Chapter 116, Tianlong Premiere
On TVB's side.
As an old TV station, no one can match it in squeezing the value of actors and scripts, and Jin Yong's dramas have already been remade thoroughly.
At least before Zhang Da Huzi's remake of Jin Yong's drama came out, TVB felt that it would have no rivals in the past twenty years.
It was only when Zhang Da Huzi's "money power" appeared that TVB really became greedy, and even a little jealous.
"Ah, just like The Legend of the Condor Heroes, they rely on money to suppress our TVB dramas. It's good to have money." Li Tiansheng looked at the newspaper sourly.
He directed and produced TVB's The Deer and the Cauldron, The Legend of the Condor Heroes, The Return of the Condor Heroes, and Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils.
It can be said that it created a prosperous era for Jin Yong's martial arts novels on TVB.
However, precisely because it created an era, we also know what the shortcomings of TVB dramas are compared to Zhang Da Hu's Jin Yong dramas.
TVB uses rockery.
People like Zhang Da Huzi use towering mountains and steep cliffs.
TVB uses studio shooting.
Zhang Da Huzi even built a film and television city specifically for the "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils".
"Hahaha, Uncle Tian, don't belittle yourself. Although his big-bearded The Legend of the Condor Heroes has a good reputation, it still can't beat our The Legend of the Condor Heroes." Next to him, TVB's Liu Jiahao smiled and said, "TV dramas are ultimately performed by actors."
What is most important for an actor to perform? Of course, it is the script, the actor, the acting skills, and the lines. "Of course I know that. I was thinking, if we had the resources of CCTV at that time, we would definitely be able to polish the work to perfection."
“Haha, there will be a chance in the future.”
Chance?
Li Tiansheng thought that if he wanted to have resources like Zhang Da Huzi, he would have to wait for the rest of his life for the opportunity offered by TVB. Of course, Li Tiansheng would never say that.
Right now.
Liu Jiahao said.
"By the way, Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils will be rebroadcast on major TV stations soon, so we will also gather the old actors to do some activities."
"Ah, is this the official start of our war against Zhang Da Huzi's "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils"?
"It's not like we're going to start a war, but since the heat is building now, it's okay for us to follow suit."
It is true that TVB wants to take advantage of the popularity of the CCTV version . "What do you think of the newly released "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils", Mr. Huang, Mr. Yang?"
"If it's Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, I think we won't lose to anyone. No one."
Huang Huari and Yang Guoqiang smiled at each other and once again enjoyed the feeling of being in the spotlight.
At this time, in order to rebroadcast "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils", TVB TV station also gathered old actors to sell some feelings and do a pilot event, just like the release of a new drama.
If you don't take advantage of the popularity, you'd be a bastard. This includes Huang Huari and Yang Guoqiang, who have long been tepid.
As well as Chen Haoming and Li Rutong who are still popular.
When the TVB version was first broadcast, these were the ones who were most discussed and had the best fit for their roles.
There is no need to say much about Li Ruotong's fairy. Chen Haoming has been the leading actor of TVB since then. On the contrary, Yang Guoqiang and Huang Huari have gradually become ordinary. It's not that they acted badly, but that they acted too well.
It is simply impossible for others to put themselves in the shoes of characters other than Qiao Feng and Murong Fu.
But as an actor, they are undoubtedly worthy of pride.
After all, most actors will never be able to play a memorable role in their entire life.
Being able to play a role that people can call out by name is something that should be proud of in one's acting career.
In fact, there are indeed many die-hard fans of the TVB version of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils. After hearing that TVB is organizing a special event for Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, many of them expressed their support.
That's what feelings are.
The current TVB version of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils is still a 'classic'.
Ten years from now, I'm afraid that the word of mouth will become increasingly vague as the audience's memory of it becomes blurred, and it will become a "shocking" work.
And at this time.
In TVB's activity room.
Huang Huari smiled and said.
"It's true that the new generation pushes the old generation forward. In fact, I think Hu Jun's Qiao Feng shouldn't be any worse than mine."
In front of the media and behind the scenes, Huang Huari has a different attitude.
It’s also my own opinion.
“Don’t underestimate yourself. We have created such classic characters that have been replayed for so many years, and the audiences absolutely recognize our achievements. One can say that when the audiences think of Murong Fu and Qiao Feng, our faces are the first ones they think of.” Yang Guoqiang also felt emotional. Murong Fu could be said to be the pinnacle of his career.
An absolute pinnacle.
Even after that he played many roles, none of them was memorable, let alone the peak of his career like Murong Fu.
but.
As an actor.
Having such a peak in career is already a blessing in the acting career Not to mention.
"I heard that this time, the role of Murong Fu in Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils was played by an actor who has just debuted."
The implication is probably that at least in this version of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, there is a high probability that there will be no controversy regarding the role of Murong Fu.
This is also the overall evaluation of TVB's old drama crew.
No matter how Yang Guoqiang acts now.
At least the character of Murong Fu.
No one should be able to surpass it.
At least he's not being surpassed by a young actor right now.
"TVB's Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils is using our new Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils to promote its new show. It's making quite a splash."
Zhang Da Huzi stroked his beard and didn't care about the media reporters who were trying to drag him down.
TVB's "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" is also a normal business behavior. Zhang Da Huzi feels that if he were in a different position, he would definitely be more arrogant and would definitely take advantage of the launch of this wave of new dramas to hype up the old dramas.
It's human nature and business behavior, so it's not a big deal.
"We don't care about them. We just follow our own promotional rhythm. We don't care about the media either. Let them talk about what they want."
Anyway, no matter how they pull others down, the popularity will only increase, so why not do it?
All Zhang Da Huzi wants is ratings! At this moment.
Li Yun took a break from his busy schedule at home after receiving his film pay.
It seems that I have found something to do.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6-9!
Bid farewell to Cao Zhengchun's nine-day rest time.
During this period of time, I relaxed myself well. In addition to the improvement of my life by adding an egg to every meal and eating meat every day, I should also consider things like housing. In this place in the second ring road, the down payment is 100,000 yuan.
I am still 80,000 yuan short of this goal. Oh, yes, plus the share from the agency, I should still be short of 70,000 yuan. There are also miscellaneous expenses, and I can't spend it all at once. I have to save at least another 100,000 yuan to pay the down payment.
Fortunately, every time I broadcast a new drama, my pay in all aspects will increase automatically.
The entertainment industry is both transparent and opaque. Everyone has their own value. Directors, actors, screenwriters, and even investors themselves have constant value.
The door is clear.
Now Li Yun is looking at his pay for movies and TV shows, which are probably between 20,000 and 25,000 yuan. If you count each episode of a TV series, it's about 1,000 yuan.
Liu Xixi's price is higher, 2,000 yuan per episode.
It seems that getting another house is not far away.
after all.
The pay will also go up.
As for now, Li Yun feels that he has realized his original dream to a small extent: egg freedom and beef freedom.
The feeling of being free from meat is really good. "By the way, why do you like eating steamed buns so much now?"
"Why do you always care about this?" Li Yun said helplessly while eating a steamed bun: "Don't I always love eating steamed buns?"
"I remember you said before that when you were working in Hengdian, you ate too many steamed buns and vomited."
"Well, maybe my taste has changed. I think steamed buns are very fragrant."
Jiang Chenggang felt that Li Yun was a little strange recently, but he didn't worry about it. He thought it would be better for him to control his figure. Li Yun didn't have to control his figure either.
She looks thin when dressed and muscular when undressed. The fat boy Jiang Chenggang is so envious that he wants to cry.
At this time, Jiang Chenggang also told Li Yun about the next itinerary.
The specific audition time for "New Police Story" has also been announced. You will be able to participate in the audition in a few days. Your main competitors are Nathan Chan and Vincent Wu.
Li Yun nodded.
“It’s not a big problem.”
Right now.
Li Yun thought of the crazy young man.
The one with a running beast in his heart.
'Guan Yun'. Although he couldn't see him at this time, Li Yun could still feel the malice of this personality.
He is not a good man.
The broadcast of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils was also quite huge, and there were indeed quite a few TV drama groups.
Fans of the original novel and fans of martial arts TV dramas are all potential audiences.
What was finally verified was the quality of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils.
At this moment, Li Yun was not nervous. He was enjoying his leisure time at home and using his film pay to buy the comics, games, CD books, food he wanted, and some old movie CDs he wanted.
It was a bit of money, but the money spent was not much. After all, the prices in that era were still quite cheap, and a CD cost only 5 yuan.
It’s a bit expensive for me when I was a young kid in Hengpiao.
But for me now, I can consume freely.
Li Yun can feel the accumulation of little happiness brought by a slightly more affluent economy. Maybe after receiving the pay for the next film, he can even buy a computer that can play World of Warcraft.
In my previous life, I had this regret that I never had a computer that could play World of Warcraft.
Li Yun made the distinction very clear.
As an actor, one must reach the pinnacle of being a Thousand-Faced Movie Emperor, enjoy the glory and wealth that comes with it, and cure one's illness.
As a living person, I have to protect my hobbies and my life. My next plan is to audition for New Police Story and the new movie SPL.
As for TV series, we are waiting for the broadcast of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils.
Zhang Da Huzi also organized a viewing for the premiere and stayed in his Dabieye home in the suburbs.
Li Yun was naturally among those invited.
