This director lacks vision.

Chapter 66 A Small Wish

After gaining fame on Moko, Zhang Xinyu underwent plastic surgery.

She already bore a slight resemblance to Fan Bingbing, and her plastic surgery was modeled after Fan Bingbing.

So now it looks even more like it.

With the right makeup and styling, she really looks like Jiangcheng Fan Bingbing.

Seeing Zhang Xinyu's expression, Xu Zheng said with a smile, "Director Jiang, you really have a lot of ideas. You even found a knock-off version of Fan Bingbing."

Most people would be angry if they were called a fake Fan Bingbing.

Zhang Xinyu had no objections at all; on the contrary, she was very happy, as this was exactly the effect she wanted.

She's involved in social circles, mainly by freeloading.

Many of the orders were taken under the guise of Xiao Fan Bingbing.

Zhang Xinyu's strategy was very successful.

In 2014, she also starred in Fan Bingbing's TV series "Wu Zetian" and posted intimate photos with Fan Bingbing on Weibo.

However, due to the intervention of Li Chen, the "stone man," some disputes arose between the ex-girlfriend and the current girlfriend, and between the pirated and the genuine products.

Zhang Xinyu has only acted in one sitcom so far, and her acting skills are almost non-existent. Acting in a movie would be quite a challenge for her.

But Jiang Yifeng didn't need any guidance, because Xu Zheng took care of everything.

He was very enthusiastic towards Zhang Xinyu.

After figuring out Jiang Yifeng's attitude and confirming that he had no interest in the fake Fan Bingbing, this guy stuck to him.

Although Xu Zheng is a seasoned veteran, Zhang Xinyu went from working as a hostess to working at Moko (a Chinese online entertainment platform), then as a football babe, and finally entered the entertainment industry.

The journey was one of overcoming all obstacles and forging ahead.

The skill of pulling and tugging between men and women can be described as unparalleled.

Xu Zheng was completely bewildered by the charade, and didn't gain much advantage, but he was still happily teaching Zhang Xinyu how to act.

The main reason is that although Zhang Xinyu is difficult, she has a good personality, can take a joke, and has high emotional intelligence.

Seeing this, Jiang Yifeng thought Zhang Xinyu was pretty good. She had high emotional intelligence, knew how to handle things, and had the gimmick of being a "Little Fan Bingbing." She was someone he could work with.

After filming wrapped up that evening, he stopped Zhang Xinyu and asked, "Are you interested in acting in the fourth season of Bath King?"

Zhang Xinyu was overjoyed to hear this.

"Of course I'm willing! Thank you, Director Jiang, for giving me this opportunity! I will definitely do my best in my performance."

"The fourth season might be a bit more daring, similar to when Teacher Bo participated before. I need to make this clear to you in advance."

"It's alright, Director Jiang, I'll act however you want!"

Seeing how Zhang Xinyu practically clung to Jiang Yifeng, Xu Zheng suddenly realized that being a director was much more enjoyable.

Women are all willing to pay extra.

He asked with a smile, "I've also seen Bathing King, it's quite funny. How explicit is the fourth season?"

Jiang Yifeng casually said, "It's all your fault."

"What do you mean I caused it?"

"Didn't you tell me to watch more foreign road trip comedies? I did, and I came across one called 'Broken Touch,' which I found quite interesting, and that gave me some inspiration."

"The Journey of Breaking the Touch, I haven't seen it. What's this movie about?"

"It tells the story of a touch-addicted guy who, in order to become a real man, steals his brother's car to go on a date with a beautiful woman, and the various funny things that happen along the way."

To be precise, this film is a combination of road comedy and satirical comedy.

I'm not looking for logic or profound meaning; I just want to have a good laugh.

Upon hearing Jiang Yifeng mention "erotic comedy," Xu Zheng understood. Erotic comedy is a type of comedy that is more mature abroad; it's an art form that falls between comedy and erotic films.

This kind of comedy uses sentimentality as a seasoning and comedy as its theme, but it will ultimately end with "touching" moments, returning to family, love and friendship.

In the context of the novel world, most romantic comedies are borderline pure love stories.

Jiang Yifeng directed "King of Bathhouses," and the first two seasons almost exhausted the bathhouse tropes. The third season took a satirical comedic approach.

In the fourth season, they wanted to change their approach and imitate the style of comedy.

At that time, online dramas were still quite daring. By changing the story's setting to Southeast Asia and appropriately cutting scenes, there were no problems with broadcasting it.

And there is definitely a market for it.

Making this kind of lighthearted romantic comedy is very effective, and it can also help men relieve their sexual frustrations. It can even teach them some tips on being a simp and a gold digger, so it can be considered a great lesson.

Jiang Yifeng stared at Xu Zheng's bald head and said with a smile, "You made me film a drama with explicit content, you have to take responsibility."

Remember to make a cameo appearance then.

He glanced at Wang Baoqiang again and continued, "Baoqiang is coming too, which will be a good opportunity to promote 'Lost in Thailand'."

Xu Zheng did not refuse directly, but asked, "What's the script like? If it's interesting, you can give it a try."

Jiang Yifeng said, "The main storyline is very simple. It's about a man named Xiao Geng who got cancer in his early twenties but was still a 'touch man'. His wish before he died was to break free from touch."

To fulfill his wish, his two good brothers took him to the Dashan Bathing Club.

This led to a series of humorous incidents at the bathhouse.

There are many excellent comedies, one of the most representative being "The Great Wish" produced in Korea.

This movie was also remade in China and renamed "The Last Wish".

Based on the concept of this movie and combined with the background of "The King of Bathing", Jiang Yifeng adapted "The King of Bathing" into its fourth season, "The King of Bathing: A Little Wish".

He plans to make this season longer, at least 20 episodes.

Try to get a rating of three stars or higher to get a chance to win a prize.

Xu Zheng was a shrewd man. After listening to Jiang Yifeng's summary and hearing the name Xiao Geng, he thought he had guessed Jiang Yifeng's thoughts.

So he said, "If Baoqiang is willing to play Xiao Geng, then I can play his friend."

Wang Baoqiang hesitated for a moment, then said, "Director Jiang, I'm getting married next year. My girlfriend, Ma Rong, will have objections if I act in this kind of film. I'm sorry."

At this time, Wang Baoqiang and Ma Rong's relationship was very stable, and the two planned to get married next year.

Regardless of what the future holds for this ill-fated relationship, Wang Baoqiang is at least very happy and committed to it right now.

Jiang Yifeng never thought to remind Wang Baoqiang that he would only realize this when he hit a wall himself.

Xu Zheng knew that Wang Baoqiang would not agree. In fact, he did not want to act in the web series either, but he used Wang Baoqiang to refuse.

Jiang Yifeng shook his head and said with a smile, "I've already found someone to play Xiao Geng, someone even more suitable than Bao Qiang."

"Your fees are too high. Just a cameo role will suffice; I can't afford to have you as leads."

The actor playing Xiao Geng must have that kind of melancholic and dejected temperament, looking like a lecherous man who has the desire but not the courage.

No one is more suitable than Bai Ke right now.

The fourth season of "The King of Bathing" is going to be filmed, after the filming of "Lost in Thailand" wrapped up.

Jiang Yifeng just happened to see Zhang Xinyu's performance today and thought she was suitable for a role, so he casually asked her about it.

In addition to Zhang Xinyu, Jiang Yifeng will also invite actresses such as Aoi Sora and Matsumoto Shima to star in the film, maximizing its popularity.

Hearing Jiang Yifeng say that, Wang Baoqiang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good, a cameo role is no problem."
