Chapter 642: Chapter 640: Bringing the Treasure [2nd Update]

That afternoon, Lu Xiaobu and his entourage arrived at the Pinlan Award ceremony.

Oh right, he specially brought a treasure with him!

Guess what it is?!

Pinlan Award.

This place was already filled with people from various big drama crews, with directors, actors, and young fresh meat!

Of course, bodyguards, agents, makeup artists, assistants, and so on were even more numerous to a frightening degree!

Various kinds of jealousy and sarcastic comments were endless here!

No help for it, do you still remember the dispute over who should go first in the Golden Fire Award underground parking lot between those two pieces of young fresh meat?

Same old tricks, just a different soup!

Anyway, I just can’t stand being ranked second to anyone!

The wars between the stars were relatively subtle, after all, their every word and action were being watched by the journalists.

However, the disputes among the others were outright and blatant.

"Isn’t this Director Wu? I heard you shot another crappy film recently?"

"Psh! Look who’s talking, have you seen the crap you made? Trying to fool idiots!"

"Can you control it? We make way more than you!"

"Damn money-grubbers!"

"Say that again! How dare you say that with your face? Look at the crap you made, other than the name being about nostalgia, the rest is all about hanging a sheep’s head but selling dog meat! And it’s all sour dog meat at that!"

"Hello! Yes, you are a bit stronger than me, not only the name draws on nostalgia, but the content is all hooked up too! But can you explain to me, what is a full green-screen movie supposed to mean? Treating the audience like they’re blind?!"

"..."

The arguing got fiercer and fiercer!

Not just these two, but other people were also non-stop bickering!

Of course, if reporters pointed their cameras at them, they would immediately put on a show of comradery as if they were the best of friends!

They’ve really mastered the art of face-changing!

"Squeak!"

The sound of brakes came.

A luxurious motorcade stopped at the entrance.

As the people from the cars got out, those present no longer cared to argue and looked at the newcomers with incredibly flattering gazes!

Because these people were none other than the two dozen bigwigs who had always been against Lu Xiaobu!

They thought it over and decided to come see for themselves!

They just couldn’t rest easy!

They felt that if they were present, Lu Xiaobu wouldn’t dare to do any wrongdoing!

The actors and directors all greeted them.

"President Chang! President Ma! President Wang..."

Their tone was extremely respectful; they couldn’t help it, these were the wealthy people they depended on for their livelihood!

These bigwigs also nodded in turn, acknowledging the greetings!

For a while, the scene was incredibly harmonious, no longer showing the previous tension!

Inside, the bigwigs were quite pleased with themselves.

Such things had happened many times before, but they never felt anything special about it.

But now it was different.

They had just gotten on bad terms with Lu Xiaobu, so seeing their influence in the film industry still so strong, they all felt a weird sense of satisfaction.

However.

At that moment!

"Squeak!"

A camper van stopped at the entrance.

Under everyone’s gaze, Lu Xiaobu stepped out of the car and stretched.

Instantly, everyone felt as if a wind had picked up from the ground!

It was not a cold wind, nor a chilly breeze, but a tornado!

A reckless tornado, destroying everything in its path.

Therefore, everyone shrank their necks and pretended not to see, bowing their heads.

No one dared to provoke Lu Xiaobu!

Suddenly, the entire venue fell into a deathly silence.

The previous flattery towards the bigwigs completely disappeared, and some people even desperately moved back to hide.

Yep, Han Meng was one of them!

His legs had gone weak!

He was frantically cursing in his heart—damn it, wasn’t it agreed that Lu Xiaobu wouldn’t come? How come he’s here again?!

Even now, he would occasionally wake up from a nightmare, startled by the memory of that scene at the Golden Fire Award ceremony!

And this time, he couldn’t even avoid it!

Here was another award ceremony where he bumped into Lu Xiaobu again!

How could he not be scared?

"President Lu, how impressive you are!"

Ma Jinze, who was currently suing Lu Xiaobu, was undoubtedly the one who hated Lu Xiaobu the most.

Thus, he couldn’t help but mock Lu Xiaobu with sarcasm.

In his heart, he had thought that as long as he took a stand, the people around him would surely support him.

Even if the actors and directors were afraid, these big shots by his side wouldn’t be cowards!

But the result!

Silence!

Not a single person spoke up, not even a cough!

Who’s the fool here? Who would bother to go head-to-head with Lu Xiaobu?

Lu Xiaobu was used to acting like a scoundrel. He would dare to slap you right here, would you dare to confront him on the street?

So, Ma Jinze suddenly found himself in an awkward position!

Damn it, just a bunch of cowards, not a single one supporting him!

"Who are you? Get lost! Good dogs don’t block the way!"

Lu Xiaobu snickered, took a step forward, and stood right in front of Ma Jinze.

"You!"

Ma Jinze’s face veins bulged with anger, and his whole body trembled with rage!

Lu Xiaobu was despicable!

Not only did he insult him, but what was this now, forcing him to make way?

Right here?

To make way for Lu Xiaobu in front of all these people?!

What about his pride?!

No, he couldn’t possibly give way today, he couldn’t just lose to Lu Xiaobu without a fight!

And then!

Lu Xiaobu reached behind him, and Zhang Meng took out a bag from the car.

Zhang Meng quickly assembled what was inside.

And then.

A sharp Green Dragon Crescent Blade was handed to Lu Xiaobu.

Lu Xiaobu took the Crescent Blade and heavily struck it against the ground!

"Whoosh!"

Ma Jinze, who had been ready for a confrontation, suddenly stepped aside at lightning speed!

Motherfucker!

Confront with what?

When Lu Xiaobu had that weapon, at most you’d get beaten up!

Who would’ve known Lu Xiaobu was actually carrying a weapon, and it was the glaring Green Dragon Crescent Blade!

Confront? Let whoever loves to confront go do it!

Who could withstand a slash from this blade?!

Don’t ask if Lu Xiaobu dares or not, that question has been discussed countless times!

Seeing Ma Jinze’s action, people nearby couldn’t help but curl their lips—chickened out, huh! What were you pretending to be earlier?!

Lu Xiaobu tilted his head and glanced at Ma Jinze with a trace of disdain in his eyes.

This kind of person is worthy to be his opponent?

Look at Lin Feng, then look at you, the gap is too big!

If it were Lin Feng, he would dare to fight him head-on!

And so, Lu Xiaobu just carried the Green Dragon Crescent Blade and walked inside.

Everyone around retreated even further.

Ma Jinze gritted his teeth as he watched Lu Xiaobu leave—damn it, acting all high and mighty for just a while! Once the award is announced, your website is done for, then we’ll have all the time in the world to settle this!

What he didn’t know was that the officials from the Golden Fire Award had also witnessed this scene, and they let out a sigh of relief!

Thank goodness, thank goodness, they made the right decision!

Otherwise, they might have been the ones getting chopped!
