It was a coincidence that Sister Lu had her own team.
She opened a small restaurant in Yunze Film and Television City, but because she was beautiful and knew how to do favors, she became familiar with many crews.
Many extras took orders from her, and Sister Lu would also help some acquaintances.
Gradually, more and more people gathered, and there were many independent martial artists from all over the country, and a few came from Shaolin Temple.
This group of people established the first team of Lu's class.
The most powerful kung fu was Master Yanhui from Shaolin Temple, whose common name was Li Shaoqiang, also known as Guangtou Qiang.
Xia Yuan called him Brother Qiang.
The number of people in this team gradually increased, and now there are about 50 people. Basically, when the crew needs people, they will first select them from Lu's class.
"It seems that some crews are still recruiting martial artists recently, but they are just some minor roles without lines. I can ask for you."
Sister Lu is a typical person with a sharp tongue but a soft heart. Although she dislikes Xia Yuan in every way, she still helps him when she needs to.
There are many crews in Yunze Film and Television City, and there are even more actors who want to become famous overnight. Just like Xia Yuan himself said, if you are not famous and don't work hard, the roles will be taken away in two days, and you will have no chance.
Fortunately, there is a crew from Hong Kong recently to shoot a historical kung fu film. The name of this film is "Ye Wen", which is a legendary story adapted from the life story of Bruce Lee's master,Ye Wen, the master of Yong Chun.
This drama is mainly about fighting scenes, which requires a large number of martial artists.
In addition to the crew's own team, some external editors are also needed to supplement.
(Solemn statement: Except for real historical figures, the rest of this book is fictional. It does not involve any real people and places, and does not reflect any reality. Any similarities are purely coincidental.)
"Mr. Xiong, please help see if this young man can play a role. He has a good foundation and is very hardworking."
Lu Xinyan is a person with some reputation in Yunze Film and Television City. She has a certain relationship with many crews and stars, so she quickly helped Xia Yuan find Yuan Xiong, the martial arts instructor of the Ip Man crew.
The chief action director of Ye Wen this time is Hong Long, the chief martial arts instructor is Yuan Xiong, and there are about 17 or 18 people in charge of the fighting scenes, including other martial arts instructors.
Yuan Xiong is now in his 50s, with gray hair. He is a senior martial arts instructor. Like Hong Long, he was once a popular figure in kung fu movies. It's just that in the past 20 years, the decline of Hong Kong movies has forced them to go north and transform and cooperate with the mainland to make movies.
Affected by the domestic market and foreign products, the film and television industry is now diversified, younger, and more interesting...
The previous rigid way of attracting people with solid kung fu routines is no longer effective.
This movie "Ye Wen" can be said to be the last fight of Hong Kong martial arts filmmakers.
After listening to Lu Xinyan's explanation of the purpose, Mr. Xiong did not speak, but just looked up and looked at Xia Yuan silently.
In terms of appearance, Xia Yuan, a young man with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, looks like a good seedling.
However, as an action director, Yuan Xiong has to be responsible for the quality of the film, and he dare not rashly use a newcomer who does not know his foundation.
As if seeing through his thoughts, Lu Xinyan smiled and said quickly: "Mr. Xiong, we have cooperated more than once or twice. The important thing is that we both get what we need. If you really need someone, you might as well take a look at the person I recommend to you and see if he can be used.
It doesn't matter if he can't be used. It can only be said that he really doesn't have the ability."
After listening to Lu Xinyan's words, Mr. Xiong nodded and said to Xia Yuan in not very standard Mandarin, "What can you do? Can you fight? Show us your skills first."
The backbone of the crew is basically from Hong Kong, and they are also very old, almost all over 40 years old.
To be honest, they are also facing a situation where the martial arts industry is in a period of transition. The plot needs some young people to support the scene. Xia Yuan has a good physique, and the main thing is to see if he has the corresponding ability.
Xia Yuan nodded, clasped his fists to him, and then performed a set of long fist on the spot.
He had signed up for a class in high school before. At that time, his parents were still alive, and he only learned it as a hobby to strengthen his body and a bonus for performance. Later, his parents passed away, and Xia Yuan got into this industry and it really came in handy.
Later, he joined the Lu family and learned the authentic Shaolin Changquan from Brother Qiang, which made him a little better.
Changquan is mainly based on northern boxing, with a stretching posture, flexible movements, fast and powerful, and a distinct rhythm.
After Xia Yuan finished a set, his movements were smooth and powerful, which made Xiong Ye's eyes light up.
In non-staff terms, this person is already very good.
Even some old people in the Hong family may not be able to fight so beautifully.
"The Shaolin Changquan you just performed was not satisfactory, and the difficulty was not high. Can you do a more difficult one?"
Xiong Ye made a higher request.
Xia Yuan nodded and saluted with his fists.
He turned over, soared more than three meters high, and turned sideways three times in the air and landed steadily on the ground.
This scared Xiong Ye and Sister Lu.
Not only were they shocked, but even Xia Yuan himself found it incredible.
The NBA's top jump is only about 1.2 meters off the ground, plus a height of more than 3 meters.
Xia Yuan's net height is less than 1.8 meters, almost as tall as a person.
The key is that he can also do continuous movements in the air and roll to the ground, and his movements are light, like a leaf.
When his feet landed on the ground, Xia Yuan himself realized what happened.
According to his level before the car accident, it was impossible to complete such a difficult somersault.
This is obviously affected by the true blood of the vampires.
"It's okay, let him come, sign the contract first."
