When you see a bamboo forest, will you immediately think of martial arts? Magic, this is an exclusive impression of China. It actually originated from a drama of great origin in Chinese film history. It was the eternal bamboo forest duel presented to the world by martial arts master Hu Jinquan in 1970. This scene has a great influence. Ang Lee paid tribute, Zhang Yimou paid tribute, and Lu Yang paid tribute. The bamboo forest is deep, but Hu Jinquan took the deepness as a circle and made the bamboo forest a fatal desperate situation. He first photographed his emptiness. The sunlight was like a barrier under the separation of the night, and the white mist was floating. The depth could give rise to bamboo forest phobia. Then a killer in red appeared deep in the bamboo. Hu Jinquan's clever photography made the killer in red about 20 meters away from the camera. The touch of red looks both secret and abrupt, and looks so dangerous under the mysterious background of the bamboo forest.
"Bamboo grows in the wilderness, and a little cloud is towering for hundreds of times." After several generations of Chinese directors' interpretations, the image of the bamboo forest has gradually pointed to the "secret" of the martial arts world. Some people talk about secret matters in the bamboo forest, some people ponder and practice in the bamboo forest, some people test their true hearts in the bamboo forest, and some people return to their innocence in the bamboo forest. The deep bamboo forest not only symbolizes the unpredictable nature of people's hearts, but also symbolizes the mysterious and unpredictable nature of martial arts.
Another scene in the martial arts world that is deeply rooted in people's hearts is the desert. The lonely smoke in the desert is straight, and the sun sets in the long river is round. For warriors, the desert is even more sinister than a bamboo forest. Walking in it, the scorching heat is exposed to the sun, there is no vitality, the mouth is dry and the future is bleak. No matter how powerful the martial arts are, they must withstand the test of survival. To defeat him, they can only experience loneliness step by step. In "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", Guo Jing walked out of the desert with a top expert like Ouyang Feng, and Guo Jing was born in the desert and spent his childhood here. The environment tempered his strong will throughout his life.
In martial arts movies, the battles in the desert are often bright, with wide surroundings and no doubt at a glance. When encountering the enemy, there is only close contact with each other, nowhere to hide or escape. When Wong Kar-wai shoots the duel in the desert, he will repeatedly point the camera at the sun, and use the overexposure to convey the dazzling feeling of cool sunshine. When shooting a battle, he never lets you see clearly how people fight. He either uses frame drawing or only pats the face, and allows the shadow to repeatedly block the camera, using chaotic and discomfortable techniques to destroy the pleasure of fighting, in order to allow the audience to deeply experience the hardships and pains of fighting in the desert, including hand-to-hand combat, bone disease, liver marrow, and flowing into the wild and not killing the last person until the last person, and he cannot breathe for a moment. Therefore, coming to the desert is a time to test your true abilities.
"I don't know where will it be after passing this desert?" "It's another desert." This is a conversation between a completely different pair of people, one is optimistic, one is pessimistic, one is forward, and the other is stopped. The real martial arts always move forward. One day, they will come to this place, on the top of the mountain, and will be on the top of the mountain, overlooking the small mountains, seeing themselves, the world, this is the moment to see all living beings. "A flower, a world, a leaf, a bodhi", human nature and nature are finally united by man and nature.
