Hong Kong Entertainment: The King of Kung Fu

Chapter 85: Time travel as early as possible

Yang Ye was lying shirtless on the bed, and Adjani was lying in his arms.

Yang Ye's mood is a bit complicated now. He didn't expect that he actually got Adjani's first blood.

How can this be?

But lion poop is better than bear poop, period!

"I heard that men in the East are very responsible, right?"

"……mostly."

"You still value chastity?"

"……mostly."

"So, because I'm a virgin, you have a sense of responsibility that you shouldn't have?"

"Yes!"

"You can't understand why I kept it for 20 years and then gave it to you casually?"

"Yes!"

"Well, because my boss has always wanted to own me, but I don't want to take advantage of him. You are lucky."

Damn, that’s what happened?
"But...why me?"

"Because your kung fu is amazing and attracted me. You invited me to watch your movie. I thought, since you want to date me, then I'll go with you. At least it's very special. I just didn't expect that, You also gave me a song, "My Name is Adjani". I like this song very much, it was a wonderful night, I will remember it!"

Yang Ye suddenly felt that there was something wrong with her brain. She is a virgin. Are you unhappy?Are you happy that she is not a virgin?

Do you think this is bizarre?You have traveled through time, is there anything more bizarre than this in the world?

Isn’t it nice to have the aura of the protagonist?
Cool!
Yang Ye now understands a truth: time travel must be done as early as possible.

Look at those who wear 90s or after the millennium, there are not many beautiful women, they are still complacent about drinking some shabu water, they don’t have to copy their songs, and the movies are all bad...

It’s better now than ever, with good songs readily available, a bunch of classic movies, and the girls are all top-notch...

Well, next time I will find a chance to play with Diana and add some color to the British royal family.

……

The early morning sunlight shone into the room, illuminating Adjani's flawless face. She sat up lazily, covered her chest with a quilt, squinted her eyes, and said to Yang Ye, who was boxing on the balcony: "Good morning. !”

"Good morning!" Yang Ye didn't stop and continued to punch.

"Can you teach me kung fu?"

Yang Ye stopped his hand and said with a smile: "You want to learn kung fu?"

"Ronald Knox, the famous British detective novelist, proposed the famous 'Knox Ten Commandments'. One of them is that no Chinese are allowed to appear in the story. Because the Chinese are all capable of magical kung fu. So when a Chinese When it appears in the story, the strict logic of detective novels disappears. I always thought this was too stereotyped, and it wasn’t until I met you yesterday that I realized it was true.”

Knox's Ten Commandments are not racist because logical reasoning has a basic premise: the absolute exclusion of supernatural forces.

Detective novels describe a real world that ordinary people can accept and understand. Otherwise, the reasoning will lack a reasonable basis. If the reasoning is pushed to the end and strange forces and chaos appear, the charm of the reasoning itself will no longer exist.

For example, if a person is locked in a high courtyard from all sides, it is impossible for him to escape.

But what if this is a Chinese who knows Qinggong?The strict reasoning logic collapsed instantly.

Last night in the bar, Yang Ye jumped so high, he was obviously a Chinese who knows Qinggong.

Yang Ye was a bit dumbfounded and said: "Okay, I'll teach you!"

Adjani happily ran to brush her teeth and wash her face, tied her hair into a simple ponytail, and asked, "Shall we start now?"

Yang Ye nodded, put on a "right body and two-character clamping sheep and horse" posture and said, "Follow me."

Adjani followed suit. She was very flexible. Yang Ye had already tried it last night, so her posture was pretty standard.

Yang Ye nodded and slowly executed one move after another. The two of them taught and learned the skills one by one. They finished practicing a set of "Wing Chun Little Thoughts" slowly. Adjani had already begun to sweat.

Adjani asked: "This Kung Fu looks so soft, why don't you teach me the Kung Fu you do in the movie?"

She said and made two gestures.

Yang Ye placed a chair in the room and said, "Come here."

Adjani came over as instructed and stood next to Yang Ye. Yang Ye patted the back of the chair and suddenly hit it hard, causing the chair to fly two meters away in an instant.

Adjani was stunned. She blurted out: "Bruce Lee! So you can do it too!"

Yang Yexin said, damn, is Brother Long so famous?
Adjani explained: "My friends and I once watched Bruce Lee use this move to knock a man away on TV. We always thought it was a performance by the two of them cooperating with each other. It turns out that this is all true. What kind of kung fu is it?”

"Wing Chun!"

"Wing Chun?"

"Yes, Wing Chun is the name of a woman. She invented this Kung Fu, so it is named after her."

"Wow, she's such a great woman, I'm going to learn this."

……

Yang Ye returned to the hotel where he originally stayed at noon and saw Hu Yinmeng sitting there eating a burger.

"You want this for lunch? Xie didn't ask you to dinner?" Hu Yinmeng rolled his eyes: "Why did he ask me to dinner?"

"I can see that he is very interested in you!"

"I told him that I was your lover, and he backed down."

"Um..." Yang Ye was a little speechless. He walked to his room, "I'll take a rest for a while. Shay will come and call me."

Yang Ye took a nap and Xie came.

"Nick, our competitors are very strong this time."

"How strong?"

"Besides us, among the other four shortlisted films, one is the Japanese-Bennis film "Looking Homeward". At last year's West Berlin Film Festival, Tanaka Chiyo won the Best Actress for this film.

One is the Italian film "Scent of a Woman", which competed with you at Cannes last year and was nominated for the Palme d'Or and won the Best Actor award.

A Polish film "Blessed Land". Although this film does not have an international film festival background, it is adapted from the novel of the same name by Nobel Prize winner Wladyslaw and is also very powerful.

The last film, "Desu Uzala", a co-production between Nippon and Mao Xiong, is a work that Kurosawa has been honing for five years and is also the biggest favorite for the best foreign language film this time. "

Although he is unwilling to admit it, Akira Kurosawa is the most powerful film master of this era and has a huge influence on future generations.

Europe and the United States call him the Shakespeare of the film industry. Francis Coppola, the director of "The Godfather", even wrote to the Swedish Academy requesting that the film be included in the Nobel Prize for Literature and be awarded to Akira Kurosawa.

In Japan, Akira Kurosawa is called the Emperor of Movies. Although this title is actually a bit ironic, because this guy is strict and detail-oriented when making movies, is arbitrary, has a bad temper, and loves to curse. All the actors he works with are like He had a falling out.

After Toshiro Mifune and Akira Kurosawa had a falling out, Kurosawa's films were overturned one after another and the box office crashed. Faced with the situation of having no films to film, he couldn't bear the blow and committed suicide by slitting his wrists in his bathroom.

It didn't work out, and then it received investment from the Bear Country. After five years of hard work, the Japanese-Soviet co-production "Desu Uzala" was finally completed.

Yang Ye had no idea whether he could defeat Akira Kurosawa.After all, the old guy has dominated the film industry for decades.

However, "Desu Uzala" is still almost boring compared to Kurosawa's peak works.

"Desu Uzala" is a movie about man and nature. The male protagonist Desu Uzala is a Hezhen hunter who believes in animism and often talks to himself in the air.

Since it was produced by Mao Xiong, Akira Kurosawa was just the executor. In fact, he did not have much say. During the filming process, there were only five people in the Nippon team, and the others were all old men.

Kurosawa was often furious because he couldn't get a satisfactory shot, but the old man didn't listen to him.For example, he wanted to go out and shoot in the primitive jungles of Northeast China, but in the end he could only shoot in a studio in Moscow.

Fortunately, the national system of the Bear Country determines that they don't care about the time cost of making a movie, so Kurosawa can go back and forth, grinding for five years, and finally complete the movie.

If you are making a movie in Hollywood, Americans will not tolerate him. Kurosawa Akira and Fox collaborated on "Tora!"Tiger!Tiger! ", he was fired as director after only 20 days of shooting.

In the film Desu Uzala, voice-overs are present throughout the film.

Generally speaking, a director of Akira Kurosawa's level should not rely on narration and lines, presumably because he is bound by realistic shooting.

Because of this, Yang Ye feels that he still has a chance to change history.

Shea said: "Three days later, we will have a cocktail party at the Hilton Hotel. I invited some well-known directors and film critics to attend. People are very interested in the action scenes you show in the movie. You need to prepare a speech to tell the story. Let’s talk about the filming process of the movie.”

Although Yang Ye didn't like doing this, he also knew that it was essential.

Yang Ye said to Xie: "Get me the guest list and resume, preferably with photos."

Xie Yi said in surprise: "What do you want these for?"

"Just find him."

"All right!"

In the evening, Xie Yi compiled the information and brought it to Yang Ye.

Yang Ye took the list and read it one by one, including names, resumes, and photos.

Without seeing real people, Yang Ye could easily get the detailed information of these people through comparison.

Yang Ye quickly found out everything about these people's interests and preferences, and even unknown private events.

The next day, Yang Ye drew up a list and said to Xie: "As a souvenir after the banquet, prepare it according to the list I made."

Xie Yi looked a little confused. These souvenirs were of various kinds, with colors and styles indicated. It was really not easy to prepare them all.

"Why is it so complicated?"

"Don't ask, just prepare according to my requirements. Mark the names so they don't get mistaken when the time comes."

"All right!"

Shay didn't know what medicine he was selling in his gourd, but he did as he was told.

To Xie Yi's surprise, the guests were very satisfied with the reception and praised "Shaolin Temple" a lot afterwards.

Many people call "Shaolin Temple" one of the greatest action movies of all time.

Especially the volley kick in the final showdown was even selected as the No. 1974 most classic movie shot in 1 by Sight and Sound magazine.

Yang Ye secretly laughed, as expected, he was taking people's money to eliminate disasters.

For more than half a month, Yang Ye lived a very comfortable life, except for attending cocktail parties and watching movies.The rest of the time is spent hanging out with Adjani, either having sex with her or teaching her how to box.

At the end of March, the 48th Academy Awards ceremony began.
