Chapter 1484 Universal Studios

At the manager's command, the security guards immediately rushed over.

In fact, without them having to lift a finger, Yang Zixiong and the other guy were too embarrassed to stay there, so they turned and ran out of the restaurant.

As he walked, he left a trail of wet footprints, while Yang Lili still hadn't stopped, with a continuous gurgling sound coming from behind her.

Seeing the two of them in such a pathetic state, Shang Tiantian couldn't help but laugh, "Is this what they call 'pissing and shitting yourself' in legends?"

Ye Bufan nodded with a smile, "Exactly, it fits the situation perfectly."

Then, a few people followed the manager upstairs to Private Room No. 1. As they walked, Helena asked, "Is their current state related to you? How did you do it?"

"Just a small trick of Chinese medicine," Ye Bufan looked at her playfully, "How about it, do you want to try it too?"

"No, I don't want to, that would be too embarrassing."

Helena shook her head repeatedly. She was the dignified Great Red-Robed Priestess; if she ended up pissing and shitting herself, she really wouldn't be able to live with herself.

Everyone arrived in the private room. The manager didn't even need them to ask; good wine and dishes were already being served. The finest steak, red wine aged for decades—everything was brought up in one go.

Everyone enjoyed the dinner thoroughly. When Shang Tiantian was about to pay the bill, the manager repeatedly waved his hand, "This meal is on the house. You are all distinguished guests of the Fulin Family. How dare I charge you?"

"This…"

Shang Tiantian looked at Ye Bufan, feeling a bit awkward.

"Since that's the case, then so be it."

Ye Bufan didn't stand on ceremony. If he insisted on paying, the Fulin Family probably wouldn't be able to sleep at night.

He waved his hand directly and led everyone out of the restaurant.

When they returned to the hotel, the hotel manager had already added two more rooms for them, and everything was perfectly arranged.

Ye Bufan sighed and re-allocated everyone's rooms, but he could still only sleep on the sofa in the same room as Helena and the others.

The next day, as soon as everyone had finished breakfast, James and his son delivered the prepared materials.

Ye Bufan took them and looked them over, finding that the father and son had done an excellent job. Each celebrity had a detailed file, including photos, basic information like height and weight, and also what they were good at and what kind of roles they were suitable for.

"Mr. Ye, are you satisfied?"

James stood by, trembling with fear, afraid of displeasing him.

"Not bad. Go back for now. I'll call you if anything comes up."

"Okay, Mr. Ye, no matter what it is, just give us a call, and our DuPont family will definitely go all out."

After saying that, he took Kukoc and left the hotel.

Ye Bufan handed the materials to Lu Banxia and Shang Tiantian, "You two take a look and choose who is suitable."

Both of them were very smart and capable, and they quickly reviewed all the celebrity profiles carefully and categorized them.

After some screening, they finally focused on a Hollywood male star named Marcus.

This person was a Chinese Kung Fu-type actor, with a rather tough and fierce style, and he wasn't just for show; he truly had some real Chinese Kung Fu, earning him the title of "Hollywood Chinese Kung Fu King."

Ye Bufan was not unfamiliar with him, having watched some of his films a few times before.

"Ye Dage, I think this person is very suitable. We mainly want to penetrate the M Country market, so we must first choose influential people, and Marcus is definitely a top-tier king-level actor in Hollywood, with great influence, completely meeting our conditions.

Furthermore, what we are promoting this time is Chinese medicine. The main reason is that people in M Country don't have much understanding of Chinese medicine; what they know most about is Chinese Kung Fu.

From this point of view, choosing a Chinese Kung Fu superstar as an endorser is much better than those actors who focus on romance."

Lu Banxia explained her reasons for choosing him, then looked at Ye Bufan, waiting for him to make the final decision.

"Okay," Ye Bufan said, "We'll consider him as our preliminary target. We'll discuss the specific situation after we see him."

Then he called James again to confirm that Marcus was filming in Hollywood's film and television city. Everyone then rushed over together, wanting to see for themselves what kind of person this Chinese Kung Fu superstar was.

The DuPont family originally wanted to send someone to personally escort him there, but Ye Bufan refused. He was just going to choose an endorser, there was no need to make such a big fuss.

Hollywood's Universal Studios is located in the northwest suburbs of Angel City, stretching as far as the eye can see, and its area is by no means inferior to China's Hengdian World Studios.

The most attractive part here is that you can observe the filmmaking process and revisit classic movie clips.

The studio consists of three parts: the Studio Tour, the Upper Lot, and the Lower Lot.

Ye Bufan and his group walked along, watching several film crews shooting, sightseeing as they went, which kept them from getting bored.

Soon, they followed the location provided by James

(End of this chapter, please turn the page)

and arrived at a set in the Upper Lot, which was where Marcus's film crew was located.

However, when they arrived, they were slightly surprised. Other areas were bustling with activity, but here it was very quiet.

Although the staff was complete and all sorts of equipment seemed ready, no filming was taking place.

He scanned the entire area with his Divine Sense and confirmed that Marcus was not there. It seemed he hadn't arrived yet.

On a bench in the nearby resting area sat more than a dozen people, two of whom had East Asian features: one was tall and thin, looking about 40 years old.

The other was not tall but very sturdy, appearing to be about 30 years old. Both were currently conversing in Chinese.

Meeting Chinese people here made Ye Bufan feel especially warm, so he walked over and said in Chinese, "Two elder brothers, do you work here?"

The two of them seemed very enthusiastic to hear someone greet them in their native language.

The little guy said, "Oh, little brother, are you also from China?"

"Yes, I'm Ye Bufan, from Jiangnan Province, China."

"Jiangnan Province, huh? We're both from Jiangbei. This is my cousin, Wang Aimin, and I'm Wang Aiguo. We're fellow countrymen here!" the little guy greeted warmly, "Little brother, let's sit down and chat."

Ye Bufan told Lu Banxia and the others to rest on a nearby bench while he chatted with the Wang brothers.

"Two elder brothers, what do you do here? Are you actors here?"

Wang Aiguo said, "I'm just an extra. I practiced some basic Chinese Kung Fu since I was little, and I just take on some action roles here casually.

My cousin, on the other hand, understands photography and works as a cameraman here. I came here because of him."

Ye Bufan asked, "Since you're an extra, why don't you do it in China?"

"I don't like leaving my family either, but I have no choice. I have two kids at home who are in school and need money, and I don't have any other skills.

It still pays more here than in China. Being an extra in China only earns one or two hundred yuan a day, while here you can earn about one hundred usd a day."

Wang Aiguo laughed, "The difference is quite big. After a few more years, once I've earned enough money for my kids to get married, I'll go back."

Wang Aimin asked, "Little Brother Ye, what are you doing here? Are you traveling?"

"Just looking around, and also looking for someone," Ye Bufan asked, "Is Marcus filming here? Why haven't I seen him?"
