Reborn Action Star: Starting in Hollywood

Chapter 724 The Relationship Takes Another Step Forward

Who could imagine that the stock price of the world's most valuable listed company would fluctuate wildly during a live television broadcast? This is an extremely rare sight in the capital market.

Historically, there have been numerous instances where a news report broadcast on television has caused dramatic fluctuations in the stock market.

However, in Lin Yuan's case, no one knows how the incident will develop. The real-time stock price fluctuations as the live broadcast progresses are indeed very rare.

Lin Yuan couldn't help but sigh: This is yet another battle between retail investors and institutional investors.

Actually, it wasn't long before the last time. That time, he entered the Karonos Cave to rescue Meng Tao, which caused the stock price to fluctuate wildly.

The retail investors who supported him that time defeated the institutional investors and reaped huge profits.

This time, however, his shareholders lost everything.

Lin Yuan sighed and asked, "What's the public opinion like online? With such a large loss, there must be a lot of complaints, right?"

After all, Lin Yuan could completely understand why his supporters would complain about such a significant loss.

Betty shook her head: "No, the voices on the internet are very consistent. When people expressed their support for you, they didn't want to get their money back. No matter how low the stock price drops, they will hold on tight and not sell."

Even if…"

“Even if something really happens to you, everyone can hold onto these stocks as a memento.” Betty paused for a moment, then continued.

Taylor Swift sighed, "I'm so envious. I don't have fans like that. Most of my fans are there because I'm good-looking, and the rest are there because they like my songs."

GAKKI-chan, Annie, and Charlize all nodded in agreement. Apart from Betty, everyone present was a former entertainer, and they genuinely envied Lin Yuan for having such devoted fans.

But they also know that Lin Yuan fully deserves the love and affection of his fans.

If any celebrity could achieve even one-tenth of Lin Yuan's level, they would be followed by countless fans.

"I won't let them down. I'll issue an announcement in a bit, informing them that a press conference will be held in four days," Lin Yuan said.

He believes that as soon as the announcement is released, it will immediately give Lin Yuan Film Industry's stock price a strong boost.

While it may not immediately cause the company's stock price to return to its original level, it can at least stabilize it and prevent it from falling further.

When he officially appears at the press conference four days later, all the worries will be dispelled.

At that time, Lin Yuan Film Industry's stock price will inevitably return to its original level, or even reach a new historical high.

Fans who bought Lin Yuan Film Industry stock in the past two days are sure to make a fortune; this is the best reward Lin Yuan can give to their support.

As for those large institutions that sold off their holdings at a loss, Lin Yuan could only apologize.

You make the most rational decisions, but you can only bear the most irrational consequences.

"Four days? Is four days enough?" Betty asked. "We can't push ourselves now."

Lin Yuan nodded: "Absolutely enough!"

Lin Yuan understood Betty's meaning. He not only wanted to appear in public, but also to reassure the public and his investors. Therefore, if he was in a bad state, it would be better not to show up.

His decision to hold the press conference four days later was already very conservative.

After his constitution reached 30 points, the activated "superhuman constitution" trait granted him 20 times the healing ability.

Four days is actually equivalent to the healing effect of 80 days for an average person.

Adding the time from yesterday to today, the total has exceeded 100 days.

In terms of skin healing, third-degree burns generally take 60 days, but he doesn't need the time-consuming skin grafting and reconstruction surgery.

Therefore, if you only consider that everything looks fine on the outside, you don't even need to wait 4 days.

Lin Yuan hopes to appear in front of the public in good condition, not only to reassure all those who support and care about him, but also to give those bigwigs who are weighing his value a sense of security.

By then, his bones should have fully healed, just as the saying goes, "it takes 100 days to recover from a bone injury."

"By then, I should have fully recovered," Lin Yuan said confidently.

"Your physical condition is truly abnormal. If it weren't for your current status and position, you'd probably be taken to a lab as a guinea pig," Betty exclaimed.

"I won't be that flashy, going on stage with bandages on," Lin Yuan said with a smile.

"It's good to know."

"Once I announce my plans for a new movie, people's attention will shift away from my body."

Lin Yuan knew that when he was able to appear at the press conference with ease, even if his movements still looked a little unsteady, as long as he announced the new action movie plan, the public would immediately believe that he had not suffered any aftereffects.

After all, how can you make action movies if your body is damaged?
The new film project is undoubtedly the biggest positive factor, capable of silencing all doubts.

Betty nodded: "I'll go arrange it right away."

……

……

Morning light streamed obliquely into the room through the gauze curtains; it was the third day since Lin Yuan was injured.

He was lying on his back on the hospital bed covered with white sheets. The bandages on his body had been removed, and his smooth skin showed no burn scars. Only the newly grown skin was slightly red, making it look a little unnatural.

"Your massage technique is excellent and very helpful for rehabilitation. Thank you for your help today," Lin Yuan said with a smile.

GAKKI, sitting next to her, didn't immediately start massaging you. Instead, she asked, "Kim Tae-yeon just asked me if she could give you a massage. She said she learned massage techniques from the nurses."

GAKKI paused for a moment, then added, "Ever since she heard you were going to hold a press conference, she's been asking me about your health. I'm about to lose it."

Lin Yuan: "..."

This is indeed a problem. If Kim Tae-yeon finds out the truth, it means she will know about Lin Yuan's incredible speed of recovery, which is one of his biggest secrets.

If Yoona knew that she had already recovered most of her health, she would most likely think that she wasn't seriously injured in the explosion, which is why she recovered so quickly.

However, Lin Yuan's injuries could not be hidden from Kim Tae-yeon, who was also a survivor.

She had personally experienced the impact of the explosion and witnessed firsthand how horrific Lin Yuan's injuries were.

Right now, even before Kim Tae-yeon's injuries have fully healed, he is already almost completely recovered.

Being seen by Kim Tae-yeon is no different from directly revealing the secret.

Therefore, GAKKI-chan posed this question to Lin Yuan, letting him decide for himself what to do.

“If we don’t let her come…” Lin Yuan shook his head: “She’ll probably hide in her room and cry. Oh well, let her come.”

GAKKI-chan smiled and nodded: "I knew this would happen, it was bound to happen sooner or later."

By agreeing to share this secret with Kim Tae-yeon, Lin Yuan was essentially admitting that he considered her one of his own.

But Kim Tae-yeon certainly has the qualifications. Whether it was her close contact with Lin Yuan at his residence and on his private jet a few days ago, or her selfless act during the bombing incident, it all proves that she is absolutely worthy of Lin Yuan's trust.

"Then I'll take a break today. She'll wait at the door, and I'll call her in." GAKKI clapped her hands and walked towards the door.

Less than five seconds later, Kim Tae-yeon, whose head was still bandaged, walked into the ward.

She stood there stunned in the doorway, her gaze fixed on Lin Yuan's bare upper body:
Those gruesome burns and fractures have now mostly healed, leaving only a few patches of pale pink new skin, like scars that have been quickly smoothed over by time.

Kim Tae-yeon's eyes widened, and she instinctively covered her mouth, her voice choking in her throat: "You...your body..."

"Shh!" Lin Yuan put his index finger to his lips. "It's a secret. You don't want to see me being used as a guinea pig for research, do you?" Taeyeon's gaze swept over his skin, from his shoulder blades to his ribs, and then to his arms—those injuries that would normally take months to heal seemed to have been smoothed out by some mysterious force.

Her heart raced, and her fingers unconsciously gripped the door frame.

"You..." She finally found her voice, but didn't know what to say.

Shock, confusion, and even a sense of absurdity intertwined in her mind.

Seeing her stunned expression, Lin Yuan couldn't help but chuckle: "Scared?"

Taeyeon took a deep breath, stepped into the ward, and closed the door behind her.

Her voice was soft, yet unusually firm: "I won't tell anyone."

Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow: "So straightforward? Aren't you going to ask what happened?"

“If you want to tell me, you will.” She took a few steps closer, her gaze still lingering on his skin.

Kim Tae-yeon's fingertips twitched slightly, as if she wanted to touch and confirm, but she restrained herself: "But no matter what the reason... this is your secret, and I won't let it become someone else's leverage."

Lin Yuan gazed at her, the smile in his eyes gradually settling into a deeper emotion.

He reached out, gently grasped her wrist, and placed her palm against his chest.

This is one of the most severely burned areas from a few days ago, which Kim Tae-yeon witnessed firsthand.

The skin there swelled up with blisters that burst instantly, followed by carbonization, filling the air with the smell of burnt flesh.

At this moment, apart from her light pink new skin, there is no trace of the terrible state she once was.

Beneath Kim Tae-yeon's fingertips, one could feel the smoothness of the muscles beneath her skin, completely free of any scars—the kind of arrangement of excessively proliferating collagen fibers.

All of this proves that Lin Yuan's skin at this moment is not just a superficial patchwork, but a perfect recovery from the inside out.

"Did you feel it?" Lin Yuan asked.

“This… how is this possible…” she murmured.

"This is my little secret: my body's healing ability is slightly stronger than that of ordinary people."

"..."

Is this just a little bit stronger?

Kim Tae-yeon suddenly didn't want to talk to Lin Yuan. "Your injuries look less severe than mine!"
Taeyeon withdrew her hand, remained silent for a few seconds, then suddenly looked up and stared directly at him: "Aren't you afraid I'll betray you?"

Lin Yuan smiled: "Can you?"

"No," she answered without hesitation, even with a hint of annoyance: "You suspect me and then tell me?"

"Because I believe you."

That one short sentence left Kim Tae-yeon speechless.

Her chest heaved slightly, a surge of indescribable excitement welling up inside her.

I gained his trust, and he was willing to share even such a secret with me!
"Idiot," she muttered under her breath, but then laughed out loud. "Don't reveal these kinds of secrets so easily next time. If there are a few more, I'm afraid I won't be able to resist selling you out."

Lin Yuan shook his head indifferently: "As long as you can bear it."

"..."

"Would you like to give me a rehabilitation massage?"

"Do you need a massage?"

"Of course, if you hadn't volunteered, Gakki would be giving me a massage right now. You can't just send her away and then abandon her, can you?"

"You're inhuman. You look better than me."

Despite her complaints, Kim Tae-yeon poured the warm jojoba oil into her palm and rubbed it well, meticulously preparing for the occasion.

Jojoba oil, which contains natural vitamin E, is more easily absorbed by scar tissue than mineral oil.

"Flip over and lie face down!"

Lin Yuan obediently turned over, exposing his muscular back to her.

When Kim Tae-yeon's fingertips touched Lim Won's shoulder blade, she could feel his muscles tense up instantly.

"Start with the superficial second-degree burn area. If you experience significant pain, please let me know immediately."

Her voice was very soft, but her left hand was as steady as a scalpel cutting into the muscle, her thumb making a deep circular pressure along the outside of his right upper arm.

This massage motion helps soften the collagen fibers that have grown excessively after a burn.

She did it very carefully, clearly having learned diligently from the nurses.

Next, she began to use a horizontal pushing and kneading method to massage areas where the skin showed obvious abnormalities, in order to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis.

She deliberately slowed down the pace, allowing Lin Yuan's newly formed skin to gleam with a pearly luster under the nourishment of jojoba oil.

"Next, we need to work on the erector spinae muscles." She gestured for Lin Yuan to turn over and lie face down, then her hands suddenly transformed into flapping swifts, performing a cross-friction massage along the thoracolumbar fascia.

Kim Tae-yeon's movements were meticulous and her attitude was focused.

But Lin Yuan felt it was a bit too formal.

Having gone through life and death together in the past few days, their relationship instantly transcended several levels.

However, no new way of communication had been established yet, so it seemed a bit strange for a while.

Lin Yuan didn't want things to stay like this, so he suddenly asked with a mischievous grin, "Little sister, how old are you?"

Kim Tae-yeon: "!!!"

She paused for a moment, then said shyly, "Big brother, you just turned 18."

Lin Yuan: (ω)
You really handled it well, no wonder you're called "Perverted Yeon"!
Speaking of the "old driver" in Girls' Generation, she is known as "Pervert Yeon" and naturally knows a lot of things that innocent girls shouldn't know.

In his previous life, Lin Yuan knew that she had an exceptional talent for entertainment and could catch any joke.

This kind of joke that is familiar to East Asians is naturally no problem.

So Lin Yuan continued in a teasing tone, "How many years have you been doing this?"

"It's only been a month since I started," Taeyeon said, her tone becoming more seductive and her movements much gentler.

"Really? Your technique is so skillful, you learned it very quickly?"

"Sigh, I'm forced by life. My mother is seriously ill, my father is a gambler and irresponsible, and I have a younger brother in high school."

Lin Yuan: (1`1;)
Wow! It really was you! That answer was... absolutely classic!
"Brother, you look familiar. Did you order me before?"

Lin Yuan: “!!!”

They've actually started to take the lead?!
Wow, you're so good at that! (End of Chapter)
