I'm not mentally ill, I'm a master of a thousand faces!

Chapter 409, an image that no one can surpass, not now, and not ever again.

Right now

Perhaps it's due to my physical condition.

Perhaps it's because...

Li Yun was naturally good at being alone, and when he was by himself, his six senses were heightened.

Many voices

Many figures

Their devout voices still linger in my ears.

"If I were God, I would have pity on them, but I am not God. I am just like them, just a human being, a powerless human being."

at this time.

A voice rang in Li Yun's ear.

The voice carried a hint of pity, helplessness, and a trace of guilt.

Compassion and helplessness are to be expected.

Why would you feel guilty? It's not like you made them sick.

Birth, aging, sickness, and death—these are things that no one can control.

"So, you can't actually do anything. And no one will ask you to do anything." At this moment, Li Yun looked at the personality that had suddenly appeared in his mind and murmured calmly.

I have morals, but I will not be morally blackmailed.

If anyone thinks I absolutely have to do something for sick people, I'm sorry, I'm not that noble.

However, Li Yun felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

Because it wasn't just that 'compassionate' guy who appeared before them.

Another person appeared, pleading for help. He was emaciated, looked like he was about to die, and was wearing a blue and white striped shirt. His body looked like it was on the verge of collapse.

The body was withered, the eyes were numb, and there was a look in the eyes of someone on the verge of death.

what.

Who is this person?

Yes, it's me.

Memories surfaced, recalling a scene and appearance exactly like this during the terminal stage of my illness in a previous life.

The texture of the skin, the expression, the yearning look in the eyes.

Yes, I really can't morally blackmail anyone, and even if I have some compassion, I can remain indifferent like a bystander—but this emotion is something I can't release to myself.

Originally, this was the expression people used to ask for help from others.

It's myself.

That feeling of being on the verge of death.

I've experienced it myself; I even asked the cleaning lady passing by if she had any ancestral recipes that could prolong my life.

Anyone can help me, please.

This feeling was very real because Li Yun had indeed experienced something like this firsthand.

That feeling clearly disappeared after the rebirth.

I was reborn.

But my past.

still exists.

"Why are you smoking outside?"

"I don't like the atmosphere in hospitals." At this moment, Wu Jing said calmly, smoking a cigarette. "This place is terrifying."

"You're even more afraid of hospitals than this old man is."

Wu Jinquan then joked, "You're scared, yet you still smoke."

In an instant, Wu Jinquan flicked the cigarette out of Wu Jing's mouth.

Wu Jing did not stop him.

"Dad, you said I practice martial arts because I'm brave and fierce, and because I'm chasing fame and fortune. If I gain fame and fortune, but end up suffering from illness or even dying, then what's the point of my life's struggle? In the end, all that's left is emptiness."

In this regard.

Wu Jinquan did not deny it.

"So, cherish the present, cherish what you have now, exercise properly, quit smoking. You're afraid of dying but you still smoke, that's really abstract."

"Okay, okay, okay"

After filming the martial arts association.

Li Yun also left the hospital, but that feeling lingered in her heart.

Li Yun had experienced near-death before, and even pursued a meaningful death and passing away. He experienced quite a bit of it himself while filming.

Li Yun has a lot of experience with death.

But dying from illness feels completely different.

First, your once robust body begins to disobey your commands; your limbs begin to ache inexplicably; your muscles begin to atrophy; and your internal organs begin to churn.

You start by being able to enjoy any kind of delicious food, then you can only eat simple, nutritious food, then liquid food, and finally you can't eat anything at all. This is because what you eat only puts a burden and causes pain to your internal organs, making you feel even more pain and discomfort.

Finally, I felt life gradually leaving my body.

"Huff, huff."

At this moment, Li Yun woke up from a nightmare.

Cold sweat pouring down

But then they discovered...

I am on the ceiling.

Facing yourself.

That was myself in a past life.

My own life is gradually withering away.

"damn it"

Li Yun suddenly felt a suffocating sense of shared experience.

"Is he really okay?" At this moment, the usually taciturn 'loyal minister' looked at Li Yun with narrowed eyes, and it seemed that Li Yun was on the verge of collapse.

But Li Yun cannot afford to break down now.

If Li Yun breaks down, how can he fulfill his duty of "serving the country with utmost loyalty"?

No, absolutely not!

"You're late, you don't know him well enough." At this moment, the 'Director' personality remained calm and composed, seemingly unfazed by Li Yun's reaction.

"He's not even afraid of death?" the loyal minister wondered.

"He's not fearless," the superstar next to him added.

Li Yun looked at the "me" on the ceiling.

The fear of death, entangled

Let me play "me".

This is definitely not an easy thing, and there is even some pain involved.

But Li Yun asked himself honestly.

If going through the process of health, decline, illness, and death again could bring me greater fame and fortune...

at this time

Li Yun opened his eyes.

Copying 'me'.

Feeling "me".

At this moment, even the 'loyal minister' was somewhat taken aback.

The "director" persona beside him said something.

"You think he's crazy because of us, but actually, he wasn't quite normal to begin with."

"You're in great spirits! What did you do last night? You were having so much fun?"

"Really? I think so too. I feel great."

Li Yun smiled slightly in response to Jiang Chenggang's question.

Jiang Chenggang felt there was something strange about it.

But it's hard to put into words.

Li Yun's next task is to finish filming the second half of "New Three Kingdoms".

Then we can welcome the release of "Let the Bullets Fly". Let's see what it's really like.

"Next time, in your father-son battle, I wonder who will come out on top," Jiang Chenggang said, squinting his eyes.

"Yeah, who knows?"

Both are scheduled for the same period.

At the same time, the publicity and release times are all the same.

"By the way, how much has been cut?" Li Yun was also quite concerned about this.

"It took less than five minutes to delete."

"Huh? So little!"

"Just remove the White Rabbit candy and the bloody scene of disembowelment."

"The review process is really giving us face."

"Of course we gave you face; someone helped us get the green light."

"Green light."

At this moment, Li Yun thought for a moment.

There aren't many people who can give you special treatment here.

They still quietly gave us the green light.

Yes, it's your uncle.

in fact.

It is true that someone gave Li Yun's "Let the Bullets Fly" the green light for censorship, using their connections to get the film as complete as possible.

However, this person was not Li Yuxuan.

Instead, Li Mo gave him a legitimate opportunity to challenge himself.

"Unbelievable, my son actually stirred up my competitive spirit."

at this time.

Li Modu, gazing at the moonlight from outside the living room, thought to herself.

"I hope his movie won't disappoint me."

The biggest problem with "Let the Bullets Fly" is the censorship issue.

That's no longer a problem.

When 100% of the content can be presented here.

No reason will justify the film's failure.

A leading figure in mainstream narratives, a former role model of the times, and his epic showdown with his son.

These things are all quietly brewing.

At this time.

Li Yun had already packed up and returned to the set of "New Three Kingdoms".

When Li Yun returned to the film set, he felt a sense of loss, as if things had changed.

By this time, it was no longer the era of universal condemnation of Dong Zhuo.

Now 47 years old, Liu Xuande is wandering around in a state of utter destitution.

Cao Mengde has long since transformed from a passionate middle-aged man who once supported the Han Dynasty into a treacherous and cunning overlord who has unified the Central Plains and the north.

Taking advantage of the situation, the Little Tyrant of Eastern Wu rose to power.

Sun Ce had already died here, and Sha Yi's scenes were also completed here—however, this actor from the Aerospace Force couldn't bear to leave this era of "New Three Kingdoms" and still lingered on this set.

Not all actors have a full schedule, and his feelings for Eastern Wu seem to be about witnessing the end of this "New Three Kingdoms".

The most striking appearance was that of director Gao Xinxin, who looked extremely tired, with white hair, and looked like she had aged ten years.

"Director Gao, your image really gives off a feeling of 'dedicating yourself to the cause until your dying breath'." Li Yun looked at Director Gao Xinxin and truly felt that he had given so much for this film.

"You're finally back."

Judging from Gao Xinxin's eyes, she seemed to be really looking forward to this happening.

They seemed to really want Li Yun to come back.

"Hey, Director Gao, don't look at me like that. I like pretty girls," Li Yun said with a squinty smile, clearly not interested in Gao Xinxin.

"I really miss the feeling of you, Dangdang, making various cameo appearances in the drama. I felt so immersed in each character that filming was very smooth and comfortable for me."

Gao Xinxin longed for the "Lu Bu" in front of her.

This Lü Bu, the figure he represented in the play.

It was so comfortable to be led into the play by Li Yun.

That mesmerizing, almost magical feeling is so addictive, it's hard to resist and escape it.

Even Gao Xinxin felt that filming "Three Kingdoms" after Li Yun left seemed to be less smooth.

Therefore, both Gao Xinxin and the rest of the crew came to the same conclusion.

Regardless of how Li Yun portrays Zhuge Liang in the future.

At least with Li Yun in this production crew, everyone will feel fully immersed in the story.

Because Li Yun always interprets things very vividly from different perspectives and identities.

Such talent.

That's incredibly powerful.

but.

Regarding whether Li Yun can play the role of Zhuge Liang well, the number of optimistic and pessimistic people should be about half.

Liu Hewei is likely a cautiously optimistic person.

He had few doubts about Li Yun's acting skills and expressiveness.

After all, Lu Bu's performance in the first episode of the Three Kingdoms series already proved to everyone that Li Yun's acting skills are absolutely trustworthy.

At least the character of Lü Bu is absolutely trustworthy.

It was only when military generals became civil officials.

Is that feeling still there?

Liu Hewei didn't know either.

At least he understands one thing.

When Li Yun gave him the feeling of Lu Bu, it was absolutely profound.

It would be difficult for him to remember other characters.

It's hard for him to associate it with other people.

Kongming, the Crouching Dragon, was the most charismatic strategist of the Three Kingdoms era. The actors in the old Three Kingdoms series have brought him to life so perfectly that it is difficult to find anyone else to replace him.

It's already extremely difficult.

This is a character that is widely considered difficult to surpass in the previous work.

He was on the same level as Guan Yu, making him difficult to surpass.

The younger generation can only try to approach that image.

There's simply no way to surpass it.

Of course, Li Yun is not without his merits.

That captivating sense of immersion, that connection to this era, allowed all the actors to quickly get into character when watching Li Yun.

It felt very quickly and vividly that I was in a world.

That kind of charm is hard to describe.

It is utterly captivating.

Whether Li Yun can portray Zhuge Kongming well remains to be seen.

Director Gao Xinxin shared the same attitude.

Just perform at the audition level.

There weren't any other requirements.

Liu Hewei and Gao Xinxin were drinking tea at this moment. They had just finished filming the last scenes of Cao Cao's "Battle of Guandu" and the crew had a period of rest.

At this moment, Liu Hewei asked Gao Xinxin.

"You don't believe he can play Zhuge Liang well either?"

"It's not that I don't believe he can play Kongming well, but the image in the previous work is too classic. I watched the old Three Kingdoms again and again and found that some roles are just impossible to surpass." Gao Xinxin sighed.

"It is indeed difficult to surpass." Liu Hewei nodded.

He is also a fan of the Three Kingdoms period.

Whether it's the old Three Kingdoms or the Records of the Three Kingdoms or the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

He watched it many times.

He watched it just as many times as Gao Xinxin.

There are several characters among them that are difficult to surpass.

Guan Yu is the first one to come, needless to say. This is simply Guan Yu reincarnated. Teacher Lu's first place is well-deserved.

Secondly, there's Zhuge Liang.

That wise man, with his feather fan and silk turban, devised strategies and commanded the three armies with ease and wit.

If he had lived a little longer, the Northern Expedition might not have been a dream at all.

The time, place and people are favorable.

If Li Yun's Zhuge Liang has any advantage over the Zhuge Liang of the old Three Kingdoms period, it's probably his youthful vigor.

Li Yun's image is more vibrant compared to his portrayal in the old Three Kingdoms period.

It has the temperament of a young person.

Whether this was right or wrong for Zhuge Liang is another matter, but it can be said that Zhuge Liang, who had just started his career, was indeed only 27 years old.

He was a young man.

He was simply a man of extraordinary talent.

Everyone probably thought he should look like a wise middle-aged man.

He was exceptionally young.

That was Zhuge Liang.

Can Li Yun demonstrate his unparalleled talent?

The feeling of being incredibly young.

If possible, this could be considered an advantage.

But this advantage is less than that of the classic Three Kingdoms.

That's extremely rare.

It was a true classic in the past.

Like Lu Shuming, Tang Guoqiang's image is unparalleled.
