That year Huayu

When it comes to TV dramas, the martial arts dramas adapted from Jin Yong's novels are a hurdle that can never be overcome.

Over the years, I don’t know how many times it has been adapted and remade.

So far, the film and television industry is still happily remaking it.

Every time it causes quite a stir, high popularity, and massive attention and discussion.

Among Jin Yong's dramas, in terms of popularity, "Dragon" and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" are second to none.

Thinking back to the last remake of "Dragon", it seems to be the one where South Korean Bangzi played Duan Yu not long ago.

The bearded, nouveau riche and second-rate Duan Yu, and the village girl-like Wang Yuyan are really eye-catching.

And further up is the version produced by Zhang Jizhong. Wang Yuyan is played by Liu Yifei.

The same is true for "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" which is currently being remade by Yu Zheng.

The last outstanding remakes were still Zhang Jizhong's version, Huang Xiaoming's Yang Guo, and Liu Yifei's Little Dragon Girl.

If you think about it carefully, it has been more than seven years since it was launched. If you calculate it based on the launch time, it is only three months short of nine years.

It’s really full of youth and memories!

The casting of the new version of Yang Guo and Xiao Longnu is undoubtedly the focus of attention in the entire film and television industry.

Actors below the A-list are all eye-catching, after all, this is the most popular role!

But since it’s going to be a remake, comparison is indispensable.

At least the casting of Little Dragon Girl is something that the media, netizens and actors in the industry are all concerned about.

After all, the last stunning Xiao Longnu is now a top actress, an international actress, and a major producer and capital in the industry!

A large number of netizens are recommending their favorite celebrities and actors, hoping that they can play the roles of Yang Guo and Xiao Longnu.

Many second- and third-tier actors and actresses in the industry are also recommending themselves, eager to get roles so that they can become famous and promoted to the top.

Yu Zheng is always good at hype, and this kind of situation that is hotly discussed across the Internet is what he wants.

"The "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" that will be filmed this time will definitely respect the original work and will not be adapted like "The Swordsman". The props and costumes will also be more rigorous and sophisticated."

"As for the casting, it is already underway. We will definitely target Huang Xiaoming and Liu Yifei and choose Yang Guo, who will dazzle the audience, and Xiao Longnu, who will amaze everyone!"

"If you have any actors or stars you want to recommend, you can leave a message on Weibo and tell me, and please forward it so that more people can see it and get involved..."

Yu Zheng's several Weibo posts are really eye-opening, none of them are unnecessary nonsense.

First, they took the opportunity to promote the two TV series before and after; then they reasonably involved Huang Xiaoming and Liu Yifei to gain popularity and create topics;

The last step is to mobilize the enthusiasm and participation of the majority of netizens and expand the influence!

I can only say that Yu Zheng is indeed a "good prospect" in the entertainment industry.

Under Liu Yifei's Weibo, there are already many stills and short videos, all of which are her original Little Dragon Girl.

Dressed in white and cool, Chuchen looks like wearing a garland;

A beautiful one-piece horse hanging from a wire and stepping on an oil-paper umbrella;

A sad and beautiful face with long hair hanging loosely and two lines of clear tears;

Smart, elegant, and extremely beautiful fighting scenes;

There are also obviously behind-the-scenes shots of Liu Yifei holding two swords and showing a dashing martial arts training scene. At first glance, she is a very powerful swordsman!

Lin Nan was scrolling through Weibo, looking at Liu Yifei's stills and behind-the-scenes videos, and her thoughts drifted back to that time involuntarily.

He couldn't help but smile on his face, and his mind was filled with memories.

"In the blink of an eye, it's been so long, so fast, Miss Long..."

Before Lin Nan could continue to sigh, Yue Jun had already entered the office.

"Director Lin, everything is ready for the premiere of "Time Traveler". You and Yifei should arrive early tomorrow."

"Yeah, no problem."

Lin Nan nodded, as long as Miss Liu got up early, he would never be late.

…………

Jiang Wen's "One Step Away" has officially released its casting list to the outside world.

As expected, it is another extremely luxurious main creative lineup: Jiang Wen, Ge You, Zhou Yun, Shu Qi, Wen Zhang, Wang Zhiwen...

When this guy posted on Weibo, he even teased Lin Nan.

"After making a movie for so long, this is the first time someone has rejected my guest appearance invitation. Lin Nan, are you afraid that the box office of my movie will break your record? Haha..."

Many filmmakers in the industry have left messages joking.

"Director Jiang, the authorities are confused. You have to ask Yifei first, and then persuade Director Lin!"

"Oh, that's no longer possible. Producer Liu is about to join the crew of "Interstellar"."

"The white prostitution failed..."

…

When Lin Nan returned home, Liu Yifei showed him the news on the Internet with a smile.

"Director Jiang and the others are with you at Aite."

"He is going to Venice to be a judge. He worked overtime to get the role!" Lin Nan said with a smile.

The chairman of the jury for the main competition in Venice this year is Bernardo Bertolucci, whose masterpiece is "The Last Emperor."

After the 70-year-old director accepted the appointment, he selected Jiang Wen as a member of the jury, and the latter also agreed to the invitation.

"Come on, let me give this guy a reply."

Lin Nan sat down and held the phone for less than two minutes before replying to a Weibo post.

"Guest star? I'm afraid that if my mind changes, an hour's guest appearance will become a day, a week or even a month, and I will directly become a guest star. Then before the movie is released, my mind will change again, and it will be cut out!

In the past, as an actor, I could go through a lot of troubles, criticize this and that, and make a certain director cry. Now that you are a director, you will only be more free-spirited and intensified. Haha, I just won’t go! "

Lin Nan's Weibo instantly caused another commotion.

"Jiang heard about the movie, it seems like this is indeed the case!"

"Good guy, Director Lin's summary is too accurate, right?"

"I just want to know, who is this 'certain director'?"

"Hahaha, you still understand me, but don't say it out loud. How can I still have sex for nothing in the future..."

…………

The next day.

Early in the morning, the media was full of reports about the premiere of "Space Traveler".

As the third film produced and released by Lin Nan Pictures this year, it can be said that the industry is paying double attention to it.

The first "Love in Seattle" grossed 582 million; the second "One Man's Martial Arts" grossed 534 million.

The combined box office of these two movies exceeded 1.1 billion, and everyone in the production industry was jealous.

Now the third part is about to be released, again in the big time period of August.

Colleagues have mixed feelings about how much box office this movie can achieve.

Films of the same period are also very stressful!

Due to Lin Nan's special instructions, Liu Yifei rarely set the alarm clock.

At around eight o'clock in the morning, she climbed out of bed.

It's just that it takes more than half an hour from the time the brain gives the command to actually getting up.

"Take your time, we're not in a hurry, it's only half past nine."

Lin Nan leaned against the door frame, looked at Liu Yifei who was washing, and joked.

Miss Liu, who had an electric toothbrush stuffed in her mouth, rolled her eyes at him decisively. Her slightly bulging cheeks were very cute.

"I'm not in a hurry, and I don't plan to put on makeup." Liu Yifei raised her head and said arrogantly.

Lin Nan was stunned for a moment. What he said made sense, but he couldn't refute it!

After more than half an hour, Miss Liu, who was wearing a white printed T-shirt, high-waisted ripped jeans, and white sneakers, was ready.

Under the burgundy sunglasses, with long hair shawl, the whole person exudes a youthful, beautiful and carefree style.

"Let's go, Xiao Linzi."

Lin Nan almost didn't react to the long-term address.

He shook his head with a smile, picked up Liu Yifei's handbag on the table, and chased after it.

…………

Guo Fan, what is his status in the industry?

In the eyes of insiders, he is the only director contracted by Nortel's Lin Nan Pictures.

He was the director who was signed by Lin Nan during the postgraduate interview, which caused quite a stir at the time.

Now, another contracted director, Lu Yang, has entered the 500 million box office movie club.

So at this moment, the attention of the circle was inevitably focused on Guo Fan.

The box office performance of "Space Traveler" is also a test for him. I believe Guo Fan himself knows very well that the pressure will not be small.

The premiere was packed with people, and there were a lot of people from the film and television industry who came to support it.

None of the leading actors from other movies in the same period came to the show.

Fan Bingbing held a glass of wine and chatted animatedly with Guo Fan.

Huang Xiaoming took Yang Ying and walked among the crowd.

Luo Jin, Reba and others were also busy, and there was a constant stream of greetings.

Wang Changtian was surrounded by Deng Chao and Wang Jinghua.

…

At this time, Lin Nan was stopped on the red carpet, mainly Liu Yifei, and reporters kept asking questions.

"Why don't you ask later when the premiere is over?"

Lin Nan held Liu Yifei's hand and said to a group of media reporters with a smile.

Immediately, he pulled Miss Liu, who was also smiling, into the venue.

…

Anyone who has sent a premiere invitation to Lin Nan Pictures will be given a courtesy reply by the company.

This resulted in Lin Nan seeing many unexpected people at today's premiere.

For example, Wang Jinghua took Dong Zijian to meet "uncle, uncle, sister, brother..."

There is also Guo Jingming and his group who are obviously receiving a cold reception. There are only a few people in the circle around them, but he still joins the crowd with a warm face...

"Director Lin and Yifei are waiting for you."

"Should we not be late today?" Lin Nan replied with a smile.

"But you are the core of the premiere, the producers and producers."

Huang Xiaoming's words were so smooth!

Just as Leader Huang said, Lin Nan and Liu Yifei were surrounded by a group of people as soon as they arrived.

The female lead in "Interstellar" was used by many people to congratulate Ms. Liu, and some even asked about the movie's release date.

…

Guo Ban took the microphone and walked onto the stage with Luo Jin, Reba, Wan Qian, Tang Yan, Sun Yizhou and Deng Jiajia.

The scene instantly became quiet. Everyone sat in their seats and looked ahead.

"'Space Traveler' is my second film, it's still soft science fiction, and it's still based on the script provided by Director Lin.

So everyone can believe that the story of this movie will definitely be good..."

The second half of Guo Fan's sentence made many people laugh. This flattery was too blunt!

After more than twenty minutes of gags, the premiere got down to business.

"No more words to say. Let's continue chatting after everyone has finished watching the movie..."

After Guo Fan finished speaking, the big screen slowly came down, and the movie officially started.

Different from other movies, Lin Nan believes that the story of "Time Traveler" is very simple and profound.

From the moment the old father told his son that the male member of the family had the superpower to travel back in time and change reality, something was destined.

The hero traveled through time and went back to save his sister, but when he came back and found that the gender of his child had changed, he was confused.

The story gets deeper and deeper, change begets change, and the butterfly effect is everywhere.

…

"Fuck, what an awesome setting! Traveling through time actually changed the seeds during conception, causing the gender of the child to change..."

"On the one hand, going back to the past to meet his old father, on the other hand, it will definitely affect the younger son. The hero may die of pain..."

There are more and more comments around, indicating that everyone has taken notice.

This movie not only has the setting of a science fiction film, but also pays great attention to emotional resonance.

Two hours seemed to fly by quickly, and after the movie ended, there was endless applause.

Guo Fan once again led the leading actors onto the stage. He looked at Lin Nan and said with a smile:

"Director Lin, producer and producer, why don't you come up too?"

"Director Lin, Yifei."

"Director Lin and Producer Liu are waiting for you."

…

There was a burst of booing at the scene. Lin Nan and Liu Yifei looked at each other and stood up with a smile.

The media reporters were so excited that they no longer had to look for these two people alone.

The first question is always the box office!

Most people at the scene were very concerned about this issue. Lin Nan Pictures' movies have always been well-known.

Guo Fan was not ambiguous at all: "Box office target? First catch up with Lu Yang's "One Man's Martial Arts", and then continue upward!"

"I asked him to try to win the summer box office championship and beat the movies of the same period, haha..."

Lin Nan added with a smile. His words immediately made the field agitated.

The actors and creators of the same period movie who were present all had helpless smiles on their faces.

Although they did not dare to refute Lin Nan's words, none of them would give in.

…

After several questions, these media reporters finally changed the subject and began to ask other questions.

"Did Director Lin help Yifei communicate about "Interstellar"?"

Although this was widely spread outside, the person involved never responded.

When this question was asked, almost everyone pricked up their ears.

"It doesn't count as communication, because director Nolan and Yifei have collaborated on "Inception". I just mentioned it, and he thought it was very suitable, so it was settled."

Liu Yifei looked at Lin Nan with a bright smile on her face.

This answer made a lot of people a little bit annoyed, it's so cool!

""The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is about to be remade, and the casting process has been going on for the past two days. What do you think of Yifei? Do you think the new Little Dragon Girl can compare to you?"

The more I asked, the more I went off track, and all sorts of questions came up.

Even Huang Xiaoming in the audience couldn't help laughing when he heard this question. He has been harassed a lot in the past two days.
