Chapter 154: Preparing for the Frost Film Festival!
The more beautiful the imagination, the harsher the reality.
To prepare for the Frost Film Festival, Edward decided to have four films start shooting simultaneously in different locations. On paper, this seemed like a perfect plan to maximize efficiency and produce multiple movies at once.

“This… Did you write this script, Senior Edward? Is this your new movie?”
Gebrun’s hands trembled slightly as he held the script, completely stunned by its contents. He stood there frozen for a long time, unable to recover from the shock.
Beside him, Chris was equally shaken. She never imagined that such a thin booklet could contain such rich and intricate storytelling. Her expression subtly shifted as she abs...
