This celebrity is overly enthusiastic!

Chapter 18: Even with strict scoring rules, you still need to get into Beijing Film Academy.

[System: Mission complete. Congratulations, host, you have received an S-level reward: [Face-to-Face Transmission]]

I woke up early in the morning and found that Huang Shengyi's mission was inexplicably completed. We had just finished rehearsing. So, will we still be able to film the rest of the scenes?

The question only existed in his mind for a moment before being put aside, and Chen Yuan quickly put the reward into practice.

[Face-to-face transmission], Chen Yuan can unilaterally and directly transmit his thoughts to the minds of anyone within a ten-meter radius.

However, the information conveyed is limited to the rewards Chen Yuan has currently obtained, such as the information contained in audio-visual works and lighting and wire work experience.

This was extremely disappointing for Chen Yuan. He had been thinking that [Face-to-Face Transmission] was a bug-level ability that would allow him to become Professor X and brainwash others by arbitrarily injecting information into their minds!

The transmitted content was limited to the rewards that Chen Yuan had already obtained, which was really boring!

However, after actually experiencing the amazing effects of "face-to-face transmission," Chen Yuan felt: It's really amazing!
When communicating with the lighting, photography, and actors, we would explain the desired effects and scenes to Chen Yuan while simultaneously sending the information via "face-to-face transmission." This allowed them to quickly understand the effects Chen Yuan wanted, greatly reducing communication costs.

A director's job is to guide the performances and control the narrative.

Although Chen Yuan doesn't have much directing experience, he can miraculously make his staff understand his meaning. This ability is probably something that even top directors like Cameron, Spielberg, and Nolan don't possess.
Wa hahaha!

Of course, this ability alone can only make Chen Yuan a qualified plagiarist. If he wants to create and adapt his own good works, he still needs to actively learn a lot of relevant knowledge.

Although he had already received the reward, Chen Yuan couldn't be heartless, since it was Yi Yi who gave it to him.

So, just as planned, Chen Yuan mobilized the filming team to record a sword fight scene that wouldn't appear in the main commercial but would only be included as behind-the-scenes footage.

With the addition of the new technology, the filming speed of the production crew has been visibly improved.

Although school has started now, Ms. Deng didn't express her opinions despite seeing the busy film crew.

Staff members were setting up the wire rigging equipment, while Chen Yuan and Huang Shengyi, who had finished their makeup, sat resting in a bamboo-built pavilion.

At this moment, Huang Shengyi didn't need to act gentle and dignified. Her girlish feelings were suppressed, making her look awkward yet charming.

"You're about to be a senior in high school, are you feeling a lot of pressure?" Chen Yuan asked her casually.

"Sigh, how can it not be big?"
My father graduated from Tsinghua University and studied in the United States; my mother attended East China Normal University; my maternal grandfather was a professor at Tsinghua University; my aunt was the founder of the Xinmin Evening News; and my maternal uncle was Wu Jinglian, a leading figure in economics.
My grades weren't even in the top 200 of my grade, and sometimes I really felt like I didn't belong in my family.

"Wow, that's amazing!" Chen Yuan exclaimed sincerely. This is a true scholarly family!

"I admire you more, Brother Yuan, for building your current business from scratch."

"So what are your plans for the future? Which university do you want to attend, and what major do you want to study?"

Upon hearing this question, Huang Shengyi blushed instantly. She glanced around, then leaned closer to Chen Yuan and whispered:

"Brother Yuan, do you think I have a future in the entertainment industry?"

Chen Yuan was taken aback, then pretended not to know and deliberately asked:

"You're not thinking of applying to an art school, are you?"

Your poor grades are compared to those of students from Jiaotong University Affiliated High School, but in reality, with your abilities, you could easily get into a regular undergraduate university!

"Brother Yuan, I have something to tell you secretly, but please, please don't tell my mom!"

Looking at the rebellious girl whose expression was a mix of excitement and trepidation, Chen Yuan nodded. "I've made up my mind. I'm going to apply to the Beijing Film Academy or the Central Academy of Drama. As for grades, if I can't get a high score, surely I can get a low one?"

I plan to control my score so that it's high enough to get into an art school, but it's still not high enough for a good university, so my parents have no choice but to support me in pursuing an art school.

Chen Yuan was dumbfounded. So that's how you got into the Beijing Film Academy! (This is roughly how it actually happened!)

Is this family incapable of normal communication?
Despite his mother's domineering nature and Huang Shengyi's submissive upbringing, he devised such an extreme way to subtly resist.

Why do I suddenly feel sorry for her?

Seeing the girl's pitiful eyes, yearning for approval, Chen Yuan gave her a thumbs up.

"You have guts, but Yiyi, you'll be an adult next year. Are you prepared to take responsibility for your own decisions?"

Huang Shengyi wanted to confidently say that she could take responsibility for herself, but when she thought about how sad and disappointed her mother would be if she acted willfully, the words stuck in her throat.

Seeing the girl's imposing aura gradually dissipate, Chen Yuan met her evasive gaze and said in a deep voice:

"If you're really determined to go to film school and develop your career in the entertainment industry, come work for me. I can take care of you."

As if suddenly finding a pillar of support, Huang Shengyi immediately grabbed Chen Yuan's arm, but quickly let go when she realized something was wrong.

Looking at the girl's adorable face, full of collagen, and her blushing expression, Chen Yuan reached out the hand that she had just picked up and extended his little finger.

With her face flushed and her pearly teeth lightly biting her lip, Huang Shengyi saw the confident and handsome Chen Yuan and extended her hand to make a pinky promise with him.

"Then it's a deal, you really have to sign me then."

"Yes, it's a promise."

Huang Shengyi's personality is the type that entertainment companies like the most. She has been disciplined since childhood, making her easy to manipulate and control.

She has a strong learning ability and can endure hardship. As long as you can control her occasional whims and willful temper, she's practically a chosen working woman.

Huang Shengyi is top-notch in appearance and has honed her excellent dance skills since childhood. Although her singing is not particularly good, it is at least much better than Binbin's karaoke-level singing.

She is qualified and capable of becoming a true all-around star in film, television, and music.

In my past life, I was fooled by Yang Zai and made so much money, but it wasn't even mine. I was so stupid. In this life, I'll just work for Chen Yuan!

On September 7th, all filming was completed, and most of the crew of "Love Comes Like Spring Tide" disbanded.

Huang Shengyi reluctantly returned to Shanghai to continue his senior year of high school, carrying his secret promise.

Chen Yuan invited some people who had shown enthusiasm and genuine talent during the filming of commercials to join his metaverse, piecing together the framework of his film and television department.

They also signed Wang Baoqiang, who had been doing odd jobs on the set since filming wrapped.

Although Yuan Yuzhou himself doesn't have many film and television projects, he can use his connections to get Baoqiang into other production teams. He doesn't need any big roles; just enough for Baoqiang to have some acting experience.

Given Chen Yuan's current influence in the industry, many people are willing to give him face.

The next task is to find someone to sing the song for the MV/advertisement, do the post-production, and, with the new cheat code, thoroughly train the Shanghai Animation Film Studio!
