Tang Qian acted quickly. After the script was completed, Jiang Wenwen designed the costumes based on the script, and Snake King designed the action sequences based on the script. The rest was to find a director and actors.

The process was progressing smoothly, and Tang Qian was very satisfied.

China's entertainment industry is gradually developing, especially in the last two years, influenced by Hong Kong and Taiwan, and has made great progress.

As long as the money is in place, everything else will be in place quickly.

Tang Qian originally wanted to find an experienced director, but when the director saw that it was a private company hiring people to make a movie, he was a little careless. After reading the script, he felt that the plot was not good and insisted on changing it.

If he could come up with something new, Tang Qian wouldn't mind making changes, but if the revised version ended up being similar to the old, clichéd stories, then there was no point in doing it again.

However, since this was approved by Tang Qian and all the other directors, they naturally couldn't let him change it, so they changed the director instead.

Everything is ready, but how can we do without a director?

“Tang Qian, how about this? I’ll use my connections to find a director from Hong Kong for this movie, and then we can train a few young directors as well,” He Tiantian said. “Slowly, we’ll have our own directors.”

Tang Qian nodded and said, "Alright! I don't have many connections over there, so who are you planning to contact?"

“Hehe, Er Yuehong, the most popular martial arts novelist in Hong Kong right now, is my student. If we ask him to help on the front lines, we can definitely find a good director,” He Tiantian said. “Then, I used to teach at a film school, so I can find a few young graduates to train.”

Tang Qian was overjoyed and said, "Er Yuehong is your student? I didn't expect that. You have quite a wide network of connections."

“That’s right.” He Tiantian said proudly, “Although we can’t say we have students all over the world, we are still considered a model teacher. It’s perfectly normal to have a few successful students.”

"Hehe, impressive," Tang Qian said. "What you just said about training a few young directors is a good idea. The only problem is that those talented directors are unwilling to come and only want to go to film studios."

"It's alright, it just depends on who has the vision and courage," He Tiantian said with a smile. "If someone has faith in us, we will treat them with sincerity."

"Okay!" Tang Qian agreed.

Tang Qian and He Tiantian drove directly to the school and found Qin Shuang.

"Qin Shuang, you're a senior now, what are your plans?" He Tiantian asked Qin Shuang to come out and chat.

Qin Shuang is the same Qin Shuang who was a directing student who used to ride a bicycle with He Tiantian, who had broken her heel. The two used to have a lot of contact when they were in school.

"Sigh, I guess I'll just have to work at a film studio anyway." Qin Shuang smiled bitterly. "You have to endure a lot in this line of work, especially since I'm a woman, the opportunities are even fewer!"

"I own an entertainment company, and there's a filming opportunity. Would you like to participate?" He Tiantian asked, looking to see if Qin Shuang was as straightforward as her name suggested.

"Oh?" Qin Shuang exclaimed excitedly, "Teacher He, you're going to introduce me to a filming opportunity? What kind of film?"

He Tiantian nodded and said, "I'm investing in a movie with someone else. Everything is ready except for the final push. We've brought in a director from Hong Kong, but I also want to train directors for our own company."

"Teacher He, I'm afraid I'll mess things up for you." Qin Shuang said somewhat embarrassedly.

"Hehe, I'm not afraid, so what are you afraid of?" He Tiantian laughed. "We're a young company with a small staff. If you'd like, I'll take you there tomorrow."

Qin Shuang thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll give it a try. Can I ask what type it is?"

"A martial arts film, a martial arts movie about Tai Chi," He Tiantian replied. "As long as you make a good film, the pay will naturally be substantial."

Qin Shuang smiled and said, "If Teacher He gives me this opportunity, I don't need any payment."

Tang Qian listened attentively and observed Qin Shuang carefully; she was a straightforward girl.

"Qin Shuang, we're training you now, and I hope you'll sign with our entertainment company," Tang Qian said. Since they're giving Qin Shuang a chance, it's to train her, and signing a contract would be safer.

Qin Shuang was taken aback and said, "Mr. Tang, Teacher He, it's not that I don't want to sign, but my father wants me to go to the film studio, I..."

He Tiantian gave Tang Qian a wink and said, "Let's not talk about the contract for now. We'll talk about it after you've filmed this movie, and then we'll show you our capabilities and whether we have a future."

"Thank you, Teacher He." Qin Shuang breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that Mr. Tang would press on and she wouldn't be able to refuse.

After that, Tang Qian and He Tiantian found three more directors, two of whom were senior college students and the other was a young director at a film studio who had to take on freelance work because there was no work at the film studio.

With the director from Hong Kong in place, Tang Qian was in full charge, while He Tiantian was no longer involved.

He Tiantian began training, completing the daily tasks required by the team.

Because of the Snake King, because He Tiantian invested in the project, and because Tang Qian frequently visited He Tiantian, He Tiantian became very familiar with the situation on set.

The filming was going smoothly until the Snake King beat up the director from Hong Kong.

He Tiantian was somewhat surprised when she heard the news over the phone, but she believed that the Snake King would not hit people for no reason and there must be a hidden reason.

That evening, He Tiantian and Huo Yingjie waited for the Snake King again.

When Snake King returned, it was already 10:30 PM. The lights were still on in the living room, indicating that He Tiantian and Huo Yingjie were still awake. He had no choice but to bite the bullet and come over to explain.

“Actually, it’s not my fault today,” Snake King said. “That Hong Kong director is a scoundrel. He actually harassed Qin Shuang. Before, because of filming, Qin Shuang didn’t dare to make a fuss, but that guy became even more blatant when he started touching her, and the things he said were really nasty. I couldn’t hold back and hit that fat guy.”

He Tiantian laughed and said, "I know you wouldn't hit someone for no reason."

Hearing He Tiantian say that, the Snake King felt much more at ease.

He enjoys his vibrant life now and doesn't want to leave, but at the same time, he doesn't want to cause trouble for He Tiantian.

"Of course, I'm not one to bully the weak," the Snake King said matter-of-factly. "But now that the director's gone, what about the rest of the filming?"

He Tiantian frowned, then said, "Go back and wash up and rest first. I'll go with you to take a look tomorrow, which is the weekend."

"Alright then." The Snake King shrugged. "We'll deal with whatever comes our way. Don't be afraid, we'll get through this."

After the Snake King left, Huo Yingjie chuckled and said, "You're destined to be a busybody!"

"Life is about movement; if you're not busy, you feel like you're wasting your time," He Tiantian said with a smile. "Isn't that right?"

"Whether it's wasting time or not, I'm not sure," Huo Yingjie laughed, "but I do know what exercise is all about!"

After saying that, he picked up He Tiantian and started exercising!

We must adhere to the principle that life lies in movement, and remain steadfast in this principle for the long term.

He Tiantian was startled, but she also went along with her husband's "fallacy" and they both succumbed to the pleasures of love...
