Chapter 256: East Evil Cheng Xiaodong

On the first day that Zhou Bai came to the crew, he basically spent it in a meeting, and the questions he said were all about the script, lines, and shooting, but the training that Lao Mouzi said was arranged to be concentrated on the second day.

"Hero" is a martial arts blockbuster, the martial arts scene is definitely the top priority of the movie, and it occupies a lot of space in the movie, among which Li Lianjie is a well-deserved protagonist, and his successive duels with several masters are also the most exciting scenes in the movie.

Lao Mouzi is very ambitious and under great pressure, so he invited Cheng Xiaodong, a famous director and martial arts instructor in Xiangjiang, to serve as the martial arts instructor of "Hero", just to shoot these scenes magnificently and perfectly.

Cheng Xiaodong is not an ordinary person, if you want to rank Xiangjiang's action director, he must be in the top three, he and Yuan Heping and Hong Jingbao can be called Xiangjiang's three major martial arts fingers, these three have different styles, but they are all very accomplished, in the field of action movies, it can be said that the opponent will meet the good talent, and each will play his own piece of the sky.

In terms of style, Yuan Heping pays attention to the dismantling of moves, and he can design different scenes for actors and film styles, which not only reflects the hard bridge and hard horse, but also makes the action more ornamental.

This is so powerful that he is called "the world's first martial artist", because his masterpieces "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", "The Matrix" and other movies are extremely good in action scenes, thus achieving his internationally renowned status.

Hong Jingbao is known as the most agile fat man in China, like juggling is not limited to this, on this basis, he has established a sharp, fast and powerful fighting style, which can also be tricky and bright, and can be said to be an all-round existence in the field of action guidance.

Among them, the most prominent are the movies with a strong taste of modern fighting, especially excellent, "The Loser", "Wong Fei Hung: The Lion of the Western Regions", and "Ip Man" can all see its sharp style, and the moves are very murderous, which is especially obvious in the films he directed in the later period.

Cheng Xiaodong is known as the East Evil, good at using Weiya to fly away, pay attention to style, fight very beautifully, like dancing, sometimes even a little "floating", pay attention to imagination, from the beginning of "Famous Sword" to the peak of "Oriental Undefeated", "New Dragon Gate Inn", almost all are amazing, he became famous very early, and everyone in Xiangjiang can be said to know everyone.

His starting point is very high, but unfortunately he was surpassed by the eighth master later, and his achievements are slightly inferior, this can't be helped, he has not broken through to the international field, and his influence is still limited to Chinese movies, but his skills are also deep enough, this time to serve as the martial arts instructor of "Hero", it can be said that they complement each other.

Cheng Xiaodong looks upright, exuding a kind of majesty on his body, when Zhou Bai saw him, he had short hair, looked capable, and was staying in the rehearsal room with a few apprentices.

"Hello Uncle Dong, I'm Zhou Bai, please give me a lot of advice. Zhou Bai shook hands with him and said hello.

"Hello, you're welcome, your reputation is not small, I've heard a lot of people tell me about you, Chen Jiashang and Ah Guan have mentioned it to me. Cheng Xiaodong said with a smile.

"The next period of time will make Uncle Dong worry a lot, I haven't filmed action scenes yet, I hope I can learn more things in training during this time, and I won't be in a hurry when filming starts. Zhou Bai said with a smile.

When Zhang Ziyi filmed "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", she also trained in the crew two months in advance, basically learning movements, and she trained so much at that time that she could squeeze out the last trace of energy every day.

Cheng Xiaodong is an old man, he was also born in Liyuan, and he also has real kung fu, he has studied Northern Kung Fu for 7 years, his father is the famous film director Cheng Gang, and his representative works include "Little Angel on the Road", "Fourteen Heroines", etc., at a glance at Zhou Bai's figure, it can be seen that Zhou Bai has martial arts skills.

"You've learned kung fu, right, I look at your body and walking posture, you should have studied kung fu for many years. Cheng Xiaodong asked with curiosity.

"Uncle Dong saw it, I have been practicing with my grandfather since I was a child, and I haven't broken it until now, but I learned the Southern School boxing method. Zhou Bai said.

"Which boxing technique are you?" asked Cheng Xiaodong.

"I learned Wing Chun, which is in the vein of Chen Rumian. Zhou Bai replied.

"Okay, wait a minute, talk to me?" Cheng Xiaodong's eyes lit up, the name of Wing Chun can be said to be thunderous in Xiangjiang, and he couldn't help but be happy to see the hunt for a while.

"Uncle Dong also knows Wing Chun?" Zhou Bai asked in surprise.

"We do the action guidance, and we have to know some kung fu of any school, although we can't say how to do it, but there is no problem with using it to pass. Cheng Xiaodong said with a smile.

This is not a lie, as an action guide, many schools of kung fu will be involved, although Cheng Xiaodong learned the hard bridge and hard horse of the northern school of kung fu, but it does not mean that he does not understand the southern school boxing method, but he is not so in-depth study and gets the secret method, just like Wing Chun, the "black hands" and "black feet" of double training he knows.

"Okay, no problem, I haven't sparred with anyone for a long time, martial arts are used to strengthen the body, I usually play wooden stakes, and I really rarely learn from others. Zhou Bai did not refuse, but agreed.

The competition mentioned here is naturally not a fierce fight, but a mutual confirmation of martial arts learning.

"Master, why don't you wait a minute, let me practice with Mr. Chow first, I finally met someone who practices Wing Chun, I don't know if it's as good as the one over in Xiangjiang." Cheng Xiaodong's apprentice stepped in and also wanted to learn from Zhou Bai.

"Go and go, Zhou Bai's vein is not simple, Chen Rumian's master is 'looking for Qian Hua' Chen Huashun, Chen Huashun's master is Foshan 'Mr. Zan', it can be said that Wing Chun is authentic, don't be smiling and generous. Cheng Xiaodong scolded with a smile, and he cherished the inheritance of Wing Chun.

There is a strong martial arts atmosphere in Xiangjiang, Cheng Xiaodong was born in Liyuan, has learned the Northern School of kung fu, and has a family history, so many years in Xiangjiang, how can he not know the doorway here, there are many people who practice Wing Chun, but the true transmission is nothing more than the vein passed down by Chen Huashun.

"Master, you look down on people too much, we have also practiced since childhood, there is no problem with Mr. Zhou, it's not a fight in the ring, it's just a mutual competition, there's no danger, master, you just let us play, I've practiced too much with Daniel, it's no longer interesting." Cheng Xiaodong's little apprentice said.

He looks like he is only twenty-five or sixteen years old, with a body of tendons and flesh, a tall figure, and his own momentum, and the Daniel he is talking about is actually Donnie Yen, the apprentice of the eighth master.

"This, Zhou Bai, you see ......" Cheng Xiaodong was embarrassed, because if this was calculated seriously, it would not be in line with the rules.

"It's okay, just have fun, it's okay if I've dealt with my senior brother. Zhou Bai said with a smile, his face calm.
