Chapter 147 Good Brothers

Liu Jing became fascinated with photography, not because he liked it so much, but because the filming of "The Best Under Heaven" was about to start.

Chunqiu Films is one of the main investors of "The World's Number One", so Zhang Min arranged Gao Yuanyuan to play Liu Sheng Piaoxu, Yan Danchen to play Liu Sheng Xueji, and Chen Shasha to play Princess Yunluo.

As for the leading female role, Shangguan Haitang, the investors from Hong Kong and Taiwan decided on Jessica Hsuan.

Liu Jing doesn’t care what role he plays, as it’s not a big deal when it comes to his own plays.

Fatty Wang wanted Liu Jing to play Cheng Shifei. After reading the script, Liu Jing asked for the role of Emperor Zhengde.

He didn't want to play a gangster, he wanted to experience what it was like to be an emperor.

In addition to asking for the role, he also personally wrote a biography of Emperor Zhengde and gave it to Fatty Wang.

The foolish Emperor Zhengde was actually a hidden master who had been sitting on the mountain watching the fight between tigers and allowing all parties to kill each other.

He took action at the last moment and suppressed the world. It turned out that he was the best in the world.

Emperor Zhengde originally did not have many scenes, but after Fatty Wang's revisions, his role was second only to the male lead.

With Liu Jing's favoritism, Liu Sheng Piaoxu became the character with the most scenes. She is not only a killer, but also a chess piece secretly controlled by the emperor.

In order to attract Liu Jing to star in "The Twins", Fatty Wang agreed to be the action director of "The World's Number One".

Liu Jing was holding the camera, just getting familiar with taking pictures.

As he was chatting with Teacher Chen, he suddenly realized something was wrong.

He thought that photography was the art of combining light and shadow.

The photography that Teacher Chen talks about is the combination of beautiful women’s body proportions.

However, compared to Xie Tingfeng, Liu Jing felt that this one was easier to get along with.

Xie Tingfeng behaved like a child in front of Cheng Long.

But when facing Liu Jing, he obviously treated him as a child, so Liu Jing felt unhappy.

How old are you? You act like a boss in front of me.

Liu Jing and Teacher Chen had a very pleasant conversation. Teacher Chen has unique experience in photographing people.

Jiang Yi was happy to be the model for the two men, one was a well-known Oscar-winning Kung Fu boy, and the other was a popular star favored by the Eagle King. She was even happy to do something else, but unfortunately the two men seemed to have no interest in her.

Her long legs, which she was so proud of, were not as attractive as the camera.

"You go and do your work first." Teacher Chen waved his hand, and Jiang Yi left tactfully, as he had other things to discuss.

"Edison, you are looking for me specifically, right?" Liu Jing put the camera in his bag and handed it to the assistant beside him.

The assistant was a woman in her forties, arranged by Zhang Min for him.

"That's right! You ruined Yan Yingsi's role, and I'm here to get it back for her." Teacher Chen answered straightforwardly.

"Oh! How do you plan to get it back?" Liu Jing asked with a smile.

If Teacher Chen hadn't mentioned it, Liu Jing would have forgotten about this person.

When filming "The Book and the Sword" that year, Cai preferred Liu Shishi to play Princess Xiangxiang, but investors from Hong Kong and Taiwan chose Yan Siying.

Without Liu Jing's support, Mr. Cai might not have been able to achieve his wish.

The Book and the Sword has been released, but unfortunately it did not cause much response. Princess Xiangxiang, played by Liu Shishi, did not cause much waves either.

Lao Cai did hire someone to market the product, but it didn't work very well.

The hot topic recently is still the Fairy Sister. Princess Xiangxiang is overshadowed by Wang Yuyan's halo.

Liu Jing didn't take the play seriously, and gained more than 10,000 points of entertainment energy, but Chunqiu Pictures didn't make much money.

"The old guys told me to keep quiet, as I didn't want to get into a fight with you over a role. But I refused to listen and insisted on coming to meet you. I originally wanted to get to know you, and then find a few brothers to stop you and beat you up. Suddenly I heard you say that your camera doesn't take pictures of men. I thought it was interesting, so I came over to get to know you." Teacher Chen explained.

"Is she your girlfriend?" Liu Jing asked.

Teacher Chen hesitated and shook his head, "No, we are good friends."

"Edison is really kind to women. He can't bear to see his sex partner being wronged." Liu Jing laughed.

Teacher Chen frowned, "Are you sure you're only sixteen this year?"

"Do you want me to show you my ID card?" Liu Jing was in a bad mood and silently made a note of it for Teacher Chen.

The person I thought was a nice guy actually wanted to stop me and beat me up.

He didn't really care if a few people blocked his way, but how could he not be happy when someone else wanted to do the same.

"Haha, come on, I'll introduce my brother to you." Teacher Chen laughed, put his arm around Liu Jing's shoulder, and walked towards the crew lounge.

Teacher Chen’s good friend is Xiao Xie. Someone introduced him to others as the cocky Xiao Xie who no longer pretends to be cool and can still talk and laugh.

"Teacher Liu Jing, do your makeup." The makeup artist came over and interrupted the three people's chat.

"Okay." Liu Jing stood up.

"Luvei, I'm holding a party tomorrow night and I invite you to attend." Teacher Chen said.

"No! Let's talk about it after I finish filming. I'm playing a pervert this time, and it's not easy to get into the mood." Liu Jing refused. The conversation between the two just now was all about women. He seriously doubted whether this party was a serious party.

"Okay! I'll hold a party for you when you finish filming." Teacher Chen did not give up. Brothers who can party together are good brothers.

"I'm afraid you will arrange a few people to beat me up at the party." Liu Jing joked.

"Haha, I'll definitely arrange a few women to see how tough you are." Teacher Chen laughed.

Liu Jing followed the makeup teacher and left. On the way, he was still sighing. After so many years in the entertainment industry, he was used to seeing false friendships. How could Liu Jing not be moved to see such a sincere friendship between Teacher Chen and Xiao Xie?

The crew is busy setting up the location, and today they are going to shoot An Jing's first scene. Chen Guorong learns of the hiding place of the five criminals, and personally leads his team to arrest them. Unexpectedly, they fall into An Jing's trap and are almost wiped out.

The venue had already been set up, it was just a matter of re-confirming its safety before filming began.

"Jackie, we will be shooting here for the next few days. I'm still worried. Can you tell me what's going on now? I'm really unsure." Director Chen Musheng was worried.

He checked Liu Jing's profile and found that he had never played a villain, so he was very worried that he would not be able to do it. But Cheng Long strongly recommended him and had full confidence in Liu Jing.

Leslie Cheung's plays are different from those played by Jacky Cheung in the past. They are not just about fighting and killing, but also about emotional scenes.

Brotherhood, colleagues, and love, he was worried that Cheng Long would not be able to perform these delicate emotional scenes well.

"You'll know in a minute." Cheng Long was mysterious and still unwilling to talk.

"No! I don't want to wait for a while, you have to tell me now." Chen Musheng grabbed Cheng Long's arm and refused to let him leave.

"Hey! This is a new dress. If you tear it, how can I film?" Cheng Long struggled twice but couldn't get free.

"If you don't tell me, don't even think about leaving." Chen Musheng acted like a rogue.

"Is there a director like you? Okay, okay, I'll tell you, I'll tell you." Seeing that the other party was about to grab his collar, Cheng Long surrendered quickly, "When I was filming "Rush Hour" with him, the director told him to play a spoiled second-generation official. The energy this guy put into the performance was just like the real thing. The director asked him to hold back, and the character he played was not a second-generation official, but a lawless rich second-generation rich man."

Chen Musheng let go of Cheng Long, half believing and half doubting, "It is said that he has a strong background, so he is not acting in his true colors, right?"

Cheng Long shook his head, "I thought so too back then, and later went to investigate him. At that time, his family was not as well off as it is now. He had some background, and his father worked in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, but his position was not high. His mother was once a dancer, and she had invested in some industries, but she was not very wealthy."

"He was a child star, so it's normal for him to have some acting skills. There's nothing to be surprised about." Chen Musheng didn't care.

"Oh! You don't understand. I was stunned at that time. Later, Zhang Min suggested that Liu Jing play this role, and I didn't object." Cheng Long sighed.

"Five or six years have passed, and at that time..." Chen Musheng became more and more unconvinced.

"He's out." Cheng Long straightened his clothes and waved to Liu Jing.

"I'll kill you..." Chen Musheng was also dumbfounded. He was arrogant, lawless, wanton, and arrogant...

"You're blocking my sunlight, get out of the way." Liu Jing stretched out his hand and tried to chase Cheng Long away like he was shooing away a fly.

"Haha, let's watch a fight." Cheng Long had long wanted to test Liu Jing's skills.

"There are no tables, benches, brooms or vases here." Liu Jing grabbed Cheng Long's arm and tried to knock him down.

"Don't touch my new clothes."

Crackling...

The two men started fighting, one was agile, the other was quick to react. One was flexible and changeable, the other was full of tricks.

Cheng Long only has so many tricks, and Liu Jing saw through them a few years ago.

The two men were not fighting to the death, they were just excited to see the prey and wanted to practice their fists and feet.

Liu Jing always stopped at the right time and did not use any harsh measures.

"This guy is so good." Xie Tingfeng murmured. He had been training for two months and thought he had become a master. After watching the two people fight, he suddenly realized that he didn't want to make any moves.

"Fortunately, I didn't find a few people to stop him and beat him up. It would probably be me who got beaten up." Teacher Chen wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Cheng Long was at a disadvantage.

"You want to beat him?" Xiao Xie was surprised.

"He ruined one of Yan Yingsi's roles, and I came to vent her anger," explained Teacher Chen.

"Hey! Brother, if you want to pursue Vincy, be careful of the impact." Xiao Xie gave his brother some advice.

"Half a month ago, I overheard Lao Yang and Cheng Long chatting. He said that Vincy and Liu Jing are about the same age, and wanted Cheng Long to introduce them to each other." Teacher Chen looked depressed.

"You must have heard it wrong." Xiao Xie was surprised.

"There's nothing wrong with my ears. They work better than my eyes."

"No wonder you came here, are you here to retaliate?" Xiao Xie looked alert, wondering whether he should inform on the person.

"Don't worry, let's compete fairly. I won't lose to anyone. There is no woman in this world that I can't handle." Teacher Chen put his arm around Xiao Xie's shoulders.

After five or six minutes, the two stopped fighting. Cheng Long rubbed his wrist and said, "Good boy, even if two Yuan Kui stood in front of you, they might not be your match."

"Go away, go away, what are you looking at?" Chen Musheng shouted at the crowd with a loud speaker.

"Brother, I finally got into the state, and you beat me to death." Liu Jing was very depressed. In order to adjust the state, he spent a lot of effort. I dare not say that I copied the second-generation ancestor 100%, but 60% to 70% is still possible.

"You're not in the right state." Cheng Long smiled bitterly.

"What's wrong?" Liu Jing wondered.

"Go ahead." Cheng Long pulled Chen Musheng over and, with a ripping sound, tore his clothes open.

"Fuck you, these are new clothes too." Chen Musheng was furious.

"Hehe, I'll buy you two. Talk to him and tell him what's wrong with him." Cheng Long's old face turned red. He had just fought with all his strength and couldn't control his strength for a moment.

"Why didn't you tell him?"

"You are the director." Cheng Long made way. What a joke! He just felt something was wrong. His vocabulary was poor and he didn't know how to describe it in words.

"Liu Jing, I heard from Cheng Long that your dream is to become a director. If you want to be a director, you must learn to analyze roles. Not just through script analysis, but also in combination with reality, logic, and the relationships between characters. The script is written by the screenwriter, but the director has to understand the characters. You must have your own understanding, instill this understanding into the actors, and finally shape the character. I want to hear how you understand the character of An Jing." Chen Musheng opened the thermos and took a sip of tea.

"Well! Because of family reasons, An Jing's personality is extremely complex and twisted. He was abused by his father since he was a child, so he has an extreme hatred for the police. He is cruel and arrogant to the victims, and cold and ruthless to his accomplices. He openly provokes the police and takes pleasure in it, just to enjoy the excitement and pleasure. From this point of view, he is a psychologically twisted pervert. He is also strong and competitive. He robbed the bank not for money, but just to prove himself, eager to get recognition and respect from others." Liu Jing pondered for a moment and expressed his understanding.

"Your analysis is correct. He is brutal, arrogant, competitive, psychologically twisted, and complex. At the same time, he is very smart. With his intelligence and superb skills, he formed a criminal group of five and planned various actions." Chen Musheng was a little surprised, and changed the subject, "But what you showed was wrong. Just now, you didn't say a word, but through your expression, walking, and movements, I saw an arrogant and domineering playboy. But brutality and arrogance are two different concepts, and competitive and strong on the outside but weak on the inside are also two different states."

"I understand." Liu Jing sighed, this was too much.

"Remember this. An Jing is a child who has lacked love since childhood. Behind his brutality lies his fragility, and behind his arrogant appearance lies his inferiority. Come, let's try again..."
