"The Great Xu Universe? What is that? I heard it's a term that originated from the Great Xu culture!"
"I'm not too sure, but I heard that DaXu Culture has launched another sci-fi project called 'Captain DaXia'."
"That's right! It's Captain Xia. He seems to be a superhero as well, but he's not quite the same as Iron Man."
"That sounds interesting. I wish it could be as good as Iron Man."
However, it seems that this time it wasn't Director Xu himself who took charge; it was someone else from Da Xu Culture who took over.
"That's normal. On the one hand, it's about training new talent, and on the other hand, isn't Director Xu busy filming horror movies?"
...
"Haha, I understand what 'Daxu Universe World' means. Daxu Culture is planning to create a science fiction universe world. They're really ambitious!"
"That's right! I heard that Iron Man and Captain Xia were just the first two superheroes to appear, and there will be more to come."
And what's most exciting is that these superheroes are rumored to have crossover events, which makes it even more anticipated..."
"So... Director Xu, why are you making horror movies? It would be so much better if you kept making sci-fi movies, that sounds so exciting!"
"If we can really create such a sci-fi universe, then Daxu Culture will definitely become the big brother in the film and television industry."
...
There has been much discussion among netizens about the 'Great Xu Universe World', and some of their guesses are surprisingly close to the truth.
However, people only know two superheroes right now: Iron Man, who has already had three movies, and Captain Big Xia, who is still in the planning stages.
As for the other characters, even people within Daxu Culture might not know them.
It's estimated that only a few key figures, such as Feng Xiaoxia, have a clear understanding of the situation.
Of course, they only know one side of the story.
After all, all these things are in Director Xu's head; he just occasionally reveals a little bit about them.
Let's not even talk about what happened with Captain Xia.
After finding Lam Kei-ying to play the lead role of Uncle Nine, the crew of "Mr. Vampire" had already started filming.
Xu Lu is not only the chief director, but also the actor who plays Qiu Sheng, the apprentice of "Uncle Nine".
In fact, he is quite suitable for this role, because Qiu Sheng's role is more about action scenes, which is exactly what Xu Lu is best at.
If it were someone else, they probably wouldn't be able to do these difficult moves at all.
The excitement of the action scenes will drop sharply.
It's worth noting that in 'Mr. Vampire', Anthony Wong's amazing action scenes, Uncle Nine's Taoist magic, and the novel zombie monsters are the three biggest highlights.
Therefore, to maintain the original flavor of this drama, three key points are indispensable.
Of course, besides that, there are also many comedic elements that prevent this horror film from becoming too scary.
...
On set, everyone watched nervously as 'Uncle Nine' performed his spell, not daring to breathe loudly for fear of interfering with the operation.
At this moment, everyone admired Director Xu even more.
Because the filming process involved many things related to Maoshan Taoist magic, it looked so real that everyone present was stunned.
As for why I don't admire Lam Kei-ying, who played Uncle Nine, but rather Director Hui.
Of course, it's because all the spell techniques that Lam Kei-ying used in her performance were taught to her by Director Hsu, bit by bit.
Fortunately, this chef uncle was also a diligent learner.
As the days went by, his acting skills improved more and more, and he gradually began to resemble "Uncle Nine".
By this point, Xu Lu realized that his training plan was almost complete.
"What people fear most is... three long and two short... What incense dislikes most is... two short and one long..."
Look, this incense stick... it just happened to burn like this..."
Uncle Nine showed his two apprentices the three incense sticks in his hand and said this:
"If this incense is emitted from a house... then someone must have died..."
Upon hearing these words, the cast and crew members present felt a chill run down their spines, and the hairs on the backs of their necks stood on end.
You should know that the scene on set right now is the 'mortuary' in the movie, and there's even a 'coffin' prop on it.
Especially because of the plot, this happens to be a 'night scene'.
It was pitch black outside, and bringing someone along only made it more eerie...
Fortunately, the scene was finally filmed a few moments later.
As all the lights came on, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.
However, various whispers and discussions also followed:
"My God! That really scared me. My hair stood on end. The atmosphere was absolutely amazing."
"Yeah, I'm a huge fan of horror movies, and I almost couldn't take it just now."
"The main reason is that the scene Director Xu arranged was so realistic, and the acting was so lifelike."
"I suddenly feel that after our movie is finished, it will definitely scare a lot of people, hahaha."
"Of course! Come to think of it, I actually had a role in it too, which was quite fun."
"You played a role? That's impossible. I watched the whole thing and didn't see you at all."
"Hehe, you don't know this, do you? I played Zombie No. 3, and it was so much fun to see me jumping around like that."
...
On the other side, Lin Qiying, who plays the dignified Uncle Nine in the film, walked up to Xu Lu with a restrained expression.
He said with some concern:
"Director Xu, was my performance terrible just now? I almost mispronounced my lines!"
