Chinese entertainment starts with Hong Shixian

Chapter 226 Qi Hui: I Was Just Born with Divine Strength
a few days later.

It's time for Yang Tianbao's acting segment, which is Xu Ke's biggest headache.

Moreover, it's one of those scenes where you can't avoid saying your lines.

These scenes are the ones where Di Renjie and Shatuo Zhong take "Dragon King" Yuan Zhen and the poisoned Yuan Gongzi to find the imperial physician Wang Pu.

I wonder how many people who watched this movie realized that the slovenly imperial physician Wang Pu was actually played by Chen Kun.

This character is crazy, but luckily he has a thick beard and strange makeup, otherwise he would have been recognized.

In fact, there are quite a few big names in Detective Dee: Rise of the Sea Dragon, including Chen Kun and Lin Chong.

The Lin Chong in the new version of Water Margin is the main villain in Rise of the Sea Dragon.

No wonder he wields the dragon head staff so skillfully; he's the instructor of the 800,000 Imperial Guards!
These scenes were not originally scheduled to be night scenes, but Xu Ke changed them to night scenes, probably because he felt that dim lighting would make it easier to avoid Yang Tianbao's acting skills.

Therefore, in order to accommodate these night scenes, Qi Hui's night scenes were also moved up.

It was the fight with the main villain at the home of Imperial Physician Wang Pu.

At the edge of the film set, Qi Hui sat listlessly, waiting for Yang Tianbao and the others to finish filming.

However, don't count on this progress. With a troublesome guy like Yang Tianbao, even if Qi Hui wanted to speed things up, Xu Ke wouldn't be able to.

Fortunately, Mr. Qi's health was not bad, and he could withstand staying up for several nights.

Chachacha~
Bored, he pulled out some carving tools and began to carefully carve the bluefish stone.

This is the stone from the bluefish that Jing Tian caught.

This thing is orange with a hint of red, and its shape is very similar to a heart. It looks beautiful after being polished.

With some additional carving, it would be perfect for making pendants and decorative items.

He had been carving for several nights, and a chubby, round-headed tiger's head appeared on it, which was quite cute.

Jing Tian said she liked tigers, so Qi Hui carved this pattern for her.

"Hey, Qi Hui, what are you doing?"

At this moment, a familiar voice rang out. Qi Hui turned his head and saw that it was Zhou Xun, with Gao Yuanyuan by his side.

As he asked the question, Zhou Xun moved closer to Qi Hui, and upon seeing the Qingyu Stone, he couldn't take his eyes off it.

"Wow, it's so beautiful!" Zhou Xun exclaimed. "You can make this?"

"Wait, what kind of material is this?"

Everyone has their own expertise; she's not a fisherman, after all.

“The Blue Fish Stone,” Qi Hui explained, “is a hard object located in the throat of a blue fish.”

"Oh, is this the stone from the bluefish your boyfriend caught?" Gao Yuanyuan suddenly realized and said.

"Ah...oh, right, right." Qi Hui was somewhat surprised that Gao Yuanyuan knew about this.

"Oh, I see..." Zhou Xun suddenly realized.

"Uh... what's going on here?" Qi Hui finally realized that it was a bit strange that Zhou Xun and Gao Yuanyuan were here.

"Visiting the set," Zhou Xun said with a smile.
“Yes,” Gao Yuanyuan said, “We happen to be nearby and have nothing else to do.”

"Besides, you and Teacher Chen Kun are also in this film crew, so you came in for a stroll."

Upon hearing this, Qi Hui raised an eyebrow and looked at Gao Yuanyuan with some surprise. At this moment, she should be all lovey-dovey with Zhao Youting.

Why did you come all the way here?
"What are you looking at?" Zhou Xun said irritably, "Men are unreliable, so I brought my sisters out to relax."

"Ahem... I understand." Qi Hui coughed lightly, guessing that the relationship between Zhao and Gao had changed.

This... shouldn't have anything to do with me, Qi, right?
I was just saying a few witty remarks, it's not that serious.

It's probably because their personalities clash; after all, when combined, they become Zhao Gao, so they're obviously not suited to be together.

Right, that is it!

Qi Hui thought for a moment and didn't ask for details, since Zhou Xun was still there and it wasn't appropriate to go into too much detail.

"Let's go get some barbecue after we finish filming?" Gao Yuanyuan invited.

Qi Hui looked at him strangely and said, "Well... I guess we won't be able to have this barbecue."

"What?"

"The progress is slow. Our female lead... is not simple." Qi Hui carefully chose his words and said meaningfully.

"Really...?" Zhou Xun expressed disbelief.

She's been acting for so many years, what kind of people hasn't she seen?
"Come on, let's go see what's going on." She took Gao Yuanyuan's hand and walked into the film set.

Qi Hui didn't go over; watching Yang Tianbao act made him feel emotional. About twenty minutes later, Zhou Xun and Gao Yuanyuan returned with conflicted expressions.

"Hahaha..." Qi Hui laughed upon seeing this; Yang Tianbao's destructive power was still quite formidable.

"What's wrong with this guy?" Zhou Xun asked, speechless. It was the first time she had ever seen an actor like this.

The director taught her a simple glance back gesture thirty times, but when it was her turn, she still couldn't do it right.

Zhou Xun admitted that she had been a bit arrogant just now.

In all her years of acting, this was the first time she had ever met an actor like this.

She didn't even know if someone like that could be called an actor.

"Who is this person? What's his background?" Gao Yuanyuan asked.

“Her name is AB, a young model from Hong Kong,” Qi Hui explained. “It’s said that she has some connection with Huang Xiaoming and also has one-eighth German ancestry.”

"Young models?" Zhou Xun was shocked. Young models? Are they really legitimate?

And this English name, why is it so strange?
Angels and babies, why does that sound so inappropriate?
"One-eighths German ancestry?" Gao Yuanyuan was equally shocked: "Are you sure she's not joking about ancestry?"

Aside from pet dogs, this was the first time she had ever heard of living animals discussing their pedigree.

Qi Hui shrugged: "That's what they say, but I don't know the specifics."

Soon, the two women began asking Qi Hui questions about Yang Tianbao, looking very curious.

Both of them are actors, and they are very interested in people who are not actors but can play leading roles.

How did you do that?
Qi Hui put away the bluefish stone and barely managed to deal with the two gossipy women.

When women get gossipy, it's really hard to resist.

Fortunately, Xu Ke's shout saved Qi Hui, and it was finally his turn to go on stage.

Zhou Xun and Gao Yuanyuan were shocked to see Qi Hui change into his costume and sling a Tang sword over his shoulder: "An action scene?"

“Yes,” Qi Hui said, quickly entering the arena.

Soon, Zhou Xun and Gao Yuanyuan encountered an even more formidable opponent:
Lin Chong!

"Qi Hui's opponent is Lin Chong?" Zhou Xun asked in shock. "Isn't he someone who doesn't know martial arts?"

The two whispered to each other, and soon everything on set was ready, and filming began.

"Teacher Qi, please go easy on me," Hu Dong said with a stiff smile.

"Teacher Hu, you're joking." Qi Hui quickly said, "You're an expert, you should be the one letting me win."

"Hehe..." Hu Dong smiled insincerely. Qi Hui's swordsmanship was swift and fierce, so fast that sometimes he couldn't even react.

He's not young anymore, he can't compete with these young people.

"Alright, all departments, pay attention!" the executive director shouted. "3, 2, 1, action!"

At a command, Qi Hui, wielding a Tang sword, and Hu Dong, carrying a dragon-headed staff, began fighting in the chaotic medical clinic film set.

One technique involved a powerful and forceful staff strike, while the other was swift, fast, and dazzling with skill.

The gleaming blade reflected the flashes of light, creating a terrifying effect, almost like special effects.

"What the heck..." Zhou Xun stared wide-eyed, his face filled with disbelief: "That bastard Qi Hui, he even said he didn't know martial arts!?"

"That's unreasonable!"

She was furious. Whenever asked about it on the set of "Painted Skin 2", Qi Hui would insist that he didn't know martial arts.

Looking at it now, he's even more impressive than Chang Wei!

Gao Yuanyuan was also speechless; she still remembered Qi Hui's worthless literature:
[Facing Donnie Yen, I'm not without options; I also face certain death!]

It now seems that it is not Qi Hui who is doomed, but Zhen Zidan.

……

On set, during a break from filming.

Qi Hui put down the knife and took a breather.

Then, in the blink of an eye, I saw Zhou Xun and Gao Yuanyuan, their gazes deep and meaningful.

"Ahem... well, do you believe me or not, I just have superhuman strength?" Qi Hui smiled awkwardly.

"I don't believe you!" Zhou Xun said disdainfully.

“Men never tell the truth!” Gao Yuanyuan snorted.
