It hadn't been a long time since he last came to Luoyang City. This bustling city hadn't changed at all because of his visit. The only difference was that there were no longer posters with his handsome face hanging on the streets and alleys. Instead, there were posters of other people, such as Gillette's Razor, or someone's new movie or play.
What Chen Guang had done in the past had indeed turned the bustling Luoyang City upside down for a period of time, but time and the city had worked together to erase the deepest traces.
The only thing that reminded Chen Guang of the time when he came to Luoyang City with "Women" was probably the poster of Elma Watson.
After acting in "Romeo and Juliet" with Chen Guang, little Watson's acting skills seemed to have improved out of thin air. She was now more and more famous in the European and American drama industry. From a rising star in a small circle, she had now become the face of a drama.
She deserved it.
Chen Guang was never stingy with his generosity. He was also willing to let those who were willing to help him benefit from it, whether it was intentional or not.
Unfortunately, he did not have much time now. Otherwise, Chen Guang would have liked to see Elma Watson's performance. But he decided not to do so now.
Chen Guang, who had disguised himself as a middle-aged man, did not have to worry about being recognized at all. However, he still habitually guarded against the surveillance cameras on the street.
No one would believe it, but there were fewer surveillance cameras on the streets of Luoyang City than in Wujing City. It was quite easy for Chen Guang to avoid them. No wonder the crime rate in America was so high.
But it was not as if Chen Guang had never encountered something that troubled him. In order to avoid the surveillance cameras, he accidentally walked into an alley.
He had only taken a few steps when a few very strong black men jumped out from a small door next to the alley.
"Hey, old Asian man, leave your phone and wallet behind and get lost. This is not a place you should be."
The black man standing at the front was shaking a long dagger in his hand. His waist was bulging, and he was probably carrying other things with him.
Bang!
Clang!
Dong! Dong!
Ten seconds later, Chen Guang clapped his hands and left, leaving a few of his buddies moaning on the ground.
The dagger was broken into three pieces, and the guns they had hidden at their waists were scattered everywhere. Chen Guang whistled and cursed in his heart. Was it because his disguise was too simple and honest? What era was it? How could he still be robbed?
Someone actually dares to rob me?
Do you really know how to write the word 'death'?
Well, they can't write Chinese.
Originally, he thought that the Schultz family would be heavily guarded at this time, but after arriving here, he found that was not the case. The huge gate of the manor was filled with cars and people, and the atmosphere was even a little festive.
Chen Guang didn't approach him rashly. Instead, he found a cafe nearby, ordered a latte, and sat down. He then asked the waiter to bring him a copy of Hitchcock's Suspense Stories and pretended to read it.
No one noticed that most of Chen Guang's attention was on the people going in and out of the Schultz family's manor.
He saw several Asian faces. These people looked quite wretched. They bowed their heads when they walked, as if everyone was their boss.
Needless to say, they were people from the Sansheng Group.
In addition, some people who looked like doctors came out from time to time. They should be the psychiatrists hired by the Schultz family to treat the young Schultz.
Chen Guang couldn't help but snicker. Are you kidding me? You're going to cure the guy that I made crazy?
Then I, Chen Guang, should go home and plant sweet potatoes.
After sitting for an hour or so, he got up and left. This was the last time he confirmed his guess.
There was no need to hesitate anymore. The Schultz family was indeed involved in this matter. Old Schultz had come out for a short time to see off a well-known brain doctor in the United States.
When the doctor left, he was frowning. Obviously, he couldn't do anything about Schultz's condition.
Old Schultz didn't get the result he wanted, and he looked gloomy. However, after his secretary came over and said something, Old Schultz smiled as he walked back, as if he had heard something good.
Five minutes later, Chen Guang received an internal notification from Lu Xiaoliang. Lu Xiaoliang had just called to report that America's cinemas had gone crazy and requested for Woman to be removed.
Although Women had passed its peak, the drop in the box office was still within a controllable range. The daily box office was still more than five million, and the drop was getting slower.
Many performing arts students and people who were interested in the art of film became the main consumers. They watched the movie 10 times or even 20 times.
Because of this, it was understandable that the screening rate was lowered. However, Women could challenge the record of the longest screening period in North America, which was three months.
This was a historical record for Chinese films. More importantly, the longer the movie stayed in the cinema chain, the more money they could make.
Chen Guang didn't reply to the message, but it didn't take long for the inside information to be updated again. It was confirmed that the Schultz family had taken the initiative to contact several companies that controlled the largest cinema chains in North America, hoping that they would stop showing Women.
In fact, for these cinema chains, it didn't make any difference whether they stopped showing the movie or not. Now that Women had passed its peak, it didn't matter who the movie was.
If nothing had happened to Chen Guang, these cinema chains might not have been willing to offend him. However, the fact that he was beheaded had almost become an open secret.
Since he was already dead, they didn't need to care about his feelings.
Chen Guang didn't need to ask anyone else. Combining the two things, he guessed that was what Old Schultz's secretary had just told him.
He couldn't help but sneer. Did they really think that I was dead?
The terrible thing wasn't over yet. After Chen Guang returned to the hotel and had dinner, Zhuo Jingsi, who was in Prince, called him.
She said that things had changed again.
Although her personal safety wasn't a problem under Aunty Mei's protection, Prince's Laboratory was obviously disloyal.
Many new faces appeared outside the laboratory. Not only that, but Prince's Laboratory also changed their previous happy cooperation and began to spy on Zhuo Jingsi's experimental process more wildly and arrogantly.
If she hadn't asked people to keep an eye on the laboratory 24 hours a day, Prince would have quietly sneaked in to steal the samples.
In the face of a hundred-billion-dollar market, there was no real morality in this world.
In the past, due to Chen Guang's identity and influence, he was extremely powerful both in and outside of Huaxia. Whether it was Prince's Laboratory, the major photocatalyst partners, or the cinema chains, they all followed the rules.
But now that something had happened to Chen Guang, many of the tricks hidden in the dark had been revealed.
Chen Guang felt that it was very likely that Prince's Laboratory wasn't just eyeing the samples. In other people's hearts, Teacher Zhuo was the one who had the five god-level formulas. Not only that, but she also had knowledge that surpassed the times.
Therefore, Prince's real goal should be to keep Teacher Zhuo and put her under house arrest.
Behind this matter wasn't just this well-known laboratory. It was impossible to say that without the tacit consent of the people in power in America.
Standing in front of the window and watching the slowly setting sun outside, Chen Guang sighed. You guys forced me to do this.
Human nature is really terrible.
