"Now I know why Wang Yueheng agreed to star in this TV series."
"His personality and actions are exactly like those of the chivalrous Yang Zhiguo in the book—passionately patriotic yet low-key and indifferent to fame and fortune..."
"Most importantly, the perfect ending for Yang Zhiguo and Xiaolongnu in the book is practically tailor-made for him and Mo Zixue!"
Zhang Jingzhong, the bearded director who seemed to have been inspired by Jackie Chan, slammed his fist on the table in sudden realization.
No wonder Wang Yueheng has so many new dramas to film.
It was precisely at this time that he agreed to star in "The Return of the Condor Heroes," adapted from Mr. Cha Yong's original work.
Besides being a loyal fan of Cha Yong's books.
He probably also had the idea of experiencing a martial arts couple's adventures with his girlfriend Mo Zixue in this drama.
Furthermore, the fact that Mr. Cha Yong himself hosted a banquet for the singer further moved her.
As the two chatted, neither of them noticed the expression on Old Master Cha Yong's face.
...
"Jianghu Laughter"
"A feud is settled."
"A battle of wits"
"A smile can hide a knife..."
In another round of singing by Wang Yueheng.
The martial arts master held a teacup on the table, his expression complex, with a hint of tears in his eyes.
In a previous interview.
Cha Yong once frankly admitted that the theme of his work "The Return of the Condor Heroes" can be summed up in one word: "love".
Unwavering loyalty, unconventional behavior, obsessive entanglement and resentment, self-sacrifice, regret and remorse...
And this is the ultimate expression of "emotion".
It is deeply connected to the emotional turmoil he experienced during the creation of this work.
The story features the great swordsman Yang Zhiguo having his wrists severed and suffering from the deadly poison of the Heartless Grass, as well as the tragic love story of the Daoist nun Li Mochou...
All of this reveals the "emotional disability" left in Cha Yong's heart by the breakdown of his first marriage.
This more or less reflects the pain of his first unforgettable romantic experience of "betrayal".
In the world of martial arts, a smile can conceal a dagger.
Isn't the love, hate, and grudges in real life just like this?
"Laughter in the Mortal World"
Laughing at loneliness
"Too ambitious"
"We can't get there..."
Looking up at Wang Yueheng singing, Cha Yong couldn't help but recall his second marriage.
The couple were like comrades-in-arms and partners, fighting together and sharing joys and sorrows.
In his heart, his second wife was like Xiaolongnu to Yang Zhiguo for raising and teaching him in the Ancient Tomb.
To help him achieve career success and a stable life.
However, as Cha Yong himself became increasingly engrossed in the "world of martial arts" and lost himself in his work, and as he became unable to control himself after achieving success and fame.
He gradually fell in love with other women, causing a rift in their relationship.
As he wrote in the book, Yang Zhiguo and Xiaolongnu were separated many times due to external pressure and misunderstandings.
Especially the plot setting of "Little Dragon Girl disappearing for sixteen years".
This is the early stage when the relationship with his wife begins to subtly change and they gradually drift apart.
However, Cha Yong himself failed to turn back and salvage the relationship in time like Yang Zhiguo did, and ultimately took the initiative to let go and leave.
At this moment, he is more like Guo Fu, the character he created in his own writing, who secretly loves Yang Daxia but cannot have him.
Turning around, I found myself caught in another vortex of confusion and emotion...
Unable to find love
"Can't let go"
Unforgettable
"You're so kind..."
"Snap~"
When Cha Yong first read these lyrics, he didn't feel much.
However, it wasn't until Wang Yueheng sang these lyrics with genuine emotion on stage that it became clear what was happening.
Cha Yong's right hand, which was gently stroking the teacup, suddenly trembled, spilling a little tea.
While feeling the warmth of the tea between my fingers.
It seemed as if the tears of an old friend were being gently touched.
A sudden wave of self-reproach washed over me for not appreciating what I had.
After he let go and left.
His second wife never remarried and died alone, passing away before him.
It's as if he's been stuck at the Cliff of Heartbreak for sixteen years, never to see his heroine descend from the heavens again.
If this story were rewritten based on one's own life experiences...
Perhaps the Little Dragon Girl, driven by love turned to hate, will become the second Li Mochou of the Ancient Tomb Sect...
