I am a historical film director in the entertainment industry.

"Who's Youth Isn't Confused" grossed 1.79 million yuan. Yao Tingting, who has lived through that age, presented her unique experiences and insights into youthful confusion and the wonder of love in a prose-like style. The film also broke away from the clichéd plots of youth romance films such as "car accidents" and "abortions", making it relatively fresh and unique.

Compared to male directors, female directors have a natural advantage in making romance films: a sensitivity to emotions and a pursuit of romance.

"Men may give up love for their beliefs, but for women, their belief is love."

Many female directors focus on romantic themes, using poetic landscapes and scenery as imagery, and taking love as a breakthrough point to express delicate emotions in their films.

Female directors all have their own distinct ways of expressing the delicate nuances of love.

"Thank you, boss."

Yang Ting and Sun Fei said happily.

After discussing next year's film and television projects, Cheng Sheng was about to announce the end of the meeting when Liu Meng stood up and said, "I have one more thing to say."

"What is it?" Cheng Sheng asked, puzzled.

"I've written a novel that I plan to adapt into a TV series," Liu Meng said.

"What kind of novel did you write?" Cheng Sheng was slightly taken aback, but quickly realized what he meant and asked.

He almost forgot that Liu Mengke is not only a director, but also a novelist.

“The Assassin,” Liu Meng said.

"assassin"!
Judging from the title, one might think it's a story about ancient assassins, but Cheng Sheng knows it's not; it's a military-themed novel.

Moreover, Cheng Sheng from another world had also watched the TV series adapted from this novel, and it was a very good TV series.

The TV series adapted from "The Assassin" is called "Sniper's Life and Death Line".

The film tells the story of two outstanding snipers who grew up in the military, but due to various realistic reasons such as status, rank, and even emotions, the two former brothers eventually became enemies.

Liu Meng is a tough guy, and as expected of a director of military-themed films, he used real guns and live ammunition and combat equipment for all the props in order to make this TV series well.

These pose a significant challenge to the actors' physical strength and professional skills.

An actor could be injured or even killed if he is not careful.

It's clear how strong the actors who starred in this TV series must be mentally.

You reap what you sow.

On its first day of airing, "Sniper: Life and Death Line" achieved a peak single-episode rating of 7.29 and a market share of 16.79%. On August 26, the show's average rating steadily increased to 8.37%. On August 27, the show's market share reached 20.42%, with a peak single-episode rating of 10.18%.

Unlike typical police films, this movie focuses on snipers, showcasing the previously mysterious lives of snipers to the audience.

The actor plays the sharpshooter "Vulture" in the film. Not only does "Vulture's" coldness and handsomeness capture the audience's hearts, but his love with "Lily" also reveals the tenderness of this tough guy.

"From comrade-in-arms to enemy, it only takes the time it takes to fire a single bullet."

The romantic storyline isn't the biggest selling point of the drama. Director and screenwriter Liu Meng stated that the most captivating aspect of the series is its structure, which interweaves present-day and past-day events to showcase the sniper's love, hate, and complex emotions.

"The sniper is a highlight. Through this series, viewers can witness the complete firearms and equipment used by snipers in real life and their actual combat conditions. By using their little-known stories, the series unveils the mysterious veil that has always surrounded snipers in special forces."

This drama is the first domestic military-themed work to positively reflect the lives of special forces soldiers and armed police snipers, and it is also Liu Meng's first film and television work directed by himself.

Since its debut on television, the show has sparked heated discussions among netizens and received rave reviews from audiences. They unanimously agree that the plot is full of twists and turns, suspense, and combines various commercial and artistic elements, making it a rare and excellent drama with many highlights. In particular, some of the action scenes are said to surpass those of Hong Kong's modern action films.

The success of "Sniper's Life and Death Line" led Liu Meng to film several more military-themed films and television series.

In particular, he adapted his first novel into a TV series, which made the TV series "I Am a Special Forces Soldier" a classic work in the military genre.

Liu Meng's military-themed novels include "The Last Bullet Is for Me", "Wolf Fang", and "Ice Is Sleeping Water".

"The Last Bullet Is for Me" is one of Liu Meng's representative works. It depicts the life and battles of special forces soldiers with realistic and delicate writing, and is deeply loved by readers.

"Wolf Fang": The novel tells the story of the Wolf Fang Commando, a special forces unit of the Chinese Army. The plot is tense and exciting, and the characters are vivid.

"Ice is Sleeping Water": This novel, based on the theme of national security agents, showcases the bravery, fearlessness, loyalty, and dedication of national security soldiers.

The novel "The Last Bullet Is for Me" was adapted into the TV series "I Am a Special Forces Soldier".

It tells the story of the brutal, tragic, and iron-willed training and life of the Lone Wolf Commando Team, a special forces unit of the Chinese People's Liberation Army, and showcases their unwavering belief in dedicating themselves to their mission.

In another world, if someone asked which military-themed TV series is the best and most classic,

Many people will immediately think of "I Am a Special Forces Soldier".

If we're talking about a work that opened the door to military-themed works, it would naturally be "Soldiers Sortie" starring Wang Baobao.

In the drama, he played Xu Sanduo, a man from the countryside, who won the hearts of many viewers with his honest and simple character.

Thanks to this work, Wang Baobao has received many high-quality offers.

It was precisely because of the popularity of this work that many directors discovered this hidden gem, and a large number of military-themed works emerged at once.

However, most of the works received lukewarm responses, and some even had very poor reputations. Only Liu Meng's "I Am a Special Forces Soldier" was well-received by the audience and even sparked a special forces craze.

At the same time, Gu Zixin quickly rose to fame with his role as Xiao Zhuang and received many offers. Later, his works such as "Northwest Wolf in the Flames of War" and "I Want to Be a Flight Attendant" also received high praise.

Unfortunately, the second installment, "I Am a Special Forces Soldier: Sharp Blade," which capitalized on the popularity of the first season, failed to replicate the ratings success of its predecessor and was quickly labeled a terrible show by viewers.

Wu Jing's portrayal of the male lead, He Chenguang, was not as outstanding as Xiao Zhuang's in the previous installment.

However, this performance inspired Wu Jing to start her own film production, which led to the movie "Wolf Warrior" that the public sees today.

After the huge success of "I Am a Special Forces Soldier 1," many more installments were made, but none surpassed the first one. (End of Chapter)
