Chapter 651 Casting

Author: Guan Yunhai

The first broadcast rights, secondary broadcast rights, and exclusive online broadcast rights of the "Dragon" TV series were sold for a high price of several hundred million. Naturally, this news could not be kept secret, and it spread quickly. For a while, the Internet was abuzz.

"Damn it, you're stealing money!"

"The TV series has not even started filming, but the broadcast rights have been sold for hundreds of millions. This is so awesome!"

"Not only has filming not started, we haven't even started casting."

"It is said that for the right to premiere "Dragon Movie", five major TV stations gathered together, and even China Television and Phoenix TV in Xiangjiang joined in the fun."

"I heard that China Television has unprecedentedly offered a price of 3 million yuan for a single episode. This is China Television! China Television has always been aloof. Who has ever seen China Television spend so much money on a TV series? Anyway, I have never seen it.

.”

"I haven't seen it either. China Television's ratings are so good. Many TV series produced by film and television production companies in the industry are thankful to be on China Television. How can I dare to make too many demands on the price?"

"So Wang Xuan is still awesome! The TV series he filmed actually made China Television lose their dignity. What's funny is that China Television lowered their dignity and even offered a high price of 3 million for a single episode. In the end, the bidding failed."

"It's not funny. Each of the five major TV stations offered 3 to 4 million yuan. Didn't they also fail in the bidding? I can only say that Yangcheng TV is too cruel. 5 million for a single episode, breaking the single episode price record in the history of TV dramas."

"Yes, it's so cruel! Yangcheng Satellite TV is really a blockbuster."

"Then you have to have money. If it is not the provincial satellite TV of the most economically important province in China, how can Yangcheng TV become a blockbuster!"

"It is estimated that Yangcheng TV will reach the top five TV stations."

"We have made a few small targets before filming started. Why should we have a small target for "Dragon Movie"?"

"Enlarge the picture a little bit. When filming "The Condor", Wang Xuan had almost two small targets. When filming "Dragon", could he only have one small target? This is "Dragon"."

"Yes, you have to believe Wang Xuan. Anyway, I am looking forward to this TV series more and more."

Because there were so many people discussing it, the topic of selling the first broadcast rights of "Dragon Movie" quickly became a hot search topic and remained high on the hot search list.

Against this background, on August 15th, "Dragon" finally officially auditioned for roles.

Before this, many actors in the industry actually called Tianhai to seek roles. However, there were too many people wanting the same role. In order to keep improving, Wang Xuan decided to conduct an open casting call to select the most suitable one.

After half a month, the casting process for "Dragon" is finally over.

Xiao Feng will be played by Tian Hai's Yuan Hua, which was a direct decision.

A'Zhu is played by Deng Meilin.

Duan Yu is played by Han Zhengwei. Han Zhengwei is also an actor under Tianhai. He has played Yang Kang in "The Condor" before, and he played the role of Yang Kang very well. In fact, Wang Xuan originally planned to let Han Zhengwei play Murong Fu. But Hu Ge

If he wanted to play Murong Fu, Wang Xuan could only let Han Zhengwei play Duan Yu.

One thing to say is that although Duan Yu is one of the three main protagonists, in comparison, the role of Murong Fu is more malleable.

Murong Fu became famous and dazzling before he even appeared on the stage.

Yanziwu depicts the feeling of a wealthy family in a small town in the south of the Yangtze River to the extreme, and the eldest brother, younger brother, and various maids in it seem to exist for this so-called Mr. Murong. Everyone calls him versatile in both civil and military affairs, handsome, and popular among people.

The sentence "Murong in the South, Qiao Feng in the North" pushed Murong Fu's reputation to the top.

But since he appeared and most of the book has passed, most people's impression of Murong Fu is that he has great martial arts skills, but lacks courage, is cunning, and does not use any means to achieve his goals. He is not as upright as Xiao Feng, and as a Han Chinese, he has no intention of regaining the Yan Dynasty.

Hongtu has no sense of identity. In short, he is a very unpleasant guy.

This feeling reached its peak during the martial arts competition at Shaoshi Mountain: Murong Fu was beaten by Duan Yu's Six Meridians Divine Sword and lost his helmet and armor, but when Duan Yu was sparing him, he suddenly backhanded him, and was caught by Xiao Feng.

Throw it out and it will fall into pieces of mud.

Xiao Feng's sentence "Xiao Feng, a good man, is as famous as someone like you" made people's blood boil with excitement. At the same time, he was full of contempt for Murong Fu, who hurt people behind his back. Until he insisted on becoming the Xixia Prince Consort despite Wang Yuyan's infatuated love, and expressed his disdain for Duan Yu's

When he was persuaded and dismissed, Murong Fu was almost portrayed as a "villain".

But there must be something pitiful about the so-called hateful people.

Murong Fu's character and behavior were not innate, but were related to his identity, the environment he lived in, and the education he received. As the grandson of the Emperor of Yan, he was educated since he was a child to rejuvenate Dayan for his entire life.

Goals, what’s wrong with that?

In order to regain the Yan Dynasty, he used all means at all costs, but how could the general trend of the world be changed by one person? How could the rejuvenation of a country be achieved by one person?

Murong Fu was busy for half his life, doing whatever he could to get rid of all kinds of infamy. He even did such crazy things as recognizing Duan Yanqing as his father, agreeing to change his surname to Duan, killing Duan Zhengchun's mistress, and killing Duan Zhengchun's mistress. However, the dream of restoring the country was destined to be just out of reach.

.

In the end, he even lost his cousin who was infatuated with him, and he became completely desperate and insane.

Poor, sad!

In the darkness of the underground palace of the Xixia Palace, when the maid asked Murong Fu those three questions, Murong Fu's psychological activities were undoubtedly the highlight of this character. The original text is as follows:

Murong Fu once heard her ask forty or fifty people this question, but when he asked it to himself, he suddenly became speechless and couldn't answer. He had been working in camps all his life, constantly working to revive the Yan Kingdom, and it could be said that he had never had such a question.

How could he live a happy life? Others saw that he was young and handsome, had great martial arts skills, and was famous all over the world. Everyone in the world was in awe of him, and he must be very proud of himself. But in his heart, he had never felt truly happy. He stayed for a while.

, said: "If I want to feel truly happy, it will be in the future, not the past."

Combined with this psychological description, the character Murong Fu can be considered alive. In the final analysis, Murong Fu is just a poor man who was passed down by his ancestors to restore the country, pushed forward by his family, and driven crazy step by step by the world.

That's all. His life has never been his own, it belongs to his family and his father. Although Xiao Feng is sad, he has a choice. Murong Fu has no choice and cannot die even if he wants to. When he was in Shaoshi Mountain, Murong Fu was beaten by Xiao Feng

You will lose all face, even if you want to commit suicide.

It is said that "Tian Long Ba Bu" is the pinnacle of martial arts novels. It has three main protagonists, namely Duan Yu, Xu Zhu and Xiao Feng.

But compared with Xiao Feng, the two protagonists seem much bleak. Xiao Feng's main plot has plots, suspense, scenes and depth, and its background spans the Central Plains, the Privet Tribe of Changbai Mountain, the Khitan Royal Court in the Desert, Shaoshi Mountain, Tubo, and Yanmen Pass

, magnificent and soul-stirring.

What about Duan Yu? He is dull and dull all the way. Although he appears many times, the plot has no depth and is more like a thread.

Xu Zhu is also ignorant, and by chance and coincidence, he learns peerless martial arts, masters power, and wins a beautiful woman. The plot also has no depth, and it is just a thread.

Of course, from the perspective of "all living beings suffer and all sentient beings suffer evil", these two protagonists are qualified.

Duan Yu was born to hate martial arts, stayed away from politics, and only wanted to pursue the person he liked. However, while traveling in the world, he inexplicably learned a lot of peerless martial arts due to fate, and eventually became the emperor, becoming the kind of person he least wanted to be.

Everyone I love is my sister. After reading a book by Wang Yuyan, in the end Wang Yuyan still loves her cousin;

Xu Zhu's lifelong wish is to be a little monk in the Buddhist sect, which is the most peaceful and longing holy land deep in his heart. However, he was miraculously deprived of Shaolin internal skills and learned the top martial arts of another sect.

He committed murder, was forced to break the precepts on sexual intercourse, drinking, etc., and could no longer convert to Buddhism. He had no father or mother since he was a child, and his parents died as soon as they met.

In fact, nothing Xu Zhu got was what he wanted. But what he wanted was out of reach.

In short, Duan Yu and Xu Zhu have complete portrayals and full characters, but as the three main protagonists of Tianlong together with Xiao Feng, these two people lack aura and feel a little powerless.

On the contrary, Murong Fu is more worthy of being the protagonist together with Xiao Feng. The two are equally famous in the world. The names of "Murong in the south and Qiao Feng in the north" can be said to be resounding throughout the Central Plains, but both of them are foreigners.

One is a reckless hero, the other is a wealthy son, one is wandering around the world in pursuit of his Khitan origin, one is also running around for the great cause of regaining the Xianbei people, one is bold and cheerful, the other is scheming, and the fate of the two is determined by the legacy left by their respective fathers.

Gratitudes and grievances are entangled, but different paths lead to the same destination.

Until the end of the novel, the king's domineering ambitions returned to dust. Xiao Feng was so loyal that he committed suicide at Yanmen Pass, and died together with Azi on the cliff where his mother fell. Murong Fu lost everything, and his cousin followed Duan Yu.

One of his close friends was killed by his own hands, and the three of them broke off their friendship. His father became a monk and had no interest in worldly affairs. Dayan's restoration of the country was in vain. From then on, he lost his mind and wandered in the forest with Abi.

From this point of view, is Murong Fu more suitable to be the protagonist together with Xiao Feng? Is he more qualified to be the protagonist of "Tian Long Ba Bu"?

Therefore, compared with Duan Yu, the role of Murong Fu is more malleable, and he is very brilliant when he plays it well.

Hu Ge obviously had a deep understanding of the role of Murong Fu, and that's why he took the initiative to ask Wang Xuan to play Murong Fu.

In fact, Wang Xuan was more willing to give the role of Murong Fu to Han Zhengwei in his heart, but when he asked Han Zhengwei what he thought of the role of Murong Fu, Han Zhengwei knew little about Murong Fu and did not analyze the connotation of Murong Fu, so Wang Xuan

Xuan finally decided to give the role of Murong Fu to Hu Ge.

Wang Yuyan is played by Qiao Ziwei, who was actively invited by Wang Xuan. Because Wang Yuyan is a fairy sister in "Tian Long Ba Bu", there are many beautiful people in the entertainment industry, but her fairy spirit is like a fairy descending to earth.

There are really not many people who have the temperament. Qiao Ziwei is one of them, Chen Xueqi is also one, but the others are a little less interesting.

Chen Xueqi was unavailable, and Wang Xuan would not let her play Wang Yuyan, so she invited Qiao Ziwei.

Qiao Ziwei is naturally willing to play a role like Wang Yuyan. However, she also made a request. If there is a passionate scene, it can only be played by a stand-in.

Wang Xuan naturally had no objection to this. The two hit it off and the matter was settled.

Xu Zhu is played by Li Ze as a guest star.

Li Ze and Lin Quan were thrown into the military camp by Wang Xuan for training. After training for more than half a year, they finally reached the standard of special forces and successfully graduated from the military camp. Now Li Ze and Lin Quan have a military temperament all over their bodies. Wang Xuanruo

When filming those popular military dramas, such as "Operation Red Sea" and "Wolf Warrior", it is definitely not a problem for the two of them to star.

Later, Wang Xuan decided on the candidates for Azi, Mu Wanqing, and Zhong Linger. Liu Ruyan will play Azi, Jiang Xinxin will play Mu Wanqing, and Yang Hao will play Zhong Linger. These three are actors from other companies. Through

The actors selected during the casting process, not to mention their acting skills, are still in their youth and their looks are almost at their peak.

It will definitely be a beautiful scenery by then.

In fact, there are many actors within Tianhai who want to play these three roles. But Wang Xuan thought about it and decided to choose from outside.

Han Zhengwei, who plays Duan Yu, has the same appearance as Lin Zhiying. Wang Xuan is afraid that the actress in Tianhai who plays opposite Han Zhengwei will get too involved in the drama and accidentally fall in love with Han Zhengwei. If there is any trouble, then

That's not good.

Wang Xuan from other companies is not afraid. As long as you agree with me, Wang Xuan won't care so much. Anyway, just don't harm the people inside Tianhai. Of course, Wang Xuan also believes in Han Zhengwei's character. This guy comes from an ordinary background and is quite pragmatic.

, it’s not easy to get this kind of opportunity, so I shouldn’t mess around with it.

The reason for choosing someone from outside is just as a precaution.
