didn't marry one of the Four Young Masters of the Capital, but rather the father of one of them!

It truly opened up a unique path.

The Four Young Masters of Beijing are men many women dream of marrying, but look at Qing'er.

She'll become the mother of one of the Four Young Masters of Beijing!
As for Qin Lan... I still don't want to think about her.

"It seems I shouldn't be here; I'm disrupting your filming."

Ma Xun was clearly echoing Chai Zhiping's words, but the woman giggled after hearing them.

"Actually, it's nothing. Marrying into a wealthy family is the ultimate dream for us women. Who wouldn't want to marry someone like Mr. Ma?"

Her eyes darted around as she spoke, clearly indicating that she wanted to marry one of them.

Ma Xun would definitely decline. This so-called beautiful producer was actually quite old, and she was also very promiscuous.

Although Ma Xun is exceptionally talented, he might not be able to handle this woman.

"Ms. Chai, let's get down to business."

Ma Xun steered the conversation back to the present, and Chai Zhiping, naturally understanding, complied.

"Actually, I would like to express my gratitude. I really have to thank Mr. Ma for what happened with 'Meteor Garden' before. If it weren't for you, the show would have been ruined."

Therefore, if possible, I would like to reciprocate by offering my assistance: if Mr. Ma has any TV dramas he'd like to air in Taiwan, I will definitely help him.

That's right, this is exactly what Ma Xun wants to hear.

“I do have quite a few projects in the pipeline, some of which haven’t even been released in Taiwan yet. Also, I have a new project.”

"What kind of play is it? Any of the old ones are fine too."

Chai Zhiping clearly saw a huge business opportunity.

Actually, for a TV series to be broadcast in Taiwan, there is usually a prerequisite: during the production process, there must be a lot of contact with the Taiwanese side, under the guise of co-production.

Cai Yinong has a great advantage in this regard.

Now, Ma Xun has multiple channels, which is better than having only one Cai Yinong.

"Love Across Time and Space".

As soon as Ma Xun mentioned the title of the play, Chai Zhiping got the hang of it.

"It's going to be a huge hit! That's great! I'll definitely help you then."

This woman's words were quite seductive, but luckily Ma Xun had enough self-control.

But if he can open up this channel through Chai Zhiping, then some of Ma Xun's previous projects will suddenly become collaborations... hehe.

It's at least tens of millions!

Now, the best course of action is to make "Love Through Time" a success.

"Great! It's a pleasure working with you."

After they finished speaking, the two shook hands.

Chai Zhiping's face finally turned somewhat serious.

……

The opening ceremony for "My Fair Princess 3" has concluded.

Ma Xun chatted with Ye Quanzhen, He Xiuqiong and others for a few more minutes.

Then I returned to Beijing and went to the Beijing Film Studio.

When Han Sanping met Ma Xun, after a brief exchange of pleasantries, he got straight to the point.

"Little Ma, I have great news for you! The nationwide reform of the cinema chain system has officially begun!"

This was definitely good news, and Ma Xun's face was full of smiles after hearing it.

Moreover, he understood that this reform needed a blockbuster film!
Heroes is coming soon!
