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

"Boss, the organizing committee of the Hundred Flowers Awards just called to ask when we're leaving?"

Lin Bufan had just returned to the villa and was preparing to film a movie today when he quickly walked over.

"what?"

"The Hundred Flowers Award?"

Lin Bufan had really forgotten about this.

He's been so busy lately that he completely forgot about attending the Hundred Flowers Awards ceremony.

"Boss, we promised the Hundred Flowers Award, so..." Zhang Tianai looked at Lin Bufan with a troubled expression.

There was no way around it; Lin Bufan had promised he would definitely participate.

Even the Hundred Flowers Awards have subtly hinted that he will definitely attend.

At this point, if Lin Bufan refuses to go...

First, Lin Bufan will be labeled as "untrustworthy," and second, the Hundred Flowers Awards will feel that they have been tricked.

"Alright, make the arrangements..."

Lin Bufan then looked at Zhang Tian'ai and asked, "By the way, have all the crew members of 'Black Coal, Thin Ice' been notified?"

"Director, they've already gone to Dalian."

Zhang Tianai looked at Lin Bufan with a helpless expression.

For Lin Bufan, the Hundred Flowers Awards might not be that important, since he's always aiming for the Oscars and the three major European awards.

However, for other actors, the Hundred Flowers Award is a major award.

"Okay, I understand."

Lin Bufan nodded as he spoke.

"Boss, there's one more thing."

Seeing Lin Bufan turn to leave, Zhang Tianai hurriedly spoke up: "What about the Hundred Flowers Awards..."

"We'll talk about it later!"

As Lin Bufan spoke, he grabbed Zhang Tianai and led her into the room.

Last night, considering that Liu Yifei had to take a flight today, Lin Bufan let her off the hook.

Originally, he was thinking that he still had to film a movie today.

But now that it's settled, and I'm going to attend the Hundred Flowers Awards ceremony tonight, what is there to hesitate about?

"Boss, the flight is at 2 PM..."

Zhang Tianai exclaimed in surprise, not forgetting to remind Lin Bufan.

"Four or five hours more, that should be enough!"

Lin Bufan left no room for argument.

As Lin Bufan's physique grew stronger and stronger, and he insisted on taking Liuwei Dihuang Pills every day, his abilities in certain aspects became increasingly enhanced.

……

At 2 PM, Lin Bufan, accompanied by Zhang Tianai, arrived at the airport again.

"Why don't you go back and get some sleep and rest?"

Lin Bufan looked at Zhang Tianai, who was looking a little sleepy, and said with a smile.

"Hmph, it's all your fault!"

Zhang Tianai rolled her eyes at Lin Bufan, annoyed.

She already said her flight was at 2 PM, but he still insisted on going. What could she do?

"hehe!"

Lin Bufan smiled. It was boarding time, so he and Zhang Tianai boarded the plane and entered the business class.

His private jet was currently carrying Liu Yifei to Hollywood, so he had to book a plane ticket.

"Tian'ai, remember to remind me to get another private jet when I have time."

After boarding the plane, Lin Bufan sat in his seat and felt somewhat awkward.

He's used to flying on his own private jet, so even business class doesn't feel right for him now.

"Boss, a private jet isn't cheap every year."

Zhang Tianai reminded Lin Bufan from the side.

The annual cost of flying and maintaining Lin Bufan's private jet is at least ten million US dollars.

"Boss, do you think I'm short of money?"

Lin Bufan closed his eyes and leaned back in his seat.

"However, you're not wrong either. If we were to buy another private jet, we wouldn't need to buy one that's that expensive."

His current Gulfstream G550 private jet can fly over 1.2 kilometers in a single trip. This distance means he can fly directly to almost anywhere in the world without needing to stop and rest.

One such private jet is enough.

If you buy another one, you could buy a smaller private jet, just for domestic flights, like one with a short-range range of 3000-5000 kilometers.

"But we need to buy from several more stores; we have too many family members."

Lin Bufan nodded seriously.

He has so many women now, one private jet is simply not enough.

"Let's tentatively buy six small private planes, each capable of carrying about 16 people and with a range of 5000 kilometers," Lin Bufan said, looking at Zhang Tianai. "After you go back, look up some information on this and see which ones are suitable."

"Okay, I got it, boss!"

Zhang Tianai nodded.

The flight from Qinhuangdao to Dalian takes only about half an hour, and even with boarding and exiting the airport, it only takes about an hour.

They boarded the plane at 2:10 PM, arrived at Dalian Airport, and exited the airport at 3:05 PM.

"director!"

Lin Bufan led Zhang Tianai out of the airport, where they were greeted by members of the Hundred Flowers Awards organizing committee and all the members of the "Black Coal, Thin Ice" film crew.

The cast includes Liang Jiahui as Zhang Zili, Gui Lunmei as Wu Zhizhen, Liao Fan as Liang Zhijun, and Yu Ailei as Detective Xiao Wang.

"Why are you back?"

After greeting him, Lin Bufan turned to look at Liang Jiahui.

Now, however, during the filming of "Pirates of the Caribbean," Leung Ka-fai was the male lead.

"Director, the crew is currently filming scenes on the island, so I've taken two days off. I'll fly back after the awards ceremony tonight," Liang Jiahui hurriedly explained to Lin Bufan.

He didn't want Lin Bufan to misunderstand him.

Both he and outsiders knew that he was able to get Hollywood resources entirely because of Lin Bufan.

"kindness!"

Upon hearing Tony Leung's explanation, Lin Bufan stopped talking.

As long as it doesn't delay the film's shooting schedule, it's fine.

"By the way, what's the red carpet schedule for tonight?"

After arriving at the hotel provided by the organizing committee, Lin Bufan looked at Zhang Tianai.

"Boss, the organizing committee's red carpet schedule is that you'd like to be the last one to appear, as the grand finale..." Zhang Tianai explained the schedule to Lin Bufan.

Normally, the director should appear on set with the crew.

However, Lin Bufan's influence was too great, and this was his first time participating in a domestic film festival. The Hundred Flowers Awards organizing committee hoped that Lin Bufan could walk alone.

Why didn't you tell me sooner?

Lin Bufan looked at Zhang Tianai speechlessly.

He was just chatting with Liang Jiahui and the others about walking the red carpet together tonight, but now he has to walk it all by himself.

"I was going to say that, but you interrupted me, boss." Zhang Tianai looked at Lin Bufan with a helpless and reproachful expression.

"Ahem, okay!"

Lin Bufan coughed lightly, skipping over the whole topic.

Indeed, I was a bit too hasty at the time and didn't let Zhang Tian'ai finish speaking.

"If I have to walk by myself, what about my female companion?"
