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

Carter Dennis had already finalized his filming schedule for the second half of the year.

"Let's proceed with your filming plan!"

Lin Bufan glanced at it briefly.

In this day and age, neither domestic films nor Hollywood films have reached their highest box office performance.

Extraordinary Film Company is currently filming its biggest project, the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie.

In addition, there's the upcoming "Iron Man".

The pre-production of the movie "Iron Man" is almost complete.

Filming can only begin once Deng Chao's schedule becomes available.

Lin Bufan no longer interfered with these projects.

He no longer has the energy to interfere with the company's filming projects, or even the selection of actors.

He believed that Carter Dennis would handle this matter well.

……

Two days have passed in the blink of an eye.

"Director Lin!"

Lin Bufan was somewhat surprised to see Li Bingbing suddenly appear in front of him.

"Director Lin, why are you looking at me like that?"

Li Bingbing looked at Lin Bufan, smiled elegantly, and then sat down next to Lin Bufan, staring at her.

"Has Resident Evil wrapped filming?"

Lin Bufan smiled at Li Bingbing without explaining.

Li Bingbing's beauty is quite unique in the entertainment industry.

She can be described as having an "ascetic" beauty.

No one can deny that Li Bingbing is very beautiful, the kind of beauty that stands out even in the entire entertainment industry.

However, when you are facing her, you always have a feeling of 'abstinence'.

To give a simple example, like Guan Xiaotong who later became famous, is she not pretty enough?

Do not!

To be honest, Guan Xiaotong is really beautiful, and she has a great figure with long legs.

However, in many people's eyes, they just can't muster any other thoughts about her.

"Yes, filming wrapped up yesterday!"

Li Bingbing nodded.

The filming of "Resident Evil" had a huge impact on her.

More importantly, because she was the female lead chosen by Lin Bufan, the entire crew fawned over and flattered her.

When I first joined the film crew.

She was still very nervous because she had heard from her older brother and some other people who had been to Hollywood that discrimination was very serious there.

This discrimination is especially severe against people of Chinese descent.

In a film crew, from the director to the ordinary staff on set, you never know who might try to trip you up.

Li Bingbing is already prepared.

In the end, they didn't use any methods. At first, she was wondering if they were going to use more subtle methods to deal with her.

But nothing like that happened until filming was finished.

Later, she found out.

She received this treatment because Lin Bufan had made arrangements; otherwise, as a nobody in Hollywood, how could she possibly avoid being targeted?

"Sister Bingbing!"

Just then, Zhao Liying came downstairs and greeted Li Bingbing.

She and Li Bingbing only knew who each other were; they didn't actually interact.

"Hello!"

Li Bingbing smiled slightly at Zhao Liying and nodded.

Conversely, she knew almost nothing about Zhao Liying, only that her presence here indicated a close relationship with Lin Bufan, and knew nothing else about her.

It's understandable, considering Zhao Liying has only been in the industry for a short time.

The TV series she starred in did make her famous to some extent, but she only has a little bit of fame in the industry and has just escaped the stage of being a nobody.

Li Bingbing, on the other hand, was a leading actress who was on par with the "Four Dan and Two Bing" (a group of four top actresses in China).

When do you plan to return to China?

After Li Bingbing and Zhao Liying finished greeting each other, Lin Bufan looked at her.

"I heard that Extraordinary Film Company is going public the day after tomorrow. I happen to have some spare cash on hand, so I'll invest in it!" Li Bingbing said to Lin Bufan with a smile.

She came here specifically at the request of her younger sister, Li Xue.

The listing of Extraordinary Film Company has nothing to do with her, but don't forget that Lin Bufan is a shareholder of the company, owning 10% of the shares.

Furthermore, Li Bingbing has just starred in "Resident Evil," a film produced by Extraordinary Film Company, playing the female lead.

From any perspective, she shouldn't have left so quickly.

Moreover, Li Xue had studied it carefully.

The IPO of Extraordinary Film Company was backed by several investment banks; who knows what the future holds.

However, in the early stages of listing, the stock price will definitely soar. If you can seize this opportunity, putting aside personal relationships, you can at least make a profit.

"In that case, you'll come with me to ring the bell the day after tomorrow!"

Lin Bufan glanced at Li Bingbing.

I instantly understood what the Li Bingbing sisters were thinking.

However, he wouldn't say anything.

That's just how the world is; relationships without mutual benefit will never last.

……

To Lin Bufan's surprise, Li Bingbing gave him a surprise that very night.

"You, what is this...?"

Since Li Bingbing did not have a residence in New York, Lin Bufan had a room prepared for her in the manor.

That evening, Li Bingbing knocked on Lin Bufan's door.

The moment the door opened, Lin Bufan looked at Li Bingbing standing in the doorway, wearing a white bathrobe.

"Let's come in first and talk about it!"

Seeing Li Bingbing's state, Lin Bufan didn't say anything and stepped aside to let her in.

However, what Lin Bufan didn't know was...

Zhao Liying witnessed everything from Li Bingbing knocking on the door to Lin Bufan letting her in.

Due to the initial injury, Zhao Liying has been resting for the past few days.

Things had just started to improve today, and I wanted to go find Lin Bufan.

As soon as she opened the door, she saw Li Bingbing standing at the door of Lin Bufan's room, so she stopped and hid to the side to observe her secretly.

"Hmph, I knew it!"

As Zhao Liying watched Li Bingbing walk into Lin Bufan's room, her little face puffed up, and she huffed.

She knew, of course, that Lin Bufan could not belong to her alone.

However, Lin Bufan only brought her to New York; Li Bingbing came to him on her own later.

"It's all your fault! You dawdled and let them seize the opportunity!"

Back in her room, Zhao Liying stood in front of the mirror, pointing at her reflection and talking to herself.
