Hollywood Director 1992

After spending three days with the crew in Miami and understanding the filming progress, Link flew back to Los Angeles to prepare for the filming of his third movie, "Final Destination."

The weather in Los Angeles in March and April was pleasant, with clear skies, a gentle breeze, and a comfortable temperature.

In the morning, Link, accompanied by his bodyguard Wallace, ran 10 kilometers in a small park near the Golden Oak Apartments, breaking a sweat. After a shower, he felt refreshed and invigorated.

He had slept alone last night.

Before yesterday, he rarely had the opportunity to sleep alone. Sometimes it was Monica, sometimes Jennifer Connelly, sometimes Renée Zellweger, and sometimes he had intimate encounters with Sophia and Liu Xiaoli.

Every day was filled with indulgence and nightly revelry.

His body didn't get enough rest. Although his physical fitness had been improved multiple times, he still felt tired sometimes.

Last night, he had enough sleep. After running in the morning and sweating a lot, the impurities in his body were discharged with the sweat, making him feel relaxed, light, and full of energy.

"Wow, Link, what happened last night? You look so refreshed. Hehe, did you have two, no, three girls sleeping with you last night?"

Chris Bauer came over to tease him when he arrived at the company around ten o'clock.

"Stop it. I'm not as depraved as you think."

Link shook his head.

He became refreshed after abstinence, not indulgence. Chris Bauer was clearly a bit blind.

"What's wrong with being depraved? Playboy magazine says that the more depraved a man is, the happier he is. If you're not depraved, it must be because you're too weak. If you were as strong as me, you wouldn't say that. I suggest you exercise your muscles more often."

Chris Bauer flexed his arms, but unfortunately, the shape of his muscles wasn't very obvious because he was wearing a shirt.

Link disdained his muscles. After several enhancements, his physical strength was now comparable to that of professional boxers and weightlifters. He not only became stronger and more powerful, but also had increasing endurance and stamina.

Muscles like Chris Bauer's, grown from protein powder, were not enough in his eyes.

"How is the work of your props team progressing? The movie will start shooting at the latest next week. I hope your props team won't mess things up by then."

"Don't worry, there won't be any problems. Our props team has been making props according to your design for three months. Currently, it's almost complete, about 80% or more. That's what I heard from Eric. The props team will definitely not hold back the crew when the movie starts shooting."

Chris Bauer said.

"That's good."

Eric was the head of the props department in the crew and also a senior prop designer. All the props and mechanism designs used in "Final Destination" were his responsibility.

Chris Bauer was an apprentice in the props team. Because of his good relationship with Link, the people in the props team called Chris 'Director' and were both fond of him and afraid of him.

They liked him because when the props team lacked funds, they could ask him to help speak, and the production department would approve more funds. They were afraid that this guy would randomly report him to Link.

"Good morning, Link. You look great. A vacation is indeed good."

Daniel DeVito walked over with a big belly, wearing a gray suit and a dark green tie. Because his belly was relatively large, the lower end of the tie was a bit upturned.

He was still wearing black-rimmed glasses, and his vast Mediterranean was slightly shiny under the light. His cheeks were rounder than last year, making his face look bigger.

"Good morning, Daniel. You should lose weight. If you continue to gain weight, I'm worried you'll need someone to help you walk in the future."

Link pointed to his belly.

"Hahaha."

Daniel opened his mouth wide and laughed a few times, patting his belly and saying, "Yes, I feel it too. There's no way. I'm the kind of person who gains weight even when eating vegetables. But you're right. After this period of busyness is over, I'll sign up for a weight loss training class and try to lose my belly."

"How are the auditions going? I need to get the cast list by Friday."

"No problem. The supporting roles in the play have been decided, and only the six main actors remain undecided. Tomorrow is the third round of auditions. I'll give you the list of actors who have entered the third round later. You can take a look and see if there are any suitable candidates."

"Okay."

Link arrived at the president's office. Liu Xiaoli was one step ahead of him, inserting flowers into several vases by the counter.

Seeing him come in, Liu Xiaoli looked him up and down a few times and smiled, "Did you eat an elixir? Your face is glowing."

"I'm happy to see you, so it shows on my face."

"You're so glib."

Liu Xiaoli smiled slightly and continued to insert lilies into the two crystal vases.

Today, she was wearing a light green knee-length dress, with a new Dior suit jacket, white high heels, nude stockings, and her long black hair was combed back into a ponytail, revealing her fair and rosy cheeks. The blue earrings on her earlobes reflected dazzling light under the sunlight outside the window.

Her clothes and makeup were more fashionable and beautiful than in the past, and she exuded the temperament of a European and American professional woman, which, combined with her original gentle and moist temperament, made her even more charming.

I remember when I first met her last year, she was alone with her four or five-year-old daughter, without a job, a place to live, or a car. She only had a few pieces of clothing, and she wore a necklace for a long time. Although she behaved strongly and calmly on the outside, people who knew her could feel her anxiety and unease.

After she joined Guess Pictures, her situation gradually improved. Last year, her salary, bonuses, and subsidies totaled $200,000, reaching the income level of the American middle class.

After earning money, she bought a BMW car, many famous brand clothes and jewelry, high-end perfumes, and made new friends.

She even picked up the dance she had put down for a long time, often exercising and practicing yoga, socializing and shopping, as if she had integrated into here.

After the quality of life improved, her complexion and temperament also improved, and the whole person became radiant, plump, and more beautiful.

"Assistant Liu, why are you getting more and more beautiful? Did you also eat an elixir?"

"I can't afford an elixir. It's just that no one has been harassing me these days, so I'm in a good mood... What are you doing? Don't come over."

Liu Xiaoli held the vase in front of her.

"Ha, don't shout. This is my office. Even if you shout until your throat is broken, no one will come to save you. Little lady, you might as well just follow me."

Link pretended to be a rogue and rubbed his hands.

Liu Xiaoli rolled her eyes at him, "Can you be more serious? You are a billionaire on Forbes, a famous director, and a great writer. Why are you like a little gangster?"

"What's wrong with a little gangster? Little gangsters are all true to their feelings. When they see a beautiful woman, they show their true feelings. Unlike big gangsters, when they do bad things, they don't give you a chance to block them with a vase. They will pounce on you and bully you at will. So you should pray that I am a little gangster, not a big gangster."

Link said, restraining his smirk.

"Oh, you're even sympathizing with little gangsters. You're so embarrassed."

Liu Xiaoli pushed him on the shoulder and turned to continue arranging flowers.

Link smiled softly, hugged her waist from behind, and kissed her cheeks and lips.

It's been almost a year, and Liu Xiaoli has become accustomed to being taken advantage of by him. She doesn't resist when he hugs her, letting him flirt with her.

However, as long as his movements are slightly larger and touch her bottom line, she will give him a sudden jolt, letting him know what is appropriate.
