Movie tycoon

Chapter 245 Hollywood Visitor (Third Watch)

Seeing that the eyes of Chen Xiaotang and his black friend sparkled, as if they were about to start a fight, Shi Jian, an old-school actor who is good at playing big villains, couldn't help being a little surprised.At this moment, he could even feel the fiery fighting intent in the eyes of the two of them.

Chen Xiaotang and Afro Black, two kung fu lovers, stared at each other like fighting cocks.

"Okay, you two just met and want to discuss each other?" Shi Jian interrupted their confrontation.

Chen Xiaotang smiled: "Uncle Jian is right, I am a guest from afar, I am sorry, Mr. Jim, I was a little rude just now!" Chen Xiaotang clasped his fists and said.

"No, it's because I'm so competitive that I get itchy all over when I see people with good kung fu!" Jim the afro grinned.

The two haven't competed with each other yet, but they already have the meaning of sympathy for each other.

"My dear Shi said that you like Bruce Lee very much?" Afro Jim asked suddenly.

"Yes, he is my idol! He is also the idol of many of us in Hong Kong, especially those of us who learn martial arts, who are all proud of him. It is he who wrote the word kung fu into the English dictionary, isn't he?!" Chen Xiaotang Said neither humble nor overbearing.

"Oh, God, I didn't expect Bruce to have so many admirers—yes, although I haven't been with him for a long time, he is indeed a respectable warrior—he is very powerful, especially his Leg skills... I remember when I first played with him, watching him kick three times in a row, I couldn't keep my mouth shut in surprise!" Jim said excitedly.

Seeing Jim mentioning Bruce~LEE next to him, Shi Jian couldn't help but miss the old days, and interjected: "Yes, I was also very good at fighting at that time, although it seemed a little tricky to you masters, but I can't deal with ordinary players. Thief, that is more than enough..."

"Bruce's legs are the best, right? You almost got kicked in the head when you sparred with him!" Jim laughed.

"What, that's because it happened to be called to stop during the filming, and as soon as I lost my mind..."

Then Shi Jian and Hei Hei began to talk about Bruce Lee enthusiastically, many of which Chen Xiaotang had never heard of.

The two first talked about how Bruce Lee's muscles were trained. Shi Jian said: "I know this best. Bruce Lee used electric current to stimulate muscles the longest; he told me that the purpose of using electric current to stimulate muscles is to maximize the strength He even asked me to try it. I lost it, I don’t have the ability, let alone stimulate the muscles with electric current, I can’t stand it even if there is an occasional electrical leakage in the house!”

Afro Jim immediately continued: "You're right, dear Shi, but do you know that Bruce likes to hold his breath for a long time when he stimulates his body with electric current and resists the current with force; doing so will cause brain shortness. Time-defining oxygen has a great impact on the brain, so I suspect that his death may be related to this... Oh, God, in terms of martial arts, he is like a lunatic, constantly challenging himself!"

Shi Jian didn't say anything about it. As an old friend of Bruce Lee, he didn't want to say that Bruce Lee died because of "going mad" because of his practice. He likes to fight, here, in HK, there are many stories about him fighting, would you like to hear it?"

"Bruce's fighting history? Oh God, dear Shi, don't fool me, tell me, and let dear Chen also hear—" Jim asked curiously.

Shi Jian was very proud. Not many people knew about Bruce Lee's history of fighting in the past. As an old friend of Bruce Lee, several times after filming, he went to eat food stalls on the street together, and Bruce Lee told him about his past history of prestige. .

"Bruce loves to fight very much, and he likes to fight with people who are bigger than himself. The master made a bet, and agreed that whoever lost would take off his pants and walk from Mong Kok to Tsim Sha Tsui. As a result, the western boxing master was defeated, took off his pants, and was held by Bruce Lee. He walked on the street and attracted many people to watch... "

"Another time, the negotiations between Bruce and the gangsters were more exciting. When Bruce Lee was in middle school, he asked to negotiate with the leader of the gangsters because the gangsters often went to school to harass him. There were more than a dozen gangsters that day. I brought a machete to negotiate, but I didn’t expect that only a teenager came to negotiate. It felt very strange. When Bruce Lee saw these people, he shot them with a slingshot from a distance. These people carried knives When I chased him, he had already disappeared without a trace..."

From Shi Jian talking about Bruce Lee's story, it can be seen that his relationship with Bruce Lee is absolutely extraordinary, and even to some extent, Shi Jian has some "worship" for Bruce Lee.

An actor can not only be admired by his fans, but also fascinated by his filming partners. Just imagine, what kind of charm is needed for this? !
For the story told by Shi Jian, Chen Xiaotang and Jim listened with great interest. At this time, the three of them were like old friends who hadn't seen each other for many years. Listen, there is a tacit understanding.

After Shi Jian finished telling the story of Bruce Lee, he saw that the time was almost up, and said to Jim: "Dear Jim, since you have come to HK, you have to learn two things about our China—"

Afro Jim: "Two things? One should be your 'Chen Nizi Kung Fu', I have learned it when I was filming in HK, so what is the other?!"

Before Shi Jian could speak, Chen Xiaotang said first, "Of course it's Chinese baijiu!"

"Chinese liquor?!" Afro Jim was dumbfounded.

"I originally owed Uncle Jian a meal, and now I'm paying off the debt!" Chen Xiaotang laughed.

The three of them came to a restaurant that specializes in Chinese dishes.

On the dining table, there are several exquisite Chinese dishes, and Jim, the afro-headed man, whetted his appetite. He gestured with his hands and said, "Chinese food is delicious!"

Shi Jian smiled slightly and said, "Not only does it look, it's also delicious!"

Afro Jim: "Really? Then I want to try it!"

Shi Jian winked at Chen Xiaotang, and Chen Xiaotang cocked his mouth, and helped Jim fill a glass of baijiu with a goblet, and said, "This is a strong liquor in China, called 'Erguotou', try it, it's absolutely delicious. Enough!"

Jim has always been very conceited about his drinking capacity, especially likes to drink spirits like vodka with a relatively high alcohol content, so he doesn't quite believe Chen Xiaotang's words.He picked up the wine glass, looked at it, and felt that Chinese baijiu didn't seem very eye-catching, but after smelling it, it was quite fragrant.So he said: "It looks good, I don't know how it tastes like!" After speaking, he raised his neck and poured a large glass of white wine into his stomach.

That's sixty or seventy degrees of alcohol.

This afro Jim is miserable.

Baijiu entered the throat, it was as hot as a fire, and then the strong smell of alcohol rushed straight into the nostrils.

Jim only felt that his throat and chest were being scraped like a knife, and his internal organs were burning.

"Oh God, I'm dying, my body is burning! It's really burning! Is this wine or poison?!" At this moment, Jim was jumping like a gorilla, grinning, looking funny.

"Hahaha, dear Mr. Jim, do you want another drink?" Chen Xiaotang joked.

Seeing Chen Xiaotang provoking himself with a wine bottle, Afro Jim raised his glass: "Of course! I'm not drunk yet! God knows, although this wine is very strong, it still can't pour me down!"

"Hehe, wouldn't it be too boring to just let you drink alone?! We Chinese~ people always pay attention to etiquette, come, I will toast you!" Chen Xiaotang raised his glass.

Afro-headed Jim clinked glasses with Chen Xiaotang, after a few glasses of wine, this Jim was already a little dizzy and talked more.

"Our family lives in a ghetto in America where I grew up black - God knows why I live there, my mom says it's God testing me. If that's the case then God must Does not love black people, because all he tests are black people!"

"I knew from a young age that I was different from those white kids. They could play football and rugby in an open and aboveboard manner. As for me, I could only choose some sports that are suitable for black people, such as basketball, or boxing -- God knows, those of us The nigger in the eyes of white people seems to be so cheap!"

"But my favorite sport is karate. I used to practice kung fu hard and volunteered to be the world's number one karate master, but then I found out that my biggest hobby is acting in movies! Oh God, who knows, I will be Bruce Lee invited to act in a rivalry! Maybe this is the fate of fate, the fate of Bruce and I! I want to thank him, without him, I would not have had a happy film career these years-although all I filmed were some black films, the audience I am also a person with the same skin color as me, but I am already very satisfied because I have found my dream! Really, I am very satisfied! Although those white actors still look down on me, look down on me, a kung fu nigga."

After another glass of wine, Jim paused for a moment, flushed with drunkenness on his face, and continued: "You know what. Because of making a movie, I was surrounded by a group of white people in the alley and beat me. They warned me, Better get out of the movie business and stop making those goddamn black movies! I asked myself why this is happening, and finally realized that they don't want to see a black man on the big screen and beat the shit out of white people! White people can't Those who lose, especially not in the hands of us black people with humble blood!"

During the conversation, Jim's expression became very angry.
