“Beep, beep, beep…” Three days later, Fang Qiu, who was inspecting around the cultivation base, received a call from He Xue.
“Hello?” Fang Qiu answered the phone.
“The result comes out.” He Xue’s excited voice sounded from the other end of the line. “It’s just like what you said. The medicinal properties of these two drugs are shocking, and there aren’t any harmful substances in them after running the tests of professional organizations. That also means that we can start working now.”
“I’ll leave the rest to you then?” Asked Fang Qiu with a smile.
“Don’t worry and go to make the movie. When you come back, I will definitely settle everything for you,” He Xue said confidently.
“Okay,” Fang Qiu nodded with a smile and said, “if you really settle everything, I will let you take the Holy Flowers Formula for free in the future!”
“It’s a deal!” He Xue grew even more excited.
It was the Holy Flowers Formula.
The efficacy was extraordinary. She even felt that once it was sold in the market, its supply would definitely fall short of demand. At that time, she would not be able to buy it herself even if she wanted to.
As she thought about it, she knew that this benefit was no different from giving her money.
Getting Fang Qiu’s promise was equivalent to getting endless drugs of this formula in her lifetime. How could she not be ecstatic?
“The Story of Hero Yang Yizhi officially announced that the leading man of the movie is Fang Qiu. The movie will officially start shooting in recent days!”
Meanwhile, this news was suddenly released.
As soon as the news came out, it immediately attracted the attention of countless people on the Internet.
“The Story of Hero Yang Yizhi? Fang Qiu?”
“Is this the temporary movie name?”
“I didn’t expect it to be Fang Qiu! I thought they were simply having a meal together before New Year.”
“Does Fang Qiu play Hero Yang Yizhi?”
“Can he do that?”
“Fang Qiu isn’t an actor. Can he play this role well?”
On the Internet, people who saw this news immediately began to discuss it.
They heard some related news before.
At that time, everyone thought that it was hype. Although some people took photos of Fang Qiu having dinner with Director Chen Xiaogang, they did not think that Fang Qiu would really play a role in this movie eventually.
But now, they officially confirmed that Fang Qiu would be the leading man of the movie.
This greatly surprised everyone.
Even Fang Qiu’s fans did not believe that Fang Qiu could truly play a role in this movie. Although they hoped that Fang Qiu could do it, as others said, they also knew that Fang Qiu was not an actor. Although the person he cooperated with was the famous director—Chen Xiaogang, how could Fang Qiu, who had never learned acting before, be qualified to play such a role?
There were even some fans of Fang Qiu who didn’t want him to act in this movie because reputation was of vital importance in today’s entertainment industry!
Without professional acting skills, Fang Qiu would easily attract the ridicule of countless netizens if he acted in such a movie, which would damage Fang Qiu’s reputation.
The most important thing was that Fang Qiu was a Chinese Medicine doctor!
But even so, after learning the news that Fang Qiu would play in the movie, his fans were also overjoyed.
Although they were worried, they also knew that Fang Qiu would never do anything he was not sure of.
That was to say, since Fang Qiu agreed to play in the movie, it meant that he was confident that he could play the role well.
Meanwhile, hearing the news, the famous actors and actresses in the entertainment circle were all speechless.
Most of them specialized in acting. Even if some stars weren’t specialized in acting, they had accumulated a great deal of acting experience.
In terms of playing a role properly, they were surely better than Fang Qiu and more suitable for this role.
At first, when they heard that Fang Qiu would play in the movie, they felt that it was impossible. Considering Chen Xiaogang’s meticulous character, he would never do anything reckless.
They didn’t expect that he had actually decided.
“What the f*ck, is Director Chen Xiaogang crazy? Why did he sign Fang Qiu?”
“It’s Fang Qiu again. Why is it always Fang Qiu?”
“Damn, is such a good chance actually given to him again?”
“Why is everything related to Fang Qiu?”
All the famous actors were angry.
However, at the moment, another piece of breaking news appeared on the Internet!
“According to a reliable source, not only did Fang Qiu get the opportunity to play in the movie about Yang Yizhi but the action direction team of this movie was also recommended by Fang Qiu. It is said that this is one of the requirements of Fang Qiu if they want them to act in the movie. In the end, in order to sign Fang Qiu, Director Chen Xiaogang could only give in.”
As soon as this news came out, there was an uproar on the Internet.
All kinds of comments appeared one after another.
“Really? Did Fang Qiu really do that?”
“Fang Qiu is too snotty, isn’t he? Director Chen Xiaogang only let him play the role because he admires him. He hasn’t learned anything. It’s incredibly lucky for him to be able to play the leading role. How dare he force Director Chen Xiaogang to use the action direction team that he recommended?”
“What I’m curious about is that Fang Qiu actually knows action directors.”
“He is just a student. How many martial arts practitioners can he know?”
“That is right. This is simply a threat. I feel sorry for Director Chen Xiaogang!”
Seeing so many negative comments about Fang Qiu, Fang Qiu’s fans hurriedly took action and began to fight for justice for Fang Qiu.
“Just wait and see. Our Master Fang Qiu will never do anything that he is not sure of. Just wait to be slapped in the face!”
“We believe in Master Fang Qiu.”
“Director Chen Xiaogang is not someone who can be threatened just because he wants to. Besides, Master Fang Qiu is a kind-hearted person. How could he possibly threaten Director Chen Xiaogang? Since Chen Xiaogang agrees, it means that Chen Xiaogang himself agrees to do that. What does that have to do with Fang Qiu?”
Although Fang Qiu’s fans argued strongly on just grounds, they were still a little worried.
After all, there were no routines in martial arts. One had to perform well in movies, which should be in line with the role’s character. Although Fang Qiu knew Qigong, it was different from martial arts. Did Fang Qiu really know martial arts masters?
Action direction was the essence of the whole movie. Once there was a problem with that, the whole movie would be finished.
This was a mug’s game. Why did Fang Qiu do it?
In the film industry, when many action direction teams heard the news, they all began to inquire about it. Eventually, they got inside information from their peers.
“What? Is it Eighth Master Li?”
“Did the action direction team recommended by Fang Qiu replace Eighth Master Li’s team?”
“Eighth Master Li’s team was replaced?”
“Is Chen Xiaogang out of his mind?”
“Fang Qiu is such a snotty man. He has gone too far!”
“He even dared to steal Eighth Master Li’s work. We must teach Fang Qiu a good lesson. Otherwise, the action direction team he recommended will patronize us in the future.”
Soon, numerous action direction teams called Eighth Master Li one after another.
However, they learned from Eighth Master Li that he was the one who volunteered to give up to the team Fang Qiu recommended because Eighth Master Li admitted that he couldn’t compare with them since every member of the action direction team that Fang Qiu recommended was a real Wulin person.
Hearing Eighth Master Li’s words, all the action directors in the industry were shocked.
Since Eighth Master Li had said so, what else could they do? They could only plan to go to the scene in person to see if this action direction team was really as remarkable as Eighth Master Li said!
However, right at this moment, another piece of news came out from a famous gossip Weibo account.
“Shocked! According to a reliable source, to film The Story of Hero Yang Yizhi properly, Director Chen Xiaogang had invited real martial arts experts to be the action directors of this movie. He wanted to show everyone what a real Wulin is like!”
It was posted with the help of the first two pieces of breaking news.
Seeing this news, everyone was stunned.
“What do you mean?”
“The real Wulin?”
“Does Wulin really exist?”
“They said Fang Qiu was the one who recommended the team, then they said Chen Xiaogang was the one who found it. I felt dizzy now.”
“Is this hype?”
All kinds of public opinion rose on the Internet again.
More and more people felt that the spread of all the news was entirely for the sake of hyping the movie.
That was true.
There was nothing wrong with the first two revelations. However, this third one was deliberately made by a marketing company that was working with Director Chen Xiaogang. Their purpose was to hype the movie.
But the company didn’t expect that as soon as the news came out, Director Chen Xiaolian, who was ready to shoot in the movie studio base, immediately received a mysterious phone call.
“Hello?” Chen Xiaogang answered the phone.
“Hello, I’m from the National Security Division.”
A rather serious voice came from the other end of the phone. “Director Chen Xiaogang, isn’t your new movie’s publicity a little too much? Don’t you know that there’s something that you shouldn’t say?”
Security Division?
Chen Xiaogang was dumbfounded.
“What, what do you mean?” Chen Xiaolian was confused.
“I’ll give you ten minutes. Remove all the things related to Wulin immediately. Don’t talk nonsense in the future, or you will have to bear the consequences!”
A cold snort came from the other end of the line.
As soon as he finished speaking, the phone was hung up.
Chen Xiaogang looked at the phone number with a puzzled look on his face. Then, he quickly sent someone to check it out. It turned out that it was really a number from the National Security Division.
Cold sweat broke out all over Chen Xiaogang’s body and he finally came to his senses.
Why wasn’t the real Wulin exposed to the public? Why didn’t ordinary people know about the existence of Wulin at all?
All of this was because of the government!
At the thought of this, Chen Xiaogang was scared out of his wits. He dared not hesitate and quickly made a call to have the marketing company delete everything related to Wulin.
In less than five minutes, the netizens were surprised to find that the trending topic about Wulin actually disappeared. The news related to real Wulin was also gone. No matter how hard they searched, they could not find it.
This situation made all the netizens particularly astonished.
“What’s going on?”
“Why can’t I find it?”
“Is it true? Does Wulin really exist? Otherwise, how could it be blocked?”
“It has been deleted from the Internet so quickly. Maybe the actual Wulin really exists.”
Suddenly, there were all kinds of speculations on the Internet.
But as more and more people joined the discussion of speculation, many people suddenly began to deviate from the topic while speculating.
“My dad can break a tree with one strike of the palm!”
“My grandpa can walk five meters with one step.”
“I’m my humble self. I’m from a Wulin family!”
Soon, various kinds of jokes about Wulin were all over the Internet.
In the blink of an eye, all the people in the country became martial arts experts!
At this time, Fang Qiu had already got into the car to the Yanqi Shooting Base and set off to make a movie.
