This is also the story structure that the original author Mao Ni prefers to use. The male protagonist has an extraordinary background and enters the world with a special mission, which attracts the infighting and scheming of various forces, some of which have good intentions and some bad.
What the male protagonist did during this period was to break through step by step, reveal the truth, eliminate the enemies, expand his strength and influence, and finally reach the top.
The first season of "Joy of Life" is based on the plot of the fight for the throne, with the hero Fan Xian stirring up trouble in both Qing and Northern Qi.
Compared to "The East Palace" and "Come on, Mr. Love", which focus mainly on the male and female protagonists, "Joy of Life" is a male-dominated drama, but it can also be said to be a group drama.
In addition to the male protagonist who has a lot of scenes, many supporting characters also have wonderful roles, and various forces compete with each other, one thing after another.
The role of Fan Xian is not particularly difficult to perform, at least Wei Yang feels that it is slightly worse than Li Chengyin in "The East Palace".
The latter can be said to be the character with the most layered arc among all the roles played by Wei Yang, and is also one of the best completed. Compared with Fan Xian, at least in the first part, Wei Yang feels that the character's charm is inferior to Li Chengyin.
However, filming in "Joy of Life" is not without its advantages. There are more powerful and veteran actors in this drama, and most of them have rival scenes with Wei Yang.
This gave Wei Yang new opportunities to hone his acting skills and learn from them.
To be honest, Wei Yang has grown a lot in his two recent dramas, except for "Eastern Palace", "Come on, My Love" is purely for promoting himself and making money, a typical comfort zone work, which is of almost no help to his performance.
As the filming was about to begin, Boss Wei felt a little nervous. It would be funny if the performance went wrong.
Therefore, when he was in the crew of "Joy of Life", he also seized the opportunity to seek advice from several veteran actors such as Chen Baoguo and Wu Gang.
Chen Baoguo is one of the acting ceilings for male actors in mainland China. He cannot be said to be firmly in the top five, but he is definitely a strong contender.
The latter, Wu Gang, is also one of the five famous tigers of the National Theatre of China, a talented person who has emerged from decades of experience on the drama stage.
Even Wang Jinsong, Chen Su, Wang Yang, Tian Yu and others are better than Wei Yang and can be considered his role models.
"Joy of Life" started filming on March 10th, with two groups shooting at the same time, so the progress is relatively fast.
Especially the literary scenes, most of which went smoothly, but the martial arts scenes were somewhat slowed down.
The martial arts instructors for both "The East Palace" and "Joy of Life" are Chen Weitao, who is Tangren's exclusive martial arts instructor.
He led the team responsible for the action design of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3", "The Strange Hero Yizhimei", "Young Generals of the Yang Family", "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and the "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" series.
From the above resumes, we can also see how capable this person is.
Wei Yang had met this person when he was filming "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3", so when he was preparing to film "Eastern Palace", he asked Tangren to borrow him for a period of time.
At that time, he was running back and forth between the crews of "The Strange Hero Yizhimei" and "The East Palace". If it weren't for Boss Wei's great reputation, he would have been hard to hire.
There were not many fighting scenes in "Eastern Palace" at the beginning, but "Joy of Life" is different. Although there are some high-level martial arts elements and big moves can be used, there are also inevitable fighting scenes, especially for the male lead Wei Yang, who has a lot of fighting scenes.
This kind of fighting scene is exactly what Boss Wei, who is not good at action scenes, hates the most.
Hotel room "hiss...ha..."
Wei Yang lay on the bed with his bare chest, grinning. Liu Shishi took safflower oil and applied it to his right shoulder and the back of his waist.
Today the crew was filming the scene where Fujiko Kyo was killed. Wei Yang didn't do the movements well and got bruised in two places. He went to the local clinic in Hengdian and was told it wasn't a big deal and it would be fine after the bruises and swelling were reduced.
"You said you're a screenwriter and you don't like fighting scenes, so why don't you just wipe it off? Why do you have to do it yourself?"
After applying the medicine, Liu Shishi looked at Wei Yang's miserable appearance and couldn't help feeling distressed and complaining out loud.
"Some scenes can be erased, but how can we erase some scenes? Fujiko Kyo's death is the highlight of Fan Xian's growth and transformation, so we have to film it. How is Wang Yang? I think he's injured, too."
"It's just a little strain, it's okay."
It is normal for actors to suffer minor injuries when filming action scenes, especially fighting scenes. Especially for those like Wei Yang and Wang Yang, who have less experience in action scenes and are not very good at protecting themselves, it is inevitable that they will suffer some minor bumps and bruises.
In comparison, their situation is still relatively good; their movements are not intense and they basically won't suffer any serious injuries.
In real action scenes with fistfights, injuries are serious. Broken bones are common, and if you are unlucky, you will have to stay in the hospital for several months.
Action actors like Cheng Long, Jet Li, Zhen Zidan and Wu Jing, all of them are covered in scars.
Even Liu Shishi was injured while filming "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3" and "The Strange Hero Yizhimei", but it was not a serious problem.
Wei Yang complained and cried out in pain, but he didn't take the injury seriously. He was more concerned about whether the filming would be delayed tomorrow.
Today's scene hasn't been finished yet, the scenery is still there, and it will take at least another day to finish.
"The director asked you to rest for half a day. You are fine, but Wang Yang may not be able to hold on. It hurts a lot."
Liu Shishi advised that Wei Yang's injury was not serious and if he continued to shoot, Wang Yang should grit his teeth and continue no matter how much pain it was. After all, the boss didn't rest even when he was injured, so why should he rest?
The crew's words were as sharp as knives, but Boss Wei didn't care and no one dared to say anything. Wang Yang, an ordinary actor, did not receive the same treatment as him.
"Then I'll go see him later."
Wei Yang is still very considerate. If it really doesn't work out, he can shoot other scenes first.
Especially for Wei Yang, the person in charge of the crew, a slight delay in progress is not a big deal, but it would be troublesome if an actor was seriously injured.
"Why do you make me sound like a big devil?"
Wei Yang sighed. Liu Shishi put down the safflower oil and then rubbed the medicine on him with her hands. She rubbed Boss Wei until he cried out in pain before she relaxed her grip with a smile.
"What do you think? Apart from Director Kong and Teacher Chen, who in the entire crew is not afraid of you? I was a little scared when I saw you training Rouba the other day."
"I'm doing this for her own good. Some directors saw that she was from Blue Whale and were embarrassed to say harsh words to her, but it was up to me to do it."
"snort."
When Liu Shishi mentioned this, she couldn't help but increase her strength: "Are they afraid that she is from Blue Whale? I'm afraid she has other ideas."
Liu Shishi might not be as smart as Xiao Zhao, but that doesn't mean she's stupid. Although Rouba pretends to be a good boy, he always gets close to Wei Yang whenever he has time, which reveals some of his thoughts.
Rouba felt that it was not easy to get along with Wei Yang. It was not because Liu Shishi kept a close eye on Wei Yang, but because he kept a close eye on her.
"Don't slander me. Rouba and I are innocent."
Wei Yang was still very confident in his relationship with Rouba. Because of this, Liu Shishi was just a little jealous and occasionally threw a tantrum and gave warnings, otherwise she would have exploded long ago.

As the two were talking, Li Jiahang pushed the door open. When he saw Wei Yang lying naked on the bed with Liu Shishi half-kneeling and half-crouching on him (applying medicine), he covered his eyes and turned away.
"I didn't see anything."
"return."
Wei Yang called the man back in an unpleasant tone. Liu Shishi stood up with a red face and explained.
"I'm applying medicine to him, and it's inconvenient to stand."
Li Jiahang finally opened his eyes and saw what was going on. He breathed a sigh of relief, "I was wondering why the door wasn't closed? You scared me."
Wei Yang threw a pillow casually: "Stop talking nonsense, how is Wang Yang?"
"It's a minor problem. It won't affect tomorrow's filming."
"That'll do."
Knowing that everyone was fine, Wei Yang felt relieved. Liu Shishi got a bottle of water for Li Jiahang, who took it, thanked him, and then chattered to Wei Yang.
"He's much stronger than you. Apart from stumbling a little when walking, there's nothing wrong with him. He didn't even plan to go see a doctor because he was afraid that the crew would say he was making a fuss. You're just cherishing your life."
"nonsense."
Wei Yang rolled his eyes: "I have worked so hard to earn so much money, and I have such a beautiful girlfriend. If I don't cherish my life, it will be a pity to die...ah..."
Liu Shishi took back her pinching hand and said, "Don't talk nonsense. It's unlucky."
Li Jiahang chuckled in gloating mood, and Wei Yang glared at him unhappily.
"I've been busy filming these days so I didn't bother asking, how are you and your Shengsheng doing?"
"I confessed to her."
"What did she say?"
Liu Shishi asked excitedly first, Wei Yang was helpless, how could you, a melon-eating lover, be as calm as a chrysanthemum in the future.
Li Jiahang scratched his head. She didn't say much. It was the same as before.
Wei Yang and Liu Shishi looked at each other, both a little confused. Most people, after confessing their love, would either take a step forward or take a step back. What was going on here?
"How did you confess?"
"I told her, 'Yanzi, I like you very much, but I don't have any other intentions. Let's just focus on filming and be good friends.'"
Wei Yang: “…”
Liu Shishi: “…”
Wei Yang looked at Liu Shishi: "Is this how you taught my brother? You are giving yourself a good guy card."
Liu Shishi decisively passed the buck: "I was helping him analyze the psychology of girls, telling them that girls are generally more reserved, and not to be anxious, and not to embarrass them. I never thought he would be like this. Besides, he's your brother, why didn't you teach him?"
As she was talking, she suddenly realized that Li Jiahang was good at dating before. She had heard him break up two or three times. Why was he acting like a pure and innocent virgin now? Could it be that he was deliberately playing the victim in front of them to gain sympathy? Liu Shishi fell into deep thought. She had felt something was wrong before.
Whenever he was heartbroken, he would go out drinking with Wei Yang. From time to time, he would drag Wei Yang to play games, go out, talk, etc. During filming, he would play and make love with Wei Yang every day. Normal brothers are not so clingy...
Li Jiahang, who was feeling depressed about his unhappy love life, suddenly felt that Liu Liu Shishi was staring at him, her eyes full of vigilance, precautions, and a hint of excitement.
Li Jiahang: “???”
