Chen Zi'ang transmigrated to a parallel world and became the son of a renowned director.
After achieving a miracle in Hollywood, Chen Zi'ang resolutely returned to China.
Forced to take over the filming of a lousy movie, Chen Zi'ang decided to lie flat and just muddle through.
However, director Zhou Xingxing could hear his inner thoughts.
This pretty boy can act? I've been cringing so hard my toenails are digging into the floor. This is going to lose money.
Could you put a little more feeling into those lines? I really ought to show you what a classic looks like.
Five-cent special effects. The effects I'd make with my feet would be better than this.
Zhou Xingxing: "..."
And so, classic films like A Chinese Odyssey, The Promise, The Legend of Zu, and Painted Skin were transformed from rubbish into masterpieces by Chen Zi'ang's wild rewrites, creating one box-office miracle after another.
After the box office passed ten billion, Chen Zi'ang confidently picked up the script for Shanghai Fortress. Damn, this one can be made!
This novel and its characters are entirely fictional. Any similarities are purely coincidental. Do not imitate.
It was very well written, but why did it disappear? Keep going!
Why is it gone? It's quite beautiful.
