Chapter 77 You are all younger brothers
Liu Jing picked up a sword casually, weighed it in his hand, and frowned secretly, it turned out to be a prop.

But this was nothing. He just threw it casually, and with a "puff" sound, the sandbag more than ten meters away burst open with a loud noise.

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. The kid was quite capable. Was this just a show of power? That was all.

"My name is Liu Jing. Liu is... um... the Liu of Liu Lei, and Jing is the Jing of scenery. I am the martial arts instructor of our play. You can call me martial arts teacher or Teacher Liu." Liu Jing was very satisfied, the effect was like special effects.

"Then can we call you coach?" Jia Jingwen asked.

"As long as you don't call me teacher, you can do anything else." Liu Jing waved his hand. "For the next half month, you will spend most of your time with me. Now, introduce yourself and talk about your representative works."

That was his idol. Even Qin Shihuang couldn't save such a broken country.

You look at me, I look at you, and we all have the same thought: this kid is so cocky.

It's not that they look down on him, they just don't take him seriously. There must be a reason why the crew arranged for a kid to be the action director.

Gao Yuanyuan knew that the child in front of her was no ordinary child, and his masterpiece was more gorgeous than any other child present.

So, she asked with a smile, "Coach, you should introduce your masterpiece first."

Others thought that Gao Yuanyuan was making things difficult for Liu Jing, and they started to make a fuss, but suddenly they began to like Gao Yuanyuan.

"Hmm! That makes sense. Let me throw out some ideas. I am fourteen years old today. I made my debut at the age of four and it has been ten years since then. I haven't encountered life and death in ten years. Thinking about it carefully, it is quite unforgettable. The first play I worked with Zhou Xingxing was a minor role in "The Legend of the Return of Chen Zhen". The second play was "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". I played the childhood Liu Chan and had few lines. The third play was a collaboration with Li Lianjie, Zhang Min and Gigi Lai, playing the young Zhang Wuji in "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber: The Demon Cult Master". The fourth play was still a collaboration with Li Lianjie, playing the young Zhang Junbao in "Tai Chi Master". The fifth play was a collaboration with Li Lianjie and Qiu Shuzhen, playing Hong Wendi in "The New Five Ancestors of Shaolin". Then I worked with Chow Yun-fat in "God of Gamblers 2", with Li Lianjie and Anita Mui in "A Letter to Dad", with Andy Lau in "God of Gamblers 2", and with Uncle Tat and Collin Chou in "Peter Pan"..."

Liu Jing put his hands behind his back, his voice rising and falling with full of emotion.

He walked around the room with his distinctive gait.

The crowd, who were originally nonchalant, were just looking at the joke at first. But as they listened, their expressions gradually became serious, as if they were watching the rise and fall of Hong Kong movies.

Liu Jing also fell into memories, and unknowingly witnessed the glory and decline of Hong Kong films. Is there still a future for Hong Kong films? Oh, it seems that I am from the mainland.

Whether they have a future or not, if the sky falls, there will be someone taller to support it. It’s none of my business.

"In 1996, Big Brother had already established himself in Hollywood, Chow Yun-fat was still trying to find his way in Hollywood, and Li Lianjie was still confused in Hong Kong. That year I went to Hollywood and had the honor of starring in Home Alone 3. The following year Big Brother found me and we worked together on Rush Hour. The third year, the director of The Sixth Sense and I were acquaintances, and I had starred in his Kids by the Dozen. I was also nominated for an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for this drama. This is the highest honor I have received as an actor since I started filming." When Liu Jing said this, he suddenly let out a long sigh.

Hollywood is very realistic. They asked John Woo and Tsui Hark to make movies because they are good at shooting action movies and gun battle movies. They asked Cheng Long and Li Lianjie to work with them because they are good at kung fu and there is a market for action movies.

When you are replaceable, when you can't make them money, you are useless to Hollywood.

Liu Jing feels that there is nothing wrong with Hollywood abiding by market rules.

The sound of sighs echoed in the house, and the silence was audible.

Everyone was already attracted by Liu Jing's speech. Jia Jingwen couldn't help but ask, "Coach, what next?"

"And then? Life is not always smooth sailing, and you won't be proud forever. In 2000, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone was about to be put on the big screen, and director Chris Columbus invited me to audition. He thought that after I put on makeup, I would be very suitable to play Malfoy. I took the audition seriously, but of course I was unsuccessful. First of all, the author determined that the actor could only be British. Secondly, I am not American. Finally, I am a Chinese child. I could put on makeup when I was young, but I couldn't put on makeup when I was older. Since then, I have never filmed a movie again. I returned to school and studied hard... um... hard, ahem, studied hard." Liu Jing let out a sigh of relief. Ten years had been so long, and there were so many stories.

He secretly calculated the time. When would the filming of Harry Potter start? He should go visit the magical girl.

Although he only got one tenth of the reward, it was a big production and there were too many people working for it. During the audition, he seduced the leading actress and took her in as his apprentice.

clap clap clap...

I don’t know who started clapping first, or maybe everyone just clapped at the same time.

Liu Jing was puzzled to find that his superb swordsmanship did not shock everyone. Instead, he impressed everyone by talking about his masterpiece.

Gao Yuanyuan stood at the back, clapping and winking at Liu Jing.

Liu Jing nodded. This girl is smart and tomorrow’s free time will definitely be used on her.

"Coach, you've had a wonderful ten years." Jia Jingwen was envious, but also felt sad.

What was she doing ten years ago? She went to Beijing Film Academy, but her family's business went bankrupt and she dropped out to pay off the debt.

The debt was not paid off until the new century.

In order to pay off her debts, she did everything she should and shouldn't do, everything she could and couldn't do.

Looking back over the past ten years, it is a history of paying off debts.

Liu Jing didn’t know all this, otherwise he would have regarded him as a close friend, because he had also been paying off his debts during these ten years.

"Coach, why did you suddenly come here to be our martial arts instructor?" Gao Yuanyuan looked confused, as if she really knew nothing.

"Zhang Min is my friend for many years, and she invited me here. I originally recommended big brothers Hong Jinbao and Yuan Kui, but she said that our crew was poor. I'm a cheap martial arts director, and I have to guest-star as the young Zhang Wuji. I have to work two jobs but only get paid for one. If I hadn't been very optimistic about this play, I would not have come to endure this suffering." Liu Jing shook his head, feeling inexpressibly sad.

He played the young Zhang Wuji as a guest appearance and received no salary. However, he was paid a lot for the martial arts director, a full 100,000 yuan, which was higher than the salary of many actors.

Gao Yuanyuan curled her lips and said, "What the hell are you looking forward to? A month ago, you didn't even know about this play. If Jingxing hadn't invested in it, hehe...

"Are you still playing Zhang Wuji?" Jia Jingwen was a little surprised, because from the information she received, the young Zhang Wuji was played by Shi Xiaolong.

Nine years ago, when Liu Jing signed with Hong Kong Everbright, Shi Xiaolong signed with Taiwan Changhong Film and Television.

Compared to Liu Jing, who has been in Hong Kong for a long time, Jia Jingwen is more familiar with Shi Xiaolong.

"Maybe the director saw me play the same role before." Liu Jing stopped in front of the crowd and stopped walking back and forth. "Whether you accept it or not, everyone here is my younger brother. When I became famous, some of you had just debuted, and some were still working hard. Some of you are popular singers and hot artists, but in this play, in this occasion, you are all my students. The version of The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber ten years ago was a masterpiece, and I believe everyone is under pressure. I hope everyone can understand and cooperate with each other to make our play a good one."

Among everyone, Jia Jingwen is the shortest, only 1.6 meters tall.

Liu Jing is about the same height as Jia Jingwen, but no one dares to look down on him anymore.

It is still unclear whether he can be a martial arts director.

But no one can match the brilliant achievements of the young man in front of him.
