Chapter 375 The Biggest Crisis
Hu Xiaoxiao pulled out a chair and sat across from Huang Yuliang. The secretary came in with some tea, placed it in front of Hu Xiaoxiao, and then left.
Hu Xiaoxiao picked up the tea and took a few sips, his eyes falling on Huang Yuliang who was talking on the phone.
He leaned back in his chair, his legs naturally crossed beneath his straight trousers. The sleeves of his white shirt were rolled up halfway, revealing the sleek lines of his arms. He listened intently to the phone, his usually gentle and gentle face taking on a more stern look. Behind his stylish titanium glasses, his eyes gleamed with a hint of coldness.
Hu Xiaoxiao had a keen sense of hearing and vaguely heard that the person on the other end of the phone was talking about some recent confrontations that had occurred in District 5.
It seems that they really want to tear Shengshi and Huang Yuliang's territory into pieces and devour them.
Huang Yuliang said a few words into the phone, then put it down, lowered his legs, sat up straight, and said to Hu Xiaoxiao: "I've heard about the Yi Hai Gang coming to cause trouble today."
Hu Xiaoxiao held the teacup and asked, "What do you think?"
Huang Yuliang said: "When the Changxing Society came to collect protection money, I contacted Uncle Ding. He went to the mainland and his return date is uncertain. Whether he knew about the Changxing Society's actions is no longer important now."
Whether Ding Guoxiang knew it or not, agreed or not, it could not change the attitude of Changxing Society to be irreconcilable with Shengshi.
Hu Xiaoxiao then repeated his conversation with Li Huishan to Huang Yuliang, "They're teaming up to deal with us, just like we teamed up with them to deal with the Sanren Society. They're using the scoundrel to prey on the scoundrel."
Whoever has the stronger fist and power will be the one who eats the other. Similarly, whoever is weaker will be eaten.
It is very obvious from the situation that Shengshi is the weak one. Whether in terms of numbers or strength, it is far from comparable to these local tyrants in Baogang.
If Hu Xiaoxiao and Huang Yuliang were both timid people, or sensible people, the most appropriate thing to do would be to obediently hand over the prosperous times and the occupied territories, and then become younger brothers and obey the arrangements of these big brothers.
Unfortunately, Hu Xiaoxiao has always been an unconventional person, someone who loves to bend the rules. Over the years, hasn't she encountered enough powerful people? Has she ever surrendered to them?
As for Huang Yuliang, he dared to bring only a few people to Baogang, the territory dominated by the underworld, to stir up trouble, set up a company to work in the film industry dominated by the underworld, and dared to fight against the Sanren Society that gave Baogang people a headache to seize territory. It can be seen that he is not a kind-hearted person.
Want him to give in? First ask the machine gun in his hand if it agrees.
Huang Yuliang stood up, walked to the wine rack, poured two glasses of red wine, and gave one to Hu Xiaoxiao.
He walked to the French window, overlooking the skyscrapers of the city outside, and took a sip of his drink. After a long pause, he turned back and said to Hu Xiaoxiao, "Surrounded by enemies, this crisis is Shengshi Entertainment's biggest yet. If we can get through this, the sea will be wide open for us to swim. If we can't, Xiaoxiao, I'm afraid I'll be forced to leave Baogang, and your acting career will be over."
Hu Xiaoxiao stood up and walked to Huang Yuliang's side. He gently swirled the wine in his glass, raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked him, "Are you afraid?"
Huang Yuliang narrowed his eyes slightly, his dark pupils burning with ambition behind his glasses. "If I were afraid, I wouldn't have come to Baogang. What about you?"
"If I were afraid, I wouldn't dare to enter the entertainment industry." Hu Xiaoxiao was equally ambitious. She gestured at the wine glass in her hand.
Huang Yuliang chuckled and clinked his glass with Hu Xiaoxiao's. "Then let's have a happy cooperation."
“It’s a pleasure to work with you.”
I'm always fighting with some small fish and shrimps, it's endless and annoying, when will it end?
Since someone is causing trouble, let's make it bigger and solve it once and for all.
Hu Xiaoxiao and Huang Yuliang smiled at each other. They were just two small fish in the eyes of some big guys, but they wanted to turn over the sea and the sky.
On this day, Hu Xiaoxiao stayed in Huang Yuliang's office for several hours. No one knew what they talked about, but they only knew that not long after, they changed the entire landscape of the Baogang underworld.
After finishing the exterior shots of the second part of "The Princess Diaries", the crew began to move on to the martial arts scenes, which had the largest number of scenes. All of these martial arts scenes were shot in rented locations.
In order to prevent the crew from being disturbed, Shengshi Entertainment has security guards following the crew every day to ensure the safety of all artists and staff.
The scene shot today was at a cruise ship cocktail party. The shipping girl got jealous and hired a few henchmen to deal with Yunxiao. But three domineering women found out in advance and came to intercept her.
The cruise ship scenes are divided into exterior and interior scenes. The exterior scenes use the exterior of a cruise ship to shoot a few shots to show how huge and luxurious the cruise ship the protagonist enters is.
The interior scenes were filmed in an abandoned factory rented in the suburbs, which served as the bottom floor of the cruise ship.
This was a crucial action scene. While the factory rental wasn't expensive, to ensure the filming effect, the crew had already sent in people to paint the factory's more run-down areas, move in props resembling those found in the lower holds of a cruise ship, and cover up some obvious factory machinery. Furthermore, to enhance the action, several pieces of sports equipment were added. Overall, the cost of setting up this set was more than the factory rental itself.
The crew rented two abandoned factories in this area. In addition to filming the cruise ship scenes, they also filmed the fight scenes where Da Lai was later tracked down.
Most of the scenes today are about Xiong Caiwei, Yuan Aner and Yilan.
In view of the strengths and weaknesses of the three, martial arts instructor Nie Jinlong began special training for them half a year ago. This was a well-prepared scene.
Xiong Caiwei has a background in dance, and after six months of hard training in martial arts, her punches and kicks are much more powerful and her moves are more precise than in the first film. However, to ensure the movements are attractive and novel, Nie Jinlong designed several splits and flexible waist movements for Xiong Caiwei.
The flexibility of the dance, coupled with the powerful movements, makes it highly visually appealing.
"Have you remembered?" Nie Jinlong repeated the movements to Xiong Caiwei.
Xiong Caiwei nodded, "I remember."
She had spent the past six months perfecting every detail of her movements; now she just needed to execute them smoothly. Xiong Caiwei called over the martial arts actor who would be sparring with her, and the two of them warmed up first.
After Nie Jinlong finished instructing Xiong Caiwei, he continued to give instructions to Yilan.
Yilan is tall and has the longest legs, so Nie Jinlong designed various kicking techniques for her, including downward splits, sideways leg sweeps, high leg sweeps, etc.
In order to make Yilan's legs look longer, Nie Jinlong specially selected a shorter martial arts actor, who made Yilan's character more distinctive.
"An'er, when you jump up and grab the horizontal bar later, try to move freely and prioritize safety..." Yuan An'er has the strongest martial arts skills, and the moves designed for her by Nie Jinlong are the most difficult and dangerous, including various difficult aerial moves.
