A great director who grew up happily

Parallel world

In mid-August, a film crew was busy filming at a private school in Dalian.

The scene being filmed today is a group scene with students. The actors are wearing baggy school uniforms that cover up their body shapes, but even with this kind of appearance-sealing device, there is still a boy and a girl who are particularly eye-catching and can be distinguished from the crowd at a glance.

They are the protagonists of this play, Chen Jinnian and Zhao Jinmai.

The crew was filming around them.

In the corner of the corridor, far away from the shooting center, several crew members hid here to smoke.

"See? He was both the director and the lead actor, and he actually made this movie."

"Hey, who says she isn't? I heard she's a high school student in the capital, and she won't be in her third year until next month. She's really young and promising."

"What's the point of being young? It's because I have a good father. If my father gave me a few million, I could have made it." A young staff member said disdainfully. Judging from his appearance, he should be a college graduate.

"You're just talking nonsense. Do you have their ability? You can't even come up with a script, and you're making a movie. Just do your job well." The person next to him retorted.

"That's right. We've been in this industry for seven or eight years and have been on dozens of crews. We can tell whether someone is good or not just by looking at them. Although the director is young, he does a really good job. If there is enough funding, he can make even better movies than he does now."

The young man saw that he was being repeatedly criticized, and angrily threw his cigarette butt on the ground, then left with a sour face.

The rest of the people were also not surprised. In their line of work, there were many people like this who were too arrogant and looked down on everyone. As a result, they had been working hard for more than ten years but still got nothing.

After the meeting, everyone hurried back to their respective posts. Today's workload for the crew was not easy, and it was also the last day of filming.

The filming went quickly, so everyone left work early and happily enjoyed the wrap-up banquet.

If the shooting is slow, then I will stay up late and work overtime, and stop when it is finished.

It was not until around three o'clock in the afternoon, after completing another shot, that Chen Jinnian quickly ran to the monitor and began to review the results of the shooting.

The crew members all focused their attention on him, and the actors also stood on tiptoe to look over here.

Chen Jinnian checked the material twice over and over again. After making sure there was no problem, he stood up excitedly and shouted loudly to the entire crew.

"I announce that the film 'Take My Brother Away' has officially wrapped. We're having a wrap party tonight, and everyone in the crew will be giving out red envelopes."

Upon hearing this, the crew immediately cheered excitedly. It was not easy. After filming for a month in the hot summer, they could finally relax.

Looking at everything happening before his eyes, Chen Jinnian felt as if he had been living in a dream for the past two years.

He is actually a time traveler. One day, when he woke up from the graduate dormitory, he found himself at the opening ceremony of Chunfeng Middle School. His classmates were Ji Yangyang, Fang Yifan, and Qiao Yingzi. He immediately realized that he had come to the world of "Little Joy".

It's just that the timeline is a little different. He traveled to the beginning of his first year of high school two years ago, which was still 2013.

At the same time, his family conditions were very good. When his father Chen Ming was young, he was dealing in computers in Zhongguancun. He happened to catch up with the craze of setting up computer rooms in government agencies and schools. He successfully made his first pot of gold by relying on some big orders. Later, he set up an investment company with his high school classmate Qiao Weidong, and it also flourished.

Before getting married, his mother Su Ying was a nurse in a Grade A hospital. After having Chen Jinnian, she resigned and became a mother. However, after he went to school, his mother, who could not sit still, started a beauty salon business and now owns three branches in Beijing.

With his family background, he is not rich in Beijing, but he can still have enough food and clothing for the rest of his life.

If nothing unexpected happens, he just needs to continue his studies step by step under the arrangements of his parents.

However, for time travelers, this is impossible unless something unexpected happens.

Soon, he discovered that he also had a system called the "Great Director Training System".

The system is relatively simple, mainly gaining experience points through daily check-ins, and then using the experience points to upgrade director skills.

And after reaching a certain number of sign-ins, you will receive a sign-in gift package.

For example, his current script, "Take My Brother Away", was obtained after completing the anniversary signing. The system automatically completed the copyright processing and gave him the film soundtrack.

Sometimes, if you sign in on a specific date, such as the tenth day, the hundredth day, or the full month, you will also receive a small gift package.

The contents of these small gift packs are completely random, ranging from useless things like slippers that never get damaged and super useful erasers to miraculous medicines like beauty pills.

When he signed the ten-day contract, he was prescribed a beauty pill, and he has become more and more handsome in the past two years.

In addition to the check-in function, the system also has a task function.

Tasks are triggered randomly. After completing the task, you will receive task rewards and skill points. Skill points can be used to quickly upgrade skills.

On his birthday in February this year, the "Newcomer" mission was triggered.

The task is to complete the filming of a movie independently. After completion, you will randomly obtain two movie scripts and 5 skill points.

It was precisely because of this that he spent several months persuading his parents and, after signing a bunch of guarantee agreements, finally secured a two million investment.

This amount of money is not enough to make a movie in theaters, but it is more than enough to make an online movie.

Now the task is finally completed.

Chen Jinnian lay in the director's chair, and with a thought, he submitted the task in the system.

“Mission completion is being assessed.”

"This mission took 171 days to complete."

"64% of the participants were involved in the whole process, including being the director, lead actor, and cameraman"

"Overall completion degree A-, triggering the reward package, which will be distributed together with the mission reward. Please check it carefully."

Seeing this, Chen Jinnian was overjoyed. He didn't expect to have such an unexpected gain. He quickly opened the system backpack to check, and sure enough, he found the reward gift package that had just been issued.

He couldn't wait to open it and found that a foundation-building pill popped out.

"This is a common third-grade elixir. It absorbs a little extra spiritual energy at the beginning of foundation building, which can increase the success rate of Qi Refining cultivators in foundation building. P.S. This world is not a fairy world. After taking it, it will only improve the host's physical fitness."

"Fuck, this system is amazing. It has all these immortality-enhancing elixirs. It's a pity I'm just a mortal, but it's nice to be able to try out some of the flavors."

Chen Jinnian thought to himself, then exchanged it from the system, pretended to take it out from his pocket, and threw it directly into his mouth.

It tastes pretty good, a bit like Wangzai milk candy, but it melts in your mouth and flows down your throat, making you feel warm all over.

Looking at Chen Jinnian lying on the chair with an intoxicated look on his face, Zhao Jinmai walked over with a pout, stretched out her little hand and said, "I saw you secretly eating candy, quickly give me a piece."

"Ah, I didn't." He looked up in confusion.

"I saw it all. Why don't you open your mouth and let me smell it." Zhao Jinmai said relentlessly.

Chen Jinnian helplessly turned out all the pockets of his school uniform, but they were all empty. "Jinmai, I really don't have anything. If you don't believe me, take a look."

"Hmph, you're a director, but you're so stingy. You only brought a piece of candy." She left with a look of contempt on her face.

Chen Jinnian's forehead was full of black lines. He was used to laughing and joking on the crew, and because of the role in the movie, he spoiled this little girl to the sky.

This is going to turn Tiangang upside down.
