Living in the Hong Kong Film World

Chapter 27 Test Equipment
A glass of dark wine was placed in front of A Hua, and he looked at it suspiciously.

"Is this thing drinkable?"

"Take it as Guiling Jelly!"

Looking at this cup of secret "Guiling Jelly" which costs 88 yuan, Ah Hua is a little entangled.

Feinan drank beer and said with a smile, "If you don't want to drink, just pour it!"

"It's a pity to fall..."

Ahua hesitated for a long time, but still picked up the cup and took a sip.

"Huh?" He widened his eyes: "It tastes good!"

"Really?"

"Really! If you don't believe me, try it!"

Ah Hua handed over the cup.

Feinan looked up at him, and said flatly, "Take another sip."

The corners of A Hua's eyes twitched obviously, and then he laughed: "It's really delicious!"

After all, he held his breath and closed his eyes and took a sip.

"Ok!"

He put the "Tortoise Jelly" in his mouth, squeezed out a smile, and handed the wine glass to Feinan.

Feinan glanced at him: "Take another sip."

Ahua couldn't hold back any longer, his face collapsed, and he turned his head and spit out the drink in his mouth into the trash can.

"Wow! You bastard, why didn't you fall for it?" Ahua wiped his mouth.

"Just take another sip and I'll believe it."

"Bah! Only ghosts can believe in you!"

Ah Hua angrily poured the "guiling jelly" into the trash can.

Feinan stood up and greeted the door: "Uncle Huang!"

Uncle Huang entered the bar together with a tall and slender man. After hearing his greeting, he raised his hands in response and walked over together.

"Anan, Ah Hua, this is the Shi Ziming I mentioned to you, called Brother Ming!"

Uncle Huang introduced the two sides with a smile. After saying hello, everyone sat down together.

"Brother Ming, what would you like to drink?"

"A glass of ice water is fine, thank you."

"Where's Uncle Huang?"

"Beer is ready!"

Feinan raised his hand and called the waiter, "A glass of ice water and a glass of draft beer, thank you."

Uncle Huang said with a smile: "Amin also walked out of the city. In the past, he was not much better than you. He relied on himself, step by step, and now he has two houses, three shops, and his wife. Beautiful, I don’t know how happy I am! Haha!”

People with poor backgrounds usually pay more attention to their own backgrounds, but Shi Ziming didn't care about Uncle Huang's mention, and said with a smile: "Uncle Huang, do you always tell people like this every time you introduce friends to me?" mine?"

"What I said is the truth! Haha!"

Feinan and the others heard Uncle Huang talk about Shi Ziming's past. When he was young, he indeed lived in the Kowloon Walled City. He was not as good as the old Ah Hua, just a coolie carrying fish balls.

Later, through the introduction of Uncle Huang, I applied to become a caddy for a golf course on Hong Kong Island.

He made his first fortune by listening to the inside information from rich businessmen, bankers, and government officials while picking up the ball, and then he made his way to today step by step.

After chatting casually for a few words, after drinking enough, Shi Ziming brought the topic back.

"Do you want to buy a bow? Are you playing by yourself?" He asked Ah Hua.

Ah Hua nodded when he heard the words, and said according to the agreement: "Yes! Our deputy director likes to play shooting, and I just want to learn it. If there is a chance in the future, I can leave a good impression on the leader."

He went back and asked that a deputy director surnamed Han in the station was really from the shooting club.

"Is it Han Jun? I met him in the club. He plays IPSC a lot, but he also plays bow and crossbow."

Shi Ziming smiled and said: "Do well, I read your news, if you have this opportunity, you should seize it, and you will definitely succeed in the future."

"Take a good word from Brother Ming!" Ahua smiled and picked up the cup to touch him.

"It's just an opportunity you fought for yourself." Shi Ziming drank his saliva and said, "I can help you get an old bow from the club, it's cheaper, but if you plan to accompany the leader, it's better to buy a new one that's about the same size. Bows are better."

After glancing at Feinan, Ahua nodded: "Brother Ming, do you have any recommendations?"

"Don't think about compound bows. There are too many accessories and too expensive. You are a novice, and Han Jun doesn't play compound bows."

Shi Ziming said: "You should buy a competitive recurve bow! Although there are quite a lot of accessories, you can choose a few less. This is what Han Jun plays, and it is easy to talk to."

A Hua scratched his head and asked, "What is a compound bow... a recurve bow, what's the difference?"

Shi Ziming explained: "Now there are three types of bows, traditional bows, recurve bows and compound bows. There are only two uses, one is hunting and the other is competition."

"The so-called competition means accurate shooting, and hunting means great power, understand?"

"Traditional bows are the bows of the past. English longbows, and bows, Korean bows, Manchurian bows, and Qing bows are all traditional bows. There are straight bows and recurve bows. The power varies from big to small, and the difficulty is the highest. Yes, because there is no way to add accessories, and there is no bow window."

"The distinction between hunting and competition in traditional bows is not so clear and obvious, because there are relatively few people who play it, and most of them are for self-cultivation and the pursuit of a sense of history. You don't need to care about this."

"Recurve bows and compound bows are both modern bows. Compound bows are also called pulley bows. They add pulleys to the arms of the bow, use mechanical principles to save effort, and can also be equipped with sights. This kind of bow is relatively simple to get started, with pulleys. It saves effort, the sight is aimed, and the shooting is far and accurate, but the speed of fire is a problem, there are a lot of accessories, and a release device is used, and it takes a long time to load an arrow, which is very troublesome.”

"The recurve bow is the bow you see most often on TV. Have you seen Stallone's movie "Rambo"? He uses a recurve bow."

"Recurve bows are also divided into hunting and competition. Hunting usually uses a bare bow, that is, a bow without accessories. Competition requires accessories. With accessories, you will shoot more accurately. This is what the Olympic Games compares to."

"The bows in the club are very old, and they are not maintained. The quality is very poor. It is better to buy it yourself."

"Entry-level imported bows are not expensive. I have arm guards, finger guards, quiver and arrows. I can give you a set. You only need to buy a bow, complete with arrow rest, sight, balance bar and reducer. The vibrator is enough, and a set can cost up to 3000 yuan.”

"If you are a novice, you should buy a 25-pound or 30-pound one first, and you can change it when you get used to it."

"3000 yuan..." Ah Hua clicked his tongue secretly. An entry-level bow would cost him the previous month's salary, and it's not a one-time investment, and it needs to be replaced constantly.

Feinan suddenly said, "Brother Ming, I also want to buy one. Can you get Mei Lie?"

American hunting is the abbreviation of American hunting bow, which belongs to the combination of traditional bow and modern bow.

In terms of style, it belongs to the traditional bow, which can be divided into recurve and straight draw.

But in terms of production technology, modern hunting bows have also added arrow rests and bow windows, which has greatly improved shooting accuracy compared with traditional bows.

"Yes!" Shi Ziming nodded and asked, "Do you want to bend or straighten?"

"A recurve bow, I want a 50-pound one."

"50 pounds? Are you sure?" Shi Ziming was a little surprised: "50 pounds is very heavy, and it is difficult for novices to pull it off."

"I've played traditional bows before." Feinan explained.

"Oh?"

Those who play traditional bows are either novices or masters. Shi Ziming became interested: "If there is a chance, we can learn from each other."

"Yes!" Feinan agreed with a smile.

Ah Hua couldn't wait to ask: "Is the imported bow to be bought from abroad? When will it arrive?"

"At present, Xianggang does not have a store specializing in bow business, and you need to buy it abroad. But there is one in Singapore. I have a friend who comes back from Singapore the day after tomorrow. I will call him and ask him to help bring it back."

"Thank you, Brother Ming." Feinan and Ahua thanked him.

"It's okay." Shi Ziming waved his hand and said, "I'll pay for the money for you first. When the item arrives, I'll confirm the price and I'll notify Uncle Huang to let you pick it up."

Shi Ziming didn't drink, and they said goodbye and left after talking.

Uncle Huang drank a lot, got a little drunk, and wanted to drive, but was stopped by Feinan.

After returning to the Walled City, he sent Uncle Huang back to the factory, and Feinan also got the finished slingshot and rubber band.

Uncle Huang got him several types of rubber bands. Feinan chose the thickest one, 2050, cut it into four strands of equal length according to the ruler, and tied them to the slingshot.

The vision was not good at night, so Feinan got up early the next morning and went to the roof to conduct the test.

A dozen glass bottles and cans were staggered and placed on the roof of the building according to the distance.

2050 is already a relatively thick model of slingshot rubber bands. The four strands are added together, and the elasticity is amazing, and it can't be pulled apart without a little effort.

The slingshot is the same as the bow and arrow. It is not that the more powerful the better, but the more suitable for you, the better.

Feinan can draw a bow weighing more than 60 pounds, but at most a dozen times. If it is a 50-pound bow, he can draw it dozens of times. The nature is completely different.

The same goes for slingshots. Feinan chose them for self-defense, not for lethality.

Holding his breath, his feet were shoulder-width apart, and he stood sideways. Feinan held the bow in his left hand, held it horizontally, and slowly stretched the rubber band until his arms were fully stretched.

Then, he slowly relaxed his arm, allowing the rubber band to return to its original shape.

After doing this several times, he put a steel ball into the bomb pocket and pulled it away again.

Aiming at a soda bottle placed on the edge of the building five meters away, Feinan suddenly let go.

Snapped!
The soda bottle burst instantly!
He quickly took out a steel ball from his waist and put it in the bullet pocket, and Feinan pulled it away again.

Snapped!
Ten meters away, a soda can was pierced in an instant, bounced away, jumped up and turned somersaults in mid-air.

Without moving his left hand, his right hand quickly took out a steel ball again, and the rubber band was pulled apart again.

Feinan's speed became faster and faster, and the shooting intervals became shorter and shorter. He seemed to have entered a strange state.

As long as he saw something that was identified as a target, his body would react quickly, reload and shoot.

This is not the feeling of the body being manipulated, but the feeling of the body keeping up with his nerve reaction speed, and that kind of coordination makes him intoxicated.

Snapped!
Snapped!
Snapped!
Snapped!
Soda bottles burst one after another, and soda cans were pierced one after another.

It wasn't until he felt empty that he recovered from that state.

He knocked out a bag of steel balls.
