Veteran Hong Kong stars reorganize the Chinese entertainment industry.

Liu Zhongze remained silent, watching the girl on the screen. He didn't know any sweet words; he just listened quietly to her rambling.

As Lin Luoying spoke, she told Liu Zhongze about the time she took Liu Yiyi out to play.

Without Liu Zhongze managing their account together, Lin Luoying could only edit the previous footage and post it on the Zhongying account every day, and then there was nothing else to do.

Thanks to Liu Zhongze's outstanding short drama, Lin Luoying has gained a lot of attention, but many of the viewers are older women who criticize Liu Zhongze and Lin Luoying when they see their affectionate scenes. As a result, Lin Luoying has become too lazy to read the comments lately.

In this situation, only Liu Zhongze's three loyal fans would confront those older women head-on and recount Lin Luoying's merits.

"A few days ago was the weekend, and I took Yiyi to the amusement park. The girl refused to go no matter what, saying that her family didn't have any money and she didn't want to trouble her sister-in-law. But the more I looked at her, the more I liked her, so I dragged her to play."

Lin Luoying recounted the details of her time with Liu Yiyi, but there was nothing particularly noteworthy about it.

"Do you know what Liu Yiyi said to me before we parted ways?"

"What did you say?" Liu Zhongze didn't try to fool Lin Luoying; he listened to everything before asking.

Lin Luoying chuckled and said, word by word, "My brother is such a terrible person, how did he find such a good match as my sister-in-law? Humph, I'll marry her too someday."

Liu Zhongze's face darkened. Whether it was Liu Zhongze from 2025 or Liu Zhongze from the 80s, he actually had a good impression of this unlucky girl.

This is why Liu Zhongze showed concern for the girl when they first met.

It can be said that the people around Liu Zhongze are all good people in themselves, but they care about Liu Zhongze too much, which makes him not understand how to give and take responsibility. He is like a spoiled child. Once he does something out of line, these people have to clean up his mess.

"Haha... I took a screenshot. You weren't as embarrassed as you are now when you heard Yiyi say things like this before. Most of the time you would just laugh it off."

Lin Luoying encouraged Liu Zhongze, saying, "Very good, son, you're finally acting like a big brother. Now I can finally get a good night's sleep."

"Aren't you resting yet?"

"Yeah, I can't sleep without you by my side."

When Liu Zhongze didn't know how to respond, Lin Luoying asked him where he was, saying she wanted to visit him on set.

After answering truthfully, Liu Zhongze added, "We might go to Haicheng for filming later, but I don't know when we'll go, and the plot hasn't been finalized yet."

"Why are you being so unreliable?" Lin Luoying yawned, completely different from how she was during the video call. "It's okay, if you guys leave first, I'll just wander around Hengdian. I've never been to Hengdian before..."

The girl put her phone on her pillow and started snoring, not wanting to hang up until she fell asleep.

Liu Zhongze pressed the hang-up button. He sighed, still unsure how to deal with the relationship. He touched his breakfast and found it was cold.

After finishing his meal and returning to the hotel, Liu Zhongze found several people sitting in his room, making it even more lively than the night before.

When He Qian saw Liu Zhongze enter, she didn't introduce the newcomers, but simply said, "Now that today's main actors are here, let's get going."

This group of people brushed past Liu Zhongze; He Qian's old classmates were among them, along with a few new faces.

He Qian approached Liu Zhongze and said, "Those are all new staff members assisting with today's filming. I've already sent someone to buy breakfast. Have you had any? I'll get you some too."

"No need, I just finished eating."

He Qian nodded: "Okay, then we'll start your scenes right away. Are you familiar with the plot and lines? Do you need to rehearse with Xiaoming?"

He Qian valued Liu Zhongze highly and discussed the filming process with him throughout the trip. He Qian would make any adjustments that needed to be made, and she would generally comply with any suggestions made by Liu Zhongze.

However, Liu Zhongze doesn't like to give unsolicited advice; he's still a novice when it comes to tokusatsu (special effects) films.

This scene was filmed in Hengdian. It wasn't originally in the script, but the five old classmates decided to add it after they had more money. It helps to show the more complex character of Gaia.

When they entered the filming location, a new staff member had already bought breakfast for them and placed it near each person's workstation.

"Everyone is eating and filming at the same time. Today is just a rehearsal, a preparation for the normal filming tomorrow."

"Okay, director."

"receive."

"I've arrived at my post, Sister He."

...

In less than a week, this originally low-budget tokusatsu drama has grown to have a crew comparable to Zhao Dekai's film crew.

Although it still takes time to get used to each other, the current staffing is far from being considered meager.

Zhang Xia walked up to Liu Zhongze, stared at his face for a while, and asked softly, "I thought you were quite good-looking when I saw you last time. I happen to have a cousin who's not married yet, and she's incredibly beautiful. Do you want your older sister Zhang to explain to you?"

Zhang Xia was unaware that her voice could be transmitted to the monitor through the microphone on Liu Zhongze's body. Suddenly, she heard her best friend He Qian's voice: "Xia, how come you have so many cousins? Didn't you explain one to Li Yun last time? I heard that Li Yun even dressed up specially and returned all the clothes when she came back, saying that she had been deceived by the photos."

"Hahahaha!" Wang Tao laughed heartily. He was dressed as the Dark Boss today and was also in the arena.

He waved to Liu Zhongze, gave a brief greeting, and then began to complain about Zhang Xia: "Old He, you're underestimating her. I heard your cousin is more manly than a man in real life. When Old Li told me, he almost cried. It's hilarious, haha..."

Zhang Xia glanced at Wang Tao, then shouted in He Qian's direction, "Why are you guys sabotaging me? What if this handsome young man likes my cousin's type? Aren't you just breaking up a good couple? Let me tell you..."

Liu Zhongze silently took a step back, distancing himself from Zhang Xia.

Zhang Xia said angrily, "It's all your fault. I guess my family's fine traditions will be hard to continue with my cousin's generation. I don't know why my cousin inherited my second uncle's baldness so early. I was even thinking of getting this handsome young man to improve my second uncle's genes."

Although it looks like they're arguing, this is actually how they chat; they're a bit loud, but they don't get angry with each other.

He Qian's voice came through the walkie-talkie. She smoothed things over, saying, "Alright, alright, Xia, hurry up and do Zhongze's makeup. We're ready to film."
