1982 Started from Hong Kong

Chapter 71 The Five Shaolin Ancestors
Su Long personally found a van and sent Zhai Yuan and his group of six up.

Carlos Chan and Leung Chi Chiu took a taxi.

Finally, Su Long left a business card for Zhai Yuan.

"Handsome, whenever you start filming with Deng Guangrong, just call me and we'll settle the payment after the call."

The van rushed out of Yau Tsim District and headed straight for Sau Mau Ping.

In the car, Zhai Yuan asked Shangguan Yonggan.

"Besides opening a martial arts school and recruiting disciples, what other plans do you have for coming to Hong Kong?"

"We are here to do three things."

"oh!?"

Zhai Yuan sat upright.

Then Shangguan Yonggan continued:
"The first thing is to open a martial arts school so that people in the south can experience northern kung fu."

"The second thing is to make some money. Brothers Yaowen and Yaowu are not married yet. I need to make some money to build them two houses so that they can find wives. I heard that capitalists offer high salaries."

"The third reason is that I want to make a movie. We don't have the equipment in the whole village, but I heard there are a lot of them here."

Zhai Yuan didn’t think there was anything wrong with the first two points.

When he heard the third one, he was stunned: "Why did you think of making a movie?"

"In the first half of the year, the brigade showed a movie called Shaolin Temple, which was starred by a young man."

Shangguan Yonggan said this with a look of disdain: "Hey! What kind of Shaolin Kung Fu is that he is using? He even made a bunch of old ladies confused. We have been learning martial arts in Shaolin since we were young, and the way that guy is acting is wrong. So this time when we come to Hong Kong, we must remake a movie of "Shaolin Temple" and take it back to let those old ladies broaden their horizons!"

Are you talking about Jet Li?
Hearing him claim that he learned martial arts in Shaolin, Zhai Yuan looked at the tops of their heads. Their hair was quite thick and they didn't look like monks who had shaved their heads at all.

"Don't let the movie that young man starred in fool you. We are learning Kung Fu in Shaolin, not becoming monks. My daughter can run around."

Shangguan Yonggan tried his best to change Zhai Yuan's mind.

After a while of chatting, Zhai Yuan finally understood their entire experience.

He lives in a remote mountainous area in Henan Province. He has been learning martial arts since he was a child and has never left the village.

He served in the army two years ago and went out of the village for the first time. He did something similar to Hu Bayi on the battlefield and was demobilized on the spot.

But he gained more knowledge during his time in the army and listened to storytelling. When he returned to the village, he became restless and always wanted to establish his own school like Tong Lin in the storytelling.

It happened that the movie "Shaolin Temple" was a national hit, and a few people who looked down on Jet Li's fancy moves discussed it and decided that if this thing could be a hit, then we could probably do it, right?

Why not just go to Hong Kong and do three things at the same time: open a museum, make money, and make movies!
As the team leader, Shangguan bravely asked the village chief to issue five letters of introduction, and then he went to the township, town and county.

Normally, it would be impossible for them to get a pass to Hong Kong, but it just so happened that the local Henan Opera Troupe was going to various places abroad to participate in art performances, and the first stop was Hong Kong.

Shangguan Yonggan had no other skills except for the art of coaxing and nagging. He stayed at the doorstep of the relevant person in charge for more than half a month and refused to leave, eating, drinking, defecating, urinating and sleeping. Anyway, he did not violate any laws, and no one dared to mess with him because he had served in the army. Finally, he forced the person in charge into no choice but to ask the leader for five more places, and stuffed them into the performance troupe. Only then did he arrive in Hong Kong.

"Cow wow!"

After listening to their experiences, Zhai Yuan couldn't help but sigh.

You are the Five Patriarchs of Shaolin in the new era!

I have only been to Vietnam since I was a child, and have spent the rest of my time in the village. No wonder I can't tell the difference between the exchange rate between Hong Kong dollars and RMB.

This is just like many elderly people in the past always believed that there were only two countries in the world: our country and foreign countries.

All the way to Sau Mau Ping.

When the van arrived at the station, Zhai Yuan and his group of six jumped out.

Liang Zhichao and Chen Jiale had not arrived yet, and only Tang Lok Ling was left standing alone, leaning against the wall downstairs of the housing estate with a lonely look in her eyes.

Seeing Zhai Yuan appear, Deng Leling's eyes lit up and she looked up and smiled at him.

As a result, Zhai Yuan didn't even look at her, and led Shangguan Yonggan and his group past her.

Deng Leling put down her half-raised hand awkwardly, looking very disappointed.

Is he blaming me?
In fact, Zhai Yuan really didn’t notice that Deng Leling was still in the corner. His attention was now completely on the several big men around him.

"Brothers, this is where I live," Zhai Yuan introduced.

Shangguan Yonggan and his companions looked at the environment of the housing estate and were amazed. "Young man, the conditions where you live are not as good as those in our village. At least it is spacious. It seems that your family is also in a difficult situation."

Zhai Yuan chuckled and thought to himself, this is pretty good, you haven't seen a pigeon cage yet.

"Brother Gan, other big brothers. It's really not easy for me in Hong Kong. In fact, I was originally a film director. The upstairs is where I show my movies."

Standing downstairs of the housing estate, Zhai Yuan sighed and prepared to start playing the victim.

Unexpectedly, just as he started, he was interrupted by Shangguan Yonggan with a smile.

"Don't lie to me, young man. I've seen movies before. They were shown in the courtyard of the commune with a big screen. How can you show a movie in your place?"

Being honest also has its disadvantages, it's a bit too self-centered.

Zhai Yuan tried hard to explain, and finally made these people believe him, and then continued:
"But recently, a group of hooligans and bullies suddenly showed up and tried to steal my business..."

When he said this, he looked around and noticed Deng Leling, who looked lonely in the corner.

Zhai Yuan took a few quick steps, hugged Deng Leling's slender waist, and shouted angrily: "You want to steal my wife!"

Deng Leling opened her mouth in surprise. Zhai Yuan looked straight at her, slapped her on the buttocks, and whispered "cooperate".

The slap made her legs go weak for some reason, and she leaned dizzy in Zhai Yuan's arms.

On the other side, Shangguan Yonggan and his companions were already furious after hearing what Zhai Yuan said!
Capitalism is too much! How can there still be people who dare to bully men and women these days? If this happened in our village, I would have strangled them to death, twisted them into a knot, and buried them in a pit!
"Let's go! Go up and take a look!"

It was a rare opportunity for Shangguan Yonggan to meet a like-minded person with whom he could communicate in Hong Kong. When he heard that Shangguan Yonggan was being bullied, he immediately wanted to go upstairs.

"Brother, forget it."

Zhai Yuan hugged Deng Leling, stood still, and said something hypocritically.

He sighed and said, "They are numerous and powerful, and they are local bandits and bullies. We can't afford to offend them."

"Oh, you're a bandit and a bully."

Shangguan Yonggan laughed so hard that his mouth couldn't stop, and his four companions also laughed out loud.

"I'm the captain of the village militia, and I fight against bandits and bullies!"

……

Zhai Yuan still held Deng Leling's hand tightly, and walked around from time to time, but his eyes were fixed on the corridor on the second floor.

Shangguan Yonggan brought the man named Weixing into the video room.

Wang Tuqiang and the two brothers Zhang Yaowen and Zhang Yaowu stayed outside and did not go in.

"Only two people went in. Is that okay?"

Zhai Yuan had heard from Chen Jiale before that there were at least 20 to 30 hooligans causing trouble in every video hall, and after all, two fists are no match for four hands when a fight breaks out.

Just as I thought of this, I heard a commotion coming from the video room on the second floor.

Shouting and cursing were mixed with the sound of tables and chairs being knocked over.

Bang! With a dull thud, a scoundrel in a flowered shirt flew out of the video room with his feet off the ground.

His back hit the railing of the corridor balcony, and before he could react, a pair of large hands had grabbed his neck.

Just like catching a chicken, Wang Tuqiang and the other two who were guarding outside picked up the gangster who was thrown out of the video room and threw him directly downstairs.

Bang! On the three-meter-high floor, the scoundrel fell heavily onto the concrete floor, making a heart-pounding thud.

Deng Leling was frightened by the scene, screamed, and subconsciously hugged Zhai Yuan.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid."

Zhai Yuan gently stroked her back, comforting her from top to bottom.

He looked towards the second floor and saw several fellow villagers moving quickly and fiercely. In a blink of an eye, another four or five hooligans were thrown downstairs.

Just like dumplings.

Zhai Yuan pursed his lips, what great skills.

The Five Patriarchs of Shaolin, tough!
