ps: I would like to bow down and thank "stillchen" for supporting me with 2 monthly tickets. Thank you so much! In Zhao Xingchi's memory, there are a total of six versions of the TV series adapted from "The Romance of the Gods", three of which have been seen by many people; one version is so old that people born in the 1980s have basically never seen it; The version was blocked, so naturally there was no way to mention it. The version that is too old was filmed by TVB in 1981. The version that was banned was the 1989 version shot in the Mainland. The reason for the ban was that it was too avant-garde, "Da Ji" was actually exposed, and the demons, ghosts, and horses were too scary, especially the scene where the cannon was burned to death. In the era of 1989, it was so exciting that most people couldn't accept it and would feel nauseated after watching it. Of course, judging from Zhao Xingchi¡¯s standards, the 1989 version is not scary at all. I have seen so many American cut films with heavy tastes, and the horror of this version can only be light. There are three popular versions, the one with the best reputation is the one shot in mainland China in 1990, the one in which "Daji" is played by Fu Yiwei and the costumes are very avant-garde. The second is the version shot in mainland China in 2006. "Daji" was played by Fan Ye. Well, it is indeed very enchanting. Finally, there is the version filmed by TVB in 2001. The funny version, "Nezha" is played by Chen Haomin and "Er Lang Shen" is played by Qian Jiale. The filming is very rough, the plot is fake, and the special effects are even more intoxicating. From Zhao Xingchi¡¯s point of view, Fan Ye¡¯s version of ¡°Feng Shen Bang¡± is actually the most in line with his aesthetics! Although the 1990 Fu Yiwei version of "Feng Shen Bang" has a good reputation, it has a series of shortcomings such as poor plot, poor special effects, poor costumes, crude and rough shooting environment, and so on. Not to mention that archaeological excavations show that the clothing of the Shang Dynasty was of that style. That's useless, this is a film and television drama, not a historical documentary. Historical documentary. To record history in its original form, that historical period should be exactly what it was like, without additions or subtractions, let alone random fabrication. ??Do movies and TV dramas also need to record history in its original form? There¡¯s no need for that! If the social environment and clothing characteristics can be verified and conform to modern aesthetics, they must be presented in their original form. Too far away, there is no way to verify the social environment and clothing characteristics that are not in line with modern aesthetics. Then there is no need to be original, changes must be made. Zhao Xingchi admitted that the costume styles in Fu Yiwei's 1990 version of "Fengshen Bang" can withstand scrutiny. But at the same time, we must also be sure that these costumes do not conform to modern aesthetics. They feel like a group of beggars, which makes people really uninterested in watching them. more importantly. "The Legend of the Gods" is a mythological TV series. There are gods inside! Since there are even gods, what¡¯s so strange about beautiful clothes? Still have to dress like a beggar and engage in original ecology? stubborn! Zhao Xingchi thought about it and made the Saturn Chinese version of "Feng Shen Bang" according to Fan Ye's version of "Feng Shen Bang", and then made the special effects more beautiful. The special effects in Fan Ye's version of "Feng Shen Bang" are there, but they are really annoying. There is also a final version, "The List of Heroes of the Gods" that was broadcast during the Spring Festival at the end of 2013, with Chen Jianfeng playing "Jiang Ziya" and Zhang Xinyu playing "Daji". This version is really shocking. It's not an exaggeration to say it was like thunder rolling from the sky. Jiang Ziya turned into a handsome boy, fell in love with Ma Zhaodi, was secretly loved by many female fairies, flirted with Daji and fell in love over time and so on. Seeing Zhao Xingchi feel happy and at the same time helpless to complain. The reason for the excitement is very simple. The handsome guys and beauties make people feel good just looking at them, even though their poor acting skills are so terrible that it is too bad to watch. In Zhao Xingchi¡¯s mind, after filming the ¡°decent¡± version of ¡°The Heroes of the Gods¡±, it would be fun to shoot this funny version of ¡°The Heroes of the Gods¡±. Soon, Zhao Xingchi outlined the outline of "The Legend of the Gods" and handed it over to the screenwriting studio to finalize the detailed script, and then arranged for the company's casting director to audition actors. Small roles were decided by them, and four or five actors were chosen for each important role. "In "The Legend of the Gods", there are many important characters, and their roles are almost equal. Zhao Xingchi quickly decided that, like the TV series "Journey to the West", all the stars of the company would be on board, and there would be another all-star cast in "The Legend of the Gods". In "The Legend of the Gods", there is only one heroine, "Daji". This role is not easy to choose because Daji is a vixen, so the actor's temperament must be "seductive". In Zhao Xingchi's evaluation, Fu Yiwei's "Daji" is charming and resembling a vixen, but not "fascinating" and "poisonous" enough; Wen Bixia's version of "Daji" is charming and poisonous enough, but not demonic enough; Fan Ye There are demons and charms in "Daji", but they are only slightly marginal.Now, there is no "god" in the performance; Zhang Xinyu's version is poisonous enough, not demonic enough, not charming enough; Ruby Lin's version, it's okay not to mention it. Acting skills can be divided into physical resemblance and spiritual resemblance. The spiritual resemblance is better than the physical resemblance. It would be best if you have both the physical and spiritual resemblance. ¡° Mr. Fan is the kind of person who looks similar in appearance, but is far from being similar in spirit, let alone having both form and spirit. In Red Star Media Company, there are a few actresses who have the aura to support the role of "Daji", including Li Qingxia, Tang Xinya, Zheng Ya, etc., but they are not suitable. Not to mention her acting skills, her appearance and temperament are insulated from "Daji". Li Qingxia is beautiful and heroic, and has a heroic appearance, suitable for playing a decent heroine. Tang Xinya is a delicate and delicate type, and she cannot be called charming in any way. Zheng Ya is gentle and elegant, suitable for playing traditional women. ?¡ ?Zhao Xingchi thought about it, but he only thought of Lin Bingbing from Glory Media, one of China¡¯s top two stars, both in appearance and temperament, he looked very much like Mr. Fan. There is nothing you can do about choosing a taller person among short people. A few days later, Zhao Xingchi saw the name "Lin Bingbing" in the list of actresses suitable for him to play "Daji" selected by the casting directors. "It seems that the role of Daji belongs to Lin Bingbing. I wonder how she will react when I inform her?" Zhao Xingchi smiled slightly and thought with some anticipation. ?? Lin Bingbing is one of the two ices, the first sister of Glory Media, a beautiful woman, very famous in China, and even across the ocean, she is also famous in other Asian countries, Europe and the United States. However, Red Star Media once did not give Lin Bingbing face. Zhao Xingchi remembered that it was probably during the auditions for "The Legend of the White Snake" that Lin Bingbing volunteered, but was eliminated by him. I wonder if Lin Bingbing will give him face this time? More importantly, the character "Daji" is a vixen, a character with a very negative image. No matter which actress plays the role, people will feel weird when looking at this actress. Therefore, ordinary actresses would not accept it, let alone a big-name star like Lin Bingbing. For an older male villain like "King Zhou", there is no suitable actor within Red Star Media, so they hired an external actor. "Jiang Ziya", an old man and a decent male character, must be hired from outside. Yuanshi Tianzun, Wen Zhong, Shen Gongbao, Bigan, Ji Chang, Su Hu, Fei Zhong, etc., all have to be hired from outside. There are two most popular upright male characters in "Fengshenbang", one is "Nezha" and the other is "Yang Jian". King Wu Jifa, Boyikao, Lei Zhenzi, etc., all have to stand aside. ¡°Nezha¡± is not very old, so he has to use a younger actor to play the role. As for using actresses to play the role of "Nezha", Zhao Xingchi was disgusted with it. He couldn't understand why so many directors in the past life liked to use actresses to play "Nezha". Could it be that all the young male actors were dead? ? Zhao Xingchi finally arranged for several tender-faced young actors within the company to participate in the audition. Whoever qualified would be cast in a fair competition and let their strength speak for themselves. As for the role of "Yang Jian", a young actor is also needed to play it. Zhou Mingzhuo's temperament and acting skills are very suitable for the role of "Yang Jian", but he is a bit old, so Zhao Xingchi had to give up. "What? Master Xing asked me to play Daji?" But when Lin Bingbing received the company's notice about participating in "The Legend of the Gods", she was stunned and looked at the company's vice president Lu Xianqi in disbelief. Lu Xianqi nodded happily and said: "Yes, Mr. Xing thought of filming "The Legend of the Gods", and he was the first to call your name and wanted you to play the role of Daji." He couldn't help but be excited, because although Lin Bingbing is a big-name star, But there are no good characters or works, so the recognition from the audience and the recognition within the circle is very low. Of course, participating in the role of "Daji" in "The Legend of the Gods" may not necessarily bring Lin Bingbing recognition within and outside the circle, but at least she has established a relationship with Zhao Xingchi. From now on, if Zhao Xingchi casually supports him, are he afraid that he won¡¯t become famous? After receiving the affirmative answer, Lin Bingbing was pleasantly surprised at first, but then she gritted her teeth and finally said angrily: "Who does Zhao Xingchi think of me, Lin Bingbing? When he doesn't need me, he has to take care of me even if he comes to his door." He walked out and couldn't see me when he wanted to use me. He called me and said he wanted me to come. Do you treat me like a servant?" Lu Xianqi suddenly couldn't laugh or cry and asked: "Then you accept this TV series? Or not?" "Yes, why not?" Lin Bingbing replied without thinking, and then sneered: "It would be a shame not to seize such a good opportunity.??But I have to admit, this bastard is really awesome! " Lu Xianqi: "" Zhao Xingchi quickly received Lin Bingbing's affirmative reply and felt a little disappointed. He was still thinking about how to tease Lin Bingbing, but he simply surrendered. "Hey, life is so lonely. Snow! "Zhao Xingchi sighed. "At the end of October, the preparations for the TV series "The Legend of the Gods" were completed and the launch conference was officially held in Shanghai. Without exception, the press conference attracted hundreds of domestic and foreign media to attend interviews. At this time, a piece of inconspicuous news came out. The news came from CCTV. The comprehensive channel will broadcast the cartoon "Legend of Nezha" produced by Red Star Media during the afternoon animation time. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature.
