Chapter Twenty-Nine: Kung Fu Kid

Martial arts dramas have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in China, so most actors can show a few hands, in addition to Jet Li, who was born in a professional class and has won the national martial arts championship many times, one of his junior brothers has also won the national martial arts championship many times and successfully entered the entertainment industry, that is, Wu Jing, the prince of kung fu. Wu Jing is not an ordinary fighter, but a very good fight, and the fighting scenes in "Black Fist" and "Wolf Teeth" are enough to prove that he has the potential to become a kung fu superstar.

However, Wu Jing's status is more embarrassing, because they are all from professional classes, so they are somewhat similar to Jet Li in style, and when he entered the entertainment industry, Jet Li had become a first-line superstar, and being pressed on the head by such a superstar, the difficulty of Wu Jing wanting to become popular quickly can be imagined. Therefore, Wu Jingjing has always been only in the ranks of the first line, and it is difficult to become a superstar. Wu Jing has seen all the movies Liang Xiaolong, and in his impression, Wu Jing has a deep understanding of martial arts, and if he plays the role of stealing gods, he will be able to interpret Chinese kung fu well.

However, if you want to invite Wu Jing, the script must be revised again, because he is too young to pretend to be husband and wife with Julia. But the change doesn't need to be too big, just change the husband and wife to sisters and brothers, and change the title in the script, anyway, there is no kiss scene or anything in Liang Xiaolong's script. Of course, Liang Xiaolong can't go to Yanjing to find someone recklessly, looking for someone requires knowledge, Liang Xiaolong first asked the company to come forward to get in touch with the Yanjing martial arts team, and then flew to Yanjing, otherwise people would have to bang out.

The predecessor of the Yanjing Wushu Team was the Yanjing Wushu School, now named Shichahai Sports School, which has opened more than 10 projects such as martial arts, boxing, shooting, fencing, etc., and the principal is Fan Zhijun. Receiving a call from Yanhuang Company, Fan Zhijun couldn't help but be stunned, and he had the impression that there was no such company at all. However, on the meeting network, I quickly found relevant information, and then I learned that it was a company founded by us Chinese in Hollywood, and we were going to start shooting a new film. In this way, Fan Zhijun could almost guess Liang Xiaolong's intention, so he invited Wu Bin, the coach of the martial arts class, to discuss: "Old Wu, what do you think?" ”

"I don't think so." Wu Bin is most afraid of people in the entertainment industry, those mercenary guys will not do anything else except rob people, this is just a matter of picking a few crooked melons and cracked dates, but if you want these guys to get rid of the good seedlings, the loss will be big, and the good seedlings are all guarantees of honor. Fan Zhijun knew what his old friend thought, so he persuaded: "Actually, this is not a bad thing, our school should have a few more people like Ajie (Jet Li) who are famous in the entertainment industry, which is only good for the school." What's more, the other party is still a Hollywood company, if this can make a name for itself in Hollywood, isn't it in line with the purpose of our school to promote national arts? ”

"Is it that easy to break into Hollywood?" Wu Bin said angrily: "Apart from Bruce Lee, who else has succeeded in Hollywood?" Don't be stupid, you think everyone has the same good fortune as Applejack? As soon as you debut, you will be a starring role? They are just here to pick people, and they are only to pick some small roles and actors. Fan Zhijun knew that he couldn't move him, so he simply came to the hard: "Anyway, the other person is going to arrive today, I will arrange for him to go to the martial arts class to observe, you are ready." ”

Wu Bin left angrily, Liang Xiaolong came in a hurry, Fan Zhijun was a little surprised by Liang Xiaolong's youth: "The future is terrifying, I didn't expect Mr. Liang to have his own company at such a young age." Liang Xiaolong hurriedly said: "Principal Fan said that it was just an inconspicuous small company, and it was not an achievement. Also, it's good for Principal Fan to call me Xiaolong, I don't dare to be Mr. After speaking, Liang Xiaolong took out a check for $500,000: "Principal Fan, the promotion of national arts is inseparable from funds, this is a little bit of caution on my part, please take the school to accept it." ”

Paying money naturally has the advantage of paying, and Fan Zhijun received the 500,000 yuan, and it was easy to ask for someone. Of course, Liang Xiaolong himself is also happy to pay this money, if it is not crossed, he will also become a part of the promotion of national arts. If this money was for Fan Zhijun, he would never dare to accept it, but if the money was for the school, he would be able to accept it with peace of mind: "To be honest, the school really needs money, and I thank you for your gift on behalf of all the teachers and students of the school." Liang Xiaolong hurriedly said: "Principal Fan, don't be polite, I am also a martial arts practitioner, and it is my job to promote national arts." Besides, didn't I come here today to ask you? ”

"Don't worry, I've already prepared the martial arts class, why don't we go over and have a look now?" Fan Zhijun proposed, of course Liang Xiaolong couldn't ask for it, which would make him want to find Wu Jing immediately, and then go back to the United States to start filming immediately. Because of the support of the state, the conditions of the martial arts class are not bad, a small indoor gymnasium, and all kinds of facilities are available. There will be a large group of students practicing martial arts, the older ones are in their early twenties, and the younger ones are only seven or eight years old, but even if they are young, they are also well-established and have good skills.

Martial arts is to kick, hit, fall, take, fall, hit, split, stab and other actions according to a certain law to form a variety of offensive and defensive fighting kung fu, routines and single posture exercises. If you practice martial arts well and can use them flexibly and freely in actual combat, that is real kung fu. Of course, no one here cultivates Neijia Kung Fu, because Neijia Kung Fu needs to cooperate with special breathing methods to successfully cultivate, and it is also a secret that is not passed on by all major sects, and it is rarely passed on to the outside world, and only a very small number of people are cultivating nationwide, and less than one-tenth of them have achieved cultivation.

Liang Xiaolong looked around, he didn't see Wu Jing, and couldn't help but think of an interesting story, in his previous life, director Zhang Xinyan came to the Yanjing martial arts team to pick people, and Wu Bin hid Wu Jing and a few other good seedlings, so that Zhang Xinyan returned empty-handed. It's just that Liang Xiaolong didn't expect that he would receive the same treatment, so he whispered in Fan Zhijun's ear: "Principal Fan, I won't tell you, I'm here for Wu Jing this time, and I have to trouble you to talk to Coach Wu Bin." ”

"That's a bit difficult!" Fan Zhijun couldn't help but smile bitterly, Wu Jing, who has won many national martial arts championships, is Wu Bin's heart, and even his friend Zhang Xinyan didn't let him go. Now he went up and said that Wu Binbao was not allowed to get angry, but Liang Xiaolong donated $500,000 as soon as he came, could he refuse? walked over, pulled Wu Bin aside, and said softly: "Old Wu, don't hide people, it's useless, people want Wu Jing by name." Wu Bin immediately became angry, but he didn't dare to sweep Fan Zhijun's face loudly: "Tell him, no way." Fan Zhijun said: "If you don't have a door, you have to smash the door, do you know how much people donated to our school as soon as they came?" 500,000 US dollars, nearly 4 million yuan, you said that he asked for someone, can I not give it? Wu Bin scolded in a low voice: "Because of four million, and then you sold Wu Jing?" ”

Regarding the temper of his old friend, Fan Zhijun could only smile bitterly: "How can it be sold?" Old Wu, think about it, Wu Jing is also old, how many competitions can he participate in? This opportunity is in front of you, I tell you, if you miss it, Wu Jing may hate you in the future. Wu Bin was silent for a while: "But Wu Jing doesn't know English, this is going abroad, can he get used to it?" Fan Zhijun hurriedly said: "You don't need to worry, other companies have tens of millions of dollars in funds, and it's not easy to hire a translator?" Also, people said that it was not for Wu Jing to play the show, but to play the leading role, maybe there will be another Jet Li in our school. I know that you are for the good of your children, but you can't miss your children's future because of your vision. ”

These words were well-reasoned and well-founded, and Wu Bin had to relax: "In this way, I'll call Wu Jing, if this kid agrees, then I have no opinion." Wu Bin left, and Fan Zhijun finally breathed a sigh of relief: "That old guy is relieved, but you have to convince Wu Jing yourself, if he doesn't agree, we don't have a problem." Liang Xiaolong said with a smile: "I believe he will be willing, Principal Fan, can I borrow your venue to practice a few moves, I haven't touched a blade for a long time." This is not a big problem, what is there for Fan Zhijun to refuse: "What weapon do you want?" ”

"Sword!" Liang Xiaolong can get his hands on eighteen kinds of weapons, but he has a soft spot for swords, but swords are the most difficult to practice, because they are light and agile, so the lethality is definitely not as good as that of a spear machete. Sword practitioners must achieve the sword and body, body and god, in order to send out the internal strength from the tip of the sword and exert the strongest lethality. There are really not many people who can do this, and those players in the national martial arts competition can only achieve sword and body fit, far from being in harmony with God. Liang Xiaolong has been immersed in silver for many years, and he has only barely touched this realm, but Liang Xiaolong knows that there is a Zhong Yunlong master in Wudang Mountain who has been immersed in silver Taiyi swordsmanship for decades, and the sword dances like a walking dragon, obviously reaching an extremely high realm.

Taking the sword, Liang Xiaolong's eyes instantly became different, as if the whole world was only left with the long sword in his hand. The sword moves, the sword moves with the body, the body moves with the god, like a silver snake dancing wildly, stopping the sword shadow in the sky. This hand appeared, and Fan Zhijun's expression immediately became different: "I didn't expect that at a young age, not only did he succeed in his career, but he also had such a high attainment in swordsmanship, and he could barely compare to those swordsmanship masters." Liang Xiaolong danced more and more urgently, his whole body seemed to be shrouded in sword light, he was running, and the sword light was also running, suddenly Liang Xiaolong rushed towards a wall, the whole person rose into the air, kicked six steps in a row on the wall, moved seven meters horizontally, and the last sword stabbed out, and the whole world seemed to be only that cold light.

"Good!" The more than twenty students all applauded loudly, and they could only sigh at themselves for such superb swordsmanship. Fan Zhijun was also applauding loudly, and Wu Bin and Wu Jing, who had just walked in, were also fortunate to see this scene, and couldn't help but be dumbfounded: "This kid's swordsmanship is so skillful, could it be that the heir of the inner boxing family?" ”

Seeing Wu Jing coming, Liang Xiaolong finally breathed a sigh of relief, put away his sword, and went to greet Wu Bin first: "Coach Wu, thank you for your understanding." Wu Bin smiled bitterly: "Lao Fan is right, I can't miss the child's future, now you can tell Wu Jing yourself." Liang Xiaolong thanked him again, turned his head and asked Wu Jing: "Hello, you can call me Xiaolong, I think Coach Wu has explained my intention to you, but I don't know if you are interested in going to Hollywood?" Wu Jing is a straightforward man, he doesn't like those things that beat around the bush, and only asked one question: "Why did you choose me?" ”;
