Chapter 112
"Remember our Director Huan's style of doing things? He never holds grudges overnight because he hits them right in the face. The haunted house is also our Xinghuo's. Anyone who understands will understand."
"I pat the three idiots with my heart. Silly children, please stop being stubborn."
"The more I look at it, the more f*cking scared I get. It's terrifying when I think about it!"
"This fear won't go away overnight. These past few days, I've been paranoid. I can't look in the mirror. I have a PTSD around red clothes. Every time I hear a knock on the door, my heart skips a beat. I don't know when this will subside."
"Wow, wow, it left a shadow on my childhood. When I was eleven, I secretly watched the older brothers' live broadcast in the middle of the night. I dreamed that I was being chased by a ghost bride and ghost children. I wet the bed..."
"Ah, this, I'm heartbroken and giving a hug to the kid upstairs. This isn't just a childhood trauma, it's a lifelong dark history. Also, it's wrong for kids to stay up late and watch movies. Kids, don't learn from this! Although I almost got scared and ended up with a dark history as an adult."
There was also another Samsung fun that people enjoyed watching.
"Will you dare to go to a haunted house again?"
The answer is of course yes.
Go, you must go, although it looks really scary, it is also really tempting!
Listen, what a beautiful scream.
Of course, the normal mode is enough, and only true warriors dare to challenge the highest difficulty.
Also, when will Director Huan’s new drama be released?
Those who do archaeology all know that Director Huan is very hardworking and very fond of his fans.
Before Haotian and Youtian merged, Director Huan released movies, TV series, variety shows, and promotional videos one after another.
They, the Yantian people, also want it.
The requirements are not high.
Even a short shadow will do.
And also.
@Qin Shao @Qin Qiang Real Estate, have you considered opening a few haunted houses on Yantian Star? Cangtian Star is still too far away and not very convenient to get to, especially since tickets are so hard to get.
Let’s give them more Chinese horror shocks.
Regarding the idea of Yan Tianxing’s friends who go to the tiger mountain even though they know there is a tiger there, the other three-star viewers said: Well, it’s not difficult to understand.
It's like even though they are afraid, they are still eager to grab the tickets.
Of course, even if we go to the haunted house, the easiest one will be enough, and it should be a group tour of more than ten people, just to experience the atmosphere. Any more will not be enough.
On the Internet, some professors have also published many discussions and reflections on the various tragedies caused by Chinese terror and the oppression of the feudal system left by our ancestors.
Huan Xu also supports this dialectical view and criticism of the dregs.
The good things of our ancestors need to be promoted, and we should also learn to distinguish and examine the bad things of our ancestors. The river of time flows unceasingly, and later generations are both inheritors and screeners.
Take the essence and discard the dross.
This is both a respect for historical wisdom and a responsibility for future development.
As for Yantian's fans' urging for updates, Huan Xu was naturally prepared.
Just like before Yan Tianxing joined, he had two ideas. Now that Chinese horror has come to a successful conclusion, the other Huan Xu also has an idea and is preparing to shoot another "exciting" documentary.
But at the moment we have encountered a problem which is neither big nor small, and that is the choice of the male lead.
Fortunately, Huan Xu still had plenty of time. Before the documentary officially began filming, he also needed to make some other preparations, including personally visiting several filming locations for field research.
This is a real folk song collection! It’s definitely not another holiday for myself.
One of the filming locations was the vast snow-capped mountains of Xuantian Star. During the business trip, it wouldn't be considered as slacking off if he met with Mr. Tang, who had always invited him to take him to appreciate the beautiful scenery and customs of Xuantian, right?
The audience of Yantianxing was crying out for information online, until someone posted a photo of Huan Xu in casual clothes at the airport.
The audience of Yantianxing: ???
In a short time, the people of Yantian Star had pushed the entry to the forefront. The topic was filled with conspiracy theorists and viewers from other stars who were eager to watch the fun and stir up trouble.
Yantian Starman: "Director Huan doesn't like me anymore, does he?"
Yantian Star People: "Director Huan, please love us again. If there is anything we did wrong, can't we fix it? Director Huan, please come back and film!"
You Tianren started out as a typical green tea: "Not every star is Director Huan's sweetheart. Everyone has their own preferences. Director Huan likes us, and there's nothing we can do about it. Taste and aesthetics are things you can't learn or change."
Cang Tianren: "Say it again, Director Huan is from our planet!"
Haotian people: "Pat Yantian's shoulders, at least you still have a guaranteed film. So, call me brother, and when Director Huan has some free time in the future, for example, after shooting an art film, we brothers will help you ask Director Huan to shoot another exciting one, okay!"
Listen, how cruel he is, he just wants to push Yantian to the fourth position.
Director Huan said in an interview that he had loved her, but they didn't care. Even if it was in the past, they still wanted to be Director Huan's favorite. The new Yantian people found every possible way to press the button!
Huan Xuguang received Ye Qian's gloating reminder on his brain, and before the matter escalated further and several celebrities staged a large-scale palace fight on the Internet, he quickly posted a new update to clarify:
"Thank you all for your love. I didn't take any holidays, really. All of this was done to prepare for the new work in the summer.
Yes, a master of balancing acts must treat everyone equally!
Seeing Director Huan’s reply, the happiness of the summer people returned.
"La la la la, so happy, we love Director Huan, and Director Huan loves us."
Fans of Cangtian, Youtian and Haotian bit the corners of their quilts and cried. It was so unbalanced when they thought that after the merger of the nine stars, Director Huan would break them into nine petals and distribute them equally. They really wanted to hide Miracle Huanhuan at home and let him concentrate on making films that suit his own taste. Damn it!
Huan Xu had just come out of the airport when he saw Tang Peiyu waving excitedly at the airport entrance from afar.
As soon as they met, the child enthusiastically grabbed the suitcase that Huan Xu was carrying, without giving him a chance to refuse.
Mr. Tang also laughed and said, "Let this naughty boy take it. It's a good opportunity to give him something to do."
Huan Xu smiled and said, "Didn't you say there's no need to come pick me up at the airport? I can go there myself. Why are you and Xiao Tang here? How can the martial arts gym handle it?"
Mentioning the martial arts gym, he recalled the group of young men who were training there. Elder Tang couldn't suppress a smile. "Those guys have Senior Brother leading them, so it's not a big deal. When we heard you were coming, we almost formed a group to climb over the wall to meet you at the airport. Now they're being punished by me by standing still."
The old man put his hands behind his back and snorted softly: "How can it be the turn of those brats!"
Huan Xu: ...Actually, there’s really no need to be so troublesome.
Immediately afterwards, Huan Xu was warmly received by Mr. Tang.
Not only Mr. Tang, but also several other martial arts school owners who shared the same ideals as Mr. Tang prepared a welcoming banquet for Huan Xu in a private room of Xuantianxing Restaurant. Mr. Tang hosted the banquet and prepared a welcome banquet for Huan Xu.
The old men were more enthusiastic than each other. They held Huan Xu's hands and thanked him for his contribution to the development and inheritance of the culture of his home planet.
In the small circle, Mr. Tang’s inheritance mainly focused on palm techniques. The other old men present here used some boxing techniques, some practiced kicking techniques... but before, their situations were no better than Mr. Tang’s, and some were even worse.
At least Mr. Tang still has Tang Peiyu as his successor, and Xiang Hai, his adopted son and eldest senior brother, as his heir.
Grandpa Sun from the boxing gym couldn't help but raise his hand to wipe his eyes when he talked about his sad feelings.
Compared to Mr. Tang, Mr. Sun had already lost his heart and had quietly taken down the sign of the martial arts school a few years ago.
He had originally wanted to guard the martial arts school passed down to him by his master and try his best to live a few more years. At least, while he was alive, there would still be people who would remember this inheritance and the glory that once belonged to Drunken Fist.
However, even this wish was almost not realized. Not only did the unfilial son not support or understand him, he even wanted to cheat him out of the ownership of the martial arts school and sell the deed to the martial arts school passed down to him by his master.
"Alright, Old Sun, everything is in the past. Today is a happy day for Director Huan, so don't talk about the unhappy things."
"Alas, I'm confused again. Seeing that I've only said things that spoil the fun, I'll punish myself with three cups of wine. Director Huan, thousands of words have been reduced to just two words: thank you!"
Huan Xu quickly reached out and picked up the wine glass: "I don't deserve it, this is what I should do."
Unexpectedly, before Huan Xu could pick up the wine glass, Mr. Qian next to him raised his hand and gently pressed Huan Xu's hand.
"The old man can drink well, so let him drink. Young people don't need to drink so much. Drinking is harmful to the body."
Old Master Sun also regained his cheerfulness and laughed: "Yes, Old Qian is right. Come, I'll do it, you don't have to follow!"
"This is our Xuantian Star's specialty grape juice. If you want to drink it, drink it with Xiao Tang. It's good for your health."
Huan Xu: ...
Huan Xu compared his age with that of the old man opposite him. Drinking alcohol is harmful to the body, so it is okay to let him drink grape juice. The problem is that at the old man's age, drinking is no more harmful to his health than it is to him.
As if sensing Huan Xu's confusion, Elder Tang chuckled and said, "Despite their age, these old fellows are in excellent health."
Keeping fit is not just talk.
Although they were in good health before, they had no hope in life and looked sick and listless. Now they are much better, just like old trees in spring, full of energy all day long.
"I won't fall unless I pass on all my skills to the next generation."
"Right, Lao Kong?"
Opposite Mr. Tang, Grandpa Kong, who had been sitting in a wheelchair with a smile on his face, was suddenly called. In front of Huan Xu's surprised gaze, he suddenly stood up and performed the opening moves of his sect.
Mr. Tang said, "Old Kong uses his legs. He got sick a while ago and is now in a wheelchair. We all thought we would never be able to spar together again."
"Who would have thought that after the release of 'Man Jiang Hong', his small martial arts school in a remote city would be nearly overwhelmed by visitors who came to visit him. Of course, in addition to those who came to visit, there were also some who came to challenge him for the sake of traffic, spread by unscrupulous media."
"After hearing about it, Old Kong was worried and sneaked back to the martial arts gym from the rehabilitation center. Then he saw his granddaughter knock the provocateur to the ground in front of everyone. Excited, Old Kong stood up from his wheelchair, and then we were able to spar together again."
Seeing Huan Xu's surprised expression, the old men all laughed out loud: "Hahaha, Director Huan, don't disbelieve me. Although we were also quite surprised at the time, this is a true story and it is definitely not a lie. Because of this, Old Man Kong now has more disciples than any of us."
Huan Xu: "...It's really surprising. It can be considered a medical miracle, right?"
Mr. Kong waved his hands quickly and sat back in his wheelchair. "Don't listen to their nonsense. Although I can move now, I can't kick anymore. But fortunately, our Sasha has surpassed me. I can retire before these old guys."
As for the apprentices mentioned by the old fellows, Mr. Kong was at a loss for words: "I've been moving all my life, but when I stop, I feel uncomfortable all over. I can't kick my legs like this anymore. Practicing Tai Chi in the park every day to relax my muscles and activate my blood circulation is not bad..."
Gradually, Mr. Kong didn't know how he became the leader of the "force". In addition to the old men and women, some young people and children have recently mixed into the team.
Although it is not his own martial art, Tai Chi is also the most classic part of the traditional martial arts of the mother planet, and the Five Animal Exercises itself is also an important health-preserving exercise. Everyone likes it, so there is no reason for him to refuse it.
I don’t know which young person filmed his movements and posted them on Star Network. Even the young person himself didn’t expect that the number of reposts of this video would increase. Coupled with the "miracle" of Master Kong, Master Kong became very popular.
Seeing this, the little granddaughter Sasha even started a live broadcast for the old man. It turns out that there are actually quite a few fans waiting in front of the Star Network every day to practice "Kung Fu" with Master Kong.
Even though Master Kong emphasized several times that Tai Chi was just an exercise and that their current level of practice could not help people open up their Dantian and Qi Sea, he still couldn't stop everyone's enthusiasm.
Master Kong shook his head helplessly. "I've seen this more than once. Young people claim to have sensed the presence of 'Qi' during their practice, and many others swear they've 'stepped onto the threshold of enlightenment'!"
"This is just a joke. Young people nowadays lack exercise. Tai Chi helps them stretch their bodies. It must be effective, but it's not what they think. Hey, I'm worried that someone will think I'm a scammer."
Master Kong is so old that he doesn't have much idea about becoming famous. It was his granddaughter who created an account for him. Her starting point was to find something for her grandfather to do, so that he would have more motivation and continue to attract traffic to Guwu.
What Master Kong is worried about now is that some young people will really believe it, and if they can’t find the Qi Hai later, they will regard them as scammers.
He was not afraid of anything else, but he was afraid of bringing bad reputation to Gu Wu, who had finally been seen by people.
Although the ancient martial arts in reality cannot achieve the sky-shattering and earth-shattering, or void-breaking punches like the characters in the stories, they still have their own charm and power. The old man can responsibly say that after persistent training of the ancient martial arts, the true descendants are no weaker than the top fighting methods today!
The problem is that this requires years of persistence and training day after day. It is impossible for apprentices to succeed in a few days, months, or even one or two years.
On the way here, Xiao Tang shared this incident with Huan Xu as an interesting story. Huan Xu flipped through the posts and could tell that most people on the Internet were just making fun of it.
Not only netizens, but even Huan Xu did not expect that Mr. Kong would be so seriously worried about being regarded as a liar.
Perhaps the more you care, the more nervous and worried you become.
Huan Xu's eyes swept over the group of elderly people, including Grandpa Tang, who still had some hope for him even though he had been deceived by the director in the past.
Grandpa Kong, who was dying, sat up in shock and led everyone to keep fit, but was also worried about misleading the young people.
There is Grandpa Sun, who sticks to the martial arts school passed down to him by his master and is willing to cut off contact with his children in order to keep his promise.
There are also other elderly people who have the same stories. They have spent many nights tossing and turning for ancient martial arts. Although they are old, they still persist, stay strong, and burn themselves for the inheritance.
Huan Xu thought that he could actually do something for these sincere and pure old people and for ancient martial arts.
For a director, his work is his best words and expression.
Huan Xu comforted Mr. Kong, then said with a smile, "Actually, I have something else I'd like to ask of you."
Without even listening to what Huan Xu was asking, several old men started pounding their chests.
Old Master Tang's eyes became fierce and he rolled up his sleeves: "Did someone bully you?" He looked like he was ready to fight someone to the death.
Several other old men also rushed to speak up and responded: "No matter what, we will go through fire and water and die without hesitation."
Huan Xu: ...
Huan Xu tried to comfort them quickly. Not to mention that everything was fine, even if something was wrong, he would not dare to ask the old men to help him fight. Otherwise, Huan Xu did not even know whether he should worry about the old men's own health or the enemies who would face the old men's iron fists.
Huan Xu quickly said, "It's like this. Before I came to Xuantian Star, I had some ideas for a new work, and the genre is also related to ancient martial arts. Since we met this time, I wanted to invite a few old gentlemen to help me."
Huan Xu did not say that this was an idea he had just come up with, nor did he want to put any psychological burden on the old gentlemen, so he used a tone that seemed to ask for their help.
Several old men looked at each other, and when they heard that it was Huan Xu's new work, their eyes lit up.
"Is it like Man Jiang Hong?"
"I've already played Man Jiang Hong many times. Old Tang has been showing off to us before. Can we participate this time too? That's great!"
"Director Huan, you're not asking us for help, you're clearly here to help us."
How could these old people not know how great an impact it would have if Director Huan really wanted to make a film about them?
However, none of them wanted to bring it up or make a request. It was because they were content with just having a copy of "Man Jiang Hong". One should not be too greedy. Director Huan was willing to help them before because their efforts were finally noticed. How could they be so shameless as to ask for more?
Therefore, when Huan Xu mentioned it, especially when he used the words asking them for help, these old gentlemen were not only surprised, but also more moved.
Although Xuantian Star has not merged yet, they also know some news about Director Huan from people who frequently travel to other galaxies. Director Huan is very busy now. Every time a new planet merges, Director Huan will shoot a new type of film to welcome it. Director Huan has now officially started his journey to become a god.
At this moment, Yantianxing had just been merged, Director Huan had just shot a horror film, and a new work was in preparation. This time, in addition to accepting the invitation from Mr. Tang, he also wanted to inspect the filming location of the new film.
According to the genre of Man Jiang Hong, films of similar style should be more suitable for Xuan Tianxing. Although the old men are sometimes straightforward and even stubborn, they are not ignorant of the ways of the world. This film should be a special help from Huan Xu.
Even if the related types of films are shot to welcome the subsequent merger of their Xuantian Star, they do not necessarily have to be related to ancient martial arts. They believe in Director Huan's ability. As long as the works are shot by Director Huan, they will definitely be welcomed and loved by the audiences of their own star, just like the other planets that have already merged.
But Director Huan still remembered them, took them with him, and even wanted to protect their insignificant self-esteem. Of course, he was touched by their kindness and tenderness!
Grandpa Sun couldn't help but turn around quietly and wiped the corners of his eyes with his hand.
Huan Xu noticed that the old gentlemen seemed to have misunderstood something, so he quickly said with a smile, "Actually, I wanted to invite a few of you to personally participate in the filming."
Rather than being a martial arts instructor behind the scenes, Huan Xu felt that it was more meaningful for the elderly to personally participate in the performance.
If it weren't for their persistence, ancient martial arts might have been lost.
They deserve respect and deserve to be remembered by future generations.
Inviting several elderly people to participate in the filming in person is both a tribute and a hope to let everyone see the persistence of this group of lovely and respectable elderly people.
As for action films, how can other actors’ performances and learning compare to those of these professional old men?
The elderly people opened their mouths slightly in surprise. They didn't expect that this time they would be invited to personally act in the movie.
Grandpa Sun hesitated and said, "But, but we don't know anything else except ancient martial arts."
Yes, they have dedicated their entire lives to ancient martial arts, and that is all they know.
Huan Xu smiled faintly and said, "That's enough."
Xuan Tianxing’s fans also helped him vote for the charts before, so we should treat all fans equally when giving back to them.
As for the debt +1 situation, Huan Xu's mentality is still relatively good. As the saying goes, too many lice will not itch, so he just needs to make the best use of the time to pay off some of the debt before the merger with Xinxing.
…
In the martial arts hall, while Mr. Tang wasn't paying attention, Tang Peiyu cautiously approached Huan Xu, blushing and stammering, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
Noticing the child's strange behavior, Huan Xu took the initiative to ask, "Xiao Yu, what's wrong?"
Tang Peiyu hesitated for a moment, but finally couldn't hold it back. With sparkling eyes, he lowered his voice and introduced himself: "Brother Xu, um, what do you think of me?"
"My basic skills are very solid. I'm just wondering if there's a role that's suitable for me, a small one, and I can film with my grandfather and the others."
"Of course, if there's nothing suitable, forget it," he added hastily.
All boys have a dream of being a hero. The knights in Man Jiang Hong are the heroes Tang Peiyu admires the most. Not only him, but many of his classmates also yearn to be heroes who travel the world with swords and defend their country.
Now that he heard that Director Huan was preparing another film of the same type, Tang Peiyu was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night. He came to Huan Xu to recommend himself not because he wanted Huan Xu to give him a backdoor, but if the conditions were right, he could have a chance to try, right?
Although he couldn't compare to those celebrities, he had a foundation in ancient martial arts. Didn't they say that professional things should be done by professionals? This was his advantage.
In fact, he felt a little regretful after he said those words, and felt that he seemed to have taken things for granted.
Although he knows some martial arts, he can't act.
Before he could back down, Huan Xu agreed directly: "Sure, come and play with Grandpa Tang then."
"But, but I can't act."
"No need for any acting skills, just play yourself. My original idea was to invite everyone to go together when the time comes."
Tang Peiyu nodded vigorously, his eyes sparkling, rubbing his hands and saying repeatedly: "Then... hehehe, thank you Brother Xu."
"You're welcome." Huan Xu patted his side and asked Tang Peiyu to sit next to him. He asked the child about the situation of Xiang Hai, the eldest brother of the martial arts school and also Mr. Tang's adopted son.
"I heard the old men mention it before. Did Brother Hai ever join the army?"
When talking about his senior brother, Tang Peiyu couldn't help but straighten his chest, and a hint of pride and pride flashed across his face.
"...Big Brother is not only that, he even won the title of Soldier King in some undisclosed special forces unit!" The child's face gleamed with longing and admiration: "After graduation, I also plan to enlist in the army to punish evildoers."
Tang Peiyu's face was full of excitement just now, but then his mood suddenly became gloomy again.
"It's a pity that Senior Brother was injured during a mission. Plus, he's not young anymore, and he had various hidden injuries from previous missions. Even with the best medical treatment, there are still some effects."
"My senior brother couldn't let go of Grandpa and the martial arts school, so he simply chose to retire and return to the martial arts school."
Huan Xu nodded and thought, "Pei Yu, do you think if I ask Brother Hai to participate in the filming, will he refuse?"
"Of course not." Tang Peiyu said without hesitation: "Not to mention that my senior brother has always wanted to revitalize ancient martial arts. He himself is also a fan of yours, Brother Xu. Hehe, when the time comes, we can both play supporting roles for Brother Xu."
Huan Xu coughed lightly: "I'm talking about another movie."
"You know I'm here for a filming assignment this time. It's actually a documentary, but it's an adventure-themed one. I haven't found the right person for the job, but after hearing what you said about Brother Hai, I think he's a good fit."
"I just don't know how Hai Ge's health is recovering now, and whether he's willing to participate in the filming."
The author has something to say:
