Chapter 148 Startup

It is conceivable that after the person who was deceived was hit by the facts, he suddenly felt like the sky was falling and that a month's work was wasted.

People are so evil!

So he also went to find a scapegoat.

Gradually, everyone realized that something was wrong.

Hu Xiaoxiao is actually stronger than a man!

How is this possible?

But, this is the fact!

The only person who wasn't surprised by this was Mingxu. Although he had never arm wrestled with Hu Xiaoxiao, he often played with him and had witnessed Hu Xiaoxiao's strength. Some things were difficult for him to lift, but in Hu Xiaoxiao's hands, they were as easy as playing.

After Nie Jinlong confirmed Hu Xiaoxiao's strength, he actually went to help him find a good bow. A few days later, he borrowed a very heavy bow with an ancient aura from somewhere.

"This bow is quite old. It is difficult to pull it open without some strength." Nie Jinlong tried to pull it open, but it was very difficult. The bow itself was also very heavy.

Hu Xiaoxiao took the bow and became more and more satisfied the more he looked at it. The simple color and shape were obviously suitable for an ancient battlefield.

Moreover, this is a longbow, one and a half meters long, which is more in line with the description in the script than the shortbow prepared by the props team.

The longbow has a long range, which fits the plot in the script where Mu Guiying uses a bow to shoot the enemy leader from a long distance on the battlefield.

Even Director Ge, who doesn't understand martial arts, saw this and his eyes lit up, "This will make our play even more sophisticated."

Hu Xiaoxiao tried the longbow. With her strength, she could pull the bow to its full extent, and the effect would be perfect. The audience in front of the TV could also feel the full sense of oppression.

After mastering the longbow, Hu Xiaoxiao learned horse riding for a few days.

Everything was ready, and finally, the crew of "Mu Guiying" started filming.

On the day of the start of filming, Hu Xiaoxiao specially invited Lu Sheng to attend the opening ceremony.

Lu Sheng had long known that Qiu Lihua was planning to use the play "Mu Guiying" as a pretext to regain his fame. Lu Sheng certainly didn't want Qiu Lihua's scheme to succeed, so he strongly supported "Mu Guiying" while secretly guarding against Qiu Lihua's underhanded tactics.

It was because of Lu Sheng's close watch that Qiu Lihua failed to succeed in doing bad things secretly.

Lu Sheng specially put on a neat suit and tie and solemnly came to the start-up site.

Arriving at the set, Lu Sheng first calmly surveyed the crew and actors, noting many familiar faces as well as many unfamiliar ones.

There were unfamiliar faces in the cast. He asked around and found out that many artists he couldn't name and had never seen before were playing very important roles.

He couldn't help but be surprised by the crew's boldness. Judging from the cast, the biggest stars were only Hu Xiaoxiao and Ming Xu. The whole show depended on these two to carry the show.

Are they so confident?

He thought about how the crew of "Fan Lihua" had invited several heavyweight artists, even his second brother Wang Yiqun was invited to bring the show to life, and compared it with the crew of "Mu Guiying", he couldn't help but feel worried about the small lineup of this crew.

However, when his eyes fell on those familiar faces, he felt a little relieved.

These familiar faces are from the cast of "Mu Guiying".

Lu Sheng rarely interferes in the affairs of the production department and doesn't know much about the behind-the-scenes staff of the production department, but under such circumstances, he still feels familiar with the team of "Mu Guiying". It is conceivable that the elites of the production department are almost recruited by this drama.

Linda's elites, Charlie's elites—Hey, isn't the director Ge Songying, Linda's person? How did he see Charlie's director Shao Yitao here too?

Just when Lu Sheng was wondering, Awei came over to greet Lu Sheng, and Lu Sheng asked how there could be two chief directors in a crew.

Awei took Lu Sheng over and asked the two directors to help Lu Sheng solve his problems.

Ge Songying smiled and said, "Lu Sheng knows that I'm not good at martial arts scenes, so I specially invited Director Shao, Master Shao, to come over for guidance. Director Shao, I hope you will give me more guidance in the future. The martial arts scenes in this play are all relying on you."

Shao Yitao agreed to come and direct the martial arts scenes of this drama. In addition to the sincere invitation from Hu Xiaoxiao and Ge Songying, it was also because Hu Xiaoxiao showed him the script and called Nie Jinlong over to lobby him.

As a director, Shao Yitao couldn't refuse a good script. He had directed many martial arts dramas, but after seeing this script and hearing Nie Jinlong and Hu Xiaoxiao explain the new martial arts ideas, he was immediately attracted.

When he was filming each martial arts drama, he was always exploring and adding new things to each one, which made every TV series he filmed popular with the audience. Now that the martial arts scenes in "Mu Guiying" are so novel and he has never filmed them before, how could Shao Yitao let go of such a good opportunity to learn?

"Director Shao, if this drama is a success, you will gain experience; if it fails, you will be able to avoid such situations when filming dramas in the future. A free learning opportunity, watching others make mistakes with your own eyes, are you really not tempted at all?" This is how Hu Xiaoxiao advised Shao Yitao at the time.

In addition, his good friend Nie Jinlong kept telling him about the future of new martial arts, so Shao Yitao came.

After he came, director Ge Songying respected his ideas very much and respected him as a teacher, so Shao Yitao was more willing to come.

Director Shao said cheerfully, "We learn from each other. We all have strengths and weaknesses. Let's just exchange ideas and improve together."

Seeing that both directors were so humble and the atmosphere was so good, Lu Sheng felt that with Director Ge overseeing the drama's literary scenes and Director Shao overseeing the martial arts scenes, it could be said that the drama was halfway secured.

Next, Lu Sheng discovered that this crew had many more blasting technicians and pyrotechnicians than other crews. He was surprised and asked Hu Xiaoxiao what was going on.

Hu Xiaoxiao said: "I've seen the current special effects technology, and it's very crude, easily distracting from the performance, and doesn't convey any sense of reality. After discussing with the crew, we decided to add explosion scenes to make up for the shortcomings of the special effects."

This is also the advantage of shooting on location: you can shoot as much as you want. If you were in a studio, who would dare to shoot? Who would dare to shoot?

Hu Xiaoxiao expressed her sincere gratitude, "Thanks to President Qiu for approving so much funding for our crew, we dared to go ahead and do this. When Lu Sheng sees President Qiu, please remember to thank him for me."

Lu Sheng laughed out loud, "Of course! When I see Mr. Qiu, I'll definitely say thank you on your behalf."

When Qiu Lihua heard this thank you, he would be so happy that he would want to vomit blood.

At the opening ceremony, the crew prominently invited Lu Sheng to sit in the C position, so that Lu Sheng would feel more involved in the drama and could ask Lu Sheng for help when encountering difficulties in the future.

The opening ceremony was a complete success. After happily participating in the opening ceremony of the "Mu Guiying" crew, Lu Sheng felt more at ease and had a clear idea in his mind.

However, he was still a little worried, so he asked someone about the crew of "Fan Lihua".

After hearing this, Lu Sheng showed no expression at the time, but he became more proactive in the fight with Qiu Lihua afterwards.
