Chapter 729: The villain plays a dwarf
In North America, fans and filmmakers are discussing what the next work of "villain" Gu Xiaofan will be. [Full text reading]
Gu Xiaofan finally announced on his Twitter the news of his new work, the fantasy TV series "Game of Thrones" adapted from "A Song of Ice and Fire".
The reason why Gu Xiaofan announced the news on Twitter at this time is that he hopes that the accumulated popularity of the Oscars can be maintained for a long time, and on the other hand, he wants to cultivate the audience of "Game of Thrones".
This fantasy series is not like a traditional American drama, there are all kinds of thrilling plots at the beginning, the best beginning, and then it gets worse and worse, on the contrary, "Game of Thrones" is a series that requires you to slowly enter and feel more and more charming.
The role of Twitter is to give fans continuous information about the work, and slowly learn about the series.
It's also a bond-building process that allows fans to learn more about every aspect of this epic series.
And the first message posted on Twitter in this series is:
"Dear fans around the world, my new game of thrones is going to be the best series you've ever seen, and I'm going to play Tyrion Lannister, I hope you enjoy it."
Just this tweet immediately aroused the interest of North American fans, the "villain" actually fulfilled his promise and really planned to play a white role? Oh my gosh, this is something that is just so bizarre.
For fans of fantasy novels all over the world, the name "Game of Thrones" is certainly familiar, but for the vast majority of fans in the world, few people have read this super-long fantasy novel, let alone understand what a "little devil" is?
When North American fans first heard the news, they almost all scolded: "Bastard! This Chinese mongrel actually played a white role!? "He's a pervert!" "I can't imagine this happening!"
The anger of fans spread uncontrollably, and Gu Xiaofan's Twitter was drowned out by the invective almost overnight.
Thanks to the efficacy of Gu Xiaofan's "target", Twitter's registered users have also increased exponentially, and Twitter has also cooperated with Huawei's technical department to promote the free voice "WeChat".
And the registration of stars such as Spacey and NBA O'Neal has further boosted Twitter's prestige, knowing that if you want to call a "villain" or interact with this well-known celebrity in the United States, you have to register a Twitter account, and there is no other way.
And soon, there are a lot of good people who looked up the information of the "little devil" on Wikipedia, but the result is very different from what they imagined, originally they thought that the "little devil" was a very cool and handsome character, but they didn't expect to check it out, it turned out to be a - dwarf!?
The "villain" is ashamed to play the role of a white man, but it turns out to be a dwarf?
Look at the description of the characters in the book - "Tyrion Lannister was the youngest and ugliest child of Lord Tywin. All the good that the gods had bestowed on Cersei and Jaime was left to Tyrion. He was a dwarf half the height of his brother, and he struggled to keep up with his deformed legs. His head was disproportionately large, and beneath his swollen forehead was a distorted and strange face. His eyes were blue and black, and he peeked out from under his long straight blonde hair, and the color of his hair was almost golden and white......"
All the North American fans who were extremely angry before, whether they were graduate students in the film and television department of the university, or the star chasers in Hollywood, or those otaku who chased dramas every day, were stunned, and then after a while, they all laughed.
It's so funny~~ It turns out that the arrogant "villain" turned out to be a dwarf in the first role? Or is it an extremely ugly alien gnome~?
Countless people left sarcastic messages under Gu Xiaofan's Twitter, and Fred, a netizen from Milwaukee, couldn't help laughing:
"Haha, this 'little devil' is just too suitable for a villain, and who better to play such an abominable role than him?"
The avatar is a muscular male netizen "Baghdad Guerrilla" ridiculed: "Today, I finally discovered one of the advantages of 'villain', that is, he is very self-aware, he knows that he is only suitable for playing such an ugly villain." ”
New York's "Manhattan Cheese" scolded directly: "This guy should play this kind of disgusting role, I prefer to see him beaten by the protagonist than he plays a submissive Asian wreck!" ”
For the role of the "villain", which is a bizarre dwarf, almost all North American fans applauded.
The name of "Game of Thrones" quickly became a hot search word on Google because of such a hot event.
Many people even bought the first episode of "A Song of Ice and Fire" on Amazon specifically in order to know the character of "Little Devil", but it is clear that such an expensive book is written in a completely different way from traditional novels, and it is very scattered, and it is difficult to 2 make people like it at first sight.
But looking at the previous plot, one thing is certain, this evil and **** "little devil" is just an inconspicuous little supporting role, and the upright and kind Ned Stark and his family are the protagonists of this story.
When fans saw the first volume of this book, it was indeed a great pleasure to determine that the "villain" could play the role of a person that everyone shouted at.
Of course, there are many laymen who ask on Twitter: "How can an able-bodied person play a dwarf?" ”
Fans laughed and laughed, and the stupid guy who asked the question said, "Do you think that the hobbits in "The Lord of the Rings" are all played by dwarf actors? ”
In this era, there is no problem with playing a dwarf with a person of normal height, the only obvious problem is skin color, but obviously, a strange-shaped dwarf, with a strange forehead and a distorted nose with some glue glued to it, who would think there is anything strange?
Who cares if a crawling alien is male or female?
And when the news came back to China, everyone was surprised when they knew that Gu Xiaofan's first English work was an orthodox Western fantasy drama.
You must know that Gu Xiaofan, even in China, is civilized with modern themes, and he has never been filmed in Chinese costume dramas, so he wants to shoot epic fantasy ...... in the United States?
Sounds very good, after all, "The Lord of the Rings" was successful online, but in fact, in the history of European and American television, is there any epic fantasy drama that can be said to be successful?
No...... There is not a single precedent
