As soon as Chu Tianming came in and mentioned the crew's lack of funds again, Xu Yizhou felt something was not good. Upon hearing this familiar conversation, he immediately secretly turned on the recording on his mobile phone to keep a hand for himself.
He was fooled once, and he will never be fooled a second time.
And he doesn't want to groom his hamster anymore.
While recording, when talking with Chu Tianming, he kept deliberately guiding and talked about many issues concerning investment.
As soon as the others left, he immediately found Xiao He with the recording, looking expectant.
"Captain, didn't you say before that Chu Tianming's contract didn't mention where the funds went? With these recordings, can we prove he committed fraud?"
Xiao He didn't expect Xu Yizhou to be smart this time. He felt that his silly child had finally come to his senses.
She listened carefully to the recording and nodded slightly.
"Although it cannot be used as direct evidence, it can be used together with previous contracts and transfer records to file a lawsuit."
Hearing this, Xu Yizhou smiled happily and walked out impatiently.
"I'm going now!"
"etc!"
Xiao He quickly stopped him and reminded him, "When Chu Tianming tricked you into signing the contract, didn't he give you a list of actors? Contact the actors listed and file a lawsuit together. The more people the better. Make Chu Tianming spit out all the money he swallowed!"
"good!"
Xu Yizhou was ready to fight. After enduring for so long, he could finally take revenge!
On the same day, Xiao He quickly found the people on the cast list.
Upon closer inspection, I discovered that in addition to some new actors, there were also many people who were already well-known, and they were all deceived to varying degrees.
Those new actors originally entered the entertainment industry with great enthusiasm, wanting to show their ambitions and realize their dreams, but they did not expect to encounter such a deception. Not only did they fail to successfully join the crew, but their money was also defrauded. They have never recovered since then, and many of them are still playing supporting roles in a daze until now.
Some of them have even given up hope. How can a minor actor compete with a big director?
When Xiao He explained the plan to them, many people were a little bit skeptical and worried that it would be a waste of time.
"With Xu Yizhou taking the lead, there won't be any problems."
With the release of "Zombieland", Xu Yizhou has gradually become popular. When they heard this name, they were immediately surprised.
"Someone like Xu Yizhou was also deceived?"
"If it's him, there might be hope!"
Under the appeal of Xu Yizhou's name, more than a dozen actors quickly gathered together, collected all the evidence in just a few days, and immediately filed a lawsuit.
When Chu Tianming received the court notice, he was having dinner with Xu Yizhou.
He has been a little worried recently. He had originally agreed with Xu Yizhou to sign a contract to invest another one million yuan, but a few days have passed and there have been problems on Xu Yizhou's side. The bank financial management has been delayed in withdrawing the money, causing the remittance to be delayed again and again.
In order to prevent the other party from discovering the flaw, he had to cooperate with the acting.
Fortunately, Xu Yizhou looked stupid and was kept in the dark, so Chu Tianming was not worried about being discovered at all.
As long as he waits for the final payment to arrive, he can retire from the entertainment industry with the money he has defrauded from "Swordsman" in the past two years and live a carefree life.
Even if the actors are not satisfied, what can they do?
The contract did not mention the start date of filming or the use of funds. Even if they went to the police, they could not do anything to him.
Chu Tianming's wishful thinking was well underway. While eating, he urged Xu Yizhou to transfer the money as soon as possible. In his words, he described the situation of himself and the crew as very miserable.
He knew very well what to say to these young actors who were only thinking about acting so that they would be willing to be deceived.
Unexpectedly, Xu Yizhou's expression was even sadder than his.
"I also want to transfer the funds as soon as possible so that the film can be shot as soon as possible. Seeing the crew delay for one day, it feels like my heart is bleeding. I have been urging the bank to speed up the process, but they keep delaying."
As Xu Yizhou spoke, tears actually rolled down his eyes and he cried out of anxiety.
Chu Tianming had originally planned to pretend crying in front of Xu Yizhou today. Bobo was so sympathetic that he even prepared eye drops. However, he didn't expect Xu Yizhou to cry so sadly and sincerely. He didn't know what to do for a moment.
I had no choice but to persuade her, "You don't have to be so sad. I believe the bank will be able to handle it soon. I won't rush you. Don't cry."
"Thank you, Director."
Xu Yizhou agreed straightforwardly, then raised his head. His eyes, which had been filled with tears just now, were now dry and bright. How could there be any trace of water?
She was crying heartbroken just a moment ago, but now she is eating with her arms around her, as if the scene just now was all his illusion.
Chu Tianming was stunned.
Seeing this scene, he vaguely felt that something was wrong.
At this moment, he received a call from the court informing him of the court date.
"Mr. Chu Tianming? The court has received indictment regarding your suspected fraud. The case will be heard next Monday. Please be sure to attend. The specific hearing time will be notified by email."
When Chu Tianming suddenly heard the news, he was not panicked at all.
This is not the first time that he has used scripts to defraud money. Some actors were dissatisfied and took him to court, but they were all rejected due to insufficient evidence.
I wonder which actor it is this time?
The actress who plays the leading lady?
Or that male supporting role?
While he was guessing in his mind, he asked calmly, "Who filed the lawsuit?"
"There are 13 plaintiffs in this lawsuit, including Xu Yizhou, Chen Meiyun, and Yuan Dong..."
As soon as he heard the first name, Chu Tianming's face changed drastically.
"Wait! Who are you talking about? Is this a lawsuit filed by Xu Yizhou?!"
He widened his eyes and looked at the person sitting opposite him in shock.
Across from him, Xu Yizhou was still eating, still looking silly, a typical gullible person.
And clearly, just a few seconds ago, Xu Yizhou had once again stepped into the trap he had set. How could it be...
At this time, the voice on the other end of the phone said calmly: "Please prepare the information as soon as possible and attend on time."
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
Chu Tianming was still in shock at this time and kept looking at Xu Yizhou.
"I just received a call..."
"Did you call so soon?"
Xu Yizhou continued his words in a calm tone.
When Chu Tianming heard this calm and unwavering voice, his heart was shaken, and he suddenly had a bad premonition.
Something seems to be wrong.
He tried hard to recall Xu Yizhou's sad tears, the fact that he hadn't been able to successfully transfer the money for several days, and his current tone...
"What the hell is going on? You've been lying to me all this time? You're suing me?!"
Xu Yizhou nodded slightly, smiled at him, and said, "Don't even think about competing with professional actors in acting. You can't win."
In terms of scheming, he is no match for Chu Tianming.
But when it comes to acting skills, Xu Yizhou will definitely not lose.
"We'll see you in court. Those actors you tricked before are waiting for you."
After saying that, he looked at Chu Tianming coldly for a whole day and left.
It wasn't until he walked out of the restaurant that the cold aura on Xu Yizhou's face instantly dissipated. He grinned excitedly and walked quickly towards the car on the side of the road.
As soon as he got on the bus, he started dancing excitedly.
"Captain! It feels so good to get slapped in the face! How come I only felt this joy today? Did you see Chu Tianming's confused expression just now? It was so funny! I've endured it for so many days, and I finally feel better."
Xiao He waited outside the whole time, observing their every move, but did not show up.
Seeing Xu Yizhou so excited, he raised his lips and smiled.
"The slapping has just begun. What happens next will make Chu Tianming's face swell up."
The next day, Xu Yizhou and Xiao He did not go to the crew again.
At this time, on the other side, Chu Tianming was completely panicked.
He had always thought that his plan was foolproof and that no one would sue him unless there were any problems with the contract. However, when he went to the court to inquire, the court's answer was:
"After verification, the evidence provided by the plaintiff is complete and meets the criteria for fraud. Please go back and prepare your materials, hire a lawyer or defend yourself, and attend the trial on time according to the time notified to you."
The evidence is complete!
Fits the bill for a scam!
These eight words made Chu Tianming look confused.
He couldn't figure out what kind of evidence Xu Yizhou provided that could be so destructive. He wanted to resolve it privately and called him, but the other party didn't answer.
Only then did he truly realize that Xu Yizhou had been acting all this time!
With such good acting skills, he was actually fooled.
At this point, Chu Tianming still wanted to find someone to help, but what he had done in the past two years had spread almost throughout the circle, and no one wanted to get involved. He made dozens of phone calls, but no one was willing to help.
A week later, the formal trial began.
Chu Tianming sat in the defendant's seat, and opposite him in the plaintiff's seat were thirteen actors including Xu Yizhou.
He had still held out a glimmer of hope, but when he saw Xu Yizhou produce the recording file as evidence, as well as the information on how he had squandered and misappropriated the crew's funds over the past year, his expression quickly turned gloomy. He sat dejectedly in the courtroom, unable to even utter a word of rebuttal.
For today, Xiao He had been investigating every source of Chu Tianming's misappropriated funds while Xu Yizhou and Chu Tianming were playing cozy with each other.
At this time, the information piled up on the table like a mountain was all provided by her.
But today, Xiao He did not go to the court to listen to the trial.
Since the trial ended and Chu Tianming was sentenced to repay all the fraudulent funds and sentenced to 15 years in prison, she has been refreshing the online auction page.
Less than half an hour later, the Blue Star Entertainment Script Center called.
"Sister Xiao He, didn't you ask us to keep an eye on a script called 'Swordsman'? Just now, someone contacted various major film and television companies, wanting to sell the script and is currently bidding online."
Here we come!
Xiao He's eyes lit up slightly, and he asked, "Has anyone made an offer?"
"Not yet. The script has such a bad reputation. It's a shame for the original novel. I didn't expect it to be in such trouble."
The dirty things Chu Tianming has done in the past two years, coupled with today's trial that shocked the entire entertainment industry, have made everyone avoid the script of "Swordsman" like a disaster.
Xiao He had anticipated this outcome.
After Chu Tianming was sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment, he would definitely try to find a way to reduce his punishment. The only way would be to return the defrauded money in full as soon as possible.
But Xiao He had discovered during his previous investigation that Chu Tianming had been squandering money for the past two years, and even if his original property was added, it would not be enough to fill this hole.
After the house is sold, the scripts will also be sold one after another.
The reputation of "The Swordsman" has been ruined by Chu Tianming and it cannot be sold at a good price.
The copyright that he had spent millions to buy can now only be sold at a discount.
This is the opportunity Xiao He was waiting for.
"This script probably won't sell, right? No one will buy this kind of script, so who would be willing to act in it?" said an employee of the script center.
Xiao He smiled but didn't answer.
After hanging up the phone, open the bidding page for the "Swordsman" script and enter a number.
After two rounds of competition, Xiao He took home the script, which was originally priced at 1.8 million yuan, for 500,000 yuan.
The next day, she took Xu Yizhou to the detention center and asked Chu Tianming to sign the property transfer document.
After not seeing him for a while, Chu Tianming seemed like a completely different person, and he looked ten years older.
His long hair was shaved off, revealing a swollen and haggard face. There was no shrewdness in his eyes, only pain and confusion. Only the moment he saw Xu Yizhou did he surge with rage.
He cheated so many people, but he failed on Xu Yizhou, who seemed to be the easiest to cheat.
"How dare you come to me!"
Xu Yizhou shook his head and said, "It wasn't me who came to you, it was my agent who came to you."
Chu Tianming was really confused, when he suddenly saw a tall girl walk in.
Her long black hair was tied into a ponytail, and her stunning facial features were expressionless. When she sat down next to Xu Yizhou, she looked at him with a somewhat cold and resolute gaze.
"Hello, I'm Xu Yizhou's agent, Xiao He. I'm here to sign the property transfer agreement for 'Swordsman'. I contacted you before, remember?"
Hearing this, Chu Tianming's eyes suddenly widened, and he looked at Xiao He carefully, and was suddenly shocked.
"You're Xu Yizhou's agent!? No! I've seen you on the set! Aren't you the porter?"
Xiao He smiled faintly.
"It's me. I worked in your crew for a while before and I'm very familiar with your work style."
Chu Tianming was completely shocked.
He recalled that in order to coax Xu Yizhou into investing again, he had taken him in and out of the crew every day and even assigned staff members to act. Unexpectedly, Xu Yizhou's agent was among them all the time!
"You planned all this! Just for my script?"
Xiao He smiled and said, "Let me correct you. From now on, the script of 'Swordsman' is mine."
Chu Tianming's face was full of anger.
"What do you want to do with this script?"
"You have prepared the actors, script and crew. I will find a suitable director to fully present "Swordsman" on the big screen." Xiao He said truthfully.
Upon hearing this, Chu Tianming's face turned pale instantly.
"Have you been working on this script from the very beginning?"
Xiao He: "At first, I just wanted to send you to prison. This script is an unexpected surprise. From now on, you can just sit there for the rest of your life. Everything else has nothing to do with you anymore."
Chu Tianming was completely irritated by this sentence, and his expression was angry and anxious.
I never thought that one day I would be making wedding dresses for others.
After saying that, she directly took out the property transfer document.
"Sign it."
Ten minutes later, Xiao He walked out of the police station, holding the script of "Swordsman" tightly in his hand.
Xu Yizhou was having a blast the whole day.
"Captain, have you found a suitable director? Once you find one, can I join the crew?"
Hearing this, Xiao He paused, thought for a moment and said, "No need to look for one, there's already a good director."
Less than two years after graduation, he went from being an ordinary student in the directing department to making a movie that was a box office success and received great reviews. This may be an achievement that others simply cannot do, but Li Weilai did it.
While "Zombieland" is still in theaters, the box office continues to rise and is expected to exceed one billion.
Li Weiwei looks at the reported data every day and feels like he is in a dream.
A few days ago, he received an invitation from his alma mater to give a speech at home.
Just two years after graduation, he returned to school as an outstanding graduate, directly crushing other students of the same grade and becoming the object of admiration of all his younger classmates.
Li Weilai feels that his life has been complete.
At this moment, he received another call from Xiao He.
I thought she was here to inquire about the movie box office, but when the call was connected, Xiao He's first words were:
"Have you read the novel 'The Swordsman'?"
Li Weiwei was stunned at first, then immediately said, "I know. I spent my entire college years reading this novel. I guess there's no boy who wouldn't like it, right? I've read it at least ten times!"
After that, Xiao He's second sentence was: "I have the movie script for 'Swordsman' now. Do you want to shoot it?"
Li Weilai was completely confused.
What does it mean to receive good news from heaven?
A minute ago, he thought he had achieved the pinnacle of his life.
Unexpectedly, it can be taken to the next level!
"I want to!" he answered excitedly, and then quickly said, "I want to get ready now and start auditioning actors right away!"
Xiao He's third sentence was: "No need, the script, actors and crew have already been found, you can start filming anytime."
Hearing this, Li Weiwei took a deep breath.
"Xiao He, it's great to be able to hold your thigh!"
Just imagine, which young director, just two years after graduation, would send his own script to the big screen and achieve great success, and then in less than three months, start filming the most popular martial arts novel of the past two years?
Li Weiwei felt like he was in heaven.
He tried hard to recall, but he didn't know when his good luck started to happen, when he met Xiao He, and then stepped onto the peak of his life step by step.
At this moment, Xiao He asked again: "By the way, is Auntie still selling lunch boxes recently?"
"Yes, yes, my mother is always busy."
"Okay, then I'll order another fifty. Any dish you want. I'll pick it up whenever it's ready."
After saying that, Xiao He hung up the phone.
Li Weiwei looked at her phone and suddenly remembered that all her luck had started when her mother sold lunch boxes to Xiao He...
Li Weilai, male, 24 years old, reached the pinnacle of life by relying on his mother selling boxed lunches!
When Brother Jian heard about Xiao He's series of operations, not only did he buy the script of "Swordsman" at a low price, but he also got the script and actors for free, he was immediately shocked.
"Being an agent at this level is really a waste of your talent..."
Originally, he thought that there was no way to save Xu Yizhou's situation and he could only suffer in silence.
Unexpectedly, after struggling for more than half a month, Xiao He was able to turn the tide and get back a lot from Chu Tianming.
Who wouldn’t say this operation is awesome?
"How's it going? Are you planning to film 'The Swordsman' now?"
Xiao He nodded: "That's right."
Hearing this answer, Brother Jian looked embarrassed.
"The original novel of 'The Swordsman' is indeed very famous, but in the past two years, the reputation of this script has been ruined by Chu Tianming. In addition, martial arts movies are not profitable nowadays, so it will be difficult for the company to invest."
The last time "Zombieland" was made, it happened to coincide with a company crisis, and the top management decided to take a gamble.
Now that the crisis is over, stability is the main direction.
Xiao He said, "We don't need the company's investment. Remember the investment Chu Tianming scammed from the actors before? I've already discussed it with them. We will invest in this movie ourselves, and we will share the profits after the filming is completed."
Xiao He had discussed it carefully with the dozen or so actors over the past few days.
These people all had a preference for the script of "Swordsman" and were passionate about acting, so after listening to Xiao He's proposal, many of them were willing to continue investing.
Martial arts movies don't require many special effects, and the shooting costs are not high. In addition, the huge expense of actors' salaries is saved. Judging from the current funds, it can barely cope with the shooting process.
Xiao He was ready to invest more and turned to look at Brother Jian.
"Brother Jian, do you want to invest?"
"I?"
Brother Jian widened his eyes.
He had been a broker for more than ten years and had never been involved in any investment, so he was a little hesitant.
Not to mention that the script of "Swordsman" has a very bad reputation now, let's look at the list of actors that Xiao He brought. Xu Yizhou is actually the most popular one. The others are either extras or have been in the entertainment industry for several years and are 180-line actors whose real names cannot be found.
The previous "Zombieland" was successful because of the right time, place and people.
There can only be one miracle, how can it be so easy to replicate?
Brother Jian thought to himself that this movie would most likely lose money, and those who chose to invest probably just wanted to fulfill their own martial arts dreams.
He doesn't have any martial arts dreams.
But Xiao He finally spoke and looked at him expectantly, so he couldn't refuse.
"Then... I'll also invest 200,000?"
This number is not a lot for filming a movie, but Brother Jian did it entirely for Xiao He's sake, just like throwing a meat bun at a dog, which would never come back.
Xiao He didn't mind, every bit counts.
"Can."
Then he took out an investment contract from his bag and asked Brother Jian to sign it.
Brother Jian signed the document in a daze, feeling a little confused.
Xiao He obviously came prepared.
"When Chu Tianming was defrauding people of their investments before, was he exactly the same as you are now?"
Xiao He glanced at him.
"No, he has to treat people to a meal, and use sweet words, and put on a show. I don't need that. I just ask people to sign directly."
Brother Jian: ...
Why do I feel like you are more ferocious?
After signing a contract, Xiao He went to ask a few colleagues. When they heard what she said, they immediately took three or two steps back, their eyes full of suspicion, with an expression of "you are a liar" on their faces.
If Xu Yizhou had this awareness, he would not have been deceived in the first place.
Xiao He took the script and prepared to finish his meal first, then go to the company's senior management to recruit able-bodied men, as many as he could.
After eating, Jiang Ye sat opposite and hesitated for a long time.
"Brother Jian said you are looking for someone to invest?"
Xiao He nodded frankly.
"I've bought the script for 'The Swordsman' and I'm planning to make it into a movie."
After saying that, seeing that Jiang Ye hesitated to speak and seemed a little embarrassed, Xiao He thought that he was just like everyone else in the company and was also worried that he would follow in Chu Tianming's footsteps.
"Don't worry, I'm not lying."
Unexpectedly, Jiang Ye asked, "Why don't you come to me?"
When he asked this question, his fluffy hair drooped and he looked very sad.
Xiao He was stunned.
Jiang Ye added, "I heard from them that you asked 80% of the company's employees, but never came to me."
Brother Jian called him as soon as he signed the contract.
She cried bitterly on the phone, saying that her 200,000 yuan might be wasted, and reminded him that if Xiao He came to him for investment, he must not be blinded by emotions and must refuse sternly.
So Jiang Ye checked his savings first, and then waited excitedly for Xiao He to come to him.
I waited for the whole morning, but she didn't come.
When he went out to ask, he found that Xiao He had contacted 80% of the employees, except him.
"Is this why you're sad?"
Xiao He looked at Jiang Ye in surprise.
Jiang Ye nodded.
The bank card has been restless in my wallet all morning.
Xiao He explained, "The people I'm looking for are all veteran employees of the company. They should have enough assets to invest. As an editor, your salary isn't high, so I didn't look for you."
Hearing this, Jiang Ye was speechless.
Although his salary as an editor is not high, he used to earn a lot when he was a singer!
"I have a little spare money and I'm actually planning to invest it."
Xiao He didn't expect that no one would believe him even after he had talked so hard in the morning, but Jiang Ye came to him on his own initiative.
"Is it the movie that Xu Yizhou was cheated of before?" Jiang Ye asked.
"That's right."
"Can I see the script first?"
The script is the biggest factor in determining whether a movie is successful, followed by the director and actors.
Jiang Ye did not invest blindly just because of Xiao He. Instead, he read the script carefully first and made a decision after studying it carefully.
"Is that so? This script is good, right?" Xiao He asked impatiently.
Jiang Ye nodded slightly and said directly: "I will invest 20 million."
"Is this the little spare money you mentioned?"
Xiao He was a little shocked.
She guessed that Jiang Ye's job income was not high, but he lived in a residential area where every inch of land was valuable. He must have been living a hard life paying off his mortgage every day, so she would send him one or two bags of rice from time to time to help him out.
But unexpectedly, he offered 20 million right away, which doubled the film's funding in an instant.
Jiang Ye smiled modestly.
"I saved a little money in my last job."
In addition, in the past few days after retiring from the entertainment industry, he has been making various investments, and the assets under his name have increased several times. Twenty million is not too much for him.
"Did you make this decision after reading the script?" Xiao He confirmed again.
Jiang Ye nodded.
"If the script is not good, I won't invest a penny."
Although he likes Xiao He, he will not be partial to her in such matters.
Hearing this, Xiao He finally felt relieved.
"Okay! I can guarantee that you will not be disappointed with this investment!"
After gathering all the funds, the crew of "Swordsman" officially started filming.
This film has been in preparation since Chu Tianming's time. So far, nearly two years have passed and everyone was about to give up until Xiao He brought the actors and director back to the set.
All the crew members couldn't believe it when they saw her.
The staff member who had persuaded Xiao He to leave recognized her at a glance and was shocked.
"You... aren't you the porter from before?"
He worked in the crew for a while, was capable and worked hard, but one day he suddenly disappeared.
The stage manager thought that she chose to leave because she listened to his advice.
It wasn't until I came back now and took a closer look that I realized this porter gave me a completely different feeling.
His facial features were still the same, but his eyes were no longer timid and confused. Instead, they were full of energy and had a fierce aura. Just standing there, he was impossible to ignore.
And more importantly, the actors who came in with her all centered around her and listened to her instructions.
Even the male actor who had been deceived before was there to serve her tea and water.
Everyone was stunned.
"What on earth is going on?"
Xu Yizhou explained, "Xiao He is my agent. She worked here before only to monitor Chu Tianming, collect evidence, and help us recover the money we were defrauded of. Although she didn't show up at the previous trial, it was all planned by Xiao He."
Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked.
After Chu Tianming and the assistant director were taken away, some time passed before everyone's delayed wages were paid.
They only knew that someone collected evidence, successfully sued Chu Tianming, and helped them get their wages back, but they didn't expect that the person who did all this was actually the "porter"!
"Are you planning to leave now?" Xiao He asked at this time.
The stagehand nodded.
"We've all been paid, but the director has been arrested and the crew can't continue. Everyone is ready to find new jobs."
Xiao He smiled and said, "The filming of 'Swordsman' will continue. You guys can stay. I'll be watching over you this time and I will definitely not delay your wages."
Hearing this, everyone in the crew looked at each other with hesitation on their faces.
They have been in this crew for a year. Although Chu Tianming only uses the crew as a tool to deceive people, both the props team and the costume team have been doing their job conscientiously, which can be seen from the countless props in the warehouse.
They had feelings for each other before, but they were completely wiped out by Chu Tianming.
They were a little reluctant to leave like this.
At this moment, they looked at Xiao He, and then at the actors who had returned, and everyone slowly rekindled their confidence.
"Okay! We feel at ease with you here."
The staff put down their luggage and chose to stay.
Xiao He took Li Weiwei around the crew and investigated everywhere.
"How's it going? The props have all been made, the costumes have been adjusted, and we can start filming anytime."
Li Weiwei looked worried.
"There's really no need to worry about these things, but there's another issue. 'The Blade Master' is a martial arts film. What's most important is the actors' skills, the exquisite martial arts design, the countering of moves, and the impact of swords clashing. Only with these can it be called a true martial arts film."
Xiao He nodded.
She remembered that after she came to this world, she had watched several newly released martial arts movies.
Every fight was in slow motion, with the same scene being played over and over again. The so-called martial arts master couldn't even beat her, so he really didn't deserve the title.
Li Weilai said: "I have hired a well-known martial arts instructor in the industry to provide intensive training for all the actors before filming begins, so that they can at least master some basic fighting skills, body movements and action techniques."
When talking about these martial arts instructors, his expression immediately became bright.
"This martial arts instructor is no ordinary person. He is a lay disciple of Shaolin Temple. After returning from his studies, he has been working as a martial arts instructor in the entertainment industry. His moves have appeared in many films and have been widely praised."
When Xiao He heard this description, he thought it was some kind of hermit master.
When I arrived at the set the next day, I saw a young man about thirty years old leading the actors in rehearsal.
The man was dark and thin, with a young appearance. He was holding a sword in his hand and swinging it in a sword-shaped manner. He had been preparing for a long time. I thought he was going to perform a special move next, but he just put away the sword with a simple swing.
It drew applause from the whole audience.
Xiao He looked puzzled.
A hermit?
That’s it?
"Next, everyone will form pairs and repeat the designed movements several times. Once you are familiar with them, you can start filming." said the martial arts instructor.
Everyone dispersed.
As the male lead, Xu Yizhou is set up as a swordsman in the movie, which is different from others.
The martial arts instructor deliberately kept him and arranged a special set of exercises for him, and then told him, "Your moves may seem simple, but they are very powerful. Ask your agent to help you practice and be your sparring partner so that you can get familiar with them as soon as possible."
As soon as he finished saying this, Xu Yizhou's expression suddenly changed.
"Isn't this a bit bad?"
The martial arts instructor looked in the direction where Xiao He was standing.
A beautiful, slender, and somewhat weak young girl. He thought Xu Yizhou was worried that she was a girl and could not keep up with the martial arts moves.
"It's just a simple exchange of moves and combing of the movements. Girls can do it too."
Xu Yizhou laughed dryly and said timidly, "But I'm a little scared."
The martial arts instructor said: "Don't worry about hurting her. This knife is not sharpened. Just be careful."
"That's not what I meant..."
He answered weakly.
At this time, Xiao He heard their conversation and walked over.
"You want a sparring partner? Let me do it."
The martial arts instructor nodded, feeling very sorry for Xiao He and worried that she would get hurt.
"Just take it slow at first, don't be afraid."
Xiao He nodded, picked up a heavy sword that was two palms wide, weighed it in his hand, and walked towards the open space.
"bring it on!"
Xu Yizhou was frightened by these two words and trembled, holding on to the martial arts instructor's arm tightly, as if he was grabbing a piece of driftwood in the ocean.
"Teacher, you should fight me."
The other party shook his head slightly and reminded him: "If I fight you, I might hurt you if I don't control my skills well."
Xu Yizhou smiled.
If I fight you, I might get hurt.
If you don't grasp your position when fighting with Xiao He, you will be killed.
