Chapter 544 A Love Song Suppresses the Audience

In other words, there is a mountain called Foshan in Guangdong, and there is a temple in Foshan... Oh no, there is a martial arts gym called Wing Chun, and there is a master in the martial arts gym named Ye Wen. , His wife told him to go east, but he dared not go west... He is good at martial arts, but he is low-key. He likes to stay at home and compete with friends behind closed doors.

In order to make a name for themselves in Foshan, the Northern Martial Artists headed by Jin Shanxun ruthlessly beat down the masters of various factions.In order to win the approval of the citizens of FS, Jin Shanxun decided to challenge Ye Wen, who doesn't care about world affairs, and broke into Ye Man's house to force Ye Wen to take action.Encouraged by his wife, Ye Wen beat Jin Shanzhao with his skilled Wing Chun boxing.After this battle, Foshan set off a blazing Wing Chun craze.

The good times don’t last long, the Sino-Japanese war breaks out, Foshan falls, the Ye family mansion is occupied by the Japanese army, Ye Wen is forced to move to the abandoned house with his wife and children.Ye Wen was laid off and had no money to support his family. Life was hard for his family, but Ye Man still faced it positively.The Japanese general Sanpo is a martial idiot, so he rewarded the Chinese with rice, and invited the Chinese to the fighting field to compete with the Japanese army, in order to observe Chinese martial arts...
Chen Xiaotang finished the story of "Ip Man" in one breath, only to see Wang Jiawei and Liu Zhenwei staring at him in a daze, the corners of their mouths leaking...

"Ahem, what are you looking at me for?"

"Boss, we have convinced you!"

"Yes, your old lady is talented! I admire you so much!"

Liu and Wang said separately.

Seeing their tongues trembling with excitement, if they could sing, they would definitely shout to Chen Xiaotang: "You are electricity, you are light, you are the only myth... you ~are~ my~ super~ star!"

Chen Xiaotang was stared at by two big men like this, his old face couldn't help but blushed, and said shyly: "I admire you, why don't you go in and watch a movie!"...

In the movie theater, the movie has reached the blindfolded battle between Chen Zhen of the Fist of Fury and the head coach of the Black Dragon Society, Fumio Yue.

This is one of the best fights in the movie.The character of Funakoshi is very interesting. He is a very upright Japanese martial artist without rigid thinking.The portrayal of this character can be said to be a breakthrough for previous Fist of Fury movies. This movie does not portray the Japanese badly like previous movies with the same theme.

The actor who plays Funakoshi is called Yasuaki Kurata. He has filmed movies with Bruce Lee before, and he was active in the Hong Kong film industry in his previous life. The movie Chen Xiaotang remembers is "Youth Huo Yuanjia", in which he played Huo Yuanjia's master Finally, it was revealed that Huo Yuanjia's master was Japanese, and the master and apprentice fought for the glory of the two countries.Then there is the ancient costume martial arts film "Flying Knife Sees Flying Knife", starring David Jiang as Li Huai and Yasuaki Kurata as Dugu Qiubai. I have to admire the screenwriter of this drama for being able to bring together characters from Gu Long and Jin Yong's novels.And this movie was watched by Chen Xiaotang in the video room. He watched both sides while holding his urine. What impressed him most was that Dugu Qiubai was hung up and teased by a woman when he was looking for straw paper to shit. The thighs and panties are looming, which is really rare in costume martial arts movies!Panties, panties, you know, I miss you so much!

When Funakoshi and Chen Zhen started their duel, Funakoshi, who is well versed in "fisting is afraid of the young", deliberately used various methods to make Chen Zhen feel relaxed, and then attacked suddenly and preemptively, which really made Chen Zhen suffer a lot.Fortunately, Chen Zhen was really smart in boxing, and through a few incredible counterattacks, he took the initiative in his own hands.In fact, both Chen Zhen and Huo Tingen are very good at making clever moves in unfavorable circumstances, but Huo Tingen's speed and strength are really bad, so that even if he hits the opponent, he can't cause damage to the opponent, plus his ability to fight It's too bad, so unless you meet someone with a lower level than yourself, it's hard to win in the battle.

In the face of Chen Zhen's sudden boxing jump, Funakoshi showed an open mind of an old martial artist, and quickly used the opponent's boxing techniques for his own use.

In the blindfolded battle, Funakoshi's technique of "knocking on rocks to explore the way" also showed the wisdom of the old man.The most thought-provoking part of this contest is Funakoshi's last remarks, such as "The best way to knock down the opponent is to use a pistol" (this seems to be the opposite of what Chen Zhen said when training others, "The way to fight is to knock the opponent down" ), "Chinese martial arts focus on personal cultivation rather than actual combat" are very profound.

Besides, the audience under the silver screen are already familiar with and like Chen Xiaotang's performance style at this moment, and have a deep understanding of the thrill of actual kung fu combat.

"Wow, this kind of kung fu movie is so cool to watch!"

"Yeah, look at that series of moves, but people are dazzled, I really wish I could fight like this myself!"...

"Which one do you think is better, Chen Xiaotang or Bruce Lee?!"

"Well, it's hard to say!"...

In the movie theater, the audience chattered a lot. Chen Xiaotang, who had just returned to his seat, smiled and nodded at everyone. Everyone looked at him with praise and admiration.

But at this moment, in a remote corner of the movie, Wu Tianming, the director of Xiying Studio who came from the mainland to negotiate with Moying Entertainment, was full of emotion.

Although this "Jing Wu Hero" has not yet ended, he has already been conquered by this drama.Especially the action design in it is refreshing for Wu Tianming as a filmmaker.

As we all know, although the origin of Kung Fu movies in mainland China is "Shaolin Temple", but the martial arts design is very primitive and backward... Do you remember the "Invincible Mandarin Duck Legs"?Do you remember the deadly iron sand palm that was dyed into bear's paw? Do you remember the first martial arts drama "Jianghu Enqiulu" in mainland China where "the sea of ​​people is vast, the end of the world is endless, the eagle spreads its wings and roams the sky, and the love between the world and the world"?Do you remember the "Jinding magic skill" in which there is a pipe between the fingers to spray smoke? !

It can be said that mainland kung fu movies and martial arts dramas are too outdated and primitive!At that time, I watched it with relish, but now it looks like it makes people vomit three liters of blood.

And mainland martial arts films and action films have begun to make some achievements. It should be the 98 version of CCTV's "Water Margin".From that year onwards, mainland filmmakers and television professionals began to invite action designers from Hong Kong to participate in the filming, which made action design a qualitative leap.

Now, only in 84, the action design of the entire mainland movie is still in the "orangutan fighting" mode, which is very low-grade, very unattractive, and very beastly!

Therefore, Wu Tianming couldn't help shaking his head and sighing in his heart, the difference between such movies in mainland China and Hong Kong is more than a thousand miles away!

Fortunately, in order to keep a low profile, I didn't ask Chen Xiaotang to take special care of me, I didn't walk any red carpets, and I didn't sit in any VIP seats. I just asked for a free ticket and walked in by myself to experience the fun of Hong Kong people watching movies.

If you are with others, wouldn't you be ashamed to death?

How can I say that everyone is in the same industry, others can shoot such wonderful and passionate patriotic films, but I can only shoot some numb model dramas, the gap is too big!
Looking at the Hong Kong audience around me, they all watched mesmerized, as if this is a kind of enjoyment, a kind of fun, a kind of visual feast.It's not like in the mainland, when that kind of model play is shown, the whole movie theater is full of snoring. If you know it's a movie, if you don't know it, you think it's raising pigs.

Just when Wu Tianming was full of sighs, the Japanese girl "Mitsuko Yamada" played by Guan Zhilin in the play "Jing Wu Heroes" couldn't be with "Chen Zhen" played by Chen Xiaotang and had to be separated.

It can be said that this "Jing Wu Hero" itself is a man's drama, but it is also very exciting in terms of emotional drama, especially Chen Zhen and Yamada Mitsuko played by Chen Xiaotang, and Huo Tingen and the brothel girl played by Li Lianjie. The play is simply the finishing touch.

If Huo Tingen's feelings are caused by traditional Chinese customs, then Chen Zhen is caused by national hatred and family hatred.

Tough men also have tenderness!

Love knows no borders!

The music played in the movie was a song by Lin Xi, the number one young lyricist of Moying Entertainment, which was released by Chen Xiaotang before.

Needless to say, the singer is of course the star of the show, Chen Xiaotang.

Song: There are some clouds floating in the sky, and some breeze blowing on the ground.The breeze blows my hair, how can I not miss her?
The moonlight loves the ocean, and the ocean loves the moonlight.Your beautiful cheeks under the moonlight, how can I miss her?

Flowers falling on the surface of the water flow slowly, and fish swim slowly at the bottom.What are you talking about, swallow?Teach me how not to miss her?

Dead trees shake in the cold wind, wildfires burn in the twilight.There is still a little glow in the western sky, teach me how not to miss her?
"Teach me how not to miss her" -- this song has a folk style, catchy and rich in imagery, among which are "little cloud", "breeze", "moonlight", "fish", "swallow" , "Twilight", "Remnant Xia", etc., are beautiful when they are written into poems, giving people the reverie of "wanting to send lovesickness for thousands of miles", "a branch of pear blossom with rain in spring".

In fact, this song was adapted by Lin Xi from the poem by Liu Bannong, a talented scholar in the Republic of China. A few simple changes made this poem a beautiful and moving tune.After Liu Bannong wrote it, his good friend Zhao Yuanren also made records for EMI.

There is an anecdote about this song. At that time, this song was very popular in the society. A young friend wanted to see the songwriter's demeanor and asked Liu Bannong what he looked like.One day, Liu Gang happened to come to Zhao's house to drink tea, and this young man was also present.Zhao Yuanren and his wife introduced to the young people: "This is the lyricist of "Teach Me How Not to Miss Him." The young man was surprised and blurted out: "So he is an old man!" , once wrote a doggerel:

Teach me how not to miss him, please come in and have a cup of tea.It turns out that such an old man taught me how to miss him again!

The word "she" in Chinese was created by Liu Bannong.The first use of the word "she" is said to be Liu Bannong's "Teach Me How Not to Miss Her" in London in September 1920, creating "she" for the first time and incorporating "she" into a poem for the first time.

In the early vernacular, "he" was used as a third-person pronoun, commonly used for men, women and everything. Around 1919, some literary works used "伊" to refer to women.In view of this confusion, Liu Bannong created the word "she" to refer to a third-person female, while using "it" to refer to things.Although it was attacked by some conservatives at the beginning, it quickly spread and was widely used.This became a sensational news in the cultural circles at that time.

At this moment, Chen Xiaotang began to sing this rather folk-style "love song". I can't help crying, almost want to cry.

Chen Xiaotang's voice is loud and sharp, a bit similar to Eason Chan in his previous life, especially in the treble part.But when singing this song, you have to suppress your voice, and pronounce it almost with your nose, in order to achieve that kind of "tenderness" effect. It can be said that this singing method is very suitable for Chen Xiaotang who is used to "bright and sharp". It is a great challenge.

But now it proves that he succeeded!
The audience has already been moved by this love song. The film that was originally full of masculinity changed from Jin Yong to Qiong Yao in an instant, from swords and swords to love between children, but this change is not abrupt at all. On the contrary, It was "just right"!
At this moment, the entire movie theater is wet, everyone is sad for the parting of Chen Zhen and Mitsuko Yamada, only those super fans of Chen Xiaotang are already thinking about it, how can we get this new song of Chen Xiaotang out...

The movie continues.

Finally came the scene of Chen Zhen, Huo Tingen and Fujita Gosho's life-and-death battle, which is also the last climax of the play.

In Li Lianjie's version of "Jing Wu Heroes" in the previous life, Fujita Takeshi, nicknamed "Robot", can be said to be the big boss in computer games, terrifying and scary.The biggest feature of his martial arts is strength, with great strength and good resistance to blows.Compared with Huo Tingen's fancy kung fu, which is simple, fast, and extremely lethal, it is like hitting a stone with an egg.Although Huo Tingen once hit the opponent very skillfully, he did not cause any harm to the opponent. This also confirmed Chen Zhen's theory that "you must learn to be beaten before beating someone".The contest between Chen Zhen and Fujita Takeshi can be regarded as a contest of skill and strength. The prerequisite for the former to defeat the latter must be that the fighting abilities of both parties are equal, because Huo Tingen is also a skill type, but he failed, while Chen Zhen did not. Won.

At this moment, everyone in the movie theater became nervous. Seeing Chen Zhen's battle with Fujita Go on the big screen, they were extremely excited.Some people even had sweaty palms, fixed their gazes on the big screen, and grasped the armrests of their chairs...

On the big screen, Huo Tingen, played by Li Lianjie, has been maimed by the robot Goshi Fujita. Although the traditional Mizong Quan of Fist of Fury is superb, Huo Tingen's ability to fight is too weak, so when facing a non-human like Fujita Go When it is time, it is strange to be undefeated.

In the camera, "Fujita Takeshi" played by Zhou Billi, dressed in the uniform of the Imperial Japanese Army, looked cool, shook his head at Huo Tingen, who was beaten to vomit blood, then unbuttoned the two buttons of his collar, and rushed to "Chen Zhen" sneered and said: "Chen Zhen, it's your turn!"

In the close-up, Huo Tingen was supported by Chen Zhen, and said in his ear: "Chen Zhen, his fists are very hard, be careful!"

Chen Zhen patted Huo Tingen on the shoulder: "Don't worry about me, if you have a chance, you can leave here!"

The long shot is slowly approaching: Chen Zhen takes off his leather shoes, unbuttons his shirt, strides into the center of the arena, and stands face to face with Fujita Takeshi.

Although Chen Zhen didn't say a word, he suddenly turned around and warmed up.

The purpose of warming up before the battle is to eliminate the stiffness of the muscles, to make the fists and feet move, to boost the spirit, and to make the ability more perfect.

Just after Fujita defeated Huo Tingen, his morale was high, and his muscles and fighting spirit were at their peak. In comparison, Chen Zhen suffered a disadvantage, so he had to warm up through this kind of activity to get himself into the state as soon as possible.

As soon as Fujita watched Chen Zhen doing warm-up activities, his eyes narrowed, as sharp as knives, and then he creaked and twisted his neck a few times.

Under the silver screen, everyone began to discuss again.

"Wow, it's incredible, this Fujita looks so good, I'm afraid Chen Zhen is not his opponent!"

"Yeah, the size of the two of them is clear at a glance. Fujita Gou is like a gorilla, his muscles are almost bursting his clothes."

……

On the big screen, the "Chen Zhen" played by Chen Xiaotang is much taller than the one played by Li Lianjie in his previous life, so he looks even taller.Now in the warm-up, I can see that his muscle lines are clear and clear, his latissimus dorsi is unusually developed, as if he has grown a pair of wings, his six-pack abdominal muscles are neatly arranged, and his two forearms are as strong as steel.

From the analysis of body alone, "Chen Zhen" is definitely not inferior to "Fujita Takeshi" in terms of explosive power and resistance. However, as a fighting machine of the Japanese military, Fujita Takeshi has far more actual combat experience than Chen Zhen, and his proficient skills are basically They are all one-hit killing techniques, vicious and vicious, so the outcome is really unpredictable.

Camera shift, zoom in close-up:
"Tom, tom, tom!" Chen Zhen bent over, split his legs, shook his muscles, and then began to punch. The sound of ordinary fists breaking the air shook the paper-pasted door wall of Hongkou Dojo. trembling.

The audience off the screen were eager to see it, but they thought it was also done by special effects of the movie. It would be OK to add some sound and vibrate the camera.

In fact, only Xu Xiaoming and others who filmed this movie know that these are absolutely true without any special effects packaging!

When shooting this scene, director Xu Xiaoming originally wanted to use special effects to bring out the power of Chen Zhen's fists.However, Chen Xiaotang used the Neijia Bengquan he had practiced, and when the fist came out, there was a crackling sound of air blasting, which shocked Xu Xiaoming and others dumbfounded immediately.

Even Li Lianjie, the future "Emperor of Kung Fu", admired Chen Xiaotang's impeccable internal boxing technique. Thinking of his loss to Chen Xiaotang before, it was really a good loss!
On the movie screen, "Fujita Takeshi", who was twisting his neck and making a fierce look, was also surprised, but he was only surprised for a while before turning into excitement, bloodthirsty excitement.

Here I want to make it clear that the surprise just now played by "Take Fujita" played by Zhou Billi is absolutely true!

When he saw "Chen Zhen" played by Chen Xiaotang, he was able to break through the air, and the expression on his face was the same as before. As the director, Xu Xiaoming took pictures of his expression without losing the opportunity.
