Wang Xiaohu accompanied Zhao Yazhi to have a romantic and warm life, and returned to the company the next day to be busy. [Full text reading]

After the company cooperated with Warner Bros. in the United States to shoot "Enter the Dragon", the biggest move was to set up two major teams. In fact, to be precise, there are three major teams: that is, the script mining team, with Li Shaonan as the leader, Huang Baiming, Mai Jia, and Shi Tian as members, mainly in-depth research on the script work of Hong Kong popular films.

The other two major teams are Yuan Heping, Jackie Chan combination, Sammo Hung, Yuan Biao combination. This is the two major combinations formed under Wang Xiaohu's intentional or unintentional division of labor, these two major combinations mainly shoot comedy kung fu films, "Serpentine Trickster" and "The Loser" scripts were created by Wang Xiaohu himself, and in his memory these are also two golden combinations, Yuan Heping and Jackie Chan led the comedy kung fu boom in the eighties, and while becoming popular, his understanding of kung fu films has reached a higher level.

And Sammo Hung also helped his juniors and disciples one after another after he became famous, Yuan Biao was the most successful one who came to the stage, and his cooperation with Sammo Hung "Miscellaneous Boy" and "Loser" once became the blockbuster movies of the year.

From here, you can see that Wang Xiaohu has good intentions, he spent more than a year to promote the Seven Xiaofu brothers from dragon and tiger martial artists to first-line actors, first-class martial arts instructors, and even directors, through various methods to let them get exercise, and now their theoretical knowledge and experience have reached a bottleneck, and he timely let them practice alone. In order to inherit the blank period of the Bruce Lee era.

In fact, Wang Xiaohu himself also has difficulties now, and the money that has been invested in the Dragon and Tiger Martial Arts Union, shooting instrument innovation, "Warriors", and "Enter the Dragon" is no longer a small amount, and the original 40 million Hong Kong dollars are now only more than 10 million, and it is rare to be able to create such a team, and now he has to hold on to this kind of "poverty" for another month, as long as the box office dividends of "Ip Man", "Righteous Hero", and "Raptors Across the River" released overseas are received, he can launch a more crazy expansion plan. And he firmly believes in the truth that the greater the pay, the greater the gain, and believes that at the end of the year, with the simultaneous release of "Warrior" and "Enter the Dragon" in the United States, the 50% box office results will make him unable to close his mouth.

During the lunch break, Wang Xiaohu went to visit Stallone, and found that this wooden guy was not as boring as he imagined, Stallone now has a very full life, receiving various training in the training base every day without worrying about food and clothing, and studying script creation in the rented room at night, it can be said that he is very content, and has not been subjected to the slightest indifference and loneliness, he has now mingled with most of the Hong Kong people on the base, and can even speak a few stiff Cantonese.

"Sylvester, you still have to stay in Hong Kong until mid-December, I still have a lot of things to deal with here, I hope you won't be in a hurry." Wang Xiaohu said with a smile to Stallone, who was frantically punching sandbags.

"Director, I feel that life here is no different, I am full of strength now! In the words of you Chinese: I am now in the stage of raising soldiers. Stallone punched the sandbag away, stopped and wiped his sweat and said, "Director, I feel my fist getting harder and harder, look at this sandbag being hit by me." ”

Wang Xiaohu smiled slightly, put his hand an inch in front of the sandbag and said, "Boxing is a game played by a big guy like you, and I am only suitable for playing such a trick." As he spoke, he listened to the crisp sound of the sandbag making a "pop", and was hit by his fist and flew out, which was farther than Stallone's flying distance, and the shocked Stallone widened his eyes: "Hey, director, how did you do it just now!" I swear that punch was two hundred pounds! ”

"It's just a small skill of carving insects!" Wang Xiaohu shrugged and said, "There are a lot of people like me in China. ”

"The Mysterious Land of the East!" Stallone drew a cross on his chest, ran to the sandbag and tossed like Wang Xiaohu for a long time, and finally Wang Xiaohu told him the basic movement method, and then tossed it as he wanted, as long as he can be interested in this thing, I believe it will not be boring for a while.

"Do more fist push-ups when you're fine, it will make your fists harder and more penetrating, otherwise your fists will be unbearable when you shoot frozen beef!" Wang Xiaohu left the base after throwing down this sentence. What he just said about beating frozen beef is a classic picture in "Rocky", Rocky has no money to hire human flesh sandbags, so he can only compete against frozen beef in the freezer, which is a very bloody picture, Stallone is almost crazy to hit the frozen beef, and he pays the price for the deformation of the hand bones.

As soon as he stepped into the threshold of the company, Wang Xiaohu heard bursts of cheers from inside, and when he went in, he saw that the company's employees were surrounding Bruce Lee, listening to him tell about the Taiwan Golden Horse Awards.

"Guys, that scene is really amazing, I won the award and got hand cramps, do you believe it, take a look at these trophies, this is our Concord company's harvest in the past year: there are Best Script Award, Best Editing Award, Best Background Music Award, Best Drama Award, Best Color Film Art Design Award, oh, and this special award for best skills, hahaha, a total of six awards, do you know, the 10th Golden Horse Awards set up a total of thirteen awards, and we won six of them, half of the gold content! It can be said that there is a total slaughter, and that group of journalists is going crazy. Bruce Lee said as he stood in front of a pile of glittering trophies.

"When I got the first award, I was very excited, I was excited to say a lot when I went up to receive the award, but when the second, second to sixth, I was numb, I just said thank you on stage, and then carried the trophy and went off the stage, which made the host and the guests on the scene very depressed, they wanted me to say a few more words, but I really have nothing to say, if it were you, you must be the same, right?"

"Yes!" The employees of Concord responded loudly, they have joined the company for less than a year, and they have seen the company achieve such brilliant results, how can you make them unhappy, you must know that Concord has won more awards in a year than other companies combined, which makes them more determined to follow the development of the company.

The noun "get hand cramps when you get the award" was learned from Wang Xiaohu's mouth, but at that time, Wang Xiaohu said to Bruce Lee that it seemed to be "counting the money and counting the hand cramps", and it was humorous when Bruce Lee used it to win the award, so Wang Xiaohu clapped his hands and squeezed into the crowd and said loudly: "Brother Xiaolong, you have worked hard, I would like to thank you on behalf of all the employees of the company, you have suffered for us!" ”

"Ha, Xiaohu, didn't you already know this, so you hid at home and didn't get the award." The smile on Bruce Lee's face after seeing him was even more overflowing: "Come and see these trophies, these are all real guys, five of the trophies here are for you, and I only won this special award for the best skill, very good!" ”

The so-called special award for the best skill is estimated to be the best action design award later, and Bruce Lee won this award with "Jingwumen".

Bruce Lee then said excitedly: "Things are not as bad as you think, although the best director, best actor and actress were taken away by others, but "Ip Man" and "Raptors Across the River" were all nominated. ”

"As long as I don't win the prize, I'm not interested!" Wang Xiaohu said these words very badly, which made the employees of the company worship it, "Since you like Brother Xiaolong, this pile of things is given to you, how about making it your birthday gift?" ”

"Haha, really? It was the most meaningful birthday gift I've ever received in my life! Bruce Lee was happy like a child, holding the pile of trophies and kissing them one by one, but in the end he only picked up the special award for his own best skill: "Xiaohu, thank you for letting me try such a wonderful life, this will be the most beautiful memory of my life!" ”

"You're a little sad when you say it, I want to say that we're going to win more awards than that in the future." Wang Xiaohu couldn't stand his brainless sensationalism, so he put on a smiling face and said: "You are tired of Taiwan, and I propose that all the staff go to the restaurant for a party tonight." ”

"Great! I miss the atmosphere of the restaurant, and you should continue to expand the second floor, with the addition of "Warriors" and "Enter the Dragon" signs. ”

"You're right, I'll arrange for Yuanmei to implement it when I go back." Wang Xiaohu said with a smile.

Bruce Lee's 32-year-old life was very simple, just a few good people in the circle sat together, ate the dishes cooked by Wang Xiaohu himself, talked about life and ideals, and then they threw themselves into intense work.

Since the evening of November 30, Wang Xiaohu has been waiting by the telephone, he is waiting for an important call, a phone call that will make him sad and sad! From 7 p.m. to 3 a.m., he sat motionless.

It wasn't until more than 6 o'clock in the morning that the phone rang, Wang Xiaohu calmly picked up the phone, and after listening to it for a while, he hung up the phone with a hum, and then he stood up with a sad face and slowly left the house, and said briefly to Bruce Lee, who was practicing in the morning: "Brother Xiaolong, my old man has passed away, come with me to carry the coffin." ”

Words fall, tears fall.

Bruce Lee stood there in a daze, as if recalling all kinds of past events with Ip Man, and after a long time, he raised his tearful face and asked, "This is the big event you want to talk about, right?" ”

Wang Xiaohu nodded
