Chapter 1400 Remember Only Once

“Beep!”

A text message notification came from Fang Qiu’s phone after the call.

He clicked on it.

It turned out to be a ticket’s booking information.

It was a ticket to the film studio in the afternoon!

“Anyway, he won’t let me go.”

Fang Qiu smiled bitterly and looked at the time. It was just the right time to go to the station. He had no choice but to pack up his things. He went to the station by taxi, got the ticket, and hurried to the film studio!

It was already eight o’clock in the evening when he arrived at the film studio.

Director Chen Xiaogang booked a hotel room for Fang Qiu. After resting in it for over an hour, Fang Qiu finally received a call from Chen Xiaogang.

“Director Chen?”

Fang Qiu answered the phone.

“We’re in the hotel restaurant. Come down. Hurry up, and let’s talk.”

Director Chen Xiaogang’s voice rang out.

“How did you know I was in the hotel?”

Fang Qiu was stunned and asked.

“I checked the room number I booked for you. It shows you have checked in.”

Chen Xiaogang said.

“Uh.”

Fang Qiu was stunned and immediately said, “Okay, I’ll come downstairs now.”

They arrived at the restaurant.

Fang Qiu found Director Chen Xiaogang and Zhao Rulong, the scriptwriter, were both there. Immediately, he sat down at the table.

“Director Chen, you’re in such a hurry. How could you do everything so quickly?”

As soon as he sat down, Fang Qiu couldn’t help smiling wryly.

“How can I not do it fast?”

Director Chen Xiaogang sighed and said, “I have no choice. You’re hugely popular, so I must finish shooting your part. After you leave for Murica, no one knows when you’ll return. I can’t suspend the show and stop it from going to the post-production stage. Of course, we can process your part separately. Nowadays, the audience’s eyes are sharp. At a glance, they can tell the drama is pieced together. I won’t be a director irresponsible to the audience.”

“But can we finish shooting in one day?”

Fang Qiu asked.

“You finished shooting the previous movie in one month. This time, you only act as a guest performer. One day is definitely enough.”

Director Chen Xiaogang nodded and said, “Time is limited. No time for much chattering. While we have the meal, Mr. Zhao will tell you the script and the plots you need to shoot.”

“Alright.”

Fang Qiu nodded but didn’t touch his tableware.

“This show is like this.”

The scriptwriter Zhao Rulong said, “This drama is the sequel after our blockbuster ‘Yang Yizhi.’ After Yang Yizhi left Zhu Zhangyuan, he accepted an apprentice a little older than him. The whole drama is about his disciple.”

Fang Qiu heard it.

He was a little taken aback.

He didn’t expect Director Chen Xiaogang to shoot from this way.

Yang Yizhi was the focus of attention. Since the audience had a good impression of Yang Yizhi, they would certainly like his disciple, who was very close to him. But could this plan work? It depended on the quality of the whole online drama.

“You will still play Yang Yizhi in this drama.”

Zhao Rulong continued, “Your main task is to teach your apprentice.”

“Understood.”

Fang Qiu nodded with understanding.

He might not know how to act in other scenes, but he had done many things like teaching. He was a good teacher, whether it was about Chinese Medicine or kung fu. Thus, when he heard this, Fang Qiu felt a little relieved.

“Alas, I wanted to invite He Gaoming’s team to do the action direction of this online drama, but he refused me, saying he was busy. That was a surprise.”

Director Chen Xiaogang smiled bitterly and said, “We have no choice. Eighth Master doesn’t do online dramas. Ultimately, we could only find an ordinary action direction team.”

“How ordinary is it?”

Fang Qiu asked.

“Actually, it’s not that ordinary.”

Director Chen Xiaogang shook his head and said, “It’s a top-notch team in the online drama industry. Yet, it’s far inferior to He Gaoming’s team. How about you inviting them for me?”

“Forget it.”

Fang Qiu shook his head and said helplessly, “He Gaoming’s team just came to have fun. They agreed to my invitation because they thought it would be interesting. Last time, they had enough fun. No longer curious about film shooting, they won’t do the job no matter how much money they can get.”

Indeed…

He Gaoming and the others were in no mood to take over this job.

They did the action direction back then because they were short of money. Were they badly in need of money now?

Each of them was now super rich with money to burn. Why would they waste their time earning more money?

“Alas.”

Director Chen Xiaogang shook his head with a wry smile.

After dinner…

At 10 o’clock in the evening…

Director Chen Xiaogang brought Fang Qiu to their temporary shooting site. The team, fully prepared, put on makeup for Fang Qiu on the spot.

He transformed into Yang Yizhi again!

Then, he began practicing movements with everyone on the team.

The first plot happened in the first scene of the whole online drama. Chen Youliang’s subordinates had been reduced to bandits, and Yang Yizhi saw them burning, killing, and looting.

Thus, he killed!

Before they tried martial arts moves…

Zhao Rulong, the scriptwriter, came to explain the plot in person. Even Director Chen Xiaogang was standing aside and watching. Occasionally, he would stand out and instruct them how to act.

After Zhao Rulong finished telling the story…

A middle-aged man walked up.

The man was in a martial arts suit, not tall but very strong. Anyone could tell at a glance that he was powerful.

“Fang Qiu.”

The man stepped forward and went straight to Fang Qiu. Though Fang Qiu was a star, he didn’t look timid before him. After a glance at Fang Qiu, he said, “I’m the martial arts guide of this online drama. You can call me Third Brother.”

“Mm?”

Fang Qiu laughed.

“I heard you knew some martial arts. I also saw a video of you fighting against more than 20 gangsters alone online. You seem a good fighter?” The middle-aged man who claimed to be Third Brother glanced at Fang Qiu and asked with a bit of contempt.

“It’s okay. I’ll practice kung fu if there’s any chance.” Fang Qiu replied with a smile.

“Mm.” Third Brother nodded and said, “I’ve designed some movements about this plot. Watch carefully.”

With this…

He waved his hand at a few fighting actors and went straight up to show his skills.

A set of martial arts movements was completed.

“Have you remembered it?”

Third Brother asked.

“Yes.”

Fang Qiu nodded.

“Gee?”

Third Brother cocked his eyebrows and asked, “Are you sure? I meticulously designed these moves. How can you remember all of them so easily?”

“Come on. Let me demonstrate this set.”

Fang Qiu called these fighting actors and stepped forward. By cooperating with them, he smoothly displayed all the skills and tricks planned by him.

He seemed to have demonstrated them more fluently than Third Brother.

Those who acted as Fang Qiu’s opponents could hardly stand his attacks!

After Fang Qiu finished playing this set…

Third Brother couldn’t believe his eyes and played another set to let Fang Qiu learn it on the spot.

As a result…

The more he taught, the more astonished he became.

Those martial arts specialists acted as bandits. Even before they entirely memorized their moves, Fang Qiu remembered all his movements after watching them once.

This situation was quite surprising.

Third Brother was utterly startled.

At first, he looked down on Fang Qiu. It turned out that Fang Qiu was no worse than him regarding kung fu. Honestly, he was much better.

His opinions toward Fang Qiu completely changed.

When he looked at Fang Qiu, his eyes were full of respect.

“Director.”

After teaching Fang Qiu all the moves, Third Brother ran straight to Director Chen Xiaogang. With a wry smile, he exclaimed, “I think you’d better let Fang Qiu be the leading role. It would be great! It can save me a lot of trouble. More importantly, he can perfectly demonstrate these kung fu moves!”

“That was what I thought. But…”

Director Chen Xiaogang gave a wry smile.

“If Fang Qiu is willing to be the main performer, who can take his place?”

…

The next day…

The shooting officially began.

“Fang Qiu, these are the scenes we’re going to shoot today.”

The script was sorted out last night. Director Chen Xiaogang handed it over to Fang Qiu and said, “Let’s shoot each part according to the script.”

“Gee?”

With a closer look at the script, Fang Qiu found all his parts were connected. After all, he was just a guest performer. There were only one or two independent scenes.

“Well, let’s film the two independent scenes separately. Everyone should be prepared to film them. Let’s first finish all the connected scenes in one go.”

After reading the script, Fang Qiu suggested.

“Alright.”

Director Chen Xiaogang immediately nodded in agreement.

He had this idea. It was just that the shooting this time came as a total surprise. In his mind, Fang Qiu might not get familiar with his work quickly. Therefore, he took the initiative to say they would shoot these parts individually.

Unexpectedly…

Fang Qiu proposed to finish them in one go.

This was exactly what he wanted.

But nearly them…

Those kong fu actors all raised their eyebrows.

“Get the job done in one go?

“How can they make that?

“Could Fang Qiu finish all the moves without interruption?

“After all, these are fighting plots. If anything goes wrong, we must start all over again!”

All the kung fu actors were a little scared.

As professionals, they could accomplish each job at a stretch according to the requirements. However, they seriously doubted if Fang Qiu could do it. If he couldn’t, they hoped Fang Qiu didn’t brag only to be impressive. After all, there wouldn’t be a big problem if he completed his parts one by one. This way, all of them could easily fulfill their tasks.

“Director, will we finish the fighting moves in a single shot?”

Third Brother walked up to him and asked.

“Don’t worry. As long as kung fu actors under your charge can do it, we can complete the fight in one shot!”

He patted Third Elder Brother on the shoulder with a smile and said confidently.

When Elder Brother heard his confident answer…

It was inappropriate for him to say anything more.

After all, the director spoke the loudest on the shooting site.

“Okay, let’s try it first.”

The shooting officially began.

Just like when he filmed the blockbuster ‘Yang Yizhi,’ Fang Qiu didn’t make any mistakes. All tricks and movements were perfectly displayed. On the contrary, those kung fu actors made some small mistakes.

Well…

The mistakes were insignificant. Since they were not the protagonists, the camera quickly switched between them. In the end, their errors did not affect the whole plot.

Finally, the shooting was over.

Director Chen Xiaogang stood up, clapping his hands. Radiant with smiles, he looked at Fang Qiu and said, “Good. Not bad. Your acting skills are much better than before. Notably, your movements are just right for the movie.”

Third Brother also came over. He gave Fang Qiu a thumbs-up and praised, “Awesome!”

The rest of the people also applauded.

For a time…

There came a burst of spontaneous applause. Everyone looked at Fang Qiu with admiration in their eyes!
