Chapter 1698: Chapter 830: Counter Moves

Tim Lang’s high praise for Zhou Yun left the editor of Variety magazine quite stunned.

In fact, the editor who came today from Variety really had no particular opinion or feelings about Zhou Yun himself.

They weren’t stupid; seeing Zhou Yun on the brink of rising to fame, they wouldn’t intentionally sour their relationship with him.

However, being a long-established magazine, they also wouldn’t easily bow down to a celebrity artist.

"You’re a very prolific director. I heard you have many projects in preparation, and everyone is very interested in ’Deep Sea Hunting Dreams.’ When will filming for that movie start?"

"Oh, thank you for continuously being interested in this project. Actually, we’ve been making progress, but due to the very challenging filming nature, we haven’t yet found a suitable way to shoot it. Once we do, we’ll move the official filming onto the schedule."

...

After interviewing Tim Lang, the Variety magazine team was taken to Hugh Redman.

"Hi, Hugh."

This editor had met Hugh Redman before, and they knew each other.

Hugh Redman greeted them warmly.

"Hugh, we meet again. It’s really nice to see a familiar face here," the editor said. 𝖿𝖗ⅇℴ𝑚

"Yeah, we haven’t seen each other for quite a while," Hugh Redman said to them. "But the weather here is still worth the visit, isn’t it?"

At this time, it was snowing heavily in North America.

The Variety team laughed knowingly, nodding, and said, "Yes, indeed."

Hugh Redman asked, "Have you finished interviewing the director?"

"Yes, we’ve just finished. It’s your turn now," the editor said with a smile. "People are quite surprised and curious why you chose to act in ’Killing Song,’ where you aren’t the lead actor."

Hugh Redman said, "My agent told me I would regret it if I didn’t take the role, and now after filming for so long, I realize my agent was right."

He smiled and added, "Besides, I’m never just about starring in films centered around my character. Don’t say that—it wouldn’t be good if it gives everyone that impression."

The editor was clearly quite fond of such a handsome man like Hugh Redman, her eyes shining with admiration as she watched him speak.

She nodded frequently as he spoke, indicating agreement.

"How does it feel to be shooting this film?"

"It’s both surprising and exhausting. This film has a lot of running, jumping, and fighting scenes, which are very demanding physically," Hugh Redman said. "I usually keep fit, but I often find myself out of breath, so I truly admire the actresses in our movie. Their action scenes and physical demands are no less stringent than those for the male actors, and they all managed to pull through."

The editor said, "Your film has quite a few actresses from different countries and places. What impression do you have of them?"

"Oh, how should I put this? They are all very beautiful girls, and everyone is different, each with their own personality. We actors often hang out together, eat, go to bars, and sing. We all get along very well, and they are all great actresses."

"If you had to choose one of them as a girlfriend, who would you pick?"

"Oh, I won’t answer that question as I already have a girlfriend. Your question is like a bomb."

"Haha, okay, it’s a pity you didn’t fall into the trap." The editor didn’t press any further. "But if you had to choose one of them as the leading lady in your next film, who would it be? You can’t avoid answering this one, you know."

Hugh Redman appeared troubled, hesitated a bit before saying, "Of course, I’d love the opportunity to collaborate with any of them, but if I had to choose one, I’d definitely pick Zhou Yun first."

"Hmm? Isn’t she already the lead actress?"

"This time I’m mainly supporting her. If there’s an opportunity, I’d love to do a film where she supports me," Hugh Redman said, "This time it’s mostly action scenes, but if there was a movie that focused more on the relationships between characters, I think it would turn out quite differently."
