Chapter 82: Stand alone

At this moment, the training ground was empty, with only slight noises coming from the corner.

A middle-aged man in his forties, wearing a military coat, was limping as he swept fallen leaves and snow.

This middle-aged man is Du Sheng’s adoptive father Huang Deli.

If he had not inherited the memories of his previous life, he would never have been able to imagine that the ordinary middle-aged man in front of him was actually the grandson of Huang Sihai, the fourth-generation master of Bajimen.

He is the most authentic descendant of Bajiquan!

Unfortunately, as the qigong craze faded, martial arts schools also suffered a considerable impact.

There are fewer and fewer people seeking to learn martial arts, and the business of martial arts schools is becoming increasingly quiet.

Du Sheng's footsteps broke the silence of the martial arts hall. Huang Deli put down the broom in his hand and turned around.

His face was full of traces of time, and he was a little surprised to see Du Sheng:
"Why do you have time to come back today?"

Du Sheng's emotions were in turmoil. He put down his cigarettes and alcohol, smiled and walked to Huang Deli to take the broom:

"The crew has finished filming. I haven't been back for a long time. I came back to take a look."

He took out a thick stack of banknotes and stuffed it into Huang Deli's hand:
"I made some money during this period, so this is a little gift for you."

Huang Deli grinned, as if he could sense Du Sheng's sadness, and patted his shoulder with his rough, calloused hands and said:
"Don't be sad. I've seen a lot of storms. It's common for a martial arts school to have no students. There are still tens of millions of people unemployed during the downturn.

Your master, I still have a martial arts school to stand on, so I have a roof over my head."

At this point, he looked at the several thousand dollars Du Sheng had stuffed in:

"Haven't you always wanted to invest in a movie? Why don't you save it?"

"Respecting the master is a matter of course."

Du Sheng knew that Huang Deli was guarding this martial arts school alone, not for the sake of having a roof over his head,
It is purely to guard the past honor and the days when Huang's Bajiquan was once dominant.

Before, he worked as a martial artist and designed moves for others, just to make a living.

It is always difficult for such a person to bow to the cruel reality.

Du Sheng did not say anything and pushed out a yellow-orange wheelchair from behind:
"You've always liked collecting antiques, haven't you? This is an antique wheelchair made of rosewood. It will be more convenient for you to go out in the future."

Huang Deli looked at Du Sheng, whom he hadn't seen for more than two months, and a warm feeling surged in his heart.

He has run a martial arts school for many years and has accepted hundreds of disciples, but as time passed, he has lost contact with most of them.

Only this abandoned child would come back to give some tribute as long as he made money.

"Time flies so fast. I didn't expect that you can stand on your own in the blink of an eye."

Huang Deli said with emotion:

“Keep this money, you still have a long way to go.

But there is one thing you have to remember, no matter where you go, don't forget to practice boxing, because that is your root."

Du Sheng did not answer, but took out a row of silver needles and changed the subject:

"Recently, I learned acupuncture from an old military doctor, who said it has the effect of 'pushing the uterus and activating blood circulation'..."

"Oh?"

Huang Deli was indeed aroused with some interest:
"Then we should try it."

Du Sheng half squatted down and began to give acupuncture to the atrophied part of Huang Deli's right leg.

This is the Tuigong Huoxue chapter of the Tianji Lingshu Jing. It uses acupuncture and massage techniques on meridian points outside the body to improve blood circulation, dredge meridians, and stimulate the improvement of hidden diseases.

Huang Deli felt a tingling sensation, with some surprise in his eyes.

Seeing how skillfully Du Sheng performed the acupuncture, it was obvious that he did not look like a novice.

People who don't have some knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine may not even know how to use acupuncture techniques such as twisting, lifting, etc., let alone identify the acupuncture points.

"My skills are limited. I think I need to try a few more times before there will be some effect."

Half an hour later, Du Sheng breathed a sigh of relief and stopped.

Acupuncture requires full concentration, otherwise one may accidentally pierce the wrong spot, and massaging is very exhausting.

Even if his overall rating improves to E-, it will be difficult to last long.

"It's okay. I'm old now, and I don't expect to recover."

Huang Deli smiled calmly and didn't take it seriously.

Du Sheng knew that the old man said he would give up his Kung Fu, but he didn't mean to. Seeing that it was getting dark, he cooked for himself and had a few drinks with the old man, which was quite relaxing.

He bought another batch of food and stored it until Wang Yaoyang called, and then he said goodbye.

After going out, he bowed deeply to the martial arts hall and turned to leave.

……

"Cousin, are you here? Get ready for rehearsal tomorrow."

As soon as I got in the car, a slightly cheerful text message popped up on QQ.

Liu Yifei originally planned to give Du Sheng a surprise, but she couldn't help herself and picked up her phone when her mother wasn't paying attention.

Du Sheng smiled, having guessed something, and said:
"We're rushing over tonight, have you arrived yet?"

"Get ready to board the plane. It will arrive tomorrow morning."

"Then it's not appropriate to play with your phone. Let's talk about it when we meet."

"Yeah ^_^"

Liu Yifei hid her phone again with a little anticipation.

Wang Yaoyang saw Du Sheng put down his phone and said:

"Another agency has contacted me recently. Are you really not going to sign a contract?"

Huayi, Bestar, Zhongyao...

They are all considered powerful film and television agencies in the country. Under normal circumstances, many people would be eager to sign with them to get access to their resources.

And what about Du Sheng?

When others come to him to ask about his intentions, he remains unshakable.

What a fucking monster.

You don't really want to go down this path to the end, do you?

Du Sheng looked out the window at the night, without raising his head, and said:

"No rush, let's wait until "Tian Long" is released."

It's not that he's not anxious, he's just able to keep his composure.

Wang Yaoyang did not have the ability to predict the future and had no idea how popular the subsequent film "Snow Goddess Dragon" would be.

What's more, there is "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" as a backing.

Although Du Sheng's role in this Jin Yong martial arts epic is only the fourth male lead, he believes that he has the opportunity to take advantage of the drama to achieve a leap in his acting career.

When the two are combined, the effect is extraordinary, and a sharp increase in value next year is inevitable.

Du Sheng has grand plans for the future, and he will be more confident when choosing how to move forward.

In addition, if you want to gain a foothold in the entertainment industry, you do need the protection of a company or artist team.

Only in this way can you avoid being controlled by others and better develop your career.

As for resources?

You don’t have to rely on others. Sometimes you can also be a resource.

Du Sheng already has some ideas in his mind. When he has accumulated enough capital and connections, it will depend on whether he can succeed.

At worst, you can set up a studio first and make breakthroughs step by step.

Then, with their foresight and abilities, they can recruit some artists who will become very popular in the future and create a circle that belongs to them alone.

Of course.

These are still a bit far away.

After all, we have just started and there is still a long way to go.

"With the two dramas "Snow Goddess Dragon" and "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" as a foundation, it should be able to take root."

Du Sheng's eyes flickered:

"If I can become famous with my role, then even if I don't have enough money to invest, it should be easy for me to play the leading role in a small-budget drama or the second male lead in a popular drama..."

As for picking up scripts to extract top-notch special skills, there will be some in the future...
