Qin Guan shook his head repeatedly. "Sister Xue, I have collaborated with him. Don’t you remember ‘Sunflower’? Do you know his opinion of me?"

"What opinion? I don't know." Sister Xue pretended to be ignorant.

Qin Guan covered his forehead helplessly. "He put his hands on my shoulders without a word, and after a long while, he said, ‘It’s a pity that you have no chance of cooperating with this generation of directors.’"

"Those were his exact words. Directors of his generation are either looking for good acting skills and hiring actors as extras, or focusing on reality and ordinary people. Those who engage in films like that are still struggling to find their way. According to Zhang Yang, I was gifted by the gods, but I have nothing in common with other actors."

"Huang Bo will be welcomed by that group. If you bring me though, I will hurt their confidence."
