Huayu is here for you

Chapter 151 The Puzzled Sister K

At the welcome banquet, Lin Yu also learned about Cai Yinong's work plans for the sugar figurine. It was similar to what Lin Yu had thought. After "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", Cai Yinong was preparing to film another sequel to "Chinese Paladin". However, Lin Yu also offered a slight suggestion.

"Sister K, I know you're still using similar casting methods as before, and I know you have some connections with both sides, but artists from Hong Kong and Taiwan aren't much better than those from the mainland. In the future, when casting for TV dramas, try to prioritize mainland actors. If there are suitable actors from Hong Kong and Taiwan who are willing to come, give them a chance. If they don't want to come, just let them get lost! There are no conditions to mention."

Furthermore, the mainland's development is the mainstream of this industry in the future, so they should be the ones begging you. Even a supporting role shouldn't be treated like before, where people think they can boss others around and choose this or that just because they have some fame. If they don't want to act, just tell them to get lost and go home. Don't indulge them. Our mainland actors can carry the box office and ratings just as well.

"I understand, Mr. Lin."

Hearing Lin Yu's words, Cai Yinong felt a sense of pride and triumph, as if she now had someone backing her up!

Now she wanted to see who would dare to bare their teeth at her again, so she would open the door and let—well, tell Lin Yu.

At the dinner table, Hu Ge and Yuan Hong were slightly unaccustomed to this sudden change in their superior-subordinate relationship, but they were also quite excited. "President Lin/Brother Yu, your words are so domineering!"

"Old Hu, make some time in your schedule after you finish filming 'The Condor Heroes'! Your brother Yu will give you a big gift!" Lin Yu said to Cai Yinong, then turned to look at Hu Ge.

Yuan Hong: "!!!"

Li Guoli: "?!?!"

Cai Yinong: "~(▽~)~"

"Brother Yu? Is it going to be in your movie? What kind? What role do I play?" Old Hu, who was still inwardly marveling at Lin Yu's domineering presence, asked excitedly, "Hehe, a romance film! I'll be starring alongside Xixi, the budget should be around 100 million, and you'll be the second male lead. It'll be released worldwide!" Lin Yu laughed, "Xiao Hong? You should also make time for yourself! The third male lead."

The four people at the dinner table were instantly overwhelmed with joy upon hearing Lin Yu's words.

"This gift is truly generous!"

But before they could even finish expressing their surprise, Lin Yu threw another bomb at them.

"You two, would you like to work with Jackie Chan? My next movie should be the one I'm making with him. The romance movie will probably be a bit later. You two can come and make a cameo appearance when you have some free time! It won't be a big role, but you'll have some special shots and lines."

As soon as Lin Yu finished speaking, the four of them swallowed hard in unison.

"Then—then what is this movie?" Li Guoli and Cai Yinong asked hesitantly.

"It's also being released globally, so the investment must be substantial, probably around seventy million US dollars!"

"Holy shit!"

"Oh My God!"

"Brother Yu, are you serious?"

"Mr. Lin, you're not joking, are you?"

Lin Yu found the four of them's shocked expressions rather amusing. "It's true, but—their roles are really small and won't take up too much of your time. It shouldn't affect 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes,' so there's no need for you to be so excited."

"Does this have anything to do with the amount of screen time? Besides, you just said there are special shots and lines. It's a $70 million blockbuster! Just getting a cameo would be a fierce competition, right? What is 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes'? Even if this TV series is canceled, we'd still have to go to your company, right? This meal—it really tested our nerves." The four thought to themselves, "I'll let you know when it's time. You guys focus on filming 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes' for now!" Lin Yu continued:

Just then, after recovering from her shock, Cai Yinong looked at Lin Yu and tentatively asked, "Um—Mr. Lin? Could you add another actress to your film? The company just signed a young lady; she's very promising. Would you—want to consider her?"

"Liu Shishi?"

"Hmm, you know her?"

"I know," Lin Yu pondered for a moment, "Okay! This girl is a dancer, right? It should be easier for her to learn some routines. Let's add her to Big Brother's film."

Cai Yinong was immediately taken aback: "Really? I just mentioned it casually and it actually got added?"

"Hehe—thank you, Mr. Lin."

"No need to be so polite. She's practically a Starlight artist now, so let's keep the good stuff in the family!" Lin Yu said casually.

Adding Liu Shishi to the cast is indeed a viable idea. After all, in the original "Wanted," there was only one female assassin, a typical case of male dominance over female. Perhaps a different actress would have been even more effective.

Today's welcome banquet hosted by Hugo was a truly delightful experience for both host and guests!

When the five of them left, it was already past 8 p.m., and they had been eating for more than two hours.

However, since Lin Yu arrived by car, he did not drink alcohol. After the welcome banquet, Lin Yu drove directly home.

On the way back, Cai Yinong, still in high spirits, couldn't wait to go back and inform Liu Shishi, so she called Xiao Shizi right there in the car.

It must be said that during this period, Cai Yinong really liked Liu Shishi.

"Feed? Sister K, what's wrong?"

Cai Yinong had barely dialed the number for three seconds when Liu Shishi answered.

"Shishi, Sister K has some amazing news to tell you!" Cai Yinong said happily.

Hearing Cai Yinong's cheerful words, Liu Shishi became slightly wary, because this older sister often teased her.

"Hmm—K-sister, what's the good news? Why are you so excited?"

"President Lin wants you to star in his movie! And it'll be a collaboration with Jackie Chan!" Cai Yinong said excitedly.

Liu Shishi, seemingly unfazed, remarked, "I knew it! If you wanted to tease me, you could have chosen something more realistic. This news is obviously fake! Cheng Long? President Lin? How could that be?"

When Cai Yinong mentioned "General Manager Lin," Liu Shishi immediately thought of Lin Yu himself, because only Lin Yu could be called "General Manager Lin" for making sugar figurines, especially since he was also involved in filmmaking.

"Hehe—Sister K, I understand, I'll prepare well." Liu Shishi smiled.

Hearing Liu Shishi's calm words, Cai Yinong was a little confused.

"What the hell?! This is such big news! Shouldn't you be incredibly excited? How can you be so calm?!"
