Superstars start as villains

Chapter 133 What kind of kung fu star will you be if you get a bruised nose and a swollen face after being hit twice?
"What do you think of him? Can he get up?" At the dining table, Michelle Yeoh looked at Kwan Zhaolong with great interest.

Wrinkle Zhaolong paused for a moment, then shook his head: "It's hard to say."

"Oh?" Michelle Yeoh stared at him suspiciously.

Wrinkle Zhaolong took a sip of the soup, and then said unhurriedly: "You have filmed so many fighting scenes, you should understand that Kung Fu stars not only need to see if they can fight, but the most important thing is to be able to take a beating. Why are you still a kung fu star?"

Michelle Yeoh fell into memory when she heard the words. When she was filming the movie "A Jin's Story", she jumped off a bridge of more than 30 meters and broke her cervical vertebrae. She broke 3 ribs, resulting in serious injuries and almost paralyzed. Kung fu stars are not so good to be of.

After the lunch break, the crew started to get busy again. Yu Rentai shouted under the ring with a loudspeaker: "A Xing, Director Xiong, how are you doing?"

"No problem, you can start shooting anytime." Zhou Xing made an OK gesture.

Yu Rentai nodded, and continued to shout with a loudspeaker: "Let me adjust the lighting, sound effects, and photography first, and if someone goes wrong in the official shooting later, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

It’s not that Yu Rentai is mean, but the shooting of Kung Fu movies must be rigorous. In general drama movies, it’s a big deal for the actors to find new status after NG. However, many actions in Kung Fu movies are dangerous. The actors jumped from a height of tens of meters. , it turned out that due to off-site reasons, the pictures taken could not be used. Isn’t that terrible?

Zhou Xing and Xiong Xinxin are now at an altitude of more than ten meters, and for the sake of natural martial arts movements, they cannot take protective measures. The danger is not low at all, so naturally they must be prepared in advance.

"Fearless, Act 8, Scene 140, action."

In the arena, Zhou Xing and Xiong Xinxin had already set up their stances. Suddenly, Zhou made a move and kicked Xiong Xinxin's chest. Xiong Xinxin blocked the attack with his left and right hands.

Afterwards, Zhou Xing punched Xiong Xinxin directly in the face. Xiong Xinxin still took his time and parried with both hands.

The two of them wrestled with each other. Seeing this, Zhou Xing kicked Xiong Xinxin's right calf with his right foot, but Xiong Xinxin did not move. Instead, he pushed Zhou Xing's right leg away with his right foot. Sweeping legs, sweeping towards Zhou Xing's lower body.

Zhou Xing's footsteps swayed, and he was about to lose his footing. He turned over with a kite, and at the same time kicked his legs half-high to block Xiong Xinxin's pursuit.

Under the arena, the assistant director commanded the group performers to shout for support. Once Zhou Xing took advantage, Huo Yuanjia's apprentices started shouting. Once Xiong Xinxin took advantage, Zhao Jian's apprentices began to show off their power. "Yes, on-site scheduling is proceeding in an orderly manner.

Beside the monitor, Kwan Zhaolong and Michelle Yeoh were also watching closely. The decline of kung fu movies would be a devastating blow to the entire industry. Although they and Zhou Xing were not friends, they also hoped that he could "make it out", otherwise it would be like The status of martial arts actors like them will only get lower and lower in the future.

If an industry wants to prosper, it needs top stars. It is because of the existence of these Kung Fu superstars such as Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, and Li Lianjie that the glory of Kung Fu movies, martial arts instructors, villains, martial artists, big and small martial arts... the whole Practitioners in the industry are all beneficiaries.

Ever since Cheng Long and Li Lianjie went to Hollywood, kung fu movies have gradually declined. In these years, there has never been a kung fu star with absolute box office appeal, so that the entire industry has become dispensable.

Although this section of martial arts was exciting, it was actually not too difficult for Zhou Xing and Xiong Xinxin, but the next section of action was not only difficult, but also quite dangerous.

Yu Rentai's whole body leaned forward slightly, he was even more nervous than the client.

In the arena, although Zhou Xing used a kite to turn over and escape Xiong Xinxin's pursuit, he was actually standing on the edge of the arena, and Xiong Xinxin chased after him with his fists.

Zhou Xing was already cornered, Xiong Xinxin saw this, and once again swept his legs, Zhou Xing was trying to escape at this time, and there was no way to retreat.

However, at this moment, Zhou Xing made a 180-degree turn in the air, not only avoiding Xiong Xinxin's pursuit, but also landed firmly on the ring.

Under the ring, the assistant director immediately made gestures to the group performers who played Huo Yuanjia's apprentice, and the group performers cheered.

In front of the monitor, Yu Rentai finally breathed a sigh of relief. This action is considered difficult even on flat ground, let alone on the edge of a ring that is more than ten meters high. If there is a little accident, falling down is not a joke. of.

The expression on Wrinkle Zhaolong's face became a little serious at the moment. This action was mostly gimmicky and not practical, but kung fu stars, don't they just want to look good?Judging from Zhou Xing's ability to complete this set of movements, he does have the potential to become a kung fu superstar, not to mention his appearance and temperament, which are all top choices.

After watching this scene, Michelle Yeoh couldn't help but shine in her eyes. I don't talk about professionalism, but from the audience's point of view, Zhou Xing's set of movements is stretched and magnificent, giving people a very comfortable visual enjoyment, especially for female audiences. Speaking of him, the turning action just now was really cool.

"Crack." This shot was already perfect, and Yu Rentai didn't even have the idea of ​​taking a second shot.

Zhou Xing and Xiong Xinxin also took advantage of this opportunity to ask the staff below to bring up water. When filming a fight scene on such a high stage, the body will instinctively produce a stress response and speed up metabolism. sweat.

"The next move, or hang a wire rope, it's too dangerous." Xiong Xinxin took a sip of water, still worried.

Zhou Xing shook his head resolutely: "Brother, we tried it below. There is a steel wire rope hanging around the waist. If it is tightened, it will be unnatural to move. If it is not tightened, if it really falls, it will become a reminder for the safety rope. rope."

"But." How could Xiong Xinxin not know this truth, but he was still worried.

Zhou Xing persuaded with a smile: "Senior brother, it's only more than ten meters away. Don't you have the camera that you fell down again? Even if you do fall, I will immediately make self-rescue actions. If you don't fall to your death, don't worry. "

Xiong Xinxin also knows that his junior brother is desperate, so he can't persuade him any more. He can only hope that the shooting will be as smooth as this shot later, in one shot.

After resting for about a quarter of an hour, the crew started filming again.

Xiong Xinxin gained momentum and attacked again. His boxing style is mainly fierce, and boxing method is the main offensive method. Unable to break through Xiong Xinxin's defense.

Instead, he was forced back again and again by his powerful moves, and although Xiong Xinxin didn't have many kicks, he always caught him by surprise. When Zhou Xing punched him, he blocked him and kicked Zhou Xing's chin with his toes at the same time. Xing could only bow and half kneel to block the fatal blow with both hands.

However, Xiong Xinxin made another sweeping move with great force.

In front of the monitor, Michelle Yeoh and Wrinkle Zhaolong became nervous. The next move was even more difficult than the 180-degree turn over just now. When Xiong Xinxin designed this set of moves before, Wrinkle Zhaolong suspected that Zhou Xing would not be able to do it at all. I couldn't finish it, but when I practiced later, Zhou Xing actually finished it.

However, in Kwan Zhaolong's view, the audience and the audience are completely different things. People on the flat ground have a sense of security, but in the sky, even veteran martial artists who have been martial artists for many years dare not say that they have nothing to do. Psychological burden, to put it bluntly, people are afraid of death, and the fear of the unknown is the most difficult state of mind to overcome.

At this moment, in order to avoid Xiong Xinxin's sweeping legs, Zhou Xing turned back and jumped up again, and then supported his hands on the edge of the high platform, forming a line in the form of push-ups.

However, just when Xiong Xinxin rejoiced that this set of difficult movements had been completed, suddenly, Zhou Xing's figure flickered, and it turned out that he turned a little backward, and half of his hands were not on the high platform, but were holding on to the wooden plank of the high platform. How can he support it with his weight?
"Ah~~~"

The group performers under the ring suddenly screamed, only to see that Zhou Xing had already fallen from the high stage.

Yu Rentai in front of the monitor was completely dazed, Kwan Zhaolong stood up almost subconsciously, Michelle Yeoh's eyes widened, and she didn't even have time to react.

However, at this moment, in mid-air, Zhou Xing also knew that something was wrong. Suddenly, a flash of light flashed from the corner of his eye, and he forcibly turned sideways in mid-air. At the very moment, he grabbed a hemp rope with both hands.

However, under the huge inertia, he couldn't stabilize his figure, so he could only do his best to slow down the falling speed.

"boom"

There was a muffled sound, as if it fell on the hearts of everyone present, and Zhou Xing fell to the ground.

"Hurry up, arrange for a car to be taken to the hospital." Yu Rentai only reacted at this time, and rushed to Zhou Xing immediately.

Wrinkle Zhaolong also hurriedly shouted: "Don't squeeze them all, spread them out and let the air circulate."

Xiong Xinxin also hurriedly stepped on the wooden stake and jumped down almost five meters down.

"Ah Xing, how are you doing?"

In fact, Zhou Xing was already ready when he was about to reach the ground, and his muscles were tense, thanks to the effect of his muscles controlling the fruit, but even so, he was stunned the moment he landed. The whole brain went blank.

"Ahem, senior brother Xiong, stop shaking, my bones have been shaken to pieces by you." Just as the crew medical staff was about to carry Zhou Xing into the car, he finally recovered.

Seeing this, Xiong Xinxin breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he was still awake, but hearing that he was still in the mood to make jokes, he couldn't help but smiled wryly and said, "It's already this time, so stop joking and save yourself some effort."

Only then did Zhou Xing feel sore muscles all over his body, and he couldn't help but feel a little scared. Yu Rentai couldn't help but send him to the hospital for examination.

When something like this happened, the entire crew was shrouded in a low air pressure. Not long after the filming started, the male lead was injured and hospitalized. If it was okay for a short time, other scenes could be shot first, but once it was more than a month, things would go wrong. It's hard to say, whether the budget can withstand it is a problem.
