Huayu 93, I'm the ceiling of combat power from the moment I appear.
Chapter 19: Never let a grudge linger overnight; never let internal strife cause harm.
"Action!"
On set, with director Yuan Heping's command, filming of "Tai Chi Master" officially began.
The first scene is a major highlight.
Snapped!
Click!
A black brick was slammed onto the gleaming forehead, instantly shattering into a pile of fragments.
Beneath his bald head was He Xi's strikingly handsome face.
However, at this moment, the heroic spirit was gone from his handsome face, leaving only...
Violence!
"I'm determined to beat that giant watermelon!"
The big watermelon is called Xinbao. He is a disciple of the Luohan Hall. Because he is older, he often bullied Tianbao and Junbao when they were young.
Even after they grew up, they became even worse, resorting to all sorts of underhanded tactics and sabotage.
As a result, his master was the head of the Arhat Hall, and he had many followers.
So every time they tripped each other up, it was Tianbao and Junbao who got punished, which made them very unhappy.
However, neither of them were to be bullied, nor would they join forces simply because they couldn't win. Instead, they channeled their anger into motivation to train.
At this moment, the two were practicing Iron Head Kung Fu.
That's why I said this is a 'main event'...
"Junbao, the temple is selecting martial monks to enter the Bodhidharma Academy in a few days. Do you have confidence?"
He Xi asked while hitting his head with a brick.
The blue bricks are special props; they are intact when picked up, but will crumble into sand at the slightest touch.
It didn't hurt much when it hit my head, but the scattered ash made my eyes a little uncomfortable.
However, for the sake of the filming effect, He Xi had no choice but to endure it.
On the other side, Li Lianjie was also hitting his head with a brick.
He filmed while nonchalantly saying, "It doesn't matter."
"Oh well, if it works, it works; if it doesn't, it doesn't. Let it be!"
Although the two grew up together, their personalities are completely different.
Junbao was easygoing from a young age. He would endure being bullied, admit his mistakes first, and avoid trouble whenever possible.
Tianbao, on the other hand, had always been competitive since childhood. Although he joined the sect late, he made Junbao call him senior brother in private. When he was bullied and couldn't beat someone, he would put a sack over his head.
Moreover, he was not afraid of powerful figures. Even if his senior master, the head of the Arhat Hall, favored his own disciple, he would immediately confront him with insults.
The main principle is to hold grudges and never let them fester overnight, and never engage in internal strife.
This kind of personality actually reflects my mental state thirty years from now.
So in 26, I opened a video website.
Many people in the comments section will feel sorry for Tianbao, believing that he did nothing wrong, and that the world was at fault.
Putting aside the facts, one person works hard to learn and practice skills, painstakingly cultivates relationships, and is willing to abandon all pride for a chance to improve their future.
Is such a person wrong?
Tianbao just really wants to improve!
This ambition is admirable.
However, Dong Tianbao is, after all, a villain.
Therefore, in the process of rising to power, he betrayed the anti-Yuan patriots, killed his former superior, and even sacrificed the woman he loved most...
These are things that mainstream values cannot tolerate, whether now or thirty years from now.
Looking back at Dong Tianbao's past actions with the villainous outcome in mind, they become the foreshadowing of his character flaws and his descent into the wrong path.
He Xi needs to bring the foreshadowed elements to life during this process.
His disgust and disdain when looking at Xinbao, his smugness when secretly learning martial arts, and his malice and ruthlessness when facing the head of the Arhat Hall.
He Xi needs to express all these emotions through facial expressions and actions.
With the "high-energy state" enabled, He Xi can directly replicate the performance of the original actor, Qian Xiaohao, and easily accomplish it.
Before that, he actually planned to demonstrate his abilities on his own.
It's a good opportunity to test the acting skills I learned from Zheng Haonan and see if they're sufficient.
In the TV series "The Mysterious Cases of Hong Kong Island", before Cheng Ho-nam fully revealed his perverted actions, there were foreshadowing and hints in his micro-expressions and actions.
Unfortunately, as it turns out, the performance was not as simple as He Xi had imagined.
The psychopathic lawyer played by Zheng Haonan is different from Dong Tianbao's character, so he can't be directly copied.
He Xi's current acting skills are not enough to support him in grafting the performance of another character onto Dong Tianbao.
So in the end, in order not to delay the schedule, he still used up his "high-energy time" and activated the copy ninja mode, successfully finished filming the scene, and did not let the crew waste time on him.
"Not bad, Xi-zai!"
"Good performance, passed! Keep it up!"
Yuan Heping looked at He Xi with a smile.
"I didn't expect you to be so good at fighting, and also so good at acting in dramatic scenes."
"You have a bright future, keep up the good work!"
Li Lianjie, who was standing nearby, also praised it.
"Axi, you're really amazing, much better than me."
"When I was eighteen and filming 'Shaolin Temple,' I didn't know anything, and we had to film more than a dozen takes for one scene."
"Back then, film was more expensive than it is now. Director Zhang Xinyan almost had a heart attack because of me."
"If I had your talent, I'd not only avoid a lot of criticism, but I might even have won several Hong Kong Film Awards!"
He Xi could only laugh and scratch his head.
"Thank you for the compliments, Eighth Master and Brother Jie. I'm just a newcomer, a novice in the entertainment industry. My skills are average, my abilities are limited, and I still have a lot to learn!"
This isn't being modest; he's basically relied on superhuman abilities to keep going through his acting career, using high-energy moments to sustain his performance.
In terms of acting skills, they are really not good.
He Xi was thinking that if she had the chance, she could find a teacher and learn acting skills systematically.
Ideally, it should be someone with formal training who can systematically explain acting techniques and has a wealth of theoretical and practical experience.
Uncle Liu Xun is actually quite suitable.
He began learning Peking Opera at the age of 6, led a Chinese art troupe to perform abroad at the age of 14, and went to Hong Kong at the age of 41 in 80, where he began to work as a lecturer at the Hong Kong Island Academy for Performing Arts.
In 86, he began serving as the opera instructor for Tsui Hark's "Peking Opera Blues" and also played a guest role, thus officially entering the entertainment industry.
Since then, Liu Xun has become one of the most evergreen supporting actors in Hong Kong films.
Over the course of seven or eight years, she appeared in dozens of productions.
Enlightened monks, loyal ministers and generals, treacherous eunuchs, upright fathers...
He has played a wide variety of roles, both good and evil, but each one is very successful and convincing.
He was even given a nickname in the industry: "Thousand-Faced Buddha"!
This demonstrates his exceptional ability to create compelling characters.
If his acting skills could be copied, He Xi would still be able to make a name for himself in the entertainment industry and thrive even without the system's cheat codes.
Heart is worse than action.
That evening, He Xi approached Liu Xun.
"Uncle Xun, are you busy tonight?"
Liu Xun was very polite when he saw He Xi.
He was always an easygoing person, and he was always kind, whether he was facing a kung fu emperor like Jet Li or a little karaoke fan like He Xi.
"Nothing much, I'm just planning to go for a walk after dinner."
"It's been a long time since I've been back. Beijing has changed a lot in the past few years. There are many buildings that I've never seen before. I want to go out and see them."
"I'll also meet up with a few friends."
Liu Xun was born in Beijing and spent most of his life there before he turned 40.
Now that I'm back, I'm going back to my hometown, so naturally there are some personal matters that need to be taken care of.
Seeing this, He Xi had no choice but to abandon her idea of asking for advice and turn to think of another way.
The remaining members of the crew included Jet Li, Michelle Yeoh, and Fennie Yuen...
None of these big names have formal training, and none of them are known for their acting skills.
Contacting them would be a waste of time, and they might not even have the time or resources for it.
Just as He Xi was worrying, she turned around and saw a young and beautiful figure.
"Oh no, how could I have forgotten about her!"
