After returning to Capital Star, Claire personally escorted the defected Jon to the military headquarters. After a court-martial trial, Jon was indeed imprisoned in the underground prison just like his grandfather, and he will spend the rest of his life in prison. Claire felt that instead of blowing him up with a single shot, it would be better to let him stay in prison forever. This is the harshest punishment for a proud Alpha like Jon.
Not long after the turmoil subsided, the military department officially announced the return of Major General Claire. Due to Claire's outstanding performance in supporting the Legion of Glory and suppressing the rebellion, the military department voted to promote Claire's rank to lieutenant general—Claire also became The youngest lieutenant general in the history of the empire.
At the same time, General Byron announced that Claire would be the deputy head of the Star Legion to assist his father in managing the affairs of the legion.
It's just that Claire's return from the "death and resurrection" surprised the people of the empire, and sparked heated discussions on the forum.
The military department held a press conference to announce his death before, and now it is said that Claire has returned, and the people are very dissatisfied. Luckily out of danger, we should be lucky to have him back.
There are different opinions on the forum, but the Omegas are happy to hear the news - Xi Wei's fiancé is back, he will be very happy!
Xi Wei is really happy recently. The size of the undercurrent organization is getting bigger and bigger. Many excellent Omega have found their own jobs and can make money with their own hands. They don't need to look at Alpha's face anymore. This makes Omega more confident.
Alphas are not happy, especially Omega pheromone inhibitors have been approved for legal use, which makes many Alphas can't help crying on the forum—
"My wife's estrus period is about to come, and she actually went to inject inhibitors, saying that she doesn't want to have sex with me, can she still live well!"
"That's right, what kind of inhibitor the eldest prince Xi Wei created is simply an anti-human design!"
"This is obviously depriving our Alpha of human rights!"
"My wife talks about the eldest prince every day. Damn it, I wonder if he is in love with the eldest prince."
"Can someone come and take this monster Xi Wei away?! Every day there to brainwash the Omegas, my wife has been very restless lately, she leaves early and returns late every day, and she doesn't answer when I ask him where he has been."
However, these Alphas can only grumble secretly on the forum. When they really come to their wives, they all look like loving wives and men, and they scramble to support their wives, for fear that their wives will divorce themselves if they are dissatisfied...
That's right, at the end of this year, the first Congress of the Empire passed a decree, citizens of the entire Empire, regardless of Alpha, Beta, or Omega, could freely file for divorce in court.
This proposal was proposed by the big monster Xi Wei again. The Alphas hated him so much that they cursed him silently: "Can you stop making trouble?" !
Xi Wei was in a good mood, and invited Claire to have dinner to celebrate after the proposal was passed.
The photo of the two of them sitting in a high-end restaurant for dinner made headlines in the gossip news the next day. In the photo, Xi Wei was smiling happily, while Claire was doting on him, gently peeling the shrimp shells for him. All kinds of tossing have taken the attitude of supporting the default.
This is the most turbulent year since the establishment of the empire, but most of the people in the empire are delighted with the reform of the Congress. The streets and alleys have a brand-new atmosphere, and everywhere is full of vitality.
Xi Wei was walking on the street, looking at the vibrant smiles on the faces of the people, he couldn't help but think with relief: After he came to this world, he had been expecting a change here, and now, the change has finally happened, a brand new The empire was born, and he can realize his dream without any scruples.
—He wants to be a director and make some good movies himself.
When he was an actor, he always dreamed that one day he would be able to personally make a few movies with good reputation and box office, classic movies that people can relive again and again. It's just that he didn't have such strength and opportunity at that time. Now, as the prince of the empire, he certainly doesn't have to worry about money. In addition, the world is advanced in technology, and the 3D simulation effect is extremely realistic, which is not as good as the special effect of fifty cents before. Know how much better.
With the money, the special effects, and the script, it is not a big problem for Xi Wei to write and direct himself. The most important thing now is to find photographers, makeup artists, stylists, post-editing staff, and a few reliable ones. actor.
Therefore, Xi Wei issued an announcement on the largest public forum in the empire—
Crew recruitment.
Xi Wei wrote a bunch of eloquently, encouraging talented people to recommend themselves, and welcome everyone to join his crew.
The alphas of the empire are simply not good enough. Many people are posting: Clare, can you accept him quickly! Can you let him rest for a while
Claire smiled and said, "As long as Xi Wei is happy."
Not only did he say so, but he also fully supported Xi Wei in actual actions. He also personally accompanied Xi Wei to the largest film academy in the empire, and found two very talented Beta screenwriter assistants from the director department.
Immediately afterwards, he recruited several potential designers from the All-Empire Fashion Design Competition to help Xi Wei. The person in charge of lighting, sound, etc. was also successfully found.
Claire still has military affairs to do. After helping Xi Wei find a few staff members, he temporarily left Capital Star. Xi Wei launched an open selection of movie protagonists throughout the empire, and personally took charge of the actor's interview.
There were a lot of people who came to interview for the crew audition this time. Xi Wei generously booked the entire room of the Royal Hotel for the interviewers to stay in, and booked the interview place in the most spacious conference hall on the top floor.
On the day of the interview, the meeting place was crowded with people, Xi Wei couldn't say how happy he was - in the past, someone else interviewed him, but now it's his turn to be the boss, and he has the final say on the entire crew. This kind of mood is really indescribable.
Many newcomers who came to the interview were a little afraid of Xi Wei. After all, he was His Royal Highness the Prince and heir to the leader of the Undercurrent Organization. Anyone who dared to make him angry would probably die a miserable death.
But to everyone's surprise, Xi Wei has a good temper and has no airs at all. During an interview, a girl was so nervous that her hands and feet trembled. Xi Wei went up to her to play with her, and carefully demonstrated it to her.
"Don't be nervous, imagine that you are the heroine yourself, and when you see someone you like walking towards you, that kind of happy and sweet mood will naturally be revealed from the expression and eyes." Xi Wei smiled and told the actor about the play .
The girl almost fainted when she saw the eldest prince who was in front of her seriously guiding her. She didn't expect the eldest prince to be so handsome. If he wasn't an Omega, I don't know how many people would dream of marrying him.
Although the whole day's interview was hard work, Xi Wei enjoyed it.
In fact, the Imperial Film Academy has quite a few good seedlings with potential, but people in this era don’t like watching movies very much. Even those who love watching movies will stay at home and watch the big screen, and very few go to movie theaters. The box office revenue is getting lower and lower. In order to save costs, many directors use 3D simulated characters as the protagonists to produce and shoot. Compared with the old movies before, they lack the sense of reality and even less touching things.
Xi Wei stubbornly insisted that the entire crew use real people to shoot instead of any virtual 3D images. This news undoubtedly excited the students of the Film Academy, and they worked extra hard on the day of the interview.
Xi Wei carefully screened suitable roles among tens of thousands of interviewees, and first selected a few important supporting roles, while the hero and heroine selected a few candidates for the next day's interview Second round of interviews.
In the next day's interview, Xi Wei changed the scene for several candidates, and asked the male and female protagonists to perform an inner drama after hearing about the death of their lover. It is very difficult to perform a drama without a script, and it all depends on body language and facial expressions. It is also the best way to measure a person's performance tension.
After all, immature students don't have much acting experience, and many of them performed unsatisfactorily. Xi Wei frowned and watched for a long time, but finally passed most of them helplessly.
Fortunately, although there were two students who were not good enough, they were very smart. After a little guidance from Xi Wei, they immediately caught up with the train of thought. After careful consideration, Xi Wei decided to choose these two students—the girl's name is Lily, and the boy's name is Calder. , both of them are Beta students from ordinary families, without any formal acting experience.
When Xi Wei announced the results of the audition, many people sighed unceasingly. Not only was he so bold that he wanted to personally shoot a big-budget war movie with serious themes, but he also chose two newcomers who had never heard of it as the protagonists, which was even more exaggerated. What's more, both of the people he chose were Betas!
Many people couldn't help saying on the forum: "Xi Wei is just playing around, don't take it seriously." "The eldest prince must be too boring, anyway, if he is rich and self-willed, let him play and see if he can make a good film." what kind."
Amidst the doubts from a group of people, Xi Wei calmly led the whole crew to the Fluctuating Starfield, and started filming from the first scene.
Although some planets in the empire have excellent landscapes, the natural environment is not good, and the wind and sand are very heavy. Claire felt sorry for Xi Wei's suffering, so she simply asked her father to transfer a large warship that had been retired and idled from the Star Legion to serve as Xi Wei's crew. Temporary accommodation.
With this warship, it will be much easier for Xi Wei to take the crew to other galaxies.
Although the process of making a movie was hard, Xi Wei felt very fulfilled in his heart - because this was the life he wanted most.
After getting acquainted with the crew, everyone didn't call him His Royal Highness, but called him "director", especially those young people, who admired Xi Wei and were very grateful at the same time.
If it wasn't for Xi Wei, they wouldn't have gotten such an opportunity.
Xi Wei has very strict requirements on the quality of movies. Every scene must meet his standards. Otherwise, no matter how tired he is, he will have to reshoot. However, he has a very good attitude towards actors and staff, and he never scolds. When people make mistakes, he will guide them patiently. Sometimes the actors' performances are not in place, and he even went to demonstrate in person.
Everyone was discussing in private: "Xi Wei's acting ability is really strong. If he is willing to act, he will definitely perform better than us."
"That's right, the scene he showed us yesterday was super cool!"
"But having said that, if Xi Wei really becomes a star, there will definitely be many admirers. Claire will be under a lot of pressure."
"That's right. He's just a director now, and many people in the crew have become his fans. When he really appears on the big screen, his popularity will definitely crush the current Little Heavenly King."
Everyone in the film crew admired and respected Xi Wei from the bottom of their hearts. This also led to Xi Wei's film crew working extremely efficiently. It took less than a year for the extremely difficult large-scale production of war movies, live-action performances, and on-site filming. It's finished.
The name of the movie is "Smoke Rising", and it sounds like a war theme made in a big scene. This kind of theme is not flattering, not to mention that the actors are all newcomers who have never heard of it. If it wasn't for Xi Wei as the director, it is estimated that the public would not be able to watch it. too lazy to look.
When all the media and the people of the empire were not optimistic, Xi Wei made a bold decision-this movie was released in the new year, and within a month of its release, the empire network completely banned rebroadcasting, and it was only played live in cinemas. If you want to watch it, you can buy a ticket and go to the cinema.
The media have expressed their opinions: Will the box office of this movie hit the lowest record in history
At the beginning, most people just took the attitude of watching a joke, and bought tickets to see what kind of ghost director Omega could make the movie.
result…
After watching it, 80% of people came back crying.
On the day of the movie's release, major media outlets began to give positive reviews, and many netizens said in tears that they hadn't seen such a good movie in years! It needs pictures to have a picture, and a plot to have a plot. It doesn't look like a work shot by a rookie director at all. It is comparable to the masterpiece of the most famous and veteran director in the empire!
Although the few fresh meats were not well-known, under Xi Wei's strict supervision and teaching, the effect of the performance was extraordinarily touching, and the final scene of life and death was even more tear-jerking.
The people of the empire said one after another: Xi Wei is doing well!
Claire also took the time to watch the premiere of the movie. At the end of the movie and the audience burst into applause, Claire's mood was mixed. This feeling was both proud and moved.
—Xi Wei finally had the opportunity to make the movie he wanted to make, and finally realized his desire to be a director in another era.
— That's great, Xi Wei.
——You can realize your dream, which is the most gratifying thing for Claire.
Xi Wei's movie "Smoke" was well received. In just one week, the box office broke the highest record since the establishment of the empire. The second week's box office rose still rapidly. tripled.
Xi Wei was happily counting money in the imperial palace. This movie was enough to make him a local tyrant and maximize his popularity, but he was not satisfied with the status quo. Money and fame came second. Those whimsical ideas in the film were filmed and shared with everyone.
Therefore, Xi Wei, whose first movie was a big success, started preparing for the second one.
This time, he decided to challenge a heartwarming romance film. This kind of film is very simple, and it was filmed and released in less than three months.
result…
When the movie was released at the end of the year, Xi Wei harvested a basketful of eggs and bricks, and a group of people smashed him: "How warm!" Are you kidding us?" "The big monster really has an abnormal brain circuit!" "What is Claire doing? Why don't you take him?"
After watching the premiere, Claire just smiled helplessly, thinking: The warm and loving daily life in Xi Wei's mind is probably a couple fighting side by side, right
Xi Wei, who was scolded bloody, was not discouraged, and then said that he would challenge science fiction films...
Xi Wei is always full of energy. He happily accepts praises and accepts bad reviews calmly. He only shoots the scenes he wants to shoot. He is like a lunatic when he is busy. He stays up all night and still looks good.
Everyone knows that he really likes movies.
It's just that the first movie he made was super good-looking, and the second movie was terrible. When everyone went to the cinema and saw the words "Director Xi Wei", their palms were sweating—is it good or bad this time? Do you want to take a bet
In any case, everyone knows that Xi Wei is serious about making movies, and it is rare for his movies to be pure, without any commercials, without any commercial taste, just to simply make the story he wants to tell.
If the brain circuit is normal, the filmed plot will naturally move people to tears. If the audience's thinking is inconsistent with him, then the movie they see will be as difficult to swallow as chicken ribs.
But no matter what, that was Xi Wei's truest thought.
Gradually, Xi Wei also gained a large number of fans, and some even confessed to him on the forum.
The movie directed by Xi Wei has even become a movie that the people of the empire will definitely go to the cinema to watch. Whether everyone appreciates it together or scolds it together, this is the most authentic experience, and it is a different kind that Xi Wei brings to everyone. pleasure.
At the end of the year, Capital Star held an Imperial Film Festival to review the classic films of the year.
Many big names in the entertainment industry appeared at the awards ceremony, including several directors and actors that Xi Wei had always admired. Xi Wei was also invited to attend, and a movie was shortlisted.
Xi Wei's shortlisted movie happened to be "Smoke", a suspenseful, big-budget war-themed movie, and the two leading actors were also shortlisted for the Best Newcomer Award.
At the familiar scene of the award ceremony, Xi Wei sat under the stage, looking at the more dazzling lights and more realistic 3D projection scenes on the stage than in his previous life, his mood became extremely complicated.
— He once again sat at the awards ceremony, as the director he most wanted to be.
Unsurprisingly, Lily and Calder, the leading actors of the movie "Smoke" won the Best Newcomer Award. They bowed on the podium to thank the director for his cultivation, and Xi Wei smiled happily while sitting in the audience , and gave the two thumbs up.
The final highlight is the Best Picture of the Year award.
After quickly letting go of the images of several candidate films on the big screen, a line of familiar characters finally popped up—Smoke everywhere.
Amid the warm applause from the audience, the eldest prince Xi Wei walked onto the stage with a smile and took the golden trophy from the host.
He has won many Best Actor awards, but today, he won the Best Picture award!
In the past, he just acted in other people's dramas, but this time, he wrote the script and made the movie himself. It was widely praised, hit the box office, and even created a miracle since the founding of the empire. Many statistics broke historical records!
He finally proved himself again, so what if he is an Omega? His ability is no worse than any Alpha!
After the applause paused, Xi Wei picked up the trophy, faced the camera with a smile and said, "This movie is the subject I've always wanted to shoot, and I'm very satisfied with the final effect. Here, I would like to thank everyone on the crew for their support." And hard work, this is not the credit of me alone, but the hard work of all of us! Looking forward to continuing to cooperate with you and making more good-looking movies for everyone!"
The crew in the audience were moved to tears. To meet a director like Xi Wei, everyone would feel happy no matter how tired they were.
"In addition, I would also like to thank my family for their support." Xi Wei turned his gaze to the second floor, where his father, queen mother, younger brother Xize, and Uncle Wang were sitting in the VIP room upstairs. Xi Wei waved at them with a smile. He waved his hand and said, "When I first decided to make a movie, I was afraid that my father would not agree. Fortunately, you can understand me and support me. Thank you! I love you!"
His Majesty Trande smiled and made a gesture to Xi Wei that you are great.
Xi Wei moved his gaze to the next room and found that Admiral Byron and Mrs. Grace were sitting in the next room, but Claire was nowhere to be seen. Even so, he decided to thank that person.
"There is one more person I want to thank in the end—that is my Alpha, Claire." Xi Wei said seriously to the camera, "Thank you for always being so considerate of me, and thank you for staying by my side."
As soon as the words fell, the lights of the whole venue suddenly turned on. The red colored lights quickly formed a huge heart shape, and blue fluorescent lights were also lit up on the ground floor of the long corridor in the middle. From a distance, it looked like a Fluorescent light blue ribbon.
At the end of the ribbon was a large round stage. On the stage stood a tall man. He was wearing a neat white dress. His blond hair shone with a faint luster under the light, and his blue eyes were full of brilliance. With affection, he watched Xi Wei on the podium from a distance.
—It's Claire!
"Xi Wei, although this practice is very vulgar, but..." Claire smiled slightly and said word by word, "I still want to formally propose to you here, at your favorite awards ceremony, in front of everyone .”
"..." Xi Wei stared at him blankly.
The spotlight above hit Claire's body, setting off his slender and tall figure. His deep and pleasant voice echoed throughout the venue through the amplification of the microphone. The fluorescent corridor among people, and the beautiful flowers on the carefully arranged stage...
Such an unprecedented grand marriage proposal made Xi Wei unable to recover for a while.
Even many spectators were stunned. This marriage proposal scene can almost be written into the historical records of the empire—the annual awards ceremony is big enough to accommodate 100,000 people. All lights and stages are controlled. This scene is really too spectacular !
With a smile on her face, Claire slowly walked towards Xi Wei through the long fluorescent corridor.
"Everyone knows that I am your fiancé, but I have never formally proposed to you. Today, I want to fulfill this wish and say a few words to you in front of everyone."
"To know you, to fall in love with you, and especially to be able to grow up with you in this life is a rare and lucky thing for me."
"I want to do my best to take good care of you. I want to always be by your side and never leave you."
"Not just this life, but life after life, I want to be with you."
"I love you, Xi Wei."
When she said this, Claire had already walked in front of Xi Wei, looked at her beloved with tender eyes, knelt down in front of Xi Wei on one knee, and held the ring that had been prepared before Xi Wei with both hands.
"Let's get married." Claire said softly.
On the big stage, Xi Wei held the trophy in his hand and looked down at Claire who was kneeling in front of him.
I have known each other for two lives, and he will not be absent at every award ceremony. The help and support this person has given me is beyond calculation. Even if the two came to a strange world, from the beginning, Claire has been silently by my side...
For so many years, his original intention has never changed.
How easy is it to meet such an affectionate person
At this moment, he formally proposed marriage in front of so many people at the awards ceremony, and Xi Wei had no reason to refuse.
Looking into those gentle blue eyes, Xi Wei finally smiled, stretched out his hand, rubbed Claire's head lightly, and said, "Okay, let's... get married."
Claire immediately took Xi Wei's hand, quickly put on the engagement ring, then stood up and hugged Xi Wei happily.
The moment he embraced him forcefully, Xi Wei even felt dizzy from the lights above his head. He actually agreed to be with a man, but the strange thing was that he no longer hated or rejected Claire's approach. On the contrary, I feel that the feeling of being hugged with Claire is very warm and solid.
Amid the thunderous applause from the audience, Claire leaned over and gave Xi Wei a gentle kiss.
In this way, he publicly announced to the people of the entire empire that the next leader of the Undercurrent organization, the great prince of the empire, and the talented and famous director Xi Wei, this rare Omega monster is finally his!
If he can marry Xi Wei, he is the real winner in life.
In the days to come, he will take good care of Xi Wei and cherish this hard-won happiness.
