new kung fu king

Chapter 451

In fact, Wang Xiaohu said that only a martial arts director who has directed ten films can be qualified for the position of an action director. This is somewhat exaggerated, because this standard is measured in previous lives. Martial arts director can be competent as an action director.

In the Hong Kong film industry at that time, it took two years or even five years to rise from dragon and tiger martial arts master to middle martial arts and then to great martial arts. It takes three or four years, and then you can make five or six movies with a martial arts instructor or have been in martial arts instruction for more than five years before you can barely qualify for the position of martial arts instructor.

However, not everyone can go from martial arts instruction to directing. Looking at the entire film industry, only Liu Jialiang barely managed to become a director two years ago, and it was on the premise that Wang Xiaohu strongly recommended him to Run Run Shaw. The development of history Liu Jialiang will suffer for more than five years, and he will be the director of next year's "Mad Monkey" and "God Fight". (History has been revised by Wang Xiaohu, and Liu Jialiang is qualified to direct because of "God Strikes".)
Here you can see that this kind of apprenticeship system is also deeply rooted in the Hong Kong film industry, but Concord Film Company completely abandoned this kind of operation idea. First of all, after Wang Xiaohu was reborn, he fully cultivated Qi Xiaofu's cells in action design, so that they know what to play, In the general outline of why and how to fight, Yuan Heping and Sammo Hung have been in charge of it in the past few years. This kind of upgrading speed was enviable and jealous at the time.

What makes those grassroots dragon and tiger fighters even more happy is that the dragon and tiger martial arts union established by Wang Xiaohu is equivalent to the "Whampoa Military Academy" of martial arts instructors and martial arts actors. A batch of excellent martial arts instructors has become the "temple" in the hearts of dragon and tiger martial artists.

Accurate the pulse of the market and win the support of the most grassroots groups in the film industry. This is a disguised "surrounding the city from the countryside", which is the chess Wang Xiaohu has played in the past few years. This game is too big and too ambitious. I believe that in a few years The scope of this monopoly will be further expanded.

Then Wang Xiaohu let Jackie Chan, Yuen Biao, Yuan Hua and other brothers come to the front of the stage. It can be said that this training process has always been interspersed in every film of Concord Film Company. Now Jet Li has become Wang Xiaohu's apprentice. Jet Li's brothers Yuan Kui and Yuan De are necessary to play their roles.

The car drove into the base slowly, and the place was still the same as before. The seventh batch of trainees were receiving intensive training. Every time they came here, they would hear fifty employees shouting "Brother Tiger" neatly and loudly. Let Wang Xiaohu smile with relief, because he knew that this "Brother Hu" came from the depths of their hearts, full of gratitude and respect.

"Where are their six children?" Wang Xiaohu asked Yang Shenghua, the permanent coach of the trade union.

Yang Shenghua was one of the best in the fourth batch. According to the student materials, Yang Shenghua’s ancestors had learned art in Mount Emei. After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the Yang family went south for refuge and finally settled in Hong Kong. Yang Shenghua learned some kung fu from his family when he was young. , is particularly good at swordsmanship, and can be regarded as a die-hard movie fan of Wang Xiaohu.Ever since he watched "Ip Man", this kid has resisted the pressure of his family and attended the training class of the fourth batch of dragon and tiger martial arts union with a simple salute. He has been working as a coach in the union since he graduated. Accomplishments in traditional martial arts.

"They're in the practice room at the back." Yang Shenghua said very politely: "Brother Hu's five apprentices are teaching Cantonese to the new juniors."

"Huh?" Wang Xiaohu was delighted, it seems that this kid has settled down quite a bit after being reprimanded by him. "You take everyone to train first."

Wang Xiaohu was about to leave, but was stopped by Yang Shenghua: "Brother Hu."

"What's wrong?" Wang Xiaohu turned around, looked at Yang Shenghua and asked with a smile, "Did you encounter any difficulties in life?"

Wang Xiaohu still remembers the first day when Yang Shenghua first came here. At that time, because Yang Shenghua didn't bring much money with him, the first thing he said after seeing his idol Wang Xiaohu was: "Brother Hu, you can lend us money to buy some money." Let's eat a bowl of plain rice." He became the most memorable guy among the fourth batch of students.

"No, the salary of being a coach is very sufficient, and I can save more than 2000 Hong Kong dollars every month." Yang Shenghua scratched his head and blushed and said, "Brother Hu, I heard from Brother Biao (Yuen Biao) that they said that in your film this time There is the role of a killer, I have dreamed of being a killer since I was a child, can you give me a role."

"Dream of being a killer?" Wang Xiaohu raised his eyebrows and looked at Yang Shenghua with a wry smile. He didn't expect this burly man to have such a hobby. "Okay, but there is no real killer in it. They were all filmed by the court to hunt down official Hong Xi." Eagle Dog, if you don't feel disgusted, I will arrange one for you!"

In "Hong Xi Guan", the government sent a lot of eagle and dog killers. It seems that there is an imperial court official, that is, the actor of the guy who burned the Shaolin Temple with Ma Ninger has not yet been determined. There are still many scenes, which happens to be cheap for Yang Shenghua.

"Hey, thank you Brother Hu!" Yang Shenghua left joyfully, Wang Xiaohu chuckled, and led Yuan Kui and Yuan Dexiang to the practice room behind.

When the three of them were about to reach the door, they heard laughter coming from inside.

"Dong Zai, you speak Cantonese so badly!" But it was the voice of Mu Moyan: "This time the word should be pronounced like this"

Then I heard Jet Li uttering a word with great difficulty, the pronunciation was really unflattering, which made the room full of kiddos laugh.

"Dong Zai, why did I hear you talking about sleeping, who is doing it, what are you doing, who are you doing?" Zhou Xingchi laughed loudly.

"No, it's obviously sleeping." Jet Li argued with a blushing face.

"Look, look, who did it!" Zhou Xingchi laughed louder.

"Xingzi, if you annoy me, I'll fuck you!"

"Hey, are you guys bullying Zhengdong again?" Wang Xiaohu immediately went in when he saw this, the smiles of the three little guys Zhou Xingchi, Andy Lau, and Huang Rihua froze there, and the expressions on their grinning faces were extremely weird. caught the current.

On the other hand, Mo Moyan and Li Guohao stood beside Jet Li, looking at them righteously and angrily.

"Master (Old Dou) is good." The six little fellows greeted Wang Xiaohu in unison.

Jet Li flashed his big eyes cleverly and said: "Master, big brothers, they are not bullying me, they are correcting my Cantonese pronunciation."

It is not easy for Wang Xiaohu to know what Jet Li is thinking. It is not easy to have such forbearance in Hong Kong at such a young age. Wang Xiaohu appreciated it very much, nodded and smiled: "Hehe, very good, this is a good performance of mutual help, Xingzi, Huazi, Ah Huang, you should maintain this good habit in the future, and help Zhengdong get familiar with Hong Kong."

"Master, we know."

Wang Xiaohu was very happy to see how his apprentices knew their mistakes and could correct them. He turned to Yuan Kui and Yuan De and said, "Senior brothers, Zhengdong is the mainland martial arts champion I mentioned to you. You should follow up with me these few days." Communicate with him, he doesn't speak Cantonese very well, it's better to speak Mandarin with him."

The Seven Little Fortune brothers studied Peking Opera with Yu Zhanyuan since they were young, and all of them spoke in a correct manner, and there was no pressure in this regard.

"Zhengdong, go out and talk with these two masters." Wang Xiaohu asked Jet Li to follow Yuan Kui and Yuan De to get acquainted with each other and prepare for future action designs. After the three left, he held his chin to look at the remaining If it weren't for the fact that Li Guohao looked like a foreigner, it would be perfect for the new Shaolin Fifth Patriarch to let them play the role.

And just now before entering the door, he said silently that the slightly Shandong-flavored Mandarin made Wang Xiaohu think of the fat boy "Fang Dahong". Isn't Fang Dahong in the film just speaking Shandong dialect, and his appearance rate and role in the film are also very high. The proportion of jokes in the book is a little bit more.

Originally planned to let Huang Rihua, who is slightly chubby, play this role, which can be regarded as preparation for "Shooting the Condors" a few years later, but now it seems that silent words are more suitable.

"Yanzi, come here." Wang Xiaohu said suddenly.

"Oh." Shen Moyan walked over with blinking eyes.

"Who did you learn Shandong dialect from?"

"My grandpa." There is still a small obstacle in the communication between Mo Yan and Wang Xiaohu, but after "Seven Little Fortunes", this obstacle is getting smaller and smaller.

"Yeah." Wang Xiaohu nodded, remembering that before the filming of "Ip Man", Shen Zhong was the prototype that Jinshan was looking for. Naturally, the Shandong dialect will not be forgotten. It is estimated that Uncle Zhong has nothing to do in the past few years and his grandson speaks in Shandong dialect, but this The local accent has been assimilated seven seven eight eight.

"In this way, you don't need to watch the part of the role that was scheduled earlier, and mainly study the part of Fang Dahong." Wang Xiaohu patted his head and instructed in a low voice.

After hearing the silent words, there was an uproar in his heart. He knew that Fang Dahong was the main character next to Hong Wending. Wang Xiaohu's arrangement was undoubtedly to increase his chances of playing, and he stood there for a while, not knowing what to say.

"Ah Huang, don't be discouraged, there will be many good opportunities in the future!" Wang Xiaohu went up to comfort Huang Rihua and said, "A play can't determine a person's success or failure. Your uncle and the others have been a part-timer for five or six years before they are what they are today." Your achievements, believe in Master, you will all become popular."

After completing the ideological education work for the five young apprentices, and preparing for a few more days, in the early morning of October 1976, 10, "Officer Hong Xi: The New Five Patriarchs of Shaolin" was officially launched, and the location of the launch was still at the Shaw Brothers studio. It has only been ten months since the Xiehe Film and Television City started construction, and only one-third of the blueprint has been completed.

At the same time, the whole army and the people of the mainland launched a campaign to overthrow the Gang of Four.——
PS: I'm sorry everyone, I haven't had enough sleep every day for the past six months, and it's really miserable after the outbreak. Xiaomi slept at home for two days and two nights, which is barely better. The amount of updates during the recovery period may be less. At the same time Make minor adjustments to the outline, too, to find the feeling of when you first opened the book.

When I was young, I liked watching martial arts movies. When I grew up, I contributed to the creation of "The King of Kung Fu", which can be regarded as the fulfillment of Xiaomi's dream. Thank you again for your support and encouragement along the way. Xiaomi will continue to work hard to write a good one.
