Save the Bachelor of Heaven

  Chapter 1470 1472 [Jin Yong martial arts drama]

  Xiang Nan then invited director Wang Wenjie. He is currently the best director in martial arts dramas in the Mainland.

  The "Heroes with White Eyebrows" in 1993 and "The Nineteenth Sister Gan" in 1996 both achieved good ratings and reputation.

In addition, his representative works include "Daranfang", "Genghis Khan", "Red Cross Squadron", "Ranger Ranger", "Su Dongpo", "Journey to Glory", etc. He can be regarded as a prolific and influential writer. Talented director.

   Because of this, Xiang Nan still thinks highly of him, and specially poached him from Qilu Satellite TV.

For the first Jin Yong drama, Xiang Nan did not choose the most well-known works such as "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", "Yi Tian Shou Long Ji", "Dragon Ba Bu", "Swordsman" and other most famous works, but chose He wrote "Liancheng Jue" as a test of water.

  Because novels such as The Condor Shooting Trilogy, Tianlong, and Xiaoao have just been adapted into TV dramas by Hong Kong and Taiwan, and they are all works with excellent reputation.

For example, "The Legend of Condor Heroes" by Gu Tianle and Li Yutong, "The Eight Parts of Heaven and Dragons" by Huang Rihua and Chen Haomin, "Swordsman" by Lu Songxian, "The Deer and Ding Tale" by Chen Xiaochun, and "The Legend of Yitian and Slaying the Dragon" by Ma Jingtao "etc.

  If Kirin Films also followed suit, and the quality was slightly lower, they would be accused of imitating others. What's more, the mainland lacks experience in martial arts drama production, so it is almost certain that the filming will be poor. In this way, causing a lot of scolding, for Kylin Films, it is thankless, and naturally it is not worth it.

   Therefore, it is better to choose an unpopular work to shoot, even if it is slightly worse, it will not be easy to compare, and the evaluation of the audience will be better.

   And "Liancheng Jue" is the unpopular unpopular among Jin Yong's novels. Only in 1980 and 1980, a movie and a TV series were filmed successively, and no one touched it at other times.

   More importantly, neither TV series nor movies have been introduced to the mainland, so for mainland audiences, this is likely to be the first time they have watched "Liancheng Jue". As long as it is made with care, I believe it should have a good reputation.

  The version starring Wu Yue and Shu Chang, although not very influential, has a very good reputation.

  …

  The script of "Liancheng Jue" was written by Xiang Nan himself. The actors were also chosen by him.

  The protagonist Di Yun is still Wu Yue. Not only is he a martial arts athlete, but he was also admitted to the Central Academy of Drama with the top performance major. It can be said that he has talent and acting skills, which are worth cultivating.

  Heroine Shui Sheng, Xiang Nan chose Chen Hao after careful consideration.

   On the one hand, among many current artists, Chen Hao's appearance is considered top-notch; on the other hand, her acting skills are also very good. In addition, she just acted in "Endless", which gave her a certain degree of popularity; on the one hand, Chen Hao served him the most attentively, and of course he had to pay back.

  The female supporting role, Qi Fang, Xiang Nan recommended Jiang Qinqin after thinking about it. Her image and temperament are full of weakness and sadness, which makes me feel pity.

  The male supporting role Ding Dian is played by Hu Jun, who plays such a tough guy just right. Ling Shuanghua is played by Zhao Mingming. With her appearance and temperament, she is just right to play this miserable beauty.

  The villain Blood Knife Patriarch is naturally Ji Chunhua, he is the best candidate for this role. As for the other villain, Hua Tiegan, he still considers playing Liu Xiaolingtong.

  Liu Xiaolingtong's acting skills are very underestimated. He is not only able to play monkeys, he can also play other roles very well. For example, the eldest son in "New Year" is cowardly, introverted and fearful, and he plays it very well. And Hua Tiegan is another classic created by him.

  In addition, Xiang Nan is also planning to play a role in the play, and he will play Wan Zhenshan. On the one hand, I have had an addiction to dramas, and on the other hand, I also assisted Wang Wenjie in filming.

   After all, mainland directors making martial arts dramas always make people a little uneasy. And Xiang Nan has decades of acting experience, so he still has some experience.

  …

   "Liancheng Jue" immediately started filming.

  From the very beginning of clothing styling, Xiang Nan participated in the design together with costumers and stylists.

  Because of the lack of experience in producing martial arts dramas in the mainland, most of the costumes are directly borrowed from ancient costumes, similar to orthodox historical dramas.

  But martial arts dramas are not orthodox historical dramas after all. It is a fairy tale for adults, with a certain mysterious color, so the clothing modeling should be freehand rather than realistic.

   Of course, it is not advisable to completely trust the horse. After entering the new century, the styles of martial arts dramas in the mainland were once eye-catching because the stylists went crazy. Unrealistic and pure freehand brushwork, let your temper fool you.

  Xiang Nan is proficient in appreciating cultural relics, calligraphy and painting, and is familiar with the clothing regulations of past dynasties. In addition, he is good at painting and has studied fashion design for a period of time. Therefore, with his participation, the shape design of "Liancheng Jue" not only has the basis of ancient prototypes, but also has certain innovations. Everyone's feedback is very positive. very good.

  …

  In May 1999, "Liancheng Jue" officially started shooting after four months of preparation.

  Although the investment in this drama is only 15 million, it is the most important work of Kylin Films. After all, the big boss Xiang Nan is busy with his work, so how dare others be lazy.

  Even Chen Hao and Jiang Qinqin spent a special period of time practicing martial arts moves, so as to avoid unsightly fights when shooting started.

  This TV series was first filmed at the Huairou Feiteng Film and Television Base on the outskirts of Yanjing. This film and television base was built in 1995 by Taiwan Feiteng Film and Television, and it is currently the largest film and television base in northern China.

   "Huan Zhu Ge Ge", "Private Visit of Kangxi Weifu", "The God of Wealth Arrives", "Yongzheng Dynasty", "Li Wei as an Official", etc. were all filmed here.

  Nowadays, Feiteng Film and Television City has also started shooting many TV series, such as "Little Li Fei Dao" starring Jiao Enjun and Xiao Qiang; "Peerless Twins" starring Su Youpeng, Lin Zhiying, and Chen Derong;

  Several groups of people gathered together, and there were as many as a thousand people. Coupled with tourists, group performers, vendors, etc., the film and television city is extremely lively.

  …

  The TV bureau immediately started shooting.

  The first filming was the plot where Di Yun and Qi Fang followed Qi Changfa into the city to meet their master uncle Wan Zhenshan.

   Qi Changfa is played by Ni Dahong. His acting skills should not be underestimated. It can be said that he is the group of people with the highest acting skills in the Mainland.

   Fortunately, Xiang Nan is not too bad, not as proficient as Ni Dahong, but he is still very familiar. Therefore, it is still possible to accept the play.

   This is already admirable. After all, he is not a professional actor, and it is really not easy to perform so well. This also put a lot of pressure on the other actors in the same crew, and none of them dared to relax.

   Even if there is no announcement, come to the crew to report. Not watching the filming, just reciting the lines and trying to figure out the characters, which also makes the atmosphere of the whole crew very good.

   Not like some crews in real life. The leading actor is fooling things, the director is fooling things, the upper beam is not upright and the lower beam is crooked, and other actors are also fooling around. The quality of the series produced is naturally conceivable.

  …

   I wish all book lovers a happy Chinese New Year, all the best, and great fortune!
