Solomon and Lu Qi were the only two people left in the office.

After coming to the window and confirming that Defan got into the car and left, Solomon, who looked sad, suddenly changed his expression, smiled and teased Lu Qi:

"Alex, your acting skills just now were not very good!"

Hearing this, Lu Qi's expression of bitterness and hatred turned into a smile. He shrugged and spread his hands, "I can't help it, why am I not a professional actor..."

"On your side, your performance just now could have made you play the leading actor in a movie."

Hearing Lu Qi's flattery, the old man was obviously very happy.

"Hahaha..."

After laughing a few times, Solomon was still a little worried, "Do you think that bastard believed it?"

Waving his hand, Lu Qi said casually:

"Don't worry, you saw the triumphant look on his face when he left... He must have thought he had us."

"Besides, he and the female assistant are just like me, they are laymen. How could they know that film technology has advanced to the point where green screens can be used for reshoots, and copies can be found everywhere."

Lu Qi's words were like a powerful calming agent that penetrated Solomon's heart, making him feel much more at ease.

"That's good..."

What Defan and Jasmine never expected was that Lu Qi and Solomon, who looked angry and helpless in front of them just now, were actually acting!

In fact, long after Defan came to the door and before Solomon went to get the movie samples, Lu Qi and Solomon discussed on the phone a way to prevent Defan from destroying the movie.

That is to perform a play and make Defan believe that there is only one film sample for the film!

Anyway, from the perspective of two outsiders, Devan and Jasmine, there is only one piece of film for the film that is about to be completed. As long as this piece of film is taken away, Solomon will not be able to finish the film, and they will have to borrow it.

This is the purpose of obtaining large insurance payouts.

However, it is not.

Even if the sample is lost, it will have almost no impact on the completion of the film!

Lu Qi knows this fact, Solomon knows it, but Defan doesn't know it! His right-hand assistant Jasmine doesn't know it either!!

As a result, Lu Qi and Solomon came up with the idea of ​​using a trick to let De Fan take the samples to convince him that his plan had been successful.

This will paralyze De Fan and buy enough time for the subsequent editing and release of the film.

Thinking of this, Lu Qi couldn't help but look at Solomon and asked:

"By the way, how's the editing going? Can it be completed within this week? We have to get the film released as soon as possible to prevent him from reacting and using other means to mess with us."

"I have asked people to speed up the editing. We should be able to complete the editing of the movie before the premiere."

"That's good. There are still a few days until the premiere. You'd better let Michael stay with you these days to make sure everything goes smoothly."

Hearing this, Solomon couldn't help but his eyes lit up and he snapped his fingers, "What a great idea! I can show him the movie by the way and discuss the plot of the movie with him."

"Whatever you want, I'll leave first. If anything happens, please contact me."

"Thank you, Alex."

Hearing the thank you from behind, Lu Qi raised the corner of his mouth, raised his right hand, waved it slightly, and walked out of the office without looking back.

...

Perhaps it was because the acting skills of Lu Qi and Solomon were too realistic, or perhaps because he felt that the outcome was decided, Defan did not continue to cause trouble for Solomon.

In this way, the editing and release preparations for "Collapse" are also going on secretly.

A few days later, the news that "Crash", Solomon Richard's last film before his retirement, was about to premiere was spread throughout Vinewood!

As the only legendary producer left in the industry, Solomon has been in the industry for many years and has a wide network of contacts.

For a time, in the entire Vineyard, actors and directors who had been mentored by Solomon spontaneously cheered and vigorously promoted this old man's retirement film.

All entertainment news and movie-related media have also mobilized to make this movie known to everyone.

Headlines such as "A classic from the legendary producer" and ""Crash" - the must-see movie of the year" have made "Crash", which has not yet been released, become the most watched movie.

The upcoming premiere has also become an outpost of media pursuit!

...

The night of the premiere.

The Oriental Theater on Vinewood Avenue.

At the entrance of the theater, shutter sounds and flashing lights continued, turning it into a large and bustling red carpet area.

"Ahhh!"

"Milton, I love you!"

"Jesse, I want to give you a baby!"

...

The Vineyard stars who had received the invitation came to accept interviews from reporters and media while trying their best to pose in various poses amidst the crazy screams of a large number of fans behind the fence.

Among them, the most eye-catching one is the popular fried chicken, "Vinewood Sweetheart" Lacey Varnas.

She wore a rose red V-neck haute couture dress tonight, transformed into a glamorous goddess with flaming red lips, and stood out among the crowd.

The lucky guy who is accompanied by such a beauty is a handsome Asian young man wearing a black suit, neatly combed hair, and a neat oily hair.

"Hey Lacey! Look here!"

"Lacie, strike your sexiest pose!"

"Lacie, what is your relationship with the man next to you? Are you a couple?"

Holding Lu Qi's arm, Lacey accepted the interview with the red carpet host with a happy face:

"Mr. Mars is the producer of this movie. As his good friend, I just came here to express my support. It's not what you think..."

"You guys talk first, I'll excuse you for a moment..."

While Lacey was being photographed and interviewed by the media, Lu Qi couldn't help but greet Michael when he saw him getting out of a long limo.

"Hey, man!"

After a passionate hug with Michael, Lu Qi discovered that his family was also attending the premiere with Michael!

Jimmy, Tracy and Amanda were all dressed up to attend. The funniest thing was that Jimmy, a fat guy, wore a suit and tie on his upper body, but wore sports shorts and a pair of basketball shoes on his lower body.

This kind of combination is simply a mudslide in the mix and match world!

Seeing the intimate look of Amanda holding Michael's arm, Lu Qi suddenly understood everything.

It seems that Michael has reconciled with his family, and they are very proud of Michael's transformation into a film producer...

That's good, at least when Michael goes home, he no longer has to sit alone in the boudoir, drink alone, cry alone...

At this time, Solomon, who was accompanied by his female companion, walked out of the theater. When he saw Lu Qi and Michael who were talking, he couldn't help but open his arms and greeted warmly:

"Oh! Michael! Alex!"

"Solomon!"

The two of them came forward, opened their arms, and hugged Solomon respectively.

"Hahaha, we succeeded!"

"Yeah! We made it!!"

Seeing Michael and Solomon as happy as two bouncing children, Lu Qi couldn't help but smile and echoed:
Chapter completed!
