Chapter 585: Before Provoking Ying Zijin, Consider the Consequences [1 more]
Before Claire could react, a group of people followed the female secretary.
It was Shang Yaozhi, his agent, and a dozen employees of Chuguang Media.
Claire's smile froze instantly, and her eyes widened: "How did you get in?"
Moreover, there are so many people coming?
"Didn't our boss say that? We don't need to meet in the same profession. We can meet at the door." The female secretary waved again, smiling even more. "We'll go in first. See you at the opening ceremony the day after tomorrow."
After a pause, she continued, "I sincerely hope Mr. Claire doesn't have any evil intentions. Whoever the prize belongs to is the winner."
Before you mess with their boss, you should consider the consequences.
This is the inner field. Oriental faces are extremely rare. Those who come in are either rich or noble, and are all members of the upper-class families in Continent O.
The female secretary and her group attracted a lot of people's attention.
Watching the female secretary and Shang Yaozhi enter without any hindrance, Claire felt a little frightened and vaguely uneasy.
Could it be that Chuguang Media really has some backing in Continent O?
Otherwise, how could dozens of people get in at once?
Claire suddenly thought of the sign he had just seen and looked over again.
But at this time the car had already driven away, leaving only a trail of exhaust gas.
After all, Claire is only the president of Times Media. He knows far less than Dina about the situation in the entire Continent of O.
He turned his head and opened his mouth: "Ms. Dina, they came in a car owned by the Laurent family."
When Dina heard this, she frowned instantly: "Did you see it clearly?"
How did the Laurent family get involved with a Chinese entertainment company?
The most recent relationship is that Xie Manyu filmed a movie for Universal Pictures.
But there are so many actors who have filmed panorama movies. Can the Laurent family specially allocate a car for them?
When asked this question, Claire was unsure again: "It seems... not."
Dinah was cautious and she quickly called the Patsy family to inquire about the matter.
The result is that none of the current powerful members of the Laurent family have any connections with China.
They thoroughly checked Ying Zijin's information.
Ying Zijin had been to O Continent several times, but had absolutely no contact with the Laurent family.
Dina hung up the phone and said coldly: "You are mistaken, go in first, it is possible that Huanying gave them the tickets, after all, they have cooperated before."
Claire didn't dare say anything more and followed Dina.
Dina also wanted to resolve the issue of the Academy Awards as soon as possible.
The Pazzi family has been in turmoil recently due to the news that Devil, the No. 1 killer, has reappeared, and some people are in a state of panic.
The elders have held several meetings and are discussing this matter seriously.
The death of an elder was not a big deal for the Pazzi family, but it was a loss of face, which no one could tolerate.
Once she wins the Academy Award, she will return to the family completely.
Compared with interests, power is of course more important.

Ying Zijin did not go to the film festival, but she asked her female secretary to bring her some snacks from the festival.
She left the hotel and took the intercity train to Florence. After taking a walk along the Rhine River, she went to Florence's international airport to pick up Fu Yunshen.
The man was wearing a mask, but his perfect figure still attracted a lot of attention.
Fortunately, this is Continent O, far away from China, so they don't have to disguise themselves too much.
Fu Yunshen slowly took the teacup pig out of his pocket and placed it on the girl's palm: "Yaoyao, your pig."
Ying Zijin poked the baby's pink belly and found that it felt different. She thought, "It seems to have gotten fatter."
"If a pig doesn't get fat, it's no longer a pig."
“…”
In the past month or so, Dudu has been eating and sleeping comfortably under Fu Yunshen's care.
It hummed happily a few times and snuggled into the girl's arms.
Before he could get in, he was picked up by a slender hand.
Fu Yunshen put it on his shoulder: "Don't bully your mother, you've gained weight and are too heavy."
Dudu: “…”
Its family status plummeted.
The two walked out of the airport and the car was already parked.
It was sent by Venus Group.
Black, low-key and luxurious.
"You have to attend the opening ceremony tomorrow. It's your first time attending such a big ceremony, so you can't keep it simple." Fu Yunshen touched her head, his peach blossom eyes curved, "I've ordered jewelry and a dress for you, want to go and take a look?"
Ying Zijin nodded: "Have you finished taking the medicine I made for you?"
"Yeah." Fu Yunshen said lazily, "I have been practicing ancient martial arts for 170 years. Thank you, girlfriend."
Hearing this number, Ying Zijin's eyes trembled slightly.
After the hidden injuries in his body were completely healed, his cultivation speed increased exponentially.
This speed is truly incomparable and has already surpassed the ranks of ancient martial arts geniuses.
Ying Zijin tilted her head and looked at the man's face.
The slightly intoxicating sunlight dyed his eyebrows and eyes a light golden color, making him as handsome as a god.
That familiar feeling came to me again.
Fu Yunshen naturally noticed it: "What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like this suddenly?"
Ying Zijin retracted his gaze and yawned: "Well, you look good, let me look at you more."
Very flat tone, without ups and downs.
If Fu Yunshen hadn't been used to Ying Zijin's way of speaking, he would have thought she was playing with him.
"Flirting with me again? Huh?" He raised his eyebrows and pinched her face, "Little friend, after flirting with me, don't worry about other things. Tell me, are you a scumbag?"
Ying Zijin glanced at him and said, "I'm not like that. I won't flirt with you all the time."
"Okay, you have the final say."
Fu Yunshen turned the steering wheel and headed for the largest commercial center in Florence.
Compared with China, Venus Group naturally has more industries here in O continent, after all, it started in O continent.
GY.
It is a jewelry brand and an internationally renowned luxury brand under the Venus Group.
The two entered the store.
Among the many counters, Ying Zijin saw a set of jewelry at a glance.
Necklaces, bracelets, rings and crowns are all available.
The style of this set of jewelry is obviously the work of Fu Yunshen.
The jewellery he designs has a special aura that is instantly recognisable.
"Miss, please don't look at this set of jewelry." The salesgirl pointed at the brand and smiled, "This is not for sale, it's just for display. Even platinum members in the store won't sell it, but you——"
She looked the girl up and down, her tone somewhat mocking.
The store has the information of platinum members, and none of them are Chinese.
Ninety percent of these platinum members are the daughters and sons of the four major chaebols and the Laurent family. After all, not everyone can spend 50 million yuan a year in the store.
This GY store is only available in Europe, and the physical store has not yet opened in China.
She has seen too many customers who just want to come in and take a look but can't afford to buy anything.
Fu Yunshen took out a card and handed it directly to the manager behind him, saying, "Wrap it up."
When the manager saw the card, his expression changed: "Yes, I'll pack it for you right away."
Soon, this set of items that were not for sale was put into a gift box, and the manager respectfully sent Fu Yunshen and Ying Zijin out.
The salesgirl was still in a daze: "No, you don't sell it?"
The manager turned around and said, "I'm not selling it, but the people from the headquarters are coming to pick it up in person, so how can I not sell it?"
The salesgirl was even more stunned: "Headquarters?"
The manager also wiped his sweat: "Yes, it's not the GY headquarters, it's the Venus Group."
If Fu Yunshen hadn't taken out that card, he would definitely not have paid much attention to him.
O continent has never paid attention to news from the Asia-Pacific region. The manager only found out after checking that Fu Yunshen is the president of the Asia-Pacific region, which means he is the manager.
But as the president of the Asia-Pacific region, he does not have much real power in the entire Venus Group. Why does he have a card from the O continent headquarters?
The manager was a little confused.
**
Outside the mall.
In the car.
Fu Yunshen opened the jewelry box: "This set is called 'Peach Blossoms'."
There are indeed peach blossom decorations on the jewelry.
Ying Zijin nodded: "What's the name of your Weibo account?"
Later, she went to the super topic of the Divine Medicine Couple and found that Fu Yunshen’s account was obviously a frequent visitor in the super topic, and many people knew him.
"Hmm?" Fu Yunshen put the bracelet on her and picked up the necklace. "No, I changed my name."
"What did it change to?"
"Yaoyao's principal wife."
“…”
Fu Yunshen raised his eyelids and said, "Then I was chased and beaten by your little fans."
"Not the principal wife." Ying Zijin propped up her head and raised her eyebrows. "You are the only one. You can change it more boldly."
Fu Yunshen lowered his head and then put the necklace on her.
His fingertips brushed across her skin, leaving a trail of heat and a tingling sensation.
Her pair of peach blossom eyes were extremely alluring; when he looked at her, his amber pupils glowed dimly, like the starry sky and the sea.
Ying Zijin turned her head away and didn't look at him: "Scumbag."
Fu Yunshen: “?”
"Leave it alone."
“…”

The next afternoon.
IFF jury.
Tomorrow is the opening ceremony of the IFF Awards, which is also when the major film awards are announced.
But today, the results of all awards have come out.
The judges handed the documents to David for review.
David is the chief judge of this year's IFF Awards and all awards must be approved by him.
He took the document and the words "New Life" caught his eye.
This movie won at least five awards.
"Is this movie so great?" David frowned. "What about 'Lost Memories'? It should have won an award at least, right?"
In every IFF Award, it is possible for a film to sweep multiple awards at the same time, and all of them have been recorded in the history of world cinema.
David had only seen the foreign films nominated this time once, but "Lost Memories" was shot by Dina. He read it several times.
"Mr. David, 'Lost Memories' is still a little bit inferior to 'The New Life'." A judge said, "The movie 'The New Life' is so shocking. In the movie, the male lead has a three-pointer and his acting skills are perfectly displayed."
“In terms of plot and concept, “New Life” is superior to “Lost Memories”.”
"We think that Lost Memories is a little weaker in terms of filming techniques and other aspects. After all, it is a new director, which is understandable. If it weren't for Freshman, Lost Memories would definitely have won the award."
David's brows furrowed even tighter. "Do you have the original film of 'New Life'? I'll take a look."
The judges immediately pulled up "New Life" from the computer.
After reading it, David fell into a long silence: "It is true that The New Life is better."
But at the festival yesterday, Dinah and Claire said hello to him.
The meaning is obvious.
It is obvious that he is determined to win the Academy Awards.
It's not impossible to do Dinah Pazzi a favor.
After all, after Dina finishes filming this movie, she will return to the Pazzi family, and China will have the opportunity to send more movies over in the future.
There is not that big a gap between "Lost Memories" and "Rebirth", so there is no big problem in changing the award.
In the history of IFF, Chinese films have only been nominated once. This time, they were just nominated but did not win any awards, so the public would not find it strange.
David was holding a pen, and suddenly he seemed to have thought of something. He looked up and asked, "There won't be any movies from Huanying this time, right?"
"There is one." The judge pushed up his glasses. "It's the live-action adaptation of the animated film. Just like before, it's for Best Music and Best Art Direction."
"But the actress's acting was really good, and the Best Actress award went to this movie."
David nodded, understanding.
This time, Huanying did not send a film specifically to compete for the Best Film Award.
This is good news.
Otherwise, offending the Laurent family for the sake of the Pazzi family would be more trouble than gain.
After all, the IFF award was proposed by the Laurent family.
The Laurent family has a long-standing hobby of supporting literary and artistic masters, so it makes sense to hold a film festival.
David thought about it and made a decision.
He decisively crossed out "The New Life" from the Best Film Award and wrote "Lost Memories" in its place.
After hesitating for a while, David crossed out Shang Yaozhi's name from the Best Actor category.
I suddenly caught a cold, and then one night I dreamed that I was asking my classmates for Jinshengzi throat lozenges? In the end, I didn't get any. :)
