Veteran Hong Kong stars reorganize the Chinese entertainment industry.

Zhao Dekai, a burly man, had his rough edges smoothed out by Liu Zhongze.

From the moment he met Liu Zhongze, he, a professional director specializing in horror, was forced into becoming a niche director who only dealt with horror and borderline horror, almost losing his job in the process.

In this situation, the ghost in the original script ran away, so in desperation, he asked Chen Yuyi to find him a cheap and easy-to-use actor.

Unexpectedly, after all the twists and turns, it all came down to Liu Zhongze in the end.

There are very few actors willing to showcase their acting skills in horror movies. Stephen Chow also made a horror movie, but that movie was more absurd and comedic, not the most terrifying kind.

Many Chinese horror movies can no longer be made. In the end, we can only watch Western gore films to replace this kind of horror that comes from the dead of night.

Their films are not only not scary, but the soulless sound effects and bloody plots make them as boring as playing house.

"Making horror movies has been my dream since I was a child. Friends who know me should know that I've been working in this field for a long time..."

Zhao Dekai had only spoken halfway when a familiar voice came through the earpiece again.

"Um... Director Zhao, could you interrupt for a moment? Could the person next to you say a few words?"

Zhao Dekai was taken aback at first, then put his hand on Liu Zhongze's shoulder with a relieved expression and said, "Speaking of which, the box office performance this time is all thanks to this young man. He is only in his twenties, but he has master-level acting skills. His name is Liu Zhongze. Let him tell you about him."

Liu Zhongze was suddenly pushed forward, and his expression froze.

His gaze unconsciously fell on Lin Youyu, and he only came to his senses after realizing that Lin Youyu and Tian Xiwei were also looking at him.

"Director Zhao Dekai is exaggerating. The biggest contributor to this film is actually himself. He has worked in the industry for many years and can accurately control the rhythm of horror films."

Zhao Dekai gave him a grateful look. Although he didn't know why the director on set asked him to give up his chance to Liu Zhongze, he thought that it was no big deal to do Liu Zhongze a favor given their friendship.

"As for me, I just did what an actor should do. I don't like fighting for top billing, or competing for traffic and marketing." When he said this, Liu Zhongze looked at Tian Xiwei and Lin Youyu without any hesitation, almost as if he was going to name them.

A series of cameras precisely captured this information and pointed them at Tian Xiwei and Lin Youyu.

Lin Youyu is still too young. He awkwardly laughed and shook his head in front of the camera, as if trying to distance himself from these words.

Tian Xiwei, on the other hand, was much calmer. It seemed that she had been subjected to a lot of sarcastic remarks and had become numb to it.

Her expression was calm, as if nothing had happened. Instead, she smiled sweetly at the stage, seemingly listening to Liu Zhongze tell someone else's story.

Liu Zhongze ultimately did not name names, because this incident involved more than just these two people behind the scenes; there were others involved as well. He needed to focus the theme of the awards ceremony on the films themselves.

"The film 'The Scholar' is not just about horror and thriller; it tells a true tragic story. Without the real-life figure of the scholar, we wouldn't have been able to make this film. Please pay more attention to the film itself and the real-life figure. Thank you."

After Liu Zhongze finished speaking, he was about to leave his seat to let the host continue his speech or Zhao Dekai finish speaking, but before he could take two steps back, he was pulled back by the host, Jesse.

"Mr. Liu, I would like to ask you to tell everyone how you managed to create such a grotesque and terrifying performance."

Seeing this, Liu Zhongze picked up the microphone again and said, "Well... this way of walking wasn't something I came up with myself, but rather it's based on the real experiences of the person on the film. You can watch the movie about the scholar's life; he was a very pitiful person. After being framed, his heart was filled with hatred. But once hatred is sown, how can it end so easily?"

"His anger lingered in a deserted village in Maolin City, and it never dissipated. Almost no one dared to go out at night and slept until dawn."

"But terror itself is not what we want to express; what we want to express more is the spirit of the scholar."

"After a brief period of anger and hatred, he calmed down and began to treat the world in a different way. I also hope that we can look at the world from different perspectives instead of always focusing on fame and fortune."

Liu Zhongze had wanted to prove something to Xiucai for a long time. Although Xiucai had been dead for a long time, he was still a very good person.

A legend circulates in the village, which matches the remains of the scholar when they are found.

Perhaps, the scholar was no longer just a simple evil spirit, but an unsung guardian deity of the village, though no one knew this.

Back in Hong Kong, Liu Zhongze followed Lin Zhengzhi without any systematic education, and he heard a lot of things that science couldn't explain.

Humans always hope to have something to remember them by. Perhaps after a person disappears, they will turn into some kind of substance in some place to protect something.

According to Lin Zhengzhi's views, Liu Zhongze respected and revered these matters, preferring to believe they existed rather than denying them.

Just as Liu Zhongze was about to hand the microphone to Zhao Dekai, the host, Jesse, stopped him again and asked, "So, what are your personal career development plans and what types of roles would you like to try?"

"I'm not picky about roles; as long as it's a good script, you can come to me."

This time, Liu Zhongze didn't give Jesse a chance to ask questions and directly handed the microphone to Zhao Dekai.

It's clearly Brother Zhao's award, so why does he keep picking on me?

Zhao Dekai smiled and picked up the microphone. As soon as his mouth touched the microphone, he heard exclamations from a group of prominent Asian figures.

"Hiss...it's him!"

"Damn it... How come Asia Films has such a big shot overseeing it?"

"Damn it! If you'd told me this person was here, I would have gone backstage to pay him a visit!"

"Is he planning to cooperate with people from our country, India?"

...

Even Jenny Lin, who had been hiding behind the scenes, couldn't help but come out and look at the unexpected person appearing on the stage.

"Isn't he supposed to be working in Hollywood? What's he doing at the Asian film event? Is he starting to get interested in the Asian market?"

Jenny Lin's mind raced. If this man wanted to use his international fame to bridge the gap between China and the world and grab both pieces of the pie, then even if her husband and Wang Han joined forces, they wouldn't be able to stop him!

Zhao Dekai turned his head following the surprised gazes of the crowd and saw a man whose appearance was no different from that of a Chinese person walking over silently. He was not good-looking, his skin was somewhat dark, and even his hair looked messy, but he still made everyone present stare wide-eyed.

"Wen Ziren?"
