Chapter 928: 928

Just as Fang Qiu was on his way to Yanqi Shooting Base, the discussion on the Internet became more and more heated. Soon, it attracted the attention of many Wulin people.

“The real Wulin?”

“Does Chen Xiaogang want to show the audience the real Wulin?”

“Are there Wulin people who act in this movie?”

“How can people in Wulin make money in this way? Aren’t they afraid of losing their lives if they become famous?”

“Isn’t there a tacit rule that people in Wulin don’t expose themselves? How dare they do such a conspicuous thing in the name of Wulin?”

Even plenty of Wulin people were confused, not to mention the ordinary people. They didn’t know why someone would act in the film as a Wulin practitioner.

Different from ordinary people, the Wulin people had their own way of inquiring about information. Therefore, as soon as they got the news, most of them began to inquire. What was going on?

As soon as they inquired, they immediately received accurate information.

“The one who participates in Chen Xiaogang’s movie is actually He Gaoming.”

“He Gaoming? He Gaoming from Jiangjing? Is he John Doe’s disciple?”

“That’s strange. Why will it be him?”

“John Doe hasn’t shown up for a long time, but his disciple makes such a commotion. With John Doe’s temper, shouldn’t he keep a low profile?”

“This movie is really interesting. Apart from famous Director Chen Xiaogang, the actors who have participated in it are not only Fang Qiu, but also John Doe’s disciple, who has attracted the attention of countless Wulin people.”

“He Gaoming, John Doe, and Fang Qiu? What’s the relationship between the three?”

“According to the news on the Internet, He Gaoming was recommended to Chen Xiaogang by Fang Qiu, which means that Chen Xiaogang did not find He Gaoming himself. Then what is the relationship between Fang Qiu and He Gaoming? Why did Fang Qiu recommend He Gaoming to Chen Xiaogang?”

All sorts of questions came out.

Some people even wondered if Fang Qiu knew John Doe.

There were so many doubts.

It was inevitable for them to ask around.

Undoubtedly, all the forces in Wulin began to investigate the relationship between Fang Qiu and He Gaoming and why he recommended He Gaoming to Chen Xiaogang.

Also, was He Gaoming really John Doe’s disciple? Why did John Doe never admit it in person?

Also, what was the relationship between Fang Qiu and John Doe?

Soon, they got the news.

“Detective?”

“He Gaoming is a detective. When Fang Qiu was a freshman, he had once hired He Gaoming. I heard that he also helped Fang Qiu donate some money to the poor mountainous area. He might have taken the initiative to tell Fang Qiu that he was Wulin people, so Fang Qiu recommended him to be an action director!”

“According to the current source, Fang Qiu should have nothing to do with John Doe.”

After confirming the information, people of major Wulin sects and forces all breathed a sigh of relief.

It was impossible if they had never suspected that Fang Qiu was John Doe because there were so many connections between Fang Qiu and John Doe.

For example, both of them suddenly emerged in Jiangjing and were at the University of Jiangjing Chinese Medicine. They were about the same age.

Thus, many people in Wulin had thought about it, but they couldn’t be sure and didn’t want to admit it.

If John Doe, who was already so exceptional in Wulin, was also a miracle-working doctor, it would really be hard for other people to live in Wulin.

Fortunately, after the investigation of all the major forces, it was finally confirmed that there was no connection between Fang Qiu and John Doe. The Wulin people could finally rest assured.

“You came.” At the Yanqi Shooting Base, as soon as Fang Qiu arrived, He Gaoming came up to him, threw his arm around Fang Qiu’s shoulder, and said with a laugh, “You’ve made a name for me this time, bro.”

“Those with competence will always be able to rise,” answered Fang Qiu with a smile.

“Yes,” He Gaoming was stunned and then immediately gave Fang Qiu a thumbs-up, saying, “I like what you said, haha!”

“You seem to be very happy,” asked Fang Qiu with a beam.

He had to pretend that he knew the reason why He Gaoming was happy was that he was recommended to be an action director for this film, which attracted a lot of people’s attention. Thus, Fang Qiu acted as if he was curious.

“The fame I told you about has nothing to do with the action direction,” He Gaoming smiled proudly and said, “however, it also has something to do with action direction. I’m Wulin people. You recommended me to do this job, which immediately attracted the attention of the Wulin people. Many people in Wulin began to investigate us, and some even thought you were my master. Haha.”

“What master?” Fang Qiu pretended not to understand and asked, “How can your master be so young like me? Isn’t it too aggrieved for you to be his disciple?”

Although that was what he said, Fang Qiu felt happy in his heart.

He figured out all of this a long time ago.

If people in Wulin wanted to investigate John Doe, the only clue they could find was He Gaoming. It was easy to find out about Fang Qiu from He Gaoming. At that time, it would inevitably raise more doubts and more people to investigate Fang Qiu.

Since the people of Wulin would find out the relationship between Fang Qiu and He Gaoming sooner or later, why not reveal it in advance through Fang Qiu himself?

Fang Qiu believed that Li Ji and the others would take care of everything in secret.

Taking the initiative to expose himself was also one of the reasons why he recommended He Gaoming to be an action director.

“So what if he’s young?” Hearing Fang Qiu’s words, He Gaoming reached out and patted Fang Qiu on the shoulder, saying proudly, “My master is indeed younger than me.”

“If you are a bit powerful like my master, you can do whatever you want in this world!”

Fang Qiu shook his head and chuckled as he heard that.

He pretended that he didn’t believe He Gaoming, but he smiled wryly in his heart.

Director Chen Xiaogang stepped forward and said, “Fang Qiu is here. From today on, our movie will officially begin start shooting. Everything is ready and we are just waiting for you.”

“I usually watch the news. Isn’t there an opening ceremony before the shooting?” Asked Fang Qiu.

“It’s a ceremony,” Director Chen Xiaogang laughed loudly and said, “we need to find a suitable day to have the ceremony. It is not something that we can do whenever we want. We have already found someone to find a good day. The opening ceremony is also finished three days ago.”

Fang Qiu asked, “Did the shooting start three days ago?”

“Yes,” Director Chen Xiaogang nodded his head and said, “in the past three days, we have been filming some minor scenes about the scenery and scenes of the supporting roles. We are just waiting for you to come. Then, we will make another simple opening ceremony for the media.”

“Then I’ll go and do my makeup first.” Fang Qiu smiled awkwardly and immediately walked to the dressing room.

Because Fang Qiu didn’t have an agent team, the makeup team was found by the crew of the movie.

“You can take a look at the script first. Get familiar with this plot that is about to be filmed. The most important thing is to memorize the lines, otherwise, it will take a lot of time and effort.”

Chen Xiaogang handed the script to Fang Qiu.

“Okay,” Fang Qiu nodded, took the script, and immediately opened it. He read it carefully while walking into the dressing room.

Soon, his makeup was done.

Fang Qiu almost finished reading the script.

The scene that was about to be filmed happened in the 25th year of the Zhizheng Dynasty.

The story was that after Zhu Yuanzhang killed Chen Youliang, he attacked Zhang Shicheng in October and captured Tongzhou, Xinghua, Yancheng, Taizhou, Gaoyou, Huaian, Xuzhou, Suzhou, and Zhuzhou county of Anfeng. He drove out the forces of Dongwu from the Jiangbei region.

Then, Zhu Yuanzhang, who got to rule the country, began to travel incognito and observe the people’s life. On the way, he was assassinated by Zhang Shicheng’s men. Later, he fled to the mountain awkwardly and saw a thatched cottage. There, he found a 16-year-old boy carrying a firewood basket on his back, Yang Yizhi.

Seeing that the pursuers had arrived and that the only living person in front of him was a teenager, Zhu Yuanzhang was in despair and thought that he would die soon. However, he did not expect that the teenager would take action…

Before this, Fang Qiu had read the whole script, so it was easy for him to get familiar with it.

Walking out of the dressing room, Fang Qiu was led by a staff member to a temporary film studio.

At the moment, Director Chen Xiaogang was having a meeting with all the actors and actresses on the scene.

As soon as Fang Qiu arrived, he immediately joined the meeting.

Fang Qiu, who was sitting at the conference table, glanced around and found that the actor playing Zhu Yuanzhang was also there.

This was a middle-aged movie star with remarkable acting skills. It was no exaggeration to say that Fang Qiu had been watching him in TV dramas since he was a child.

He was indeed an experienced actor. After dressing up like Zhu Yuanzhang, this sophisticated actor looked dignified even though he didn’t make any expression.

The actor playing Zhang Shicheng, the one playing Shen Wanshan, and others playing the killers were also sitting at the conference table.

Before he sat down, Fang Qiu stood in front of the conference table and greeted the actors on the spot very respectfully. The other actors also smiled and nodded at him.

Of course, as action directors, He Gaoming and the others were also there.

“Director Chen,” The actor, who played Zhu Yuanzhang, asked Chen Xiaogang, “recently, there have been rumors online that the new action direction team you find is from Wulin. Is that true?”

“Baoguo,” Chen Xiaogang smiled wryly and said to Li Baoguo who played the role of Zhu Yuanzhang, “this discussion ends now. Wulin was used to be a gimmick of our publicity. I didn’t expect that we were warned because of it. So, don’t mention it again.”

Li Baoguo shook his head and smiled.

Chen Xiaogang knew that Li Baoguo would not believe him. He understood Li Baoguo’s temper. However, it was not appropriate for him to tell the truth. After all, the higher-ups spoke up.

If it weren’t for the strict supervision from higher-ups, how could no one know that Wulin still existed in this wide world?

While exclaiming, Chen Xiaogang noticed that everyone was staring at him. He raised his eyebrows before revealing another piece of news. With a wry smile, he said, “I received a piece of news. Due to the matter about Wulin, the government wanted to deal with us. They’ve already prepared to ban us. However, for some unknown reason, something stopped them.”

Fang Qiu was stunned as he heard that.

It must be because of him.

Hearing the topic of being banned, everyone was so shocked that they didn’t dare to discuss this topic anymore.

No one wanted to get into trouble.
