Stephen Chow China Traditional Kung Fu Master

Among all Stephen Chow's works, Kung Fu can be said to be the essence of Zhou's comedy. It is neither absurd to death in the early stage, nor over-commercialization and kernel loss in the later stage.

Audiences often like to say, "There are no supporting roles in Stephen Chow's films, and every little person is the protagonist of life." It is more appropriate to put this sentence in Kung Fu.

Whether it's a vicious charterer, a coquettish charterer, a dumb girl with a stall, an unscrupulous fire demon, or even a coquettish buck-toothed Jane, a scholar wearing gold-rimmed glasses on a bus, etc.

Every vivid character, their appearance has their own "mission" in the film, which makes people unforgettable. In the poor building in the play, there are three kung fu masters, namely, Goro Bagua, who runs a breakfast shop, twelve tan legs, who sell coolies, and an iron fist, who runs a tailor shop.

Let's talk about Zhao Zhiling, a shy iron fist athlete in red underwear.

In reality, he is a real martial arts expert, and his boxing is famous overseas. Zhao Zhiling was born in a martial arts family, and his parents are both martial arts practitioners. His father, Zhao Jiao, is not only a master in Zhao Zhiling, but also a legendary figure in Hong Kong martial arts. Zhao Jue studied martial arts with Huang Feihong's apprentice Lin Shirong in his early years, and regarded Hongquan as his own martial arts.

So in terms of seniority, Zhao Zhiling is the great-grandson of Huang Feihong. I learned a lot of Zhao religion, and later settled down, opened a martial arts school and spread my martial arts to all parts of the world.

As a child, Zhao Zhiling grew up in this rich martial arts atmosphere, and it was natural that he later became a martial arts master. It is said that "martial arts can be divided into three parts", and then he went to Zhao Zhiling's home, and he still mastered the function of lighting a light.

In those days, Hong Kong martial arts films were in full swing, and many martial arts actors were injured, so they would come to him to get medicine at Yiguang's home. In the long run, Zhao Zhiling, who has real kung fu and frequent contact with film and television circles, also became interested in being an actor.

Since 16 years old, Zhao Zhiling has been working hard on Shaw movies. For example, in Jackie Chan's classic kung fu film "The Snake Carver", Liang, the martial arts master played, hit a swollen face and pretended to be fat. In order to keep the students who came to register, he broke the blue brick and almost broke his hand. Regardless of acting skills, this body is a hundred times stronger than countless "kung fu masters" who cheat the world.

However, in the movie "Five Lucky Stars", Zhao Zhiling, who is skilled in martial arts, is much cuter. I saw him wearing a white T-shirt that read "Zhao Zhiling Martial Arts School", standing on the side of the road and laughing at street performer Cao Dahua. As a result, the curly hair at the back was incited by everyone and went up and severely buckled Master Zhao's head. At this time, Sammo Hung said a classic line: "Master Zhao, do you dare to fight?"

Then curly was beaten by master Zhao. This line was relished by the audience because of the funny plot. Although he plays mostly insignificant small roles, Zhao Zhiling's real kung fu also makes his relationship with martial arts stars very tense.

For example, Jackie Chan and Sammo Hung are good friends of Zhao Zhiling. Outside the set, these three people have no status, and they often ask Zhao Zhiling for advice on kung fu. In the movie, Sammo Hung's fist is so powerful that Zhao Zhiling is indispensable behind the scenes.

Stephen Chow is going to shoot kung fu, and he urgently needs a real martial artist to play it. Zhao Zhiling has always wanted to promote China Wushu, and this film is the best platform. The two hit it off and joined forces. In the movie, he plays an iron fist master who lives in seclusion in the downtown area. His fist is powerful and dignified. Many people may think that this kind of boxing with iron rings on the arm is the "secret of martial arts" invented in the movie.

But in fact, there is an iron fist in reality, which is one of the representative boxing methods of Hong Boxing Department. Zhao Zhiling is really throwing caution to the wind in the movie to make China famous for its martial arts. During the filming, his hand bone was directly fractured, and a rib was broken. The other injuries, large and small, were even more difficult to count.

Apart from admirable kung fu, he has no consciousness of "cherishing feathers". Not only was she scolded for wearing red underwear, but she also stood on tiptoe and ran out of the girlish atmosphere, which was remarkable for breaking through the self-scale. Later, when I mentioned this classic character, Zhao Zhiling just smiled casually and said he had no regrets. After all, in the eyes of the older generation, it is basic to do and love one thing, and actors have to look like actors.

Since then, Zhao Zhiling has become a frequent visitor to Stephen Chow films, starring in The Journey to the West and The Mermaid.
