Chapter 208 Collecting protection money?

"Crack!"

Chen Jiashang nodded with satisfaction:
"Next game, Bai Zhi is in good shape, keep it up..."

In this way, the film officially entered the stage of rapid shooting.

However, there were not many scenes scheduled for the first day, and the crew disbanded around six in the evening.

However, the weather in Beijing in mid-to-late June was quite hot.

Everyone had to wear ancient costumes for the shoot, which was not a pleasant experience.

Du Sheng and Zhang Baizhi were already sweating all over, and their hair was wet.

As for Fan Bingbing who was filming in another group, her mother came here for a trip. After the filming, she said hello to Du Sheng and went shopping with her mother.

This surprised Du Sheng a little.

Not only did the two women not make a fuss, they even tried to avoid him on purpose.

This also thwarted his plan to bring the two women together and give them a good beating.

"Aaron, where are you going again?"

At this time, Zhang Baizhi, who had just changed her clothes, shouted angrily at a young man.

The young man had a touch of white hair on his head, and he was the artist who played Jiang Ping, one of the Four Rats.

Du Sheng turned his head and just smiled when he saw this.

As expected, this person is Zhang Haolong, Zhang Baizhi's younger brother, who was born on the same day as Zhang Baizhi.

"Brother Fei said that the bar street here is very unique, so of course I have to go check it out."

Zhang Haolong was not afraid of his elder sister at all. Instead, he turned his head and winked at Du Sheng:

"Will you go, brother-in-law? I heard there's a girl group coming to perform in Korea..."

But before he could finish his words, he was hit by a ball of paper.

Seeing that the angry Zhang Baizhi was about to throw something, Zhang Haolong quickly got into the car and urged Brother Fei to drive quickly.

Du Sheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and pulled the woman back:

"Forget it. He's such a big guy, and there are so many people going. Nothing will happen."

In terms of maturity, men do mature later than women under normal circumstances.

Moreover, Zhang Baizhi has a tendency to be a brother-supporting demon. The stricter she is with him, the more he resists.

It's a dead loop.

"I'm so pissed! This bastard has never made any progress."

Zhang Baizhi was so angry that her chest was heaving, but she still felt unsatisfied and said:

"Next time, don't let him make a guest appearance no matter what, so as to save you the trouble!"

It was actually her who asked for Zhang Haolong to join the group this time.

The truth is that this younger brother is a hopeless case. Not only does he not want to study, but he also follows his father's example and hangs out with those gang members every day. We can't just ignore him.

"Doesn't he like to learn boxing?"

Du Sheng seemed to be pointing to something and said:

"As long as you can bear it, I will ask his adoptive father to take him back to the countryside to practice in a few days. I guarantee that he won't even have the thought of fooling around."

Some time ago, his adoptive father had already accepted two cousins ​​from his hometown, Huang Yao and Huang Ping, as apprentices, so he didn't need this one.

If you follow Huang Deli's training method, sweating profusely and trembling all over are the least of your worries, and you will be guaranteed to fall asleep as soon as night falls.

Zhang Baizhi hesitated for a moment and said through gritted teeth:

"Then let Uncle Huang train you so that you don't cause trouble everywhere."

She really didn't want her younger brother to follow in their father's footsteps. That would really piss her off to death.

Last year, her father was instigated by gang members to come out again, and brought a group of young people to collect protection fees.

There is really no peace of mind.

At this point, she suddenly remembered something and asked:

"But with his lazy habits, he gave up after just a few days of study. Do you have any way to discipline him?"

Du Sheng smiled slightly and said:
"Don't worry, he will learn willingly."

Zhang Baizhi didn't understand at first, but when she was about to leave the set, her eyes lit up:
"Aaron has come to you twice before with excuses. Could it be that he wants you to take him to Neon to watch a boxing match next week?"

Seeing the man smile and nod, she finally understood why he was so confident.

This was indeed Zhang Haolong's biggest hobby, and he had begged her many times before to tell Du Sheng about it.

Seeing that his sister was indifferent, he directly used his rogue tactics, not only showing his courtesy to Du Sheng but also eagerly calling him brother-in-law...

Zhang Baizhi warned him not to make random connections, but Zhang Haolong kept shouting, which made her really tired.

If Du Sheng wasn't reliable, I'm afraid the media reports would be all over the place.

Now that she knew that the man had a way to control her younger brother, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

While chatting and laughing, the two put on masks and sunglasses and walked out of the film and television base.

“What…what’s going on?!”

When they reached the corner diagonally opposite the parking lot, Zhang Baizhi suddenly pointed at two local dogs playing glue on the side of the road and exclaimed in surprise.

Du Sheng looked at the pictures that connected from beginning to end and couldn't help but smile.

A group of children living near the film and television base picked up stones and kept throwing them for fun. Although the two dogs were scared and ran around, they remained connected head to tail and did not separate.

Zhang Baizhi had rarely seen such a scene in Hong Kong and was so surprised that her mouth was wide open.

"How can we be inseparable..."

Seeing that people around him were looking at her strangely, Du Sheng just hugged her and left.

Even after getting in the car, Zhang Baizhi still couldn't figure it out.

Seeing her unsatisfied thirst for knowledge, Du Sheng said with a smile:

"Are you curious?"

There is a saying that practice makes perfect. How do you know if you don’t try?

He is still very rigorous when it comes to teaching.

Zhang Baizhi knew something was wrong the moment she saw his expression, but she still couldn't help but be curious:

"Tell me."

"It's mainly about the feeling of excitement, which can't be expressed by words."

Du Sheng whispered in her ear with a smile:

"Well, let's find an opportunity to experiment..." Zhang Baizhi's pretty face suddenly flushed, and she said angrily:

"What kind of imagination do you have? It's too outrageous!"

But to be honest, she was inexplicably a little excited and expectant.

Du Sheng skillfully drove the Honda through the bustling city streets and arrived at a quiet suburban estate.

Here is a vast date forest, it feels like driving into a paradise.

He chose a lush date tree as his parking spot. It was surrounded by lush green vegetation and looked full of vitality.

After coming to a complete stop, the vehicle began to surge.

"Brother Yi, look at that car. It's been shaking for about half an hour, right?"

Not far away, a girl pointed at the Honda curiously and muttered:

"If it were you who was standing on one leg like this, how long do you think you could last?"

The manor is open to the public today, and Brother Yi specially brought the girl he met in the bar last night here to play.

As a bar crane operator, he naturally knew what it meant when the vehicle shook so much.

This is simply a small cart pulling a big horse, it's so cool!

He originally wanted to play some ups and downs with this girl, but when he saw the car continued to shake, he couldn't help but feel a little inferior.

Ten minutes, twenty minutes, forty minutes passed...

“It hasn’t stopped yet?”

Brother Yi, who had just returned from a trip with his girlfriend, was stunned.

Is this an electric motor?
He was very worried that if the shaking continued like this, the vehicle would not be able to withstand it.

"Brother Yi, you haven't answered my previous question yet."

Hearing the girl bring up the past, Brother Yi smiled awkwardly and answered vaguely:

"Well... I should be able to hang around for about ten minutes."

"Ten minutes? That's quite a long time."

The girl looked at him in surprise.

"This... isn't too short for you?"

A barely perceptible hint of joy flashed across Yi Ge's face.

"Hehe, that's weird!"

The girl winked mischievously.

"..."

Yi Ge was about to answer, but was interrupted by the sudden sound of an engine.

It turned out that the Honda stopped shaking and disappeared from their complicated sight after a moment.

When Du Sheng and his companions returned to the hotel, they happened to see people who had gone out for fun returning one after another.

"You guys went to Binjiang Road too?"

Wu Yue, who is full of muscle, looks at Zhang Baizhi, who is sweating profusely, with a little curiosity:

"Why didn't I see you guys just now?"

Du Sheng shrugged and said nonchalantly:

"Let's go for a walk. The hotel is too stuffy."

"Hey, it would be nice to take a walk after dinner."

Wu Yue looked at him ambiguously, and suddenly caught a glimpse of something:
"Bai Zhi, why is your face so red? Did you get sunburned?

Hurry up and apply the ointment, otherwise it will be bad if you can’t shoot tomorrow.”

Zhang Baizhi gave Du Sheng a reproachful look, pretending to fan him with her hands and said:

"Ah Sheng's car air conditioner is broken, it's hot, and we were delayed all the way..."

After saying this, she walked back to the suite gracefully, her whole body looking like a broken body.

"Ah Sheng, do you have time? Come and talk about tomorrow's play."

Du Sheng also wanted to go back to his room, but Wang Jing, who was chatting with Chen Jiashang, suddenly waved to him.

In addition to the two of them, there were also Zhuang Wenqiang, the actor who played the King of Xiangyang, and others sitting in the lobby.

Zhuang Wenqiang took out the script and said to Du Sheng who was sitting down:
“Tomorrow we will be filming the scene of breaking into the Xiangyang Palace at night, but Fatty Wang said the atmosphere is not funny enough.

You have a lot of ideas, could you provide some ideas?"

It is impossible for a movie to remain unchanged from preparation to shooting.

Especially Hong Kong film artists, they are used to making changes while rehearsing.

Zhuang Wenqiang has worked with Du Sheng several times and is very familiar with Du Sheng's abilities.

Especially when we were filming "Infernal Affairs 2" last time, the other party suggested changing a few lines, and the mood suddenly became different.

Wang Jing didn't bother to be polite with Du Sheng, pointing to one of the paragraphs and saying:
"The main purpose here is to highlight that you have left the society and found that you can no longer keep up with the times. How do you think it can be changed to make it more dramatic?"

Earlier, the 'Golden-Haired Rat' Bai Yutang was filmed teaching Master Pang's son a lesson. As a veteran crime solver, Zhan Zhao knew that the 'Five Rats' were notorious thieves who robbed the rich and helped the poor, and guessed that there was a high probability that they would take action tonight.

The target is most likely the Pang family.

"To add some comedy, how about this--"

Du Sheng recalled and said thoughtfully:
"At night, Zhan Zhao squatted on the roof of the Pang family's Yage building. The camera first locked on him and sighed to himself:
"I thought I was the only one who guessed it right, but I didn't expect the world is so... "

Before he could finish his words, there was the sound of wheels rolling over the tiles on the roof, and a cart loaded with candied haws passed by the camera.

Zhan Zhao put away his emotion, shook his head and shouted to the merchant: "Give me one string too."

As he finished speaking, the camera zoomed out from near to far, and we saw that there were actually more than a dozen people from the underworld sitting next to Zhan Zhao. It was obvious that they had all guessed it..."

I haven't been out for ten years, but I didn't expect that there are so many masters in the world.

"Good boy, you can do it."

Wang Jing's eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands at Du Sheng:

"This strong contrast is really comedic, it's great!"

As Du Sheng explained the scene through the camera, the scene gradually appeared in his mind, and he couldn't help but admire it:

'Zhan Zhao, who is out of touch with the underworld, comes to life straight away.'
