Veteran Hong Kong stars reorganize the Chinese entertainment industry.

"Nakazawa, are you alright? They didn't do anything to you, did they? If this causes any harm to you, I'll hire a good lawyer for you and sue them!"

He Qian seemed to care about Liu Zhongze. She didn't expect that a mere practice session would lead to a passerby calling the police, and that an actor would be arrested and interrogated.

We live in a society governed by the rule of law. Arresting people without cause and without a proper explanation is a lenient offense, even a complaint would be considered mild.

Wang Xiaoming, also concerned, asked, "You weren't locked in a dark room and beaten up, were you?"

Liu Zhongze shook his head, recalling the days in Hong Kong when police officers would beat people without needing to hide.

Under the rule of the British Empire, which claimed to have the most gentlemen, dark forces existed in every aspect of Hong Kong. In other words, even the people of the British Empire were unclean, and it was their uncleanliness that led to the uncleanliness of Hong Kong.

From a young age, Liu Zhongze heard stories about the four major families and the five-hundred-million-dollar detective. Even as he grew up, he could still feel some of those shadows lingering in his mind.

Both the police and the gangs have toned down their behavior, seemingly returning to a more law-abiding state. They simply put their transactions on the table, and those in power will turn a blind eye, since the money is also meant to be a tribute to the "gentlemen" of the British Empire.

"It's okay. They were just afraid I would run away, so they took me to the interrogation room to rest. After confirming that I was okay, they released me."

After listening, He Qian retorted, "You have quite the attitude. You were treated like a suspect and handcuffed for so long, and you act like nothing happened after you got out. I don't remember you ever committing a crime. Do you have some kind of connection with the police?"

This is the best judgment based on Liu Zhongze's reaction. No one likes to go to the police station, especially to be taken away as a suspect. It will damage one's reputation, and if someone spreads the word, the impact of the matter will be amplified.

Wang Xiaoming thought for a moment and said, "You didn't do something wrong before, and the police didn't find out yet, so when you saw the police, your first thought was to run away, right?"

Wang Xiaoming knew that in this day and age, if the police showed up near your residence, it was highly likely that they had already investigated you. At that point, there was no point in running away; only those who were guilty would run.

One person thought Liu Zhongze had strong family connections, while another thought Liu Zhongze might be hiding something and was a potential candidate for police investigation—one good, one bad.

In response to their speculations, Liu Zhongze shook his head and said, "None of that. Why are you so curious? It was just a misunderstanding. If we had dragged this out any longer, we probably wouldn't have made it to Hengdian by four o'clock."

The two slapped their foreheads at the same time, looking very much in sync.

"I almost forgot about the important matter. Look at my brain. Let's go, there should be no one at the hotel." She took out her phone to check her messages, and after finding that no one had sent her any messages, she put it back in her pocket.

Wang Xiaoming suggested, "In that case, let's take a taxi there."

Liu Zhongze asked, "Shouldn't we go back to the hotel and check? Maybe we still have some people there."

As He Qian walked, she said, "It's already 3:20. Who hasn't left yet and hasn't sent me a message? They're probably getting impatient. Let's hurry up and go."

Wang Xiaoming agreed, saying, "Let's go then. There shouldn't be anyone at the hotel. If Lin Youyu gets annoyed waiting, it will affect our funding for the rest of the film."

And so, the three of them set off for Hengdian.

About fifteen minutes later, the car arrived at a place that looked like an ancient building. It was crowded with people, not only staff and extras, but also many tourists. After all, it is a national 5A-level scenic spot, and many people take pictures here.

The three got off the bus one after another. He Qian took out two work badges from her bag and handed them to Wang Xiaoming and Liu Zhongze. There were no pictures on them. The only work badge with a picture was on He Qian's neck.

The three of them arrived at the door and were not stopped because of their work badges.

Film crews need to apply in advance if they want to shoot in Hengdian. It's not like you can just go in and shoot whenever you want. Filming usually takes a lot of time, so you can't just occupy the space without applying and make things inconvenient for others, right?

The two walked for a long time and saw many film crews gathered together, especially those with excellent scenery. Film crews with similar styles would want to shoot in these scenes to add more visual tension to their dramas.

Ordinary scenery, or places that don't fit into popular dramas, will attract fewer visitors.

The film "Heroic Spirit" chose this location precisely because they didn't need too many ancient scenes. They only needed the lead actors to film some scenes here, and the rest of the filming would be done in the city.

The most important aspect of tokusatsu dramas is the urban storyline. Because of the relationship between the battle spirits and the five elements, it is necessary to come to Hengdian specifically to film some scenes about inheritance.

The most important part of "Heroic Spirit" is the word "spirit".

This show features five sets of armor, each corresponding to one of the five elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Each element also corresponds to an ancient Chinese mythical beast: the Azure Dragon, Vermilion Bird, White Tiger, Black Tortoise, and Qilin.

The male protagonist is the fire-attribute Vermilion Bird, but this Vermilion Bird incorporates many elements of the phoenix. It can be said to be the armor with the most transformations among the five armors, but it needs to be specially made by the prop team later. Currently, there are only two sets, namely the normal state and the reborn state.

The other four sets of armor represent the elements: Azure Dragon (representing wood), Black Tortoise (representing water), White Tiger (representing earth), and Qilin (representing metal).

Closely related to the plot, the Qilin does not belong to the Four Divine Beasts, so the Qilin's metal armor will be the last to appear in the plot. The earlier parts are more about the training and integration of the summoners of the Four Divine Beasts' battle spirits.

At this point, the villainous boss used modern technology to activate an ancient ferocious beast and infused this dark power into a group of valiant warriors. This is the origin of the word "valiant" in "Heroic Warrior Soul".

They were clearly a righteous army, but they were betrayed and turned into a dark and evil organization, constantly causing destruction to human cities.

The only one who remained clear-headed was the leader of that army back then, who was also the most conflicted character in the entire series.

Despite cherishing his subordinates the most, he allowed them to be eliminated as they spiraled out of control.

He, who most wanted to be a representative of justice, became the most powerful force in the darkness, causing the most cruel destruction.

His conscience would sometimes rise, then he would become confused, his consciousness would dim, and everything around him would become a reason for his destruction.

The villain, who embodied all the contradictions, was deleted by Wang Xiaoming because no one could take on the role.

Every member of the crew had multiple roles, so naturally they couldn't spare the time to specifically play the monster leader.

He Qian's five old classmates believed that they should spend the least amount of money on filming and invest the most money in special effects so that the show could have the potential to be a good low-budget drama!
