Chapter 60
Hong Kong newspaper reporters did not report out of context, they almost unanimously ignored Wang Xiaohu's wild words, and praised Bruce Lee's performance and Wang Xiaohu's contribution spirit with a lot of praise, calling them "genuine", "reaching the pinnacle", " Bold innovation", "green out of blue" and so on.

Within a week, "Fist of Fury" swept the entire Hong Kong theaters, with gratifying box office results, and this trend spread to many countries in Southeast Asia.

It was the first time in the history of Singapore's founding that the local traffic jam was caused in just one week after its release in Singapore.In the Philippines, "Fist of Fury" was even more remarkable. It broke the country's box office record within three days of its release. The Philippine film industry immediately asked the government to reduce the number of times the film was broadcast and theaters, in order to protect local films from being robbed of resources by Hong Kong films.

Two weeks later, Golden Harvest began to hold a press conference, announcing that its box office of "Fist of Fury" broke the record of 500 million Hong Kong dollars in just two weeks. Two weeks has been increased to one month. I believe this box office record will be refreshed to the point of staggering.

Now all Hong Kong citizens are discussing "Fist of Fury" and Chen Zhen after dinner. Wang Xiaohu often sees a group of young people imitating Bruce Lee's actions when he goes to the streets and alleys. Man is not the sick man of East Asia", Bruce Lee's movies have influenced his generation.

What surprised Wang Xiaohu even more was that the Hong Kong martial arts community was also discussing "Fist of Fury".

According to the analysis of a certain school of martial arts experts, in the film, Bruce Lee will also make a unique roar in the fierce fight.The actual function of roaring in a fight is: first, it can deter the opponent; second, it can make the body firm so that it will not be overly damaged when it is accidentally hit; third, it can use this to stimulate the "Qi" in the body and the external Combination of power - that is, it is easy to make the power burst out.

"This group of bricks can really talk nonsense. It's clearly for the artistic effect that the film needs to increase. They even pulled out such absurdities. Hehe, it seems that bald people follow the moon and get caught up in Bruce Lee's light!" Wang Xiaohu slandered: "I don't know Luo. Will that fat guy in Wei keep his promise and publish a review article?"

In fact, Luo Wei has been having a hard time these days. He became restless the day after the premiere of "Fist of Fury". Various news reports are using statistics to explain the achievements of "Fist of Fury" , all stimulated his nerves and made him restless.Especially when he heard that the film broke the box office of 500 million in two weeks, he suddenly felt chest tightness and discomfort, a mouthful of thick phlegm stuck in his throat was extremely difficult to breathe, and then he fainted on the ground. His wife Liu Lianghua sent him to the hospital in time for emergency treatment .

That night when Luo Weiyou woke up, the first thing he said was: "It's true that the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead, and it's not shameful to lose to a young talent like Wang Xiaohu. Ah Hua, bring me a pen and paper, and I want to write a review article. "

It can be said that after wandering around in front of the God of Death, Luo Wei has already figured out many things. Wang Xiaohu's rapid rise is not accidental. He has his own innovative ideas and has thoroughly studied Hong Kong martial arts films. Under his representative A new trend of reform and innovation is affecting the Hong Kong film industry, so Luo Weihe gave up his previous prejudices and decided to write this review article as a senior director.

Luo Wei's article was sent to "Ming Pao" by Liu Lianghua, and "Ming Pao" published this article in a prominent position the next day.

"Hong Kong film reform and innovation are bound to win, watching "Fist of Fury" feels."

"Bruce Lee was dressed in civilian clothes and shoes, full of rustic style, but he kicked the signboard of a vicious dog blocking the way in a park in Fanbang that said 'Chinese and dogs are not allowed'. The power of this kick is beyond the reach of other martial arts stars who claim to be aces. Can it be played? Bruce Lee went to the curator of a martial arts gym from RB alone, and said that he would return him a "gift". After speaking, he raised a large signboard in his hand, which read "Sick Man of East Asia" four The shame of these four words ignited in the hearts of the Chinese audience like flames, and then Bruce Lee beat the RB bully to the ground with a long howl. This long howl showed the grief and indignation that had been buried for a long time And shame, can other martial arts stars shout it out?"

"The above is just my narration of his script. Through his script, it has already reflected the motivation of the screenwriter at the beginning of his creation. It has solved the problems that have puzzled the Hong Kong film and television industry for many years, and the conflicts in the script have been further sublimated. This is what we Hong Kong directors should learn from. example."

"Besides, in terms of action, Mr. Wang Xiaohu, the screenwriter, martial arts instructor, and assistant director of the film, can be said to have worked hard this time. He broke through the scope of traditional martial arts actions in one fell swoop in his unique way in the shooting, and boldly innovated. The martial arts action has entered a new chapter, which can be said to set off a wave of Hong Kong movies, which makes me sigh. Finally, I hope that Hong Kong can emerge more people like Wang Xiaohu, and reflect the development of prosperous Hong Kong movies."

Luo Wei's status in the film and television industry is respected, especially "Big Brother Tangshan" made him the top box office director, and his influence is self-evident. Once the review article was published, it immediately caused a sensation in the Hong Kong film and television industry. Colleagues in the film and television industry also began to face up to this problem, and went to the theater to watch this innovative film that was called "epoch-making" and "milestone".

The instigator, Wang Xiaohu, was a guest at Bruce Lee's home.

Lying comfortably on the sofa, Li Xiaolong said with a smile: "Hey, Xiaohu, you must treat me today, because I have obtained an unexpected gift for you."

Wang Xiaohu smiled and said: "Ha, look at what you said, even if you don't ask for a gift for me, I should treat you, because I have learned a lot about Jeet Kune Do from you."

Bruce Lee was stunned, then he shook his head and said, "No, no, you misunderstood, things are not what you imagined, this gift is actually what you deserve."

Wang Xiaohu frowned and said, "Hmm? Brother Xiaolong, don't go around in circles, tell me what the gift is."

"Wow, I had an in-depth conversation with Zou Wenhuai for a long time today, and I thought that the remuneration we got was completely disproportionate to the current box office revenue, so through my unremitting efforts, Zou Wenhuai finally agreed to give you and me a certain amount of dividends based on the box office income. "

"Huh?" Wang Xiaohu touched his nose, unable to react for a while.

"Hey, Xiaohu, what's your expression? Isn't this good news?" Bruce Lee was very angry seeing him like this.

"This is definitely good news, but I just want to know, besides the salary in the contract, how much bonus can I get?" Wang Xiaohu chuckled. It is a good thing to have money. Who cares about having too much money these days? ah?
