Chapter 580 624 "Shooting the Condors" Actors Parade
In mid-April, the crew of "Shaolin Temple" led by the Mainland's Ministry of Culture returned to BJ. Before that, they had already carried out publicity work in most Asian countries. In the next half month, they will focus on national tour performances.

This is a publicity measure jointly agreed upon by the Ministry of Culture and Xiehe Company. Xiehe earlier used "Mythology" to promote Chinese Qin Dynasty culture to developed countries such as Europe and the United States. This time, the Ministry of Culture will naturally not let go of this great opportunity to improve Chinese film culture. Therefore, from the very beginning, the Ministry of Culture took over the promotion work of "Shaolin Temple".

Wang Xiaohu didn't have any opinions. After all, the more proactive the Ministry of Culture and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs are, the less pressure the Xiehe Company will have to work on. In addition, there will be a part of publicity expenses left over, which can not only improve the promotion of Chinese culture, but also make "Shaolin Temple" In all aspects of publicity, with such a good free helper, Wang Xiaohu is also happy to be at leisure, isn't he?
So taking advantage of this free time, Wang Xiaohu started to do another thing: Zhang Luo's cast of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

Especially for the generation born in the 70s and 80s, the 1983 edition of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is a classic of the Condor Shooting.

Just like creating "Shanghai Bund" and "Huo Yuanjia", what Wang Xiaohu has to do is to improve the martial arts effects and shooting skills in the film. Anyway, Weng Meiling has returned to Hong Kong, in order to make "The Condor Shooting" into an unsurpassed future. For classic production, Wang Xiaohu had to work harder.

When Wang Xiaohu told Jin Yong that he was preparing to shoot "Shooting the Condors", Jin Yong was very happy.

"Xiaohu, I have been waiting for nine years, and you are finally willing to shoot this movie!"

Jin Yong's mood can be imagined. In the past nine years, one of Gu Long's works has been made into TV series and movies, which greatly increased the sales of his novels in Southeast Asia. On the other hand, in the first few days, Wang Xiaohu sternly defended his copyright. He said that after adapting "Shooting the Condors" into a trilogy, he still hasn't filmed, saying that he has to wait for others.

Later, Wang Xiaohu released the copyright, but the effects of several TV series produced by TVB or Li's were not very good. It is undeniable that the casts selected by the two TV stations are very strong. The adaptations are messy, and many of them deviate from the essence of the original. How can you make Jin Yong not sigh.

The popularity of "Jing Fu Men" and "Shanghai Bund" gave Jin Yong some hope, because it is impossible for several TV workers in Hong Kong to be willing to spend a lot of money on big productions like Wang Xiaohu, and shoot TV dramas like movies.

So Jin Yong couldn't express his excitement in words when he heard the good news.

"I've been waiting for nine years!" Wang Xiaohu comforted Jin Yong and said, "With me here, don't worry about the quality of the TV series. I will strictly follow the script nine years ago."

"Where are the actors! Who will play Guo Jing and who will play Huang Rong!" Jin Yong shouted, "These two are the soul characters in "Shooting the Condors", and they cannot be played by just anyone."

"It's settled, it's settled!" Wang Xiaohu said, "I came to you today just to implement this matter, first finalize the cast, so that you can always relax."

There is a special scenic spot in the southeast corner of Xiehe Film and Television City, which is called "Little Jiangnan" in Hong Kong by insiders.

"Little Jiangnan" is a scene specially planned by Wang Xiaohu at the beginning of the establishment of the film and television city, mainly for the filming of "Shooting the Condors". And other TVB large-scale costume TV series.

Because of the beautiful scenery and the atmosphere of the land of fish and rice in the south of the Yangtze River in mainland China, most of the Hong Kong film and television dramas with costumes are shot here, and it has become one of the most popular scenes in Xiehe Film and Television City.

Not far from the "Little Jiangnan", there is the "Little West Lake" specially constructed by Wang Xiaohu for "The Legend of the New White Snake". Of course, it is far inferior to the Hangzhou West Lake in the mainland. The two scenes and other exterior scenes related to "New White" were also filmed in the mainland.

Today, the scene of "Little Jiangnan" is crowded with people. Several old actors from Jiayi TV Station, which went bankrupt in the early years, and several popular young students and Hua Dan from TVB were invited to be guests in Yanyu Building.

Zeng Jiang (Huang Yaoshi), Yang Zelin (Ouyang Feng), Liu Dan (Hong Qigong), Liu Zhaoming (Nandi), Qin Pei (Tiemuzhen), Xie Xian (Yang Tiexin), Zhu Tiehe (Guo Xiaotian), Shi Jian (Qiu Qianren) ), Guan Haishan (Lu Chengfeng), Jiang Yi (Ke Zhen'e) and other old actors sat in the middle drinking tea. It is rare for these old actors to hold together, so naturally they have a lot to say.

Miao Qiaowei (Yang Kang), Huang Yuncai (Ouyang Ke), Yang Panpan (Mu Nianci), Qin Huang (Old Urchin), Wu Mengda (Peng Elder), Huang Wenhui (Mei Chaofeng) and others sat on the left round table in the Yanyu Building.

On the round table on the right are Huang Rihua, Andy Lau, Stephen Chow, Mo Moyan, and Weng Meiling from "The New Seven Little Fortunes". These five young people have been busy serving tea and water for the actors on the two tables and replacing snacks.

"Xingzi, did Ah Hu say when he'll be here?"

Among the people present, only Wu Mengda was familiar with the new seven little blessings, so after drinking tea for half an hour, he asked Zhou Xingchi. "Everyone has been waiting for a long time."

Among the people present, Shi Jian has the highest seniority, and he is the artist who has collaborated with Wang Xiaohu a lot. When he and Guan Dexing filmed "Huang Feihong" in the early years, Zeng Jiang and Liu Dan hadn't entered the industry yet.

So when he heard that Wu Mengda wanted Zhou Xingchi to urge Wang Xiaohu, he said, "Ada, don't you urge, Xiaohu has a lot of things to do recently, we old guys can still wait."

"Yes, everyone hasn't come out for a long time to get together, thanks to Xiaohu who is willing to give us old guys a job, it doesn't matter if you wait longer, come, Uncle Jian, drink tea, your old body is still so strong." Zeng Jiang smiled. Said.

All the old actors, young students, and Huadans are busy with smiling faces.

After drinking the tea, Weng Meiling hurried over to pour tea with an antique teapot, calling "Uncle" one by one, and the happy old drama players were in a particularly cheerful mood.

"These apprentices that Xiaohu has accepted are all good. You see, Xingzi and Huazi have started to play supporting roles in TVB. It's really embarrassing for them to be so famous when they were young, and Xiaohu let them play tricks." Qin Pei sighed and said: "I miss us Once you became famous back then, you couldn’t immediately become a leading actor.”

Zhou Xingchi laughed and said: "Uncle Qin, Master said, we are still young and need to hone our acting skills, the entertainment industry in the future will require us to take the lead."

"Hahaha~~You star boy did not hide your words!" Xie Xian finished joking, and then said to Guan Haishan next to him: "I heard that Xiaohu asked you to shoot a literary film?"

Guan Haishan nodded and said, "Yes, I'm the leading actor, but I'm dumb. It really tortured my acting skills."

"Look how much Xiaohu lifts you up, I haven't received Xiaohu's call for five or six years, hahaha~~" Shi Jian said with a big laugh.

"Uncle Jian, you spoke ill of me behind my back again, this time I got caught!"

Just when everyone was laughing, Wang Xiaohu, Zhao Yazhi, and Jin Yong walked into the Yanyu Tower.

As soon as the master came, no matter if it was an old drama player or a young student, Hua Dan immediately stood up and greeted Wang Xiaohu.

"I'm not talking bad about you behind your back, I'm clearly complaining to you in front of everyone." Shi Jian smiled, and walked over to greet Jin Yong first: "Why is Mr. Cha interested?"

Jin Yong smiled and said, "Xiaohu invited me to the military parade."

"parade?"

Everyone was stunned, they didn't know what they were going to do today, they only knew that Wang Xiaohu had sent invitations to everyone, saying that he had something important to discuss in the Yanyu Building, and when he got there, everyone asked me, I asked you, I don't know the real reason, just wait for Wang Xiaohu to solve the mystery.

Wang Xiaohu swept across everyone's faces with a smile. Looking at the lineup of the original "Shooting the Condors", he was filled with emotion. He knew that another classic was about to be born in his own hands. With such excitement, he placed He waved his hand and said, "Everyone sit down first."

After everyone sat down, Wang Xiaohu said in a soft voice: "I invite you here today because there is a play that needs your help, Ah Weng, let's have dinner!"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, thinking that filming is just about filming, why are they still making such a fuss.

I saw Weng Meiling smiling and showing her small canine teeth, and came up with a big plate. The plate was not a big dish, but stacks of books neatly arranged.

Afterwards, Zhou Xingchi, Huang Rihua, and Andy Lau also came up with the same plate.

"Distribute scripts and novels according to everyone's name."

As soon as Wang Xiaohu gave an order, the four apprentices immediately distributed the scripts and novels in their hands according to the names of the people.

There are two books in front of everyone. To be precise, one is the hardcover version of the physical novel "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", and the other is the script of the same name. The packaging is also exquisite, but the scripts everyone gets are different. Different, in addition to the five big characters of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", there are two other lines of small characters.

They are the name of the actor, the name of the role played, remarks, etc.

For example, Shi Jian's book says actors: Shi Jian, playing Qiu Qianren and Qiu Qianzhang, the leader of the Iron Palm Gang and his younger brother, with special skills: Iron Sand Palm, Lightness Kung Fu.

For example, Liu Dan wrote here: Playing the role of Hong Qigong, the beggar of the North, the leader of the Beggar Clan, with special skills: Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, Dog Beating Stick, etc.

Everyone has basically read the novel "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", and they have some impressions. Now that they are about to play the role of a certain hero in the novel, everyone is very excited, especially after seeing Yang Kang in the script. , his whole face was full of smiles, and he hurriedly opened the script to see his own part.

In addition to the different covers, the contents of the scripts are also slightly different. The parts of different people's scripts that belong to their respective roles have been planned out with red notes, and a small catalog is listed, which you can easily find that part of yourself.

All of a sudden, the sound of flipping through books came from inside the Yanyu building, and Jin Yong was also looking at the script in front of him. He was probably the happiest among the crowd.

From the hardcover of the novel and script in front of him, it can be seen that Wang Xiaohu is very attentive to this matter. Jin Yong only feels that the nine years of waiting are not in vain. His script is exactly the same as Wang Xiaohu's script, both of which are directed by the director.

In the general outline of the catalog, it is written in detail which character each actor plays in the book, and all the scenes in the novel are displayed in the form of photos in the script, including the Yanyu Building where they are currently located, and the "Little Jiangnan" part The scenes, and the remaining locations such as the desert, Mongolia, etc. were directly summarized by Wang Xiaohu with the six words "real scene shooting in the mainland", and there are detailed shooting locations.

The more Jin Yong watched it, the warmer he felt, and the stronger his confidence in Wang Xiaohu's desire to make "The Condor Shooting" a classic TV series.

"Everyone." Fifteen minutes later, Wang Xiaohu clapped his hands and said, "As you all have seen, it is Mr. Cha's "Legend of the Condor Heroes" that we Xiehe will start filming at the end of this year. I know who I want to play."

Everyone nodded and looked at Wang Xiaohu eagerly, waiting for his next words.

"The reason why I give you a novel and a script is just to let everyone fully understand and understand the relationship between the novel and the adapted script in the next six months. If you feel that there are some adaptations in the script and the characters you play If you are very surprised, everyone is welcome to give me your opinion, I will study it with Mr. Cha, if your opinion is good, then of course we will adopt your opinion."

"I'm done talking, old Dou, do you think there is anything else to add?" Wang Xiaohu said to Jin Yong sideways.

Jin Yong grinned and said, "What Xiaohu said is quite good. The script was written nine years ago. I am very satisfied, and I also believe that the person Xiaohu chooses. If he writes a novel, he might as well say , but when writing scripts and shooting film and television dramas, his vision is definitely the best in the industry."

After Jin Yong said this, no one felt any disgust. Yes, they all admire Wang Xiaohu's vision and script from the bottom of their hearts. The examples of "The Door" and "Shanghai Bund" are placed in front of them.

Veteran actors can add a layer of gold to their acting career, while TVB, Jiayi, and Li's leading niches and Huadans can use "Shooting the Condor" to raise their social status by several levels!

Who wouldn't agree to such a good thing, so everyone nodded and said with a smile to thank Wang Xiaohu for the great opportunity.

"Hiss~ Xiaohu, you haven't told me who plays Huang Rong or Guo Jing." Jin Yong suddenly frowned after drinking a cup of tea.

It was only then that everyone suddenly realized, that's right, the scripts everyone got were supporting roles, where is the protagonist?

Just when everyone was wondering, a yellow figure suddenly flashed in the Yanyu building, and he turned over beautifully and landed in front of Jin Yong. He was wearing a yellow and green costume, and he folded a wicker in his hand , clasping fists and saluting: "Huang Rong, the daughter of the Lord of Peach Blossom Island, pay my respects to King Jin!"

With a clear and slightly mischievous voice, when she raised her head, Jin Yong's eyes lit up with her handsome face and unparalleled eyes, and Jin Yong's hero immediately made a decision: "This is Huang Rong!"
