Hong Kong Entertainment: The King of Kung Fu

After the footage was edited, everyone was convinced again.

Yang Ye did not take a close-up shot of the action of pulling the gun away, but instead used two close-up shots of the action before and after to form a series of quick forward and reverse shots, which increased the tense sense of rhythm.

After watching this set of shots, everyone suddenly realized that if they really shot a set of close-up shots of the gun being knocked down, it would appear tedious.

……

The last scene at the steel mill!

T1000 was knocked into a pool of molten steel, struggled for a while, and then died.

Yang Lisha asked: "Is it dead?"

T800 said: "It's ended!"

Yang Han took out the mechanical arm from his backpack and asked, "Will this melt?"

T800 said: "Yes, throw it down!"

Yang Han threw the mechanical arm into the molten steel pool: "Goodbye!"

“And there are chips!”

The chip was also thrown down.

Yang Lisha sighed: "It's all over!"

"No, there is another chip!" T800 pointed to his head: "It must also be destroyed!"

What follows is a touching farewell scene. Since Yang Ye's version of T800 is disguised as Li Kai, Yang Lisha also has a special feeling for this robot. In a trance, she thinks this is her husband!

The same goes for Yang Han, he will treat this robot as his father!
Therefore, this version of the farewell scene is somewhat different from the original time and space. In addition to the child’s reluctance, there is also the woman’s reluctance.

Yang Ye and his team sat together for a long time to discuss how to make the story more sincere.

Of course, the final ending is the same, the robot slowly falls into the pool of molten steel, and finally raises its arms and gives a thumbs up!

……

Yang Ye climbed out of the pool, and the staff immediately brought a towel over. Yang Ye wiped his face and announced loudly: "The live-action filming is over."

"Clap, clap, clap!" Everyone applauded enthusiastically!
"But... everyone please don't leave for now. Rest here for three days while we check for leaks and make up for the deficiencies. Otherwise, this steel mill will be abandoned and there will be no way to rebuild it!"

Finishing the live-action part doesn’t mean the movie is finished.

There are still two hard bones to chew.

One is a hell scene of a nuclear explosion in Los Angeles.

One is the future battlefield, the war between the rebels and Skynet.

Both of these scenes were shot with the help of miniature models, and naturally they were done back in Hong Kong.

……

San Francisco, Teresa Tang’s home.

Yang Ye held Yang Xin in his left hand and Yang Min in his right hand, and kissed them both, adoring them like crazy.

But the two babies refused to give him face and struggled to get down to the ground.

Today is the first birthday of the two babies. Deng Lijun said with some resentment: "Finally you still remember the children's birthdays!"

Yang Ye said: "Silly boy, how could I forget? I worked so hard to catch up with the progress just to come and accompany you earlier!"

“When will you return to Hong Kong?”

Yang Ye said with a bitter face: "Three days later!"

Deng Lijun curled her lips: "That's right!"

"Would you like to come back to Hong Kong with me?"

"No, I'm fine here!"

"You don't want your child to be away from his father for a long time, do you?"

"Even if I go back to Hong Kong, won't you still be traveling around the world?"

"At least I spend most of my time in Hong Kong!"

"So what..." Deng Lijun originally wanted to say, you have so many women, it would be the same for me to stay in Hong Kong, but she didn't say it in the end.

If she couldn't accept it, she wouldn't have started it in the first place. The child is so big now, there's no point in talking so much!
Deng Lijun changed her mind and wondered, why should I be in the United States with my children while he is living a happy life in Hong Kong?
“I’m going back to Hong Kong!”

"That's good!" Yang Ye kissed Deng Lijun happily.

"The birthday cake is here!" Deng Lijun's younger brother pushed out a birthday cake.

The couple was arguing just now, but immediately they were all smiling, one holding a baby, and singing Happy Birthday!

……

The children are asleep.

There was no light on in the bedroom, and the cold moonlight shone through the window.

Under the moonlight, on the big bed, Yang Ye was sweating profusely, working hard, and pounding piles non-stop.

Sometimes he hit from the front, sometimes from the back, and sometimes from the side.

After tossing and turning for half the night, I finally shivered...

Then his wife got up and helped him clean the drill bit.

Comfortable!

After taking a shower, the two lay back on the bed, hugging each other and chatting.

"You can't go to the mainland to participate in the Spring Festival Gala. I can't think of a way."

"Oh!"

"But there's no need to rush. When the situation changes, we can always go there."

"Yes!" "The Golden Melody Awards Organizing Committee wants to give you the Golden Needle Award, why don't you accept it?"

“I don’t think I’m qualified!”

"So when Uncle Chan came to see you, you told him that your arms weren't thick enough?"

"Yes, and I have retired from the music industry!"

"When did you quit the music industry? How come I didn't know?"

"You're the one who told me to recover from my illness, and I have to take care of the kids now, so I don't have time to sing!"

"We are still singing OSTs, the previous song "When You Are Old" was very popular, and this time there is another movie theme song, I would like to invite you to sing it."

"What song?" Deng Lijun has been singing all her life. Although she has retired now, she still wants to sing, so she immediately became interested!

"There are no lyrics yet. I'll hum a part. Would you like to listen?"

"wait!"

Deng Lijun turned on the light, got out of bed, took out a harmonica necklace from the drawer, and said, "Use this to play!"

When Yang Ye saw the harmonica necklace, he couldn't help but feel touched and asked softly, "You always carry it with you?"

This necklace was given to Deng Lijun by Yang Ye when he went to Japan to sell "Shaolin Temple" eleven years ago.

Deng Lijun smiled and said, "Yes, this is the first gift you gave me, how could I throw it away? It is well maintained and can still be blown!"

"Xiaojun, you are so nice!" Yang Ye felt his eyes a little moist.

"Don't be cheesy, blow me now!"

"Where to blow?"

"Hey, how come you can think of something wrong anytime and anywhere?"

"I learned this from you!"

"Hehe, then I'll blow you?"

Yang Ye was delighted: "Okay, okay!"

Deng Lijun said with a straight face: "Stop dreaming, hurry up!"

Yang Ye had no choice but to hold the harmonica to his lips and try a few notes. Then, a melodious and graceful tune came out of his mouth.

The music carries a tinge of sadness, but in its poignant melody, it also seems to carry a spirit of striving forward, a spirit of not looking back and moving forward courageously even though one knows the tragic outcome.

Deng Lijun was so fascinated by what she heard that she burst into tears without realizing it.

When the song ended, the two of them snuggled up to each other in silence. Only the moonlight from outside poured in through the window and sprinkled on them.

"What a beautiful piece of music, what's its name?"

"'Sea of ​​Clouds Under the Moonlight'!"

Deng Lijun looked at the night sky outside the window and praised: "This song title is very meaningful!"

Yang Ye said: "Do you remember? Four years ago, in Tokyo, we went to watch a cartoon."

"I remember, it was called 'Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind'. Later we went to meet the director of the movie. His name was...what was it?"

"Hayao Miyazaki. I invested in them and founded Studio Ghibli. Now, the first feature film from Studio Ghibli is out, and it's called Castle in the Sky.

This song "Sea of ​​Clouds Under the Moonlight" is the theme music of "Castle in the Sky". I hope that after I write the lyrics, you can sing the Chinese and Japanese versions of the theme song."

The Ghibli in this time and space had to distract itself from making the "Transformers" TV animation, which resulted in the progress of "Castle in the Sky" being several months slower than the original time and space, and its release time was also delayed by half a year.

"So that's how it is. I'll take this job!" Deng Lijun liked the song very much and readily agreed.

Yang Ye went around in circles and asked, "Okay, now you're going to release a new song, so you're no longer considered to be retiring from the music industry, right? Are you still going to accept the Golden Needle Award?"

……

The Golden Needle Award is the highest honor in the Hong Kong music scene. In history, only two people have refused this award.

The first one was Teresa Teng. In 1987, the organizing committee of the “Top Ten Chinese Songs” found her and wanted to award her an award.

We met in a cafe near Stanley. Deng Lijun raised her arms and said, "Look, you're so thin. You don't have enough strength."

Then he left the cafe, got into his friend's car, and left. The organizing committee was very helpless.

Despite this, the "Top Ten Chinese Songs" still wanted to give her the Golden Needle Award.

In 1995, Teresa Tang passed away unfortunately, and the "Top Ten Chinese Songs" immediately posthumously awarded her a Golden Needle Award.

This made some fans who didn't know the truth very dissatisfied. Why didn't you give the award when he was still alive? Why did you force it on him after he passed away?
Another one is Kenny Kwan, who refused to accept the award because he had retired from the music industry a long time ago and was getting fat due to his age.

Go and receive the award. I don't want my fans to see him in his old age. Lose weight before receiving the award? That's too painful. Let's just beg for mercy!

……

Deng Lijun thought for a moment and said seriously, "Actually, I feel that compared to those of you who have won the Golden Needle Award, I am not qualified enough!"

Yang Ye was stunned: "You are the number one singer in the Chinese music scene. If you are not qualified, who is? Are you laughing at us?"

Deng Lijun said seriously, "Since you won the Golden Needle Award for the first time in 1981, who have won the award? They are either composers, playwrights, or founders of record companies. I am just a simple singer. In terms of contribution, how can I compare with you?"

The Golden Needle Awards in this time and space began with Yang Ye in 1981, followed by Joseph Koo, Ao Jinbao, Liu Dong, Xu Guanjie and Tang Tik-sheng.

Among them, Yang Ye and Xu Guanjie are singers and composers.

Joseph Koo and Ao Jinbao are music producers and composers. The award for Ao Jinbao was actually given to Radio Hong Kong, and Ao Jinbao was the representative who received the award.

Liu Dong is the founder of the record company, and Tang Tik-sheng is a Cantonese opera playwright. It was awarded posthumously, and Tang Tik-sheng passed away more than ten years ago.

Yang Ye said: "The entire Asia-Pacific region and the entire Chinese world are singing your songs. Just based on this, your contribution is great enough.

And the Golden Needle Awards never said that pure singers can't be awarded. If you refuse with this reason, how will Xiao Fengjie, Alan and others win awards in the future?"

"Ah?" Deng Lijun had never thought about this.

In fact, it is clear once you think about it. If she refuses to accept the award on the grounds that she is just a singer, then it seems to really cut off the way out for other pure singers. Will they accept it or not?
Yang Ye smiled and said: "So, you must accept this award!" (End of this chapter)
