Actor: Thank you.

"drink!"

"what!"

clap clap clap...

On the set, Zhang Yuan and Ikeuchi Hiroyuki's fighting scenes were filmed for several consecutive days.

There were one or two days during which we were delayed due to rain, so we had to shoot other scenes first.

The winter in Shanghai is cold and humid, which makes the crew members of the Hong Kong team very uncomfortable.

The clothes are cool on the outside and warm on the inside.

I get hot and sweaty while working, so I cover myself in it, which makes it wet and sticky.

Because of the temperature and humidity, it still can't dry.

It's like a dog-skin plaster with ice chips on it that can't be torn off.

Instead of carrying thick clothes, Zhang Yuan felt that it would be better to wear short costumes like them. It would be a little colder, but not so stuffy.

Zhang Yuan blocked the Japanese soldier's palm strike with his hand, and at the same time raised his knee high to block the opponent's side kick.

The hands used are the marked eight Wing Chun hands.

However, the leg techniques used are subject to their own requirements.

It is like the spreading of feet which corresponds to the spreading of hands in the Eight Hands of Wing Chun, but there are some differences.

Wing Chun is roughly divided into three schools.

Foshan Wing Chun, Hard Wing Chun, Gu Lao Wing Chun.

Among them, Hard Wing Chun is the most special. It does not use wooden dummies, does not emphasize techniques, and is "abnormally" known for its strength and ferocity.

Wing Chun is a soft style of Kung Fu, but this style uses hard and tough techniques.

That’s because Hard Style Wing Chun combines the techniques of Hung Gar, emphasizing the training of the body and qi.

The remaining Gulao Wing Chun and Foshan Wing Chun are actually two branches of the same lineage, and Mr. Liang Zan is the orthodox instructor of both.

It’s just that Gulao Wing Chun is also called Side-body Wing Chun, which was improved by Mr. Liang in his later years to further shrink the posture and movements of Wing Chun, making it more suitable for use in narrow spaces.

The most "orthodox" Foshan Wing Chun has started to engage in "internal strife" again.

Later in the third part of "Ip Man", there was a character played by Zhang Jin named Zhang Tianzhi.

The character is fictional, but the fact that he challenged Ip Man in the film and questioned the authenticity of his boxing skills is true.

Because Foshan Wing Chun is divided into two schools: high kick and low kick.

Its representatives are Liang Zan and Chen Huashun.

And these two happened to be Ip Man's master and advisor.

Liang Zan is more traditional and is good at using low-kick Wing Chun.

The so-called low kick means that the movements are compact and small in amplitude, and there will be no defensive or offensive postures such as raising the legs high or crossing the legs.

Chen Huashun is more adept at using high kick Wing Chun.

The old man didn't mean to compete with Master Liang Zanyi on purpose, but he did want to surpass him.

But Chen Huashun is different.

Most people who learn Wing Chun are no taller than 1 meters.

Because I am tall, I started practicing Hung Gar.

That thing is really exciting and it takes the most out of your body.

But old man Chen Huashun originally worked as an accountant in a money shop.

So he also has a nickname called "Zhao Qianhua".

There is a rule for money houses and pawnshops, which is that they must have high platforms and large cabinets.

That counter must be much higher than ordinary transactions.

This can prevent "guests" from stealing, just like modern banks install bulletproof glass.

Also, I'm a head taller than you, so you have to look up at me.

The customer came to borrow money or pawn something, and was already weak, and was now even more oppressed.

This is a psychological tactic, using psychological pressure on you to gain an advantage in the transaction.

Our ancestors have been playing tricks on people for thousands of years, and they are particularly good at this kind of thing.

Not to mention ancient times, even the counters in some service halls were deliberately designed to make people uncomfortable.

I can't stand up straight and I can't squat down.

You have to stay crouched down so that you can get things done.

Why is this?

It’s the same principle actually.

How high is this counter?

The tallest ones can reach the chin of an average person.

It is high both inside and outside, so the staff will usually prepare a small bench or wooden steps inside.

But when Chen Huashun does this job, he stands on flat ground.

Now you know how tall and strong this person is.

Legend has it that he is 1 meters tall.

In the late Qing Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty, people who were 1 meters tall on the island were called little giants and could serve as honor guards in the army.

To be honest, in that era, the Chinese people ate worse than the Japanese people.

At least they have started industrialization.

So Chinese people are not good in height.

During the Guangxu period, the average height of Chinese men was less than 165 cm, which would be considered a third-class disability in the whole country today.

You can imagine how shocking Chen Huashun's height of just 1.9 meters was at that time.

Legend has it that Huang Feihong once challenged Mr. Liang Zan to a competition.

Mr. Liang is a cunning man. He knows that he is small and old.

Knowing that Huang Feihong had never met him, he sent Chen Huashun to take his place.

As for bridge players, Chen Huashun's skills were far inferior to Huang Feihong's, so he lost.

But later, Chen Huashun broke through Master Huang's Arhat Palm Iron Gate and Bagua Stick.

With pure strength and big physique, he can break any defense with his single force.

He became famous after this battle.

This is how the so-called High-leg Wing Chun came about.

Because when this old man lifts his legs, they are already "high legs", and his height is obvious.

Because he has long legs and arms, the opening and closing of high-foot Wing Chun is larger than that of low-foot Wing Chun, so Mr. Chen can take advantage of his physical strength.

Although Ip Man was not tall, he learned high kicking from Chen Huashun.

The good thing is, the action is big, and the filming is really fun!

Zhang Yuan raised his legs and blocked the Japanese soldier's kick.

He also has long arms and legs, making this just the right size.

"What's rare is that although his movements are big, his speed and flexibility are still good." Liang Xiaolong sighed as he watched from the side.

Huang Julong has not left for the past few days and has taken the initiative to take on the job of bodyguard.

Hearing this, he pursed his lips and nodded.

"is not that right……"

Since I didn't leave, I found time in the evening to practice with Zhang Yuan.

As soon as he started practicing, that question arose in Brother Long's mind again.

"What did he ask me to do?"

"Why do I feel like he doesn't need my protection?"

The punch was powerful and incredibly fast.

His physical strength is also quite amazing.

Therefore, Brother Long estimated that it would not work to fight a war of attrition with him.

This incident has also been recorded by many female stars.

What Zhang Yuan is afraid of is not that others will ask him to practice.

Someone launched a sneak attack.

Jack Ma's bodyguard once blocked a bullet for him.

Yu Minhong was also pointed at with a gun, although it was later discovered that the gun was fake.

Mr. Wu had several guns pointed at his head.

I can still move swiftly when I see someone holding a gun.

But what should I do if someone launches a sneak attack?
Once it's taken out, it'll hit you hard. Even if you've mastered the Golden Bell Cover, you're done for.

Not to mention real guns or homemade spray guns, you can't even withstand a high-pressure air gun. This is what a bodyguard does. After all, no matter how good your kung fu is, you are still afraid of a kitchen knife.

As his net worth increases, Zhang Yuan has to consider the possibility of such an accident.

He performed high-kick Wing Chun and filmed the moves more than a dozen times.

"Director Ye, it's almost time." Zhang Yuan stopped and said to Ye Weixing.

"Okay, this group will finish work early."

Ikeuchi Hiroyuki, who was already sweating profusely, breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, I got off work early, otherwise I would be exhausted.

Shooting a fight scene with Zhang Yuan is like a 1.6T engine racing against a 5.0V8 engine at high speed.

Hiroyuki Ikeuchi's engine was running at 6000 rpm and was almost reaching red temperature, but Zhang Yuan was still cruising at 2000 rpm.

It made him very tired.

I started panting as soon as I sat down and didn't even dare to drink water immediately.

"Chinese people all have this physical fitness."

"We managed to hold out here for eight years. It was not easy," the Japanese soldier pondered.

As for why I finished work early today.

Because today is the last day of 08.

That’s New Year’s Eve!
Zhang Yuan didn't have a date, but was busy with work.

He can't appear on CCTV's Spring Festival Gala, but he can still appear on local TV stations.

Just for today's New Year's Eve Gala, more than a dozen local TV stations sent him notices.

The highest bid was 4 million for a 100-minute song, after tax.

There is no way. After "Painted Skin" earned more than 3 million yuan at the box office, he has become the most popular young movie star at this stage, and his net worth has of course increased.

But it's times like this, the more you have to take care of your reputation.

So he didn't take those high-paying jobs, but instead chose to take jobs based on personal connections.

I took on evening party work for both Shanghai TV and Mango TV.

First go to Shanghai for the show, then go directly to Pudong Airport to take a plane, land two hours later, and then go to Mango TV to attend the New Year's Eve show.

I have to run to two places in one night.

I have a good relationship with these two families and I have to maintain it.

It only costs tens of thousands of yuan, which is better than nothing.

Local TV stations attach great importance to New Year’s Eve Gala.

Because local TV stations are holding Spring Festival Galas everywhere, they have diverted a lot of ratings from CCTV's Spring Festival Gala, especially in the southern region.

So CCTV took the opportunity to make a move and asked the higher authorities to issue regulations.

The reason given was "Zhao Benshan".

Because Uncle Benshan will rehearse his programs for the Spring Festival Gala on local TV stations every year to observe the audience reaction and polish the work based on the on-site effects.

With the development of the Internet, people began to upload secretly taken photos.

CCTV used this excuse to suppress a number of local TV stations.

In addition, as the Spring Festival Galas in various places are becoming more and more popular, local TV stations are competing for talent, resulting in higher and higher prices for celebrities.

But the money CCTV gave was very little, and in the end all the money was taken away from him.

So he established the rules.

Later, local TV stations’ Spring Festival Galas would be staggered with CCTV’s and no longer aired on the same day.

Celebrities are also happy about this as they can perform more and make more money.

But it has invisibly weakened the Spring Festival Gala on local TV stations.

As a result, the New Year's Eve party has become more and more important.

I hurried to the Shanghai Studio, changed my clothes, and put on my earphones for rehearsal.

Coordinate stage movements with dancers.

After practicing it twice it went very smoothly.

The evening show director at Shanghai TV also said to his colleagues, look at him, he can do anything, otherwise how come he is a big star.

Soon after, the host opened the show and then he took the stage.

I sang "Blue and White Porcelain".

Anyway, he doesn't have to pay copyright fees for singing this song, so Jay Chou has nothing to do with him.

Not only could he not get it, Zhang Yuan had to ask him for money every year.

Although there are not many on weekdays, there are still some singing attributes that can be praised.

Add in the live reverb and background music, and this job isn't difficult for him.

After singing, he took off his performance clothes while greeting the leaders of the station.

Without even having time to remove her makeup, she hurried downstairs, jumped into a business car and rushed to catch the plane.

This rhythm made Huang Julong, who was following closely, a little uncomfortable.

Liu Xiaoqing wasn’t so busy back then.

When was the celebration of milk?

Besides, Liu Xiaoqing doesn't do business, so there is no need to force herself to be so busy.

Even until he got on the plane, Brother Long was still a little confused.

"Why, you're not used to it?"

Zhang Yuan also brought a makeup artist with him, who removed his makeup and reapplied it on the plane.

The requirements on both sides are different.

The Shanghai side is a recording studio, while the Mango Channel side is open-air, so the costumes and makeup had to be changed.

"Kind of."

"It'll be fine in a while."

"Hey!"

Brother Long is also a straightforward person. He simply responded and turned away.

Zhang Yuan glanced at him out of the corner of his eye and found that he was very dedicated and did not let his guard down even on the plane.

Before Qingnai was "put in jail", she actually had a lot of things going on and involved in lawsuits.

She has encountered the same treatment as Zhang Yuan many times, that is, someone wants to kidnap her.

It was Brother Long who stopped them, and the six or seven big men couldn't get close to them.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yuan suddenly became gossipy.

"Hey, since you've been following Teacher Liu Xiaoqing for several years, have you ever seen her dating Jiang Wen?"

I'll keep some gossip in my heart so that when Jiang Wen nags me and Xu Qing again, I'll have something to say and fight back.

Brother Long shook his head: "When I went there, they had already separated."

"Besides, Sister Liu has been very kind to me. It is not convenient for me to discuss her private affairs."

"Oh... okay." Zhang Yuan didn't ask any more questions.

Come to think of it, Liu Xiaoqing and Jiang Wen started living together in 89. When they were filming "Sunny Days", it was Qingnai who invested the start-up capital in Jiang Wen.

Similar to the current discussion between Li Xiang and Wang Yue.

It’s just that Li Xiang and Qingnai are both grown women, but Wang Yuelun and Jiang Wen are far from that.

It was around 00 when Brother Long went to live with Grandma Qing. At that time, Jiang Wen had already married a French woman, and the two were separated.

However, after Qing Nai went to jail in 02, it was still Jiang Wen who begged and pleaded with everyone, looked for people everywhere, and spent money to get her released on bail.

Obviously he still has her in his heart...

At that time, Liu Xiaoqing's whole family was imprisoned. When she came out, none of her friends in the circle who had surrounded her paid any attention to her.

The three of them invited her to dinner to welcome her.

In addition to Jiang Wen, there are also Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao.

This is when human nature comes into play.

Zhang Yuan guessed that Brother Long must know something.

However, Zhang Yuan was quite satisfied with his tight-lipped attitude.

This is called professional ethics!

If he could keep his former employer's secrets, he could keep mine, too.

Unlike Lin Chiling, whose security guards are in cahoots with foreign countries.

Two hours later, the flight landed in Shenzhen.

Zhang Yuan did not stop for a moment and took a car to the backstage of Mango TV's New Year's Eve Gala.

However, after arriving at the place, Zhang Yuan found that the preparation site, which should have been well organized, was now in a mess... (End of this chapter)
