Chapter 308: The Condor Heroes casting

If you want to ask which of Jin Yong's martial arts novels has the most remakes, it is undoubtedly "The Condor Heroes". There are relatively few remakes of the movie version, but the TV series version has been made version after version.

The main reason is that the routines of TV dramas are different from the routines of movies and novels.

The routine of the movie is somewhat similar to the routine of the novel, in the action movie, the plot must be painful, followed by the pig's foot can not be hit too hard, it can't be too sadistic, such as being cuckolded This kind of plot can't appear, it's too sadistic. The routine of the TV series is going to be reversed, what you want is the word "abuse", it is best to abuse it to death, and abuse it over and over again, only in this way can you earn enough tears from the audience and become a classic.

"The Condor Heroes" has the plot of Xiaolongnu being lost, which makes many people lose their appetite, and the TV series version is also disliked by many people, but with the sadistic plot and the influence of Jin Yong's old man, one version after another has been filmed, and each version has set off a boom in society, and the ratings remain high.

In Stephen Zhao's memory, there are seven versions of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", namely Liu Tianwang's version, Pan Yingzi's version, Gu Zai's version, Fan Wenfang's version, Ren Xianqi's version, Huangjiao's main version, and Yu Ma's version, which was still filming at the time of crossing.

Yu's mother's version hasn't come out yet, so let's not mention it for the time being, but just with that bun face, even if it is filmed, Stephen Zhao is disdainful: "No matter how much hype is strong, but the heroine of Xiaolongnu has been badly chosen, no one likes it, and you still want to watch Changhong?" Dream on! ”

In the other six versions, Stephen Zhao believes that the best person to play "Yang Guo" is Gu Zai, who is handsome, arrogant, romantic and infatuated. has both form and spirit, and really brings "Yang Guo" to life.

Who is the best person to play "Little Dragon Girl", this choice is a bit difficult, because the image that most conforms to Little Dragon Girl is Liu Tianxian, but the acting skills are called poor, miserable; The best acting skills are Li Ruoxun, who is paired with Gu Zai. brought the cold fairy aura of the little dragon girl to life, but the appearance was a little worse, because although the little dragon girl was a generation older than Yang, her appearance was the same as that of a girl, and Li Ruoxun was undoubtedly far behind.

Stephen Zhao also knew that finding a person with similar appearance and temperament and powerful acting skills to play the little dragon girl was too demanding.

The appearance and temperament are similar to the little dragon girl, so she must be a beautiful girl.

But. Girls are generally newcomers who have just debuted, where do they get their acting skills? Unless it's the kind of genius that comes in a million.

Therefore, in Stephen Zhao's criteria for selecting actors, three sets of plans have been prepared, one is the highest standard, with both form and spirit; One set is to take Liu Tianxian as a sample, as long as the image and fame; One set is based on Li Ruoxun as a sample, and the image almost doesn't matter. But the acting has to be great.

As for the selection criteria for the actor of "Yang Guo", the same is true. But Stephen Zhao hopes to find a Saturn version of Gu Zai.

On the official website of Red Star Media, the actor recommendation activity is in full swing.

In terms of actors, perhaps because the TV series "Smiling Proud Jianghu" is too popular, the audience recommendation votes of the older young Luo Ye actually topped the list, overshadowing the three new generation of mainland actors Lin Xin, Han Bai, and Sun Xiao, who are currently more popular.

Ding Xiaofei, the super popular otaku god who became popular on the Internet because of "Never Expected", was also recommended by many netizens, but the number of votes was miserable. It was even ranked outside the top ten.

"Never Expected" has been filmed for two seasons, and even filmed "Never Expected: Little Soldiers for the New Year" during the Chinese New Year last year, and is currently preparing for the third season. The producer and director have changed three times, but Ding Xiaofei and Wang Zefeng have always been there, so their popularity is getting higher and higher. The impression in the hearts of the audience is getting deeper and deeper.

Lin Xin, this is a signed actor under the name of Gao Quan, a young producer who has become famous in the TV circle in recent years, born in 1987, graduated from the Central Academy of Drama, and has always starred in costume dramas.

Han Bai, whose popularity may be worse than Lin Xin, but his appearance is handsome, his temperament is extraordinary, and his acting skills are outstanding, and when he debuted in 2014, he swept the newcomer awards at major awards ceremonies with his first TV series "Legend of the Desert", and since then he has starred in many hit TV series, all of which have performed well. What's more, Han Bai starred as the second male lead in the 3D martial arts movie "The Legend of Heavenly Sword" by the great director Wang Baogang.

"The Legend of Sword and Heaven" has been filmed for more than two years and is about to be completed, and it has been confirmed to participate in the Chinese New Year file at the end of the year, and it will just compete with Stephen Zhao's "Painted Skin".

So when he saw Han Bai on the official website, Zhao Xingchi's feelings were quite complicated.

As for Sun Xiao, this is a rookie actor under the Rey brothers, one of the few new generations with great acting talent, and the directors he has worked with have praised him as an acting genius, and won the Best Newcomer Award at the Beijing University Film Festival that year with his first film "Warm Day", and was hand-picked by many well-known directors to participate in big-budget movies because of his outstanding performance. In the outside world, this is even known as "a well-deserved leader of the new generation in the Chinese film industry".

Of these four people, only Sun Xiao made Zhao Xingchi more satisfied.

Luo Ye didn't say it, it's too old, so let's rule it out first; Lin Xin is Gao Quan's person, Gao Quan has to say another thing if he can't let go, Zhao Xingchi has no reason to cultivate people for Gao Quan, and more importantly, Lin Xin's face is relatively small, giving people the feeling of a little doll; Han Bai, Zhao Xingchi thinks that his appearance does not meet the requirements, Yang Guo wants the kind of handsomeness that is arrogant and arrogant, but Han Bai is the kind of handsomeness that is very melancholy.

Only Sun Xiao has always given people a cool feeling, and his appearance is very similar to Gu Zai in his previous life, plus he is a person who is Zhao Xingchi's strategic partner Rey Brothers, so if nothing else, Zhao Xingchi is more inclined to let him play "Yang Guo".

As for the actress who plays the role of "Little Dragon Girl", the first place on the recommended list is "Zhou Tianxian", Zhou Chenxi, who is the most beautiful and beautiful among the new generation of actresses in the mainland of China!

Tall and slender, with a goose egg face, baby-like blown-breakable skin, breathtaking Danfeng eyes, elegant posture, and waist-length black hair, just looking at her appearance, this Zhou Chenxi can really be called fluttering and beautiful like a fairy.

Stephen Zhao was amazed when he saw all kinds of artistic photos of this "Zhou Tianxian", and he was actually three points more beautiful than Liu Tianxian in his previous life, and couldn't help but think: "No wonder after 2013, it has been known as a super perfect version of the youth and beautiful girl in the sky and on the ground, no wonder it is called Zhou Tianxian, it is really worthy of the name!" ”

Zhou Chenxi was born in 1991, graduated from the Beijing Film Academy, entered the entertainment industry in 2013, and has acted in several TV series and one or two movies, but they are all used as vases to make soy sauce, and they have not received much attention. There are many reasons, one is that she is too beautiful, and the other is that she has not joined any acting company so far.

People who are too beautiful, even if they have acting skills, it is difficult to be recognized by the audience.

If you don't join an acting company and go it alone, you will get fewer resources, and you won't have many opportunities to get ahead.

Stephen Zhao smiled faintly after reading her information, and began to search for the TV series and movies she had acted in to see how her acting skills were.

As long as Zhou Chenxi's acting skills are passable, the role of "Little Dragon Girl" will be set for her. (To be continued......)
