21. Chapter 21 The Eve

To be fair, the Kung Fu boy role that Wang Jie needs to play does not have any emotional conflicts or spiritual collisions. There is no need to show off his appearance or transform into the Roaring Emperor. It is just a few ordinary scenes. As for the fighting scenes, he has to work with the special effects company, Buffyin

The staff of the special effects company cooperated with the crew.

Wang Jie was in the room assigned to him at night, conducting training tasks. The crew started filming the next day. His roles were not many and relatively trivial. Basically, most of the time, he just received one of his number plates, and then

Wait in a room, and according to this number plate, you will receive the clothes and makeup needed for the next shot.

Therefore, he also enjoyed himself, hiding in a corner to practice his martial arts. Several people in the room also had their own things to do, and the room was very quiet for a while.

"Hi there."

A person called Wang Jie next to him. He took a deep breath and ended his luck this week. He opened his eyes and saw that the actor waiting here with him was the grandson of the old woman who saved the earth. Wang Jie

Jay asked: "Is there anything I can do for you?"

Wade, the young man who came to call him, said, "I see you have been standing here for a long time. Are you practicing your kung fu?"

After saying that, he gestured twice, and Wang Jie said: "Yes, I am idle now anyway. I think everyone is either reading books or reading scripts, which is very boring."

Wade said: "I read your report, wow, you are really good. You really caught that person and told me how you did it and did he shoot."

Wang Jie said: "This, the police seem to have told me not to publicize it to the outside world, because there may be other suspects."

Wade was not discouraged and continued to ask: "What kind of kung fu did you learn? It seems to me that it is different from Bruce Lee and Jack Chen. Are you just standing like this?"

What Wang Jie is most afraid of now may be meeting a certain martial arts practitioner. If it is revealed that he has not received formal martial arts training for a day, then the source of his combat power will definitely be doubted, so he is also now

Try your best to make up for this shortcoming of yours, but well, it shouldn't be difficult to deceive foreigners.

"I'm exercising my balance ability," Wang Jie explained. Then he took out a coin from his pocket, put it on the back of his hand, stood up, panned several times in front of him, and said, "If you practice Chinese Kung Fu,

, it’s not just noisy boxing, this kind of basic training is also indispensable.”

Wang Jie let the coin stand and spin several times in his hand, and said, "That's it."

"Wow, that's amazing," Wade stretched out his hand, picked up the coin from Wang Jie's stopped hand, and said, "How many years have you practiced to learn it? How should I start learning it now?"

Regarding this kind of problem, Wang Jie had already made a plan and said: "Ah, there is nothing we can do about this. Generally, we should start practicing before the age of three or four to turn this ability into instinct-like behavior, just like breathing and walking."

It’s the same, it becomes a conditioned reflex.”

Wade lowered his head in disappointment and said, "How could this happen? Isn't it like boxing or Japanese karate? You can also learn it. I signed up for several classes. Ever since I successfully auditioned and got the role."

Hearing him mention Japan, Wang Jie became a little uncomfortable. He knew that everyone in the room was looking at him and seemed to be disturbing them, so he began to whisper: "That's not the case, Wade, you know, it's just like in the United States.

, you can buy guns, but they are all civilian versions, or Little Willy's, and Big Willy's weapons such as fully automatic rifles or grenades are not allowed to be sold. In the eyes of the Chinese, using a black belt in Kung Fu

, it’s a very strange thing for Le Cordon Bleu to distinguish between high and low levels. Yes, it’s very strange. It’s like my mother made an apple pie, which is called apple pie in the United States. Does it have to be divided into first and second levels? Isn’t the apple pie delicious?

If it tastes good, just look at the tongue and whether the kung fu is good or not, you will know after a fight."

Wade said: "I understand what you mean. You are saying that Chinese Kung Fu does not depend on the level of boxing skills, right?"

Wang Jie shook his head and said: "Wade, as you can see, whether it is Taekwondo or Karate, first of all, it is a commodity, and then it is a kind of martial arts. People are classifying students for the purpose of doing business. What kind of black belts are there?"

Cordon Bleu is also a marketing tool, just like...well."

At this time, Wade put Wang Jie's coin in his hand and stood it on the back of his hand. However, he only moved once and the coin fell directly to the ground. It flew far away in one breath and was picked up by a girl who was reading a book seriously.

Then she came over.

Taking the coin and returning it to Wade, she said: "It's like scoring wine. Most of the people who drink it can't tell the difference between good and bad. They just follow the trend blindly."

Wang Jie blinked. He really didn’t know that there was such a thing in wine, and said: "A very good metaphor, you are?"

"Natalie Portman," the girl casually stretched out her hand to shake and said, "It's amazing kung fu."

Wang Jie said: "Everyone will find it amazing when they see others being good at something they are not good at. In fact, he himself thinks it is very ordinary."

Natalie said: "I saw what you did in Atlanta. It was a very heroic act."

Wang Jie has become numb to this question. Now he just said this when he saw him, but he still said: "Thank you."

Natalie said: "Speaking of this, did you watch the news this morning? Atlanta City Hall awarded you the title of honorary citizen."

Wang Jie was noncommittal and felt that it was of no use. He said: "Ah, well, in my personal opinion, a false name is meaningless. In fact, I am more worried."

Wade was on the side and said: "What are you worried about? You are now the biggest celebrity in the United States."

Wang Jie said: "Well, I'm afraid that after my story is spread, other children will imitate and act like heroes. After all, they are not like me, who have been training for more than ten years since they were young."

Natalie nodded and said, "This worry is very correct."

The two talked about their respective learning experiences for a while, and Natalie said: "My impression of Chinese Kung Fu comes from Bruce Lee and some Hong Kong movies, but because of the relationship between making movies, I know that they are all artistic creations.

, so Kung Fu, what is this thing like, it feels so magical, but it is not like this in reality."

I also want to know about this matter. I felt that the girl opposite was not speaking simply. Wang Jie thought about it and said, "I think there must be so-called artistic processing. Since humans live on the earth, they must comply with the physical rules of the earth.

, However, I think there must be some people who are really capable. I am just a rookie, how do I understand this."

When he was in his hometown, he also saw other people practicing martial arts. He had no feeling for these roaring routines at first, but after getting the gem, he immediately understood something. Wang Jie judged: Chinese Kung Fu is probably the only remaining

Half of the inheritance is the moves, but the other half, the internal strength, has been lost. But how did the gems know?

At this time, Wade said: "Hey, Wang Jie, it just so happens that there is a ladder nearby tonight. Why don't you come and participate? You are so famous now, you must be very popular with the girls."

For Wang Jie, what he really thinks now is, if he has points, he will go if he has points. If he doesn’t have points, he won’t go. There is no way, the things on the shopping shelves are too expensive, and for him, time is very important.

My precious ones, you can go and enjoy yourself if you have something to do, and don't disturb my ascension.

He scratched his head and made an excuse: "Well, I think when I first came to the United States, there was a pamphlet that said you can't go drinking in bars before you are 20 years old."

Wade said: "Oh my gosh, where did you read that you can't go to a bar to drink before you are 20 years old, but drinking at your own or a friend's house is still fine. Come on, America is free."

So that's it. I said it was weird. It turned out to be a misunderstanding. Wang Jie had to say: "I'm afraid I don't have time at night because I have to train."

"Eon, is there someone urging you to practice at night? It's okay to skip one day of practice. You are a big celebrity and will be very popular. There are many girls from art schools here. Don't you want to meet them?"

Not interested, really. Wang Jie said no again and again. At this time, thanks to his assistant, Wade was allowed to go over and start shooting his scenes.

Wang Jie sighed. He didn't care about money or fame when he got into Hollywood. He just came to earn points, so he didn't care about it. He knew that in the eyes of Westerners, Chinese people are dull and nerds who only know how to study.

, before he went abroad, he knew from the returned overseas students that he was just about to start practicing Tai Chi again when Natalie suddenly spoke: "I observed you yesterday, staying at home all night, your daily life

Are you just standing quietly like this, practicing Kung Fu?"

Wang Jie said: "Of course not. Today is because the place is too small. Usually my practice is much more lively than this. And I don't just learn martial arts. At least I am good at writing novels."

"Oh, you write a novel, what kind of thing."

Wang Jie thought of Moore's unwilling look "before his death" and said, "Well, this came to my mind when I was chasing Eric and walking alone in the forest park. Well, the story happened

The location is also Atlanta. I have tentatively named the novel The Walking Dead. It tells the story of a policeman. After being injured and hospitalized, he wakes up alone one day and finds that the hospital and the city are deserted. Through searching, he discovers

, the whole world has turned into hell due to the zombie disaster. With his last hope, he embarked on a journey to find his wife and son..."

Wang Jie briefly described the plot of the TV series The Walking Dead. Of course, the details must conform to the characteristics of the 1996 era. After telling the general story flow, Natalie thought about it carefully and said: "It is a story about a person exploring an unknown world, and it also contains

Thriller, family, very good idea, but I don’t know how to write it.”

I do have the original manuscript, and I can exchange it for the original official novel I got from the gem with 1 click of a scroll. It’s time to write it like this. Anyway, the incident in Atlanta has just passed, so I said it was the inspiration and feelings when I was chasing Eric. Who

Can you see through it?

Wang Jie said: "Okay, I have written a few chapters and I will show them to you when I have time."

Natalie said: "Thank you, I won't bother you."

Wang Jie practiced for a while, and it was time for him to shoot a few scenes. Since he was not a big name, he did not enjoy the time and care, so he could only wait for the entire crew to film his scenes. Fortunately, the plot did not require much.

After shooting a few scenes without lines in the morning, it was over.

The food arrangement at the Warner Bros. studio was very good. It was not the box lunches given to the Hong Kong and Taiwanese crew in Wang Jie's impression, but a very good buffet. At 11:30, the director announced that it was time for a meal break, but Wang Jie was still there at this time.

After waiting for a while, he opened his eyes and found Natalie, who was passing by and returning to the dormitory, holding a piece of cake the size of a baby's fist for lunch, and said with a smile: "Just eat this, are you full?"

.”

Natalie said: "I am a vegetarian and that is enough."
