Brother Dao Took the Entertainment Industry by Storm, Fans Beg Me Not to Kill Anymore

Chapter 1055: Who is truly arrogant and rude?

"Brother Xiao?"

Zhou Junhao was puzzled by Xiao He's pause. Although he couldn't see Xiao He's gaze through the sunglasses, he could roughly guess the area, so he looked in that direction.

"What's wrong?"

Song Zhe behind him was also asking questions, while his eyes warily scanned his surroundings.

"fine."

Xiao He pushed up his sunglasses, finally shifting his gaze away from Han Zaiyu.

Most of the people who came out with him this time were outsiders and didn't know much about the past grievances between him and Han Zaiyu, so Xiao He didn't bother to bring it up again.

Anyway, he and Han Zaiyu had already settled their score long ago.

Xiao He had already retaliated against all the targeting and malice he had received back then.

Even now, when he sees old friends again, he feels nothing at all.

Moreover, this old friend doesn't seem to be doing too well. I had heard some things about him before because of the Shield Curtain.

Now that they are no longer on the same level, he has no need to pay any attention to such a guy anymore.

"Let's go."

Xiao He spoke calmly, as if he had only seen some insignificant piece of trash.

-

"Stop looking."

An Yuanshan said with some reluctance, "He is indeed different now than before. We had such a bad falling out back then, so it's best not to let him think about us now."

Since the failure of "Twelve Evil Surnames", Han Jae-woo's resources have been much worse than before.

I used to think that I could use this resource to enter the Shield, then Hollywood, and finally the international market, become an international superstar, and go global.

As a result, the love of capital comes and goes quickly.

Especially someone like Han Zaiyu, who left himself no way out when he left, found that when he returned, the place was already occupied and there was no longer a place for him.

No matter where you are, this industry is cruel.

Not to mention that Han Zaiyu himself does not have the absolute strength to crush everything.

Then we just have to accept it.

"I know."

Han Zaiyu could only sit down helplessly in the end, touching his nose with a hint of dejection, but the arrogance in his eyes was gone.

The setbacks he'd faced over the past six months had made him realize the harsh reality of the situation.

It's quite rare to encounter someone like Xiao He who simply walks away without saying a word. If it were any other old acquaintance, they would have already come over to mock him.

For some reason, Xiao He's indifferent gaze, as if he were looking at someone who was invisible, was even more ironic and made people feel very uncomfortable.

But there was nothing we could do about it.

"Hey, it's Manager El from Shield Curtain!"

At that moment, An Yuanshan also saw the person they had been waiting for from the beginning and immediately reminded Han Zaiyu.

The two looked in the same direction and, sure enough, saw El Griswine walking in through the main door.

This is none other than Manager El, who was previously in charge of the film and television adaptation of "Twelve Evils," and also the person who helped Han Jae-woo secure script resources.

He placed his bets on Han Zaiyu, given the huge copyright and fame of "The Twelve Evil Surnames," and the result was predictable.

Since then, not only have Han Zaiyu's resources been damaged, but his status within the Shield has also plummeted.

Therefore, El was actually very unwilling to see Han Jae-woo.

Han Zaiyu knew that they had implicated Manager El, so he hadn't dared to take the initiative to contact him.

But nowadays, development is really not going well.

They didn't want to miss any opportunity that might allow them to rise again.

"Quickly, let's stop him!"

An Yuanshan pulled Han Zaiyu up, unwilling to miss this only important opportunity.

Before they could even reach Manager El, the familiar middle-aged man had already walked towards Xiao He and the others with a smile.

Immediately, both of them stopped in their tracks.

"Is that Manager El?"

Han Zaiyu opened his eyes wide in disbelief, his tone tinged with skepticism.

He simply couldn't imagine that the foreign manager, who had always been so arrogant towards them, could now be so friendly and approachable.

After all, the Shield Screen is almost entirely the same, exhibiting strong xenophobia and a whole hierarchy of contempt.

Even if they dislike Chinese actors and prefer to use other Asian actors for those roles, deep down they look down on all Asians equally.

No matter how much Han Zaiyu and his team tried to curry favor, Manager El never gave them a kind look during the entire cooperation period.

They look down on the people here, yet they still have to swallow their pride and make money off the local market—that's how arrogant they are!

But now...

"Oh, is this Mr. Xiao?"

Xiao He was halfway there when someone called him back.

As for why he wasn't simply stopped by someone?

That was because the moment Manager El approached him, the bodyguards immediately surrounded him, forming a tall human wall that blocked El from seeing his face.

Fortunately, Xiao He stopped this time.

"Who are you?"

Xiao He glanced at Manager El. His excellent memory had actually made him remember Manager El well when he was investigating the upper echelons of Shield, but at this moment he had to pretend that he did not know him at all.

Xiao He even displayed an unprecedented arrogance.

He didn't even bother to take off his sunglasses, nor did he turn his head. He merely tilted his head slightly as a symbolic gesture, raised an eyebrow, and asked with a hint of provocation, "What's up?"

"Well--"

Manager El was completely taken aback by Xiao He's arrogance and rudeness, which seemed to be entirely different from the person they knew.

Furthermore, this person was so rude that even the bodyguards didn't move aside, and he blocked El's way, preventing El from even getting close enough to speak.

This made El, who was always arrogant and rude to others, very uncomfortable.

But he had to suppress his anger and keep a smile on his face: "Mr. Xiao may not know me, so let me introduce myself. I am El Griswyn of Shield Screen Pictures, the general manager in charge of film and television adaptation projects. I am currently working on our latest important project..."

Before he could finish speaking, Xiao He waved his hand and said, "Ah, I know. But I remember the company has already replied to you that I don't have any free time this year and can't participate in your role. So is there anything else?"

El's words were immediately cut off.

His purpose in coming here was indeed solely to see Xiao He; it was a mission that Shield Curtain issued immediately after learning that Xiao He was going to attend the Cannes Film Festival.

This task was one that El, whose status had been greatly diminished, managed to secure with great difficulty.

But he didn't realize that the conditions Shield Curtain could offer had already been rejected once by Linghui Entertainment.

If he were to personally approach Xiao He now, he would only be rejected again in person.

What's the use of it?

It's completely useless.

"If there's nothing else, we'll be going now."

Xiao He put on his sunglasses, ignoring everyone, and walked forward without looking back.

Only Manager El and Han Zaiyu, standing in the distance, were left bewildered in the wind.
