Rebirth 1977 Great Era

Chapter 591: The first mainland martial arts film, the literary giant Ye Shengtao appears in the hospital again
"So what do you think?" Fang Yan asked his master Lu Donghua on the other end of the phone.

After a moment's silence, Mr. Lu said:
"I just want to hear your opinion."

Fangyan thought about it, and then began to analyze:

"If it's a movie produced by the Beijing Film Studio, then it's a formal job. If the time and level of work are suitable, I think you can give it a try. After all, not everyone has the opportunity to appear on the big screen these days. You can also promote our traditional martial arts through this."

Mr. Lu on the other end of the phone was obviously a little excited. He asked:

"So you mean you support me to go?"

The dialect said:

"I'm just giving you an opinion. I support whatever decision you make."

Mr. Lu on the other end of the phone suddenly laughed and said:

"You are more pleasing to the ear than some people who say that I am an old man and why I am still messing around at such an old age."

As soon as he finished speaking, Fang Yan heard Lu Sihai's voice on the phone:

"Dad, the filming location is in Leshan, Sichuan, which is very far away from here, and the environment there is completely different from our northern region. Can you adapt to it?"

Then Lu Donghua said to his son Lu Sihai:
"When I traveled all over the country, I sought out people to teach me martial arts. Where have I not been?"

"I think this is a done deal. It's in the southwest and it's much warmer than here. I'll go there with the filming crew after the Spring Festival to avoid the cold."

Fangyan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. It seemed that the old man really wanted to go, but was stopped by his family. That's why he thought of calling him for support.

Fangyan asked into the phone:
"Master, if you go over to film, what about the hospital?"

Lu Donghua responded on the phone:
"Things at the hospital are easy to arrange. Don't worry. I had already discussed it with the hospital when I was rehired. They promised that I could leave whenever I wanted."

Then Lu Sihai's complaints came from the other end of the phone, and Lu Donghua said into the phone:
"Okay, that's it for the dialect. I'll come over to your place in a while and we can meet and talk in detail."

"Okay." Fangyan responded.

Then I heard the master hung up the phone. It seemed that he was going to talk to his son.

But then again, I have no impression of the dialect at all in this movie called "The Mysterious Big Buddha".

I have absolutely no recollection of such an old movie existing in my previous life.

However, Fangyan has not done much research on old movies. It is very likely that this movie is not very famous, so he did not see it in his previous life.

After all, martial arts films were only popular in Hong Kong during this period.

You won't see any martial arts films in mainland cinemas.

This film "The Mysterious Big Buddha" is probably an attempt made by the film studio after the mainland's policies were relaxed.

Fang Yan thought about it, then picked up the phone and called Chen Kaige's home.

The person who answered the phone was Director Chen. When he heard the voice of Fangyan, he immediately complained to Fangyan about his college entrance examination score which was one point short. It could be heard that he still cared a lot about it.

Fangyan had no choice but to comfort the depressed Director Chen with kind words on the phone.

Tell him that misfortune may turn out to be a blessing in disguise, and that a bright future is waiting for him.

Don’t mention it, it was useless for Director Chen to be comforted by others, he felt much better when he heard the dialect.

The main thing is that the things predicted by the dialect were basically fulfilled, so when Director Chen heard him say that "Misfortune may be a blessing in disguise", he actually had a feeling that "there must be a better future waiting for us."

Then I remembered to ask Fangyan what the phone call was for.

Fang Yan briefly told Director Chen what he had just said on the phone with his master Lu Donghua. Director Chen immediately called his father to ask what was going on.

Chen Huaikai explained in dialect on the phone:
"The movie 'Mysterious Buddha' is the first martial arts movie in the history of our domestic movies. It is very groundbreaking. I heard Brother Kai tell you about your master's story. I felt that since he was able to teach several master disciples, he must be a hermit. So, just like this time, director Zhang Huaxun recommended Mr. Lu."

It was only after hearing this that Fangyan realized that this was the first martial arts film in mainland China.

That is indeed epoch-making in significance. After all, it is the pioneering work of mainland martial arts films. No matter how it goes, there will be a record of it in film history.

However, I had never heard of this movie in my previous life, so I asked curiously:

“Who is the lead actor in such a groundbreaking martial arts movie?”

Chen Huaikai did not hide his dialect and revealed directly:
"The ones confirmed so far include Liu Xiaoqing, Zhang Shunsheng, and Guan Zongxiang."

When Fangyan heard it, he didn't expect the lineup to be so luxurious.

Liu Xiaoqing took part in the film "The Great Wall of the South China Sea" produced by the August 1975st Film Studio in and became famous afterwards. Until the time of the dialect crossing, Grandma Liu was still active on the screen.

Zhang Shunsheng, who came later, is not well-known in later generations, but now he is a famous ballet dancer and has performed in many classic dance dramas.

She has performed in "The Red Detachment of Women", "The White-Haired Girl" and "Swan Lake".

The last one is Guan Zongxiang, who is a professional villain these days.

In the classic movie "Little Soldier Zhang Ga", he played the captain of the puppet army, leaving a very deep impression on people.

In all likelihood, he will play the villain in this movie again.

He is also the father of director Guan Hu.

After hearing this lineup, Fangyan felt relieved about his master's participation in the performance.

With these three big names around, the crew shouldn't be too bad.

Moreover, since this is the first domestic martial arts film, the conditions in all aspects should be good, and the environment in Leshan is also pretty good, so the master should be able to adapt to it.

Afterwards, Fang Yan and Chen Huaikai chatted for a while and asked about Sun Jialin's admission information. They found out the score line and confirmed that Sun Jialin could go to Capital Institute of Architecture and Civil Engineering.

Only Director Chen was blocked from entering Peking University because of a one-point difference.

The fate of the couple has now quietly entered a different trajectory, but they haven't seen it clearly yet.

Fangyan hung up the phone and looked at the time on his watch. It was almost five o'clock, so he called his younger brother and prepared to go to the hospital to say hello to Mr. Shen, the great writer Maodun.

At this moment, Fangyan was also checking the condition of the three patients today after they took the first dose of medicine.

After arriving at the hospital, Fang Yan first went to see the child who had a long-term high fever.

This is a patient that my grandfather's apprentice failed to cure. Now he has been admitted to the hospital by myself. I have to see what his condition is.

The dialect uses the "Guizhi Longgu Muli Decoction" in the "Jinkui Yaolue" and adds a large amount of astragalus, 10 grams of cooked aconite, and 10 grams of ginseng root.

When Fangyan arrived at the ward, he saw that the little girl was already asleep on the bed. Her parents were guarding the bedside. When they saw Fangyan coming, the couple stood up immediately.

Fangyan lowered his voice and asked them:

"How about now?"

The child's father said to Fang Yan excitedly:

"Doctor Fang, you are amazing. I feel much better now after taking the medicine."

"We took the temperature every hour. When he was taking the medicine, it was 38.5 degrees, but after taking the medicine and having lunch, it was only 37.5 degrees."

The child's mother also nodded and said in dialect:
"The fever has dropped significantly, and the sweating has also decreased. Before, when the child was asleep, the sweat on his neck and head would wet the pillow. Now you see, there is only a thin layer of sweat."

"Also, when he had a fever before, his body and forehead were hot, but his limbs were cold. Now when we touched his limbs, they were already warm."

Upon hearing this, Fang Yan went forward to check on the sleeping child, touched her forehead, palms and soles of feet, confirmed that her forehead was still a little hot, and the chills in her limbs had improved, and then said to the patient's parents:
"Okay, this shows that the Ying Qi and Wei Qi in the body are in a harmonious and coordinated state. Observe the child's appetite and the color of his urine at night."

"If your appetite improves significantly and your urine is no longer yellow, then you should be fine in no time."

After hearing Fangyan's words, the couple nodded repeatedly. They had now seen the effectiveness of the treatment and had a new understanding of Fangyan's medical skills.

It is no exaggeration to say that this doctor's medical skills are miracle-like. After taking a dose of medicine, the child's fever immediately went down.

The couple agreed:

"Yeah, thank you, Doctor Fang! We'll make a note of it."

After saying this, he did not forget to give Fang Yan a sincere compliment:

"Doctor Fang, you are truly a miracle doctor!"

Fangyan smiled and waved his hands:
"Okay, the child is asleep. Speak softly so as not to wake her up. You guys stay with her. I'll go check on the other patients."

The couple nodded repeatedly and then sent Fangyan out of the ward.

Then Fangyan came to the door of the next ward and looked inside through the glass. The ward here was bustling. It was the 19-year-old girl who had hemangioma on her arm.

At the moment, their whole family is still here with them. Fortunately, this is the intensive care unit, otherwise it would not be able to accommodate so many people.

Her condition would require a long time to treat. Fang Yan went in to check whether she was taking the medicine or not. After taking her pulse and confirming that she had improved slightly, he left the ward and came to the last ward, which belonged to Mr. Shen.

I looked inside through the door and saw several people inside.

They were all middle-aged people in their fifties or sixties, about the same age as Chen Xiaoman.

There was only an old man with a bald head and long eyebrows, who was talking to Mr. Shen beside the bed.

Fang Yan knocked on the door and walked in with his younger brother Fang Chen.

Facing this room full of people, the little brother was obviously a little nervous.

At this time, the accompanying Chen Xiaoman hurriedly introduced Fang Yan's identity to others. Several people came up and shook hands with Fang Yan. Although Fang Yan did not know the people here, he could tell from their clothes, conversation and temperament that these were all leaders.

Fangyan didn't ask any questions, he just shook hands with everyone.

Everyone told Fangyan to do his best to treat Mr. Shen and so on.

Faced with the leaders' requests, Fang Yan of course nodded and agreed, saying that he would definitely do his best to cure Mr. Shen as soon as possible so that he could fully recover before the Spring Festival.

The leaders were also very happy to hear Fangyan's attitude.

In the end, the only person left to shake hands was the bald old man with long eyebrows.

Mr. Shen, who was lying on the bed, said to him:
“This is the top scorer in liberal arts this year.”

The bald old man with long eyebrows immediately perked up, stood up and stretched out his hand to Fang Yan:
"Hello, Mr. Top Scholar who can cure diseases, your article is well written."

When Fangyan heard the name, he didn't care and shook hands with him with a smile.

"Hello, old comrade. I just wrote this essay casually. I don't deserve your praise."

The old man said to the dialect:

"Writing is a natural thing. I just write it down randomly. I think so too. Hahahaha..."

When Fangyan heard what the old man said, he couldn't help but laugh. He didn't expect that this old comrade was quite humorous.

Then the other party said to the dialect:

"Let me introduce myself. I'm Lao Shen's friend. My last name is Ye, and my given name is Shengtao."

Fang Yan was slightly startled. Wait...last name Ye? First name Shengtao?
Ye Shengtao? !

Wow, I met another literary giant whom I had only seen in textbooks in my previous life.

At this time, Mr. Shen said to Fang Yan:

"Doctor Fang, you've come at the right time. Old Ye just told me that he has been seeing double in his left eye recently. Can you take a look at what's wrong with him and see if it can be cured?"

There will be more updates later.
