Chapter 221 Wants to play Duan Zhengchun
Chen Yulian walked into Yang Ye’s office feeling a little uneasy
“Mr. Yang, are you looking for me?”
Yang Ye frowned and said: "Why did you even say yes? Are you so different from me?"
Chen Yulian suddenly felt embarrassed and defended: "No, it's just... you are my boss!"
"Look, isn't it nice of you to say that? Don't be so polite to me in the future, do you hear me?"
"Got it!"
"We haven't seen each other for so long, have you thought about it? Me?”
“Huh?”
Chen Yulian panicked. Since the release of "The Swordsman", she and Yang Ye have only met occasionally in the company. There was no special expression for her.
The days went on like this day by day, and she thought this incident would just pass.
Unexpectedly, Yang Ye suddenly sent someone over to call her again.
She was a little nervous when she came in, wondering if Yang Ye would bring up the old things again.
Seeing her flustered posture, Yang Ye couldn't help but stand up, walked to her side, raised her chin, transformed into a domineering president, and kissed her petal-like lips.
This was not the first time the two of them kissed. Chen Yulian was a little flustered at first, but soon responded enthusiastically.
After kissing for a while, Yang Ye let go of Chen Yulian with satisfaction.
Chen Yulian's face was flushed and her eyes were panicked. The kiss just made her confused and infatuated, but Yang Ye knew that she had a boyfriend. Such a relationship...
She struggled for a while and swelled. Courage said: "Can we not..."
"I'm going to see Mr. Jin Yong tonight, you go with me!"
Before Chen Yulian finished speaking, she was interrupted by Yang Ye Interrupted, and even said something about going to see Jin Yong, he couldn't help but wonder: "What are you doing to meet Mr. Jin Yong?"
"ATV is about to start filming "Dragon" and I want you to play Wang Yuyan. This is ATV's first Jin Yong drama. I hope the casting can be approved by Jin Yong, so I will take you to meet him."
< br>"Who is Wang Yuyan?" Chen Yulian said she had never heard of it!
“It’s Wang Yuyan, the heroine of Tian Long Ba Bu. Jin Yong changed her name. Our “Dragon Ba Bu” adopts a new plot of Jin Yong’s revised version of the novel, which is a little different from the original one.”
Because Yang Ye gave a lot of opinions to Jin Yong's revised version, Jin Yong is seriously considering it and making choices, so the current revised version of the novel has not yet been released.
Yang Ye’s version of the TV series directly adopts the content of the revised version, which not only respects the original work, but also provides new ideas to the audience, which is a double benefit.
"Oh!"
Chen Yulian agreed, but she couldn't say what she just wanted Yang Ye not to do to her like that.
“Let’s go!”
Yang Ye said, opening the door in front of him.
“Alas!”
Chen Yulian followed him and couldn't help but sigh.
In the future... let’s find another opportunity to talk about it!
Yang Yexian took Chen Yulian to Lishi Studio to try on the look.
Chen Yulian put on a costume specially customized for her, then changed her hairstyle, and immediately turned into a pure and pure fairy sister. Yang Ye was stunned.
This woman is naturally suited to ancient costumes, and her beauty cannot be shown in modern clothes!
Yang Ye praised: "On the mountain of Miaogushe, there are gods and men living there. The skin is like ice and snow, and the body is like a virgin. She does not eat grains, but breathes wind and drinks dew. Alian, you are my fairy sister!"
Chen Yulian was a little embarrassed by his praise and couldn't help but feel shy.
At this moment, a young man walked into the studio and shouted to Yang Ye: "Young Master Yang!"
Yang Ye turned his head and said with a smile: "Young Master Rong, Long time no see!”
That young man was Zhang Guorong. Zhang Guorong said: “No, I just met him a few days ago!”
"That was a meeting with colleagues from ATV, not counting!"
"That means we haven't seen each other for a long time. I heard that you often go to my shop to help out, but I rarely care about the shop after joining LiTV. La."
"Your clothes are of good quality, and I always have my clothes custom-made there."
"Thank you very much for your patronage, Mr. Huang, for letting me come to the studio. What's the matter with you?"
"Now ATV is preparing to start filming Jin Yong's drama, the first one is "Dragon Movie". I think your temperament is very suitable for playing Duan Yu. I don't know if you have it. Don’t have the confidence to play this role well?”
Zhang Guorong's character is like the boss of heaven and the second child of me. They are crazy about each other. Hearing this, he immediately put on an attitude of giving up on me and said confidently: "Of course I have it!"
Yang Ye nodded: "Then let's try pretending first!"
Zhang Guorong He agreed, nodded to Chen Yulian, and went to try on costumes.
Jin Yong was deeply influenced by Western learning. When he first started writing novels, he used a lot of techniques from Western novels and movies, even to the point of direct plagiarism.
For example, in "The Book of Swords and Enemies", the scene where Zhou Zhongying kills his son is blatantly copied from the French writer Mérimée's "Matteo Falcone".
The revision opinions given by Yang Ye clearly pointed out this point. You copied it too obviously.
Later Jin Yong changed the part about killing his son to manslaughter. Although the traces of plagiarism were a little lighter, the impact of the plot was far less.
In the later stages of his career, Jin Yong's skills became more and more profound, and the techniques and characters of Chinese classical novels were gradually integrated into his novels.
The two most important protagonists in "Tian Long Ba Bu", Duan Yu and Xiao Feng, were born out of the classics "A Dream of Red Mansions" and "Water Margin".
Duan Yu’s prototype is Jia Baoyu, and Xiao Feng’s prototype is Wu Song.
Jia Baoyu's "infatuation" with Lin Daiyu is exactly the same as Duan Yu's "infatuation" with Wang Yuyan.
When Jia Baoyu met Lin Daiyu for the first time, he blurted out, "I have seen this sister before." Duan Yu bowed his head to Wang Yuyan when he first saw her, calling her "fairy sister," which was similar in approach but in effect.
As for Xiao Feng and Wu Song, they are more similar. Not only are the characters similar, but the plot of Madam Ma killing Deputy Gang Leader Ma is copied from Pan Jinlian's poisoning of Wu Dalang.
Jinlian wanted to have sex with Erlang, but Erlang refused, and Dalang died. Mrs. Ma also wanted to have a fight with Brother Xiao. If Brother Xiao refused, Brother Ma would die.
So, when Yang Ye chose the actor to play Duan Yu, he asked to look like Jia Baoyu.
Not only is he a noble son, but he is also lustful, smart, silly, and has the looks of a boy and a girl...
From this point of view, there is no one more suitable than Leslie Cheung.
He was born into a wealthy family, but his family was in decline. He often showed a sense of insanity in his later film works, such as Ning Caichen in "A Chinese Ghost Story".
He drives as soon as he speaks. He is a real experienced driver. In fact, Leslie Cheung also played Jia Baoyu, although it was only a Category III film.
Leslie Cheung's appearance as Jia Baoyu in the movie is first-rate.
No need to act, it’s just like it.
Not long after, Leslie Cheung put on his costume and came out.
As soon as this guy came out, he consciously stood next to Chen Yulian, put his arm around her shoulders and said, "Mei Lian plays Wang Yuyan, right? What, we are a perfect match!"
< br>When he came up, they put their arms around each other, making Chen Yulian very embarrassed. Yang Ye wanted to say, Damn it, take your hand away.
But forget it, this guy has this kind of character, why should I argue with him?
He nodded and said: "Yes, let's take the makeup photos. I will invite Jin Yong to dinner tonight, you guys come with me!"
You have to pose in a few affectionate poses when taking photos. , it made Yang Ye’s balls ache.
Out of sight, out of mind, Yang Ye asked them to film first while he went to discuss the plot with the production team of "Dragon Movie".
……
This is the first time that "Dragon" has been filmed as a TV series. ATV attaches great importance to it and has sent out the strongest lineup in Taiwan.
McDonald is the producer, Xiao Sheng is the chief director, and Xiao Ruoyuan is the screenwriter.
Xu Xiaoming, Li Huimin, Lai Shuiqing, and Du Qifeng serve as executive directors.
To Qifeng followed Yang Ye as a recorder and ran errands for many years, and now he finally became a director, although he was only filming a TV series.
Since he is Yang Ye’s airborne force, no one dares to despise him.
Several people were having a meeting about screenwriting and casting, and Yang Ye walked in.
As soon as he came, he waved his hands and said: "You keep driving, I will listen, don't worry about me!"
But he is the boss and a talented film screenwriter, how can everyone ignore him?
McDonald said: "Mr. Yang, thanks to you, we got the revised version of "Dragon Movie" that has not yet been published. As for the screenwriting, you are a master. I wonder if you can give me some advice. ?”
Yang Ye looked at Xiao Ruoyuan and asked, “What do Ayuan think?”
Xiao Ruoyuan thought for a while and said: "I think Xiao Feng's story line is more attractive. His story should be extracted, from dark to bright, and made the leading actor. As for Duan Yu's role, it can be deleted appropriately."< br>
Yang Ye patted the table and praised: "Wow, in the novel Tian Long Ba Bu, the story on the surface begins with Duan Yu leaving home and ends with returning home. But in fact, the story begins with Xiao Feng It starts with birth and ends with suicide.
Moreover, Xiao Feng is much more popular than Duan Yu. It is a very smart move to select Xiao Feng as the leading actor. A Yuan, you are worthy of being a master of screenwriting. I admire you!"
Xiao Ruoyuan said: "You are so grateful, Mr. Yang!"
Yang Ye continued: "But if you want to extract Xiao Feng's story line, then you have to consider the rhythm of the TV series. The novel "Tian Long Ba Bu" has complex characters and multiple lines. It uses the "Water Margin"-style "Crossing Clouds and Broken Mountains" writing method. This writing method is extremely difficult and will be very confusing if you are not careful. Even Jin Yong can only do it reluctantly. If you disrupt Jin Yong’s rhythm, you must regain control of your own rhythm!”
Xiao Ruoyuan has scripted a large number of popular dramas and is very proud of himself, but Yang Ye goes straight to the core as soon as he speaks, which he has to admire. He said: "Young Master Yang really hit the nail on the head, I will be cautious."
Yang Ye looked at a bunch of photos on the table and asked: "Are you casting?"
McDonald nodded and asked: "Young Master Yang, what do you think?"
Yang Ye took the pile of photos and flipped through them casually, pointing to a very cute little girl and asked: "This What’s the girl’s name?”
McDonald took a look and said with a smile: “Her name is Li Saifeng. She just joined ATV this year and plays the role of Yang Yaman in our upcoming drama "The Love of the Earth". I think she She is very smart and I plan to let her play Zhong Ling!”
Yang Ye gave a like: "She looks very cute and plays Zhong Ling well!"
Yang Ye flipped through it casually again, put down the photo and asked: "Duan Zhengchun's wives, don't you have any candidates? "
McDonald said in confusion: "They are just supporting roles, and they don't have many roles. There is no need to care, right?"
Yang Ye shook his head: "Duan Zhengchun and his wife. They are definitely the highlight of this drama. Duan Zhengchun must find a well-known old handsome guy to play. His wives must all be beautiful women, preferably well-known ones, even if they steal the spotlight. It’s okay!”
Both McDonald and Xiao Sheng said they couldn’t understand. Is this... necessary?
Moreover, you don’t pay attention to the protagonist, but these supporting characters? What kind of trick is this?
How did they know that this was just Yang Ye's bad taste.
The wives of Duan Zhengchun in the 03 version of Tianlong compete one by one, and they are not inferior to Duan Zhengchun's daughters at all.
Now it's Yang Ye's turn to produce "Dragon Babu". Of course he has to compete with the 03 version of Tianlong.
Yang Ye thought for a while and said: "I will hire these actors. Duan Zhengchun asked Guan Shan to play. Duan Zhengchun's princess Dao Baifeng, asked Guan Shan's wife Zhang Bingqian to play."
McDonald asked strangely: "Aren't they divorced? Can they still act together?"
Yang Ye shook his head: "There is no divorce, it's just a conflict between the couple. Zhang Bingqian went to the United States. Their two parents-in-law are now The relationship is the same as that between Duan Zhengchun and Dao Baifeng in the play. They just take this filming opportunity to relax."
Xiao Sheng said: "Then we still have to go to the United States to invite Zhang Bingqian back?"< br>
Yang Ye said: "I'll just ask their daughter Guan Jiahui to invite her. Don't worry, we can handle it!"
Zhang Bingqian was a famous beauty from the Great Wall Film Company in the past. It's OK to invite her back. It adds a lot to "Dragon" and everyone naturally has no objection.
As soon as Yang Ye took action, it was Guan Shan and Zhang Bingqian. McDonald and others were very curious about who Duan Zhengchun's other wives would be. They must not be ordinary people.
Yang Ye continued: "Mu Wanqing's mother, Qin Hongmian, needs a more heroic image. I will ask Zheng Peipei to make a guest appearance."
Everyone is convinced, it is just a supporting role. Are you looking for a martial arts queen to play the role?
“Zhong Ling’s mother Gan Baobao, I will invite Shangguan Lingfeng to make a guest appearance.”
Shangguan Lingfeng is a martial arts queen as famous as Zheng Peipei, one of Hu Jinquan’s royal team, and she She also won the Golden Horse Award for Best Actress.
"A'Zhu and A'Zi's mother, Ruan Xingzhu, is very charming, and a little naughty and shrewd. I will invite Chen Sisi to make a guest appearance!"
Well, the three princesses of the Great Wall are here, and you, Mr. Yang, are very proud. !
"Mrs. Ma is actually Pan Jinlian. I will invite Hu Jin to come out!"
Hu Jin was a popular porn star of Shaw Brothers in the 1970s, specializing in romantic films. , win with coquettishness. Wen Juan, who was still a student at the time, watched her performance in "The Golden Vase" and got a nosebleed.
Hu Jin has now faded out of the film industry, but she is Li Hanxiang's goddaughter, and Li Hanxiang is Hu Jinquan's brother. Yang Ye only needs to tell Hu Jinquan to ask her to come out, and it is not a big problem.
"Finally, it's Wang Yuyan's mother Li Qingluo. We must find a peerless beauty to play this role. I will give it a try, please...Xia Meng come out!"
Yang Ye's words were shocking, and everyone was shocked. .
If Xia Meng can be invited out, this "Dragon Movie" can make Jin Yong happy.
Speaking of which, apart from Yang Ye, there is really no one else in Hong Kong who can do this.
Yang Ye said with a smile: "I used my personal connections to invite these people to come here as friendly guest stars, so you don't have to worry about the cost. How about it, are you all satisfied with my casting?"
You have made such a big move, what else can anyone say? They nodded together: "Satisfied, very satisfied!"
Yang Ye touched his chin and said: "Damn, I want to play Duan Zhengchun!"
