352 Expedition

Qin Yu was not very familiar with Wu Jing before, and they only met twice in Yanjing.

Wu Jing and Zhou Xiaoou are childhood friends. They played football and fought in the alley together. They were both famous naughty children in the alley. The last one was caught to learn guitar, and the other was sent to a sports school to learn martial arts.

When the filming of "Struggle" was filmed, Wu Jing visited the crew. Zhou Xiaoou introduced him to everyone at a party. Qin Yu also took a few moves with him while drinking.

Later I learned that most of the traditional kung fu that Wu Jing also learned from his master was a performance-based traditional kung fu, and he was also exposed to free fighting for a while when he was in Xiangjiang. However, most of the films were performed according to the actions designed in advance by martial arts guidance, and most of them were fancy.

Wu Jing is a cheerful person and is good at making friends. Before Qin Yu came to Xiangjiang, he called him and asked if he was in Xiangjiang. After all, he had to stay for half a month, so maybe everyone could make an appointment to have a meal and drink together.

However, Qin Yu did not expect that on the first day he came to Xiangjiang, Wu Jing called to ask about his residence, and then came to greet Qin Yu in person after the show.

After learning that Qin Yu was in a hurry, the next day, he arranged for his assistant to send many daily items that he needed to live in Xiangjiang, including safflower oil, slag wine, quishi pills, Longjiao Powder, etc.

These things are the life experience summarized by Wu Jingxiangjiang's years of hard work, and they were not prepared by Qin Yu and Yang Siwei. This also made Qin Yu very grateful, so he planned to visit the set while the work was earlier today.

Qin Yu arranged for Yang Siwei to bring some snacks from Yanjing, and together with Wu Yanzu, he bought some cold drinks at a milk tea shop not far from Wu Jing and his crew.

"Hello, Brother Jing."

"hi, Jason." Wu Yanzu is still used to calling Wu Jing's English name.

"Qin Yu, you are here. Azu, thank you."

After receiving a call from Qin Yu, Wu Jing hurriedly came out of the crew. He was very excited to see Qin Yu and Wu Yanzu who came to visit the set.

"Brother Jing, I don't know how many people you crew have today, so I bought forty ice drinks. If there are any shortcomings, please forgive me."

"Enough, we only have more than 20 people today." Wu Jing greeted several staff members not far away. He looked at some people who didn't care much from afar. He saw that they were here to visit the set to send refreshments, so he came to welcome him enthusiastically.

"Just leave these to them, I'll take you to meet Luo Sheng." Wu Jing was used to the attitude of the staff. He turned around and explained to the assistant who followed him, took a few refreshments, and walked in with a few people.

The director of this drama by Wu Jing is Luo Shouyao. He is from a wealthy family and worth billions. He mainly has personal interests and hobbies for filming movies. Even his team borrowed from his friend Du Qifeng. So everyone calls him Luo Shouyao instead of Director Luo.

The filming venue of this drama is an indoor venue rectified from the warehouse. The light is very dark, and only the ceiling lights are used in the middle to illuminate a piece of 20 to 30 square meters.

"Are you shooting a boxing competition?" Qin Yu looked at Wu Jing with a little surprise.

"Well, the name of our play is "Black Fist", which refers to the Xiangjiang underground boxing competition."

"Haha, you won't be the one who was abused this time."

"What are you talking about? I am the male protagonist of this drama, professionally abused people."

In addition to returning the gifts in courtesy, Qin Yu also learned about the real situation of Wu Jing's development in Xiangjiang.

In recent days, Qin Yu was in contact with the crew of "Disciples", in addition to being able to feel their professional work attitude, he was left with the xenophobia that was hidden deep in his bones.

Qin Yu told Yang Siwei, who thought he was too sensitive.

In addition to filming with Qin Yu during this period, Yang Siwei was more in communication with some artists in the Xiangjiang entertainment industry. Instead, she was more popular in the Xiangjiang entertainment industry than Qin Yu and Zhang Jingchu.

The Xiangjiang entertainment industry is gradually shrinking, but the mainland entertainment industry is developing rapidly. These Xiangjiang artists see it. In addition, Liu Dehua, Wang Jing, Cheng Kexin and others have made huge profits from going north, and they are also interested. They are just holding their own identities and are not able to actively communicate with mainland agents.

Now Yang Siwei comes to negotiate under the name of Shiba Brokerage, which gives them some intention to cooperate. After all, Wang Jinghua's Shiba Brokerage Company has successfully managed the brokerage contracts of Liu Jialing, Liang Jiahui and others in the mainland. It is said that Liu Dehua is also in negotiations with Wang Jinghua.

Chinese people pay attention to a circle culture, and this culture is particularly valued in the entertainment industry. The entertainment industry itself is a big circle, and it is divided into Beijing circle, Shanghai circle, Northwest circle and Hong Kong and Taiwan circles according to different regions, personnel composition and capital attributes.

Wang Jinghua represents the Beijing circle, and belongs to the most capital, connections and power among several circles. Wang Jinghua is also at the core of the Beijing circle and is known as the number one agent of Chinese artists. These Xiangjiang artists are also coveted by the resources they have in their hands.

Both from Yanjing, Qin Yu belongs to the Beijing circle, while Wu Jing is different. Qin Yu has always been receiving resources in the Beijing circle and is also giving back to this circle. However, Wu Jing is following the path of the Hong Kong and Taiwan circles.

Wu Jing's debut cannot be separated from an important figure, that is, Yuan Heping, a famous martial arts director from Xiangjiang.

Yuan Heping and Zhang Xinyan jointly established Xiangjiang Jinhui Film Company. At first, they planned to make some money by making a movie, but due to the newly established company, they couldn't afford to pay too much money and couldn't hire big stars.

In the end, director Yuan Heping wanted to follow the old routine and go to the Yanjing Shichahai Sports School where Li Lianjie trained, hoping to find a second Li Lianjie and train a new martial arts star. In this way, he found Wu Jing, who was baby-faced but skilled.

The first film Yuan Heping and Wu Jing collaborated with him was "Kung Fu Boy Passing the Love Stage", and then he collaborated with two TV series "Tai Chi Grandmaster" and "Little Li Flying Knife", making Wu Jing a new generation of kung fu actors. Wu Jing also signed a contract with Jinhui Film Company and left Yanjing to come to Xiangjiang to work hard.

However, what Wu Jing did not expect was that the ending of the Hong Kong film and television industry was so fast, as if everyone lost interest in Hong Kong films overnight. Projects were reduced and capital shrank, and this period was hailed as the dark era of the Hong Kong film industry. When local artists in Xiangjiang were still lacking resources to fill their stomachs, Wu Jing from the mainland was in an increasingly difficult situation.

He played supporting roles in more than a dozen dramas, sometimes without even a single line.

Last time a few people drank together, Wu Jing said that when filming a scene in the back alley of "Shapolang", he was once depressed by Zhen Zaitan, the martial arts director of the play at that time.

The drama "Slaying the Wolf" originally had a lot of scenes. As the most loyal little brother around the villain boss, Wu Jing originally had a lot of lines. Later, Zhen Zaitan thought that Wu Jing was a bit stolen and suggested that part of it be deleted. Wu Jing just complained to his assistant, and the staff told Zhen Zaitan. That's why Zhen Zaitan gave him a lesson during filming, letting him understand that this is Xiangjiang.

Zhen Zaidan's approach is a conspiracy. First of all, he found the director with a more "kind intention" and suggested that the ending scene where Wu Jing was directly shot by the headshot as soon as he came up, adding some scenes to Wu Jing, giving him a real fight scene, and showing the skills of the two.

The martial arts guide of this drama is Zhen Zaitan. According to his movement design, in the back alley, Wu Jing used a dagger, while Zhen Zaitan used a short stick. The props used for filming were also abandoned by him, thinking that the two of them were too big and easily broken and unreal.

As the saying goes, one inch long and one inch strong, there is a long shot of dozens of seconds, which has been shot for 4 times in total. In this long shot, the stick in Zhen Zaidan's hand has to be hit continuously, while Wu Jing needs to use his arm to block it. In the middle, because Zhen Zaidan broke the stick too hard, he changed to another stick to reshoot it. After filming this scene, a total of 4 sticks were broken, and Wu Jing's hand was swollen by the stick, and he couldn't carry anything the next day.

Although Wu Jing was exposed, he did not lose his gains. This several-minute battle in the back alley has become one of the most classic scenes in this drama. It was this scene that made Luo Shouyao fall in love with this fierce mainland actor and gave him the opportunity to be the protagonist this time.
