Reborn Action Star: Starting in Hollywood

Seeing Lin Yuan step forward, Li Xiuman stood up straight with full confidence.

He was not worried at all today because he had made ample preparations, as he had grouped up all nine members of Girls' Generation.

Taeyeon and Yoona were at the front of the line, and the rest were arranged in order.

As for him, of course he stood at the back of the line!
Having learned a painful lesson from the previous experience, he understood one thing:
That means you should never be presumptuous in front of Lin Yuan, or you'll only be embarrassed to death.

He didn't know if Lin Yuan would shake his hand first. What if he stepped forward, but Lin Yuan went to find Taeyeon first?
Hehe, as long as he keeps his distance from Taeyeon and Yoona, he will definitely not misjudge!

Lin Yuan didn't walk towards Taeyeon and Yoona, but instead headed towards the back of the line.

Lee Soo-man was deeply moved: As expected, he still gives me, the boss of SM Entertainment, face!
Lin Yuan extended his right hand: "President Li, welcome to New York."

Lee Soo-man grasped Lin Yuan's right hand with both hands: "Finally, I have another opportunity to receive your instruction in person!"

Lin Yuan: "..."

Is this still the tyrant of the Korean wave?

How did it become a sycophantic and treacherous official?
However, this was just Lin Yuan's internal monologue. In fact, SM Entertainment's performance this year was quite good, but Lee Soo-man firmly implemented Lin Yuan's money-spending strategy.

After spending a lot of money, the company's overall influence was greatly enhanced.

So Lin Yuan patted him on the shoulder: "You did a great job. I've already had the lawyer prepare an incentive plan of 300 million shares of Lin Yuan Film Industry stock for you and your team."

Upon hearing Lin Yuan's words, Lee Soo-man's face flushed with excitement.

This unexpected windfall completely stunned him.

Currently, Lin Yuan Pictures' stock price is around $30, so 300 million shares would be $9000 million!
Such a large equity incentive is going to fall on him and his team?
“Mr. Lin…” Lee Soo-man was so excited he could hardly speak.

Even if he only takes half, he will have achieved financial freedom much earlier.

Lee Soo-man felt incredibly emboldened whenever he thought of his old rivals, such as Yang Hyun-suk from YG Entertainment and Park Jin-young from JYP Entertainment.

You guys are only at the theoretical level of wealth and market value, while I've already cashed out and gotten out of debt.

Moreover, this was only the first reward Lin Yuan gave him, and there would inevitably be more incentives in the future. Li Xiuman felt that the future was infinitely bright.

Girls' Generation, standing to the side, were completely stunned.

That's $9000 million, just given away like that?

Will they be able to earn even a tenth of that amount throughout their entire careers?

Lin Yuan smiled and released Li Xiuman's hand, then began to move.

Standing next to Lee Soo-man, Girls' Generation member Jessica (Jung Soo-yeon) controlled her nervousness and tried her best to extend her hand naturally, waiting for Lim Won to shake her hand.

However, Lin Yuan's gaze was not on her, but instead he quickly passed by her and headed straight for the head of the line.

Jessica was left alone, awkwardly standing there with her hand outstretched...

Jessica blushed and withdrew her hand.

You probably didn't see it, right? It's not shameful if no one saw it!
Lee Soo-man, standing next to her, was practically bursting with laughter inside, but he managed to suppress it.

Haha, I knew Lin Yuan wouldn't play by the rules.

Luckily, I was prepared, otherwise I would be the one in an awkward situation right now.

Lin Yuan walked quickly to Taeyeon and looked at the short figure he hadn't seen in a long time with tender eyes.

Taeyeon wore a pure white short dress today, with the hem slightly flared out, like a blooming lotus flower.

The dress was perfectly tailored, accentuating her slender waist, while the delicate lace trim at the neckline made her skin appear even whiter. She looked clean and beautiful in the sunlight.

She looked up at Lin Yuan, her eyes filled with joy, but she only reached out her hand reservedly, trying her best to maintain her composure.

But Lin Yuan didn't give her a chance to be reserved.

He opened his arms and hugged Taeyeon tightly, his arms encircling her slender waist.

Taeyeon seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then her face burned as if it were on fire.

She gently rested her head against Lin Yuan's chest, her nostrils filled with the scent of her favorite cedar.

But it lasted less than a second before she firmly pushed Lin Yuan away with both hands.

Realizing her shyness, Lin Yuan didn't insist and released his arms from Taeyeon.

"I'm so glad to see you again," Lin Yuan said.

“I’m happy too!” Kim Tae-yeon replied.

The simple conversation was filled with the joy of reunion.

This scene left Hwang Mi-young, who was standing nearby, completely stunned.

Wow! You, Kim Tae-yeon, still say you didn't have anything going on with Lin Yuan?
This hug has gone beyond the bounds of a polite hug, hasn't it?

I can clearly see that your bodies are pressed tightly together!

But the next second, the scene before her eyes made Huang Meiying unsure of her judgment.

Because in front of her, Yoona also opened her arms and hugged Lin Yuan tightly.

Lin Yuan's hands steadily supported Yoona's back, and he even affectionately ruffled her long hair.

Yoona pressed her cheek against his shoulder, her eyes crinkling into crescent moons as she smiled, her slender arms tightly wrapped around his waist.

"This...this is..." Huang Meiying felt her worldview was collapsing.

It's impossible that both of them are having an affair with Lin Yuan, right?

If that's the case, how could the two possibly get along peacefully in the same group?
In fact, Hwang Mi-young knew that Kim Tae-yeon and Im Yoon-ah had a very good relationship, no less so than their relationship with her.

Could it be?

An idea arose in Huang Meiying's mind.

Perhaps this is Lin Yuan's unique way of greeting people?
Although it might seem a bit unseemly for a man to hug every woman so intimately, Huang Meiying felt that it wasn't so bad to accept when she thought about how it was Lin Yuan.

So when Lin Yuan walked up to Huang Meiying with a smile, she also opened her arms.

But Lin Yuan extended his right hand...

Hwang Mi-young: (﹏)
Where is the hole?
I want to crawl inside!
Seeing this, Jessica, who had just been so embarrassed she wanted to scratch her toes, suddenly felt saved.

Meanwhile, Lee Soo-man, who was in the distance, was barely suppressing his laughter; he was practically bursting with rage.

Huang Meiying had no idea how she shook hands with Lin Yuan, nor what Lin Yuan said to her. She was in a state of extreme shame and social humiliation.

How can I hold my head high among the group members after this?

Fortunately, Kim Tae-yeon noticed her roommate's embarrassment, smiled, and hugged her, whispering in her ear, "It's okay, it's not embarrassing. Last time, President Lee was even more embarrassed than you!"

"Really?"

"Yeah! Last time, President Lee Soo-man opened his arms, thinking that Lin Yuan would hug him, but Lin Yuan only reached out his hand."

Hwang Mi-young: (一`一;)
So it turns out I wasn't the only one; everyone was a clown?
He felt much better now. At this moment, Lin Yuan had already shaken hands and greeted each of the Girls' Generation members.

He smiled and said, "Since everyone has come from afar, let's go back and rest first, and then talk about work."

"Oppa, am I staying at your house again this time?" Yoona asked, raising her hand.

The Girls' Generation members all perked up their ears; this sentence was incredibly informative!

Is "Oppa" something you can just call anyone?

When did she stay at Lin Yuan's house?

Lee Soo-man issued a gag order after Taeyeon and Yoona came to New York last time.

After all, Lee Boo-jin's initial intention in bringing the two girls was not pure. In order to prevent the other members of the group from overthinking, Lee Soo-man chose to keep the information confidential.

Therefore, the members of Girls' Generation only knew that Lee Soo-man had brought two people to Lim Won's Star Avenue awarding ceremony, but unfortunately they were attacked.

Taeyeon was almost killed in the explosion, but she unexpectedly became known to many people around the world.

Although she hasn't debuted yet, she has already gained countless fans all over the world, and her popularity is even higher than that of the company's top female artist, BoA!

Under the curious gazes of the Girls' Generation members, Lin Yuan nodded and said, "Okay, you and Taeyeon will stay in the same room as last time. I've made arrangements for the rest of the people. Let's go!"

"Wow! We can stay at Lin Yuan's mansion? I thought it would be great if they could arrange for us to stay in a five-star hotel!"

"So, when Taeyeon and Yoona came to New York last time, they stayed at Lin Yuan's house?"

"What is the home of the world's richest person like? Is it one of those European-style castles?"

The members of Girls' Generation could no longer contain their curiosity and began to discuss it amongst themselves.

Kim Tae-yeon and Im Yoon-ah, who were at the center of the discussion, felt a strange sense of pleasure.

Why do we feel happy?
Is it vanity at play?
Is this the joy of female competition?

Kim Tae-yeon and Im Yoon-ah had no answer, but they vaguely knew that this was not a good thing.

So Yoona suppressed her instincts and said with a smile, "Unnies, let's go. You'll see when we get there."

"Don't worry, Lin Yuan's arrangements are all in place," Kim Tae-yeon reassured them.

The nine members of Girls' Generation, along with Lee Soo-man, followed Lim Won into the Lincoln sedan in the middle.

With GAKKI-chan added, the number of passengers on this train has reached 12.

Although it's not as spacious as before, there's still a fair amount of space between people, so they're not crammed together.

As soon as they got into the car, the members of Girls' Generation were stunned by the luxurious interior.

They whispered among themselves, and seeing this scene, Yoona and Taeyeon felt as if yesterday were repeating itself.

At this moment, GAKKI whispered in Lin Yuan's ear, "I'm going to pour them drinks. Who do you want me to fail with today?"

Lin Yuan tapped her head helplessly and whispered, "Don't cause any more trouble. If you bring in a few more women, I won't have time to deal with them."

He didn't mention lack of energy because that's simply not the case.

"Really? I think Hwang Mi-young's legs are so beautiful. Aren't you a leg fetishist?"

Jessica on the right is as cute as a doll!

And then there's Kwon Yuri on the left. Although her skin is a bit dark, she has a voluptuous and full figure, which is very pleasing to the eye.

"Especially Sunny, her breasts are a bit exaggerated, did she steal all the nutrients during puberty?" GAKKI continued.

Lin Yuan could only shake his head and say, "I'm not interested in any of them. If it were Jessica's sister, I might consider it."

Upon hearing Lin Yuan's answer, GAKKI-chan made a disgusted expression and took a step back: "Jessica isn't even that old, and you're already interested in her younger sister? Isn't that a bit perverted?"

Lin Yuan sighed helplessly. Sure enough, his little assistant couldn't understand this joke.

Jessica is certainly wonderful, but her younger sister, Krystal Jung, is the real treasure, known as the "cool princess," and enjoys immense popularity.

In later Korean entertainment novels on Qidian.com, Kim Tae-yeon can be said to be the female lead for a long time, so her younger sister Kim Ha-yeon is called "the Korean entertainment sister-in-law".

Krystal Jung is also a leading lady with a very high frequency of appearances, which makes her sister Jessica known as the "sister-in-law of K-pop".

In short, it's as prestigious as Liu Xiaoli being called the "Mother-in-Law of Chinese Entertainment."

Seeing that Lin Yuan really had no idea, GAKKI-chan didn't say anything more and took out a drink and a glass from the car refrigerator.

When GAKKI handed the glasses to Kim Tae-yeon and Im Yoon-ah, they were clearly quite nervous.

The memory of the "accident" where I spilled apple sparkling water all over myself is still fresh in my mind, so how can I remain calm?

This also made the other members of Girls' Generation quite curious. It's just a drink, right?

Why are you acting like you're facing a formidable enemy?

However, this time there were no surprises, and GAKKI poured drinks for everyone without any problems.

This relieved Kim Tae-yeon and Im Yoon-ah, meaning that at least no other group members would join their mess.

If the entire group really does have a special relationship with Lin Yuan, they really don't know how to get along.

"Let me briefly tell you about the itinerary."

As soon as Lin Yuan spoke, the car fell silent; clearly, no one dared to misbehave in front of him.

"Don't be so tense, relax," Lin Yuan said with a smile.

"It's 2 p.m. now. After you arrive at your accommodation, you can rest in your room and adjust to the time difference."

I've prepared a welcome dinner for you all at 6 p.m.

After dinner, I arranged to watch a preview of Mad Max: Fury Road…”

Upon hearing this, the Girls' Generation members inside the car couldn't contain themselves and all asked:
Wow! A new movie that hasn't been released yet! I can't wait!

"I was really looking forward to dinner, but now I just want to finish eating as soon as possible so I can see the movie."

"Lin Yuan Oppa! Mad Max: Fury Road hasn't been released yet, right? Isn't there a risk of leaking information if we see it now?"

Faced with the girls' barrage of questions, Lin Yuan continued:
"Let me finish speaking first, and you will naturally have the answers to many of your questions."

"Because it hasn't been officially released yet, what we're showing you is a preliminary edited sample."

As long as you don't film it, and don't post it online or tell your friends about the plot, there won't be a problem.

"I believe you are all well-behaved and sensible children," Lin Yuan said with a smile.

He wasn't worried about leaks. On one hand, the members of Girls' Generation had proven their character over time and were completely trustworthy. On the other hand, Lin Yuan knew that even if he didn't say anything, Lee Soo-man would take care of keeping quiet.

In that case, he only needs to be a good person.

"You are all singers of the theme song. If you haven't seen the movie and don't have the images and plot in your minds, how could you possibly perform this song well?"

After you watch the film tonight, I'll take you to Taylor's music studio tomorrow to officially begin recording the theme song. (End of Chapter)
