This director lacks vision.

Chapter 330 Steel and Iron Bones
Jiang Yifeng invited Lisa not only to be Qin Lan's stand-in, but also to generate some buzz for the "Big Lost" show.

Jiang Yifeng considered the casting for the movie "Lost in..." and ultimately decided not to use Li Chenggong and Huang Bai as the two main leads.

The main reason is that the characters Li Chenggong and Huang Bai in the movie "Lost in Thailand" already had distinct characteristics.

Using these two characters to tell a new story in "Lost in Thailand" would either be very limiting or would break the audience's immersion in the story. It would be better to use two completely new characters.

However, this would weaken the connection between Lost in Thailand and the previous two films.

Inviting the transgender queen to play one of the other Avatars and to be Qin Lan's stand-in could also generate buzz and nostalgia for the movie "Lost in Thailand," giving the audience a sense of familiarity.

As for teasing Xu Zheng, it was Jiang Yifeng's intention to liven up the atmosphere on set and set an example for everyone.

The effect of the performance was excellent.

Except for Xu Zheng, who was in a rather miserable state, everyone else was laughing very happily.

Especially in the scene where Lisa plays the body double, she and Xu Zheng passionately kiss in the car.

Everyone watched with smiles, and quite a few people offered new ideas, two of which Jiang Yifeng adopted.

This is the best atmosphere for a comedy film.

Xu Zheng was really going all out. At first, the guy was a little resistant, but later he started to enjoy it.

I don't know if I mentally considered Lisa a woman, or if I just thought ladyboys were pretty good...

After the first scene was filmed smoothly, Xu Zheng pretended to be crying and asked, "Director Jiang, was the whole process of how I was tortured today filmed? Will it be edited into behind-the-scenes footage later?"

Jiang Yifeng gave a thumbs up and said with a smile, "You're really smart. I'll have Wang Sicong give you some feedback later."

Upon hearing this, Huang Bai burst out laughing. He said, "It should be Young Master Wang who gives the comments; he's a professional."

However, compared to you, Lao Xu, Wang Shao is still a bit lacking.

He was just hugging and cuddling, but Lao Xu, you were kissing and nibbling all over him.

After being teased by Huang Bai, Xu Zheng immediately retaliated: "I think we should give Huang Bai more screen time, let him play a wealthy lady from Qingdao, or a gay man, it would definitely have a great comedic effect!"

Jiang Yifeng nodded and said, "That's a good idea. We can give it a try. Geng Hao will be tortured a lot in the movie."

Xu Zheng, think it over carefully. Use your intelligence to make Huang Bai's sacrifice worthwhile and achieve sufficient comedic effect!

Huang Bai: "???"

Seeing Huang Bai's puzzled expression, Xu Zheng felt much better.

But then Jiang Yifeng said to him, "I'll film Huang Bai's scenes first. You should go get your makeup done."

Xu Zheng asked, "What kind of makeup do I need to wear?"

"You're going to dress up as an Avatar! You'll be down there later, and Lisa will ride you."

Xu Zheng: "..."

Jiang Yifeng's move was truly unexpected; Xu Zheng never anticipated it.

When Xu Zheng's pot-bellied Avatar walked out, Huang Bai almost burst out laughing, and the others laughed along with him.

The first day of filming was filled with joy.

The next day, everyone went to the airport to film. Liu Yifei and Shu Chang played lesbians in a scene that made everyone laugh.

With Jiang Yifeng's "dawdling," Liu Yifei and Shu Chang kissed many times, and he took pictures of them from various angles, leaving them with precious memories.

Filming in Kunming was quite comfortable, mainly because the climate in the "Spring City" is pleasant; even in the height of summer, the highest daytime temperature is only around 25 degrees Celsius.

In addition, the lead actors are all very professional actors, and those who work with Jiang Yifeng are the elite of Fengxing Media.

So the filming went very smoothly.

After spending 14 days in Kunming filming their scenes, they started chartering a car to travel to Dali.

We selected several more locations along the way to take photos, which took some time.

The film crew finally arrived in Dali on July 30th.

Strictly speaking, the scenes in Dali aren't that many; if all goes well, filming can be completed in about ten days.

Jiang Yifeng planned to stay in Dali for a while longer, but ultimately he was unable to do so.

Fortunately, the journey from Kunming to Dali was quite enjoyable, with plenty of opportunities to take photos and have fun.

The reason why tourism in Dali has become so popular is because of the movie "Breakup Buddies".

Although Dali was still quite crowded at this time, it was not as commercialized as it would be in the future. It had some tourism infrastructure but had not been overdeveloped, making it the best time to visit.

Yunnan is plagued by numerous tourist scams and scandals, yet it still attracts many tourists every year, mainly because its natural scenery is truly stunning.

The Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake in Dali, with their romantic scenery, are truly remarkable.

In particular, the high altitude and clear terrain create a sense of transparency, with extremely high visibility, making the whole world seem clear.

Whether you're looking at mountains and the sea, or stargazing and moon-gazing, you'll have a unique experience.

To minimize disruption, the production team chose Xizhou Ancient Town, located opposite Shuanglang, as their base.

Jiang Yifeng's residence is a guesthouse hotel built on the shore of Erhai Lake.

This guesthouse has three floors and a total of seven rooms, which were booked by Jiang Yifeng and four other women, including Gao Yuanyuan.

The five of them, along with their assistant and a group member surnamed Song, lived together here.

After packing their luggage, Shu Chang suggested, "We're not filming today, so why don't we go to the Tianlong Babu Film City for a stroll?"
Time flies. It's almost been 11 years since I filmed "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" with Sisi.

Upon hearing Shu Chang's suggestion, Jiang Yifeng nodded involuntarily, thinking it was a good idea.

Shu Chang and Liu Yifei only had a few scenes in "Lost in...", and filming was completed long ago. The two women are very relaxed here; they're just here for a vacation.

Seeing Jiang Yifeng's expression, Gao Yuanyuan smiled and said, "Going to the Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils TV series is fine, but you have Tianshan Child Granny and Wang Yuyan, what roles would Qin Lan and I play?"

Song Zuer also raised her hand and said, "Me too! I want to play Zhong Ling!"

Shu Chang had already planned ahead. She said with a smile, "Sister Yuanyuan, you will play Li Qiushui, Sister Lan will play Madam Wang Li Qingluo, and our Director Jiang can choose his own roles."

Jiang Yifeng smiled broadly and asked, "What kinds of roles are available?"

Liu Yifei replied, "You can play as Duan Yu, that's a normal strategy game."
You can also play the role of Xu Zhu, which is a punishment game for the weak and submissive;

You can also play the role of Ding Chunqiu, which is a game of betraying one's master and ancestors;
Or perhaps we could play the role of Wuyazi, which would be our game of turning to the dark side.

"Turning to the dark side?"

“That’s right!” Liu Yifei said proudly, “Changchang and I prepared the clothes in advance. They’re dark martial arts style, which will make the character’s dark side at least ten times stronger!”

Liu Yifei and Shu Chang were indeed very well prepared, and they had prepared many sets of clothes.

Jiang Yifeng thought he was going to enjoy himself, but after arriving at the film studio, he turned into a photography tool, constantly taking pictures of the beautiful women.

After all, the film studio had become a tourist attraction, with many visitors, making it inconvenient to do certain things.

Fortunately, Jiang Yifeng still enjoyed quite a few perks; five beautiful women were all vying to take photos with him, creating a stunningly beautiful scene.

Seeing them dressed in ancient costumes, Jiang Yifeng experienced a completely different feeling.

Especially Liu Yifei, who was already beautiful in period costumes, became even more youthful after taking beauty potions.

Now, dressed in a pink gown, she plays Wang Yuyan, and her appearance seems to have returned to that of a fourteen or fifteen-year-old, but her overall temperament is even better.

Jiang Yifeng also changed into several ancient costumes and took photos with the beauties.

Everyone had a great time and didn't return to their hotel rooms until after 9 p.m.

"Honey, wait a minute, let's go change into the real dark-themed outfit, it'll only take half an hour!"

Liu Yifei kissed Jiang Yifeng, then took Shu Chang, Gao Yuanyuan, and Qin Lan to change clothes.

Song Zuer obediently went to the next room; she would sleep with her assistant tonight.

Jiang Yifeng, having nothing to do, opened Weibo and found that the trending topics had exploded.

"Jiang Yifeng, Gao Yuanyuan, Liu Yifei, Shu Chang, and Qin Lan in ancient costumes pose for a group photo!"

"Jiang Yifeng's portrayal of Duan Yu is so handsome!"

"Liu Yifei sings a song that takes you back to ten years ago."

"The fairy sister is even more beautiful after ten years!" "Shu Chang's figure!"

While taking photos and having fun at the film studio today, Liu Yifei and Shu Chang posted many Weibo posts, sharing a lot of beautiful photos.

Gao Yuanyuan and Qin Lan also posted some.

These Weibo posts quickly became trending topics, sparking widespread discussion.

Jiang Yifeng browsed through the list casually. Many netizens praised his good looks, some reminisced about the past, and quite a few envied Jiang Yifeng's good fortune with women.

In addition, Shu Chang's changes in body shape have also sparked a lot of discussion.

"Holy crap, Shu Chang is this big! I underestimated her!"

"Shu Chang looks so youthful and giant-like now, I'm so envious of Jiang Yifeng!"

"Shu Chang's breasts were definitely not this big before, she must have had plastic surgery."

"How can you say she's not young? There's a photo of Shu Chang and Song Zu'er together before, she wasn't exactly young, was she?"

"I have three guesses: technology made him bigger, Jiang Yifeng had plastic surgery to make him bigger, or he got bigger because he was pregnant and gave birth. Which one do you believe?"

"I think it's padded, and it's also convenient to padded it up when wearing period costumes."

"I firmly believe that Jiang Yifeng has special techniques. Not only did Shu Chang get bigger, but Gao Yuanyuan and Liu Yifei also became much more radiant."

"This reminds me of what Qin Lan said: Jiang Yifeng has a cheat code!"

"What kind of cheat code? That's bullshit. Be scientific, okay? It's probably just some kind of advanced technology."

"Jiang Yifeng's physical abilities are beyond science. Surrounded by a bunch of Avatars, he's getting stronger and stronger. Even Jackie Chan can't compare to him!"

……

Jiang Yifeng smiled upon seeing these comments.

Once a fact occurs, it is quickly accepted, and people will find a reasonable explanation for it.

Take Song Zuer for example; she now insists on drinking red date, honeycomb, and papaya milk every day.

Shu Chang likes to drink this stuff, mainly because it helps improve spleen deficiency.

But Song Zuer felt that this was Shu Changfeng's secret to growing up quickly, and she also wanted to grow up quickly.

Qin Lan, however, firmly believes that this is a combination of learning from experience and applying skills.

As for Shu Chang herself, she accepted all of this much faster.

Because the beauty potion was a reward given to Jiang Yifeng by the system, it contains Jiang Yifeng's genetic information, and other people who take it will experience a slight hypnotic effect.

After drinking it, their liking for Jiang Yifeng will increase, and their trust in him will be at its maximum.

After reading the Weibo post, Jiang Yifeng was about to take a shower when he saw that Nazha had sent him a message.

[Uncle! I want to take a photo with you in ancient costume too!]

Then I saw in the harem group chat that Naza was "flaming" people.

Some people just love to show off. They have to post every little photo on Weibo. Do you two think you're the only ones who know how to show off?

Clearly, Shu Chang and Liu Yifei's public display of affection on Weibo displeased Nazha.

Fortunately, Nazha has grown a lot. He didn't mention Gao Yuanyuan, but specifically referred to the two of you, only targeting Liu Yifei and Shu Chang.

Naza sent several messages in the group, but no one replied.

Jiang Yifeng could hear Shu Chang and Liu Yifei, who were changing clothes in the next room, laughing happily.

Clearly, Shu Chang had planned this trip to the film studio today to take photos, show off her love, and make Nazha jealous.

They were very happy to see the information about the hairstyle.

This is where Naza was young.

Jing Tian understood perfectly that even if she was unhappy, she wouldn't send a message, as doing so would only embolden her opponent.

Jiang Yifeng replied "OK" to Nazha, got up to take a shower, and then received a system notification.

[Work: Youth]

Quality of the work: 5 stars. An excellent film by Zuo Yi, which contrasts the youth of two generations in two different eras with an interwoven narrative. While showcasing the differences between the times, it also satirizes certain groups and phenomena.

The film reveals the tragic truth of the failure of the Zuo Yi movement, and is supplemented by an inspirational and passionate narrative, which increases the film's watchability and achieves a certain degree of commercial success.

Film's performance: 5 stars. In 2 months of release, it grossed 16.6 billion yuan in China and 5.4 million yuan in overseas markets, for a total global box office of 22 billion yuan, with an overall return of over 20 times.

Impact of the work: 5 stars. The film won the Palme d'Or at Cannes and generated a great deal of discussion both at home and abroad.

After its release in France, the film attracted 320 million viewers, becoming the highest-grossing Chinese-language film in France.

The film received official recognition in China, sparking a certain ideological movement and squeezing the living space of certain groups.

Overall, this is a phenomenal classic film.

Overall rating: 5 stars, rewarding 1 excellent draw chance / 3 good draw chances / 9 ordinary draw chances.

Shall we start the prize draw now?

The film "Youth" was released on May 30th, and later received a key to extend its run, resulting in a total of 60 days of screening in China.

The film itself was very popular, and with the official organized screenings, the overall box office performance was still very strong, with 16.6 billion yuan, second only to John Wick in the domestic market.

As for the performance of "Youth" overseas, it can be said to be polarized.

The box office performance in Japan and the United States was relatively average, totaling only a little over 2600 million US dollars.

However, they performed very well in Europe.

Especially in France, it attracted 320 million viewers and generated a total box office of 3400 million euros.

With additional contributions from other parts of Europe and sporadic sales in the Asian market, Youth's overseas box office totaled 5.4 million RMB, which is quite good overall.

Jiang Yifeng had high expectations for Fanghua, and the system's evaluation did not disappoint him. As expected, it gave him a 5-star overall rating, which allowed him to have an excellent chance to draw a prize, with a high probability of winning a gold reward!

This time, Jiang Yifeng took a bath and burned incense before choosing to participate in the lottery.

[Congratulations, host, you have drawn the golden talent "Iron Bones".]

[Strong Bones and Muscles: The strength and resilience of your bones and muscles are extraordinary.]

This was the simplest description of the gold talent that Jiang Yifeng had ever seen, consisting of only one sentence.

He felt warm all over, as if he had been put back into the womb and reborn.

The enhancement was completed in about 2 minutes.

Jiang Yifeng felt a surge of power!

If the Inner Strength Talent strengthens the internal organs, keeping Jiang Yifeng's body healthy and providing logistical support, then the Steel Bones and Iron Body enhances the body's hardware capabilities, greatly improving its explosive power, flexibility, and defensive strength!
Jiang Yifeng looked down and felt it, and understood what steel bones meant.

He happily arrived at the third-floor lobby and saw Liu Yifei coming out of her room.

She wore a black, modernized ancient-style outfit, her body partially concealed, yet exuding a powerful queenly aura.

He held a whip as a weapon and wore a wide red collar around his neck with a string of bronze bells hanging from it.

His face was also covered in red and black paint, his left thigh had a spider-shaped temporary tattoo, and his right thigh had a black ring with a delicate dagger stuck in it.

The overall look is definitely dark and alluring.

Seeing that Jiang Yifeng's gaze was drawn to her, Liu Yifei was quite pleased. She smiled and asked, "Old Jiang, who are you going to play today? How about Xu Zhu first?"

Shu Chang also came out, wearing a modified bellyband outfit.

"I guess Lao Jiang will play the role of Ding Chunqiu; he prefers to take the initiative."

But then Jiang Yifeng said, "Today I'm going to play Lao Ai!"

Liu Yifei and Shu Chang asked in unison, "Why?"

Jiang Yifeng chuckled and replied, "You'll find out soon enough!"
