After entering June, the weather in Hong Kong has become very bad, every day is rainy and rainy, which makes people feel extremely depressed and irritable, Bruce Lee is one of them, because his "Warrior" was forced to terminate less than three days after filming started, and Golden Harvest's set is now watery and inaccessible, and he has to stay at home depressed. 【】

However, Wang Xiaohu has not been idle in the past few days, after the studio of Golden Harvest was flooded, he directly moved the editing office back to his home, anyway, "Ip Man" has been completed, and the rest is indoor work, and completing the first cut has become his top priority. Yuan Heping, Sammo Hung and others will also come over to help every once in a while, and learned a lot of knowledge about action movie editing from Wang Xiaohu.

"In a few days, arrange for the main actors to come over to record, hey, why don't you popularize the live recording system in Hong Kong, it's too troublesome to record in the later stage!" Wang Xiaohu sighed when he thought of the tedious situation of each recording.

Yuan Heping explained: "Because most Hong Kong people are not very proficient in speaking Chinese, they used to shoot Cantonese films, and besides, you don't know that an actor or dragon set has to shoot in several sets every day, and if the live recording effect is not good, you have to start again, affecting the shooting progress, and you haven't done anything!" ”

Wang Xiaohu also noticed that this kind of filming system has been going on in Hong Kong for several years, and he still wants to wait for the future films to be filmed by live recording, but he loses interest when he thinks about the rudimentary recording equipment.

"Ah Hu, in fact, there are some things I've always wanted to ask you, but I was embarrassed to ask when I was shooting." Sammo Hung dragged a chair and sat next to Wang Xiaohu and said: "I feel that the Ip Man you filmed this time is a little too serious, and there are a lot of profound things mixed in it, which makes people feel very stuffy." ”

Wang Xiaohu frowned, he still taught them the word muffled, and he didn't expect them to have such thoughts after filming. "Tell me more about the situation."

Sammo Hung scratched his head and said: "How to say it, you are very good at the design of the martial arts scenes, the whole action is very capable and real, and now the plot after the initial cut is also very compact and smooth, but the ideas you bring out through the plot and kung fu are a little difficult to understand, hey, Ip Man is a generation of grandmasters, Zhou Qingquan is a generation of Confucian businessmen, why do I feel that there is a kind of Confucianism here?" ”

"Haha! I didn't expect Senior Brother Sanmao to really guess this correctly this time, yes, I thought about this issue when I was writing the script, just like my filming of "Righteous Heroes", I always have to leave some scenes of reflection for the audience, you see Brother Xiaolong is not using his films to promote Jeet Kune Do culture. ”

"First of all, our Chinese are a very restrained nation, a very reserved nation, the real Ip Man is a generation of grandmasters, and the measure of a generation of grandmasters is his martial arts cultivation and popularity, so in order to express this thought, I set seven small details on the script, and these seven details are explained separately through martial arts scenes."

When Sammo Hung and the others heard this, they immediately sat up straight and pricked up their ears to listen. Wang Xiaohu continued: "The issue of face is something that everyone has to take into account, and studying martial arts behind closed doors is to consider their face, and Ip Man reflects his introversion in such a form, neither looking very arrogant, nor letting Master Liao lose face." And Master Liao knew that he had lost, but for the sake of face, he asked Sha Danyuan to comment, saying that Sha Danyuan was bad for his reputation, and these episodes were also criticizing the pedantry of Confucianism when they set off Ip Man."

"If you savor the script carefully, you can still find the details of Confucianism, such as moderation, forbearance, benevolence, do not do to others what you do not want to do to yourself, and leave room for others."

"Well, Ah Hu said this, I really recalled, Ip Man asked the people in the factory to learn Wing Chun, and they told Jinshan in this way to find "do unto others what you don't want to do to yourself", I feel very boiling at that scene, I will feel very relieved, Ip Man is one against ten, punching fiercely, and the scene of killing moves everywhere makes my patriotic enthusiasm at that moment boiling" Li Shaonan, the nominal apprentice, also interjected at this time.

After Li Shaonan finished speaking, he was still a little uncertain, pursed his mouth and peeked at the master, hoping to get the master's answer.

Wang Xiaohu nodded and said: "Shaonan's analysis this time is very correct, it seems that you have made a lot of progress on the set in the past few days, being able to observe these small details shows that you are attentive, continue to maintain this spirit, you will succeed sooner or later!" ”

"Master, are you telling the truth?" Li Shaonan was immediately excited when he heard this, put his hand on his chest and asked.

"Look at your virtue, if I were your master, I would have fired you a long time ago, how can I get carried away as soon as I get praised!" Sammo Hung pouted and said unhappily, because he felt that he had also noticed these things, but he was robbed of white, and he was hateful!

"Hehe, Senior Brother Sanmao, don't scare away my apprentice, you must know that he is my successor!"

When Li Shaonan heard that his master had emboldened him, he immediately straightened his spine and grimaced Sammo Hung with his back. Sammo Hung immediately laughed and scolded and beat him.

Wang Xiaohu looked at them and shook his head, it is also a good way to find a reason to vent in this weather

On June 16, 1972, the rain in Hong Kong did not recede but increased, in just three days, the total rainfall in Hong Kong reached 652.3 mm, and at 12:45 noon on June 18, a filled hillside in Jiuliao (now Kwun Tong Tsui Ping Road) was filled with soil due to insufficient compaction and poor drainage. Under the continuous heavy rain, the fill slid sharply under the condition of moisture saturation, and tons of landslide quickly covered the Sau Mau Ping resettlement area below the hillside, submerging more than 70 wooden houses in the area and burying 71 people alive. The Fire Services Department, Civil Aid Service, Auxiliary Medical Service, British Garrison and Hong Kong Scouts took part in the rescue and searched for the dead and wounded.

Major newspapers in Hong Kong have reported this tragic situation, and one of them is particularly sad, saying that rescuers found a family of six hugging each other when digging up a house, and the information on the photo made everyone's hearts tug up, and they cursed God for being unfair in their hearts.

At about 8 p.m., a heavily weathered igneous rock hillside slid under the continuous heavy rain, first washing away a two-storey bungalow on Po Shan Road, and collapsing a six-storey building on Conduit Road. The building immediately snapped and collapsed, affecting King Cui Yuen at the foot of the hillside, and the top four floors of the building were destroyed.

In the building, most of the occupants failed to escape in time and were buried under the rubble. The British troops stationed in Hong Kong were summoned to the scene for disaster relief and were later handed over to firefighters to take over. After digging around the clock, search and rescue personnel successfully rescued many survivors, including former ** official Lie Hsien Lun, who was rescued by firefighters following his radio singing. A total of 67 people were killed in the incident at Asahi Road.

After the 618 flood, Wang Xiaohu immediately notified all the crew members to gather urgently, and at the same time called Bruce Lee, who was depressed at home, over, after everyone met, Wang Xiaohu said: "I believe everyone has heard about the flood in the past few days, and now I have an idea, that is, to use your appeal Brother Xiaolong, to advocate all Hong Kong artists to carry out disaster relief donation activities and pray for the victims." ”

"Of course, I am not doing this to take advantage of this opportunity to promote our film, because it is very inhumane to do so, I just appeal to those high-income earners, especially famous movie stars, Cantonese opera celebrities, singers, etc., through this method, not to only care about making money all day long, and when Hong Kong citizens encounter disasters, they should also show their selflessness and morality on the screen!"

After listening to this, Bruce Lee immediately clapped his hands and passed, "Okay, Xiaohu, what you said is very correct, in times of peace, Hong Kong citizens are our food and clothing parents, and our God, and now it is natural for us to report on the suffering, I will personally donate 200,000 Hong Kong dollars, and everyone will do their best to help!" ”

Wang Xiaohu raised his hand and said, "I will also donate 200,000 yuan." ”

"I'm fifty thousand!" Sammo Hung raised his hand.

"I'm 10,000!"

"I, Ah Biao, can you lend me 5,000 yuan first?" Li Shaonan whispered to Ah Biao. Yuan Biao shook his head and said, "What to borrow, wouldn't it be OK for the two of us to jointly donate 10,000 yuan together?" ”

Later, everyone announced their donation amounts, although the total number of people in Concord Film Company was less than 60 people, the amount of donations reached an astonishing 600,000 Hong Kong dollars.

"Senior Brother Sanmao, in a few days, you will use the name of the Dragon and Tiger Martial Arts Union to advocate the donation of the whole Hong Kong Dragon and Tiger Martial Artists, remember the important point, those affected Dragon and Tiger Martial Arts do not need to donate, on the contrary, we will donate internally to help them, and this money is no longer in the ranks of donations!" Wang Xiaohu thought for a moment and then continued: "Also, the first announcement is made to the Dragon and Tiger Martial Arts who have registered for the club, I will hold a disaster relief charity performance at the entrance of the Kowloon Hotel the day after tomorrow, Brother Xiaolong, you must also be present to participate, we must prepare a sum of money to hand over to the Hong Kong political axe as soon as possible!" ”

Bruce Lee nodded heavily and said, "Don't worry, I can still understand your feelings, and you can dispatch as you like when the time comes!" ”

Wang Xiaohu sighed and said: "In short, we must be the first group to take action, I think in a few days, Uncle Shao's wireless TVB TV station will come to us to discuss participating in the disaster relief performance organized by them."
