After the second season of "Chinese Horror" premiered, its popularity remained high, but its rival "Foreign Horror" has already begun to suppress its popularity.
Of course, Lin Xiaoxiao didn't care, because the profit sharing from the contract tied NEX's interests to "Chinese Horror," which was practically an internal power struggle.
However, to Lin Xiaoxiao's surprise, the TV series "Chinese Horror," which was released overseas, generated even more buzz in China.
Upon closer inspection, Lin Xiaoxiao discovered that the donation included the return of calligraphy, paintings, porcelain, and cultural relics.
No, what does this have to do with "Chinese Horror"?!
"Mr. Lin, the people from the TV station said they will bring some people to the island to visit Feiyang Entertainment the day after tomorrow."
Lin Xiaoxiao was a little confused. Why did they come all this way?
Who are they?
Secretary Zhao replied, "The other party did not disclose it, but the people at the TV station said it was a good thing."
Lin Xiaoxiao never expected that this so-called "good thing" was not on the same level as the good thing she had imagined.
"What? Land reclamation?!"
The people brought by the TV station turned out to be government officials. "An international treaty has just been passed that allows land reclamation. Our people have also conducted an investigation. According to the international convention, the distance that can be used for land reclamation can be merged into one island, Penglai Island and the two adjacent small islands."
Lin Xiaoxiao's mouth was agape, and her brain had completely shut down.
No, she's just a TV drama actress. She rented three islands for filming, and now those three islands can be combined into one big island?!
Fortunately, the official staff explained to her that after "Chinese Horror" was broadcast overseas, many cultural relics and collections were returned.
Lin Xiaoxiao was bewildered. Could it really be like this?!
Foreigners didn't understand the horror of these things before. After the popularity of "Chinese Horror" increased, many of the paintings and calligraphy related to the first season were returned, and some private collectors even returned them free of charge.
"No, they're worried that the drawing paper will suddenly turn into human skin, and then they'll be skinned alive?!"
Lin Xiaoxiao found it somewhat absurd. Firstly, this was just a scene from a horror movie and couldn't possibly happen in reality. Secondly, they'd been taking it for so many years; why were they only worrying about being skinned alive now?
"Yes, we also find it incredible, but recently many of the returned items are calligraphy and paintings, mostly figure paintings, and the people who returned them even wrapped them in a box, as if they were offering them as a sacrifice. After handing them over, they all went to the dojo, for fear of getting contaminated. After the second season of the blue and white porcelain exhibition, more porcelain items were returned. Mr. Lin, you deserve a lot of credit for the return of these cultural relics! So the higher-ups thought that you rented three islands, and it would be easier to develop them together later."
Lin Xiaoxiao then remembered that in the first season, it was indeed because the male lead's friend accidentally vomited on the painting during a visit that the vengeful ghost in the painting was skinned alive.
No way, she got these foreigners to return cultural relics with just one drama?! Is that even possible?!
How did my film company, which I initially planned to pack up and run away with, end up growing bigger and bigger?!
The thought of blue and white porcelain made her shudder. In the second season of "Chinese Horror," the blue and white porcelain was stained with children's blood and began a killing spree. Even foreign police stations couldn't suppress it. Everyone was chopped off and placed in a blue and white porcelain vase, with only their head sticking out. They bled to death.
Thinking about the third installment of Bronze Sword currently being filmed, Lin Xiaoxiao really didn't expect that the most effective form of cultural reverse export would be horror films.
"The country is ready to import 'Chinese Horror,' but many scenes may need to be re-processed. Congratulations in advance to Mr. Lin."
If the TV station executive said that, it must be true. Lin Xiaoxiao could only smile wryly. She only wanted to use up the Lin family's money, so why did it feel like she was making a profit?!
The rent will be higher after the island expands, but Lin Xiaoxiao doesn't need to pay for the land reclamation; she only needs to pay the rent for the extra area.
Lin Xiaoxiao considered how difficult it had been for her to travel between three islands recently, and thus agreed to the plan to merge the three islands into one. Because Penglai Island still had a relatively large number of tourists, the land reclamation would extend from Penglai Second and Third Islands towards the main island.
Lin Xiaoxiao felt that she had seen the world and nothing could move her anymore.
Then she received what Grandpa Lin called a "little surprise".
Secretary Zhao handed the document to Lin Xiaoxiao, "President Lin, this is the appointment letter from the Lin Group."
Lin Xiaoxiao felt that she hadn't seen enough of the world. Old Master Lin had asked her to take charge of the Lin Group's most profitable real estate business.
"Isn't Lin Ruizhe in charge of real estate?"
Secretary Zhao nodded with a slight smile, "Lin Ruizhe has been transferred to the gaming industry."
"Would he be willing to do that?!"
Lin Xiaoxiao knew Lin Ruizhe wouldn't agree without Zhao's reply, because the other party was already impatiently threatening her.
Lin Ruizhe's voice, filled with gritted teeth, came from the other end of the phone, "Lin Xiaoxiao, you're only being put in this position temporarily. You'd better not get too close to Lin Tianyang and those two, otherwise..."
Lin Xiaoxiao was truly amused. "Otherwise what? Can't you come up with something new? Do you think I'm still someone you can easily manipulate? Open your eyes and look around. It's gotten to the point where you're relying on me. Don't be so impulsive, or I'll make sure you get out of here without a single penny."
"That feels so good!" She had wanted to say that for a long time, and she finally got to say it.
"You! Lin Xiaoxiao, you've finally shown your true colors! Your acting has been quite good all these years. You heartless bastard, if I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have let you in!"
Hearing Lin Ruizhe's furious voice, Lin Xiaoxiao couldn't help but smile. Lin Ruizhe's impotent rage was truly delightful.
