Not only is he doing what he likes, but he is also surrounded by his loved ones. How can he not be considered the luckiest person?

After getting off the plane this time, I took the airport shuttle car to the hotel.

I met Director Thompson wearing sunglasses at the door.

"My dear senior brother and sister, you two are really something. Every time I want to pick you up at the airport in person, you are unwilling to do so!" Director Thompson complained.

Fu Huaijin did not agree to let him pick them up at the airport, so he waited for them at the hotel.

Shen Susu also didn't understand why he was so enthusiastic towards the two of them. He was just playing a role, but why did they act as if they had saved his life?

"For a director, being able to perform what he considers to be his dream role is like saving his life," Fu Huaijin told Shen Susu.

Shen Susu raised her eyebrows and said, "Then if I also acted in your work, does that mean I saved your life?"

Fu Huaijin nodded vigorously. Shen Susu didn't know that, unknown to her, she had already saved Fu Huaijin's life because of her presence.

Several people chatted and laughed as they entered the hotel's presidential suite.

Director Thomson then said, "I have an old friend who wanted to come with me to greet you, but I declined."

Shen Susu and Fu Huaijin both listened to him carefully and felt that he would not bring up this matter for no reason.

Director Thompson continued, "My old friend has a movie coming up and he needs a Chinese actress who is good at Kung Fu."

Director Thompson looked at Shen Susu expectantly.

Fu Huaijin frowned slightly.

What Director Thompson said is actually the dilemma that Chinese actresses are facing in international films today.

They are basically not asked to perform particularly delicately, and most of the scenes where they are required are for fighting scenes.

The previous generation of Chinese actresses were famous for their fighting abilities. They all made a name for themselves abroad through action scenes, and this stereotype has not changed until now.

Fu Huaijin, however, feels that action scenes are rather harmful to the body and long-term training can easily cause injuries, which is not a good thing.

"Which director?" Shen Susu asked.

Director Thomson said a name: "Colin."

Director Colin and Director Thompson are directors of the same level. Both of them are top directors internationally and have created countless excellent works.

"As far as I can remember, Director Colin rarely makes action movies," Fu Huaijin said.

Director Thomson nodded and said, "He does rarely make action movies, and there aren't many action scenes this time. But he's always striving for perfection. Since the novel is about a Chinese Kung Fu master, he must restore it 100%."

The movie that director Colin is going to shoot this time is adapted from a very famous novel abroad.

Shen Susu heard Director Thompson talking about the novel. She had only heard of the name but had never read it.

"Or, I'll take a look at this novel first." Shen Susu said.

Director Thomson was obviously well prepared. He took out two books and handed them to Shen Susu, one was the Chinese and the other was the English version of the novel.

"Can you finish reading this novel before you leave the United States?" Director Thompson asked.

Shen Susu looked at the thickness of the novel and nodded: "About the same."

"Okay, after you finish reading this novel, I will arrange a meeting between you and Director Colin. Don't rush to refuse. Whether you want to participate or not, just think of it as making more friends in our country." Director Thompson was obviously very disciplined in his work, and doing so would not make Shen Susu feel abrupt.

Shen Susu felt that this was a very comfortable social distance and nodded.

Although other artists may feel that whether they play the role or not, being able to meet a big director like Colin and establish a friendship with him will make it easier to discuss cooperation in the future.

But Shen Susu felt that it was unnecessary. Instead of kneeling down to discuss cooperation, it would be better not to cooperate.

The reason why she can do this is that there are not many particularly capable actresses among the new generation, and her current level is considered unique.

"The interview is scheduled for tomorrow afternoon. You should have a good rest today. If you want to play around in the city, I can be your tour guide." Director Thompson said with a smile.

Shen Susu was very surprised and asked, "Don't you have to work?"

Director Thomson shook his head and said, "I always insist on combining work and rest. Now that the movie has just been released, I am still on vacation. I haven't decided what the next movie will be, so I might as well accompany you around to play."

Listening to Director Thomson's words, Shen Susu felt that her situation was similar, except that Director Thomson seemed to be more strict in selecting scripts and it took him longer. On Shen Susu's side, because Fu Huaijin's film selection team conducted the preliminary selection, the scripts that came into her hands were not particularly bad, so it was easier for her to choose.

"I guess we have to stay in the hotel to adjust to the jet lag. After the interview is over, we'll find a chance to go shopping." Fu Huaijin said.

Director Thompson didn't force it when he heard this.

After a long flight, the couple had no energy to play with their phones. After washing up, they fell on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.

When they woke up, they found that Wu Ling's phone was almost ringing off the hook.

Shen Susu looked at the dozen missed calls, called back, and asked, "Did something big happen in China?"

Wu Ling said succinctly: "Ye Mingwei publicly accused you of stealing the role on Weibo."

Shen Susu: "Ah?"

Shen Susu almost thought she had heard it wrong: "Why is Ye Mingwei crazy?"

Wu Ling sighed and said, "It's the role she had already officially announced, the movie directed by Stimson. She insisted that you went abroad to steal her role, so she made a fuss on Weibo."

Shen Susu was still puzzled: "What Director Stevenson? I don't know anything about him."

As they were talking, someone knocked on the door outside.

It's the room manager.

Shen Susu frowned and looked at the other person.

In order to serve the Chinese people, the hotel sent a room attendant who is fluent in Chinese.

"Hello, dear guest. There is a man at our hotel front desk who claims to be Director Stevenson. He wants to see you. He has been waiting downstairs for five hours. Because you are an actor from China, our hotel dare not refuse you, so I want to ask you if you are willing to meet him?"

The hotel naturally didn't dare to let people up directly, but if the guests suffered losses due to the hotel's negligence, they didn't dare to bear the consequences.

Only then did Shen Susu realize that this so-called Director Stevenson actually existed and really wanted her to replace Ye Mingwei's role.

Shen Susu shook her head and said, "Since he has signed a contract with someone else, I won't meet him to save trouble."
