Chapter 1528 He Gaoming’s Team Was Exposed!
In the hotel…
Since Chen Xiaogang posted on Weibo, he and Zhao Rulong had been following the updates on Weibo and the netizens’ reactions. Therefore, they saw Fang Qiu’s reply to the netizens as soon as possible.
“What does Fang Qiu mean?”
Zhao Rulong browsed Fang Qiu’s Weibo on his phone and said, “Could it be that he has gotten over it and wanted to make another film?”
“I think so.”
Chen Xiaogang was pleased. He immediately called someone to prepare the contract and bring it to him.
The dinner gathering with Fang Qiu ended late.
So, Chen Xiaogang and Zhao Rulong checked into the same hotel where Fang Qiu was staying.
“See, the netizens are so enthusiastic, and Fang Qiu has made a positive reply. We must seize this great opportunity to sign the contract with Fang Qiu and talk about other things later.”
Chen Xiaogang said.
“You’re right.”
Zhao Rulong immediately nodded in agreement and said, “It may be the best time to sign the contract with Fang Qiu now. If we miss it, it won’t be so easy to sign with Fang Qiu.”
“I’ll do it.”
Chen Xiaogang said decisively, “I will personally talk to Fang Qiu upon receiving the contract. No matter what, I must take advantage of the situation and sign the contract with Fang Qiu.”
“Mmm.”
Zhao Rulong nodded.
Ten minutes later, the contract was handed to Chen Xiaogang.
Upon getting the contract, Chen Xiaogang trotted straight to Fang Qiu’s room without any delay.
“Knock, knock, knock…”
Chen Xiaogang knocked on the door when he got outside Fang Qiu’s room.
In the room…
After browsing the comments and private messages left by the netizens for a while, Fang Qiu turned off his cell phone and sat cross-legged on the bed to cultivate. When he had just closed his eyes, he heard the knock on the door.
“Who is it?”
Fang Qiu asked in confusion.
“It’s me, Chen Xiaogang.”
Chen Xiaogang replied from outside the door.
“Eh?”
Hearing Chen Xiaogang’s voice, Fang Qiu was stunned at first. Then, he got up and opened the door. When he saw Chen Xiaogang standing at the door with a folder in his hand, Fang Qiu asked in confusion, “Director Chen, it’s getting late, but why are you still awake?”
“Let’s talk inside.”
Chen Xiaogang went straight into Fang Qiu’s room.
When Fang Qiu closed the door, Chen Xiaogang sat on a chair in front of a desk in the room, quickly opened the folder, and took out a contract.
“I saw your Weibo post.”
Chen Xiaogang smiled and said, “Since you intend to make a movie to return to the audience, please sign the contract as soon as possible.”
As he spoke…
Chen Xiaogang handed the contract to Fang Qiu.
Hearing that…
Fang Qiu finally understood the intention of Chen Xiaogang, and he had to give a bitter smile.
“Director Chen, I posted that on Weibo to comfort my fans and helped you promote the online drama series. How can you take it seriously?”
Fang Qiu asked with a wry smile.
“It’s not that I take it seriously.”
Chen Xiaogang grinned and said, “It’s you and your fans who took it seriously, and so did the fans of the movie. I know you have always been a man of your word. I believe you will never lie to the audience. Since you have promised them, you will do it, right?”
“I will.”
Fang Qiu nodded with certainty and said, “But not now. Although I’ve promised it, I can’t even tell when I’ll have time.”
“I understand.”
Chen Xiaogang said with a smile. Then he added, “Take a look at the contract, please. No shooting time or place is requested on it, and no other conditions either. Everything is centered on you, so you don’t have to worry about the time. You just need to sign the contract, and I will feel at ease.”
Fang Qiu took a closer look.
There was indeed no time limit on this contract. Moreover, it was not like leaving the time column with empty space but indicating no time limit. Fang Qiu could film it whenever he wanted, and everything would be centered on Fang Qiu.
Seeing the contents of the contract…
Fang Qiu found that this contract didn’t bind him at all.
He could inform Director Chen at any time when he wanted to shoot. If Director Chen was ready, but Fang Qiu suddenly stop filming, Then Director Chen would not blame Fang Qiu.
Of course…
Fang Qiu would never do such a thing.
After all, they were acquaintances.
“Director Chen, if you signed the contract with me, aren’t you afraid that I’ll delay it for 30 to 50 years?”
Fang Qiu asked.
“I believe you won’t do that.”
Chen Xiaogang laughed out loud. “This contract is to let you know my determination of inviting you to shoot a sequel. Everything else is not important.”
Hearing that…
Fang Qiu couldn’t say anything more.
Since Director Chen had said so, what else could Fang Qiu say?
“Okay. I’ll sign it.”
Fang Qiu thought if he didn’t sign this contract tonight, Director Chen would not leave his room.
Anyway, this contract had no binding effect on him. In addition, Fang Qiu had promised the netizens that he would make a movie. It had no effect on signing this contract.
“Go ahead, please. I can pay you the deposit first.”
Chen Xiaogang smiled triumphantly.
In the end, he seized this opportunity.
Looking at the smug smile on Director Chen’s face…
Fang Qiu could do nothing but signed the contract.
“Since we have signed the contract, I won’t disturb your rest. Remember the contents of the contract. Whenever you want to act in a movie, you must give priority to my movie.”
Chen Xiaogang said with a smile.
About this…
It was clearly stated in the contract.
Of course, it was only applied to one movie.
For Fang Qiu…
It was impossible for him to make other movies, for it was a waste of time to act in a movie. Except for the meaningful role of Yang Yizhi, which he respected very much, Fang Qiu would not act in any other movies.
Fang Qiu didn’t lack fame or wealth. The reason why he played a role in the movie was purely for a trace of touch in his heart.
With the signed contract in his hand…
Chen Xiaogang left delightedly.
After sending off Chen Xiaogang, Fang Qiu returned to his bed and sat cross-legged to cultivate.
…
In Zhongdong…
The night was quiet.
In the wilderness, several cone-shaped houses were close to each other, looking like a local tribe.
But in fact…
This was the stronghold of He Gaoming’s team.
Since arriving in Zhongdong, He Gaoming had destroyed four small-sized strongholds of the Nirvana Organization with his brothers.
Their actions caused chaos, and they met with a counterstrike from the Nirvana Organization.
The Nirvana Organization even sent out a guru-level expert to fight back. He Gaoming and Li Boqing almost got killed.
Fortunately, the guru was an incapable guru, so he couldn’t hurt He Gaoming and Li Boqing in a short time. When the brothers were surrounded by the members of the Nirvana Organization, Sword Fanatic, who had rushed ahead to look into the situation, returned. He joined these brothers to kill all the members of the Nirvana Organization eventually.
After that…
Sword Fanatic led He Gaoming and the others to launch a surprise attack on the Nirvana Organization. It was because he had investigated the locations of many of Nirvana Organization’s strongholds in advance.
With Sword Fanatic leading the way, these brothers fought more unscrupulously and bravely.
In the end…
They destroyed over a dozen Nirvana Organization’s strongholds in a row.
It irritated the Nirvana Organization. After reporting to Lord Virtuous and receiving his order, the members of the Nirvana Organization quickly found the station of He Gaoming and the others. Then, in order not to attract others’ attention, they quietly sneaked into the station where He Gaoming and the brothers stayed under darkness.
This was a wasteland in the forest.
Only this area was flat grass, surrounded by sere forest zones.
In this position, it was convenient for He Gaoming and the others to observe the surroundings, but it was also easy for others to ambush and besiege.
Right now…
In a few wooden houses…
All the brothers were resting, and only He Gaoming was guarding the night with another eight brothers including Liang Fen.
These nine brothers were selected by Fang Qiu to form the Combined Attack Sword Formation at the beginning. They were always together, whether practicing Kung Fu or taking a rest. When they were assigned to guard the night, the nine brothers were also in one.
“Brother He, how do you feel? After experiencing so many combats recently, have you improved your strength?”
Liang Fen sat next to He Gaoming and asked while observing the situation around them.
“How about you?” He Gaoming asked with a smile.
Then he said, “My strength improvement is indeed a little less than yours, but that’s because my strength is stronger than yours. I feel that I’ve almost reached the breakthrough of the bottleneck. I believe it won’t take long for me to break through to the ninth-class with two opened meridians.”
“Well, we have also improved quite well.”
Liang Fen nodded with a smile and said, “Now we all set you as our goal. We try our best to break through to the ninth-class expert as soon as possible and become as strong as you. By then, our Combined Attack Sword Formation will be stronger!”
He Gaoming said with a smile, “You guys have better gifts than me. I just got involved in Wulin a little earlier than you.
“I believe that your strength will soon get improved. At that time, you will become my goal to catch up with.”
“Haha, you are too modest.”
Liang Fen responded with a smile.
Just then…
“Whoosh.”
Liang Fen suddenly stopped laughing to turn to look at the forest on the left. He frowned and asked, “Brother He, did you hear that?”
“Yeah.”
He Gaoming nodded and said, “Is it a human being or an animal?”
“Are there any animals in this place?”
Liang Fen narrowed his eyes, stared at the forest for a while, and said, “People here can’t even find food. They have eaten all living creatures that they can catch. Even if there are animals, they will never dare to approach the human camp. It seems that we will be in trouble tonight.”
As soon as Liang Fen finished speaking…
“Swoosh!”
An ear-piercing sound breaking through the air suddenly came.
In an instant…
A palm-long black awl suddenly flew out of a forest, with an extremely sharp aura of energy, and straightly smashed toward Liang Fen’s head.
“Dodge!”
He Gaoming shouted and pushed Liang Fen aside quickly.
The pitch-black awl instantly pierced through the space between them and stabbed heavily into the ground.
“Eh? Is it exposed?”
In the darkness, a voice of surprise was heard.
He Gaoming and Liang Fen looked in that direction at the same time.
They saw a black shadow walking out of the forest, fiddling with another pitch-black awl in his hand.
