Chapter 342: He is really good at fighting
Kung Fu is the essence of "Ip Man".
As a movie named after a martial artist, his kung fu fighting scenes are the essential essence of the movie.
When the filming of the movie just started, it was a martial arts scene.
A fighting scene between Wing Chun master Ip Man and Master Liao from other places.
At that time, there was a very important rule for opening a martial arts school in Fushan, and that was that one had to challenge the opponent.
It is also a means of gaining fame.
Master Liao from Tianlu is one of the experts.
He has superb hand skills and is proficient in the "Liao Family Boxing", which is at a certain level in Tianlu City.
He was confident that he could make a name for himself in Foshan City. The actor who played Master Liao was not randomly chosen. He himself was a master of northern boxing. Everyone else was acting as a master, but he was a real master. A true master of boxing. "I'll use 60% of my strength. I'm afraid of hurting the lead actor."
At this time, Chen Zhihui, the actor who played Master Liao, admitted that he would not use his full strength.
He is a boxer and an actor. Being a martial artist is his real identity. "It doesn't matter. Our Li Yun also has a martial artist professional certificate. He is an actor and a martial artist at the same time." Ye Weixin said next to him.
All I can say is that no matter what era it is, having a certificate is very beneficial. "What level?"
“Level 3.”
"I'm a special grade." Chen Zhihui's mouth twitched and he said, "I'm the vice president of the Northern Boxing Association."
"Well, okay."
"Alas, it's a pity that Master Zhen was injured."
Chen Zhihui sighed softly.
Whether as an actor or a martial artist, he would rather have Master Zhen play against him than this young man who looks clean-shaven and gentle? Yes, gentle.
In the play, Ip Man, for now, displays a temperament that is very gentle and gentle, without any murderous intent.
There is not a single bit of the warrior spirit in him.
This is actually one of the advantages in the literary performance of "Ip Man". When there is no fighting, or in other words, in the early stage of the script, he needs to have this kind of temperament.
This kind of calm and non-threatening temperament is just a literary drama for the people in the martial arts group.
What's the use of literary drama?
"Ip Man" is not a literary drama.
You can be arrogant in other movies, but in our martial arts movies, you have to be coiled even if you are a dragon . Literary scenes are not that important.
The charm of the entertainment industry is sometimes like this. Sometimes, even if you don’t have acting skills, you can still achieve results if you have other abilities.
Kung Fu martial arts films are such a category.
Acting skills are not a factor that is taken that seriously.
Actors in literary plays are not that important an element, as long as there is a plot, that's enough.
Including Zhen Zidan and Ye Weixin, what they are more concerned about is whether they can fight, whether they can fight in a good-looking way and with power.
These two points are the only elements they care about the most, and they think they are the most important elements of the movie Ip Man.
It is definitely not an easy task to fight well and have the flavor of Wing Chun, especially Wing Chun Kung Fu.
One minute on stage, ten years of hard work off stage.
For this purpose, Zhen Zidan also thought about how to teach Li Yun and teach him to perform beautiful Wing Chun Kung Fu.
This is option one.
Option 2 is a last resort, which is to use a substitute.
Use actors with experience in Wing Chun as stand-ins.
This seems to be the most reliable solution.
Li Yun is used to perform the Kung Fu scenes, but the Wing Chun scenes are performed by a stunt double.
For example, the scene where he is fighting with Master Liao with his back to the camera.
Just use a substitute to fight.
"Let's start. Let's try a segment first." Zhen Zidan and Yuan Jinbao next to them wanted Li Yun and Chen Zhihui to try a segment first.
Play a paragraph first.
"Chen Zhihui, a Northern Fist fighter."
"Wing Chun Ip Man."
Chen Zhihui was a little confused, maybe he really thought he was Ip Man . Then Li Yun in front of him attacked first.
Very quickly.
It was so fast that Chen Zhihui was caught off guard and took the punch.
I heard that Wing Chun was a style of boxing created by a woman.
It's more about cleverness and softness.
More suitable for women.
More suitable for the weak to defeat the strong.
Chen Zhihui's Northern Fist boxing style focuses more on tempering his own muscles and bones.
Same as looking for Jinshan.
The force is powerful, heavy and strong.
And when the powerful and strong physique is combined with the Wing Chun Kung Fu which is mainly based on soft power.
What kind of changes will there be?
That's what it is.
Physical fitness gained through system points addition.
Master Ye's Kung Fu.
Li Yun performed a set of Wing Chun that was impossible to perform underground.
Wing Chun for men.
Strong and powerful.
Combining hardness and softness.
A third-level martial artist, and the vice president of the Fighting Martial Arts Association.
It's not just a performance, but a performance based on real people and real fighting.
There are certain rules to how much strength you should use and how hard you should punch.
Chen Zhihui only threw six points of punches at the beginning.
Then I suffered a great loss.
He was caught off guard by Li Yun's suppression.
"Stop, stop, stop, I'm not ready yet."
Then something was wrong with Li Yun, and Ye Wen really stopped.
As quick as a rabbit and as quiet as a virgin.
A smile expresses acceptance.
From the ferocious warrior he had just displayed, he returned to the attitude of a leisurely rich young master who was content with his current situation.
One still, the other moving.
All are on display.
It's incredible.
He is the rich young master.
The powerful warrior just now was also him.
"Do you want to try again?" Ye Weixin looked at Chen Zhihui at this time.
The vice president of the Northern Boxing Association quickly shook his head.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6-9!
"No, no, he can fight."
If I hit him again, I would just embarrass myself.
At the beginning, he only exerted 60% of his strength, but later on he had exerted 100%.
I was still beaten so badly that I was at a loss.
You call this third-level martial arts?
"When you are old, you are afraid of the young."
"Indeed." Zhen Zidan and Yuan Jinbao next to him tacitly gave Chen Zhihui face.
This actually didn't come as a surprise to either of them.
After all, they had personally experienced Li Yun's kung fu.
"It's really strange. His kung fu is so powerful, but how come he doesn't have any murderous aura at all? How did he practice it?"
"I would also like to ask this question. Perhaps this is the difference between a genius and an ordinary person."
At this time Zhen Zidan shook his head slightly.
He was not surprised by this result.
He was shocked by this.
What Li Yun used was actually real Wing Chun Kung Fu.
When did he start practicing Wing Chun? How much Kung Fu does he know?
Has he been practicing since he was in his mother's womb? "How amazing!"
The drama group and the martial arts group have always been at odds.
After all, although both are actors, their focus and paths are different.
If there is a conflict, it won't be that serious.
After all, we are all in the same crew, but it is normal to have different focuses.
The movie has its own theme, and Ip Man's theme is Wing Chun Kung Fu.
At this time, in the drama group, Lynn Hung, Lam Ka-tung and others were all shocked.
Li Yun's Kung Fu is so amazing. It is the first time that they have a direct understanding of Li Yun's Kung Fu. This direct and correct understanding makes Li Yun's Kung Fu seem quite powerful.
It turns out he is really that good at fighting.
"That's amazing." Ren Huada watched the scene in front of him with great interest, and saw the real results of a martial arts actor fighting a real martial arts master.
He is the master of martial arts.
He was beaten so badly by the martial arts actors that he was at a loss.
Such an unacceptable result.
An absolutely unexpected result.
"It seems like we are the only ones who may be discriminated against in this movie," Simon Yam joked.
"Discrimination is too harsh," Lynn Hung couldn't help but say, although in traditional martial arts films, the status of actors in charge of the literary parts is indeed not very high.
But Simon Yam is a great movie emperor.
"If that's the case, then why did you come to play in this Ip Man?" Lin Jiadong next to him couldn't help but ask.
Ren Huada is a person who really likes filming.
Especially keen on acting.
He could chat and laugh happily with Tony Leung Ka Fai, but here he complained slightly about his position.
At this time, Ren Huada asked back.
"A great movie emperor? I admit that I have won achievements and awards in the acting industry, and I am happy to receive your praise, but I would like to ask you a question here, is Zhen Zidan a movie emperor?" Ren Huada smiled slightly.
Lynn Hung and Lam Ka-tung both shook their heads. Zhen Zidan could only be considered as a martial arts actor with relatively good acting skills, but he was far from being worthy of the title of Best Actor.
He is not an award-winning actor.
"But the combined salary of the three of us is not as much as Zhen Zidan's, and that's when he doesn't play the leading role. If he plays the leading role instead of being a martial arts instructor, he can get more."
Xiong Dailin was a little stunned.
It seems that I understand one thing.
Net worth has never been absolutely tied to the title of Best Actor or the status of a celebrity.
There is a correlation, but it is not an absolute influence.
The reason why Simon Yam played the role of Ip Man was quite simple and direct, it was just for money.
For the pay.
Isn't the original intention of everyone acting to earn a living? As a movie emperor, I also want to earn a living. It's not too much, right?
I am keen on acting on my own in small art films, but I also need to increase my own value in commercial productions and earn the pay to support my family.
"In the end, literary and artistic works still have to be commercial. Only those who are willing to pay for your works and your acting skills are good actors. If no one is willing to pay for your acting skills, then who are you performing for?"
I didn't expect it.
This great actor actually has such a tacky yet true reason.
Because the movie Ip Man is already considered a mid-level commercial production in the shrinking Hong Kong market.
The pay for action and commercial films is quite generous, unlike art productions, which are well received but not popular. Public opinion is unanimous in their praise, and the box office revenue is 2.5 million.
“If you want to be a real superstar, you have to be liked by most people, not just a few people who admire you.”
At this time, Ren Huada was looking at Ip Man in front of him.
This guy can both fight and act.
It seems that there is this potential.
