Reborn to Dominate Hollywood

It was empty, the whole apartment was empty, but he didn't feel it, his heart was starting to lose its rhythm.

A long line... Two figures appear at one end of the hall, while three people appear at the other end: suits, ties, gloves, and masks.

One of them inserted a key card attached to his mobile phone and hacked into the door lock, turning the light from red to green.

Another person placed a small magnetic gun on the door, adjusted the settings, and pulled the trigger.

- This action causes the latch to bounce off the door....

...... The door opened.

Five people entered at the same time, closing the door behind them.

Keanu lay on his back under the covers and snored slightly.

Two stared at his legs, two stared at his arms, their hands hovering over an appendage, waiting for a fifth....

...... He pulled out a plastic bag with a wet towel inside.

The man took off the towel... Nodding from 3... 2...1 starts the countdown.

Like a well-oiled machine, both hands grip Keanu's arms and legs, and the man slaps the rag on Keanu's mouth.

Keanu's body tensed and his eyes opened suddenly... But he didn't inhale. One shot... Keanu twists at a strange angle, causing one of the people who grabbed his arm to lose control. Keanu freed up a hand, reached out and grabbed the man's wrist, and slammed it hard.

Keanu took out the K-BAR knife from under the blanket and stabbed it ... Two knives... Three knives... Then he let go of the knife, arched his back, and wrapped his legs around the neck of the other person, tense until - snap - the man's neck was broken.

The other three were terrified and overwhelmed.

The third man took a step back, took out the silenced pistol from the holster on his shoulder, and shot blindly.

Bullets were fired along the mattress into the headboard ... Keanu rolled out of bed and reached under the bed to grab the shotgun.

The

gunslinger's left leg is gone, and he falls to the ground screaming.

Keanu shoots again, hitting the fallen gunman in the chest.

Keanu shot at the fleeing gunman at the door

, "Ka, good shot! Good fight! Everyone's five-minute break continue!" Ian said loudly, secretly praising the shot for being well fired.

"Well done!"

Keanu said he sprained his ankle in the morning. Nick walked up behind Ian and said.

"Let me see if I can see it. "

Hmm. Nick sat in his chair and told Ian to do it.

"Everything works fine. There are no signs of injury, see if he's okay. "

[9 p.m., Reina Building]

Ian was eating in front of the TV, watching the late-night news while eating bite after bite of Chinese ramen that didn't feel like it was real.

Maybe it's because of a tiring day on set, maybe it's just because of Valerina's food.

"This morning, Christian Bale explained in an interview with the media how difficult it was to shoot some scenes of the Joker, given how hilarious Freddy is. "This moment shook the entire Internet for the following reasons - " The

beautiful lady who had been sitting up straight looked at the camera and finally smiled.

The screen cuts from her camera to a clip of Christian Bale facing several microphones.

He always kept smiling and listened to the reporters' questions.

"Christian Bale, how was your experience with The Dark Knight movie? There are some clips circulating that say you had a great time filming! And this fun is the exact opposite of the theme of the movie!" Christian

raised an eyebrow and smiled again.

"Oh yes! This movie is currently number one at the box office, with a box office of over 1 billion! So, first of all, yes, yes, yes! This is a major filming event that I've never been involved in in my life! It's indescribably fun! Especially Freddy, Freddy, I have to tell you, man, he's special, he's not funny like the Joker, so yes, it's really funny!

" "Thank you, thank you--".

The scene pans back to the old lady, and a smile appears on Ian's face.

Although this movie was not directed by him, he feels that this movie still has a lot of achievements. Especially now that the Oscars are just around the corner.

For a variety of reasons, he had never had high hopes for an Oscar before. But after achieving so many results and reaching the top of the box office, he felt that these achievements should and must be given to the whole team, and it was their hard work that made the film possible.

The Dark Knight continues to climb at the box office, setting new records with its brilliant catalog.

Ian had a feeling that it would be a shame if the film didn't win the award he thought it deserved.

It's a shame to even continue to create more films, because we can never give something that others don't already appreciate.

[August 15, 2020]

"Good morning, everyone!" John's voice resounded through the set hall.

John is a friend of Ian's and has been assisting in the filming of the film John Wick at Ian's suggestion.

He just wanted to end his life of obsessing with film, filmmaking, and everything that had to do with it behind the scenes.

However, the last time he tried to work with someone who had the same passion, his dream was shattered by his father, who wanted him to pursue something else.

However, just as he was doing something he didn't like, dealing with his father's business, he met Ian.

Ian came back and changed his entire life.

John was skeptical at first as to why Ian would do everything for the studio, as Ian had even teased him when they were in college together, but when he saw how good Ian was and how well he had brought the studio, he had to believe him.

In John's mind, John Wick was the end of his passion for continuing the family business, which he began to love.

"As you know, we're here! The last day of John Wick shooting! I don't want to say anything about how great I think it's going to be, but yes, let's get started and try to finish the final shoot!" he

said so loudly that everyone could hear it.

Ian laughed.

The set is set on the outside. Not inside, but in broad daylight, away from the crowds, but outside.

Someone is in a hurry to set it up. Photographers are busy positioning their cameras correctly.

There are also the lighting crews, who go to great lengths to make the final scene look its best.

The three of them kept walking back to back in front of the camera and the screen, while following the orders of Ian and John, who were standing nearby.

"No, I think a 75-degree angle is good. It looks more real that way, you know. Ian said, continuing to look at the car.

John raised an eyebrow and nodded. "I think you're right. That's it, no problem!Third to seventy-five!Okay, thank you!"

No, left! Closer, okay, perfect!" Ian shouted again.

"No, thank you, John, when do we need champagne

?" "After the shoot, who would want to not ice champagne?"

"————————————And

... "

When Keanu stepped into the role, the directors kept observing the scene from the audience's point of view.

The 1969 Ford Mustang "Boss 429" sprints on the tarmac, the body is smooth, neat, and black as night, and the interior of the car............

...... Miko stuck her head out of the open window, her eyes narrowed into a slit, her mouth open, and her tongue fluttering in the wind.

John smiled and reached out to scratch her back.

"Good boy, Miko... Good boy," John said.

The wild horses galloped off into the distance without stopping.

"Let me see... It took Ian a while to see if this was the shot he was looking for.

When the director took the tape back and forth to check for flaws, everyone on the set stood still and did not move.

Everything was perfect! And so it was over! Who's going to celebrate?" Ian shouted, and everyone began to cheer.

As the applause and the words they shouted overlapped, the atmosphere on the set instantly rose.

"Yes, let's go!Let's

go!" "Getting drunk is the best part

!" "It's done, go to the bar and get drunk

!" "After months of hard work, it's finally working

!" "Yes, exactly!"

"Thank you, Ian!".

"Love you, buddy!"

————————————

filming officially ended, and Ian and John ended filming after confirming that all scenes had been filmed, including the planned additional scenes.

After the shoot, everyone, including the actors, the crew, and even the director, was invited to the filming finishing party.

If you know anything about Hollywood, you will know that Hollywood is all about being famous and showing yourself at parties. Of course, not to mention the effort and progress that everyone is looking forward to. However, the main part of every celebrity's life is creating and managing a network.

To some extent, celebrities are also blacklisted. It has nothing to do with Ian's aftershow, but the fact that the whole thing will be blacklisted is interesting. However, there is no official "blacklist" for Hollywood itself, but there are several whose careers seem to have fallen off a cliff, and it's not because they lack talent. It's because they're angry in public, difficult to work with, or racist and/or homosexual. It also shows that celebrities' careers don't always rely on their talents.

That's why even small gatherings like celebrating the end of the shoot are important to everyone in the industry – especially celebrities – and for anyone around Ian at the moment, as well as those who work under him or with him.

————————————

Ian was wearing his favorite suit, looking at himself in the mirror and smiling. He is preparing for a party to celebrate the end of filming.

Normally, at this kind of party, the studio should invite everyone as much as possible. But this time, Ian and John decided to hold it only between the crew and the team. Still, some misunderstandings arose in the discussion.

He looked at himself, felt good, and was ready to go.

"Rei, are you alright?" Ian called her name as she was still in the bathroom.

Raelyn had decided earlier to get dressed and be Ian's date tonight. She put on a gorgeous velvet dress and cute earrings to match the outfit, and looking at herself in the mirror, she was sure that she would make some people jaw when she went out.

"Not yet! give me five minutes!" she shouted back from the bathroom.

I know how those five minutes passed. Ian thought for a moment and shook his head.

Five minutes for a lady can take twenty minutes, or even longer. Ian had to learn the hard way, and yet he did it – and that's the number one principle of being a good boyfriend.

"I'll get down right now, soon!" Ian said, smiling and walking downstairs.

In the room, Lei Lin was the only one. She looked around the room. There was a part of her mind yelling that she shouldn't do this, to look at Ian's things while he wasn't there, but another part was willing to know more about him.

After all, she is a very curious person.

Raylen walked over to the bedside table and picked up his notebook with her hand. Whenever she was in his room, her gaze would meet the notebook thousands of times.

The atmosphere in the room was tense a bit. When she opened the notebook, her breath choked in her throat.

What the hell, she thought, quickly turning the page.

————————————

[downstairs at the Reina Building]

looked at everything in front of her, Valerine's eyes widened.

"Oh my God!" she exclaimed.

Ian covered his mouth and didn't speak, just looked at the gorgeous huge bouquet of flowers in front of him. This is for Raelin.

"I know, it's beautiful. You should look in the mirror, Valerine. You look inexplicable, calm down. So saying, he put away the roses.

"They're so beautiful.

Valerine's expression made Ian feel a little sad. He thought to himself: 'This bouquet is for her birthday'.

He didn't say anything, just nodded and waited for Lei to come down.

Ian is partly worried about his relationship with Raelin, and the other is too focused on work and everything related to the movie. But if there's one thing he's learned during his time at work, it's how to balance the two.

————————————

the notebook in front of Leilin made her scream.

"What the hell is this?" she whispered to herself.

It's full of director's notes. There are so many sketches, plans, director's notes, and so many things that are tied to so many films. Most of the films are already done by Ian, and there are a few that she doesn't recognize.

"It's wonderful... She smiled self-deprecatingly.

She hadn't felt this way in years, and looking at the words, pictures, and sketches, including every little detail, it was amazing for her.

She felt that she had finally stepped into the inner world of her idol. It's like breaking into an idol's space.

This also made her heart rise to her throat, she saw more and more pictures, and her breathing became more and more rapid.

"Is all this true?" she thought, swiping her fingers across the pages.

It feels so unreal.

All along, she imagined him as a hard-working, best-working person, someone who maximized his highly creative brain, but seeing him put his hard work into action... Respect for Ian came naturally.

"Lei... How long are you going to have?" Ian's voice came from downstairs, causing Raelin to jump.

"It's coming!"

————————————

[at the party]

"I didn't expect it to be such a big party, who knows, right?" Ian whispered in Raelin's ear, constantly watching the people who passed them.

"I mean, I kind of know, because I'm a planner?" she said, with a look of abrupt realization.

In the distance, she saw Will from Lincoln Studio walking over with a bright smirk on his face.

Looking at his smile, the smile on Lei Lin's face suddenly drooped.

Ian didn't notice that his girlfriend's mood changed immediately, and he frowned and looked at his girlfriend with the same eyes as hers.

"Who the invited him?" asked Raireen, her voice mixed with anger.

Ian was taken aback by Raelin's question, because as she had mentioned before, she should know who was coming and going in the party, if anything, but such a coincidence told him that things were slightly different.

"I'll be back. She said angrily, and walked away.

The whole situation left Ian with no idea what was going on.

"How's it going, Ian? How is everything doing? From the looks of it, you're blooming. I saw Raelyn -- your girlfriend holding a big bouquet of roses or something... It's going well, isn't it?"

Ian adjusted his tie and took a sip of his wine. Alcohol is needed to entertain such conversations.

"My private life has nothing to do with you.

"It's still public, though. You go on a date with the director of your studio, make a grand appearance in public... How can this be considered a private life?" Ian

felt as if he had had enough. What's more, this is the first time they have met. Considering Ian didn't like the comments, he had had enough.

Ian had heard something about Will, and it sounded like he doubted it was fake.

"Is Leylin your daughter?" Ian asked suddenly, louder than Will could speak.

"What?" he immediately retorted.

"Is she your daughter, sister, or family member?" he asked again. Now he repeats his question even more boldly.

There was sincerity in his voice.

"It's not

" "Oh, that's good to know.

Ian couldn't help but raise an eyebrow in surprise. "Unless neither of us is your family, you don't have to say much. Our business and relationships are ours, and your... It's falling.

He said bluntly without blinking an eye.

Ian is not a person who will throw dirty water on others. People who insult them publicly, even in private.

But even to his surprise, the words were harsher than he expected - however, he did not regret it.

Will shrugged and looked away. He was embarrassed.

"You can't escape," he muttered.

"Escape what? I've heard interesting rumors about Lincoln Studios. Did they let you get out of every corner of here? Why? just because of your obsession with me?" Ian asked rhetorically in the same strong tone.

"What?" the

female voice cleared her throat, diverting everyone's attention from the heat of the moment.

"Baby, a couple of directors are waiting, oh--sorry, I'm Railin. She casually came over to introduce herself.

Clever move, Rei," Ian thought.

"Let's go. The

two walked past Will and Gal hand in hand. The latter was dumbfounded by everything that happened.

Raelin's heartbeat, who was walking beside Ian, was pounding.

"I didn't expect you to be like this.... Angry," she said, staring wide-eyed. She wanted to smile at the pictures being taken around her, but her eyes were fixed on Ian.

"I'm not an angry person. But there's a lot going on on their side, and with his sharp teeth, I can't help it. You just called me baby?" Ian asked, surprised.

They have become accustomed to calling each other by their first names, and they rarely address each other with sweet words except when they are having sex.

Raereen blushed and looked away, but Ian felt a tickle in his stomach.

He thought to himself, "Damn young man," and drank it all.

Let the party begin.
