Chinatown in Los Angeles, USA

In the disgusting narrow street, a cat jumped off the smelly trash can, and made a shrill cry just as it landed.

"Fuck your mother!"

A man yelled and jumped up, and the cat whose tail was stepped on quickly ran into the alley next to it.

"Dry!"

The man smelling of alcohol spat on the ground, then raised his head and poured the little yellow soup left in the wine bottle down his throat in one go.

"Damn, it's gone again!"

Throwing away the empty wine bottle, the man took a few steps unsteadily.

"Chen Peng?"

A voice came from behind the man.

"Who? Who called me?"

The man turned his head blankly with squinted eyes.

The next moment, he only saw a cold light flashing across his eyes.

"you……"

The man's hand caressed his throat.

Blood gushed out from between the fingers.

"Goodbye..."

A gust of night wind blew by, and the moonlight emerged from behind layers of dark clouds.

A handsome face appeared in the darkness.

The young man lowered his head and smiled at the dead body lying on the ground.

"Sorry, someone bought your life."

"Is he dead?"

A boy about seven or eight years old with his back on his back stood beside the statue of Uncle McDonald's and asked a man with his head up.

The boy's face had obvious five finger prints, and the blood at the corner of his mouth hadn't been scratched.The weather in December was very thin, and a pair of thin arms were exposed to the cold wind, with bruises on them.

"Dead, go home and watch the news today."

The man in the baseball cap sat on the bench beside him, talking casually while flicking his cell phone.

"How many people die in the United States every day, what qualifications does he have to be on TV?"

The boy showed a sneer that didn't match his age.

"If he doesn't come back to ask my mother for money in two days, it means he's really dead."

"Believe it or not, it's up to you."

The man raised his head, revealing his face covered by a baseball cap.

A handsome face, white and clean, like a fresh graduate with a little childishness.

"But you have to give me my reward."

The boy looked at him for a while, then turned around and walked into the burger shop.

After a while he came out with a glass of soda in his hand.

"Well, yes."

The boy handed the soda to the man.

"The reward for killing my father."

The man in the baseball cap smiled and took it, got up and patted his head.

"Next time you have a business introduction to me."

As he spoke, the man disappeared into the busy traffic at night with a relaxed pace.

The boy kept his stubborn mouth shut and looked in the direction in which the man disappeared.

Holding the shoulder strap of the schoolbag with both hands, the boy kicked the pebbles under his feet and was about to walk into the alley beside him.

"Ming Tsai! It's amazing!"

A mother-in-law stumbled out from the side street.

"Mingzi, something happened to your father, go home with your mother-in-law!"

The mother-in-law kept waving at the boy and shouted anxiously.

The boy named Ming Tsai turned his head slowly.

A smile bloomed from the corner of his cracked mouth.

"Everyone's life in this world can be measured by price."

A man wearing a baseball cap walked into a coffee shop and sat down in front of a man in a suit and leather shoes.

"Some people's lives can be worth millions, and some people's lives are only worth a bottle of soda."

He put the soda in his hand on the table.

On the coffee table covered with a high-grade tablecloth, a circle of watermarks suddenly seeped out.

"I, 'Diamond', have been in this industry for ten years, and I am well-known. I have always been innocent. You are the one who pays for your life, but the one who sets the price—it can only be me!"

His hands were folded, his chin was slightly raised, and the man's eyes under the baseball cap were extremely black and bright.

"Then, let me judge next, the life you want - how much is it worth?"

"it is good!"

The bearded Director Peng looked at the monitor and said calmly.

"Prepare for the next scene! Try to finish the next shot before the wind blows."

The assistant director looked up at the sky, and immediately asked all departments to prepare for the next shot, from scene management, props to blasters, everyone was busy.

The whole scene seemed orderly.

Compact, efficient, and no nonsense, this is the hallmark of Peng Dao's team.

Director Peng never shoots the same scene more than three times. If he still can't pass after three times, then the actors are asked to leave directly.

It is not that no actor has tried to challenge his authority with the backing of someone behind him, but this director who is said to have a gangster background has never lost in the so-called confrontation of forces in the circle.

He has a back, has power, and is even more powerful.

Since the early 90s, he started shooting action movies, and Director Peng has the title of "Master of Violence" in the industry.

His person is just like his movie, full of mechanical beauty and bloody violence from fist to flesh. While rushing to the bone-piercing coldness, the blood in the heart also rises and falls with the scene of blood flying and bullets. .

Numerous trophies and a box office accumulation of almost astronomical prices prove all this.

It’s just that after the reunification, the Hong Kong shootout film market has gradually declined. Director Peng’s violent films have dropped from three or four a year to the current situation where one film in three or four years is considered good.

He also had to switch careers to make a documentary, leading this group of old men from the scene where the bullets were flying all over to the forest and desert.

It is precisely because of this that when Cui Jingfan and the Hong Kong martial arts brother jointly invited him to come out again to co-produce a movie, he was very excited.

It's just that this kind of excitement didn't last long, and it disappeared after the news that the elder brother's son was involved in drugs was announced.

The funds are gone, the protagonist is gone, and the dream of being able to shoot the last shootout film in his life at the age of 60 is gone.

Just when he was about to wash his hands, an American approached him.

Brand new "City of Diamonds" script, more funds, post-production team in the United States, filming across the Atlantic, but the protagonist has to appoint a person, a person who was once recommended by Cui Jingfan, but it was unknown at the time, so he didn't know much about it. Actors in mind——

Director Peng looked at the man on the sidelines looking down at the script.

Still wearing the baseball cap from the show, the man took the coffee from the assistant with one hand, then looked up and smiled.

The assistant beside him saw him smile, and also showed a bright smile, which was enough to drive away the cold of winter.

Director Peng sighed.

The assistant who was busy in and out of him was the second son of the famous "Atlantis" in the American film industry, and he was also the foreigner who found him, Leo Oscar Brand...

Well, I have to admit that this actor named "Mu Yuanxiu" not only has an amazing background, but also his strength should not be underestimated.

He doesn't care whether he has only one year of acting experience, or whether he is a newcomer winner of a well-known domestic film award, he only knows one thing - this 30-year-old man is the man he has seen for so many years as a director. The most "bloody" "killer".

Just behind the monitor, he looked at the camera.

The moonlight shone on the man's pale cheeks, and then he slowly raised his head.

A pair of emotionless eyes, like inorganic glass, appeared behind the lens.

But there was a smile in those eyes.

It was the smile that only a "judge" would have, not the smile of an ordinary killer, after he had killed countless people and covered his hands with blood.

With just one shot, he knew that the role of "Diamond" was none other than Mu Yuanxiu!

If he hadn't clearly seen Mu Yuanxiu's resume, which clearly stated his few shooting experiences in the past few months, Director Peng would almost have thought that the young man in front of the camera was a man with decades of experience. Old drama.

Or, he is really a person who once controlled the life and death of others, and stepped on the lives of others...

"The new script is good, much more tense than the original one."

Mu Yuanxiu said while marking the key points on the script with a colored pen.

He liked the director's way of working very much, and Mu Yuanxiu even raised his requirements for himself.

If Director Peng’s requirement for actors is to pass three times, then he has one requirement for himself: because Cui Jingfan beside him, whether it is the movie he co-produced with him before, has a good reputation in the industry. That's right, unless there is a problem with the cooperating actor, Cui Jingfan has always been a real "Cui Yiyi".

"The original plot was too single, focusing only on action scenes and blasting effects. The new version has a richer plot."

"The original script was tailor-made for the son of the first brother in Hong Kong."

Cui Jingfan sat beside him, receiving the final makeup from the makeup artist.

"You also know that firstly, the little prince's acting skills are limited, so he couldn't follow the plot. Secondly, the big brother himself took the action-oriented route, as long as the script is smooth and has a little sense of humor. .”

"Yuanxiu, I modified this script, it's pretty good, right?"

Leo stood beside Mu Yuanxiu, looking at him with bright green eyes.

"Yes, I still have two brushes."

Mu Yuanxiu praised without hesitation.

"Hee hee, I just want the best for you..."

Leo blushed and scratched his head.

For this script, he worked hard for a long time.

This script was completed by Mu Yuanxiu when he was filming "The Way Back" in the mountains.

In addition to taking care of Mu Yuanxiu's life, Leo insisted on revising the script word by word in a paper notebook in the limited free time when the basic electricity was not guaranteed.Finally, after the filming on the way home, the manuscript was handed over to Daniel, and he was responsible for finding someone to translate it into Chinese and send it to Director Peng, and then hand it over to the company for further general planning.

It's not that he hasn't participated in the creation and shooting of movies before, but it's really the first time that he has done so personally and painstakingly.

The people in the company only thought that he was bent on exploring the Asian market, but he knew that everything he did was for the man in front of him... the man who made him decide to devote his whole life.

"What does this scene mean?"

Mu Yuanxiu laughed when he heard his boast, and pointed to the script.

Leo hastily bent over to explain to him.

Cui Jingfan looked at the two people around him, seeing them interacting so naturally, smiling, nodding tacitly, and sometimes smiling knowingly.

It seems that this "Mu Yuanxiu" has already found his own happiness.

He looked up at the stars in the Los Angeles sky.

My own "Mu Yuanxiu" is gone, and this "Mu Yuanxiu" also has a home,

So, where is your happiness?

Or, is a person like him doomed to be lonely all his life?

In the messy office, folders and papers were scattered all over the place.

Seeing the court summons in front of him and the board's abolition resolution on the other side lined up side by side, Wang Zhichen clenched his fists with a ferocious face.

Giving bribes, accepting bribes, disrupting the market, controlling stock prices, the accumulative accumulative counts of crimes can probably lead to jail time.

Poor management, damage to the company's image, time-limited resignation, the entertainment empire he built, those so-called shareholders who only followed him to get dividends actually abandoned him at this time! !

"Mr. Wang, the investigation has come out."

Kevin walked in quietly from outside the door.

"After Xiao Ai's husband had an accident, Xiao Ai gave part of Weiyuan's shares to Mu Yuanxiu. Weiyuan's recent series of major decisions and investments have nothing to do with Mu Yuanxiu. Reporting us... was also planned by Mu Yuanxiu before he went to the United States to film. The company's stock price has plummeted during this period, and Weiyuan Group took advantage of the chaos and has already controlled almost one-third of our company's stock... I'm afraid this time Your dismissal is also..."

"Mu Yuanxiu, I want you to die!"

Wang Zhichen threw the summons and the revocation letter upwards.

It all started because of that man——Mu!Far!build!
