"Uncle Zhong, come, come, come, sit down quickly..."

“…”

"Uncle Zhong, there are no outsiders here. It's very safe. Don't worry..."

“…”

"Uncle Zhong, this is the West Lake Longjing tea I brewed myself. Although it's a little broken, the texture is not bad and the taste is very pure. Come, take a sip and taste it. Sir, you should sit down and taste it with us. You don't have to stand like this all the time..."

“…”

It's very hot in the house.

Even after turning on the air conditioner, Zhong Cheng still felt waves of heat coming.

He took off his mask, hat and coat, but he still felt stuffy.

He subconsciously looked up at the air conditioner.

The air conditioner is of Senger brand.

Judging from the appearance of the outer shell, this air conditioner should be quite old.

Zhong Cheng was really surprised by where Lu Yuan lived.

The surrounding furnishings were simple, so simple that they were no different from where ordinary people lived.

This place is really...

never mind.

Zhong Cheng didn't want to comment on anything.

However, Lu Yuan seemed very enthusiastic and respectful at the same time, as if he saw an elder. His face was full of smiles and respect, and he lowered his head slightly from time to time, looking humble.

This was very useful to him.

Didn’t you expect that your status in Lu Yuan’s heart would be so high?

But it is also normal. When he was active in the entertainment industry, Lu Yuan was still a primary school student. Moreover, he was very successful at that time. In the eyes of these young people, he was basically a top figure.

Even if he really admires me, there's nothing strange about it, right?

As for Xiao Zhang, his brows were getting deeper and deeper.

The more enthusiastic Lu Yuan was, the more uneasy and uncomfortable he felt. Although there was no one in the room, Xiao Zhang felt as if there were eyes staring at him from all directions.

He felt very scared.

Even though he was sitting in the chair, he still felt uncomfortable.

"Uncle Zhong, let's get straight to the point. How exactly are we going to cooperate? You tell me, and I'm listening."

"Haha, don't worry, take your time... By the way, Xiao Lu, your tea is pretty good, and the taste is very unique."

"Yes, I really like the light taste of this tea. Come on, Uncle Zhong, have another sip and I'll fill it up for you."

"Hahaha, OK, OK!" Zhong Cheng laughed. "Xiao Zhang, don't sit still. Come and have some tea with me."

"Okay." Xiao Zhang nodded and sat down, but he looked a little nervous when he picked up the cup. After seeing Lu Yuan pouring tea for him personally, he was not flattered, but trembling with fear, "Thank you, Mr. Lu."

"You're welcome. Enjoy your drink."

Lu Yuan looked at the somewhat uneasy Xiao Zhang. He seemed calm on the surface, but he was slightly wary in his heart.

This Xiao Zhang had always been with Shen Lianjie, and was Shen Lianjie's assistant, but today he followed Zhong Cheng to talk to him about cooperation...

What does this mean?

Haha, it seems that the changes in "Dream Traveler" this time were indeed a long-planned event.

But that's okay.

The more secrets you know, the more bargaining chips you have.

"Xiao Lu, what are your plans for the future?"

"In the future, I want to make some movies..." Lu Yuan met Zhong Cheng's gaze and nodded seriously.

"You are very ambitious." Zhong Cheng suddenly stared at Lu Yuan, his eyes suddenly sharp.

"No, no, no, I don't have any ambitions." Lu Yuan's face seemed to change slightly, and he quickly shook his head to cover it up, as if he was seen through.

"Xiao Lu, since I can come here today, you don't have to hide many things in front of me. It's a good thing for young people to be ambitious. I was also very ambitious when I was young..." After seeing Lu Yuan's expression, Zhong Cheng felt that he had completely taken control of the initiative. He felt that he had even completely suppressed Lu Yuan in terms of momentum.

"Ambition, this... I do have a little ambition... I didn't expect that you, Uncle Zhong, could see through it."

"Haha, of course. After all, I am so much older than you. To exaggerate, I have walked across more bridges than you have walked on roads... Just now, your eyes told me that you are definitely ambitious."

"Hey, hey, Uncle Zhong is truly a god..." Lu Yuan was full of admiration, his eyes revealing a look of worship.

The actor's skills are not simple.

"Hahaha."

Zhong Cheng smiled proudly.

"That Uncle Zhong... the recent changes in Dream Traveler..."

"Haha, Xiao Lu, you're not going to record this, are you?" Zhong Cheng suddenly stared at Lu Yuan.

The originally relaxed and joyful atmosphere suddenly froze at this moment.

Xiao Zhang stared at Lu Yuan's expression.

He wanted to see any different expression on Lu Yuan's face.

but……

"Uncle Zhong, what do you mean? Don't you believe me?" Lu Yuan stared and stood up.

He narrowed his eyes.

There was unhappiness in his voice, and it seemed that the respect he had just shown was completely gone.

"Haha, that's not what I meant, I was just joking!"

"Uncle Zhong, although I respect you very much, this is not the way to joke. This is my phone. I put it here. And this pen. This pen is not a recorder! Uncle Zhong, since you think I will cheat you, then I think we don't need to continue chatting."

Lu Yuan's expression was extremely cold, and then his eyes became extremely sharp.

It seems that he is not as polite as before.

"No, no, no, you misunderstood. I was just joking. Young people shouldn't be so angry. Haha, you are right. The recent events of Dream Traveler were indeed caused by me..." Zhong Cheng still shook his head with a smile on his face after seeing Lu Yuan's intense reaction.

He glanced at Xiao Zhang out of the corner of his eye.

Are you relieved now?

Xiao Zhang nodded.

He felt a little relieved.

Lu Yuan's sudden expression certainly didn't seem like he was plotting against Zhong Cheng.

"Uncle Zhong... I am very sincere. Some jokes can be made, but some jokes cannot be made. Besides, it was you who asked me to cooperate, not me who asked you..." Lu Yuan sat down, but his expression gradually became cold.

"I am sincere too." After seeing the series of changes in Lu Yuan's expression, Zhong Cheng also became serious.

"Forget it, Uncle Zhong, let's continue to talk about cooperation..."

"good……"

…

A few hours passed quickly.

The sun rose to mid-air.

Inside the house.

"It's a pleasure to work with you, Mr. Lu."

"Uncle Zhong, it's a pleasure to work with you."

"Haha, after this incident is over, come visit Joaquin more often. I will treat you with the best things."

"Yes, of course, of course! By the way, Uncle Zhong, how about staying for lunch together?"

"No, no, time is tight, there are still many things to deal with, and there will be a formal meeting tomorrow afternoon."

"Well, well, in that case I won't keep you here."

"There is ample time."

"Yes, there is still a long way to go."

Zhong Cheng wrapped himself in clothes that looked like a dumpling again and turned to leave.

Lu Yuan saw Zhong Cheng off from the house.

The enthusiastic, cheerful expression returned to his face.

After looking at Zhong Cheng's back, Lu Yuan's smile deepened.

Zhong Cheng is an old fox. No matter how Lu Yuan hints, he will not sign any paper documents.

Many things are verbal agreements.

Of course this is normal.

Many things become evidence once signed, and no one will sign them.

However, whether to sign or not actually has little impact on Lu Yuan.

There are enough chips.

Lu Yuan noticed that Xiao Zhang next to Zhong Cheng had a serious expression.

From the beginning to the end, he seemed to be more and more alert, looking here and there from time to time, and even looking in the direction of the camera several times.

He is very sharp.

but.

Zhou Shuai is no pushover either. He hid seven or eight cameras in very secret locations so that no one can find them.

He is indeed a talented paparazzi.

At this moment, Lu Yuan felt sincere admiration from the bottom of his heart.

"Boss Lu, I didn't expect this person to be so unscrupulous in order to achieve his goal!"

Not long after Zhong Cheng left, Wu Tingting walked out from the inner room and looked into the distance with complicated eyes.

"Yes, the waters in big companies are naturally very deep."

"Mr. Lu, do you really want to cooperate with this kind of person?" Wu Tingting was silent for a while, then looked at Lu Yuan.

"What do you think?"

"Won't."

"Isn't that good?"

He knew that someone like Zhong Cheng was definitely a dangerous person.

Zhong Cheng is definitely a villain who does things behind the scenes.

He may secretly do trouble for Joaquin today and stab him in the back, but he may stab himself in the back tomorrow.

Compared to Zhong Cheng, Lu Yuan thinks Shen Lianjie is okay.

after all……

This person didn't do anything tricky. Everyone played based on their strength, and...

Most of the time, I am the one bullying him?

Guilt, guilt.

"Mr. Lu, what are you doing..." Wu Tingting looked at Lu Yuan in confusion.

Lu Yuan bent down and took out seven or eight cameras from various hidden places.

In a sense, Lu Yuan did not lie to Zhong Cheng.

Lu Yuan did not record the video.

After all, the camera has a built-in recording function, so why would he go to the trouble of getting a recording device?

After taking out all the cameras, Lu Yuan went back to the house and connected them to his computer.

He held his chin up, stared at the video that captured all angles, and nodded with satisfaction.

"Wu Tingting..."

"Um?"

"Can you contact Mr. Xu, the current executive manager of Joaquin?"

"Mr. Xu?"

"yes."

"I can contact..." When talking about Mr. Xu, Wu Tingting's eyes became a little complicated.

"Oh, then give me her number. I think it would be better to contact her in person in the evening..."

"Mr. Lu, you...you mean..." After seeing Lu Yuan's expression, Wu Tingting was shocked.

"Haha, you see it but don't say it out loud." Lu Yuan laughed.

It seems that he has hidden his achievements and fame.

…

evening.

Xu Cancan returned to the office tiredly.

She has a headache.

Yes.

A meeting was held today, and the senior people present were quite aggressive.

Shen Lianjie was even scolded like a big sinner.

Many senior colleagues talked about Shen Lianjie’s previous box office performance and the exposure of this crew.

The lunch box incident could have been a big deal or a small one, but judging by the current situation, if Shen Lianjie is not replaced by Zhong Cheng, these people will definitely not let it go.

Xu Cancan naturally did not express her opinion and simply supported Shen Lianjie.

She couldn't let down her momentum, and she was trying to delay time in order to find a flaw in Zhao Zhongcheng.

Although……

Xu Cancan knew that Zhong Cheng was an old fox and he did everything perfectly.

So, what should we do next?

"Dream Traveler" can't be suspended forever like this, right?

We must find some evidence of arriving early.

Otherwise the situation will get worse and worse.

Just at this moment.

There was a knock on the office door.

"Come in!"

"Mr. Xu..."

"What's wrong?"

"I heard about today's meeting. Mr. Xu, I'm sorry... I..."

"This matter is none of your business. You'd better focus on the movie and avoid any problems during the filming."

"I...I understand...but I...can I still make this movie?"

"Yes, if I tell you to take pictures, you can take pictures!" Xu Cancan looked at Shen Lianjie.

"Boss Xu... I also heard that some shareholders have started to complain... Especially Boss Li, who lost his temper at the meeting..."

"It's no use complaining. I'm the company's largest shareholder... They can't suppress me for now."

"..." Shen Lianjie was silent.

"Just make your movie well. The company is betting all its money on you. If this movie becomes a hit, then all the perseverance will be worth it. Do you understand?"

"I see."

"By the way, is there anything else?"

"That's all. Mr. Xu, what are you going to do next..."

"Go out, I have my own arrangements next."

"Yeah, okay."

Shen Lianjie nodded, turned and left the office.

But he still looked worried.

Xu Cancan closed her eyes.

She planned to start with the boss of the lunch group...

She had to find a way to get that man to tell the truth.

Just at this moment, her cell phone rang. After she looked at the phone number, her expression froze.

His expression was no longer as cold as before.
