Chapter 84 Big Brother Arrived (End of Volume)

  After two days of high-intensity filming, He Mu finally had some downtime. Coincidentally, Tang Ren sent a message that "The Legend of Zhen Huan" was about to start filming in Hengdian and asked He Mu to attend the press conference if he had time.

  He Muyi flew to Hengdian without hesitation, and at this time Liu Shishi had already arrived. Shishi was dressed in casual attire, looking lovely and charming. She deliberately waited for He Muyi at the entrance of the film city, and then the two went to the press conference together.

  Four stories, eight male and female protagonists, plus several supporting characters, adding up to more than a dozen well-known actors gathered at the Tang Ren Hotel to answer questions from the media.

  The consistent style of Tang Ren Theater is to pair handsome guys with beautiful girls, and gather a group of stars. In addition to the already well-known actors Wu Qilong, Fan Wenfang, Chen Xiaodong, Pan Yueming, and Sun Li, there are also new forces such as He Mu, Lin Jiayu, Liu Shishi, and Cao Xiweng.

  As "The Young Warriors" was broadcast on local stations in provinces such as Shanghai and Zhejiang, He Mu's popularity and influence gradually spread. His portrayal of Yang Qilang received unanimous recognition from the audience, with his lively, brave and clever image deeply ingrained in people's minds. More and more people began to recognize He Mu, a new face in the industry.

  In addition to the already completed "Flight Attendant" and the currently hot Hong Kong action film "Men's Nature", He Mu's exposure rate has increased a lot. Among several new actors, he is undoubtedly the most eye-catching one and also the one asked by reporters the most. Even Wu Qilong and Fan Wenfang, who have been relatively low-key in their careers recently, were compared to him. The media is very practical, whoever is popular, they will give more space to that person.

  Although he was new to the media, He Mu still knew his place and learned a lot from Da Tang about how to deal with the media and artists. He selectively absorbed what he thought was useful and found it to be quite effective. When facing reporters' questions, he was gracious and composed. When reporters tried to steer him towards "Male Essence" or other unrelated topics, he would humorously guide them back on track, at which point Director Li Guoli, the film's producer, would smile in satisfaction.

  After the press conference ended, most of the actors left, only a few actors from the "Lian Cheng" unit returned to Xiaobailou to prepare for tomorrow's filming.

  He Mu went to Chang Dabao's house for a drink before leaving. He always visits this group leader whenever he has time in Hengdian. Recently, Bao Ge has been doing well, playing small roles with names in several TV dramas. He Mu joked, "It seems that Bao Ge is going to formally enter the entertainment industry, and we young people will have more pressure in the future."

  It was a joke, and He Mu didn't expect it to have such an impact on Chang Dabao. Looking at his former junior who used to play minor roles under him now becoming a popular star, Chang Dabao couldn't help but feel envious. After more than ten years as an extra and seven or eight years as a group leader, with some savings and improved living conditions, Chang Dabao's heart became restless - was he destined to be just an extra for the rest of his life? He Mu's joke made Chang Dabao make up his mind: he couldn't stay like this forever!

  ——————

  After returning to Hong Kong from Hengdian, Ho Muk followed the crew all the time. When he had scenes to shoot, he would act; when he didn't have scenes, he would watch how others acted and how the director directed. This was also a kind of fun for him. Occasionally, he would even guest-direct action scenes. Li Zhongzhi, the martial arts director, thought that Ho Muk's Bajiquan provided him with many new ideas, as his movements were concise yet full of explosive power, making the actions he designed rich and varied with greater visual impact.

  Li Zhongzhi repays Li with peaches and is more careful when designing action scenes for He Mu, and the acting part also increases slightly.

  Entering mid-December, the film had almost completed half of its shooting. He Mu welcomed his fourth most important scene, which was not a martial arts scene but a literary scene. His opponent in this scene was Long Taizi Fang Zuming.

  On a school bus, Wei Jinghao (played by Fang Zuming) and a group of primary school students are hijacked by Tian Yangsheng (played by Wu Jing) and his gang, who have planted a timed bomb on the bus, guarded by Tian Yangsheng's brother Tian Yangyi (played by He Mu).

  On the car, Tian Yangyi and Wei Jinghao had a conversation. The two talked about Wei Jinghao's older brother. Tian Yangyi admitted that he was the one who killed Wei Jinghao's undercover older brother, but did not let him suffer, just one shot. From his words, you can feel the helplessness of killing Wei Jinghao's older brother back then.

  Yi Ze Lai got off the school bus, but Wei Jing Hao saved the students and found another kid on the bus with a timed bomb. When he rushed onto the bus, however, he discovered that the timed bomb hadn't exploded.

  It can be seen from here that Tian Yangyi's good conscience has not been extinguished, but limited to the script, Tian Yangyi has not been written too much, after all, there are too many characters, three main characters and a big villain, he is just a secondary role, only a brief appearance, He Mu's performance space is very small, so He Mu must establish Tian Yangyi in the limited plot, limited lines through his own performance, making him not so thin.

  To make his emotions more convincing, He Mu imagined that Fang Zuoming's elder brother had been a sworn brother who had gone through thick and thin with him, even taking a bullet for him. However, one day he discovered that this brother was actually an undercover police officer. At that time, Da Ge Tian Yang let him take care of the mole himself. He gritted his teeth and shot this former brother, ending his life with one bullet, sparing him from much suffering and pain.

  Thinking of these things, He Mu's emotions would be just right.

  Although Tian Yangyi's face remained calm and extremely cold, his eyes could vaguely reveal the turmoil in his heart. At this time, the kindness in his heart was awakened by Wei Jinghao's roar. He let go of a car full of children, tampered with the timed bomb, but still coolly sealed the children's mouths with tape.

  "Cut!" The director suddenly shouted, and He Mu thought he had done something wrong. Unexpectedly, the director hesitated for a moment, then told Fang Zuming to make his emotions more intense and his expressions richer. Then he encouraged He Mu with a sentence, "You're doing well."

  He Mu, who received praise, was met with a cold face by the director. At this time, he was still immersed in the world of Tian Yangyi.

  The acting skills of Xiao Fang's house are indeed poor, he said that he actually prefers music, but under the pressure of his old father, he took the path of performance. In fact, he also knows that he is not talented in this aspect and will not fight, but there is no way, his old man is too powerful. When he complained about his father, He Mu Wu surprised them with a word, that was Cheng Long Ge, the son complaining about his father, they had nothing to say, how dare these small fish and shrimp talk nonsense.

  The movie soon entered its final stage, with the last big battle scene showing Tin and his gang dressing up as police officers to infiltrate the police station, attempting to kill Cheung, who had betrayed them. This time, they were filming on location, and the crew actually entered the Hong Kong Police Headquarters to film, where they fired guns, set off explosives, and smashed things. It was exhilarating, but also very tiring.

  This final duel was shot for nearly two weeks, spanning Christmas and New Year's Day. Several main actors were injured to varying degrees, and they all took a thorough rest after filming, except for Hawick Lau who had to rush to shoot "The Legend of Xiao Chuo".

  He Mu was one of the better ones among everyone else, and wasn't hurt too badly.

  There was a scene where he jumped down from the window, about 10 meters high. Although there were wires, the danger factor was still very high because it was several consecutive jumps and each one had to be accurately completed. If one link went wrong, they would have to start all over again. This tested He Mu's physical fitness and also tested the level of the wire masters, who had to coordinate and cooperate well.

  Before the shoot, the director asked him if he wanted to use a stunt double because it was a long shot and his face couldn't be seen clearly. He shook his head in refusal. If Xie Tongfeng dared to jump down from an even higher building, he only had ten meters and still used a stunt double, which would simply damage his high-handed image.

  This time, he jumped about five times before passing through. The only injury He Mu suffered was a dislocated ankle joint during the third jump, and then he himself stamped his foot and fixed it immediately, saying with ease: "Let's do it again."

  Compared to He Mu, Fang Zumeng is a bit miserable. The two of them have more confrontational scenes, and when Xie Tingfeng, Yu Wenle, and Wu Jing are fighting in the back, it's always He Mu and Fang Zumeng competing with each other.

  There was a scene where the two were fighting in the fire, because the scene was too noisy, He Mu and Fang Zuming didn't hear the director shouting "cut", so they kept fighting, resulting in Fang Zuming's pants leg catching on fire. Although He Mu and the staff put out the fire in time, Fang Zuming's leg still suffered a certain degree of burns.

  The little house was injured, and He Mu had no more scenes to shoot. He followed the crew's staff to send Fang Zuming to the hospital for treatment. Although Fang Zuming looked a bit pale, he didn't cry when his wound was being treated. The doctor said that the injury wasn't serious, just a minor burn, and he would be able to get out of bed tomorrow.

  Fang Zumu's fight scenes have been completed, and from now on, he won't need to engage in intense physical activity. Upon hearing that he can take a break tomorrow, Fang Zumu requests to continue filming instead, which is somewhat reminiscent of his father's style.

  Jackie Chan is a Cao Cao's, just thought about it in his heart and he appeared.

  Big Brother has just finished filming "The Moment of the Peak 3" and is brewing a big plan with Jet Li. At this time, he was in Hong Kong when he heard that his son was bravely injured while filming, thinking that his son had lacked his care since childhood, so he rushed to the hospital to comfort Little House.

  The iconic big nose, the radiant smile, this face familiar to all nationals is undoubtedly Jackie Chan's. At such an old age, he still walks with the wind. Seeing others in the house, Jackie Chan first greeted He Mu, "Hello."

  Facing the current Chinese entertainment industry's number one, international Kung Fu superstar Jackie Chan, He Mu still felt a bit pressured. He thought he should be polite and so called out: "Hello, Uncle."

  Cheng Long was taken aback, usually people would call him Big Brother Cheng Long, this was the first time he heard someone call him Uncle, it's interesting...
