Chapter 81: Interests

In his previous life, when Liang Xiaolong met Zhong Yunlong, he was nearly fifty years old, and he stepped into his old age with one foot, even if he was a master of the inner fist, it was impossible to resist the erosion of the years. However, now, Daoist Zhong Yunlong is only thirty-four years old and in the prime of life, but he has taken over the position of head of Wudang and has made great contributions to the promotion of Wudang culture.

Because of his long-term study of Taoist culture, Zhong Yunlong does not have a bit of martial spirit, but only gives people a sense of detachment. Liang Xiaolong, in accordance with the etiquette of the rivers and lakes, hugged his fists and bent down to perform the junior salute: "Boy Liang Xiaolong has seen the Taoist. Rachel also saluted and said in Chinese, "I've seen the Taoist." Zhong Yunlong said: "Xiaoyou don't have to be polite, I have heard the name of Xiaoyou for a long time, and I have traveled overseas and made great contributions to the promotion of my country's kung fu." Liang Xiaolong hurriedly said: "It's just a small fight, I have heard for a long time that the Dao Chang's swordsmanship is mysterious, and I have a special Longquan sword, and I hope that the Dao Chang will smile." ”

Zhong Yunlong just shook his head: "No, the Longquan Sword is too precious, and the old Dao can't afford it." Liang Xiaolong said: "The sword can only be called a sword in the hands of people who know the sword, and it can only be used as an ornament in the hands of ordinary people. Zhong Yunlong shirked a few more times, but Liang Xiaolong had to give it away, so he had no choice but to accept it: "Accept such a heavy gift from Xiaoyou, the old Taoist priest can't help but say, if Xiaoyou is willing, you can stay in Wudang Mountain for a few more days, and we can discuss swordsmanship in Pingyue." Liang Xiaolong hurriedly said: "The kid can't ask for it, thank you for the success of the Dao." ”

In this way, Liang Xiaolong just took Rachel away, but he was so happy in his heart, among the many cold weapons, his favorite is the sword, and now he can get the guidance of a generation of swordsmanship masters, it is very likely that he will improve his swordsmanship again, and for a martial arts practitioner, what is there to be happy about than kung fu?

"Get rid of it, it's time to stop giggling endlessly." Rachel gave him a blank look: "I didn't see you so happy when I saw me." Liang Xiaolong smiled and hugged her: "Baby, you are really a vinegar jar, even eating men's vinegar." Rachel pinched his waist and smiled, "Jealous, that means I'm close to you, you should be happy." Liang Xiaolong was pained and said, "Yes, I was so happy that I wanted to cry." Rachel laughed, "Honestly, did you do anything to be sorry for me during my absence?" Liang Xiaolong hurriedly said: "In other words, women are the party, and since they have joined the party, they must be loyal to the party." ”

Rachel laughed, "Count your answer as passing." Liang Xiaolong snorted: "What do you mean?" We're a peerless good man who walks the talk, baby, you've earned it. Rachel gave him a blank look: "Virtue." Liang Xiaolong hugged her, attached it to her ear, and whispered, "Baby, where do you live?" I've been on the road for a day and want to rest. Rachel snorted, "Pervert." Liang Xiaolong smiled: "I'm a pervert, Little Red Riding Hood, let's steal joy." ”

The surname of this thing, some people like sucking. Drugs, and then life is disorderly, some people are like smoking, although they are addicted, but they are not to the point where they will die without smoking, but as long as they put the cigarette in front of him, they will immediately take a few puffs beautifully. Liang Xiaolong and Rachel are the latter, usually fine, this meeting is like a smoker who is addicted to smoking.

**Later, Liang Xiaolong greedily sniffed the woman's fragrance on her body: "Brother Baoyu is right, women are made of water, baby, your charm is getting bigger and bigger." Rachel was amused by him and giggled: "What about being your own hound?" Do I really smell that good? Liang Xiaolong said: "Yes, you are my best prey." ”

Suddenly, Rachel sighed softly, and her voice became a little sad: "Xiaolong, have you ever thought about finding another woman?" Liang Xiaolong was slightly stunned, and then sneered: "Baby, what are you talking nonsense?" We've been together for a year, haven't we? Have you ever seen me have a crooked mind? Rachel sobbed, "Men are animals that think with their lower bodies, and if they don't feed you, can you not cheat?" Woo woo...... "Liang Xiaolong couldn't help but smile bitterly, a harmonious society, everything must be harmonious, and the life of husband and wife must be even more harmonious, but is it wrong to be a little stronger?" Besides, he didn't cheat either.

Liang Xiaolong hugged her: "Baby, let's not think nonsense, okay?" Rachel sobbed even harder, "I don't want to be cranky, but my dear, I'm afraid, I'm afraid that one day you'll leave me." Liang Xiaolong smiled bitterly again, if this woman drilled the tip of the horns, she couldn't pull it back with the train, and he didn't know how to comfort him: "Baby, why don't you help me find a way, think of a way to make me inseparable from you?" Rachel snorted, "You scoundrel, how do I know what to do to keep you from me." Liang Xiaolong smiled: "Then you will try your best to exude your charm and fascinate me to death." ”

Rachel suddenly said quickly and in a low voice: "Actually, if you want to find another woman, I won't be jealous." Liang Xiaolong said: "Baby, instead of thinking nonsense, it's better to do it again, during this time, you can think about me badly." ”

At three or four o'clock in the afternoon, as soon as the sun turned west and the light was poor, Stephen stopped filming, and the crew began to have dinner. Liang Xiaolong also used to chat with everyone, more about the domestic entertainment industry and Hollywood, and it can also be seen that everyone wants to go to Hollywood to develop, after all, Hollywood is the stage of the world, and a filmmaker can only conquer the world if he conquers Hollywood. Otherwise, no matter how well you mix well in China, you will have a relatively large influence in Asia, and European and American countries will not buy your account at all.

Moreover, the Hollywood shooting environment is also far better than that in China, not to mention the special effects, the funds alone are not comparable in China. The production cost of a mid-range investment film in Hollywood is as high as 40 or 50 million US dollars, while in China, 40 or 50 million US dollars is enough to create a super production with an all-star luxury lineup, such as "Hero", the production cost is only 30 million US dollars.

There is no way to do it, domestic films start too slowly, there are too few sources of income, and there are basically only two sources of income at the box office and product placement. Unlike the United States, those large companies can develop the value of the film in an all-round way, just think Yanhuang Film Company, a "Police and Thieves", the box office revenue is more than 100 million US dollars, CD distribution can also earn tens of millions, and Sword Pavilion also has tens of millions of profits, which are not available in China. If Liang Xiaolong is willing to sell "The Police and the Thief" to a pay TV channel, it is estimated that he can still have a large income.

Therefore, whether it is for money or fame, it is better to get into Hollywood than to hold it at home. Of course, the premise is that you can get a foothold in Hollywood. Jet Li said again: "Now that you and Wu Jing have gained a firm foothold in Hollywood in China, a few of us and Andy have half a foot in Hollywood, and Jackie Chan has been relatively smooth, and he has already negotiated with the new line company." ”

Liang Xiaolong couldn't help but be stunned, Jackie Chan is also going to Hollywood? But after thinking about it carefully, it is relieved, from Jackie Chan's point of view, Andy, Jet Li, Wu Jing and others have entered Hollywood one after another, if he does not become like Hollywood as soon as possible, and when Andy's group of people gain a firm foothold in Hollywood, it will become more difficult for him to succeed in Hollywood, so at this time he must make a choice; Secondly, you can look at the problem from the perspective of the new line, from "Tomb Robbery" to "Police and Thieves", the United States has set off a kung fu frenzy, and when "Black Fist" and "Terracotta Warriors" are released, this craze will be even more turbulent, and fans will look forward to films with Chinese elements more, so if you shoot a Chinese kung fu movie, you don't have to worry about fans not buying it.

Jackie Chan, as the king of martial arts in China, not to mention his kung fu foundation, his special funny style of play is also a highlight of the film, coupled with a selling script, a powerful director, and more than half of the box office success: "Do you know the name of the film?" Jet Li said: ""Rush Hour", I heard that the new line had prepared this script early, and invited Jackie Chan last year, but Jackie Chan refused. ”

Liang Xiaolong was stunned again, but he didn't expect that the time was advanced by a few years, and Jackie Chan still entered Hollywood with this film. However, "Rush Hour" is indeed a great film, with a high box office of $140 million in the United States in the past life, and $110 million overseas, with a total box office of $250 million, I believe Jackie Chan will have a good start in Hollywood.

Thinking of this, Liang Xiaolong couldn't help but be happy, there are more and more Chinese movie stars who have stepped into Hollywood, and I believe that they will have high popularity next year, and at that time, if they want to shoot a blockbuster of the Anti-Japanese War, they don't have to worry about not finding Chinese movie stars with strong appeal. Of course, there are also a lot of extra salaries, but the exchange of these salaries for strong box office appeal can only be described in one word - value! It's like "National Treasure", the theme is good and the story is good, but if there is no Oscar-winning actor Nicholas. Cage's strong box office appeal, can it still win the global box office of $350 million? It can only be said that it will achieve a very good box office.

Early the next morning, Liang Xiaolong came to Zhong Yunlong's residence and asked him to learn swordsmanship for a while, during which he rested for a while, Zhong Yunlong asked: "I heard that you want to integrate the major schools and open a martial arts hall in the United States." Liang Xiaolong hurriedly said: "The Taoist is laughing, the kid is light-hearted, how can it be possible to integrate the major schools, he is just responsible for renting venues and publicizing some matters, as for whether the cooperation can be successful, it depends on the meaning of the martial arts association." I wonder what the Taoist chief thinks about this? Zhong Yunlong said: "It is a great merit to be able to promote the national art overseas, but this matter is difficult." ”

After thinking for a while, Zhong Yunlong said again: "There are so many martial arts schools involved, and the entanglement of interests is too complicated, even if this thing can be done, it will take at least half a year." Liang Xiaolong couldn't help frowning: "Half a year, coupled with personnel training and venue rental, has missed the best opportunity." Zhong Yunlong sighed: "Unless you can resolve the dispute over interests, this matter will not be so easy." Liang Xiaolong couldn't help but smile bitterly, he provided a way, but now he made himself look like he was begging for someone. But is this conflict of interests so easy to resolve? I am not a person with a very developed economic cell, so it is strange that I can come up with it.
