The Long-awaited Mr Han

Chapter 1645: Threaten

“Your entertainment industry’s too restrictive. You might have a big country with a huge population, but your film industry’s developing really slowly. There’s no future for you here if you stay. It’s true that you’re at the top now, but if you continue staying here, you’ll be a frog in a well.”

Howard said conceitedly, “You’ll never know how big the international stage is if you don’t go and see it. Hollywood’s not just a dream for actors, it’s also where you people who work in related industries yearn to develop your careers in and achieve success.

“Wang Juhuai’s so respected and popular over here—isn’t it because he made a name for himself globally and won the Oscars before?” Howard continued.

Lu Man quirked her brows. Did Howard know the person he was speaking of was now her dad?

Back when the Bourbotte incident happened, Wang Juhuai had yet to return.

Hence, Howard did not know of Wang Juhuai and Lu Man’s relationship, only knowing that the lass called Lu Man was really ignorant and arrogant.

And then, Wang Juhuai went public with his reconcilation with Xia Qingwei, becoming Lu Man’s stepfather.

But the news only circulated within the country.

Wang Juhuai never went back to the US nor accepted any interviews.

Even if the States had any news of him, it wouldn’t be as wide-spread as it was locally.

Howard was still shooting his mouth off. “Staying here will only confine you to a small space and it won’t help you in your career at all. Instead, you’ll become stagnant and even decline. Only Hollywood could offer much more challenges. Our screenwriters are constantly innovating and writing new topics, and you’ll have countless new makeup styles to discover and create.”

Howard gave a haughty laugh. “Frankly, we’re at least 50 years ahead of you guys in terms of innovation, be it for films or dramas!”

Lu Man: “...”

Shi Xiaoya: “...”

Both admitted that the themes for Hollywood’s films and television shows were far more advanced, and they didn’t have stringent criterias like the local industry did, with clearly graded films.

Hence, they naturally had much more freedom in choosing what to film.

But Howard was too belittling with his words.

Howard looked arrogantly at Shi Xiaoya. “So? Do makeup for me and I can introduce you to Hollywood production crews. The company I’m in is planning to shoot a disaster film. I can recommend you, and even if you’re not head of the department, you can learn from the sidelines. It should be extremely educational for you.”

Howard pointed lightly in Lu Man’s direction. “As long as you do makeup for me now, I can recommend you. My makeup artist can handle the rest of her makeup.”

Howard spoke confidently, as if Shi Xiaoya would agree for sure.

“Sorry, I was invited by Lu Man, so I won’t do makeup for anyone else halfway through. Lu Man employed me, so she’s my boss currently.” Shi Xiaoya didn’t stop her movements as she spoke. She couldn’t waste Lu Man’s time just to speak with Howard.

“No matter what industry it is, this is the most basic professionalism,” Shi Xiaoya said coldly.

Howard’s face tightened. Who could have guessed Shi Xiaoya would reject him?

Moreover, he could see very well that Shi Xiaoya was clearly almost done with Lu Man. She could just leave Lu Man alone by now.

“Think carefully. If you miss this chance, you’ll stay in your small circle forever. Even if you wish to expand your career in Hollywood, you won’t have the chance as long as I’m there. You do makeup for me, and I recommend you. Otherwise, don’t even think about going to Hollywood in the future!” Howard threatened lowly.
