Chapter 176 Encountering Wang Yu, Beating Him Until He Calls Him Daddy (Please Subscribe)

three days later.

Zhang Shuai'an, along with Yu Sijia and Lin Zhengying, went to Taiwan with Zhang Aijia.

Needless to say, he brought Yu Sijia along; she was his personal secretary, and with her around, he didn't have to worry about trivial matters.

As for Lam Ching-ying, firstly, because he knew Wong Yu; secondly, because he was one of the male leads, it was good for him to come along and familiarize himself with the environment beforehand.

Lam Ching-ying was still somewhat incredulous, wondering why Cheung Sau-an had chosen him as the male lead. Although he was only one of the male leads, it was still beyond his expectations.

To be honest, he is quite famous and has a long career in the stuntman circle.

However, to the average viewer, he is just a familiar passerby, with few memorable roles; he usually plays either a thug or a hooligans.

Lam Ching-ying's first breakout role was Leung Yee-tai in the 1981 film "The Prodigal Son".

Unfortunately, it's only 1980 now.

Lam Ching-ying has already read the script for "Mr. Vampire" and found it to be well-written, with a rich and engaging plot.

The character of "Uncle Nine" is particularly well-written, almost as if it were tailor-made for him.

The more this was the case, the more puzzled Lin Zhengying became. He and Zhang Shuai'an had no connection whatsoever. It was only before Zhang Shuai'an became famous that the two had exchanged a few moves at a nightclub.

Lin Zhengying had also secretly consulted Hong Jingbao about this question.

Hong Jingbao's answer was simple: "If he gives you a chance, just take it. Once you become famous, you can repay him. Why think so much?"

After Hong Jingbao said that, Lin Zhengying finally got rid of all those miscellaneous thoughts.

On the plane, Zhang Shuai, bored, asked Lin Zhengying, "Brother Ying, you must have been to Taiwan before, right?"

Lam Ching-ying nodded: "Hong Kong is too small, there are many locations that don't exist. In the past, if we wanted to shoot on location, we would either go to South Korea or Taiwan."

"Why is South Korea the first choice?" Zhang Shuai'an asked curiously.

Starting in the 1970s, many Hong Kong martial arts films were shot on location in South Korea, such as King Hu's "Rain in the Mountain".

Chu Yuan's "The Sentimental Swordsman and the Ruthless Sword".

"We can't go to the mainland, and Taiwan's censorship used to be very strict. Japan's costs are also very high. If we want to shoot some Chinese-style outdoor scenes, we can only go to South Korea."

Lam Ching-ying began to explain: "Moreover, South Korea has very favorable tax reduction and exemption policies, and even subsidies. The cost of living is also low. The expenses for filming in Hong Kong for a month can be covered for several months or even half a year in South Korea."

"I see." Zhang Shuai'an nodded.

No wonder Jackie Chan filmed his early movies on location in South Korea, and even had a Korean girlfriend during filming.

Zhang Aijia, who was sitting in the row in front of them, suddenly interjected, "Taiwan has opened up a lot more now, making it much easier to film scenes here than before. We don't have to go all the way to South Korea or even Southeast Asia anymore."

Lam Ching-ying just smiled and didn't say anything.

"Anzai, I told you in advance."

As the plane approached Taiwan, Zhang Aijia whispered to Zhang Shuai'an, "Brother Wang hasn't been having a peaceful time lately, so he might keep a low profile. Please forgive any shortcomings in our hospitality."

Zhang Shuai'an didn't seem to care, but asked with some curiosity, "Has he gotten into trouble again recently?"

"That's no ordinary problem."

Sylvia Chang gave a wry smile, her tone tinged with admiration: "He's too strong-willed and loyal. He's played so many chivalrous heroes that he really thinks he is one, wanting to get involved in everything."

"Putting everything else aside, just last month there was the [Yin Song Ge Incident]. He was drinking with Ke Junxiong and others at Yin Song Ge when Ke's underlings chopped up Gu Long."

"Those two lads were reckless; they slashed the artery in Gu Long's hand, nearly killing him on the spot. I heard..."

They donated 2000cc of blood. The hospital's blood bank was depleted, and they had to buy a large amount of blood from outside sources to save the person.

"Afterwards, Wang Yu advised Ke Junxiong to buy an expensive watch to visit Gu Long in hopes of gaining Gu Long's forgiveness. However, whether it was because Ke was stingy with money or concerned about his image, he only brought a few packets of tea. As a result, he was kicked out by Gu Long's apprentice."

"This matter originally had nothing to do with Wang Yu. But he insisted on taking the blame. Later, when he hosted a banquet for Gu Long, he smashed six wine bottles on his own head in front of Gu Long to make Gu Long forgive Ke Junxiong."

(The Yinsongge Incident in October 1980)

It seems Wang Yu is a stubborn guy. When dealing with this kind of person, you either have to constantly obey him or beat him into submission.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to have a pleasant relationship.

As for the story of Gu Long being attacked while drinking, Zhang Shuai'an had indeed heard about it before his transmigration, but he didn't know much about it.

It seems that this incident led to Gu Long receiving a blood transfusion from a hepatitis patient. Coupled with his unwillingness to quit drinking, his health deteriorated rapidly, and he died of the disease within a few years.

Unexpectedly, this matter was so close to him.

"Once we get to Taiwan, we can go and visit Gu Long."

Zhang Shuai'an said, "I have great respect for Gu Long. I used to read his novels a lot to pass the time."

Sylvia Chang replied with a smile, "That's easy, Gu Long is a very hospitable person."

Then, she kindly reminded him, "It's fine for you to pay your respects to Wang Dayu when you come to Taiwan to film, but you shouldn't get too close to him. He has deep ties with gangs, and it's a sensitive time right now. You might easily get implicated by him."

Zhang Shuai'an said calmly, "I'm just buying insurance for 'Mr. Zombie' in advance to avoid being harassed by gang members."

o

"He also has enemies," Zhang Aijia said. "However, as long as you stay away from the territory of rival gangs, you should be fine."

Zhang Shuai'an was indeed just here to be on the safe side. In case the local gangs in Taiwan were still being unreasonable, he wouldn't mind maximizing his [Innate Divine Strength] and destroying their stronghold.

The plane arrived at Taoyuan Airport very quickly.

Zhang Shuai'an originally planned to find a hotel to stay in first, and then choose a time to go find Wang Yu.

To their surprise, as soon as they stepped out of the terminal, they saw Wang Yu wearing sunglasses and driving a flashy luxury supercar parked on the side of the road.

There were at least ten reporters standing around him, carrying cameras and video recorders and filming.

Zhang Aijia explained with a smile, "Wang Yu just likes to make a big show of things. He has to do everything with a grand air, and he has to give others a grand welcome too."

Zhang Shuai'an couldn't help but chuckle; Wang Yu was being a bit too flamboyant.

"You're that handsome guy, An?"

Wang Yu glanced at the group of people who came out, his gaze immediately locking onto Zhang Shuai'an: "Jackie Chan called me and said you're a good friend. But Charlie called me and told me to find a chance to teach you a lesson."

Zhang Shuai'an said calmly, "So, Brother Yu, what are your own thoughts?"

"Whoosh!"

Wang Yu rushed forward and threw a punch at Zhang Shuai'an's face.

Zhang Shuai'an has the physique of Bruce Lee (40%) and the buff of innate super strength, so he naturally doesn't take this attack seriously.

He simply raised his hand and deflected Wang Yu's force with a single slap.

Wang Yu exclaimed in surprise, pointing at Zhang Shuai'an and saying, "Hey, handsome, you've got some skills! Come on, try again!"

His behavior made it seem like he wanted to fight Zhang Shuai'an in public first.

"Brother Wang, this is a public place, please be mindful."

Zhang Aijia couldn't help but advise, "Anzai, you've come from afar as a guest. Aren't you afraid people will say you're impolite for doing this?"

"Yes, let's ask the guests to stay first."

"Brother Wang, have you forgotten what your sister-in-law told you before you left? Never get into a fight with anyone."

Two women followed behind Wang Yu and also stepped forward to persuade him.

"That's fine. You've come all this way and taken a plane, you must be tired."

Wang Yu then suppressed his fighting spirit and pointed at Zhang Shuai'an, saying, "After we finish eating, let's have a proper fight."

"If you win, you can say whatever you want. If you lose, apologize to Charlie."

Wang Yu's meddlesome nature kicked in again.

These words displeased Zhang Shuai'an, who increased the force of his push and sent Wang Yu flying.

Wang Yu stumbled back more than ten steps before crashing into his own luxury car and finally coming to a stop.

"You've got guts, kid. Come on, come on!"

Wang Yu took off his shirt, assumed a boxing stance, and waved at Zhang Shuai'an: "Try punching me again. If you can hit me, then you're really something—huh?"

Before he could finish speaking, Zhang Shuai'an rushed up to him and punched him in the stomach.

Wang Yu immediately fell backward, taking more than ten steps before barely managing to stop.

The two women who came with Wang Yu were startled. One of them was Pan Yingzi, whom he had met once before, and the other was someone Zhang Shuai'an did not recognize.

"Brother Wang, is that enough?" Zhang Shuai'an had naturally held back, only letting Wang Yu know the difference in strength between the two.

Wang Yu was very dissatisfied and punched Zhang Shuai'an.

Zhang Shuai'an easily deflected his attack, saying calmly, "Mr. Wang, that's enough. If you hit me again, I won't hold back."

"Who asked you to hold back?" Wang Yu said unhappily. "Use as much strength as you can."

Zhang Shuai'an shook his head: "It wouldn't be good if I knocked you unconscious."

Wang Yu sneered, "If you can knock me out, I'll call you 'Dad' from now on!"

"Brother Wang, you keep your word?" Zhang Shuai'an looked at Wang Yu with a smile. "You won't go back on your word later, will you?"

Wang Yu pointed at the reporters lining both sides of the road and shouted, "So many reporters are watching! I, Wang Yu, always keep my word. In all my years, no one has ever beaten me. Even someone as strong as Bruce Lee lost to me in an arm wrestling match back then."

"OK."

Zhang Shuai'an laughed and immediately turned [Innate Divine Strength] to its maximum.

Wang Yu rushed towards Zhang Shuai'an in a flash, and his fists struck Zhang Shuai'an's waist with great speed.

However, Zhang Shuai'an was even faster than him, and his fist struck first, hitting him squarely in the chin and sending his legs flying off the ground.

When he fell again, he couldn't stand up straight, his body swayed several times, and he fell directly to the ground.

"Brother Wang!"

"Brother Yu!"

Those around were startled and rushed forward to check on Wang Yu's condition.

Zhang Shuai'an said calmly, "Don't worry, he's fine. He'll wake up in a few seconds."

Sure enough, three seconds later, Wang Yu woke up, sprang to his feet, and was perfectly fine.

However, his understanding of Zhang Shuai'an was completely refreshed.

"I lost!"

Wang Yu gritted his teeth, cupped his hands in a gesture of respect to Zhang Shuai'an, and said, "I accept it, Dad!"

"It was just a joke, Brother Wang, don't take it seriously!" Zhang Shuai'an waved his hand. "Besides, you didn't really lose."

"No, a loss is a loss!"

"I, Wang Yu, am not someone who can't accept defeat!"

Wang Yu said earnestly, "From now on, you're my dad. Come on, Dad, let's go home!"
