Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 861 Cold Weapons

After hearing what Lin Daoqiu said, Yuan Heping immediately nodded with a smile.

"This time Qingxia is still the same as before, she needs to go to Yuan's class for two months of training."

Regarding Lin Daoqiu's request, Yuan Heping did not express any opinions.

If it was someone else, not to mention asking his heroine to train for two months, I'm afraid it would be impossible even for two weeks.

At this time in Xiangjiang, Lin Daoqiu is the only one who is so serious about action movies.

"Ba Ye, I will trouble you this time."

After Brigitte Lin finished speaking, she raised her teacup as a respect to Yuan Heping.

Yuan Heping didn't even dare to say it, so he picked up the teacup and saluted it.

"Miss Lin is too polite. It's our good fortune that the Yuan family can cooperate with Miss Lin. It's not a trouble."

Yuan Heping shook his hands while talking.

"The new movie I want to open is an adventure action movie, similar to "The Mummy", but this time the protagonist is Qingxia."

When filming "The Mummy" before, Yuan Heping was also the director of that film.

This is also the reason why Lin Daoqiu first thought of looking for him.

"I don't know the action design this time, does Mr. Lin have any requirements?"

Yuan Heping knew that Lin Daoqiu was not the kind of person who called martial arts instructors over and asked them to choreograph the movements themselves.

Lin Daoqiu has his own ideas, and many times, those ideas of Lin Daoqiu will indeed bring him a lot of problems.

But precisely because of this, after solving these problems, Yuan Heping felt that he had also been improved in some aspects.

So for Yuan Heping, this is a painful and happy feeling.

"After years of evolution, action movies have bid farewell to the previous tedious comparisons, so this time the actions are arranged in a fast, ruthless, and accurate way."

Since Lin Daoqiu chooses to shoot "Tomb Raider", he believes that the most important action scene of this film must be enjoyable to watch.

The kind of routine where you punch me and kick me is definitely not in line with the movie "Tomb Raider".

So when Lin Daoqiu talked with Yuan Heping about the choreography, he still followed the previous requirements.

But if it's just this, I'm afraid it won't make people feel that "Tomb Raider" is different from other action movies.

Even Lin Daoqiu was worried that if the action arrangement was done according to the previous action method, it would remind people of the movie "Mission Impossible".

"This time, I hope that Ba Ye can be a little more innovative when designing moves. Simply put, he wants to play well."

What Lin Daoqiu said was simple, but for Yuan Heping, these requirements were really not an easy thing to do.

If it were someone else, it would be easy for Yuan Heping to solve it, as long as he arranged it in his own way.

At most, design some moves based on the characteristics of the protagonist, and it should be almost the same.

"Every time I cooperate with Mr. Lin, I am both looking forward to and afraid, but please rest assured Mr. Lin, I will try my best to design actions according to your requirements."

Yuan Heping has no clue now, so he can only take one step at a time.

"Actually, Ba Ye doesn't need to be so nervous. This time, besides fists and guns, I plan to let Qingxia use some cold weapons that she hasn't used before."

In addition to fists and firearms in action movies, cold weapons are actually one of the options.

It's just that Lin Daoqiu didn't think about this before.

But in the movie "Tomb Raider", there are only movements of fists, feet and guns, which obviously cannot highlight the strength of the heroine.

That's why Lin Daoqiu planned to use a cold weapon this time, which also allowed the audience to distinguish Lin Qingxia's roles in "Mission Impossible" and "Tomb Raider".

"I don't know what weapon Mr. Lin intends for Ms. Lin to learn?"

Hearing that Lin Daoqiu wanted her to learn weapons, Brigitte Lin also became nervous.

What she was most afraid of were those long sticks and the like, but it was hard for her to say that she didn't like them at this time.

And Yuan Heping wanted to know if Lin Daoqiu had planned in advance which weapon Brigitte Lin would use, or if he let Lin Daoqiu use it freely.

"Double knives, daggers, short swords, simple and efficient killing weapons like these."

Lin Daoqiu didn't want Brigitte Lin to learn things like long sticks or simple knives.

So the first thing he thought of was a weapon that could be used for melee combat, and that could be hidden on the body so that it would not be easy to be found.

Yuan Heping nodded while listening. As long as there is a clear direction, for him, the difficulty can be reduced a lot.

"Mr. Lin, don't worry, I will do more research on this during this time."

And Lin Qingxia was secretly relieved when she heard that Lin Daoqiu wanted her to learn double knives, daggers, short swords and the like.

…………

Just a few days after Yuan Heping finished talking with Lin Daoqiu, the news that Lin Daoqiu was going to open a new play suddenly spread in Xiangjiang.

The people who spread this matter were naturally not Lin Daoqiu and Brigitte Lin.

When he heard the news, Yuan Heping angrily called Yuan Xinyi, Yuan Richu, and Yuan Xiangren over.

"Can any of you tell me who spread the news that Mr. Lin is going to open a new play?"

Yuan Heping only talked to the three of them about this matter, so it must have been leaked by one of them.

Although Yuan Heping asked this question, in fact, his gaze was always on Yuan Xiangren.

For some reason, Yuan Heping felt that most of the people who told the story were Yuan Xiangren.

"Brother, what are you doing looking at me like this? I didn't say this."

Yuan Xiangren found that Yuan Heping had been staring at him, and he panicked all of a sudden.

"I just looked at you and didn't say anything. Why are you so nervous?"

Yuan Xiangren's reaction made Yuan Heping frown all of a sudden.

Yuan Xinyi and Yuan Richu who were beside them silently retreated to the side, and then looked on with cold eyes.

Being stared at by the three brothers, Yuan Xiangren originally wanted to continue to cover up.

But he finally lowered his head silently.

"Drinking with friends two days ago, I accidentally told the story after drinking. I really didn't mean it."

The three people in the room couldn't help shaking their heads after hearing what Yuan Xiangren said.

"Go and explain to Mr. Lin yourself, I won't help you get sacked."

As soon as Yuan Heping finished speaking, Yuan Xiangren, who was lowering his head, immediately raised his head.

Asking him to explain to Lin Daoqiu was simply a joke.

He and Lin Daoqiu hadn't even met face-to-face, and now that the news spread that the other party was going to open a new play, Yuan Xiangren was worried that Lin Daoqiu might kill him.

"If I had known today, why bother to stop drinking for me, otherwise I wouldn't be able to help you."

"I know bro."

Yuan Xiangren bowed his head and answered weakly.
