The Borui Club was an industry of the Li family in Beijing. Its original intention was to train and cultivate security talents. The club had a gym, a swimming pool, a fighting hall, an indoor shooting range, and so on. The facilities were complete and first-class.
Most of the coaches and staff in the club were retired from the army. In addition to meeting the needs of the Li family, the trained security guards also took on some tasks, so there were usually a lot of people staying in the club.
Last year, Lu Chen was taken to the Borui Club by Li Mushi. The special environment and atmosphere here gave him an idea and he put it into practice.
That was, Lu Chen recruited a team from the Borui Club and trained them according to his own intentions.
This team was not used as bodyguards for Lu Chen. He didn't have such a big show and didn't need it. It was used to shoot a martial arts action film!
The martial arts action film that Lu Chen wanted to shoot came from the memory of the dream world. In the dream world, there had been countless wonderful and classic martial arts and action films at home and abroad, which were treasures that made people's blood boil.
Lu Chen's big IP plan was closely related to these memories, but he wanted to reproduce the classics in the dream world. In reality, there were no other conditions, but it was difficult to find suitable martial arts action film actors.
In Lu Chen's own world, martial arts films had appeared in both Xiangjiang and China, but it was like a flash in the pan, and did not cause much of a storm before disappearing. Now, what was popular were the mythical fantasy dramas with special effects flying everywhere.
As for action films, the situation was better than martial arts films, but they also belonged to the ranks of niche films. In today's domestic and foreign film market, drama films adapted from popular novels, superhero films, and science fiction and magic films were the mainstream.
The market share in this area was huge. A blockbuster could easily earn tens or even billions of yuan at the box office, so the competition was naturally extremely fierce. Basically, it was controlled by the giants in the industry.
Therefore, if Lu Chen wanted to get a share of the film market, and he had to control his own destiny, he could only find another way. He chose to start in Hong Kong because he had chosen a suitable opportunity, and the training of people with the help of the Borui Club was a plan in advance.
There were a total of 12 members in this team. The usual training expenses and salary were all borne by Lu Chen himself. After a year of preparation, it was about time for them to show their usefulness.
It was Lu Chen's "Lu Family Squad"!
Lu Chen didn't expect Li Mushi to bring it up. He asked curiously, "How did you know?"
"Don't treat me like an idiot!"
Li Mushi glared at Lu Chen and said, "Although I don't know much about it, I know it's not fun for you to spend so much money on this team. Now that you've gone to Hong Kong to shoot a movie, they must go there to help, right?"
Lu Chen was impressed. "That's right. My first movie in Hong Kong is about to start. They are indispensable."
Li Mushi nodded. "Actually, everyone has already guessed it. If you don't say anything, they will become restless. No one from the army is willing to eat for free."
"Since you've given them a chance, then treat them well and don't let them down."
"They will also repay your hard work and loyalty!"
Li Mushi said the last few words very seriously.
Lu Chen also became serious. "Don't worry, I won't let the people who follow me down!"
Lu Chen was not just talking nonsense. Since he experienced that strange dream and set foot on the road to the entertainment industry, those who trusted him and followed him had never been disappointed.
The Lu Family Squad was built by Lu Chen at a great cost and effort. He definitely attached more importance to it than Li Mushi.
"That's good …"
Li Mushi said with a smile, "I believe your promise. In fact, there are many people who want to follow you. Wan Yong also wants to make a movie. He has asked me several times!"
Wan Yong was the coach in charge of fighting in the Borui Club. He was 35 years old and had been in the army for 10 years. He once won the championship of the military martial arts competition, so he was deeply valued by Li Mushi.
In the Borui Club, Wan Yong was undoubtedly the backbone of the club. Li Mushi was willing to let him go, which inevitably surprised Lu Chen. "Are you willing to let him go?"
Li Mushi said, "There is no reluctance. The main thing is that he has such an idea. When I asked him to come, I promised him that it would be up to him to leave or stay. Of course, I can't break my promise."
Lu Chen pondered and said, "Well, I'll ask him again. It's naturally the best if he can help me."
With Wan Yong's strength and prestige in the club, it was undoubtedly the best choice for him to be responsible for training and managing the Lu Family Squad, which could also save Lu Chen countless troubles.
In addition, Wan Yong's skills and image were actually quite suitable for shooting martial arts films and action films.
He could be the protagonist.
But he was the villain.
Thinking of this, Lu Chen couldn't help but smile.
He just didn't know what Wan Yong's expression would be when he understood his thoughts!
Happy or depressed?
Li Mushi was suspicious. "Your smile is very evil. What bad things are you thinking about?"
Lu Chen coughed, got up and said, "That's it. I'm going to find Brother Yong now."
Li Mushi was unhappy. "What's the hurry? Let's have dinner together tonight."
Lu Chen regretted. "I can't tonight. I have an appointment. How about I invite you to dinner tomorrow night?"
Li Mushi raised her eyebrows. "With your sister?"
Lu Chen was very sorry. "Oh, I remember that I have a dinner tomorrow night. I'll contact you another day!"
After that, Lu Chen quickly disappeared.
This guy …
Looking at his figure leaving in a hurry, a faint smile appeared on Li Mushi's lips.
In the fight club, Lu Chen found Wan Yong.
When he told Wan Yong the reason for his visit, Wan Yong agreed without hesitation. Moreover, he seemed extremely happy.
Lu Chen quickly said, "Don't be happy too early. I may need you to play the villain in my future movies. Are you willing?"
In fact, it didn't matter if Wan Yong was not willing. He could find another special actor to train.
It was just that Wan Yong was undoubtedly the most suitable candidate that Lu Chen could find now.
In this regard, Wan Yong only hesitated for a few seconds and replied decisively, "No problem. I'll be the villain!"
Lu Chen couldn't help but be curious. "Brother Yong, why do you want to make a movie with me?"
Ordinary people wanted to make movies for nothing more than to be famous, but Lu Chen felt that Wan Yong didn't seem like the kind of person who liked to be famous.
Wan Yong was a little embarrassed, but he still explained, "I heard that making movies is very profitable. I want to make more money."
Wan Yong's salary in the Borui Club was not low, but he had already settled in Beijing. His biggest wish was to buy a big house in Beijing so that his family could live comfortably.
However, everyone knew the housing prices in Beijing. Although Li Mushi valued Wan Yong very much, there was no reason to give him a house worth millions of yuan for free.
Therefore, after knowing that Lu Chen was training a team to make movies, he had an idea.
Lu Chen understood and said with a smile, "I see. Then believe me, it won't take many years for you to buy a house you like in Beijing!"
This was the promise that Lu Chen gave him.
