The King of Soft Rice in Chinese Entertainment

Chapter 518 Cameo
Xu Jiuyang stayed with Fan Bingbing for several days before leaving, and then joined the cast and crew of "Chinese Paladin 2".

That's right, it's "Chinese Paladin 2" and not "Soldiers Sortie," even though the latter has already started filming.

As mentioned before, Xiaoli's side has bought the copyrights to the entire Legend of Sword and Fairy series. Since the first part has already been filmed, of course they will film the second part, and then the third part.

Anyway, she doesn't make money from this.

Then, since the first part was basically based on the game, the second part was no exception. So, Li Xiaoyao, Zhao Ling'er, and Lin Yueru will all make cameo appearances.

"I was wondering what kind of bed scene it was, but it turns out it was this kind of bed scene! You really lay there the whole time on set, Yang-gege?" Tang Yan said, pouting as she nestled in someone's arms.

"What, you want to jump up and do a 'Go for good' move?" Xu Jiuyang chuckled, patting her head.

"Of course I want to, but Brother Yang said no, so I'll just stay here obediently," Tang Yan said coquettishly.

"Tangtang, if you always obey me unconditionally like this, you'll become a simp," Xu Jiuyang shook his head, feigning nonchalance.

"So what if I'm a simp? Lots of people want to be Yang-gege's simp but can't," Tang Yan said nonchalantly. Then, glancing at the bathroom in the hotel room, she lowered her voice and said, "Besides, if I don't become Yang-gege's simp, I'm afraid I'll fall behind."

"How could that be, you little simp?" Xu Jiuyang patted her head and glanced towards the bathroom. "Speaking of which, I think I heard that you guys are quite popular at school?"

"No, Shishi and I are just nobody, just followers. It's Qianqian and Mimi who get all the attention." Tang Yan stuck out her tongue, but there wasn't a trace of jealousy in her tone.

"Really?" Xu Jiuyang raised an eyebrow. "You are Lin Yueru."

“Sissi is Wang Yuyan, Zhao Ling’er, and now we’ve added Little Dragon Girl to the mix, not to mention Aunt Liu is so amazing.” Tang Yan said seriously, “However, the most eye-catching one is still Mimi.”

"Why?" Xu Jiuyang asked curiously.

"Because she earned a fortune that most people could never earn in a lifetime before she was even an adult, and she did it all from scratch," Tang Yan said with a grin. "After all, no one knows how much Yang-gege helped her."

"I only helped her out; she earned the rest herself," Xu Jiuyang chuckled. "But even so, she shouldn't have attracted the most attention, right?"

“Yes, but Mimi did something else,” Tang Yan continued. “She has a company to take care of, so she takes leave every few days. As a result, a teacher complained to the vice dean, Cui Xinqin. Vice dean Cui was quite responsible. He talked to Mimi, and then Mimi donated 100 million yuan to the school.”

Xu Jiuyang was speechless. This was indeed shocking. A young girl who had just come of age not only had her own business and film company, but could also casually donate 100 million yuan. Even if she chose to keep a low profile, it would quickly become a hot topic at the school.

So, it goes without saying which one will impress a group of young people more: a girl whose mother is a millionaire and who has played several classic roles, or a girl who is young but already has a considerable fortune and built it up herself.

He even suspected that Yang Mi might have done this on purpose, first by making various absences, then by introducing her business to the leaders, and finally by offering to donate money.

Otherwise, she could have made the donation right away instead of trying to salvage the situation after things went wrong.

At that moment, the bathroom door finally opened, and Liu Qianqian poked her head out.

"Tangtang, it's your turn." She tried her best to keep a calm expression.

"Brother Yang, wait for me a moment, I'll be right there." Tang Yan jumped off the bed happily and ran into the bathroom, not forgetting to kiss Liu Qianqian, which made the latter roll her eyes. "Actually, if you..." Xu Jiuyang wanted to say something, but was immediately interrupted by Liu Qianqian, who seemed fierce: "Don't you dare shake my resolve!"

"Okay, okay, no wavering, no wavering." All the person could do was shrug.

I don't know where she learned this hypocritical attitude. Right now she seems to be resisting terribly, but she's going to shout out a certain forbidden word very loudly later.

Xu Jiuyang had mixed feelings. After the last incident, he was worried that certain scenes might occur, but they didn't happen afterward. In addition, he quickly went to the military camp for training, so he calmed down.

But now... well, it's pointless. What's done is done, can't we just deny it? Besides, this time she was the one who took the initiative to bring Tang Yan to her door, and it seems like... I can't think about it anymore, let it be.

Anyway, let's just maintain this current understanding.

The cameo appearances were few; Liu Qianqian and Tang Yan filmed for three days, Xu Jiuyang stayed for two more days, while Li Xiaoyao had more scenes, especially his interactions with Li Yiru.

The actress who plays Li Yiru is Sun Fanqing, yes, the one who will be known as "Little Chicken Beak" in the future. Interestingly, this is her first film and television work, and she is signed with Angela's Bright Light Media.

As for Su Mei and Shen Qishuang, they are played by Yang Xue and Wan Qian respectively, which is obviously another collaboration between the actresses.

In addition, Abbess Qingrou is still played by Zhang Tong, who is also Jiang Wan'er in the first part, which can be considered one of the Easter eggs.

In fact, if we're talking about a futuristic version of Chinese Paladin 3, Xu Jiuyang is thinking he could make a cameo appearance as Li Sansi. It's quite normal for a father and son to look alike, and it's even a tradition that could be used to create a Chinese Paladin series TV drama.

However, if it's up to him, there's no need to make any more after the fourth installment. The fifth installment and the spin-offs were rubbish, and the sixth and seventh were no better either. Let whoever wants to make them make them.

Besides, without comparison, there is no harm. There are still quite a few people on the internet nitpicking the first Legend of Sword and Fairy TV series. It is expected that they will intensify their nitpicking of the second and third Legend of Sword and Fairy TV series in the future. If we don't feed them some shit, they won't know what is good.

It's also worth mentioning that the other four of the Five Wonders of Xianxia were selected from Liu Qianqian's female classmates in the same year. Although the male lead, Wang Xiaohu, wasn't selected, he was also a graduate of the Beijing Film Academy and was Luo Jin from the class of 02.

When Xu Jiuyang ran into him on set, the feeling was... quite strange, especially since Tang Yan was holding his arm at the time.

In short, apart from Zhang Tong and some older actors, the entire cast and crew were basically graduates of the Beijing Film Academy.

He knew that this was one of the plans that Sister Xiaoli had devised through Liu Qianqian and Fan Bingbing, to fully win over and bind the Beijing Film Academy together, so as to build the Beijing Film Academy into a base for cultivating talents for the next generation.

Anyway, I don't expect the acting skills of actors from Beijing Film Academy or the abilities of directors to be great. As long as they are qualified and usable and have normal aesthetic sense, that's enough. Whether a big production is qualified or not is strongly correlated with the producer's management of the production team.

To this end, they also took advantage of Zhang Mo's incident to severely damage the Central Academy of Drama, which competes with the Beijing Film Academy in terms of business. The Beijing People's Art Theatre is not worth paying attention to; they occupy the top ecological niche in acting skills and are generally not needed in movies and TV series.

The Central Academy of Drama has not yet recovered, and a certain woman surnamed Tong has disappeared after dropping out of school. However, it is said that a certain brand in a certain industry in Japan launched a new actress who looks very much like Zhang Ziyi last year, and she is quite popular.

"That's quite a big deal. Their ability to think three steps ahead for every step they take is even better than mine." Before leaving the film crew, Xu Jiuyang casually reviewed Xiaoli and the others' actions and couldn't help but remark on it.

It seems I'll have to keep my mouth shut from now on; who knows what they were dreaming about back then.
