The thunderous applause began.
It was the first time the crew members—including Old Yang, who knew a lot about German Shepherds—had ever seen a dog fight using their legs.
The crowd enthusiastically clapped and cheered for Famous. Many people had recorded the fight and were ready to upload the videos online. Feng Xuan thought that the fight could be included as a behind-the-scenes feature for the movie.
Famous didn"t think it was a big deal just because the Tibetan Mastiff was big in size. The Tibetan Mastiff was worse than the wolves in the mountains when it came down to its brutality.
Seeing their Mastiff King fall to the ground, the other Tibetan Mastiffs in were restless their iron cages. Their mayhem made the retired German Shepherds restless. The whole location was filled with barking, combined with the noises of the crowd.
Famous tilted its head and howled towards the sky, "Ow-woo!"
A hush fell over the crowd. The German Shepherds and the Tibetan Mastiffs and didn"t dare to make a sound as they all looked at Famous in awe.
The crowd was shocked by its howl. A few nosey people ran towards Zhang Zian and asked him, "Zhang, is Famous a dog or a wolf? Why did it howl like a wolf?"
I"m just as confused as you are, Zhang Zian said in his head. He didn"t know how to answer, but Old Yang was very pleased and said, "You know nothing! Only the best German Shepherds could inherit the characteristics of their ancestors, the wolves."
Someone refuted, "Don"t lie to me, Master Yang. My friend sells German Shepherds, and he says that the reverted gene is reflected in the long-haired German Shepherd, Famous is a short-haired German Shepherd"
Old Yang chuckled, "You only know part of the truth. The police dog training base introduces a number of German Shepherds as male breeders from Germany at high prices every several years. These male breeders are better than the German Shepherds at your friend"s kennel. Among all the descendants of these breeders, one out of every four German Shepherds is long-haired or medium-haired. Are you saying that these male breeders have a bad bloodline? This is the very proof that their bloodline is closer to their ancestors. German Shepherds who serve as police dogs have different requirements than those kept as pets."
Zhang Zian had also heard that short-haired German Shepherds would produce long-haired German Shepherds that no one wanted as pets. They were, however, good breeders because they had inherited the purebred gene from their ancestors. Another feature of the long-haired German Shepherd, the two black spots on its tongue.
Famous neither had long hair nor black spots on its tongue. Its skull and body were almost half the size of Red Dragon"s and Prince"s, so Famous didn"t expect to win any dog shows. According to Old Yang, who had witnessed the degeneration of German Shepherds, Famous was one of the last remaining German Shepherd worth tens of thousands of euros.
That person who refuted Old Yang a moment ago was quick-witted. He immediately turned to Zhang Zian and whispered, "Zhang, is your Famous still single?"
Zhang Zian was furious. Pointing to himself, he said, "I am single. Will the crew find a woman to be my wife?"
The person was speechless.
The Mastiff King was kicked four times and electrocuted by the power grid, but it was still conscious. It just couldn"t stand up for the time being. When it looked at Famous, there was a flicker of fear in its eyes.
Famous jumped out of the power grid and walked to the front of the iron cages that held the rest of the Tibetan Mastiffs.
The Tibetan Mastiffs, who were nothing, but fierce since the moment they arrived, were bowing their heads. One or two of them even lied on the ground, exposing their most bellies to show their submission.
"This ...is it done? Will the dogs" safety be ensured now?" Feng Xuan asked Old Yang and Zhang Zian.
Old Yang nodded his head. "Yes. Rest a.s.sured, dogs have a strict hierarchy system, n.o.body defies it. Unless some dog has the confidence to challenge Famous, it shouldn"t change."
According to Old Yang, everyone watched when a litter of puppies was born in the police dog training base. Puppies from the same litter had already started to compete for leaders.h.i.+p.
There was no difference in gender, until a male pup surpa.s.sed the others and became the staff"s focus.
When the cubs grew up, an experienced trainer would be able to recognize which one was the leader because it was first in line when entering and exiting the kennel. The last dog was the one with the lowest position in the dog group. If a dog tried to disrupt the order, it would be scolded or attacked by the leader.
No matter how impressive the Tibetan Mastiffs were, they were still dogs.
Other people chatted with Old Yang enthusiastically, praising Famous. Liu and w.a.n.g also admired Famous, as they finally became aware of the difference between it and their dogs.
Zhang Zian walked around the power grid and to the Mastiff King. He bent down to observe the beast through the barbed wire. It tried to stand several times, but its injuries and twitching muscles prevented it from doing so.
Smelling Famous on Zhang Zian, it glanced at him with resentment and disgust before turning its head.
Zhang Zian was not here to enjoy the loser"s misery, he was just pondering.
During the Tibetan Mastiff"s popular period, a well-known proverb had been circulating, in China, a rich man needed to marry a beautiful woman, own a Lamborghini, a luxury villa, a purebred horse, and the largest, fiercest Tibetan Mastiff.
This Mastiff King was undoubtedly the largest and fiercest of the Tibetan Mastiffs.
Now that the Tibetan Mastiff had been beat, where was his wife and Lamborghini?
Feng Xuan had some concerns at the beginning, but the shooting went smoothly, especially the scene where the group of Tibetan Mastiffs attacked the police dogs. If the Tibetan Mastiffs revealed a sliver of their wild nature, Famous would put them in their place.
This was the most difficult scene to film in the whole movie, but miraculously, it took only three takes before Feng Xuan was satisfied. Not only did it save the money for making special effects, but it had also fully demonstrated the scary images of these beasts that wandered the Western border, attacking humans and other animals. As for whether this scene can make people aware of the problem, Feng Xuan could only hope for the best and let fate do the rest.
