new kung fu king

Chapter 721 778 Premiere of "Ip Man 2" ([-])
778
Since the idea of ​​filming "Ip Man 2" was born, Wang Xiaohu has been weighing the pros and cons. After all, the "Sino-British Joint Declaration" has not yet been released, and there must be many restrictions if he wants to shoot according to the script of his previous life.

Although the British will not use the government's iron cavalry to completely block it like the mainland, but if the original plot is copied without any modification, Concorde International will inevitably be affected.

Therefore, on the basis of ensuring the original classics, he modified the first 10 minutes of the literary play, such as adding "dock embargo", "massive unemployment in Hong Kong", "corresponding measures taken by the British" and so on.

Of course, these scenes are all fleeting, but they can well show the helplessness of the Hong Kong people and the British Hong Kong government in that environment.

No one pleases anyone on both sides, and no one discredits, I directly use the real history to process and polish, let those who talk nonsense go to hell!
It seems a bit procrastinating, but it actually plays an important role.

Just when the audience was getting impatient, the plot on the screen suddenly accelerated!
One day, Huang Liang met a hooligan A Ji who claimed to be a disciple of Hong Quan on the street and tore up Wing Chun leaflets, and challenged him in a fit of anger!
Huang Liang, who had learned kung fu for a while, was really powerful in his shots. Using Wing Chun's close-fitting bunt, he knocked Aji to the ground, and shouted: "I won't accept it."

It's a pity that this single-handed spirit was not established in the martial arts world at the time. Hongquan disciples swarmed up, grabbed Huang Liang into the fish stall, and sent people to the rooftop to report the letter, asking Ye Wen to bring money to redeem him.

Seeing this, the audience was refreshed, knowing that a good show was about to be staged.

Sure enough, when the film played to 25 minutes, the first climax came: Ip Man came to the tube fish stall alone, and the music played quietly at the same time. The audience didn't realize that their concentration, breathing, and heartbeat had been affected by the music. He clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, his heart beat faster, he held his breath, and stared at the big screen without blinking.

"Hit him!"

As Lu Liangwei, who played the role of Aji, yelled, Hong Quan's apprentices rushed forward. Ye Wen protected Huang Liang, and easily resolved the danger with three punches and two kicks. Aji, who was staggered by Ye Wen, was angry and shouted again Throat "cut him!"

In an instant, those apprentices of Hong Quan took out a pair of gleaming machetes, and some even swung the scale hooks. The camera slowed down deliberately at this time, and the audience saw the sharp scale hooks and the sharpened machetes.

Coupled with the tense background music, the hearts of the audience suddenly rose to their throats, darling, there are dozens of people, and they are holding machetes, scale hooks, steel pipes and so on. Break out.

Worried expressions hung directly on the faces of the audience, some of them even took a deep breath, and then held it, worrying about Ip Man's master and apprentice in their hearts.

But Ye Man on the screen was not in a hurry at all. Facing the attacking Hong Quan disciples, he used Wing Chun to fight quickly, and then he heard a burst of bang bang bang punches, and several people fell down. Under the attack, he was able to deal with it with ease, and his moves were straightforward. He suppressed the enemy with one move, but kept his hands everywhere, which made the audience enjoy watching.

And the audience also found that this fighting scene is very distinctive, and it is fundamentally different from the popular kung fu movies and action movies nowadays.

Jackie Chan and the others played desperately and heartbeats, while Wang Xiaohu paid more attention to actual combat. Whether it was fighting with bare hands or one person against multiple people, it was all carried out according to the mode of street fighting. Those wielding machetes were closer to real life. Confused boys.

"It's so cool! Ip Man looks so pretty with a machete!"

"Is this a machete? Why does it feel more powerful than a nunchaku!"

"If Ye Wen used the blade, those guys would have died a hundred times already!"

"The Ba Zhan Dao can be used in this way, and I will learn it later!"

"Don't count on it, unless your character is upright, you can only learn the Eight Cutting Swords after passing the assessment. You forgot that Liang Ting from the Wing Chun School a while ago."

The voices of the audience kept coming. When Ip Man performed the unique skill of Wing Chun's eight swords, he beat the Hongquan disciples in the fish stall to the side, immediately caught a disciple, and slowly exited the fish stall.

Seeing this, the audience immediately applauded enthusiastically, not for anything else, but because Wang Xiaohu played Ba Zhandao well in the movie, not to mention being dazzled, but also revealing the style of a master.

"Xiaohu, the design of this scene is not bad. I think more people will sign up to learn Wing Chun tomorrow!" Bruce Lee said in a low voice.

Wang Xiaohu shrugged and said, "I won't teach it easily."

Bosses, directors, and actors from other Hong Kong film companies were also invited to attend the premiere. Apart from admiring the wonderful martial arts movements designed by Wang Xiaohu, they admired Wang Xiaohu for his willingness to spend money.

Not to mention anything else, there are countless props such as wooden barrels, pallets, flags, signboards, fishhooks, fish knives, bamboo poles, as well as translucent sky curtains, peeling stone pillars, wooden carts for transporting goods, and posters on the walls. Coupled with the reflections of many puddles, together with the sweatshirts, aprons, and water boots of the fish market workers, under the dim yellow and warm tones, it fully shows the quality and level of life in those days.

"There is no difference from the real scene!" Tsui Hark sighed: "Although Zhang Shuping has a solid foundation in art, but without Wang Xiaohu spending so much money, it is impossible to create such a real scene. Details, details are really crucial!"

Then Tsui Hark turned his head and said to the flattered Zhang Shuping: "Ping, cooperate with me in the future."

Zhang Shuping scratched his head and said, "Let's talk about this."

Tsui Hark rolled his eyes, okay, this kid is starting to show off.

In fact, it’s right to think about it. Anyone who has worked with Wang Xiaohu has now become a leader in the industry. Not to mention Sammo Hung and Jackie Chan, let’s just say Zhang Shuping. The deepening of his career has greatly broadened Zhang Shuping's horizons and thinking, and he jumped to the top of the art industry, and his net worth doubled.

What is certain is that Zhang Shuping's future will be smooth in the future, and more directors will invite him to join in the filming.

Tsui Hark thought about cooperating with Wang Xiaohu sometime, to shoot a movie that surpasses his level and style.

The popular "fish stall rescuer" finally aroused the excitement of the audience, and the following story directly led to another supporting role in the film: Hong Zhennan.

"Who approved you to teach boxing? Do you understand the rules?"

Lao Hong's identity is more like the underworld in those days. There is no doubt about this. After being manipulated by the makeup artist, Sammo Hung pointed at Wang Xiaohu with a machete. The aura of the gangster made many viewers gasp.

After Hong Zhennan appeared on the stage, he naturally switched the camera to the next dramatic conflict. If Ip Man wanted to establish a martial arts gym in Hong Kong, he had to accept the challenges of the major martial arts schools within a short time!
At this time, the smart audience immediately thought of the selling point of the trailer and promotion: Wing Chun Fighting Hongquan.

I even thought of the first fighting competition that is currently in full swing. Wang Xiaohu's desire to watch was aroused, and everyone stared at the big screen eagerly, looking forward to more refreshing and exciting fighting scenes.

Unexpectedly, when the camera turned, Ip Man, Jin Shanxun, and Huang Liang were caught by the fat cat police and sent to prison, which was another pile of life fragments.

"Grandma, isn't this torturing people!" Some viewers said depressedly.

"Who says it's not? The climax is imminent, but it stops abruptly. I'm seriously upset!"

Depressed is depressed, and unhappy is unhappy. Everyone waits patiently for the development of the plot. After all, "Ip Man" back then followed this kind of pressure again and again. When you are pressed, your anger soars. When you can't bear it, Brother Hu will Explosive, let you cool mess.

The seemingly scattered life fragments implicitly and directly begin to tell the other side of Hong Kong, such as the embarrassing position of the Chinese police in the police station, such as the role of Hong Kong as a transit point for the Korean battlefield: many American soldiers and the United Nations motley crew choose Here as a resting place.

A group of soldiers who are supposed to supervise the embargo at the pier, but actually eat, drink and have fun here, started to play new tricks. They bought a group of British policemen and asked the British policemen to prepare entertainment projects for black market boxing.

Since it is black boxing for entertainment, it must have a lot of money. Huang Liang, who caused a lot of trouble for his master, saw that his master was struggling and his apprentices couldn't pay the tuition fees, so he secretly signed up for black boxing, hoping to use his knowledge to make money. Defeat the foreigners with your kung fu, and earn some extra money to honor the master.

In such an environment, Huang Liang's actual combat ability became stronger and stronger, and he distributed the money he won to his brothers, pretending to be teaching fees and handing it over to Ye Wen.

But Ye Wen didn't know about this, and participated in the challenges of the major martial arts schools as scheduled.

Seeing this movie, not only the audience became interested, but even the wealthy people such as Li Ka-shing in the VIP room widened their eyes.

Now they know that they were wrong, that they went to grandma's house. They thought that Wang Xiaohu would make a fuss about the Sino-British conflict, and they wanted to take advantage of Wang Xiaohu's nap time to intervene in the film and television industry to make a fortune.

"Hey, Wang Xiaohu is simply a monkey spirit. He actually came up with such a method, which not only transferred the conflict to the Yankees, but also indirectly publicized the helplessness of the British Hong Kong government!" Li Ka-shing slapped his thigh, in addition to admiration I can't say anything.

"Who said it wasn't!" Huo Yingdong also sighed. The three people in the room all became rich at that time, but because of the United Nations embargo, Hong Kong's economic income suddenly shrunk, and the British were unhappy, and in desperation opened their eyes. Turn a blind eye and let Huo Yingdong, Bao Yugang and others smuggle.

"Wang Xiaohu's move is a stroke of genius. No wonder he is so swearing in the face of public opinion pressure. I guess he must have passed his anger on the Hong Kong Governor's side early, otherwise why the British didn't deal with him!" Bao Yugang realized later.

"Fortunately, people from the Hong family are asking for directions, otherwise we will suffer a loss." Li Ka-shing breathed a sigh of relief: "Even Hong Kong's underground order is controlled by Wang Xiaohu. From now on, this guy will take the seat of Hong Kong king. It seems that we have to follow up more." He fawns."

Bao Yugang rolled his eyes, and suddenly said: "Ah Cheng, have you heard that the Hong Kong British government plans to build Kowloon Plaza near New Century Studios, I think you should not participate in the bidding."

"why?"

"I heard that several construction companies under Shen Zhong also participated in the bidding. Think about it, now that the underground forces have just reshuffled, can Shen Zhong fly with the ducks on his lips? He must take it down to appease the lower courts, Just give up!"

Li Ka-shing was stunned for a long time, and finally sighed helplessly: "Forget it, let's see if there are other new projects in other places."
