Chapter 384 Suddenly
【Two updates today】
In addition to the extra care taken in the sensational aspects of this drama, which makes it feel less abrupt and ensures that it can touch the emotions of the Chinese people, the most important thing about this drama is actually the action scenes.
With the equipment support provided by the Thai military, there is basically no need to worry about the scene. There are enough light and heavy weapons, and there are also scrapped tanks and planes that can be used to shoot the explosion scenes.
As for the special effects, Xu Kun was quite satisfied with the Korean fireworks team, so he planned to use the same people from "Assembly".
As for the martial arts movements, in addition to Zhou Yi's martial arts team, Xu Kun also asked Mr. Zhao Changjun to act as a matchmaker and contacted Donnie Yen's team.
If possible, Xu Kun would certainly like to invite Mr. Yuan Baye, and he also asked Feng Xiaogang to contact him - "Night Banquet" was directed by Mr. Yuan Baye.
But the problem is that Mr. Yuan has no schedule, because Huayi is recently teaming up with Hollywood to make "The Forbidden Kingdom", starring Jackie Chan and Jet Li. Although Xu Kun is now a big name, he is obviously still a little behind in terms of marketability if he wants to compete with these two for the top spots in action movies.
So in the end, they had to settle for the second best and turned to Donnie Yen.
Donnie Yen's martial arts team is also not bad. In 05, "SPL" won the Best Animation Design Award at the Academy Awards, and in 06, "Dragon Tiger Gate" was also shortlisted for the award. It can be said that they are a new force rising in the martial arts circle of Hong Kong Island.
Mr. Zhao Changjun is Donnie Yen's mentor, so Donnie Yen must give him this face.
However, Donnie Yen actually hoped to get the leading role in "Operation Kunpeng", but Xu Kun could not give up his position, so in the end he only invited the martial arts team.
In fact, Donnie Yen himself is one of the core members of this team. Fortunately, Xu Kun and Bao Qiang have also served as martial arts directors. Plus with Zhou Yi's people, there is no need to worry about the team losing its soul after losing Donnie Yen.
This martial arts team is quite arrogant. In the middle of the month, when Xu Kun was filming "Apple", someone suddenly came to him and wanted to test his martial arts skills.
Xu Kun was completely confused at the time. Hearing the plastic Hong Kong Mandarin he was speaking, he thought someone disliked him and wanted to hire someone to hurt him.
Later I found out that it was Donnie Yen's martial arts team who were worried that Xu Kun would not be able to complete the moves they designed, so they sent someone over to inspect the work.
Of course, this is somewhat directed against Xu Kun. Who made him say that there are no good people in the Hong Kong circle?
The final result, of course, was that Xu Kun dealt with the intruder with just three punches and two kicks, proving his own strength - after all, he had forty years of experience plus the benefit of time travel.
Xu Kun plans to use this combat power advantage not only in the movie, but also in publicity.
In September 08, after the Olympics and before the movie was released, he planned to participate in Henan TV's Wulin Feng to show off his skills in martial arts.
When Xu Kun returned home in the evening, besides Jiang Yiyan, Li Xiaolu and Jiang Xin were also there.
Although one of them is open-minded and the other conservative, they both love to play and have fun. They had a good relationship before filming "Struggle", and their relationship became even better after filming "Struggle".
In fact, in addition to suspecting Gan Wei, Xu Kun also suspected that the person was Jiang Xin.
So when he saw Jiang Xin, he smiled and joked, "Didn't you say you wanted to quit the group to keep safe? Why are you here again today?"
Jiang Xin, who was sitting on the sofa with her long legs crossed, rolled her eyes at Xu Kun and said while chewing an apple, "I came with a knife. If you dare to mess with me, I will cut that thing off and then auction it in the group. The highest bidder wins."
Li Xiaolu laughed out loud when she heard this: "What's the use of cutting that thing off? Can we use it to soak in wine?"
"Ah~"
Jiang Xin's hair stood on end when he heard this, and he threw the apple in his hand onto the table: "Can you please stop talking so disgustingly? It makes me unable to eat the apple."
"Then have a banana."
Li Xiaolu took a banana and pretended to stuff it into Jiang Xin's mouth.
Jiang Xin grabbed her with his backhand and quickly pinned her down with the help of the large grid.
Li Xiaolu desperately stretched out a hand, slapped the coffee table and screamed: "Change people, apply for a change!"
"OK OK."
Xu Kun interrupted their daily playfulness, pulled Li Xiaolu aside and asked, "What happened between you and Xiong Naijin? I heard that you two almost had a fight."
When Li Xiaolu heard Xu Kun ask this, she just got up and burst into laughter.
Finally, Jiang Xin couldn't stand it anymore and pulled her up to question her. She told the truth: "She came to me at that time and said she wanted to join us, and asked me to think of a way for her to remember it forever."
"and then?"
"can not say!"
Li Xiaolu laughed and shook her head: "I swore not to tell anyone, otherwise she would have fought with me long ago - if you want to know, you can go ask her, but I don't think she will tell you, after all...hahaha..." As she spoke, she bent over with laughter again.
Xu Kun and Jiang Yiyan looked at each other in bewilderment. Jiang Xin, who had nothing to do with the matter, was the most curious at this moment. So she straightened Li Xiaolu up again and asked, "What's going on? If you can't tell me, can you show me how to do it?"
Li Xiaolu shook her head: "I don't have that ability."
Function?
They are all women, so what different functions do they have?
Could it be...
“Is it related to plastic surgery?”
Li Xiaolu still shook her head vigorously, but looking at her expression, it was obvious that Xu Kun guessed right.
Xu Kun wanted to give more examples to verify his point, but this time Li Xiaolu refused to cooperate. It seemed that the oath she made at that time was quite poisonous.
"Stop talking about this."
Finally, Li Xiaolu took the initiative to change the subject and said, "I heard from Yi Yan that you got two big blond and blue-eyed foreign horses. Where do you keep them? Take them out for a walk!"
It turned out that Jiang Yiyan had called her over.
"They are called big foreign horses, but they are actually not as tall as Jiang Xin." Xu Kun said, "But one of them is quite pretty, a bit like a Barbie doll."
Li Xiaolu became more excited after hearing this, and jumped up and said, "What are we waiting for? Let's go, let's show them what Asian power is tonight."
Jiang Xin didn't say anything, but stood up as well. She had no interest in Xiong Feng, she just wanted to see what a Barbie doll practicing Muay Thai would look like.
"What a hero."
Xu Kun said unhappily: "I'm looking for someone to act, not..."
Li Xiaolu interrupted confidently, "Didn't I ask you to act when I first approached you? But later..."
Xu Kun didn't dare to continue the conversation along this topic, otherwise he would have exposed Aunt Lu.
So he asked Jiang Yiyan to accompany them to the hotel to see the two foreign girls, while he himself prepared to ask Baoqiang to go to the rooftop to exercise.
As the saying goes, "One minute on stage takes ten years of hard work off stage." Since I wasted the morning on Yang Mi, I naturally have to make up for it in the evening.
However, just as he sent Jiang Yiyan and the other two away, he suddenly received a phone call from an unfamiliar number.
There weren't that many harassing calls these days, so Xu Kun picked up the phone casually. Then he heard the person on the other end introduce himself: "Director Xu, I'm Li Xiaoran, whom you met this afternoon. I heard that you went to look at a house today, and you weren't satisfied with the location and floor?"
Is he trying to sell the house to himself?
Xu Kun decisively refused: "I'm sorry, I thought about it on the way back and felt that the house in the Olympic Village was too conspicuous and might not be suitable for me."
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while. Just when Xu Kun was getting impatient, Li Xiaoran whispered, "Director Xu, are you and Sister Lu on good terms?"
Ok? !
Xu Kun immediately became alert and asked in a puzzled manner, "What Sister Lu? The manager of the Olympic Village Sales Office doesn't seem to have the last name Lu, right? Besides, I don't even know her."
The other side fell silent again, but this time it was much shorter. Soon Li Xiaoran said again: "Director Xu, can we meet and talk?"
"is this necessary?"
Xu Kun’s answer was silence for the third time.
Xu Kun's mind raced. Logically speaking, even if Lü Liping revealed her true colors, it shouldn't involve him. So how did Li Xiaoran lock on to him?
Although this might be some kind of test, Xu Kun would not feel at ease if he was not sure about the situation.
So he finally decided to keep the appointment: "How about this, you come to the South Fourth Ring Road first, I'll find a place for us to meet - remember to bring the floor plan of your house, and it would be even better if you have specific photos or videos."
He insisted that it was about buying and selling a house, and deliberately did not say the specific location. His purpose was naturally to confirm first to see whether Li Xiaoran came alone or with someone else.
Although given Li Xiaoran's experience, it stands to reason that she would not become an accomplice to Sun Donghai, but no one can guarantee that something might happen.
