Chapter 203: Chapter 203: Dangerous Characters! Chapter 203: Chapter 203: Dangerous Characters! Shen Yan had left Shen City again, moving into the final stage of filming.

When her plane landed, the media had already captured Shen Yan’s itinerary.

The cast of “Black Shadow” had been revealed, and the itineraries of people like Shen Yan were impossible to keep secret.

With the itinerary exposed, Fireworks fans had run ahead to the airport to meet her, but Shen Yan had taken another passage, so the local fans waiting for her didn’t encounter her at all.

Knowing there were fans at the airport, Shen Yan asked Liu Su to buy some iced beverages for them.

It was a bit hot during this season in the Southwest Region.

Having an iced drink was just perfect.

The fans who couldn’t meet Shen Yan ended up receiving the high-end iced beverages she bought for them, which instantly touched the Fireworks fans.

Soon, topics about receiving iced beverages instead of meeting at the airport began to spread online.

Shen Yan’s presence also appeared before the public, as everyone knew she was filming in the Southwest District.

The capable Fireworks fans had already figured out the location of the film crew and sent all the gifts they wanted to give, with others who couldn’t make it asking other Fireworks fans to help deliver the gifts to Shen Yan.

As soon as Shen Yan arrived at the film crew, people started joking with her.

“Shen Yan, your fans are really enthusiastic. You haven’t even arrived, and the gifts are already delivered to the set.”

“Here! That huge pile is all from your fans, with all sorts of gifts.”

“I’m starting to feel jealous and envious!”

“I remember your fans are called the Fireworks fans, right?”

Shen Yan had just greeted her seniors when she turned her head to find everyone teasing and making fun of her.

Seeing that pile of gifts, Shen Yan was also quite moved.

She and her Fireworks fans were strangers, yet she was unexpectedly on the minds of so many people, feeling an indescribable sentiment.

Li Yanbai finished touching up his makeup and came out. Seeing Shen Yan surrounded by those gifts, he smiled, “With you here, ‘Black Shadow’ doesn’t even need to spend on promotion. Just look at Director Chen, his smile stretches to his ears every day.”

The people around couldn’t help but laugh upon hearing this.

Director Chen, directing the prop team on the other side, heard the laughter behind him and the glances in his direction, sure they were talking behind his back.

“Li Yanbai, what bad things are you saying about me over there again? Don’t tarnish my reputation,” he called out, which set off another round of laughter from everyone.

The atmosphere immediately livened up.

Shen Yan asked Xiao Zhao to carefully record the source of each gift, and to make a separate note for those without a name.

She had to properly return the favor for these gifts from the fans!

Some artists just took flowers or small gifts from fans for granted, not taking it as seriously as Shen Yan did.

Xiao Zhao also joined the Fireworks fans’ group, keeping an eye on the movement within the group, occasionally revealing permissible tidbits to everyone as a fan.

While sorting out the gifts, it was also possible to match them with the group and Weibo accounts.

“Your part will be filmed for about ten days. Given your acting skills, the progress will speed up. Director Chen proposed to everyone that once your part is finished, we’ll organize a small drinks party within our crew,” Li Yanbai lowered his voice slightly, “I heard some investors are coming.”

Shen Yan remembered the drinks party she attended in Shen City and frowned slightly.

“You’re the female lead, and you’ll definitely need to be there,” Li Yanbai continued, “At the party, be cautious, don’t just drink any beverages or alcohol handed to you. I’ll pour something safe for you to drink.”

Li Yanbai’s words clearly indicated that he was aware of the character of those investors.

It was quite possible that actresses had fallen into trouble with these investors before.

The ending of “Black Shadow” wasn’t changed, and Shen Yan finished all her final scenes in six days.

What followed were the conclusive parts for the male lead.

After the leads finished their scenes, what remained was the wrap-up for the other characters.

Then came editing and submission for review, followed by negotiations with various cinemas…

On the day Shen Yan finished her parts, those investors had already scoped out the place in advance, waiting for the staff of “Black Shadow” to arrive.

Liu Su had investigated these investors’ characters and knew they liked to play games under the pretext of investing.

He was somewhat reluctant to let Shen Yan go.

Director Chen couldn’t refuse, but before departure, he reminded the younger artists to be wary.

For young assistants like Xiao Zhao, it was best not to go along.

Shen Yan was the lead actress of this movie, and since the other party had specifically requested it, they had to make an appearance.

Shen Yan didn’t refuse either.

On the way there, Liu Su’s face was dark the entire time.

“We get there, Yanyan, you don’t have to show too much respect to those people.”

“Do you think Director Chen is somewhat wary of these investors? They’re very wealthy or influential?”

Shen Yan didn’t take the investors seriously.

Liu Su wanted to scoff, “No matter how rich or powerful, they can’t compare to the Qi Family. These people love to play with these kinds of investments, and they have the means to do so at home. They follow almost every movie Director Chen works on closely.”

This was something he had just found out.

So, it seemed the other party was indeed wealthy and influential.

Faced with such people, even Director Chen and his team really couldn’t afford to refuse.

*

The place booked by the investors was a KTV club called “New Future.”

Places where you could sing and drink were all the same.

It was just a matter of class.

As soon as their several cars arrived, the entrance became bustling.

A swarm of people went in, straight into one of the large VIP rooms, where the screeching noise instantly burst into their ears,

sending a shiver down everyone’s spine.

If the older actors had arrived, it might have given them a heart attack.

“Yo! Director Chen has arrived! And Li Yanbai is here too… What are you staring at, come on in.”

The man holding the microphone, dressed in a soft suit, without a tie, and shirt mostly unbuttoned, showed off a chest that was barely attractive.

Their faces, unexpectedly young.

The one speaking even had a bit of handsomeness.

These people seemed to be only about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old.

None were over thirty.

They looked like the typical rich Second Generation or official Second Generation.

In the face of these decent-looking guys with ulterior motives, female stars were willing to accompany them.

These were of a much higher caliber than the likes of President Du whom Shen Yan had met before.

Of course.

This was only in terms of appearance.

Their character was not necessarily any better than those pot-bellied presidents.

Director Chen didn’t really want to engage with these young men, but thinking of their backgrounds, he held back,

smiling and inviting everyone to come inside.

He noticed among the group, there was one youth who looked somewhat restrained.

Ordinary-looking and with a weak presence.

If one did not scan deliberately, they would not have noticed such a person at all.

That person.

Shen Yan noticed him as soon as she entered the door.

He was wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses, discreetly obscuring the resolute light in his eyes.

He had something about him that she found very familiar.

She couldn’t put her finger on it.

But from the first glance, she tensed up; he was definitely a dangerous person!

Shen Yan’s look was subtle and did not get caught by the man.

By the time he looked up at her, Shen Yan had already sat down with the others.

Li Yanbai had deliberately left a seat between him and Shen Yan to make it convenient to look out for her.

Shen Yan was too beautiful, and since she walked in, these men had been staring at her like predators!

Their gaze was brazen, completely unhidden.

“Director Chen, this is your lead actress, isn’t it? Why don’t you introduce her?” A young man with a smirk spread his arms, leaned back on the couch, and stared intently at Shen Yan as he asked Director Chen.
