“It’s already released.” Liu Yao flirtatiously rolled her eyes and took a sip of tea. “Three days ago, I was still attending the premiere in Wanghai. According to the response from the theaters, the box office did quite well on the first day and was ranked first among the movies released in the same period. Now all the cinemas have begun to increase the placement rate. If nothing goes wrong, the box office should go over one billion without a problem.”
“One billion?” Jiang Chen was shocked. “Emotion is too valuable.”
“Hey, what! I worked very hard!” Liu Yao was displeased. “You should praise me more. Also, you didn’t go watch the movie with me this time and the time before…”
While finishing her sentence, Liu Yao suddenly blushed and her voice became quieter and quieter.
She suddenly remembered that Jiang Chen always watched a “pre-screening” with her at home before she went to the cinema with him, and they seemed to always use a special position during the movie…
“Would you like to… Watch the movie together?” Jiang Chen was grinning.
“Screw you!”
Liu Yao “slammed” her fist on Jiang Chen’s chest, but she didn’t refuse…
The crew obviously brought the film source to attend the Yoto premiere. Jiang Chen called Ning Huajian, who was promoted to the CEO of Future Technology, and the digital version of the film source was quickly sent to him.
It wasn’t favored by capital, and they didn’t have a big-name director. Naturally, they didn’t have the audacity to refuse a request from the largest investor.
Jiang Chen told Qian Xia to go back to university then he returned inside with Liu Yao.
The lavish mansion was equipped with a home theater. Pulling out the data cable to connect his watch to the home theater, he loaded the digital version of the film source onto the device. Liu Yao already brought two bottles of red wine from the refrigerator.
The bottles were popped open. Jiang Chen sat next to Liu Yao, and the trademarks appeared on the screen.
The film officially began!
To be honest, the development of Hua science fiction films was extremely difficult and not necessarily the fault of the directors. The biggest hurdle was special effects. While poor special effects could work in Xianxia or fantasy, it mattered greatly in producing realistic science fiction films.
Fortunately, Future Technology solved this problem. All the special effects were outsourced to Virtual Animation, the subsidiary of Future Technology. In order to ensure that this investment of nearly 200 million didn’t go down the drain, Virtual Animation also sent two specialists to Wanghai to assist in the filming.
A piece above average!
At the end of the movie, Jiang Chen rated this film.
After drinking the last drop of red wine, he took a sigh of relief, picked up the remote control and turned off the movie. He then picked up Liu Yao, who was already melted on the sofa, and walked into the bedroom.
They watched the film for so long and even he was feeling tired, let alone Liu Yao who must be drained.
Well, they were just watching the movie and didn’t do anything like last time. Don’t think too much.
A warm tenderness was between his arms. A faint panting echoed beside his ears mixed with a hint of sweetness.
“So naughty…”
There was a complaint as faint as a mosquito then his ear was bitten by her teeth.
It didn’t hurt, but it was very seductive.
Jiang Chen smirked and slapped her curvy figure.
“Now, do you believe I missed you?”
“…I believe you.” Liu Yao pouted while admitting her defeat, but the sweetness on her lips couldn’t be hidden.
Jiang Chen turned her over and tucked her in.
“Rest for a bit.”
After giving her a kiss on the forehead, Jiang Chen left the bedroom.
After Qian Xia went to class, no one else was in the mansion, so he tidied the things in the living room and tossed the empty bottles into the recycling in the kitchen.
After he just cleaned up, he heard Liu Yao’s scream from the bedroom. It didn’t take long before she ran out in a hurry with her hair all messy.
“I’m so screwed! I have to be at the premiere at night! How did I forget about this?! No, the agent called me already.” She rushed into the bathroom and carefully examined to see if there were any strange marks on her face.
There would be a lot of reporters. If they spotted a hickey, it would be extremely embarrassing
When she ran out of the bedroom, she only had time to put on a T-shirt. Jiang Chen stared at her two long legs and the looming mysterious field. He felt the desires that just dissipated gradually reappearing again.
“Agent? Is it a man or a woman?” Jiang Chen walked behind Liu Yao, grabbed her slim waist, and smiled.
“You bad guy. Of course it’s a woman. It’s my best friend from university, a girl who graduated three years later than me.” Liu Yao felt something terrifying against her. She blushed and looked at him in fear. “Umm, she’s already on her way. Can you… can you wait until the premiere is over…”
Although there were some regrets, Jiang Chen also knew the limits and didn’t insist. After teasing her for a bit longer, he let her go. There was still a negotiation in the afternoon that required some preparation.
After Liu Yao dressed up, she appeared in a light blue dress and the pure and dignified Liu Yao reappeared in front of him.
At about the same time, a black car stopped in front of Jiang Chen and was stopped by two Celestial Trade bodyguards.
Just when Chen Yuqing was anxious and didn’t know what to do, the door opened and a man and a woman came out. The woman was naturally Liu Yao, and she was holding onto Jiang Chen.
“Yao, you finally came out.” Chen Yuqing grabbed Liu Yao’s hand. “The crew didn’t see you and they’re worried as hell. Why didn’t you tell me you were leaving?”
The girl with curly hair looked young. Although she was fashionable, it was easy to tell she just left university from her actions and words.
“Sorry for worrying you.” Liu Yao scratched her face in embarrassment.
How could she tell her about meeting her lover?
The next second, Chen Yuqing focused on Jiang Chen, and her eyes instantly widened.
“You… are you Jiang Chen?”
“Guaranteed to be authentic.” Jiang Chen smiled and nodded.
Chen Yuqing nodded in a stunned state, lowered her head and whispered, “I thought Yao was joking last time. The rumors are true.”
Jiang Chen smiled. “Can you please help Yao keep it a secret?”
Chen Yuqing nodded hard. “Of course! I’m her agent. I still have professional ethics!”
After that, Chen Yuqing looked at Liu Yao with some objections.
“You have to be careful. The place is so openif there are any reporters…”
“The reporters can’t follow me,” Jiang Chen said half-jokingly. “Didn’t you see? The two cars that followed you turned around.”
With his status, it was too easy to pick on ordinary people. No one would make jokes about their own lives. Naturally, there would be reporters who pointed their cameras at private occasions.
Chen Yuqing looked at the street behind her in surprise but saw nothing.
Obviously, the new agent didn’t realize she was followed after leaving the crew.
Jiang Chen was worried about Liu Yao and whether such a rash agent would be good or bad for her acting career.
Holding Jiang Chen’s arm, Liu Yao tipped her toes and kissed him on the cheek.
“Can you go to the premiere with me?”
“What time is it?” Jiang Chen asked.
“Eight! At the entrance of the Piccadilly Cinema in Shinjuku!” Liu Yao said excitedly.
“Eight?” Jiang Chen looked at his watch. It was only ten o’clock in the morning. “Shouldn’t be a problem. I should be able to take care of everything.”
“Mhmm! I love you the most!” Liu Yao held Jiang Chen with joy and kissed him on the face. “You must come. I’ll dress up for you.”
Jiang Chen patted her on her butt and let go of Liu Yao, who wanted to hit back.
After teasing her, Liu Yao bid farewell then reluctantly turned around and sat in the car with Chen Yuqing.
Watching the car leave, Jiang Chen lifted his watch out of habit. He looked at the time and said to himself, “I should probably get going too.”
