Netizens were excited to see Su Han's Weibo post, flooding the comments section.
"Holy cow, is this Su Han's image in this drama? He looks so scary."
"He's bald, it's a bit frightening."
"I heard Su Han's character in this leads people up mountains, it's terrifying. He even killed his in-laws; the character is super peculiar."
"I heard Su Han filmed in Yangcheng for half a month, and during this time, Yang Mi stayed by his side the whole time. Those two are truly sweet."
"Su Han and Yang Mi's chemistry is just amazing, no doubt about it."
"I just want to know when this drama will air, I can't wait."
"Don't rush, take your time. Su Han also collaborated with Chen Kaige and Ge You on a movie, 'Farewell My Concubine.' 'Farewell My Concubine' hasn't been released yet, so let's hope this movie comes out soon."
"I heard 'Farewell My Concubine' was sent for an award, that's awesome."
"In a while, Su Han will also be filming 'Young and Dangerous,' I'm really looking forward to it."
The netizens were discussing fervently, engrossed in their conversation.
The next morning, Su Han woke up to find Yang Mi waiting for him with breakfast already prepared.
Yang Mi, sitting in the living room, looked up and waved at Su Han, who was standing on the second floor.
"Awake?"
"Come down quickly for breakfast."
"Aunt just made it."
Breakfast was steaming bowls of beef noodles.
"So fragrant."
Su Han followed the aroma downstairs, drawn by the enticing smell.
He took a bite of beef, then a mouthful of noodles.
He nodded in satisfaction.
"Mmm!"
"Really good."
"You posted on Weibo in the middle of the night?"
Yang Mi, while eating noodles, suddenly looked up and asked Su Han.
Su Han nodded: "Mmm."
"How was it? Was the reaction good?"
"Good. They're all urging us to ask when your drama will come out."
"This is the effect of being a star. I never thought I'd have a day where I could happily enjoy the benefits of stardom."
Yang Mi glanced at Su Han with a hint of mischief:
"Tsk! Look at you showing off."
"Oh, by the way, someone called for you earlier."
"Who was it?"
Yang Mi handed her phone to Su Han.
"I think it was from Director Tsui Hark's side."
"Tsui Hark?"
Why would Tsui Hark suddenly call me?
He's probably looking for me to act in a movie, right?
After all, being an Oscar-winning Best Actor isn't something you get for nothing.
Ever since Su Han returned from winning his Oscar, he'd been targeted by countless directors.
And Tsui Hark was one of them.
Speaking of Tsui Hark, he's no simple character.
As a Hong Kong director, he has some acquaintance with Stephen Chow.
He is also a truly remarkable director, nicknamed "Old Monster Tsui."
Su Han hadn't actually watched many of his films; the only one he had seen was 'Green Snake,' and he had to admit that 'Green Snake' possessed a very high artistic achievement, with beautiful visuals.
He made many martial arts films and Hong Kong movies.
The action crime film 'A Better Tomorrow,' the fantasy martial arts film 'Zu Warriors from the Magic Mountain,' the romantic art film 'Peking Opera Blues,' the martial arts films 'Once Upon a Time in China II,' 'Swordsman II: The East Is Red,' 'Dragon Gate Inn,' and 'Journey to the West: The Demons Strike Back' with Stephen Chow.
Then there was also 'The Battle at Lake Changjin' with Chen Kaige and others...
Old Monster Tsui is indeed quite formidable, and Su Han genuinely wanted to collaborate with him.
He didn't expect Old Monster Tsui to approach him first.
"What did he say?"
"I told him you were still resting and would call back later."
Su Han took his phone and found the phone number.
He dialed back.
Waiting...
"Beep—"
"Beep—"
"Hello? Yes, I am Director Tsui's assistant, may I ask who this is?"
"Hello, I'm Su Han."
"Ah! Mr. Su Han, hello!"
Upon knowing it was Su Han, the tone on the other end of the phone clearly changed, becoming much more enthusiastic and positive.
"Mr. Su Han, please wait a moment..."
After a short wait, someone else took over the call.
A male voice came through, sounding somewhat aged.
If Su Han guessed correctly, the man on the phone was Tsui Hark himself.
"Hello Su Han. I am Tsui Hark."
"It's like this, I'm planning to shoot a movie."
"Hello Director Tsui, what kind of movie is it?"
"Green Snake."
"The story of this movie revolves around the sisters Bai Suzhen and Fahai."
"And I want you to play the male lead, Fahai."
"Green Snake?!"
Mentioning Green Snake, he immediately thought of "Great Majestic Heavenly Dragon," and of Fahai.
Upon confirming it was 'Green Snake,' Su Han was quite excited.
Next, Old Monster Tsui continued to elaborate on the classic aspects of the film, trying hard to persuade Su Han to play the male lead.
"This film is mainly adapted from Li Bihua's novel 'Green Snake.' Like Chen Kaige's 'Farewell My Concubine,' it's also based on her novel."
"The script is completely polished and can withstand scrutiny. This story primarily takes place during the Southern Song dynasty when demons were rampant. Fahai, with the mission to enforce heavenly justice, went around subduing demons."
"Meanwhile, the Green Snake and White Snake, after cultivating for five hundred years, transformed into human form. White Snake's heart fluttered, and she fell in love with Xu Xian. These two snake spirits attracted Fahai's attention..."
