Chapter 185 Analysis of the Implementation of the Trade Union System

Xiaomi is going crazy!Power outage from 6pm to 8:[-]pm!I don’t know what the village is doing lately. It doesn’t stop three or five times a day, woo woo woo~~~ There are still [-] words left today! ——
The name of the Dragon and Tiger Martial Artists Guild is called Dragon and Tiger Gate, which somewhat reminds Wang Xiaohu of Donnie Yen's movie "Dragon and Tiger Gate" that he watched in his previous life. One of the protagonists in it is called Wang Xiaohu, who has the same name as himself. Rogue" changed.Using Dragon and Tiger Gate to name the trade union is somewhat irrelevant, but considering that Dragon and Tiger Warriors are a mixed group of dragons and snakes, among them there are many members of associations and hooligans. Dragon and Tiger Gate sounds more like a sect than a trade union.

The trade union has already existed in Hollywood, and it has multiple functions. Not only the actors' union, but also the directors' union, and even photography has its own union.

The actor union system mentioned by Bruce Lee is indeed very attractive. As long as actors join the union, their rights will be guaranteed, such as guaranteed rest time, fatigue problems will be solved, and the union will come forward to coordinate and obtain a certain amount of compensation for injuries and other issues. Because of the existence of the actors' union, the rights and interests of actors in the park are guaranteed, and the employer's actors' union is supervised, so actors belonging to the actors' union can safely and boldly devote themselves to film and television shooting.

The first bet that Bruce Lee made with Wang Xiaohu was about the actors' union. Unfortunately, he did not succeed. The reason is very simple. The special system of Hong Kong movies has led to many actors being the godsons and daughters of the director. The boss and the director are tightly in the palm of their hands. If they respond to Bruce Lee's call and join the actors' union, they will definitely be blocked by most actors in the film and television industry, and they will even be depressed from then on.And their concerns go far beyond this point. Bruce Lee is now very popular. If he can't get along in Hong Kong, he can pat his ass and go to Hollywood to develop. But what about these unionized actors?Where will their fate go?

Since the majority has to obey the majority in order to eat movies, let the big shots take care of eating crabs. They will join the actor's union when it really establishes its position in Hong Kong.

Wang Xiaohu has no ambition to set up any actors' union. The dragon and tiger martial arts union he has established now will be very different from the actors' union.

First of all, dragon and tiger warriors are the most common group in the film industry, and the least threshold group. Maybe your appearance is not handsome, maybe your acting skills are bad, but as long as you are willing to work hard, you are willing to suffer. Just find an acquaintance to introduce you and you will soon Able to become a member of Dragon and Tiger Warrior.

The low threshold means that dragon and tiger fighters enjoy different treatment than actors. It is an iron fact that the salary is low. The box lunch they eat is also far from that of third-rate actors, not to mention things like injuries during filming. Often I grit my teeth and persist, and I can't cry out if I have an injury, for fear that the director or martial arts instructor will not hire me.Wang Xiaohu was deeply touched by this point, and the Qi Xiaofu brothers around him even came here from the dragon and tiger martial arts master.However, there are still many young people who invest in the low-income industry of dragon and tiger martial arts every day, resulting in the number of dragon and tiger martial artists in the Hong Kong film industry reaching as many as a thousand.Didn’t more than 500 people rush to the Temple Street incident?

It was Wang Xiaohu's consideration of the above two points that he came up with the idea of ​​establishing the dragon and tiger martial arts union. It is impossible for a movie to be shot with only the main actors. Dragon and tiger martial artists are an indispensable part of Hong Kong film history. The disadvantaged groups who are protected, and now Wang Xiaohu has improved the overall quality of the Seven Little Fortunes team through his own actions. Sammo Hung, Yuen Biao, Yuan Hua, Yuan Heping, etc. among them can go outside to work as martial arts instructors and assistant directors, but They refused, why?Because other crews will not shoot films like Wang Xiaohu, and the treatment they receive cannot be compared with here. Didn’t Sammo Hung and Jackie Chan come back? The envy of Hong Kong Dragon and Tiger martial arts masters, so they came to seek refuge collectively, this is a very good opportunity!
Wang Xiaohu thinks that he has no reason not to seize this opportunity. Grandpa Mao once united the hardworking people to lay down the land of New China, so he can definitely gather thousands of dragon and tiger warriors in Hong Kong to promote the realization of his further goals.

Wang Xiaohu feels that this idea is entirely possible to develop in Hong Kong, because he knows that many future Hong Kong martial arts stars, martial arts instructors, and action directors have survived step by step from the dragon and tiger martial arts. The establishment of the dragon and tiger martial arts union means their own strength. Once strengthened, I can select a group of elites among these dragon and tiger warriors for key training and cultivation, so that they can grow up quickly.

Moreover, the group of dragon and tiger warriors who have monopolized the Hong Kong film industry is equivalent to indirectly holding the entire Hong Kong film in the palm of their own hands. This crazy idea greatly stimulated Wang Xiaohu, and made him so excited that he couldn't devote himself to filming all morning. , snickered many times and caused NG, even a layman like Ye Wen could see that something was wrong with him today.

"Xiaohu, what happy things have happened to you, why are you smiling so happily when you're NG?" Ye Wen asked Wang Xiaohu as he sat on the recliner and called Wang Xiaohu to his side.

Wang Xiaohu grinned in embarrassment and said: "Master Zu, it's not really a big deal, I just felt that some things were ridiculous, so I laughed, ha ha."

"You, hey, hurry up and finish the movie, I'm still waiting for my biographical film to be released!" Ye Wen scolded with a smile: "If you are still half-hearted, be careful I will let Chunliang spank your ass!"

"The apprentice knows it's wrong!" Wang Xiaohu shrank his neck, then turned around and continued to watch the filming of the next scene.

Ye Wen, played by Wang Xiaohu, stretched his waist and came to the wooden dummy. He saw the four big characters "My Wife" written on it, and walked from the room to the courtyard. The camera followed his appearance and turned to the courtyard. In the middle, Zhao Yazhi is painting with the ten-year-old Xingzi, and the camera cuts again. Wang Xiaohu sighs and says, "Hey, I don't know what's wrong with the weather in Foshan. It's hot and cold." On the stone bench.

Yuan Heping said in front of the camera: "Switch a group of cameras and focus on capturing Azhi's facial expressions, yes, that one glance."

Wang Xiaohu sat on a stone bench and accompanied Zhao Yazhi to watch Zhou Xingchi's painting.He asked in a deliberately accosting tone, "What are you painting, Zhun?" Xingzi gave him a blank look and immediately turned his head away.Zhao Yazhi said coldly: "You see, Ah Zhun is ignoring you, so you can spend more time with him when you have time." Wang Xiaohu hurriedly smiled awkwardly and nodded, "Okay!"

The small days of a family of three are so warm and enviable. This kind of situation even makes Wang Xiaohu feel that time and space are out of order. The kind of happiness and satisfaction shown on Zhao Yazhi's face made him think that this is what happened in real life. He took a few glances at Zhao Yazhi.

As if feeling his gaze, Zhao Yazhi raised his head and glanced at him, a faint smile appeared on his quiet face immediately, and then continued to pay attention to Huahua Xingzi with a happy expression.

"Ahu, Ahu, look up at the door, Abiao has been standing there for a long time!" Seeing that Wang Xiaohu didn't follow the action, Yuan Heping couldn't help loudly reminding Wang Xiaohu with his loudspeaker.

"Ah?" Wang Xiaohu touched his nose again in embarrassment, damn it, it's because of himself that it caused NG!Depressedly, he stood up and walked to the camera to look at the scene just now. He felt that the effect was not bad, so he waved his hand and said, "Next scene!"

The following scene is the big climax in the first half of "Ip Man". It is about Jin Shanzhao's arrogant appearance. But Jinshan finds a more violent counterattack, and Wu Chilin sees this and runs to Ip Man's house to ask for help.But Zhao Yazhi noticed it, and immediately glared at Yuen Biao with fierce eyes, and the latter left in a hurry.

This scene is also a foreshadowing in "Ip Man", and it is indeed very subtle. Wang Xiaohu can even imagine that after the film was released, the audience laughed when they saw this scene. short".

Uncle Qin drove the lunch all the way here. Since he was going to play a guest role as Ip Man's friend in the film, Uncle Qin felt that this role was very important. It was entirely because Director Wang appreciated him, so the quantity and quality of the boxed lunches were directly improved by two levels. , the whole family came to help, not to mention the enthusiasm.

Zhao Yazhi was a little worried when he saw the food piled up into a hill in the lunch box, so he said, "Uncle Qin, I have enough here, you should order more food for Xiaohu."

"It's good for girls to eat more. There are many, many more dishes!" Uncle Qin said, filling Wang Xiaohu's lunch box with two more pieces of beef before leaving satisfied. It is said that he is also a successful person who provides box lunches to all Hong Kong film crews. The person who can monopolize this business must be very discerning. He discovered early in the morning that Zhao Yazhi and the young director Wang are in a relationship, so he tried his best to curry favor.

After eating, Wang Xiaohu called Uncle Qin to the side and patted his bulging belly and said, "Uncle Qin, our lunch boxes are made according to the previous standard, so we don't need to make so much, and besides, you don't want to charge more money. Business is going to lose money!" There is no way, Zhao Yazhi can't eat those meals, he can only eat them for him, his stomach is full, it is definitely not an option to continue like this, so he has to discuss it with Uncle Qin, no need so enthusiastic.

Uncle Qin said haha: "It's okay, it's okay, brothers have enough food to have the strength to film. This small amount of money is nothing compared to Director Wang giving me a role in filming. Director Wang, you don't have to be polite to me, haha."

"Uh, I don't want to be polite to you, but my stomach is having trouble with me now."
