"Mr. Wang, can you make me famous?"

"Aren't you already famous now?"

"No, the fame I'm talking about is the kind that resonates deeply with people, not like now. Right now, I'm just a vase in the eyes of people all around the world..." Bolani said ambitiously, "I want to act in movies, I want to appear on the big screen, I want to be hugely successful in Hollywood, I want to become an Oscar-winning actress..."

Wang Xiaoqiang smiled, "No problem, I can help you achieve all that. Come here, darling, ..."

Bolani paused for a moment, but she was a smart woman. She knew the power of Wang Xiaoqiang, and that if he was willing to help her, she could definitely fulfill her desires.

So, she approached Wang Xiaoqiang...

Wang Xiaoqiang didn't break his word and immediately had Anderi arrange for Bolani to appear on the big screen.

Anderi had a film company in the United States and was in good terms with a famous international director named Elton.

Anderi conveyed his intentions to Elton and asked for a favor. Elton did not let Anderi down and immediately crafted an action movie for Bolani, glamorous, thrilling, and meaningful.

After the script was finished, Anderi brought it to Wang Xiaoqiang for review. Wang Xiaoqiang felt it was indeed thrilling, but too glamorous, with too many explicit scenes. If it were performed like that, even though Bolani wouldn't be touched by the lead male, she would nearly have been touched by the male protagonist all over her body. If it really went on like that, Wang Xiaoqiang definitely wouldn't want her anymore. After expressing such concerns, Anderi immediately contacted director Elton.

Director Elton was very angry when he heard it. Originally, he personally crafted a film for a model who was not professionally trained as an actress, which was already an exception and quite an honor. Yet, there were still criticisms and complaints. Ultimately, Elton was displeased and told Anderi straightforwardly, "Mr. Anderi, this movie is just like this. It can only be this way to make the female lead famous. She lacks a solid foundation; to grab the spotlight, sacrifices are necessary. Put yourself in the audience's shoes, watching an actress who isn't very skilled. You can't expect something too artsy, especially for a model like Bolani. Of course, people want to see revealing and explicit scenes... If Bolani's boyfriend doesn't want her to have physical contact with other men, then he should just play the role himself. Honestly, other than Shi Tailong, no one else could really play it..."

Anderi responded with a dismissive laugh, "Mr. Elton, that's a bit of an exaggeration. Bolani's boyfriend could possibly act it; it's just that he might not be willing to..."

Director Elton smirked, "Mr. Anderi, you're always serious. What's gotten into you today? Alright, I'll take it as a joke then."

Anderi said, "Alright, I'll make a call to see if Mr. Wang is willing to act..."

Anderi dialed Wang Xiaoqiang, explained the situation, and asked if he was interested in acting.

When Wang Xiaoqiang heard this, he suddenly became interested, so he agreed.

The next day, under Anderi's arrangement, Wang Xiaoqiang met with Director Elton.

Upon meeting Wang Xiaoqiang, Elton immediately shook his head and said no,

Seeing Elton display a look of disdain in front of Wang Xiaoqiang and directly dismissing him, Anderi's heart leaped to his throat. He immediately tried to give Elton a signal, but the renowned director, being straightforward, did not buy Anderi's tact, still showing disdain and directly said to Wang Xiaoqiang, "Firstly, you are Chinese, which will significantly cut down the box office, just like how you Chinese people don't like watching movies with foreigners as the protagonists. Secondly, your appearance isn't striking, not even comparable to Jackie Chan; you have no muscles to show. Even if your Kung Fu is quite decent and you can perform the combat scenes well, the audience would still think it's fake, just computer-generated imagery. So, I'm sorry…"

Hearing this, Anderi felt a wave of disappointment and racked his brain for an idea, unexpectedly coming up with a brilliant one, "Mr. Elton, I have an idea that could compensate for this. Let Mr. Wang play the lead role and Shi Tailong the antagonist. This way, the two of them will have scenes together. We won't use special effects; let them actually fight it out, the kind where you can hear the sounds of punches landing on flesh…"

Elton's eyes lit up, "Hmm, that's a good idea. However, I do worry that Mr. Wang might get crippled by Shi Tailong, haha. Of course, having Shi Tailong play the villain, he might not agree, and even if he does, he might not be too happy about it. It would be troublesome if he takes out his frustration on Mr. Wang…"

Wang Xiaoqiang tugged at his lips, "Uh, I actually hope he does cripple me,"

Seeing Wang Xiaoqiang showing interest, Anderi immediately slapped the table, "No matter the cost, we must hire Shi Tailong…"

And so, it was settled. Although Shi Tailong was a big Hollywood star, he couldn't resist the lure of money. Having played the good guy his whole life, he was eager to try out a villainous role, especially as he was curious to see just how formidable this Wang Xiaoqiang from China could be—could he possibly be more incredible than the legendary Bruce Lee?

The film's Chinese title is "Super Assassin." Assassin Tan completed another mission with his experienced techniques. For a long time, Tan adhered to four principles that allowed him to ruthlessly complete one mission after the other, remaining unseen by everyone. However, such a lonely, nomadic life was wearing him down, leading Tan to decide to go to the United States for his final three missions. In the glaring lights of American streets, Tan picked local pickpocket Conan as his assistant and interpreter, responsible for liaising with American employers. Tan quickly completed his first mission at the cost of a scratched right arm and sought help at a pharmacy, where he met Nia. Her gentle demeanor sparked feelings of love in Tan's heart… Conan was beaten by a group of thugs along the way to meet an employer, his bruised body moved Tan, who then taught him combat skills. Tan's own ruthless principles began to waver. Tan's ultimate mission was to assassinate a daring and righteous politician—the words of Conan echoing in his ears made him hesitate. Meanwhile, the American employer, fearing exposure, wanted to silence anyone involved. Tan's battle with the mafia employer was inevitable…

As an assassin, one should not have love or enjoy a normal life and love. Once an assassin yearns for love and life, he is not far from death—that is the movie's main theme.

Wang Xiaoqiang plays the assassin, Bolani the female lead, and Shi Tailong a police detective.

Before filming began, Shi Tailong approached Wang Xiaoqiang; he wanted to spar with Wang Xiaoqiang to see if the man competing with him for the lead role truly had genuine skills.

Wang Xiaoqiang certainly would not refuse, so with all the crew looking on, Wang Xiaoqiang and Shi Tailong faced off.

"Take your shot," Shi Tailong gestured with his hand, motioning for Wang Xiaoqiang to strike him. He then intended to lift Wang Xiaoqiang onto his shoulders within one move and follow with a shoulder throw, making the young man taste bitterness.

"Senior, you're older, so I'll let you make three moves first," Wang Xiaoqiang said.

"Ha ha..."

Boom, everyone laughed, except Anderi did not. To them, Wang Xiaoqiang seemed like a kindergartner being mischievous with an adult.

"Alright," Shi Tailong said in a buzzing voice. He then stretched out his hands, attempting to grab Wang Xiaoqiang.

Wang Xiaoqiang didn't move; he just stood there.

When Shi Tailong tried to grab Wang Xiaoqiang with the intention of lifting and throwing him out,

he quickly realized he had underestimated Wang Xiaoqiang. His robust arms, while trying to lift Wang Xiaoqiang from the shoulders, found that Wang Xiaoqiang was as immovable as if his feet had grown roots.

Not a hair out of place.

Shi Tailong growled lowly, exerting all his strength, hugged Wang Xiaoqiang, and pulled hard as if uprooting a tree. Had it been an actual tree, he would have uprooted it by now.

But...

Wang Xiaoqiang was still...

Not a hair out of place.

Everyone was stunned!

This, this is impossible.

Shi Tailong was known for his strength. How could he not even lift a small Chinese guy?

Shi Tailong was even more surprised, but he was self-aware. Seeing this situation, he immediately released Wang Xiaoqiang and bowed his fists, "Mr. Wang, you are a notch above me. I am thoroughly bested..."

At that moment, someone snapped out of their stupor and exclaimed, "No way, he's giving up just like that?"

Shi Tailong went away with a defeated look. He had never felt so dejected before.

This Wang Xiaoqiang, how could he be so formidable? He must be the best at Chinese Kung Fu, even better than Bruce Lee. If only I weren't so old, I would definitely seek to become his disciple.

The process was quite uninteresting, but everyone present, including the director, dared not underestimate Wang Xiaoqiang anymore.

The filming finally began.

Although Wang Xiaoqiang had no acting skills, playing an assassin really didn't require much acting; looking cool was enough. However, what nobody anticipated was how powerfully Wang Xiaoqiang acted. Many of the action sequences didn't need a retake and were completed in one go; for instance, one scene involved grabbing a rope from the rooftop to jump down, but Wang Xiaoqiang didn't use any safety measures and just jumped.

Whoosh!

Wang Xiaoqiang used the flat surfaces of the building in mid-air to slow his momentum, then just jumped straight down.

This shot was initially planned to be created with computer graphics, but Wang Xiaoqiang completed it instantaneously.

While editing this shot, director Elton discovered something terrifying. When Wang Xiaoqiang jumped, he didn't actually grab the rope; his hands were just circling around the rope as if pretending. He didn't need the rope at all—

jumping down from over thirty stories high without a rope, what kind of concept is this?

Director Elton was thoroughly shocked.
