378: Chapter 378 Master Yang

The matter of joining Xiaohongshu was left to Wu Yue to handle, and Lin Chuyan prepared to open the treasure chests.

Throughout February, four main things maintained his popularity.

First was "pegasus 2", which was the genuine box office champion of the Spring Festival Movie Season. Although he wasn't the male lead, he made a significant contribution, especially in terms of striking at rivals...

Then, there was that phrase "I don't like it" which he said while facing half the entertainment industry, thereby offending people.

There's nothing much to say about this; if he had the kind of personality that "doesn't concern itself with matters until they affect him," he wouldn't have argued with people in Director Li Li's office in the first place—although in the eyes of many, this behavior would only make him seem "baffling."

The third thing was that he ran off to Japan to win a Japan Film Academy Awards, and then had a good time scolding people at the awards ceremony.

The fourth thing was his several endorsements, though the lipstick advertisement was released on the last day of the month, so it couldn't be used for a treasure chest for now.

Lin Chuyan washed his hands and prepared to open the treasure chests.

Very good, finally there's another male-female duet, and it's by Song Ge too. Arrange it!

Lin Chuyan really wanted to put together a duet album; the "every day" and "must love" he previously sang with Ruan Xingyu could also be included in the new album.

However... what is this "Specialized Skill Unlock Point"?

Lin Chuyan studied it a bit, and the item provided an explanation:

[This item can incorporate any (entertainment-related) specialized skill into the system.]

In plain English, it means the skills he learned himself can be upgraded with points.

For example, "Fangcun Sword Technique."

The system immediately popped up a prompt:

[Detected specialized skill "Fangcun Sword Technique" (upgradable)]

[Unlock condition: Specialized Skill Unlock Point * 1]

[Unlock?]

Obviously not, this sword technique is just a routine for physical fitness.

Don't waste it, let's keep looking.

Furthermore, things like the "wire-fu" he learned after joining the crew could also be incorporated.

But it would be a bit of a waste to use it on that; Lin Chuyan had better ideas.

Let's continue opening the chests first!

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the complete Songwriting for the work "loneliness"]

This is a rap song by G.E.M.

Lin Chuyan thought about it; it seemed his girlfriend hadn't sung this kind of song before?

Moreover, this one seems like it could create a synergy with his own songs...

That works; I'll look for Brother Zheng Hai later to work on it, maybe it can be released even earlier than my girlfriend's new album.

Keep opening!

This is a Cantonese song, and it's the male version, which is the Huichundan version.

Very good, one step closer to his own Cantonese album.

Last chest, keep opening!

It's Jay Chou's again.

But this one is very interesting, especially the lyrics.

Lin Chuyan had actually forgotten the lyrics a bit, but looking at them again now, he always felt... it was a bit directed at Director Deng Yu?

You can tell just by looking at the first line.

"Re-editing through the lens, the imagination given by history."

It easily makes people think of the various flashy tricks Director Deng Yu used to hype up his own terrible films...

That works, that's exactly the effect he wanted.

If he could think of it, how could Wawa not?

Lin Chuyan opened his computer, logged into Aiyue.com, registered the copyrights for the few songs, and then rushed to the film set—the master Master Huang found to teach him the three-pointed double-edged spear had finally arrived at the set.

Master Huang introduced him: "Teacher Lin Chuyan, this is Yang Zhen, Master Yang. Master Yang, this is Lin Chuyan; I won't introduce him much further."

Master Yang was a bit older than Master Huang, looking around 45.

Neither fat nor thin, neither tall nor short, and looking quite average, the kind that would disappear if thrown into a crowd. His only distinctive feature was his very bright eyes, which made him look full of energy.

After the few of them exchanged some pleasantries, Master Huang said goodbye and left first—it wouldn't be appropriate for him to watch while someone else was teaching.

Only Lin and Yang remained in the film crew's training arena, and they soon got straight to the point.

"I heard from Old Huang that you have a foundation and learn things quickly; you are a martial arts prodigy..."

Lin Chuyan quickly interrupted him: "Master Yang, how about this, just teach me normally; it would be best if you could demonstrate the whole set once and explain the key points clearly. Then I'll go back and practice well; what do you think?"

Master Yang didn't waste words and nodded: "This set of mine is stronger than the Fangcun Sword Technique you practice. Although it's a performance routine, you must remember, it cannot be used for brawling or fighting. Modern society doesn't allow it either; this point must be made clear."

Actually, he also knew that the other party was a top-tier artist and couldn't possibly do anything with his martial arts, but he still emphasized it once.

"Understood."

"Very good, this set of mine is more agile, which actually suits you all well for filming TV series." Master Yang held the three-pointed double-edged spear in his hand, "In terms of force-generating techniques, it focuses more on the control of small joints like wrists and ankles; you need to pay attention to this when you practice."

Master Yang naturally separated his feet to shoulder-width and slightly bent his knees. The three-pointed double-edged spear leaned diagonally against his right waist, his right hand lightly gripping the bottom of the spear shaft, his left hand resting lightly above the middle of the shaft, with the spear tip pointing slightly upward.

"This is the opening stance: Lingxi Gazing at the Moon. Next is the first form: Spirit Snake Tracking."

Master Yang began to move.

Lin Chuyan had originally thought the man was unremarkable, but once he moved, he discovered that the man's entire aura was different; it suddenly changed.

In his past life, he had also scrolled past some performance competitions, like Tai Chi or something, and to be honest, he didn't think they were that impressive when watching.

But seeing it with his own eyes now, he realized that even if it was a routine, it wasn't something an ordinary person could achieve.

He saw Master Yang lightly tap his front foot on the ground and slide half a step forward—no wonder it was called "Spirit Snake Tracking"; it really had that flavor of a spirit snake quietly probing the path!

This sliding step drove Master Yang's center of gravity slightly forward; simultaneously, his right wrist instantly exerted force and shook—the center spear tip of the three-pointed double-edged spear was like a venomous snake flicking its tongue, thrusting fiercely forward!

Because Lin Chuyan was standing to the side, he didn't feel it as deeply, but in reality, the target of this move was to lock onto the opponent's wrists, elbows, and other joints; the attack route was undeniably tricky.

The spear shaft swept through several arcs in the air, fully displaying a sense of lightness and agility.

"Don't be in a hurry when practicing; you can slow down your movement rhythm. First, carefully experience the coordination between the subtle movement of your center of gravity and the explosive shaking of your wrist. After practicing this repeatedly many times, then gradually increase the speed. Every time you thrust, you must outline a clear virtual target in your mind, understand? Although this is a performance routine, you must imagine an opponent and aim for their wrists and elbows; only then can you make your spear tip land accurately."

Awesome, is it really just the first form despite being so good-looking?

"Master Yang, how many forms are there in total?"

"Eight. I will demonstrate all of them for you tonight."
