451: Chapter 451 Have you ever seen Hengdian at 3 a.m.?

Ever since the conflict between Lin Chuyan and Director Deng Yu, Entertainment Reporter Xiao Ba had actually kept a low profile, shifting his focus to praising his senior brother, Zhang Wentang.

However, marketing accounts like this are very sharp at reading the wind—the "lotus lantern" is clearly on the verge of taking off.

What else is there to say?

All in!

Must go all in!

Bet on Lin Chuyan!

What?

You say there was a conflict before?

That was ages ago!

It has long since turned swords into plowshares, turned mistresses into streamers, and turned the neighbor Old Wang into the top donor.

Entertainment Reporter Xiao Ba was in the middle of posting his latest Weibo.

They had already interviewed Master Huang.

Isn't that a coincidence?

You wouldn't know if you didn't check—this person actually turned out to be one of the martial arts directors for the "lotus lantern"!

On top of that, there was also a Master Yang who taught Lin Chuyan spear techniques!

Entertainment Reporter Xiao Ba was excited: "Well played, Lin Chuyan, you really have trained!"

Upon further investigation, this Master Yang was a veteran who had won awards domestically!

Although this weapon is a bit obscure, being able to win awards is still very impressive!

And, to think Lin Chuyan would push himself so hard just to play the role of Erlang Shen in the "lotus lantern"?

Dedicated, so dedicated!

Of course, the most important thing is the nickname "martial arts prodigy."

In addition to Master Huang and Master Yang, Entertainment Reporter Xiao Ba simply interviewed a few others from the crew, and the result was that everyone spoke with one voice... Now, he had no choice but to believe it!

Entertainment Reporter Xiao Ba's Weibo post was quickly written.

[Exclusive Visit: We chatted with the behind-the-scenes staff of the "lotus lantern" to reveal the dedication behind Lin Chuyan's fight scenes.

The "lotus lantern" is a hit, and Lin Chuyan's fight scenes are also a hit.

In recent years, "action stars" have disappeared, and fight scenes have gradually declined.

To be more precise, as the generation of Chen Jiaju has gradually aged, how long has it been since we saw such spectacular fight scenes?

Some say fight scenes are difficult, some say actors are delicate, and others say it is the inevitable result of the industrialization of the film and television industry... There are many reasons, and Xiao Ba is not a professional, so he has no intention of delving deep.

But, with the release of the "lotus lantern", when the Long take of Lin Chuyan holding the three-pointed double-edged spear appeared before our eyes, we realized: it turns out there are still actors in the Chinese Entertainment Industry who can fight!

We cannot help but ask: where exactly has the problem been for so many years?

Perhaps, after reading this Weibo post, you can get closer to the answer.

Image 1 is a snapshot shown to Xiao Ba by Master Huang, the martial arts director of "the long season" and "lotus lantern", which can be considered behind-the-scenes footage of the "lotus lantern"—this is Hengdian at 3 AM, with Lin Chuyan holding the three-pointed double-edged spear, adjusting the angle of his spear thrust.

According to Master Huang, to accurately present Erlang Shen's martial arts prowess, Lin Chuyan entrusted him to specifically invite Master Yang Zhenbang, an inheritor of "Yang Family Spear".

For this, we specifically visited Master Yang.

The old master recalled the scene of teaching Lin Chuyan with emotion: "This child is very busy filming, and we met at night after he finished filming. If you ask for my impression of him? Very eager to learn! And very talented! I still find it hard to believe that he learned this set of spear techniques in one night."

Image 2 is the award trophies and certificates provided by Master Yang at his home.

Yes, the Lingxi Spear Technique has been passed down for many years; without it, there would be no brilliant fight scenes from Lin Chuyan.

Image 3 is a photo provided by the crew's photographer.

Everyone can see that when Lin Chuyan eats, the three-pointed double-edged spear is placed right beside him.

According to him, Lin Chuyan has had the "spear in hand" since the first day he arrived at the crew, just to be able to wield it like an extension of his arm.

In addition, Master Huang also revealed that besides spear techniques, Lin Chuyan began asking him for tips on "wire work" before joining the crew.

Master Huang stated that Lin Chuyan's talent is not only reflected in spear techniques, but he also has his own unique insights into wire work.

Master Huang said that there is a "bamboo forest flying backward" wire scene later on that was Lin Chuyan's creative idea; he designed it himself!

And the resulting effect was unanimously affirmed by all members of the crew!

Master Huang also said that the wire scene can definitely be called a "famous scene" and will be remembered in film and television history.

In short, let everyone wait and see!

"He broke our perception as martial arts directors."

Image 4 is a short video on Master Huang's phone that he showed to Xiao Ba—yes, this is a complete set of "Lingxi Spear Technique" performed by Lin Chuyan on set.

Master Huang sighed to us: "I have taught many young actors, but there is absolutely only one Lin Chuyan who is so talented and willing to work so hard. Our Chinese Entertainment Industry, it has really been too long since such a good talent has appeared. Such talent should be protected before it's too late; how can they be blacklisted?"

"There are too few young actors now who are willing to settle down and learn traditional weapons."

Master Yang also sighed, "I only have four words for my impression of Lin Chuyan: Inheriting Art with Sincerity!"

Image 5 is the "corroboration" provided by Master Yang—this is a photo of him with Lin Chuyan.

Of course, to verify the authenticity of the event, we also randomly interviewed two prop staff members of the "lotus lantern".

According to them, everyone saw Lin Chuyan's efforts with their own eyes.

Because of long-term spear practice, his palms still have calluses; everyone knows this, and it cannot be faked.

Above, this is the real Lin Chuyan presented by Xiao Ba after interviewing many people and from multiple perspectives.

Regarding this, Xiao Ba also wants to say one thing: Lin Chuyan, you are too low-key!

If no one went to dig deep into the story behind this, would you not intend to say a word about this Lingxi Spear Technique and every drop of sweat behind it?

If it were other actors, even a scratch could have been marketed many times over!

Finally, Xiao Ba also wants to say that in the entire interview, there is one sentence that left a deep impression on us: We should protect such good actors, such good talents, instead of blacklisting them.

Sigh, Chinese Entertainment Industry, sigh, let's keep going.]

Netizens were also a bit overwhelmed.

The first thing they did, of course, was to click on the pictures and videos attached to the Weibo post.

Especially that video.

Lin Chuyan's martial arts movements are just too cool!

This is a whole set, flowing like clouds and water, with great force and heavy momentum...

Goodness, so my idol really knows martial arts, so Lin Chuyan is really this awesome!

Some netizens were even more outrageous: So he really is Erlang Shen, what was acted in the TV series is true!

Netizens couldn't help but believe it.

Look at how many people Xiao Ba interviewed?

Martial arts directors, veteran masters in the martial arts world, the crew's photographer, prop staff, plus Director Lin's previous statement, and so many pictures and videos...

The evidence is overwhelming!

Now what do the Haters have to say!

Also, they were right; Lin Chuyan is really too low-key!

With such a good marketing point, my idol is actually as immovable as a mountain?

It's fine if my idol is low-key, but is the crew also so indifferent?

Is this right?

This is not right!

As for Entertainment Reporter Xiao Ba's last sentence, that was even more of a killer blow.

Striking at the heart!

Truly striking at the heart!

These words went straight to the fans' hearts: This Chinese Entertainment Industry really doesn't deserve Lin Chuyan!

Look, such a good actor is now filming in Hong Kong every day, and is this how the mainland treats good actors?

Is this acceptable?!

...

Soon, the reading and forwarding volume of Entertainment Reporter Xiao Ba's Weibo post began to soar.

For a time, fans, passersby, and Haters all mobilized, and some public opinion pressure began to be applied to certain people.
