Chapter 1

“One night of passion, a lifetime of regret!”

“……”

“Fatty Zhou, speak clearly. Who did I scam?” Qin Yu rubbed his chin, thought for a moment, and said.

“I just saw that she was lonely and comforted her. I didn’t actually do anything.”

“Pfft~”

Fatty Zhou looked at him with disdain. Others might not know the inside story, but as his manager, how could he not?

When this guy was filming *Swords of Legends*, he took advantage of the situation.

He ruined Yang Mi.

As if that wasn't enough, he actually set his sights on the newcomer, Reba.

He didn't know if Qin Yu was stupid or just driven by his lower half. Didn't he know these two women were from the same company?

At least pick an artist from a different company to ruin…

Now look, Yang Mi had discovered the suspicious behavior.

After it leaked privately, Tang Ren, Rong Xinda, and other entertainment companies were all up in arms.

It turned out this guy had hooked up with far more than just those two.

They were all the top starlets of various companies, and all of them were rising stars with potential.

Would their companies not take this seriously?

They joined forces to blacklist you, you scumbag.

2 Heart-fluttering, a youth film that leaves people wanting more; the little follower, Bai Lu!

“Forget it. You’ve offended a whole group of companies that you can’t afford to provoke. I can’t protect you anymore.”

“Take this.”

Qin Yu took the card.

“There are two million in here. Added to the money you earned before, that’s nearly ten million—enough for you to retire on.”

Looking at the card in his hand, Qin Yu felt a warmth in his heart.

Don't let Fatty Zhou’s harsh words fool you; he was actually quite good to him.

He hadn't expected him to be able to secure a termination fee from the stingy Boss Huang.

This was something he hadn't anticipated.

After hesitating for a moment, Qin Yu looked at Fatty Zhou and said.

“Fatty, why don’t you stop working at this company? Come work with me. That boss is no good.”

“He can’t even protect his own people.”

“……”

Zhou Daxiang rolled his eyes. With the way you play around, even Huayi might not be able to protect you.

Why blame the boss?

“Follow you for what? To starve to death?”

“No, we’re going to make movies!”

“……”

“Fatty, why are you walking so fast?”

Qin Yu shouted at Zhou Daxiang’s back.

But Fatty Zhou walked faster and faster, disappearing through the main gate in no time.

Make movies?

I’d rather go starve to death…

Zhou Daxiang muttered to himself.

He thought Qin Yu had some brilliant plan, but he didn't expect him to just be throwing money into the water.

You, an artist who can't even act properly, want to make movies?

Fatty Zhou figured that, looking back, he might see Qin Yu begging under the overpass in the capital.

At that time, he’d toss him a couple of coins…

“Hey, forget it!”

Qin Yu smiled. Since Fatty Zhou didn't want to, then so be it.

He could do it himself.

Starting from 2009, he had collected so many skills over the past two years.

Making a movie wasn't difficult.

He had stockpiled quite a few scripts.

He also had plenty of director skill cards.

And the acting skill card he had just plucked from Reba.

That silly, cute girl was a SSR card; she had dropped so many skill cards.

At the time, he really couldn't resist the temptation…

He turned his head, smiling, and prepared to leave.

But suddenly, he noticed a little girl beside him.

“Bai Lu, no need to see me off. I’ve already terminated my contract with the company; you don’t need to follow me anymore.”

Qin Yu looked at the green, youthful Bai Lu in front of him, then smiled and took a thick red envelope from his pocket.

“Here, thank you for taking care of me this past year. We’ll meet again in the world of martial arts!”

Then, patting the girl’s little head, Qin Yu left with a flourish.

After getting into the car, Qin Yu pulled out a cigarette.

He had to plan his next steps carefully.

Although he was being secretly blacklisted by many companies,

that didn't stop him from continuing to scam his way through the entertainment industry.

After all, this wasn't a matter of principle; it was all consensual.

Even God couldn't control it, and the authorities wouldn't blacklist him.

It was just that his reputation was a little bit tarnished.

Qin Yu felt he needed to redeem himself. While the situation hadn't escalated further, he needed to quickly restore his bright and upright image.

A scumbag persona didn't matter in private, but once it was exposed,

it would corrupt the children.

“What kind of movie should I make to redeem myself?”

Qin Yu flipped through the scripts he had plucked from the starlets over the past two years.

*The Wandering Earth*?

No, that won't work. It requires too much money, and it doesn't seem to help with image restoration.

*Goodbye Mr. Loser*?

That would have a slight bonus; audiences still like comedians.

But Qin Yu was a bit worried—would the contrast be too jarring?

He hadn't taken the comedian route before.

TBD, TBD.

*A Cool Fish*, *Lucy*, *Now You See Me*…

The parallel world wasn't quite the same as his past life; some movies and songs from his past life hadn't appeared in this world.

But after looking at so many, Qin Yu felt none of them were quite right.

The movies were good, but they weren't suitable.

Flipping through them again, he suddenly discovered the first movie script he had plucked from Liu Shishi.

【*Flipped*!】

With a light tap, the script in his mind slowly flipped open.

Qin Yu had seen this movie in his past life; it was hailed as the purest youth movie.

The movie wasn't like traditional youth films with love triangles, abortions, alcoholism, or fights.
