Chapter 42: Visiting the *Return of the Condor Heroes* Set; *Swords of Legends* Scheduled

Unlike the two dramas where Li Yitong and Zhou Jin didn't have many scenes.

The role of Guo Fu is always very important in *Return of the Condor Heroes*.

When Zhou Jin watched it before, he always wondered why Guo Fu was so annoying, yet had so many scenes.

Guo Fu is pure and straightforward by nature, open-minded and without city, and could even be angered to tears by arguing with a small soldier.

And she didn't even hesitate to risk her own life to save her sister.

Even for the sake of the people of the Song Dynasty, she always guarded Xiangyang with her parents; this is the true foundation and pride of a chivalrous woman who values family and protects her family.

Conversely, Zhou Jin liked Guo Xiang when he was young, but after growing up and maturing, he didn't like the somewhat selfish Guo Xiang as much.

And Zhou Jin remembered there was another saying that Yang Guo's white moonlight from beginning to end was always Guo Fu, but the two people's personalities led to this result.

After Li Yitong finished a scene, she inadvertently saw Zhou Jin among the many staff members.

She thought she was seeing things at first glance.

After confirming, a look of surprise appeared in her eyes.

She didn't expect Zhou Jin to take the initiative to find her.

It just so happened that Li Yitong's scenes were finished; she told the director and immediately rushed to Zhou Jin's side, giving him a big hug.

After the hug, Li Yitong smiled happily, her eyebrows curved as she said in surprise:

"Zhou Jin, why are you here!"

"Didn't you say you were going to rest for a few days?"

"Slept for a day and a night, completely recovered. There was nothing to do in the hotel, so I came to find you."

"Really!" Li Yitong was a bit moved.

She didn't care about the influence and excitedly hugged Zhou Jin's arm.

Li Yitong was a very important actress, after all; many people in the crew paid attention to her every move.

Seeing Li Yitong hug so intimately and even hug his arm.

Many people were a bit surprised.

But after sizing up Zhou Jin's appearance, they were even more surprised.

"Handsome!"

"Too handsome!"

Even though most of the actors in the crew were veterans in the entertainment industry, they were still shocked by Zhou Jin's handsomeness.

Chen Yanxi, who played Little Dragon Girl, was a bit surprised by Zhou Jin's handsomeness.

In the entertainment industry, Chen Xiao's looks can be called publicly handsome.

Otherwise, he couldn't have played Yang Guo.

But in front of Zhou Jin, even Chen Xiao was a bit lacking.

She wanted to go up and say hello, but hesitated; she was already a famous actress, and a woman.

If she took the initiative to say hello, it would make her seem too cheap.

Meanwhile, several supporting actors and staff members of the *Condor Heroes* crew frowned slightly when they saw this scene.

Li Yitong had a good personality, was beautiful, kind, and approachable, and didn't have a boyfriend; she didn't lack pursuers in the crew.

They had been eyeing this "big white cabbage" for a long time, but didn't expect her to be intimately hugging a stranger's arm now.

Many people in the crew couldn't help but feel sour in their hearts.

But after all, they were all in the entertainment industry, so even if they felt sour, they wouldn't say it out loud, just muttering a few words like "little fresh meat, poor acting" in their hearts.

There were also quite a few people on the scene who felt familiar when they saw Zhou Jin's face and slowly remembered.

A few months ago, Zhou Jin had been on the hot search because of the stills of *Swords of Legends*.

Chen Xiao also quickly recognized Zhou Jin, took a big step forward, reached out friendly, and said: "Hello, my name is Chen Xiao."

"Zhou Jin," Zhou Jin shook his hand and nodded.

"Sure enough, it's you," Chen Xiao smiled lightly.

After the two chatted for a few sentences, Yu Zheng's eyes lit up after seeing Zhou Jin.

Directors and screenwriters are actually in the same circle.

He naturally knew Director Kong Sheng, and not only knew him, but their relationship was quite good.

He mentioned Zhou Jin to Kong Sheng yesterday, but he heard him not sparing his praise; it was the first time he had seen Director Kong praise a rookie so much.

Yu Zheng is not a director with his own persistence like some others.

He is a bit like the Hong Kong film director Wong Jing, knowing what the audience likes, and has no messy bottom line; he just films whatever can explode.

So acting skills don't matter at all, as long as it can be popular and make money.

So Yu Zheng likes to use some cheap rookies and also likes to use some handsome men and beautiful women.

And Zhou Jin perfectly fits Yu Zheng's expectations.

First, rookie, low pay.

Second, handsome, very, very handsome.

Third, acting is also very good.

Yu Zheng knew clearly that if Zhou Jin's few dramas aired, he would completely explode.

By then, the difficulty of him inviting the other party to act would rise linearly.

So after learning that Zhou Jin came to this crew, Yu Zheng ran over in a hurry.

Yu Zheng ran to Zhou Jin and said excitedly: "Hello, you must be Teacher Zhou Jin."

"I am Zhou Jin, but Teacher is not deserved."

Zhou Jin naturally recognized Yu Zheng and was a bit stunned.

What's the situation?

So enthusiastic.

If you didn't know, you'd think he had some background.

And Chen Xiao, Li Yitong, and Chen Yanxi, who had been watching from afar, were all shocked looking at Zhou Jin.

Why is Yu Zheng's attitude so good!

What happened?

Yu Zheng saw Zhou Jin's confusion and laughed: "Mentioned you to Director Kong yesterday, and Director Kong's praise for you has never stopped, and Director Liang also recognizes your acting."

Zhou Jin breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

So that's how it is.

He thought Yu Zheng had taken a fancy to him.

Hearing Yu Zheng's words, Chen Yanxi, who was watching from afar, felt a bit regretful.

If she had known earlier that Zhou Jin was so valued by Yu Zheng and other directors, she should have come over to say hello earlier.

But after hesitating for a while, Chen Yanxi still walked over.

She reached out to Zhou Jin with a smile and said: "Hello, my name is Chen Yanxi, and I play Little Dragon Girl in *Condor Heroes*."

Zhou Jin looked at Chen Yanxi, who had a bit of baby fat and was nicknamed "Little Steamed Bun," shook hands lightly, and quickly let go.

His attitude was very cold.

He had never liked Chen Yanxi since his previous life.

Li Yitong observed Zhou Jin's attitude, breathed a sigh of relief, and hugged Zhou Jin's arm tighter.

Yu Zheng looked at Zhou Jin and Li Yitong and said with a smile: "Teacher Zhou Jin, let's cooperate if there's a chance."

"Hmm, okay," Zhou Jin agreed readily.

Soon, Zhou Jin and Li Yitong said goodbye to the others, and the two strolled in an empty place in the crew.

Then they sat on an open lawn.

A breeze blew.

Li Yitong fell into Zhou Jin's arms with a smile.

She talked about the bits and pieces of her drama like she was acting like a spoiled child.

"Because it's a Jin Yong drama, and I play the role of Guo Fu, there are many action scenes, and it's very hard every day."

"Even when not filming, I have to practice some martial arts moves, and the martial arts instructors are all from Hong Kong; they are a bit strict, and when they get angry, they speak Cantonese that I can't understand."

Zhou Jin listened silently, occasionally echoing.

Suddenly, Li Yitong paused and looked up at Zhou Jin.

"Zhou Jin."

"What's wrong?"

Li Yitong's voice was spoiled: "It's really good that you came to see me."

"That's it?" Zhou Jin smiled lightly.

"Zhou Jin."

Li Yitong looked at Zhou Jin infatuatedly.

"What's wrong again?"

Li Yitong kissed Zhou Jin on the lips like a dragonfly skimming the water.

Then she rested her chin on her hand and said with a flowery smile: "I like you."

【Detected that the host is interacting closely with first-tier actress Li Yitong, relationship reached the second stage. Reward: Random Intermediate Entry x1, Acting Skill +5.】

Zhou Jin was stunned for a moment.

He looked at Li Yitong; the eyes looking at him were full of liking and love.

Zhou Jin couldn't help it either, lowered his head directly, and contained Li Yitong's soft, cold lips.

Li Yitong didn't have much rest time and soon started busy filming again.

And Zhou Jin also returned to the hotel.

【Do you want to draw an intermediate entry?】

Zhou Jin confirmed in his heart.

A slot machine appeared on the light screen, and the patterns on it kept rolling.

【Entry draw successful—Intermediate Entry: Abstract Master.】

【Entry effect: Acting naturally carries a natural abstract atmosphere; performance jumps out of the conventional acting framework, and the expression of demeanor, rhythm, and emotion is self-contained.】

Zhou Jin finished checking the introduction of the intermediate entry and nodded lightly.

"This entry is suitable for acting in some comedies, abstract TV dramas, and movies."

It just so happened that he had no drama to film now, and there was still a Luck Card that could be used.

The effect of the Luck Card last time was very good, but he didn't know how powerful the Luck Card could be.

Zhou Jin had just finished using the Luck Card.

He received a WeChat message from Yang Mi.

"A series of review procedures for *Swords of Legends* have been completely completed, and it is officially scheduled for July 2, 2014."

Zhou Jin felt a bit dazed seeing this news from Yang Mi.

When he was reborn, it was September 2013; now, unknowingly, half a year had passed, and it was 2014.

It was even only about three months left until *Swords of Legends* aired.

Yang Mi continued to send a WeChat message:

"During this period, some behind-the-scenes footage will be released to slowly increase the heat."

"And sometimes the crew has to go to various variety shows to promote; it's best if you can promote together. This drama has a large investment; although you are only a supporting role, it is also possible to explode."

Zhou Jin naturally knew that this drama would definitely explode.

Facing this kind of request from Yang Mi, he naturally wouldn't refuse. He was just about to reply to the message, but perhaps seeing that Zhou Jin didn't reply, Yang Mi sent a WeChat video call directly.

Zhou Jin answered quickly.

On the other end was Yang Mi's face with light makeup, a bit fox-like.

Yang Mi teased with a smile: "What are you doing, not replying to messages? Are you hiding a beauty in a golden house?"

Zhou Jin could faintly see Yang Mi from the camera; she should be in the hotel at this time, having just showered, wrapped in a bath towel, revealing her fair neck, and the snow-white skin faintly visible underneath.

Zhou Jin coughed lightly and said: "Sister Mi, something is blocking the lens; move it down a bit." ===== CHAPTER 43 =====
