The entertainment empire began with Liu Yifei's premarital pregnancy.

Besides the four leading actresses, the four leading men who were originally named Hu Ge, Nie Yuan, Yin Xiaotian and Ren Quan at the Star Awards have now become Hu Ge, Nie Yuan, Zhu Yawen and Ren Quan.

Yin Xiaotian's position was directly replaced by Zhu Yawen.

One film, "Love is Not Blind," is enough to earn Zhu Yawen this title.

……

Lin Bufan learned some details about the Starlight Awards from Bai Bing, then picked up his phone and called Yang Mi, who was overseas.

"Yummy, when are you planning to go back to China?"

Lin Bufan asked directly.

"I won't go back yet. Let's talk about it after we finish filming 'Final Destination 2'!"

Yang Mi hesitated for a moment, then shook her head.

"Filming for 'Bleach 2' won't start until January 1st. What have you been doing during that time?"

Lin Bufan frowned slightly, somewhat puzzled.

"I……"

Yang Mi hesitated.

"You must have something on your mind. Tell me, what is it?"

Lin Bufan's tone was somewhat serious.

Based on his understanding of Yang Mi, he knew that her hesitation and stuttering meant she was hiding something from him.

"I'm pregnant, I'm three and a half months along now!"

Yang Mi gritted her teeth and finally told the truth.

"What? You're pregnant?"

Lin Bufan was stunned for a moment, then realized, "No wonder you didn't tell me!"

Yang Mi went to Los Angeles in early October to promote the movie "Death 1". However, during the promotion, Yang Mi felt unwell and went to the hospital for a check-up, only to find out that she was pregnant.

At that moment, Yang Mi was very happy and wanted to tell Lin Bufan the good news as soon as possible.

But as soon as she picked up the phone, she hesitated.

She knew that the success of the first "Death" movie would lead to the filming of the second "Final Destination" movie, and she didn't want to miss out on the series.

If Lin Bufan knew, he would definitely let her return to China to rest and prepare for childbirth.

But she didn't want to do that. She felt it was okay, but she was afraid Lin Bufan would find out, so she delayed returning to China. Every time Lin Bufan called to ask, she would say that she was traveling in the United States and Europe and would be traveling abroad for a while.

She was thinking of going back after filming the second Final Destination movie.

"Yang Mi, you've really gotten bold!"

Lin Bufan snorted coldly: "You actually kept such an important matter from me."

"I……"

Yang Mi was about to speak when Lin Bufan interrupted her with a serious tone.

"You don't need to say anything now. I'll send someone to pick you up right now and take you back to China immediately."

"But filming for Death 2 is about to begin. If I go back now, I won't be able to stay for more than a few days before I have to come back. Won't such a long flight and the back-and-forth travel affect the baby...?"

"Now that you're thinking about the baby, you don't need to consider 'Bleach 2' anymore. We'll film it after you give birth. That's settled."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Bufan immediately instructed Bai Bing to make a trip for him and take his private plane to pick her up.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye. Lin Bufan drove into the Capital International Airport. Because it was a private plane, he was allowed to drive into the airport to pick up his passengers.

"husband……"

As soon as Yang Mi got off the plane, she saw Lin Bufan standing next to the car. She quickly walked over, took his arm, and made a sweet, ingratiating sound.

"I'll deal with you when we get home!"

Lin Bufan glared at Yang Mi; what she had done had truly angered him.

Sometimes, he really felt that this woman was brainless.

He may have a shrewd face, but he actually does a lot of foolish things.

"They were wrong, they won't do it again..."

After getting into the car, Yang Mi clung tightly to Lin Bufan, pleading, "Please forgive me just this once, okay...?"

Ultimately, the matter was only resolved after Yang Mi signed numerous unfair contracts.

"Honey, has Extraordinary Pictures agreed to postpone filming of 'Bleach 2'?"

After seeing that Lin Bufan had calmed down, Yang Mi looked at him nervously.

She is the absolute female lead in the Bleach series. The reason she didn't return to her country is because she was afraid that her position as the female lead would be replaced.

What do you think?

Lin Bufan glanced at Yang Mi.

He thought for a moment, then looked at her and said, "I'm the boss behind Extraordinary Pictures!"

"What?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Mi looked at Lin Bufan with a shocked expression.

Extraordinary Pictures' current influence in the global entertainment industry is incomparable to that of Kyoto Entertainment in China.

Especially with the continuous production of several blockbuster films by Extraordinary Pictures, Extraordinary Pictures' status in Hollywood is now approaching that of the Big Eight studios.

Among Hollywood's independent production companies, it stands out as a class of its own, far surpassing Lionsgate or Summit Entertainment.

So now you're telling me that Extraordinary Pictures is your business? How could Yang Mi not be confused?

However, immediately afterward, Yang Mi recalled every step of Lin Bufan's rise to power, which seemed to confirm one point: Lin Bufan was the behind-the-scenes boss of Extraordinary Pictures.

Actually, regarding speculation about the boss behind Extraordinary Pictures, things are a bit better in China, since the distance is too great. People in China only know that Extraordinary Pictures is powerful, but they don't know just how powerful.

But in Hollywood, many stars want to get on the good side of Extraordinary Pictures.

The first film produced by Extraordinary Pictures was "Manchester by the Sea," which was also the first film directed by Lin Bufan.

Subsequently, every step Lin Bufan took overlapped significantly with that of Extraordinary Pictures.

Yang Mi and the others hadn't considered these things before because Feifan Pictures publicly announced that Lin Bufan was a shareholder, which made many things reasonable, and naturally no one would associate him with the behind-the-scenes boss of Feifan Pictures.

"Honey, you're amazing..."

After figuring it out, Yang Mi looked at Lin Bufan and her eyes sparkled with excitement.

"Don't get too excited, be careful not to upset the baby!"

Lin Bufan glared at Yang Mi with annoyance. It's only been a little over three months now. Although she's become much more stable, her emotions and movements can still have an impact.

"They're happy..."

Yang Mi chuckled, resting her head on Lin Bufan's shoulder, imagining herself dominating Hollywood.

Not long after, the car drove into the Qingcui Garden villa.

Since learning that Yang Mi was pregnant, Lin Bufan hired a team of 12 nannies and childcare workers, treating them the same as Liu Yifei, Dong Xuan, and Zhou Huimin.

Lin Bufan knew that he couldn't treat all his women equally, but that's precisely why he would do his best to treat everyone fairly in terms of material things.
