064 Four scripts

Throughout the Hong Kong martial arts film circle in the early 70s, Bruce Lee's family was dominant, followed by Hu Jinquan and Zhang Che, and these three people depicted the development outline of Hong Kong martial arts films and their brilliant achievements. Among the three, Hu Jinquan's films are romantic, elegant, respectful of historical details and poetic, and Tsui Hark is his best successor, but as far as Wang Xiaohu knows, Tsui Hark is currently studying in the United States and has never appeared in Hong Kong.

Needless to say, although he does not have as high achievements as Hu Jinquan, and his fame (especially international popularity) is not as big as Bruce Lee, but he is an excellent commercial film director in Hong Kong, he has been making contributions to the innovation of Hong Kong martial arts films in obscurity, and now he is no longer lonely, Wang Xiaohu, the youngest and most sensational dark horse, was born, as a young representative of the innovation stream, Wang Xiaohu is not only making progress himself, but also his brothers and sisters are making progress together.

The prosperity and development of Hong Kong films is not done by one person, Wang Xiaohu knows this very well, so he not only did not stop Jackie Chan from signing with Dadi Company, but on the contrary, he encouraged and supported him.

Not only that, but he also encouraged Yuan Hua, Yuan Bin and others to go out and practice the theoretical knowledge they had absorbed during this time, and to find their own creative style.

The seeds have been sown, and whether it can grow into a towering tree is not something that Wang Xiaohu can control, because he knows that after the death of Bruce Lee in his previous life, the market for Hong Kong martial arts kung fu films has also declined rapidly, and no one can shoulder the burden of revitalizing Hong Kong films for a long time.

There is a long way to go, this is Wang Xiaohu's evaluation of the post-Bruce Lee era, as a reborn person, he is very clear about what movies are popular in what time period, some films are not impossible to shoot, but are restricted by Hong Kong's local culture and technology, you can't shoot "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", "Hero" or something blockbuster now, right? Obviously, the current Hong Kong citizens do not understand, let alone computer high-tech and hundreds of millions of funds to complete the operation, and shooting classic kung fu movies at a specific time is the conclusion of Wang Xiaohu's serious thinking.

Jackie Chans may not become famous overnight, but they are now systematically trained in action design, and the rest is only up to personal comprehension and luck.

It can be said that letting his brothers gain a firm foothold in the Hong Kong film industry is also one of his goals after rebirth, and it is also one of the criteria for him to measure whether he has succeeded.

The next morning, when Wang Xiaohu woke up, Jackie Chan had already left, and even the bedding on the bed was taken away, it seems that this guy will not come back if he does not make a career.

In the next few days, Wang Xiaohu has been busy with Bruce Lee's restaurants and specialty stores, and occasionally goes to Mingde Garden to find Bruce Lee to train his body, but every time he goes, Bruce Lee always urges him to hurry up and bring the new script over for review, Wang Xiaohu pointed to his head and said: "In the making, in the making." ”

Today, Wang Xiaohu took a taxi to Mingde Garden with a box of "Nunchuck Technique", and he came to Bruce Lee to ask for an autograph. As soon as I walked into the courtyard, I saw Bruce Lee holding a long stick horizontally to guide Li Guohao to train the flexibility of his legs.

"Hey baby, good kick, good! Next time you can play a little higher! Bruce Lee raised the height of the stick a little more, and shouted with a smile on his face, very happy.

After Xiao Guohao was encouraged, he kicked even harder, and took out the strength to eat milk and kicked it hard, but because of the excessive force, his body was unbalanced, and he lay on the ground with an ouch.

Wang Xiaohu couldn't help laughing when he saw this scene, put the box on the lawn and laughed: "Haha, Brother Xiaolong, are you abusing children, in the United States, this is going to be a lawsuit!" ”

"Hell!" Bruce Lee scolded with a smile: "Brandon (Li Guohao's English name) is my son, how I educate him is my business, where did you come out of here to point fingers." ”

"Uncle Little Tiger." Six-year-old Li Guohao got up from the ground, ran to Wang Xiaohu's side in a few steps, hugged his thighs and raised his head and said, "When will Uncle Xiaohu cook Chinese food for me?" Brandon hadn't eaten it in a long time. ”

For Bruce Lee's beloved son Li Guohao, Wang Xiaohu had an inexplicable doting, he squatted down and stroked Li Guohao's hair with his hand and said: "Let me think about it, well, in a few days it will be February 1st, and it will also be our Brandon's seven-year-old birthday, how about Uncle Xiaohu cook you a table of Lu dishes that day?" ”

"Really, that's amazing! I can taste the delicious food made by Uncle Xiaohu again, this is definitely good news, I went to tell Xianneng (Li Xiangning's English name Shannon does not know how to translate in Chinese, ask Da Neng to inform), she will be happy! Li Guohao clapped his hands excitedly, and rushed out of the lawn and ran into the house.

"Hehe, what an easy little guy!" Wang Xiaohu said with a smile.

Bruce Lee on the side didn't give him a good look, "Hey, man, you have interrupted my son's enlightenment education now, he is now more interested in the food you make than I do, you are depriving me of my father's love for my son!" ”

"Uh, it's not that serious, is it?" Wang Xiaohu floated a few small black crows on his forehead, and then he shrugged his shoulders and said, "Okay, but you should seriously reflect on it, Brand is only six years old, his body is still in a state of development, it is a good time to enjoy his childhood, and you, the father, forcibly dragged him here to train his body."

Wang Xiaohu said that he suddenly stopped here, because he suddenly remembered the future fate of Li Guohao, this child who is currently only six years old is the son of Bruce Lee, and two years later, with the death of his father, the little guy was greatly stimulated by various versions and gossip of his father's death, he has a strange temper, irritable, and obedient, and is regarded as an alternative by his classmates and friends, but in the end he still chose a correct life path, he inherited his father's mantle, in the spiritual and spiritual world, He and his father have always maintained the most direct communication and communication. In the fields of boxing, kung fu and film acting, he has begun to make a name for himself and talent.

But the good times didn't last long, just when Li Guohao regarded the $14 million "Crow" as a breakthrough in his acting career and revived the reputation of the Li family, he was filming a scene in the film "The Crow", and the character he played was about to be shot and killed, the day before the props team accidentally loaded a real bullet into the chamber, and the next day another props team thought it was an empty gun, and when the actor pulled the trigger, the 28-year-old Li Guohao died on the spot. Like his father, he is about to become popular

Wang Xiaohu felt in a terrible mood when he thought of this, he couldn't understand what forces the Li family had offended, so that both generations of father and son had to pay for it with blood, could it really be the fate of the top ten cursed families summarized by netizens in his previous life? Wang Xiaohu absolutely does not believe in this kind of superstitious thinking, and all of this needs him to uncover the mystery.

At this moment, he is facing Bruce Lee's roar.

"Damn, you can find a whole bunch of strong words every time!" Bruce Lee sighed through his nose and said, "Say, tell me what you mean." ”

Wang Xiaohu, who pulled his thoughts back from his memories to reality, shook his head and sighed, it took a long time for him to remember the purpose of this trip, as for the future tragedy, he will do his best to reverse it, now, well, it is to persuade Bruce Lee to sign this box of "Nunchuck Technique".

Wang Xiaohu took out a copy of "Nunchuck Technique" from the box and threw it over, Bruce Lee took it easily, and then frowned and flipped the pages: "What are you doing with this thing for me?" ”

"Autographs, your fans need your autograph, let them scream, kiss when they see your autograph, and then treat the book as their holy thing." Wang Xiaohu said lightly.

"Oh no, I don't want this, you know what I need is a new script." Bruce Lee angrily threw the book on the ground, pointed at Wang Xiaohu and said, "And you, you waste your time on this kind of garbage book, instead of the script to earn you fame and money, I am so disappointed." ”

"Okay, okay, you sign this pile of things first, and remember to write some words of blessing on those beautifully packaged books, that will be more precious! I can sell it for a good price. ”

“fake!” Bruce Lee scolded, then turned his head and walked away angrily, Wang Xiaohu smiled bitterly and picked up the box of books and followed him and said: "Bruce, don't worry, in fact, I have four new scripts on hand, but I'm not sure which one is better to start shooting, and you are urging me every day, which gives me a headache now." ”

After entering the living room, Bruce Lee sat on the sofa, raised his eyes and looked at Wang Xiaohu listlessly and said: "Please, I have nothing to do for 20 days now, I can't go to the streets, I can't go to Jiahe, there are crazy fans everywhere, I'm afraid I'm going crazy if I have nothing to do." ”

"So you have to find something for me to do, even if it's not filming, it's okay for me to sift through the script." Bruce Lee added.

Wang Xiaohu sighed, it seems that this oriental dragon is really tired of this boring life, which is not unrelated to his current career and life, the current Bruce Lee is like Zhongtian, "Tangshan Big Brother" paved the way for his career, and "Jingwumen" directly made him a god, he has stood at the top of this field, he is lonely, lonely, he lives with his family every day in addition to practicing kung fu, this kind of saying is simply torment for him who is lively and active.

“ok。” Wang Xiaohu nodded, spread his hands to Bruce Lee and said: "Let me tell you the general situation of the four scripts first, the first is the sequel to "Jingwumen", which is about Chen Zhen disappeared after escaping under the gun in the patrol room, he went to the battlefield to work as a Chinese laborer, and returned to Shanghai seven years later, under the pseudonym Qi Tianyuan, and met Liu Ye, the big owner of the Casablanca nightclub, and the two fell in love. It turned out that Chen Zhen was ordered to infiltrate Casablanca to collect intelligence, but this time he unexpectedly met the popular dancing girl Kiki, and Chen Zhen discovered that the glamorous and moving Kiki concealed her true identity"

"No, no, this script is not to my taste, you better change to the next one." Bruce Lee interrupted.

Wang Xiaohu was stunned, the script he just said was "Jingwu Fengyun" that he saw in his previous life, which was a classic created by super dragon fan Donnie Yen in 2010, but Wang Xiaohu was reborn after seeing the release of this film, and only got a glimpse of it through some trailers and plot revelations, which has to be said to be a pity.

And the black hero in the film is to commemorate Bruce Lee's "The Green Hornet" filmed in Hollywood, I can't imagine that the film that gathers so many Bruce Lee elements was vetoed by Bruce Lee, which is simply too unexpected.

"The things in the script are too complicated, and the complexity is a headache." Bruce Lee rubbed his temples and said: "Moreover, don't you think it's redundant to let Chen Zhen break into the Hongkou Dojo again, what will the audience think, they will say that we are poor in donkey skills, that we are gnawing on the old book, I can't shoot such a film." ”

"I'll you!" Wang Xiaohu touched his nose and secretly scolded himself for being an idiot, who said it wasn't, "Jingwumen" has just been released, if you shoot the same thing again, you will definitely be sprayed to death, you blame yourself for thinking about it and not thinking about the consequences, and happily take this thing like a treasure to Bruce Lee, you deserve it!

"Maybe you're right!" Wang Xiaohu moved his butt and said: "Then let's talk about the second script, this story is generally related to your life experience, well, it is about Tang Long, a local bun from the countryside of Hong Kong, who was entrusted by his uncle to go to Rome to assist the restaurant manager Chen Qinghua."

Bruce Lee stopped frowning this time, he held his chin and listened carefully to the story told by Wang Xiaohu, it can be said that from the beginning of this story, he deeply liked the character of Tang Long.

"Tang Long passed the test, and finally fought the American Karate Championship at the Colosseum with the gangsters at a high price, and won a big victory, and finally left under the reluctant gaze of his cousin Chen Qinghua"

Wang Xiaohu spent about 20 minutes to finish the film, and when it comes to the highlights, he will stand up and make a few strokes, especially in the battle in the Colosseum, he almost rehearsed the entire fight scene, this film is too familiar to him, whether it is the plot or the martial arts action can be called a classic of the Bruce Lee era, and its representative significance is also extraordinary.

When Wang Xiaohu stopped, he was already sweating, and he gasped slightly and said to Bruce Lee: "I said Brother Xiaolong, you should be satisfied with this script, right?" ”

"Papa~~" Bruce Lee got up from the sofa with a smile and applauded and said: "Satisfied, I'm so satisfied, this script is much better than the previous one, hurry up and tell me, what's the name of this script?" ”

""Raptors Across the River"" Wang Xiaohu gave the name of the film.

"Wow, the dragon crosses the river, Tang Long, Bruce Lee, haha, I really have a relationship with the dragon." Bruce Lee hugged Wang Xiaohu, and kissed him fiercely after being excited: "Thank you for injecting vitality into me again, I feel full of strength now!" ”

Wang Xiaohu was a little uncomfortable being kissed by a big man, even though he was Bruce Lee, he struggled to break free and said, "Uh, don't you want to listen to the remaining two scripts?" ”

"Nope." Bruce Lee shook his head and said: "It's enough to have this one script, as for the remaining two scripts, you better hide them first, otherwise I will be even more impatient, okay, you hurry home now to write this script, and then go and design the action." ”

"What about you?" Wang Xiaohu asked.

Bruce Lee sat on the sofa from the beginning, took out a random book from the box and said: "And I, I'm going to waste a whole day concentrating on these damn books, oh my God, why are there so many books, do you want to exhaust me!" ”

"Hahaha, okay, you sign slowly, I'll go back to the script!" Wang Xiaohu walked out of the living room with a smile.

---Sanjiang, well, we're going to start breaking out, starting in the early hours of the morning.
