Chapter 140: Star Lord(1/2)

Several answers popped into Lin Yuan's mind at once.

But he just thought about it for a while, and soon he didn't think much about it. After all, who he was going to meet, he would naturally know when he arrived in Xiangjiang tomorrow.

After replenishing his energy, he took a plane to Xiangjiang early the next morning.

After coming out of the airport, Lin Yuan actually felt that there was not much change from the mainland. It was as prosperous as Shanghai. There were various plaques in traditional Chinese on the streets. However, the pedestrians around him did not communicate in Mandarin, but in Cantonese.

After arriving in Xiangjiang, he was not in a hurry to call Chen Desheng.

Instead, he prepared gifts and called Donnie Yen and Zou Long in advance to tell them about their visit.

The visit to Donnie Yen was entirely due to the movie "One Man's Martial Arts".

Also as a leading actor in a movie, Donnie Yen, the kung fu superstar, provided a lot of help whether he was on the set or in the promotion of the movie.

Besides, last time the investors gave him a 10 million red envelope, he couldn't have thanked all the other stars who helped, and instead left the leading actor behind, right?

As for visiting Zou Long, there is no need to say more.

Zou Long can be said to be his "leader" in the entertainment industry. Because of him, he was able to enter Xitian Media so smoothly and transform from a group performer to an artist so smoothly.

Not to mention that the movie "One Man's Martial Arts" was recommended by Zou Long.

If it weren't for Zou Long, there would be no way this movie would have landed in Lin Yuan's hands.

The reason is very simple. Even if Zou Long can't play the role and Wang Baoqiang is available, can't the director find other martial arts actors?

You know, when I took this role, Lin Yuan had never starred in a martial arts film. If it weren't for Zou Long's recommendation, there would be no way that it would be in the director's consideration.

So after arriving in Xiangjiang, Lin Yuan visited Donnie Yen and Zou Long successively with gifts.

Donnie Yen was quite normal here. He chatted briefly and didn't sit down for a while. The other party was busy and he was busy.

On the other hand, it was Zou Long, who sat down and had lunch with him.

During the meal, Zou Long was full of praise.

"I didn't expect that in just two years, you would be more than ten times more popular than me!"

"It really makes me feel that I didn't see the wrong person at first."

To be honest, Lin Yuan's arrival made Zou Long both happy and sad.

I am happy because I did not misjudge the person. Lin Yuan is a conscientious person and there is no problem in recommending him.

Sad because, how uncomfortable does it feel to watch a newcomer not only surpass yourself but also become a popular star in a short period of time????

But Zou Long was not the kind of person who was jealous of others. He just felt uncomfortable in his heart. With the thought of bitter wine in his throat and heartache, he and Lin Yuan spent a good time together.

It wasn't until two o'clock in the afternoon that Lin Yuan dialed Chen Desheng's phone number.

"Brother Chen, I have arrived in Xiangjiang."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Desheng's enthusiastic voice came from the other end of the phone: "Are you here? Send your location and I'll come and pick you up."

About forty minutes later, Chen Desheng came over in a business car.

Opening the car door, before anyone got out of the car, a voice came over: "Why didn't you call me when you got to the airport?"

"This is not the first time I've come to Xiangjiang. I thought I'd go shopping first." Lin Yuan replied casually without mentioning the visit to Donnie Yen and Zou Long.

However, Chen Desheng didn't care and greeted Lin Yuan to get in the car.

After riding for nearly twenty minutes, the car finally stopped in front of a private estate.

Just from the grand scale of this manor, it can be seen that the status of the people living here is by no means ordinary.

When Chen Desheng saw Lin Yuan looking at the manor in front of him, he also introduced it to him: "This is the top of the Xiangjiang Mountain. How about it? You can see the entire Xiangjiang River at a glance. Isn't it nice?"

Speaking of the top of Xiangjiang Mountain.

Lin Yuan immediately had the impression that the former Governor's villa of Xiangjiang was built here. The mansion on the top of the mountain has repeatedly set housing price records in Asia. Those who can live here are either rich or noble.

This made Lin Yuan even more curious about what kind of big shot Chen Desheng brought him here to meet.

Just when Lin Yuan was holding this idea.

Several servants came out of the manor and led Lin Yuan and others into the house.

Just like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, Lin Yuan couldn't help but look at the furnishings in the room.

Soon, footsteps came from the second floor.

Before Lin Yuan could look over, Chen Desheng's voice rang next to him.

"Brother, this is the little brother I told you, Lin Yuan."

After hearing this, Lin Yuan immediately looked at the man who was going downstairs.

Now he knew why Chen Desheng called him Big Brother.

Not to mention Chen Desheng, even if he is not in the entertainment industry, when he sees this person, he has to be called big brother.

He was a little dazed. After a while, when his elder brother walked up to him, Lin Yuan subconsciously shook hands to express his goodwill: "Hello, Brother Jackie Chan, I am Lin Yuan."

Jackie Chan looked Lin Yuan up and down, patted Lin Yuan's shoulder enthusiastically, and said, "Desheng always praises you in front of me. You have contributed a lot to his movie's box office success this time!"

After saying that, Jackie Chan pointed to the sofa in the living room and said with a smile on his face: "Sit down first, sit down and chat slowly."

Lin Yuan was not stupid. He knew that today's game was not arranged by Chen Desheng, but by Jackie Chan himself. However, with his status, he could not take the initiative to speak. Chen Desheng was at most a messenger.

Because of this, he was a little curious, wondering when he fell into the eyes of this elder brother.

Although he had analyzed before that by helping Chen Desheng, he had some relationship with his elder brother in disguise, but he did not expect that the two of them would meet so quickly, and that he would be called over by his elder brother so quickly.

What he didn't know was that there were three reasons for this.

First, Lin Yuan has strength, and this strength does not refer to his connections in the entertainment industry. After all, in front of Jackie Chan, Lin Yuan's relationship is not worth mentioning at all.

This strength refers to Lin Yuan's acting skills.

If Lin Yuan was just an ordinary little fresh meat, would Jackie Chan still be so enthusiastic?

Obviously not.

Secondly, Lin Yuan helped Chen Desheng promote the movie.

Although from Lin Yuan's perspective, since he stars in this movie, he should promote it, but that cannot be said. Even if Lin Yuan posts on Weibo, it is still publicity and he has fulfilled his responsibility as a leading actor.

To put it simply, it is a feeling of friendship to help, and it is a duty not to help.

Couldn't Kung Fu superstar Donnie Yen invite friends in the industry to help promote it like Lin Yuan?

But what if after such publicity, the box office is still a flop and the movie's reputation is so bad?

So even Donnie Yen didn't put so much effort into promoting the movie.

Under such circumstances, Lin Yuan was able to mobilize his own connections and invite so many celebrity friends to help promote it. It can be said that he did Chen Desheng a big favor.

It is precisely because of this that Jackie Chan feels that Lin Yuan, a junior, has a good character and is worth getting to know.

As for the last point, it is an unwritten rule passed down from the Xiangjiang entertainment industry to support the younger generations.

A person like this has good character, strength, and more importantly, a junior status.

With the combination of the three, Jackie Chan naturally wanted to quickly win him over to his faction before he took sides.

Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and where there are rivers and lakes, there are circles, and factions will appear.

Due to various factors, Lin Yuan naturally met Jackie Chan in advance.

After the three of them sat down.

Chen Desheng also talked about what happened to Lin Yuan when he was filming.

When he heard that Lin Yuan had a good foundation and could handle two moves with Donnie Yen, Jackie Chan's eyes suddenly lit up.

Not only is he a martial arts star, he is also a ceiling figure in Chinese action films.

In the past, when action movies were popular, there were quite a few martial arts actors. However, with the transformation of action movies, the number of martial arts actors suddenly decreased.

Even among the young actors nowadays, there are not many who can do martial arts scenes.

Under such circumstances, Jackie Chan naturally showed a lot of interest in Lin Yuan.

Just when he was about to let Lin Yuan show off a few tricks, a servant suddenly came over: "Sir, a guest is here."

Jackie Chan’s guest?

After hearing what the servant said, Lin Yuan immediately looked over.

After seeing the middle-aged man with white hair standing behind the servant, Lin Yuan's expression immediately froze.

For a moment, he felt that he had seen it wrong, but when he looked carefully, he found that he had not seen it wrong at all!

Star Master???

The moment he saw Master Xing, his mind couldn't help but buzz.

He actually met two of Xiangjiang’s “Double Mondays” today!

"Brother Long, who is this?" Zhou Xingchi asked tentatively when he saw that there seemed to be an outsider next to Jackie Chan.

"This is a rising star in the Mainland. It only took him two years to go from a bit player to the level of a first-line star in the Mainland." Jackie Chan heard Lin Yuan's words in one sentence.
