Chapter 105

~7 min read 1,272 words

"It's right here."

Two days later, at Megan's...

"This is the best makeup artist in Hollywood. Originally, you'd have to book her at least three months in advance, but she really likes your 'Bleach,' so she made an exception."

Megan...

"Hello, hello, Mr. Aizen!"

Tony the stylist excitedly shook Xu Feng's hand, his eyes shining.

The pronunciation of "he" and "she" in English is different.

If he hadn't just heard Megan use the word "he."

Xu Feng would never have been able to tell that this Tony stylist with the unique style was a man.

So, fashion is really something that makes people confused, just like the burlap tote bag LV launched a while ago.

Damn, it could actually sell for five figures.

But that's fine; he's not used to men being so enthusiastic toward him.

"Nice to meet you. I'd like to ask you to help me with two styles, the style is mainly..."

Xu Feng immediately described the external images of DIO and Jotaro in "Stardust Crusaders" to Tony in extreme detail.

Afraid that the other party wouldn't be able to achieve the effect he wanted.

Finally, Xu Feng added a very important requirement:

"You absolutely cannot let the audience think these two people are the same person!"

"So it's not the Aizen style..."

Tony was a little disappointed.

Damn, Xu Feng thought, does playing Aizen even need makeup?

I'll just buy a bottle of hair gel and slick my hair back.

Actually, when playing "Phantom Blood," Xu Feng did wear makeup.

His fans stared for several seconds before recognizing that DIO was played by Xu Feng.

Unlike Yan Yikuan, who played Jonathan, he looks more Westernized; people often mistake him for being mixed-race.

Xu Feng's appearance has a bit of that John Lone vibe, belonging to the type that you can tell is Eastern, but also fits Western aesthetics.

Anyway, these foreigners can't appreciate the temperament of Lu Han or the TFBoys.

In the setting, DIO is British, with deep eye sockets, high cheekbones, and thin lips.

And Jotaro is mixed-race, so not much change is needed.

But the most critical problem is that since Xu Feng wants to play both, he absolutely cannot let the audience see at a glance that it's the same person.

But at the same time, he must retain some of Xu Feng's own characteristics.

Otherwise, the fans won't recognize him.

This really tests the makeup artist's skills.

"Do you really want this shade of lipstick?"

Two hours later, Tony looked at the "gay purple" lipstick Xu Feng had personally chosen, his expression becoming increasingly strange.

Even top supermodels find this shade of lipstick hard to pull off.

Let alone a man wearing it.

Not to mention that in the public's impression, why would a man wear lipstick?

"That's right, do it."

Xu Feng said without hesitation.

Five minutes later.

Looking at Xu Feng with his blonde hair spiked up, his facial contours slightly fierce, and his lips painted with deep purple lipstick.

Nazha and Megan nearby were stunned.

Damn... so non-mainstream, but for some reason, there's a strangely eerie charm.

"Still a bit thin."

Xu Feng pinched his arm, which was already much thicker than when he played Light Yagami, and muttered to himself.

Thinking that before filming, he must at least reach the level of Superman.

"Let's do the second style."

Xu Feng sat back down and said.

If his muscle mass weren't still a bit low, he would want to press his index finger to his temple right now, stage a "mind-blowing" scene, and add the line "Soshite toki wa ugokidasu!"

Ahem, but it's a bit embarrassing in front of the girls.

"Mr. Aizen, we charge by the hour, you know." Tony indicated that fans are fans, but the money still has to be collected.

"OK OK OK~"

Mr. Xu indicated that although he is a fan of freebies, he isn't that stingy.

Another two hours passed.

Looking at himself, who leaned more toward an Eastern face compared to the DIO form.

Xu Feng nodded with satisfaction.

As expected of someone who charges by the minute, the skill is real.

"If I hire you as our crew's makeup artist, how much would it cost?"

Xu Feng, in his Jotaro form, stood up and asked.

Half an hour later, Xu Feng got into the car with a face full of displeasure.

"You're too stingy, aren't you? I heard your net worth in China is already in the billions."

Megan said.

"Her asking price is basically the same as Henry Cavill's..."

Xu Feng indicated that no matter how much he earns, his soul as a wage earner never dies.

Spend less where you can.

But he has no choice for this film; he absolutely cannot mess around with the makeup.

The casting for "Stardust Crusaders" was solved in a very unique way.

On the other hand, "Death Note" ended its run.

The conclusion of these two events also meant that Xu Feng had to leave the Lighthouse Nation, this evil capitalist country...

In the end, "Death Note" had a box office of 870 million dollars.

"Batman v Superman," 873 million dollars.

Very regretfully, he didn't manage to overthrow DC's evil rule in the end...

Um, the above paragraph wasn't said by Xu Feng himself; it was forcibly added to Xu Feng by some media outlets in China that love to stir up trouble.

Xu Feng said, "I never said I had to surpass Mr. Wayne."

You have to know that this film's reputation was mixed from the start.

If you brought "The Dark Knight" here, Xu Feng really wouldn't have the confidence.

However, it is generally acknowledged by both the Chinese domestic audience and Western audiences.

In this non-existent duel, Xu Feng won.

The reason is simple: Xu Feng didn't get a single bite of the huge cake that is the Chinese market!

Consequently, a very strange phenomenon has appeared on the Chinese internet.

Everyone is sympathizing with Xu Feng.

Believing that "Death Note" not being released domestically was a very unfair act toward him.

His film should have achieved even greater success.

Many people even ran to the SARFT to suggest that they should introduce Xu Feng's new film.

When Xu Feng heard this news, he was completely dumbfounded.

Can you guys stop messing around?

Are you trying to get me killed?

Although Xu Feng previously bragged that he felt he lost 3 billion in box office.

But in his heart, he didn't feel sorry about it at all.

After all, from the very beginning, he didn't hold any expectations for this film passing domestic censorship.

He doesn't even care, so why are these fans getting all worked up?

It really fits that saying:

Haters just want you to fail, but fans really want you to die.

Helpless, Xu Feng could only release news about his new drama to divert the attention of these hot-headed, "chuunibyou" youths—

The third part of the "JoJo" series, "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders," is ready for production!

However, unlike previous situations.

This time, the comment section wasn't full of cheers; half the people were spewing venom.

[Damn, why isn't it the third season of "Bleach"!?]

[You ran away after stopping the updates, right?]

[What's so good about filming this JoJo thing? I looked it up, it has less than 1 billion global views. Do you know how much "Bleach" has? 20 billion!]

[Damn, the guy above, have you ever watched JoJo? Watch it before saying that!]

[Exactly! JoJo is an excellent work; you're just unwilling to understand it yourself.]

[Fuck you! Why isn't it "Death Note"?!]
