Huayu: Starting with Hijacking from "The Story of a Noble Family"

Chapter 92, "Those Years," wrapped filming; 17th birthday.

"You even practiced Sanda (Chinese kickboxing)!"

Liu Yifei looked at Xu Heng with surprise, and couldn't help but blush.

She had always known that Xu Heng had a great physique, but when Xu Heng was shirtless, revealing his well-defined eight-pack abs, she realized that Xu's physique was actually this good and this shapely!

Xu Heng had just finished exercising and hadn't wiped away her sweat yet, so she felt a strong masculine aura coming towards her!

If there weren't other people around, she would have liked to just reach out and pinch it!

Of course, this is only because of Xu. If it were anyone else, she would at most take a sneaky glance, but she would never openly admire them like this, much less get so close.

Today is August 23rd. This movie has been filming for over 50 days and is almost finished. Now there are only two scenes left to film.

One scene shows the male protagonist organizing a free fighting competition at school to prove his masculinity and gain the female protagonist's admiration. He even invites the female protagonist to watch the competition, but she thinks it's childish.

Xu Heng was changed to a male protagonist who, in order to prove his masculinity, went to a Sanda gym outside the school to learn Sanda and even asked the coach to help him register for amateur competitions.

The result was the same; the female lead, who came to watch his match, thought he was childish, and this was the scene being filmed at that moment.

The other scene is naturally the most classic wedding scene at the end, which Xu planned to film on the last day, so that they could also hold a wrap party at the same time.

It's August now, and the weather is extremely hot. Even ordinary Sanda gyms of this era don't have air conditioning.

Besides, with such a great physique, it would be a shame not to use it as a selling point, and he wouldn't mind showing it off occasionally.

Fortunately, apart from the final wedding scene, all of Shu Chang's scenes have been filmed, so she didn't come to the set today.

Otherwise, seeing the two of them like this now, I'd probably feel like I'm superfluous again!

"It's just casual practice. It's always good to have more skills, and I don't need to be an expert in any of them."

As Xu Heng spoke, his expression was far from smug.

"Hmph!"

Liu Yifei's expression turned disdainful again; how could she not know that Xu was lying to her?

She now firmly believes that Xu is a true martial arts expert!

"Is the casting of Little Dragon Girl okay?"

Xu Heng changed the subject.

At this moment, the people around them were all far away. Although some people were secretly observing them, they dared not come over to disturb them, nor could they hear what they were saying.

He remembered that in his previous life, Zhang Dahuzi's novel "The Return of the Condor Heroes" did indeed officially announce that Zhou Xun would play the role of Xiaolongnu.

But Zhou Xun later "voluntarily" withdrew, saying she had been tricked!

"It should be fine, right? —"

Liu Yifei whispered.

She hadn't hidden this from Xu Heng before, let alone now.

But then she looked up at Xu Heng, her expression becoming somewhat awkward—

"Don't you think this is a bit inappropriate? —"

"How could that be? I'm not that old-fashioned!"

Xu Heng said casually.

Not to mention that the business world is like a battlefield, the entertainment industry's bottom line is already not high.

As long as you don't intentionally harm others or break the law, the rest is up to your own abilities.

If you don't do it, someone else will.

Liu Yifei pursed her lips. If she could, she definitely wouldn't want things to be this way, but it was impossible for everything to go her way.

This kind of thing is also very common in the entertainment industry; many people do it.

Fortunately, she knew that Xu really didn't care, otherwise she probably would have felt inferior in front of Xu again.

She knew very well that everything Xu had now was truly 100% due to his own ability and talent!

"But you'd better be prepared, it won't be easy to portray Little Dragon Girl well. And this time it's still being filmed on location, so it will definitely be much harder than when we filmed 'Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils.' I estimate we'll need to do some martial arts training beforehand!"

Xu Heng continued.

"I know, but I'm confident I'll be fine!"

Liu Yifei looked determined.

She has never been afraid of hardship, especially now that Xu Heng has become even more outstanding.

As a good friend, she certainly couldn't fall behind, or at least not fall too far behind!

They chatted for a while longer until Liu Xiaoli returned with lunch, at which point they stopped. Liu Yifei didn't ask Xu Hengyang about the casting process.

Since Xu has said so, she believes that as long as she can get the role of Little Dragon Girl, Xu will definitely be able to get the role of Yang Guo!

The scenes depicting learning Sanda (Chinese kickboxing) and participating in amateur competitions took two days to film, and the final scene of the movie began filming on August 25th.

Today is also Liu Yifei's 17th birthday, so the wrap party later can also be Liu Yifei's birthday party.

As for why it's such a coincidence, I don't know.

Early in the morning, the entire crew arrived at the booked hotel to begin preparations for filming.

Xu Heng watched from the side, occasionally offering pointers.

Once everything was ready, she went to get her makeup and styling done, just like the other actors.

About twenty minutes later, Xu finished her makeup and styling, and most of the other actors were also ready, except for the actress playing the lead and the actor playing the groom.

Today we're filming a wedding scene, so the female lead definitely needs to dress up carefully.

As for the groom, he was played by Sun Haidong.

He was the oldest in Xu Heng's dormitory, six years older than Liu Yifei, and had a rather honest appearance, making him very suitable for the role.

Then Xu Heng began to explain the play, and the hotel started serving the dishes.

These are just ordinary dishes; the real feast is yet to come, otherwise it will get cold.

After explaining the play, we filmed a group of classmates eating a meal and reminiscing about how they used to chase after the female lead together.

After filming the scene, the female lead, with her makeup and styling done, came to the lobby.

Everyone present was immediately stunned when they saw Liu Yifei dressed in a pure white wedding gown.

After realizing what was happening, some people immediately took out their phones and started taking pictures, including some hotel staff.

Liu Xiaoli followed behind her daughter. Although she knew it was just a movie shoot, she couldn't help but feel a little complicated, as if her daughter was really getting married!

Xu Heng began directing the female lead and the groom.

Looking at Xu who had come to her, Liu Yifei should not be too shy or too nervous.

She was trying her best to hide it, but she knew Xu Heng would definitely be able to see through it.

The next scene is simple: the bride and groom make their entrance and walk together down a long corridor to the stage.

This process is basically a must for weddings, and the photo shoot went very smoothly.

But it certainly won't be like in reality where you walk the whole way in one go; instead, you'll be walking and stopping.

In addition to close-ups of the bride and groom's expressions, close-ups of other people, especially the groom, were also filmed. In short, it was very different from a real wedding.

Normally, the bride would hold the groom's arm, but Sun Haidong certainly wouldn't dare let Liu Yifei hold his arm, so Liu Yifei held the flowers with both hands.

After filming this scene, Xu Heng continued to explain the scene to the actors, as the real highlight scene was about to be filmed.

The scene depicts the classmates taking a group photo with the bride and groom after the wedding. One classmate jokingly suggests that since the red envelopes given today are quite large, they want to kiss the bride.

In the original movie, the groom asked the bride, and the bride agreed. In this version, the groom directly agreed.

Then the groom made that request: he could kiss the bride, but he had to kiss her the same way he kissed him first.

As soon as he finished speaking, while the others were still hesitating, the male protagonist rushed up and hugged and kissed him without hesitation, startling everyone!

The scene was filmed smoothly as well. Xu Heng definitely wouldn't actually kiss her, but the shocked expressions of the female lead and the others were filmed several times.

After filming was finished, it was time for the final kissing scene between the male and female leads in the original movie. Xu Heng began to give Liu Yifei private instructions on the scene.

The kissing scene was definitely changed as well; it was changed so that the male lead slowly walked towards the female lead.

Meanwhile, the female lead first smiled politely, then her smile gradually faded and she became serious.

She smiled again, her eyes filled with encouragement and expectation.

Finally, you have to laugh out loud, but you also have to express a feeling of regret and relief.

This time, Hsu Heng spoke to Liu Yifei for about ten minutes and even gave a demonstration himself.

The expressions in this scene could actually have been filmed separately, but Liu Yifei insisted on filming them together, at least to try it out first.

Liu Yifei had already practiced countless times at home!

So after only a few takes, the scene was over, and applause immediately broke out on set.

This is not only because once this scene is over, it means the entire film can be completely finished.

Also because Liu Yifei's performance just now was truly outstanding!

After watching the video, Xu Heng thought it was absolutely perfect!

"Not bad, it seems your acting skills have indeed improved a lot compared to before!"

Xu Heng turned his head and looked at Liu Yifei, who had come to his side to watch the video with him, and praised her generously.

"That's all because you're such a good teacher!"

Liu Yifei said "politely," but her expression was quite smug.

This "humble" personality is something she learned from her good "teacher," Xu Heng!

"Actually, I originally wanted to arrange a kissing scene here, and also find another female star to act in it."

Xu Heng is courting death again.

"Then why didn't you arrange it that way?"

Liu Yifei didn't care at all; she knew that if Xu Heng really wanted to do this, he would have done it long ago.

Just as Xu Heng said, there aren't many female celebrities in the entertainment industry who could refuse him if he wanted to!

"Because I feel that other female celebrities can't achieve the same effect as you."

Xu Heng praised him secretly once again.

Understanding his meaning, Liu Yifei smiled again, her expression even more smug.

"You know that much is good!"

With that, she left the hall to change her clothes, as she was going to have a banquet later.

Today is her birthday, so the wrap party is also her birthday party.

Besides, her mother was there, so she couldn't say too much to Xu Heng.

Soon after, the wrap party began, and the entire crew celebrated Liu Yifei's birthday together. Xu Heng even prepared a cake with a full 17 layers.

With so many people in the crew, the cake couldn't be too small if everyone got a piece.
