James handed in his resignation.

Under the extremely shocked gaze of Paimon's boss Reese, he left Paimon without any hesitation, where he had stayed for nearly ten years.

"Can you tell me why? Are you going to give up the bright future of our company just because of this Chinese guy? Mr. James, we are going to shoot a big movie this year, and, if you are willing, you are the director of this big movie!"

"Freedom, equality, harmony, tolerance... these were the tenets of our company in the past, and they have been good over the years, but recently a series of things have made me feel that something is not right... I am beginning to dislike this place."

"I hope you can understand that a company is a company after all. If we want to survive in Hollywood, we can't be too idealistic about many things. We have to live and eat. This is not friendship, this is business!"

"Mr. Reese, I understand, I know, but thank you for your care over the years, and I wish Pie all the best..."

"where are you going?"

"I don't know... maybe I should take a break for a while."

"I'll wait for you to come back!"

"I'm sorry, I probably won't be back."

“Would you go to any of the other Big Seven companies?”

"I don't know... maybe I'll retire from now on."

“…”

The conversation between James and himself kept flashing in Reese's mind...

During the past six months, he had no idea what went wrong between them.

I don't know when it started, but every time they meet, they would always quarrel because of disagreements, company arrangements, or various trivial differences. When the arguments got intense, they would even slam the table at each other and neither of them would admit defeat.

The quarrels at the beginning of this month are even more intense!

The conflict in ideas made them glare at each other and even said some unpleasant words.

From that moment on, Reese knew that the two of them had almost parted ways.

However, although he understood, he didn't think there was anything wrong.

James is an old man in the company after all.

There will always be a compromise.

Reese originally thought that if James kept quiet for a few days, the matter would gradually calm down.

James did stay quiet for a few days.

However, after a few days of silence, James handed over all subsequent company matters and then submitted his resignation letter.

Reese felt bad after reading the resignation letter. He knew that James had a tough character and once he made a decision, there was no way to pull him back.

He is just a cow.

The cow that can't be pulled back...

"James, I hope you don't go to the other seven companies... otherwise..."

Reese narrowed his eyes.

…

Everything is free in the bar.

In the middle of the dance floor, everyone was singing and shouting crazily.

James drank glass after glass of wine, and seemed a little tired.

Lu Yuan also drank with James, but he didn't like the noisy sounds in the bar.

"Mr. James, why did you suddenly resign?"

"The philosophy is different... Reese has changed."

"What? You were paid less? Your share of the box office was deducted?" The noisy noise made Lu Yuan unable to hear clearly what James was saying, so he asked subconsciously!

"Yes! This is not the world I want. I am not free at all... He has changed. He has completely turned into a coward..."

"Mr. James, we should sue him! How dare you, a big director like you, deduct money!" After seeing James' indignant expression, Lu Yuan nodded.

"Yeah, bastard, he went against the company's purpose, everything is his fault!" James took a big gulp, very angry.

"Lawyer? I don't know any lawyers, but I will help you in any way I can. Believe me, you can do it. Lawyer, I'll call someone in my company and ask her if she knows any lawyers..." Lu Yuan nodded and also showed a hint of anger.

"I understand... I know what you're thinking, and I know you're unwilling to accept this... But you're too weak, really... It's not easy for you to survive in Hollywood. After all, you're not an American, and you don't want to seek protection from any company..."

"What? Weak? Mr. James, you are not weak, believe me! I don't believe he can cover the sky with one hand, don't worry! We will take back what belongs to us!"

"Yes! What are your plans for our own things?"

"Ah? Me? James, we are friends. I will definitely stand by you. You don't have to be afraid! We are right. This is what we deserve. We will keep suing them and expose their evil deeds to the world!"

"Do you want to regroup?"

"Yes! We have nothing to be afraid of. I believe you!"

"I plan to take a break for a few months. Several other companies are also looking for me..." James' mind flashed with the companies he had contacted in the past few days, and he seemed to be lost in thought.

"Well... I'll ask a lawyer for you when I get out... We... don't have to worry!" Lu Yuan patted James' shoulder and smiled seriously.

"I... need to think about it... you're too crazy..."

"Believe me……"

"I know."

There was a crazy rock sound coming from the distance of the bar.

The two were drinking and talking.

But no one knew that the two were talking at cross purposes.

The two could only judge what they said from each other's expressions...

As he spoke, Lu Yuan became a little confused. He didn't know what he was talking about. In short, it seemed that he had been encouraging James and supporting James in collecting the debt!

James looked at Lu Yuan's fearless look, saying there was nothing to worry about and he was fearless, and suddenly felt confused.

In fact, James didn't hear a word of what was said.

But believe me, he heard the last sentence clearly.

He looked at Lu Yuan, who had a sincere and serious expression on his face.

He hesitated slightly.

Suddenly, an inexplicable flame arose in my heart, and then the flame gradually went out.

He was silent.

He remained silent, and Lu Yuan thought he was weighing the pros and cons, so he also drank without saying a word.

Half an hour later.

As he drank more and more, Lu Yuan became completely drunk.

He followed James and they left the bar arm in arm.

After sending James to the car, Lu Yuan did not get in the car, but took out his mobile phone and looked for the number in confusion...

"Jin...Jinxue...is she asleep? Cough...vomit..."

"How much did you drink?"

"No...I didn't drink much...I...Do you know any lawyers or anything?"

"What? What's wrong with you? Did something happen in the United States?" The voice on the other end of the phone suddenly became anxious.

"No...it's okay, I just...asked..."

"Where are you? Which street? Find a hotel and have a good sleep first..."

"No, no... I'm asking you, is there a lawyer? Mr. James needs one... huh? James? Hey, where's Mr. James? Wait, I think I sent him to the car?"

"Lu Yuan, do you have a place to stay nearby? Go find a hotel and lie down first. I'll fly over right away! Where's Forrest? Isn't Forrest by your side at this time?"

"Yes, Forrest... When you ask the lawyer to come over, find Forrest... I might need to lie down for a while... I'll call Forrest, my phone seems to be running out of battery... What's making so much noise over there, huh? It seems like there's a concert? I'll go check it out..."

“…”

…

"Oh my god, what's wrong with your security measures? How could a drunk guy run backstage?"

"Do you security guards eat shit? Take him away now! He's about to go on stage!"

"Oh my god, he vomited all over me..."

"Max, you bastard, don't you see this drunkard..."

"Wait... why does this person look... familiar?"

"Ah? It's Lu Yuan? Oh my god, why is it Lu Yuan? This...?"

"Wait, you are Mr. Lu Yuan? Oh my God, it really is you, Mr. Lu Yuan, you..."

"Mr. Lu Yuan, are you okay?"

"ah?"

Backstage.

The lighting is a little dim.

Lu Yuan was a little confused.

He looked at the dazed man in front of him in confusion.

He felt that this person was somewhat familiar.

He scratched his head...

But he couldn't remember it for a moment.

After a few minutes, Lu Yuan seemed to be in a daze.

"Are you Captain William? Haha, it turns out it's your concert. No wonder that song "THE FOX" sounded familiar to me. By the way, the staff said that the ticket I bought was fake... and asked me to leave quickly. I couldn't find the direction... and it was so lively downstairs... Hey, I didn't expect to find the backstage..." Lu Yuan looked at the concert ticket he took out of his pocket and immediately smiled embarrassedly.

"Mr. Lu Yuan, you... I'll give you a VIP ticket... I'm about to go on stage, I have to change my clothes quickly... You vomited all over me, why didn't you tell me in advance when you came? Your surprise is almost turning into a shock."

"Are you going to go on stage?"

"Yes... Mr. Lu Yuan, are you interested in going on stage and playing?" Captain William looked at Lu Yuan, and then an idea suddenly came to him.

"ah?"

…

An hour later.

When Forrest received Lu Yuan's call, he hurried over.

The promised place was empty.

He quickly called Lu Yuan.

But the phone remained switched off.

Forrest was speechless.

Where has my boss gone?

At this time, his cell phone rang, but the number was from someone else...

"Hello?"

"Is it Forrest?"

"Ah... it's the boss lady... hello, boss lady..."

"Where is Lu Yuan?"

"I don't know where he is..."

“…”

"What on earth is Lu Yuan doing today? Don't hide anything on the phone!"

"Oh, the boss asked Director James to have a drink at the bar... and then..."

"Director James? At the bar?"

"Yes! I heard that Director James seems to have resigned... I think the boss might be trying to win over Mr. James..."

"By the way, Forrest, I'm about to board a plane. Lu Yuan said on the phone that there's a concert nearby. I might be going there. You should go over and take a look!"

"good……"

After hanging up the phone, Forrest subconsciously heard the noise in the distance, and then walked towards the distance.

About twenty minutes later, he heard screams and roars coming from the central gymnasium in the distance...

One after another...

He subconsciously approached inside.

Then he saw scalpers peddling unsold tickets…

He looked up at the sign above the stage in the distance.

Um……

FOX?

Yes, it’s FOX.

This is a concert of FOX, one of the most famous rock bands in the United States.

The boss...

He doesn't look like the kind of person who would come to a place like this to join in the fun.

Where did the boss go?

"Next... we are honored to invite a world-class, world-class, pianist and famous songwriter, singer, musician, director, poet... Mr. Lu Yuan!"

Um?

After hearing a noise inside, Forrest was startled.

What?

He subconsciously widened his eyes and stared at the huge screen in the distance as if he had seen a ghost.

He saw a man carrying a guitar slowly walking out.

He wiped his eyes, thinking he had seen it wrong.

But when he watched it a second time, he felt that it looked familiar.

This person...

Why does it feel so familiar?

Oh my God!

This, is this a joke?

What did he see?

He seemed to see his boss walking onto the stage with a guitar on his back?

Oh my God!

This is……

What's going on?
