Chapter 262 Old Wen's Transformation

Wang Xiaohu and his team first arrived in Los Angeles and found Winterdur, who was supervising the post-production of the English version of "Enter the Dragon". This was a plan he had agreed with Bruce Lee before leaving Hong Kong. You can't go wrong with the help of Winterdur, an old Hollywood fritter.

When Winterdur was filming "Enter the Dragon" in Hong Kong, he had had enough of Wang Xiaohu's domineering, but after returning to the United States, when he handed over the samples to the Warner Bros. executives for review, the quality of the samples was unanimously recognized by the company. Thinking that this is a rare film, Winterdur really admired Wang Xiaohu, because with this opportunity, his low position in the company has been more stable, and the company has decided to let him be responsible for the relationship with Hong Kong. The important task of cooperating to shoot a Kung Fu movie.

Therefore, even if Winterdur has any prejudice against Stallone, he is still willing to help Wang Xiaohu because of the relationship between Wang Xiaohu and Bruce Lee.As soon as they got off the plane, Winterdur and Paul Seile warmly embraced Wang Xiaohu. "Tiger, welcome to Los Angeles again." "Angie, you look so beautiful today!"

"Thank you." Zhao Yazhi replied with a faint smile.

"Old Wen, how is the matter entrusted to you a few days ago?" Wang Xiaohu had already woken up from the effect of sleeping pills. The thing he entrusted Winterdur to do was to recruit actors for "Rocky". The method of recruiting actors this time is very different from the previous ones. Wang Xiaohu directly calls for actors by name.

Winterdur shrugged his shoulders, showing some disappointment in his eyes, and glanced at Stallone behind Wang Xiaohu, he seemed hesitant to speak.

Wang Xiaohu frowned slightly and said, "Old Wen, just say what you have to say, don't worry too much."

Stallone scratched his head in embarrassment, it seems that this matter must have something to do with him.

"Well, I hope Mr. Sylvester will not be affected, Tiger, because of your amazing behavior in the "Enter the Dragon" casting interview last time, the black actor Carl Weathers on your list is not I am willing to play the role of boxing champion Apollo." Winterdur was very cautious when speaking, and the month-long cooperation made him know that Wang Xiaohu is absolutely the master of what he says, for fear that he will be irritable.

Unexpectedly, Wang Xiaohu just frowned, and asked lightly: "Where are the other actors? Boot Young who plays the old coach Mickey in the boxing gym, Talia Shire, the cashier at the pet store, and the slaughterhouse worker How is Bugis Medes doing?"

Paul Shearer is mainly responsible for the public relations tasks of these three actors, so he answered first: "They have no problem, as long as the schedule and salary can be negotiated, they are very willing to play the role of Rocky."

Wang Xiaohu said while walking: "OK! As long as the list of these three people is finalized, our film can be shot smoothly."

"If there is no boxing champion, how can we film the final duel between Rocky and Apollo?" Stallone was a little anxious at the moment. Wang can't bring out Rocky's tenacity.

Wang Xiaohu stopped and looked at Stallone with a faint smile: "Sylvester, your training volume will increase in the future. Since Carl Weathers gave up a chance to become famous, I will find you another one." Real boxers come to fight!"

"A real boxer?" Stallone's expression was still so dull, unable to grasp what Wang Xiaohu said just now.

But Winterdur and Paul Seile were secretly stunned, this guy really dared to speak, why did he give up a chance to become famous if he didn't participate in the performance!However, with the excellent performance of "Enter the Dragon", they can't say anything. Anyway, they think that this young man from the East sometimes speaks a little arrogantly!

"Yes!" Wang Xiaohu said with a smile: "I want to find you a real boxer, no one is more suitable than him! Old Wen, please help me find a boxer named Chuck Wippner , maybe he is still unknown now, but please help me find him!"

No one knows the inspiration for "Rocky" better than Wang Xiaohu. In 1975, Stallone created it in a week after seeing the famous boxing match between Muhammad Ali and Chuck Wipner in a motel. of.

At that time, Chuck Wipner was still an unknown player in the boxing ring, but he unexpectedly persisted until the No.15 round before being knocked down by boxing champion Ali. Before the match, some reporters questioned whether Wipner could survive, and Wipner categorically He replied: "I am a survivor in my life. If I can survive in the Marine Corps, then Ali's fist is not to be feared." Sylvester Stallone was deeply moved by Wipner's bravery and tenacity. A week after the fight, he called Wipner and announced that he would make a movie of the amazing fight.

Chuck Wipner is the prototype of Rocky!It's just that the battle of the century between Chuck Wipner and Ali will take another two years to take place, and the prototype will be used as the villain. I believe Wipner will be happy with this opportunity to become famous.

"Okay! This is easy to do, you know I'm a boxing fan!" Winterdur patted his chest and said, "Tiger, to be honest, I'm very curious about your script now, if, I said if If possible, may I have a sneak peek?"

"Of course." Wang Xiaohu nodded and said, "Actually, I still want you to be the producer of this film. Who told me to have you as my only friend in Hollywood!"

"Thank you for your trust! I am happy to serve you." Winterdur showed great enthusiasm and opened the car door for Wang Xiaohu with a smile.

Yes, although "Enter the Dragon" has not been released, he has great confidence in the film, and Wang Xiaohu has already started filming in Hollywood, which means that there is still more room for them to cooperate in the future. He is now eager to The relationship with Wang Xiaohu is more harmonious.

Wang Xiaohu and his team first went to the editing room of Warner Bros. to check the post-processing work of the English version of "Enter the Dragon". After all, no one in Hollywood knows how to make kung fu and martial arts more beautiful and more attractive to the audience than Wang Xiaohu.

Wang Xiaohu has a need for others, so he naturally cooperates fully with the editor. After all, how the quality of the English version of "Enter the Dragon" affects the box office results, he accounts for half of the box office revenue, how can he not be active.

After a busy afternoon and reluctantly enjoying a Western meal, Wang Xiaohu and Zhao Yazhi traveled together in Los Angeles. You must know that Zhao Yazhi came this time purely for the pleasure of traveling. Stop at a major attraction.

"Azhi, we will arrive in Philadelphia in a few days, and we will have 20 days to enjoy leisurely there to satisfy your travel dreams." Wang Xiaohu said softly while hugging Zhao Yazhi apologetically.

Zhao Yazhi shook her head, looked at him with big understanding eyes and said: "Actually, it's nothing. Although I only have one afternoon, I am very happy. It doesn't matter where you travel or how long you travel. The key is whether you are with the person you like. Together, I think that's enough!"

In contrast, she knows how to weigh the proportion of tourism and her husband's career.Such a considerate wife makes Wang Xiaohu shout happiness in his heart, where can he find a good wife like A Zhi!
Wang Xiaohu was thinking about the progress of the filming, and also had to take into account the release of "Enter the Dragon", so he didn't stay in Los Angeles for a long time. On December 12th, he took Stallone to Philadelphia, and the last-rate boxer Chuck Viper accept.

Chuck Wippner was very grateful for Wang Xiaohu’s name-calling to participate in the filming of boxing-type movies. On the plane to Philadelphia, he chattered: “Boss, where did you know my name? I retired from the Marine Corps not long ago. Just entered the boxing industry, still in the training stage."

"It's very simple. I think your potential is not bad." Wang Xiaohu said with a drowsy mind after taking a small sleeping pill: "I don't know what you were like before, but you will become an excellent boxer in the future. Believe in your potential!"

"Chuck, trust the boss, you and I are newcomers, if the boss doesn't appreciate it, I'm afraid I'm still worried about finding a chance to be a part-time actor!" The taciturn Stallone said in vague words: "The boss is a very powerful person." Kung fu master."

"Really? Is it better than our instructor?" Chuck asked suspiciously. The instructor he was talking about was naturally an instructor of the Marine Corps.

"If your instructor can knock someone flying two or three meters with one punch."

"Of course he can! It's all a trick for us."

Stallone fixed his fist on Chuck's chest across the seat: "What if I say this? With a bang, you will fly two or three meters away."

"Uh!" Chuck's eyes widened: "Oh God, is the boss a monster? As far as I know, only Bruce Lee can do that!"

"In fact, the boss is Bruce Lee's brother." Stallone replied indifferently.

"Damn it, you didn't tell me! I admire Bruce Lee so much!"

Philadelphia is the oldest and most historic city in the United States, ranking fourth among American cities, where the Declaration of Independence was drafted and signed, and where the first and second Continental Congresses were held.The draft of the U.S. Constitution was also drafted and signed in Philadelphia, and it is also the birthplace of the American flag. With the passage of time and the development of industry, the importance of Philadelphia has gradually faded, but it cannot stop him from being a tourist attraction. Every year, countless tourists pour in from all over the United States, all of whom come to appreciate the birthplace of this country.

At around 1972 pm on December 12, 12, Wang Xiaohu rubbed his somewhat confused eyes, and set foot on this land with Zhao Yazhi in his arms. Behind him were two newcomers who had no reputation in Hollywood at all.
　I'm very sorry, the update is a bit late tonight. Well, today I went with Xiao Xiaomi to get the "Deptinus" vaccine. The little guy didn't cry when he got the injection. It's a shame for me, but he pissed all over me on the way back ,Uh!
