The King of Soft Rice in Chinese Entertainment

Chapter 153: Faster Metabolism

Time flew by and it was already July. Xu Jiuyang had basically met the standards for basic physical training and fighting action training in the crew of The Legend of the Condor Heroes, and had already found a stable to start practicing horse riding.

To be honest, he was quite surprised when he heard about the crew's arrangement. Perhaps because he played Yang Kang in this life, he recalled some gossip about the 03 version of The Legend of the Condor Heroes, saying that Li started learning horse riding and archery when he arrived at the grassland to shoot the Mongolian scenes.

Zhang Da Huzi is now renting a horse farm in Beijing for actors to train. It seems that Li Yunxin has invested a lot of money in it, and I don’t know if she can make it back.

Xu Jiuyang quickly stopped thinking about this problem. People were making hundreds of thousands of dollars every minute, so why would they care about such a small investment?
During this period, he and Li Yunxin also talked on the phone several times, and she was basically asking for praise, such as how many shipments were made to South Korea, the United States, the mainland, etc., and it sounded like the situation was very good.

Xu Jiuyang didn't say anything else, but reminded her of two things. First, start contacting major record companies and start discussing copyright issues; second, keep a close eye on Apple and make various contingency plans if they attack.

When faced with Li Yunxin's interview invitation, he declined on the grounds that he had already joined the crew and was undergoing targeted training.

Just kidding, I had played Dong Qing thoroughly before, and it hasn't been long since then. Maybe she has told her everything. It would be so awkward to meet her in this situation.

Well, the main reason is that after we started practicing horse riding, there was no distinction between male and female groups, so Li Dabai could be seen at training every day.

She had a good chat with actresses such as Yang Rong, Asru, He Qing and Jiang Shan, with a smile on her face, and seemed to have come out of the haze, but as soon as Xu Jiuyang tried to get close to her, she would immediately frown and stay away.

If Da Meiyu hadn't told him in text messages every day that the current situation was okay and that Li Dabai had never quit the crew, he would have started to get anxious again.

Or maybe Sister Yuanyuan is really good to me… Xu Jiuyang sighed inwardly. I don't know why, but I always feel like Da Meiyuan's entanglement with me is more about gaining writing inspiration?

After practicing like this for almost a week, Xu Jiuyang's horsemanship became quite good. Not only Zhang Da Huzi, but even the riding teacher was surprised.

"Maybe it's because I'm young and my metabolism is faster." This is what Xu Jiuyang said.

This was also his response to Zhao Jian and Ma Chengyu's questions. As for the connection between a fast metabolism and horsemanship… Just think about your current state. With a little exercise, you'll have muscles. And when it comes to sex, you have a threshold that can't be raised, and a stamina that can't be lowered…

Damn, if I said I have a fast metabolism, then I have a fast metabolism!

Unfortunately, this was not enough to allow the crew to start work earlier. Just because he practiced quickly didn't mean others could practice quickly too.

But the good news is that he has more energy to deal with other things, such as the novel of "The Understudy".

Although Xu Jiuyang's writing style is decent, especially in recent years, he has published science fiction novels continuously, which is a great improvement compared to his previous life. However, he is still completely clueless about how to write scripts. Even after reading relevant books, he can only talk about it on paper.

I decided to simply write a novel, or a detailed outline, clearly explaining the time, place, characters, the corresponding plot, and the different characteristics of the characters in different periods, and then send it to Mingdeng Pictures via email.

Although he had been doing this before starting training, he had no idea what to do at the beginning, so he wrote very slowly.

After finally exposing his multiple-robin affair in front of his girlfriend, he suddenly felt something, and with Dong Qing's "cooperation", his ideas flowed like a spring, and training took up most of his time again.

Now, training can be put on hold for a while, so I can naturally spend more energy on the script.

It was almost mid-July when Xu Jiuyang finally sent the first version of the novel, which he was reading as a script, to the designated email address.

"You take a look first, and we can discuss it later if there are any problems." He called Tang Wei.

"Okay, Mr. Xu, is there anything else I can do for you?" Tang Wei asked respectfully.

"Not yet." Xu Jiuyang frowned. "Well, Mr. Xu, I have something I'd like to ask you," Tang Wei added. "Considering that you might be involved in the filming of The Legend of the Condor Heroes, but the script isn't due until the end of the year, we'd like to send someone over to act as your assistant and help you with the script. Is that okay?"

She quickly added, "Of course, we pay her salary, and Mr. Xu can ask her to do anything."

"Well... let me think about it." Xu Jiuyang replied after thinking about it.

Tang Wei on the other end said "Oh" and seemed a little disappointed, but quickly said, "Okay, then Mr. Xu, can you give me an answer within a week?"

"No problem." Xu Jiuyang ended the call, but his brows were still furrowed.

Is it an illusion? I always feel that the other party is speaking in the tone of Dong Qing and Tu Jingwei. Could it be that she is an undercover agent sent by Li Yunxin to Angela?
He shook his head and threw this inexplicable thought out of his mind. Perhaps he had been in contact with Tu Jingwei too much in the past few days.

As for Zhulong Games, after nearly two months of public beta testing, they have decided to start charging for "Legend" at the end of this month.

So now that he has free time, he would run over to take a look from time to time. After all, he got 5% of the shares for free.

Again, I don’t expect to reach the level of Shanda at the same time in my previous life, but as long as I can reach half of it, it can be considered a victory.

Then...then Tu Jingwei tempted him in various ways in the company, including but not limited to asking him if he needed special services, or showing off her curves wrapped in her slim uniform, and even lifting up the hem of her skirt with her back to him.

Xu Jiuyang was only half sure whether Dong Qing had told Li Yunxin about what happened before, but he was 100% sure whether she had told Tu Jingwei about what happened before.

Although she took the initiative last time, she still had some sense of propriety. This time, she was completely trying to seduce him in various ways.

So? So of course I still had to apologize verbally in the office.

"Fortunately, there were only two times, otherwise..." Xu Jiuyang shook his head, as if he was thankful for something.

However, once some things start, it’s just a matter of speed.

Maybe he knew it, but wanted to play the ostrich and not admit it.

The phone vibrated at this moment. Xu Jiuyang quickly picked it up and took a look, then smiled: "Sister Yuanyuan, I'm at the coffee shop on the way from Dingcheng Road to Beihuqu Road..."

About ten minutes later, with the sound of ding-dong, Gao Yuanyuan finally appeared in front of Xu Jiuyang again after more than half a month.

The red gradient double-breasted top and beige knee-length skirt still have that simple yet literary style.

After seeing him, a smile appeared on her peaceful face. She immediately trotted over, sat down, and without saying a word, she held his face and kissed him passionately.

"Sister Yuanyuan?" Xu Jiuyang was a little confused and called out subconsciously after they separated.

Gao Yuanyuan's face turned pink, and she seemed embarrassed: "I'm sorry, I just..."

She didn't finish her words, and there was a look of annoyance between her brows, but she looked bright and charming.

It was the first time Xu Jiuyang saw her like this. He took a deep breath and grabbed her hand: "It's okay, I understand."
