Huayu: Are you even sitting up straight? You're going to be the director?

Chapter 82 I said I kill without blinking an eye, and you ask me if my eyes are dry?
After the freshman ceremony, Cao Zhong went to find Jing Tian.

Seeing Cao Zhong walking towards them, Han Qingzi was completely rooted to the spot.

Shuangzi suddenly became a little nervous and tugged at Han Qingzi's sleeve: "You just called Director Cao manic, and I feel like it was directed at you."

Han Qingzi was on the verge of tears, her mind blank: "He's on stage, how could he possibly hear me?"

Lu Shan stared intently at Cao Zhong, saying, "I couldn't see clearly from up there, but Director Cao is so handsome, he's practically glowing."

Only Jing Tian realized what was happening, and his heart began to pound violently.

"Are those cameras that are about to shoot me finally coming?"

As Cao Zhong approached, besides Jing Tian, ​​he recognized one of the people beside her, Shuangzi.

"Hello."

After greeting everyone, Cao Zhong reached out and called out to Jing Tian.

"Jing Tian, ​​come with me."

Upon hearing this, the other three girls in her dorm immediately turned their gazes to Jing Tian, ​​their eyes burning with intense interest.

Han Qingzi went straight to the point and asked, "Sweetie, you actually know Director Cao?"

All three of them were shocked.

Behind them, Zhang Ruoyun and Tan Songyun were also very shocked. There were talented people in the undergraduate class of the performing arts department!

Shuangzi then looked at Cao Zhong and took the initiative to greet him: "Hello Director Cao, I'm Tiantian's roommate, my name is Shuangzi."

Her gaze hinted at a desire to get closer.

"Hello, hello."

Seeing Shuangzi's gaze, Cao Zhong was so frightened that he quickly left, afraid of getting involved with this scary guy.

Shuangzi is quite remarkable. She managed to turn several boyfriends into enemies, forced Zhang Han to eat beef noodles, had Hu Yanbin write a song for her, and had Zhang Heng sue her for years before finally running away abroad to become someone's mistress. Her abilities are not to be underestimated.

This is a purebred dangerous element.

Stay away from it completely, and never get involved.

Cao Zhong greeted everyone politely and then took Jing Tian away, leaving behind an endless uproar.

Many people stared in disbelief as the two walked away.

"Could Director Cao be having an affair with Jing Tian?"

"Or is it that Jing Tian was chosen by Director Cao as an actor?"

"Sweetie's mouth is so tight, her lips are so sealed."

"My roommate is so awesome, doesn't that mean we can get in touch too?" Shuangzi was eager to try, her eyes filled with ambition.

In any case, several people were so envious that they were practically spitting out plasmolysis.

……

"Senior, what do you want from me?"

Jing Tian tilted his head and looked at Cao Zhong with a curious expression.

Her face was as white as collagen, pinkish-white and translucent, smooth and delicate, incredibly bright, radiating youthful beauty.

Cao Zhong looked over and couldn't help but glance at it a few more times.

Although Jing Tian is not very old, he does have a very dignified appearance.

This kind of grandeur is different from Fan Bingbing's charm; it's more of a stunning beauty.

"Let's go together to apply for the Olympics."

Cao Zhongyan succinctly stated, "Regarding the movie whose script I sold you, I originally wanted to find you a good director, but after thinking about it carefully, I decided it would be better for me to produce it myself and let Shen Ao take the lead. No one knows better than me how this movie should be made; after all, I am the screenwriter."

Upon hearing this, Jing Tian was quite excited. Having Cao Zhong as the producer of her starring film was a huge boost to her career. "Nanjing Photo Studio" was still showing in theaters, and 300 million yuan was practically guaranteed; the only question was where the box office would go.

Moreover, with the official characterization and propaganda, she herself knew that some people within the system had already started buying tickets, just for the purpose of ideological and moral construction.

Jing Tian was well aware that at this point, the film had essentially reached the record for the highest-grossing domestic film.

It might even be able to rival that legendary overseas box office record.

The main reason is that Cao Zhong chose the right time and was very good at publicity.

"Thank you, thank you, senior brother." Jing Tian was so excited that he stammered, "I really didn't expect you to personally supervise the production."

Cao Zhong said, "No need to thank me. You gave me money back then, which saved me from an urgent crisis. Now I'm helping you make a movie, which is only right and proper."

Jing Tian smiled brightly.

She resolutely sided with Cao Zhong back then, and now it seems she really made a huge profit.

"I'm such a genius at investing!"

Walking slowly through the campus towards the direction of the Faculty Building, Jing Tian suddenly looked up and saw a bright red banner hanging between two trees.

[Warmest congratulations to Cao Zhong, a student from our school's Performing Arts Department, for surpassing 200 million yuan in box office revenue, making him the second director in China to achieve this milestone!]

[Warmest congratulations to Cao Zhong, a student from our School of Performing Arts, for joining the "100 Million Yuan Club," becoming the third director at Beijing Film Academy to achieve this milestone, following Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige!]

[Warmest congratulations to our students for writing and directing "Nanjing Photo Studio," which has been officially designated as a mainstream commercial film, pioneering a new genre in Chinese commercial cinema!]

Jing Tian was somewhat excited when he saw the banners.

"My senior is amazing. The movie hasn't even finished its run yet, and it's already breaking domestic box office records one after another. It's even been officially signed and stamped. It's a revolutionary event."

Upon seeing the banner, Jing Tian was genuinely impressed by Cao Zhong's praise and immediately recalled the official statement.

For this one revolutionary event, Cao Zhongzhen made his mark on film history.

"It's all just luck." Cao Zhong waved his hand and suddenly said, "By the way, I'm also planning to have you act in my second movie. I promised to sell you the script and give you the lead role in a new movie. I've already decided what this movie will be about, so get ready. After this movie about the Olympic bid is over, you'll need to join my movie crew as soon as possible. Of course, I'll make some preparations beforehand."

This news was a huge surprise to Jing Tian, ​​and she was momentarily speechless.

"Me, two?"

“Yes.” Cao Zhong nodded. “But the investment for the second part will be relatively large, but it’s still manageable. And for you, it’s mostly a natural performance, so don’t feel too much pressure. I’ll give you the script after I’ve finished refining it.”

Jing Tian's breathing became heavy; he was almost moved to tears.

“My senior brother is so good to me, but you don’t need to worry about the investment at all,” Jing Tian said. “No matter how big the investment is, Uncle Lu can afford it. I have plenty of money.”

Cao Zhong: ...

Although he already knew this girl was rich, he was still somewhat shocked when Jing Tian said it.

“Oh, right, senior brother.” Jing Tian suddenly remembered what Lu Zheng had told her before, “Uncle Lu said that your previous actions will definitely offend a lot of people. If you need help, we can help you too. Don’t forget about us.”

Cao Zhong nodded and smiled.

"Don't worry too much. Wasn't I amazing enough at your opening ceremony today? I was absolutely dominant, from Lu Chuan to Jia Zhangke, and even included many students from the Beijing Film Academy. Junior sister, I'm ruthless when it comes to killing."

Cao Zhong pretended to be ruthless.

Jing Tian felt that Cao Zhong was putting on a brave face. The road administration had told him before that Cao Zhong would definitely face great obstacles in the future.

She also witnessed firsthand how those shameless self-proclaimed intellectuals online, such as Jia Zhangke, Su Mu, and Lu Chuan, have successively fallen from grace, and there are still many people online who oppose Cao Zhong's views.

Now that Cao Zhong is still talking to her with a smile, Jing Tian feels a little sorry for him.

She looked up and said earnestly and cautiously, "Won't your eyes get dry from killing people for so long? Senior brother? Even if you kill without blinking, you should still take care of yourself."

Cao Zhong couldn't tell for a moment whether she felt sorry for her brother.
