Chapter 65 What a load of crap!! (Second update, please continue reading)
Song Hao never expected that there would be fans waiting for him at the airport in Hunan Province!

He watched as many fans came forward, holding light sticks and smiling as they greeted him.

"Director Song, could you give me your autograph?"

"I'd like to have a cameo role in your next film, is that alright?"

“My mom really loves the movie you made, ‘The Flowers of War.’ She said she definitely wants to take me to see Nanjing this winter vacation.”

Song Hao was overwhelmed by everyone's enthusiasm, and he could only explain to each of them, "I'll sign a few autographs for you first, then I'll be going to the TV station to record a program."

"Thank you, Director Song!~"

"Thank you, sign here~"

While signing autographs, Song Hao vaguely sensed that someone was watching him.

However, he cared too much about it.

As the TV crew arrived, Song Hao left the scene with them.

The young man introduced himself: "Director Song, hello, I'm Xiao Liu, the one who contacted you before."

"Hey? You're here to pick me up? Didn't you say it was another colleague before we boarded the plane?" Song Hao asked.

Liu Yiquan explained, "I just finished my work, so I'll personally greet you. After all, I was in charge of overseeing your recording schedule for the past two days."

"Then I'll have to trouble you," Song Hao replied.

"You're welcome. The director is already waiting in the car. Let's hurry over," Liu Yiquan reminded them.

To avoid keeping the other directors waiting, Song Hao quickly walked over as well.

As soon as the car door was opened...

He was speechless.

So it was Tang Guorong.

I should have walked slower and made this guy wait longer.

However, in front of outsiders, Song Hao still pretended to smile and said, "Director Tang, it's been a long time."

Having just experienced an embarrassing situation, Tang Guorong was in no good mood at this moment.

But since the staff from Hunan TV were all there, he could only offer a perfunctory reply: "Long time no see."

Song Hao then got into the car.

Tang Guorong probably didn't want to get too close, and even disdainfully moved to the side.

Seeing this, Song Hao didn't stand on ceremony and asked directly, "Director Tang, have you been filming any movies lately? I'd like to learn from you and exchange ideas."

Tang Guorong knew this guy was trying to provoke him, so he frowned and said, "No, I've been studying recently, and I only accepted the invitation to this program when I had some free time these days. I don't do just any film."

Liu Yiquan could tell that the two didn't have a good relationship.

He added tactfully, "Yes, it's an honor for our program, 'Directors, Please Speak,' that Director Tang has the time to participate in the recording of our show."

Hearing this, Tang Guorong felt a little better, then became sarcastic: "But I can't compare to Director Song. He makes one blockbuster after another. It's really unexpected that Director Song has time to participate in variety shows."

“Indeed, you can’t compare to me, otherwise you would have been filming a long time ago and wouldn’t have needed to go for further studies,” Song Hao replied calmly.

Upon hearing this, Tang Guorong was so angry that his beard stood on end.

He gritted his teeth, but didn't say much.

After all, it was his own fault for being so sharp-tongued, and he was in the wrong.

[When we're recording the show, I'll make you suffer!]

Tang Guorong had even planned to stir things up in front of Director Zhang first, and then work with other directors to embarrass him during the recording of the show!

at the same time.

Hunan TV also released a promotional poster for "Directors, Please Speak".

Film is an incredible and wondrous journey for viewers to any world, a magnificent dreamscape crafted with the unrestrained passion and effort of filmmakers. Here, we witness fresh creations in cinema, and more importantly, a clash of talents between directors. Welcome to #DirectorsSpeak#, 3, 2, 1, Action!

[#DirectorsPleaseSpeakOfficialAnnouncement# The entire directing team—@ZhangChengmou, @ChenKai, @TangGuorong, and @SongHao—is present. How will their original works be best presented? A passionate journey awaits! Let's look forward to it together!]

This Weibo post was published.

This immediately sparked heated discussions among many people.

Netizens were completely taken aback. Hunan TV either doesn't make any moves at all, or when they do, they actually hired a top-tier director!

"My goodness, even Zhang Yimou is on variety shows?"

"As far as I know, he's never been on a variety show, has he?"

"Yeah, I don't know why, but suddenly I started appearing on variety shows."

"I guess they want to set an example for other directors in the industry."

"Director Chen Kai is going too! I'm really looking forward to seeing them both."

"Is Tang Guorong the director of 'Freedom of Love'? That film was pretty good."

Among these comments were quite a few about Song Hao.

"My God, Director Song! Isn't that the director of 'All for the Winner' and 'The Flowers of War'?"

"His poster is so cool! I didn't know directors could be this handsome."

"His previous films weren't very good, but his two most recent ones are quite good."

You know, just four months ago, who would have put a third-rate director on the same level as Director Zhang?

Immediately, comments flooded the internet.

It quickly became a trending topic.

Song Hao, Tang Guorong, and others also came to the TV station.

Led by Liu Yiquan, they arrived at the recording studio.

The show's director, Wu Tong, was already waiting.

Upon seeing Tang Guorong and Song Hao, he immediately stepped forward and said, "Welcome, Director Tang and Director Song."

Tang Guorong simply nodded slightly without saying a word.

Song Hao then reached out and shook hands with Wu Tong, explaining, "Sorry, the flight was a little late."

"It's alright, it's alright, we have plenty of time. This way, please."

With that, Wu Tong led them to the lounge.

Director Zhang and Director Chen were already waiting there.

As soon as Tang Guorong entered, he saw the two directors and immediately beamed with joy: "Director Zhang, Director Chen, hello."

Seeing this, Chen Kai whispered in Director Zhang's ear, "My junior from the Central Academy of Drama also graduated."

Director Zhang nodded after hearing this, and said with concern, "You must have had a hard journey."

"It's not hard work." Tang Guorong sat next to them, happy: "I feel really honored to be able to record a program with such legendary directors. I also hope to learn some useful knowledge and experience from Director Zhang and Director Chen for my future directing."

Although Director Zhang has heard these kinds of things far too often.

But that doesn't mean he doesn't like to hear it.

Chen Kai smiled and asked, "Xiao Tang, have you been filming any movies lately?"

"I've been studying recently, and the program invited me to be a guest. I was originally thinking of focusing on my studies and not participating in the program, but after hearing that you two are here, I had to come and learn from you." Tang Guorong first boasted a bit, and then praised the two of them even more.

Upon hearing this, Song Hao, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but feel admiration.

When it comes to flattery, this guy is absolutely top-notch!

Seeing that Tang Guorong was very outgoing and proactive, Wu Tong, the director of the program, also took Song Hao to introduce him: "Director Zhang, Director Chen, this is Director Song Hao. Everyone can get to know each other first."

Chen Kai pretended to be stunned for a moment, then realized: "I remember now, Director Song's recent film 'The Flowers of War' has been a box office hit."

"No, no, it just happened to be a subject that everyone likes," Song Hao said modestly. "I still need to learn more from the two seniors."

Director Zhang then spoke up: "Once is a coincidence, but twice is not. Director Song's last film, 'All or Nothing,' completely outshone my film, 'The Lonely City.' Based on your current fame, you are currently the most famous director here."

Upon hearing this, Song Hao knew that this old fox was trying to flatter him to his death.

First elevate yourself, then slam yourself down hard.

I have to say, these pretentious artsy types are such damn pretentious people!
