Chapter 191: Hey bro, you're more manly and handsome than before!

Director Lin!

As soon as Lin Mo arrived, the crew and actors warmly greeted him.

Likewise, Luo Kai and Wang Cheng also saw him and hurried over, panting.

"Boss!"

Seeing this, Lin Mo smiled and patted their shoulders, saying, "Don't rush, don't rush."

Then he asked again, "How are the preparations over there?"

Luo Kai quickly replied, "Boss, everything's almost ready; we can start shooting officially tomorrow!"

Wang Cheng also quickly nodded in agreement.

"Pretty good, pretty good!" Lin Mo nodded satisfactorily.

After a few words, Wu Jing, Zhang Yixing, and Wu Gang also heard that Lin Mo had arrived and rushed over.

As main creators, their treatment was naturally not bad; they each had their own lounge where they could look at the script and such.

After all, it's already June, and the weather is starting to get warm.

"Brother Jing, you and Teacher Wu Gang, since returning home, your complexions have become much rosier!"

Lin Mo teased them with a smile.

Upon hearing this, both Wu Jing and Wu Gang laughed.

It was obvious they understood what Lin Mo meant.

Only Zhang Yixing didn't get it.

"Director Lin, domestic is definitely better than abroad, this air, and this environment..." Zhang Yixing said.

As a result, Lin Mo and the three of them couldn't help but laugh.

Luo Kai and Wang Cheng beside them also laughed along.

Lin Mo patted Zhang Yixing on the shoulder, said nothing, and prepared to inspect the filming site.

Zhang Yixing was left a bit confused, like a monk who can't figure things out.

"Yixing, you're still too young and too naive!" Wu Jing patted Zhang Yixing's shoulder and said.

"Huh?"

Zhang Yixing looked utterly bewildered.

Meanwhile.

Online.

Morning Light Media's official account updated its dynamics again.

This is a set of photos.

Exactly, these are photos of various tanks and armored vehicles from the Wolf Warrior film crew!

Wu Jing, Zhang Yixing, Wu Gang, and some actors' group photo.

When this photo was released, it left netizens stunned.

"Holy shit!"

"Can anyone tell me if these tanks are real or fake?"

"No way!"

"They must be real, right?"

"Wasn't there talk before that Director Lin collaborated with the military region? These must have been provided by the military!"

"Director Lin, awesome!"

"Where is the Wolf Warrior film crew shooting on location now?"

"Looks like Zhangjiakou..."

Netizens chattered on endlessly.

In the coming days.

Basically, they were filming large-scale battle scenes.

As well as the fight scenes between Wu Jing and the movie's villain.

Speaking of this villain.

He still has some fame in Hollywood.

Frank Grillo.

His most famous role is the antagonist Crossbones in Captain America: The First Avenger, with not much screen time, the kind where you only notice his face, and his pay isn't high either.

Frank had never heard of Lin Mo's name before.

After all, Lin Mo is basically unknown abroad.

But...

When Frank met J, that is, Cheng Long's older brother.

Only then did he realize that Director Lin Mo is definitely not ordinary.

On set.

The two martial arts instructors from the Cheng Family School were circling with Wu Jing and Frank, sitting on the ground spreading out the script, which had various action notes and combat routes drawn on it.

Their discussion was completely immersed in how to present the most realistic and shocking battle scenes.

Frank is also a tough guy.

In Hollywood, there are plenty of Chinese martial arts instructors.

Moreover, he has collaborated with Yang Ziqiong on a film.

Titled "Leadership Standard," it contains plenty of action fight scenes.

"Jing Ge, in this scene, the Leng Feng you're playing has to jump off this high platform and then roll to land…"

"We have to make sure this move is both realistic and safe, so we need to use special rigging and cushioning pads."

Li Zhongzhi spoke while gesturing.

Wu Jing nodded after hearing it; he understood naturally.

Then Li Zhongzhi repeated it in English to Frank.

Frank also said it was fine.

And over here.

Lin Mo was negotiating with the camera crew, mainly telling them how to handle the shots and how to film.

These cameramen have been growing with me since Charlotte's Trouble.

So, after Lin Mo said it briefly, they understood.

After everything was settled.

Lin Mo called Wu Jing again, and Frank confirmed once more; both said it was fine and they could start filming!

Thus.

The fight scene was ready to roll.

Then, with Lin Mo's shout of "Action!"

the two quickly got into character.

Wu Jing's portrayal of Leng Feng had eyes sharp as a blade.

Frank's villain had muscles hidden beneath the bodysuit, already poised to strike.

"Bang!" a huge sound rang out as the two landed simultaneously, then quickly rolled to absorb the impact.

Then they bounced up almost at the same time, charging at each other again.

Close‑quarters combat began!

You throw a punch, I throw a punch; you kick, I kick.

Their fight had no flashy moves, just a plain, ordinary brawl.

This kind of fight is the most realistic.

And over here.

Lin Mo sat at the director's station, his eyes fixed on the monitor's footage.

Suddenly, Lin Mo shouted into his earpiece, "Zoom the camera in a bit more!"

Then.

The next second, the cameraman gave a close‑up of their faces; Lin Mo needed to see their expressions clearly, to capture the changes in their eyes.

The fight sequence lasted a little over a minute before ending.

"Click!" Lin Mo shouted, "Save one!"

Even though they fought so fiercely, it didn't cause any real injury; they're all stunt actors and naturally know how to absorb impact.

The scene was shot over a full four days.

It's not that Lin Mo pursues perfection; this fight segment is crucial to the film and cannot be sloppy.

These days exhausted the two, but when they saw the perfect shots, they felt it was all worth it!

That day.

Three friends arrived from the War Wolf crew!

Jiang Wen Laoge, Feng Dao, and Han San Ye.

Although Han Canping is the producer of War Wolf, he doesn't need to be on set all the time.

Especially when abroad, Han San Ye is older and not suited for constant travel.

Moreover, he knows his role as producer is mainly to help Lin Mo solve problems.

"Brother, Feng Dao, San Ye!" Lin Mo rushed to greet them as soon as he saw they arrived.

"Little brother, we haven't seen each other for only a few months, and you've changed so much!" Jiang Wen laughed, gave Lin Mo a hug, then examined him closely, "You're more manly than before, and even more handsome!"

After all, having stayed in Feizhou for two months, it'd be strange not to get tanned.

If you're not tanned, something's wrong!

"Yeah, Director Lin, your current look is too manly; I'll take a photo later and post it online, it'll definitely swoon a bunch of little girls!" Feng Xiaogang laughed.

Han Canping patted his shoulder: "Xiao Lin, Xiao Lin, you've worked hard these past few months!"

Hearing that, Lin Mo smiled and waved his hand: "Hey, it's all for the movie!"

After a brief exchange of pleasantries.

Lin Mo also introduced several core crew members of the production to them.

When Jiang Wen Laoge entered, he saw those tanks.

He instantly felt energized.

He hurriedly asked Lin Mo to take a few photos for him.

Including Feng Dao as well.

Sure enough.

Men find it hard to resist the lure of such big toys.
