The female student candidate did not change, it was still Zhang Zifeng.
Because this role is the biggest reversal in the whole movie, we need to find a harmless girl who is young, well-behaved, and has enough acting skills. Zhang Zifeng is a very suitable candidate.
However, since Wei Yang is the male lead, he is no longer a genius boy. His age is raised by several years and he becomes a police academy graduate with flawed personality.
Because he spoke frankly during the graduation interview, he was disliked by major companies and became unemployed after graduation.
So I came to see my cousin Tang Ren with the purpose of half traveling to relax and half looking for a job.
Under such circumstances, the so-called ambiguous relationship between the boy and the girl in the original version seemed far-fetched, so it was changed to the interaction between the handsome brother and the quirky little sister.
The male protagonist's emotional line also deviated, changing from a female student to the female landlord A Xiang.
To be more precise, the male protagonist has no emotional line. His mind is on solving the case. He cares for and loves the female students, and is flirted with Ah Xiang throughout the whole process.
The order is that Tang Ren has a crush on A Xiang. A Xiang is a face control and has a good impression of the handsome younger brother of the male protagonist. She flirts with him in various ways, making Tang Ren jealous.
But until the end of the movie, neither Tang Ren nor the male protagonist was with Ah Xiang, which was a stage-by-stage ending.
Whether the character of A Xiang will appear in the future depends on the character's popularity and the direction of the plot.
The character of Ah Xiang is set to be a young woman in her 30s, who is pretty, charming and has a good figure.
Tong Yaya actually performed quite well in the original version, and Wei Yang even thought about asking her to play the role, but I don’t know if it was because Director Chen was afraid that Boss Wei would become a thief, but in the end he didn’t agree.
It's not surprising to Boss Wei. The people who hate scumbags the most in the world are not necessarily women, especially when there is no emotional entanglement.
Because scumbags are often charming and can win the favor of many women, while ordinary men, even if they are honest and hardworking, are sometimes considered boring and hopeless.
Ordinary men don’t hate scumbags the most. The direct competition between the two sides is not that great. There is more envy and contempt.
The one who hates scumbags the most must be scumbags, because the hatred between colleagues is naked.
There are so many beauties, what should I do if you do that to me! ?
Director Chen judges others by his own standards and can't help but think of some restricted scenes. In this situation, he even lets his girlfriend get close to Wei Yang. How bold of a person must he be to do this?
Wei Yang didn't care. It wasn't necessary for Tong Yaya to play this role. There were too many people who could play the role.
There are suitable ones within Blue Whale and Coral Entertainment, but there are some scheduling conflicts. Fat Fan has expressed her willingness to help and the conditions are suitable, but Boss Wei really doesn't dare to let her act anymore.
Liu Shishi and Zhao Liying are about to become popular in "Time Travelers". If they are asked to star in three movies in a row, Wei Yang is really afraid that they will use their big moves.
So I spread the news out, and many people responded to the invitation. After much deliberation, I chose Gao Yuanyuan.
Her age, appearance and temperament fit the role, and she is famous enough. Not to mention that Wei Yang remembers that her masterpiece "Let's Get Married" will be broadcast soon. By then, her fame will be further enhanced, and the movie will also benefit from it.
Another reason is that Blue Whale has recently had in-depth cooperation with Gao Yuanyuan.
She is the heroine of "Beijing Loves Seattle". Everyone feels good about her. Now that she has a role, she also prefers a second collaboration.
At the same time, the two films can also form a certain degree of echo and interaction, which may also benefit the box office.
"Boss Wei, please take good care of me this time."
"It should be. I've always wanted to work with Teacher Gao, and this time I finally got my wish."
"Calling me Teacher Gao is too polite. Just call me Yuanyuan."
"Then I'll take a big sip. Come, Yuanyuan, I'll toast you a glass and wish you a pleasant cooperation."
“…”
Wei Yang and Gao Yuanyuan had a very pleasant conversation. In fact, Gao was a popular actress who had sent friendly signals to Wei Yang very early on.
As early as when "My Love from the Star" was popular, Gao Yuanyuan was particularly fond of watching this drama. She said a lot of good things about it on social media and in interviews at the time, and later she also asked for cooperation many times half-seriously and half-falsely.
The two sides contacted each other many times, and the one they almost reached an agreement on was "Famous", and later "Time Raiders" was also included in the final list.
In the small circle of Blue Whale senior management, Gao Xi was even called the "super substitute".
When "Beijing Loves Seattle" was being prepared, Fan Xiaopang was the first choice for quite a while. Later, for various reasons, Fan did not participate, and Gao Yuanyuan, the substitute, finally took over.
The same was true this time. When Fan Xiaopang was in trouble and the schedule of Blue Whale's main players conflicted, Gao once again successfully served as a substitute with his comprehensive advantages.
Wei Yang and Gao Yuanyuan had a good chat, but they didn't ignore others either, and everyone chatted with each other.
On the contrary, other people didn't dare to disturb him and Gao Yuanyuan's chat. The producer sitting next to him even found an opportunity to switch seats with Gao.
This incident made Boss Wei somewhat embarrassed and angry.
What does that mean?! He did not deny that he was more willing to care about the work and life of lesbians, but the premise was that they were single and did not object.
No matter how beautiful Gao Yuanyuan is, she is already in a relationship and is discussing marriage with her boyfriend, Mark Chao.
If we put them together at this time, what is the difference between him and Wang Dazhi who had an affair with Dong Bailian?
Wei Yang's morals and integrity would not allow him to do such a thing! After taking a look at the self-righteous producer, Boss Wei gave him a small account.
Unexpectedly, Gao Yuanyuan calmly changed seats, continued to toast, and asked Boss Wei questions sincerely.
"Mr. Wei, I made a supplementary biography for Ah Xiang earlier. Could you give me some advice?"
Looking at Gao Yuanyuan's serious face and the faint floral and fruity scent of perfume surrounding his nose, Wei Yang unconsciously leaned towards that side.
…
Since "Detective Chinatown 3" was filmed in Thailand, there was no opening ceremony or press conference and it was very low-key in the early stages.
But no matter how low-key Wei Yang is, he can't help but be so popular. He is filming his third new movie abroad, so how could he not attract attention?
Thanks to the efforts of the media, a part of the main creative list was also dug out, and the lineup is still quite luxurious.
Wei Yang, Wang Baoqiang (Tang Ren), Gao Yuanyuan (female landlord A Xiang), Zhang Zifeng (female student Sinuo), Pan Yueming (female student's adoptive father), Tian Yu (Huang Landeng), Xiao Yang (Kuntai), Xiao Shenyang (kidnapper leader), Yuan Hong (policeman insider)…
In addition, there are actually several guest stars, such as the police interviewer, Tang Ren’s wife, coffee shop clerk and other roles, all of whom are well-known comedians or artists close to Blue Whale.
But these crews are not completely sure, and their roles are few, so the media cannot dig it out.
Even so, the lineup that has been revealed is surprising enough.
Especially Wei, Wang and Gao, all three are considered first-line actors and have achieved certain achievements in the film industry. Their first collaboration is highly anticipated.

However, many of Wei Yang's fans are more concerned about whether Wei Yang will continue to film TV series in the future.
This made Wei Yang a little amused and helpless. Other people's fans were eager for the real person to enter the film industry, but his own fans kept pushing him back. It was ridiculous.
But then again, Wei Yang could actually understand it to some extent.
After so many years of debut, Wei Yang has only filmed one that was released. Although the results are good, they are still far behind his TV dramas.
To put it bluntly, most of his fans are drama fans, not movie fans.
Although he is a junior in the film industry, he is almost invincible in the field of TV dramas and can be called the king of the small screen.
It is certainly possible for Wei Yang to climb higher in the film industry, but compared to the warriors in the film industry struggling to challenge the dragon, fans prefer to watch Wei Yang as a big devil who sweeps away everything on the small screen, which is simply awesome.
Moreover, a TV series is shot in dozens of episodes, while a movie is only two hours long. Most ordinary audiences care more about the large quantity and the fullness.
As for movie stars being more popular than TV drama stars...
This formula makes sense for other people, but applying it to Wei Yang, a tycoon with a net worth of billions, is just asking for humiliation.
Not to mention TV dramas, even if Boss Wei was making pornographic films, few movie stars would dare to get angry in front of him.
Boss Wei did not hide it and replied to a fan on Weibo, saying that he would not give up filming TV series, but the specific subject matter would depend on the script.
It's not that he doesn't have scripts in his hands. He has scripts of all kinds, and even some super-powerful ones, such as Nirvana in Fire.
Wei Yang had held the copyright of this drama a long time ago. He wanted to shoot it at one point, but gave up and shot "Joy of Life" instead.
Later, Noon Sunshine became interested in the original novel and, knowing that the copyright belonged to Wei Yang, wanted to buy it for production. However, Wei Yang hesitated again and again and was reluctant to give it to him.
For Wei Yang, this drama must be filmed, but whether he will act in it is a question.
The drama "Nirvana in Fire" is very popular and can even be said to be a representative work of costume dramas.
It has been said before that Zhao Liying's retirement drama "Knowing" has a very strong long-tail effect and has been ranked among the top in terms of online playback volume for many years.
But there are two costume dramas before it, one is the pinnacle of palace fighting "The Legend of Zhen Huan", and the other is "Nirvana in Fire".
Later, "Joy of Life" was added, and they were known as the four long-tail costume dramas. It was one of the few costume dramas in the previous life that could compete with the popular new dramas all year round.
Among them, "Joy of Life" has only been around for a short time, and its sequel has been gaining popularity from time to time, so it is relatively reluctant to be ranked among them.
The other three are more legitimate and are recognized as the top three. The longer they are broadcast, the more valuable they are.
At this stage, Wei Yang has released "Joy of Life" in advance. Although I don’t know what the long-tail effect will be, it should be good.
Together with "My Love from the Star", "Eastern Palace" and "Chinese Paladin 3", it can barely provide for my retirement.
But who would complain about having too many retirement dramas?
If he really plays "Nirvana in Fire", I can't say how much more he will do, but at least within twenty years, Boss Wei should not be forgotten by the public. For an artist, this is a great temptation.
However, although the drama "Nirvana in Fire" is considered a classic, it has too many flaws.
I'm not trying to criticize Wei Yang, but this female author's writing about political intrigues is indeed more... dreamy.
Judging from the details later dug up by netizens and the cheats the author gave to the male protagonist Mei Changsu, it would be a heinous crime if the emperor didn't kneel down and call him dad.
But this is normal. Which online novel doesn't have cheats? In "Joy of Life", Fan Xian has several fathers? In "Snow Sword", the whole world plays with the male protagonist. These cheats are not much worse than those in "Nirvana in Fire". This is essentially a drama about power struggles.
However, no matter how cool it is, some major flaws still need to be corrected, such as "70,000 elite troops were killed", which simply rubs the IQ of history fans.
After doing such a thing, you would not be able to keep your throne even if you tied up Li Shimin and Zhu Yuanzhang together.
Wei Yang thought that since the theme of the story was revenge, he had to kill people, so changing the number from 70,000 to 7,000 was barely acceptable. There were also some other flaws that needed to be modified.
It’s okay to cheat, but don’t overdo it, otherwise it will feel like you’re taking off your pants to fart.
There are too few dramas suitable for Wei Yang to play the leading male role. If the adaptation of "Nirvana in Fire" is good, Wei Yang thinks that he can take over Lao Hu's retirement drama. With an extra layer of Mei Changsu filter, he will be less criticized...
