The traveling frog is living a carefree life in the Marvel universe.

"Wait!" Bai Ye raised his hand to stop Duan Chengxuan from continuing. "Your name is Duan Chengxuan, so what is Duan Lingwei to you?"

"You...know my sister?"

Duan Chengxuan looked at Bai Ye with a puzzled expression.

"So Duan Lingwei is your sister? You should have said so earlier! I'm your sister's good friend! I was wondering why you looked familiar. I think I saw your picture at your sister's house in America."

Bai Ye smiled kindly at Duan Chengxuan, looking at him with the kind of gaze one would give a brother-in-law.

Yes, Duan Chengxuan's older sister, Duan Lingwei, was one of Bai Ye's ex-girlfriends. They broke up later due to various reasons, but they remained friends.

"Why haven't I heard my sister mention you before?"

Duan Chengxuan felt uncomfortable under Bai Ye's kind gaze.

He is the CEO of Star Entertainment Company. He has an extraordinary talent and keen sense for film and television production and has never made a mistake since his debut. However, he is arrogant and domineering and cannot have physical contact with women. If he does, he will have allergy-like symptoms.

Duan Lingwei, as Duan Chengxuan's older sister, also helped her brother and became a top agent at Xingyu Entertainment. She is intelligent, elegant, and quick-witted, and has discovered many promising stars, making outstanding contributions to Xingyu Entertainment.

"Then call your sister and mention me, and you'll find out."

Bai Ye smiled and waved to Duan Chengxuan:

"Goodbye, Brother Duan. I'll treat you to a meal another time when you have time."

After speaking, Bai Ye drove his Aston Martin and quickly disappeared from Duan Chengxuan's sight.

He unexpectedly met his brother-in-law, but Bai Ye had countless brothers-in-law, so they weren't very valuable. His sister was much more important.

"real or fake?"

Duan Chengxuan glanced at the rear of Bai Ye's car and muttered something.

I thought about it.

He actually took out his phone and called his sister, Duan Lingwei:

"Hey sis, do you know someone named Bai Ye?"

Duan Lingwei asked in surprise, "How did you know about him?"

Duan Chengxuan: "We just met. He said I looked familiar, so he asked if I knew Duan Lingwei. I said Duan Lingwei is my sister, and he said that I was his good friend."

Duan Lingwei: "...Uh, I am indeed his good friend. But Bai Ye, well... I can't say for sure. But you absolutely mustn't fight with him, otherwise, I estimate a hundred of you wouldn't be enough for him to beat."

Duan Chengxuan was annoyed: "Sis, don't underestimate me. I've always been working out, okay? And he, apart from being a little bit handsome, doesn't look like anything special."

Duan Lingwei: "...Have you ever killed anyone?"

Duan Chengxuan: "...Kill...kill someone? Sis, are you kidding me?"

Duan Lingwei: "I'm not joking with you. Bai Ye kills people like chickens. I saw it with my own eyes!"

"..." Duan Chengxuan: "Sis, what kind of friends did you make? Won't they get you into danger?"

Duan Lingwei: "You're overthinking it. It was when I was traveling in France that I encountered danger, and he saved my life. It was during that time that I truly saw the real nature of this world."

Duan Chengxuan: "Encountering danger? Then why have you never mentioned it, sister?"

"Everything's been resolved, why am I bringing this up? Do I want to make you worry unnecessarily?" Duan Lingwei asked, "You met Bai Ye, how is he doing now? Is he alright?"

Duan Chengxuan: "Of course he's great! He drives an Aston Martin One-77, which is enough to buy two or three of my Maybach S680s. And just now, right in front of me, he picked up a naive and innocent woman!"

Duan Lingwei: "..."

As Duan Lingwei remained silent for a long time on the other end of the phone, Duan Chengxuan seemed to realize something:

"Sis, you two weren't having an affair, were you?"

"It's nothing, it's all in the past," Duan Lingwei changed the subject. "If you envy his Aston Martin One-77, how about I get you one for your birthday this year?"

“I’m not interested in the Aston Martin One-77 right now. On the contrary… I wonder if that guy would deceive your feelings?” Duan Chengxuan: “I think so too. Judging from his appearance and demeanor, you can tell he’s the kind of person who likes to deceive women!”

Duan Lingwei: "Don't make wild guesses. I've already said we're in the past. What business is it of my what kind of girlfriend he's dating now? By the way... isn't Xingmei preparing for its next round of financing?"

Duan Chengxuan asked in confusion, "Why are you suddenly bringing this up, sis?"

Duan Lingwei: "Bai Ye has a lot of spare cash and extremely abundant cash flow. He doesn't invest much, he just buys houses. I helped him buy a lot of houses in several first-tier cities. If you can build a good relationship with him and persuade him to invest in Xingmei, the conditions he offers will definitely not be as demanding as the real estate developers and investment banks you are currently dealing with."

Duan Chengxuan: "No way, sis, he bullied my sister, and I have to beg him for investment? That would be too pathetic!"

Duan Lingwei: "Duan Chengxuan! How many times do I have to tell you? He and I have nothing to do with each other anymore! I'm just giving you a suggestion. Whether you do it or not is up to you. I don't care anymore!"

As she was speaking, Duan Lingwei hung up the phone.

"Why the rush?"

Duan Chengxuan, holding the phone, muttered:

"There must be something I don't know!"

However, Duan Chengxuan began to reconsider Duan Lingwei's suggestion.

As an entertainment company, Star Media was created by Duan Chengxuan from scratch. It started small but gradually grew. Now, with the rapid development of the entertainment industry, if Duan Chengxuan wants to ride this wave and take Star Media to new heights, he must accept financing, raise money, expand the business, and gradually develop Star Media into a large entertainment group.

Honestly, who in the entertainment industry wouldn't want to become an entertainment godfather?

Currently, most investors value Star Media at around 15 billion RMB, but only one real estate developer is willing to value it at 18 billion RMB.

No one ever complains about having too much money.

Therefore, Duan Chengxuan is now trying his best to negotiate with this real estate developer.

The other party was willing to offer 3.6 million yuan to finance a 20% stake in Xingmei, but with conditions: a performance-based agreement had to be signed with Duan Chengxuan, which set a difficult-to-achieve net profit target. If Duan Chengxuan failed to meet the target, he would have to sell all of his 51% stake in Xingmei to the real estate developer at a low price.

In other words, if Duan Chengxuan loses, he might only have his underwear left.

However, as Duan Chengxuan continued negotiations with the other party, he was already inclined to accept their betting agreement. After all, he was Duan Chengxuan, a well-known gold-medal producer in China. As long as he could secure that investment and develop the projects that Star Media currently had in stock, he believed he could definitely meet the other party's requirements.

Of course, if there were better investors, purely financial investors without any further performance-based requirements, Duan Chengxuan wouldn't be stupid enough to refuse them.

"In that case, for my sister's sake, I can't help but consider giving you an opportunity to invest in me!" Duan Chengxuan snorted. "With my discerning eye, investing in me will definitely bring you a hefty return. You'll make a fortune!"

……

Bai Ye drove his Aston Martin One-77, speeding along the road.

Passing vehicles all avoided Bai Ye's car, not daring to get close.

Without him.

They were afraid that if they bumped or fell, they would go bankrupt.

"Bai Ye, I'm so glad you were here today, otherwise I would have been dead."

Su Cheng said with a grin:

"But that guy was so narcissistic. I just wanted a ride, and he said I was trying to hit on him..."

Bai Ye was both amused and exasperated, and said:

"My dear lady, are you kidding me? When you were asking for a ride, didn't you even look at the car's emblem? That's a Maybach S680, a luxury car worth five million. Do you think it's for you to ride around in?"

"A Maybach S680? Worth five million?"

Su Cheng clicked her tongue:

"Is it that expensive?"

Well, judging from her appearance, she probably doesn't recognize the car Bai Ye is driving now, which is worth over ten million RMB.

“But I’m not like you guys who are interested in cars,” Su Cheng said. “Right now, I’m focused on honing my acting skills. I’ve read books like ‘An Actor Prepares,’ ‘Acting as a Character,’ and ‘Creating a Role’ over and over again! Besides, I’m so busy with my extra work that I don’t even have enough time to sleep. Where would I find the time to recognize the logos of luxury cars?”

As Bai Ye drove, he said:

"But if you want to become a star, you definitely have to remember the logos of luxury cars. Not only that, but also various luxury brands. Most of your job as a star involves dealing with these things."

"When a celebrity doesn't understand luxury car and luxury brand names, it's like being a top student but not knowing what CNKI (China National Knowledge Infrastructure) is, and then claiming to have read books written by Nobel Prize-winning mathematicians—you'll be criticized terribly!"

"Isn't CNKI something everyone who's been to college knows? The Nobel Prize in Mathematics... any normal person knows there's no Nobel Prize in Mathematics, okay?"

Su Cheng's focus is quite strange.

“Exactly. If you’re a big shot in a certain field but lack even basic common sense, that won’t work,” Bai Ye said. “Do you think celebrities live off acting fees? Of course not! Acting fees are only a small part of their income; the majority comes from commercial endorsements. They spend a day or two shooting an ad, and ‘bang!’ Tens of millions in income roll in. Isn’t that awesome?”

Su Cheng: "If I really become a star, I will definitely prioritize my work, strive to improve my acting skills, make better movies and TV series, and take it one step at a time to reach the top."

"Well, Miss, so how many steps have you taken so far?"

Bai Ye asked with a smile.

"Hehe..." Su Cheng stuck out her tongue and said, "Now it should be considered as taking the first step in a long journey, but I firmly believe that my future will be successful."

Bai Ye chuckled and said, "That's right. The most important thing for a star is your thick skin! If you keep it up, becoming a big star in the future will definitely be no problem."

You're the shameless one!

Su Cheng slapped Bai Ye indignantly.

The two were bickering when Su Cheng received another phone call.

"Yes, yes, Sister Xiaoxiao, I'm in the car now and I'll be right back."

Su Cheng hung up the phone and sighed helplessly.

"Bai Ye, drive faster! Sister Xiao Xiao is in such a hurry, she keeps urging me on!"

"Who is this person, treating you like this? They're practically using you like a mule." Bai Ye frowned and said, "I've never treated you like this before, okay?"

“It’s the same!” Su Cheng said, “I’m Xiaoxiao’s assistant now, she’s my boss, so making money isn’t shameful!”

"Shabby, fucking shabby!"

Bai Ye said:

“You can’t just mess around like this. You need to find a reliable agency and an agent. If you keep playing minor roles, it’s almost impossible to succeed.”

"Of course I know that playing minor roles won't work, but I just use this every two years after entering the industry to hone my acting skills and familiarize myself with the basics of acting. Once I feel that playing minor roles really won't help me anymore, I might choose to attend a training course or participate in a talent show..."

Su Cheng patiently explained:
