Reborn in the Chinese Entertainment Industry: You're a Director, But You're a Casanova?

Niu Yuehua borrowed two bodyguards from Boss Wang and drove to the budget hotel where Director Zhang and Producer Li's casting team were staying.

There were several pretty girls waiting in line for auditions outside the room. The bodyguard kicked open the door and rushed in.

Inside the room, Director Zhang was holding a girl's hand, reading her palm as he touched it, and saying:

"If you want to join Director Zhang's crew, being pretty isn't enough. Come to my room tonight, and I'll test your acting skills."

Niu Yuehua went inside, waved for his bodyguards to kick the girl out, and then locked the door.

"Director Zhang is in high spirits."

"After running to Boss Wang to badmouth me, you turn around and come here to hold a concubine selection?"

Director Zhang and Producer Li were initially flustered when they saw Niu Yuehua, but when they realized there were only three of them, they instantly became arrogant again.

Director Zhang smiled and crossed his legs.

"Niu Yuehua, you think you're something special just because of that lousy short film?"

"Let me tell you! No one as arrogant as you will be allowed to exist in the capital!"

"Zhang Jizhong is my uncle! If you dare lay a finger on me, my uncle will make sure you never get investment or pass censorship in the mainland film and television industry again!"

Niu Yuehua ignored him and activated his Qi Observation Technique and Desire Amplification.

Although the Qi Observation Technique can only see the emotions above a person's head, he could see a faint gray aura representing fear and guilt in the arrogant red aura above Director Zhang's head.

Niu Yuehua thought of a joke: A man went to wipe out his enemy's entire family, then strapped the enemy with a rope... wherever he went, the rope would tighten, and upon searching, they found that there were indeed more people hiding there...

So Niu Yuehua remained silent and paced slowly around the room.

When I got to the bedside, the gray mist didn't react.

When I walked to the wardrobe, the dust didn't react.

As Director Zhang walked to a drawer next to the desk, his eyes involuntarily glanced over. At the same time, the faint gray aura above his head instantly expanded, overwhelming the arrogant red aura.

Niu Yuehua stopped in front of the drawer, turned around and smiled slightly at Director Zhang.

"It seems that Director Zhang's secrets are all in this drawer."

Director Zhang's face changed, and he shouted, "What are you doing?! That's a confidential production secret! I'm going to sue you!"

The bodyguard, quite perceptive, slapped Director Zhang across the face. Niu Yuehua nodded approvingly, then lifted his chair, smashed the lock on the drawer, and pulled out a black leather notebook and a stack of contracts.

Niu Yuehua flipped through the notebook and looked at it. "You're something else. You collected registration fees from hundreds of girls, and even signed promises to sleep with them and exchange roles."

"I'm not trying to be mean, but how the hell could you make this kind of thing public?"

"Director Zhang, tell me, if this ledger and these letters of commitment were sent to your Uncle Zhang, who's currently overwhelmed with casting preparations, would he protect you, his supposed nephew, or would he immediately turn against you, call the police, and have you arrested to quell the scandal?"

With a thud, Director Zhang's legs went weak, and the sliding track fell in front of Niu Yuehua.

"Master Niu! Ancestor! Name your price, I'll pay any amount!"

Niu Yuehua tucked the ledgers and contracts into his pocket: "I still prefer your arrogant self from earlier. Try to calm down."

Director Zhang was stunned, not understanding what this meant. Seeing this, Niu Yuehua said helplessly:

"I don't lack money, and your money is too dirty."

"I need you to do something for me."

"First, regardless of whether you are actually my nephew or not, or even if we are only remotely related, through all the auditions, I directly put the costume photos of my artist Liu Yifei into Zhang Jizhong's final selection list and recommended her to play Wang Yuyan."

"Uncle Niu, this is a bit tricky..."

"Difficult to handle? Then let's not do it."

Niu Yuehua kicked the desk away, leaving the two swindlers and their two bodyguards dumbfounded. What kind of strength was that?

"I'll definitely do it! I'll definitely do it!" Director Zhang nodded vigorously, sweating profusely.

"Oh, right, there's one more thing." Niu Yuehua kicked Producer Li, who was hiding to the side pretending not to see him.

"You're here swindling people, do you even have any temporary workers from the film crew working for you?"

Producer Li nodded tremblingly: "There are cameramen and lighting technicians, all hired thugs for fifty-one days."

"You're no good for a hoodlum; you can't even turn on a computer."

"Here's what we'll do: go to the Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils film crew and borrow a few people, bring the equipment, and come to this location tomorrow."

"Uncle Niu, no, my uncle will kill me!"

"Then you can pay to hire one for me. Filming hasn't started yet, so I might as well just sit around doing nothing."

"Tell them that Director Zhang will cover all their wages for this period. Anyone who dares to be late..."

"Director Zhang, you wouldn't want your uncle to find out about your accounts and contracts, would you?"

Director Zhang and Producer Li were almost in tears.

Not only do we have to find ways to give favors to our relatives, but we also have to spend money to recruit people for this film crew?

What kind of vampire is this?!

……

Back in his studio, Niu Yuehua threw his spoils on the table and casually announced that he had gotten a film crew for free.

Liu Xiaoli looked at Niu Yuehua as if he were a god!

This is the highly anticipated and top-tier production team of "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils"!

Other girls would fight tooth and nail to get in, and might even have to pay a price, but Yuehua managed to get the lead role without spending a single penny, all by ganging up on Qianqian!

Just as Liu Yifei and Liu Xiaoli were starry-eyed, Tang Yan, who was standing to the side, rolled her eyes.

She remembered Liu Xiaoli's wary warning to her the night before.

Liu Xiaoli: ? Like a dog biting Lü Dongbin.

She knew she had to showcase her body... no, her commercial value...

And we need to get this troublesome woman out of the way!

Tang Yan stepped forward, wearing an affected expression that seemed to be entirely concerned about the company and her girlfriends:

"Director Niu, Aunt Liu, something just occurred to me!"

"Wang Yuyan's mother in 'Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils,' Madam Wang of Mantuo Manor, was also an absolute beauty!"

"Our Aunt Liu's figure and her poise completely outshine the female celebrities on TV these days!"

Tang Yan clapped her hands excitedly: "Now that we have Zhang Jizhong's connections, why don't we let Aunt Liu and Qianqian join the crew together?"

"A mother and daughter playing mother and daughter—that's a huge gimmick! Zhang Da Huzi would definitely be interested!"

Upon hearing this, the entire room fell silent...

Niu Yuehua gave Tang Yan a meaningful look; he knew all too well what this low-level green tea was thinking.

By sending Liu Xiaoli and Liu Yifei to the TV series crew for several months, Tang Yan can have some alone time with herself there, taking advantage of her proximity!

Excluding Tong Yao and Liu Shishi who are too young, she is the only one who has a chance to make it to base!

However, Niu Yuehua was not at all averse to it; on the contrary, he appreciated it.

That's right, these are the employees I should have. Only through healthy competition can I reap the benefits.

Finally, this naive and innocent girl has learned to use her brain to climb the social ladder. It seems that palace intrigue is a natural talent, she's self-taught.

Liu Xiaoli turned her head and stared at Tang Yan's innocent face. How could she not see through this little girl's trick of luring the tiger away from the mountain?

She glanced at her bewildered daughter beside her, and sighed...

Zhang Jizhong's film crew is so big and complicated, she's worried about leaving Qianqian alone. If she could have the opportunity to be by her side to protect her, that would be the best!

Even if we have to let Tang Yan, that fly, have a bite of Niu Yuehua first, it's still worth it!

Liu Xiaoli gritted her teeth and gave an elegant smile:

"Xiao Tang is right. If possible, I'd like to accompany Qianqian to the film set."
