Hong Kong Entertainment: The King of Kung Fu

When Jet Li wanted to set up a film studio, Yang Ye also gave him a topic.

Later, Jet Li completed the task brilliantly and made the box office hit "Fong Sai-yuk", and only then did he become a boss.

When it was Zhen Zidan's turn, he didn't have much to say. Yang Ye just asked him to form a team of martial artists.

As an action actor, the team of martial arts stuntmen is the capital for his survival.

Hong Kong's top action actors all have their own team. Without this group of trustworthy brothers, you can't accomplish anything.

So Zhen Zidan turned around and started recruiting soldiers without saying a word.

However, all the powerful martial artists in Hong Kong belong to different factions. Since he cannot recruit people from the Cheng family or the Hung family, he can only recruit those wild martial artists.

As the capital for his own survival, naturally not everyone can join. Zhen Zidan must assess and recruit them one by one.

He traveled to both sides of the Taiwan Strait, Hong Kong, Macau, Japan, South Korea, and even Europe and the United States. It took him three years to finally gather a group of high-quality people and set up a team.

This doesn't mean that he has done nothing in the past three years and has been looking for people everywhere.

He was also making a movie, and during the filming process he collaborated with other martial artists, getting to know them, and then absorbing them into his own team if he felt they were suitable.

Zhen Zidan is already a well-known action star, and he can also use Yang Ye's skin, and he really teaches things, so the martial artists he invites are still very willing to follow him.

Among the martial arts teams in later generations, the best was the Cheng family team, followed by the Zhen family team.

The Cheng family's martial arts team is spread all over the world.

Hollywood's "Kingsman" series, "Kick-Ass" series, "Star Wars" series...

The Wolf Warriors series, Detective Chinatown series, and action series (Mekong River, Red Sea) from mainland China...

Many exciting blockbusters were produced by the Cheng family team, and they are also the martial arts team that has won the most Best Action Director Awards at the Hong Kong Film Awards and the Golden Horse Awards.

The Zhen family team has also directed many well-known films at home and abroad. Not to mention the domestic ones, there are also overseas ones such as the superhero movie "Blade", the Japanese movie "Shurayuki" and "Rurouni Kenshin".

That’s all later. The most important thing now is the much anticipated annual finals of “The Voice of China”.

……

Hung Hom Stadium, the annual finals of "The Voice of China".

Ren Xianqi, Gu Juji, Elva Hsiao, and Wang Fei looked at the dark crowd in the audience from backstage, feeling very excited and nervous.

The glory of Hong Kong music in the 1980s made the Hong Kong Coliseum a "temple" of the Chinese music scene!
Performing at the Hong Kong Coliseum has become the ultimate dream of all Chinese singers.

Just like performing at Budokan is the ultimate dream of all Japanese singers.

And now, the four of them will finally stand in the center of the stage of the Hong Kong Coliseum and receive cheers from the crowd.

In the Bay Area, Taiwan, and Southeast Asian countries, many families are waiting in front of their TVs to watch this ultimate battle.

At eight o'clock, the concert officially began, with the four mentors and their four finalists performing the opening performance.

Among thousands of stars, Deng Lijun and her four finalists made a shining appearance.

As the music started, Teresa Tang began to sing: "In my heart, I once had a dream, to use my singing to make you forget all the pain."

After Teresa Deng sang a line, she made a gesture of invitation, and George Lam and his four finalists appeared on the stage.

George Lam began to sing: "Splendid starry sky, who is the real hero? Ordinary people move me the most."

Afterwards, Zhang Guorong appeared with his top four students.

Zhang Guorong began to sing: "There is no more hatred, no more pain, I hope there is love everywhere in the world."

Yang Ye and his top four finally appeared, and Yang Ye began to sing: "We will use our songs to exchange for your sincere smile!"

The four mentors sang together: "May your life be different from now on!"

Then, the four major teams sang in turn:
“Seize every minute of your life!”

"Go all out to realize the dream in our hearts!"

“You can’t see the rainbow without going through the storm!”

“No one can succeed easily!”

Everyone sang together: "Seize every touch in life, embrace your beloved friends warmly, and let the sincere words and happy tears flow in your heart and mine."

The song "True Hero", with simple and inspiring lyrics and catchy melody, provided a stunning start to the peak night.

This song was very appropriate for the occasion, as if it was tailor-made for tonight's event, and it instantly infected countless people.

In front of the TV, Jia Jingwen listened to this song and suddenly said, "Dad, Mom, I want to go to Hong Kong!"

Lin Li was stunned: "What are you going to Hong Kong for?"

Jia Jingwen pointed at Yang Ye on TV and said, "I want to be a trainee."

Lin Li said: "Hong Kong is so far away, Huagang Art School is also very good!"

A few months ago, Jia Jingwen was discovered by a scout because of her beautiful looks and starred in a food commercial.

After the commercial was aired, she took the opportunity to play a role in the TV series "Jia Jia Fu".

She had just graduated from junior high school, so she applied to Huagang Arts School for high school.

Huagang Arts School is the cradle of Taiwanese stars, so it was natural for Jia Jingwen to go to this school.

But she suddenly didn't want to go to this school anymore, she wanted to go to Hong Kong to be a trainee.

Jia's father was very supportive of his daughter's decision to take this path. He later went to Tianjin to do business, and Jia Jingwen followed him and went to the Beijing Film Academy.

Father Jia said, "Actually, I have inquired about this matter. To be a trainee at Baiyang Company, you have to practice for at least two years. You have to practice every day. It is very hard. Are you sure you want to go?"

Jia Jingwen was surprised and asked, "Dad, when did you find out?"

"When Deng Lijun came to our restaurant for dinner, I shamelessly went up to her and asked her."

"Ah, when did Deng Lijun come to our restaurant for dinner?"

"A few days ago during the Mid-Autumn Festival, she brought Ren Xianqi and a few others. Deng Lijun is from Hebei, and she loves the food in our restaurant."

"Aren't they preparing for the finals of The Voice? Why are they coming back to Taiwan?" "It seems like they are coming back to celebrate the holidays and relax so that Ren Xianqi can better face the finals."

"She is really fine!" Jia Jingwen said with her chin in her hand, looking longingly.

"Dad, I'm not afraid of hard work. I want to go to Hong Kong!"

"If you have the ambition, I'll help you make the contact. I feel the people in this company are pretty good. It would be a blessing for you if you could join."

"Dad, you're the best!" Jia Jingwen hugged her dad excitedly and refused to let go.

……

On TV, the host has announced the rules for the finals.

Like the previous group matches, the results of the competition were determined by two rounds of singing, but there were two differences.

First, the first round of singing is no longer a solo by the students, but the mentors will personally collaborate with the students to sing a song together.

Second, since the show is opening today at the Hong Kong Coliseum, it is impossible to invite more than 10,000 people on site to be judges, so we will use professional judges today.

Star TV invited musicians and music critics from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and four regions to form a professional jury of 500 people to vote on the spot.

These two changes made the audience very satisfied.

First, you can see the instructor personally taking part, which is naturally something that people enjoy watching.

Secondly, because it is difficult to satisfy everyone, the previous 500 public judges made many people dissatisfied, and some even mocked them as 500 deaf people.

This time, we invited professionals from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and four places to serve as judges, which just happened to shut everyone up.

You can't say these professionals are 500 deaf, right?
However, the cost of doing this is too high. It is only because The Voice of China is a big hit this year that this can be done once in the finals. It is absolutely impossible at other times.

……

Soon, the singing session led by the instructor began.

Yang Ye and Elva Hsiao were the first to appear on stage.

Su Huilun was dressed like a cute little princess, standing in a corner of the stage, walking towards Yang Ye while singing emotionally:

“Watching time fly by, I pray for tomorrow.

Every little dream can be realized slowly.

I am so ordinary, yet so lucky.

I say thank you every day of my life."

The lyrics are simple and touching, as if telling Yang Ye how she feels at the moment.

She is just an ordinary girl, but now she is standing on the stage of the Hong Kong Coliseum, singing for millions of people.

She wants to say thank you to Yang Ye who turned around for her, every day in my life.

Yang Ye stood on the other side of the stage. He walked towards Elva Hsiao while singing emotionally:

“Watching time fly by, I look back.

I used to be a reckless teenager, and my days were like years.

I am so ordinary, yet so lucky.

I say thank you every day of my life."

The part sung by Yang Ye was like a self-narration. Although he is now successful and famous, he was once a reckless teenager.

It also seemed like encouragement, as if telling Elva Hsiao that one day you will also be successful.

The two of them sang a section each and walked to the center of the stage.

Yang Ye held Elva Hsiao's hand and continued to sing: "Let me share the brightest part of my life with you."

Elva Hsiao responded: "Let me accompany you with the most resonant singing voice in my life."

Yang Ye: "Let me give you the softest part of my heart when you need a friend the most."

Elva Hsiao: "Let me be sincere to you every day!"

Duet: "Let me love you sincerely every day!"

……

The song "Every Day of My Life" was very appropriate for the occasion and well suited to their teacher-student relationship, and naturally won a lot of applause.

However, Yang Ye and Li Zongsheng just couldn't get along tonight. He sang "True Hero" and then "Every Day of My Life" over and over again.

Old Li, who was sitting in the guest seats, suddenly touched his head for no apparent reason.

He said to Luo Dayou who was sitting next to him: "Lao Luo, what do you think of their singing?"

Luo Dayou thought for a moment and commented seriously, "Su Huilun's voice is clean and sweet. Yang Ye's voice is steady and magnetic. The two voices complement each other. Singing the same song is very suitable and sounds very good. It gives me goose bumps."

Li Zongsheng nodded and said, "Yeah, I think it sounds good too. You just have goose bumps, but my scalp is numb!"

……

Yang Ye and Su Huilun performed a show of deep affection between master and disciple on the stage and then walked off the stage together.

It was George Lam and Leo Ku's turn to perform, and they sang George Lam's classic song "Dare to Do, Dare to Love".

The song was very exciting and the master and apprentice sang loudly on the stage.

"The cold rain falls on me, flying in all directions. The thousand-degree hot waves surge up from you.

Everyone says I am too wild and laughs at my unruly nature. How can it be considered contemptible to dare to hand over the truth?

Crazy hugs, kisses without rest, no need to breathe air, no need for street spectators to stay away.

In the drizzle, cars flew by, people walked by, traffic lights urged us to hurry, and only you and I were left..."

The passionate singing of the two moved the whole audience. Many people waved their light sticks and howled at the top of their lungs. The whole Hong Kong Coliseum was in high spirits... (End of this chapter)
