Chapter 922 - You Got Me a Dumbass, Didn't You?

“No need. I am an expert!”

Hearing Fang Qiu’s reminder, He Gaoming immediately said, “I’ll do it myself. Rest assured, there won’t be any problems.”

“But…”

Fang Qiu hesitated for a moment and added, “Why do I feel that you’re unreliable?”

“Me? Unreliable?”

He Gaoming instantly got angry and said, “I’m telling you, I’m in it and I’m sure you’ll be satisfied. Just tell me the time and place!”

“Okay. Anyway, Director Chen Xiaogang has an action director. If you want to make some extra money, you have to work hard on it,” Fang Qiu said casually.

“You pack up. We’ll meet in the capital in a day,” he added.

He Gaoming nodded and replied, “Okay. I’ll call you tomorrow.”

After that, he hung up the phone.

After the call, Fang Qiu returned to school, spent the night in the dormitory, and then flew straight to the capital the next morning.

When he arrived in the capital, he found a random place and waited for He Gaoming and the others to arrive.

Sure enough, his cell phone rang soon.

“I’m in the capital.”

When He Gaoming was put through, his voice came from the other end of the line.

“I’m at the Xiong’an Hotel. Come here directly.”

Fang Qiu told He Gaoming his room number and informed the hotel that they were coming.

Because the Xiong’an Hotel was relatively close to the airport, Fang Qiu soon heard the doorbell ring.

He opened the door and stood there dumbfounded.

Originally, he thought that He Gaoming would come along with a few experts at most, but as soon as the door opened, he saw a large group of people following He Gaoming.

He Gaoming had actually taken all his men here.

“Fang Qiu?”

Seeing Fang Qiu, those who followed He Gaoming were shocked at first, but then they all rushed up in surprise and excitement, asking Fang Qiu for his autograph excitedly.

Helplessly, Fang Qiu could only quickly let everyone into the room. Then he sat down in front of the tea table and kept signing autographs for everyone.

“When are we leaving?” He Gaoming asked casually while Fang Qiu was signing autographs.

“In the afternoon,” Fang Qiu answered briefly.

After signing autographs for everyone, he treated them to a hearty meal. It was not until 40 minutes before the appointed time with Director Chen Xiaogang that he took everyone to the Yanqi Shooting Base in the capital.

The Yanqi Shooting Base was located in Songyang Town, Yanqi District. It was 45 kilometers away from the capital and 25 kilometers away from the capital airport.

When he first arrived in the capital, Fang Qiu had made an appointment with Director Chen Xiaogang to meet at the Yanqi Shooting Base.

Soon, they arrived at the base.

Fang Qiu saw the staff member that Director Chen Xiaogang had specially sent to welcome him.

When the staff member saw Fang Qiu walking over with a large group of people, he was totally dumbfounded.

He didn’t expect Fang Qiu to bring so many people with him.

In the end, he quickly arranged for a bus and brought everyone to the base. They arrived at the set where Director Chen Xiaogang was.

At this moment, Director Chen Xiaogang was busy surveying the set and selecting scenes.

Hearing the news of Fang Qiu’s arrival, he went to welcome him right away.

However, when he saw a large group of people getting out of the bus, he was also stunned.

“What the f*ck! Is he coming for a gang fight? Why did he bring so many people here?”

Without delay, Director Chen Xiaogang went forward and pulled Fang Qiu aside when seeing him get out of the car. He whispered in Fang Qiu’s ear, “What’s going on? Why did you bring so many people here?”

“They are all action directors.”

Fang Qiu smiled and continued, “Each of them is good at something different. Because I haven’t read the script yet, I called them all over for you to select. You may choose whoever you like. Of course, if you like all of them, I have no objections!”

Hearing that, Chen Xiaogang was rendered speechless.

“Why is he so ambitious?”

Looking at Fang Qiu, Chen Xiaogang was at a loss for words. After all, he was the one who had taken the initiative to ask Fang Qiu to act in the movie. Additionally, he was not asked to pay for their travel expenses.

However, he couldn’t figure out how Fang Qiu, who used to be such a reliable person, suddenly acted like this.

As Director Chen Xiaogang was lamenting inwardly, He Gaoming, who had just arrived, had begun to shout.

Glancing at the staff around, he began to ask, “Who is the action director? I heard that someone wants to compete with us. Come out!”

“I’m the action director of this movie!”

As soon as He Gaoming finished speaking, an old man, who was hale and hearty with a thin face, appeared in a Tang suit.

Looking from distance, one could tell that the old man had short gray hair. Although he looked old with many wrinkles on his face, he had bright, piercing eyes. He conveyed a sense of authority.

Behind him were several young men.

These young men all looked strong and fit. It was obvious that they were martial arts practitioners.

“You’re the one who wants to compete with me?”

He Gaoming glanced at Eighth Master Li and said, “I don’t bully my elders. How can I compete with you? Tell me!”

Chen Xiaogang frowned at He Gaoming.

“Why is this brat so talkative?” He complained inwardly.

As the director who took the initiative to invite Eighth Master Li, he was naturally on his side.

As far as he was concerned, Eighth Master Li was the best action director in the whole entertainment circle over the years. Otherwise, he would not have gone to invite him in person.

Today, he asked Fang Qiu to come here because he wanted him to know that Eighth Master Li was the best action director and was worthy of his respect.

With this in mind, Chen Xiaogang became even more dissatisfied when he saw He Gaoming provoking Eighth Master Li as soon as he arrived.

At a glance, he could tell that He Gaoming was immature!

He hoped that Eighth Master Li would teach this ignorant boy a lesson.

Fang Qiu stood aside, smiling and waiting to see what would happen next.

“Eighth Master, how do you want to compete?” Chen Xiaogang asked.

“Eighth Master.”

A young man behind Eighth Master Li whispered in his ear. After that, he took a tablet computer from a staff member and handed it to him.

With the tablet computer in hand, Eighth Master Li walked directly to Chen Xiaogang and Fang Qiu. He clicked on a video on the computer and showed it to them. Then he said, “Here are some of the moves I’ve sketched out for your style. Take a look first.”

After that, the video started playing.

Fang Qiu and Chen Xiaogang watched the video and found that it was like a small movie, without wires on actors. The two martial artists working for Eighth Master Li were leaping onto roofs and vaulting over walls in the movie. Their moves were natural, smooth, elegant, and wonderful.

Director Chen Xiaogang’s eyes lit up when he watched the video. It fit his setting for the movie.

“As expected, Eighth Master Li is amazing!” he exclaimed to himself.

He turned to look at Fang Qiu.

“Emm.”

Fang Qiu nodded and looked up.

Judging from the short video, these moves were indeed well designed. The video could surely impress the audience. Those who didn’t know the truth might think it was true.

Seeing that Fang Qiu and Director Chen Xiaogang were watching intently, He Gaoming speedily came forward and took several glances at the video. Then he suddenly smiled disdainfully and said, “It’s just so-so!”

Chen Xiaogang looked a little better after watching the video, but when he heard He Gaoming, his face promptly darkened. He glanced at He Gaoming with dissatisfaction and then turned to look at Fang Qiu, as if to say, “You got me a dumbass, didn’t you?”

Fang Qiu gave a wry smile and also felt that He Gaoming’s words were inappropriate. After all, Eighth Master Li was an elder, so He Gaoming had to show respect to him.

However, even though Fang Qiu had sensed Chen Xiaogang’s gaze, he could only pretend not to have seen it.

On the contrary, He Gaoming was in high spirits.

“You don’t believe me?”

Meeting Director Chen Xiaogang’s eyes, He Gaoming grinned, waved his hand, and said, “If you don’t believe me, you can choose two of my men at will. I’ll ask them to show you what a real expert from Wulin is like!”

He Gaoming’s remarks stung Chen Xiaogang.

But Eighth Master Li’s body trembled and his eyes lit up when he heard that!

Wulin?

Expert?

The more he practiced martial arts, the more he knew.

Of course, he knew that in this era, Wulin still existed. He had dreamed of entering Wulin all his life, but he had never been able to get in, so he admired and envied those from Wulin.

Now when he heard He Gaoming mention Wulin, his heartstrings were pulled again.

“Are these people from Wulin?” He wondered.

Hearing He Gaoming’s words, Chen Xiaogang turned to look at Fang Qiu, only to find that Fang Qiu looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle and did not want to meet his eyes at all.

Helplessly, Director Chen Xiaogang could only casually choose two people from the group that He Gaoming had brought here.

It turned out to be two of the eight people who were with Liang Fen. Their business was to practice the Combined Attack Sword Formation with He Gaoming.

The two of them were not nervous at all. They stepped forward directly, looked at each other, and smiled.

“Well, director.”

One of them asked, “Damage is inevitable. We have no problem performing here, but if we destroy something, do we have to pay for it?”

“No need.”

Chen Xiaogang pursed his lips at once, feeling speechless. He thought to himself, “What can you destroy?

“Do you really think you’re experts in martial arts fiction?”

He did not believe that they could destroy anything here.

“That’s good.”

The two laughed and then stood in the center of the set at the same time, unsheathing their swords.

Of course, the long swords in their hands were not the ancient swords that Fang Qiu had given them. Later, He Gaoming asked Long Qiyun specifically for these swords so no one would catch the eye of others.

He Gaoming used John Doe’s connections to the extreme.

He was so thick-skinned that he would not leave unless Long Qiyun acceded to his demands.

Long Qiyun had no choice but to give him the swords.

“Clang!”

The sound of the long sword coming out of its sheath sounded like the roar of a dragon.

With everyone watching, the two of them instantly began to brandish the long swords in their hands and started a real fight.

The fight between two third-class Martial Superiors was not something fancy that ordinary people could perform. Everyone was deeply attracted by it at a glance.

“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh.” It had its own sound effects.

There were also flashes of sword light.

The two men brandished their long swords and made beautiful shadows in the air. Their movements were swift and fierce.

At first glance, it gave people a sense of tension and excitement.

If one was stabbed, he would die on the spot!

Moreover, in the fight, the two deliberately showed off. Halfway through, they directly began to do something fancy. They flew over the set and went straight to the roof.

Chen Xiaogang’s eyes widened in shock when he saw that!

He looked at Fang Qiu in disbelief and then at He Gaoming. He was so shocked that he couldn’t utter a word.
