Chapter 112: Cruise Kiss, Snow Kiss, Red Carpet Kiss, So Many Kisses!
“No way! Absolutely not! How can this be?!”
In the office.
Jin Ming thought of his little niece’s appearance not long ago, saying “I’m his person,” and felt a surge of uncontrollable anger.
No need to pretend with his own sister, he said loudly: “I disagree. How can our family’s precious baby date someone like Chi Ye?”
On the other end of the phone.
Jin Sui moved the mobile phone away, dug in her ear, and only put it back after the sound stopped: “Oh, Xia Xia didn’t say they were dating. Why are you so anxious?”
“Not dating? If not dating, why ‘Let me introduce him, he’s my male lead’?” As soon as Jin Ming thought of that picture, he got furious: “What is this? Tell me, what is this?”
“This is blatant provocation!”
“And asking me to support them… I support a… a… intestinal gas emission!”
Jin Sui: “?”
“What thing? Say it again?”
“Is the word ‘fart’ that hard to say? Still intestinal gas emission. I think your head has been emitted away!”
Jin Sui unhesitatingly scolded her brother: “You bought an entertainment company at a high price without consulting anyone, and I haven’t said anything about you yet, but you started talking about Xia Xia first?”
“You’d better lose less this time, or next time you’re kicked out, don’t blame me for not taking you in.”
Jin Ming: “…… Thirty years east of the river…”
“East of the river a intestinal gas emission! You’re over forty years old, still talking about thirty years east of the river? If you keep losing money like this, whether you have the next thirty years is questionable!”
“Alright, hanging up!”
“Wait!”
Jin Ming held it in for a long time before saying: “It’s not being kicked out, I walked out.”
“Oh, carried out walking, you’re a gecko.”
“Hanging up.”
Jin Sui forcefully hung up the phone, and Jin Ming on the other end was furious but didn’t dare speak.
Fine, she’s just a shrew, otherwise she wouldn’t have been “kicked out of the house” and run off with that scum from Hong Kong.
Yes, speaking of “Chi Ye”!
Now it seems, Chi Ye is absolutely the second “Hong Kong scum”!
Back then, he was still young and could only watch helplessly as his sister was “deceived,” and sure enough she was scammed, and continuously scammed three times!
This time, he has grown strong, and strength brings change!
He absolutely will not allow Jin Xia to follow in her little aunt’s footsteps!
Chi Ye, I will fight you with all my might fearlessly!
……
Chi Ye Studio.
“Your little uncle, what was that about? How did he leave without saying a word?”
“Didn’t leave.” The Empress Dowager’s mouth was stuffed full of various snacks that Chi Ye had prepared for her, she said bulgingly: “He’s a civilized person, likes to act profound, unwilling to insult, if he has to say something, it’s ‘I need to attend the next meeting, farewell’.”
“Don’t worry, he doesn’t have much influence, just a loud voice… his voice isn’t that loud either.”
Chi Ye listened silently, but was greatly shocked.
Jin Family Home doesn’t keep idle people!
“No more about him, no more.”
The Empress Dowager swallowed the snacks, excitedly leaned close to Chi Ye, pointing at her suitcase: “Teacher Chi, guess what gifts I brought you?”
“Hm?”
Chi Ye curiously: “Local specialties? Or the suit custom-made last time?”
“NO.”
Jin Xia raised her white tender index finger, shook it, then personally squatted down, pulled the zipper, and opened the suitcase: “Ta-da~!”
“Local specialties from all European countries!”
Chi Ye glanced over and was immediately dumbfounded.
In this large suitcase, various items were clearly separated.
Leather goods, Bottega Veneta and Fendi handbags, wallets.
Watch, Vacheron Constantin collector’s edition.
Jewelry, classic Trinity series full set.
Perfume……
Even more outrageous, this whole suitcase was full of gifts for him, packed full, nothing else.
“Isn’t this your own suitcase?”
“Yeah.”
“Where are your things?”
“I didn’t buy anything, all bought for you!”
“You usually don’t treat yourself and don’t care about these things, I saw them and felt they suited you, so I bought them.”
“How come so many?”
“Because every one I saw felt super suitable for you!”
“……”
Chi Ye looked at her, negotiated: “Then can we discuss, in the future outside, say I ‘keep’ you, okay?”
“Why?” Jin Xia puzzled.
“This way I have face.” Chi Ye said.
“Like that.”
Jin Xia stunned for a moment, immediately nodded: “Okay, you keep me!”
Chi Ye: “……”
Couldn’t take it, couldn’t take it, even an immortal couldn’t withstand this “completely obedient” approach.
He really couldn’t hold back his curiosity, probed: “Then whatever I say, you’ll listen?”
Jin Xia hummed and glanced at him: “Depends on the situation.”
“Then what situation will you listen?”
“Hm… I think when you’re sad, I’ll listen to you.”
“Then if not sad?”
“I’m very rebellious, Teacher Chi. I have a bad personality, bad temper, and when I act up, no one can stand it.”
Jin Xia gave a preemptive warning ten years early: “You’d better be mentally prepared, I’m afraid you’ll be driven crazy.”
Chi Ye: “?”
He immediately put away all thoughts, stood up, pretending nothing happened: “Let’s go, take you to visit your ‘industry’, then… discuss the script.”
“…… Teacher Chi, are you scared by me?”
Jin Xia was a bit unhappy: “I was just joking, you’re like this, I’m a bit disappointed.”
“No.”
Chi Ye smiled, walked outside, voice firm: “I just like being tormented!”
“Tormented by whom?”
“You.”
Jin Xia was stunned, looking at his back, her peach blossom eyes narrowed into crescents, coquettishly called: “I want to hear 《When You》, Teacher Chi.”
“I’ll sing for you.”
“Hm… then can you chorus 《Light Years Away》 with me?”
“Sure.”
“I sing poorly, I can’t sing.”
“I’ll teach you.”
“What if I can’t learn?”
“If you can’t learn, it’s not your problem, it’s the song and music industry being too inconsiderate!”
“Can’t say that… music industry has good people who are realistic… hm…”
“…… Teacher Chi, you’re so good… hey, wait for me!”
The Empress Dowager was coaxed into bliss, happily following behind him, and soon the studio echoed with their chattering voices.
Behind, Sister Mi didn’t speak, just kept sneering coldly.
“Dog couple”, go ahead and act, right in front of this single person.
I see how far you can go.
……
For the Xing Ni script, Chi Ye had a rough idea during Voice of Nature.
Here, have to mention that on New Year’s Eve, the Advanced Plagiarism and Adaptation Skill he specially drew from Wang Zheng 【.
This skill is great.
Great where?
Great in that not only did it give Chi Ye advanced screenwriter basics, but also added a “master-level” plagiarism skill!
As an unprofessional plagiarist, possessing Earth’s treasure trove, he really needed this “advanced” skill.
This directly made up for his previous life’s lack of screenwriter ability + “adaptation” technique.
Have to admit, although Wang Zheng has bad reputation, his plagiarism did create flair.
For example, Xing Ni’s plot, on the protagonists’ character designs, especially the female lead, relying on this skill, he made adjustments more fitting to Jin Xia’s personality, and kept up with the times, polishing details to better fit the current market.
The benefit of this is, without era constraints, with Xing Ni’s excellent character design script, it should explode with the due terror effect.
On the other hand, the Empress Dowager and he could also, with Xing Ni’s broadcast, maximize converting the drama’s male and female leads’ popularity to themselves.
Shen Qing Yu was right, Chi Ye is indeed very scheming, always seeking profit maximization.
Especially regarding Jin Xia.
One week later.
The “Yue Na big list” incident gradually subsided, characterized as a “rumor incident”.
But Yue Na’s due go public process was cut off here.
Over a dozen senior executives responsible for the work took the blame, some resigned, some were cleared out.
As the strongest insider, Young President Liu also suffered an unprecedented blow, his shares “voluntarily” diluted, though still nominal second-in-command, but obviously, several big shareholders already full of doubt towards him.
If not for his strong connections, he would probably become one of the scapegoats.
The matter concluded, no one knew that behind it all was Chi Ye’s doing.
The industry already buzzing, Shen Qing Yu went mad, single-handedly causing Yue Na’s go public to be cut off, losses immeasurable.
While shocked, couldn’t help but revise impression of Shen Qing Yu, previously “a bit dumb” — this guy has strong methods, pity, too late.
If he had this method before, how would he end up like this?
Countless “enemies” searching for Shen Qing Yu, the real party Chi Ye, on the contrary, not much attention.
This day.
Chi Ye organized the first draft of Xing Ni script he wrote, under this name, met the busy Big Boss Jin Xia.
In the studio.
As usual, he prepared lots of tasty food for the Empress Dowager, but… not much junk food, he chose ones that were tasty but not too junky.
Otherwise, if the Empress Dowager ate too much, he’d feel heartbroken.
“Where’s the script, the script?”
Jin Xia looked at Chi Ye eagerly, emotional value maxed.
Chi Ye was strange why she was so eager, looked at Sister Mi sneering beside.
Sister Mi saw, continued sneering: “Oh my, she’s back a week, took no jobs, pushed N announcements, just to wait for your script. Our great screenwriter Chi, how’s the preparation?”
“Great screenwriter Chi’s script is naturally the best script.”
Chi Ye remained composed, directly ignored Sister Mi’s sarcasm.
For her always taking care of the Empress Dowager, won’t stoop to her level!
“Heh.”
Sister Mi sneered, but met Jin Xia’s gaze, could only grudgingly hold back, while Chi Ye turned to get the printed script, leaned over and whispered: “Screenwriter teachers all contacted, when should they come?”
“Hm~”
Jin Xia thought for two seconds, said: “Teacher Chi’s script is so good, whether they come or not doesn’t matter.”
Sister Mi dumbfounded, looked at her: “What exactly do you mean?”
The Empress Dowager shut up and didn’t speak.
Sister Mi reacted, nodded: “Right, Teacher Chi is so awesome… but to ensure quality, as your agent, I definitely need to check, so I’ll have them come!”
Jin Xia hesitated: “Then… okay, tell them in advance, all praise it well!”
Sister Mi dumbfounded again: “Ah?”
The Empress Dowager very dissatisfied with lack of rapport with Sister Mi, sulkily said: “Praise it well!”
“…… Oh, I get it, that’s praise well, then privately have them write their ‘suggestions’?”
“Not suggestions, five-star reviews!”
“…… You’re awesome, really awesome.”
Sister Mi couldn’t hold back, shook her head looking at Jin Xia: “How didn’t I notice before, you can ‘favor’ someone to this extent?”
“Sister Mi, this isn’t favoritism, it’s fact.”
The Empress Dowager shook her head, a bit sleepy.
Sister Mi didn’t say more, went out to contact the screenwriter teachers already waiting.
She didn’t tell Chi Ye just now, Jin Xia not only pushed announcements, but even spent big money hiring top industry screenwriter team… on standby.
Yes, not asking you to do anything, just give you money to wait.
Wait for what?
Wait for Teacher Chi to “polish” the script!
On the other side.
Chi Ye printed the Xing Ni script, returned to the office.
“Here, take a look.”
“Yay, finally!”
The Empress Dowager had starry eyes, impatiently took the script, Sister Mi who came back in glanced sideways: “Pretty fast huh.”
“Not bad.” Chi Ye nodded.
“Sister Mi, can’t say Teacher Chi is fast!”
Jin Xia wasn’t happy: “Not auspicious, take it back.”
Sister Mi: “……”
Chi Ye: “?”
You know quite a bit huh?
Here, the Empress Dowager already saw the script’s name.
“《You Who Came from the Stars》? Hm… nice name!”
Sister Mi: “……”
Raised hand glanced at watch: “Look at the content.”
Chi Ye casually tossed another copy: “No rush, you look too, help advise.”
Sister Mi took it, surprised, but nodded, flipped through, muttering inwardly, your autobiography was AI-written, this script won’t be AI-written too?
Chi Ye unaware of Sister Mi’s grudge against him, long familiar with the plot, legs crossed yawning beside.
For a moment, the office only had page-turning sounds, and Sister Mi’s surprised: “Eh… this male and female leads’ designs, interesting… this plot…”
Not right, something off.
Jin Xia didn’t speak, from the start she wasn’t lying, she was seriously reading the script word by word.
But as she read…
Her eyes showed some change.
Occasionally looked up at Chi Ye, Chi Ye puzzled, she didn’t speak, continued head down reading, that appearance like entered binge-watching mode… though she never binges.
Half hour later.
Noise outside the door, Jin Xia closed the Xing Ni script, looked at Sister Mi: “Tell those screenwriter teachers to go back.”
Sister Mi already immersed: “Ah?!”
“This script can’t… can’t be shown to others!” Jin Xia hugged the script like a treasure, her peach blossom eyes suddenly realized, stared at Sister Mi: “Did you finish reading?”
Sister Mi paused, shook head: “No, just flipped two pages.”
“Then don’t read!”
“…… Okay.”
Jin Xia waited for Sister Mi to go out, then turned to Chi Ye, peach blossom eyes unblinking at him, not speaking.
Chi Ye strange: “What’s wrong? Not good? Any suggestions you can raise.”
“Teacher Chi.”
The Empress Dowager paused, hesitated half day, then lowered her little head, muttered: “Teacher Chi, just this once, just once!”
Chi Ye surprised: “?”
“What just once?”
“I always use body double for kiss scenes, a script with so many kiss scenes… I’ll shoot once!”
Chi Ye: “……”
“How many scenes… cruise kiss… drunk kiss… vacation home kiss… snowy kiss… red carpet kiss… hm… so many!”
Chi Ye thought, said: “How about… reduce some?”
Jin Xia didn’t reply, seriously asked: “Teacher Chi, is this really the script you wrote for me?”
Chi Ye stunned, sensed another meaning in the Empress Dowager’s words.
He nodded without hesitation: “Yes, wrote for you.”
Paused, he added: “Based on you, wrote for you alone.”
“Want to reduce some?”
Jin Xia stared at him long, peach blossom eyes smiled: “No need to reduce, Teacher Chi, I like this script!”
