Since there was already an intention, everything else was easy to discuss.
Hanks said he could arrange for his agent to meet with him on the Hollywood Walk of Fame the next day to discuss this new film, and he also planned to invite He Yunru along.
In this way, the framework for this new film was essentially established.
Hanks turned around hastily; he couldn't stay here any longer, or he would be swarmed by paparazzi!
Meanwhile, Ling Qianhe rubbed the top of his head.
"Let's go, back."
The system prompted Lin Muci.
"Congratulations, Host, for establishing a friendly relationship with Hanks. Hanks' favorability has increased to over fifty percent."
"The script 'I'm Making Waves in the World of Scum Abuse' has the potential to become a nine-star blockbuster film. Please continue to strive!"
It was easy to imagine.
A nine-star blockbuster film required many preconditions to explode.
The configuration of two Best Actor awards certainly ensured global attention!
...
The next evening, all major global social media platforms exploded – posts and threads appeared endlessly.
[Hanks Appears at His Ex-Fiancée Vivian's Wedding... A Look Back at Hollywood's Famous Playboy Hanks' Past Girlfriends!]
[Explosive! Ling Qianhe and Hanks Get into a Fight at the Wedding Over a Woman!]
Various news reports erupted instantaneously.
Yang Weiyang forwarded the news in the group chat and @mentioned Lin Muci.
"Xiaoci, is this real? Hanks is my idol, I used to really like him and his international supermodel girlfriend back then, but I never expected that relationship to end because of his philandering."
"Xiaoci, he really rushed to Vivian's wedding, wow, was the wedding scene very lively?"
"Why did Ling Qianhe hit him, was it to defend Vivian?"
Yang Weiyang had been confused yesterday when she saw the celebration banquet and Lin Muci and Ling Qianhe leaving first.
She never expected to see such explosive news overnight! She was extremely excited, rubbing her hands together, and Lin Muci simply responded with a hum.
"The wedding was ultimately called off."
Yang Weiyang still felt a bit regretful.
However, Lin Muci thought to herself, fortunately, the wedding was stopped, otherwise, the situation would likely have been even more embarrassing – she couldn't imagine how explosive the news would be today if Hanks had really died from a misfired gun during the duel.
Compared to that, Ling Qianhe knocking him unconscious seemed like minor news.
Yang Weiyang was still worried.
"Qianhe is too brave, but he punched Hanks, I just don't think it's quite right..."
Yang Weiyang sighed repeatedly.
"He punched Hanks, will Hanks retaliate?"
"Although he is a Best Actor and Hanks is also a Best Actor, Hollywood is ultimately a place where foreigners hold power... He caused such a big scene, how will it be resolved?"
Foreign media was also in an uproar.
Paparazzi had even used drones to secretly film the wedding, and the images of Hanks lying on the ground, Ling Qianhe throwing a punch, and Vivian's extremely nervous expression were all captured and posted on the famous gossip tabloid, The Times Sun.
Everyone was wide-eyed as they consumed the gossip.
[What? Brother Qianhe and Hanks got into a fight?]
[Brother Qianhe didn't lose, did he?]
[The user above, everyone else is worrying about his future, and you're only worried if he won the fight... and if his handsome face got hurt. Where is your conscience!]
Fans were indeed quite worried.
But.
[Qianhe is quite steady in his actions, he probably has his reasons for doing this. He collaborated with Vivian on an advertisement before, perhaps he wanted to defend Vivian?]
[But Hanks is also truly too much of a playboy. His ex-girlfriend is about to get married, and he's only coming to pursue her now. What was he doing before, getting drunk and hitting the headlines every day.]
Domestically, everyone naturally sided with Ling Qianhe. The reason was simple: his past image was too good, too perfect. Everyone felt he was disciplined, diligent, and the type of person who would absolutely not have a scandal.
Even when Ling Qianhe was previously exposed kissing his assistant, at least no one had come out to accuse him.
And that girl was quite good-looking.
It should at most have been a serious relationship.
However, despite Hanks being an international Best Actor, his reputation as a playboy was known globally. Everyone knew Hanks was a first-class international rake.
When Ling Qianhe punched him, people would only applaud.
[Qianhe hit him well, Qianhe hit him wonderfully, hitting him until he cried out!]
Instead, people were a little worried.
[However, won't the other party sue Qianhe? What if Qianhe becomes a notorious artist, what then?]
This was the key concern for everyone!
News was flying everywhere, and tabloids and paparazzi were writing wildly.
Lin Muci and Yang Weiyang were avidly consuming gossip, and they were also educated about Hanks' romantic history, including stories about him kissing Vivian on the Oscars red carpet and then parting ways – the two of them watched with great interest.
Then, another new news alert popped up.
[Explosive: Suspected Overseas and Domestic Dual Best Actors to Join Chinese Female Producer He Yunru's New Film!]
[Ling Qianhe to Collaborate with Hanks on a Project!]
[Lead Actress Role is Still Being Selected.]
[The project is currently still in the casting phase, but it's highly likely to be true.]
These leaks from the agencies were very quick, but after reading the leaked content, everyone felt extremely shocked, even to the point of being dumbfounded.
"Wow!"
"Ling Qianhe and Hanks are going to collaborate on a project?"
"Didn't Ling Qianhe just hit him? Isn't Hanks holding a grudge?"
"Good heavens, I can only marvel at how exciting our entertainment industry is... I wouldn't even dare to dream such an exaggerated dream! If, I mean, if it's true."
"If Ling Qianhe really collaborates with Hanks, I, a faithful believer, am willing to burn incense and eat vegetarian for a month!"
"I'm also willing to exchange thirty jin of my fat for it!"
"Who wouldn't want that? This is a genuine dual Best Actor pairing... With this luxurious configuration, anything they act in will be a hit."
However, this news, precisely because it was so shocking, was met with a mix of belief and disbelief.
The entertainment industry was rife with empty promises.
People were hesitant to believe it.
Could this be true?
Yang Weiyang quickly caught the new gossip in the group chat and commented with great interest.
"Wow! Xiaoci, have you seen the news... Mentor Ling Qianhe is going to collaborate with Hanks! What is this, enemies becoming partners? I really want to see them film together!"
"If it's a production supervised by He Yunru, will she cast a domestic actress? Who among the top five 'Hua Dan' actresses?"
"Ahhh, I'm so excited I could go crazy just thinking about it!"
"Which lucky female star will it be! She's going to soar to success!"
Lin Muci coughed lightly.
She dared not speak.
It seemed...
She was that very female star, soaring to success.
