"Besides, I don't think he's suitable to write songs for the new movie; it would make people laugh at us for having no one else to write them..."
Luo Shoucheng subconsciously tried to persuade him.
"It's okay, there's strength in numbers."
"Send me this song from your uncle via email, and I'll listen to it carefully."
As he spoke, Zhou An got up to head to Wang Yueheng's film crew.
I learned that the director was going to visit Wang Yueheng on set.
Lin Yin and Cao Da, the female leads of "Journey to the West," also hurriedly followed, eager to catch a glimpse of the young singer's charm.
The other actors looked at each other in surprise, not expecting that the director would be interested in the novice director Wang Yueheng.
Watching director Zhou An's departing figure, Hong Kong film star Law Shou-shing clenched his fists.
In any case, he was unwilling to be outdone by singers from mainland China.
He then turned and went to his nanny van, intending to practice singing the new song his uncle had written a couple of times.
If you have the chance, sing it directly to director Zhou An and make him give up the idea of asking Wang Yueheng to write a song again.
...
On the set of "Dying to Survive".
Wang Yueheng maintained a fast-paced filming schedule.
Try to get each scene right in two or three takes, based on the image you have in mind.
The lead actors, including Xu Zheng, gradually adapted to Wang Yueheng's pace and stopped trying too much, simply filming according to his requirements.
To the surprise of the lead actors...
Although the filming pace was fast, when we looked at the final result on the monitor, there was no sense of haste or abruptness.
On the contrary, each shot was seamlessly and cleverly connected.
With fewer unnecessary shooting attempts, even the post-production editing work was saved.
The unexpected shooting results left everyone in awe.
Opinions on Wang Yueheng, who is directing his first film, have also changed.
"Whoosh!"
"Wow, Director An is here!"
"Oh my god, he actually came to this kind of small film crew?"
"Could they be here for a cameo role?"...
While filming, a commotion suddenly broke out in the surrounding crowd.
"Card!"
"What happened?"
Wang Yueheng, who was focused on filming, heard unusual noises around him and stopped filming. He looked up and asked with displeasure.
"Director Wang... Director Zhou An is here!"
The on-site staff hurriedly explained to Wang Yueheng via walkie-talkie.
"Zhou An? That Hong Kong director?"
Upon hearing this familiar name, Wang Yueheng immediately recalled what Yang Tian had said to him before she left.
Why would this top Hong Kong director come to my film set on his own initiative?
Thinking about this, Wang Yueheng got up and went out.
"Wang Yueheng, right? Nice to meet you! I'm Zhou An. I heard you're filming here and wanted to visit the set."
Upon seeing Wang Yueheng approaching, director Zhou An greeted him with a smile.
He showed none of the imposing demeanor he displayed on film set.
The actresses Lin Yin and Cao Da, who were standing behind him, also took the opportunity to scrutinize Wang Yueheng.
I wanted to see something unique about this mainland singer.
"Director Zhou, it's a pleasure to meet you! It's an honor for our crew to have you visit the set!"
"I hope Director Zhou can give me more guidance!"
With Yang Tian's reminder, Wang Yueheng roughly guessed the purpose of the other party's trip and spoke enthusiastically.
"Here's the thing, I'm currently filming a comedy movie based on the Journey to the West, called 'The Legend of Journey to the West'."
"I heard before that you helped Jackie Chan write the theme song for his movie 'The Myth'."
"So I'd also like you to write a song for my new movie."
"The only special requirement is that I can sing in Cantonese. I wonder if Brother Yue Heng can help me with that."
After a brief chat, Director Zhou An got straight to the point.
