Huayu: I was immediately ensnared by Jing Tian as soon as I entered the industry.

The Berlin Film Festival has officially come to a close.

The next morning, Ge You, Li Xuejian, and others said goodbye and boarded a plane back to China with honor.

The copyright transaction for "The Hunt" hasn't been completed yet, so Wang Xuan has to stay and talk to the various film companies.

This film won two Silver Bear Awards and has no political overtones, so it can be shown in any region without any problem.

Only four film companies participated this time, and they were the largest copyright holders.

While complaining that he hadn't made any money with "Buried," Harvey went on to acquire the rights to all regions except Europe and Asia with his deep pockets.

This left everyone else completely bewildered.

After a morning of negotiations, all the details were settled, the employees were brought in to draft the contract, and all parties signed to confirm it.

After buying a plane ticket back to China that evening, Wang Xuan ate something casually at the hotel cafeteria so he wouldn't have to adjust to the time difference upon landing.

"Wang Xuan, how did the copyright transaction go?"

"The deal is done. We've sold to all regions, both domestically and internationally, for a total of US$2350 million."

Wang Xuan clearly heard the gasp on the other end of the phone.

Lapekang laughed excitedly, "Great! We'll be waiting for you to return to China and for you to hold a celebration banquet."

...

Berlin Tegel Airport.

Wang Xuan boarded a plane back to China, but his assistant and two employees did not go with him; they had other matters to attend to.

His collaboration with the fat man involved weighing the options between commercial and art films, ultimately choosing the art film.

As for the reason, it was, of course, to take advantage of the fact that the fat man had not yet been exposed and use his influence to impact the Oscars.

As for the script, Wang Xuan didn't consider adapting it this time, opting instead for a biographical story.

The reason is simple: Obama has just taken office, and as the first black president of the United States, he is bound to promote political correctness.

Seven hours later, the plane landed at Beijing Capital International Airport.

The weather was a bit cold during the Spring Festival, and even the air was biting cold, so Wang Xuan put on a mask.

He didn't rush to leave the airport because there were definitely a lot of reporters waiting outside.

I checked the flights to Zhengzhou and I'm lucky. There's one flight that takes off in two hours and there are still seats available.

After buying his plane ticket, Wang Xuan sat in the lobby browsing news online.

New Pictures held a press conference to announce Zhang Yimou's new film.

This is the first film since the Olympics, so the level of attention it has garnered is understandable.

"The new play is adapted from the foreign classic 'Blood Simple.' The male lead has been confirmed and will be played by Xiao Shenyang, who shone on the Spring Festival Gala, and members of Zhao Benshan's troupe."

When Wang Xuan saw this news, he already felt sorry for Zhang Yimou. He should have been sitting firmly on his pedestal, but this movie brought him down to earth.

Among this year's freshmen at Beijing Film Academy, some have already been dubbed the new generation of campus beauties and are known as "Little Zhou Xun".

The suicide rate among South Korean female celebrities is rather high.

There were three reported cases last year, and now, in February, there's another suicide.

The leaked suicide note mentioned that he was forced by his agency to sleep with political and business figures, numbering as many as 30 people a year.

Wang Xuan checked the time; it was time to go through security and board the plane. Before boarding, he sent a message.

···

"Cut, take a ten-minute break, we'll do another take later," Liu Xingang said with a helpless expression.

From the morning onwards, the young lady had been looking rather silly, clearly not focused on the performance.

He didn't dare say a harsh word, let alone curse.

I plan to film other people's scenes later, let the young lady have her fun first, and then we'll talk about it.

Anyway, there's no rush. If the budget is overrun, just ask for more.

"Tian Tian, ​​the director can't film you like this."

"Sister Shanshan, what was the most precious gift you received when you had your first relationship?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Shanshan got up and left.

Who can compare to the young lady?

People give cars and houses as gifts; these are things that money can buy.

Wang Xuan, on the other hand, directly presented her with a Silver Bear Award and even confessed his feelings in front of the world's media.

He certainly enjoyed pretending.

The young lady was happy all day long.

This situation is expected to continue for some time.

"Hey, Sister Shanshan, don't go! Let's chat."

Watching Zhao Shanshan walk away, Jing Tian pouted, "So stingy, can't even have a chat."

As she spoke, she took out her phone, hesitating whether to send a text message to ask.

Was that Silver Bear trophy a gift to her?

Just as she was hesitating, she received a text message from Wang Xuan, and Jing Tian jumped up immediately.

"Xiao Li, bring the car over here."

"Sister Tian Tian, ​​the crew over here..."

"Tell the director you need to take leave, and say you have something extremely important to do."

Jing Tian got into the driver's seat, shifted gears, and sped out of the film set, completely ignoring her assistant's shouts from behind.

At this moment, all she wanted was to see the man who had confessed his feelings for her in front of the world's media cameras as soon as possible.

···

Jing Tian checked online and found that it takes 2 hours to fly from the capital to Zhengzhou. For the first time, she felt that the time was so long.

She sat in the car, glancing at her phone every now and then to check flight information.

Time seemed to pass slowly; she waited for a very long time.

Hearing the airport announcement, Jing Tian got out of the car and stood at the arrivals gate.

Before long, crowds poured out of the exit.

Jing Tian's eyes searched, and with an inexplicable intuition, she locked onto the figure at a glance.

Dressed casually and wearing sunglasses, his tall and upright figure stood out from the crowd, making him incredibly eye-catching.

Wang Xuan's gaze was also fixed on her; some people can be spotted at a glance even in a crowd.

Their eyes met, and smiles bloomed on their faces at the same time.

Wang Xuan waved to Jing Tian, ​​and the young lady smiled, but her eyes reddened. Ignoring the stares of those around her, she threw herself into Wang Xuan's arms.

The young lady's pent-up emotions and feelings erupted the moment she saw Wang Xuan.

Wang Xuan tightened his embrace around the woman and whispered teasingly in her ear:

"How old are you to still be crying? So many people are watching."

"Hmph, I don't care."

Jing Tian looked up, staring intently into Wang Xuan's eyes, and asked seriously, "Wang Xuan, will you always be good to me?"

"Yes, I always will." Wang Xuan nodded earnestly.

The young lady, who had just been teary-eyed, stretched out her fair arm and said with righteous indignation:

"My gift? I watched the whole awards ceremony."

"Ah~ I didn't say it was for you." Wang Xuan teased the young lady in a cheeky manner.

"Wang Xuan, get this straight. If you're not going to give it to me, who are you going to give it to?"

With her eyes still slightly red, she glared at him, her cheeks puffed out in anger.

"Don't do anything, of course it's yours. Let's look at it somewhere else."

Wang Xuan gripped the soft hand around his waist and walked towards the airport exit.

Not far away, two paparazzi, all bundled up, were acting suspiciously, their eyes gleaming with excitement.

"Brother Zhuo, this is big news! It's absolutely exclusive!"

Zhuo Wei instructed, "We need to keep a close eye on this big fish."

···

In the hotel where the crew of "The Great Art of War" stayed, in the penthouse suite where Jing Tian was staying, there was a silver bear with its claws outstretched on the coffee table.

The young lady was proudly showing Zhao Shanshan, her assistant, and other team members that the item now belonged to her.

Looking at the young lady who was showing off, Wang Xuan's eyes were full of doting.

"Hey, Sister Shan, you can look, but why do you want to touch it?"

Jing Tian hugged the trophy tightly in her arms like a protective mother.

"How stingy." Seeing the young lady so possessive of her food, Zhao Shanshan reluctantly lowered her hand.

"Sister Tian Tian, ​​quickly check the news online! The photos of you meeting Director Wang have been leaked."

The assistant suddenly spoke up from the side.
