Brother Dao Took the Entertainment Industry by Storm, Fans Beg Me Not to Kill Anymore

Chapter 263: What? Poaching the crew in public?

Actually, everyone initially thought this scene would be extremely difficult to shoot.

Because this scene was from Qi Xinyueʼs perspective as fabricated by Shu Yuxiu, the entire sequence naturally carried that fairytale filter found in young girlsʼ stories. It needed to make Shu Yuxiuʼs appearance immediately convincing, making people believe in the so-called love at first sight, that one glance could span eternity.

What kind of person could capture this young ladyʼs heart in such a short time?

This feeling was a delicate balance - one degree too much would become vulgar, descending into the stereotypical CEO entrance from idol dramas;one degree too little would feel fake, making it impossible for audiences to immerse themselves in the story and believe in Shu Yinyueʼs unique charm.

Fortunately, they encountered Xiao He.

Xiao Heʼs performance made them believe Shu Yuxiu truly existed, and made them believe that Qi Xinyue genuinely fell in love at that moment.

The roaring sounds on the racetrack perfectly masked her heartbeat, while the hunter who had set his trap in advance waiting for his prey to take the bait revealed a teasing smile from an unseen angle... This was the beginning of Shu Yuxiuʼs conquest of higher peaks, but it was also the start of Qi Xinyueʼs family destruction and personal ruin.

The contrast between these two perspectives would become even more striking when the final film was released.

Director Ning shot a few additional close-up shots, then happily announced to everyone that todayʼs filming had concluded successfully.

Another wave of cheers erupted on set.
Who wouldnʼt be happy about getting off work early?

Many people had been constantly busy with work since arriving on this island, and now they could finally spare some time to enjoy the leisure facilities at this resort.

Everyone looked at Xiao He with grateful expressions.

Ning Jiaqi walked up to Xiao He and said with a smile, ”You just arrived on the island today, so you must be tired. Go back early and get some rest.”

”Okay, thank you, Director Ning.”

Xiao He nodded to Ding Wanyu who was nearby, then turned and walked toward Liu Rulan waiting outside the filming area.

But before he could take more than a few steps, someone else stopped him.

Xiao He looked over and found it was OʼDeen, the very person he had just defeated in their racing showdown.

OʼDeen had lost his previous arrogance and now looked at Xiao He with respect: ”Youʼre really skilled, your driving technique is excellent. Why havenʼt you participated in related competitions before? Iʼve never heard of you.”

The competitions OʼDeen referred to naturally meant professional leagues or series events, platforms with broader reach that represented the ”mainstream stage” in their industry. Generally, participating in these competitions meant you were considered an ”insider” in their circle.

Xiao He shook his head directly: ”I really havenʼt participated in any related competitions.”

The few races he had run before were only to upgrade his certificate levels. Xiao He hadnʼt planned to use such competitions to promote himself, so he had driven particularly low-key throughout those events. Even the domestic racing scene hadnʼt heard of him, let alone internationally.

But OʼDeenʼs expression changed repeatedly as he looked at Xiao He, then he asked immediately: ”Did you really only learn for one week?”

Xiao He explained tactfully: ”Iʼve had my driverʼs license for many years.”

As for how even after getting his license during university he rarely drove... that didnʼt need to be mentioned.

OʼDeen indeed misunderstood, his furrowed brow relaxing somewhat: ”So thatʼs how it is...”

He assumed Xiao He had previously participated in unofficial races domestically.

Unofficial races referred to privately organized competitions that werenʼt officially sanctioned or approved.

To put it bluntly, they were essentially illegal street racing.

These kinds of races had low barriers to entry and didnʼt have high professional requirements for drivers. Basically, with a driverʼs license and a car, you could start participating.

However, these types of competitions belonged to the gray area within their circle, explicitly prohibited on the surface. For professional race car drivers like them, participating in unofficial races was a violation of regulations. In serious cases, it could lead to suspension or revocation of their licenses, directly impacting their careers.

Out of appreciation for Xiao Heʼs driving skills, OʼDeen tried earnestly to persuade him: ”Your talent shouldnʼt be displayed here, but rather on professional racing tracks! If I remember correctly, participating in illegal street racing is also illegal in your country. As a public figure, breaking the law isnʼt good, right?”

Xiao He looked at him speechlessly.

He originally thought this guy was somewhat unconvinced, but never expected he came to persuade him to return to the right path...

What a character, it had been a long time since someone directly called him a criminal upon meeting.

Well, this guy guessed right, but there was no reward.

”You need evidence for your accusations!” Xiao Heʼs face turned cold as he waved the man away. ”I donʼt know, Iʼm not interested, I donʼt want to answer any of your questions right now. Please leave.”

”Whatʼs going on?”

Liu Rulan and Xiao Chen also came over.

”Hello, youʼre his agent, right? Do you know how much talent he has in racing?”

OʼDeen immediately shifted his attention to Liu Rulan, instinctively thinking women would be easier to talk to: ”You canʼt just rely on his looks to make a living. His driving skills should be displayed on broader platforms. What youʼre doing now is completely wasting his potential...”

Why be an actor! He should become a professional race car driver!

With Xiao Heʼs performance just now, forget putting him in their racing team - any other team would be fighting to have him.

OʼDeen absolutely couldnʼt stand seeing a geniusʼs development being delayed by something like acting.

Xiao He: ”...”

Liu Rulan: ”?”

Xiao Chen: ”Wow—”

”Letʼs go, donʼt mind him.” Xiao He directly signaled Liu Rulan to head back.

This kind of guy really made him speechless, who knew what was going through his mind.

”Wait, please really consider this carefully—”

OʼDeen tried to stop Xiao He, his eyes showing unprecedented enthusiasm.

Liu Rulan looked suspicious: ”What exactly is going on?”

Xiao He immediately tattled: ”Sister Liu, this guy says I shouldnʼt be filming here, that I should go with him to participate in more professional racing competitions.”

Instantly, Xiao Chen raised his guard: ”Sister Liu! Someoneʼs trying to poach from our team!”

Liu Rulanʼs expression immediately turned serious, her entire demeanor suddenly shifting as she stared at OʼDeen without speaking.

OʼDeen instinctively shrank his neck under Liu Rulanʼs stare.

”Uh, I was just asking first, because I think—”

Before OʼDeen could finish speaking, Liu Rulan directly turned around and called out to Xu Fuxue nearby, confidently reporting: ”Director Xu, whatʼs going on with this technical assistant actor? He actually came to our production team to poach people.”

Xu Fuxue was momentarily stunned, then let out an ”Ah.”

What?

Coming to their production team to poach people?

And poaching their most satisfactory male lead at that?

Xu Fuxue immediately raised his defensiveness and aggressiveness to the maximum: ”Who? Who is it?”

Who didnʼt want to live, trying to steal people right in their territory?

”Him—”

Liu Rulan and Xiao Chen simultaneously raised their hands, pointing at OʼDeen standing beside Xiao He.

The blond, blue-eyed foreign driver pointed at himself in confusion, once again witnessing the cunning nature of Chinese people, almost forgetting how to speak Mandarin: ”Me, sorry, not me, I didnʼt—”

”So itʼs you here!”

Xu Fuxue immediately came over angrily and grabbed OʼDeen: ”I wanted to say this earlier - although we did invite you here, please abide by our production teamʼs filming schedule, follow instructions, and donʼt randomly disrupt our filming site!”

”Uh uh, I didnʼt—”

”How can you say you didnʼt? Werenʼt you the one who drove out without following instructions earlier? Because you didnʼt follow commands, others followed and drove out too! Do you know you almost ruined our filming? This is very dangerous!”

”I can apologize for that! I was just testing at the time, wanting to see Xiao Heʼs capabilities, then planning to let him have a lap later—”

”Hehe, youʼd let him? I think you didnʼt get the chance to let him, did you? Come here, letʼs have a proper discussion about the contract! We signed directly with your racing team. If weʼre unsatisfied, we can replace you at any time!”

Xu Fuxue adopted a firm stance, directly blocking OʼDeen from leaving. Liu Rulan signaled to Xiao He and Xiao Chen, and the group immediately took the opportunity to leave.

On the way, Xiao Chen clicked his tongue in admiration: ”Brother Xiao, what other surprises do you have that we donʼt know about?”

Xiao He glanced sideways at him and smiled slightly: ”There are many things you donʼt know about me. If I told you, it would scare you to death.”

Xiao Chen: ...
