Huayu started from the Three Kingdoms period

Chapter 23 Joins the cast of "New Three Kingdoms"

Silent all night.

The next morning, Xu Ying ate a simple breakfast and set off immediately.

Xu Ying drove Jing Tian's BMW 5 Series to Zhuozhou Film and Television City in Henan Province, a journey that took one and a half hours.

Zhuozhou Film and Television City is the largest film and television shooting base in China and even Asia, and is known as the "Oriental Hollywood".

Famous TV series such as "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", "Water Margin" and "A Step into the Past" were all filmed here.

Xu Ying drove directly to the hotel where the film crew was staying.

This is definitely a big production; the hotel environment is completely different. The room is vastly different from the hotel in Tengchong.

And this is already such a spacious and comfortable room for a minor character like him; the suites for the main characters must be even more comfortable.

After packing his things, he took the script and, guided by the staff, arrived at the set of "New Three Kingdoms".

The major scenes in the drama have been mostly filmed, and the scene that Sun Jian obtains the imperial seal is currently being filmed.

When I arrived on set, Gao Xixi was giving the actors some instructions.

Sun Jian led his army into Luoyang, which was now in ruins, and then discovered the Imperial Seal of the State next to the throne in the Daming Palace.

I must say, Xu Ying has a deep impression of this scene in the TV series "New Three Kingdoms".

This part of the storyline has been heavily criticized online: how did they find the imperial seal? The imperial seal was clearly buried under the corpse.

After the director finished explaining the scene, everyone looked at the young man who had joined the crew with some curiosity.

I had always heard that the actor who played Emperor Xian of Han was a very handsome man, and I didn't expect that he really was.

When Gao Xixi saw Xu Ying, he said with satisfaction, "Director Kang has praised you a lot, and your feat is quite famous around here."

Kang Honglei had a lot of stills sent to him, and he knew that recommending Xu Ying to the "My Chief and My Regiment" production team would definitely not be a problem.

This kid is no longer a newcomer without acting experience.

Moreover, the fact that Xu Ying risked his life to save people was something Kang Honglei himself told him.

Although the production team of "My Chief and My Regiment" has not said anything to the public, this matter is actually quite serious.

There are no secrets that stay hidden forever. Right now, it's only circulating among the directors, but who knows what will happen in a while.

Gao Xixi said with a smile, "I thought you weren't planning to come. I was just about to send someone to bring you back."

Xu Ying said with a smile, "I just went back to school for a few days of classes, and I came right away after that."

Then, Xu Ying greeted Chen Jianbing and Chen Hao.

The set was filled with familiar faces, including Sha Yi, Yu Hewei, Ruby Lin, Nie Yuan, and others.

Xu Ying knew them, but they didn't know Xu Ying. Many people had some doubts about the feat Gao Xixi had described.

Gao Xixi said, "You'll have a scene tomorrow, so be prepared and ask questions if you don't understand anything."

"Okay, Director Gao."

During his time at school, Xu Ying spent his time either attending classes or studying scripts. He didn't have many roles to begin with, but now he's almost completely mastered them.

Apart from Chen Jianbing and Chen Hao, the other actors were somewhat puzzled, wondering why the director was so kind and approachable to this young man.

Lin Xinru watched Xu Ying's sunny and handsome appearance from behind, feeling a little itchy inside.

Such handsome men are rare in Hong Kong.

However, in recent years, many Hong Kong and Taiwan stars have become somewhat arrogant, but it's no longer their era.

Xu Ying noticed the actor who played the tall and imposing Lü Bu, He Rundong.

After all, he's a man who has portrayed all the great figures in China's 5000-year history.

He has only one requirement for accepting roles: whether the character is fierce or not.

They never care about the quality of the script, as long as it's exciting.

However, his acting career has been quite unfortunate. After filming "Wind and Cloud", the other actors became incredibly popular.

He's still the same now, and even later on, this TV series contributed many meme-worthy expressions to everyone.

"Director Gao, I've prepared some coffee, drinks, and fruit for the seniors. I'll deliver them to the hotel in a bit." Then Xu Ying whispered, "I've also brought a little something for Director Gao in my room. I'll get it for you when I get back tonight."

"You're quite the smooth operator, aren't you?" Gao Xixi chuckled. "Then I'll give you a few words of encouragement."

"Teacher Xu has prepared coffee, drinks, and fruit for everyone. Please remember to pick them up at the hotel reception when you get back."

The actors' expressions softened when they looked at Xu Ying. Regardless of the young man's background, he seemed quite sensible.

After a while, Xu Ying quietly found Chen Jianbing, who was smoking with Yu Hewei and Ni Dahong.

"Brother Soldier, guess what I brought you?" Xu Ying said with a smile.

"Hmph, I can guess what you've got since you came back from Yunnan Province." Chen Jianbing thought for a moment, "Da Chong Jiu."

"Wow, soldier!" Xu Ying gave a thumbs up, then took out three packs of Da Zhong Jiu cigarettes from his backpack.

"Brother Bing, this is yours, and there are also some for Teacher Yu and Teacher Ni."

"Oh, there's a portion for both of us?" Yu Hewei was quite surprised.

Ni Dahong waved his hand, "No, no, that won't do."

As he spoke, he opened his pocket.

"Yes, yes, I bought a lot, so I'll have to trouble you two teachers to help me finish it."

"Oh dear, what are we going to do? If word gets out, people will think we're bullying the newcomers." Yu Hewei had already stuffed the cigarette into the lining of his ancient costume.

Chen Jianbing scoffed, "Alright, you've already put them away. There's no one else here."

"Haha, isn't that a bit inappropriate?" Ni Dahong laughed heartily.

"Just give this kid some pointers; he's an experiential learner."

"That's definitely not a problem."

In addition to bringing them Da Zhong Jiu (a type of Chinese liquor), Xu Ying also brought a gift for Chen Hao.

Chen Hao was pleasantly surprised. "Good brother, you've gone to so much trouble, with gifts, coffee, and fruit."

"It's no trouble at all, it's nothing."

"The sun in Yunnan is really scorching; you're practically turning into charcoal."

Actually, it wasn't as exaggerated as Chen Hao described. Over the past month, Xu Ying's complexion has recovered quite a bit.

"How was it? Tired from your first film?"

Xu Ying shook his head, "I wouldn't call it arduous. After all, it was my first drama, and overall, I gained a lot from filming it."

Just as Xu Ying and Chen Hao were talking, Peter Ho walked over.

He spoke in somewhat broken Mandarin, but his voice was very gentle. "Hello, Teacher Xu, I am Peter Ho."

The voice was somewhat surprised; it was unexpected that Peter Ho had such a nice personality in private, even calling him a new teacher—quite a contrast.

"Hello, Teacher He. I've watched your TV series, especially 'Bu Jingyun,' which I've loved since I was a child."

Bu Jingyun, with his pair of monstrous arms, who wouldn't like him?

Xu Ying had fantasized about having a superhuman arm and showing it off to others.

He even imagined transforming into Kamen Rider or Ultraman under the watchful eyes of all the girls in the school.

Well, of course that's impossible, but who doesn't have fantasies?
