283 Great burial, three suicide notes, reinvigorated
Bruce Lee's identity is special. Since the late Qing Dynasty, China has suffered too much humiliation and the Chinese have suffered too much, and the Chinese nation is a hardworking and forbearant nation, and it is too necessary for someone to stand up and correct the name of the people and the nation. Bruce Lee did it, and every one of his movies shows such a spirit of self-improvement and unyielding courage to challenge the West; His life experience is a history of Chinese struggle; His kung fu also allowed Chinese kung fu to get rid of the impression of flashy and lacking in actual combat. The evil breath that has been accumulated in the chest of the Chinese for a long time has been released painfully and happily in Bruce Lee!
It is for the above reasons that Bruce Lee's funeral said that 20,000 fans spontaneously rushed to the Kowloon funeral home, they waited quietly, just to see the last side of the idol, in front of the funeral home, 500 Hong Kong police officers were on standby, lest the fans be confused due to emotional out-of-control.
At about 8 o'clock in the morning, the Kowloon Police Station in Hong Kong ushered in three distinguished guests, walking in the front is Shaw Shaw Shaw, followed by Jin Yong, the founder of "Ming Pao", and Shen Zhong, the elder behind the scenes of 14K, three well-known figures in Hong Kong came to the Kowloon Police Station, which made all the police officers feel very surprised.
Run Run Shaw came to the police station office and said to the commissioner: "I am here to bail Wang Xiaohu!" ”
Although the director had already received a message from above that someone wanted to bail Wang Xiaohu, he never expected that the three who came to bail would be the three in front of him.
Needless to say, Run Run Shaw's fame is that the old man who has been in the Hong Kong film industry for many years naturally has a wide range of contacts, and it is said that even the Hong Kong inspector has to give him a little thin face. That Jin Yong hero is even more powerful, not to mention countless admirable heroes portrayed under the pen, and his newspapers are all over Southeast Asia, and his influence is the same, if anyone offends Jin Daxia, you have to wait for the whole Southeast Asia region to be your enemy.
Director look at Shen Zhong who is there with the old god, one head and two big! Now everyone knows that Shen Guohao, who died a while ago in 14k, is his own son, and this old man participated in the "Double Ten Riots" back then, which is not simple, and he can't afford to offend!
Cold sweat seeped from the director's head and slid down his back, a little itchy, and even more uncomfortable! Under the watchful eyes of the three bigwigs, he pushed the bail letter to Run Run Shaw to sign, and then ordered someone to take Wang Xiaohu out.
When Wang Xiaohu appeared in front of the three of them with white hair, Shen Zhong, who was not moved even if his son died, was stunned. "Xiaohu, you are"
Wang Xiaohu sighed and said, "It's nothing, thank you for bailing me out, it's almost time now, let's go to the funeral home." ”
The car is Shaw's extended Lincoln, the four of them sat in the car and kept silent, Shaw looked at Wang Xiaohu's white hair and only shook his head and sighed, although the two brothers are not brothers, they are better than brothers, one is a kung fu master and an international superstar, and the other is able to be literate and martial arts is to pull up the banner of "Concord" in Hong Kong, the land of projectiles, and his own Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest three parts of the world, and not long ago they cooperated with Warner "Enter the Dragon" box office amazing. Although Wang Xiaohu poached Xu Guanwen, the popular host of TVB, a while ago, and complained about him for this, now these grievances and grievances have been diluted.
Run Run Shaw admires Wang Xiaohu very much! admires his generosity and boldness, admires his talent, and envies Bruce Lee for having such a brother who can be maintained and supported in every way! When Bruce Lee was shocked to hear about the Temple Street incident, he quickly returned from Rome, and now Wang Xiaohu has gray hair overnight because of the death of his brother, so brotherhood is enough to make Shaw awe-inspired.
The car could not continue to move forward 200 meters outside the funeral home, and there were people all around, with sad faces on their faces, and some people cried in pain, shouting loudly "Bruce Lee" and "Bruce. Lee" and "go all the way" and something like that.
Immediately, the police came to open the way, and Lincoln was able to enter the crowd only after lengthening the car, and countless flashing lights quickly focused, and when they saw Wang Xiaohu, who had a sad face, was full of white hair, they all exclaimed, and all kinds of discussions came and went.
"Isn't this Wang Xiaohu? How did he get gray hair? ”
"yes, will you have gray hair because you are in a hurry?"
"Quite possibly!"
"This brotherhood is really deep, if it were me, I would also beat Bai Yunsheng!"
"Well, no one can stand it, it seems that we are wrong to blame him!"
Wang Xiaohu didn't seem to hear the discussion in his ears, and from the moment he saw the funeral home, his mood became extremely complicated. Walking slowly in front, walking towards the funeral home step by step, Run Run Shaw, Jin Yong, and Shen Zhong silently followed behind him, and all the reporters kept pressing the flash to record this strange scene.
In the mourning hall, there is a huge blue banner with the words "Art Sea Stars Fall, Philosophers Die", and in the center of the mourning hall is a huge photo of Bruce Lee wearing sunglasses. The wreaths of the memorial service are piled up, and among them, the wreath of Li's wife Lianda is written with the elegy of 'Xiaolong loves her husband and continues to live in the future'.
In just one month, Wang Xiaohu participated in two funerals, the first time was from his master Ip Man, but this time it was his brother Bruce Lee's! Holding back the tears that were about to run out, Wang Xiaohu gritted his teeth and walked in.
On the side of the coffin, Linda sat there wearing linen and filial piety, Bruce Lee's brother and sister-in-law Li Zhongchen and Lin Yanni accompanied Linda, and her daughter Xiangning was also sitting on the floor wearing linen and filial piety, looking a little dazed, and the three-year-old child didn't know what was going on at this time.
Only Li Guohao kept looking at the entrance of the funeral home, until the white-haired Wang Xiaohu walked in, and Li Guohao, who was seven and a half years old, bit his lip and cried with tears in his eyes, because he had a secret, a secret that could never be opened to hide from his Uncle Tiger! He was sad to see Uncle Tiger worry about his father's gray hair all night, he wanted to say something, but he was afraid
"Ah Hu is here!" I don't know who shouted, the whole funeral parlor looked at the door in unison, like all the first time they saw Wang Xiaohu's white hair, they all grew their mouths in shock, and several of the Seven Xiaofu brothers even hid their faces and cried, they knew better than anyone the brotherhood between Wang Xiaohu and Bruce Lee, and now the "white-haired people" sent black-haired people, how could they not make them sad and sad.
"Fetch the white linen." After Wang Xiaohu stepped into the mourning hall, he said in a hoarse voice.
Seeing this, Li Zhongchen looked at Linda with some hesitation, Linda nodded and said, "Tiger and Bruce are like brothers" The rest of the words were no longer available.
Someone had already sent the sackcloth, after Wang Xiaohu put it on his body, he didn't know why his mood was a little empty, after a few days of thinking, he seemed to understand something, slowly walked to the coffin, and uncovered the coffin. It is said that it is not yet time for relatives and friends to pay respects to the remains, Wang Xiaohu's move is definitely a violation of the rules, but everyone acquiesces in his rude behavior.
Bruce Lee lay calmly in the coffin, wearing the Tang costume he wore in "Jingwumen", with a peaceful face. This scene reminds Wang Xiaohu of Huo Yuanjia's mourning hall in the film. Holding the coffin in his hand, he slowly slid from one side to the other, looking at Bruce Lee who had been plastic surgery: "Hey! That's how you go! Brother Xiaolong, you can rest assured and go, Linda, Guohao, Xiangning, and our Concord Company I will take care of it, if you have knowledge under the spring, you should also rest assured! ”
Wang Xiaohu's voice seemed to be muttering to himself, hoarse but clearly transmitted to the ears of everyone in the mourning hall, everyone's hearts were not sour, tears flowed out unconsciously, Li Guohao was even more unbearable, he ran from the floor crying, hugged Wang Xiaohu's thigh and whispered: "Uncle Tiger, Dad is not dead, Dad is not dead, he is filming, he is filming!" ”
"Silly boy, your father is gone!" Wang Xiaohu stroked Li Guohao's blonde hair, not knowing how to comfort the young Li Guohao. Everyone's eyes were focused on the two people in the field, and unaware that one of them quietly left.
Zou Wenhuai, Luo Wei, Wang Yu, He Shouxin and other old colleagues of Golden Harvest came, some of them were estranged, and some had a grudge against Bruce Lee. At this moment, all grievances and grievances will fade in this sad and solemn atmosphere. They mourned Bruce Lee, and many wept or wept loudly.
Luo Wei took off his glasses and wiped the tears from his eyelids, walked up to Wang Xiaohu and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Ah Hu, I admit that I used to be jealous of you before, and even excluded you, but now that Xiaolong is gone, I hope you will go well with Xiehe." ”
"Thank you!" Wang Xiaohu bowed deeply, the expression on his face was very wooden, he believed Luo Wei's words, but he didn't believe Zou Wenhuai behind Luo Wei! Because although Luo Wei relies on the old and sells the old, he is far less sleek and old-fashioned than Zou Wenhuai. It is said that Brother Xiaolong has left, and those who have had conflicts and disputes with him will put aside their hostility and bow deeply to this legendary man who has made great contributions to Chinese cinema and martial arts. The dead are gone, and it is the grudge to meet with a smile, but how did the self-proclaimed Bruce Lee Bole Zou do? Hmph~ This is not over!
Bruce Lee's two confidantes, Ding Pei and Miao Kexiu, also came to see him off. As a wife, Linda showed the greatest tolerance and understanding, not only did not blame Ding Pei, but comforted her not to be too sad and guilty for Bruce Lee's death. Miao Kexiu, who has worked with Bruce Lee in many films, is also grief-stricken.
Facing Ding Pei, Wang Xiaohu has a complicated feeling, he once prevented the two from interacting, and now it has been proved that Bruce Lee's death has nothing to do with her, and he only has pity and sympathy for her now.
As for Miao Kexiu, who is now a female artist signed by Concord, according to Wang Xiaohu's memory, after the death of Bruce Lee in his previous life, the popular Miao Kexiu left Golden Harvest, served as a host on the TV station and filmed several TV series, and finally faded out of the entertainment industry, settled in Toronto, Canada, and is still unmarried. Every time Bruce Lee sacrifices, Miao Kexiu will go to Seattle to pay respects to the deceased.
Fan representatives, the first batch of training students of Dragon and Tiger Martial Arts, and Wing Chun disciples came in in three batches to pay homage to Bruce Lee's remains, they cried bitterly in front of the museum, Huang Chunliang patted Wang Xiaohu on the shoulder, and saw Wang Xiaohu's sad words and stopped, and finally shook his head and walked away.
At about 11 o'clock, Bruce Lee's coffin was carried out of the funeral home with the efforts of Wang Xiaohu, Sammo Hung, Lin Zhengying, Yuan Biao, Chen Huiyi, and Jackie Chan.
All the newspapers in Hong Kong reported on the incident on their front pages.
On January 26, Xiao Nian, Wang Xiaohu, who had handled Bruce Lee's funeral, did not come out, and Linda, Huang Chunliang, Deng Sheng, Run Run Shaw and his lawyer friends came to visit.
"Tiger, there's something I have to make clear to you." Linda took out three envelopes, handed over the first one and said, "This is what we found in the study when we were sorting out Bruce's relics, this is the Concord share transfer contract, in which Bruce clearly said that he will transfer 40% of his shares to you, and the other 10% will be reserved for me and the children to live on." ”
Wang Xiaohu turned his head suddenly, and his hands trembled as a result of the envelope, on which were two contracts in Chinese and English, of which the Chinese part was as Linda dictated, Bruce Lee took out four-fifths of his 50% shares and transferred them all, and the other 10% was to provide Linda and the children's living expenses in the future. At the end of the contract is Bruce Lee's real signature, the handwriting is incorrect, the lawyer's name is Benaki, that is, Run Run Shaw's lawyer friend, who once asked Wang Xiaohu to help ask for "Jingwumen" and "Ip Man" to the mainland's well-known Hong Kong barrister.
"The second letter is to award you a six-dan certificate for Jeet Kune Do, when you were filming "Rocky" in the United States, Bruce mentioned more than once that your cultivation has reached the sixth-dan, and this certificate was reissued to you by him."
"The third is Bruce's suicide note." Linda said that this place was a little gloomy, and her voice was almost choked: "He asked his body to be placed in Seattle. ”
Wang Xiaohu nodded, this was no different from Bruce Lee's decision in his previous life. "What about you and the children?"
Linda looked up and said, "I need to take them to Seattle to bury Bruce first, and according to Bruce's strong request, Brandon will stay with you and recognize you as a godfather." ”
Rumble! Wang Xiaohu's brain exploded! "It turns out that Brother Xiaolong has already arranged everything!"
"Also, from the perspective of a friend, I hope you can cheer up, "Enter the Dragon" is about to be released, you should lead Concord to a higher glory and complete the task that Bruce failed to complete." Linda wiped the tears on her face and said faintly, "Mr. Shao will fully cooperate with you." ”
"yes, I know." Wang Xiaohu took a deep breath, stood up and looked out the window, the sky was already bright at this time, the sun shone through the window in the room, and the boulder he suppressed disappeared with Bruce Lee's three suicide notes and the mission on his shoulders-
The transition chapter has passed, and the next part is Xiaohu's anger and efforts to build the Tiger Dynasty, and a well-known entertainment dynasty was born under Wang Xiaohu, so let the monthly pass come more fiercely, okay? I know you guys have guaranteed monthly passes!
