Huayu: A Commercial Director

Chapter 201 First, let's go to the Rose Garden.

The next day, the plane returned to China.

He'll come to the US again next month, but there's still more than a month until the Oscars, so he can't stay in the US that long.

They returned with Yang Mi, carrying trophies as they came out of the airport. The two of them were already quite low-key, but they were surrounded by a lot of people, and the group of them still attracted attention as they walked out of the airport.

These days, airports have become like red carpets, with reporters snapping photos there every day.

Chen Shouzhe and Yang Mi emerged surrounded by their assistants and bodyguards.

Reputable media outlets naturally wouldn't go too far, and they don't have any so-called fanatical fans. Yang Mi has fans, but Chen Shou is a behind-the-scenes staff member, so he doesn't have any fans.

"I'm going back to the company, what about you?" Yang Mi asked.

"I have other things to do," Chen Shouzhe said. He hadn't been back for several days, and there was someone at home who was in postpartum confinement.

Although I left a comment on Weibo yesterday, I could tell I wasn't very happy. I guess I was still a little angry because I didn't include her.

Yang Mi seemed to remember something, glanced at Chen Shouzhe, but said nothing, and parted ways with Chen Shouzhe.

She attracted a lot of attention; among the "85 Flowers" (a term referring to actresses who are considered to be of high caliber), she is currently one of the strongest, and there are few who can rival her in terms of fame.

"Director Chen, can I ask you a few questions?" Even though they were separated, many media outlets still followed them.

"It's quite a distance from here to the entrance, you can ask," Chen Shouzhe said, remaining relatively relaxed with the media.

"As the second person from China to win a Golden Globe Award, will you focus on foreign language films in the future?"

"No, I already have work arranged after the New Year," Chen Shou said as he walked.

Will you continue making foreign language films?

"Yes, foreign films can be quite profitable, and they can even win awards."

"Director Chen, may I take a look at the trophy?"

"The trophy is in my suitcase, which is not very convenient."

"You said you'll continue to aim for awards; would you consider domestic awards?"

"Yes, I did participate in the Huabiao ceremony."

"I mean the three major gold awards in China."

"That's hard to say. I'll participate when I'm seventy or eighty years old and no one is older than me."

The reporters laughed when they heard this, their meaning clear: let's talk about it after those people are dead.

As he walked outside the airport, reporters asked him several questions, including why he chose to go to the Golden Globes with Yang Mi and what about the Oscars next month.
"She's an artist under my company, and she wanted to go, so she came with me. As for the Oscars, the nominations haven't been announced yet, so we'll talk about it later."

After answering the questions, Chen Shou got into the car, and his assistant led him to the Rose Garden.

I told Lao Guo and his wife in advance that he had returned and was on his way to the Rose Garden.

Mr. and Mrs. Guo were surprised that Chen Shouzhe arrived at the Rose Garden first, as they were both at home and waiting for him at the door when he arrived.

"Godfather, godmother," Chen Shou said.

"Didn't you just get back? Why are you here?" Old Guo is a shrewd man. Chen Shou's first stop after returning was not his villa, nor the horse farm, nor the company, but his home. There was definitely something fishy going on.

"I just missed you all," Chen Shou said with a smile.

"Do you think I believe that?" Old Guo said with a stern face.

"Really." Chen Shou smiled but didn't explain anything. He was tired from flying, so he took a shower at Lao Guo's house and prepared to rest.

Mr. and Mrs. Guo were looking at the Golden Globe trophy and even took a picture.

"This is really rare. There are only two in the whole country. The other one is for director Chen Kaige, which is a foreign language award. Yours is for Best Director." Old Guo looked at it in his hand for a while and then put it aside.

"It's alright if you leave it here for now," Chen Shou said.

"Never mind, take it back to your master and mistress to see. They've probably been thinking about you for a while now."

“I already told them in advance that I would come here first and then go back tomorrow.”

As darkness fell, Chen decided to sleep there, avoiding jet lag for a short time. When he woke up, it was already daylight. He walked out of the yard alone and headed towards another villa.

"Up so early?" The nanny opened the door, and Yan Danchen was already eating breakfast inside the room; she had gained quite a bit of weight.

"What do you think? He woke up, and so did I." There was a crib nearby, and a baby wrapped up tightly was blowing bubbles.

"You came empty-handed?"

"I was in such a rush to come back that I didn't bring anything." "Where's the trophy?"

"Put it with your godfather."

Am I really that shameful?

"Let's talk about it when the child is older."

"Forget it, anyway, I'm the one who raised this child. You're just a man who provided the chromosomes."

"Spend less time on Weibo."

"I want you to manage."

"Take good care of yourself during your postpartum period. I've prepared a movie for you after the New Year."

"what movie?"

"Main theme".

"With Golden Shield?"

She had also heard about Chen Shouzhe's trip to Jincheng, because someone had asked her for information. Yan Danchen was the female lead in several of Chen Shouzhe's movies, so perhaps she could get some information through her.

“Yes, there’s a female police officer role, and you’re quite suitable,” Chen Shou said.

Yan Danchen smiled with satisfaction and nodded, saying, "I'll talk about it after I've recovered a bit; I've gained over ten pounds."

She glanced at Chen Shouzhe, who had gained a lot of weight since becoming pregnant and was now in postpartum confinement, unable to move around much, and was slowly recovering.

Back from Yan Danchen's place, Lao Guo had a habit of sleeping in late and probably wouldn't get up until noon. Chen Shou simply ignored him, took his things, and drove back to the horse farm.

Just in time for breakfast, his wife and daughter were already waiting at the door.

"father!"

Seeing Chen Shouzhe get out of the car, the little girl couldn't wait to run out in her cotton-padded coat, stepping through the snow.

"Oh dear, what are you doing outside? It's so cold."

When Chen Shouzhe saw his daughter running over, his heart almost melted. He quickly went over, squatted down, and picked the child up in his arms.

"Hehe, Daddy, I miss you so much."

I miss you too.

The assistant saw Chen Shouzhe like this in the car. Only his daughter could make Chen Shouzhe truly happy. Outside, Chen Shouzhe was a powerful and influential figure, but at home, he was still a doting father to his daughter.

"Stop playing around, it's cold outside. Come in quickly, your master is already waiting for you."

"Here it is, Xiao Fang, bring the things in."

"it is good."

Two assistants unloaded the items from the car and carried them inside.

Chen Shouzhe didn't buy many things; almost everything was bought by Yang Mi, for the children and the elders in the family.

She and Chen Shou have no official status, but they have a daughter. Now that she sees the crisis, she is buying these things as the mistress of the house.

"Honestly, you buy so much stuff every time you go abroad," the teacher's wife said with a laugh when she saw the pile of things.

"Brother, do you have any toys?" Yu Lao Er asked.

"No."

"Where did the boss go?"

"He's reading English."

"Second brother, go and call your brother to come eat."

"Don't go."

"disobedient?"

"Hmph, no gift."

"If you don't listen, I'll hit you!" Chen Caiyu said, waving her little fist.

"Look at your daughter, all she knows is fighting."
