Top Chinese celebrity: Debuted from Running Man

Chapter 146 Gu Qing VS Huang Xiaoming

……

……

——July 31,
Saturday, 2 PM.

For young men and women in small counties, the few entertainment venues they have during holidays are movie theaters.

On the third floor of Xingfu Blue Ocean Cinema, LED screens are displaying trailers for movies scheduled for the Qixi Festival.

"Baby, I've booked the tickets for The White-Haired Witch. It starts in half an hour. Shall we go downstairs to the supermarket to buy some food and drinks?"

A boy is hugging his girlfriend.

"I don't want to watch 'The Witch,' I want to watch 'Brotherhood of Blades'!"

Li Juan, sporting mint green nail polish, suddenly poked at the electronic screen.

"Brotherhood of Blades? What kind of weird name is that? A movie about embroidery?"

Chen Hao couldn't understand. He glanced at the poster and didn't recognize any of the characters. "The movie 'The White-Haired Witch' in the next theater is at least a classic IP. Aren't Huang Xiaoming and Bingbing better than these people?"

"You don't know about the Flying Fish Robe and the Embroidered Uniform Guard?"

"You always brag to me about history."

"The Embroidered Uniform Guard... I understand now. It's the Eastern Depot and Western Depot, the inspection agencies of Emperor Zhu of the Ming Dynasty."

Chen Hao suddenly realized, "Is this a crime thriller?"

"It's a martial arts film, and my younger brother is in it!"

Li Juan proudly pulled out her phone and swiped to show a still of Gu Qing from the drama. In the picture, the young man stood in the rainy night with a knife in his hand, his black cloak fluttering in the wind.

"Is this Gu Qing?"

Chen Hao looked at the poster with a strange expression. Gu Qing, who was standing next to the male and female leads, looked strange. "He doesn't look like him. I thought he was some newcomer in the entertainment industry. He looks quite handsome and not effeminate at all."

"You're the sissy! My brother is handsome!"

Li Juan pinched her boyfriend's waist in an annoyed tone, "Do you want to see the Embroidered Spring Blade?"

"Look, look, I actually quite like martial arts films."

The combination of martial arts and history also greatly interested Chen Hao.

not to mention,
He still really likes the female lead, Liu Shishi, on the poster.

As for the quality of the film
Chen Hao didn't have high expectations.

With a wildly popular young male star and a top-tier actress, how high-quality dramas can they produce?
The previous films by Wu and Lu have already given some moviegoers a heads-up.

Not to mention this is a martial arts drama; how many young actors can film action scenes well these days?
This is a guaranteed terrible movie!
I changed my receipt and went downstairs to buy milk tea and popcorn.

The young couple went to the movie theater.

"The occupancy rate is quite high, and there are a lot of girls."

Chen Hao sat down in the fourth row, a seat on the side, and looked around in surprise as the seats were almost full.

Many of the girls who came were wearing Hanfu (traditional Han clothing), and they were so radiant that it was hard to look away.

In particular, there was a tall girl who slightly lifted her skirt, revealing that her calves were covered with stockings.

"hiss--"

A sharp pain shot through his lower back again, and Chen Hao gasped. Noticing his girlfriend's unfriendly gaze, he gave an awkward smile and said, "Baby, you're the prettiest."

"Shut up, watch the movie!"

Li Juan snorted.

As the dragon logo appeared, the movie officially began playing.
On a dark and windy night, two patrolmen walking on the bluestone slabs chatted idly.

The patrolman, known as Master Ma, alertly drew his sword; the sheath and blade rubbed together, producing a clear, ringing sound.

This gave Chen Hao a real jolt; the director really understands martial arts fans!
Raise the lantern to illuminate the alley.
The lanterns cast a dim, yellowish glow, revealing Zhang Zheng's cold and indifferent face, his expression shifting between light and shadow. The dragon head embroidered on his chest was ferocious, and his two pigeon-blood stone eyes gleamed crimson in the darkness.

"The Embroidered Uniform Guard!!"

Master Ma fled in disarray.

"Holy crap, he's so handsome?!"

Chen Hao's eyes were shining.

Not just him, but the entire venue erupted in soft gasps of surprise.

They then raided the house and arrested the suspect.

Zhang Zheng's accent made Chen Hao a little uncomfortable, but the fight scenes were still very exciting and didn't break the immersion.

Then Zhang Zhen breaks a window to transition into the next scene.
The suspect fled into the alley.

At the end of the bluestone alley, a handsome young man dressed in a black flying fish robe had been waiting for a long time.

Gu Qing deftly twirled his blade, unleashing a chilling silver glint. Before the scream could even begin, the pair of short, mandarin duck blades pierced the man's heart, pinning him to the ground.

Blood beads rolled down the blade and splattered on the boy's thick eyelashes.

After killing the person,
Gu Qingman casually lifted her eyelids, watching Xu Xianchun's fleeing figure, a wicked smile appearing on her lips.

"Ahhhhh!!"

"My little brother is so handsome!!"

What started as a slight gasp has now escalated into a scream.

Most of the fans who came to support Gu Qing's video were completely surprised by how well their younger brother performed.

"What do you think? Isn't my little brother handsome?!"

Li Juan excitedly slapped her boyfriend's thigh.

"Uh... he is indeed quite handsome."

Chen Hao felt a little jealous, but he had to admit it.

He wasn't unfamiliar with Gu Qing.

Chen Hao had watched his girlfriend watch each episode of Running Man, and he found it quite entertaining.

He really didn't expect that Gu Qing, who is so slender, could film such outstanding action scenes.

After that,

The three brothers made their first public appearance.
Eldest brother Wang Qianyuan, second brother Zhang Zheng, third brother Gu Qing,
Each of them stood tall and straight, their flying fish robes were eye-catching, and their dialogue was calm and mature, without the slightest abruptness. "It's been so many years since I've seen a movie with the spirit of martial arts."

Chen Hao sighed inwardly.

Immediately,
He was out of character.

"Did Liu Shishi stay up late last night? Why do her eyes look so lifeless?"

Chen Hao was convinced.

On the screen,
The serene and beautiful Liu Shishi sat on the edge of the bed, whispering sweet nothings, but her gaze towards Shen Lian was as empty and lifeless as a puppet's.

It's so distracting!
"Hasn't her acting always been subpar?"

"What a blind woman!"

Li Juan said disdainfully, "It's dragging down the quality of my brother's drama."

After that,

The trope of Embroidered Spring Blade is fast-paced, rich in action sequences, and also includes subplots for each of the brothers.

The eldest brother, Lu Jianxing, was troubled by money. Despite having made enough contributions, he lacked the funds to bribe his superiors and be promoted to the rank of centurion, thus failing to bring glory to their father and ancestors.

The third brother, Jin Yichuan, was a bandit by origin. He was extorted by his senior brother and also suffered from a serious illness. He secretly loved a girl working at a pharmacy but dared not confess his feelings.

These two storylines are excellent for character development.

The moviegoers in the cinema were completely absorbed in the film.

But whenever I get to the storyline involving Shen Lian and Liu Shishi, I feel a bit uncomfortable.

I killed your whole family, yet I fell in love with you and want to buy your freedom.
It's so melodramatic no matter how you look at it.

Especially when Shen Lian let Wei Zhongxian go and took the silver notes to redeem Liu Shishi.

A strange man's voice came from the boudoir.

Chen Hao burst out laughing, "Classic, too classic, Brother Turtle, right?"

When the viewpoint shifts away from the room
A handsome young man in a long black brocade robe came into view, his profile visible.

"That's right. If I were Zhou Miaotong, I'd also like this kind of pretty boy. Isn't he better than you, a Jinyiwei who fights to the death?"

Chen Hao chuckled softly and said, "Look, Liu Shishi's eyes are shining. Isn't she a good actress?"

"That pretty boy... is my younger brother!"

Li Juan was so angry she wanted to grind her teeth.

"Who?!"

Chen Hao was speechless, drawing angry glares from everyone in the arena. He quickly covered his mouth, "Is this Gu Qing??"

Holy crap, is this kid playing a game of fake Monkey King with me?!

He looked at it carefully and found that it really was true.

in fact,

The Gu Qing on the screen now is the image of Gu Qing that he used to think of.

just,

Jin Yichuan's handsome and dashing image had previously drawn him into the role.
Chen Hao was genuinely taken aback when Gu Qing suddenly transformed into a refined and elegant young gentleman.

After that,

The plot of Brotherhood of Blades is starting to get more tragic.

The eldest brother stood up for his brothers, donned the long-cherished flying fish robe of a centurion, and took the blame for his crimes alone, ending his life with his head.

The plot of the third brother, Gu Qing, takes one twist after another.

Senior Brother Ding Xiu did not defile the girl; the old man from the clinic he killed was actually to vent his anger for his junior brother.

The original plan was for the three of them to elope after teasing each other.

But did not expect,

Gu Qing risked his life to save himself but was shot dead by a musket, falling in the snowy night.

It brought tears to the eyes of the girls in the theater.

Later, Liu Shishi was shot by an arrow and leaned against the wall, watching Shen Lianhua become the God of War and break through the encirclement on his own.

Later, Shen Lian and Ding Xiu joined forces to kill Zhao Jingzhong to avenge themselves, and this story came to an end.

"I can't accept this ending!"

"Why were Shen Lian and Zhou Miaotong able to survive?"

"Isn't the culprit behind all the troubles Shen Lian letting Wei Zhongxian escape?!"

After the event ended, Chen Hao finally couldn't hold back and started cursing.

"Exactly, Liu Shishi's acting was terrible. She used to like my little brother, but after Shen Lian saved her, she fell for someone else."

"What a green tea bitch! Falling in love with your father's killer, what a disgusting character!"

Li Juan was also furious.

"If this movie didn't have the love story between Shen Lian and Zhou Miaotong, I'd give it a perfect score."

Chen Hao said speechlessly, "Right now, I can only give it eight points!"

A film that he might rate as an 8 out of 10 is undoubtedly a fine and excellent work.

This money was well spent.

"Baby, it's still early. Do you want to go see the White-Haired Witch again?"

"Okay."

Li Juan nodded, and the two of them walked hand in hand into the theater of "The White-Haired Witch of Lunar Kingdom" with smiles on their faces.

An hour and a half later,
The two walked out of the theater cursing.

"arrow!"
