Starting as the President of a Billionaire Group
Chapter 33 - 33 33 Battle Against the Kung Fu Superstar

33: Chapter 33: Battle Against the Kung Fu Superstar 33: Chapter 33: Battle Against the Kung Fu Superstar Filming is purely Ye Chen’s hobby.

In his past life, his dream was to become a film and television star.

Unfortunately, his abilities didn’t allow for it, but now with the system’s help, he naturally wants to fulfill this dream.

The next day, Jiang Chen followed Zhang Mou to another crew in Hengdian.

“Old Xu, I brought you someone with superb acting skills, you can let him try out for this role.”

Zhang Mou said with a smile to the person inside the room.

Ye Chen looked inside the room and saw three people seated.

One was a middle-aged man, another was a spirited young man, and the last was a beautiful woman.

Handsome, with spirited eyes, Ye Chen immediately recognized Li Lianjie.

The other beauty should be the leading actress.

Xu Ke was explaining the scene to the three of them.

Xu Ke paused for a moment upon seeing Ye Chen.

Then he pulled Zhang Mou aside.

“Director Zhang, this role is very important for my film, why did you find me a rookie?”

This role is a killer, requiring the ruthlessness of an assassin.

The original actor for this role had to withdraw due to injury during filming, so Xu Ke found his old friend Zhang Mou for a replacement.

Ye Chen, although handsome, clearly doesn’t have the assassin’s aura.

“Rookie?

Old Xu, I’m telling you he’s the best actor I’ve ever seen, do you believe it?” Zhang Mou had predicted Xu Ke’s reaction.

“I don’t believe it.

Is his acting better than Li Lianjie’s?” Xu Ke replied disdainfully.

Zhang Mou laughed, “You’ll know if you give him a try.”

Xu Ke nodded, “Alright, let’s have him try the scene.

Old Zhang, you know my standards.

If he doesn’t meet them, I won’t use him.”

Zhang Mou said, “Don’t be so difficult, Ye Chen is a gem to me.

If my film wasn’t about to wrap up, would I even lend him to you?”

…

At this moment, in the room, Li Lianjie was also chatting with Ye Chen.

It surprised Ye Chen that even though Li Lianjie was a kung fu superstar, he didn’t put on any airs.

“Little brother, have you filmed before?”

“Just finished one, this should be the second.”

“Second film?” Li Lianjie was taken aback.

“Have you done any kung fu films?” Li Lianjie continued to ask.

“No, this is my first time in a kung fu film, I hope Teacher Li can give me some pointers.”

“Oh!” Disappointment was evident in Li Lianjie’s eyes.

No wonder, as a top star, Li Lianjie collaborates with fellow top actors.

He wasn’t looking down on newcomers, but was worried about the film’s quality being affected.

The beauty hadn’t spoken, but her beautiful eyes were constantly observing Ye Chen.

“The little brother is so handsome.”

“Lianjie indeed is very handsome, but next to Ye Chen, he pales a bit.”

“Nice to meet you, handsome man, my name is Zhong Lili.”

“Hello Sister Lili,” Ye Chen said with a smile.

“Haha, good luck, I look forward to working with you.” Zhong Lili laughed.

“Uh-huh!” Ye Chen nodded.

At this time, Zhang Mou and Xu Ke entered the room.

Xu Ke smiled, “Lianjie, spar with this young brother, take it easy.”

“Alright.” Li Lianjie stood up.

Xu Ke’s intention was clear, to let Li Lianjie spar with Ye Chen; if it didn’t work out, it would at least save face for Zhang Mou.

“Ye Chen, you’re playing an assassin in this film, and Lianjie is a bodyguard!”

Xu Ke briefly explained the scene to Ye Chen.

Ye Chen was stunned for a moment, wasn’t this the “Hua Country Bodyguard” from the past life?

A quick look at the script confirmed it was indeed that name.

“Got it.”

“Teacher Li, please give me some guidance.” Ye Chen cupped his hands and smiled.

“You’re too kind!” Li Lianjie humbly returned the gesture.

“Ding, Assassin’s Aura activated +9999!”

“Ding, King of Action +9999!”

Li Lianjie looked at Ye Chen, his expression suddenly changed.

Just now, Ye Chen had a gentle demeanor, but now his eyes were filled with intense killing intent.

Standing before him, Li Lianjie actually felt a chill.

Not only Li Lianjie, but even Xu Ke and Zhang Mou’s expressions changed.

Especially Zhang Mou was shocked.

Many actors have certain specialties, like some are suited to play emperors, some domineering CEOs, and some villains.

Zhang Mou didn’t expect Ye Chen to portray an assassin so realistically.

Xu Ke’s eyes brightened, as a top director, his judgment was sharp.

From just one look, he could tell Ye Chen’s acting was far from novice level.

“Teacher Li, be careful.”

Ye Chen finished speaking and extended his hand, reaching for Li Lianjie’s right shoulder.

Li Lianjie’s eyes sharpened, blocking and deflecting Ye Chen’s arm with his right hand!

Clap clap clap!

The two figures tangled together.

Li Lianjie is famous for his dashing martial arts moves on screen, and his expressions and actions have captivated countless girls.

However, Ye Chen’s performance was on par with Li Lianjie.

His punches were as fast as lightning, and his kicks were clean and crisp.

Li Lianjie’s attack was fierce, but Ye Chen defended and countered, executing his moves skillfully and beautifully.

With his cool expressions, Zhong Lili was instantly captivated.

Zhang Mou was also stunned; he hadn’t expected Ye Chen’s martial arts skills to be so impressive.

Ye Chen’s fighting was so neat and sharp that without a foundation in martial arts, it would be impossible to have such an exciting duel with Li Lianjie.

Xu Ke’s eyes were filled with excitement.

This was exactly the feeling he wanted.

Ye Chen’s eyes carried a ferocity, with an aura of killing intent.

It’s very difficult to portray this feeling without impressive acting skills.

More admirably, Ye Chen’s skills were on par with Li Lianjie’s.

“Stop!”

Following Xu Ke’s command, Ye Chen and Li Lianjie ceased their movements.

“Thank you, Teacher Li, for the guidance.” Ye Chen cupped his hands towards Li Lianjie.

Li Lianjie praised, “Xiaoye, your kung fu is pretty good.”

Zhong Lili excitedly said, “Ye Chen, your moves just now were too cool.

Brother Lianjie seldom praises others’ kung fu.”

Young people these days rarely can endure hardships; most martial scenes rely on stunt doubles and special effects.

There are too few actors who can fight for real.

Xu Ke stood up, “Not bad, Ye Chen, this is the style I want.

The role is yours.”

“Thank you, Director Xu.” Ye Chen expressed his gratitude.

Li Lianjie smiled, “Little Chen, let’s run through our scenes, let’s film this today.”

“No problem, but Teacher Li, is there an injury on your right shoulder?” Ye Chen suddenly asked.

Li Lianjie was stunned for a moment before nodding, “Indeed, I injured my right arm some time ago while filming, so I don’t dare to exert much force.”

Ye Chen said, “I know some massage techniques, I should be able to help alleviate it.”

“Really?” The pain in his right shoulder had been troubling him for a long time, but he had to endure it for filming.

Ye Chen had Li Lianjie sit on the sofa, and with his hands on the Jianjing and Tianzong acupoints, he began to massage.

Li Lianjie felt invigorated.

“Xiaoye, your massage technique is amazing.

I actually feel no pain in my right shoulder now.”

Li Lianjie said excitedly.

“Haha, as long as it works, now you can give your best during filming.”

Ye Chen understood Li Lianjie’s status in the entertainment industry, and befriending someone like him would bring many benefits!
