Reborn Action Star: Starting in Hollywood
Chapter 658 That year, Taylor Swift did not look back
The entire concert venue was instantly boiling, and the fans were caught up in an unprecedented frenzy.
No one expected that Lin Yuan would give such a shocking response.
"Actually, I've always liked you."
Do you know what this sentence means?
Considering the context, what Lin Yuan wanted to express was that he had liked Taylor Swift for a long time.
He just hadn't responded to her feelings until tonight when he finally mustered up the courage to confess.
However, this also means that Lin Yuan admitted that his feelings for Taylor Swift have gone beyond the boundaries of friendship.
Although he did not betray her physically, his spiritual "infidelity" was undeniable.
Some fans who came from the media could no longer contain their excitement and almost rushed out of the venue to release the news first.
They were already imagining tomorrow's headlines: "Lin Yuan admits he had a secret crush on superstar Taylor Swift years ago!"
Once this news is released, it will surely cause a global sensation.
However, they still resisted the urge - after all, judging from Lin Yuan's previous performance at press conferences, things often took unexpected turns.
Wait, wait.
After all, they don't work for a tabloid. If they produce fake news, the consequences will be more than just embarrassment.
A wealthy man like Lin Yuan is not someone who can be easily slandered. His all-star legal team may come knocking on their door at any time and make them bankrupt.
The reporters were still able to maintain their composure, but the fans at the scene had completely lost control. They stood up and shouted excitedly:
"Lin Yuan, are you confessing your love to our Taylor Swift?"
"Yuan Shen, you're such a man! You'd rather damage your own reputation than embarrass Taylor Swift!"
"As a fan of this couple, I'm so happy I almost fainted tonight. It's so sweet!"
"Lin Yuan, are you ready to accept Taylor Swift's love and officially date her?"
"Source God, when did you fall in love with Taylor Swift?"
"Lin Yuan, how can you like our Taylor Swift when you already have a girlfriend?"
Those who shouted "Lin Yuan" were obviously Taylor Swift's fans.
Those who call him "Source God" are Lin Yuan's die-hard fans.
Of course, there are also double supports as CP fans.
The fans in the venue showed completely different attitudes and reactions, and their emotions intertwined to form a huge wave of sound.
Facing a barrage of questions from fans, Lin Yuan took a deep breath and said sincerely, "My love for Taylor Swift stems from an agreement."
"My love for Taylor Swift stems from an agreement."
Lin Yuan's answer immediately quieted the fans at the scene.
Agreement? Isn't that what we use to negotiate business?
If you want someone to like you, can you use something like an agreement?
The fans were full of curiosity and waited quietly for Lin Yuan to continue.
Lin Yuan took out a USB flash drive from his backpack, handed it to the staff, and whispered a few words into their ears.
Soon, a photo of the agreement appeared on the big screen behind the stage, with the title clearly read:
"Guarantee and Assistance Agreement for Forest Sources".
This slightly childish title made the fans present feel an inexplicable sense of shame.
What is even more striking is that this agreement is not a typed draft, but is entirely handwritten.
The handwriting is graceful yet childish, obviously written by a young girl.
Everyone immediately realized that the author of this agreement was Taylor Swift herself.
The handwritten words diluted the coldness of the agreement and brought a touch of warmth.
It seemed as if this was not a business contract that was penny-wise and pound-foolish, but a confession letter full of a girl's love.
The audience held their breath and stared at the big screen, trying to see the contents of the agreement clearly.
The entire agreement is very simple, only two thin pages of paper, and can be fully displayed on a big screen.
At first, the scene was silent, but soon, the audience's emotions erupted like a volcano:
"Is this even an agreement? This is simply a one-way 'slave clause'! Even married couples wouldn't be able to go to this extent!"
"F*CK! I'm still single, why are you letting me watch this kind of stuff!"
"Taylor Swift proposed this? Why can't I meet a woman who's willing to do this to me?"
All the audience saw the contents of the agreement clearly:
In order to ensure that Lin Yuan will not become disabled due to filming in the future and live a miserable life.
Taylor Swift voluntarily donated 20% of her lifetime income to the foundation to protect Lin Yuan's life.
The agreement is binding on Taylor Swift and is worth 20% of her lifetime income.
The terms of the agreement were simply unbelievable to all the audience present. They couldn't believe that Taylor Swift actually took the initiative to propose such an agreement that was simply a "slave clause".
Even if they are a couple, they can only share half of each other's property, not to mention that couples may get divorced.
Taylor Swift's 20% of income was unilaterally transferred to Lin Yuan without asking for anything in return and with no expiration date.
If this isn't a slave clause, what is?
The audience couldn't help but talk loudly:
"So beautiful! Is this the purest love a girl can express?"
"No wonder Lin Yuan was moved by this agreement. If there is a girl willing to treat me like this, my life will belong to her."
"I couldn't resist it at all. If I were Lin Yuan, I would have expressed my love right then and there. This has nothing to do with emotional loyalty or not."
"Any mistake any man can make!"
"No! I'm a woman, and I can't resist either."
With the audience's discussions filling his ears, Lin Yuan was also immersed in memories.
When Taylor Swift took out the agreement, he felt like his heart was hit hard.
He knew very well that he couldn't escape, and he didn't want to escape.
Although he had begun to show his talent at that time, he was still walking on thin ice.
As he lacks protection, he is likely to fall into the abyss completely because of an accident.
In his previous life, he had personally experienced the despair of being paralyzed in bed for many years and living a life worse than death.
He will never forget that feeling of suffocation.
Taylor Swift's agreement was like a ray of sunshine in winter, so warm that he couldn't resist it.
The audience's discussions continued to reach his ears:
"Did Lin Yuan accept this agreement?"
"It's hard to say. If any other man had the opportunity to lie on Taylor Swift's body and suck her blood for the rest of her life, he would never give it up. But someone as proud as Yuan Shen would probably refuse, right?"
"Of course he'd refuse. If he accepted this agreement, he'd have no choice but to be with Taylor. Otherwise, how would Taylor get married in the future? Which man would accept giving 20% of his wife's income to another man unconditionally?" "No, you don't understand. When Taylor presented this agreement, it meant she wouldn't accept another man in her heart. Even if Lin Yuan didn't choose her, she'd rather be alone."
"No wonder there's a song called 'I Have a Lover'. Isn't the mood expressed in the song completely consistent with this agreement?"
"I suddenly feel so sorry for Taylor Swift. She risked everything, but ended up with nothing. She truly ruined her life once she met Lin Yuan..."
The audience was very perceptive. In a very short time, they understood Taylor Swift's full intentions and understood the huge sacrifice she made.
This is a girl who is unreserved and unyielding in love.
How could Lin Yuan bear to let her lose?
He looked out at the audience, microphone in hand, and slowly said, "I'm incredibly grateful to Taylor Swift. From that moment on, she has irresistibly won my heart."
As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Taylor Swift beside him.
Taylor Swift said nothing, but just looked at Lin Yuan with a smile, her eyes shining.
The moment Lin Yuan walked onto the stage regardless of everything, she was so happy that she lost her mind.
Their eyes met, and in a moment, they understood each other's intentions.
——I will help you overcome the difficulties of public opinion even if it means damaging my own musical personality.
——I am the one who should protect you from the wind and rain, how can I watch you lose face in front of the world?
it is more than words.
However, the moment of expressing one's true feelings to each other must be postponed, as there is still a storm of public opinion that needs to be calmed down.
Lin Yuan turned to look at the audience and said in a calm tone, "I think everyone must be curious about how I handled this agreement, right?"
The fans in the audience immediately became excited and shouted:
"Of course I want to know! You wouldn't really accept it, would you? If so, I'd despise you! You're a beast!"
"But if you don't accept it, we will despise you too! You are worse than an animal!"
"Source God, stop keeping us in suspense and reveal the answer!"
As soon as the words fell, the audience exploded:
"You actually accepted Taylor Swift's efforts? But you didn't stay with her. That's so irresponsible!"
"Wow! Yuan Shen, how could you really sign? As a fan, I despise you too! Why don't you date Taylor Swift? Then we won't mind!"
"No way? This is completely different from the image of the Source God I had in mind!"
"However, I made some modifications before signing the agreement," Lin Yuan continued.
Lin Yuan waved his hand, and the staff manipulated the large screen to display a supplementary agreement:
Support Agreement for Taylor Swift's Musical Dream
The title still has a hint of middle school mentality and is also handwritten.
Fans familiar with Lin Yuan's handwriting recognized it at a glance:
"This is Lin Yuan's handwriting! He also wrote an agreement by hand!"
"No, this is not a new agreement, but a supplementary agreement based on Taylor Swift's agreement."
"What does the supplementary agreement say?"
Under the audience's eager gaze, the contents of the supplementary agreement were quickly displayed on the big screen.
The content of the agreement is very simple: Lin Yuan changed the 20% income that Taylor Swift originally donated unilaterally to 20% of the income each party would contribute, and jointly inject it into the foundation.
The purpose of the foundation is no longer limited to protecting Lin Yuan's life, but is also used to support Taylor Swift's music career.
Seeing this agreement, the audience at the scene instantly boiled over:
"Wow! As expected of a Source God, he can even do this? I thought no matter what choice he made, he would be worse than a beast!"
"Source God, I'm truly impressed. This method not only takes Taylor Swift's feelings into consideration, but also maintains fairness."
"Wait, is this foundation still around? A foundation that owns 20% of Lin Yuan and Taylor Swift's income—that's a huge sum! It's probably more than the entire fortune of many wealthy people, right?"
The fans' speculation was correct. Over the past few years, the foundation has continued to receive financial injections from Lin Yuan and Taylor Swift.
It is worth mentioning that the standard for injecting funds is "income" rather than "wealth".
Only the salary, dividends and album sales revenue that Taylor Swift received from Linyuan Pictures need to be calculated into the injection amount.
The same is true for Lin Yuan - his income mainly comes from salary, film remuneration and dividends.
However, an unexpected event occurred this year. With the equity reform of Linyuan Pictures, he obtained a large amount of equity cash-out income.
On the one hand, this made him leap from being “paper rich” to being a real cash rich man;
On the other hand, he also injected 20% of the cash-out income in full in accordance with the agreement.
This is not a small amount of money, but Lin Yuan doesn't feel sorry at all.
In his opinion, if money just lies in the account, it is just a string of cold numbers.
Only by actually spending the money and creating value can you be worthy of the income.
Lin Yuan has found an ideal use for the money, and although he hasn't yet communicated it with Taylor, he believes she would welcome it.
Lin Yuan then continued, "What I want to tell you is that the foundation Taylor Swift and I have established has now reached a size of $150 billion."
There was an uproar in the audience:
"Why so many? They are really good at making money!"
"Although Taylor Swift is also very profitable, it is probably mainly from Lin Yuan's investment."
"This is a pleasant surprise for Taylor Swift, right? She wanted to give with good intentions, but she received even more. Good things will surely be rewarded to kind people!"
"Why did Lin Yuan tell us the size of the foundation? This is their private matter. Is there any need to show it off?"
"Yeah, why do you want to show off your wealth? Aren't you afraid that people will get jealous?"
Facing the audience's doubts, Lin Yuan smiled slightly and continued, "Now, Taylor Swift and I no longer need the foundation's protection. No matter what happens, we have enough capital to deal with the risks.
So, I want to change the use of this money.
Of course, I haven’t discussed this with Taylor Swift yet…”
Having said that, he turned to look at Taylor Swift with a questioning look in his eyes.
However, before Lin Yuan could finish his words, Taylor immediately nodded and answered without hesitation:
"I listen to you, you have the final say!"
There was a burst of good-natured booing from the audience:
"Taylor, please listen to the purpose before you agree! This is over 10 billion US dollars!"
"Taylor, please be more careful! If Lin Yuan said he wanted to give this money to a woman, would you agree?"
The atmosphere at the scene was instantly ignited, and the air was filled with joy.
Obviously, it is impossible for Lin Yuan to change the purpose of the foundation in an unreliable direction.
But Taylor Swift's unreserved attitude of following her still makes people unable to help but make fun of her.
So hateful!
Are you showing off your love in public by treating money like dirt?
Is this the love of rich people? (End of this chapter)
