  "I hope to present a work that catches people's attention in the National Day literary and artistic performance, so as to attract the attention of the two directors. Do you understand, Sun Zesheng?"

  Zhang Li hid behind his sunglasses a pair of beautiful eyes, locking onto Sun Zesheng unwaveringly.

  Sun Zesheng nodded, "ok, I understand. But if I'm not mistaken, didn't Xu Yunjin agree to let you be the female lead in her movie? Now you're eager to act in those two directors' films, aren't you afraid of a conflict between the two?"

  Zhang Li said bluntly: "Xu Yunjin has not yet finalized the movie script, and she will not buy your movie script at your price for the time being. When she makes a final decision, it's hard to say when that will be."

  Besides, it's not that I doubt Xu Yunjin's abilities. She can only be considered to have one foot in the entertainment industry at most. Whether it's fame or influence, she can't compare to those two directors. If there's a conflict in the end, I think I'll choose to cooperate with those two directors."

  Sun Zesheng chuckled and said, "You're indeed straightforward, saying whatever you want without fear of hurting Xu Yunjin's feelings."

  Zhang Li said, "If I say something that goes against my heart, you'll have to believe it too. Sun Zesheng, are you willing to help me? Give me a short and concise script, so I can perform it at the National Day literary performance."

  Sun Zesheng shook his head, "The National Day literary and artistic performance can give you at most ten or twenty minutes of performance time. You're not a sketch actor, wanting to grab the audience's attention in such a short time, relying on gimmicks, not your own performing skills. Let me come up with a short and concise situational drama for you, I'm powerless."

  Zhang Li hastily said: "Even you can't think of a way, what should I do? Who should I rely on? Sun Zesheng, since you can write such an excellent movie script, you must have the ability to help me. Please don't refuse me, okay? If it's about money, just name your price, and I won't haggle."

  Zhang Li was also desperately seeking medical treatment and couldn't find anyone else who could help her without having ulterior motives for her body, except for Sun Zesheng.

  Of course, this is not to say that all the people who can help Zhang Li want her body, but rather she is just a student in school and has not yet gained recognition from famous directors, so her scope of contact is relatively narrow. Among the limited number of people she can come into contact with, she cannot tell who has desires for her and who does not.

  Sun Zesheng smiled and said, "Don't be impatient, I didn't say I wouldn't help you."

  "You're willing to help me, that's great." Zhang Li obviously let out a sigh of relief, her slender hand patted her chest, the thin clothes on top, the arc-shaped bulge trembled violently, making one's mouth dry and tongue parched. "Quickly tell me, what kind of script have you prepared this time?"

  Sun Zesheng shook his head, "Forget the script. I'm not a god, having just written one script, how can I possibly write another one in such a short time?"

  His words are mostly perfunctory. There are thousands of movies in Tianji Star 3000, and as long as Sun Zesheng is willing, there will be countless movie scripts. He just doesn't want to attract attention.

  "What am I supposed to act without a script?" Zhang Li asked.

  "Have you ever thought of singing? Your appearance is good, your voice has a lot of character, and in a National Day arts performance like this, if you can sing a good song, it will be more eye-catching than performing a short play that may not grab people's attention." Sun Zesheng said his analysis.

  "Sing a song? Can I do it? Besides, you're not a professional composer, can you write that kind of overnight sensation song?"

  Sun Zesheng smiled bitterly: "Zhang Li, what do you mean by this? Are you trying to strike me down or look down on me?"

  "Please don't misunderstand, I really didn't mean it that way. To be honest, among people of the same age, I think you're the most trustworthy. Really, otherwise, I wouldn't have looked for someone else and only looked for you."

  Sun Zesheng smiled wryly and shook his head, "I won't bother with you anymore. Did you bring a pen and paper? If so, hand them over to me."

  Zhang Li hastily took out a palm-sized notebook and a pink round pen from her bag, "Will this do?"

  Sun Zesheng nodded and took over the notebook and ballpoint pen, then began writing in the notebook with his head down.

  In his previous life, Sun Zesheng had a certain amount of musical knowledge and was also a music enthusiast who had memorized many scores. Moreover, even if he were musically illiterate in his past life, with the 3000 heavenly songs stored in Tianji Star 3000, it would be as simple as bending down to pick up something to have Tianji Star 3000 transcribe them.

  Sun Zesheng didn't know if Zhang Li understood staff notation, he used numbered musical notation instead. Soon, he had written down a complete song and handed it to Zhang Li.

  "Take it and see if it's suitable for you." Sun Zesheng handed the notebook with song lyrics and scores to Zhang Li.

  Zhang Li hesitantly accepted the notebook, her major was in acting, but she had also received considerable vocal training, without being particularly talented or skilled, and she couldn't get into the performance department of Yanjing Film Academy.

  "'Love is like a tide?' Zhang Li murmured out the song's name. 'This song sounds just like Zhang Xin Zhe's "Love is like a tide"'"

  "Don't just look at the song's name, take a look at its specific content. Hum it yourself." said Sun Zesheng.

  Zhang Li first read through the entire song, and at that moment her eyes lit up. In order to see more clearly, she simply took off her sunglasses, revealing her face full of ancient Greek beauty, radiating a captivating charm.

  "Hmm..." Zhang Li hummed softly, soon becoming immersed in the atmosphere of the song.

  After a few minutes, Zhang Li hummed the entire song. She raised her head and looked at Sun Zesheng with sparkling eyes, "This song is really great! Sun Zesheng, how did you think of it? I love it so much."

  Sun Zesheng smiled, how can it be bad? This is a classic song that has been tested by later generations and was once popular. "You think it's great, that's good."

  Zhang Li hummed the tune again, "Sun Zesheng, I don't know if I'm misunderstanding or not? This song, how come it feels like it was tailor-made for your love story? The two are simply a perfect match. If that story were to be made into a movie and paired with this song, it would at least add 30% more flavor."

  Sun Zesheng gave a thumbs up and gestured to Zhang Li.

  Zhang Li's guess is correct, this song is indeed the theme song of that movie. Zhang Li was able to think of this, proving that she still has some brains and isn't a brainless woman with big breasts.
