Chapter 108: Hardware needs maintenance, sex scene...
Yuan Jieying was right.
If she wanted to be a director, she wouldn't even need to wait until night.
He Xi can satisfy her right now.
But after thinking about it, I decided against it.
After all, He Xi is an investor in this film.
Every minute the film crew works, it's burning through his own money.
It's impossible to really waste this precious time and money on having Yuen Kit-ying direct.
Even with Yuan Jieying's provocative gaze, alluring eyes, and defiant expression, her little feet began to fidget restlessly...
"Brother Qiang."
He Xi went directly to Liu Weiqiang.
"I injured my back while boxing a while ago, and I suddenly feel a bit uncomfortable."
"I'm going to take a break. You can keep an eye on the crew for now!"
The advantages of having a top-notch assistant director are becoming apparent.
With Liu Weiqiang around, it's not a big problem for He Xi to leave for an hour or two.
Liu Weiqiang also heard about He Xi's trip to Japan to fight in boxing, although rumors circulated that he slapped away the most powerful young fighter in Japan.
However, without seeing the footage, Liu Weiqiang assumed that Lin Di'an and his group were just bragging.
Now that He Xi said he had injured his back, he had no doubts and it reaffirmed his previous judgment.
He said that He Xi, a mere 19-year-old kid, could not possibly defeat a 30-year-old Japanese karate master in an instant.
No, not in the river!
He Xi, who had hidden injuries and needed to rest, seemed much more real.
"Go ahead, leave the crew to me!"
Liu Weiqiang took over the command of the production team with a handsome and composed demeanor.
Yuan Jieying, however, also stood up.
"I studied nursing, so I'll give the director a massage."
Liu Weiqiang waved his hand without turning his head.
"Go ahead, there aren't any scenes for you coming up, so push it out well and don't cause the director any further harm!"
"Uh-huh!"
Yuan Jieying nodded like a chick pecking at rice, pretended to ask her assistant for a first-aid kit, and then went into He Xi's lounge.
"Don't worry, everyone. The director was just injured a few days ago while fighting with the Japanese in Japan."
"It shouldn't be anything serious, it'll be fine soon!"
Liu Wei forced a smile to reassure the rest of the crew.
Upon hearing his words, some newcomers without connections or sources of information, as well as behind-the-scenes personnel who had not yet received the news, immediately perked up their ears.
"The director is fighting against the Japanese in Japan? Did he win?"
"That's right, seven wins out of seven, champion!"
Seeing that everyone was very curious, Liu Weiqiang decided not to rush into work and instead told them a story he had heard and then embellished: He Xi defeating the younger generation of Japanese karate.
In the distance, some people who had also heard the news were quietly explaining it to those around them.
"Let me tell you, Brother Xi is really awesome..."
The entire film crew instantly turned into a tea party to share He Xi's stories from her trip to Japan.
Although it delayed some filming time, it also changed many people's perception of He Xi, making his image, like his height, instantly seem more impressive.
Even some people who originally planned to just coast along on set have quietly changed their minds and attitudes, preparing to be more proactive and dedicated in their work.
We cannot let down the heroes who went to Japan to fight the Japanese invaders.
Yes, many of the older generation of Hong Kong residents experienced or had parents who experienced the War of Resistance against Japan. They were serious about resisting Japan.
In contrast, Taiwan...
While everyone was having a tea party, in the lounge, Yuan Jieying actually started working as a director.
"How was it? Did I do a pretty good job?"
Yuan Jieying wiped the sweat from her forehead and said, as if showing off a treasure.
For the past hour or so, He Xi, the legitimate director, has been completely suppressed and can only talk.
However, Yuan Jieying really did a great job.
"Well done, keep it up!"
Yuan Jieying was filled with pride upon receiving the praise, but her expression quickly cooled down.
"Hmph! I suddenly realized that our situation just now seems to have a scene in your script as well."
"It's the part where the rich kid and his girlfriend are in love!"
"You've already written the script, and then you went to Japan and poached a terrible newcomer."
"You kept your eyes closed for a long time just now, were you imagining it was her?"
"Fine, I knew you had ulterior motives. You brought her back because you're after her big breasts!"
"Men are all the same, I've seen through you!"
Yuan Jieying glanced regretfully at her little Wangzai, then turned to leave.
He Xi immediately frowned and grabbed her.
Anyone who has assembled a computer knows that there is an unconventional and incorrect practice called hot-swapping.
It can easily cause hardware failure or damage.
Therefore, when you want to replace equipment, you must disconnect the power to the hardware and not allow it to continue working.
As a former seasoned fan of matching outfits and a hardware enthusiast, He Xi naturally wouldn't allow Yuan Jieying to make such a mistake.
Another half hour later.
Yuan Jieying realized her mistake in hardware maintenance and tearfully apologized for her erroneous remarks.
She also stated that in the future, she will definitely listen to the director's instructions on set, and will not do anything she is not allowed to do. She will also stop making assumptions about the relationship between the director and the actresses.
At the same time, in a corner of the film crew.
Hamasaki caught Kanno Asami.
"Ms. Asami, what are your thoughts on the director?"
Asami Kanno has just arrived in Hong Kong Island and doesn't understand Cantonese, so she doesn't know what everyone is discussing.
Hamasaki Fu, being the only person present who watched He Xi's karate match from beginning to end, decided to give her a lesson on just how amazing her Xi-sama really is!
After some embellished explanation, Asami Kanno's originally indifferent eyes gradually brightened.
After resting for a while, He Xi returned to the director's seat.
Looking around at the crew, who not only did not slack off because of his departure, but were even more active and dedicated, he saw them.
He was somewhat taken aback.
While I was away, your work efficiency actually improved. Should I... leave?
In the afternoon, He Xi still left the film crew.
It wasn't that I was mentally exhausted and gave up, but rather that I went to [Legend of Fire Cloud].
He has a night scene to film tonight, and he also needs to do martial arts design for Yuan Xiangren. It might be very late tonight.
Working on multiple projects simultaneously is like having two projects run at once; if you want to maintain quality and output on both fronts, you have to put in more time and effort.
In the cast of "Legend of Fire Cloud", He Xi met Yuan Heping again.
"Xi-zai, you look very tired. Running around like this must be exhausting."
Yuan Heping also knew that He Xi had started a play and was the director.
He holds an inclusive and encouraging attitude towards the ambition and drive of young people.
However, he was still somewhat unhappy about He Xi taking on more projects at the same time, so he made a casual joke about it.
"Eighth Master is right, it's really exhausting!"
He Xi nodded with a forced smile.
However, his exhaustion wasn't due to taking on multiple roles simultaneously, but rather due to exploitation...
Uh, being exploited.
Yuan Heping was just saying it casually and didn't really intend to give He Xi a warning, so he immediately waved his hand.
"Okay, go do your makeup."
"Your scene tonight is relatively easy; you can act while lying down."
He Xi raised an eyebrow.
"Acting while lying down?"
Like the father in "Heart Signal," can you lie in bed from beginning to end and even sleep?
Yuan Heping smiled slightly and added another sentence.
"That's right, acting while lying down, it's a sex scene!"
