“You are my one and only student, it is your right to do that. You are always welcome…” Jones laughed. “Emma, you are my student, don’t disappoint me.”
“I won’t,” Emma nodded.
“I have faith in you…”
That night, Emma and Jones chatted for a long time, almost like they were father and daughter. Jones also gave Emma a lot advice.
“Before we say goodbye, I’ll give you a gift. I hope you like it.”
These were the last words that Jones said before he returned to his home. Emma didn’t know what Jones was referring to until a variety of American film companies began to contact her a few days later. That’s when she realized that Jones had recommended her to a lot of big names in the industry.
To keep hold of Jones’ student, the biggest film agency in the US offered Emma some very attractive conditions.
But, Emma rejected their offer because she knew where her real stage belonged…
Besides, she knew she didn’t truly qualify to work with them, they simply approached her out of respect for her teacher.
…
“Isn’t it time you consider returning?” Eric asked as he strolled hand-in-hand down the street with Emma. “You need to eventually return to where you came from.”
Emma smiled and shook her head, “I’m in no rush. We will continue to refine our skills here in the US, until I’m satisfied with ‘The Ant Queen’s’ post production. I promised that I’d return home with a completed film, but it’s only half done.”
“Fine then, Director Miller. After all, you’re quite the topic of discussion amongst the directors here in the US…”
“Are you t**sing me?” Emma asked as she leaned into Eric’s embrace.
“I am praising you!” Eric laughed. “Let’s go, Yan Er should be waking up soon…”
“Oh, that’s right, how’s our sons doing?”
“What do you think? Zixi is fine, but Zichen…”
Emma understood without Eric having to explain in detail.
“Didn’t you say you were going to do a test on Zichen?” Emma asked. “If this kid turns out to be a genius, then we’ve made a huge benefit!”
It wasn’t unreasonable for a pair of smart parents to give birth to a genius.
But, apart from being smart, Roberts Zichen was a little weird…
“After you return to New York, we’ll take him for some tests together.”
“OK,” Emma nodded. Apart from matters related to the entertainment industry, the three kids were currently the center of the couple’s world.
However, the fact that their daughter was becoming more and more adorable, tormented Eric. As a man, he was famous for being ruthless and tough, yet, whenever he looked at his daughter, he would have the urge to get close to her.
It seemed, he was going to spoil this child like crazy.
…
Emma continued to stay in the US, while S.A.J. made sound progress. They received more activities and each one was more fulfilling than the one before it.
However, Lisa was in no rush to get the group onto multiple stages because she cared more about quality than quantity; exposure had to be just right.
Plus, she had learned from Emma to not follow convention. After all, didn’t the audience enjoy things that were different?
At that moment, while Lisa was focused on securing some high exposure appearances, Han Xiuche was monitoring her every move. However, he was much too patient, he even helped Lisa by helping her strategize. This made Lin Qian and Royeenghong slowly let down their guard. If there was actually something wrong with this guy, would he have endured for so many months without making a move?
But, Han Xiuche was just extra cautious. In fact, in the past few months, he had actually met with Ma Weiwei on various occasions.
Ever since the incident with her audition, Ma Weiwei reflected on her experience and quietly practiced her acting away from the public eye.
Although, with her current fame, it wasn’t necessary for her to have acting skills, she still felt she should plan for the future after remembering the humiliation she suffered from the Americans. Acting was something that one needed to have, if even just a little.
The two were colluding together and Han Xiuche made sure that Ma Weiwei knew about Lisa’s every move.
When she heard about Lisa’s efforts at training S.A.J., Ma Weiwei couldn’t help but sigh, “If I had been signed with Superstar Media from the start rather than taken to get plastic surgery, my life would not be so painful…I would not be constantly compared to Emma and my life would not revolve around her.”
“Sometimes, I feel quite envious of the new group that Lisa’s training.”
“Unfortunately for you, you will always be opposing Emma,” Han Xiuche highlighted. “Emma is just hiding in the US at the moment, unwilling to make an appearance.”
“Find a chance to make a move. I can’t wait any longer,” Ma Weiwei said to Han Xiuche, “I don’t want to be her shadow anymore.”
“You just sit back and wait for a good show.”
Ma Weiwei was extremely curious about Han Xiuche’s methods.
After all, Lisa wasn’t easy to deal with. How was he going to take Superstar Media from her?
“In that case, I’ll be waiting!”
Han Xiuche watched as Ma Weiwei left and leaned back in a relaxed manner.
The only reason why he was so confident was because he had the four newcomers within his grasp. To be exact, even these newcomers were unaware that he had evidence of them sniffing cocaine. He had already discovered it during their university days and specifically introduced them to Lisa because he knew that her efforts would go to waste as soon as their secret was exposed. Worst of all, Superstar Media would also be implicated.
This was Han Xiuche’s plan.
It seemed, the four newcomers had realized that following Lisa was an easy path to take, so they tried quitting their drug addiction. But, unfortunately, there were some things that one couldn’t turn back from.
And the only reason why Lisa hadn’t discovered anything was because they covered for each other. After all, they had experience at keeping this secret from their student days.
Soon, S.A.J. were to partake in a big reality TV show overseas, where they’d get the chance to relax a little…
However, a good show was about to start!
…
Meanwhile, Emma was in the US with her post production team, slowly refining their skills and placing 100% of their focus on ‘The Ant Queen’. Although their special effects still couldn’t compare to the Americans, Emma was already very satisfied.
Recognizing the limits of their current capabilities was also an important part of growing up.
“Miss Miller, according to the newest adjustments that we made, our production time can be split in half,” the post production manager said.
“Don’t lose focus. Don’t become sloppy because you want to save time.”
“Don’t worry, I personally watched Director Qiao Sen draw out his plans, so I’m also hoping to produce high quality results. You need to have faith that we learned a lot from the Americans during this time.”
Emma was aware that the manager’s wife was about to give birth.
As a mother of three, Emma understood the helplessness of not having one’s husband by their side during Labor, so she smiled and nodded at the manager, “If you are confident enough, let’s move the team back to New York. I’m beginning to feel a little homesick as well.”
“OK, Miss Miller.”
Originally, they predicted things to take another 6 months to complete, but now, it didn’t seem necessary.
That night, Emma gave Lisa a phone call to tell her the good news, “I will be returning to New York soon. Do you want to come pick me up?”
“I’m a very busy woman these days!” Lisa joked.
“I heard you’ve been doing really well with your new group,” Emma chuckled. “Fine then, since you are so busy, I guess I’ll have to come look for you instead…”
“You must be joking. How could I let the student of a big sci-fi master personally come look for me? When are you flying back?”
“I’ll let you know as soon as I book my tickets.”
