Chapter 54: Birthday
When I came to the practice room, I didn't wait for Xu Jing to enter, but I heard a burst of 'crackling' sounds from inside.
After Xu Jing opened the door and entered, he saw Xu Jinjiang holding a wooden sword in both hands, and under the guidance of Qin Tian, he was practicing with Zhou Xiaoxun who was holding a double knife.
The wooden sword in Xu Jinjiang's hand was long, thin and narrow, with a slight arc, which was the shape of the Japanese samurai sword.
The 'three-dimensional mobile device' double sword against the Japanese benzene katana is also the ultimate battle designed by Xu Jing.
At first, Xu Jing didn't think about other weapons, such as traditional Chinese knives and swords, but he finally gave up, because unlike the surreal weapons of 'three-dimensional mobile devices', these traditional weapons can add martial arts flavor or a sense of history when used in ancient times, but when placed in a modern urban background, it looks out of place, and it will inevitably destroy the ultra-modern atmosphere of the film.
However, the Japanese Benz Katana does not feel this way, because only the Japanese Benz Katana is a cold weapon that has always been able to spread in the real world.
The ultimate battle in the original version is the original gunfight full of violent aesthetics between the super killer girl and the black gang boys, which can make people shine and have an amazing feeling, but the ultimate battle between the big villain and the villain in the back seems a little mediocre. The dagger battle between the superkiller girl and the villain is empty-handed, not to mention that it is not enjoyable to watch, and there is even a farcical plot in the middle of the superkill woman biting the villain with her teeth, which inevitably makes the film pattern drop too much.
The 'three-dimensional mobile device' designed by Xu Jing to fight against the Japanese benzene katana can make up for this to a large extent.
Needless to say, even in the "Attack on Titan" decades later, its appearance has fascinated countless people, it is not only a cold weapon, but also like a 'superhero suit' in the future world, and the superhero combination of Super Killer Girl is simply a perfect match.
The Japanese katana, the most common oriental cold weapon in Hollywood movies in the original time and space, naturally does not need to prove its ornamentality, such as the "Blade" series, "007", "Special Forces", etc., and the most representative "Kill Bill" series, there are a large number of katanas. Speaking of which, the current 80s is also the period when the 'ninja trend' of Nichiban is on the rise.
"Director, you're here. Seeing Xu Jing come in, after completing a set of routines, Xu Jinjiang stopped and said.
"Teacher Xu, come to practice early in the morning, thank you for your hard work. Xu Jing said.
"It should be, it should be, hehe. Xu Jinjiang smiled shyly.
"That's right, something happened to an actor today, so the shooting plan has been adjusted a bit, and you have to shoot your drama part first. Xu Jing said.
"No problem, director, I've read the script in the past few days, and I've basically memorized the lines, so I can shoot whenever I want. Xu Jinjiang is still that restrained.
"Well, maybe it will save a lot of effort. Xu Jing didn't expect Xu Jinjiang to be able to do so much in such a short period of time, and he didn't think he would work hard at home.
"What about me?" At this time, Zhou Xiaoxun on the side interjected.
"Of course, you're going back to class. ”
“。。。。 ”
Xu Jinjiang's literary drama is not too difficult, and he has indeed spent a lot of effort to study the script in the past few days, and the filming has been quite smooth, not only completing today's shooting task, but even filming one more scene, so that Xu Jing has a sense of admiration for Xu Jinjiang, and he is worthy of being nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actor in the original time and space with his third-level color and love films, and he is dedicated enough to filming and worthy of the word 'actor'.
Because before going out earlier, Sun Jiahui had told her to go home for dinner in the evening, so Xu Jing did not let the crew continue to work overtime this night, but called it off early.
"Damai, are you back?" As soon as Xu Jing got home and parked the car in the evening, he saw Zhou Xiaoxun come out and shouted.
"Why are you so enthusiastic?" Xu Jing said a little strangely, when he drove her to class in the morning, he still looked like 'I will break off my friendship with you for at least three days', and it was only half a day before she was enthusiastic enough to go out to greet her?
"Come on, have you forgotten what day it is?" Zhou Xiaoxun grabbed his arm and walked inside, saying as he spoke.
"Today?" Xu Jing followed Zhou Xiaoxun upstairs in confusion.
"Brother. When the two of them went upstairs to the restaurant, they saw Lin Qingqing placing dishes and chopsticks, and when they saw them, they whispered.
"Hey, Xiao Jing is back, it's your birthday, come here, sit down here, your aunt will cook the dishes soon." Lin Jianguo, who was on the side, took out a bottle of red wine and said.
"Xiao Jing, I know you don't like to be lively, so let's spend it at home today. Sun Jiahui also walked over with an apron and a plate of dishes, and said.
It turned out that this day was Xu Jing's birthday. In his previous life, he didn't even know when his birthday was, and he had always been alone, so where did he have a birthday? Even the original Xu Jing in this time and space just added an extra egg to his birthday every year, and there was nothing special about it. So Xu Jing has never thought about such a thing, and when a few people talked about his birthday, he understood.
"Hmm. Looking at the few people who were busy coming and going, Xu Jing felt an indescribable emotion in his heart, and wanted to say something, but he said that he didn't know what to say, so he had to respond a little at a loss.
There were no full seats at dinner, no wine pools and meat forests, just a sip of red wine in the plain but warm laughter.
After the meal, Zhou Xiaoxun took Xu Jing and his family to the lounge, and then couldn't wait to take out a box of cakes from the refrigerator, open it and light eighteen small candles.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute. Xu Jing, who had never had a birthday, looked a little unnatural, and when he saw the candles lit, he thought about quickly blowing out the cake to save embarrassment, but Zhou Xiaoxun stopped him again.
I saw Zhou Xiaoxun walk to the piano in a corner of the hall and sit down, take out a page of piano scores and place it, and then clumsily press it on the keys.
"Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
。。。。。。 ”
In a burst of melody that did not match the downward adjustment, Zhou Xiaoxun sang the birthday song, making the few people next to him so happy that they couldn't straighten their waists. After playing the tune, Zhou Xiaoxun turned around and looked at the few people who were happy, scratched his little face, and was a little helpless, although he couldn't listen to this birthday song anymore, but he was very attentive!
Under the urging of Zhou Xiaoxun, Xu Jing made a wish with a twist, and then ate the cake.
"By the way, Damai, this is a gift for you! Open it and take a look!" Zhou Xiaoxun took out a small packaged gift box as if offering a treasure, and said.
Xu Jing glanced at Zhou Xiaoxun with a shy smile, unpacked it, revealing a silver men's watch.
"Do you like it?" Zhou Xiaoxun took it, opened the watch chain, grabbed Xu Jing's left hand, and said, "I'll bring it to you." ”
"yes, I like it. Xu Jing turned his wrist, the watch flashed in the soft light, although it was not a famous brand, but it was also very beautiful, thinking that Zhou Xiaoxun's pocket money in the past few months was also pinched and calculated, and he was a little moved at the moment.
"Brother, this is for you. With Zhou Xiaoxun in front of the gift, Lin Jianguo and his wife naturally will not be left behind, the two gave a pen and a set of hardcover painting utensils respectively, and finally, Lin Qingqing also took out a small gift box.
Xu Jing took it and opened it to take a look, but it was a pair of boxing gloves for practicing boxing. The boxing gloves are finely made, the wiring is neat and even, but there are no tags or logos, so she should have spent a lot of effort sewing them in the store run by Sun Jiahui.
"Won't this be sewn with your socks again?" Xu Jing suddenly remembered some memories of this body when he was a child, when he was forced by Yang Laosan to practice boxing all day long, and he endured hardships, Lin Qingqing In order to win over Xu Jing to stand out for her and carry the black pot, he used his stinky socks to put on several layers of treasures for Xu Jing as boxing gloves, and now that he thinks about it, it is somewhat funny, so he can't help but quip.
"Brother!" Maybe it was because he drank some red wine, as soon as Xu Jing mentioned this, Lin Qingqing's cheeks were flushed, and he was quite embarrassed, and his hands on his knees twisted each other, and he lowered his eyebrows and said angrily.
Xu Jing smiled, this Lin Qingqing has always cut her hair short when she was a child, and she has not caused trouble, no different from a little boy, but she doesn't want to change into a standard beauty now, and she is very quiet.
I saw that under the yellowing light, Lin Qingqing's dignified and Zhou Zheng's face was clearly defined, her delicate facial features had a hint of handsomeness, and a touch of red on her cheeks made her more pretty. In a trance, Xu Jing seemed to see the superstar Zhang Ziyi in the original time and space, no, not completely, and a little like Zhang Baizhi, who had just risen and suddenly fell.
"Qingqing, do you want to act?" pinched the fist gloves in his hand, as if thinking of something, Xu Jing's eyes suddenly lit up, and said.
