Chapter 345: Formal Guidance for the First Generation Grandmaster

After getting Jimmy Butler, the perfect starting lineup for the Warriors in Leedu's mind was finally put together. Li Du, Yao Ming, Curry, Klay Thompson, plus Jimmy Butler, five people are enough to sweep any team in the NBA, including the Heat after the mid-to-long-range shooting is stable!

And this season the NBA is destined to be suspended for a long time, for a team like the Warriors, who is young and has experienced a large number of player changes, it just gives them enough time to train and run-in. Even though Klay and Jimmy are still rookies, they can quickly adapt to the NBA and start showing their talents under the training of Li Du and Nelson Sr.

Originally, Li Du also wanted to go to China to see how the "The Grandmaster" directed by Wong Kar-wai was filmed, speaking of which, the filming time of this movie is really long enough, from preparation to shooting, and then to various modifications, it has been almost 10 years! When Li Dugang came to prominence in the NBA, he heard Zhang Ziyi say that he was going to visit the class last season, but because of the recurrence of Yao Ming's foot injury, he was never able to communicate with the film crew properly.

As a result, when Li Du called director Wong Kar-wai, he heard the big director say that the current filming is in trouble again, and he is ready to temporarily disband the crew and shoot again next year. And he also asked Zhang Ziyi and Zhang Jin to rush to the United States in a few days and continue to follow Li Du to learn Xingyiquan and Baguazhang.

After Li Du listened, he frowned and said, "Director Wang, I heard Sister Ziyi say that you have been preparing for this movie for almost 10 years, and I believe you have spent a lot of effort, I don't understand the filming and production of the film, but if you need advice on martial arts, maybe we can discuss it." In this way, if it is convenient, you can bring the script and Sister Ziyi to San Francisco together. ”

Wong Kar-wai originally hoped to get Li Du's advice, but Li Du has been busy with the game, and they were the defending champions last season, and they encountered a strong lineup of Heat, Wong Kar-wai was embarrassed to disturb Li Du, this time Li Du took the initiative to speak, of course he couldn't ask for it, and immediately agreed.

After about a week, Wong Kar-wai came to San Francisco with several film crew members to find Li Du, he seemed to have always had a good impression of the Mingyue Martial Arts Hall, and came directly to the martial arts hall to meet Li Du.

After the two sides sat down, Pretti took a group of disciples recruited by the martial arts hall to make tea for everyone, and Li Du took the script from Wong Kar-wai and read it carefully.

"The Grandmaster" is based on the Wing Chun master Ip Man during the Republic of China as the protagonist, through his experience of having to travel around the country due to the war, try his best to restore the martial arts at that time, involving many martial arts masters at that time. For example, Gong Baosen, the head of the Xingyi Bagua Sect in the movie, is based on Gong Baotian, the master of the Palace School Bagua, and his senior brother Li Cunyi has not even changed his name.

And if Li Du guessed correctly, the prototype of the Bajiquan master in the movie is Liu Yunqiao, the closed disciple of the great master of Bajiquan Li Shuwen. The two virtual characters, Gong Er and Ma San, practice Baguazhang and Xingyi Boxing, and the display of these two boxing techniques in the film depends on these two.

After carefully reading the script, Li Du asked, "Director Wang, what problems are you encountering now?" ”

Wong Kar-wai said with a long sigh: "Mr. Li, you can see the script, I believe you can understand my thoughts, I hope to restore the martial arts at that time to the greatest extent, I hope to show the best martial arts movements, but for Xingyi Quan and Baguazhang, how should these two boxing techniques be filmed to ensure that the audience can distinguish them, and play well, but also let the audience feel the lethality of these two boxing techniques?" ”

Li Du frowned puzzledly and asked, "Sister Ziyi and Brother Zhang Jin have practiced very well, don't you just need to design the corresponding movements?" ”

"Alas!" Wong Kar-wai stomped his foot, "The difficulty is here!" ”

It turned out that Wong Kar-wai wanted to shoot in the case of preserving the real movements of the boxing method in the most realistic way, which made the action design very difficult. You know, no matter what kind of boxing method it is, it won't look good when it comes to real combat. At the moment when either you die or I die, as long as you can achieve the purpose of killing, who cares if the action is good or not!

Moreover, in fact, in real combat, many unsightly actions are the most lethal. Wong Kar-wai and they thought about it for a long time, but they didn't come up with a set of satisfactory movements. Wing Chun and Bajiquan are relatively easy to do, the movements of Wing Chun are guided by the disciples of Master Ip Man, and Bajiquan is also guided by the current disciples of the Bajimen in Mengcun, Hebei, but Xingyi Boxing and Baguazhang are not easy to do.

When Wong Kar-wai and the others carefully understood these two martial arts, they found that it was precisely because these two martial arts had produced many masters that there were many schools, just like Taijiquan, each school has a relationship with each other, and it is by no means different. This made it difficult for them to choose, dragged on for a long time, and finally had to temporarily disband the crew.

When Wong Kar-wai was talking, Li Du had been thinking about it seriously, and after having a general understanding of the situation, Li Du said to Zhang Jin: "Brother Zhang Jin, excuse me, play a complete Xingyi boxing." ”

Zhang Jinjin was already accustomed to Li Du's orders when he followed Li Du to learn boxing, and when he heard Li Du's words, he immediately stood up and began to play Xingyi Boxing seriously, starting from the Five Elements Boxing, all the way to the Twelve Shapes, complete and serious.

In the process of Zhang Jin's boxing, Li Du pointed at Zhang Jin and said to Wong Kar-wai: "Director Wang, look. In fact, Xingyi Fist is the most lethal and the best-looking, which is the Five Elements Fist, splitting and drilling horizontal, and each punch is full of momentum. Moreover, the differences in the Xingyi Quan genre are mainly in the twelve forms and the combined attack technique, and everyone is almost the same in terms of Five Elements Boxing, so I suggest that you let Zhang Jin Ge mainly show the Five Elements Boxing in the movie. ”

Li Du said this, Wong Kar-wai asked people to note what he said next to him, and then Li Du asked Zhang Ziyi to play Baguazhang, and also followed her action suggestion: "There is a big gap between the various factions of Baguazhang in terms of power, but the basic movements are also similar, and the biggest feature of Baguazhang is that the palm moves with the body method, and attacks the enemy's side, I think, if a beauty like Sister Ziyi plays a round and wishful action in the film, it will attract a lot of audiences, Moreover, Baguazhang's attack power is mainly in hitting the enemy's weak points, not how strong the strength is, you can start from this aspect. ”

After Li Du's two suggestions, he asked Zhang Ziyi to use Baguazhang to practice with her with Xingyi Boxing, and then let Zhang Jin use Xingyi Boxing to practice with him again. Wong Kar-wai recorded the whole process, for fear of missing any details, and he has decided to put Li Du's two sparring moves into the movie!
