Chapter 0027: Meet Di Long
Zheng Yijian was overjoyed: Master Dilong is going back to Hong Kong, and I haven't seen him for more than half a year!
Ling Xiaofeng's home used to be in the Tianqi Building on Bingwu Road in Causeway Bay, just across the street from the United Building where Zheng Yijian lived. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Because of this, the six brothers were able to play from childhood to adulthood.
A few years ago, Ling Xiaofeng's parents immigrated to Australia, the second son longed for Australian education and went to Australia with his parents to live, and the third Ling Xiaofeng has been living in Hong Kong with his eldest sister Ling Shanshan.
Over the years, Ling Shanshan has taken care of her younger brother alone, and she has secured the position of the first sister on Hong Kong Radio 1 at a young age, which shows the demeanor of a strong woman.
In the past two years, after Ling Shanshan's job has stabilized, relying on the income from some commercial endorsements and some loans, she also bought a small villa in Mid-Levels, which is far away from Causeway Bay, so Zheng Yijian has come to eat a lot less this year.
During the more than ten years when Ling Xiaofeng's parents were not around, no matter how busy his uncle Dilong was with filming, he would take time to accompany them, teach Ling Xiaofeng and his friends boxing, and use his own way in the entertainment industry to help Ling Shanshan enter the industry.
Therefore, this time Dilong rushed back to Hong Kong in advance from Taiwan, also to spend the Spring Festival with them, and his Taiwanese sons did not have this treatment.
Zheng Yijian took a taxi to Ling Shanshan's villa in the middle of the mountain, entered the courtyard, and before he saw anyone, he was splashed first.
The dragon stood up from the pool, its strong upper body muscles shining in the sun.
Di Long Hao laughed and said: "Yijian, I heard that you entered the quarterfinals in the ring last month, and I just saw your pace, and the dodge is very inflexible!" Ha ha! β
Zheng Yijian knew that Dilong was joking, and also joked: "If I had an uncle who was half agile in his steps, the gold medal in this ring competition would not be a big head!" Hey, where's the big head? Didn't you come here today? β
Ling Xiaofeng came out of the villa, handed Zheng Yijian a drink, and then put an absorbent bath towel on the emperor who came up from the pool, he wiped it for his uncle, and said with a smile: "I called the big boy yesterday, he was probably afraid that he was repaired by his uncle, and he won the gold medal this time, he must be afraid that his uncle would pester him to test his kung fu, but in fact, he beat him up, so he made an excuse to say that the Guangdong Ten Tigers were very busy shooting, and he really couldn't get out today." β
Ling Shanshan also came out of the villa at this time, holding a fruit bowl containing cut watermelon, cantaloupe, and sweet orange. He put the fruit plate on the casual round table covered by a parasol by the pool, slapped Ling Xiaofeng lightly, and said with a smile: "Why do you even arrange good brothers!" β
Ling Shanshan turned her head to Zheng Yijian and said, "I heard that Teacher Zhang Che is very important, and he has been adding drama to his roles recently. Yesterday, the teacher also called his uncle and asked him to go to Guangdong Ten Tigers to play a cameo role, and he also played against Jiahao and praised him! β
Di Long wiped the water droplets from his hair, and then said: "Yes, now the whole crew is revolving around him, he has to work ten times harder, how can he ask for leave!" β
Di Long took a bite of the watermelon, and said to Zheng Yijian with a smile: "You brothers, I originally thought that you would be the first to take the position, but now that the big bosses are all successful husbands and stars, do you have any direction?" β
Zheng Yijian said with a smile: "Some time ago, I also sent Sister Meiqi to the wireless training class, and when I graduate at noon this year, I will be 17 years old, and I will also apply for the exam!" β
Dilong nodded: "The wireless training class is really good, Xiaofa, Wei Zai, and Andy are all from the training class." I may go back to Hong Kong to make a movie this time, do you want to say hello to the crew and let you come in and learn, or fight for a familiar role? β
Ling Shanshan said happily: 'Uncle, are you coming back to Hong Kong to film this time? How long will you stay? I'm going to add a few dishes at noon to celebrate! Then he turned and went into the house, and went to the kitchen to prepare lunch.
Hearing that Dilong's return to Hong Kong this time is not a short gathering, but will stay for a long time to film, Zheng Yijian and Ling Xiaofeng are also very happy, and they are all clamoring to visit the class on the set.
Di Long smiled: "I'm not sure yet, there are a few options this time, one is to help Chu Yuan explore the bottom to see if it is suitable for making martial arts films in Hong Kong, and the other option is for Xiaofa to call me back and talk about a film with John Woo." β
Zheng Yijian said strangely: 'Chu Yuan? Is it the director of Taiwanese martial arts dramas? β
Seeing Dilong nodded, Zheng Yijian knew that he had guessed well, although this Chu Yuan was rarely seen by many teenagers in the 21st century, his status in Taiwanese martial arts dramas in the 70s was the same as that of Zhang Che in Hong Kong.
The theatrical life of the master Dilong can be said to be a three-part of regulation.
The fledgling Dilong Master in his twenties was fortunate to worship under Master Zhang Che, and Wang Yu, Chen Guantai, and Jiang David were all Master Zhang Che's favorite generals.
Master Zhang Che's martial arts movies make Dilong's majestic, heroic, and neat kung fu image deeply rooted in the hearts of the audience. Dilong was pushed to the position of a first-line star in the post-Bruce Lee era.
When Dilong was in his thirties, he met Chu Yuan, the director of martial arts dramas, when he went to Taiwan to develop. The cooperation between the two can be called a good talent. Compared with Zhang Che, who has a tough style, Chu Yuan's martial arts dramas are more literary and artistic, and the image of the protagonist is more three-dimensional, which also gives Dilong more opportunities to hone his acting skills.
In the parallel world, Dilong, since the mid-80s, because of his cooperation with John Woo, has jumped again and become an actor-level celebrity in the Chinese film industry.
Thinking of this, Zheng Yijian realized that Uncle Dilong said just now that he came back to find John Woo to make a movie. But what the hell is Xiaofa?
Blessed to the soul, Zheng Yijian exclaimed: "Uncle doesn't want to cooperate with Zhou Yanfa, right?" β
Seeing Uncle Dilong nodding, Zheng Yijian was stunned for a while, and actually called Zhou Yanfa a small hair?
But if you think about it carefully, Uncle Dilong really has this generation, didn't Fa Ge play his little brother back then and gradually reach the peak?
Ling Xiaofeng said curiously: "Uncle, what kind of film did you cooperate with Fa Ge this time?" β
Dilong said: "Xiaofa told me on the phone that he is going to make a gangster shootout movie, called the true colors of heroes!" I'm hesitating to take it! I should push it off. β
WHATοΌ Hero's true colors? Still hesitating? Still push it off?
After a huge shock, Zheng Yijian stared at the righteous Emperor Long and guessed his thoughts.
In the past 20 years, whether Dilong has cooperated with Zhang Che or Chu Yuan, he has performed a chivalrous and tender heroic image, and his positive image has been branded into the audience's mind.
At this time, transform into a gangster boss? Give up the hero and act in a sudden gunfight movie?
How do you think about it, how do you feel about hitting the street!
Therefore, in comparison, Dilong hopes to continue to cooperate with Chu Yuan in martial arts movies for stability.
But it's not another movie! This is the true character of the hero, the first shootout film of the 80s revered by thousands of fans!
How can you let go of such an opportunity to advance to the top?
Take Zhou Yunfa as an example, everyone respectfully calls him Fa Ge, he has played countless classic roles, but only one role is almost as famous as his name.
That's Little Pony. The title of Little Pony comes from the classic image of Brother Mark in "The True Color of Heroes".
It can be said that it was "The True Color of Heroes" that established Fa Ge's status in the Chinese film industry.
But most people ignore that Fa Ge's little brother in "The True Color of Heroes" is just a supporting actor.
The real protagonist of "The True Color of Heroes" is the eldest brother Song Zihao played by Dilong, and it is also this classic role that pushes Dilong to the throne of the actor and ushers in the highest peak of his acting career!
However, Dilong actually hesitated to give up?
Zheng Yijian persuaded: "Uncle, you always tell us that real men are not afraid of wind and rain challenges, in the past twenty years, Zhang Che's martial arts, Chu Yuan's martial arts, you have acted to the extreme, there will be no breakthroughs, only gunfight movies, this is a new territory for action movies, entering this field, it is as if a martial arts practitioner breaks through the bottleneck, and after the ascension, there are countless possibilities waiting for you!" β
Ling Xiaofeng also said: "Yes, uncle, as soon as you talk about making martial arts movies, your general appearance and general character personality immediately popped out of my mind, there is nothing to see, you told me today, you want to play the boss of gangster shootout movies?" How cool is that! β
Di Long smiled and said: "Okay, I can't be as aggressive as you two boys, I'll contact Xiaofa tomorrow, the bullets are raining, I'm broken!" β
The emperor of this world actually listened to his own advice to star in "The True Color of Heroes"? Zheng Yijian suddenly had a sense of absurd joy in making history.
Ling Shanshan came to the door of the house and said, "Uncle, Yijian, Xiaofeng, the meal is ready, come and eat!" β
Zheng Yijian, Di Long and others came to the dining room and sat down as guests.
Zheng Yijian looked at the six dishes and one soup, which were full of color, flavor and flavor, and immediately had a great appetite and feasted on it.
Ling Shanshan asked Di Long: "Uncle, this time I returned to Hong Kong, is it just about talking about movies?" Is there any other arrangement? I have time to string my show! β
Dilong smiled: "This time I also received an invitation from Xu Laowei, after the beginning of this year, on the day of the Dragon Head Festival, Hong Kong will hold the Lion King Competition, when the time comes, the north and the south will wake up the lion, Southeast Asia, Europe and the United States and Chinese will send the lion team to participate, the Yuan family class, the Hong family class will be out of the lion, when the dragon fights, you can all go to watch the battle!" β
Lion King Battle? Zheng Yijian's first thought was Li Lianjie's classic Huang Feihong story. In the Wong Fei Hung series of movies, the most classic and influential is definitely "The Lion King".
In the real world, is there also a lion king competition?
Ling Xiaofeng said clearly: "I've heard the big boss say that all the big halls in Hong Kong will send lion teams to compete, and their great sage will also participate in the competition!"
Dilong said: "This time, Xu Laowei, Cheng Xiaodong, and Yuan Heping will be judges, and I want to find some good martial arts seedlings when the time comes." β
Because the lion dance must have the form of a god, the lion dancer is generally a martial artist with advanced kung fu. Each martial arts hall will also send a master martial artist to participate in the competition, after all, this represents the face of a martial arts hall.
Zheng Yijian joked: "The winner can enter the eyes of several big directors!" Then I'll participate too! β
