In the 1990s, the release of the Gu Qiu Zai series can be described as a "gu zai style" in the country, and then a series of movies have been sought after by the generation of young people at that time.
Of course, there are also netizens who have influenced many people in this type of movie, but it has to be said that heavy righteousness, heavy brotherhood, and responsibility are rendered very well in this film.
Unconsciously, it has been 25 years since the first film was released, so do you remember who those people were at that time? "Chen Haonan" Zheng Yijian, "Pheasant" Chen Xiaochun, "Big Heaven Ii" Xie Tianhua, "Foreskin" Lin Xiaofeng, etc., have all become the memories of a generation.
But even after 25 years, there are some things you still don't know, that is, Chen Haonan in the film, in fact, the preferred star is not Zheng Yijian.
Many viewers know that "Ancient Puzzle Boy" is a classic story adapted from the three-day magazine refining the color manga of the same name, so there is a comic prototype. But at that time, it was not Zheng Yijian who was in line with the comic characters, but Andy Lau.
And you know, at that time, Andy Lau was already famous, and Zheng Yijian did not have such a high audience popularity as today, so at that time, the crew was very optimistic about Andy Lau and also went to invite.
However, because Andy Lau already had a "knife boy" before and a "gambler" after him, Andy Lau did not want to play this type of role, and in order to take care of his image at that time, he declined. Even the crew also found He Jiajin, Jin Chengwu and others after that, but in the end, no one was willing to take the role because of the image problem, which found Zheng Yijian.
But Zheng Yijian has always had the dream of being a singer, and because singers are more popular than actors at that time, Zheng Yijian also refused after seeing this type of role.
But in the end, because of Wang Jing, he still agreed. Because Zheng Yijian promised Wang Jing to star in enough 6 works, at that time, he had already starred in five works: "Chasing Boys", "Super School Overlord", "New Hero Nature", "Boys When Entering the Bottle", and "The Legend of the Mermaid", and there was still one, so he took over this play.
It is also because of Wang Jing, which makes Zheng Yijian shine in "Ancient Puzzle Boy", and even when seeing "Chen Haonan", many viewers once thought that Zheng Yijian himself was the original body of Chen Haonan, remembering that when I and my friends once saw Zheng Yijian, I only knew that he was "Chen Haonan", and I did not expect that it was only his character name.
However, come to think of it, Andy Lau does not take this play is indeed a wise move, after all, Andy Lau at that time has reached a certain height, there is no need for "Ancient Puzzle Boy" to be held high again, and because of the conflict of its image, it is inevitable that there will be some losses.
And Zheng Yijian is different, at that time he had long hair, bent on thinking of singers, but his fame did not rise, if it were not for Wang Jing pulling him, it is estimated that it would be difficult to have such a high audience now!
Who do you think is more suitable to play Chen Haonan!
