Rant Show: I Angrily Criticized a Million Parents

Chapter 264 I was born watching your shows!

"You..." Chen Tianzhen stopped in surprise. Zhou Yang showed great determination and extraordinary confidence.

Zhou Yang smiled and said mysteriously, "Do you know why I haven't taken on any new movie roles for the past two weeks?"
"Isn't it just because of laziness?" Chen Tianzhen blurted out.

Zhou Yang turned around, took a document from the drawer, and threw it in front of Chen Tianzhen.

Chen Tianzhen took the document; there were only four words written on the cover.

Operation Red Sea!

He opened the cover, saw the first line of text, and his eyes suddenly shrank.

"This film is a co-production approved by Singapore and Canada, showcasing the contributions and efforts made by Singaporeans overseas to protect overseas Chinese communities."

Zhou Yang explained, "About two weeks ago, director Zhuang Wenqiang suddenly called me and said that director Dante Lam was preparing to shoot a film supported by the state and invited me to participate. The past two weeks have been in the final review process; I just passed it yesterday, and I'm going to the set tomorrow."

Chen Tianzhen suddenly realized that this was the reason why Zhou Yang hadn't taken on any new film roles recently.

"That's fantastic! From now on, you're an actor supported by the government, so anyone who wants to smear you will have to think twice!" Chen Tianzhen said excitedly.

To participate in a co-production film supported by the government, one must have undergone rigorous vetting. Criticizing this actor is tantamount to questioning the government's stance.

……

Two days later, Zhou Yang embarked on his journey to Hainan, where he would begin his filming trip.

At the same time, Zhou Yang shared a message on social media.

"#Actor Zhou Yang: I've tried realistic films, comedy films, and suspense films. Next up, a military film! 'Operation Red Sea,' I will shine across the world with my sword!"

These fans had been waiting for Zhou Yang for half a month, and then his domineering social media post instantly caught everyone's attention.

"Wow, Yang, that's impressive! You actually starred in a war movie."

"Show off your skills? Could it be related to an operation overseas? I can't wait!"

"This type of film is hard to succeed with, Brother Yang. You'd better think this through."

"Exactly! These days everyone likes to watch young, handsome male actors. Who wants to watch a bunch of rugged men?"

"Brother Yang, although I'm a fan of yours, I have a feeling you're going to suffer a setback this time."

"."

Fans are skeptical of Zhou Yang's new movie.

Due to the current domestic aesthetic preference for young actors, the market demand for military-themed films is not high.

After a three-hour journey, Zhou Yang finally arrived at the film set.

Director Dante Lam came forward and warmly greeted Zhou Yang, saying, "Zhou Yang, I've long admired your name, and it's great to finally meet you today. Your acting in 'Project Gutenberg' was superb; I really appreciate it!"

Zhou Yang's high praise for director Dante Lam surprised him.

Zhou Yang humbly replied, "No, Chow Yun-fat's acting skills are better than mine."

Dante Lam nodded in satisfaction. He found that this young man was neither pretentious nor boastful, and there should be no conflict in cooperating with him.

Some young actors today have an inflated sense of self-importance and always want to change their lines and get more screen time, which causes a lot of trouble for directors.

Big directors are not very willing to work with these young actors.

Next, Dante Lam arranged a special gathering for all the main actors so that everyone could get to know each other.

"I hope you two can nurture your friendship. After all, in the movie, you are brothers who can trust each other," Dante Lam earnestly reminded you.

Everyone nodded and began to get to know each other.

“Brother Yi, hello, I was born watching your shows.” Zhou Yang suddenly said to Zhang Yi in the crowd.

"Born to watch my performance?" Zhang Yi frowned. "Are you mocking me for being old?"

“I’m not mocking you for being old. I was born watching you act in ‘Soldiers’ Sortie’ and ‘My Chief and My Regiment’,” Zhou Yang replied sincerely.

The others laughed and chimed in, "Yeah, Yi-ge, we've all grown up watching your acting. Your roles as the squad leader and Meng Fan are so classic!" "Get lost, am I that old?"

"Hahaha……"

"..."

After a pleasant interaction, everyone became more familiar with each other.

In the following week, Dante Lam did not have everyone start filming immediately.

Instead, they invited several Marine Corps instructors to introduce the use of various firearms and weapons, as well as team coordination and hand signals.

They also undergo three hours of special training every day, including a range of subjects required for Marine Corps soldiers, such as diving, weighted running, and shooting.

After each training session, everyone was exhausted and didn't even have the strength to move a finger.

Only Zhou Yang remained energetic.

"Zhou Yang! Did you take some supplements? You look so energetic!"

"Haha, did you take some kind of magic pill?"

"Get lost! What supplements do I, Zhou Yang, need? Who do you think you are?"

"Keep pretending!"

"..."

After a week of continuous training, Dante Lam felt it was about time and immediately ordered a halt to training to begin preparations for the first filming.

"Operation Red Sea" mainly depicts the "Jiaolong Commando Team" of the Chinese Navy, which consists of 8 members and is tasked with evacuating overseas Chinese.

The commando team split into two to launch a rescue operation, but unfortunately encountered an enemy ambush. In the end, they uncovered the rebel leader's plot to frame them.

Zhou Yang plays Gu Shun, a sniper in the Jiaolong Commando Team.

This scene, filmed in Hainan, tells the story of bidding farewell to fallen comrades-in-arms Zhuang Yu, a communications soldier, and Zhang Tiande, a machine gunner, on the Haijun warship.

To film this scene, Junfang specially provided an actual Jun warship, which was docked in the South China Sea, creating a stunning effect.

After the setup was complete, Dante Lam picked up a megaphone and shouted, "The first scene, the first shot of 'Operation Red Sea'! Move!"

At the director's command, everyone on the ship was plunged into a state of grief.

Zhang Yi plays Yang Rui, the captain of the Jiaolong Commando Team, who struggles to hold back his grief and shouts:
"salute!"

brush!
As soon as he finished speaking, all the naval soldiers raised their right hands to pay tribute to the two comrades who had sacrificed their lives for the country.

"Okay, click!"

Dante Lam gave a thumbs-up in praise.

"Great! Nothing went wrong. Let's all take a short break."

The following plot involves a battle against pirates, and Zhou Yang doesn't need to appear. Zhou Yang joins the Jiaolong Commando Team in Zhang Xing's place after Zhang Xing is injured.

Feeling bored with nothing to do, Zhou Yang casually took a few selfies and posted them on Weibo.

"#Actress Zhou Yang: Finally, I put on the uniform I longed for. #Photo#"

Zhou Yang is already tall and slender, and wearing this naval uniform adds even more masculine charm, captivating his fans.

"Wow! Yang looks absolutely stunning in his military uniform!"

"Seeing Brother Yang in his military uniform, I felt as if I were caught in a whirlpool of love."

"It's so captivating! I can't wait to see the military movie starring Yang Ge."

"..."

Two days later, filming in Hainan was completed, and the crew was about to depart for Morocco in Africa.

The real challenge is about to begin!
