Rant Show: I Angrily Criticized a Million Parents

Chapter 678 A Hollywood Star Wants to Join?

Everyone chimed in, trying to dissuade Zhou Yang from making the idea, arguing that zombie movies were too difficult to make and that even if they were well-made, they might not attract an audience.

They believed that making war movies was much easier.

However, Zhou Yang has always had his own ideas. He put down his chopsticks and said confidently, "What I like most is to embrace challenges!"

Seeing his reaction, no one said anything more, but they still didn't have much faith in zombie movies.

Although the friends at the scene trusted Zhou Yang, they still had doubts about zombie movies.

For the rest of the time, everyone chatted casually at the table, and clearly no longer discussed the topic from before.

The dinner party finally ended at 9:30 p.m.

Zhou Yang hurriedly drove away, his mind racing with thoughts of a zombie movie, eager to film it.

This challenge excited him.

Upon returning home, he immediately retreated to his room, where the sound of typing on a keyboard filled the air.

After a night of hard work, Zhou Yang finally finished the script.

He looked at the script on the computer and smiled with satisfaction.

He then sent the script to Huang Xiaobo and went to sleep.

When he woke up, he found many missed calls on his phone, all from Huang Xiaobo.

"Hey?"

Huang Xiaobo spoke excitedly on the phone, saying, "I've already read the script!! It's fantastic! I read it from beginning to end and didn't find a single problem!"

"So what do you mean?" Zhou Yang replied with a smile. He still remembered Huang Xiaobo's joke about jumping off the Jin Mao Tower.

Huang Xiaobo also recalled his words at the time and involuntarily coughed lightly.

"Cough cough."

“Any role is fine! I’m not picky!” Huang Xiaobo immediately agreed, a truly unexpected change.

Zhou Yang chuckled and immediately agreed.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, the two hung up the phone.

When writing the script, Zhou Yang considered giving Huang Xiaobo a more challenging role.

Next came the casting process. Zhou Yang thought carefully and felt that there was one person who was very suitable for the role of the female lead.

So Zhou Yang made a phone call, "Hello, is this Ya Ya?"

Ya Ya was overjoyed to receive a call from Zhou Yang, and jumped up with excitement.

"What a special day it is today?"

"Yes! Is there something you need?" Ya Ya tried to suppress her excitement and remain calm.

Zhou Yang smiled slightly, feeling Ya Ya's enthusiasm.

"Actually, it's nothing serious! It's just that there's a new movie going to be filmed soon, and I wasn't sure if you'd be interested!"

Ya Ya didn't care about the specifics of the movie; as long as she could be with Zhou Yang, she felt incredibly happy.

So she agreed without hesitation, without even knowing what the movie's theme was.

Zhou Yang couldn't help but laugh. Sure enough, women in love are always prone to losing their rationality.

Zhou Yang needs to carefully consider the role of a strong male character in the drama.

Meanwhile, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson posted a message on social media with a photo showing him in China.

"#The Rock Johnson: The food in China is amazing! It's really great! I love it here!" Zhou Yang's mood immediately brightened when he saw this post.

He left a comment welcoming Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson to China!
Then, Zhou Yang dialed a number, which was answered after ringing for a few seconds.

"Hey buddy! You came to China without even saying hello to your old friend!" Zhou Yang teased with a smile, his tone tinged with reproach, but he was clearly joking.

On the other end of the phone, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson was enjoying a spicy crayfish dish.

"I swear, I just got off the plane this afternoon! I was mainly attracted by these spicy crayfish!" Dwayne Johnson said between bites, his voice slightly slurred.

The thought of a muscular man enjoying spicy crayfish on the street in the countryside is enough to make one chuckle.

However, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's image is a perfect fit for the role in the new film.

It just so happens that he is also in China, so this would fulfill their previous agreement to collaborate on a film, so why not? But Zhou Yang also knows that the production of zombie movies has become more difficult, and Dwayne Johnson might not be interested in them.

"May I have the honor of showing you some Chinese cuisine?" Zhou Yang politely suggested.

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's eyes lit up upon hearing this, and he appeared very pleased.

He felt very inconvenienced because he did not bring an assistant or agent with him on this trip and could not speak the language.

"Okay, okay!! I'm the luckiest person today! Zhou, come here quickly!"

Zhou Yang could feel the excitement on the other end of the phone. He immediately hung up and drove to pick up Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson.

Meanwhile, fans on social media were incredibly excited to see the two celebrities interacting.

Fans in China recognized Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's location immediately, but by the time they arrived, he was already gone.

Zhou Yang took Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson to a unique Sichuan restaurant, promising him a happy and enjoyable meal.

After a hearty meal, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson gently wiped the grease from the corners of his mouth with a napkin.

He raved about Chinese cuisine, exclaiming, "Zhou, your food is absolutely delicious!"

"Of course! There's plenty of delicious food waiting for you!" Zhou Yang replied with a smile, his tone full of enticement.

Upon hearing that there would be plenty of delicious food, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's eyes lit up, and he asked, "Really?"

“Of course it’s true, haha! But, Dwayne Johnson, I have a new script I’d like to show you. What do you think?” Zhou Yang said with a smile, while personally making him a cup of tea.

Mentioning the new script invigorated Dwayne Johnson, who found making movies more exciting than eating.

While reviewing the script, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson asked curiously, "What kind of movie is this?"

"Oh, buddy! This is a zombie movie! No, no, no! Don't make that face yet, watch it first, okay?" Zhou Yang hurriedly explained.

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson paused for a moment, then looked up at Zhou Yang.

Indeed, many people have prejudices against zombie movies.

Zhou Yang helplessly spread his hands. Dwayne Johnson still trusted his taste, so he began to carefully read through the script.

As he read on, a look of surprise gradually appeared on Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's face.

He excitedly raised his head, holding the script in both hands, and said excitedly, "Zhou, I must act in this movie!! It's fantastic!" He looked at Zhou Yang and thought that this decision was incredibly insightful.

He firmly believes this film will change people's perception of zombie movies!
Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson made up his mind that the role of the protagonist was perfect for him.

"Zhou, I think it was a great choice for you to cast me as Lin Shuoyu!" The excitement on his face undoubtedly showed his love for the role.

Zhou Yang coughed twice and said, "Sorry! I should be the main character!"

These words immediately made Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson look embarrassed.
