Reborn in the Chinese Entertainment Industry: My Childhood Sweetheart is Boss Yang

In the days that followed, Director Gu, who had been working non-stop for more than half a year, finally had some free time!

The major projects I'm currently working on are progressing steadily.

The marketing and distribution of "Source Code" was handled by Su Qing's team, so he didn't need to worry about it at all.

Meanwhile, Ning Hao and his team were working late into the night in the editing room for "Detective Chinatown".

As for "Let the Bullets Fly," it's still raging in theaters right now, and watching the box office numbers jump on the reports every day is incredibly satisfying.

The most exciting news, however, came from the battle reports coming from North America.

James Wan's "Lurking" was incredibly brutal.

When it officially left theaters in North America, it still managed to gross a whopping $1.4 million!

The return on investment is as terrifying as a movie.

That's not all; the key point is that this only accounts for theatrical box office revenue, and the subsequent bulk of revenue from DVD rentals and copyright sales hasn't even been factored in!

Aside from movies, other television projects also went smoothly.

Wei Zheng's "iPartment 2" has successfully started filming in Shanghai. With the foundation of the first season, this wave of investment from GG alone has made a fortune.

The entire Vision Entertainment team is operating at full speed!

The only thing that bothered Gu Heng was his own little fox.

Why?

Because his ancestor is busier than him now!

He's always running around outside, like a dragon whose head is rarely seen.

Gu Heng was in a bad mood!

During the day, he was the only one wandering around the huge courtyard, without even anyone to bicker with.

After living as an empty nester in this courtyard for several days, Gu Heng finally couldn't hold back any longer.

Then I'll go traveling!

After handing over the company's affairs to Chen Kai and Su Qing, Gu Heng, along with Wang Gang, directly bought two first-class tickets to Chengdu.

In Gu Heng's words, the weather in the capital is too dry, and we need to go to Sichuan and Chongqing to experience the humid air.

While you're at it, go see the giant pandas and cleanse your soul, which has become tainted by the pursuit of fame and fortune.

Of course, the main reason is that Chengdu has a lot of delicious food.

In the few days since landing in Chengdu, Gu Heng has completely let loose.

He completely forgot about his image and his airs as a wealthy tycoon.

During the day, I take Wang Gang for a stroll in Kuanzhai Alley, drink covered-bowl tea, and experience the ear-cleaning service provided by an old craftsman.

In the evening, we'll find a secluded hole-in-the-wall restaurant and have hot pot with tripe.

This life is so good, I wouldn't trade it for a god!

Gu Heng also took the opportunity to post on Weibo, recording the wonderful moments of his life!

"After working non-stop for more than half a year, I've finally given myself a break. Also, to those big bosses who always say they want to be powerful women, you'd better watch out, I'm out having some fun. [Image]"

Although Gu Heng is a director, he has quite a few fans.

As soon as the Weibo post was published, many people commented in the comment section.

"Holy crap! We've caught Director Gu in the act! He actually sneaked off to Chengdu!"

"Ahhh! It's in Kuanzhai Alley, right? Ten minutes, Director Gu, wait for me, I'll take a taxi over and bump into you!"

"Stop dreaming, that outfit is obviously for an incognito visit. But what's the meaning behind Director Gu's copywriting? Some big boss? I'm guessing it's our Yang Mi!"

"Hahaha, this is hilarious! Director Gu must be lonely, staying home all the time. Yang Mi has been busy setting up her studio lately, I heard she's working herself to the bone. Director Gu is publicly protesting online!"

Before netizens could finish their jokes, a verified account with a "V" badge quickly appeared in the comments section.

Huang Xiaoming: "We're doing promotional tours, flying to two cities a day and our voices are hoarse from shouting. Don't you have any conscience??"

Huang Xiaoming has been truly aggrieved these past few days.

With the release of "The Original Code" just around the corner, Gu Heng has become a hands-off manager, leaving the lead actors to suffer.

Although everyone knows that Gu Heng never participates in pre-release promotional events.

But that doesn't stop him from filing a complaint!

Netizens were even more amused when they saw the male protagonist personally stepping in to make accusations.

"Poor Xiaoming, not only was he fooled by Director Gu and now he has to work for free."

Immediately after, Liu Qianqian also chimed in.

Liu Yifei: "Wow, the hot pot in Chengdu is so delicious! Can you get me an extra serving of duck intestines? By the way, a certain boss surnamed Yang was complaining to me late last night that someone was at home every day like a nagging wife, complaining that she didn't have time for him... Turns out it's true! [smirking]"

Wow, Liu Qianqian's assist has really excited netizens, who are all making a big fuss in the comments section.

Gu Heng looked at the constant stream of message notifications popping up on his phone and couldn't help but want to laugh.

He clicked on Huang Xiaoming's comment and slowly replied.

"Brother Xiaoming, you've worked hard. This is all the hard work you deserve for the movie to be a big hit. Once the box office is a smash, I'll send you a big red envelope privately."

"Also, the spicy rabbit heads here are really delicious."

I was just enjoying scrolling through the comments when my phone suddenly vibrated.

Caller ID: Little Fox.

Gu Heng answered the phone, and Yang Mi's sweet, childlike voice immediately came from the other end, though it sounded like she was gritting her teeth:

"Gu Heng! You're having a great time in Chengdu!"

Gu Heng shifted into a more comfortable position on the bamboo chair and replied slowly, "It's alright, mainly because the tea is delicious and the ear cleaning was quite thorough. So, Boss Yang's off work?"

"You actually went to eat hot pot behind my back! And you even got your ears cleaned!"

Yang Mi, on the other end of the phone, was furious. "I'm so engrossed in reading the script at the company that my eyes are about to go blind, and you, instead, post pictures on Weibo to annoy me!"

"Oh dear, I didn't want to bother you because you're so busy."

Gu Heng chuckled and joked, "How's Boss Yang's top-secret project going? When can I, as an investor, finally get a glimpse of it?"

Hearing this, Yang Mi's tone changed, becoming arrogant and smug as she said, "Hmph! Soon! Once I've assembled the whole team, you'll be absolutely shocked! Don't be begging me for investment then!"

"Alright, alright, I'm waiting to suck up to Boss Yang."

"You're smart to know what's good for you! I'm not talking to you anymore, Sister Su Qing wants to have a meeting with me." The little fox hurriedly tossed out a sentence, "Bring me back two rabbit heads! Spicy ones!"

"Alright."

After hanging up the phone, Gu Heng picked up his covered teacup, took a sip, and looked at the leisurely street scene of Chengdu, feeling great.
