Eating Melons and Watching the Show in a Chronicles Novel

As a member of the working class, Lin Jingyu, a cargo registrar at a port, transmigrated to the early 1970s during her lunch break.

She unexpectedly discovered that she had entered a chronicl...

Chapter 557 They're all old foxes!

At the victory celebration banquet.

"That's amazing!"

Mr. Shao raised his glass to Lin Jingyu, saying, "Ms. Lin, you were born to do this. We are getting old, and the future belongs to you young people."

"I don't deserve it, I don't deserve it."

Lin Jingyu quickly returned the greeting, "Mr. Shao, I am just a junior and can only learn from you seniors. This time, I am grateful for your kindness and would like to offer you all a toast."

After speaking, he drank the wine in his glass in one gulp.

"I'm telling the truth."

Mr. Shao chuckled, finished his drink, and said with a smile, "Mr. Lin, there's no need to be modest. Your company's achievements are outstanding, as everyone can see."

"In a way, our cooperation with Mr. Lin's company can be considered a win-win situation."

Mr. Zou clinked his wine glass against Lin Jingyu's and continued, "I hope Ms. Lin won't forget us all and will continue to cooperate in the future."

Lin Jingyu lowered her glass and clinked it with the other person's, then smiled and replied, "Don't worry, seniors. Our company is just starting out and we still need your guidance. We hope you will take good care of us."

"You've got it backwards, girl."

Old Yang joked, "It's obvious we're waiting for Boss Lin's favor."

Upon hearing this, everyone present burst into laughter.

The surrounding stars couldn't help but show envy when they saw this.

Lin Jingyu is about the same age as them, yet she can chat and laugh with these big shots with ease.

Many people used to worry that Hongyao Company was not a local company.

These people held a certain degree of contempt in their hearts. At present, Hongyao Company is at its peak, and many stars and actors who want to become famous hope to join the company.

After the celebration banquet ended.

Lin Jingyu left with Mr. Jin Ming.

"Hey girl, did you bring the new manuscript this time?"

Mr. Jin Ming was somewhat troubled. "If you don't leave the complete manuscript of your new book, you shouldn't go back to Beijing."

"Don't worry, Uncle Jin, it's definitely here."

Lin Jingyu certainly hadn't forgotten this matter.

After all, she has countless excellent and classic novels in her possession. She can't bear to let them remain hidden from the world, so she'd rather share them. A work with readers' support is even more classic.

"That's more like it."

Mr. Jin Ming nodded in satisfaction. "When do you plan to return to the capital this time?"

They were aware that she had become the commander-in-chief in the capital.

Lin Jingyu responded, "I'll go back as soon as I've finished what I need to do."

"Looks like you're quite busy."

Mr. Jinming understood her difficulties; after all, she carried a heavy burden, and it was truly difficult for a woman to bear it.

Then he asked, "Do you know why they fawn over you like that?"

"What does Uncle mean?"

Lin Jingyu hadn't really thought about that issue.

After all, no one in the entertainment industry in Xiangdu gave her the cold shoulder.

"Your position within the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television in mainland China."

Mr. Jin Ming reminded them, "You may not care about your identity, but they care about it very much."

After all, the domestic market is much larger than the entire Xiangdu...

It should be said to be larger than the entire Asian market.

How could they possibly abandon the domestic market?

You are definitely the most suitable candidate in their eyes.

"I see."

Lin Jingyu patted her head, "I've been so busy lately that I haven't thought about these issues."

I always thought they wouldn't start vying for the mainland market until ten years from now.

"You really underestimate them."

Mr. Jinming laughed and said, "They are all old foxes. They have sharp eyes. Since they can spot the fat meat and the cake, do you think they wouldn't make plans in advance?"

Although their films and television dramas cannot be released on major platforms in mainland China, it is only a matter of time before they are included in the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television's list of directors and producers.

If we don't treat you well now, how will they steal the cake?

That's true.

Lin Jingyu nodded in agreement, "The higher-ups have already expressed this intention, hoping to introduce new films and television series, and to bring new elements to the domestic entertainment industry."

As you can see, the higher-ups have assigned this matter to me.

There has been no action yet because the time is not right.

In a little while, I'm afraid I'll also have to run around dealing with these matters.

"You should keep these things in mind."

Mr. Jinming thought for a moment and then said, "If you need anything, you can contact me anytime, and I will do my best to help."

"good."

Lin Jingyu readily agreed.

The two talked about some things and set the tone for some things to come.

Lin Jingyu has been in the limelight these days.

Naturally, it attracted the attention of those with ulterior motives.

Gao Roumei was the most furious.

She was jealous of her rise to prominence in Xiangdu and disappointed that Wen Lechun did not appear this time.

Gao Roumei, who had been waiting for him, was extremely disappointed.

She paid an incredibly heavy price to stay in Xiangdu temporarily, all for the purpose of completing her plan.

Unfortunately, Wen Lechun was uncooperative, leaving her temporarily at a loss.

She dared not chase him to the capital, and could only wait for him to return to Xiangdu.

If she fails to conceive a child for the Wen family by next year at the latest, she will face being sent back for trial.

For her own safety, she dared not do anything underhanded again.

He watched helplessly as Lin Jingyu left Xiangdu once again.

"Jingyu!"

A familiar voice called out.

Lin Jingyu, who had just gotten off the train, looked up upon hearing the sound.

She was stunned when she saw the person in the green military uniform.

"Jingyu!"

Wen Lechun strode over, flashing a bright white smile, and said happily, "I've come to take you home."
