The only sun in Huayu

Chapter 11 Reaching the Pinnacle Together (Third Update)
Shen Shandeng's heart skipped a beat.

Could it be that his plan to establish a harem has been completely and utterly exposed?
"Was it Shishi, or Yuanyuan, that they said something to you?"

Shen Shandeng inquired.

"Huh?" Da Mimi no longer needed to act; she was genuinely angry: "Shen Shandeng, how many things have you been hiding from me? When Sister Xiaowan asked me about such a big film project, I knew absolutely nothing. Do you know how embarrassing that was? You didn't even know what your boyfriend was doing; you've been hiding everything from me?!"

"You keep your career a secret from me, and you're also having affairs with several people at the same time. All you do is get things done. Do you ever care about me? And all you do is enjoy yourself."

Upon seeing this, Shen Shandeng breathed a sigh of relief.

"Baby, don't cry, it breaks my heart. What's there to cry about?"

He cupped her face in his hands. Da Mimi tried to dodge, but there was a huge difference in strength. She resisted for a moment, but couldn't move.

He let Shen Shandeng wipe away her tears and then took her bag off.

Da Mimi didn't really intend to run away, otherwise she wouldn't have waited for Shen Shandeng to come back before running away, but she still sat on the sofa with a huff.

An important role is essential!
No, it's that an explanation is absolutely necessary!
Otherwise, she wouldn't feel safe!
What she wanted was an attitude!

It's been almost half a month, and I haven't given her a single hint.

Yang Mi only learned about the existence of this project by chance when Shen Shandeng and Zhou Qifeng went to China Film Group to discuss business.

Then, after inquiring about the progress once, Shen Shandeng remained silent, but his sorrowful expression said it all.

Seeing this, Da Mimi didn't dare to ask any more questions, and she had to use a lot of her persuasive skills to make Shen Shandeng happy.

So it turns out she was just playing herself.

This morning, Da Mimi suddenly received a call from Li Xiaowan, one of the company's bosses, and only then did she get the news from her.

Of course, things weren't as she claimed, with Li Xiaowan claiming she knew nothing about them.

She is smart.

When Li Xiaowan asked about the "Brotherhood of Blades" project, Da Mimi immediately realized that things were not so simple.

Da Mimi doesn't know the specific progress, but she does know some of the basics.

Taking advantage of the information gap, Shen Shandeng learned from Li Xiaowan that he had completely impressed Han Sanping with the script and concept design for this project.

When Da Mimi was on the phone with Li Xiaowan, she was completely dazed and in a daze.

No way, no way.
"Brotherhood of Blades" is a project worth 100 million!

They had almost reached the formal project approval stage, but Shen Shandeng stubbornly kept quiet about it.

Sure, keeping it a secret means not letting her, my sweetheart, know.

Just as Da Mimi was about to hang up the phone, Xiao Wan, who usually acts like an elder, cautiously probed from the side.

This indicates that Rongxinda can also help with the casting for this project, relieving President Han's burden.

Listen to this, this is the art of speaking.

All they want is a role.

Even now, Li Xiaowan's voice still echoes in my ears.

Honey had a really tangy and refreshing experience.

On one hand, she was annoyed that Shen Shandeng had kept it from her, and she hadn't even seen a glimpse of the character; on the other hand, she was also very pleased.

She indirectly entered the film industry, and she's in a fairly high position.

Despite Rongxinda's seemingly glamorous exterior and the fact that one of its owners, Li Shaohong, has extensive connections among directors of the fifth generation, high-quality film resources remain extremely scarce.

So, as much as she enjoyed it, when faced with Li Xiaowan's request, Da Mimi just smiled and laughed it off.

After receiving Li Xiaowan's call in the morning, she was filled with turbulent emotions, but she remained outwardly calm.

First, I went to Zhou Qifeng to find out what he was thinking.

Zhou Qifeng wasn't good at keeping secrets, and his words contradicted each other. One moment he said he was working on a research project with his teacher, and the next he panicked and said he was out running errands.

Da Mimi was afraid of alerting them, so she didn't expose them. After inquiring through other connections, she found out that Shen Shandeng and Zhou Qifeng had been going to the Beijing Film Studio non-stop during this period, practically living there.

This is the end.

Da Mimi basically pieced together all the fragmented information.

They didn't rush to launch the attack; they waited for Shen Shandeng to return so they could have a face-to-face confrontation.

Da Mimi has no interest in fighting for Rongxinda's interests.

She vaguely sensed that the company had reached its ceiling; even the production of "Dream of the Red Chamber," which the company boss was involved in directing, couldn't secure her a lead role.

Yang Mi is not only interested in getting roles, she's extremely keen on it. Why let the good stuff go to outsiders?

If you don't fertilize her, the cow won't be happy either!

Movie resources are incredibly valuable these days.

Zhou Xun, the company's former top star, switched to Huayi Brothers for film resources. It was also because of Zhou Xun's departure that Yang Mi received full support and development.

Now, her own man has actually gained Han Sanping's appreciation and may be in charge of a big-budget production.

As an actress, Yang Mi has an outstanding imagination.

It's as if I can see my future self as Shen Shandeng's muse, stepping onto the big screen and becoming a movie star.

Da Mimi put on a stern face and told Shen Shandeng to handle it.

Shen Shandeng was also serious and didn't forget to correct Da Mimi's mistake: "You also enjoyed the experience of doing important things, don't deny it. I have records here."

Da Mimi couldn't keep up the act any longer and immediately started acting wildly.

How could anyone withstand a sneak attack on a young girl in her early twenties from the lower body?

"Look, he's getting anxious again."

Shen Shandeng suppressed Da Mimi, telling her not to move, and admonished her, "This fully demonstrates that secrecy is necessary, and the old saying 'things are accomplished through secrecy' is true."

"I'm a honey too!"

Da Mimi straightened her clothes, sat in a corner of the sofa as far away from Shen Shandeng as possible, and put on her best acting skills: "You, you should give me an explanation."

Shen Shandeng wasn't buying it: "Honey, you're dragging me down!"

“I work hard to build my career outside. As a girl, you should support me wholeheartedly. When I'm down, cheer me on; when I'm moving forward, take care of my worries; when I succeed, you should be even happier than me.”

"Yes, I didn't tell you the details of the 'Brotherhood of Blades' project, but can't you look for the reasons within yourself?"

After hearing this, Da Mimi's mouth gaped open wide enough to fit an apple.

It looked so funny that Shen Shandeng almost couldn't hold back his laughter.

Da Mimi, with a woman's intuition, said: "You yourself admitted that you shouldn't have kept it from me."

"You're a girl, can you please stop bringing up the past?"

Shen Shandeng walked over, took her hand, and looked at her: "Mimi, you need to think more about it."

Da Mimi was a little overwhelmed. She thought for a moment, then her mind went blank: "What should I think about?"

Shen Shandeng sighed: "Have you forgotten? Four years ago, in the summer of 03, I released a huge hit song with double-digit numbers, which was earth-shattering."

"But before I even started my journey as a singer, I was already labeled an online singer and a non-mainstream artist, and my fans were looked down upon."

"Tell me, why is this?"

The two had discussed this topic before, and Yang Mi seemed thoughtful: "You said that this kind of continuous concept shaping is not a simple generational aesthetic gap, but must be guided by stakeholders."

"Although the internet has begun to impact the record industry, record companies are still at their peak."

"The industry's discourse power, commentary channels, award public relations, and singer packaging are firmly in the hands of record companies."

"Popular singers who attract young people are the home turf of Hong Kong and Taiwan singers."

"Some of the things you've encountered are preemptive measures to prevent you from impacting the interests of others."

"Sometimes, it's because the record company wants to sign you and tries to lower the price in advance."

At this point, Da Mimi suddenly realized what was going on and became a little embarrassed.

Shen Shandeng has many hit songs and has made a lot of money from ringtones, but he is just a newcomer in the film industry.

Even Rong Xinda, who has extensive connections and networks, can only sit at the children's table in the film industry, let alone Shen Shandeng.

Shen Shandeng has already come a long way, and there is no room for error; otherwise, who knows what unexpected things might happen.

Da Mimi isn't an unreasonable person. Once she realized she was wrong, she apologized: "I was being a bit unreasonable. I didn't see how hard you've worked."

Shen Shandeng held her hand, smiled, and forgave her: "Mimi, I don't blame you. If I'm going to be a director, I'll be a great director. If you're going to be a star, you'll be the most popular star. We'll support each other, help each other succeed, and reach the top together."

Da Mimi was overwhelmed with emotion, and a blush rose to her face.

That's his manly mouth!
This is their ultimate pact!
In a flash.

Da Mimi was speechless. Why was he getting handsy?
"Woo~"

This peak performance is not right!
