Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

"Go on, what are you doing standing still?" Brother Bao urged.

But at this moment, Yafen and Lucy walked towards Chen Zhao.

The expressions of Li He and Brother Bao froze.

Yafen and Lucy are real Hollywood A-list stars. They have become well-known actresses through Steven's "The Big Apple".

Looking at these two big stars, they are chatting happily with Chen Zhao at the moment.

"Can you really do whatever you want with your baby?" Li He muttered.

Brother Bao's eyes flickered and he felt a little regretful.

If he knew this would happen, he should not have let Li He leave Chen Zhao just now.

In this way, when Yafen and Lucy go over there, Li He can also take the opportunity to get to know them.

Chen Ke looked at Chen Zhao, she knew that Chen Zhao knew Yafen.

But it seemed that he and Lucy were very familiar with each other.

Judging from the way they were talking and laughing, they seemed to have an unusual relationship.

Brother Bao wanted to let Li He go over and join in the fun.

At this moment, James came over.

"Miss Chen."

"Mr. James." Chen Ke greeted.

"Hello Mr. James." Li He also took the initiative to say hello.

"Hello young man, are you also an actor from China?"

"Yes, Mr. James, I hope we have the opportunity to cooperate."

"Haha... I hope so." James smiled: "Ms. Chen, do you see that person over there? That is Mr. Rasfa, the chairman of PLM Company. Come with me and say hello."

Chen Ke, Li He and Brother Bao all took a deep breath.

The chairman of PLM Company is the pinnacle of power in Hollywood.

But at this moment, Rasfa also saw Chen Zhao.

Immediately walked towards Chen Zhao.

"Chen, I heard that you have a daughter. How about your daughter being my goddaughter? I will make her the most shining star in Hollywood."

"I promised Steven."

"What? That bastard, why do you promise him but not me?"

"Who asked you to say it now?"

…

Chen Ke, Li He and Brother Bao all looked shocked.

"Mr. James, does he know Mr. Rasfa?"

"Yes, they are very good friends." James said, "It was your cousin who helped me tell Mr. Rasfa that I could become the chief director."

Chen Ke took a breath of cold air.

Li He and Brother Bao were dumbfounded. What's going on?

Isn't that the person who comes here to eat and drink?

How come all of a sudden, not only do I know a big star, but I also know the chairman of PLM Company?

"Since your cousin is here, you don't need me to introduce Mr. Rasfa to you. You can go there by yourself. I believe your cousin will help you introduce him."

After James left, Brother Bao and Li He both looked at Chen Zhao.

No wonder I was able to get a role in Hollywood because I had such a cousin as my backer.

"Miss Chen, why don't we come together?" Brother Bao said.

"My cousin and I don't have a good relationship."

"We are all one family, what's the good thing?" Brother Bao persuaded.

But at this moment, Steven walked in from outside.

All eyes were on Steven.

He is the protagonist tonight. Even among the male and female protagonists, they are not as dazzling as Steven.

A godlike movie, a godlike box office record.

Now there is a word spread throughout Hollywood, and the six major companies are saying that as long as Steven is willing to accept employment from their company, the script can be chosen at will, the budget can be used at will, the actors can be selected at will, and the editing rights will also belong to Steven.

The cumulative global box office is 3.5 billion US dollars. What is this concept?

Last year, the total global box office of all Hollywood movies was US$39.9 billion, which means that one of Steven's movies accounted for 9% of the global box office of Hollywood.

Last year, the total box office in North America was US$11 billion, and the North American box office of "The Wild One" was US$2 billion, which is close to 20% of the box office share.

You know, the total box office of Japan, the third largest box office last year, was only US$2 billion.

Hollywood is the place with the most developed film industry and the place where box office comes first.

This box office is enough to put Steven at the top of all directors.

What's more, this movie has been unanimously recognized by critics.

Even the most sophisticated filmmaker would have a hard time saying no.

It can be said that "The Detective" is a perfect combination of art and commercial movies.

And Steven's own family knows his own affairs. This deified movie actually does not have that much core and meaning.

It can be said that everything is conjecture.

Although Chen Zhao never admitted it, Steven understood.

Chen Zhao was the one who helped him the most.

Someone who even pushed him to the pinnacle of his career.

Steven looked for Chen Zhao in the crowd, and when he saw Chen Zhao and Rasfa, he gave them the middle finger.

Chen Zhao and Rasfa were not polite to Steven, and both raised their middle fingers.

But at this time, Steven couldn't go directly to say hello to Chen Zhao.

He needs to go up to the front desk and say a few words.

Along the way, acquaintances kept coming over to say hello to Steven or get close to him.

"Your cousin knows Steven?" Brother Bao was shocked.

Steven's move was not hidden at all.

Many people in the banquet hall saw it.

"They are good friends." Chen Ke was also a little jealous.

Brother Bao and Li He took a deep breath.

At this moment, both Brother Bao and Li He felt a little regretful.

Only now did Li He realize that they were here to eat and drink.

But I know the host of this banquet.

Ding ding——

Steven tapped the body of the goblet with a spoon.

"Ladies and gentlemen, be still."

"I'm very happy that you all came to my film celebration banquet. Of course, I also want to thank Rasfa for sponsoring this banquet." Steven was the first to make a joke about Rasfa.

The guests at the scene all laughed in agreement and joked that Steven used less than 50 million U.S. dollars to earn PLM 2 billion U.S. dollars and also boosted PLM's stock price.

This ability to create profits may have surpassed all directors in the world.

This year, PLM's revenue, total box office revenue and stock price are probably higher than those of other companies in the six major companies.

Rasfa would probably be happy to have a hundred banquets, let alone one banquet.

"In addition to thanking Rasfa for giving me the money to make the movie, I also want to thank another close friend for helping me, Chen. Thank you for your support."

Chen Ke, Li He and Brother Bao all looked shocked. At such a celebration banquet, Steven actually thanked a friend so solemnly?

And this person is still Chen Zhao who seems to have no presence at the banquet.

"Of course, he is still my goddaughter's father." Steven smiled and said, "Chen, can you bring my goddaughter here?"

"I object." Rasfa said loudly: "Chen, we met first. Your daughter should be my goddaughter, not this old bastard's."

There was a burst of laughter, but many guests looked at Chen Zhao and little Ge Lin in his arms with envy.
