Huayu: Starting from an Unemployed Male Model

Wei Jun and Li Lin both got their roles and then rushed back to Hengdian to continue their busy filming schedule.

Hengdian.

"I, Yan Xun, am back. I've changed. Have you changed?" Wei Jun, mounted on his horse, sized up Yan Bei with a fierce look in his eyes.

"Cut! That's a wrap. Take a 15-minute break. Set crew, get the set set up." The director shouted through a megaphone.

"It's set up."

OK.

The next part of the story is that Yan Xun sends invitations to various tribes in Yanbei, inviting them to serve him. However, the tribal leaders are afraid of retaliation from the Wei army, so they not only dare not come to help, but also openly hold a whole-cow feast in their tribes.

In order to win over the various tribes, Yan Xun decided to personally take the lead and bravely storm the Huotu tribe to establish his authority.

Wei Jun, with his long hair tied in a small braid, wearing an indigo blue battle suit with white detailed prints, sat in front of the makeup table, watching the makeup artist do his makeup.

"This eyeshadow, tsk tsk, Yan Xun looks like he's been turned into a smoky man." After the Nine Nether Platform incident, to distinguish between his before and after transformation, in addition to changes in clothing, personality, and lines, there is also the makeup.

I needed to apply eyeshadow to my eyelashes, and also apply contouring to make my face look more sculpted and slimmer. Luckily…

"Luckily, Jun-ge, your features are well-proportioned and three-dimensional, so we can use less contouring." The makeup artist had never felt so relaxed.

In the past, when she did makeup for other male actors, she had to use so many different kinds of cosmetics to cover up their dark circles, acne, large pores, blemishes and other skin problems. By the end of the day, she was exhausted.

"By the way, Jun-ge, do you usually take care of your skin? Can you teach us how to keep our skin moisturized and fair?" The makeup artist looked envious.

"Exercise regularly, sweat more, replenish fluids promptly, and get plenty of sleep." Wei Jun gulped down plain water through a straw.

The makeup artist knew that Wei Jun was the curliest person on set, and that he trained constantly, doing weighted running, squats, push-ups, and so on...

Most importantly, Wei Jun was shirtless when he trained. Every time he trained, the makeup team, logistics team, costume team, and even the actresses would come out to watch him train.

Sometimes, when he gets into the mood and there are no weights available, Wei Jun will randomly pick someone to act as his weight, carrying them while running or squatting...

This benefit lasted for a period of time before being discontinued due to "force majeure".

The men were unhappy, and Li Qin and Zhao Liying were even more unhappy.

"Not only does Jun-ge have great skin, but Lin-jie's skin is also pretty good," the makeup artist who was doing Li Lin's makeup said, taking the opportunity to ask her, "Lin-jie, what skincare products do you usually use?"

Li Qin felt a pang of panic, but maintained a calm demeanor on the surface: "I'll send you a link later."

"Sister Lin sent it to me too." X3

After getting his makeup done, Wei Jun went to meet up with the director of Group A, while Li Lin went to film with other groups.

"Wei Jun, stand in front of the curtain in a moment. When the curtain opens, go in."

"Your expression must be serious and cold, and your demeanor fierce. This scene is about you bravely storming the tribe to establish your authority and become the new king."

The director gave instructions.

"Okay." Wei Jun quickly adjusted his expression, his face immediately turning cold, and he activated the B-side of [Twin Thoughts], his sinister and vicious aura concealed.

"All departments, prepare."

"Action".

The tent flaps were pulled open from both sides, and the lights at the entrance were illuminating the sun lamps. Wei Jun appeared outside with a cold expression.

Wei Jun led five extras into the tent and walked step by step toward the tribal chief.

The noisy tent fell silent instantly as the actors playing the tribal chief and his men looked over.

"Who are you people?" the leader shouted angrily as he walked towards Wei Jun. "I'm asking you a question, are you all deaf...?"

Before the leader could finish speaking, Wei Jun drew his short sword and plunged it into the leader's shoulder, forcing him toward the main table.

"Sit down," Wei Jun said, his face cold and stern, his eyes indifferent, and a sinister aura emanating from him.

After the tribal chief's men sat down, Wei Jun slammed the chief's head onto the table, drew his dagger, and plunged it into the tabletop.

"Let's get to know each other."

"I am Yan Xun, your new king."

......

"Click, perfect."

After filming wrapped, Wei Jun helped the actor who played the leader up and patted his trembling body: "Dude, you did a good job."

The leader actor gave a wry smile: "Actually, I was scared by you. I was really afraid you would kill me just now."

"We were also frightened by your eyes," the extras chimed in one after another.

Wei Jun pretended to be stupid and laughed it off. The dagger was fake, the blood was fake, but the fierce look in the man's eyes was real.

Dou Xiao's iconic scene in his previous life earned him countless fans, but Wei Jun's version is even better.

If, during the promotional period for the drama, it were edited into a short video and accompanied by the Fuheishen March, it would be incredibly sexy.

......

"A pair of threes, sorry, I won again." Wei Jun laughed heartily after playing his last pair of cards, and then stuck a long strip of paper on Zhao Liying's forehead.

When filming, the longest time is not spent shooting a lot of footage, but waiting for the set to be set up or for location changes.

Sometimes we have to wait for more than an hour for a scene, and it's inevitable to get bored during that time.

Lin Gengxin suggested playing Dou Dizhu (a popular Chinese card game), but after playing two rounds, he found it unexciting, as winning or losing was the same, and he couldn't muster any enthusiasm for it.

Wei Jun proposed that the loser should be punished, such as having a piece of paper stuck on the loser's face.

Zhao Liying raised her hands and feet in approval. She was lucky; she had good cards in the first two rounds and won no matter what she played, making her laugh heartily.

As a result of the punishment, Zhao Liying lost two games in a row; in one game she was the landlord, and in the other game Wei Jun was the landlord.

"Let's go again, I refuse to believe I'll lose." Zhao Liying stared fiercely at Wei Jun shuffling the cards.

Wei Jun had specifically learned how to shuffle cards; he had learned it from a director who had lost an index finger when he was working before. However, he only knew one method: shuffling the necessary cards in front of him.

With this skill, he always got good cards, and his "friends" all thought he was just lucky.

Now, when I play with Zhao Liying and Lin Gengxin, it's really just playing. There's no cheating. We get our cards by luck and win by skill.

In the past, there were special reasons for cheating, but now it's all about friends having fun, so you can't resort to any means to show off, otherwise there's no fun in it.

However, Zhao Liying's skill level is really not that great. She plays her cards hastily, always trying to crush her opponent without leaving any room for maneuver.

Lin Gengxin is different; he plays relatively steadily, passing when he can, but he tends to give up when he gets a bad hand.

"I bombed, Liying, are you feeling your head buzzing right now?" In this round, Zhao Liying took the landlord role, but after playing a few rounds of cards, she was bombed by Wei Jun's two Jokers.

Zhao Liying's face darkened, while Lin Gengxin covered his mouth and laughed beside her.

"Airplane, do you want it or not? If not, I'm about to submit the order." Wei Jun threw the cards onto the simple wooden table.

"I'm not playing anymore, it's no fun." Zhao Liying stood up and threw all the cards in her hand onto the wooden table.

"No, you might not lose. Lin Gou has only played a few cards."

"Yes, I'm dealt a terrible hand."

The two tried to persuade her to play, but she refused, so they didn't have many chances to stick notes all over her face.

"I said I'm not playing anymore, and I mean it." Zhao Liying crossed her arms and sat down heavily, the small stool under her bottom creaking under the weight.

"Okay," Wei Jun sighed, "You have no talent for playing cards. Play less in the future. I see you always lose when you play with Teacher He and Xie Na."

Lin Gengxin interjected, "Perhaps her talent lies in her words."

"I think your talent is all in your mouth," Zhao Liying retorted, then pointed at Wei Jun, "Sing a song to cheer me up."

What do you want to hear?

"casual."

Wei Jun sang a song casually, and then sang her favorite song, "Girl".

"Wei Jun, can you write songs?" Zhao Liying took out some sunflower seeds from her pocket and ate them while listening to music.

"I guess so." Copying songs counts too.

"Then write me a song sometime." Zhao Liying tilted her head and looked at Wei Jun.

"Are you usually this shameless?"
