Don't call me Master, call me Director

The girl with fierce eyes grabbed Shinji and threw him to the ground.

Second Lord Shen found himself locked by the other party's throat, whether it was physically or psychologically.

"Cloris...Flora..."

Shinji shivered like a mouse caught by a cat and called out the girl's name.

Chapter 33 It was a dark and stormy night......

The movement of Shen Er falling to the ground caused people around to turn their heads and look around, wanting to know what happened.

But after seeing that it was a girl who threw a boy to the ground, these people all turned their heads back.

Seeing that the young girl and the young man are not very old, it is obvious that a relationship dispute has occurred. Such things are too common in "romantic" France, and everyone has long been familiar with it.

Shen Er, who was thrown to the ground, immediately calmed down after the initial panic.

"Yo, Lizzie. I haven't seen you for a few years and you're still so enthusiastic."

"Enthusiasm, you big-headed ghost! You really have a thick skin."

The girl rolled her eyes at Shinji with fiery red eyes.

Although he was very restless in his heart, Second Master Shen still pretended to be calm on the surface, and even showed a charming smile to the girl.

"This is a manifestation of my patience when dealing with beautiful women."

It's a pity that this standard is such that the eight-toothed smile that even politicians are ashamed of cannot impress girls.

"If you don't want to wear false teeth, just give me your exposed teeth."

"Yes, Miss Lissie."

Shinji put away his smile in an instant, then quickly got up from the ground, and while the girl was not paying attention, he wiped the necks of Weber and Kariya who had been snickering.

"Slick, not serious."

The girl glared at Shen Er fiercely, and then said: "Matou Shen Er, you are good enough, and you can keep avoiding me."

"No, I have always respected Miss Cloris."

Shen Er deliberately bit the word "respect" very hard, obviously implying something.

"Of course, I have always loved you, Shen Er, who made us two family friends."

Noticing that Shinji didn't continue to call herself by her nickname, the girl raised her eyebrows.Although she was a little annoyed at the other party's completely business-like attitude, she had to change her previous tone and replaced it with the social rhetoric of the younger generations of the big family.

This silver-haired, red-eyed girl who is slightly older than Shinji is Cloris Flora, the heir of the Flora family, a North American magician family.

Although the young lady's level of magic can only be said to be average, she has a very good mind. She obtained a double degree in management and finance at a young age, and started to manage the family business.

"So, are you the publisher representative of Times Group this time?" Shen Er asked, rubbing his neck.

"Looks like someone doesn't know that I'm taking over the publishing department~ How heartless."

Cloris rolled her eyes again: "Someone came to Europe across the Atlantic Ocean, but a certain person doesn't even know who the person in charge of his partner is."

"I didn't... Wait, don't say it as if you have decided that the publisher is your Times Group!"

In response, Shinji loudly refuted Cloris's remarks, and then turned his head to look at Weber who was standing beside him eating melons.

Weber said with a little satisfaction: "So far, the Times Group represented by Cloris is the most sincere of all the publishers that have been negotiated in the early stage."

After finishing speaking, Weber leaned closer to Shen Er's ear and added something in a low voice.

"The girl came to cooperate with us sincerely, Shen Er, you should follow."

Shen Er had black lines on his face, and he whispered hatefully: "Do you know what happened between me and her?"

"do not know."

"I don't know you talk too much!"

Shinji stepped on Weber's black leather shoes.

Then, Shen Erye ignored Webb, who was clutching his feet, and turned to Cloris again, and said with a smile: "Time Group is very grateful for my movie, but my family's FSN level is PG-13, which is too different from your style with HBO TV station." Are you older?"

HBO is the largest paid movie station in North America, and its TV series and programs are famous all over the world for their large scale.

How big is the scale?

As long as you know that the producer of "A Song of Ice and Fire", which will become popular all over the world in the future, is HBO, you can get a general idea.

"HBO is not the only TV station owned by Time Group, and TBS TV station is for all ages. Besides, TV stations and movies are completely two distribution channels, right?"

Cloris rolled her eyes at Shinji again.

Normally women would definitely look ugly if they did this consecutively, but Cloris made her even more beautiful.

Because Cloris is really beautiful, even by the strictest standards, she is also an exquisite beauty.

A head of silver hair hangs down softly, and the exquisite facial features are pleasing to the eye.

Not only that, but she also has a very high taste in clothing. She is wearing a short-sleeved black dress with silver trim, showing cute little shoulders and delicate collarbone, which makes people feel simple and elegant at the same time. Welcome Missy.

Unfortunately, this beautiful woman's name is Cloris Flora, the woman that Shinji fears the most and is the one he is least willing to contact.

Therefore, Shinji didn't seem to see the beauty of Cloris, but continued to express resistance.

"Time Group's main media business is not movies, right? I would like to find a partner with a huge movie distribution channel, such as a mouse with big ears whose name cannot be mentioned."

The corners of Cloris' lips curled up at these words, and she said mockingly: "Since you don't have such an idea, Shinji, why did you tell your Japanese partner that the European and American publishers are our Times Group?"

"Second uncle—!"

Shinji shot a glance at Kariya who was whistling towards the ceiling.

"It was you who put me in touch with the Flora family, boy."

Although Kariya did not speak directly, his eyes clearly expressed this meaning.

But Second Lord Shen is Second Lord Shen after all, and his face that can't even be blasted by a mortar is not blown out.

"Did the second uncle say that?" Shen Er exclaimed in a low voice, then frowned and guessed, "It should be that the second uncle is eager to ask the distributor to say that on purpose to promote my movie. I personally I don’t think it’s necessary.”

"Oh, yes!"

Cloris clenched her teeth, and her tone unconsciously became heavier.

"Well, Time Group is definitely on my radar. But I'd rather have the best treatment for my film."

The guilty Shen Er smacked his lips, and replied seriously.

"Forget it, anyway, I participated in this Cannes Film Festival to help the group find suitable films for distribution, and I don't have to decide on yours." Cloris replied with raised eyebrows.

"Well, Xingyue Films welcomes all distributors based on the principle of fairness and justice." Shen Er said in a business-like tone.

"If other distribution companies are not interested, you can take the initiative to come to Times Group. Personally, I see Shen Er's ability very much."

After finishing speaking, one of Cloris's hands sneaked around from behind, and twisted hard on Shen Er's back before he could speak.

"hiss......"

Second Lord Shen immediately opened his eyes wide, gasped, stared at the silver-haired beauty but was speechless.

"See you later at the film festival."

Cloris smiled complacently, and slowly left under Shen Er's angry eyes.

"Pfft...Shinji...haha...I didn't expect there to be a girl in this world who can cure you...haha... "

After Cloris left, Kariya couldn't hold back anymore, and laughed out loud while clutching his stomach.

"Second Uncle! Go to hell with me!"

Angrily, Shen Er kicked over.

◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆

The relationship between Shinji and Cloris Flora is a bit complicated, and the two met three years ago.

Back then, in order to understand the development of the North American film industry and learn about film production, Shinji lived in the Flora family as an international student through the relationship between the Matou family and the Flora family.

At that time, Cloris was already 20 years old, and she was the jewel in the palm of Flora's family, and a much sought after beauty.

Living under the same roof, and both of them have signs of developing in the entertainment industry, Shinji and Cloris often communicate with each other.

Cloris is not interested in making movies, but she is interested in Shinji's ideas on media development and recognizes the boy's talent.

As a result, after coming and going, the two chatted and became very good friends.

However, Shinji didn't have any idea about Cloris. The Flora family, like the Tohsaka family, was too close to the Matou family. The only way to get married was to get married.

At that time, Shen Er, who already had the potential of a playboy, would not have given up the entire forest for a single tree.

Originally, according to the development of this script, the next generation of the Matou family and the Flora family will form a deep friendship with their elders, and it will become a good story in the magic world.

Unfortunately, life will always give you an accident in an unexpected place.

On a dark and windy night, a day of murder and arson... Bah, on the day of Cloris's 21st birthday, in order to celebrate that she finally reached the age of drinking, this woman rebelled for the first time and drank a bottle liquor.

But how good can a girl who is not talented and has never drank alcohol drink well?

It's just that what Shen Er never expected was that Cloris can't hold alcohol, and the wine quality is not very good.

Cloris didn't cry and fuss like others, but kept pouring wine for Shen Er.

Although Shen Er was not of legal drinking age in Japan or the United States at that time, as a time traveler, Shen Er didn't take it too seriously, he just thought it was blowing bottles with his brothers.

But after Cloris's drunkenness entered the second stage, Second Lord Shen felt something was wrong.Because the red-faced Cloris directly hugged his body and kept kissing him.

Shen Er originally planned to resist, but he overestimated the drinking capacity of his body after time travel, so the so-called resistance was more like obedience in Cloris' eyes.

So, Cloris simply "handled" Shinji.

This drove Shen Er crazy. He never thought that he would be hit by a girl who was on base one day, and this girl was not within his attack range.

Although Second Lord Shen was very comfortable during the whole process, being comfortable for a while does not mean being comfortable for a lifetime!

Cloris sees it quite openly. Although the drunken incident is an exception, she has a good impression of Shen Er and doesn't mind going further with him.

So Cloris hinted something to Shinji overtly and secretly, expressing her thoughts.

The other party's actions frightened Shen Er.

Not to mention that Shen Er has no intention of getting married at all, and the strong personalities of Cloris and Tohsaka Rin do not match Shen Er's ideal wife.

Most importantly, Shen Er, who has ambitions in the entertainment industry, does not want to get too close to the Times Group.

There is no problem with the cooperation between friends and businessmen, but once Shen Er marries the princess of the Flora family, it is hard to say whether he will expand the territory for himself or for the Times Group.

Shen Er, who was afraid of being forced to marry, simply chose to end his study in the United States a year early, and ran back to the clock tower to find a partner.

Since then, Shinji has always adopted the method of less contact and less communication with the Flora family and Cloris, but he did not expect that the two of them would meet again in Cannes.

Chapter 34 Who is a serious person walking the red carpet?

When I got off the plane, I met Cloris, which was really a bad start for Shen Erye.

But Shen Er did not continue to focus on the rich woman, but on the film festival.

In order to ensure that his work would not be delayed, Shen Er deliberately chose to arrive in France a few days earlier.

At this time, there is still some time before the opening of the movie, so Shen Er's first impression of Cannes is that it is a beautiful and quiet seaside tourist town.

It's a pity that Shen Erye didn't have the opportunity to go to the beach and strike up a conversation with the girl. After only one day of jet lag, he and Weber went through the final formalities of participating in the FSN exhibition.

Then Erye Shen saw what a mature large-scale commercial film festival is.

During the period of going through the formalities, Shen Er only did three things: pay, pay, and still pay.

Anyway, after running around the film festival venue for a day, Shen Er's biggest feeling is not the artistic atmosphere of the Cannes Film Festival, but Hong Guoguo's monetary benefits.

It is no wonder that some people in the circle have always said that money is the most basic stepping stone to touch the art of film.

It costs a lot of money to apply for exhibitors’ certificates, to produce film promotional materials, and to produce cinema halls, which almost catch up with FSN’s first week’s publicity expenses in Japan.

Whether it was entrusting a designated partner of the film festival to make movie posters, or renting a screening room in a movie theater, Shen Er's fees were much higher than normal, giving him the illusion that he had bought water at tourist attractions in his previous life.

Even for the cheapest certificate fee, both Shen and Shen have to pay 1200 euros for each one.

And because Shen Er is unknown in the international film market, the certificates he has obtained are still the lowest-level ones. You have to queue up to watch movies, and you can only stand at the end of the press conference.

If you are a big shot in the circle, you will get a more advanced certificate. Not only can you skip the queue to watch movies, but you can even get various other benefits.
