Chu Yinlong could naturally see that Jiang Dao's bones should be fine. In the past, if an actor cried out in pain because of such a minor injury, he would have sneered at him.
But rational judgment is one thing, and feeling choked up when looking at the scars is another.
At this time, the assistant called and Chu Yinlong picked up the phone: "Did you find out?"
The assistant replied: "I did ask him. He has no background and is not a fan of Jiang Dao. His parents have been divorced for many years. It should be the psychological trauma left by the breakup of his family when he was a child, so he is particularly sensitive to extramarital affairs and illegitimate children."
After a moment of silence, Chu Yinlong said, "Got it. Contact the new stunt double as soon as possible, it's best not to delay the filming."
After hanging up the phone, Chu Yinlong looked at Jiang Dao.
"I'm sorry, I won't let you encounter this kind of thing again." He said seriously, "Don't worry too much, these people are a minority after all, most people won't be... so extreme."
Jiang Dao smiled and shook his head: "I'm not worried."
He is not afraid of being bullied. If he had just traveled through time and had not yet completely suppressed his anger, he would not have cared about completing the shot and would have fought back immediately and knocked down the stunt double. Even just now, if Chu Yinlong hadn't blocked it, the substitute would probably be more seriously injured than him.
He just didn't expect that the identity of an illegitimate child would be hated to such an extent.
Actually, he had thought too simply before. The world was different, and the human relationships and philosophies of dealing with things were indeed completely different. He could no longer judge according to the rules he learned from the end of the world. He hadn't paid much attention when he was investigating his own background, but now it seems... he'll have to put in more effort after the filming of the movie is finished.
However, his first priority is to finish filming the movie first, and then consider other things after it is completed.
The two of them didn't say a few words before Chu Yinlong was called away by the stylist to do his makeup for a temporary shoot.
Seeing Chu Yinlong leave, Jingyu moved to Jiang Dao's side and sat down on a chair beside him.
"Is your arm okay?" he asked with concern. "I saw that guy kicked really hard, and he failed several times. No wonder even Teacher Chu couldn't stand it."
Jiangdao openly showed him the bruises on his arm.
Jing Yu hissed, "The wound is so severe, it's all blue!"
"Serious?" Jiang Dao laughed, "You call this a serious injury?"
This little bruise cannot be called an "injury" on the battlefield. If you bump into something at home, you will also get a bruise. How come it becomes a wound on the set?
Jing Yu was puzzled: "Isn't this heavy?"
At last, he sighed again, not knowing what he was thinking of: "That's right, I guess in Teacher Chu's eyes this isn't a serious injury. If you ask for leave because of this, he might even scold you..."
Jing Yu was talking to himself when his assistant Xiao Yang returned to the set and went straight to Jiang Dao.
"Xiaodao," he leaned over and whispered in Jiangdao's ear, "the boss asked me to take you to the hospital."
The assistant's voice was very soft, and no one else on the set could have heard it, but Jingyu was sitting next to Jiang Dao and heard it clearly.
So the words he hadn't finished speaking were suddenly stuck, his eyes widened and his face was full of disbelief.
Although he felt that going to the hospital was an overreaction, Jiang Dao still did not refuse Chu Yinlong's kindness and left the set with his assistant.
Jing Yu sat alone on the sidelines, stunned for a while, and took out his phone to search: Chu Yinlong scolding young hunk.
He found the video he had seen before, watched it again carefully, and finally confirmed - yes, Teacher Chu did scold an actor who asked for leave to go to the hospital to see a doctor for a scratch, and his words were quite harsh, as if he had no sympathy at all.
Compare this with Chu Yinlong's attitude towards Jiang Dao just now, and his behavior of sending his assistant to take Jiang Dao to the hospital...
Hiss, something is wrong...
If we think about the previous scandal, Mr. Chu didn't fight back directly like he did in the past. Moreover, Mr. Chu was so fierce, but Xiaodao was not afraid of him at all. Oh, by the way, when the martial arts substitute bullied Xiaodao just now, Mr. Chu personally went on the field to stop him...
Also, Mr. Chu once invited Jiang Dao to his room to watch a variety show. Uh, that variety show was recorded by them themselves, and the interaction in it was also very loving...
And, Jiang Dao's lips were bitten, it was like -
Jing Yu's eyes widened suddenly, and he turned his head abruptly, looking towards the dressing room in disbelief, then turned his head back quickly.
Did he discover something extraordinary?
No, it can't be true!
…
After leaving the private hospital and sending Jiang Dao back to the hotel to rest, assistant Xiao Yang returned to the set and waited for Chu Yinlong to finish a shoot before reporting back.
"After taking an X-ray, his arm is fine. The doctor said he just needs to keep taking the medicine for the next two days, and after two days he can apply hot compresses to disperse blood stasis." He paused, then added, "He has created a VIP medical record with Doctor Mu, so he can see the doctor anytime in the future."
Chu Yinlong said "hmm" and asked, "Have you found a new replacement?"
The assistant nodded: "Secretary Zhang has already contacted him and will be here tomorrow morning. We have done a comprehensive background check this time, so the previous incident will not happen again."
Chu Yinlong nodded, his tone indifferent: "As for the one before, don't look for him for future TV series and movies invested by Longqi. Also say hello to Director Mu, Director Zhu, and Director Zhuang."
Hearing this, the assistant pursed his lips.
In today's entertainment industry, almost all action movies and martial arts dramas are invested by Longqi Entertainment. The three directors are also giants in the action and martial arts world. In recent years, nearly 80% of film and television dramas containing action and martial arts elements are produced by these three people.
If Long Qi and these directors refuse to hire him, the stuntman will probably have a hard time making a living.
"Boss, isn't it a bit... dangerous to kill him all?" the assistant pondered, "If he gets killed, it might be... bad for Jiang Dao."
After hearing the first half of the sentence, Chu Yinlong still had a cold expression on his face, but when the assistant finished speaking, he frowned slightly.
After a moment of silence, he finally gave in: "Okay, I don't care whether Longqi's investment project uses him or not. I'll personally greet the directors."
"By the way," Chu Yinlong paused and ordered, "You and Xiao Zhang should work hard to help me find a new assistant."
Xiao Yang's face turned pale: "...Boss?"
Chu Yinlong raised his eyebrows and continued, "You will follow Jiang Dao from now on. His life experience is a bit complicated. I don't trust him to handle it by himself, and I can't be with him all the time. I can only trouble you to pay more attention to him and respond to any situation in time."
Xiao Yang breathed a sigh of relief and agreed solemnly.
…
The next day, a new stunt double arrived and filming of Jiang Dao's scenes resumed.
This time, the filming process went very smoothly. The pursuit and close combat were all done in one take. The part in the corridor where we made use of the scene terrain and props was only NGed once, and that was because the props were not placed steadily and fell down, affecting the shot.
Fighting scenes are very physically demanding, so Chu Yinlong arranged plenty of rest time.
Jiang Dao was pulled by the stylist to wash his face and touch up his makeup, preparing to shoot a few close-up shots of the fight with Jing Yu.
Chu Yinlong sat behind the camera, discussing the footage with the assistant director and cameraman.
At this time, the new stand-in came forward without any hesitation and greeted him with a smile: "Brother Long, how is it? Is the effect okay?"
Chu Yinlong stood up and nodded at him: "Not bad."
Shi Lu smiled and said, "After all, I am a veteran. Unfortunately, after I recovered from my injury, you never looked for me again. I thought you had forgotten me."
Chu Yinlong said, "I saw you filmed two web dramas later, and you appeared in both dramas. I thought you wanted to change and stop being a stand-in. I didn't expect that Xiao Zhang contacted you."
"I didn't expect you were still paying attention to me." Shi Lu chuckled, "I really don't want to be a stand-in anymore."
Without waiting for Chu Yinlong to say anything, he added: "However, I am happy to be your stand-in in your movie... I can't repay you for saving my life, so if there is a chance to 'return my body to you', I will definitely grab it."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a loud noise not far away.
Chu Yinlong frowned and turned his head, just in time to see Jing Yu awkwardly picking up the props that had fallen to the ground by the wall, and apologized to the few people with a smile: "I'm sorry! I kicked it accidentally! Sorry, sorry!"
Having said that, he ran away.
Chu Yinlong withdrew his gaze and looked at Shi Lu's face.
After a moment, he said, "You don't have to report anything. I didn't save you to kidnap you to be my stunt double. If anyone else was in danger, I would save them too. Don't worry about it."
Shi Lu shook his head: "It's your business whether you save people or not, and it's my business whether I'm grateful or not."
Chu Yinlong sighed helplessly and said nothing more.
On the other side, Jiang Dao changed into clean clothes, fixed his hairstyle and put on makeup, and just came out of the dressing room when Jing Yu pulled him into the corner.
"Xiaodao, I have something to tell you!" Jingyu said nervously, "Look, do you see that new stunt double?"
Jiang Dao leaned forward suspiciously and glanced at the director's seat: "Yeah, I saw it, what's going on?"
Jing Yu's tone was mysterious: "Don't you think he is too close to Teacher Chu?"
Jiangdao: ...
Jiang Dao was speechless: "What are you doing? Haven't you had enough of the melons from the past few days? Do you want to eat new ones?"
Jing Yu was immediately anxious: "I'm not lying to you. Just now when I was helping to move the props, I heard him tell Teacher Chu that he wanted to pledge himself to me! Aren't you worried?"
Jiang Dao looked confused: "What am I worried about?"
Not worried, but definitely a little curious.
So he leaned over and took a closer look at the stunt double, and thought to himself - I didn't expect that Chu Yinlong, who looked like a veteran cadre, was quite likable. But why did you hire a man? Could it be that, due to the setting of this book, there are a lot of homosexuals in the world of the book?
So... why did Jing Yu suddenly care about the people around Chu Yinlong? Could it be...
Jiang Dao turned around, looked at Jing Yu inquiringly, and directly hit a straight ball: "You pay so much attention to Teacher Chu, you don't like him, do you?"
"How is that possible!" Jing Yu immediately broke out in a cold sweat, "Absolutely not! I promise you! I am a straight man who likes cute girls! I will never compete with you for Teacher Chu!"
Jiangdao:?
What are you talking about? It's getting weirder and weirder.
Jiangdao sighed and touched Jingyu's head lovingly.
Look how tiring this shoot is. Even a good kid is exhausted.
…
Not far away, Chu Yinlong raised his head and inadvertently glanced at the glass at a corner outside the dressing room. From the reflection, he saw Jiang Dao rubbing Jing Yu's head with his hand, appearing to be extremely intimate.
He slapped the table and announced loudly: "Assemble, prepare to shoot!"
