"And my ministers... This, this, if my court and harem are really as depicted in this TV series, how could my dynasty not perish?"
Comrade Ghost King was so angry he could vomit blood.
Yin Chen's eyes widened as she listened, and she pointed at him in astonishment, exclaiming, "You...you are the famous Emperor Li Long, one of the greatest emperors in history?"
There's a post on the internet asking which emperor in history most resembles a time traveler, and Le Long was among the answers.
He was handsome, of high status, multi-talented, and his poems have been passed down through the ages. He was also known for his unwavering devotion to one woman. His good looks are also recorded in history books, and he is considered the most handsome man in history.
The world's leading countries took the lead in the Industrial Revolution and took off, and this guy laid the foundation. During his reign, the steam engine and modern firearms had their prototypes. The vigorous popularization of education led to the collision of various ideas and the budding of the foundation of modern civilization. If it weren't for the frequent changes of dynasties later, it wouldn't have been overtaken by foreign countries.
Most importantly, this guy was incredibly dedicated to being emperor, and his intelligence was too high. While there was some initial resistance to his policies, by the middle period, his ministers had practically become his brainwashed fans. Whatever the emperor said, they would chant things like, "Your Majesty is awesome!", "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you're so handsome, I love you to death!", "Your Majesty, you're so smart!", "Your Majesty, look at me!"...
Before he got carried away, he sternly rebuked those brainless fans, telling them to focus on their work and stop chasing celebrities. He even issued an imperial edict rewarding those who offered advice. As a result, this emperor, who was jokingly called a masochist, later became so bad that even when he cooked eight dishes for a meal, his ministers criticized him for wasting food. The key point is that the emperor actually changed his ways, eating only two vegetarian dishes, one meat dish, and one soup at each meal.
When this emperor died, the whole country was dressed in mourning. After the eunuch finished reading the imperial edict, he immediately drew his sword and committed suicide to follow his emperor. Most of the officials in the court fainted from crying and then hanged themselves when they got home.
Because most of the talented ministers in the court died, and their descendants were too capable of causing trouble, such a dynasty quickly perished.
Long Xun then asked him, "What do you want?"
"I want to rectify the name!"
The Ghost King said firmly, and then Long Xun arranged for him to go and film a movie.
Then the small court under the Ghost King also started making movies.
After the TV series aired, "The Ghost King and His Little Court" became a hit. At first, everyone said that the show was unrealistic, and that it was impossible for ancient people to be so intelligent. Then historians jumped out and proved them wrong.
The Ghost King and his ilk lived during that era, and they knew their time like the back of their hand.
As a result, historians have enthusiastically embraced this TV series that recreates everything from that era, and it has even become one of the teaching materials in the current history textbooks.
The general consensus on this show is that everything about it is great except for the makeup artist's terrible skills; the actors' faces are so pale they look like ghosts.
The Ghost King smiled without saying a word.
After assigning the task to Ye Anan, Long Xun stopped worrying about it.
A month later, Long Xun suddenly received a call from Ye Tan. Ye Tan, who was already a superstar, awkwardly said to Long Xun, "Um... Your Majesty the Dragon God, I would like to ask you for a favor."
"Little Jiao (a humble term used by demons, similar to 'little man') has many friends in the cultivation world, including demon cultivators. They were very interested after watching Li Long's TV series and asked me to ask you if they could also act in the show?"
Long Xun: "..."
——About filming——
At Long Xun's command, Starlight Entertainment quickly assembled a crew and put the entire team on the plane.
The director was very dissatisfied with this. He had never heard of a director leading the crew to a location before the actors had even been seen.
However, seeing that there was a stunningly handsome long-haired man who was even warmer than Long Xun, Director Zhang didn't say much.
With that face alone, even if this movie is a complete disaster, it'll still break even.
After getting off the plane, several low-key Audis were waiting to pick them up. The crew members carried their equipment and got into the cars one by one. A short, fair-skinned man with a shy smile, who was driving, saw how tired they looked and kindly said, "Let me help you carry these."
"No need, young man, this thing is heavy, let them handle it. What's your name, young man?" Director Zhang smiled kindly at the boy, thinking to himself, this kid looks to be under fifteen, could he not have a driver's license?
The young man smiled shyly: "My name is Daomingzi."
"Okay, let's get going."
The car drove for twenty minutes, going further and further into the remote areas, away from the city, and gradually entering the mountains. The bumpy road made everyone feel like they were about to vomit.
Finally, the car stopped by a side road, and Michiko opened the car door and smiled, "We're here."
Zhang Daoguang felt despair as he looked at the seemingly endless path.
However, filming crews often suffer in order to find a good view. The staff, including Director Zhang, were already aware of this. After giving themselves a pep talk, they picked up their equipment and started climbing the mountain.
Seeing how hard they were working, Daomingzi smiled shyly again and said, "Sir, shall we help you carry it? My fellow disciples and I are very strong."
This time, he didn't let them refuse. He took two steps forward and gently picked up a camera and a roll of cable. His fellow disciples also took the boxes of various sizes that these people were carrying on their shoulders and in their arms. They all looked normal, as if they were carrying a single hair instead of dozens of kilograms.
Director Zhang was stunned. After a long while, he patted Daomingzi on the shoulder and solemnly said to his astonished expression, "Young man, with your strength, you should participate in the World Games and win glory for the country."
Domiko was both amused and exasperated, and sighed, "It would be too much of a bully if we participated."
