Chapter 117, Between Sentiment and Innovation

“That’s great.”

"What's good?"

"It seems that my physique is still pretty good."

"Um"

At this moment, Li Yun felt contentedly about his ferocious [martial arts]. The disappeared feeling came back again. It was the same feeling that had disappeared when he was filming "The World's Number One". After being a eunuch for a quarter, my [martial arts] is still there.

"You are really strange, Master Nie." At this time, Tian Xiaoli was combing her hair and said lightly: "Did you come to me just to verify that your [martial arts] have regressed?"

After resting for a while in the capital, Li Yun also took some time out from his busy schedule to find Tian Xiaoli, to get familiar with the feeling he had lost during the days of filming. What impressed Eunuch Cao the most was probably the feeling of emptiness. The sense of immersion given by the system was really strong.

This made Li Yun think that he was a eunuch and a government official.

This kind of thing will still happen after filming.

The illusion of 'losing'.

But fortunately.

It was just an illusion. At least I hadn't really lost my martial arts as a man.

"Not entirely. Are you here to relax?" Li Yun said with a smile.

"Okay." Tian Xiaoli didn't care at this time. She also needed to relax. While putting on her clothes, she said, "Your Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils will be released soon, right?"

"Yes, you see."

"Yes."

Tian Xiaoli smiled and said at this time.

For a masterpiece like Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, actors also need to observe the characters in it.

In addition, Tian Xiaoli herself has a certain interest in watching martial arts dramas and plans to settle down here in the future.

"The industry is arguing about which version is better, Zhang Da Huzi or the TVB version."

"What do you think?" Li Yun also touched his chin and said.

"How should I put it? Personally, I prefer the version starring Zhang Da Huzi. However, Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils from TVB also occupies a large proportion in my feelings, so maybe it can get more points." Tian Xiaoli thought about her impression of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils from TVB, the hero Qiao who appeared with a speaker, the strategist Murong Fu, and the fist-to-flesh fighting scenes.

Regardless of other aspects, at least Tian Xiaoli feels that the fighting scenes are definitely not better than TVB, which is TVB's strong point.

Even many people who are optimistic about the CCTV version of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils do not think that the fighting scenes are better than the TVB version.

As for the actors, that is still up for discussion. Some people think that the TVB version is stronger, while others think that the actors in the new Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils will perform better.

Qiao Feng, Wang Yuyan, and Murong Fu are considered to be the most definitive characters in public opinion, with everyone believing that these three characters are not as good as the classic images created in the TVB version.

“Indeed, I feel that the old is not as good as the new, but some characters are more classic.”

"So you think my Murong Fu will be worse than the old version?" Li Yun joked at this time.

"How should I put it? I don't know, Master Nie."

What is reflected in Tian Xiaoli's pupils is still that great hero.

"I'm not Hero Nie, I'm Hero Li."

"Yes, Hero Li and Hero Nie."

At this time, Tian Xiaoli put her hands on Li Yun's shoulders, and whispered with misty eyes: "In my eyes, you are the hero Nie, but in the eyes of others, you may be some other hero."

Li Yun didn't say anything either.

Smiled.

At this time, Tian Xiaoli said.

"Promise me one thing."

"What's up?"

"Can you be Hero Nie for another 12 hours?"

The pilot film of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils is also being promoted in full swing at this moment, and TVB is also trying to add fuel to the fire.

Now everyone knows that the CCTV version of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils will be released at this time. For the crew of the CCTV version of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, the gap between the CCTV version and the TVB version is too big.

There will be pressure too The pressure is not small In fact, with the example of The Legend of the Condor Heroes, we know the advantages and disadvantages of Zhang Da Huzi's version. The biggest advantage is the scenery and setting, which are the advantages of Zhang Da Huzi's version.

The disadvantages are probably the fighting scenes and the actors' personal expressiveness.

Especially for the TVB version that created classic characters from the previous work At this moment, Li Yun also appeared in Zhang Da Huzi's villa.

The main creative team of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils gathered here.

"It's so luxurious." At this moment, Li Yun looked at the big villa of the bearded man and couldn't help but feel a little envious. The 600-square-meter villa is located in the third ring of Beijing. Even at this time, it is still valuable and the price is not low. At this time, Liu Qianqian looked at Li Yun and patted the seat next to her. She specially reserved a seat next to her. "Here, here, Brother Li!"

"Why isn't he cousin Murong Fu?" Hu Jun beside him teased.

"Brother Li is Brother Li." Liu Qianqian looked at Hu Jun at this time, but it was natural.

Including Hu Jun and others, many people have already arrived to prepare for the prime time premiere at 8pm.

CCTV-6’s prime time eight o’clock program.

Interestingly, TVB’s Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils also chose to be broadcast during the prime 8 o’clock time slot.

Resuming the broadcast at this point in time is also meant to compete with the CCTV version of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils... it has now been made public.

Regardless of whether it is to attract attention or something else, this conflict has been brought to light.

It means to rebroadcast the program during the time slot when you have already aired it.

"The leaders of TVB are really radical. They are resuming the broadcast here with me, and even the time point is exactly the same." Zhang Da Huzi was also a little surprised. In order to resume the broadcast this time, he even specially reproduced a pilot film.

Even the music was sung by Zhou Jian himself.

This memory was immediately brought back.

This time it’s very clear that they want to sell sentiment.

In fact, many people also share this sentiment.

Memories of youth bring many filters, and when these filters are beautified with time, many shortcomings are no longer shortcomings.

If the rebroadcast was staggered in time, it might be to catch the attention of the audience, but even the broadcast time is exactly the same, which is already a competition.

Openly trying to steal the other party's ratings.

It's clear that we're going to fight with bayonets here.

"Brother Li, are you nervous?"

"well enough."

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

At this moment, Liu Qianqian was sitting next to Li Yun. The smell was very fragrant, still the scent of gardenia.

Li Yun looked at Liu Qianqian and suddenly thought.

Grow up.

Nearly half a year has passed since the filming of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, and this time has been a time when the girl has been growing up silently.

The girl Liu Qianqian is growing up.

Liu Qianqian has not been filming during this period and has been studying at school.

I want to hear Li Yun talk about the filming.

Li Yun only said that he played a eunuch . Liu Qianqian was a little curious about why he played a eunuch.

In fact, Hu Jun also raised his eyebrows here.

"It seems unimaginable that Xiao Li plays a eunuch."

When Hu Jun saw Li Yun, the first person he thought of was Murong Fu . However, Hu Jun had a very deep impression of this Murong Fu. After the filming was completed, in Hu Jun's mind, he still thought of Li Yun's Murong Fu, or the Nan Murong in the chaotic Jianghu.

But the impression is still very deep.

Of course, Hu Jun still thinks.

For most people, TVB's Murong Fu is also extremely classic.

Just like his role as Qiao Feng, there is a hero carrying a speaker.

"This time, Xiao Li is under a lot of pressure." Hu Jun next to him said, "The previous work was Yang Guoqiang's Murong Fu."

Of course, Hu Jun himself was under a lot of pressure. After all, both Murong Fu and Qiao Feng were already established classic characters, and this time they were released simultaneously.

"I still have some confidence in our Xiao Li." Unexpectedly, it was Lin Zhiying who said this: "When I think of my cousin now, I still think of Xiao Li's face. The impression is very deep. After so long, I still can't forget it."

“Hahahahahaha.”

Hu Jun was also joking nearby. As far as the reputation of the character was concerned, Lin Zhiying did not feel much pressure. After all, he was quite suitable for the role. Although Chen Haoming in the previous film was excellent, he was not as memorable as Murong Fu and Qiao Feng.

This time, Lin Zhiying does not have the pressure of the role's reputation.

"The characters with the greatest pressure in terms of reputation this time are probably Murong Fu, Qiao Feng, and Wang Yuyan." Zhou Liang paused and said, "But as long as our overall quality is better than theirs, there will be no problem."

For the crew itself, it is enough that the overall quality surpasses TVB's "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils".

Zhou Liang is still somewhat confident about this.

The money is not wasted. The budget of the Bearded Man version of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils is more than 10 times that of TVB. How could the effect be the same?

You may not get what you pay for, but you definitely get what you pay for in terms of visual effects.

"This time, the greater pressure is on the characters themselves. The overall quality is obvious to all with the example of The Legend of the Condor Heroes." Yu Jian smiled and said, "We are just riding on the popularity this time, so let it be. Overall, our ratings should not be bad. After all, they are re-running the show, so they can't pull much away from it."

Even if there are many people who favor the past over the present in public opinion, the ratings will not be bad.

It’s better to watch the new rather than the old. After all, the old stuff has been rebroadcast so many times. In fact, many people present have indeed watched it several times.

It’s just that this kind of behavior of riding on the popularity makes people laugh and cry.

At this moment, Zhang Da Huzi also came over and turned on the big color TV.

"Get ready, everyone."

"Shall we reminisce for a bit? Listen to some difficult sutras?"

"Hahaha." Everyone laughed.

At this time, Zhang Da Huzi smiled and the TV station was switched to the local channel.

Eight o'clock.

The theme song of TVB’s Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils was played on the local TV station - The Hard-to-Recite Sutra. Qiao Feng made a dashing appearance carrying a speaker.

Li Yun listened to Zhou Jian's difficult words.

Memories suddenly came to my mind.

“It’s a difficult sutra to recite.”

At this time, CCTV-6's "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" also officially began.
