There was no time to delay. To prevent Liu Jianlong from going back on his word, Lu Zhixing immediately took him to the set to meet Director Han Ming and martial arts instructor Dong Yucheng.
He notified everyone at the first opportunity that the movie's lead actor had been found! It was decided to go with Liu Jianlong!
As for this choice, Dong Yucheng was actually quite satisfied.
From the perspective of a martial arts instructor, this was far more reliable than finding a regular actor with absolutely no combat experience!
In fact, in the circle of martial arts films, it's quite common for boxing champions to make cameo appearances as villains, contributing many classic scenes to the screen.
These boxing champions or combat experts, although not suitable to play lead roles due to their image, are very suitable for villain roles.
