When are the first and second seasons of the television series “The Legend of Shaolin Kung Fu” (Legend of Shaolin Kungfu) was released in China on 32 channels, they attracted a record number of viewers in 28 different regions. The series has earned positive reviews in Japan, Asia, Europe and the USA.
Post-production of the third season entitled “The Legend of Shaolin Kung Fu 3: Heroes of the Great Desert” (Legend of Shaolin Kungfu 3: Heroes of the Great Desert), filmed over 8 months, mostly in Ningxia, has already finished and will be shown on Henan Satellite TV and other Chinese satellite channels in July.
Director Du Xiao (Du Xiao) said that the filming of 60 episodes “Legends of Shaolin Kung Fu 3” was a very grueling process, but the finished result is very satisfying to look at. He decided to film the series in the desert to introduce audiences to a completely new film.
When it was the coldest, the film crew even did an experiment: they poured water from a cup onto the ground, counted to 5 and, voila, the water froze.
Many team members could not stand it and quit work halfway through.
At the foot of Mount Helan there are only wild plains, for a hundred miles there is no one alive. Strong winds were constantly blowing, and a group of monks traveling through the desert looked like a pack of wolves.
Sun Hui Ning (Sun Hui Ning), who plays the main female role in the series, talks about the difficulties of filming:
As a girl, I usually have to take care of my appearance, but on the set of “The Legend of Shaolin Kung Fu 3,” if the makeup artists and director didn’t remind me, I could even forget about makeup. At that time, I was only thinking about how to sleep, this is my most “disgusting” job.
All three Li Yuan, Sun Hui Ning и Cao Jun, agreed that filming in “The Legend of Shaolin Kung Fu 3” were the most difficult compared to other roles, but, among other things, also the most memorable.
The first part of this trilogy, released in 2007, became an example of the concept of authentic kung Fu, and also an example of the quality of Henan products. And authenticity kung Fu в “Heroes of the Great Desert” shown in full.
Li Yuan, a Wushu champion playing the role of the second monk, admitted:
The director was very strict and demanding. I showed everything I've learned over the past 20 years of training, as if someone's life was on the line. For the audience this will be a real kung fu holiday.
Director Du Xiao says that there were many innovations in the third season.
From episode to episode, viewers will be treated to small surprises related to spiritual understanding. Chinese kung fu is not about fighting, it teaches morality and the development of spirituality. After finishing filming this series, I became convinced that many viewers would want to reflect on the meaning of existence.

The series is very worthy! Beautiful fights, interesting characters - just a fairy tale, not a series. I liked the story about the Mints, who rule there themselves and send cool generals on reconnaissance missions. I really liked Sammo in the seraglio. Even though he doesn’t fight, that’s not a minus. The main thing is that everything is in order with the acting skills, this is also important. He's an actor first and foremost! ))))
Note: Sammo appears on episode 54, plus he doesn’t fight. (((((((They also re-voiced him (the reason is that he has a Mandarin accent). But I don’t like this prospect. Moreover, he was always re-voiced. Bastards. ^_^
Thanks for letting the link through your secure web gate! Thank you
Thanks, I'll take a look at it too. ;)

Evil, can I ask you for permission to add a link to the series here? All episodes are in good quality. There is one minus, as always - there is no English.
It depends on which site. The comment will automatically go to spam, and then I’ll see what’s what.
The series is already on Tudou.com! Who should I give the link to? Sammo appears in episode 54. )))

Yes, I also heard it for the first time, but now I really want to watch it...
I won’t lie, my first reaction after reading the news was surprise. Surprised that "The Legend of Shaolin Kung Fu" is a series. Somehow I don’t have a very positive attitude towards the series, and in general this is the first time I’ve heard about such a series
