The two men stood facing each other, looking as though they had just emerged from a brawl, their hair tousled into a mess.

They stared at each other warily, as if ready to engage in another round of combat.

Yuan Heping was perplexed, “Gentlemen, what happened to you…?”

Upon hearing him, the two foreigners turned their heads.

Their faces were smeared with dirt, and their ties and shirts were disheveled.

The director’s pupils dilated in shock, and he blurted out, “Mr. Calvin? Mr. Xia Zuo?”

Truly renowned international directors could be counted on one hand: Great Xia’s Qu Lingyun, Western Continent’s Roz, and then Calvin and Xia Zuo.

Action sci-fi movies were challenging to produce without becoming overly extravagant, but Calvin and Xia Zuo had masterfully balanced the essence of sci-fi films.

When two titans compete in the same field, that field tends to develop even more rapidly.

Although the director didn’t specialize in sci-fi, he recognized a few internationally acclaimed directors.

But their current state was quite… unexpected.

Yuan Heping’s expression changed as he scrutinized the dusty faces of the two men, his pupils constricting in surprise.

He was a fan of action sci-fi movies and the names Calvin and Xia Zuo were deeply etched in his memory, as they had dominated the sci-fi movie awards in recent years.

Having had the fortune to see them from afar during a visit to Glenn, Yuan Heping hadn’t recognized them at first in their disheveled state, as they were in proper and clean attire.

But who could explain what brought Calvin and Xia Zuo to his doorstep?!

With a snap, Yuan Heping was shattered.

The director was no less shocked.

“Mr. Yuan, hello, hello, I’m Calvin.” After shooting Xia Zuo a glare, Calvin addressed Yuan Heping, “Would you mind giving us a demonstration right now? Anything with martial arts would do. I want to see your real skill.” Xia Zuo scoffed coldly, ‘Why should he perform for you? Who do you think you

As the two renowned directors seemed on the verge of another argument, Yuan Heping quickly intervened, “No problem at all, please come in. Would you like to freshen up first?”

“No need,” declared Calvin boldly. “We’ll probably end up fighting again, so freshen up would be pointless.”

Yuan Heping and the director exchanged glances…

It seemed the rumors of discord between the two directors were indeed true.

Yuan Hepinz’s home was equipped with a varietv of weaDons.

Having acted in dramas from various eras and maintaining a regular fitness regimen, he boasted a muscular physique that rivaled many younger men, even in his sixties.

Approaching the weapon rack, Yuan Heping selected a sword, “Then I’ll just perform a little demonstration. Please excuse my modest skills.” He exhaled deeply before beginning.

The director, fully confident in Yuan Heping’s skills, watched relaxedly.

Xia Zuo focused intently on Yuan Heping, ensuring no special effects or wirework was involved, just pure physical prowess.

Calvin exclaimed, “Great Xia’s Martial Arts! This is Great Xia’s Martial Arts!

He’s flying!”

The director smirked.

LOL.

What did international directors know, having never seen the likes of this before?

“Here’s the thing, Mr. Yuan, I’ve reviewed your resume, and I believe you perfectly fit the lead role in my next film,” Calvin stepped forward eagerly, “It’s a time-travel movie, where an older and a younger version of the lead character meet. It’s hard for action movies to win at the Glenn Awards, but a Best Actor award is definitely within reach!”

“Join me, and I guarantee you’ll become the next Best Actor!”

Yuan Heping, taken aback, stuttered without managing to articulate a response, only to be interrupted by Xia Zuo placing a hand on his shoulder, “Mr. Yuan, don’t listen to his nonsense. You must star in my movie. My next project is set in an interstellar war, offering much larger scenes than his movie.”

“Your martial arts skills should be showcased to the audience. I, too, can guarantee you’ll become the next Best Actor!”

They could certainly see that Yuan Heping was not merely performing fancy but ineffective martial arts moves; he possessed genuine skill.

This was exactly what was required for an action sci-fi movie.

The reason was that international directors had largely overlooked the Great Xia Empire and they were not in need of actors.

However, both Calvin and Xia Zuo were seeking a breakthrough.

Yuan Heping perfectly met their criteria for an actor, otherwise, they wouldn’t have considered him, even if he came highly recommended by Gu Wenzhu.

“I… I need to think about it,” Yuan Heping was stunned, finding himself at a loss for words. At the age of sixty, he stuttered, “I… I haven’t decided yet, I….”
