*Chapter 8: You’d Be a Fool Not to Say Yes to This Deal*

Who wouldn’t say yes to such a good deal?

After making Mia fall into a deep sleep again, thanks to his impressive stamina, Wayne took a cab by himself and headed to the bar. Mia had just recovered after a full day of rest.

“Maybe it’s time to buy a car,” Wayne thought on the way.

However, in America at this time, aside from pickup trucks, regular sedans looked pretty outdated to him. He wasn’t impressed.

Imagine a guy in 2023 with a love for aesthetics...

Chapter 7: The Four Great Beauties, a Feast for the Eye!

Mia couldn't believe how fast the night had passed. She woke up to the scent of delicious food wafting through the air. Wayne, the stud she had met the previous day, had thoughtfully ordered takeout for her, knowing she'd be hungry after their marathon play session.

She devoured her meal, her eyes never leaving Wayne's muscular physique. His body was a testament to his dedication to physical fitness, and Mia couldn't help but appreciate the view. After eating, she dragged Wayne b...

*Chapter 6: Everything's Negotiable, As Long As the Price Is Right!*

"You've got a new offer."

In an elegant café, Natalie Portman sat at a cozy window seat on the second floor, happily flipping through articles about Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones.

Although her screen time wasn't huge as a co-lead, she had the largest role among the female characters, making her essentially the female lead of the movie.

With her agency’s efforts behind her, her name also appeared in the press, gaining even more attention.

Chapter 5: Casting Selection

It took a while before Sarah took a deep breath and excitedly said, "This story is really amazing! It has comedic elements, touching moments, and most importantly, depth. As long as the filming goes well, it’s bound to be a hit!"

Wayne smiled.

He knew this too.

The movie had such a low budget, the actors weren’t big stars, and none of them had much box-office draw. The only reason it could achieve such good reviews and success was because the plot was exceptional....

Chapter 4: A Slacker Builds His Own University? This Is Pure Genius!

The next morning, Wayne and Mia arrived together at Hemera Productions, located in West Hollywood.

After a brief introduction by Sarah and a short conversation with the staff, Wayne met the screenwriter they’d hired—a young man in his mid-twenties with short golden-brown hair, black-rimmed glasses, and a somewhat thin frame.

“This is Bill Cratch, with whom we’ve worked twice before. He specializes in humorous dialogue with a comedic flair and, more importantly, work...

Chapter 3: The Script is Too Bad, I’ll Have to Do It Myself!

"Hello, Ms. Hemera."

Two hours later, neatly dressed and still full of energy, Wayne followed Mia into a pleasant café near the school. There, they met Mia's mother, Sera Hemera.

Sera Hemera glanced at Wayne's strikingly handsome face that even she found impressive, then looked at her daughter, who was clinging to Wayne’s arm. Despite her tired expression, Mia appeared more radiant than usual, and a glint flashed in Sera's eyes as a graceful smile appeared on her face.

*Chapter 2: From Today On, I Am the Capital!*

Wayne listened for a moment, then fell into deep thought. It took him more than ten minutes before his frown relaxed again.

The Film Investment System, as the name suggests, provides you with funds to invest in film projects. However, unlike most systems in typical novels, this system doesn’t require box office hits. Instead, it offers a 300% return on your investment.

This means that as long as Wayne invests in a movie, once filming and post-production are compl...

Chapter 1: What Should I Do if My Rich Girlfriend Goes Bankrupt?

SCA, officially known as the ‘School of Cinematic Arts’ at USC—wait, it's still called the ‘School of Cinema-Television’ in this era, since it’s the year 2000.

Inside a messy dorm room, the air was thick with smoke.

Wayne Anderson sat alone on the edge of the bed, one arm limp over his knee, the other holding a cigarette. Shattered beer bottles littered the floor, with golden liquid spilling everywhere—some even splashed onto his pants.

*Chapter 385: "The Expendables" Premiere*

During the filming of Captain America in Los Angeles, Link also took time to make guest appearances in the sets of The Perks of Being a Wallflower and You're Still Here.

In the former, he played the male lead’s older brother, an Olympic football star and the lead character's idol and role model. This role involved four scenes and was not too challenging.

In the latter, a documentary directed by Casey Affleck featuring Joaquin Phoenix, ...

Chapter 384: A Heart-to-Heart with Taylor

The meeting with Harvey lasted about half an hour. The atmosphere was much better than Link had anticipated, which made him even more uncertain about Harvey's true intentions.

He could only advise producer Brody Bent to be cautious when calculating the film's costs and mentioned that his relationship with Harvey wasn't as harmonious as it seemed on the surface.

Bent acknowledged this advice.

After three days of discussion and negotiation, the budget for Silver Lin...

*Chapter 383: Meeting Harvey*

In the original Captain America comics, Captain America becomes a super soldier after receiving the serum. However, since the concept of gaining strength through injections might be associated with drug use and have negative social effects, the film adaptation depicts Steve Rogers undergoing physical training first, followed by oral medication, serum injections, and exposure to Vita rays to stimulate muscle growth and complete the transformation.

Chapter 381: Big Brother-in-Law Party

After leaving the set, Link drove back to the Woolworth Building apartment, changed clothes, and took Ivanka to the wealthy villa area on the west side of Central Park, where his brother-in-law Edward Trump lived.

When Whitebeard arrived in Konoha Village, Raijin was the first to receive the news. The fact that Whitebeard was somehow connected to Naruto Uzumaki only suggested that Whitebeard was rather unlucky.

After all, Naruto Uzumaki was treated like a treasure by both the Third Hokage and Danzo in Konoha Village. They were extremely cautious about anyone getting close to Naruto, fearing that Naruto forming bonds with others might interfere with their plans.

Charlotte Linlin hadn’t expected this guy to have such a trick up his sleeve. If this move hit, it could really be deadly. Although she didn’t know what this "Dust Release" was exactly, her sixth sense was telling her it was dangerous.

If her opponent's attack landed, it would likely cause a huge problem.

Training gradually became a routine.

Matt officially joined the "Ye's Martial Arts School," and he and Anson began training together. With a fixed schedule and consistent training, days blurred into one another. Before they knew it, Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas had come and gone, and then, the New Year had already arrived.

Unfortunately, the days of Anson and Matt training side by side were numbered. Each had other things to learn, so while they continued to repor...

The air quieted slightly. Although Matt's rough and rapid breathing was still audible, this time, he managed to hold on.

Everything was eerily quiet, and the faint sounds from the street outside were so clear that one could easily mistake the room for being empty.

After a moment's hesitation, Anson spoke up, "This is why the martial arts school requires us to practice the horse stance."

Matt looked at Anson with a puzzled expression.

Anson continued to explain.

"In martial arts, a stable lower body is crucial because most of the power comes from the lower limbs. If your stance isn’t stable, then all the techniques and moves are just ...

Trembling, swaying—Matt was on the verge of giving up.
