Huayu Entertainment: You have been directing for three generations, are you comparing your qualifica

Chapter 240 of [Pacific Rim] is scheduled for release!
rustling...

A black Mercedes-Benz van was parked steadily at the entrance of the narrow alley.

The car door opened, and assistants Xiaowen and Xiaoli got out first, opening a black parasol to shield themselves from paparazzi who might be lying in wait to take photos.

Immediately afterwards, the maternity nurse carefully escorted the baby carrier off the bus.

Little Tianxin was sleeping soundly, her chubby fingers being sucked by her little mouth.

Tian Xiaole and Tang Yan, who had arrived a step ahead, were helping the old lady and eagerly waiting.

Old Tian rubbed his hands together, resisting his urge to smoke, knowing that secondhand smoke was harmful to the baby.

"Oh my, my little sweetheart is here."

When the old lady saw the group of people entering, she broke free from "Mrs. Niu's" hand and went to greet "Little Sweetie".

Tang Yan suppressed a laugh, tilted her head slightly, and looked a little smug.

This is the baby she gave birth to.

As long as she wins the old lady's favor, her position as the empress will be secure.

Tian Xiaole raised an eyebrow and glared at her.

Tang Yan didn't care at all, and with a sweet smile, she called out in a cloyingly sweet voice, "Grandma, wait for me."

After saying that, he turned around and glanced at Mrs. Niu, his little expression quite smug.

The plan to elevate a mother's status through her daughter was very successful.

Tian Xiaole's throat moved, and finally he sighed. He had miscalculated.

This is good too; it allows the old lady to see a house full of children and grandchildren, fulfilling her wish.

······
The old lady's gaze passed through the nanny box and landed on the sleeping baby in the swaddling clothes.

His eyes were full of loving eyes.

Her eyebrows and eyes look just like Tian Xiaole's when she was young, and her small mouth is still unconsciously twitching.

That was her granddaughter.

The old lady's eyes suddenly welled up with tears. She wanted to reach out and hug her, but she was afraid of disturbing the sleeping little Tianxin.

Tang Yan's heart skipped a beat. Seeing the old lady's moist eyes, she said softly and uneasily:
"Grandma, don't you like Tian Xin?"

"I like it, of course I do."

The old lady wore a loving smile, took Tang Yan's hand, and gently patted the back of her hand.

Her son is a disappointment; he's remained single, which worries her a lot.

He was worried that his grandson would follow in his father's footsteps, but now he can see four generations of the Tian family, which puts his mind at ease.

A century later, this can be considered an explanation to Lao Tian.

"Xiao Le, come here."

The old lady called out to Tian Xiaole, who was standing behind her.

"grandmother."

Tian Xiaole went to greet her.

Seeing the two holding hands tightly, he immediately sensed something was wrong.

Then the old lady said, "I don't interfere in your young people's affairs, but Xiao Tang is a good girl, you must treat her well, understand?"

"Don't worry, Grandma, I treat her very well."

Tian Xiaole turned to look at Tang Yan and said, "Right, right, Xiao Tang?"

"Grandma, Brother Le is very good to me."

Xiao Tang immediately proved that it was too early to be complacent.

······
The Tian family became lively, a scene not seen for a long time.

Every time Xiaotian Xin rolls over or smiles, it captivates the entire family.

Not to mention the two new parents, the rough and uncouth old man Tian was even less capable of coaxing a child.

The old lady was too old and had forgotten how to coax children.

I relied entirely on the childcare specialist for care, who also gave me instructions on precautions.

Tian Xiaole gave her two assistants a vacation. They had been abroad for over a year and were already homesick.

Before leaving, I repeatedly reminded him to be careful with his words and actions.

Xiaowen and Xiaoli happily went home with the bonus Tian Xiaole gave them.

······
The reputation of "Red Cliff" has completely collapsed.

But the more it was criticized, the faster the box office grew.

It grossed over 2 million yuan in just 10 days, breaking the record for the fastest-grossing film ever made.

"Little Days" also maintained high growth, becoming one of the most successful Chinese-language films in recent years.

Tony Leung, who starred in the film, married Carina Lau in Bhutan.

Most surprisingly, both sides invited their respective rumored romantic partners.

The man invited Maggie Cheung to attend, while the woman invited Hu Jun to attend.

Netizens exclaimed that the entertainment industry really knows how to have fun.

Those in the industry chuckled, saying, "This is nothing."

When Tian Xiaole arrived at the company, Chen Zhixi had already prepared the expanded script for "Lurking" and placed it on her desk.

"Have you found a director yet?"

While flipping through the script, Tian Xiaole asked without looking up.

"Screenwriter Jiang Wei volunteered to direct this series; he had directed it before..."

Listening to Chen Zhixi's report, Tian Xiaole frowned. The script adaptation was good, but there were several major flaws.

For example, when Ma Kui was arrested, he was accused of being a member of the Red Army and had sneaked into the station chief's office, which led to the exposure of the spy "Buddha Niche" who was lurking in Yan'an.

Even though he was almost convicted, they didn't reveal that Yu Zecheng was also in the office at the time and saw the top-secret document as well.

This is illogical.

Tian Xiaole tossed the script over and said, "Let's put the director's business aside for now and let him fill in the script's flaws first."

"Good boss."

After Chen Zhixi left the office, Tian Xiaole started reading the news online.

With the Olympics approaching, the entertainment industry is buzzing with excitement.

Many actors and celebrities are applying for the qualification of torchbearer.

This is where an actor's commercial value and fame come into play.

The confirmed list for the Capital Station includes Jackie Chan, thanks to his influence and global fame.

Zhang Liangying was recommended by the Volkswagen Group to be a torchbearer for the Capital Station. Zhang Ziyi, accompanied by her fiancé, was also vying to be a torchbearer, jumping around excitedly.

Tian Xiaole couldn't wait any longer; she needed to finalize the quota as soon as possible.

The significance of the Capital Station is definitely different from that of other stations.

Tian Xiaole first went to the special effects department to check on the progress of "Pacific Rim" before heading to China Film Group.

Quite by chance, I ran into Yang Shoucheng right after getting off the bus, accompanied by his spokesperson, Huo Wenxi.

As usual, she was dressed like a powerful urban woman.

White shirt, black suit jacket, knee-length skirt, legs covered in black stockings.

Behind them followed a reserved Zhong Xintong.

Upon seeing Tian Xiaole, Yang Shouchang's eyes lit up, and he greeted her with a smile:

"Director Tian, ​​congratulations! Your new film is a global box office hit."

"Thank you. Mr. Yang, is there something you need here?"

Tian Xiaole asked curiously

"Well, it's been so long since what happened last time, let's see if we can relax the restrictions."

Yang Shoucheng felt somewhat helpless, still running around for these trivial matters at his age.

The actresses implicated in the photo scandal have all their endorsements, advertisements, and film contracts banned from being broadcast in mainland China.

Since Yang Shoucheng has come to China Film Group in person, there should be a turning point in this matter.

Tian Xiaole smiled. He had nothing to say about this. It was a mutual agreement between the two parties, and it even benefited the majority of netizens.

"Please go first, Mr. Yang. My business isn't urgent."

Tian Xiaole told Yang Shoucheng to go into the office first, as he didn't want to get involved.

"Thank you."

······
Tian Xiaole went to the adjacent reception room, where Han Sanping's secretary came over to greet him and brought tea and fruit.

Huo Wenxi walked in leisurely, with Zhong Xintong following behind him, looking very reserved.

"Would you like to have a drink with me, Director Huo?"

"Then I'll have to rely on Director Tian's help."

Huo Wenxi sat in the empty seat next to him and began to savor the tea that only Han Sanping could drink.

The tea is good, but people who are used to drinking Western coffee can't appreciate its quality.

"Director Huo, you haven't forgotten what you promised me, have you?"

Tian Xiaole looked at her and suddenly asked a question.

"I promise you...?" Huo Wenxi remembered, her face flushed, and she coughed lightly:
"Of course not, it's always been prepared for Director Tian."

After speaking, she adjusted her posture, deliberately stretching out her legs, which were originally crossed, to show off their shape.

Zhong Xintong, standing next to her, looked down at her shoes like a quail.

I kept my distance, not daring to disturb the two of them.

"Just remember."

Tian Xiaole looked away, picked up a piece of fruit, and put it in her mouth.

Taking the opportunity, Huo Wenxi brought up the sequel to "Ip Man": "Director Tian, ​​the 'Ip Man' series has a great reputation, and Gao Yuanyuan's scandal has been over for so long, shouldn't it be rebooted?"

Tian Xiaole thought for a moment and realized that since they hadn't started any new projects this year, it was time to film a sequel.

"Since Director Huo has said so, let's restart it, but the script won't be ready so soon."

Huo Wenxi was delighted; she had agreed to Yang Shoucheng's troubles without hesitation.

"The script isn't urgent, as long as the project restarts."

·······
"Director Tian, ​​Chairman Han wants to see you."

Han Sanping's secretary came over and said.

As they arrived at the office door, Yang Shoucheng was the first to walk out.

"Director Tian, ​​you can go in now!"

Tian Xiaole nodded. Judging from his relaxed expression, it must have been a good result.

This is why having a strong brokerage firm is so important.

"Xiao Le, the Olympic torchbearer issue has been resolved. After comprehensive consideration, you have been successfully selected as the torchbearer for the capital city."

As soon as Tian Xiaole sat down on the sofa, Han Sanping said in a boastful tone.

"Thank you, Uncle Han. If you hadn't given me my name, I wouldn't have been able to find a way in."

"We're all on the same side, no need for such formalities."

Han Sanping was very happy. After taking advantage of her for so long, there was finally something he could do to help Tian Xiaole.

"Your movie did well at the overseas box office, so the domestic marketing and distribution must be good too. Let's aim for a global box office of over 3 million US dollars."

Han Sanping was very excited. It's rare for a director in China to have a film that resonates with overseas audiences.

The only downside is that it's a foreign language film.

Tian Xiaole didn't care; his current focus was on the Pacific Rim.

"Uncle Han, post-production for [Pacific Rim] is almost finished. If all goes well, it will be released by the end of the year."

"Okay, okay..."

Han Sanping slapped his thigh and repeatedly said "good".

This film faced immense pressure from the outset, experiencing numerous setbacks from its initial planning stages to post-production.

Before I knew it, the movie was about to be released.

"The subject matter is not a problem to pass the censorship, but if we spend another two months on promotion, then we can only put it in the Spring Festival season."

"That's because it clashed with Ning Hao's film, 'Crazy Racer,' which was also released during the Spring Festival."

"It's alright, just move him to the Lunar New Year release slot."

With a wave of his hand, Han Sanping told Tian Xiaole that the matter was settled.

After finishing his business, Tian Xiaole grabbed two boxes of tea and prepared to leave, busy going home to play with Xiao Tianxin.

But Han Sanping stopped her.

"Xiao Le, shouldn't we start preparing for the sequel to 'Painted Skin'?"

"I've been very busy lately, and I haven't come up with any new stories yet. I'll talk about it when I have more free time."

Han Sanping nodded in disappointment. Unable to extract any new projects, he had no choice but to let Tian Xiaole leave.
