039 Gadgets, big uses
Wang Xiaohu laughed and began to explain the meaning of power powder to Bruce Lee: "The full English name of power is power-powder. ”
Bruce Lee frowned and asked, "Power powder?" ”
Wang Xiaohu said: "Yes, literally translated as power powder, it is one of the commonly used props in movie action design. ”
"Why haven't I heard of it?" Bruce Lee spread out his hands and said a little confused: "Is it a new prop?" It seems that Hollywood does not have such props. ”
Wang Xiaohu's heart is not yet popular, in this era, don't say Hollywood, even Hong Kong has few directors or martial arts instructors who know this kind of prop, but it is completely conceivable that when they use this kind of prop in "Jingwumen", many directors in Hong Kong will imitate themselves.
Is this an innovation? Contribute to the development of Hong Kong's film industry? Wang Xiaohu said so in his heart.
After sorting out his thoughts, Wang Xiaohu said: "Power powder, how to say it, just like the familiar Viva, trampoline, and tomato juice, are all auxiliary props, and the main role of power powder is to highlight the hitting strength and make the action itself more visual." ”
"You're saying this kind of powder will make the audience look powerful?" Bruce Lee asked uncertainly.
Wang Xiaohu nodded and said: "Yes, this kind of gadget is very practical, even if an actor who doesn't know martial arts uses it and throws a punch and kick, it will make people feel very powerful!" It is the first choice for rendering the atmosphere of real fighting. ”
"Sounds good, we can take advantage of it." Bruce Lee was a little impulsed by what he said, in fact, since the beginning of filming, he will accept most of Wang Xiaohu's suggestions.
"Huh." Wang Xiaohu said with a smile: "Power fans can also solve the problems that have always bothered you." ”
"What's the problem?" Bruce Lee asked blankly.
Wang Xiaohu said mysteriously: "You'll know later." ”
When the prop master carried a box of talcum powder to the set, Wang Xiaohu smeared a layer on his cuffs, and then made a punching action, and the dust flew in an instant.
"Wow, the camera sense is very good, you obviously don't use much strength, but it makes people feel a lot of power." Bruce Lee clapped his hands and shouted, showing great interest in this gadget called power powder: "In the future, if you have this kind of thing, you won't have to toss yourself very tired."
"Yes." Wang Xiaohu said with a smile: "This is a good way to be lazy, but there are many other wonderful uses for it." ”
Bruce Lee rubbed his hands and said a little impatiently: "Hey, hurry up and say it, I want to know what other magic it does!" ”
At this time, everyone on the set came around, looking at the new things that Wang Xiaohu and Bruce Lee were doing in the field.
Wang Xiaohu bent down and grabbed a handful of power fans, beckoned to Yuan Biao and said, "Ah Biao, come here." ”
Yuan Biao touched the back of his head and walked over and said, "What are you doing?" But he saw Wang Xiaohu sprinkle some on his arms and chest, "Ah Hu, is this thing lime powder, it's very uncomfortable to accidentally get it in your eyes!" ”
"Don't worry, the main ingredient of this kind of thing is talcum powder, which is harmless to the skin, as long as you pay attention, you won't get it in your eyes." Wang Xiaohu explained as he spoke.
"That's it!" Wang Xiaohu clapped his palms and said to Yuan Biao: "Put on a defensive posture, yes, the arm that sprinkled the powder is raised, wait a minute, I will kick your head with a high hook kick, you raise that arm to defend, and then I will take the opportunity to kick your chest." ”
After Wang Xiaohu finished explaining, Yuan Biao nodded to show that he understood, and then Wang Xiaohu said, "Everyone come to see the effect!" ”
As soon as the words fell, Wang Xiaohu's right foot was quickly raised, and everyone felt a strong wind hanging on their faces, and the next moment, Wang Xiaohu's right foot had reached Yuan Biao's arm.
Although he had already said his intention to attack, his movements were still so fast that Yuan Biao hesitated a little before raising his arm to defend.
"It's too fast!" Sammo Hung blinked and said, other people also feel this way, only Bruce Lee nodded and looked at Wang Xiaohu with a smile, this kid has made some progress again.
With a "snap" sound, Yuan Biao's arm blocked Wang Xiaohu's hook kick, and he saw bursts of white dust at the intersection of his fists and feet.
Immediately afterwards, Wang Xiaohu's hook kick turned into a positive kick, and accurately kicked on Yuan Biao's chest, and there was another burst of white dust.
"Ah Biao, are you okay?" Sammo Hung and the others hurriedly asked with concern.
Yuan Biao smiled and said: "Haha, you Ah Hu deceived him and kicked me without strength, I don't have anything to do, don't believe you!" After Yuan Biao finished speaking, he turned in circles, showing that he was very healthy.
"How is this possible, I just saw Ah Hu kicking very hard!" Sammo Hung didn't believe it.
Bruce Lee touched his chin, it was obvious that he had understood Wang Xiaohu's intentions, his eyebrows stretched, and he said with a smile on his face: "Ah Hu, I didn't expect you to solve a big problem for me again, this kind of thing sprinkled on the target is definitely a new invention, it doesn't take too much effort, and it can show the real fighting effect, Ah Biao, Ah Lou, I guarantee that you will not be injured by me in the future, because the appearance of this thing has saved you!" ”
Wang Xiaohu understands the reason why Bruce Lee is so happy, because Bruce Lee emphasizes real fights and performances, so in most cases, except for him, the others are basically playing the role of "sandbag" and bearing Bruce Lee's fists and feet, although he controls his strength very well, Sammo Hung and others have also rehearsed many times, but sometimes there will be mistakes, just like Jackie Chan and Yuan Biao have been injured by Brother Xiaolong several times in the past few days, causing Brother Xiaolong to feel very guilty.
"Really?" Jackie Chan touched his swollen face and leaned over and asked.
"Yes, if you don't believe it, you can ask Ah Hu, he came up with this thing!" Bruce Lee said with a smile.
So Wang Xiaohu was surrounded by Jackie Chan and other dragon and tiger martial artists to ask what was going on, Wang Xiaohu waved them to be quiet and said: "Yes, this can reduce the chance of you being injured, but correspondingly, the salary of those who don't suffer from Brother Xiaolong's fists and kicks will also be reduced a lot." ”
"Haha, it's okay, as long as you don't get hurt!" Jackie Chan and other dragon and tiger martial artists laughed, their salaries were much higher than those of other crews, and they wouldn't care about this money.
"Brother Xiaolong, can this kind of gadget be promoted?"
"Absolutely!" The corners of Bruce Lee's mouth curled up and said very happily.
Wang Xiaohu saw that Bruce Lee had agreed, and he was secretly proud in his heart, Bruce Lee left the impression of being a tough guy and a hero in front of outsiders, and he may feel that it is very difficult to deal with him, but he knows that Brother Xiaolong behind the screen is definitely an amiable person, of course, the premise is to follow his temper and surname to communicate, if you want to use tough means to deal with Brother Xiaolong, then the result can only usher in Brother Xiaolong's tougher resistance, don't you see Luo Wei is the most typical example?
Luo Wei does not have a city like Zou Wenhuai, and he is not as familiar with Bruce Lee's temper, and when the two shoot films, they often quarrel over the script and action, Luo Wei uses the director's right to force Bruce Lee to accept his old routine, and as a result, the last two of them are tense and break up unhappily.
And he is with the memory of his previous life, plus familiar with Bruce Lee's surname to contact, to communicate, to persuade Bruce Lee in a consultative tone, in most cases Bruce Lee will agree to his own suggestions, so in the eyes of outsiders, he has become Bruce Lee's behind-the-scenes military advisor, Bruce Lee fully trusts himself, and even obeys his words.
