A Billion-Dollar Fortune, Old Factory Street, and a Brawl

Evening, Shunyi Central Villa District, Manor No. 19.

The luxurious living room, with its nine-meter-high ceiling, is brightly lit.

Outside the panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows, the heated swimming pool in the backyard ripples with golden light in the evening breeze.

As soon as Wang Ye pushed open the door, he heard cheerful laughter coming from the kitchen.

The air was filled with the rich aroma of matsutake chicken soup and pan-fried Wagyu beef.

At the entrance, the dignified and elegant Gu Qingcheng, dressed in a dark blue modified cheongsam, came forward and slightly bent her knees to take Wang Ye's coat.

"Chairman, Miss Su and Miss Xu are back from school."

"Miss Liu Ruoxi also rushed over from the apartment this afternoon and is helping to prepare the dishes in the kitchen."

Wang Ye changed into slippers and walked into the living room.

A pale yellow figure suddenly jumped up from the sofa.

Xu An'an was wearing an extremely short, cropped, pure white tank top, the heavy weight of which swayed violently with her jumping.

Below, she wore pink loungewear shorts, revealing her two fair and shapely long legs without any covering.

"Wang Ye!"

Xu An'an pounced into Wang Ye's arms like a koala, wrapping her arms around his neck.

"The courses at Beijing Institute of Fashion Technology are insane! I'm exhausted after a week of classes!"

"Quickly, let me absorb some yang energy to replenish my blood!"

Wang Ye supported her and casually weighed her in his hand.

"You seem to have plenty of yang energy and are full of vitality. You don't look like you're about to break down."

Xu An'an clung to him and refused to get down, her little mouth pouting high.

"Hmph, you heartless bastard! I think about you every day at school, and you actually complain about me being heavy!"

At the dining table, Su Qingyan, dressed in a minimalist beige shirt and jeans, was peeling seedless Shine Muscat grapes.

A gentle smile graced her aloof and ethereal face.

She raised her beautiful eyes, looked at the two playfully bickering, and spoke softly.

"An'an, come down quickly, what kind of behavior is this?"

The kitchen sliding door opened.

Liu Ruoxi came out carrying a plate of freshly sliced ​​premium salmon sashimi.

The ultimate charm of a 30-year-old mature woman is fully displayed at this moment.

She was wearing a bright red, slit spaghetti strap nightgown with a semi-transparent white chiffon cardigan over it.

Wearing a pair of velvet slippers, she walked with a graceful sway.

Liu Ruoxi placed the plate in the center of the long table, her beautiful eyes sweeping over Xu An'an and landing on Wang Ye.

"Your little brother is back?"

Liu Ruoxi walked to Wang Ye's side, reached out and naturally straightened his shirt collar, her red lips slightly parted, her breath as fragrant as orchids.

"I specially had Qingcheng airfreight black truffles and Gillardeau oysters from France today, so you can have a good nourishing meal tonight."

Upon seeing this, Xu An'an immediately slid off Wang Ye warily.

She puffed out her full chest and stood between Liu Ruoxi and Wang Ye, like a little hen protecting her food.

"Sister Ruoxi! Don't give me that!"

"Wang Ye is young and strong; he can eat oysters every day without getting nosebleeds!"

"And why are you staying at our villa again tonight? Your apartment is only about ten kilometers away!"

Liu Ruoxi covered her mouth and chuckled softly, her eyes as gentle as water.

"What you're saying, An'an? I'm the company's image consultant. How can staying in the boss's staff dormitory for a few days be considered 'clinging on'?"

"Besides, some people sleepwalked up to the third floor and knocked on the door the night before last. Does that mean it's within the rules?"

Xu An'an's face instantly turned a deep purplish-red, and she was furious.

"You...you're talking nonsense!"

Su Qingyan gracefully put the peeled grapes into Wang Ye's mouth. Her clear, cool voice wasn't loud, but it instantly suppressed the tense atmosphere in the room.

"Alright, enough talk, let's eat."

Everyone took their seats.

The long dining table was laden with premium Wagyu beef, abalone with black truffles, steamed grouper, and a variety of exquisite side dishes.

Pei Nana and Chu Chu also rushed back from the company and sat around one side.

Wang Ye took a sip of the warm chicken soup and looked around at the stunning beauties around him.

The cast includes the aloof and academically gifted Su Qingyan, the sweet and spicy youthful Xu An'an, the charming and mature Liu Ruoxi, the intellectual and sophisticated Pei Nana, the soft and cute video editor Chu Chu, and the dignified housekeeper Gu Qingcheng.

Both plump and slender beauties displayed their unique charm.

The life of a super-rich person is simple, unpretentious, and boring.

Wang Ye put down his spoon and tapped the glass.

"I have something important to announce."

The women at the table all stopped what they were doing and turned to look at them.

Wang Ye wiped his mouth and spoke calmly.

"Next Tuesday, I'm going on a business trip to Jiangmen, Guangdong."

"The film and television department's new drama 'Raging Storm' has officially entered the on-location shooting stage, and the shooting period will be about two months."

"I'll go over and keep an eye on it."

The moment those words were spoken, the dining table fell silent for three seconds.

Xu An'an was the first to shout, slamming her chopsticks on the table with a clatter.

"Two months?!"

"Going to Guangdong?!"

"Wang Ye, are you crazy! You just started university, don't you have classes?!"

Su Qingyan also put down her knife and fork, her delicate brows furrowed slightly, and concern flashed in her eyes.

"Will Kede College approve such a long leave? What if it affects my studies..."

Wang Ye waved his hand, looking languid.

"The leave slip was processed this afternoon. The counselor personally signed and stamped it, so it's completely legal and compliant."

"And this time, I'm not just going there as an assistant director and supervisor."

Wang Ye raised an eyebrow, a carefree smile spreading across his lips.

"We can't find a suitable actor for the male lead, Gao Qiqiang, in the new drama."

"I, the chairman, will personally take the lead role."

All the women in the room gasped in shock!

The cherry Chu Chu was eating fell directly into the plate, her round almond-shaped eyes widening in surprise.

"Chairman Dong...you're going to be the male lead?!"

Pei Nana's beautiful eyes, behind her gold-rimmed glasses, sparkled as she quickly took notes on her tablet.

"The chairman himself playing the male lead is an absolute bombshell in terms of publicity!"

"As soon as we release the first trailer, our massive account with millions of followers will crash all the servers on the internet!"

Liu Ruoxi leaned forward slightly, her slender hand supporting her cheek, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Wang Ye.

"Is your little brother going to be a big star?"

"Should I ask for your autograph beforehand?"

"But Guangdong is so far away, and the weather there is so hot. I'm worried about my brother going there alone without someone to take care of him."

Xu An'an immediately went on the alarm, grabbing Wang Ye's arm and puffing out her cheeks like a pufferfish.

"I want to go too!"

"I don't care! I want to go to Jiangmen to be a personal assistant too!"

"I'm skipping those lousy classes at Beijing Institute of Fashion Technology. I'm going to carry Wang Ye's bags and order his lunch!"

Wang Ye reached out and flicked her forehead.

"Go where? You've already skipped two months of classes since you started college. Your mom will definitely come all the way from your hometown with a kitchen knife."

"Stay at school and attend classes."

"Whoever performs well is allowed to fly over to visit the set on the weekend."

Upon hearing the words "visiting the set," the women's eyes instantly became meaningful.

Xu An'an rubbed her forehead and bit her lip.

"Then... then when you get there, you have to video chat with me every night to check up on me!"

"You can't flirt with the actresses on set!"

Su Qingyan smiled gently, her eyes filled with tenderness.

"Be careful and take precautions against heatstroke."

Dinner ended amidst the girls' subtle competition and admonitions.

……

Late at night, the manor returned to tranquility.

After washing up, Wang Ye leaned against the large bed in the master bedroom on the third floor and flipped through the storyboard script.

Click.

The door lock was turned very gently.

A stunning figure in a deep V-neck lace nightgown slipped in silently and locked the door behind her.

It was Liu Ruoxi.

The mature, sophisticated woman, barefoot on the carpet, lifted the corner of the blanket and snuggled into Wang Ye's arms.

"My little brother... he'll be gone for two months..."

"Tonight, we'll deliver the grain tax in full before we leave..."

A red lip print.

The night deepened, and the wind and rain intensified.

……

A week passed in the blink of an eye.

With the cooperation of a top Hollywood special effects makeup and styling team, Wang Ye completed three sets of makeup test photos for Gao Qiqiang, covering the early, middle, and late stages.

When the official portrait of the elderly Gao Qiqiang, with his deeply etched wrinkles, slightly graying temples, and eyes as deep as an abyss, was printed out...

All the technical staff at the Future Era base stood up and applauded.

The presence and charisma of this legendary actor completely dispelled everyone's doubts.

September 28th, early morning.

The chartered flight took off from Shunyi Airport and landed smoothly at Zhuhai Jinwan Airport in Guangdong after a flight of more than three hours.

Subsequently, a large convoy consisting of twenty luxury Coaster buses and heavy equipment transport vehicles drove into the old town of Pengjiang District, Jiangmen.

This area preserves a large cluster of arcade buildings that evoke a strong sense of history.

The mottled mosaic exterior walls, the narrow and damp cobblestone streets, the old-fashioned shops lining both sides, and the aroma of salted fish and dried tangerine peel permeating the air.

The everyday life of a coastal town in the 1990s is fully unfolded at this moment.

Next to the Changdi Historical and Cultural District, the film crew rented an abandoned old factory building to build the interior set.

A huge red platform had already been erected in the center of the square.

A huge incense burner was placed in the very center of the high platform, with golden incense sticks as thick as three arms swirling in the smoke.

Both sides were filled with roast suckling pig, fresh fruit and various offerings.

A Cinema projector covered with a thick red silk cloth was set up at the very front of the red carpet.

All hundreds of cast and crew members were present.

Wearing a retro dark green trench coat and sporting wavy hair, Gao Ye stood in the front row, exuding a powerful aura that attracted countless onlookers.

Zhang Ze, wearing an old jacket, stood to the side, head down, silently memorizing his lines.

Xu Jizhou, holding a megaphone, was beaming.

Standing in the very center was none other than Wang Ye, dressed in a sharp black trench coat and with a figure as straight as a spear.

Nine fifty-eight.

The auspicious time has arrived!

Shang Hongdie, wearing ten-centimeter high heels, walked side by side with Wang Ye to the front of the camera.

The two of them reached out at the same time and grabbed a corner of the red silk cloth.

"The crew of 'Raging Waves'!"

Xu Jizhou shouted at the top of his lungs.

"May the production be a great success! May it be a huge hit! May the ratings soar!"

Swish-!

The red silk cloth was suddenly lifted, revealing a cold and composed cinematic shot!

Crackling sounds!

The deafening sound of firecrackers exploded in the sky above the old street!

Incense smoke curled around the flames, and applause thundered!

Wang Ye turned around, faced the hundreds of performers and staff below the stage, and took the megaphone.

The entire room fell silent instantly.

Wang Ye wore a cynical yet disdainful smile, his voice not loud, but it shattered the entire venue through the speakers.

"Enough said."

"All departments, please return to your positions."

"The first incident today took place at the Jiuchang Street vegetable market, where Gao Qiqiang was surrounded and beaten."

"I personally took the lead."

"start!"

The crowd erupted in a thunderous roar!

The machine is pushed into the track, and the lighting plate is raised high.
