Chapter 54

I'm not from the *Dying to Survive* crew. It's lunchtime.

Lu Xuan looked at the soup in front of him and blinked.

"Did you make a mistake today?"

"Drink it or don't!"

Su Yao glared at him.

Then she picked up her own portion and started gulping it down.

Lu Xuan smiled slightly and didn't tease her anymore.

If Su Yao could still mix them up after he wrote labels, then she really didn't have the talent for cooking.

But obviously, Su Yao was a very smart woman.

Today's soup was fragrant and sweet!

In another corner, Li Hao held a boxed lunch and ate with Xu Zheng and a few others.

Seeing this scene, his expression was quite resentful.

We agreed to eat boxed lunches together, but you're secretly having extra meals, and even with a beauty by your side!

"Damn it! My food doesn't even taste good anymore!"

"Huh?"

Xu Zheng was confused when he heard this.

He took two big bites of his boxed lunch, eating with great relish.

"It tastes pretty good. I've never had such a good boxed lunch before."

Huang Chuanjun nodded and said with a smile, "Yeah, if it weren't for controlling my figure, I could eat three portions!"

Lu Xuan's crew's boxed lunches were a combination of meat and vegetables, and there was even chicken soup!

It was the best boxed lunch they had ever tasted in their careers.

Li Hao glanced at everyone and revealed a secret: "Of course. Director Lu specifically ordered it."

"The boxed lunches ordered by the logistics team are all of the highest standard."

He still remembered what Lu Xuan said.

If you want the horse to run, you have to feed it grass. How can the horse run if it doesn't eat grass?

Therefore, Lu Xuan valued logistics more than anyone else in the crew.

He even personally went to the restaurant and signed the order.

"No wonder it's so delicious!"

A scholar dies for his confidant.

Everyone looked at the boxed lunch in front of them, feeling particularly touched.

This meal was not only delicious, but now it also carried a heavy expectation.

"We must not let Director Lu down!"

Xu Zheng continued to gobble down his food.

He turned Lu Xuan's expectations, along with his appetite, into motivation!

The others also started eating.

They stopped chatting and began to conserve their energy, preparing to go all out for the next scene.

"..."

Li Hao was the last to finish eating.

After silently cleaning up, he glanced at Lu Xuan.

At this time, Lu Xuan had finished eating and was reading the script with a very serious expression.

At this moment, Li Hao was truly convinced by Lu Xuan from the bottom of his heart.

Since working together again, Lu Xuan seemed to have become a different person!

He had become more talented and capable!

Especially in terms of judging people, it was as if he had a cheat code!

Li Hao looked around.

Whether they were leading actors or supporting roles, everyone was consciously holding the script, looking at it silently.

Even during breaks, some people were practicing their lines with each other.

If someone had told Li Hao before that these people were once just extras, Li Hao would not have believed it.

If even extras had such awareness, then why worry about the prosperity of China's film and television industry?!

However, the truth was.

Most extras and even celebrities couldn't do this!

Makeup and slacking off were the current state of domestic actors.

Only actors who strictly demand themselves can be so disciplined under the director's leadership.

And being able to bring so many, arguably excellent actors together, Li Hao was willing to call Lu Xuan's ability to see people the strongest!

"I'm afraid even Grandpa doesn't have such vision."

A director looking for actors is like a Bole looking for a *qianlima* (a horse that can run a thousand *li* in a day, i.e. a rare talent).

*Qianlima* are common, but Boles are not.

Only a pair of ruthless eyes can pick out the most suitable one from many extras.

Now Lu Xuan, in all aspects, was worthy of being called an excellent director!

Li Hao was very glad that he had agreed to come out of retirement.

Otherwise, he might have missed the greatest opportunity to grow.

"Xuan'er! Work hard!"

"Leave the rest to me!"

Li Hao patted his pants and got up to leave the lounge.

Just like what the two of them said when they first started working together.

"You take care of the filming; I'll take care of the rest!"

Li Hao was Lu Xuan's most loyal backer.

The break time was over, and the moment Lu Xuan got up, everyone looked over.

"Let's continue."

"Okay!"

Morale reached its peak at this moment!

......

On the other side, the *Shanghai Fortress* crew.

This was a domestic science fiction film invested by Shenghua Entertainment!

It was publicly claimed that the investment was 150 million yuan!

From the leading role, the first-line young idol Cai Kunkun, to the supporting role, the fifth-tier actor Wang Zhaolin.

It could be said that the cast was extremely luxurious!

Several times more luxurious than the previous *The Love Story of Immortals and Demons*!

And Shenghua Entertainment had invited Guo Xiaosi, a well-known domestic director, to direct this film!

He had won the Best Director Award for romantic dramas at the Shanghai Film Festival twice.

This time, crossing over to make a mecha film was a great challenge for Guo Xiaosi.

But there was no way, Shenghua Entertainment gave too much.

"Director Guo, the actors are all here, can we start?"

Tang Qiansheng came to Guo Xiaosi with his hands behind his back and said with a frown.

The other party's attitude made Guo Xiaosi very dissatisfied.

Didn't he know that the director was the biggest in the crew?!

Calling him Xiaosi, was that something he could call him?!

But, who told him that this guy was the investor?

Guo Xiaosi rubbed his hands with a smile: "President Tang, the leading actor hasn't arrived yet."

"Cai Kunkun?"

Tang Qiansheng frowned even more.

The company had already made Tang Qiansheng very dissatisfied by asking him to personally supervise the crew.

In his opinion, he didn't need to come in person at all with his status.

But who told him that he had made a mistake before, so he had to accept this task.

And now that he was about to start filming, but the leading actor was still late, Tang Qiansheng couldn't control his temper.

"Then call him! How can we film if he doesn't come?"

He roared at Guo Xiaosi.

Spit flew five meters away, and the people around him quickly moved away.

But Guo Xiaosi was unlucky and could only block it with the script, but he was still sprayed in the face.

He forced a smile and said, "I already called, I already called. They said they're on their way, look, aren't they here!"

In the distance, a handsome man walked over with an umbrella, surrounded by people.

The people next to him were touching up his makeup as he walked.

The man was Cai Kunkun, the number one leading actor in *Shanghai Fortress*.

From a distance, Tang Qiansheng could feel a gust of cold wind.

Seeing that the person had arrived, he couldn't continue to lose his temper, and after leaving a few words, he went back to the car to cool off.

"Tell him, if he's late again next time, don't come!"

"Just an actor, does he really think he's a big deal?"

Guo Xiaosi could only nod: "Yes... yes..."

He was a little tearful, knowing that he shouldn't have taken this job.

Above him was the capital tycoon Shenghua Entertainment, and below him were first-line stars such as Cai Kunkun.

He couldn't afford to offend either side!

Either side could make him unable to survive in the director circle.

At this time, Guo Xiaosi remembered a certain line.

He slapped his thigh directly, his expression mournful.

"What a sin!!!"

Everyone: "......"
