Entertainment News: Follow Wang Baoqiang's Rise to Film Emperor

"This guy...he really can't hold his liquor!"

"You can't even hold your liquor, yet you want to play drinking games with me..."

Seeing that Wang Baoqiang had already drunkenly fallen asleep after slurring his words, and that there was still more than half a bottle of Erguotou left on the table for him to enjoy, Lin Zhi couldn't help but shake his head with amusement.

Then...

He picked up a bottle of Baoji beer from the coffee table, bit off the cap with his teeth, and then gulped down a few mouthfuls.

Although he doesn't drink much on a daily basis, children from rural areas are exposed to alcohol from a young age, and their parents and elders encourage them to drink. So his alcohol tolerance is actually okay; at least, he can drink half a jin or eight liang of baijiu without getting drunk.

He gulped down several mouthfuls of ice-cold beer, the icy sensation seemingly traveling down his esophagus to his heart. Stimulated by this, Lin Zhi suddenly seemed to become a little more sober.

After that, he was all alone, and he was too lazy to drink anymore.

I got up and tidied up the messy coffee table, swept the scattered roast duck bones into the trash can, and put the half-eaten roast duck and some braised vegetables into the refrigerator to keep them fresh so we could eat them again tomorrow...

After finishing all this, Lin Zhi looked at Wang Baoqiang, who was lying on the sofa, fast asleep and snoring softly. He put his hands on his hips and thought for a moment, but still didn't drag her into the room.

Since it's already May and the weather is gradually warming up, Lin Zhi figured that if he just left it on the living room sofa overnight, it wouldn't catch a cold, so he didn't bother with it.

However, before turning off the lights, Lin Zhi went into the room and took a thick blanket, which he then covered the unconscious Wang Baoqiang with...

After a quick wash, Lin Zhi went to his bedroom to sleep.

the next day.

Lin Zhi didn't wake up until noon.

"Lin Zhi, it's getting late. Remember what I told you last night?"

"Hurry up and get ready, put on your best outfit, we're going to the big boss's dinner party..."

"Whether we can take off or not depends on today!!"

At this moment, Wang Baoqiang, who was still hungover, got up early and was on the balcony kicking a sandbag to practice and strengthen his kung fu. When he saw Lin Zhi wake up, he immediately shouted loudly.

"Alright..."

"I'm going to wash my face and brush my teeth first!"

"Wait for me a moment."

Lin Zhiwei pondered for a moment, then nodded.

After thinking it over all night, he decided to follow Wang Baoqiang's advice and take the script for "Crazy Stone" with him to the dinner party hosted by that bigwig in the industry today, to give it one last try.

It would be even better if we could take this opportunity to promote the script for "Stone".

If you can't sell it and you run into a wall!

Well... it's nothing really!

Anyway, he didn't put in anything; he just wasted a little bit of time.

That's how men should strive for their careers. No matter how difficult the road ahead, how many setbacks or frustrations they encounter, they should never give up on themselves. They should try again as soon as there is even the slightest opportunity...

What if it succeeds?

If a person has no dreams, what's the difference between them and a salted fish?

Lin Zhi is a man of strong character, not much less so than Wang Baoqiang, so yesterday's minor setbacks and blows did not diminish his sharp edges and spirit.

He remains a daring and fearless fighter!

He's still that sunny, energetic young man, full of confidence and hope for himself and for the script!

therefore……

After lying down in bed last night, he had already made up his mind...

Today, no matter what, I'll try one last, last, last time...

If he fails again and no big shot is interested in his script, then he'll have to make other plans!

but……

What if it succeeds?

Wouldn't that mean we've embarked on a smooth and prosperous path?

With this beautiful vision in mind, Lin Zhi went to the bathroom, quickly washed up, and then, without even eating breakfast, changed into his most presentable and neat clothes before going out with Wang Baoqiang and taking a taxi to a high-end restaurant in Chaoyang District.

However, they got into the wrong taxi. The driver was a complete sly scoundrel, not honest at all. In order to make money, he deliberately took the two of them on a huge detour on the Second Ring Expressway. When Lin Zhi realized that they had taken a long detour and that the taxi's route was not right, he got into a big argument with the greasy and cunning taxi driver...

If it weren't for the good-natured Wang Baoqiang stopping him, the hot-tempered Lin Zhi would have wanted to give that lousy taxi driver a good beating to teach him a lesson.

After this delay, the two finally arrived in Chaoyang District at around 2 p.m.

Because the two were unfamiliar with the surroundings of the upscale restaurant where they were having dinner, even after taking a taxi to the vicinity of the restaurant, they wasted several tens of minutes trying to find the entrance. By the time they finally stepped into the restaurant, it was almost 3:30 in the afternoon.

By this time, the bigwig's dinner party had probably already started a little while ago; the two of them were way late...

Upon seeing this, Lin Zhi and Wang Baoqiang both fell silent for a moment.

The two, who were usually optimistic, were both speechless.

Finally, they took the elevator to the fourth floor of the restaurant. Following the directions of the waiter, the two entered the private room where the big shots were having their dinner. Lin Zhi touched the script of "Crazy Stone" that he was carrying and sighed inwardly. Today was a bad start. With this kind of luck... he was probably doomed!

Wang Baoqiang seemed to sense that her friend Lin Zhi was a little discouraged. Before the waiter helped push open the door to the private room where the big shots were having their dinner and invited the two of them in, she warmly and considerately reached out and squeezed Lin Zhi's arm, as if encouraging him not to be discouraged and to cheer up, as there was still hope for the future.

A wry smile appeared on Lin Zhi's lips, and then he nodded slightly to Wang Baoqiang.

The two then strode into the private room where the bigwigs were having their private dinner...

Inside the spacious private room, more than a dozen celebrities were sitting around a round marble table, chatting and eating.

After Lin Zhi and Wang Baoqiang walked in, he took a deep breath, quickly glanced around, and realized that he recognized most of the big names in the industry in the private room.

It features Wang Zhonglei, one of the owners of Huayi Brothers, Ma Yun, who later became the richest man in China and founded Alibaba, as well as well-known directors such as Feng Xiaogang, Guan Hu, and Xu Ke, and famous actors such as Ge You, Huang Xiaoming, Huang Lei, Zhang Guoli, and Li Bingbin. There are also some big-name producers in the industry that Lin Zhi recognizes but can't remember by name...

In short, the dinner party in front of us has indeed brought together many big names in the entertainment industry!

The specifications are quite high!

Lin Zhi and Wang Baoqiang were lucky enough to attend this high-level private dinner, thanks to their connection with Director Feng.

If it weren't for Feng Xiaogang's help, given their current insignificant and unknown status in the entertainment industry, they wouldn't even be able to dream of having a dinner like this!

Therefore, relationships are especially important in the entertainment industry.

"Hey, Baoqiang, why are you so late? Did you get stuck in traffic? Come on over..." Feng Xiaogang was sitting near the door of the private room. When he saw Wang Baoqiang and Lin Zhi arrive, he immediately stood up and waved to Wang Baoqiang.

He then smiled and introduced the young man to the many bigwigs in the industry in the private room: "Gentlemen, let me introduce you. This young man is Wang Baoqiang. He is my savior, Feng Xiaogang. In the future, please take good care of him for my sake. I, Feng Xiaogang, will be eternally grateful..."

After saying that, he pulled Wang Baoqiang down to sit next to him.

Seeing that no one was greeting him, Lin Zhi felt no awkwardness and sat down with Wang Baoqiang.

Right next to him is Huang Xiaoming, who still looks very young...
