My cousin asked me to go to Wuha, and Hanikezi stuck to me.

Chen Yi stared at the two lines of text on the screen, his fingers gently stroking the edge of the phone.

Xiao Fang peeked over, glanced at it, and his face turned pale instantly.

"Bro! This is a declaration of war!" Xiao Fang nearly jumped up in panic. "I'll contact the platform right now to check the location!"

"Can't find it." Chen Yi turned off the screen and casually tossed the phone back onto the table. "Virtual number, overseas server."

"What do we do?" Xiao Fang paced anxiously in the office. "Those bastards at Xingyu Entertainment are resorting to such underhanded tactics! They're trying to wage psychological warfare!"

"They desperately need this penalty to fill the hole." Chen Yi leaned back in his chair, his tone so calm it was impossible to detect a ripple. "They sent this text message just to make me lose my composure on the red carpet tonight, which will be broadcast live online."

"I've raised security to the highest level," Xiao Fang gritted his teeth. "Not even a fly will get near you tonight!"

"Tell security to leave the perimeter alone." Chen Yi stood up, picked up his suit jacket draped over the back of his chair, and said, "Let them take pictures."

Six o'clock in the afternoon. Beijing Olympic Stadium.

The scene of the Chinese Golden Melody Awards ceremony.

The red carpet was bustling with people, and the media's cameras and microphones were packed tightly together.

A pure black Mercedes-Benz van slowly came to a stop at the end of the red carpet.

The car door opened.

Chen Yi stepped out of the car.

Wearing a pure black haute couture suit with a minimalist cut and no unnecessary accessories, he accentuated his tall and slender figure, making him appear extremely imposing.

[Camera Sensitivity Lv4] Automatic operation.

Chen Yi casually buttoned up the single button on his suit jacket and looked up.

Just this one extremely casual movement.

The media areas on both sides of the red carpet instantly erupted in cheers.

"Look this way! Chen Yi, look this way!"

"Lift your chin up a little! Good!"

The flashes were as bright as day, and the sound of shutters was like a dense downpour.

The live stream chat was completely flooded with "Ahhh!" comments.

"This man looks absolutely stunning in a suit!"

"With that aura, I'd believe it if you told me he was here to buy out the organizers!"

"He's definitely the best newcomer of the year!"

Chen Yi walked forward on the red carpet.

The pace was neither hurried nor slow.

His gaze swept naturally over the media reporters frantically snapping photos on both sides.

My gaze lingered for half a second on a few inconspicuous corners.

The gap in the GG brand logo in the northeast corner.

The side of the security tower in the southwest corner.

The top of the broadcast van directly in front.

Eight extremely well-hidden telephoto lenses were like venomous snakes, relentlessly biting at his face.

This is definitely not a camera angle used by mainstream media.

A red system notification popped up on my retina.

[Warning: High-precision telephoto lock detected.]

[The basic level of Disguise is now fully activated.]

Facial micro-expressions and gaze placement have been optically blurred.

Inside a black minivan 300 meters away from the red carpet.

Zhuo Ge, the top paparazzo of Fengxing Studio, was staring intently at the monitor in front of him.

"Camera number three, zoom in for a close-up!" Brother Zhuo gave the order into his headset. "Keep your eyes glued to him! I don't believe he won't even glance at you!"

The image on the screen zoomed in instantly.

Chen Yi's highly recognizable face filled the entire screen.

Zhuo squinted, trying to discern even the slightest hint of tension or anticipation from Chen Yi's muscle definition and eyes.

Two seconds later.

Frustrated, Brother Zhuo slammed his hand on the control panel.

"What's wrong with camera number three! Focus it!" Brother Zhuo yelled.

"Brother Zhuo, you've got it on target!" came the aggrieved voice from his subordinate through the earpiece. "This is already the highest resolution focal length!"

Zhuo Ge stared at the screen.

Chen Yi's facial features are clearly visible in the picture, but as soon as you try to capture his micro-expressions, his entire face looks like it's covered with an extremely eerie layer of frosted glass.

I wasn't nervous.

I have no expectations.

Even the trajectory of his eyeballs was blurred into a mess.

"Damn it," Zhuo gritted his teeth. "Is this kid's facial expression control a robot?!"

On the red carpet.

Chen Yi walked up to the autograph board.

I took the marker from the hostess and signed my name neatly.

He turned around to face hundreds of cameras.

He curled his lips into a flawless, official smile.

"Chen Yi! What are your expectations for the two nominations tonight?" a reporter in the front row asked loudly.

"Let nature take its course," Chen Yi said calmly.

"Have the recent changes in senior management at Star Entertainment Media affected your personal studio?" another reporter asked sharply.

Chen Yi's gaze swept over.

"You should ask Xingyu's legal department about their affairs," Chen Yi said in a very calm tone. "After all, they're quite busy right now."

The whole audience burst into laughter.

The reporter was left speechless.

Chen Yi didn't linger. He turned around, walked off the red carpet, and entered the waiting area.

Xiao Fang immediately came forward and handed over a bottle of mineral water.

"Brother, that aura was amazing just now," Xiao Fang said in a low voice. "But I also noticed that a few camera angles were definitely off; there wasn't even a media sign."

"Eight telephoto lenses." Chen Yi unscrewed the bottle cap, took a sip of water, "All of them are pointed at me."

Xiao Fang gasped.

"Have these people at Star Entertainment gone mad?!" Xiao Fang exclaimed anxiously. "To stage this kind of harassment on the Golden Melody Awards red carpet? Aren't they afraid of offending the organizers?"

"They're at their wits' end now." Chen Yi handed the water bottle to Xiao Fang. "As long as they can get solid evidence, they don't care who they offend."

Just then, Xiao Fang's walkie-talkie suddenly rang.

"Brother Fang, we've spotted two suspicious staff members in Section B of the inner area," the security captain's voice came through. "They've been watching the distance between Professor Chen's seat and the third row in Section A."

Xiao Fang's expression changed, and she looked at Chen Yi.

"Brother, they've even infiltrated the inner area," Xiao Fang gritted his teeth. "Sister Hong separated your seats by three rows, and these paparazzi are still looking for angles. How are you going to hand her the script later?"

Chen Yi did not respond.

He tapped his fingers lightly twice on the outside of his suit pocket.

There was a USB drive inside.

It was filled with all the materials and copyright certificates for that S-level script.

"I said it." Chen Yi turned his head, his gaze fixed on the huge broadcast screen in the center of the hall, "I handed it over openly and honestly."

The screen then switched back to the starting point of the red carpet.

A stretched Lincoln slowly came to a stop.

The car door opened.

A pair of shapely calves wearing strappy high heels took the first step.

Immediately afterwards, Sister Hong, dressed in a black business suit, stepped out of the car with a cold expression and warily scanned her surroundings.

Then she turned around and reached out her hand.

A fair hand rested on Sister Hong's arm.

As Chen Yigang finished walking the red carpet and entered the waiting area, Hanikezi's red carpet segment officially began.

At that moment, the flashes from all the cameras seemed to go out of control, creating a blinding aurora.

She was wearing a gold haute couture gown with a Dunhuang flying apsara theme.

The form-fitting cut accentuates an extremely alluring figure.

Golden threads swayed under the light, and the skirt fluttered gently in the night breeze.

Her long hair was piled high, revealing her slender and graceful swan neck.

That exotic face, set against the backdrop of vibrant colors, possessed a strikingly aggressive beauty.

After a one-second pause, the live stream chat exploded with an unprecedented surge of comments.

Only two words remained on the screen.

"Absolutely stunning!"
