As the founder of Jeet Kune Do and a world-renowned martial artist, it was natural for Bruce Lee to open a museum to teach apprentices. Outside of work, he likes to read and think, and likes to record his feelings anytime and anywhere. These reflections were later compiled into a book called "Awakening Reflections", part of which was related to teaching and education.

Two of his favorite sayings were: "The usefulness of a cup is its emptiness." "To taste the water in my cup, you must first empty your cup." It can be seen that when he speaks of "emptiness", he does not mean negative emptiness and nothingness, but positive "openness for acceptance". Just like a cup, when it is filled with water, it cannot hold more water, only by letting the water in the cup flow, empty and empty, and the cycle continues, so that the cup will not be a closed cup, and the water will not be a static stagnant water.

But Wang Xiaohu said: "I emptied my cup, but found that your water exceeded the capacity of my cup, or rather, I tasted your water, but found that it did not taste like that, because I have not yet reached your realm." ”

Wang Xiaohu's words made Bruce Lee frown tightly, he didn't expect Wang Xiaohu to refute himself with such an argument at all. "I just want them to put aside their preconceptions and accept my stuff. And let them have their own opinions based on my stuff, wouldn't it? ”

"Yes, yes, the question is what if the person himself doesn't have his own prejudices? They're like a blank sheet of paper with the advanced theories that you've come up with, Jeet Kune Do is about yourself, your own personal style of martial arts, and everybody should have their own style of martial arts, and that's exactly what you want to see. ”

Seeing that he was no longer talking, Wang Xiaohu continued: "Let's be realistic: in your boxing practice, you have experienced strict Wing Chun hand exercises, and your body already has an instinctive conditioned reflex, and when you encounter any situation, you can automatically react immediately, without thinking. But your apprentice has left this training system in check. Just as you step up a building, there are stairs when you go upstairs, and you can go up step by step. But your disciples don't have the stairs, so how can they go up to the top floor? ”

Wang Xiaohu made the same analogy as going up the mountain, which explained his thoughts more directly, and he made an analogy based on Bruce Lee's experience of learning Wing Chun to get an instinctive reaction, so that Bruce Lee understood what he meant.

"Even the most brilliant master needs to embody his profound theories through simpler words and techniques." Bruce Lee shook his head and sat on the sofa, touched his forehead and said with a wry smile: "I think I understand what you mean, I have to perfect my Jeet Kune Do, so that more people know that Jeet Kune Do is not a simple side kick and punch, Xiaohu, maybe what you said is very correct, but recently I have been busy filming movies and neglecting the theoretical research of martial arts." Thank you for reminding me. ”

"Say a thousand things and ten thousand, I only hope that you will use the previous methods to improve Jeet Kune Do, instead of pulling out the seedlings through drugs or other equipment." This sentence is what Wang Xiaohu said in his heart, through his continuous thinking and summarization just now, he knew that it might not work to persuade Bruce Lee with the old way, and he had to refute him with topics that interested him, or with the martial arts knowledge he proposed, so that he could accept it.

Unconsciously, Wang Xiaohu mastered a new way of communication, but it made him feel a little mentally and physically exhausted, because thinking about these complex and esoteric things is too headache, no wonder Bruce Lee can create Jeet Kune Do, it must be that people have a rich background, and they have nothing to study and think about these headache philosophical questions.

"Anyway, it's a long time, the movie can't be made in a day." Wang Xiaohu smiled and said: "What's more, in addition to filming movies, there are more ways to promote martial arts." ”

Bruce Lee smiled bitterly: "But at present, the promotion effect of the movie is the best, do you want me to keep going to the gym?" ”

"Hehe, you are now at the level of a grandmaster, you don't have to go to the gym, there is an endless stream of people who come up to kick the gym every day." Wang Xiaohu sighed, this matter can only be blamed on Bruce Lee, when he returned to Hong Kong, in order to highlight his Jeet Kune Do style, and his own surname in TV shows and media interviews, he wantonly denied the national arts, which caused great dissatisfaction among colleagues in the Hong Kong martial arts community, so that he has been accepting various challenges for the past year and a half.

These challenges have given Bruce Lee a big headache, accept it, the other party is small, and he is no longer on the same level as himself, if he doesn't fight, people will ridicule you Bruce Lee is a coward.

"Hey, those people have something wrong in their hearts, if their hearts are at ease, they will not challenge me, and the challenger must use this kind of competition to achieve some ulterior purpose, and I will never pay attention to these!"

Wang Xiaohu smiled and said, "But you accepted my challenge." ”

"The quality of the surname is completely different, right?" Bruce Lee glanced at him and said, "Okay, I've told you about the matter, you better go home and prepare." ”

Wang Xiaohu nodded and stood up and said, "You are the same, take care of your spirit, let's go to play Xiaoyueben, hahaha." ”

"That's right, let's go fight Xiao Yuben!" Bruce Lee smiled and shook his fist

Since he is going to Yueben, he must delay it for a few days, and if he wants to complete what Wang Xiaohu secretly planned, I am afraid it will take longer, so in the few days that he is not in Hong Kong, he must arrange the filming plan of the crew of "Ip Man".

After calling Yuan Heping, Sammo Hung, Yuan Biao, Jackie Chan and others, Wang Xiaohu began to arrange work one by one.

"Brother Ping, you urge the people participating in the performance to familiarize themselves with the script during this time, and figure out the surnames of the characters, especially on the side of Fa Zai, he is a newcomer who definitely doesn't understand filming, so you bother to point out."

Yuan Heping hummed and said that he had written down the matter.

Wang Xiaohu then said to Sammo Hung : "Senior Brother Sanmao continues to look for Ren Dahua, I remember that he seems to be in the modeling industry at the moment, and after finding it, I will show him the script." If I really can't find it, you can help me pay attention to who is more suitable to play Zhou Qingquan in the next circle. ”

After all, the role of Zhou Qingquan is not very important, to put it bluntly, he is a character throughout the whole play, and sometimes he is not as good as Zhou Qingquan's son Ah Yao, and he is basically a tricky character in "Ip Man 2". The reason why Ren Dahua's appearance is emphasized is mainly to connect with him first, so that they can get familiar with each other and expand the development of the company.

It's not that Wang Xiaohu doesn't want to invite other powerful actors in the Hong Kong film industry, but those powerful actors are all old fritters at present, most of them are linked to the interests of Shaw Brothers, and if they want to participate in the performance, they will definitely be paid a lot of money, in terms of Wang Xiaohu's current family background, they can't stand the toss of those bigwigs and stars, and they are all bullish, and their tempers are not as good as those of newcomers!

"Ah Long, you are generally aware of the current situation in Hong Kong during this time, our seven little blessings can only play the greatest glory if they are together, I hope you can settle down and work hard with your brothers, I believe we will all get ahead in the near future." Wang Xiaohu is still a little worried about Jackie Chan, after all, the future development of the other party is unlimited, and often this kind of character is also very difficult to control, and if he has been with him for a long time, he will also have a lot of his own ideas.

In fact, in the long run, the group of people gathered under his command will dominate the entire Hong Kong film industry, not to mention others, just Chow Yun-fat, Stephen Chow, Jackie Chan, "Double Monday" is the guarantee of the box office! However, these three people have only just been recruited by themselves, and they still have a longer way to go.

"Well, Ah Hu I know." Jackie Chan nodded vigorously and replied.

"What about me? Ah Hu, what do you arrange for me? Yuan Biao asked anxiously. Wang Xiaohu smiled and said: "You have a lot of things, you are familiar with the script, figure out the martial arts idiot Lin well, and then help me supervise the progress of Wang Jiaxin and Zhang Yuan." ”

"Okay!" Yuan Biao pouted a little depressedly: "Actually, I really want to go with you." ”

"Hehe, isn't it the same for me to help me at home?" Wang Xiaohu said with a smile.

After everyone left, Wang Xiaohu pulled Yuan Biao into his study, took out a check and said: "This is 500,000 Hong Kong dollars, during my absence, if Wang Jiaxin and Zhang Yuan need to transfer funds, you do your best to meet them, you look at the money, but you have to check every expense and record it, do you know?" ”

Yuan Biao took the check, scratched the back of his head and said: "Ah Hu, I don't understand, Lao Wang and Ah Yuan are the two of them tossing around in the workshop all day long, welding and modifying, it's all a waste of money, what are you doing so much?" ”

Wang Xiaohu smiled and shook his head: "You, the rats are blind, they are not blindly tossing, they are making a batch of machines for me, and after this batch of machines is built, they can be put into filming, reducing our shooting costs and time, this is called buying expensive and cheap!" ”

"I don't understand anyway!" Yuan Biao blinked his confused eyes.

"Alright, you go to bed early." Wang Xiaohu pushed him out of the study and sat on the sofa for a while, not knowing what to do. By the way, I haven't told Ah Zhi that I'm going to go to Yuben, thinking of this, Wang Xiaohu picked up the phone and dialed Zhao Yazhi.

"Hey, I'm looking for Ah Zhi, ah, it's my aunt, hello, I haven't rested so late, hehe, Ah Zhi will come back tomorrow morning? Oh okay, it's okay, it's okay, you can rest. Wang Xiaohu hung up the phone and breathed a long sigh of relief, Ah Zhi, who is in love, will only come back tomorrow, hey! I haven't seen this girl for a few days, so I miss her.
