Who would have thought that the director only asked Zhang Shi to play a eunuch, but directly evolved himself into the Peking Opera textbook. It is no exaggeration to say that the biggest highlight of the TV series version of "Myth" is Zhao Gao, played by Zhang Shi.
In contrast, Yi Xiaochuan, played by Hu Ge, is not so likable.
Half-hearted, inflammatory, slippery tongue, Jackie Chan's version of Meng Yi's Iron Man tenderness, simply incomparable.
That is to say, if it were not for Hu Ge playing Yi Xiaochuan, then this role would definitely be scolded to the bone. And the relationship between the male and female protagonists in the play is not as touching as the feelings with Lu Su. Such a slotted TV series. What's the story behind it?
Today, let's talk about the myth of 2010. Speaking of mythology, the most impressive thing is the movie version, not to mention the plot and acting skills, just Kim Hee-sun's dance on the edge of the cliff has raised the quality of the movie version to more than one level.
Please note that in 2008, director Jiang Jiajun received an invitation from Myth.
At first, he was reluctant to challenge the classics, but after all, he was instructed to guide him, and there was absolutely no room for refusal. What should I do? Just when the director was overwhelmed, he thought of the stupidest, but also the wisest way. Only to see that he not only brought Jackie Chan as the director of the system, but also invited the director of the film version, Tang Jili, as the artistic director of the crew. In order to ensure the quality of the script, Jiang Jiajun even found a screenwriter of the film version, the core lineup was complete, and quickly handed over the script to the director. This time, the selection of the protagonist has become a big problem. After all, no matter how to find the male protagonist, there is no more popular voice than a Jackie Chan. Moreover, the protagonist Yi Xiaochuan is cynical in modern times. After traveling to ancient times and becoming a general of Meng Yi, he was somewhat mature and stable, and the difficulty of performing was no less than that of one person playing two roles.
I thought that the male protagonist was difficult to find, but in fact, the female princess was the soul of the play. You know, when Jackie Chan congratulated the movie version, he spent a lot of effort. He asked the actors who played Yu Shu not only to have red lips and white teeth, but also to have the temperament of a princess and a dignified demeanor. I am afraid that only Kim Hee-sun can meet these harsh conditions.
The string behind Hu Ge's role as a little boy that everyone shouted and beat was actually inseparable from Jackie Chan's help. At that time, Hu Ge had just escaped from a car accident, but he was able to continue filming and was not afraid of danger. Such behavior not only touched the hearts of the audience, but also attracted Jackie Chan. In 2008, when the TV series Myth chose the protagonist, Jackie Chan first thought of Hu Ge, because he felt that everything Hu Ge experienced was a myth in itself. Coupled with the Xianjian series starring Hu Ge, it is still regarded as a classic by the audience.
Jackie Chan, an actor who has both acting skills and audience popularity, how can he be willing to let go? In order to express his gratitude, Jackie Chan even gave Hu Ge the armor he wore in the movie for encouragement. With such a sentiment, it is no wonder that Hu Ge works so hard when acting in mythology, not only in martial arts dramas, but also in the face of real tigers. Family members who have watched the TV series know that there is Yi Xiaochuan's single tiger scene in the play, and the director decided to give up adding special effects in order to produce more realistic effects. In its place was a real tiger. It is estimated that Hu Ge is also the first time to see such a scene. Although he was already trembling with fear, he decided to do it himself. At that time, Hu Ge's body was still in a critical state, so many staff members advised him to find a stand-in, but Hu Ge did not want to believe that in his view, the substitute actor and the actor themselves were equal.
He would be afraid to see a real tiger, wouldn't the stuntman be afraid? The staff had to give up after listening. When the actual shooting, Hu Ge understood what regret was. Although he had done his homework before the shooting, Hu Ge still did not dare to back down in the face of the true king of all beasts. Turning his head, Hu Ge found that there was no staff member around him, only a beast trainer standing beside him. In order not to waste time, Hu Ge could only make a movie hard. After the play, many staff members came to mourn, but Hu Ge pretended to be relaxed and said, Ah, nothing. Bai Bing, who played Princess Yushu on the side, said mercilessly after listening to it, and she didn't know whose legs were trembling as soon as she came to the stage. The staff laughed after hearing it, and you may not believe it when you say it. Jin Xishan dances on the spiritual stage of the world, in fact, the dancer is not the actor himself at all, but Wang Xiaomeng in rural love.
Coincidentally, Bai Bing also encountered this problem when playing Princess Yushu. Although it seemed reasonable that an actor could not dance, at that time, Variety had just debuted in mythology, which was his first female lead. If the director keeps his eyes open, maybe I'll find him a duo. But the director is a man who can't tolerate sand in his eyes. Hu Ge, who plays Yi Xiaochuan, is so tall that he personally went on stage to shoot with the tiger.
Can Bai Bing still find a stand-in for a dance? In order to achieve a more realistic effect, Bai Bing can only practice with the dance teacher every day. Fortunately, the hard work paid off.
Although the ice ink fruit of the white ice is not as stunning and decisive as Jin Xishan in terms of visual effects, it is still eye-catching. Even Jackie Chan's eldest brother was very satisfied after watching the dance and praised it. After all, Bai Bing personally brought the crew.
At that time, when the mythological crew selected the female protagonist, they not only hoped that the male protagonist was a newcomer, but also required the female protagonist to have the image of Jiumei. Such harsh requirements make many actresses stop moving forward. Once, Jackie Chan participated in a variety show, and just chatted with the host, the lights in the room suddenly dimmed. As the mythological music played, a woman dressed in white walked toward her. She has a dignified appearance and outstanding temperament. She was like a fairy who didn't eat fireworks. In a trance, Jackie Chan seemed to see the dancing Princess Yushu a thousand years ago through the woman in front of him. After the music stopped, Jackie Chan's face was full of surprise, and he couldn't believe that he was really like eating a surprise meal. And this woman in white is Bai Bing. It turned out that after the news that the mythical crew had been unable to find the heroine, the host resolutely helped out, which was also the reason for arranging the meeting. Jackie Chan naturally knew the show and brought Bai Bing back to the crew. Have you seen mythological TV series?
