After being defeated by Qingmei, I became a top player

In the banquet hall after the premiere, every time someone around Sun Yat-sen left, another would immediately take his place.

That's a lot of fun.

Chen Shuren originally thought that he would not receive much attention, but what he did not expect was that an old man grabbed him and chatted with him for most of the day.

"Mr. Cai, I'm really just practicing casually."

Chen Shuren looked at the creator of "Dragon and Tiger Leap Fist" with a wry smile.

As soon as the old man arrived, he pulled him aside and asked who he learned boxing from and at what age he started practicing.

Even if Chen Shuren wanted to leave under the pretext of talking to someone else, he couldn't leave.

Because of the old man's reputation, other people who wanted to talk to Chen Shuren all avoided him.

Can't afford to offend.

"Practice casually? If you can practice to this level casually, then you are a martial arts prodigy that is rarely seen in a century!"

Cai Yuanzhong had an expression that said, "Don't lie to me."

Seeing the old man like this, Chen Shuren nodded: "I should be the martial arts prodigy you mentioned."

"Oh? Then show me some of your other skills, and I'll see what else you've learned!"

Chen Shuren paused. What had he learned?
He only learned one fist, the Dragon-Leaping-Tiger-Leaping Fist!
“That’s all I learned.”

Chen Shuren told the old man the truth, but the old man still didn't let him go.

"Then I'll have someone teach you one. Let me see how many hours it takes you to get started."

The old man said as he was about to look for someone.

Chen Shuren held him back.

"I'm not. I'm not a martial arts genius! Old man, I don't have that ability."

Chen Shuren grabbed the old man, looking helpless.

"No? Then tell me who you learned it from."

"..."

Chen Shuren was completely speechless. How could he not explain it clearly?
Seeing that Chen Shuren didn't say anything, Cai Yuanzhong glared at him.

"You kid, you are a good martial artist, why don't you respect the elderly? Come on, let me teach you a lesson on behalf of your master!"

When Chen Shuren saw Cai Yuanzhong displaying the Dragon and Tiger Leap Fist stance, he was stunned.

This old man is a bit unreasonable!

"Cai Yuanzhong, you are already 78 years old, why are you still acting like a scoundrel here?"

Chen Shuren turned his head, wanting to see which god had come down to earth to save him.

"Who! Who said I was a rogue?"

Cai Yuanzhong turned his head and saw an energetic old man walking towards him.

"Uh, Lao Zhao, why did you come to Yongzhou to watch a movie instead of staying in Liangzhou?"

When Cai Yuanzhong saw the person coming, his expression froze.

"I was invited, what about you?"

After Zhao Liqing nodded to Chen Shuren, he looked at Cai Yuanzhong.

"When I treated you, I should have shown you how thick your skin was to do such a thing."

Cai Yuanzhong's old face turned red.

"I have an invitation!"

"who?"

"Don't worry."

Cai Yuanzhong waved his hand, and seeing that Chen Shuren was about to leave, he took a step forward and grabbed Chen Shuren's arm.

"Where are you going kid? You haven't finished talking yet!"

Chen Shuren was caught and turned to look at Zhao Liqing.

Zhao Liqing understood, reached out and took out a small cloth bag from his arms, opened a corner, and pulled out a silver needle.

While Cai Yuanzhong's attention was on Chen Shuren, a needle was inserted into Cai Yuanzhong's wrist.

"hiss!"

Cai Yuanzhong was caught off guard and his hand shook, causing Chen Shuren to escape.

"Zhao Liqing, what are you doing!"

Cai Yuanzhong glared at him angrily.

"Nothing, your wrist is hurt, I'll treat it for you."

Zhao Liqing withdrew his hand with a smile.

"I see you just want to help that guy. What benefit did that guy give you? Or do you know that guy's master?"

The younger generation following the two old men saw how they quarreled when they met. They looked at each other and showed sympathy for each other.

"I don't know him, but he's a good guy. Why are you bothering him for no reason?"

"good?"

Cai Yuanzhong was stunned.

The Zhao Liqing he knew would not praise others casually, especially a junior.

This forced Cai Yuanzhong to re-examine the young man.

On the other side, Chen Shuren was about to leave the banquet hall after dodging Cai Yuanzhong.

Unexpectedly, someone else stood in front of him.

Looking at the young man in front of him, Chen Shuren frowned.

It seems, as if, I've seen it somewhere before?

By the way, I remembered it.

Chen Shuren's face turned cold.

When Chu Qiang saw Chen Shuren’s expression, he knew what was going on.

"Hello, my name is Chu Qiang. I was wrong about what happened back then. If there is a chance, can I treat you guys to a meal?"

Looking at Chu Qiang's outstretched hand, Chen Shuren's expression improved a little, but his brows were still furrowed.

"No, anything else?"

Chen Shuren felt a little uncomfortable when he recalled how ruthlessly Chu Qiang attacked Meng Changfeng.

If he hadn't arrived at that time, Meng Changfeng might have had to stay in the hospital for several months.

Faced with such a person, Chen Shuren could accept his apology, but forget about making friends with him.

Seeing Chu Qiang stunned, Chen Shuren saw that he had nothing to say, turned around and walked around him, then quietly went out through the gate.

Looking at Chen Shuren's departing back, Chu Qiang wanted to get angry, but when he thought about it, wasn't this all his fault?
Now that he has been conquered by "Kung Fu", he wants to make friends with Chen Shuren. However, Chen Shuren is not one of those little brothers who follow him around, so he will not be flattered by his kindness.

"Hey."

Chu Qiang felt that he had matured.

At this moment, Chu Qiang saw Sun Wen smiling at him from a distance, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Yes, Chen Shuren is not good enough, but there is still Sun Wen, right?"

Once he gets together with Sun Yat-sen, it will not be impossible for him to make peace with Chen Shuren in the future, and even meeting Mu Linsen will not be a dream.

Thinking of this, Chu Qiang took a glass of wine and came over.

……

As soon as Chen Shuren walked out of the banquet hall, Tang Yingcheng followed him out.

"Phew, I'm really not suitable for this kind of occasion."

Chen Shuren breathed a sigh of relief.

"You'll get used to it eventually, but remember, don't drink!"

Tang Yingcheng's instructions made Chen Shuren look embarrassed.

"You still remember it!"

Tang Yingcheng glanced at Chen Shuren and said, "Believe it or not, if you drink yourself to death in the future, I will be driven into depression by your fans."

"..."

"So, looking at you is also for my own good."

"alright."

The two of them walked towards the garage together. On the way, Chen Shuren asked Tang Yingcheng what plans he had next. "You know the big plan, 'Run Together'."

When Chen Shuren heard the song "Run Together", he pinched his forehead.

“How many states are they this time?”

"I asked Sister Zeng, and she said it was the other four states besides Zhongzhou."

Tang Yingcheng said this and took out his cell phone again.

"It's May now, and there are still seven or eight months to go. One state per month and a half is not too tight. If you want to relax a little, I can postpone other activities for you during this period. Anyway, you are not short of money."

Chen Shuren nodded, and then asked, "What if you still want to make a movie?"

Tang Yingcheng stopped what he was doing.

Turn around and look.

"Then there's something to talk about. Choose a way to die. Do you want to die suddenly or die of exhaustion?"

"...Haha, Brother Cruise, you are really interesting."

Chen Shuren laughed, but Tang Yingcheng didn't.

“Well, in that case, the second half of the year should be spent on Running Together in other states.

That's all, take it easy, but I can still do some novels and comics when I have free time, since I have a lot of spare time anyway."

Tang Yingcheng had no objection to Chen Shuren's arrangement.

After getting in the car, Tang Yingcheng asked again before driving away: "Will you still go to the subsequent promotion of Kung Fu?"

"Can you not go?"

"It shouldn't be possible. You are the lead actor."

"Then you still ask me!"

Chen Shuren stared at Tang Yingcheng who raised the corner of his mouth.

……

After the premieres of "The Grandmaster" and "Kung Fu", information about the two began to explode on the Internet again.

However, "The Grandmaster" relied entirely on money, while "Kung Fu" relied entirely on the audience's awareness.

This led to the internet being flooded with publicity for "The Grandmaster" before the film was officially released.

Things like "the new founder of ancient martial arts", "the martial arts film that is twenty years ahead", "the culmination of Daxia martial arts films", etc.

Not only will those who haven't seen the movie be confused, even those who have seen it will be confused.

“Is this movie really that good?”

This is what everyone who is interested is thinking.

So, when it was actually released the next day, the attendance rate of "The Grandmaster" blossomed across the board.

Yongzhou 100%, Qing and Yang 95%, Jingzhou and Liangzhou 90%, Yanzhou 85%, Hanzhou and Fuso 70%.

In just one day, the box office of "The Grandmaster" reached 200 million!

When someone saw on the software that the total box office of a movie that had been released for 20 days was only 1.9 million, the news that "The Grandmaster" would break billion at the box office began to spread.

Feng Yue and all the crew members were very happy when they heard that this rumor was not spread by them.

But later, news came out that the box office had exceeded 4 billion and 5 billion.

They were in a bit of a pickle.

According to the situation on the first day, 4 billion can be a try, but 5 billion?

This is pure flattery.

However, Feng Yue did not ask for any explanation.

First use this popularity to gain some fame, and then promote someone to dispel the rumors.

The fact that "The Grandmaster" almost broke Daxia's first-day box office record of 300 million did not cause Feng Yue much fluctuation.

It was not until he saw that "Kung Fu" only earned 1.2 million yuan on the first day that a wanton smile appeared on his face.

Although 1.2 million is a top-tier figure in Daxia film history, in Feng Yue's eyes, it is just a defeated general.

"This is just the beginning."

Feng Yue took out his cell phone and called his old friend Gao Nanhua.

"Hey, Lao Gao, what are you doing? Come out and have some tea, haha."

"Oh, it looks like Director Feng is very happy about the movie."

Gao Nanhua's teasing voice made the smile on Feng Yue's face fade a little.

"It's just a pity that it didn't break the first-day box office record. By the way, did you watch your kid's movie? How did you feel about it?"

"1.2 million box office, wow, there are talented people in every generation. He is a capable person, but he is a little young. When he reaches our age, he will definitely achieve great success."

When Gao Nanhua heard Feng Yue's words, he just laughed.

"I've watched Kung Fu, and I've also watched your The Grandmaster. To be honest, I like your movies."

Gao Nanhua’s words stunned Feng Yue.

Could it be that Gao Nanhua also knows that Chen Shuren’s movies are not good?
Feng Yue felt refreshed instantly.

Although he only defeated a young man that Gao Nanhua liked, the feeling of winning over Gao Nanhua in some aspect was really great.

"Haha, yeah, I like my movies too. Now that you mention it, I want to watch Kung Fu."

"Oh? You didn't see it?" Gao Nanhua was surprised. "I thought you saw it."

"Back then, you never missed a single movie of your competitors."

"That's right. After so many years in Zhongzhou, my horizons have become higher. It's normal that I don't like movies from other states."

"That's it. Go watch Kung Fu. Even though I don't think either you or I will like it, there should be something you can learn from it."

Gao Nanhua's words made Feng Yue sneer on his face.

study?

Gao Nanhua knows very well that the person he favors cannot win, but he is still trying to pick a fight with him?

Is he so hypocritical now?
Feng Yue suddenly felt bored.

"Got it, I'll go check it out, bye."

Putting down his phone, Feng Yue walked to the window with a new ashtray and lit a cigarette.

"Sigh~"

"The Gao Nanhua who had always insisted on his own path has also changed. Everyone, there is no going back."

After smoking, Feng Yue called his assistant.

"Order a ticket for tomorrow's Kung Fu... Never mind, I'll book the entire theater."

the next day,
Just as Feng Yue and his assistant walked into the cinema, discussions about "Kung Fu" had already begun to emerge on the Internet.

"Fuck, have you guys watched Kung Fu? I heard someone say it was hilarious yesterday, so I thought it was a comedy so I didn't watch it. But after watching it tonight, I almost died of excitement!"

"Yeah, if I had known Kung Fu was so good, I should have watched the first show!"

"Why do I feel like the protagonist of Kung Fu is funnier than Gao Shaojun, the protagonist of The Ancient Martial Arts Master? Is my brain broken?"

"You're in your right mind, because I feel the same way!"

"I have to say, you guys are being really conservative. The protagonist is not funnier than Gao Shaojun. In the whole drama, I can pick out ten people who are comparable to Gao Shaojun!"

"What are you talking about! This is a martial arts film! The comedy is just a embellishment. Don't you think the martial arts scenes in this movie are awesome? And it's not just a little bit awesome, it's awesome once in a while. Damn it, it's awesome over and over again!

Who can understand how excited I was when I saw the protagonist falling from the sky and delivering that palm strike at the end! "

"Yes, the key is that this is a martial arts film set in a modern context. It really refreshed my worldview!"

Wave after wave of people praised "Kung Fu" for its good comedy effects, praised its martial arts scenes, and there were even people who were interested in the supporting roles.

But no matter how many these people there are, they cannot outweigh another voice.

"Chen Shuren and Sun Wen, you who destroyed my classics, come out and get yourself killed!"

God knows how deeply those people were hurt when they heard that the landlord and the landlady were the Return of the Condor Heroes.

The Little Dragon Girl, who originally existed only in imagination, now reminds people who have watched "Kung Fu" of the landlady's face with a curling iron and a cigarette in her mouth.

How could he meet their Little Dragon Girl in his dream?

Who can bear such injustice?

then,

'Chen Laogou' and 'Sun Laogou' came into being!
