Against the Kung Fu Superstar Filming is purely Ye Chen’s hobby.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his past life, his dream was to become a film and television star.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, his abilities didn’t allow for it, but now with the system’s help, he naturally wants to fulfill this dream.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next day, Jiang Chen followed Zhang Mou to another crew in Hengdian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Old Xu, I brought you someone with superb acting skills, you can let him try out for this role.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Mou said with a smile to the person inside the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen looked inside the room and saw three people seated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One was a middle-aged man, another was a spirited young man, and the last was a beautiful woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Handsome, with spirited eyes, Ye Chen immediately recognized Li Lianjie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other beauty should be the leading actress.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Ke was explaining the scene to the three of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Ke paused for a moment upon seeing Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he pulled Zhang Mou aside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Director Zhang, this role is very important for my film, why did you find me a rookie?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This role is a killer, requiring the ruthlessness of an assassin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The original actor for this role had to withdraw due to injury during filming, so Xu Ke found his old friend Zhang Mou for a replacement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen, although handsome, clearly doesn’t have the assassin’s aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Rookie?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Xu, I’m telling you he’s the best actor I’ve ever seen, do you believe it?” Zhang Mou had predicted Xu Ke’s reaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I don’t believe it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is his acting better than Li Lianjie’s?” Xu Ke replied disdainfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Mou laughed, “You’ll know if you give him a try.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Ke nodded, “Alright, let’s have him try the scene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Zhang, you know my standards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he doesn’t meet them, I won’t use him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Mou said, “Don’t be so difficult, Ye Chen is a gem to me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If my film wasn’t about to wrap up, would I even lend him to you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, in the room, Li Lianjie was also chatting with Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It surprised Ye Chen that even though Li Lianjie was a kung fu superstar, he didn’t put on any airs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Little brother, have you filmed before?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just finished one, this should be the second.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Second film?” Li Lianjie was taken aback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Have you done any kung fu films?” Li Lianjie continued to ask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, this is my first time in a kung fu film, I hope Teacher Li can give me some pointers.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh!” Disappointment was evident in Li Lianjie’s eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No wonder, as a top star, Li Lianjie collaborates with fellow top actors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn’t looking down on newcomers, but was worried about the film’s quality being affected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The beauty hadn’t spoken, but her beautiful eyes were constantly observing Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The little brother is so handsome.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lianjie indeed is very handsome, but next to Ye Chen, he pales a bit.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Nice to meet you, handsome man, my name is Zhong Lili.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hello Sister Lili,” Ye Chen said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Haha, good luck, I look forward to working with you.” Zhong Lili laughed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Uh-huh!” Ye Chen nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this time, Zhang Mou and Xu Ke entered the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Ke smiled, “Lianjie, spar with this young brother, take it easy.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright.” Li Lianjie stood up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Ke’s intention was clear, to let Li Lianjie spar with Ye Chen; if it didn’t work out, it would at least save face for Zhang Mou.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ye Chen, you’re playing an assassin in this film, and Lianjie is a bodyguard!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Ke briefly explained the scene to Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen was stunned for a moment, wasn’t this the “Hua Country Bodyguard” from the past life?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A quick look at the script confirmed it was indeed that name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Got it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Teacher Li, please give me some guidance.” Ye Chen cupped his hands and smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re too kind!” Li Lianjie humbly returned the gesture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ding, Assassin’s Aura activated +9999!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ding, King of Action +9999!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Lianjie looked at Ye Chen, his expression suddenly changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just now, Ye Chen had a gentle demeanor, but now his eyes were filled with intense killing intent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Standing before him, Li Lianjie actually felt a chill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only Li Lianjie, but even Xu Ke and Zhang Mou’s expressions changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially Zhang Mou was shocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many actors have certain specialties, like some are suited to play emperors, some domineering CEOs, and some villains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Mou didn’t expect Ye Chen to portray an assassin so realistically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Ke’s eyes brightened, as a top director, his judgment was sharp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From just one look, he could tell Ye Chen’s acting was far from novice level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Teacher Li, be careful.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen finished speaking and extended his hand, reaching for Li Lianjie’s right shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Lianjie’s eyes sharpened, blocking and deflecting Ye Chen’s arm with his right hand!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clap clap clap!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two figures tangled together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Lianjie is famous for his dashing martial arts moves on screen, and his expressions and actions have captivated countless girls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Ye Chen’s performance was on par with Li Lianjie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His punches were as fast as lightning, and his kicks were clean and crisp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Lianjie’s attack was fierce, but Ye Chen defended and countered, executing his moves skillfully and beautifully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his cool expressions, Zhong Lili was instantly captivated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Mou was also stunned; he hadn’t expected Ye Chen’s martial arts skills to be so impressive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen’s fighting was so neat and sharp that without a foundation in martial arts, it would be impossible to have such an exciting duel with Li Lianjie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Ke’s eyes were filled with excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was exactly the feeling he wanted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen’s eyes carried a ferocity, with an aura of killing intent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s very difficult to portray this feeling without impressive acting skills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More admirably, Ye Chen’s skills were on par with Li Lianjie’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Stop!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following Xu Ke’s command, Ye Chen and Li Lianjie ceased their movements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you, Teacher Li, for the guidance.” Ye Chen cupped his hands towards Li Lianjie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Lianjie praised, “Xiaoye, your kung fu is pretty good.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhong Lili excitedly said, “Ye Chen, your moves just now were too cool.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Brother Lianjie seldom praises others’ kung fu.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Young people these days rarely can endure hardships; most martial scenes rely on stunt doubles and special effects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There are too few actors who can fight for real.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Ke stood up, “Not bad, Ye Chen, this is the style I want.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The role is yours.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you, Director Xu.” Ye Chen expressed his gratitude.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Lianjie smiled, “Little Chen, let’s run through our scenes, let’s film this today.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No problem, but Teacher Li, is there an injury on your right shoulder?” Ye Chen suddenly asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Lianjie was stunned for a moment before nodding, “Indeed, I injured my right arm some time ago while filming, so I don’t dare to exert much force.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen said, “I know some massage techniques, I should be able to help alleviate it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Really?” The pain in his right shoulder had been troubling him for a long time, but he had to endure it for filming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen had Li Lianjie sit on the sofa, and with his hands on the Jianjing and Tianzong acupoints, he began to massage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Lianjie felt invigorated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Xiaoye, your massage technique is amazing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I actually feel no pain in my right shoulder now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Lianjie said excitedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Haha, as long as it works, now you can give your best during filming.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen understood Li Lianjie’s status in the entertainment industry, and befriending someone like him would bring many benefits!\u003C\u002Fp>",1287,"2026-06-03T08:12:36.049Z","2026-06-03T08:12:40.664Z",1,"novelbin.me","15f57bc4cab5b6abb0d72aac2aeb7c5f07b6ff55aaedb7ec0d32607ac1f89621","starting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-chapter-34","starting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-chapter-32",1261,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-cover.jpg"]
