《Hollywood King》Chapter 57.

After watching the entire trial from the screen, he felt as if what he did was an utter waste. In reality, he sent an innocent man to jail for no reason. The revenge he wanted to get wasn’t possible by accusing him of false things.
“That was a total failure!” The assistant said and looked at William.
“Whose plan was it?! Was it mine? Huh? I should have known what the heck you are capable of! Now I’m sure Zero Mediaworks are going to fire me in no time! God! Look what I have done! You are fired, man! Get out!” William said while sitting on his chair with anger boiling inside him. He was feeling ashamed of himself from the depth of his soul.
It was not because he hadn't done such things before or he was feeling truly bad about the situation, he was ashamed because of how he talked about Ian to the media and now Ian successfully overcame it. William was an egoistic director, yet to make it worse, his job was at stake now.

“We did it, Ian! Now there will be no barrier for you and the success you aim for,” Mason said while hugging Ian. It was the first hug they shared and Ian somehow felt it was warm. Like a fatherly hug.
“Yeah, thank you, uncle,” Ian said and smiled.
“Let’s see what people say,” Mason said and took the laptop to visit various sites and social media to see the reaction of people.
The whole trial and the entire story are now trending almost everywhere. Almost every trend that was ongoing was positive about Ian. It was a huge challenge for his reputation in a way and Ian successfully surpassed it.
@SilverGriff
The trial was like a useless day just to prove the innocence of Ian. We should have known better before making Ian stand on the court. As the public we would always support our director, Ian Renner because this must be the third time he proved how much of a good soul he is. (The first two times being when he created total blockbusters) He is more famous now compared to any actor/actress in the industry! We wish you luck always and forever, Ian! #TIan.
#TIan got popular in Nwitter which was a massive social media platform where people shared trends and talked about the latest news. Nwitter was known for the tagline of “Break the latest news and entertainment in any politics” which also explains a lot why the hashtag was trending around in there.

People also appreciated Ian due to how the word of his new movie got out at the time. #TIan was a short form for Team Ian. People stood up for him, even if its with their socials.
@April_04
The newest hint of Ian’s plans is said to be about a movie based on Racism. Ian Renner, a person who creates marvelous ideas, is now going to create a movie due to a huge scandal that almost tried to knock his entire career down. Man! If a young director can create something out of what he was accused of! I can’t imagine how far he might go!! What was the name again… Green Book! Let’s see! #TIan (Team Ian)

[Picture of Ian punching the guy]
Not gonna lie he deserves another punch! How dare someone tell something fake to the newspaper and think he could get away with it! These f*cking people think a reputation can be just bought off and destroyed easily~ It’s not! We are so proud of how Ian faced it and now waiting for his next big hit! Not gonna lie, Ian stole our hearts more than any actor or actress ever could have! #TIan #Forever #HomeAlone #LaLaLand
@Extra26
I heard that someone from a big media frame is behind the whole scene! As far as I’m aware, it could be anyone who is experienced and jealous of Ian! Any guesses? My guess is someone who called him a stroke of one-time luck. There were many of them in the time span of a few months, anyway, so glad to see Ian finally free of the weird drama! #TIan
@Saint_Old_Nutty
Man! Look at the punch he threw at Ian first! But I’m so glad Ian fought back! Or else I myself would have punched the bitch! This also explains that many people might dig up Ian’s scummy past but people do change if they want! Ian was a spoiled brat but not a racist. Of course if he did something like that, I would fully stand against him, but right now… Ian, we are on your side! Good game on the trial! He deserves it! #TIan #Notaracistbitch #calmyoass
“Ahahaha… They truly love me more,” Ian said and chuckled reading more.
“Yeah, I bet your fame went up by a few more percentiles. Also, I have a question. I did read the script of Green Book and it was good, I know. But can you tell me in your words, how it is anti-racist?” Mason asked and sat on his chair.

Ian who was standing the whole time while looking at the computer, seated himself down in front of him wanting to explain the whole thing.
“Hm… Sure. The Green Book is not about anti-racism, it is about racism…”
[At Home]
Ian went home after the little talk with Mason to rest knowing his body is currently tired due to all the stress mentally and physically. But before sleeping, he wanted to do something. Something that might be useful for him in the near future.
He went to the library straightaway and started typing what Green book is about. While writing the title, he planned to publish the article right after the movie. Of course he knew there would be so many interviews and questions about the movie, but for once, he wanted to write down his thoughts because it would be easier and more clear when it gets in the hands of the general public.
“According to me, Green book is a lesson in Humanity and Racism!”
As the writer and the inventor of the idea of Green book, I do have so many things to clear off. First of all, with the trials that I had to face, I wanted to make myself and everyone else in the country clear that racism will only divide people but I stand against it. So should everyone else. This article will explain how my newest movie Green book can be related to all of this. I will start by explaining the story and how some things can change people and relationships.
Apparently, in the segregated south, the ‘green book‘ was a document which listed restaurants and lodging people of color were allowed to patronize in a “For Colored Only” "White Only” United States of America. Enter Dr. Don Shirley. Shirley was a highly accomplished classical jazz pianist who was in demand all over the world. When he decides to tour the southern part of the region, it is decided that hiring a white man as a driver may minimize the trouble he would already be privy to simply based on the color of his skin. When Shirley and Tony Vallelonga meet their lives and they view each other in the world is forever changed.
Tony Lip is a plain and simple scene-stealer in a film one would not think had any humor at all based on its subject matter. You would be wrong with that assumption. I decided to spice up this story with humor for no other reason than to illustrate how incredibly ridiculous racism was and currently is. Dr. Don Shirley is elegance and dignity personified.
One of the most powerful scenes in the film is when Tony’s wife finds two glasses in the trash that contained lemonade that were used by two colored servicemen. It illustrates the disdain toward people of color without uttering one word of dialogue. There are some who may view this film as a “white savior movie.” I view it as a film and lesson on humanity, racism, and the ludicrous ideology associated with both when it comes to anyone that looks or sounds different.
“Green Book” is racism-conscious, it is not anti-racist. It seeks palatability for white audience members to the point of inducing an immobilizing complacency, when what everyone need now more than ever are unabashed, rallying anti-racist messages. With what I faced I realized if only people could see the world as I see it, this movie will be about how people’s lives will change once their perspective on people does.
In my opinion, Green Book is the perfect film for the perfect time in the perfect climate for America and around the world. At the end of the day, we all bleed red regardless of our religion, skin color, or our social or economic status. We all belong to one race – the human race. All we have to do is talk and not judge people by their differences, but look for what we have in common. And we have a lot in common. We all want the same thing: We want love and happiness and want to be treated equally. And that’s not a bad thing.
-Ian Renner, Writer of the Green book.
With a small description, he felt as if everything he wanted to say was now in front of him in a few words. He was hoping that, after the movie's release, he could upload this on social media so that people could see what it was all about.

Soul of the Warrior
In a world where Classes, Stats, and Levels are the everyday norm, Reivyn has a secret. He was unusually aware of his surroundings from an incredibly early age, and Skills and Stats were acquired easily. He was just the son of an ordinary village family, and nothing appeared out of the ordinary on the surface. But below the surface, dreams of another life help shape his mentality and growth. Why does he have some remembrance of a past life, and what is his purpose in this new one? "Soul of the Warrior" is what I call a Semi-Isekai LitRPG. I say "semi," because Reivyn's past life is remembered like a dream, and very incomplete. It is still Isekai, though, as he remembers enough that it directly shapes his personality and his sense of self. The System that governs the world of "Soul of the Warrior" is a combination of modified versions from Selkie's "Beneath the Dragoneye Moons" and Kosnik4's "Magic Smithing." I have changed enough of these Systems and combined them in a way that is unique that I'm mostly sure it's fine, but I still have requested permission to use these ideas. They have both graciously granted me permission. Winner of the April Writathon Challenge. Release Schedule is Mon, Wed, Fri on Royal Road.

Regarding The Life of A Certain Fallen Noble
.. ...Every paths leads to the same destination... Five Saints, five Kings, seven Sins. One entire plane in agony. ..Chaos must reign... In days long past, several Mage Kings cut a path of destruction everywhere they went. Cruel experimentation, the creation of monstrous creatures, the tearing apart of families and mass genocide...There were few crimes the mad Mage Kings didn't commit. As the Five Saints were summoned in desperation by the races of the world, everything was already at it's darkest hour. When the fighting was over, when the Mage Kings were gone and the Five Saints had returned to their planet of origin, a World Council was erected to keep the the delicate balance from falling apart. Many eras pass. Lyle Greyborne. Current heir to the powerful Greyborne family, the only son of Adarian and Alyssa Greyborne. With the maroon hair of his Greyborne ancestory and the exceedingly rare golden eyes of his mother's Bathory clan, Lyle's talents can only be described as terrifying. These, along with his personal status, make him desired by many. After a young Lyle begins a relationship with one Sophia Alderton, two years pass by. Then a lack of trust coupled with a certain misunderstanding leave the two estranged and left on a sour note. But Lyle even still retains his friendship with Cecelia, Sophia's sister. With Cecelia, his loving sister Iris and Melanie--A young woman who recieved his aid some time ago--Lyle is content to pass the days in peace and idleness. Well, when he's not completing harsh missions from his combat instructor, that is. But this peace is ruined when Lyle's father tells of a mysterious group hell-bent on causing war between the human and demon continents. Later, when his father involves him and his sister in an incident resulting in Iris being put in mortal danger, Lyle makes a decision which could very well cost him not his life... but instead his soul. His status, his loved ones, his dignity as a human being... All these may soon be lost. His life isn't his own. Not anymore. He can only brace himself for the things to come and hope he makes it out with his sanity intact. ******************* EDIT- Author Note: Another thing, the cover photo is not mine. Obviously. It's just a picture I found one day at DeviantArt and thought that the two shown in the picture looked like how I imagined Lyle and another character to be. Simply put, it was convenient in various way and I also loved the art. From my understanding is is from a collaboration between artists Chocobikies and Pinlin. Here is a link to where I found the original http://pinlin.deviantart.com/art/Linked-456655669

Twisted Skies
After his master's death, Thurain leaves his rural home behind and travels to Heliana, the cramped city founded on the scientific progress of cultivation. Under a fake name, he aims to enter the Elemental Path Sect, the place of his master's death, to find both his killers, and closure. However, surrounded by the strange and horrible wonders of Heliana and its mixture of heroes and villains, his master's death is not the only murder he may have to solve. --- First attempt at a xianxia novel from me. To shake things up from the usual formula, the setting is more steam-punk than you might expect, and there are elements of murder mystery mixed in with the standard formula (though I'm not entirely sure yet how far to go with it.) I wrote this a while ago for NaNoWriMo, only posting it now for various reasons. Enjoy. Also, cover is highly temporary. I'll probably replace it with something nicer eventually.

On Astral Tides: From Humble Freelancer To Astral Emperor
What would you do if one day you were told you were one of the chosen who would have to battle to save the world? Akio was an average guy, having moved to the big city from his humble town in the mountains. Sure, his IT freelancing job wasn't making him big money, and he wasn't exactly a hit with the ladies, but life wasn't all that bad... until one day a mysterious angel-like being visited him to tell him the Earth was in danger. Many would be chosen to fight this fate, but would any succeed? Of course, if one could have the usual cheat skills everything would work out, wouldn't it? So why was his skill like a garbage pay-to-win mobile game? Akio would have to not only hone his skills and build his Astral Empire, but he would need to raise money, secure land and become a player on Earth too! Facing this challenging task alone would surely be impossible, so Akio needs to make strong and beautiful allies to take on all those who would oppose him. Who would that be, you ask? The old myths of Earth are returning, alien invaders are waiting outside on the Astral Tides, Cultivators are looking for their next faces to slap, Demons are whispering poison into the ears of anyone who would listen, and whoever was trying to save Earth by granting various people powers were making some really awful choices... Join Akio as he starts at the bottom of the ladder, clawing his way to the top and discovering one can change their destiny, so long as they work hard (and have a boat-load of money!). [Note this story is Harem, and since many don't like that, be warned! It's more Sevens than Isekai Smartphone though. There will be some R-15/18 scenes for the Harem (though I have toned down the one posted here from the original drafts more to the R15 side.] The story is pretty much evenly split between progression fantasy and real-world character building and events, hopefully blending together to make a compelling narrative about how someone could change themselves and the people around them for the better if given the chance by some miraculous intervention, while also hopefully saving the world (and maybe other worlds too.] Update schedule revised: Minimum 3/week - Tues/Wed/Thurs but will aim to hit 5/week where possible If you have any questions re: future plot turns/types of things that might happen and want to know so you know whether you'd find it worth your time reading, feel free to drop me a PM and I'll let you know. No story is for everyone, so no worries!

The Puppy Project
"Give me my puppy!" I demanded, my eyes ablazed with fiery anger."Correction, it's not your puppy. It's our puppy," He smiled, but it was anything but sweet nor happy."You know what? Damn you! You're nothing but a cold, emotionless, and heartless bad boy!" I sneered, glaring at him fiercely.He chuckled at my words, taking a step closer to me. He slammed his hand unto the wall, trapping me, before leaning in close. "You got that right sweetheart but I think you got one thing wrong." He said, his eyes piercing straight into mine."And what is that?" I managed to asked, my throat seeming to get drier the more he looked at me."I'm neither one of those when I'm with you," and with those words, slammed his lips into mine.#1 in Strong-Female Character - 1/29/21#1 in Sarcasm - 2/4/21#2 in BadBoy - 2/13/21#3 in Teen Fiction - 2/13/21#1 in Mysterious - 3/4/21Copyrighted 2017.
