A great director who grew up happily

Chapter 473 Let’s discuss our own issues

At the end of today's game, a bug was discovered, which caused everyone to laugh and have fun while recording the originally sentimental ending.

Huang Bo even took the initiative, using a mineral water bottle as a microphone to question Yan Min.

"Come, let me interview you. How do you feel right now? Does it feel like you're giving yourself a slap in the face?"

Huang Lei was just watching the fun, eating melon seeds and standing by to sabotage the show.

"Haven't you been giving us a lot of hard time today? You've made us blindly choose our marriage partners, and you've made us play the villain and ruin our children's wishes. Now you're getting your comeuppance, right? I'll see how the recording goes later. How do you feel when a centenarian brings six octogenarian children through the timeline?"

Faced with the collective beating from the men's gang, Yan Min could only smile bitterly and try hard to maintain her dignity as a director.

"Let's hurry up and record the show. Your children have already mentioned the time points waiting for you. We will go in order of priority. Jinnian, please go to your time first, 1997."

"Next is Yixing."

"Then there's Piglet, Brother Bo, Brother Yellow Thunder, and Brother Red Thunder."

After receiving the news of departure, Chen Jinnian started jogging, while Honglei stood on tiptoe and looked into the distance.

"Jinnian has to run such a long distance."

"Of course not. He and Yixing were born in the 1990s, and we were born in the 1970s. There's a generation gap between us." After Huang Lei finished speaking, he trotted over to catch up.

Although it is not yet November, the temperature in Harbin late at night is close to zero degrees Celsius, and your nose will feel cold even if you just stand there.

Honglei is the oldest, so he started last, but he was also the closest, and he reached the "1970" card in just two steps.

This is the starting line of the Time Bridge and also the year Honglei was born.

When Honglei started walking with his two daughters, the full recording officially began.

Hong Lei walked on the time bridge to 72 and brought Huang Lei with him; in 74, he met the "newborn" Huang Bo; in 79, he met the waiting piglet.

Then the four of them began to chat about their experiences.

In 1983, Huang Bo went to primary school;

In 1984, Huang Lei was in junior high school;

In 1988, Honglei graduated from high school;

In 1990, Huang Lei enrolled in Beijing Film Academy and filmed his first film.

In 1991, Zhang Yixing joined the team.

In 1993, Huang Bo formed the group "Blue Wind and Sand" and began to perform in bars.

In 1995, Honglei was admitted to the Central Academy of Drama, and Xiaozhu made his official debut by participating in an imitation competition.

In 1997, Huang Lei graduated from graduate school and stayed on to teach at the school, while Huang Bo opened a factory in Qingdao.

At this time, Chen Jinnian, who had been waiting for a long time in "1997", was almost frozen. He now understood why people in Northeast China wanted to go to Hainan, because the Northeast was really cold.

What nonsense is that the cold in the south is a magical attack, and the cold in the north is a physical attack.

He only knew that Harbin was so cold even before winter arrived, and by December, freezing to death would no longer be an adjective but a descriptive word.

"Brothers, you are finally here."

Huang Bo saw his anxious look and jokingly said, "Look, we are all halfway through our lives, but his is just beginning."

"Hey, Jinnian, in which year did you debut?" Honglei asked curiously.

"I'm different from you. I didn't make my debut in the standard sense. In 2015, I asked my dad for over two million yuan and used my summer vacation to shoot a movie in Dalian."

"It was a pure wild film. I was the director, screenwriter, producer, cameraman, and the male lead. The only person in the crew who had participated in filming a movie was Maizi, who had just finished playing the role of Little Magic Fairy."

Looking back now, Chen Jinnian felt that making the movie seemed like a piece of cake to him.

"Then you made your fortune with this movie," Huang Bo said.

"Well, the movie earned 20 million yuan in box office revenue at the time. I used the money to film 'Hello Teacher' with Mr. Yu Qian during the winter break of my senior year of high school. It was through this movie that I was able to move from online streaming platforms to the cinema market. Otherwise, my movies wouldn't have been able to be shown in theaters."

Huang Lei patted him on the shoulder. "That's impressive! You were able to build such a large film and television company in such a short period of time. I also heard that you invested heavily and built a special effects production company from scratch. Now its market value is over a billion."

"Ah, special effects production companies, they are money-eating beasts." Hong Lei said with emotion, there is no company that does special effects without burning money.

"It's really expensive. I've forgotten how much money I invested in it. It feels like I've burned through 200 million this year." Chen Jinnian calculated in his mind.

"In the beginning, I was really short of money. It was because of that that I recorded Longing and took on endorsements. It wasn't until the box office revenue from Hello Teacher arrived that things started to get a little better."

Huang Lei laughed, "So the main reason for accepting variety shows is the announcement fee."

"What else?" Chen Jinnian asked back, "People who record variety shows are either seeking fame or profit. I don't want exposure, so I'll definitely prioritize money. Regardless, even giving money won't make any difference now."

Upon hearing this, Huang Bo immediately said to the camera, "I can guarantee this. Jinnian is here simply because of my face."

As soon as Huang Bo finished showing off, everyone was stopped by Yan Min.

"Stop. From 1991 to 2009, 18 years have passed. Yixing has reached its final destination. You have to leave."

Several people immediately turned their gaze to Zhang Yixing, who had a confused expression.

Chen Jinnian looked up at the time card above. It turned out that during the conversation, everyone had unknowingly arrived in "2009".

"Brother Yixing, what year did you debut?"

“I was born in 2012.”

Hearing their conversation, Huang Lei, who was feeling sad, suddenly burst out laughing. "Debuted in 2012 and stopped in 2009. Yixing, you can be considered a record-breaker. Your acting career has been negative for three years."

Zhang Yixing himself laughed.

"Okay, leave your son to me in care. I will take care of him until the end of his life." Chen Jinnian said jokingly, making everyone's sadness disappear.

"Are you sick? You are not providing for your children in their old age. Believe it or not, I will kick you." Huang Bo tried hard to smile.

As a result, Honglei actually nodded seriously, "That's right, I was born in 70. If I had had a child earlier, then my child would really be much older than Jinnian."

After Honglei finished speaking, he patted his twin daughters and said, "Jinnian, you have to call them sister."

"Puff, cackle, cackle, cackle."

The little pig, who had the lowest sense of humor, was already laughing like a goose. He really couldn't hold it in any longer.

Huang Lei smiled and agreed, "You can't count it that way. Nowadays, there are many people in the countryside who are younger than their elders. Daughter, from now on, you and your uncle Jinnian will be on your own. You call him your younger uncle, and he calls you his niece."

"What's the point of calling her niece? Brother Huang Lei, you can't take advantage of me." Chen Jinnian objected loudly and firmly.

The whole scene was filled with laughter, and the sentimental educational segment was a complete failure.
