Chapter 116: Brothers' Talk

The two of them walked all the way to the lawn of the hospital, Shang Xiaolong was still weak and couldn't walk for a long time, they found a bench to sit down, and Shang Xiaolong said to Li Du: "Senior brother, I watched your game, in fact, you performed very well. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Li Du was already in a much better mood at this time, he smiled bitterly and said, "What's good!" Senior brother, you don't know, in the face of Spurs, I can't help at all! ”

Shang Xiaolong smiled, pointed at Li Du, and said, "You kid, you just have too much to lose." Think about it, in fact, with the Lakers' current lineup, if there is no you, let alone playing the Spurs, the Suns won't be able to pass that level! This is also the reason why after you lose, all the media and reporters don't say that you are not, and Kobe Bryant is closer and more trusting to you! You are a blind eye and you can't see Tarzan! ”

"Originally, I wanted to comfort you, but now it seems that I don't need it!" Shang Xiaolong smiled and said, "I see you, let's hurry up and marry Preti!" ”

Li Du smiled bitterly: "Senior brother, don't make trouble!" I'm having a headache about this! ”

"What? You don't want to marry Pritty? Got a crush on other girls? Shang Xiaolong looked at Li Du in surprise, and then patted Li Du as if it was fine, "It's okay, who do you like?" Bring the senior brother to check for you first, don't let the old man know about this, otherwise you will be finished! ”

"Nope!" Li Du snorted and glanced at Shang Xiaolong: "I won't fall in love with a girl other than Preti!" ”

Sighing, Li Du said with some embarrassment: "Senior brother, I won't tell you, in fact, I have discussed with Pretti a long time ago, we do want to take advantage of the offseason to go to India, but instead of getting married, we want to get engaged first!" As long as Preti's parents agree, we will find an opportunity for her parents to meet with Master and Mrs. and then set a time. Master and Master want me to get married now...... I always felt that it was too rushed! ”

After Shang Xiaolong listened, he thought about it for a while and said, "That's it, father's side, I'll help you out." You and Preti came according to your plan, and what you said made sense, and the marriage should not be careless. ”

"Thank you, brother!" Li Du looked at the time, they had been out for a long time, and asked Shang Xiaolong, "Senior brother, should we go back?" You haven't recovered yet, after all. ”

Shang Xiaolong pressed Li Du on the chair and said, "Xiao Du, I understand my physical condition, in a few years, my kung fu can be restored to before the injury, and by the time I am in my thirties, I may have the opportunity to enter Huajin." But so what? Do you think I can still mix in the national art world! ”

"Senior Brother......

Li Du was about to say something, but Shang Xiaolong raised his hand to interrupt him, "Senior brother, listen to me!" Even after I recover, I can only inherit the martial arts hall, and I can't earn fame for our lineage anymore. Although you are not in the national arts world, basketball has made you more well-known, and your reputation will be greater than that of many Grandmasters! You have to take advantage of this, even if you make a movie in the future! ”

"Making a movie?" Li Du was stunned, the national art only kills the enemy, not performs, it is impossible for Shang Xiaolong not to know! Many big boxers have taboos for their apprentices, and making movies is one of them, because in ancient times, the status of the drama was far from being comparable to that of the boxing masters. Even now, there are many people who carry on some old traditions. Playing basketball or making movies like Li Du is disdainful of doing it in the eyes of the older generation!

Shang Xiaolong nodded seriously and said, "That's right! You can go for a movie! In fact, about the development of national arts, there have been countless seniors discussed a long time ago, with the continuous development of the times, national arts has become less and less known, I have discussed with my father and some other seniors for a long time, I think you can try it, and gradually break some traditions. ”

As soon as Shang Xiaolong said this, Li Du understood everything. His current identity is an NBA professional player, and he will not develop in the national arts circle in the future, and the current Li Du is no longer a person in the national arts world in the eyes of many people in the national arts world, but can only be regarded as having practiced Xingyi Quan and Baguazhang. Therefore, if Li Du does something to break the tradition, others will not embarrass him or their line.

If you can start with Li Du and gradually break some unnecessary traditions, that's the best, if it doesn't work, it doesn't matter, anyway, Li Du is no longer a person in the national art world, no one cares if he goes to play basketball or make movies, or even to be a killer.

After understanding this, Li Du solemnly said to Shang Xiaolong: "Senior brother, don't worry! I will definitely try to do my best in these things! ”

Shang Xiaolong patted Li Du helplessly and solemnly, sighed slowly, and said with a somewhat gloomy expression: "Senior brother, I'm tired, I'll just go back by myself." You go to the set and see Pritt, and if you can help, you know! ”

Li Du was not verbose, stood up and hugged his fist fiercely at his senior brother, "Senior brother, then, I'll go!" ”

After saying that, Li Du strode away from David Geffen Hospital and drove straight to Hollywood.

"Wrist Cutter's Paradise" starring Pratty is a small-to-medium budget production film with an investment of only $10 million.

The story is set in a bizarre post-mortem time and place, where all those who have committed suicide will be gathered. In this extradimensional world, everything seems to be no different from the real world, except that everyone has magical powers. After the hero Zia committed suicide by cutting his wrists for love, he thought that he could end up with it, but he accidentally fell into the paradise of this suicide. On the way, Zia met passers-by who committed suicide for various reasons, and then walked with two other suicide victims and embarked on a magical journey together.

In this film, Pretty plays one of two suicide victims who embark on a journey with Zia. Li Du once heard Pretti talk about the movie script, and also thought that although the investment in this movie is small, the story is very good. And there is another reason why Pretti wants to participate in this movie, that is, implicitly promoting some religious theories.

In all religions, suicide is a mortal sin! And in real life, no matter what country it is, thousands of people end up committing suicide every year for various reasons! Pletty hopes that after watching this movie, when they want to commit suicide, they will hesitate and think about it more, and maybe they will give up that terrible thought!

I have to say that Preti is not a believer in any religion, but she has been deeply influenced by Hinduism since she was a child, and she has a sense of compassion for many times, which is the embodiment of kindness and the most shining part of human nature.

Of course, Li Du agrees with and supports this kind of feeling, and there are many parts of Chinese culture that shine with the brilliance of human nature, and that part of the culture is called "universal values", which means that all people in the world, no matter which country, which nation, which religion, which culture agree with and vigorously advocate values.

Li Du and Pretti have completely different cultural backgrounds, and they can come together and be sure that the other person is the right person in their lives, largely because they both share "universal values".
