Huayu is here for you

However, Han Sanping, who always preferred to eat alone, was somewhat unhappy, and a hint of hostility flashed in his eyes as he looked at Yu Dong. He thought to himself, "I haven't even said anything yet, what are you doing here?"

"Hehe... Mr. Yu, we've only talked about it verbally, it's not that fast. Besides... you should know, with just my brother and me working together, would we lack investment?" Lin Yu said, looking at Yu Dong with a half-smile.

Yu Dong was taken aback by Lin Yu's words. He realized that he had been a bit too direct. After all, he wasn't familiar with Lin Yu, so he couldn't blame Lin Yu for indirectly criticizing him.

"Hehe... I was presumptuous, I'm sorry Director Lin. I'll punish myself with a drink." Yu Dong said, and then drank the wine in his glass in one gulp.

Seeing Yu Dong back down, Lin Yu also dropped his fake smile, picked up his wine glass, and took a small sip.

After all, we've worked together before, so we should give them some face, even if it's not much.

But if Yu Dong still thinks he can just take a slice of the pie from Lin Yu with empty promises, I'll knock his head off. Do you think this is still a few years ago?

Seeing that Lin Yu was no longer undermining him, Yu Dong smiled again.

"Director Lin, I didn't think things through just now. It's up to you. If you agree, Bernard can offer a 20% premium, no matter how much."

"Hehe, we'll see when the time comes," Lin Yu said with a smile.

Hearing Lin Yu's excuses, Han Sanping felt a surge of pleasure, while Yu Dong felt a little uncomfortable.

After hesitating for a few seconds, he said, "Okay, Director Lin, feel free to contact me anytime if you need anything. I'm willing to pay a 30% premium, as long as it's directed by you. I don't even need to read the script."

"Hehe, Mr. Yu is quite generous! But... let's talk about it later!"

Looking at Lin Yu's expression, Yu Dong knew that he couldn't get Lin Yu's promise now. After hesitating for a while, he said goodbye to the others and left dejectedly.

After Yu Dong left, Han Sanping also suppressed his idea of ​​directly asking to invest in Lin Yu's new movie, because he was now unsure whether Lin Yu would just give him a perfunctory answer, although in his mind the chances of Lin Yu agreeing were still quite high.

After greeting Lin Yu again, Han Sanping left Lin Yu's side. After watching Han Sanping leave, Cheng Long did not continue to disturb Lin Yu. After all, Lin Yu was the main character of the banquet, and he could not take up too much of his time.

After Han Sanping and Cheng Long left, Lin Yu continued to flit about in the center of the banquet like a butterfly flitting among flowers. During this time, he chatted a few more words with big names such as Feng Xiaogang and Chen Kaige, while basically glossing over the other unimportant people.

After greeting everyone on the field, Lin Yu also came to the small corner where Miss Liu was.

"Hehe... Senior brother, all done with work? I thought you'd forgotten about me!" Miss Liu teased.

"Hehe... How could that be? It's all just formalities. We have to do it, we can't be impolite."

"Alright, I know you're the star today, I won't monopolize you, how about it? What were you talking about with Uncle Long just now? I heard people around us talking about it." Miss Liu changed the subject:

"I've agreed to let him make a movie, but I haven't decided what to make yet," Lin Yu said calmly.

"Hehe... Is there any for me?" Miss Liu immediately became excited.

Lin Yu: "??? Isn't 'The Witch' enough for you to make?"

"Hmph! You said you'd make me the highest-grossing actress in the world, but one 'The Witch' isn't enough!"

"Didn't you not believe it?"

"I believe you now, is that not allowed?" Miss Liu said shamelessly.

"Hehe...you little rascal. If you also want to collaborate with your older brother...I actually have a script." Lin Yu thought for a moment and said:

"Really? When did you write this? Let me see it!" Miss Liu exclaimed excitedly.

Ms. Liu's excitement startled everyone around her.

"What the heck is Lin Yu? Did he agree to another movie with Liu Yifei? They haven't even filmed 'The Witch' yet, and they've already booked another one?"

"Who knows? Judging from the situation, it seems so. Otherwise, Liu Yifei wouldn't be so happy, showing her gums. She's not curvy at all; I think she's not even as pretty as me. How could Lin Yu be interested in her?"

Upon hearing this, the people around the actress quietly distanced themselves from her.

"Big sister, if you're looking to get yourself killed, don't drag us down with you!"

……

"I'll show you my head right now! Don't you even know what kind of occasion this is? And... watch your step a little, can't you see everyone's staring at you?" Lin Yu said helplessly after glancing around.

Miss Liu immediately realized what was happening and secretly stuck out her tongue at Lin Yu. "Hehe... I was just too happy!"

"By the way, senior, could you chat with Changchang for a bit? She's a little hesitant to greet you first," Miss Liu said, changing the subject.

"Who?" Lin Yu was completely dumbfounded.

"So refreshing!" Miss Liu said blankly, her big, bright eyes wide.

"She's here? I didn't see her earlier."

"She's been with me the whole time, and it seems like she's gone to the bathroom now."

"Okay, I'll talk to her when she gets here."

When the people at the banquet saw Lin Yu sit down next to Liu Yifei, they wisely refrained from disturbing the young couple.

After all, Lin Yu and Liu Yifei are already considered an open secret among people in the industry, it's just that outsiders don't know. There are many cases like theirs, and people won't actively expose each other's secrets. It's an unspoken rule in the industry... except for a few treacherous individuals.

A short while later, Shu Chang, who had gone to the restroom, returned. However, as she walked towards Liu Yifei, she suddenly noticed that there was another person next to her best friend.

"Oh my god, isn't that Lin Yu? What do we do? Why is he sitting next to Qianqian?"

"Oh dear, what's wrong with my brain? He's Xixi's boyfriend, isn't it normal for him to sit next to her?"

"If I go there... won't people say I'm trying to marry above my station?"

Just as Shu Chang was hesitating, Liu Yifei, who was chatting with Lin Yu, inadvertently noticed her lingering not far away.

"Oh no, Xixi saw me." Seeing Liu Yifei waving at her, Shu Chang knew that she would definitely have to get past this hurdle.

So she gritted her teeth and slowly walked towards Lin Yu.

"Director Lin, hello! I'm Shu Chang, and I'm Xixi's best friend." She regretted saying it as soon as it left her mouth.

"Why did I add that last sentence? Doesn't it just make people think I'm trying to climb the social ladder by relying on Xixi?" Shu Chang cursed inwardly.

Looking at the somewhat nervous girl, Lin Yu couldn't help but chuckle to himself, "Am I that scary?"

However, he forgot how much "power" he himself has for an actress of Shu Chang's caliber.

"Hello, Changchang, may I call you that?"

"Yes, Director Lin," Shu Chang quickly chimed in.

"Don't be nervous, sit down first."

Lin Yu smiled and pointed to the seat on the other side of Miss Liu.
