new kung fu king

Chapter 2 Setting Short-Term Goals
Because of Wang Xiaohu's illness, the 13-year-old Yuen Biao had to go to the set to become a dragon and tiger martial artist in order to pay for the daily medicine. Wang Xiaohu was very moved when he learned about it. After becoming famous, he also strongly recommended his seniors. Now it seems that it is not fake at all. Even a wimp like Yuan Hu gets sick and Yuen Biao makes money to take care of him.

You must know that the work of dragon and tiger martial arts is very hard. In Hong Kong in the 70s, it was considered a relatively basic job, and it was also subject to certain discrimination. I will vigorously oppose it, not for anything else, because this industry is the most difficult and tiring, and the salary I get is also the least. I often get 5 Hong Kong dollars after working hard and being beaten like sandbags for a day, which is not considered a whole body. Pain and hard work are fine, the main reason is that this industry has no future.

Yuen Biao is young, but his body is well developed. In fact, most of the disciples who followed Yu Zhanyuan's training are relatively precocious. They go through a lot of training every day. Although they don't eat well, they can eat enough, so most of them The body is very strong, isn't Sammo Hung tall and fat because of being fed?

Yuen Biao first found Jackie Chan and Yuan Hua after returning to Hong Kong. At this time, Jackie Chan was not called Jackie Chan, but Yuanlou, or Chen Gangsheng directly. They did not go to the United States with their master Yu Zhanyuan. Instead, under the introduction of Han Yingjie, he went to work as a dragon and tiger martial artist on the set of Shaw Brothers Film Company, and he was paid five Hong Kong dollars a day.After Yuen Biao found them, he naturally also worked as a dragon and tiger martial artist, playing the role of a prisoner who was shot, a dead body, or a minion soldier who was beaten by the protagonist on the set.

"A Biao, I want to work as a dragon and tiger martial artist after I recover. Please tell me when you see Yuan Lou." Wang Xiaohu said to Yuan Biao after much consideration.

In his previous life, Wang Xiaohu was also engaged in this industry. Of course, the salary of a martial arts stand-in back then was much higher than in this era, not to mention that Wang Xiaohu was still the king of stand-ins, and he could do many thrilling and difficult moves.

Yuen Biao nodded and said, "Yes, but Ah Hu was always lazy in the past, I'm afraid you won't be able to bear this hardship." Yuan Biao's worry was not unreasonable, and Wang Xiaohu also understood a little bit, he had seen Yuan Hu often slacking off in his dream , is the student with the worst kung fu among the Seven Little Fortunes, and he entered the industry late. After only half a year with Yu Zhanyuan, he caught up with the decline of drama.

Wang Xiaohu said with a smile: "A Biao, you don't have to worry about this, I can endure hardships, and I will resume training from tomorrow."

The recovery training that Wang Xiaohu mentioned is of course not the leg presses, one-horse horses, hanging voices, somersaults and other movements taught by Yu Zhanyuan in the past. He has his own training plan. In his previous life, he was a master of Wing Chun and also a master of Jeet Kune Do The trainer, he was deeply stimulated after seeing Bruce Lee's movie. When he was 15 years old, he pestered his family to send him to the Wing Chun Martial Arts Hall to receive training, and he insisted on training for more than ten years. Naturally, he was too familiar with Wing Chun , whether fighting or sparring on weekdays, no one else is his opponent.

Through a simple inspection just now, Wang Xiaohu found that Yuanhu's body still has some merits. At least the ligaments are better than his previous self under the attack of Zhanyuan rattan and feather duster. It is undoubtedly good news for him, and it can save him a lot of time to rebuild the foundation. He decided to start Wing Chun training tomorrow.

At that time, there were very few recreational activities, so Wang Xiaohu and Yuen Biao went to bed before eight o'clock in the evening. Yuen Biao was very tired after working hard all day, and fell asleep soundly as soon as he lay on the bed, but Wang Xiaohu couldn't fall asleep because of tossing and turning. It's more of a kind of excitement than worrying!
As a film and television worker, although Wang Xiaohu was just a stand-in and only got a chance to play a villain supporting role before he was reborn, he has quite in-depth research on Hong Kong film and television works, especially Hong Kong martial arts action films. The training is to revisit several movies, in order to be able to understand the industry, analyze the design of the action and fighting style, and every time he watches a movie, he makes detailed notes on the action and style of the movie.

Even if he watched a movie several times, he would take notes, and then compare the notes before and after to analyze the points of attention and the feelings at that time when watching each time. There are several boxes of manuscript paper piled up in his room, and the level of some notes has reached a professional level.

It is these accumulated notes that let Wang Xiaohu know very clearly that in Hong Kong in the 70s, the film industry still focused on martial arts in ancient costumes. The Huang Feihong series played by the Iron Triangle played by Dahua is the most popular among the audience.

These martial arts films are very boring in Wang Xiaohu's eyes from the eyes of later generations. Not to mention the old-fashioned movements, often two people can't tell the winner after a long fight. Fighting style is his favorite. Of course, Jet Li's chic and elegant movements are also very enjoyable, but they lack practicality. The visual impact on the audience and the aesthetics of violence cannot be fully interpreted.

There are two things that make Wang Xiaohu most excited and unable to fall asleep.

One is that Hong Kong film and television dramas are still in a delicate era at this time. It is now the end of September 1971. Bruce Lee's "Brother Tangshan" will be released in October. This word is written in English, and Wang Xiaohu also knows an important thing, that is, Hong Jinbao, Jackie Chan, Yuan Hua and others have also participated in the filming of "Jing Fu Men" and "Enter the Dragon", and Jackie Chan is still in "Jing Fu Men" In "Enter the Dragon", he will act as the stand-in for Suzuki Hiroshi who was kicked out by Bruce Lee. Sammo Hung will fight Bruce Lee at the beginning of "Enter the Dragon", and Yuan Hua will also act as Bruce Lee's stand-in for somersaulting in the film.

Since they can all make movies with their idol Bruce Lee, of course they can get close to the idol as well!Thinking of this, Wang Xiaohu was as excited as that, and this was the main reason why he insisted on letting Yuan Biao take him to be a dragon and tiger martial artist.

Another thing is that after the death of the idol Bruce Lee, the Hong Kong film and television industry wanted to create another Bruce Lee. Life trajectory, as one of the Seven Little Fortunes and the reborn Wang Xiaohu naturally would not give up this opportunity!How to say he is also a reborn person, and he is familiar with the future development direction of Hong Kong film and television.

In my previous life, I did my best and didn't get the director's appreciation. Since we have such good conditions in this life, we must not waste any more!At this time, Wang Xiaohu has no more complaints, and his mind is full of how to integrate into this circle as soon as possible.
