A film series in the Republic of China: The legendary Taoist priest in Shanghai

Zhabei District, slums, a small and dirty wooden house.

Xu Wenqiang screamed in pain, and a foul-smelling green qi gushed out of his mouth.

His body was covered in horrific burns, and there was a large hole in his chest, with three or four ribs faintly visible.

Xu Wenqiang was proud of having mastered the second level of the Baiman Heart Technique, and was invincible in the mortal world of Shanghai.

When he was causing trouble, he was unexpectedly seriously injured by an inconspicuous little talisman.

"Brother Qiang, are you okay?"

Ding Li handed over a glass of water, and Xu Wenqiang took it and drank it all in one gulp.

"Ding Li, you should go back to Feng Jingyao. You should accept this corpse skin Rakshasa banner. It can save your life when necessary. Remember, every time you use it, you must kill a person and then use this banner to absorb their essence, blood, and souls."

Xu Wenqiang took out a small green banner, which was the magic weapon that he used to protect himself by blocking Wencai's attack earlier.

"Brother Qiang, what should we do with that old man? Our gold and the Seventh Heaven have all fallen into his hands."

"Don't mess with him, don't mess with him. If you meet him, run away. If you can't run away, just be a dog. If he doesn't want you to be a dog, just resign yourself to your fate and prepare for a good rebirth! As for money and nightclubs, what does Lao Jin's property mean? As long as Feng Chengcheng can be dealt with, Feng Jingyao's property is more than a hundred Lao Jins."

"Yes, I understand, Brother Qiang! But I really don't know how to start with Cheng Cheng. Otherwise, I will just go straight to her and make it a done deal."

"Idiot, if you do this, Feng Jingyao will be the first one to not let you go."

"With Brother Qiang here, killing Old Dog Feng is as easy as killing an ant."

"You underestimated the leader of the Qing Gang. He has many Japanese experts around him, and he also has a secret treasure given by the Jiujiu Sect. Besides, Feng Chengcheng is soft-hearted and will not respond to force. If you use force, she might die."

"What should I do?"

"Don't worry, Feng Chengcheng still has feelings for me. I will pretend to fall in love with someone else and let her taste the pain of a broken heart. You can just take advantage of this opportunity. Remember, you are not me. There is no need to act cold and cruel. When you are with Feng Chengcheng, just remember that you are a pear seller in Zhabei District, not a Shanghai gangster."

When it comes to feelings, Xu Wenqiang is an expert among experts.

When she was in school, Fang Yanyun was the arrogant school belle. Many boys from wealthy families and good looks tried to pursue her but all failed.

But he ignored her and turned to pursue Fang Yanyun's best friend Dong'er.

Dong'er is plain in appearance and is completely defenseless against the handsome Xu Wenqiang.

Every day when the two of them were together under the moonlight, Dong'er would tell Fang Yanyun how good Xu Wenqiang was, how romantic and talented he was, and how patriotic and capable he was.

Next, Xu Wenqiang inadvertently helped Fang Yanyun drive away the rogue man who was harassing her.

Facing Fang Yanyun's advances, Xu Wenqiang looked into Fang Yanyun's eyes with deep affection and said gently, "It's too late! I can't let Dong'er down."

I regret that we didn’t meet before I got married.

When I loved you, your heart already belonged to someone else.

The frustration of not being able to get the love she wanted occupied Fang Yanyun's heart, causing her to lose control and hug Xu Wenqiang.

That night, the two of them got together behind Dong'er's back.

Later, Xu Wenqiang was in prison for four years. Fang Yanyun came to Shanghai and became a socialite. During that time, she had been with countless men, but the time she spent with Xu Wenqiang was still unforgettable and full of aftertaste.

If Xu Wenqiang acts as a bootlicker, he might be able to pursue Fang Yanyun with his good looks.

But after four years of separation, I still remember who we are.

Only by creating a deeply affectionate, loyal and infatuated character can you make a woman fall in love with him and cannot extricate herself.

Many years later, Fang Yanyun and Xu Wenqiang met again. Xu Wenqiang would deliberately mention Dong'er in front of her from time to time, just to make Fang Yanyun feel that he was passionate, loyal, and devoted.

So Fang Yanfang, a socialite who had experienced countless men, was fascinated by Xu Wenqiang again and was willing to sell her body to help him seduce a gangster.

Xu Wenqiang became a big boss by stepping on the corpse of a gangster, and later successfully climbed up to Feng Jingyao.

The root cause was that he took the woman's route and borrowed Fang Yanyun's power.

When Fang Yanyun wanted to reconcile with him, she was kicked away by Xu Wenqiang.

When it comes to playing with people's feelings, Xu Wenqiang's infatuated and cold-hearted man character is a hundred times better than being a bootlicker and giving away designer bags.

Ding Li and Xu Wenqiang's level of picking up girls is like the difference between The Return of the Condor Heroes, The Great Wu and The Small Wu and Yang Guo.

Ding Li pursues Feng Chengcheng, intentionally or unintentionally imitating Xu Wenqiang's coldness.

Recently, even his clothing taste and tone of voice have been imitating Xu Wenqiang.

He was too deliberate, which annoyed Feng Chengcheng.

Xu Wenqiang pointed out his fault in one sentence.

If you want to pursue Feng Chengcheng, just be yourself.

When the goddess is heartbroken, he will gradually enter her life as a male best friend.

Of course, different girls have different ways of pursuing them.

This trick works for Miss Feng Chengcheng.

If it were a vain woman, she might as well just throw money at him.

If you are a woman like Lin Daiyu, you might as well act more macho and show more strength.

Besides, Miss Feng Chengcheng is not a loyal person.

Of course, if it were a devoted woman like Yiping, she would stay with her lover even if he left her for ten or twenty years, even if he was in poverty.

Ding Li was listening very carefully to Xu Wenqiang's instructions on how to pursue Feng Chengcheng.

He came from a humble background and knew how to seize every opportunity for advancement.

Xu Wenqiang is a truly powerful man, and every word he says is a wise saying about life.

Following him, Ding Li went from being a pear selling boy to the boss of Seventh Heaven in just one year.

Ding Li was very grateful for Xu Wenqiang's support, but he also secretly vowed that sooner or later he would trample this big brother under his feet.

It was not for any other reason, because Ding Li felt that Xu Wenqiang treated him like a fool and spoke in a condescending and commanding tone.

If Ding Li gains power, the first thing he will do is kill Xu Wenqiang.

******************

The Lanting Theatre is the largest theatre in Shanghai and is also located in the relatively safe French Concession.

Now most of Shanghai's theaters, cinemas, schools and big hotels are located in relatively safe concessions.

The Chinese areas are mostly sweatshops, casinos, and brothels.

There is no way out. The country is in turmoil and we are weak while foreigners are strong outside. The foreigners live dozens of times better than the Chinese on Dragon Country’s land.

In the office of Languan Grand Theater, the legal representative and chairman Jia Yiren sat in the boss chair.

In front of me were two men who came to discuss cooperation.

The two men were Wencai and Ouyang Han, the president of the Fluorescent Drama Club.

"Mrs. Jin, this is the play Feng Bo Ting that we prepared. Here is the script. Please take a look."

Ouyang Han handed the script to the gorgeously dressed lady in front of him.

Languan was the property of Mr. Jin, a well-known entertainment tycoon in Shanghai. After Mr. Jin's death, Languan became the property of Mrs. Jin.

Now, as long as you can impress this beautiful lady, you can perform a patriotic play in the largest theater in Shanghai.

Seeing how beautiful Mrs. Jin was, Ouyang Han felt a little regretful that he should have brought out those young men from the drama club.

Ouyang Han and Wencai are both not good-looking.

Wencai looks like an old country man, and Ouyang Han has a pointed face and monkey cheeks. Both of their looks are the kind that women would fear.

Jia Yiren was holding the script, but she actually didn't quite understand what the script was about.

Wencai asked her to sign the contract today, so she went.

She was an obedient and docile woman, and she knew that she would live a long life as long as she obeyed.

Whether it is Lao Jin, Ding Li or now Xu Tan, none of them can write about an obedient and beautiful woman.

She pretended to flip through a few pages of the script, then looked at Wencai with her big eyes.

Ouyang Han was very close to Wencai, and thought Jia Yi was looking at him and asking him about the drama troupe, so he immediately said, "The script is a tragedy, but we can add some emotional scenes, such as a love scene between Yue Yinping and Qin Hui and Qin Yu, or let Yue Yun lose his memory and be captured by the princess of the Fan Gang."

Zhang Henshui's Mandarin Duck and Butterfly School was popular in the Republic of China. Regardless of whether it was a drama or a storytelling novel, they would have to have some watered-down emotional scenes, otherwise it would not keep up with the times and no one would watch it.

Influenced by Western culture, all historical figures have to learn from Romeo and Juliet, ending up in the wrong place, with the wrong fate and an unforgettable love.

Even in Journey to the West, Tang Monk had to transform into a woman in order to fall in love with Sun Wukong.

All over the country, songs are about love, dramas are about love, and movies are also about love.

This is also what the Japanese and foreigners like to see. When they love each other, they forget that the country is in crisis and is in dire straits.

A man who has been in and out of love all day long becomes a sissy and no longer has the courage to pick up a knife.
