Chinese entertainment starts with Hong Shixian

Chapter 230 of "Fire Blue Blade" premieres (4 updates)
Fengtai, a small villa.

At Wu Jing's home.

When the sun was high in the sky, Wu Jing slowly practiced a set of Tai Chi to loosen up his muscles and bones.

Logically speaking, having left the army not long ago, he should have done a five-kilometer morning exercise like Qi Hui.

How do seniors start learning Tai Chi?
The reason is simple: he found a girlfriend who is about ten years younger than him.

Where would I find the energy to run five kilometers?
Being able to practice Tai Chi is already quite an achievement!
Inside, Xie Nan was radiant, humming a little tune as she made breakfast.

Soon after, the sound of someone calling Wu Jing to have breakfast came from inside the house.

"Are we going to the Beijing Film Academy again later?" Xie Nan asked, slurping up beef vermicelli and taking a bite of a pan-fried bun.

She comes from Luzhou, a city very much like Sun Quan's.

"I'm not going." Wu Jing said while eating the breakfast Xie Nan made. "Today is the first day of the premiere of Qi Hui's 'Fire Blue Blade.' I plan to see how it goes."

Since finishing filming "Special Forces: Sharp Blade", Wu Jing has been staying at home and has not filmed any more movies.

At most, they'll appear on one or two shows to maintain their popularity and audience appeal.

The rest of the time was spent either auditing classes at the Beijing Film Academy's directing department or the Central Academy of Drama's directing department.

He had long harbored the idea of ​​making his own movies, and despite the failure of "Wolf Warrior," this idea remained unchanged.

So he worked on refining the story while simultaneously learning professional knowledge.

"Hmm..." Xie Nan nodded, somewhat pleased.

In no time, the two finished breakfast, stretched a bit to digest, and prepared to watch some TV dramas later.

"Why are you sitting so far away?" Xie Nan said irritably.

"Oh..." Wu Jing shifted his buttocks, but it looked like he hadn't moved at all.

Despite having trained for over twenty or thirty years, he's not good enough.

He always thought he would grow old and strong, but the truth is he almost became immortal.

You can't mess with a young woman, and you can't mess with a woman ten years younger!

Xie Nan didn't indulge him; she pulled him over and used him as a pillow.

Soon, the opening theme song started playing on the television, and a flashing navy blue light appeared on the screen.

Wu Jing perked up and focused all her attention on the television screen.

The opening theme song ended quickly, and the story of "Fire Blue Blade" officially began.

The film opens with frogmen on a mission, with a warship anchored on the sea.

It looks a bit old, and its hull number still starts with 9.

However, it's not a big problem. Everyone has seen the decline of the navy, and the expectations are very low.

That's good enough. They don't even have an aircraft carrier, so what outstanding performance can we expect?

But then, the villain Thomas detonates a bomb, and as the explosion rings out, a frogman slowly sinks into the sea.

Wu Jing, who had been nonchalant just moments before, suddenly felt a jolt of anxiety.

Soon, the scene changes to three years later, when the navy is recruiting.

Then Qi Hui appeared, selling the same grave twice, and talking about the benefits of a martyrs' cemetery.

That's very well said; Wu Jing and Xie Nan almost believed it.

If Long Baichuan hadn't appeared, they wouldn't have realized that Qi Hui's portrayal of Jiang Xiaoyu was a hoax.

"This kid's acting isn't bad..." Wu Jing muttered.

Acting skills are a weakness for martial arts actors; these people always prefer to act rather than talk.

Li Lianjie was like that, he was like that, and even the arrogant Zhen Zidan was like that.

But Qi Hui's move just now looked exactly like the real thing.

He's even starting to consider looking at properties near the cemetery.

Soon, Xiao Zhang appeared. The cool and handsome swimming champion, along with his deliberately muscular physique, immediately caught Xie Nan's attention.

Then, Qi Hui went into the water to save people, and the ten-minute kissing scene began.

Wu Jing looked closely and was somewhat disappointed: "So it was a stand-in."

He is a professional martial arts actor and has worked as a stunt double many times, so it's easy to tell whether someone is a stunt double or not.

"Huh? What stand-in?" Xie Nan asked, puzzled. This plot was interesting, but she hadn't paid much attention.

"Both actresses who filmed the kissing scene were women," Wu Jing said. "Qi Hui didn't kiss her."

"Hahaha, I guess he's afraid of Jing Tian." Wu Jing laughed, his tone tinged with schadenfreude. You're all so arrogant, but you're afraid of your wife?

Xie Nan smiled upon hearing this, finding it amusing as well.

……

Chaoyang, Ling Family Villa.

Old Ling and Tang Yifei were already waiting in front of the TV.

He was very curious about what kind of TV series would make Qi Hui give up "Sharp Blade" to act in it.

Soon, the TV series started airing, and the two became increasingly engrossed in watching it.

Before long, all the new recruits in the Beast Camp gathered, and after a chaotic period of commotion, Jiang Xiaoyu, played by Qi Hui, also joined the recruit training.

Then... Qi Hui showed Lao Ling and Tang Yifei what it meant to be a fancy way of slacking off and a fancy way of being a newbie.

"Hahaha..." Old Ling slapped his thigh and laughed. Although he knew it was fake, he was overjoyed to see Qi Hui make a fool of himself.

"Hmm, Xiao Zhang is not bad either." Old Ling was in a very good mood and commented, "This college student Lu Yan's arrogant personality has been fully displayed."

"Not only that, he also lacks social skills," Tang Yifei added. "Compared to his previous dramas, he has improved a lot."

"Could it be that Qi Hui taught him?" Old Ling thought of the TV program from a while ago.

Not only Bai Wei and He Ziming, but Xiao Zhang also said that Qi Hui taught him a lot.

It now seems that they taught not only military skills or action direction, but also a lot about acting.

"Qi Hui seems to have always been a very good actor..." Ling Xiaosu muttered.

It feels like he can play any role, especially when he acted in "Young Detective Dee: Rise of the Sea Dragon" a while ago.

The role of Di Renjie was originally intended for Qi Hui, who won the role through an audition.

The result was that he suddenly became Yuchi Zhenjin, and he could still complete the task easily.

Despite having many action scenes, Yuchi Zhenjin is cold and ruthless, requiring little expression.

But playing Di Renjie and playing Yuchi Zhenjin are two different styles, and Qi Hui's ability to quickly switch between them is already quite impressive.

At least, it wasn't easy for Ling to get to this point.

……

Chaoyang, a small villa.

Zhou Xun and Gao Yuanyuan were laughing heartily while watching the TV series "Fire Blue Blade".

This is Gao Yuanyuan's house; Zhao Youting originally lived here as well.

But didn't they break up? So Zhao Youting was kicked out.

Women who own houses are just that assertive.

Zhou Xun moved in to keep her best friend company and comfort her heartbreak.

Zhou Xun is highly experienced in this area.

"I thought it would be a serious military drama, but it turned out to be more like a comedy," Zhou Xun laughed heartily.

Gao Yuanyuan also laughed heartily: "I saw how powerful Qi Hui's martial arts were a while ago, and I thought he was a cold and aloof handsome guy who never smiled."

"I never expected him to be such a goofball, hahaha..."

On the screen, Qi Hui is seen running five kilometers to catch fish, being thrown around while carrying wood, and even vomiting from dizziness during anti-dizziness training.

Besides these, he was also yelled at by Balang and disliked by Lu Yan and Zhang Chong.

He lacked all the coldness and handsomeness of Yuchi Zhenjin.

Gao Yuanyuan once thought that Qi Hui was a cold and aloof swordsman like Ximen Chuixue and Bu Jingyun.

But I never expected that his portrayal of Jiang Xiaoyu would be so hilarious.

The two-episode TV series ended quickly, and the plot progressed to Jiang Xiaoyu and his group of new recruits going out to sea and being stranded on a deserted island.

After that, while all the new recruits were competing, Jiang Xiaoyu went fishing and crabbing, hoping to make a fortune.

After two episodes, the image of a money-grubber is vividly portrayed.

The beginning and end echo each other, which is correct.

Soon, related discussions also arose online.

However, unlike professional actors such as Wu Jing, Lao Ling, Zhou Xun, and Gao Yuanyuan, netizens have always hoped that Jiang Xiaoyu would be the next Xiao Zhuang.

There's no way around it, the character Xiao Zhuang is deeply ingrained in people's minds.
