Entertainment: Starting with a complete collapse

"He already knows."

Zhao Liyuan, leaning against the headboard, turned her head to look at her son, who was sleeping soundly beside her, and then replied.

"That's good"

Zhang Xue breathed a sigh of relief: "Now that you know, it's nothing. Even if Lin Wan kneels down this time, she won't be able to get Huang Min to remarry her. Also... if he wants to do something to you, don't resist. You've already had a son, so resisting won't make much difference. Just kick Lin Wan out of the game first."

I hung up the phone.

Zhao Liyuan placed her phone on the bedside table, turned off the bedroom light, and then lay on her side in bed. In the dark bedroom, she kept her eyes open instead of going to sleep.

Regarding her agent's advice not to refuse... After meeting Hwang Min that night, Zhao Liyuan did indeed have this concern. After all, she had personally experienced what it was like for Hwang Min to suddenly become violent. Zhao Liyuan knew very well that once he did that, she might not be able to escape, just like on a certain night last year.

She might even make a symbolic struggle, for the simple reason that she ultimately gave birth to a son for him. With Tongtong around, everything else would be in vain.

However, judging from Huang Min's behavior, he seems to really mind that he had been married before. She moved back to live here in April. Huang Min has to pass by the road outside her yard every day. The two don't see each other often, but if they really want to see each other, they can meet after walking a few steps. But most of the time, after he finishes filming and rushes back from the set, he goes straight home and doesn't come over. He also doesn't show any intention of doing anything to her.

She didn't really want to, she just felt a little uneasy.

I never thought I would be reduced to being disliked. And if anyone should be disliked, it should be me disliking Huang Min. He's the one who's really messy. If his affairs were to be made public, I bet many viewers would say, "The entertainment industry is really messy."

Noticing her son move slightly while lying next to her, Zhao Liyuan reached out and gently patted his chest a few times. Once her son calmed down, she lowered her hand and rested her head against him.

She had never met Lin Wan and Huang Minsheng's son, named "Huang Xiubai," nor did she know if he resembled her son. It was best if he didn't; Lin Wan was a woman she truly loathed.

It completely lowers the standard of being a woman, and it seems incredibly shameless.

Two years ago, she drove Huang Min to the point of attempting suicide by hanging. Now that he has succeeded, she wants to remarry him. If she had any backbone, she should honestly raise her and Huang Min's son.

As for how Huang Min handled his relationship with Xu Ying, Zhao Liyuan was quite curious, but since Huang Min was unwilling to talk about it and Xu Ying didn't call to tell her, Zhao Liyuan suppressed her doubts.

"They probably won't abort the child."

Zhao Liyuan thought to herself.

If it were only one pregnancy, that possibility might exist, but to be pregnant with twins at once, as a woman herself, Zhao Liyuan put herself in her shoes and knew that she would definitely be reluctant to give them up, since it's not something that happens very often.

With these thoughts in mind, Zhao Liyuan's eyelids began to feel heavy, and soon after, she fell asleep completely.

Even in the deepest summer nights, the darkness is still not quite complete. At 4:30 in the morning, the sky begins to brighten. The city is not yet fully awake, but early birds are already flying overhead in search of food.

Birdsong could be heard from time to time, and soon the first rays of sunlight shone down from above the city, the halo of light slowly floating and forming a mirror-like scene on the lake.

Just after six o'clock, Zhao Liyuan was awakened by footsteps coming from downstairs. Just as she was about to open her eyes, the bedroom door was pushed open, and her manager, Zhang Xue, rushed in from outside.

"The box office for 'Love Letter to Grandma' reached 200 million yuan yesterday."

Zhang Xue said this in a tone full of envy.

:

"Oh"

Zhao Liyuan turned to look at her and nodded slightly.

There's already a consensus within the entertainment industry that this movie will be a hit. A few years ago, audiences cared a lot about the production cost of a movie, thinking that low-budget movies weren't good. But after the trials of the film market in recent years, audiences have been lured into theaters by big-budget productions costing hundreds of millions of dollars and then tortured for an hour and a half. Now, they no longer care about the production cost of a movie.

On the other hand, those who value ratings and word-of-mouth are relatively more concerned about the quality of the film. So, despite the low production cost of "Letters to Grandma," audiences still appreciate it and may even praise it for being such a good film despite its low budget.

"Doesn't Huang Min live here?"

Zhang Xue asked, "Which building does he live in?"

The innermost building

Zhao Liyuan got out of bed, changed her clothes, and replied.

"Since we live in the same neighborhood, why not take the initiative more often?"

Zhang Xue went into the bed and saw that Tongtong was still sleeping. She lowered her head and kissed his cheek, then reached out and squeezed his diaper. She found that it was already quite bulging, but she did not take him to change it. She would wait until he woke up before changing it, otherwise it would be difficult to soothe him if he started crying.

Children need plenty of sleep and don't like to be woken up.

Hearing her manager say this, Zhao Liyuan neither nodded nor shook her head. The main thing was that it depended on Huang Min. If she didn't want him to come at first, now he could come whenever he wanted, even if she wasn't home, he could come and see his son.

"The box office forecast for 'Love Letter to Grandma' is out. One company has given 2.8 billion, another 2.5 billion, and yet another 2.3 billion. Anyway, Dong Sheng Pictures is going to make a fortune this time."

Zhang Xue was no longer just envious, she was absolutely jealous.

Although the total box office of this film is not as high as that of purely commercial films like "The Witch" and "Extreme Job," it was independently invested in by Dong Sheng Pictures.

Recalling this, Zhang Xue laughed, "I reckon no matter how big a project Dong Sheng Pictures undertakes, the other investors will all participate. Even if Dong Sheng Pictures produces a complete mess, they'll still have to eat it up. By the way, didn't Xu Ying invest five million in 'New World'? You should also put five million in. His projects are incredibly profitable. Losses are minor, not even crippling, just a scratch. And profits are huge. Ren Dong invested five million in 'The Witch,' earning you a year's worth of hard-earned money. If you didn't have that relationship with Huang Min, it would be fine, but since you do, it would be foolish not to use it. At most, you could let him do that..."

Before Zhang Xue could finish speaking, Zhao Liyuan, wearing a white t-shirt and jeans, turned to look at her and said, "So you're going to make you recite poetry outside in the yard, right?"
