Lin Yuan tactfully declined Director Ang Lee's kind offer.
He had just ended the call when his phone rang again.
"Going with you to watch the Meteor Shower, falling onto this Earth..."
It was the hit song "Meteor Shower" from 2001.
Lin Yuan had set it as Director Cohen's ringtone, so he answered without even looking. "Director Cohen, what is it?"
"Half an hour ago, Director Sommers jumped from a building. He leaped from a window at the Conrad Hotel, and his death has been confirmed."

"I'm feeling rather heavy-hearted." Seeing that Lin Yuan said nothing, Director Cohen added.
Director Cohen and Director Sommers had not been particularly close, but they had known each other for many years. Otherwise, he would not have wanted to introduce Lin Yuan for a role in "The Mummy Returns" before.
Even though they had later fallen out completely, Director Cohen had never wished for Director Sommers to meet such an end.
"This isn't your fault. If he hadn't wanted to drive you out of Hollywood, it wouldn't have come to this. He brought it on himself," Lin Yuan comforted him.
"I understand everything you said, but I can't help feeling sad. I won't disturb you any longer. I'll hang up now," Director Cohen said.
