Chapter 96
Is Chapter 96 a proper movie? First meeting with Li Xue
The outside world's turmoil had nothing to do with Zhou Yan at this moment; he just wanted to catch up on some sleep.
After returning home, Zhou Yan took a shower and then lay down on the bed.
Fan Binbin did not disturb him and went to the company to handle some business.
During this period, the company's business has increased dramatically, especially the invitations related to Zhou Yan, which have been pouring in.
In addition to endorsement offers from manufacturers, there were also invitations from the five major magazines.
They had witnessed Zhou Yan's performance in Europe and knew that his photos were selling very well there.
Even high-end luxury brands such as Dior, LV and Givenchy are seeking collaborations.
They certainly didn't want to miss out.
Zhou Yan received a constant stream of offers for movies and TV series.
As Nanhua Film & Television expands further, its human resources department has to urgently recruit more staff.
Xu Li began looking for a new office space.
For the former [Nanhua Film and Television], this venue was more than enough.
However, for Nanhua Film & Television at present, the space is somewhat limited.
Therefore, expansion is urgently needed.
Nanhua Film & Television's wealth accumulated and its reputation grew.
In the evening, Zhou Yan personally cooked and spent quality time with Fan Binbin.
"Binbin, I'm planning to make a movie and I'd like you to be the female lead," Zhou Yan said, looking up at Fan Binbin.
Upon hearing this, Fan Binbin suddenly raised his head, his eyes sparkling with excitement.
"What genre?"
"Well, it's a mix of gunfights, action, and romance."
"An action-romance movie?" Fan Binbin's face was full of doubt.
"Is it a proper movie?" Fan Binbin asked, her tone full of uncertainty.
"What nonsense are you thinking? It's definitely a proper movie," Zhou Yan said, speechless at Fan Binbin's question.
Fan Binbin was secretly delighted. "Who's the male lead?"
"Nonsense, of course it's me," Zhou Yan said irritably.
"Then I'll take it," Fan Binbin said immediately.
"This movie has action scenes, so you should exercise more and it would be best to learn some martial arts moves," Zhou Yan reminded him.
"I'll try my best," Fan Binbin said. She was very busy, but she also enjoyed being busy.
"Hmm," Zhou Yan said, glancing at the time.
"Binbin, it's getting late, you should rest," Zhou Yan reminded him.
"Turn off the lights."
"Why turn off the lights? I want to leave them on."
"BT!"
"Hehe, let me show you what a real pervert is." Zhou Yan yelled and pounced on him.
……
Zhou Yan didn't have many women around him, only four at most—Fan Binbin, Li Binbin, Gao Yuanyuan, and Jia Jingwen.
Xiao Qiang was not even a factor, and he had no intention of developing a deeper relationship with her.
In terms of skin, Fan Binbin has the fairest complexion.
Why did Zhou Yan turn on the light?
Under the lights, Fan Binbin's skin glowed like that of a beautiful woman with alabaster skin.
The next day, Zhou Yan called Li Binbin.
"Sister Binbin, are you free tonight?"
"What's wrong?"
"I'm back in China, let's have a meal together."
"I'm free," Li Binbin said hurriedly.
"Then I'll come find you tonight."
"Okay." Li Binbin was very happy.
After hanging up the phone, Li Binbin walked out of the bedroom humming a song.
"Come with me to the supermarket in a bit," Li Binbin called out to Li Xue.
"Where are you going?"
"We have guests coming tonight, let's go buy some groceries."
"Who is it?" Li Xue asked curiously.
"You'll find out tonight," Li Binbin hesitated for a moment, "Well, you can sleep in the guest room tonight."
"?" Li Xue was stunned.
"Oh," Li Xue immediately realized, "I know who's coming."
Besides Zhou Yan, who else would let me sleep in the guest room?
"You heartless bastard, you've forgotten your sister now that you have a man," Li Xue said, her face filled with sadness and despair.
"Say it again, say it again," Li Binbin stepped forward and tickled Li Xue's ticklish spot.
"Ah... I was wrong," Li Xue hurriedly begged for forgiveness.
……
Zhou Yan was unaware of what had happened between the two women. After getting up and tidying up, he went to the study.
"The Eight Heroes" is nearing its end, and he plans to finish the book today.
He would have finished writing it long ago if he hadn't gone to Berlin, Germany.
The plot of "Eight Great Heroes" kept flashing through Zhou Yan's mind as he tapped his fingers on the keyboard.
After an unknown amount of time, Zhou Yan typed three words on his computer: "The End!"
"Phew, finally finished writing," Zhou Yan leaned back in his chair and let out a long sigh of relief.
"This is the fifth book in the [Stormy Jianghu] series, there are five more to go."
Zhou Yan has published three books: "Qin's Moon", "Heavenly Sword Heroes", and "The Seven Heroes of Shenzhou" (Rainbow Cat and Blue Rabbit Seven Heroes).
Among them, "Sword Rain Jianghu" is still unpublished, while "Eight Great Heroes" has just been completed.
Zhou Yan has completed half of the task.
The remaining five books are: Kunlun, The Battle of the Storm, The Eccentric Swordsman, Qi Family Blade, and Embroidered Spring Blade!
Zhou Yan plans to take a break and then start writing "Kunlun"!
That evening, Zhou Yan called Li Binbin to ask what he wanted to eat so he could buy some ingredients.
"Just come over, I've already bought everything, and I'm just waiting for you, the chef," Li Binbin said with a smile.
"Okay." Zhou Yan selected two bottles of fine wine.
When Zhou Yan arrived at Li Binbin's house, he was stunned. Besides Li Binbin, there was another beautiful woman in the house.
He looks very young.
Zhou Yan recognized her at a glance—Li Xue, Li Binbin's younger sister.
In his previous life, Zhou Yan had met the other party; he was an extremely powerful figure.
It could be said that Li Binbin's rise to stardom was partly due to Li Xue's influence.
Because Li Xue selected and persuaded Li Binbin to take on many of the film roles he starred in.
2004年《天下无贼》、2006年《云水谣》、2009年《风声》、2010年《雪花秘扇》、《狄仁杰之通天帝国》、2012年《我愿意》、2014年《变形金刚4:绝迹重生》、2018年《巨齿鲨》等。
At the same time, Li Xue also facilitated the collaboration between Li Binbin and GUCCI in the business world, making Li Binbin the first female celebrity ambassador in the history of the GUCCI brand.
Li Xue is very capable. When they were at Huayi Brothers, the two of them worked together to suppress Fan Binbin.
"This is..." Zhou Yan pretended not to recognize him.
This was the first time he had met Li Xue.
"This is my younger sister—Li Xue," Li Binbin introduced.
"Hello, brother-in-law," Li Xue said with a smile.
"Uh..." Zhou Yan was stunned.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Li Binbin gently patted Li Xue. "Be serious."
"How am I being unserious?" Li Xue teased Zhou Yan, "You're even more handsome in person than on TV."
"No wonder she could be so infatuated with my sister," Li Xue continued.
Li Binbin blushed and said, "Shut your mouth."
Li Binbin glared fiercely at Li Xue.
"Well, I'll go cook first," Zhou Yan glanced at Li Binbin and decisively went into the kitchen.
"If you keep talking nonsense, I'll kick you out," Li Binbin threatened.
"Fine, see if I leave or not," Li Xue said, completely unafraid.
Li Binbin was completely helpless.
Zhou Yan pricked up her ears, trying to eavesdrop on the two sisters' conversation, but they were too far apart, and the TV was too loud, so she couldn't hear what they were saying at all.
Zhou Yan could only focus her attention on the ingredients.
Li Binbin bought quite a lot of things, including seafood such as sea cucumber and abalone, as well as fresh ham.
Looking at the ingredients, Zhou Yan decided to make a three-dish meal and a soup.
