The conference room and the dorm near the outdoor shooting range were temporarily built plastic houses with poor sealing jobs. When there was strong wind outside, there was a small wind inside. Even when they were indoors, people wore coats or jackets to keep warm.

Feng Xuan's assistant knocked on the door and came in, leading Zhang Zian and Old Yang into the room. Famous followed behind them.

”Director Feng, here they are,” the assistant said before he left.

The heat was on in the room, but due to the frequent coming and going of personnel, it wasn't quite warm. Feng Xuan was still wearing the same green military coat he wore when he visited the police dog training base, and was sitting across a middle-aged man in a dark, blue jacket.

”Zhang, Old Yang. Let me introduce you to Xu Gang, the outreach producer.” Feng Xuan continued the introductions, ”This is Zhang Zian, the chief dog trainer hired by our crew, and the owner of the dog who plays Lightning. This is Master Yang who is temporarily transferred from the police dog training base. He has spent more than twenty years at the base and has prior dog training experience.”

Xu Gang looked sleepy, beaten by the weather, and his hair seemed like it hadn't been washed for a few days, but he managed to get up with an effort and shake hands with Zhang Zian and Old Yang.

”Hello, just call me Gang Zi.” Xu Gang's tone was very straightforward, like a person who didn't pay much attention to trivial formalities. He said to Zhang Zian, ”Zhang, we've never met before, but I've heard good things. Your Famous is very impressive. I was worried that the shooting process would not go smoothly if the protagonist was played by another dog. Everyone in the film industry knows that the hardest objects to shoot are animals and children. Especially animals because of their disobedience.”

”Thank you,” Zhang Zian said honestly, ”I'm not talented. Famous is just intelligent.”

Xu Gang thought Zhang Zian was being humble, so he laughed.

Feng Xuan said from the side, ”Zhang, before you joined the crew, Gang Zi went to the Western region with the outdoor scenery team, which is why you've never met.”

Xu Gang nodded and said, ”The title 'outreach producer' sounds fancy, but I'm just doing odd jobs. I went to the west this time to find props.”

He glanced at Feng Xuan and said meaningfully, ”Fortunately, apart from getting tanner, I found the props we need.”

Zhang Zian was intrigued, what props needed to be found in the west?

”Well done, Gang Zi,” Feng Xuan encouraged him, ”Go to the hotel to rest, and come back to report for duty after you've had enough sleep.”

Xu Gang said with a bitter smile, ”You don't need to tell me twice, I do need a good rest. The altitude sickness almost killed me.”

Feng Xuan joked a little more with Xu Gang before he stopped smiling and said to Zhang Zian seriously, ”Zhang, have you read the script yet?”

”Yes,” Zhang Zian immediately replied.

Feng Xuan asked him this question everyday, and he always gave the same answer.

Zhang Zian had read the script many times. When he first got the script, he read it in its entirety several times.Now, he read the parts that were to be filmed each day before shooting. He could almost recite every word of the script.
