Li Jiading shouted, and the crew immediately pulled the wire with all their strength. The monks played by six martial arts team members jumped up and stood on the shoulders of the other seven people. Opposite these thirteen people, another thirteen
The martial arts team members are also doing the same action.
"drink!"
All the monks shouted together and made various moves with their eyebrow-raising sticks.
Li Lianjie and Hui Tianci, both with shaved heads, stood back-to-back, with three machines filming their reactions and expressions from different angles and distances.
"Ka, very good, next shot!" Kang Jianfei shouted.
Li Jiading organized his staff to throw eyebrow sticks at Li Lianjie and Hui Tianci in the field. The filming of this scene was extremely chaotic. It took three hours to shoot just throwing the sticks to block the sticks.
After Kang Jianfei nodded to express his satisfaction, everyone was so tired that they all sat down to rest.
Hui Yinghong came over with two tea cups, one handed to her brother Hui Tianci, the other to Li Lianjie and said: "Drink more water, action scenes are very tiring to shoot."
"Thank you!" Li Lianjie took the teacup and started drinking.
Nowadays, few people in mainland China have seen mineral water, and the crew could only boil water to make tea in the Shaolin Temple.
Hui Yinghong asked: "Ajie, I heard that "Shaolin Temple" you filmed will be released in Hong Kong?"
"Sister Hong, just call me Xiao Li." Li Lianjie grinned and said, "I don't know when "Shaolin Temple" will be released. That is the director's business."
Hui Yinghong looked back and found that no one was paying attention, so she asked: "Mr. Kang values you very much. Have you ever thought about immigrating to Hong Kong?"
Li Lianjie shook his head and said: "My parents are in mainland China. My organizational connections are also in the martial arts team. What's the use of going to Hong Kong?"
Hui Yinghong was sent by Kang Jianfei to test and encourage Li Lianjie. She said, "Do you know how much salary Mr. Kang gave you for this filming of "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng"?"
Li Lianjie shook his head and asked, "How much?"
Hui Yinghong stretched out a slap and said: "50,000 Hong Kong dollars. This is because you are a new actor. Your salary will at least double next year. If you stay in the martial arts team, you will not get this money. It is better to quit the team as soon as possible.
go to Hong Kong."
Li Lianjie pursed his lips. To be honest, he was really excited for so much money. Although based on the official exchange rate, 50,000 Hong Kong dollars was less than 10,000 yuan, but in the black market in mainland China, the yuan was actually not that strong.
Li Lianjie has lived in the martial arts team since he was a child, and has not had much contact with the outside world outside the team. He shook his head guiltily and said: "It was the martial arts team that trained me. Now that I have some achievements, I just left the martial arts team."
If you do, someone will poke you in the back."
Hui Yinghong said nothing more. She stood up, turned around and spread her hands towards Kang Jianfei in the distance.
Kang Jianfei just pretended not to see it and continued to discuss the filming of the following action scenes with Li Jiading and Yu Hai.
Although Yu Hai is the captain of the Shandong Martial Arts Team, he also came over with Kang Jianfei as a martial arts consultant this time, and also played the role of the Bodhidharma Monk who expelled Zhang Sanfeng and Dong Tianbao from the Shaolin Temple.
Chen Xiaoxing is proficient in Tai Chi. He doesn't know much about other boxing arts. At this time, he could only stand aside and listen to their discussions. It was not until the second half of the filming that Chen Xiaoxing, a martial arts consultant, came in handy.
After discussing Kang Jianfei's shot script for a while, Li Jiading, the martial arts director, arranged and directed the shooting, and Kang Jianfei only had to take other factors into consideration.
Kang Jianfei once again shot the remaining short fighting scene for a day and a half. He almost yelled "click" after doing a few moves. There were so many shots that he would probably have a headache during post-editing.
By noon the next day, the filming of the Shaolin Temple scene was finally completed, and everyone packed up and prepared to go down the mountain.
Abbot Xingzheng brought all the monks in the temple to see him off, and they did not send them off empty-handed. They actually gave each of them a Bodhisattva pendant and said: "The poor monk was a carpenter before he went up the mountain. He also carved some things to pass the time in his spare time. These Bodhisattvas
I carved it out in a hurry over the past few days. The wood is not very good. I gave it to the donors as a token of my gratitude. May the Bodhisattva bless all the donors with a safe life."
Everyone was overjoyed to receive the gift. This was a Bodhisattva carved by the abbot of Shaolin Temple himself. It must be more effective than what you get in ordinary temples.
Kang Jianfei looked at the Bodhisattva pendant in his hand. To be honest, the carving was very rough and the wood was ordinary pine. The funniest thing was that the rope was actually an ordinary sewing thread.
But in terms of sincerity and Buddha nature, Kang Jianfei felt that the thing in his hand was better than the Bodhisattva statues that would be purchased for tens of thousands of dollars in later generations.
Everyone stepped forward and clasped their hands to express their gratitude to the abbot. Chen Mo stood far away and pretended not to see it. In fact, he also wanted to go up and ask for something for his son, but he was too embarrassed to speak.
For the monks of Shaolin Temple, Kang Jianfei and his crew are really distinguished guests this time, and everyone gets along well. Unlike the last "Shaolin Temple" crew, although they are also directors from Hong Kong, there are mainland film bureaus throughout the process.
Accompanied by several officials, there was no communication at all between the two parties.
The monks in Shaolin Temple are also human beings. Not only do they endure hunger and cold, but they also don't see outsiders all year round. This time Kang Jianfei and the others brought a lot of popularity to the monks, so much so that the monks couldn't bear them leaving.
After thanking those people, Abbot Xingzheng took Kang Jianfei aside and asked: "Donor, from what Yongxin said, Su Neng gave you a volume of the Prajna Sutra copied by the holy monk Kumarajiva himself?"
Kang Jianfei nodded and said, "If there is such a thing, does the abbot want it too?"
Even if Monk Xingzheng wanted to say this, he would be too embarrassed to say it.
Abbot Xingzheng said: "Donor, can you let me take a look at the Buddha treasure? Just one look is fine."
Kang Jianfei joked: "Master Suneng said that the Zen state he realized is emptiness. Abbot, if you are thinking about looking at the Buddha treasure, it is not emptiness."
Abbot Xingzheng blushed and said, "Amitabha, I have received a sign, but I can't sit still without taking a look at the Buddha treasure."
Compared with Monk Su Neng, Abbot Xingzheng is just a more humane old man, and his level of cultivation is far different. In fact, in this Shaolin Temple, there are also a few monks who have gone down the mountain to beg for food... well, they are a few monks traveling far away.
, most of them are illiterate. These monks have never gone to school, and literacy is taught directly by old monks using scriptures. There are very few who can truly understand the true meaning of the scriptures.
The reason why Monk Xingzheng became the abbot is because he attended primary school for several years before going to the mountain...
To put it bluntly, these monks are basically just doing it for a living. Only Master Su Neng in the back mountain is a real practitioner, and he has reached a certain level of cultivation.
After getting the sandalwood box, Abbot Xingzheng held up the silk inside with trembling hands and carefully opened the silk book.
After waiting for Abbot Xingzheng to see it for a long time, Kang Jianfei asked: "How?"
Abbot Xingzheng closed the silk book, put it back in the sandalwood box and said, "Although I don't know if it was written by the holy monk Kumarajiva, but since everyone says it is, it can't be wrong. He drank foreign ink."
My top student is much more knowledgeable than me."
Kang Jianfei had the urge to faint, so he wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Abbott, your words are so simple."

After the crew came down the mountain, they arrived at the military camp that had been set up.
This area used to be the fields of nearby farmers, but now the farmers are easy to talk to. Kang Jianfei only needs to compensate the local commune according to the market price of the grain.
As soon as the crew arrived, local villagers came to watch one after another. Sometimes children were crying, and sometimes cats and dogs were barking. The surrounding area was very lively, just like farmers coming here to go to the market.
Kang Jianfei said to Chen Mo: "Comrade Chen Mo, please inform the nearby production team. From tomorrow on, my crew needs to recruit extras. Only healthy men between the ages of 18 and 40 will be recruited. Each person will be paid per day.
For 1 yuan, I will recruit at least 200 people."
Poor Chen Mo, an official from the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office, turned out to be an errand boy. He could only sigh in his heart and run to find the captain of the production team.
After only listening for more than 20 minutes, a domineering broadcast rang out in the distant village: "...All the villagers in the xx brigade of xx commune are listening. According to the instructions from our superiors, we are required to fully cooperate with the work of comrade artists. Now comrade artists are making movies.
If I need help, men between the ages of 18 and 40, with no missing arms or legs, will all come over to me and follow my orders. As long as they are selected, everyone will be paid one dollar a day..."
"Wow……"
Before the radio finished speaking, there was already an explosion among the nearby villagers who were watching. Immediately, many people rushed over and overturned the wooden fences erected outside the "military camp".
Uncle Qi was asking the field attendants to carry out the uniforms of the officers and soldiers. He suddenly saw so many villagers "killing" him. He thought that the unruly people were rebelling and were coming to rob him. He was so frightened that he shouted: "Bring the uniforms over quickly, don't let them snatch them."
!”
Perhaps because he saw that Uncle Qi was the oldest, many villagers gathered around him. A man asked: "Artist leader, do you think I can succeed? Instead of 1 yuan a day, just give me 5 cents."
"Choose me. Leader, look at how strong I am. I can do the job of two."
"Comrade leader, do you have to do the work here to take care of the food?"
"..."
Soon the crew became a mess, and more and more villagers came running after hearing the broadcast, and no one could control it.
Chen Mo and the production team leader ran over and yelled for a long time, their voices were hoarse and there was nothing they could do. They were so anxious that they were sweating profusely.
The crew members from Hong Kong and the two martial arts team members laughed heartlessly. They were very tired from filming these days and it was rare to see such a happy scene.
The production team leader felt that he was embarrassed in front of the leader. He saw Kang Jianfei's guide tube in the distance, ran over and picked it up to use as a trumpet. He shouted at the top of his voice: "Don't make any noise. Anyone who talks again will be shot in a labor camp."
!”
After shouting several times in succession, the scene was finally shaken. Kang Jianfei gave the captain a thumbs up, and then Li Jiading and the others were asked to select people, while other field staff were busy moving out the props shipped from Hong Kong. (Unfinished)
