The 'clown' is naturally Xu Jing.

Regarding the harassment of this association, Xu Jing, Zhao Xiaojun and others had long expected that in the entertainment industry in Xiangjiang, the community is an unavoidable obstacle. Since the 60s and 70s, the Hong Kong entertainment industry has been dyed with a strong black color, the most famous is the Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest Dragon Fight in the 70s, using the community to expel each other's fans, and the Shaw Brothers Cinema chain is often placed bombs to show intimidation.

The set is also the hardest hit area of the underworld, at that time, there were basically few martial artists who were not involved in the underworld, and in addition to filming, the martial artists were also responsible for maintaining law and order on the set, forming gangs to fight in groups, and even killing people when they opened the film.

After entering the 80s, the degree of the club's involvement in the entertainment industry has become more in-depth, and many artists have an inexplicable relationship with the club. Since the end of the 80s, the Xiangjiang community has been involved in the entertainment industry and even semi-public, forcing artists to make films, opening film companies and laundering money is often unpleasant, and the more famous actor Leung Jiahui was directly kidnapped to make movies, and was forced to sign a contract for more than a dozen films a year. In addition, the death of Li Lianjie's agent and the series of incidents caused by Mei Yanfang's slapping caused an uproar in the outside world.

Collecting protection money for the crew can be said to be an unspoken rule in Xiangjiang, although he doesn't like it, Xu Jing does not object to it. Since he came to Xiangjiang to make movies, he had to adapt to these rules, and the mentality of 'I am an exception' would only bring endless trouble after all, and he could protect people's safety but could not stop the endless harassment of the community, and making movies would only become empty talk.

It's just that Xu Jing didn't expect that Zhou Xiaoxun would be injured because of this. Zhou Xiaoxun's injury can be said to have touched Xu Jing's scales, for Xu Jing, who has been lonely for half a life, Zhou Xiaoxun, who was the first to walk into his heart, has even surpassed the feelings between ordinary relatives in a sense. For this reason, Xu Jing even rejected Lin Jianguo's proposal to solve the matter in his 'gentler' way.

If Zhou Xiaoxun's injuries were more serious, I am afraid that Xu Jing would not just intimidate and provoke this night. hurt the reverse scale, maybe Xu Jing's negative emotions that had accumulated in his heart in his previous life would blow up something.

Yes, what Xu Jing did this night was only intimidation and provocation, intimidation was a warning, and provocation was to buy time.

The bun was the original plan, and after seeing the revolver, Xu Jingcai added a game of Oros wheel. The grenade is a prop grenade for filming "Killer", but there is a bullet in the revolver M10 but it is real, but Xu Jing didn't want to kill, and a few gangsters who let off the wind just fainted.

In fact, firing five empty guns in a row was also under Xu Jing's control. Every time after the reload, Xu Jing would pluck the wheel several times and sense the position of the bullet by the weight of the bullet. This is not an unusual skill. A firearms master can achieve it with a certain amount of training, not to mention a 'super-powerful' person like Xu Jing.

Speaking of which, there is just such a plot of the Oros wheel gambling board in "This Killer Is Not Cold".

The clown operation is the third time that Xu Jing has come to this time and space to enter another 'me' through self-hypnosis, of course, it doesn't count when filming. The first was the rage after the Qushi rock party, the second was the neurotic villain in the afternoon, and the third was the demonic 'clown' state.

Without a doubt, 'Joker' is one of the most magical villains in the history of cinema.

In fact, Xu Jing is not very happy with self-hypnosis, and it is okay when making movies, after all, making movies is the only thing he likes to do. But in real life, Xu Jing doesn't like to do this, and can even be said to be very reluctant to become another 'me' through self-hypnosis.

He is no longer the 'crippled' Michael in his previous life who could only hide in the corner every day and rely on this 'spiritual food' to survive, in this life he can be himself with peace of mind, he can make friends, he can do what he likes, and he can feel this world of flowers.

In this case, why do you have to be someone else? Therefore, Xu Jing will never become another 'me' to live in life. And this self-hypnosis is not without side effects. Many people know the story of Zhuang Zhou's dream butterfly, but if Zhuang Zhou spent most of his short life dreaming of butterflies, then is he Zhuang Zhou or the butterfly?

As for the reason why Xu Jing not only entered the 'clown state', but even his image was dressed as a clown, it was not that Xu Jing was afraid that they would recognize him, in fact, Xu Jing was not afraid that Chen Yaoxing and others would recognize his true identity, and even let them know their true identity, otherwise it would not be a vain threat?

One of the purposes of clowning is that this kind of costume will psychologically give Chen Yaoxing and others a greater sense of oppression, and the effect of intimidation will be better. The other is that he wants to take the route of a public figure after all, and Xu Jing doesn't want to leave any tricks because of some negligence. There are some things that you can not care about in private, but you can't put them on the table, that's the rule.

Xu Jing first went back to the shop to deal with the dress, and then went back to the hotel.

When Xu Jing returned to the hotel, Lin Jianguo, Zhao Xiaojun and others did not sleep, but sat in the living room waiting for Xu Jing.

"Xiao Jing, how are things handled?" Seeing Xu Jing coming back, Lin Jianguo asked.

"Well, it's handled, don't worry, there's no dead people. Xu Jing nodded, and then turned to Zhao Xiaojun and the others: "Lao Zhao, pay more attention to this side of the family during this time, and Qingqing will also arrange for someone to pick you up and drop off from school to avoid any accidents." In addition, it is to contact the previous people, and those who are willing to come to Xiangjiang will be arranged as soon as possible, and the company happens to be short of manpower. ”

Although tonight's handling method has achieved a certain effect, it is only to delay some time, otherwise this night it will not be him who will come to the door, but someone else will come to the door.

After all, the club is a very face-saving organization, and Xu Jing's provocation is enough for some time to be chaotic among those people.

Chen Yaoxing and the others should not have the energy to trouble him again for the time being, but no one can guarantee that Chen Yaoxing and the others will definitely not let go of each other's prejudices and come to trouble him first. The defense should always be in place.

In addition, Chen Yaoxing and others are not Xingyi'an sitting in the hall after all, senior thugs pay attention to face, and they naturally pay more attention to face, and if they hit the small ones, they will inevitably pull out the old ones.

"At home, I will talk to the people on the road, although I am no longer engaged in smuggling, but on the road, they will give me some face, after all, we are doing serious business now, and there is no direct conflict of interest with them. On the company's side, although there is a reason for the incident, it is necessary to think about whether to follow the rules of the road next. Of course, it's not a big deal if you don't want to follow the rules, and it's not for nothing that you don't follow the rules. Xing Yi'an is also a person, and with our relationship with the mainland, I think he is more willing to sit down and talk. Seeing that Xu Jing still had some scruples, Lin Jianguo analyzed that as an old fritter who went to Hong Kong, Lin Jianguo knew more than Xu Jing.

"Well, I see. After pondering for a moment, Xu Jing nodded. Although Lin Jianguo has always said that he doesn't have to worry too much about Xing Yi'an, he is also telling Xu Jing that there is no need to make too radical moves, because the other party's dragon head is not purely the kind of stunned young man who kills people and sets fire without following the rules.

When Xu Jing returned to the room, Zhou Xiaoxun had not yet fallen asleep, and Lin Qingqing was still cooperating with Zhou Xiaoxun to tutor her on the homework that she had left behind.

"Brother, you're back!" Seeing Xu Jing coming back, Lin Qingqing said.

Lin Qingqing's voice was very soft, and she looked very shy, in Xu Jing's memory, Lin Qingqing was not like this when she was a child, and she didn't know what she went through after coming to Xiangjiang to become like this.

"Well, I've been glad you've been a good time for you, Qingqing. Xu Jingdao, and then remembered that Zhou Xiaoxun said that Lin Qingqing seemed to be in love, and often went out to play after school and came back late, and said: "Qingqing, don't go out to play after school during this time, I will ask Lao Zhao to arrange someone to pick you up." ”

"Uh, oh, good. Lin Qingqing seemed to be a little speechless, but she didn't say anything, just nodded in agreement, she had heard a little about what Lin Jianguo had done before, and she didn't ask why. Compared with Zhou Xiaoxun, who is a little willful and stubborn, he seems too well-behaved.

"Tomorrow, I will ask my aunt to hire a tutor to help you with your homework and teach you English. Xu Jing talked to Lin Qingqing about tutoring.

In fact, Lin Qingqing's studies have always been top-notch, and asking for a tutor is more for Zhou Xiaoxun. Now that I have taken the road of film, it will be easier to learn English in the future. Lin Qingqing just piggybacks on learning.

"Well, it's not early, you can go back to sleep. Xu Jing said.

"Well, brother, you guys go to bed early. Lin Qingqing said, and then got up and went back.

During the conversation between Xu Jing and Lin Qingqing, Zhou Xiaoxun only stared at the book and did not speak, nor did he move.

"Xiaomi, are you still pretending?" Xu Jing touched Zhou Xiaoxun's slightly damp hair.

“。。。 I didn't pretend!" Zhou Xiaoxun turned his face to look at Xu Jing, holding his face, looking very unconvinced.

"I didn't pretend to be a simple question, and I haven't moved it for a long time. Xu Jing revealed it directly.

"Hehehehehe... Zhou Xiaoxun finally couldn't hold it back, laughed out loud, and felt very shameless, so he angrily pushed Xu Jing to push him away.

It turned out that Zhou Xiaoxun had already calmed down about what happened in the afternoon, but when Xu Jing came back, he only cared about talking to Lin Qingqing, and couldn't help but feel that Xu Jing didn't care about what happened to her in the afternoon, and snubbed her, so he pretended to be reviewing his homework and ignored Xu Jing, but his little ears kept listening to Xu Jing and Lin Qingqing talking about life.

"Xiaomi, it's me who is bad in the afternoon and makes you hurt. Xu Jing stood still and didn't let Zhou Xiaoxun push, but grabbed Zhou Xiaoxun's thin shoulders, bowed slightly, checked the bruises on Zhou Xiaoxun's forehead, which was already red and swollen, and then said.

"Woo woo ... Zhou Xiaoxun, who had calmed down, was comforted by Xu Jingyi, and a sense of grievance came to his heart again, so he hugged Xu Jing and cried into a little cat in his arms.

"Alright, alright, not anymore. Xu Jing gently hugged Zhou Xiaoxun, stroked her back and said.

When Zhou Xiaoxun had vented enough, Xu Jing wiped the tears on her face and asked her to go to bed. Then Xu Jing took a shower himself, returned to the room, sat down at the desk, and took out an English version of "Hitchcock and Truffaut Dialogues" and flipped through it, which tells the story of the dialogue between French film director François Truffaut and world-class suspense master Alfred Hitchcock on the issue of film art.

The movie was not finished, and in order to maintain a good image, Xu Jing still only slept three hours a day. For Xu Jing, reading books is not only to pass the time, but also to improve himself. In Xu Jing's view, if you want to be a qualified filmmaker, it is not enough to have brains and acting skills, you must also have a spirit of dedication to film art. A movie that condenses the spirit of a filmmaker is not necessarily a good movie, but a good movie must be a movie that condenses the spirit of a filmmaker.

"Bang bang bang" read the book for more than half an hour, and the door of the room suddenly rang.

"What's wrong? Xu Jing opened the doorway. At this time, the people who knocked on the room in the suite naturally had no one else except Zhou Xiaoxun.

"Big barley, I can't sleep, I'm still a little scared. Zhou Xiaoxun was wearing a small vest and shorts and was standing outside the door looking at Xu Jingdao, looking a little pitiful.

"Why don't I go to the living room and keep watch, so you can feel at ease. Xu Jing scratched his head and said.

"No, I'll sleep with you. Zhou Xiaoxun spoke again.

“。。。。。。 Xu Jing was a little dumbfounded, and he didn't know what to say at all.

"Just tonight! really, like in yesterday's movie. Zhou Xiaoxun saw Xu Jing stunned and hurriedly hit the railway while it was hot.

After hesitating for a moment, in Zhou Xiaoxun's eager eyes, Xu Jing thought that what happened in the afternoon might indeed frighten Zhou Xiaoxun, so he nodded.

"Yay" Zhou Xiaoxun saw Xu Jing nodded, couldn't help cheering, and then happily ran back to the room and hugged her little pillow.

This night, Zhou Xiaoxun was like in the movie, pillowing Xu Jing's arm and saying "Good night, barley." ”。

Of course, there were other things that happened this night, such as...

Zhou Xiaoxun was lying on his side with his back against Xu Jing, but he couldn't fall asleep, his eyes rolled, and he gently lifted the small P stock and moved it to Xu Jing.

“。。。。 If you move again, I'll throw you back to your room!" Xu Jing drank softly. If he really comes out with 'a slight stiffness to show respect', then he must not be irritable to death?

Zhou Xiaoxun stuck out his tongue lightly and closed his eyes.
