Chapter 35: Even Chen Kai Ge Would Be Punished for Bullying His Actors!
The filming of Limitless Escape was getting closer!
The plot of Limitless Escape tells the story of a behind-the-scenes BOSS who seeks thrills by selecting prey, using a mysterious box to tempt them with high rewards to participate in the Limitless Escape game!
Little did they know that the game was meticulously planned, filled with traps, and hidden dangers. One mistake could lead to instant death!
By the time they realized the game was a death game, it was too late...
This Limitless Escape is all about excitement, thrills, and a non-stop adrenaline rush!!!
...
The remaining three days of training flew by.
During the seven days of training, the crew of Limitless Escape had been assembled, and all procedures were completed.
After the main cast gathered, they set off in a grand procession towards Hengdian World Studios!
...
A hotel in Hengdian.
After Liu Wei, Yang Mi, Tang Yan, Reba, and the rest of the main cast checked in, Zeng Jia called.
"Wei Ge, Chen Kai Ge's Daoist Down the Mountain has been filming in Hengdian for a while. Don't forget to visit him when you get there."
Zeng Jia reminded him.
"Why are you saying this again? Are you a broken record?"
Liu Wei was speechless.
Before leaving Beijing, Zeng Jia had already instructed him to visit Chen Kai Ge once he arrived at Hengdian World Studios.
Even though Old Chen was not as popular as before, he still held a high position in the film industry!
There's a saying, "Fame comes early," which is most fitting for Chen Kai Ge.
Back when domestic films were desolate, like a desert, he achieved international fame with Farewell My Concubine.
His status skyrocketed!
Although he has had a string of box office flops recently, he has already established himself and gained a legendary status. Unless he suffers a devastating blow, his position won't be shaken.
Whenever he films, crews from nearby productions, regardless of their size, will come to visit.
"There have been rumors circulating in the industry lately that you are too domineering, even ignoring the Xu Lao Kui couple, and bullying Du Yi Heng on set, almost crippling him. If you go to Hengdian and don't even visit Chen Kai Ge's crew, wouldn't it confirm the rumors? That's bad for your reputation."
Zeng Jia explained.
"Jia Jie, you don't need to urge me. I'll go with my husband, but we just settled in, and food comes first, right? Let's eat first and talk later."
Yang Mi took her husband's phone and said to Zeng Jia with a mischievous smile.
"Good, I understand. Don't let your husband pay the rent every day, you have to keep an eye on him too!"
Zeng Jia said.
Yang Mi was speechless.
"Let's go, let's eat."
Liu Wei embraced Da Mi Mi.
"Husband, what do you think of Chen Da Dao Yan's Daoist Down the Mountain?"
Yang Mi asked.
If it were before, she wouldn't have asked.
But after watching her husband's film, "One Man's Martial Arts," she realized that her husband had true skills.
Although Chen De Sen was credited as the director, her husband had also made a significant contribution.
"He's no longer at his peak, he's been going downhill, if he ever has a comeback, he must have been on steroids."
Liu Wei said.
Pfft!
"Husband, your evaluation is so vicious. If Chen Da Dao Yan hears you, he'll definitely turn against you."
"It's in line with his personality. He's petty, arrogant, and egotistical. Unfortunately, his era has passed."
...
The couple arrived at their private room, and Tang Yan, Reba, Zhang Li, Wen Yong Shan, and Wang Zhi were already there.
Currently, Wen Yong Shan's contract was still with Ying Huang, but it was about to expire.
So Liu Wei told her not to rush to terminate it, she could just come over after it expired.
There was no need to owe Ying Huang a favor for this.
Therefore, apart from Wen Yong Shan, who wasn't his artist, everyone present was.
"Where's Xie Miao?"
Yang Mi noticed Xie Miao's absence and immediately asked.
"Chen Hong, Chen Kai Ge's wife, called and asked Xie Miao to go directly to her film for a cameo role. They needed someone urgently, so Xie Miao went directly there."
Zhang Li explained.
"Heh."
Liu Wei laughed angrily.
This bitch, Chen Hong, was domineering as always, pretending to be oblivious!
Everyone knows that Xie Miao signed with a new company, becoming an artist under Wei Mi.
If you need someone, you should at least communicate with me, after all, I brought him to film Limitless Escape!
You just called Xie Miao directly and didn't even notify me or Mi Mi. You clearly don't put us in your eyes!
"Xie Miao is honest, Chen Hong took advantage of his seniority, and he was too embarrassed to refuse, so he went."
Zhang Li said.
"But Xie Miao should have called us."
Yang Mi frowned.
"Xie Miao doesn't want to offend Chen Kai Ge and his wife over this small role."
Zhang Li said.
...
After the meal, Liu Wei asked everyone to return to their rooms and rest in preparation for tomorrow's filming.
He reminded them that if anything like this happens again, they should inform them immediately.
"Husband, where are you going?"
Yang Mi asked.
"Didn't Zeng Jia ask us to visit Daoist Down the Mountain? Now that I have lent my people to film their movie, it makes sense for me to visit."
Liu Wei said.
"I'll go with you."
Yang Mi said.
"Alright, together."
...
Hengdian, Daoist Down the Mountain set!
At this moment, they were filming a scene where the villain Peng Qian Wu (played by Yuan Hua) was brutally beating Zhou Xi Yu's (played by Guo Fu Cheng) disciple (Xie Miao).
This scene was extremely brutal!
In the end, Zhou Xi Yu's disciple would die at the hands of the villain Peng Qian Wu!
But this scene had been shot three times, and none of them passed!
Because Chen Kai Ge was not satisfied, the martial arts director Gu Xuan Zhao could only go back and re-design it, re-shooting it over and over again!
"Xie Miao, can you take it?"
Gu Xuan Zhao was exhausted.
But there was nothing they could do, Director Chen Kai Ge didn't approve, so they could only keep shooting.
"Chen Dao, I think it's good enough. Even if Xie Miao can take it, I can't. After all, I'm not young anymore."
Seeing everyone silent, no one dared to speak up, Yuan Hua couldn't hold back anymore.
"Let's shoot two more times. If it doesn't reach my expectations, then we'll just choose the best one."
Chen Kai Ge said.
"Okay, I'll try again."
Xie Miao said.
They did it again!
This time, something went wrong when he landed.
Xie Miao didn't control his landing position well, and his arm smashed hard against a brick, causing him so much pain that he almost passed out on the spot.
"Okay, cut!"
A sharp, commanding voice came through.
"Who yelled cut?"
While everyone was stunned, Chen Kai Ge realized who it was and immediately said, "Come out! This is the set, only the director can yell cut!"
Liu Wei, with a gentle smile, walked out from behind a stone Buddha with Yang Mi by his side.
When Chen Kai Ge saw Liu Wei and Yang Mi, his face froze.
Because Xie Miao was an artist from their company.
"Chen Da Dao Yan, you borrowed my man to film your movie, and you didn't even bother to say hello. I won't say anything about that. But after bringing my man over, you abused him so much. What's the meaning? Where have I offended you, Liu Wei?"
The smile on Liu Wei's face gradually faded, replaced by a chilling aura!
One word!
Tough!
"That's how filming is, rules are rules, if it's not good enough, of course you have to reshoot!"
Chen Kai Ge said.
"You talk about rules with me? Fine, I won't talk about filming. You talk about rules when you hire people? You don't even follow the rules yourself, and you dare to talk about rules with me?"
Liu Wei was full of sarcasm.
No one, the set assistants, the assistant directors, the martial arts directors... the main actors, dared to speak up or intervene.
Liu Wei wasn't just an ordinary artist, everyone knew that.
Chen Kai Ge knew it too, otherwise he wouldn't be scolded to his face and still endure it.
"Wei Ge, I, I really wasn't targeting Xie Miao."
Gu Xuan Zhao, who was from Hong Kong, explained to Liu Wei.
"I ask you, do you know he's my man?"
Liu Wei said coldly.
"I, I know."
Gu Xuan Zhao said with gritted teeth.
"Since you know, you still cooperated? I wouldn't hold you accountable, would it mean that everyone can mess with me? From today onwards, the Hong Kong crew involved in the action scenes will no longer hire you as a martial arts director. You like working with Chen Da Dao Yan so much, I'll grant your wish!"
Liu Wei said.
"..."
Gu Xuan Zhao was stunned.
Action scenes were still dominated by the Hong Kong crew.
If the Hong Kong crew didn't work with him anymore, it meant he would be unemployed.
