After all of them were reborn, who would still be an actor?

Chapter 769 One-Punch Man 2
"You're playing the lead role?" Derek Yee's brain immediately went blank.

“Yes!” Li Mingyang said.

"Wait! Putting aside whether it's a reshoot or not, this is how my script is written, how are you going to film it... Besides, the moment your face appears, it has absolutely nothing to do with the drifters in Hengdian! The script and the character are completely disconnected! No way, next time we work together, let's do an ultimate gun king!"

Zhang Guorong's Gun King and Principal Azugu's Gun King can be considered Derek Yee's series of works.

But Li Mingyang didn't want to film anything like "Ultimate Gun King"; he preferred "I Am Somebody".

Damn, he was a struggling actor in Hengdian World Studios in his past life!
I've spent half my life in Hengdian!
Since my life experiences cannot be made into a movie.

Making that past life experience into a movie can be considered as fulfilling one of my 'dream's'!
In his past life, he wanted to play a minor role, but he was rejected before he even got to see Derek Yee's face.

The casting director's reason was, "Why are you, an academic, getting involved?"

This is fucking painful!
I could borrow Derek Yee's character "I'm Just a Passerby" to make my own autobiographical film. Just thinking about it makes me feel so cool!
However, Derek Yee was reluctant, mainly because of his fame; he wasn't just some nobody.

"What are you going to do with all this fuss? When will it ever end?" Li Mingyang said in a gentle tone, "Director Er, don't worry, I'm easy to get along with. I'm not a domineering person like Jiang Wen. I know when to stop and I will never overstep my bounds. You can rest assured."

"That's not the question."

"Stop with the formalities. I'm an investor, after all. What's wrong with me bringing my own funding to the project?"

Er Dongshen was stunned for a moment, feeling as if he had been struck by lightning.

Who is Li Mingyang?

The man with the most box office appeal in Asia—whenever his name appears, a bloodbath is bound to ensue!

Derek Yee dreamed of having him as the male lead in his movie.

But random passersby won't do!
This is not true!
He just wanted Li Mingyang to make a cameo appearance and help with the publicity, but he didn't expect Li Mingyang to take a liking to me as a nobody and want to bring his own investment to the production so he could play the male lead himself.

“Director Li, you’re making a movie about extras? That’s like using a cannon to kill a mosquito. It’s not suitable for you! Besides, you still have your own movie to make. Do you have time?” Er Dongshen didn’t dare to offend Li Mingyang directly, so he refused indirectly.

“If I had the time, I would have filmed it myself. But I don’t have the time, so I let you direct it. I trust you,” Li Mingyang said.

Derek Yee's face stiffened. Good heavens, in just a short while, his movie became Li Mingyang's, and the director was even given to him by Li Mingyang.

"I'll be the lead actor, and I'll provide the main storyline. Then I can weave your story into it. It's feasible, very simple, and super quick to film." Li Mingyang became more and more excited as he spoke, his wolfish ambitions becoming increasingly obvious.

Er Dongshen felt like he had let a wolf into his house.

This is an insult!

However... being a random passerby is really not a good project.

He felt it was very meaningful, which is why he filmed it.

"Director, people either pursue fame or money. What are you after?" Li Mingyang said patiently.

"..."

"Berna only verbally agreed to buy the extra, but actually paid five million. Most of the filming costs for the extra were paid out of your own pocket, right?"

Er Dong gave a wry smile and nodded.

“I think you’re quite naive, but filmmakers need this kind of naivety, and even more so, this kind of courage. I’m willing to take care of everything for you, from filming to distribution… Chinese-language films shouldn’t let down directors like you.”

"That's too much, too much..."

"So, are you after fame or money?" Li Mingyang asked again.

When faced with this question, Er Dongshen remained silent again.

"I just want to do my part to let more people know about Hengdian, let more people know about the Hengdian drifters, and let more people know about the world's largest film and television base under our feet. From a certain perspective, this can also be considered a kind of cultural export."

Derek Yee adjusted his glasses, suddenly stood up, and said with a serious expression, "I used to think that Director Li liked to use fallacies, but I never imagined... it was all a misunderstanding! Director Li is a very insightful filmmaker!"

Li Mingyang also stood up and extended his hand, "Director Er, it's been a pleasure working with you?"

"It's a pleasure to cooperate!" Er Dongshen solemnly extended both hands and firmly grasped Li Mingyang's hands.

It includes both domestic and overseas markets.

He really had no reason to refuse! Director Li offered him too much!
……

Mingyang Entertainment.

Li Mingyang sat in the boss's chair. He had fallen last time, so the wheeled boss's chair was replaced with a fixed large sofa. Three people could sit together without it falling over.

Yang Mi sat in Li Mingyang's lap, staring at the new One-Punch Man 2 with a shocked expression!

On October 30th, the new One-Punch Man 2 was released on iQiyi, Youku, and Tencent Video at noon, and was also simultaneously released on Facebook.

Despite the uproar from Wall Street and Hollywood, the new One-Punch Man unexpectedly achieved a simultaneous domestic and overseas release.

One-Punch Man 2.

On an ordinary morning, Saitama was on the balcony, bothered by mosquitoes. He tried to squash them, but their evasiveness was truly incredible, and he couldn't kill them...

The scene shifts to a television in a room broadcasting the news: a new type of mosquito, like a black storm, has struck a city.

Countless lives were lost, and the deaths were extremely gruesome.

The leader of the monsters was classified as a Demon-level monster by the Hero Association.

The camera zooms in, the television subtitles disappear, and eerie black clouds appear in the sky above the disaster-stricken city, blotting out the sun. Below the black clouds, there is a humanoid female mosquito monster.

She struck alluring poses, flaunting her charms; her sensual red lips seemed to drain humanity dry.

An eerie black mist enveloped a person, and within moments, he was visibly dried out.

The mosquito girl licked her red lips, still wanting more.

Just as the mosquito woman was about to move to a more crowded place to suck human blood.

An energy cannon suddenly struck; Genos, the "budget warrior," had arrived.

Accompanied by a righteous shout of "Found it!"

The blonde, iron-armed, cool cyborg walks out from the left side of the screen with his back turned. He glances down at the withered corpse on the ground and analyzes that the tattooed woman enhances her abilities with blood, and that all the mosquitoes are under her control.

The camera pans to the mosquito woman in the sky, from a wide shot to a close-up, from bottom to top, finally settling on the mosquito woman's beautiful upper body.

The actress who plays Mosquito Girl is Nami, one of the Four Beauties of the Western Regions.

Nami's stunning beauty and slender figure perfectly match Mosquito Girl!

As the first beautiful and eccentric woman to appear, she is of paramount importance!
After looking around, Li Mingyang finally chose Mina.

The mosquito woman, seeing a prey, was overjoyed. She had been worried about not having any food, so she immediately commanded the mosquitoes to attack.

The swarm of mosquitoes, like a black fog, attacked the cyborgs like tentacles.

A raging inferno suddenly rose up, and in the flames, the cyborg's indomitable and righteous face appeared!
It was Old Wu.

Old Wu has a rough appearance and a bandit-like air about him.

However, Genos is going to undergo a major makeover, including his eyes, where he will be wearing colored contact lenses.

The makeup change turned out great.

From bandit to hero, his heroic spirit soars to the heavens!

Her golden hair had also grown longer.

Compared to the original Genos, who was handsome enough to be an idol, Lao Wu's Genos is more like the righteous Super Saiyan Son Goku!
Genos soared into the sky, flying into the air to engage in close combat with the mosquito girl. The powerful energy boost made him fearless.

But Mosquito Girl was no pushover either; her high-speed movement allowed her to dodge attack after attack.

The camera angle changes from shooting from a low angle to shooting from a high angle.

The film is shot in one continuous take, with both sides moving rapidly back and forth, freezing in place, and then moving back again.

The rotation of light and shadow, occasionally revealing a bright white light, is like looking directly at the sunlight!

A stroke of genius!

It's dazzling!

It provides the audience with a tremendous visual stimulation!

On the other side, Saitama's veins were bulging, and he was furious. He was helpless against the strongest mosquito on Earth.

The camera then pans to high in the sky.

The high-speed collision was like two flashes of lightning that disappeared in an instant.

next second!
The Mosquito Woman's head spikes tore off Genos's metal arm.

Just as Mosquito Girl was feeling smug, she glanced back and saw that her legs had been cut off by Genos in that instant.

The Mosquito Woman was enraged, her eyes gradually turning evil. Countless mosquitoes surrounded her, until they dispersed.

The Mosquito Girl, having absorbed the essence and blood of countless living beings, has evolved!
Blood-red armor, dark red patterns, white hair turned pink, and it danced menacingly.

Lost legs, severed limbs regenerated.

A bewitching face, a seductive figure, and an eerie blood-red glow!
She reigns supreme like a queen!
The Crimson Mosquito Woman has launched her attack! With a wave of her slender arms, mosquitoes from all directions converge in the sky, blotting out the sun!

Genos activated the left-hand thruster, flashing with fire, ready for battle!
Just at this critical moment, Saitama suddenly ran over.

It turns out that the city suffering from the mosquito plague is the same city where Saitama lives.

He was running wildly down the street with a sprayer in his hands, trying to get rid of mosquitoes.

Genos gestured for Saitama to leave, but Saitama didn't care; he only had eyes for the mosquito!

Suddenly, the screen went dark.

Countless mosquitoes shrouded the entire street in darkness.

Dark clouds are threatening to destroy the city!
The powerful destructive force instantly destroyed the skyscrapers.

Genos made his move; flashes of light burst forth in the darkness, followed by a massive explosion.

The entire city seemed to be lit up, with towering waves of fire!

Although the mosquito army was wiped out, the price was that Saitama became an exhibitionist.

Holy Light Mosaic!
Faced with such an awkward situation, Genos didn't even have time to apologize before the Crimson Mosquito Girl arrived!
Countless drops of blood rushed into her body, causing a qualitative change in her.

She is now incredibly powerful, easily shredding nearby buildings into pieces with a single strike.

With lightning speed, he appeared behind Genos in a flash.

The camera pans between fast and slow motion...

It flew swiftly, leaving a streak of red light in the air.

Amidst the red light, the blood-red mosquito woman's body was being pulled at high speed, like a mosquito swooping down.

Appearing behind Genos, the image freezes, showing the Blood Mosquito Girl in her battle stance, heroic and dashing, with her claws outstretched!

With a swift swing of his claws, Genos was instantly cut in half at the waist!

The electric sparks crackled and hissed.

Genos tried to retaliate, but the next second he was kicked into the air and left to be ravaged by the mosquitoes.

Facing the Blood Red Mosquito Woman, whose strength has increased dramatically after evolution,
Genos fell into a muttering to himself. Faced with this situation, he decisively chose to self-destruct.

Perhaps this is the best ending.

A dazzling white light flashed across Genos's severed waist, as if it were about to explode at any moment!

"I'm sorry, Doctor!"

"Haha!" The Crimson Mosquito Girl let out a triumphant shout, ready to deliver a fatal blow to Genos!
Snapped!
Saitama has made his move.

A slap landed on the face of the blood-red mosquito woman, on the mosquito.

With just one slap, the Blood Red Mosquito Woman was reduced to a pool of blood, with blood spurting everywhere.

It turned the dilapidated building next door into a blood-red stain.

Genos was stunned, his mouth agape in disbelief!

"Finally got the shot! So satisfying, hahaha!"

Saitama killed the mosquito and said with great satisfaction!
Saitama, having achieved his goal, turned and left.

The camera gradually zooms out, expanding from a close-up to a distant view.

The streets were completely destroyed, the buildings were covered in blood, and the white clouds in the sky were split open to reveal a long blue river.

"Wait a moment!"

Genos recognized Saitama's strength and asked to become his apprentice.

However, Saitama glanced at it indifferently, did not accept it, and walked towards his home.

The shadow of the strong grows longer and longer on the ground!

A few days later, Genos, now fully repaired, came to Saitama's door and asked Saitama to take him on as an apprentice so he could learn his skills.

Saitama looked reluctant, but out of politeness, he still invited him into the house.

As soon as Genos sat down, he began to ramble on about his past.

He was originally human and lived a happy life.

But one day, a runaway robot destroyed his home, and it was the doctor who saved Genos from his impending death.

And transformed him into what he is today.

Genos takes it upon himself to eliminate monsters and has been searching for his enemies.

He hoped Saitama could teach him how to become stronger.

Saitama listened with growing impatience, because Genos was just too talkative.

He got angry and told Genos to get out!

However, when faced with the tuition fee offered by Genos, Saitama hesitated for a moment before accepting this cheap apprentice.

The camera turned.

House of Evolution.

In a room bathed in pale green fluorescence, a video is playing from a hollow 3D projection.

The video being played was of Saitama killing Mosquito Girl.

Judging from the video footage, this is clearly the first-person perspective of the Mosquito Girl.

"Even though it was a defective product, it killed Mosquito Girl in one hit. This bald guy is very strong..."

The speaker was a refined-looking man with glasses.

He was so interested in Saitama that he completely ignored the S-class hero projected on the screen.
Send someone to capture Saitama and study him thoroughly! Create an even more powerful monster!

……

It was another sunny morning, and Saitama's house suffered another disaster.

The House of Evolution's capture henchmen broke into Saitama's house.

One punch to the head!
Every punch explodes!

Outside the window, a slug and a toad were having a lively discussion:
"This bald guy is pretty strong, huh?"

"Yes, that bald guy was completely unharmed."

Before he could finish speaking, a dark shadow flashed by, and Saitama knocked the two monsters head over heels.

It got stuck in the soil.

Suddenly, a pair of sharp claws emerged from the ground, burying Saitama alive, leaving only his bald head outside.

Click!

A giant gorilla wearing black armor appeared behind Genos.

Faced with the armored gorilla, Genos immediately activated his "budget mode," unleashing powerful energy that instantly engulfed the street in flames.

The special effects are absolutely amazing!

However, it was all for naught; the gorilla robot was completely unharmed!

The two sides engaged in fierce hand-to-hand combat.

On the other hand, Saitama, facing being buried alive, not only showed no concern, but even yawned comfortably.

This angered the Golden Lion King, who then threatened to gouge out Saitama's eyes.

Saitama shook himself out of the ground, ready to test his skills against the Golden Lion King.

Before the fight started, he dusted himself off. He only had one Superman suit, and he cherished it.

Feeling slighted, the Golden Lion King roared, his eyes turning blood red, his beard and mane bristling, and the veins on his arms bulging!
With a single swipe of its claw, even the air itself seemed to be torn apart!
With a single swipe of its claw, its companions were all sliced ​​into pieces!

Faced with the agile Saitama, the Golden Lion King, unable to break through after a long attack, unleashed his ultimate move!
Suddenly, the Lion King's energy exploded, his clothes ripped apart, and tiny beams of light spilled out from his body!

The Golden Lion King undergoes a super evolution!
The Golden Lion King! Its size has more than doubled!
The Lion King has become faster and stronger!
The streets were like paper, covered with deep, long claw marks.

But his attacks couldn't even touch Saitama.

The Lion King was even more enraged and unleashed his ultimate attack!

The golden-haired lion king opened its massive jaws, and a beam of light shot out! Lion King Piercing Cannon!
Saitama has made his move!
One punch, two punches, three punches, four punches.

Continuous ordinary punches!

The Lion King's piercing cannon was shattered, and his body was destroyed.

The mole monster standing nearby was stunned. He frantically burrowed into the ground.

Warning: A bizarre bald head appears before you, and the outcome is self-evident.

Meanwhile, Genos's battle has ended.

"Answer my question, or disappear! Choose!"

Genos pressed the gorilla for the purpose of his trip.

"Fool! My strength ranks only third in the House of Evolution. With your abilities, you are no match for the Lion King, who ranks second! You can just wait to die!"

But the gorilla was full of confidence in the lion king's power and kept showing off.

Unexpectedly, Saitama walked over carrying one of the Lion King's eyes, asking, "Is the second one about him?"

The gorilla's expression changed instantly.

"I'm sorry, I'll confess everything, please let me go!"

"What? You couldn't even speak human language just now."

"Sorry, I was feeling pretty good just now and I deliberately acted like a big shot."

What a tough gorilla! He instantly revealed everything about the House of Evolution.

The screen went black, then lit up again.

House of Evolution.

The founder of the House of Evolution was a genius doctor named Gino.

He regained his youth by studying genes and cloned multiple versions of himself.

He hopes to study Saitama's body and explore the mysteries of evolution.

Inside the base, alarms were blaring incessantly.

in the surveillance screen.

Saitama and Genos attacked the base. Genos transformed into Iron Man, unleashing all his weapons, and all the base's defenses were destroyed by the fiery cannons!
The elite troops were wiped out, and Baldy and Genos are now attacking.

The situation is critical.

Gino made a decision: activate the Dragon-level peak monster, Asura Rhino Beetle!

Faced with this decision, the clones were shocked and tried to stop Gino!

However, the defensive tower was ultimately blasted to smithereens by a single energy blast from Genos!

"This is the only way."

Gino arrived at the bottom level of the base.

A giant rhinoceros beetle monster was bound by chains.

During negotiations, the strongest creature in the House of Evolution, the Rhinoceros Beetle, agreed to help Gino.

The moment the level one restriction was lifted, the Asura Rhinoceros Beetle went on a frenzied and cruel rampage against its clones to satisfy its bloodthirsty and twisted desires!

It has a huge, horny body, a head about the size of a human, and a distorted, neurotic face.

The actor who plays the role is Wu Zhengyu.

He's a pervert at first glance!
A cameo appearance for 500,000 a week? That's damn cheap!

The scene changes.

Saitama and Genos were walking through the passageway, heading towards the core of the base.

Suddenly, Genos stopped!

"Wow! A powerful guy is coming!"

Before Genos could react, he was slammed into the wall and embedded deeply into it.

A split second!

Saitama was a little angry that his apprentice had been beaten, and he decided to teach the guy in front of him a lesson.

"My name is Asura Rhinoceros Beetle!"

"There's a dedicated combat lab here, let's go fight there!"

So, the man, the monster, and Gino arrived at the combat laboratory that could withstand nuclear bombs!
A huge white space, with six sides covered by white rectangular panels of an unknown material.

The battle is about to begin! The rhinoceros beetle's blood is boiling!

Just defeat the bald guy in front of you!
He will be able to break free of the level 2 restriction and become stronger!

Just then, a burst of flames appeared; it turned out that little Genos had come to offer himself up for another kill...

"Oh, you're still alive?" the rhinoceros beetle said nervously, his face contorted.

Part Two is finished!
