I am a historical film director in the entertainment industry.

They don't possess the youthful, sweet beauty of teenage girls; rather, they become more mature, sophisticated, and charming with age, exuding femininity and elegance.

Li Xiaoran was fair-skinned and beautiful when she was young, but she was still a bit naive; as she got older, she exuded a cool and gentle temperament, and her skin and figure remained stunning, giving her a quiet and elegant mature charm.

Zeng Li has an exceptionally good bone structure. She was simply radiant when she was young, but as she got older, she softened her sharp features and gained a dignified, elegant, and composed aura. Her cool and sophisticated temperament became more and more charming with age, making her the type of woman who gets more attractive with time.

In her youth, Chen Hong was a stunningly beautiful classical woman. In middle age, she lost her girlish charm and gained a gentle and noble air, dignified and composed, with the inherent weight of a well-bred lady. Her temperament made her even more commanding in public.

Zhang Meng was lively and beautiful in her youth, with a touch of coquettishness; after maturing, she exuded a powerful aura, becoming capable, sophisticated, and charming, intellectual yet alluring, her femininity only increasing with age.

These four women don't rely on youthful looks to maintain their beauty. Instead, they have good bone structure, a stable temperament, and excellent manners. Time hasn't taken away their beauty; instead, it has added depth and charm to them. They truly become more uniquely attractive with age.

A beautiful woman is never afraid of the passage of time.
Li Xiaoran is gentle and graceful, Zeng Li is aloof and cool, Chen Hong is dignified and elegant, and Zhang Meng is charming and alluring. They are all sculpted by time, and the older they get, the more captivating their charm becomes.

How fortunate he is to have four stunning beauties by his side.

He had collected all four of the most exquisite beauties in the world, and the years had not been wasted. With such beautiful women by his side, it was truly the greatest blessing and fortune in his life. Cheng Sheng was filled with emotion.

"You have such a sweet tongue, no wonder you managed to win over beauties like Zeng Li." Chen Hong said, snuggling closer to Cheng Sheng's chest as if seeking comfort.

"Them? You noticed?" Cheng Sheng asked, somewhat surprised.

"Don't think you've kept your relationship with Zeng Li and Li Xiaoran a secret. Anyone with eyes can see it; it's just that no one has exposed it yet," Chen Hong said with a sly smile.

"No way! There are only some rumors circulating outside, they have no idea about my relationship with them." Cheng Sheng shook his head.

Chen Hong smirked and said smugly, "I was just kidding. The outside world doesn't know, but I do know that you're having affairs with Zeng Li and Li Xiaoran."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Sheng breathed a sigh of relief. If the outside world really knew, this sensational scandal would probably be flying everywhere.

"Sister Hong, how did you know?"

“Every time I meet you, you smell like another woman. Plus, I saw on the news that you were getting close to Zeng Li and Li Xiaoran, so I knew what was going on,” Chen Hong said with a smile.

Cheng Sheng never expected Chen Hong to have such a keen sense of smell.

He had a few affairs with Zeng Li and Li Xiaoran, and then he went to see Chen Hong. He had taken a shower before going to see her, but Chen Hong still managed to smell it.

"Ahem!" Cheng Sheng coughed twice, changing the subject, "By the way, filming for 'Blue Is the Warmest Color' has wrapped up. Which film festival in Europe does Director Chen plan to take this movie to?"

“The Berlin and Cannes film festivals ended in the first half of this year, and Chen Kaige plans to take this film to the Venice Film Festival,” Chen Hong said.

"Is it too late?" Cheng Sheng frowned. The Venice Film Festival is held from the end of August to the beginning of September. It's already August. Actually, he wanted Chen Kai to take this film to the Berlin Film Festival next year.

"He has already registered and is just waiting to finish making it and send it to the competition," Chen Hong said.

"The review process? That takes a lot of time. Can we make it in time?" Cheng Sheng was very doubtful, knowing that the content of "Blue Is the Warmest Color" would be very difficult to pass the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television's review.

Chen Hong said, "Chen Kaige has no intention of submitting it for review at all."

"Ah!" Cheng Sheng was shocked. He submitted the film to the competition without it being approved. Wasn't he afraid of being banned from directing in China? How could a big-name director like him be doing the work of underground workers?

"Shocking, right? Actually, I was shocked too when I heard him say it. A big director like him doing something like this? But thinking about his experiences in recent years, it's not so shocking," Chen Hong sneered. Hearing Chen Hong's words, Cheng Sheng understood after a moment's thought.

In another world, Chen Kaige has always had a strong desire to win the top prize at the three major European film festivals, but his mindset has shifted from "eagerly pursuing awards" to "valuing his works and international influence" over time.

Now is the time when Chen Kai is most eager to win another award at one of the three major European film festivals.

Therefore, given the opportunity to win an award, it's understandable that Chen Kai would switch to underground work, risking being banned from directing.

"It seems Director Chen is very attached to the three major European film festivals. I hope he can win an award this time, so that I can say I've done right by him." Cheng Sheng said to Chen Hong with a slight smile.

Chen Hong rolled her eyes and pinched Cheng Sheng's ribs with her small hand, which made Cheng Sheng take a deep breath.

"You're talking nonsense!" Chen Hong said coquettishly.

“I feel that writing one script for him is not enough. I will give him a new script next year,” Cheng Sheng said earnestly.

Chen Hong looked at Cheng Sheng gratefully, knowing that Cheng Sheng did this entirely because of her.

If it weren't for her, Cheng Sheng definitely wouldn't be writing scripts for others.

"Ah Sheng, thank you for everything you've done for me, but unfortunately we can't make it public."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Sheng gently kissed her forehead and said, "Love is never about possession, but about mutual understanding. As long as we love each other in our hearts, why should we care about whether we are together or not!"

"Yes, from now on, you will be the only one who touches my body," Chen Hong said, moved.

"Sister Hong, I love you."

As Cheng Sheng spoke, he kissed her directly.

After a period of trials and tribulations.

They spent the night in the large apartment, and the next day, the two secretly left and went their separate ways.

After returning home and changing his clothes, Cheng Sheng did not linger at home but went straight to the company to learn about the company's recent situation from Xing Aina.

The TV series "The Legend of Zhao Yun" and "Princess Pingyang Zhao" finished filming a week ago and are now officially in post-production. The first broadcast rights for these two TV series were sold to CCTV before filming even began.

As the largest television station in China, CCTV offered a relatively high price, but it was more reliable. In addition, considering important factors such as policy guidance, platform positioning, and institutional influence, Shengli Film and Television Company chose to sell the TV series to CCTV.

Of course, only serious dramas are sold to CCTV; CCTV does not buy idol dramas.

CCTV has also set the premiere dates for the two dramas.

Victory Film Company has also begun promoting the two dramas, releasing some trailers and promotional posters.

Fans are eagerly anticipating these two TV series. (End of Chapter)
