Director Kang is Song Chi's favorite and most admired director, a fact known by many.
"Eighth Heartbeat" is a project that Song Chi has been single-handedly promoting and is the one he values the most for his upcoming work.
Now is a critical time for renewal discussions with Song Chi, a time when Luo Zhiqiu can't really afford to reject Song Chi's suggestions forcefully.
"The script for this film is already quite good, hmm... Here's what we'll do, Xiao Chi, I will talk to Director Kang, but if the negotiation really doesn't work out, Liang Hengjun could also be a good directing choice as well, don't you think?"
Sure enough, Liang Hengjun is mentioned again.
Song Chi curled his lips into a smile and said, "Sister Qiu, as I said, Liang Hengjun has never directed a serious drama before; he only made fantasy, period romances, and romantic dramas. I'm not comfortable with him directing."
