After confirming that there were no problems with Jiang Feng, Zhang Yimou had Wang Hui, the production coordinator, take Jiang Feng to sign the contract.

To Jiang Feng's surprise, after seven days on set, his after-tax salary was 10,000 yuan.

He only received 20,000 yuan for filming "Xiao Shiyi Lang" which took him a month or so, while his salary for "Wind and Cloud" was 50,000 yuan.

In addition, he also had to cooperate with the crew's various promotional activities in the later stages, ensuring that he was available whenever needed.

Now he only needs to stay on the set of "Hero" for seven days to earn 10,000 yuan.

As expected of a big production team, they really know how to spend lavishly.

However, all of this is conditional: Jiang Feng must learn marksmanship within a week and reach a level that satisfies Zhang Yimou.

If he doesn't meet the requirements, Jiang Feng will only receive a hardship fee of three thousand yuan.

Jiang Feng was quite confident about this.

He only needs to use his incredible skill in exploiting others to easily copy the marksmanship of a shooting instructor.

"Brother, congratulations! You've already won Director Zhang's favor right after we met."

When Jiang Feng left, Zhang Jin saw him off.

"I also want to thank you, Brother Jin. Without you, I wouldn't have had such a great opportunity."

Jiang Feng has not forgotten Zhang Jin, the "matchmaker".

"I only invited you to visit the set; I didn't help you at all. You got everything yourself."

Zhang Jin said happily, "In the next few days, my brother and I will be able to work together again. Haha, just thinking about it makes me happy."

"Me too, Zhang Dawu pointed out. I'm counting on you to protect me in the 'Hero' crew."

"No problem, no problem."

Zhang Jin's thoughts were the same as Jiang Qinqin's at this moment: he was protecting Jiang Feng now, but before long, it would probably be Jiang Feng protecting him.

……

On the way back, Jiang Qinqin chattered incessantly.

"Jiang Feng, you're amazing. You became sworn brothers with director Zhang Yimou after just one meeting and even became Donnie Yen's stunt double."

"But those words you used to compliment Director Zhang sound so familiar... Didn't you say the same thing to me back then?"

"Hmph, you scheming boy. I thought you were innocent, but it turns out I was the innocent one. You, a college student, are even more cunning than me."

"Jiang Feng, are you even listening to me?"

Jiang Qinqin patted Jiang Feng, who was leaning back in the back seat with his eyes closed, as if resting.

"Okay, go ahead, I'm listening."

Jiang Feng closed his eyes and responded weakly.

He was really tired by the end of the day.

Jiang Qinqin glanced at the driver who was focused on driving, then leaned close to Jiang Feng's ear and whispered something.

"I really have to thank you for today. If it weren't for you, Director Zhang would never have noticed me, let alone praised my acting skills."

"Since you've been so kind to me, I'll give you a good 'lucky treat' tonight."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Feng immediately opened his eyes, sat up straight, and said in a voice only the two of them could hear:

"If you're going to talk about this, I'm not sleepy anymore. Tell me more about Bodah."

Jiang Qinqin blushed and spoke in a barely audible voice:

"Didn't you say last time you wanted to try the splits in the air...?"

……

To better understand his character, Jiang Feng developed the habit of writing a diary from the perspective of the character.

The following morning, Jiang Feng wrote the following in his "Sword Morning Diary"—

"Last night at midnight, while Nie Feng was fast asleep, Second Dream sneaked into my room and fought me for three hundred rounds. He even used his ultimate move, the 'Heavenly Splits,' which Jian Chen was no match for. I was forced to awaken my new identity in 'Heroes'—Chang Kong. After several rounds, Second Dream was finally defeated by Chang Kong's silver spear and fled in panic, leaning against the wall as he left."

……

The news that Jiang Feng was going to be Donnie Yen's stunt double in the film "Hero" quickly spread throughout the entire "Storm Riders" crew.

Zhao Wenzhuo, He Rundong, Jiang Zuping, and Tao Hong were all stunned and offered their congratulations to Jiang Feng.

They were all deeply moved, marveling at how wondrous life's encounters can be.

Just two days ago, when they were talking about "Hero", they said that not everyone is so lucky to have the opportunity to participate in such a blockbuster.

Jiang Feng comforted them, saying that filming TV dramas was also a good thing and that they shouldn't be discouraged, giving them a pep talk.

Zhao Wenzhuo and He Rundong thought to themselves, "If even a minor supporting character like Jiang Feng is so optimistic, how can our leading man be so self-pitying and complain about everything?"

However, in the blink of an eye, Jiang Feng managed to infiltrate the "Hero" film crew.

It's like when you're in school, the top student always says they didn't do well on a test, but when the results come out, damn it, they're number one.

Isn't that infuriating?

Xu Jinliang even granted Jiang Feng a seven-day leave, telling him to focus on "Hero" first, and not to worry about his scenes here, as they could be filmed a few days later.

Zhao Wenzhuo and He Rundong were extremely envious; even they, the two male leads, didn't receive this special treatment.

Jiang Feng bid farewell to the crew of "Storm Riders" and arrived at the crew of "Heroes" with his luggage.

Because he joined the crew at the last minute and only had a week, the production team didn't prepare a room for him, so he had to stay at Zhang Jin's house.

Zhang Jin's room only had a single bed, so Jiang Feng had no choice but to sleep on the floor.

"Brother, how could I let you sleep on the floor? Why don't you sleep on the bed and I'll sleep on the floor?" Zhang Jin said very generously.

"That won't do. I can't steal the show."

Jiang Feng firmly disagreed.

"How about... we squeeze in?" Zhang Jin said. "This bed should be able to fit two people."

"That works too."

So Jiang Feng and Zhang Jin slept together on the single bed. It was big enough, but a bit cramped.

While sleeping that night, Jiang Feng dreamed of Jiang Qinqin doing the splits in the air.

The next morning, Zhang Jin felt heavy on his body, as if something was pressing down on him.

When he opened his eyes, he saw that Jiang Feng had one leg on top of him and his hand was on his chest.

Zhang Jin's expression changed, and he jumped off the bed, shaking Jiang Feng awake.

"Jiang Feng, Jiang Feng, wake up!"

Jiang Feng woke up, rubbing his sleepy eyes.

"What's wrong, Jin-ge? Why are you up so early?"

Zhang Jin shuddered and got goosebumps when he recalled how Jiang Feng had been touching him inappropriately on the set of "Xiao Shiyi Lang".

"Jiang Feng, you don't actually have a problem with your orientation, do you?"

"Get lost, I'm a rock-solid straight man, okay? Straighter than a steel pipe, even straighter than a steel pipe."

Jiang Feng was wide awake.

Zhang Jin asked suspiciously, "Then why are you so restless when you sleep, hugging and cuddling me?"

"I……"

Jiang Feng was speechless. He couldn't very well say that he had a beautiful dream about spring last night and mistook him for Jiang Qinqin, could he?

"Furthermore, you often touch men inappropriately. Me, Yang Junyi, Wu Qilong, Yu Bo—which one of them hasn't been taken advantage of by you?"

Zhang Jin got more and more excited as he spoke, "That day I even saw you secretly touch Director Zhang. You could do that to an old man like that, you must be really hungry."

Jiang Feng: "..."

Damn, I was just taking advantage of the situation, okay?
