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

The film crew was shooting at the Beijing Film Studio, which is very close to home. Tian Xiaole would go straight home after work, mainly to spend time with his daughter, Tian Xin.

The domestic scenes were filmed quickly, and now it's time to move on to overseas locations for filming.

"Beep beep, (Brother Le)"

As soon as she got home, two fragrant breezes wafted over her. Tang Yan was really shameless, actually vying for favor with Xiao Tianxin.

Tian Xiaole smiled as the two women pounced on him.

He treated everyone equally, lifting Xiao Tianxin with one hand and holding Tang Yan's slender waist with the other.

She asked Xiaotian Xin with concern, "Have you been behaving well at home? Have you had anything good to eat?"

"Baa, I don't like Mom anymore, she won't let me eat meat."

Tang Yan glared at her daughter when she heard her complaining and threatened her:

"You need to control your diet, or when you go to school next year, the other kids will call you 'Little Fatty Pig'."

"I don't want to be called Little Fatty Pig, I don't want to!"

Xiao Tianxin squirmed in Tian Xiaole's arms, expressing her resistance to the name.

"Anyone who dares to yell, I'll beat them up."

To maintain harmony between father and daughter, Tian Xiaole glared at Tang Yan and pushed her aside.

"Ah, baba is so nice."

"Haha, let's go see the big carp."

Seeing the father and daughter chatting and laughing, Tang Yan stomped her foot angrily. She decided that after Tian Xiaole left, she would use her authority as the matriarch to teach Tian Xin a lesson.

·······
"Brother Le, the awards for Best Actor and Best Actress are about to be presented."

Upon hearing Tang Yan's reminder, Tian Xiaole led Xiao Tianxin to the living room.

The movie channel broadcast the Golden Horse Awards ceremony, marking the first time CCTV had done so.

Huang Bo, as an artist under Xiaole Pictures, is the first actor most likely to win an award, and the company is paying close attention to him.

In the Best Actress category, Li Binbin beat Zhou Xun to win her first triple gold award.

He choked up at one point while giving his acceptance speech.

Next came the presentation of the Best Actor award. After a few jokes from the presenters, the award ceremony began.

When Zhang Jiahui's name was announced, the camera focused on Huang Bo. Although he was clapping politely, the disappointment on his face was undeniable.

Then came the dramatic moment: the award presenter read out his name.

Huang Bo was stunned, unable to believe there was such a twist.

"Brother Le, I also want to win an award."

Watching Huang Bo holding the trophy high on the broadcast screen, Tang Yan couldn't help but feel envious.

"Awards aren't given out easily; wait for the Weibo Awards Ceremony to give you two."

Hearing the first half of the sentence, Tang Yan's eyes lit up, but the second half made her angry, and she slapped Tian Xiaole's arm:
"I want to win Best Actress; I want to prove my acting skills."

"Who questioned your acting skills?" Tian Xiaole asked.

"Nobody's questioning it. I graduated from the Central Academy of Drama, so it's normal for me to want to win awards."

Tang Yan, an actress from the Central Academy of Drama, wants to defend this honor.

"I didn't expect you to have such a strong sense of belonging," Tian Xiaole joked with a smile.

Looking at Tang Yan nestled in his arms, he tidied up the stray hairs on her forehead. Her beautiful big eyes, filled with affection, stared at Tian Xiaole's profile.

She doesn't have a sharply defined jawline, but she's still beautiful and pleasing to the eye.

A childish voice broke the ambiguous atmosphere: "Baba, I want a hug too."

Xiao Tianxin shook off the nanny, ran over, climbed onto the sofa, and lay down on his lap.

The mother and daughter, Tian Xiaole and Tian Xiaole, were vying for a spot, their eyes filled with loving smiles.

On the television, Huang Bo's acceptance speech could be heard.

My teacher said, "A man's biggest fear is choosing the wrong career..."

After complaining about his teacher who didn't have high hopes for him, Huang Bo then thanked the mode:

"I'm grateful to my boss, director Tian Xiaole. He read the script for 'Cow' and told me to give it my best performance; it's an award-winning script..."

Boss, you're my god!

"Look at how smug he is, saying such cheesy things."

Tang Yan pouted; Tian Xiaole could only be her one and only god.

·······
The next day, the alarm clock rang.

Tian Xiaole reached out from under the warm blankets to turn off the alarm clock, then hugged the slumbering Tang Yan and continued to doze off for a while.

Not long after, the alarm clock rang again.

"Brother Le, get up quickly, there are so many people in the crew waiting for you."

Tang Yan pushed Tian Xiaole away, wrapped herself up in the quilt, and turned herself into a dumpling. The latter instantly woke up.

Getting up early to work in the dead of winter is pure torture.

After getting dressed, I looked at Tang Yan, who was sleeping soundly. She had worked so hard last night to have a son.

When Tian Xiaole arrived at the Beijing Film Studio, all the preparations were complete.

The more I use Guo Fan as an assistant director, the more comfortable I become with him.

The lead actors, discussing yesterday's speculations, expressed even greater admiration for Tian Xiaole's vision, acknowledging his status as a great director.

People are like germs!
At the same time, they also congratulated Tian Xiaole on gaining a Best Actor under his wing.

"We'll be filming the domestic scenes for a few more days, then we'll be moving to overseas locations. You need to prepare your passports in advance."

Tian Xiaole reminded them that these actors in China had never filmed outside of China before, and there were many things to be aware of that needed to be explained to them clearly.

"Don't worry, director, we've already made preparations."

"Okay, everyone to your positions, let's start filming."

Ten minutes later, a shout of "Action!" rang out.

Against a green screen backdrop, the main actors, dressed in special effects costumes, were suspended in the air by wires.

The story is set against the backdrop of them piloting mechs to patrol and guard the Pacific Ocean.

At the same time, they looked up and gazed in one direction.

Scarlett and Ryan appeared before everyone in the [Alliance Guardian].

Standing 86 meters tall, with an overall silver-white color, it excels in long-range attacks and defense. Its left arm is equipped with a laser cannon and a plasma cannon, while its right hand is a shield that can instantly enlarge.

This mech was created by top scientists from around the world in collaboration with the Pacific Rim Alliance.

It is touted as the most advanced mech.

The alliance seems to have gone mad for some reason, thinking that no matter how advanced such a mech is, its enormous size makes it look clumsy.

Instead, they focused on developing unmanned, scaled-down mechs, so ten years later, there are fewer than ten manned mechs left in existence.

Four towering mechs stood in the air.

Several people are exchanging information through a shared system.

As the team leader, Hu Jun explained the purpose of the operation. He learned from Scarlett that cities near the coast, such as New York and Sydney, were also experiencing magnetic field disturbances.

After a brief conversation, the four teams flew off in four different directions to patrol the waters near the city. Equipped with ultrasonic systems, they were able to detect all marine life on the seabed.

In the footage, eight people are seen performing various operations inside a model mecha.

beep beep...

"A monster has landed on Hong Kong Island. Proceed to its aid immediately! Hong Kong Island is..."

An alarm popped up on the display screen inside the mech.

"Strange, why can't we spot them?"

Liu Yifei was talking with several other people. They had equipped themselves with the most advanced detectors, but there was no reaction at all, which was very unusual.

The closest one, [Flame Fang], controlled by Jing Tian, ​​is heading towards Hong Kong Island.

The other three aircraft immediately turned around and headed to provide support.

"Cut. That's it. Time to change scenes."

Tian Xiaole shouted into the walkie-talkie.

Next, the actors will move to a model city to engage in a new battle with the invading monsters.

The film crew was quite active in the industry during filming.

With the pilot implementation of the China-Japan-Korea Free Trade Area, the Korean Wave swept across Asia and made a major incursion into China.

Han Geng is a popular leader of a boy band. He suddenly returned to China and sued his agency to terminate his contract, instantly attracting the attention of the entertainment industry on both sides.

Major domestic talent agencies reacted quickly, extending offers to recruit them.

Tian Xiaole overheard the discussion on set; the signing fee had reached the level of a top-tier actor, and they were going all out to help him with the lawsuit.

The crosstalk performers and the stand-up comedians got into an argument.

After someone proposed the saying "Zhou in the South and Guo in the North," Zhou Libo, who considers himself to be among the social elite, strongly disagreed.

In the interview, he uttered a classic quote.

"How can someone who drinks coffee sit next to someone who eats garlic?"

He considered himself to belong to high art, while Guo Degang was an ordinary citizen.

Gangzi was no pushover either; as a Hui son-in-law, he had his own set of rules for conduct.

You can criticize others, but you can't criticize him.

Gangzi gave an interview and responded.

"Elegance isn't something you can fake; only a grandson can fake it."

·······
"Wow, comedians are really direct when they curse."

During breaks, the crew members gossiped, as both sides relied on their sharp tongues for a living, and their insults were incredibly varied and creative.

Online media outlets have published photos of Tian Zhuangzhuang and Fu Dalong entering and leaving a restaurant, leading to speculation within the industry that the latter may be the male lead in the film "The Departed".

Old Tian has a sharp eye; the male lead, Li Hong, will be a real test of the actor's skills.

To accurately portray the protagonist's psychological transformation from resistance to awe, one needs to deliver nuanced and seamless acting, which is the core pillar of the emotional tension in the entire drama.

Fu Dalong is a true actor who has always been dedicated to art-house films, and his acting skills are highly versatile. I believe his performance in this role will be no less impressive than the original.

"Director, do you think I can win awards if I make art films?"

Huang Xiaoming often hangs around Tian Xiaole, and even when he teases or scolds him, Tian Xiaole just smiles.

"What's wrong? Did something upset you?"

"My friends are all winning awards. If I don't work harder, they will ostracize me."

Huang Xiaoming was just making conversation for no reason. Who would have nothing better to do than ostracize a nice guy?
"Let's figure out how to make commercial films first."

In accordance with his habit, if he makes a good film, he will reward himself with a domineering CEO role.

But he's also an actor who thrives under pressure; in "The Message," he held his own against Wang Zhiwen in their scenes together.

Filming continued, and the location was moved to a miniature model of Hong Kong Island.

In the footage, workers dressed in monster costumes are wreaking havoc on the city.

Compared to the monsters that used brute force in the previous film, these monsters are much smarter. They form a group of three monsters and use a magnetic field to paralyze the entire city.

When the Kamikaze team arrived in their mechs, the magnetic field caused their screens to flicker with static, and their power systems experienced a disconnection.
The good news is that the artificial intelligence and weapon systems were not affected.

"Oh no, the system has malfunctioned."

"I felt that my movements had become sluggish."

"Save people first."

Boom boom boom boom...

Four mechs descended from the sky, shattering the ground as they fought the monsters while avoiding the crowd.

Unable to fight in the air, the mechs appeared hesitant and fell into a disadvantageous position.

The monsters' evolved abilities caught them off guard, and they were still using outdated combat techniques.

bang~
The [Martial God] mech, piloted by Huang Xiaoming and Jiang Wu, was blasted to the ground, crushing a cluster of buildings.

"Dad, are you alright?"

Looking at Jiang Wu's pale face, Huang Xiaoming asked anxiously.

The former is in poor condition because of his age; his reactions are not keeping up with the interconnectedness of the brain's neural pathways.

Jiang Wu waved his hand and rejoined the battlefield in his mech.

Rumble~
Rumble~
The Alliance Guardians erected their defensive shields, withstanding two waves of physical attacks, but they couldn't defend against the magnetic field attack.

"Fuc*, what kind of pervert is this?"

Scarlett couldn't help but swear.

"This is completely different from the Ten-Year Monster; it feels like it has no weaknesses."

Hu Jun roared, completely different from his previous aggressive demeanor.

"No, their horns are glowing, as if they can connect with each other, just like us."

Liu Yifei, being observant, noticed that the monster's horns would flash every time it attacked.

"Hahaha, that must be it. The reason we can have a brain-to-brain connection is because Professor Li discovered the monster's secret."

"Attack their heads with all your might, especially their sharp horns."

Boom boom boom boom...

After discovering the weakness, the four mechs spread out and took shape.

The front row is composed of [Alliance Guardian], with [Flame Fang] and [Wu Sheng] on the left and right sides respectively.

【Red Whirlwind】Stand in the center, build up your plasma laser cannon, and make sure to hit the target with one strike.

Boom boom...

With the added special effects in post-production, it would be daytime at this moment, with only the sound of buildings collapsing.

At this point, half of the model city on Hong Kong Island had already been destroyed.

Meanwhile, as described in the script, cities such as New York and Sydney are being invaded by monsters, and the Alliance has dispatched unmanned mechs to stop them.

Due to the interference of the magnetic field, the rescue drone became a sitting duck and was torn into countless pieces of iron.

"Click! This one's through."

Tian Xiaole called out, "Actors, prepare to change scenes."

During the breaks when the staff were moving equipment, he pulled up the film to check the quality of the footage he had just shot.

Suddenly, a commotion arose outside the film set, and a production assistant ran over and said:
"Director, Sister Tang has come to visit the set."

Tian Xiaole frowned. Why is she causing trouble instead of staying home and taking care of the child?

"Brother Le, you've worked hard on the filming."

From afar, Tang Yan was already shouting, as if afraid others wouldn't hear her.

"I brought coffee and snacks for everyone, please distribute them, staff."

"Thank you, Sister Tang."

"Sister Yan is generous."

Throughout the film crew, expressions of gratitude resounded.

Tang Yan smiled warmly and waved in response, displaying the aura of the company's top female executive.

"Brother Le, this hot cup was specially saved for you. It will warm you up."

Tian Xiaole took it and tasted it. Tang Yan knew his taste very well; the greatest bitterness he had ever experienced in his life was probably coffee.

"Why did you come here?"

"I was bored at home, and since Xiaotianxin has her grandma taking care of her, I came to visit."

Tang Yan spoke very softly, observing Tian Xiaole's reaction.

She can bring up family matters in public today and announce them to the public tomorrow; she's slowly testing the limits.

Not far away, Jing Tian and Liu Yifei were quite surprised by the staff's attitude towards Tang Yan.

As Tian Xiaole's direct team, they shouldn't be so easily bribed.

"Hmph, this will really delay the filming."

"Tian Tian, ​​you..."

Hearing Jing Tian's mutterings, Liu Yifei realized for the first time that Jing Tian harbored hostility towards others.

"Sisi, the coffee is hot; it will warm you up."

Tang Yan patrolled her tacitly agreed territory like a wolf warrior. On the surface, she was all smiles at her best friend Liu Yifei, but she was secretly on guard.

In her little notebook, Liu Yifei's level of threat was second only to Fan Binbin.

"Thank you for the coffee."

The two are best friends who haven't seen each other for a long time, and they are holding hands now.

Liu Yifei introduced Jing Tian, ​​who was standing next to her. Although they had met in public, she couldn't say she knew her.

"This is Jing Tian, ​​you can also call her Tian Tian."

"Just call me by my name."

Jing Tian was at an age where she couldn't keep secrets. She was very unhappy that Liu Yifei had Tang Yan call her Tian Tian, ​​a title that should only be used by close friends and family.

Tang Yan nodded, not paying much attention to Tian Xiaole. Based on her understanding of Tian Xiaole, she didn't like this kind of little brat.

"Tian Tian, ​​come and take a look at this shot."

Tian Xiaole waved to Jing Tian from a short distance away. Knowing she might get scolded, the latter still smiled.

She deliberately avoided using her title: "Oh, Brother Xiao Le, I'm here."

Tang Yan watched Jing Tian's retreating figure, then turned to Liu Yifei and asked:
"Why does she call me 'brother' too?"

"how could I know."

Liu Yifei shrugged, slightly dissatisfied with Tang Yan's domineering behavior; she even called him "Senior Brother Tian."

Tang Yan didn't ask any more questions and secretly added Jing Tian's name to her notebook.

·······
Filming in China has been completed in two weeks.

The remaining scenes for 【Pacific Rim】 will be filmed in New York, Australia, Egypt, and other locations.

Tian Xiaole had the crew transport the equipment to Sydney, so that he could take advantage of the few days spent coordinating the filming schedule to attend the premieres of "The Treasure Hunter" and "A Simple Noodle Story".

On the other hand, Liu Shishi felt empty inside. Half a month had passed since she sent a text message to Tian Xiaole, but she hadn't received a reply.

They've probably long forgotten about this unknown actress.

What she didn't know was that Tian Xiaole didn't check any messages during filming; she would naturally make a phone call if there was an emergency.

buzzing...

Liu Shishi's phone vibrated. She picked it up and glanced at it, then covered her mouth in surprise.

The pervert who touched her thigh finally replied to her.

Yes. At least that's what Liu Shishi thinks.

It was very short, just one sentence, but it warmed her heart.

"No audition needed, you're the one."

·······
While cleaning up her phone messages, Tian Xiaole saw a greeting from Liu Shishi, who mentioned wanting to audition for the role of Feng Jiaqi.

There was only one female supporting role, so I just gave it to her casually.

Consider it compensation.

buzzing...

Liu Shishi sent a text message: "Thank you, Director Tian. I will try my best to play this role well... I wish you a smooth filming process."

Looking at the green and brief greeting, Tian Xiaole felt a little uncomfortable. If it were any other female celebrity, she would have seized the opportunity.

You should know that he doesn't reply to every text message.

I just occasionally reply to other people; it might just be something I do on a whim.

"Looking forward to your performance."

Tian Xiaole pressed send, indicating that he was following her. (End of Chapter)
