My capital is quite large.

The filming location of "Chinese Paladin 3" in Hengdian, Zhejiang.

Having just finished a wire stunt scene, Yang Mi, dressed in a charming red costume, sat back wearily in her personal folding chair. Her assistant quickly handed her ice water and her vibrating phone.

"Hey? Sister Zeng, what's wrong?" Yang Mi unscrewed the bottle cap, took a sip of water, and answered her former manager's call.

The voice on the other end of the phone was somewhat complicated, even carrying a hint of disbelief: "Mimi, I have something to tell you, so be prepared. Just yesterday, Director Li Shaohong sold your agency contract, along with Li Xin, who plays the young Baochai, and Yang Yang, who plays the adult Baoyu, all in one package."

"puff--"

Yang Mi nearly spat out her water, her beautiful fox-like eyes widening instantly: "Sold?! Sold to whom? Huayi Brothers or Orange Sky Entertainment?"

"Neither. It was an internet company owner from Shenzhen named Li Feng. I heard he spent a full 20 million yuan in cash to buy out the three of you from Rong Xinda."

The agent sighed, "The new company over there is called Haofeng Network. Their main business is mobile games, and they recently established a film and television department."

After hanging up the phone, Yang Mi gripped her phone, her brows furrowed tightly.

Li Feng? Haofeng Network?

She was not unfamiliar with these two names.

A few days ago, when the crew was taking a break, I happened to see that CCTV news report on TV.

That young internet tycoon who made tens of millions of dollars in Europe and America and was hailed by the media seems to have this name.

"What's with this nouveau riche game developer suddenly running wild in the film and television industry? Does he really think money in the entertainment industry is so easy to make?"

Yang Mi snorted inwardly.

As a native Beijinger who has been in the entertainment industry for many years, I've seen too many nouveau riche bosses who have a little spare money and want to dabble in the film and television industry while also trying to sexually harass a few female celebrities.

In her opinion, although this Mr. Li was rich, he was a complete novice in the intricate entertainment industry.

"Honey, what do we do now?" the assistant asked worriedly. "I heard Li Xin and Yang Yang were taken to Shenzhen to meet their new boss last night. Should we ask the crew for leave and fly over to pay our respects?"

"Are you asking for leave? What kind of leave?"

Yang Mi rolled her eyes, a sly smile playing on her lips. "Chinese Paladin 3 is a big production right now. As the female lead, my schedule is packed every day. A single day the production stops is a huge financial drain. That's a perfectly legitimate reason!"

"Could you please call the new company over there and tell them that I really can't get away, and we'll talk about it after this filming wraps up?"

She doesn't care about new or old bosses.

The ten-year contract I signed back then, now has less than two years left.

Once these two years are over, and with the popularity of "Chinese Paladin 3" airing, she will never work for any capitalist again. She wants to set up her own studio and go solo!

Therefore, her only strategy for this sudden new employer was to stall!

As long as she stays on set and doesn't show her face, what can that internet boss in Shenzhen do to her? Can he really interfere with Tangren's production team and forcibly kidnap her back?

With that in mind, Yang Mi tossed her phone to her assistant with a clear conscience and picked up the script to continue reading.

She could even picture the hot-blooded young boss, Mr. Li, jumping up and down in frustration, yet utterly helpless, when he learned that she had refused to report for duty.

……

However, Li Feng, who was far away in Shenzhen at the moment, did not take Yang Mi's little thoughts to heart at all.

He picked up the internal phone on the table and dialed the finance director: "Old Zhang, immediately transfer ten million RMB from the company account to the public account of the New Rural Construction Economic Development Zone."

"Please specify in the remarks: Special fund for the first phase construction of Haofeng Network East China Data Center and agricultural assistance fund. Process immediately."

"Yes, Mr. Li, I'll get on it right away!" The CFO agreed without hesitation.

Five minutes later, Li Feng's Nokia phone, which was on the table, rang precisely on time.

On the other end of the phone, Secretary Wang of the district committee spoke with such excitement that his voice almost pierced the receiver: "General Manager Li! You're so capable! Rest assured, the district will handle whatever you've entrusted to us perfectly!"

"The groundbreaking ceremony for the new police station in our development zone has already taken place at the entrance of Lijia Village! The excavator is parked just 100 meters away from your old house! The project approval for the health center has also been granted, and it will be operational by the end of the year at the earliest!"

"Then I'll have to trouble Secretary Wang." Li Feng hung up the phone with satisfaction.

With this ten million yuan invested, my parents no longer have to worry about their safety and medical care back in their hometown.

Having dealt with this major concern, Li Feng leaned back in his chair, his gaze falling on Zhang Xinyu, who was pushing open the door to deliver documents for signing.

Today, Zhang Xinyu wore a tight black bodycon business skirt, her long and straight legs wrapped in alluring black stockings.

After these few days of nourishment and refinement, her aura has become increasingly mature and charming, like a ripe peach.

"Boss, this is the budget approval form from the 'Meteor Shower' production team. Please sign it." Zhang Xinyu walked to the desk, bent down slightly, and a breathtaking glimpse of snow-white skin was revealed at her neckline.

Li Feng didn't take the document; instead, he reached under the desk and pressed the remote control.

With a "click," the mahogany door to the office automatically locked itself.

Immediately afterwards, the blinds of the panoramic floor-to-ceiling glass walls slowly descended, completely isolating the entire office from the large open-plan office area outside.

Hearing the sound of the door lock, Zhang Xinyu's heart skipped a beat, her cheeks flushed instantly, and her eyes became as gentle as water.

"Boss...it's still working hours." She said coquettishly, but her body honestly leaned softly into Li Feng's arms.

However, instead of embracing her as usual, Li Feng reached out and pinched her delicate chin with a slight force.

"Ouch... Boss, that hurts." Zhang Xinyu winced in pain, her peach blossom eyes instantly welling up with tears. She looked at Li Feng's suddenly cold face with some confusion.

"Xinyu, do you feel that your position by my side is irreplaceable?" Li Feng's eyes were deep and cold, carrying a sense of oppressiveness that could not be looked at directly.

"I...I didn't, boss! I'm absolutely loyal to you!" Zhang Xinyu was terrified, her voice trembling.

"No?"

Li Feng sneered, "A few days ago in the office, when Lao Han eliminated Shuangzi, did you really think I couldn't see through his little scheme of eagerly recommending himself?"

"Stop with your little schemes about making it in the entertainment industry. Remember this: everything you have now isn't because you're pretty, but because you're obedient."

"Be my chief secretary, and no one else can see this except me, understand?"

This domineering and possessive beating did not humiliate Zhang Xinyu; instead, it made this woman, who admired strength, feel weak in the knees.

"I understand... Boss, I really understand!"

With red eyes, Zhang Xinyu knelt down beside Li Feng's boss chair without hesitation.

"I'm not going anywhere, I'm not going to be a celebrity anymore... For all eternity, I'll be by the boss's side, only for the boss, only serving the boss..."

Seeing her completely submissive appearance, the coldness in his eyes gradually dissipated.

He loosened the tie around his neck, grabbed Zhang Xinyu's hair, pulled her up, and slammed her hard onto the large solid wood desk.

The documents on the table were swept all over the floor.

"Since you know you're wrong, then accept the punishment properly."
