Huayu: From charlatan to great entertainer

Chapter 78 Dream Week Club

Looking at the basketball hoop that seemed so close yet so far away, Jay Chou's eyes hurt from the sweat.

He thought of himself standing next to Wu Zongxian like a minion when he first debuted.

The thought of being pointed at by the girls at the company, saying how hunchbacked and insignificant I am, and how I wear a hat or a hoodie every day like a clown who is not to be seen by others;
Thinking of my mother Ye Huimei who raised me with great difficulty;
Thinking about the hardships and difficulties I have experienced along the way...

Jaylen rushed towards Boss Lu with the ball, but even though he was nearly ten centimeters shorter than him, it was still like an egg hitting a rock.

"Give me some strength, you useless bastard!"

Lu Kuan turned into a sharp-tongued person and began to "abuse" the actors like Hitchcock.

Hitchcock said that actors are "beasts."

This statement caused such an uproar in Hollywood that the master was forced to come out to explain: "I did not say that actors are livestock. What I said is that actors need to be treated like livestock."

Well, you might as well not explain.

In "The Thief", he deliberately excited and had physical contact with actress Diane Shell, just like Lu Kuan who is staring at Jay Chou and lashing out at him now;

In "The Birds", he changed the props into real birds. When the unsuspecting heroine Hedren came on set, a group of crazy birds bit and pecked at her, and she fainted before the end of the shot.
The rest, like shooting a real gun at the actor and forcing her to act terrified, are all old stuff.

The road is now wide, simply because of the passion of bullfighting in basketball, which allows Jay Chou to completely relax, completely explode, and completely unload his burdens.

After the two men collided exhaustedly, they both screamed and collapsed to the ground, no longer having the strength to get up.

Several exercisers in sports jerseys also hurried over in the distance. The noise scared everyone.

From a distance, I saw that the people on Lu Kuan were all young faces. I was afraid that my own children or the children of important people might get into trouble here.

The leader was Chen Daoming, wearing Meng Zhou's jersey. He looked at the sloppy and disheveled Lu Kuan and the sweaty Jay Chou in disbelief.

"Xiaolu, what are you doing?"

He was quite impressed by this young man during his fourth audition at Beijing Film Academy.

Chen Daoming wanted to laugh but felt it was impolite. Although Lu Kuan was old enough to be his son, he was still in the circle and was very popular.

Lu Kuan looked at Chen Daoming, Hu Jun and others coming over awkwardly. There was also a middle-aged woman with great charm walking over gracefully with a manager-like figure.

This is Fan Xian’s real stepmother Liu Bei, not the stepmother in the drama.

The manager was Mr. Xu, the one who had contacted the front desk. He politely asked, "Is there a small misunderstanding, guests? Do you need any help?" Lu Kuan smiled and said, "No problem, I'm just exercising. Sorry to disturb you all."

Jay Chou is not good at socializing, so he waited for Lu Kuan to settle the matter before he quickly slipped away. Fortunately, it happened in such a private venue, otherwise he and Lu Kuan would definitely be on the headlines tomorrow.

"Come here, Jie Lun, let me introduce you." Lu Kuan pulled him over generously.

"This is Mr. Chen Daoming, this is Mr. Hu Jun, and this is Mr. Liu Bei. They are all talented actors from our mainland."

It was the first time for Hu Jun and Liu Bei to see Lu Kuan. They had heard of his name as a little god in their small circle, and his glorious deeds of stirring up troubles were spread on the Internet, even Eagle Emperor and Zhang Tianshuo had fallen.

Now it seems that he is a decent person and everyone greeted him with a smile.

Hu Jun's dark face showed his honesty as he shook hands with Jay Chou.

He then joked to Lu Kuan, "Director Lu, I went to audition for Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils a while ago and heard Director Zhang mention you. It's true that hearing about you is worse than meeting you in person."

"Oh?" Lu Kuan was surprised. "It's a good thing that Mr. Hu didn't hear about me from Zhang Tianshuo. That wouldn't be a good reputation, haha."

Chen Daoming and Liu Bei laughed when they heard him making fun of himself, and thought that this young man was quite interesting.

"Well, teachers, we'll take our leave now. We finished filming early today, so we came here to exercise."

Lu Kuan told a few people to run away and leave the place of trouble.

Chen Daoming looked at the people walking away, smiled and shook his head, feeling that he could not see through this kid.

Liu Bei watched Lu Kuan and the others walk away, arm in arm, laughing. He whispered to Chen Daoming, "Daoming, are you familiar with this young guide? How's his professional level?"

"I'm not familiar with him. Yuan Zheng is currently in his crew. He says he's quite professional and doesn't seem like a new director."

Chen Daoming just pretended to be bored and chatted with Liu Bei while wiping his sweat.

Seeing Liu Bei's noncommittal smile, he knew she wasn't asking for no reason: "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

Liu Bei looked helpless: "Isn't it your eldest nephew Ruoyun? He's only in the first year of high school, but he keeps saying that he doesn't want to study anymore and wants to join the crew. It worries his father to death."

Watching Lu Kuan and the others walk away, he sighed quietly, "I don't know what possessed me, but I've become obsessed with Lu Kuan. I cry and howl to his songs every day."
