The golden sun looks like an uncooked hard-boiled egg. The light yellow and light yellow color looks delicious under the light blue sky background. It slowly climbs up little by little, just like The second hand of the watch is normal, approaching the twelve o'clock noon scale.

However, the towering, jagged skyline of New York is like the steps of Tianmen Mountain. No matter how you climb, no matter how you move forward, you can never see the end. The big boiled egg crawls and climbs. I was beginning to get tired, panting, and the falling sunlight became weak, and in a blink of an eye I was submerged in the bustling traffic of the city.

The scattered, criss-cross alleys of Lower Manhattan/City are like giants wandering on the calm sea, with arms and legs outstretched, lazily bathing in the sun, enjoying the tranquility of the morning, one after another. There was the sound of fish and shrimp playing in the sea, full of vigor and vitality.

Andrew Garfield looked at the surrounding streets with curious eyes. The stalls of stalls that were being withdrawn on both sides of the street were filled with all kinds of old Shang/Haishi gadgets, dressing boxes, dinner bags, and hair. Hairpins, rattles, music boxes, etc. are dazzling; a middle-aged man in a neat suit next to him is bargaining, holding a red plastic bag in his hand, unwilling to let go, and it’s not clear that there is a bag of vegetables or meat inside. The shabby and mottled buildings look like slums, but the carved red pillars, the raised eaves of the cross-ridged roof, and the square-shaped glass windows are full of an indescribable taste.

In a trance, Andrew seemed to have entered the world of "Doctor Who", shuttled through time and space, and entered another completely different universe, and his sight was simply too busy.

Hey, I stepped on a pool of water stains under my feet, the muddy sewage splashed, wet the pants, and the canvas shoes under my feet were also wet. This made Andrew subconsciously jump up and try to avoid it. Stepping on another puddle of mud, the sticky feeling spread across the soles of the feet, which was really uncomfortable.

"Andrew." A greeting came from the front, and Armando-Alarcon (Armando-) beckoned to tell Andrew to hurry up to follow.

Andrew couldn't take care of his shoes anymore, he ran all the way to chase him, and he saw the busy and noisy street corners from his line of sight, and a smell of sea rushed over his face. The strong and pungent smell made people conditioned and frowned. , I can’t wait to pinch his nose, turn around and run away, it's like a biochemical weapon. But Andrew also showed curiosity. He looked over, but only had time to catch a glimpse of a picture fragment, like an open-air seafood market. His footsteps dragged the scenery in his line of sight into a narrow and steep staircase.

This is an ordinary small door, with a black plaque hanging in front of the door with the Chinese font of "Dragon Feifengwu" written on it. Andrew can't understand at all, he can only vaguely recognize that it is four characters. Following in Armando's footsteps, he walked into the small door, climbed up the steps, and came to the second floor. A spacious space appeared in sight.

On the right is a large bright window, and on the left is a whole mirror with some cushions scattered in the middle. Apart from that, there is nothing left. On the right side, two people are squatting; then one person in front of the left is mopping the floor, deserted and not lively at all. It looks a bit like a ballet classroom, but the equipment is not complete.

"Armando?" Andrew asked curiously, "Isn't it about Chinese Kung Fu? Why does this look like a taekwondo classroom?"

"Martial arts is martial arts, Taekwondo is taekwondo. These are two completely different things. Taekwondo is now more like a sport, and has no practical meaning, and there is no need to learn." Armando simply introduced, Andrew seemed to understand. Nodded non-understandably.

He is a personal trainer, mainly an authority on physical fitness, style repair, and fitness. But at the same time, he has also traveled to Asia to learn martial arts many times, and has developed a keen interest in this. However, martial arts requires years of exercise and persistence. Any laziness cannot reach the top level. This is not his main job, but only as a development of interest.

For Westerners, the East is always mysterious. They can’t distinguish the details of Eastern culture. It’s a common occurrence that they can’t distinguish between India and Indonesia, nor can they find the location of North Korea and South Korea. Therefore, asking them to distinguish between martial arts and taekwondo is really difficult. However, Armando will not make such a mistake.

In order to shoot "The Amazing Spider-Man", Andrew has been learning with Armando for the past five months. In addition, he has also learned many skills such as skateboarding, parkour, trampoline, basketball, gymnastics and so on. This time, Armando made a special trip to bring Andrew to visit the martial arts hall, just to learn martial arts in the next two months.

"Give me a favor." A voice suddenly came from the left hand side. Both Andrew and Armando were startled and cast their sights. Only then did they see that the young man who was mopping the floor did not know when he had approached them, a little bit. There was no sound of footsteps. He was holding a long mop in his hand with a lazy and helpless expression, "Please put the sole of your foot on the mop and wipe it clean, okay?"

The words were very polite, but the tone was procrastinated and listless, and it didn't sound friendly at all.

But Andrew and Armando didn't care. They hurried forward and wiped the soles of their feet clean. Andrew looked at his dirty canvas shoes with a jerky and apologetic smile, "Sorry."

The young man did not answer, but directly explained, "Those who come to learn martial arts, go there and squat on horses; those who come to find friends, there is a waiting area at the door; those who come to consult, there is a poster at the door on the first floor." After finishing speaking, The young man lowered his head again and began to mop the floor honestly.

Andrew blinked, obviously not figuring out what was going on, and cast his gaze towards Armando.

Armando was also a little flustered. He was also introduced by a friend, and he didn't know the situation. I just heard that this "Liu's Martial Arts Center" is a hidden master in Manhattan's Chinatown.

In terms of fame, there are quite a few martial arts schools in Chinatown that learn Chinese martial arts. The two most prosperous martial arts are even more crowded. The martial arts centers can keep 20 to 30 people studying all the year round; but Armando knows those They are just ostentatious, in order to satisfy people's curiosity, or to cater to market demand, it is like a tourist attraction, a group of people join in the fun. If you want to learn the real thing, you not only need to avoid the crowd, but also need to be introduced by acquaintances.

"Liu's Martial Arts Center" is not well-known, but Armando's friends are full of praise. His original words are "Even a little apprentice is hidden."

"Excuse me, is Master Liu here?" Armando tried to communicate and found the master here directly.

The filming of "The Amazing Spider-Man" started two weeks ago, and Andrew didn't have much time, so he could only spare a little time every day to come and receive training, so as to meet more requirements of the crew as much as possible. Therefore, Armando needs to communicate with the master face to face to see if he can find a more suitable time.

The young man stopped and turned around to look at Andrew and Armando. "The first rule of Liu's martial arts school is to come and learn martial arts or visit the master. You must either squat by the side for 30 minutes or challenge martial arts. A person in the hall, after passing the customs, we will sit down and talk slowly."

What's the rule?

Andrew only felt full of question marks, but Armando was not surprised. When he traveled in China before, he had seen even stranger requests. Armando turned his head and looked at Andrew, "What do you think?" They only have three hours this morning. Andrew still needs to go back to the rehearsal in the afternoon. Tomorrow, he will shoot the first scene of Diaovia in front of the green screen.

Andrew didn't know why. According to his past character, he is very willing to squat by the side for thirty minutes. But time is too tight today. Andrew thought about it carefully. In the past five months, he has received all kinds of training. He can't be said to be a master of martial arts, but he is no longer a rookie. He can deal with ordinary fights. , There should be no problem. He is confident.

"Excuse me, if I challenge you, who do I have to fight against?" If it is against someone who has been practicing martial arts for many years, even if it is an apprentice, Andrew will inevitably hesitate.

For Westerners, Chinese Kungfu is not only mysterious, but also profound, flying in the sky and omnipotent. The reason why "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" has swept across the Western world and has maintained the highest box office record for foreign-language films in North America is because Li/An shot the martial arts world in the eyes of Westerners.

The young man looked at Andrew up and down, curled his lips, "Just with the new amateurs."

Such a scene looks really funny. A young man with a mop at UU Reading www.uukanshu.com looks like a cleaner, and he can’t even identify whether the other party is a staff member of the martial arts gym, or an apprentice, but Andrew and Armando accepted instructions in front of him.

But the young man appeared contented, turned around and looked at the two who were squatting, and thought for a while, "You, you are talking about, come here." These thoughtless words worked, but they worked. One of them stood up, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and walked over. The young man turned his head and looked at Andrew, "You can compete with him. He has been here for two weeks and has been squatting. Ma Bu, I started learning piling four days ago, not even the basics. You two fight against each other. If you can knock him down three times, I will ask the master to come out."

Knocked down three times? A novice who has only studied for two weeks?

Andrew relaxed, his strong confidence made him straighten his waist and raise his chest, but the next second, he was astonished. Looking at the person in front of him, his pupils were getting bigger and bigger, and his face was full. The astonishment could not be concealed, "This...that..." He looked at Armando, then at the young man, trying to find an answer, but Armando looked puzzled, the young man looked calm, and only Andrew fell into it. In shock.

In this short period of time, the other party walked in front of him, "Good morning, I am Lan Li, please advise."
