the assistant director can’t afford to be careless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s nothing serious.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo smiled, swinging his tarnished silver tiger-head hook and nodding toward Wang Baoqiang: “That extra works hard—I want him standing behind me; the shot will look better.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, the assistant director immediately relaxed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A trivial matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not just Li Luo—even if Guo Feili made this request, he wouldn’t refuse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the assistant director’s call.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Baoqiang trotted over in small steps amid the envious glances of the other extras and was placed in the most camera-friendly position.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The assistant director gave him a few more instructions on what to do next.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tall man watched this scene with bitterness, his grip on the prop sword tightening until veins bulged on the back of his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted to grind his molars to dust.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why him?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I worked just as hard!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why did he get noticed instead of that country bumpkin?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The assistant director’s words drifted vaguely in his ears; Baoqiang’s heart pounded as if it might burst.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He nodded eagerly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the assistant director left, he looked gratefully at Li Luo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The latter now had his hands behind his back, chin slightly raised, as if pondering how to portray the next scene; to Baoqiang, that upright figure seemed to glow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baoqiang couldn’t help clicking his tongue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why didn’t I notice before—this lead actor is really good-looking!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Actors, ready.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scene had already been rehearsed inside the tent; when the assistant director signaled OK, Lai Shuiqing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately waved to begin filming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Senior.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo leapt through the air, entering the frame from outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d planned to cross his tarnished silver tiger-head hook and iron judge’s pen to block, but remembered this was the invincible Dragon-Slaying Blade—he sighed and lowered his hands, coldly eyeing the Golden-Haired Lion King Xie Xun before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Dragon-Slaying Blade swung forward, stopping just short of his neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Aren’t you afraid of death?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jinhai glared fiercely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Senior promised me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo took a deep breath and barked, word by word: “No more killing!!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That was earlier.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sheathed the blade with a slash, then eagerly played with the precious sword, his eyes turning vicious as he glared at the extras: “Now the blade is in my hands—none of you here will live!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that filming had begun, this man was utterly different from his usual mild demeanor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though the Master of a Thousand Faces said his acting was poor—only good at playing Ao Bai and great heroes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or just laughing like an idiot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His performances never came from within.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These remarks carried some teasing from old friends—half-joking, half-serious—but Li Luo believed that for an actor, mastering even one or two types of roles was already success.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to today’s idol stars, Xu Jinhai’s acting was incomparably better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At least the Golden-Haired Lion King standing before him radiated overwhelming pressure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Part of it was also due to his own low cultivation level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the two exchanged lines, Wang Baoqiang, crouching behind Li Luo with his sword planted, was clearly captured by the camera—he swayed unsteadily, feigning a splitting headache.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t get carried away; instead, he acted with great effort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few years ago, this would’ve made a delightful Easter egg.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a few brief lines, Lai Shuiqing nodded in satisfaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Filming continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yin Susu fanned the flames beside them; Zhang Cuishan joined in, goading them—both together lured the Golden-Haired Lion King Xie Xun into the trap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After agreeing on the stakes of the contest, Li Luo walked aside, holding his unusual weapon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A faint smile curled his lips; then he executed a clean front flip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He leapt cleanly out of frame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With mastery of Long Fist, the move was effortless—he didn’t need a stunt double; the camera captured it perfectly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It looked fast, but this scene had been shot intermittently for an hour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were no stone walls near the set; the crew would film the real footage elsewhere—Li Luo only needed to gesture here, suspended by wires, swinging his weapon repeatedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two would be combined in post-production.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this part would be filmed later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After leaping out of frame, he immediately returned to rehearse lines.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jinhai was a veteran actor; Guo Feili was no slouch; Li Luo had memorized his lines inside out. After a few rounds, they finished filming the scene where Xie Xun accepted defeat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sponge pads.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the action director Yuan Bin’s direction, the prop team brought over a large cushion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They placed it behind Li Luo and Guo Feili.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then crouched, supporting it at an angle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Jinhai, extend your finger.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuan Bin removed his cap and fanned away the drifting smoke, gesturing continuously: “Lightly tap twice just above the chest. Then, Li Luo and Feili, react—then fall backward.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Need to practice?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All three shook their heads.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What’s there to practice? It’s a simple routine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Good.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuan Bin signaled the camera to move closer; once they were ready, he waved his arm: “Roll.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jinhai sharply swung his arm, tapping the air twice with his finger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo and Guo Feili made a muffled groan, closed their eyes, and stiffly toppled backward under the lenses of two cameras—one above, one below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two hundred-plus pounds crashed down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Due to differing weights, the thick sponge bounced, tilting the woman’s body sideways.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a soft cry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo smelled perfume rushing toward him, then felt heavy weight land on him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thud~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their heads collided with a dull thump.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He instinctively wrapped his arms around her before grimacing and opening his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Feili also frowned, her head ringing painfully, muttering in pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So painful~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Peony Immortal’s breath brushed against his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soft, and incredibly bouncy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo internally groaned, quickly waved his hand to signal crew to pull her away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simultaneously, his throat moved subtly downward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman noticed every motion; Guo Feili forgot her head pain and unconsciously bit her lip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Help quickly!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are you two okay?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, nearby crew rushed forward to separate them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo sat up, rubbing his forehead repeatedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luckily, only his head was hit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If his mouth had been struck, it wouldn’t have been as glamorous as in films—bleeding from the mouth would’ve been the least of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Go find some swelling-reducing medicine right away!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unexpectedly, even such a simple action went wrong; Yuan Bin kicked the prop crew members hard in anger. Fortunately, these two had already finished their main scenes for the day, so no major delay occurred.\u003C\u002Fp>",1165,"2026-06-20T17:17:01.025Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","4d58edfe7bd2484f33cc0562e065ed025164a44575527cfc07a02c6f5865bd83","how-can-you-be-an-emperor-of-acting-without-lett-chapter-57","how-can-you-be-an-emperor-of-acting-without-lett-chapter-55",461,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fhow-can-you-be-an-emperor-of-acting-without-lett-cover.jpg"]
