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

"Hello, Miss Tang."

Lin Bufan looked at Tang Ning.

Tang Ning isn't the kind of beauty that immediately stuns you at first glance, but rather the kind of beauty that grows on you.

Tang Ning was also one of the earlier Hong Kong and Taiwan actresses to develop her career in mainland China, but her career was lukewarm and she never had any hit works.

Tang Ning's appearance infuriated Zhang Baizhi, and her presence immediately cooled down her conversation with Lin Bufan.

"Where are Ah S and Ah Gil?"

On the other side, Huo Wenxi searched the venue but couldn't find Gillian Chung. So when he saw Charlene Choi, he walked over directly.

"Ah Jiao..."

Upon hearing this, Ah S gestured with her lips.

Following Ah S's gaze, Huo Wenxi saw that Ah Jiao, whom he was looking for, had actually gone to find Lin Bufan, and they seemed to be having a very pleasant chat.

"she……"

Huo Wenxi looked at Ah S.

"Of course, an outstanding man will attract a woman's heart."

Ah S shrugged. If she hadn't already gotten married, she might have ended up like Ah Jiao.

Hearing Ah S say that, Huo Wenxi breathed a sigh of relief.

That's great. Without her having to say anything, Ajiao went to find Lin Bufan on her own initiative. Otherwise, she would have been thinking about how to persuade Ajiao.

"Mani, do you need to see Gillian Chung about something?"

Ah S looked at Huo Wenxi with a puzzled expression.

"fine!"

Huo Wenxi shook his head slightly, not telling the other party the truth.

……

"Hey, Edison, stop looking..."

In a corner of the banquet hall, Nicholas Tse patted photographer Chen on the shoulder to comfort him.

"He's from the mainland, and this is Hong Kong..." Photographer Chen looked at Lin Bufan surrounded by beautiful women, his face full of resentment and his tone full of jealousy and hatred.

Chen, a photographer born in Canada, often looks down on mainland China and doesn't think much of it.

Even though Lin Bufan won the Oscar for Best Director, he was only outwardly respectful, but inwardly he looked down on him.

In the past, photographer Chen, with his status as a rich second-generation and a popular young actor in Hong Kong, was always a prominent figure at banquets, surrounded by beautiful women.

But today, the situation has changed; the other party has stolen the limelight that should have been theirs.

Especially recently, photographer Chen has been pursuing Gillian Chung, but the girl he likes is now eagerly chatting with other men, which naturally makes him even more unhappy.

"Nicholas, I heard you and Ah-Zhi got back together?"

Photographer Chen looked at Lin Bufan in the distance, then suddenly had an idea and turned to look at Xie Tingfeng beside him.

Nicholas is Nicholas Tse's English name, but generally only photographer Chen uses this name to refer to him; others use names like Nicholas Tse, Ah Fung, or Little Tse.

I haven't made up my mind yet.

Nicholas Tse looked at Cheung Pak-chi, who was flirting with Lin Bufan in the distance, and his expression was somewhat complicated.

During the filming of "The Promise", due to the closed nature of the film crew and the fact that he and Cecilia Cheung had been together before, their old feelings rekindled.

However, after filming "The Promise", Cecilia Cheung did not break up with her foreign boyfriend, so she is now hesitant.

"Young Master Chen, Young Master Feng, you're here! We've been looking for you for ages."

Just then, a man named Du X, who was not very tall and a bit overweight, walked over with a wine glass in his hand.

This banquet was specially organized by Emperor Entertainment for Lin Bufan. It was also a stage for fame and fortune, where different people naturally came into contact with different circles.

Du X had just emerged from a group of young models when he saw Chen Guanxi and Xie Tingfeng and hurriedly walked over.

If you want to make a name for yourself in Hong Kong, the most important thing is to know who you can offend and who you can't.

In Du X's eyes, Chan Koon-hei and Nicholas Tse, two of Hong Kong's most popular young actors, are absolutely not to be offended.

"What's wrong, Young Master Chen? You seem a little down."

Seeing Chen Guanxi looking somewhat sullen, Du X looked at Xie Tingfeng beside him with some confusion.

"Would you be happy if the woman you were pursuing was with another man?" Xie Tingfeng glanced at Du X, his words carrying a double meaning.

In his heart, how could he not love Cecilia Cheung?

If he liked her, he wouldn't have married her, nor would he have supported her when the Houshimen incident first broke out.

If Zhang Baizhi hadn't been so clueless, and hadn't run into Chen Guanxi on the plane and insisted on taking a photo with him, the two of them would never have broken up.

Speaking of the scandal, I have to say that Chen Guanxi is truly a scoundrel.

Nicholas Tse always treated him like a brother, but he ended up having an affair with his sister-in-law, and not only that, he even took photos of it.

"What is Young Master Feng referring to?"

Du X was a little confused. Following Xie Tingfeng's gaze, he saw Lin Bufan, who was the most glamorous person in the crowd.

When he saw Ah Jiao laughing heartily next to Lin Bufan, he knew what was going on.

Chan Koon-hei's pursuit of Gillian Chung was an open secret in Hong Kong's entertainment circle, though not everyone knew it. Many people, including To X, were aware of it.

"Just a director from mainland China, I'll go and meet him..."

Du X's heart stirred, and he walked towards Lin Bufan with his wine glass in hand.

He knew that the dinner was for Lin Bufan, and he also knew that Lin Bufan was a big Hollywood director, but one thing was certain: he was involved in the Hong Kong entertainment circle.

He didn't expect to one day develop his career in Hollywood, let alone think about going to mainland China.

Since that's the case, he certainly can't ask Lin Bufan for help, so naturally his status in Du X's heart isn't high either. In comparison, if he can make things difficult for the other party, he can definitely please Chen Guanxi.

Others may not know, but he once saw Chen Guanxi on a date with a woman, who was none other than the niece of the owner of Emperor Group, Mr. Yang.

If they could get on Chen Guanxi's good side, Emperor Entertainment's resources would be at his fingertips in the future.

"Director Lin, can I call you when I go to the mainland to film in the future?"

Gillian blinked her big eyes and looked at Lin Bufan.

"sure."

Lin Bufan smiled and nodded at Ajiao.

Through their casual conversation, Lin Bufan subtly probed whether Gillian Chung and Photographer Chen had any relationship at this time.

If there's any connection, it's that the other person has been pursuing her, but she hasn't agreed to be with him yet.

Among the new generation of actresses in Hong Kong's entertainment circle, Gillian Chung's beauty is definitely among the top three. Her portrayal of Xianle in the later TV series "The Legend of Nuwa" was absolutely stunning.

"Oh dear, I'm so sorry, I accidentally spilled the wine. Director Lin, you're one of Hollywood's best directors, you probably won't hold a grudge against a nobody like me, will you?"

Just then, an annoying voice suddenly rang out.
