Huayu has been doing one good deed a day since 2001

Chapter 53: Working overtime until the early morning again [asking for monthly tickets]

After Li Wenyu and Zhou Xingchi agreed on how to promote Kung Fu, they continued filming "The Sound Tuner", and Brother Xing also stayed to watch the show.

When he learned that Yang Mi had worked with him 10 years ago, Zhou Xingchi began to pay more attention to Yang Mi.

…………

Time is like water.

It was the early morning of another new day, and Li Wenyu was working on Interstellar in front of his computer. Occasionally, there would be a slight snoring sound from Pang Bing who was sleeping too deeply in the guest room.

The sound engineer started filming for more than half a month, and Pang Bing's "Unforgettable" also started filming on March 3. They each went to their own set to film and finished work in the evening.

If there are night scenes, we will arrange in advance to shoot the night scenes together and return to the hotel to rest during the day.

The progress of both crews was super smooth.

Lao Li’s crew has a lot of veteran actors, and I can’t forget that the male lead is Liu Qingyun, who is also a veteran actor.

The sound of typing on the keyboard was like a piece of music, light and fast. When the phone rang with a text message alert, Li Wenyu picked it up and saw that it was from Sister Xin.

"Spicy hot pot, want to make an appointment?"

Li Wenyu almost burst out laughing. It was already past midnight on March 3th, and Li Jiaxin had already figured out his general schedule.

She knew the meaning of the meme about a meal of spicy hot pot costing a few dollars 12 years earlier than mainland netizens.

After replying to Li Jiaxin's text message, he packed up and went out.

Do one good deed every day.

Host: Li Wenyu, 21 years old.

Fitness, (169/100).

Writing, (92/100).

Screenwriter, (86/100).

Director, (85/100).

Driving, (89/100).

……

Acting, (77/100).

Cantonese, (79/100).

English, (82/100).

Driving, (75/100).

Anti-tracking and anti-reconnaissance, (71/100).

……

Apart from the attributes that are constantly added to fitness, he still has 11 free attributes.

When Li Wenyu drove a Mercedes to a familiar address, he felt sad that Li Jiaxin's English ability was only 79 points, less than 80.

But recently, with the bonus of his increasingly taller and stronger fitness promoting the evolution of his brain, he and the other party learned English and broke through 8 without adding any points directly.

The 80-character team is the minimum standard for starting a national team, and is moving towards world-class level step by step.

"With my English level, once I've written Chinese versions of 'Slumdog Millionaire' and 'Interstellar', I can become a translator myself and publish English versions!"

Meeting a good teacher like Axin, who often has vivid and clever, in-depth and easy-to-understand detailed teaching conversations, he has made great progress.

Of course, once a skill breaks 80, then if you don't add any points and just rely on your brain to cheat? At this stage, the efficiency has already plummeted.

Whether it is national level or world level, it depends too much on talent.

After a while, the car arrived at a villa area in a residential area. Li Wenyu stopped the car more than 200 meters in advance and walked to avoid the paparazzi who were still lurking outside Ah Xin's house and in cars on the roadside late at night to take pictures.

He easily sneaked into the villa. With a fitness level of 169, he could learn daily skills such as climbing over walls and breaking into houses as easily as walking on flat ground.

He jumped over the two or three meter high wall and grabbed the edge of it as quietly as he did martial arts, with super efficiency.

There were no main lights in the living room of this detached villa, only dim orange lights.

Seeing him walk in clutching two glasses of red wine, Li Jiaxin said in amazement, "Ayu, I'm not kidding you this time, nor am I exaggerating. My skin has been getting better and better lately." "I feel a year or two younger than when Liu and I just broke up. Is this really the result of the good mood and positive attitude that comes with finally getting over the trauma?"

"I recently ran into that old witch Guan Zhilin while shopping. She asked me what skincare products I used. How could I possibly answer her..."

"I used to consider going to Tokyo to get those age-defying injections that cost over 100,000 yuan each."

Li Wenyu almost spit out his food.

He took the red wine and said with a smile, "I think my English level has surpassed yours. I won't come to learn from you if you don't have anything to teach me."

"But don't get any cosmetic injections or anything like that. They have serious side effects. You'd be better off exercising more. Even if you're popular, outdoor exercise can easily get you mobbed."

Look at Andy Lau and Lu Liangwei, they will still look so cool when they are in their sixties or seventies. It is much more reliable to exercise more and exercise on your own than to spend a lot of money to maintain your face.

How many female stars who used to rush to get injections once they turned 30 ended up with facial disfigurement.

Li Jiaxin was stunned for two seconds before she started to complain, "Bah, scumbag, we're still working together on an idol drama and you want to run away? Oh, by the way, my custom-made clothes have arrived."

"What kind of vision do you have? When I was filming Unbeaten in the East and A Chinese Ghost Story 2, I didn't look good in ancient costumes at all. What's so worth studying about these costumes?"

Despite all the complaints, Ah Xin still went to change into her costume to make it easier for her to get into the role.

As a director, he is working overtime on a voluntary basis to help Li Jiaxin with her acting skills, and it’s already one o’clock in the morning!

But after several months of working on her acting skills and reviewing the DVDs, she pointed out that her performance was not up to par and did not stand out.

Doing it a few more times in real life to review your performance would also help.

There are no added touches here, it is truly an orthodox teaching of revisiting old films, analyzing, discussing, correcting and commenting on them.

At most, Sister Xin was often moved to tears and criticized herself for being too immersed in the role.

…………

It was past five in the morning.

When Li Wenyu drove back to the hotel, he confirmed one thing again: even if he later watched Hollywood movies with original English soundtracks without subtitles, he would continue to learn English.

The effect is minimal.

"If you want to bring your English to world-class levels, you can only improve it. It's necessary. A level of over 90 points is needed to write best-selling books more smoothly and with better quality."

"When The Tuner hits the box office this summer, I'll publish Interstellar first. Then I'll travel to India for half a month, and then I can publish Slumdog Millionaire in the fall and winter."

Do these two books need marketing?
The internet trolls spread the word and let the world know that the two books have been published and are on sale.

There would be no need for the original screenwriter and writer to come up with inspiration in 2003.

India is a very evil place, so he plans to hire two or three bodyguards to go there and take a look around Mumbai.

…………

A few days later, it was Qingming Festival on April 4th.

The crew was on holiday today and no filming was started. Li Wenyu had just finished breakfast and was about to take it back to the guest room when he saw three figures walking towards him from not far away.

The leader who came over was Liu Dehua. "Ayu, I'm sending you some money. The box office share for the next installment of Miracle has arrived. This movie has taken advantage of Bingbing and Azhi's fame."

The Big Shot was released on the 2th day of the twelfth lunar month, and Hua Ge's Miracle Boy was released on the first day of the Lunar New Year on February 12th. After a month of screening, it raked in 2500 million Hong Kong dollars in box office in Hong Kong Island and 3900 million in mainland China!
So far, the movie has only accumulated 4100 million, which is not as high as the original box office, so it was taken off the screen.

Brother Hua also made money with this movie.

For the full drama, apart from the salaries of Xian Jie Azhi and Pang Bing, the other expenses are very low, but the results are really good.

The top ten box office rankings of Hong Kong Island in 2002 were "The Original Track", with Hua Ge's "Li Gu Li Gu" taking in over 1900 million in the New Year, and "Wonder" taking in over 2500 million, already ranking third for the whole year.

The first one is Infernal Affairs, and the second one is Zhang Yimou’s Hero!

As long as Infernal Affairs and Hero are not released, Wonder will always be at the top of the box office charts.

Li Wenyu laughed, "Brother Hua, have you finished filming Infernal Affairs?"

Liu Dehua stepped over to hand over the check, "We've finished filming. We're both quick shooters. Soon, your Tsuen Wan by the Sea and Wonder will both be competing for Best Screenplay at the Academy Awards. Only Ah Xing's Shaolin Soccer will be our biggest rival."
