The Greatest Showman – Chapter 144

Chapter 144 – Initial recording test As he stepped into the recording studio, two full rows of guitars of various models and two bookshelves filled with different types of drumheads came into view. Along with all sorts of musical instruments, dazzling and abundant, yet none of them could steal the spotlight. The colossal machine directly in front of him held everyone’s gaze— A mixing console about three meters wide, covered in hundreds upon hundreds of…

The Greatest Showman – Chapter 143

Chapter 143 – Sound City Renly’s head was still throbbing faintly. The hangover pounded at the surface of his brain, making it feel like a group of tiny people were trekking across mountains in his skull. All that remained of last night were broken fragments of memory, impossible to piece together. Not that he wanted to remember—wasn’t the whole point of drinking to forget reality and indulge in unrestrained revelry? Outside the car window, the…

Match Point – Chapter 11

Chapter 11 – Exploring the Rules Bang! McDonald’s powerful forehand shot flew towards Gao Wen at full speed. Despite Gao Wen’s early positioning and attempt to counter with a forehand, the sheer difference in power was overwhelming. In order to effectively resist, Gao Wen had to exert all his strength, but his powerful swing lacked follow-through, and the trajectory of the return ball wasn’t high enough. As a result, although his forehand made solid contact…

The Greatest Showman – Chapter 142

Chapter 142 – Skyrocket “So, are you still planning to go to the recording studio to record? Or are you waiting until you sign with a professional music agent before making any decisions? If needed, I can make a few calls right now.”Andy’s face still wore a Buddha-like smile, though Renly had his eyes tightly shut and couldn’t see it. Renly could sense the gritted teeth behind Andy’s words and waved his hand casually. “What’s…

The Greatest Showman – Chapter 141

Chapter 141 – The curve is elegant and unusual The 62nd Primetime Emmy Awards had come to an end. Most viewers didn’t care much about the ceremony itself. At most, they’d wake up the next morning, skim through the list of winners, and that would be enough. Andy Rogers was no different. He had little interest in television shows, usually focusing his attention on the film industry. However, last night, Renly brought such a huge…

The Greatest Showman – Chapter 140

Chapter 140 – A hot topic again “Thank you, thank you for your help.” Renly patted Elliot on the shoulder, flashing a brilliant smile. “Honestly, you’re a kind guy.” With that, Renly opened the car door, stepped out, and walked toward the nearby mansion. Elliot sat frozen in his seat, his mind unable to process what had just happened: Kind? Kind, my ass! He was not a kind guy! He was… he was here for the…

The Greatest Showman – Chapter 139

Chapter 139 – Baffled That unfamiliar voice abruptly interrupted the conversation, and everyone simultaneously turned to look. Renly sized up the speaker, a little surprised. “…Are you a paparazzo?” Back at the side entrance of the Nokia Theatre, the reporter’s face had all been hidden behind his camera, making it hard to see clearly, so Renly couldn’t recognise the person in front of him. “I prefer to be called a journalist, but…” Elliott Court shrugged.…

Match Point – Chapter 10

Chapter 10 – Shortcut to Improvement Apologize? Why apologize? Did Gao Wen’s supernatural return go out of bounds, prompting McDonald’s apology? Of course not. Gao Wen’s return had landed perfectly within the lines. McDonald’s apology stemmed from a different reason— his own return. Typically, during practice, extreme shots are avoided. After all, these sessions are focused on honing fundamental techniques. The essence of forehand drills lies in consistency, not victory—it’s not even a practice match.…

The Greatest Showman – Chapter 138

Chapter 138 – The First Fan Looking at Hope’s bright and determined eyes, Renly felt slightly embarrassed. His emotions surged wildly within his chest, colliding and crashing without any outlet. It wasn’t just because Hope’s passionate gaze made him experience what it felt like to be a character from Twilight; it was also because Hope’s unwavering words revealed absolute trust and affirmation, weighing heavily on his chest—heavier even than an Emmy trophy. “Wow.” Renly murmured…

Match Point – Chapter 9

Chapter 9 – Superpower Ball “Ah!” McDonald sensed the impending crisis the moment Gao Wen made his move. With a light, skateboard-like touch that borrowed force, Gao Wen reversed the disadvantage of a power-to-power exchange. With a single shot, he created an angle, instantly disrupting McDonald’s rhythm. Yet McDonald, entirely focused on the ball, didn’t lose his concentration. A slight leap in place and a strong push-off with his left foot sent his body hurtling…
