Reborn Action Star: Starting in Hollywood

Chapter 301 The Ruthless Female Genius
Long Island is located southeast of New York City, where the Hudson River flows into the sea.

Los Angeles has Beverly Hills and New York has Long Island, both of which are gathering places for "old money".

It was ten o'clock in the morning. Lin Yuan came to a pier on the coast of Long Island with a note in his hand.

In front of him was a luxurious double-decker yacht, quietly anchored in the azure waters, its white hull gleaming, reflecting the sunlight and emitting a brilliant light.

After confirming that everything was correct, Lin Yuan walked from the sampan onto the yacht.

"Hello, Mr. Lin. The lady is waiting for you in the living room." A man in a black suit came forward.

"OK, all right."

Lin Yuan followed the man and went up to the second floor of the yacht. He pushed open a door and motioned Lin Yuan to go in.

When Lin Yuan entered the room, he immediately saw a young woman wearing a white shirt, gray trousers, and black leather shoes.

She is about 25 years old, 1 meters tall, and has a very heroic appearance.

The first time Lin Yuan saw her, he thought of the Taiwanese actress Brigitte Lin, or the Japanese actress Yuki Amami. That strong sense of feminine heroism brought a very high-level beauty.

"Mr. Lin, nice to meet you. I'm Betty Adams." She smiled and extended her hand to Lin Yuan.

"Miss Betty, I'm glad to meet you too." Lin Yuan stretched out his hand and shook hands with her.

Anyone who has been in North America for a long time will immediately understand what it means if they meet someone with the surname Adams in upper-class social occasions.

Betty Adams, born into the political Adams family, was one of the most outstanding rising stars of her generation. She completed her doctorate at Harvard Business School at the age of 21.

But she did not choose to go into politics, but joined Morgan Stanley.

According to Mr. Eisen, this beautiful lady, known as the "Sleepless Flower of Wall Street", is a complete workaholic.

Her genius brain and never-ending work ethic have enabled her to make rapid progress in her career.

In just four years, he successfully completed many major projects and was promoted to senior vice president in charge of direct investment business.

After both parties sat down, Lin Yuan got straight to the point and said, "Miss Betty, I came here today because I have a few things I want to discuss with you."

"I understand your intentions. Mr. Eisen has already explained everything to me. We can discuss this later." Miss Betty said, "I also have something I'd like to ask Mr. Lin Yuan for help with."

"Just tell me, as long as I can help." Lin Yuan replied.

"Mr. Eisen should have told you that it was me who took the initiative to meet you and expressed my love for you, right?" Miss Betty said with a smile.

Her smile on that heroic face was strong yet gentle, with a unique charm.

Thinking of Mr. Eisen's ambiguous hints, if the target was her, it didn't seem unacceptable, right?

How can it be!

Lin Yuan said, "I won't eat gigolos, let alone this kind of gigolo from unknown sources!"

It’s okay for female fans to express their love, but Lin Yuan cannot accept overly close contact before a sufficient relationship is established.

Lin Yuan replied politely but with a sense of distance, "Thank you for your affection. But after meeting me, do you realize I'm just like that? Two eyes, a nose, and a mouth. Nothing special."

"No, people like Mr. Lin Yuan radiate charm from the inside out. It would be cliché to only look at the appearance. Besides, your appearance is also very good and impeccable." Betty said.

No, something is very wrong!
Lin Yuan, who possessed the talent of "Life is a Play", was very keenly aware that although Betty was praising herself and seemed to be genuine in her love for him, her emotions did not fluctuate at all, and she was like a cold machine.

Why is that? Betty slowly leaned towards Lin Yuan and said calmly, "This is what I want to ask you for today. Please don't move. I apologize for any offense."

Betty put her face close to Lin Yuan, and the breath she breathed gently blew on Lin Yuan's face, bringing a hint of warmth.

There was a faint fragrance coming from her body, like the scent of flowers in spring, fresh and charming.

The two of them stared at each other closely for more than twenty seconds.

Betty suddenly distanced herself and said helplessly, "No, I'm so close, but I still don't feel anything. It seems like I'm really missing this emotional connection."

"I'm sorry for being rude just now. Thank you Mr. Lin Yuan for your help."

"Huh? What did I help with?" Lin Yuan suddenly realized that it was not what he imagined.

It seems that things like "romantic encounter", "sacrifice", "compromise", "having to do something out of necessity" will never happen.

Seeing Lin Yuan's confused face, Betty smiled and explained, "Please keep this a secret, Mr. Lin Yuan. After all, it involves my private life."

"Okay, go ahead."

"I'm 25 years old and have never been in a relationship. In North America, where people are open-minded, this is simply unbelievable.

Because I found that from childhood to adulthood, I have never been attracted to anyone.

At first I thought I just wasn't attracted to men, but I soon discovered I wasn't attracted to women either," Betty said.

She continued, "I began to wonder if I was lacking in this aspect of emotion. Some time ago, I watched Mr. Lin Yuan's "The King of Spy Wars". I was completely conquered by Mr. Lin in the movie and developed an extreme fondness for him.

So I took the initiative to find Mr. Eisen, hoping to meet you in person and see if I would feel that kind of heartbeat when I see you. "

"I'm sorry to disappoint you." Lin Yuan replied.

Obviously, what she liked was Lin Yuan's bravery and fearlessness at that moment in the movie, and she didn't really have any romantic feelings for Lin Yuan.

"Yeah, I'm a little disappointed. Even an outstanding man like Mr. Lin Yuan can't make my heart beat faster, so I guess there's no one else in this world who can do that." Betty replied.

A sentence suddenly flashed through Lin Yuan’s mind: Falling in love will only slow down the speed at which I become stronger!

Perhaps it is precisely because she has no interest in love that she has achieved the reputation of "the sleepless flower of Wall Street"?
"Now let's talk about you, Mr. Lin Yuan. Please go ahead," Betty said.

"To be honest, I'm a little embarrassed and don't know how to start." Lin Yuan replied.

Lin Yuan's goal was to ask Morgan Stanley, represented by Betty, not to interfere when he shorted MGM's stock price in the future.

This request is really hard to ask. It's like me talking to you and saying: I'm going to slap you, you have to stand still and let me slap you, and you're not allowed to get angry or resist.

How can we properly make such an impolite request?

If Betty disagrees, will it alert the enemy? If she informs MGM of Lin Yuan's plan in advance, the success rate of Lin Yuan's plan will inevitably be greatly reduced.

That's why Lin Yuan hesitated about how to start speaking.

Seeing Lin Yuan's embarrassment, Betty smiled and said, "Mr. Lin, don't feel burdened. Mr. Eisen arranged today's meeting because I promised him that I would never do anything that would harm your interests."

"I know that in business, promises made with just your mouth always seem weak, but you can get to know my reputation for credit."

"Plus, you helped me just now, so if we don't reach an agreement today, I will pretend I haven't met you and will definitely not use the information I get against you."
