Huayu Shen Gongbao

Chapter 8: The Little White Dragon Incident Reappears!

Shen Gongbao wandered around the film set for a while, but couldn't find an opportunity to cause trouble.

After all, once filming begins, everyone is quite busy.

To put it bluntly, he was just a minor character in this extra role, and he didn't have many scenes.

However, Shen Gongbao was not in a hurry. He continued to praise Li Lianjie to people on set and occasionally put down Jackie Chan.

The day passed quickly.

When Xiao Bin left the film crew that evening, he said directly, "Master, I won't be coming tomorrow. I'm planning to go to Qiandao Lake for a while and then go back to school."

Shen Gong enrolled in the Electronic Information Engineering mixed class at Zhejiang University's Chu Kochen Honors College. Everyone in the class was a top student, and many of them went on to pursue postgraduate studies.

Of the four people in his dormitory, three were going to pursue graduate studies, including Xiao Bin.

Only Shen Gongbao's family was relatively poor, and he was eager to go out to work and earn money.

After pursuing his master's degree, Xiao Bin went to the United States to study and worked as a GPU architect at NVIDIA. After returning to China, he and his classmates founded an AR company, which is valued at several billion yuan.

Before Shen Gongbao's sudden rebirth, the company was already close to going public.

Even so, Xiao Bin wasn't among the most outstanding students.

There are just too many top-scoring students and geniuses in China.

Shen Gongbao's idea was simple: he made money by leveraging the advantages of Rebirth Information, and then he invested in his classmates.

These people will become experts in the fields of chips and AI in the future.

Hearing Xiao Bin's words, Li Xue was a little surprised: "Weren't you guys going to take graduation photos together? Why are you leaving so early?"

Xiao Bin shook his head and sighed, "This film crew is a mess, not suitable for me. It's nice to play around for a day, but it gets boring after a while."

Many people tend to apply the filters of film and television works and characters to actors and production teams.

Little did they know that the film crew was a mixed bag of low-class blondies, pretentious young women, and unemployed street urchins—a very vulgar and chaotic place.

Smoking, drinking, team bullying, constant swearing, and backstabbing are all common occurrences on film sets.

It's no wonder that Xiao Bin, an ivory tower academic genius, would find it very difficult to adapt here.

Shen Gongbao said with a smile: "Don't mistake those who are involved in the arts for those who are cultured."

Don't mistake those who perform for those who create art;

Don't mistake someone selling themselves for someone putting on a show.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Bin burst into laughter.

"Yes, yes, yes! You're amazing, Taoist Master! You've hit the nail on the head! How do you understand me so well?"

"I've done some research on it."

In order to stir up trouble, Shen Gongbao chatted with Chen Yi a lot, carefully studied the various things and routines in the crew, and made full preparations.

Xiao Bin left Hengdian that very night, leaving Shen Gongbao and Li Xue to enjoy a sweet getaway together in Hengdian.

The next morning, Shen Gongbao arrived at the film crew on time as usual.

As soon as I arrived on set, Zheng Zhihao from Jackie Chan's Stunt Team came over and said, "There's a fight scene today. You're a member of Brother Jie's action team and you have a role, so get ready quickly."

Upon hearing this, Shen Gongbao's heart skipped a beat—revenge was coming.

He praised Jet Li and belittled Jackie Chan on set, which made the Jackie Chan Stunt Team unhappy. It was inevitable that they would do something to teach him a lesson.

Soon, Shen Gongbao found out what role he was playing.

An extra who gets beaten up.

He had no lines and no clear view of his face; he was simply kicked in the back by the villainous God of War, played by Collin Chou, and then he died instantly.

This is a common tactic used by film crews to discipline people, openly tormenting them under the guise of filming and performance, and calling it dedication.

After listening to Zheng Zhihao's explanation of the play, Shen Gongbao made a few ineffective protests and then went to change clothes and wait for his turn.

It wasn't until 4 p.m. that they filmed his scene.

The previous scene was a fight between Jackie Chan and Jet Li, and everyone was there at that moment.

Taking the opportunity, Shen Gongbao said, "I have no experience filming action scenes. What if I get injured?"

Upon hearing this, the members of Jackie Chan's stunt team laughed.

Zheng Zhihao patted Shen Gongbao on the shoulder and said sarcastically, "It's normal for stuntmen to get injured. Isn't your idol Brother Jie? Brother Jie goes all out when filming action scenes. Aren't you scared?"

At this point, everyone realized that the Jackie Chan Stunt Team was going to teach Shen Gongbao a lesson.

But no one dared to speak up.

Liu Yifei opened her mouth as if to speak, but was stopped by her mother, Liu Xiaoli.

Shen Gongbao glanced at Li Lianjie, only to find that Li Lianjie was already sitting in a chair drinking tea, completely ignoring him.

For Li Lianjie, Shen Gongbao, though somewhat talented, was just an extra. Making him suffer a little would quell the conflicts within the crew, which was a very worthwhile deal.

Shen Gongbao glanced at Jackie Chan again; the man had a smile on his face, revealing nothing about his thoughts.

It was definitely not his idea to revive the Shenyang Gazette, but given the current situation, Jackie Chan has tacitly approved of it.

Shen Gongbao concluded by saying, "I'll say it again, I've never filmed action scenes before. Any precautions need to be explained to me beforehand. Don't blame me if anything goes wrong!"

"Hahaha, I've said everything I needed to say. Don't worry, we have experience."

"Professor Zou, please be gentle with your leg later, don't scare our top students from Zhejiang University!"

The mockery from the Jackie Chan Stunt Team was jarring, and Shen Gongbao's face turned grim.

Zou Zhaolong said expressionlessly, "Filming is not child's play. For the sake of the filming effect, I will definitely put in my best effort."

The actor who plays Chang Wei is 1.8 meters tall and has a fierce appearance. He is a common villain in Hong Kong films.

Clearly, Chang Wei was also on the side of Jackie Chan's stunt team and wanted to teach Shen Gongbao a lesson.

Hearing him say that, many people looked at Shen Gongbao with concern.

But many more people were gloating.

Who told you to show off yesterday? You deserve to suffer today.

Shen Gongbao sighed and began his performance.

This action scene involves more than a dozen actors, and Zou Zhaolong must defeat them all, showcasing the formidable fighting power of the Jade Emperor.

Chang Wei has excellent action skills, and the filming went very smoothly.

When he reached Shen Gongbao, he took a deep breath, used his thigh and waist to generate power, and delivered a powerful whip kick to Shen Gongbao's back.

At this moment, Shen Gongbao should have fallen down, but he seemed to be stunned and stood frozen in place. He not only took the kick head-on, but also instinctively pushed backward with all his might.

Boom! ! !

A sound of something hard hitting something rang out, followed by a cracking sound, as if something had broken.

Then came Zhou Zhaolong's painful screams.

The tough guy was seen rolling on the ground, clutching his leg, his face pale and his expression pained.

It looks like the injury is quite serious; it's very likely a fracture.

This happened so fast that everyone was stunned!

Zheng Zhihao sensed something was wrong and was the first to rush forward. He pulled a steel plate from inside Shen Gongbao's clothes.

The entire audience was stunned when they saw the steel plate.

Holy crap Reed!

Is it possible to stuff steel plates into period costumes for action scenes?

Zheng Zhihao shouted, "Are you out of your mind?! You son of a bitch! How could there be a steel plate in your clothes?! This is murder!!!"

Shen Gongbao said in a serious tone, "Didn't I just say that I've never filmed action scenes before, so I don't know!"

I asked you to go over the scenes with me and explain the important points clearly. You just explained everything clearly!

You didn't say I couldn't wear a metal plate, did you?

Am I wrong to be afraid of pain and injury, and to protect myself?

Besides, Chang Wei wouldn't have gotten hurt if he hadn't kicked me so hard!

You just said that it's normal for action actors to get injured.

Now that he's in trouble, are you going to blame me, the one who was forced to take the beating?

oh?!!

I understand, I understand!

Hong Kong actors are ganging up on someone! The "Little White Dragon" incident is happening again!
