529 The Other Party Wants To Ruin My Career
Mingguan was confused.
How much strength could Jiang Xun have?
You two big men couldn’t even hold her down?
“Oh! Jiang Xun suddenly realized. So that was your greatest strength just now?”
Extra A and Extra B were speechless.
It was a matter of dignity for men, but they really didn’t have the courage to deny it.
Jiang Xun said, “Well, Director, I understand. I’ll control my strength. I saw that they were adding pressure on me just now, so in order to make it more realistic, I also put in more strength to struggle, but who knew that was the limit of their strength.”
The two extras were couldn’t say anything.
The damage wasn’t great, but it was extremely insulting.
“Alright, then control your strength.” Mingguan could only say that. He was shocked that Jiang Xun was so strong.
An average female actor’s strength definitely couldn’t compare to an actor’s.
Therefore, when they struggled, they couldn’t break free even if they used all their strength, and they could even make it look very real.
However, neither of the two male actors managed to suppress Jiang Xun.
Jiang Xun now had a clear understanding of the strength of the two extras.
When they started shooting again, she controlled her strength.
But because it was an act, it was not as realistic as trying very hard to struggle.
Jiang Xun, who had never done a bad take since she joined the crew, had actually failed here. She kept doing bad takes because the performance that she couldn’t struggle to get up with was not realistic enough.
Mingguan also had a headache. He couldn’t blame Jiang Xun.
No one had expected Jiang Xun to be so strong.
He was still not satisfied with this one. Mingguan thought of an idea. “How about this? Jiang Xun, when you are getting up, and your knees are just one or two centimeters off the ground, you two can push Jiang Xun back on her knees. At that time, Jiang Xun, you don’t have to use too much strength.”
“After that, shoot Jiang Xun’s left knee,” Mingguan said to Extra A.
“Jiang Xun, your left knee is naturally knelt on the ground. You can’t get up like this.”
“Alright.” Jiang Xun nodded.
The props team checked the props of the gun and confirmed that it was a blank before handing it to Extra A.
According to Mingguan’s instructions, this scene finally passed smoothly.
The next one was that the people of the Sixth Bureau were reciting Niannian’s crimes from the side, making Niannian admit to it.
However, Niannian would not admit it no matter what.
Hence, they let the executioner cut off her flesh and let all the people see that this was the outcome of resisting them.
Of course, the prop knives here were fake, and they were just for show.
The executioner held a long knife. He raised it high, and swung it down.
According to Mingguan’s request, the knife was blunt and was a prop for the crew.
But for the sake of realism, it had to slide down Jiang Xun’s arm.
Then, he would use special effects to create a scene of Jiang Xun having a piece of her flesh cut off.
However, they still had to discuss how to weaken the presentation of this bloody and violent scene. Otherwise, even if they did it, this part would not pass the review easily and would probably be deleted.
Just as the long knife was about to fall, the blade was illuminated by the sun and reflected on Jiang Xun’s face.
Jiang Xun’s eyes narrowed slightly. She sensed the knife’s radiance and dodged to the side instantly.
The two extras thought that this was disciple Jiang Xun’s way of showing off, so they tried even harder to stop her.
However, when Jiang Xun really exerted her strength, the combined strength of the two extras could not beat her.
Jiang Xun’s hands were originally behind her back and cuffed.
Jiang Xun couldn’t stretch her hands freely, and her feet were shackled.
She simply bent down and fell to the ground. She straightened her legs, kicked the two extras away, and rolled away to avoid the falling long knife.
The long knife hit the concrete ground with a clang, and the collision was followed by a sharp and harsh friction sound.
Everyone’s expression changed. When Jiang Xun stood up, Mingguan asked in confusion, “Jiang Xun, what were you acting out just now? That knife is fake. Don’t be afraid. Don’t dodge.”
Mingguan subconsciously thought that Jiang Xun’s body might have reacted instinctively when she sensed danger.
At this moment, Mufeng strode over.
He knew Jiang Xun too well. Jiang Xun must have felt the danger, so she took action.
If it was just acting, Jiang Xun would not be like this.
There had been many fight scenes in Jiang Xun’s previous films, but she had never been in such a situation.
“What’s wrong?” Mufeng rushed over and asked.
“This knife is not a prop.” Jiang Xun’s face darkened as she walked to the actor playing the executioner.
The actors were all dumbfounded. They were holding their knives in a daze, not knowing what was going on.
Seeing Jiang Xun coming over with a dark face, he was so frightened by her aura that he stood rooted to the ground. He loosened his grip and the long knife fell to the ground with a clang.
Jiang Xun picked up the long knife that had just fallen to the ground and walked over to ask the staff in charge of the props, “Do you have any hemp ropes, wooden sticks, or anything that you don’t need? As long as it can be cut?”
The staff member nodded and brought over a prop broom.
…
It was a large broom with a bamboo handle used to sweep the road.
“Thank you,” Jiang Xun said and took the broom.
She held the handle of the broom in one hand and wielded the long knife in the other as she quickly swung it downwards.

“Swish!” The broom handle was cleanly cut into two by the long knife, and the lower part fell to the ground with a clatter.
Mingguan’s eyes widened in shock as he looked at the broom that had been cut in half.
Mufeng’s face darkened as he picked up the broom. He looked at the cut. “This cut is really sharp. The cut of the broom handle is so clean and neat. There’s not even a bit of splinters on it.”
Mingguan rushed over and his face darkened when he saw the cut.
“According to the director’s request, the knife won’t really hurt me. But if you stick it to my arm, with how sharp this knife is, it will definitely cut my arm.”
Jiang Xun used her palm to act as the long knife as a demonstration. “Moreover, if the cross-section slips down like this, it will cut a large area of my entire arm. It might even cut off a layer of skin directly.”
“I’m an actor, and I need to play all kinds of roles. It’s best not to have any scars on my face or body, not to mention such a large cut. Once it’s done, my skin will be gone. Even if it’s a skin transplant, it’s impossible to look as if it’s never been injured, without any traces.”
Jiang Xun’s face darkened. “The other party doesn’t dare to take my life, but they want to ruin my career.”
…
“Who’s in charge of this knife!” Mingguan hurriedly shouted.
He knew the severity of this matter.
Although this was Jiang Xun’s last scene, and Jiang Xun’s injury would not affect the filming process, it would have a great impact on Jiang Xun’s career.
This person did not want to affect the filming process, but they also wanted to ruin Jiang Xun.
Mingguan’s first suspect was Youlan.
Youlan didn’t get along with Jiang Xun, and Youlan happened to be on set.
She didn’t want to affect the progress of the movie, but she also wanted to ruin Jiang Xun.
