Looking at his current attributes and gains, Wu Wei felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction.

In less than a month, he has made so much progress, he is much stronger than when he was first reborn!

"This is such a great deal of freebies!"

Wu Wei was overjoyed.

There's still about a month until filming wraps up. How much will I have grown by then?

He was really looking forward to it!

Wu Wei closed the system interface with a satisfied smile, turned around and returned to the stunt team to begin preparing for the evening's filming.

The first scene we filmed tonight was the first time Liu Yifei, who plays Golden Swallow, made her move, throwing two darts that accurately struck two enemies in the throat.

This shot sounds simple, but it's actually very difficult to film.

With just one movement, the film must not only showcase Golden Swallow's superb martial arts skills but also reveal her proud and persevering character, while also capturing both power and beauty.

This first move allowed her to firmly establish her persona, leaving the audience with the image of a chivalrous woman skilled in using hidden weapons.

Therefore, this shot is particularly important.

It could even be said to be the most important shot Liu Yifei filmed in Group B.

Sun Lin, the director of Group B, and Shu Jian, the martial arts choreographer, both attached great importance to this.

However, the filming did not go smoothly.

"Click!"

Sun Lin sat behind the monitor, frowning. "Yifei, your movements are too soft. Throw the darts with more force, make your expression colder, and your eyes more determined!"

"Okay, director."

Liu Yifei nodded and walked back to the starting position.

This time she increased the force of her movements, and her expression and eyes were also adjusted very well.

However, Sun Lin still frowned, somewhat dissatisfied.

After thinking about it, she realized that the problem wasn't with Liu Yifei's performance, but rather with the somewhat mediocre design of the movement.

It lacked the kind of immediate impact that would immediately catch the audience's eye, resulting in less than stunning footage.

She immediately called over the martial arts instructor, Shu Jian.

After the two discussed it in hushed tones for a few minutes, Shu Jian nodded and then led Liu Yifei to an open space to practice the new moves.

A dozen minutes later, the two returned to the scene.

Filming continues.

This time, Liu Yifei changed her move to running and shooting two darts at the same time, which was much better than before.

But Sun Lin was still not satisfied.

Shu Jian immediately came up with a new move and had Liu Yifei demonstrate it to Sun Lin on the spot, but it still didn't achieve the feeling that Sun Lin was looking for.

……

Shu Jian thought of several more ideas, but Sun Lin rejected them all.

Filming came to a standstill, and the atmosphere on set gradually became somewhat heavy.

Liu Yifei, carrying a heavy pipa, threw darts, changing her movements again and again.

Even though she was in good physical condition and had fever-reducing patches to cool her down, she was still panting heavily from exhaustion, and her makeup was ruined by sweat.

Wu Wei stood to the side, watching Shu Jian stroke his chin, deep in thought, his gaze falling on Liu Yifei's face opposite him.

Liu Yifei felt his gaze and turned to look at him.

Their eyes met.

At that moment, a picture suddenly flashed through his mind.

He remembered!

Wu Wei had seen the movie "The Forbidden Kingdom" in his previous life, but due to the long time that had passed, he could hardly remember it.

But now, he remembered that scene—

After Liu Yifei pulled two darts from the headstock of the pipa behind her, she immediately did a beautiful 360-degree spin, using the acceleration of her body rotation to forcefully shoot the darts out of her hand.

This move is both logical and stylish, and the resulting photo is stunning.

Wu Wei had no idea how this move was designed in his previous life.

Was it Shu Jian's idea today, or was it designed by Yuan Heping, the Eighth Master, later...?

In short, this action has not yet been taken.

Moreover, as a reborn individual, he felt that the original version of this action actually had room for improvement and optimization.

After all, he possesses an aesthetic that transcends this era, and I've also seen many of the action scenes that Master Eight directed after "The Forbidden Kingdom".

He can extract the essence and make slight modifications to the original movements, and he can design a movement for Liu Yifei that surpasses the original!

Thinking about this, he could already picture Liu Yifei making this gesture in his mind.

For a moment, Wu Wei couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement.

He immediately walked up to Sun Lin and said to her, "Director, I have an idea, can I give it a try?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the filming location fell silent.

The stuntmen and staff members standing nearby all looked at him with doubt and skepticism.

"Wu Wei, what nonsense are you spouting? Come here right now!"

Seeing this, Ni Haifeng, who was closest to Wu Wei, changed his expression, immediately scolded him, and then quickly walked over to try to pull him away.

The director is already in a bad mood, so wouldn't it be pointless for you to say something like that?

Moreover, martial arts instruction is the job of team leader Shu Jian. Even if you, as a martial arts performer, have ideas, you should talk to him first, instead of going directly to the director.

Isn't this disrespectful?

If I offend the boss, how am I supposed to get along in the group from now on?

Several staff members who usually disliked Wu Wei immediately began to whisper and mock him:

"Who does he think he is? Does knowing a little martial arts make him a martial arts instructor?"

"That's hilarious. They've been doing this for so many years and they still can't figure it out, what could he possibly do?"

"He just wanted to show off and impress Liu Yifei."

"Heh, this guy harasses Liu Yifei every day, I've been fed up with it for a long time!"

……

Standing on the sidelines of the film set, Liu Xiaoli listened to these words and couldn't help but curl a gloating smile into her lips.

It's been several days, and I've finally waited for you to make a mistake, and I've finally waited for you to embarrass yourself!

My dear daughter, open your eyes wide and take a good look!

……

Wu Wei immediately realized he had acted impulsively as soon as he spoke.

He was so excited at the time that the idea flashed through his mind, and he just went up and said it without considering whether it was appropriate.

As a reborn person, this is really not right.

He was about to say something to make amends when a soft yet firm female voice rang out from the crowd:

"Director, let him give it a try!"
