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

"Director Lin!"

Just as Cai Yinong was about to lead Liu Shishi forward, he discovered that someone had intercepted him before they even reached Lin Bufan, so he could only stand back and wait for his chance.

Lin Bufan turned his head and saw Wang Jinghua appear in front of him with a familiar face.

"Director Lin, let me introduce you. This is a new artist signed by our Orange Sky Entertainment, her name is Tang Yan." Wang Jinghua said, looking at Tang Yan, "Aren't you going to say hello!"

"Director Lin, hello!"

Tang Yan stood in front of Lin Bufan and greeted him somewhat shyly.

"Hello, Miss Tang Yan!"

As Lin Bufan spoke, he looked the other person up and down.

It has to be said that Tang Yan's height and proportions are truly exceptional, especially her long, straight, and fair legs, which are simply stunning.

"Director Lin..."

……

The banquet was exhausting for Lin Bufan.

With constant social engagements and people coming over to chat and flatter him, Lin Bufan seized an opportunity and quietly slipped out the back door.

He really doesn't want to participate in such occasions again.

Poor Cai Yinong and Liu Shishi were still in the banquet hall, waiting for Lin Bufan to return, unaware that Lin Bufan had already left through the back door.

……

"Oh, Miss Qin Lan?"

Lin Bufan was somewhat surprised to see Qin Lan as soon as he reached the door.

The banquet isn't over yet, and normally everyone should be socializing inside. Why would Qin Lan leave so soon?

"Director Lin?"

Qin Lan was also somewhat surprised to see Lin Bufan.

Today is the celebration banquet for "2012". Lin Bufan is the director. Why would he suddenly leave? Isn't he afraid of offending people?

The thought had just popped into Qin Lan's mind when she remembered it.

Lin Bufan is not just a director, but also a big shot and a capitalist in the industry. What does he have to be afraid of? Others should be the ones who are afraid.

"Miss Qin Lan, what's going on?"

Lin Bufan walked up to Qin Lan and looked at her with some curiosity.

"Director Lin, to be honest..."

Qin Lan looked at Lin Bufan and explained with a slightly embarrassed expression.

This matter started last year. Ever since she and Lu Chuan broke up, she doesn't know if the other party used some kind of trick.

Qin Lan's resources have been decreasing again and again.

Don't assume that celebrities are all so loyal and glamorous; in reality, they all flatter the powerful and belittle the weak.

As Huang Bo later said, "When you become famous, everyone around you is a good person."

The opposite is that when you are still a nobody, or when you have lost power, not everyone around you will be trying to take advantage of you, but at least no one will want to associate with you anymore.

Because of this, no one in the banquet hall talked to Qin Lan, so she had to leave first.

What she didn't know was that no one paid attention to her because they saw Qin Lan chatting with Lin Bufan, so they ostracized her.

Of course, with Qin Lan's beauty, many men tried to flirt with her, but none of them caught her eye.

"Miss Qin, if you have some free time, how about we go for a drink?"

Lin Bufan's heart stirred, and he extended an invitation to Qin Lan.

"this……"

Qin Lan was certainly not a fool.

The other party extended such an invitation on their first meeting, their intentions were so obvious, how could she not know?

But should she agree?

To be fair, even in the entertainment industry where handsome men and beautiful women abound, Lin Bufan's handsomeness is in a class of its own, not to mention his talent and wealth.

In the entertainment industry, he's a big shot.

Women rarely refuse invitations from men like this.

She hesitated because she worried that if she agreed too easily, the other party would look down on her.

But if you refuse, you'll be wasting such a good opportunity.

Not everyone can see Lin Bufan so easily.

"Since Miss Qin Lan hasn't refused, I'll take that as a yes!"

Just then, Lin Bufan's driver drove up.

"Get in the car, Miss Qin Lan!"

Lin Bufan opened the car door and looked at Qin Lan, extending another invitation.

"Thank you, Mr. Lin!"

Qin Lan didn't hesitate this time.

Lin Bufan had already paved the way for her to leave. If she refused again, she would offend the other party. Of course, more importantly, she didn't want to offend the other party either.

However, what Lin Bufan and Qin Lan did not know was that...

Just then, several reporters in the distance took pictures of the two getting into the car.

"We've struck it rich! We've struck it rich..."

"I knew it. Lin Bufan praised Qin Lan so much last time, the two of them must be having an affair."

"Lin Bufan hasn't had any scandals in a long time. This photo will definitely fetch a good price."

Of course, he meant "new scandal" here.

There are rumors about Lin Bufan online every day, but the people involved are mostly the same; no "newcomers" have emerged for a long time.

……

"Bang!"

Inside a villa, Lu Chuan was looking at news online when she suddenly smashed a wine bottle on the ground, shattering the glass.

"You bitch, I knew it, you bitch..."

Lu Chuan cursed fiercely.

Last time, when Lin Bufan praised Qin Lan, he suspected that she had cheated on him.

Later, since no rumors about Qin Lan and Lin Bufan surfaced, he thought he was just overthinking things.

But now, seeing the two of them chatting and laughing together as they get into the car online, I can no longer control myself.

What annoyed him even more was that some people online called him "Lu the Hat." At first, he didn't understand what it meant, but he found out from the comments below.

"Lin Bufan, you just wait..." Lu Chuan gritted her teeth.

He vowed that once the movie was released, he would step over Lin Bufan to rise to the top, and he would repay the insult Lin Bufan had given him a hundredfold in the future.

……

Unfortunately, Lin Bufan was unaware of these things.

Even if he knew, he wouldn't care. Not only Lu Chuan, but even his father was just a nobody in Lin Bufan's eyes.

I'm giving you face because you're a senior colleague.

If I don't give you face, who do you think you are?

If the entertainment industry in China becomes like that in the future, do you really think it's all the fault of capital? It also has a lot to do with these old guys relying on their seniority.

If they're on their own people, they'll push them hard, regardless of whether it works or not. In their eyes, "it's okay even if it doesn't work," as long as there's a connection and money to be made, they'll give them a reward.

If someone isn't one of your own, or offends you, forget about awards; even your film script will face multiple hurdles in the approval process.

Fortunately, they haven't offended Lin Bufan yet, otherwise he would have already turned on them.

"Director Lin, let me rest for a while..."

Qin Lanxiang lay there drenched in sweat, truly not wanting to move a single finger.
