Huayu Entertainment: Starting with Exorcising Evil from a Film Queen

This time, Tang Yan no longer suppressed her emotions. Perhaps it was because of the impending separation, but the noise in the room was louder than ever before.

In the next room, Liu Shishi was just about to fall asleep when that familiar sound entered her ears again.

Unlike the previous subtlety, this time the voice was made no attempt to conceal it.

She felt her face get warm after hearing just two sounds.

Liu Shishi immediately resorted to her old trick, rummaging through the bedside table for earplugs, putting them on, and then covering her head tightly with the blanket.

Even so, the sounds from next door still managed to penetrate through all the barriers and reach her ears.

In the darkness, the blankets grew increasingly stuffy and hot, and Liu Shishi felt her whole body burning up.

"Zhang Ze... Zhang Ze..."

A murmured sound came from the room.

Meanwhile, the storm inside the room lasted for more than an hour before it subsided.

Tang Yan nestled in Zhang Ze's arms, gazing at him with gentle eyes, and softly asked, "Will you forget me?"

Zhang Ze shook his head. "Of course not. It's not like we'll never see each other again. You can call me if you miss me."

Tang Yan rolled her eyes at him, annoyed. "That's not what I meant!"

She asked if he would forget about her after he had so many women around him in the future. After spending time together, she was certain she was completely captivated by this man.

But she also knew perfectly well that this man was a complete womanizer, and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't hold him back.

Even in bed, he tormented her to the point of exhaustion.

She will never be Zhang Ze's last woman.

Thinking of this, a resolute glint flashed in Tang Yan's eyes. She raised her head and looked directly at Zhang Ze.

"I want you to remember me forever!"

Before she finished speaking, her body gently slid off the pillow, her head drooped, and she slowly shrank into the blankets.

"hiss!"

……

The following morning, the cast and crew of the Legend of Sword and Fairy series, who had been making a lot of noise for months, finally came to an end.

Tang Yan's schedule was packed, with almost no time to catch her breath. She had to set off for her next engagement at the crack of dawn.

Zhang Ze escorted her to the hotel entrance.

The morning air still carried a hint of coolness. Tang Yan had changed out of her costume and was wearing simple casual clothes. She looked a little tired, but when she looked at Zhang Ze, she couldn't hide her affection.

The company's nanny van was quietly waiting by the roadside every day.

"I'm leaving." She stood in front of the car door and said goodbye softly.

"Okay, send me a message when you arrive." Zhang Ze nodded.

Without many words, a tacit understanding had already developed between the two.

Tang Yan got into the car, rolled down the window, took one last look at him, and then the car slowly started moving and merged into the traffic.

Zhang Ze stood there until the black van completely disappeared from sight.

After saying a brief goodbye to the other crew members, he hailed a taxi and, carrying all his luggage and the 200,000 yuan salary he had just received, returned to his rented room in Hengdian.

Pushing open the door, the room was empty; Zhao Liying had not yet returned.

A desolate atmosphere swept over us, a stark contrast to the lively atmosphere of the film crew.

Zhang Ze put down his luggage, threw himself onto the sofa, and began to plan how to use the money.

Two hundred thousand is a huge sum of money for ordinary people, but in the money-burning entertainment industry, especially in the early stages of starting a company, this amount of money is not even worth a splash.

The studio's shell has been set up, and this money, as the first seed money, has been deposited into the company's account, marking the beginning.

But going forward, the positions of finance, broker, and assistant are all vacancies that must be filled as soon as possible.

In particular, finance and tax issues are of paramount importance and absolutely cannot afford any mistakes.

There are also agents, which directly affect subsequent resources and development.

Zhang Ze doesn't know many people in the industry, and those he can truly talk to are even fewer.

He took out his phone, thought for a moment, and sent a message to Hu Ge, asking if he had any reliable financial personnel to recommend.

Hu Ge replied to the message almost instantly, readily agreeing to keep an eye out for it.

However, he also admitted that he could only offer some financial assistance, and he was truly unable to help the agent.

He has been with Tangren since his debut, and has only dealt with agents within the company. He is not familiar with other agents in the industry.

In addition, he had been out of the public eye for a while after the car accident, which also significantly impacted his social network.

Zhang Ze was not surprised and thanked him repeatedly.

Good agents are rare and hard to come by; you can't rush things, you can only take it one step at a time.

As for an assistant, it's not really urgent for now.

He tossed his phone aside and began tidying up the small rented room, organizing both of their belongings neatly.

As night deepened, the sound of a key turning came from the doorway.

Zhao Liying is back.

She was dragging a suitcase, her face showing undisguised exhaustion, but when she saw Zhang Ze sitting on the sofa, that exhaustion was instantly replaced by immense joy.

"You're back?"

Her voice was filled with joy.

Zhang Ze stood up, walked over, and naturally took the suitcase from her hand. "Well, my scenes are finished, so I came back first."

Zhao Liying followed behind him, chattering away, sharing all the gossip she had heard on set these past few days, who was having an affair with whom, and which director had lost his temper on set.

The trivial things she talked about filled the quiet rented room with warmth and life again.

As they chatted, Zhao Liying's mood suddenly dipped.

She sat on the edge of the bed, watching Zhang Ze helping her tidy up her things, and hesitated before speaking.

"My filming is almost finished."

"My contract with Huayi Brothers is about to expire."

After she finished speaking, she stopped and just looked at him, waiting for his reaction.

Zhang Ze paused in his movements, turned around, and met her eyes, which held a hint of unease.

"Does what you said before still stand?" she asked softly, a hint of uncertainty in her voice. "You really... intend to sign me?"

It's no wonder she overthinks things.

She has been working her way up in Hengdian for so many years, always playing maids and passersby with few lines in various film crews.

But what about Zhang Ze?

He has only been in Hengdian for a few months, but he has already gone from a featured actor to an important supporting actor, and now he has even landed the male lead role.

This rapid rise made her feel a huge gap.

She even started to feel inferior, wondering if she was holding him back or if she was no longer good enough for him.

Looking at her cautious manner, Zhang Ze suddenly felt a little soft-hearted.

He walked up to her, squatted down, and brought his eyes level with hers.

"Of course it counts."

His answer was without the slightest hesitation.
