This director is so innocent.

Holy crap...

Wen Zhang and Li Xiaolu were shocked. What had they heard?

Change the lines?

Has Su Jin become so arrogant?

Everyone knows that Da Gangzi has a terrible temper. Anyone who dares to change his lines is asking for trouble and will get a severe scolding...

When they saw Da Gangzi standing to the side looking completely unconcerned, they instantly understood that Su Jin had persuaded him.

"What should we change it to?" Li Xiaolu asked curiously.

"Change 'I hate you' to 'Go to hell,' and change the gesture to 'push.'"

After thinking for a moment, Li Xiaolu replied "OK".

Soon after, preparations were completed, and filming began.

"Let me tell you, I'm a really good man," Emblem said with a smile.

"Get lost." Li Xiaolu said shyly, pushing the emblem away with her hand.

"Ouch..."

Caught off guard, the emblem fell off the stool in an instant.

The staff members smiled as they witnessed this.

Da Gangzi didn't laugh, but he felt that the effect was much better than before.

"Not bad, you have a knack for directing." Da Gangzi praised Su Jin.

Su Jin remained silent, offering only a modest smile.

In his view, this was child's play and had nothing to do with spirituality.

To be honest, Da Gangzi has a really bad temper.

Even the slightest mistake, and they start setting off firecrackers.

"Can you even act? If you can't, then get out."

"Is this how your teacher taught you? I'm ashamed for your teacher."

"How many times have I told you? Can you please stop being so stupid? It's fine if you're stupid, but don't drag everyone else down with you."

"If you can't even handle such a simple word, how dare you call yourself a graduate of a film academy?"

They really don't care about the actors' feelings at all. When they get angry, they start cursing on the spot, and you can't even talk back...

Commander Ma, Li Xiaolu, and several others were all criticized, and he himself was no exception.

At first, he wanted to talk back, but Da Gangzi spoke too fast, and he couldn't retort at all.

After that, I just let him be.

Since everyone's already been criticized, what's the point of worrying about saving face?

For the next two weeks, Su Jin would spend all her free time learning from Da Gangzi and took many photos.

People went from being curious at the beginning to taking it for granted.

Wang Ying handed Su Jin a Yuxi cigarette and said, "When are you going to show me the script you mentioned?"

The month before last, Su Jin asked him to be his assistant director. He said he needed to see the script first, but he still hasn't seen a trace of it.

Thinking about this, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

Could it be that this guy saw how much his skills have improved and decided not to hire him as an assistant director?

"Script? What script?" Su Jin looked at Wang Ying with a puzzled expression.

"Holy crap...you haven't forgotten, have you?!" Wang Ying's eyes widened instantly, and he couldn't help but swear.

"I haven't forgotten, how could I forget? I'll show you the script in a couple of days." Su Jin chuckled sheepishly; he had indeed forgotten.

"That's more like it. Tell me about the general plot first."

"The plot is very simple: the protagonist becomes famous at a young age, but one day, his parents are shot and killed, and he is framed as the murderer by the prosecutor."

Upon hearing this, Wang Ying frowned immediately.

A young man who becomes famous at a young age, whose parents are shot and killed, and who later seeks revenge—a plot that has been written to death in the market.

If that's all there is to it, then he'll have to think about it.

"One day, the male protagonist suddenly discovers that his world is fake, and that he is actually the male protagonist of a comic book..."

Holy crap...

Can you do this?

Wang Ying immediately became interested and perked up, ready to hear what was to come.

But Su Jin wouldn't talk about it anymore.

"Go on! What happened next?"

"The story is too long for me to finish telling."

"There are no night shoots tonight, I'll go to your company with you to watch."

"No need, I'll just call my company and ask them to send someone over."

"That's fine too."

After the chat ended, Su Jin called Huang Jiaqiang and asked him to have someone deliver the script.

Forty minutes later, Su Jin received the script.

He found Wang Ying and said, "Brother Wang, very few people have seen this script; it can't be leaked."

"Don't worry, your brother Wang is a man of impeccable character," Wang Ying assured him, patting his chest.

After filming wrapped up in the afternoon, Wang Ying returned the script to Su Jin.

The plot was so captivating that he couldn't put it down.

"When will you turn it on?"

"You agree?"

"nonsense."

"It's estimated that the machine will be operational around April or May next year."

"So late? Do you have plans later?"

"Yes, I need to finish filming one movie before I can film this."

OK.

……

Late September, on the film set.

After more than three months of filming, "Struggle" has finally wrapped up.

Wearing sunglasses and holding a megaphone, Da Gangzi announced, "I hereby declare that filming for 'Struggle' has officially wrapped."

bang bang bang...

Colorful ribbons fluttered in the sky.

Cheers and shouts from the crew echoed across the set.

"There's a wrap party tonight, no one can take leave, everyone has to come. We're not leaving until we're drunk."

"Thank you, director."

"The director is magnanimous."

Da Gangzi waved his hand, signaling the staff on site to pack up their things.

Wang Luodan and Xu Cuicui said their goodbyes in tears. The two girls didn't know each other at school, but they became best friends on set.

Xu Cuicui plays Lulu. She is a junior of Su Jin and Wang Luodan, and a student in the 03 class of the Performance Department at Beijing Film Academy.

She also has another identity: a contracted actress with Xinbaoyuan.

Commander Ma and Li Xiaolu weren't particularly sad; they were both veteran actresses and had long been used to such farewells.

Luo Jin and Wen Zhang showed no emotion; the two huddled together and smoked.

Su Jin looked at everyone calmly, her emotions unchanged, still smiling.

"How come you're not sad at all?" Li Xiaolu asked, leaning closer to Su Jin.

"Why should I be sad?" Su Jin asked with a smile.

This question startled Li Xiaolu. After a long pause, she said, "Do you have emotional detachment disorder?"

"What illness?"

"Emotional detachment syndrome".

Is this condition medically recognized?

"No, I made that up."

"What nonsense are you spouting?"

"Just tell me if you have it or not!"

"no."

He certainly doesn't have the emotional detachment disorder that Li Xiaolu mentioned.

He is not sad because he doesn't show his emotions outwardly.

In other words, a repressed, secretly passionate person.

After chatting with Li Xiaolu for a while, Su Jin said goodbye to Da Gangzi and returned to the hotel.

After returning to the hotel, I took a shower and then reviewed what I had learned over the past three months.

Overall, he was satisfied with his performance over the past three months.

He performed quite well, although he received a lot of criticism, but his acting skills improved, and most importantly, his directing skills also improved significantly.

If I had to give myself a score, I'd give myself 99.

The one point I missed was because I didn't communicate with Commander Ma.

Commander Ma probably had the same idea; this is something he observed in his daily life.

But the emblem followed too closely, and the two never spoke to each other alone.

I have to say, the emblems are really amazing!
