Speaking of Hong Kong martial arts instructors, everyone knows Yuan Ping and Yuan Baye. But in fact, there is another martial artist who does not lose to Yuan Heping in martial arts instruction, but his reputation is far inferior to Yuan Heping, which is Liu Jialiang. Liu Jialiang's father, Liu Zhan, was a disciple of Huang Feihong's disciple Lin Shirong, who learned martial arts from his father since childhood, learning the true kung fu of hard bridges and hard horses, not the Liyuan martial arts of "fist to shrink hand, gun to head".
At the age of 16, he entered the film and television circle and began to do behind the scenes, became a martial arts actor at the age of 19, began to serve as a martial arts instructor at the age of 29, participated in the production of "South Dragon and North Phoenix", "Yun hai yu bow edge", and then became a director to shoot "Shen Da", "Elders", "Shaolin Thirty-Six Rooms", "North and South Shaolin" and so on. Years of participation in the production of kung fu films, he has cooperated with many kung fu stars, and Jet Li is no exception.
In the film and television circle, he has gained a large number of fans with his kung fu and guidance ability. It also has its own position in the film and television circle, and has also set up its own team "Liu JiaBan". In 1990, he served as the action director of the American film "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles", the first Chinese martial arts instructor in Hollywood, and Jackie Chan's "Drunken Fist 2" was also the martial arts director of Liu Jialiang.
Liu Jialiang also left many classic kung fu films directed or directed by him, in addition to the above works, there are also "Skinny Tiger Fat Dragon", "Eighteen Martial Arts", "Goro Bagua Stick", "Wuguan" and so on. He reduced his performances in 1995 due to physical problems, but still participated in "Seven Swords" in 2005, and also won the Lifetime Achievement Award at the 29th Hong Kong Film Awards, which is an affirmation of his lifelong contribution to Hong Kong kung fu films.
At the funeral, there were disciples of the Nine Gate Sect to bid farewell to the martial arts master Liu Jialiang, as well as his apprentices from all over the world who knelt to bid farewell to the master, Zheng Shaoqiu greeted the visitors at the door of his disciple's funeral home, Wang Mingquan Luo Jiaying attended in the film and television circle, and Zhen Zidan also arrived at the scene with a solemn face.
In addition, there were Feng Baobao, Guo Xiuyun, Noon Ma, Bai Biao, Mai Jia, etc. to bid farewell, and 3 filial piety masters and 9 vegetarian lions of the Nine Gate Sect at the funeral ceremony, and 12 lions sent off Liu Jialiang.
It can be said that Liu Jialiang is still highly respected in everyone's heart, in order to have such a solemn funeral. But Jet Li and Jackie Chan, who had worked with Liu Jialiang, did not show up, and Jackie Chan just sent a wreath. Jet Li did not show any expression, to know that Jet Li's first Hong Kong film was to cooperate with Liu Jialiang. The "Drunken Fist 2" that opened the door to Hollywood for Jackie Chan was also a martial arts instructor for Liu Jialiang with him.
The behavior of the two is indeed a bit unreasonable, Jet Li should at least send a wreath, Jackie Chan should also be present, in fact, there is a reason, Jackie Chan and Jet Li, although they have cooperated with Liu Jialiang, but the cooperation is not pleasant.
Jet Li's "North and South Shaolin" when he first came to Hong Kong was directed by Liu Jialiang, but all the martial arts actors in the entire crew except Jet Li were paid tens of thousands, and some even 150,000. For this film Jet Li suffered a very serious injury in the shooting, spinal misalignment, severe strain of the back muscles, and a crack in the fifth lumbar spine.
Jet Li, who was so desperate, only had a salary of 3 yuan a day, and at that time, the crew even ran a dragon set to play a dead body for 50 yuan a day. Because Liu Jialiang was given to Jet Li according to the film remuneration system in the mainland at that time. At that time, everyone in the mainland was paid such a film, and a bowl of water duanping also said in the past.
In Hong Kong, Jet Li took the salary of the mainland, watched those people work more easily than him, took his salary a hundred times, deceived people too much, which made Jet Li bear it. There is also jet Li and other mainland workers eating a simple lunch. And the Hong Kong staff eats Cantonese cuisine based on chicken and duck, which is not only a matter of money, but also a matter of dignity. It is because of these things that Jet Li no longer cooperates with Liu Jialiang after "North and South Shaolin". Although many years have passed since this incident, Jet Li, who has always been broad-minded, still cannot let go
It can be seen how much this incident hurt him at that time, and when Jackie Chan entered the industry in the early years, he still had great respect for his predecessor Liu Jialiang. However, he clashed with Liu Jialiang during "Drunken Fist 2".
"Drunken Fist 2" was filmed for the establishment of the Action Stunt Performers Guild, and the male and female protagonists Jackie Chan and Mei Yanfang were all paid 0 performances. There were also many big stars at that time to make cameos such as Dillon Andy Lau, etc., and when filming this movie, Jackie Chan wanted his own special funny kung fu comedy, and Liu Jialiang, as the fourth generation of Huang Feihong, wanted the traditional martial arts style, and the two styles were opposite, resulting in a very big conflict between the two.
The two were said to have quarreled very badly at the time, and Liu Jialiang left the crew when he was halfway through the filming of "Drunken Fist 2". It is rumored that jackie Chan was injured when he was filming with Liu Jialiang before, and it was very dangerous to shoot a martial arts scene at that time, and he could not move too fakely, but he could not be brutal. Jackie Chan is very careful about the scenes, but Liu Jialiang often does not care, did not control himself much, caused Jackie Chan to be injured, and his brother Hong Jinbao was also injured by him, which may be one of the reasons for the discomfort in his heart.
So Liu Jialiang's funeral, he only sent a wreath to show that with the death of Liu Jialiang himself, his life's grace and resentment have also disappeared, missing him, is nostalgic for the era of kung fu films, this old man also has an indelible contribution to kung fu films.
