I am a historical film director in the entertainment industry.

Chapter 116 The Script Brought by Da Tiantian?

"Wait, Cheng, something doesn't seem right!"

Scarlett, who was standing behind Cheng Sheng, suddenly spoke.

"What's wrong?" Cheng Sheng asked in surprise.

“I’ve watched a lot of ancient Chinese movies. Don’t they always kneel and bow to the emperor when they go to court? And shout ‘Long live the emperor! Long live the emperor!’ Why don’t we kneel and shout ‘Long live the emperor’ here?” Scarlett asked, puzzled.

Cheng Sheng smiled and recounted the court etiquette of various dynasties.

"I see. I thought every dynasty in China was like in the TV series." Scarlett suddenly realized.

Cheng Sheng's lips twitched a few times. This was all because there were too many Qing Dynasty dramas, and also because those directors didn't know anything about history and still copied the Qing Dynasty model when filming other dynasties.

"Wow, Cheng, these actors are amazing! Their acting is so realistic. Are they all top-notch artists you invited?"

Scarlett said excitedly as she watched the performers on camera.

"They are not top-tier celebrities, but they are all veteran artists whose acting skills are even better than today's top-tier celebrities."

Cheng Sheng said.

The actress who plays Emperor Ling of Han, Liu Hong, is Jin Yuru. She has also played Emperor Ling of Han in the CCTV version, so she plays this role with ease.

The other ministers who attended court were all played by very talented veteran actors.

Of course, the fact that everyone was able to act so realistically is largely thanks to Cheng Shengkai's immersive experience.

"Oh my god, I feel like if I act opposite them, I'll definitely be overshadowed. Won't I embarrass myself?"

Scarlett said somewhat dejectedly.

“Scarlett, look me in the eyes.”

It seems Scarlett has been discouraged. We can't let her lose confidence, otherwise it won't be good for her future development, Cheng Sheng said, looking directly at her.

Scarlett looked at Cheng Sheng and said, "And then? Is there some surprise waiting for me?"

“No surprises, but let me tell you, you are the best actress I have ever seen, bar none,” Cheng Sheng said firmly.

If it weren't for the special treatment he gave Zeng Li and others, Scarlett Johansson's acting skills would indeed be the best actress he had ever seen.

"Really! Even Sister Li isn't as good as me, is she?"

Upon hearing this, Scarlett's lips curled up slightly, revealing a charming smile.

"Of course, you are the best."

"Thank you, you've helped me regain my confidence." Scarlett lifted her head and puffed out her chest, radiating a different kind of charm once again.

After saying that, he leaned down and kissed Cheng Sheng on the cheek.

"This is a reward."

Dig!

Cheng Sheng was stunned; it was the first time he had ever been kissed by a woman.

The people around were stunned.

What they saw.

Scarlett kissed Director Cheng.

Everyone couldn't help but recall the few days Scarlett and Cheng Sheng spent alone together in Venice.

Zeng Li frowned, feeling a pang of sadness in her heart.

It seems that her adopted younger sister has feelings for Cheng Sheng.

Seeing the strange looks he was getting, Cheng Sheng instantly realized that everyone had misunderstood his relationship with Scarlett.

But this fact is difficult to explain, because the more you explain it, the less clear it becomes.

Fortunately, the filming was a closed-off process, and no reporters captured this scene; otherwise, who knows what kind of scandals might have arisen.

"Ahem! Changchang, stop staring at us, it's your turn to step up in the next shot."

Cheng Sheng coughed twice to divert everyone's attention.

"Hey, what are you all doing?"

Just then, Da Tiantian walked in from outside, followed by several bodyguards carrying large bags. Seeing the strange expressions on everyone's faces, they couldn't help but ask curiously, "What are you doing? Filming! Didn't you have no scenes today? Why are you here?"

Cheng Sheng said.

"Hehe, I came to visit the set and I'm treating everyone to something to eat."

Upon hearing Cheng Sheng's words, Da Tian Tian instantly forgot the awkward atmosphere and greeted him with a smile.

"Let's wait until this shot is finished."

Cheng Sheng said.

Da Tiantian was also sensible; she walked over to Cheng Sheng's side and quietly watched everyone act.

For a while.

Liu Meng finished filming the first scene.

I watched the replay several times.

It went very smoothly, the actors performed very well, and we didn't need to film any scenes.

Liu Meng clapped his hands, signaling everyone to take a break before continuing to film the second scene.

Da Tian Tian also warmly invited everyone to come and eat.

Seeing Da Tian Tian getting along so well with the crew, Cheng Sheng nodded secretly.

Despite being born into a wealthy family, Jing Tian doesn't have any princess syndrome. She's gentle, hardworking, and a truly rare and excellent actress.

After eating the food that Da Tian Tian bought, everyone rested for another half hour before filming resumed immediately.

Da Tiantian didn't disturb the filming. Instead, she returned to Cheng Sheng's side and sat in the chair brought by his assistant.

"Director Cheng, I recently received a very good script, and I plan to invest in it myself and star in it."

"Da Tian Tian suddenly said."

Cheng Sheng, who was staring at the film set, was taken aback.

Where does her confidence come from?!

Do you really think that being an investor and a lead actor is so easy?
There seems to be no record of Jing Tian having any investments or starring roles in the future...

and many more.

It seems that Jing Tian did invest in a movie in the early stages, and she was also the female lead.

No way!
That will be the worst movie for Jing Tian in the future.

"Oh! What movie is it that you think so highly of?" Cheng Sheng asked, seemingly unintentionally.

“I had a lot of trouble finding a Hong Kong screenwriter to write ‘Anaconda’,” Da Tian Tian said.

Damn it, it really is this movie.

Cheng Sheng's lips twitched slightly.

Although the development of Da Tian Tian in this timeline has changed somewhat due to her own relationship.

But some things are destined to happen; they won't suddenly disappear because of you.

For example, Lu Zheng founded Starlight Brilliant Film and Television Company, which is "a company dedicated to serving Da Tian Tian". The entire company only has Da Tian Tian as its artist.

Without my own influence, the terrible movie "Anaconda" would not have appeared for more than a year.

Now, because of my own situation, many things have appeared ahead of schedule.

Although Jing Tian played the role of Fan Yuan in "The Yellow Turban Rebellion", Lu Zheng clearly felt it was not enough, so he found a Hong Kong screenwriter to write a movie "Anaconda" specially made for her.

The title is an attractive gimmick, and you can guess from the name that it is a domestic horror movie, which is very much in line with the script written by a Hong Kong screenwriter.

However, this movie was later hailed as Jing Tian's worst film, with its rough production, exaggerated plot, and exaggerated performances.

It's truly unbelievable that such a terrible film could be made. This must be a special talent of the director. The only redeeming quality is Jing Tian's good looks.

This is also the lowest-rated film among all of Jing Tian's film and television works: 2.6 points!!!
Although "Anaconda" is marketed with "Anaconda" as its selling point, the actual plot revolves around "zombies," making it a film that "uses snakes as bait to sell ghosts."

After the failure of this movie, Da Tian Tian was admitted to the Beijing Film Academy for further studies.
