January 26, 01, the third day of the Lunar New Year.

Lao Li carried a steaming casserole upstairs, Li Tang hurriedly put on the cassette stove, turned on a low heat, and put the casserole on it to stew slowly.

The father and son guarded a family portrait casserole, with a few cold dishes next to it, and drank with each other.

"Abba, Nong said how good it would be to take Aunt Xiao and Xiao Xiao over as soon as possible, and there will be more people during the New Year."

Lao Li and Aunt Xiao have long had a substantive relationship, but they are still hanging like this for more than a year, and Li Tang is worried about his father.

"Oh, didn't I help Nong talk a long time ago, wait for Xiao Xiao to graduate from high school and be admitted to college, and then pay tribute to the ancestors during the New Year." Lao Li explained.

On this point, he had already reached a consensus with Aunt Xiao.

Li Tang said: "It's all an old ancestor, what's the matter!" ”

"Don't be blind, in your grandfather's generation, you are already far away, don't go back and forth for a long time." Lao Li said with a straight face.

Speaking of which, the surname Li is a big surname in the hometown, and Aunt Xiao's deceased ex-husband is also surnamed Li, and it is still the family when it is counted as his own family, but what Lao Li said has been from Grandpa Li Tang's generation has not been in contact, which means that he has already come out of the five suits.

Li Tang smiled: "Yes, otherwise, your eldest uncle will get together with the widowed brother and daughter-in-law, and it won't be good to spread it." ”

"Nong smashes the small house, no big or small, the more you talk about it, the more open-minded you become!"

Lao Li glared at him and reprimanded, then sighed and said, "Okay, anyway, Chenguang won't last long." Your Aunt Xiao said that when Xiao Xiao turns eighteen, her obligations will be fulfilled. ”

Li Tang agreed with this, picked up the wine glass and comforted his father: "Abba, nong, look at it, Aunt Xiao is so affectionate and righteous to the dead, and she must not be bad for the living." ”

"Of course, that's what I'm interested in." Lao Li picked up the wine glass and touched it with his son, and said with a proud face.

"Hey, isn't it about Aunt Xiao's good looks?"

Lao Li's face was a little unbearable, and he glared and said, "Don't gossip too much, do it!" (Cheers)".

After the two of them had a drink, Lao Li played again: "Don't talk about me, what about Nong's own family?" The newspaper has been talking about Nong and Big Ice Ice and Xiaoice Ice, which can be the same thing? ”

"Oh, the newspapers are full of nonsense, don't take it seriously."

"I'm almost thirty years old, I'm as big as Nongga, and Nong has been running all over the ground a long time ago."

"I've just turned twenty-six years old now, and the times are different, I'm not in a hurry now, I'll talk about it again in Chenguang!" Li Tang said busily.

Lao Li was dissatisfied: "Don't worry, I'm in a hurry!" Like my current age, I should have been a big (grandfather) for a long time, and Nong doesn't even have a goal of getting married now, how can Nong tell me to do it? ”

Li Tang picked up the cup again and said with a smile: "Abba, if Nong likes villains, wouldn't it be good to hurry up and raise another one with Aunt Xiao." ”

This was a joke with his father before, but now Fan Xiaopang often shows off his brother in front of him, and he will inevitably be a little itchy, if his father and Aunt Xiao give him a younger brother and sister, it seems to be good. Aunt Xiao is a few years younger than her chubby mother, Aunt Zhang, and her father will not nag in his ear every time to urge marriage.

"Raise another one? Hmph, think about it yourself, is it cost-effective? Lao Li looked at him and said.

"Don't get up if you have anything, even if Nong is old in the future, there is still me as a brother. Rest assured, old comrade, Nong Nizi (son) is not short of banknotes. ”

Hearing this, Lao Li was not convinced, and choked and said: "Nong's wings are hard now, old eggs, don't forget to take it off, I can raise Nong Gabig." Even if you raise a small one now, it won't be a problem. ”

Li Tang said with a hippie smile: "Ouch, Abba, how dare I be an old egg, if I want an old egg, it is also an old egg." Back then, the reputation of Xiao Lizi in Chengxiang Town was not too loud. ”

To be honest, the longer he was outside, the more he missed sitting with his dad drinking and bragging, and he was really relaxed. Compared with the unsmiling Kochi father in his previous life, Lao Li is obviously much cuter, completely a flesh-and-blood, affectionate and righteous, living father!

As long as he talks about the "great achievements" of the year, Lao Li is always full of smugness. You must know that not everyone can start by selling foreign cigarettes back then, you have to have connections, brains, means, and even more courage. Back then, the name of Little Plum in Daddy Chengxiang Town was made with a pair of fists.

If it is put on hold, and there is wine to help the fun, Lao Li usually can't stop, but when he was talking about Xingtou today, he suddenly looked at the time and said busily: "Hey, turn on the TV, the central eight sets, "Smiling Proud Jianghu" is about to start." ”

Although Dad is playing the same old tune, Li Tang still listens to it with relish, you must know that these are all life, and if you encounter a period drama in the future, you can use it. If it weren't for his father's reminder, he would have almost forgotten that today is the premiere of "Smiling Proud Jianghu".

At half past seven in the evening, with this piece of guqin, the CCTV version of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" finally met the audience for the first time. Because a lot of trailer clips have been released during the previous promotion, the audience is no stranger to the appearance of Li Tang and Xu Qing and other leading actors.

When he saw the picture of Li Tang and Xu Qing appearing at the beginning of the film, Lao Li couldn't stop nodding and said: "Nong Die's appearance is good, Xu Qing looks good, well, praise!" ”

CCTV 8 is a two-episode series, these two episodes are mainly about Ling Hu Chong was ordered by his teacher and his sister Yue Lingshan to disguise themselves as wine house guys and lie at the foot of Wuyi Mountain. In the process, Ling Hu Chong happened to meet the Demon Sect Elder Qu Yang, and the two were like-minded and sympathetic to each other. Then Lin Ping, the young dart head of the Fuwei Dart Bureau, came out and rested in the Linghu Chong and Yue Lingshan wine inns, and had a conflict with a young man surnamed Yu in order to fight the grievances, but unexpectedly killed the young man surnamed Yu.

After that, the plot is basically the same as in the book, and the Fuwei Dart Bureau began to die inexplicably, and it turned out that Yu Canghai, the head of the Qingcheng faction, led his subordinates to take revenge. At the time of crisis, Linghu Chong chivalrous rescued, but was in danger under the all-out attack of Yu Canghai and Qingcheng faction, and Qu Yang came to the rescue. Then he encountered the Demon Sect Holy Aunt Ren Yingying who came to chase and kill Qu Yang, so that Hu Chong could not tolerate righteousness and save Qu Yang regardless of good and evil, and at the same time had entanglements with Ren Yingying......

It should be said that the first two episodes made the two protagonists Hu Chong and Ren Yingying appear in advance, which is the biggest adaptation of the entire TV series. This kind of change is actually very easy to understand, and the biggest difference between film and television works is drama. The love between Ling Hu Chong and Ren Yingying is the main emotion of the original book, and the TV series naturally needs to be prominent. And early appearance can capture the audience's desire to watch.

After filming "Smiling Proud Jianghu", Li Tang saw the finished film for the first time, and to be honest, he was quite emotional. The first two episodes were filmed in the hottest climate of late July and early August.

I recall that at that time, I drilled around in the woods by Taihu Lake every day, the temperature was high and the humidity was high, and the mosquitoes were overwhelming, and the historical scene seemed to be right in front of me.

When the first episode ends and the ending song sounds, the high-pitched "Bah-ahhh When it sounded, Li Tang couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body, followed by the ending song "Smiling Proud Jianghu Song" sung by Liu Huan and the princess, the male voice was loud and bright, and the female voice was tactful and low. With such a natural voice, it really sang the bloody wind and rain of the rivers and lakes, and also expressed the love of children.

After watching the two episodes, Lao Li looked unsatisfied, and specially raised a glass to his son and said: "This is the best role I have ever seen Nong play, suitable (comfortable)!" ”

Li Tang received a call from Zhang Dabeard the next day, and Lao Zhang excitedly told him on the phone that the premiere hit a super high rating of 17.8% in one fell swoop, you must know that this is the national ratings, there is no doubt that "Smiling Proud Jianghu" is popular!

What people never expected is that although with the follow-up broadcast, the ratings have remained high, and even hit new highs, but the criticism from the outside world is endless, and it is intensifying.

The first one is criticism from fans of the original work, especially after the first and second episodes were broadcast, Ling Hu Chong and Ren Yingying appeared in advance, and they thought it was completely inconsistent with the original work.

Some media also brought out an interview with Mr. Jin Yong, and also quoted Jin Yong's original words: "I didn't see the finished product before, and I felt that CCTV was shooting wholeheartedly and hard, but after the shooting, it was not the same as I thought." ”

As soon as this remark came out, it further fueled the criticism of the TV series by those so-called fans of the original book.

Li Tang was also very depressed after reading the relevant reports, and he didn't know what this old man thought. It is important to know that words and images are completely different ways of expression, and it is simply impossible for some people to be "faithful to the original".

The other is that some media compare the CCTV version with the TVB version, thinking that the TVB version is a classic, and the CCTV version is pure garbage. This responds to Li Tang's previous speculation, these media are deliberately slandering, praising TVB, and damaging mainland film and television is already a kind of inertial thinking.

In fact, people who are really engaged in the film and television industry understand at a glance that the TVB version is fast-paced and just an assembly line operation, while the CCTV version is atmospheric, and it really shoots its cultural connotation.

But the fair comments of these industry insiders were quickly drowned out by a flood of bad reviews. The reason is that the CCTV version and the TVB version are too different. Preconceived impressions are often difficult to change.

Hong Kong film and television dramas have formed a very unique and mature martial arts style in the 80s and 90s. And the audience in this year has basically grown up watching Hong Kong martial arts movies and TV series, and they are naturally accustomed to this system. But then again, if you want to shoot something new, you have to think outside the box completely.

In fact, in the final analysis, the media is still driving the rhythm, the audience is blind, to put it mildly, the audience will watch whatever you shoot, some people may like stars, some people like the plot, and some people just watch the fun. But as long as someone leads the rhythm, and the audience finds that it coincides with a certain point of view in their heart, the emotions will be easily aroused.

There is also criticism of the actors' performances, but compared with the first two types of criticism, the latter is not very loud, mainly focusing on Xu Qing is too old, the version of Ren Yingying and so on.

And there is not much criticism of the role of Ling Hu Chong, who is often criticized. The reason is very simple, because Li Tang's uninhibited, chic, and upright appearance, as well as his downlight on life and death and his emphasis on affection, almost perfectly fit Ling Hu Chong in the original book.

And in terms of image, bamboo hats, cloth clothes, long swords, long hair fluttering, and handsome appearance; In terms of personality, he is hearty and heroic, narrow and affectionate, and even has a sense of youth. All of them have captured the hearts of the audience, especially the female audience.

Comparing the TVB version, it is not difficult to find that the so-called chic does not mean romantic, and the so-called uninhibited does not mean frivolous.

Of course, there are also some brainless viewers and diehards who think that the actors in the TVB version are particularly relaxed and natural, with no traces of performance, and at first glance it is Ling Hu Chong, while Li Tang has bullshit criticism such as too heavy performance traces.

First update!
