After the release of the "Dark Knight" movie, the hype is still unabated. Not just Hollywood, even after three weeks of release, the whole world is constantly appreciating this fine film from Studio Rena and feeling very relieved.

For some parts of the world, three weeks is the best hype period for a movie, and the same is true for The Dark Knight.

"I can't believe that we finally ushered in the second billion at the box office today!" said Lei Lin with a big smile on her face.

"It's... Dedicated to everyone!!! "。

Nick shook the champagne bottle and opened it to make it smell good.

"How's it going, Ian?" a man walked toward Ian.

Ian immediately stood up, showed respect, and shook his hand.

He's Brad Krachfield. He is known as a star-maker. If to put it simply, he can be called the senior Ian in the industry. But he has much more experience and work in the industry than Ian.

He started out as an assistant to a very famous director, who had passed away two years earlier.

Still, the meetup hosted by Rayner Studios invited many industry insiders, especially Mason's friends, as Ian felt it would be a great help for him to expand his visibility in the industry.

"Mr. Brad Krachfield, it's a pleasure to have you here!" Ian shook hands with the man in a plain black suit. The Rolex watch in his hand says who he is.

If Ian guessed correctly, this man is a man who is notoriously flamboyant about his status and a man who threatens all the directors out there.

"Of course, how could I ignore an invitation to such a beautiful event? Brad's wrinkled face showed a wicked smile.

"Ah," Ian laughed at the thought of people discussing his activities.

"Ian, sit down. A drink wouldn't hurt to start tonight, would it?"

Over

the next few seconds, the two businessmen started talking about the party, their industry, and many other things.

"...... Yes, that's exactly why Martin was so famous in my studio back then. I'm glad that Reina's job went well for him, though. After all, I don't believe in coincidences. Brad said as he took a sip of his wine.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Scarlett and Raelyn muttering something as they watched the crowd.

Seeing Railyn wearing a tight red dress with matching red lipstick, Ian's stomach couldn't help but have a butterfly effect.

"So, Ian, I've always wanted to ask you something. Brad said and looked and turned around in his chair so he could see Ian's eyes.

"Really?" he asked, taking a sip of his own drink, looking away from the walking flesh in the distance.

"I had a new idea for cinema. An action movie with a hint of adventure. I......

Ian smiled at his request. He knew the meaning of this sentence, and he also knew what the person in front of him wanted to ask. If he's learned anything in the industry, it's that no director, actor, or even cleaner would come out to you to ask about the situation or talk about a party. They are always talking about business, talking in the dark.

"Ah, I guess I'll tell you when we work together. Mr. Brad, I know very well how talented you are and how many amazing pieces you have put out for the industry. Oh, not to mention, "The Sour Ending" is such a good movie--"

Brad immediately frowned at his words.

"Ahaha, no... No, Ian. I'm not asking you to direct this film with me, although the idea sounds promising. Having young people assist in directing is something new and exciting for me. Good idea, but no, I'm not going to ask you to work with me, not yet.

Ian was confused by his words. He placed the cup on the table and straightened his suit. As a conversation between men that lasted more than fifteen minutes, both of them had their own self-esteem to consume and confide. But at the moment, Ian's predictions and rejections were wrong. This allowed Ian to straighten his back and avoid embarrassment.

"What's that?" he asked rhetorically in an equal tone.

"I want you to play the main role. It's just a request, though!" Brad raised his hands in surrender.

Before he knew it, Ian's eyes were raised, and he listened with relish.

"That's...

"Listen, Ian. Brad said and stood up. Approaching him a few steps, he began to speak: "You're an amazing director. If there's anyone in the entire film industry who can convince me to star in my films, it's none. Not even a D-class actor. "You're good-looking, and I'm sure you can be a great actor with a little training, and

Ian nodded. "I'm guessing you've seen my interview, where I shouted to the world that one day I want to be in a movie, right?"

"Ahaha! That's right!" Brad laughed. "Yes, I did. I'm honored to be your director in your first film. You don't have to answer now, take your time. Brad put his hand on Ian's shoulder, gave him a gentle tat twice, and then turned and walked away.

It's like," Ian thought to himself, and drank it all.

————————————

"Hello everyone! It's a great night!" I want to grab everyone's attention before we decide to move on. So, as a director of a film, I want to say a few words to everyone once in a while!"

"Christian and Freddie were looking at me, and I remember how I started filming The Dark Knight, like yesterday. They have given me tremendous support and I would also like to thank Ian and Christian. Christian was the lead actor, but on several occasions he taught me to film, saying: 'Lei, let me handle this... And, action!'--". She laughed, and the actors laughed too.

After the laughter subsided, she took a deep breath. "Everyone is great! Cheers to this milestone achievement, and more!" everyone

applauded as she stepped off the podium with her drink.

"Thank you, Ms. Sawyer. There's a special request, and then Mr. Bell and Mr. Hawkins are invited to the stage!"

Reelin clapped her hands and walked over to Ian, who sat alone in the bar and watched her come triumphantly.

"Hey, you. He walked over and grabbed her lips the moment she walked over.

She blushed under his gaze.

"I didn't expect that. She whispered.

"You're shy now, huh?" she

didn't say anything, just smiled.

"I'm so proud of you," he said, hugging her.

"You've helped me make my dream come true, Ian. I will continue to support you and do everything I can to make the Lennar studio a success. Thank you. She whispered back.

"I have a little idea, should we give up the whole social activity and rest on our own tonight?" he said, turning her around at once. She screamed.

"Don't you have to meet people? I thought that's why this whole event is happening. "

I'd like to talk to three people. You see, the duo of Will and Gal Lincoln's studios, they! and Jeff and his wife. No problem, he's too focused on his failed films--" Ian coughed fakely. "I mean, success. Oh, look at Mr. Kim. The only one of the Big Six. Renault Armor. I've talked to him about it too.

"You're done tonight?" she asked, and he nodded.

In the distance, Freddie was talking to the crowd.

".... We're good brothers!" the crowd laughed. "Since these parts are circulating on social media, revealing the inside story of our crew to fans, we wanted to give you something. Are you ready?

"Ready!", "What is it?",

"Yes!"

The

crowd erupted in applause.

"Some tidbits. These were basically cut from the director's cut, but kept for special occasions like -- this -- please enjoy thank you!" Freddie said, bowed, and left, Christian Bale not far behind.

Raelyn and Ian paused for a moment to watch the film.

"I didn't know there wasn't any of these shots in the director's cut! Wow!" Ian said aloud, and everyone could hear it, making two or three people laugh.

"What the hell?" appears

on the screen of Christian Bale falling and laughing, laughing so hard that the cameraman shakes and laughs. He is dressed in a Batman outfit, and the scene looks scary and comical.

"While you're still in the midst of a frolicking mood, let's get down to business, Mr. Ian. Raireen said, their hands clasped together.

"Okay, Ms. Leylin!, let's go!"

————————————

other hand, things were moving fairly fast. The movie "John Wick" has made its own progression over time.

Before filming of The Dark Knight began, Ian had already done a lot of filming for the film with the team. However, the film still has almost half the time to finish shooting.

The entire crew, including the behind-the-scenes team, has high hopes for this film, hoping that everyone can take a good vacation after exhausting work.

"So, tell me, who's going to talk about the next scene? Don't worry, if everyone gets tired, remember we have an extra 25 days plan? We can take a day out of it, skip the next scene, and call it a day!" Ian said, sitting on the ground next to Keanu, who casually leaned his back against the ground.

"No, I think we should do that, you know. When all this is over, I have no problem resting for a few days, but not resting... I just love filming. Keanu's words surprised Ian.

"Okay. But before that, I have a question, Keanu. Ian said, turning to face the guy.

Ian saw that behind Keanu, there were already people walking around, ready to shoot.

"Say it.

Ian paused. "I read your script. A

momentary pause crept between them. It wasn't embarrassing, but Ian knew Keanu had something to say so they could move on from the topic.

"How?" Keanu asked rhetorically.

In Keanu's heart, there is also a lot going on. In a way, Ian Renner was a man who basically helped him find a more stable job, new opportunities in a new field, and opened his eyes to do things he had never seen before.

But on the other hand, if there is anyone in the world who can achieve his original dream, it is Ian. For Keanu, getting the "Ian likes this script" endorsement, or at least the phrase, is enough.

"I was impressed. The first time you gave me the script, we talked about it for about two hours. But this... If I didn't understand the situation, I would say it's perfect. Of course, there are a few scenes that any director would be willing to change, but other than that, it's really great and I have some suggestions for the script. I can recommend some directors who will be happy to create this film. Is that okay?

He smiled like a flower, and showed the brightest smile to those who were in the same profession as him. Still, he did.

"Okay, thanks. That's great. Thank you for all this, it means a lot to me. He laughs.

"I know... Ian paused, then looked away from him. "I know, I've done my best... "

I--I have a question too...

"Why

, why are you helping me so much?" he asked, frowning. "I mean, I'm not ungrateful, because believe me, Ian, no one is as grateful to you at this moment as I am. I really want to kiss you right now. But why?"

the question made Ian laugh again. That's a good question, now, now, how do you answer it? Is it because you're almost a star in my world? Keanu Reeves, you're a good guy in addition to being a great actor. At least you are, I don't know how people from two worlds get along other than look alike. Oh, not to mention that you've also done some random acts of kindness, including secretly donating large sums of money to children's hospitals. When you take a picture with women, it makes headlines because of respect for women.

It may sound crazy for me to say it out loud now, but when I shoot The Matrix, you'll be playing Neo, and being an iconic character will be your day job – basically.

Keanu: Actually, that's a very good question. I wish I could give you a hundred reasons, but out of respect, I must tell you that you look like a very nice person. And, I'm not saying for the sake of saying ... I see a lot of potential in you, even as an actor, a job that you don't like but accept so that you can continue to pursue your passion.

Keanu's eyes welled up with tears.

"Thank you. He sighed.

"No, thank you for being a part of my journey. Anyway, all but these boring topics," Ian winked at Leylin, who was standing a few steps away. "I thought, it's time to get back on set, back to the big cameras!" ————————————

a waitress stood aside, ready to get moving. The atmosphere was tense, but Ian tried to keep his composure.

The reason why it is so tense is because the same scene has been played more than seven times. It was a small role, and Ian blamed himself for choosing this lady for such a small role. Although he didn't say it out loud, he was angry.

"...... And, action!"

"What do you want, sir?" she asked.

"Americano, thank you. And bear's paws. Thank you.

"Okay, sir

" Oh, what about the bathroom?

She looked back at Keanu for a moment, and Ian knew she had messed up again

"Left at the end of the hallway

" "Thank you!"

"And... Ka!" Ian said, repeating what had just happened. "Okay, let's take a five-minute break, can I have a few words with you... Tessa, is that your name?"

"Yes, sir, yes... She said, walking briskly towards Ian. She's a novice actor, and to be honest, at this moment, Ian has absolutely no idea or remembers any aspect of the role assigned to her.

"Yes, then, Tessa. I found that you have some problems with the characterization. Ian began to say politely.

"Huh?"

she looked at him, her big blue eyes wide.

"Yes, first of all, stop repeating sir over and over again in conversations. I don't see that word in the script at all, and... Yes, I once said that you can just change the lines if necessary, but at the moment you use Mr. is equivalent to ruining the whole script. We can try again without Mr. You can maintain a little bit of an edge in the character, and we'll see again... Ian nodded, and she agreed.

"Alright, start from the beginning.... "

What do you order?" asked the waitress without hesitation this time.

[at Rena Studio] at

nine o'clock in the morning, Ian was sitting in his office, sipping his favorite cup of coffee, waiting for his next appointment.

His eyes were fixed on his computer, reading an email from a company asking him to attend an opening ceremony.

People often do this – extend invitations to celebrities, and when they come, everything one wants, including big donations and glitzy fame, becomes their reward.

"Derek Vitek is a pleasure to see you here, thank you for coming!" Ian stood up respectfully as soon as he saw Derek, the producer of "Lucifer," walk into his office with a big smile.

"Ah, no, thank you for your appointment. "

This is your first time in my office, how's it going?" Ian asked rhetorically. "Did you make it well?"

"Of course, I found it, thank you." Ah, that's great, you know. There's a problem, though."

The man said as soon as he sat down in front of Ian. It was almost like he didn't want to spend time explaining why the hell he was there.

Ian straightened up in his chair and reached forward. "What's the matter?" he asked.

"Well, the numbers have been going down. A lot of people are complaining, and to be honest, almost everyone is complaining, and we think that's the main reason for the drop in ratings this season. "

What's the reason?" Ian asked again, though he knew what the problem was. If he knew anything about Lucifer, it was the repetitive nature of the episodes.

"Well, Ian, not to mention, everybody loves what Chad has done with the series. He plays Lucifer with a lot of personality. It's true. People love it, but there is also a negative side, and some people complain that the story becomes repetitive. Also, I want to tell you... You don't have any pressure, but the work of the third season we hope to start as soon as possible.

Ian smiled and nodded. "I'll get started. He agreed, but refused to acknowledge the problems mentioned by the producers.

He silently made a note in his heart of his determination to make this TV series the best.
