Chapter 825 The dragon and the tiger are in twilight

The first story of the script "Xiu Chun Dao" still needs to be revised.

This is the view of Xu Xin and Xu Haofeng.

However, this story belongs to Lu Yang, and Xu Xin did not ask Lu Yang to help him create it, so he definitely couldn't just say "This story doesn't work, change it."

He just summarized his and Xu Haofeng's opinions into a document and sent it to the other party.

Then I replied using WeChat:

“I’ve sent you my comments on the revision of the prequel story. I haven’t read the subsequent story yet. I’ll get back to you after I finish reading it.”

And Lu Yang responded very quickly:

"Copy that, Director Xu, thank you for your hard work."

Putting down the phone, Xu Xin touched his belly and said to Xu Haofeng:

"Let's go? Let's go eat."

…

There are actually many delicious places to eat in the tea restaurants in Xiangjiang.

Although Xu Xin doesn't know much about Xiangjiang, the fact that there are more than 40 restaurants with one, two or three Michelin stars in Xiangjiang shows how developed the catering industry here is.

However, the two of them did not go to any particularly big restaurant at noon.

Instead, I drove to Kowloon and found a noodle shop that specializes in beef noodles.

During this period, I also called Wang Sicong.

As a result, the other party didn't seem to get up yet, so he said "I won't eat" in a daze, and hung up the phone.

Lao Xu likes to eat noodles, and so does he.

It seems that Lao Wang used too much force last night, so he had no luck.

After having a full meal, Xu Xin asked Lao Xu if there was anything he wanted to visit in Xiangjiang. He acted like a master... But when Xu Haofeng took him to an older neighborhood in Kowloon, Xu Xin didn't even know.

Where is this place? But when Lao Xu started to teach him about the Kowloon Walled City back then... Xu Xin realized that he was ignorant.

Others may be more familiar with Xiangjiang than I am.

The two started walking around and chatting.

Before Lao Xu went out to eat, he took a SLR with him.

But it is rarely used.

I only take a few photos with my camera when walking near some very old residential buildings in Kowloon.

At this moment, the two of them had just walked out of the ice room on the narrow street in Kowloon. Lao Xu held a cup of Xian Ning Qi in his hand and said:

"Do you feel like this place seems to have appeared in "Young and Dangerous"?"

"Hmm...I don't have much impression."

Xu Xin shook his head slightly, looked at the whole street, and said:

"My impression of Young and Dangerous is still in the plot, and I was still young at that time. If you want to observe other people's shooting techniques, or pay attention to some lens metaphors, that's unrealistic. I'm not even trying to hide it.

, I have almost forgotten the plot. I just remember that Liangkun was very angry..."

"..."

Xu Haofeng was speechless for a while.

But I have to nod:

"Indeed, that scene left a deep impression on me."

"Hahaha……"

The two chatted and laughed and walked along the street.

I have to admit that although the development in Kowloon is equally good, compared with the prosperous Causeway Bay and Central, it actually feels a little worse.

While walking, Xu Haofeng chatted with him about the "Old Kowloon Walled City" period.

For example, in "Young and Dangerous" they just talked about, Chen Huimin, the boss of Dongxing, played the role of Luotuo. This seemingly kind-hearted elder brother actually worked as a supporter in the 1960s and learned "Tan Jia San Quan" and Western boxing.

Because of his ability, he became a prison guard. Then in prison, some "big brothers" often came to him to take care of him. He was also a righteous person, and many of the big brothers fell in love with him inside. After they were released from prison, they often came to him to take care of new prisoners.

's younger brother.

Over time, Chen Huimin's status rose.

Although it can't be said that black and white take all, as a prison guard, his status on the black side is also somewhat famous.

Xu Xin had an impression of the person "Luotuo" and knew who he was talking about.

From Chen Huimin, the two of them talked about the famous Chinese detective Lei Luo... Ah, no, Lu Le.

Have to admit it.

Lao Xu knows so much.

It was also from him that he learned that Zeng Zhiwei's father, Zeng Qirong, was Lu Le's "top horse", specializing in helping Lu Le collect protection money from his elder brothers. Another example was the family history of the Xiang brothers and so on.

Old Xu has many treasures in his family.

This made Xu Xin curious about how he knew so much.

As a result, the fat man choked:

"Because I study."

Xu Xin was so angry that he took back the cigarette he was about to hand to him on the spot.

And the two of them just wandered around various places in Kowloon like vagrants.

The average temperature in Xiangjiang in January is around 18 degrees, which is an extremely comfortable season. Not hot, not cold.

They rested when they were tired and drank when they were thirsty.

I have obviously been to Xiangjiang, but at this moment, I am like two tourists, walking aimlessly all over the land of Xiangjiang.

There was a lot of chatting. Most of the time it was Lao Xu who was chatting and Xu Xin was improving his knowledge.

As we chatted, we came up with some sensitive topics from the Kowloon Walled City back then. These topics came out of Lao Xu's mouth and into the ears of Xu Xin and Su Meng. They talked and laughed, and then disappeared with the wind.

Then from these sensitive topics, we talked about the dragon and tiger martial arts masters in Xiangjiang.

In Lao Xu's words, the rise and fall of Xiangjiang's Dragon and Tiger Martial Arts is actually like a microcosm of the rise and fall of Xiangjiang's film industry.

According to him:

"I remember that some time ago, I went to school for a class, and several students with film history subjects asked me about their subjects. Their subject was to talk about the rise and fall of the Xiangjiang martial arts masters. I told them: If we talk about Cheng Long, Hong

Stars such as Jin Bao, who are famous for their kung fu, are the face of Hong Kong film history, so the dragon and tiger martial arts masters are actually the context and blood of Hong Kong films..."

"That's true."

When it comes to gossip and history, these are Xu Xin's weaknesses.

But when it comes to movies, whether it’s film history or film and television, Xu Xin has the right to speak.

"In fact, the prosperity of Hong Kong movies began in the 1980s. Speaking of that era, it happened to be the time when Reagan was elected president of the United States. It was also the actor who set up the strategy of using Hollywood movies to promote American values.

, which allowed Hollywood to officially wield the sickle from that era to harvest global culture. As soon as the sickle was waved, it was cut to the present."

"Um."

Xu Haofeng nodded:

"Then what is your definition of a dragon and tiger martial artist?"

Xu Xin thought for a while and said:

"The definition is actually very simple... To use the most vivid example, we do not discuss national policies or the economic situation... As far as this group is concerned, my definition of them is more like employees of our state-owned enterprises.

And their experience is just like the confusion of the laid-off wave of state-owned enterprise workers led by the three eastern provinces..."

"Yo?"

Xu Haofeng is interested:

"Let's talk... Although our views are similar, your statement is quite fresh."

"Actually, the definition of Dragon and Tiger Warriors is quite simple. The status of Xiangjiang Movies is equivalent to being lifted up by them. Without computer special effects and a safe enough team, they would have to risk their lives.

Xu Xin shook his head, looked at Xiangjiang, which was still prosperous but no longer prosperous, thought for a while, and said:

"It's an experience. A... retro and nostalgic experience."

…

The two of them walked around all afternoon and talked a lot.

But strictly speaking, it has no practical significance.

It's like talking about the Hong Kong movie. Firstly, there are no effective methods, and secondly, there is no far-sightedness.
To be continued...
