The next day, the morning sunlight streamed through the window and shone on Ye Chong's face.

The latter opened his eyes groggily, his memory still stuck on the last cigarette he smoked the night before.

What did Sister hope say last night?

He went to bed late last night, and since he had just recovered from a cold and then encountered a series of events, he couldn't sleep well all night.

He got up to brush his teeth and wash his face, and he was still somewhat dazed when he arrived at the film set.

An office building near Xishan Bridge.

Tu Da moved the equipment here, and will return to Xishan Bridge at night.

There weren't many scenes during the day, and the crew members chatted and laughed, feeling quite relaxed.

Ye Chong first went to the second floor to check the filming location, and seeing that there were no problems, he walked to the third floor with a stern face.

Upon arriving at his seat, the first thing he did was light a cigarette.

My mind is still a complete mess, but that's okay, daydreaming is a perfectly normal thing to do.

"View assets".

[Hua Yu Zheng Jing Xian Sheng System Reminder:]

Your current assets are: 12 Acting Cards (D), 5 Acting Cards (C), 1 Acting Card (B), 1 Director Card (D), and 1 Director Card (C).

Current Shop Balance: 7500 Gentleman Coins

A month's effort was finally worthwhile. Speaking of which, was Xiaohong's temptation last night only worth 400 Gentlemen's Coins?

Ye Chong sighed helplessly. If it weren't for Little Ye's fussing every morning, he would have almost thought he was impotent!

As for the acting card B, this is the only acting card for a top-tier actor extracted from Chen Jianbin, and it's best used in the scenes of Investiture of the Gods.

In a drama like "The Unknown," there's really not much point in using it.

This year, barring any unforeseen circumstances, there will be two films/TV series. TV series are currently the safest way to make money. Next year's plans need to be made in advance; one film and one TV series could be produced.

"Open the store."

[Entertainment Mall Launched]

The blue mall reappeared before his eyes, but he didn't even glance at the amazing prize cards; he simply couldn't afford them.

As for movies, I'm planning to try and register based on my memory first, so there's no rush.

"My Regiment, Soldiers' Assault?"

Both of these TV series are military-themed. If they are acquired, coupled with the success of "Bright Sword," they will definitely be huge hits!

"Five thousand dollars isn't too expensive."

Ye Chong was thinking about a plan when he took out a match and lit a cigarette. He didn't even notice a figure walking towards him.

"The remaining two thousand five..."

Suddenly, Ye Chong's eyes froze.

"This one is actually available in the online store? And it's fully licensed, why?"

"Why? Why?"

A fresh shampoo scent wafted into my nose, and a small, translucent white hand waved back and forth in front of me.

Ye Chong shook his head, his gaze becoming focused.

In front of him stood Liu Yifei, the "Fairy Sister," with her hands behind her back, bending over and looking at him charmingly.

"Here you are?" He quickly threw the cigarette on the ground and stomped on it twice.

"Mmm!" Yifei smiled sweetly, as if she had forgotten the unpleasantness of last night and did not mention his smoking.

Today's outfit was still a hoodie and jeans. She hooked her legs and lightly tapped her toes on the ground twice, her phoenix eyes full of joy.

"Yes, I'm going to get my makeup done in a bit. You're the director, is there anything you can tell me?"

Ye Chong's eyes lit up.

Now I'm truly awake.

Yes, come on over.

He raised his hand to pat Yifei's shoulder, but she was startled and stood up to avoid his large hand.

"Were you serious about taking that half-step back?"

What are you doing?

She crossed her arms again, her sharp eyes scrutinizing Ye Chong.

"I was just trying to encourage you. If a pat on the shoulder doesn't work, let's try a handshake, okay?"

"encourage?"

"Yes, that's my secret! Just ask the other actors; sincere encouragement from the director allows them to perform exceptionally well!"

"What nonsense!"

The two remained locked in a stalemate.

Looking into Ye Chong's sincere eyes, Yi Fei hesitated for a moment before extending her hand.

[Acting Card D successfully used]

"Go put on your makeup, just a simple one will do. The most important thing is your clothes."

After saying that, Ye Chong stopped looking at her and started checking the surveillance camera.

Why are you being so serious today?

Yifei withdrew her hand and looked at her old classmate suspiciously.

Ye Chong has a classic face and a temperament that is somewhat similar to John Lone. When he gets serious, he can really give people a sense of pressure.

I'm not used to it anymore. I deliberately didn't mention what happened last night and magnanimously forgave you. I didn't expect you to put on such a show for me.

"snort--"

"?"

Yifei kicked the cigarette butt on the ground and walked downstairs, looking back every few steps.

Twenty minutes later.

"Scene 51 of 'The Unknown,' shot one, the first time, action!"

With Tu Da's approval, the cameo scenes officially began.

In a conference room on the second floor, a three-meter-square green screen was hung on one wall, and in front of the green screen was a host's table.

Liu Yifei had changed into a business outfit, wearing a blue shirt and black slim-fit trousers. She had her hair up and was wearing black-rimmed glasses.

Two cameras were pointed at her, and the lights on either side were slightly dazzling.

For some reason, she felt exceptionally good today.

She took a deep breath, placed one hand on the script, and the other hand naturally in front of her chest, her bright, almond-shaped eyes looking towards the camera.

"Welcome to our hottest local news program, 'Gazette Corner'!"

"As you all know, there was a robbery of a mobile phone store a couple of days ago. According to the police report released the day before yesterday..."

That's right, she made a cameo appearance as a news anchor, and she had quite a few lines.

Meanwhile, on the third floor, in front of the surveillance camera, Liu's mother appeared behind Ye Chong at some point.

The two did not exchange words; Liu's mother simply watched her daughter in the camera lens.

You acted really well, baby.

My baby was born to do this!

Liu's mother glanced at Ye Chong and saw that he was staring intently at the screen, not knowing whether he was looking at the people or the scenes.

"Cut—This part won't work!"

Just as Liu's mother finished thinking about it, Ye Chong put down the walkie-talkie, got up, and started walking downstairs.

She quickly caught up with him.

When the two arrived at the center of the set, Yifei was touching up her makeup.

Ye Chong walked up to her and tapped her forehead with his hand.

[Acting Card (D) successfully used]

"Eh? Eh? Eh!"

Liu's mother frowned and quickly stepped forward to pull him away.

Ye Chong ignored her and smiled at Liu Yifei.

"Old classmate, you did a pretty good job in the first half, but you didn't memorize your lines well."

Yifei blushed, her eyebrows furrowed into a V-shape, and she was about to explode when she caught a glimpse of the crowd around her and subconsciously lowered her head.

Annoying! There are so many people here, can't you even give me some face?

"Ahem!"

She coughed, but Ye Chong ignored her.

"Ahem!"

"Stop coughing. Even though it's dubbed in post-production, you still need to lip-sync, right? Remember not to forget your lines again!"

"you!"

Ye Chong ignored her gaze, raised an eyebrow at her, said nothing more, and turned to leave.

Liu's mother looked around and then silently retreated to the side.

Is Ye Chong really that close to Qianqian?

When did this happen?

Ye Chong returned to the third floor and sat back down in front of the monitor.

It wasn't that she forgot her lines; it was that her acting was off-time, and the difference between before and after was too great. Yifei lost control a bit.

"Ouch—Ms. Liu Yifei, tuck your teeth in, don't let them show anymore, ah!"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"Hate!"

Yi Fei stared intently at the camera. If she didn't have to film, she would have loved to go upstairs and beat Ye Chong to death right then and there.

That annoying guy always gives me weird nicknames.

but……

Yifei's lips curved slightly, a faint smile blooming like a summer lotus.

However, his cheeky attitude is much better than before...

While the crew of "The Unknown" was busy filming, another movie related to it had already been completed.

11:00 AM, Huayi Building.

In the third-floor screening room, as the theater lights came on, a group of people clapped and stood up.

"I've always believed in Director Lu's talent; this is truly a touching film."

Lu Chuan's small eyes darted around, and she took the initiative to shake hands with Mr. Wang.

"Mr. Wang, what you promised me before..."

Xiao Wang coughed lightly and turned his gaze to the producer beside him, who immediately nodded and left.

"Director Lu, please."

"please."

The two moved to an office on the sixth floor.

Two cups of fine Longjing tea were served, and only then did Mr. Wang begin to speak.

"Your matter is still under consideration by your elder brother."

"Consider? Consider what!"

Lu Chuan held up two fingers and tapped them on the nanmu coffee table, making a trembling sound: "He's disgusting me to this extent, and you're still considering it?"

Seeing that Mr. Wang was still sipping his tea and deep in thought, Lu Chuan let out a sigh of relief and picked up her teacup as well.

"This time, 'Kekexili' will go to Tokyo, and the Golden Horse and Golden Rooster Awards will also be held there."

"Hmm..." Young Master Wang maintained his composure, crossing his legs and remaining silent.

"..."

Lu Chuan knew that the old man wouldn't help unless she brought out something real.

"As for Wong Jinghua, I've asked my father to try and persuade her, but I can't guarantee how many celebrities he can get back!"

Mr. Wang then smiled and nodded, raising his Longjing tea glass to clink with his.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Mr. Lu. I am deeply grateful."

Lu Chuan eagerly drank the tea and hurriedly asked, "What about that Ye Gou matter?"

"That Ye Chong doesn't have any powerful backing; he just has some connections with the China Film Group and is a director at the Beijing Film Academy. Banning him is one thing, but we..."

"This won't do!"

"Hey, hey, don't rush." ​​Little Wang raised his hand to signal him to calm down.

Xiao Wang stood up and slowly walked to the French windows.

Watching the ants crawling on the street, he scoffed, "That guy has his own studio. It's much easier to ruin his films and reputation than to blacklist a director!"

"If you blacklist the director, you'll still have to consider the Beijing Film Academy's opinion. We can take a two-pronged approach: block his films and ruin his reputation. Then he'll be abandoned by everyone and achieve nothing. Wouldn't that be more painful for him than killing him?"

"Hehehe..."

Lu Chuan's rat-like face finally broke into a smile.

"Young Master Wang always has a way!"

"Hmm... then it's decided."

Lu Chuan stood up, and the two shook hands again.

"Please, Mr. Wang."

"We're all on the same side, let's not talk about these things."

The two looked at each other and smiled, neither knowing how much of that smile was genuine.

……

"Brother, come out."

The door to the lounge opened, and Wang Zhongjun took two steps to his side, adjusting his glasses.

"He agreed?"

"Didn't you hear that?"

Wang Zhongjun sighed softly, his brows furrowed with an unyielding sorrow.

"The stars in the company are getting more and more restless."

"Terrible!"

Wang Zhonglei spat out abruptly, his face trembling as he spoke.

"That son of a bitch Wang Jinghua, I saw it all back then, that bitch is a complete traitor."

Seeing his younger brother get angry, Wang Zhongjun neither tried to persuade nor criticized him; he simply adjusted his glasses once more.

A gentle sunlight bathed her fair face.

"Have your men keep a close eye on things. You go and talk to Fan Xiaopang yourself. Talk to all those who are wavering."

"How do we negotiate?"

How you talk is your business.

"besides!"

As he spoke, Wang Zhongjun turned to look at his younger brother, his face still bearing a faint gentle expression.

"Tighten your belt! I don't want to see any more news about you and Huo Siyan!"

Wang Zhonglei suddenly shrank his neck.

"understood."

Neither of them mentioned Lu Chuan's request throughout the entire meeting. It seemed that suppressing an unknown director was no different from crushing an ant.
