Preface
Back then, the drama was a big hit, and most of the leading actors were acting for the first time, and now they are all classics. The TV series that has always accompanied us in our childhood, the crew that looks lively and laughing, but few people know the sadness behind it. The behind-the-scenes story is no less exciting than the feature film, so let's take a look.
Almost got a different corner
In 1997, Qiong Yao felt some trouble when reviewing the recorded episodes of "Huanzhu Gege". She was not very satisfied with Ruby Lin's performance, thinking that although Ruby Lin had a delicate appearance, she seemed incapable of speaking lines. Qiong Yao did not have a good impression of Ruby Lin before, she once watched Ruby Lin's performance in a fashion drama in 1997, was disappointed in her acting skills, and even thought that she was not suitable for the heroine.
At that time, Qiong Yao produced two plays at the same time, "There Are Tears in the Sky" and "Huanzhu Gege". "Huanzhu Gege" was filmed by Sun Shupei in the mainland, and Qiong Yao faced the problem of how to make Ruby Lin better play the heroine "Ziwei".
Considering Ruby Lin's youth and the previous change of actors, Qiong Yao finally decided to use dubbing to solve Ruby Lin's performance problems, rather than changing actors. This decision is fraught with risks for Qiong Yao, as it is an unconventional practice. However, she was determined to try this method to see if she could achieve better results in the episode.
In the end, the decision was a success. Despite the risks, "Huanzhu Gege" was a great success among audiences, and Ruby Lin's "Ziwei" also became one of the classic characters. The success of this decision was compared with the risk, which rewarded Qiong Yao's courage and persistence. On the other hand, "Tears in the Sky" has not received the same attention, demonstrating the challenges that require flexibility and determination in the production of TV dramas.
Drink fecal water
At the scene of the filming, the actor of the role of Little Swallow encountered a very challenging scene. The plot requires her to help push a carriage stuck in the mud in the rain, and in the process, the horse suddenly runs, causing her to fall and her face covered in mud. In pursuit of the authenticity of the scene, the director instructed her not only to smear mud on her face, but also to imitate the appearance of spitting out mud. Shockingly, the mud not only contained sludge, but also horse manure.
In the face of such an extreme request, Xiaoyanzi seemed very hesitant, and her face became very pale for a while. At this moment, the actor who played the role of Erkang saw her predicament and secretly gave her an idea: before the actual shooting, she could secretly take a sip of mineral water and pretend to spit out muddy water. However, the director was keenly aware of this cunning little action.
In a helpless situation, Xiaoyanzi had to follow the director's instructions. She knows that as an actor, she must obey the director's arrangement, especially when she was able to get this role thanks to the director's strong support. Her professionalism and dedication to her role undoubtedly reflect the film industry's relentless pursuit of authenticity and artistry.
Toss a coin to decide whether to come out or not
When Zhou Jie received the invitation to appear in the Huanzhu crew, his heart fluctuated. Although he was excited about playing the role of Erkang, he was also hesitant. He lacks confidence in his ability to handle crying scenes, after all, one of the characteristics of Qiong Yao drama is the high requirements for actors in crying scenes, especially the expression when crying is sincere and attractive.
Faced with such a challenge, Zhou Jie decided to make a decision in an unusual way – by flipping a coin. He left this important choice to fate. When the coin flipped through the air and finally settled, the result meant that he would accept the challenge and star as Erkang.
This decision turned out to be wise. Although initially uneasy about the performance of the crying scene, Zhou Jie showed an unexpected talent during the filming. His emotional expression is rich and his expression is just right, which not only meets the needs of the plot, but also wins the recognition of the audience.
In addition, Zhou Jie also felt fortunate that "Huanzhu Gege" is a comedy, and the proportion of crying scenes is not large. Such a plot structure relieves him of pressure to a certain extent. He not only successfully completed the performance of the crying scene, but also created many resonant memes that were deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
In the end, Zhou Jie's role as Er Kang in "Huanzhu Gege" is not only a highlight of his acting career, but also one of the classic roles. Through this experience, he proved his ability to perform in a variety of ways, especially the courage and determination he showed in overcoming his self-doubt.
More than 4 million yuan to present a butterfly dance
When Aunt Qiong Yao was filming "Huanzhu Gege", she was extremely strict with every detail, especially in the production of a butterfly dance scene. In order to achieve a more realistic effect, she specially hired a team of professionals.
The team began by demonstrating their virtuosity by crafting the shape of a butterfly in plastic film. Not only do they paint the butterflies with brilliant colors, but they also delicately depict delicate patterns. The whole production process, whether it is form or color, pays attention to the pursuit of the ultimate artistic expression.
In order to make the butterflies more vivid in the performance, this professional team cleverly placed small electric motors and cameras on the butterflies. Through clever programming, these butterflies are able to dance to the music vividly. The exquisite application of this technology adds a lot to the whole stage effect.
The lighting and sound effects on the stage work perfectly with the dancing of these butterflies, creating a mysterious and lively atmosphere. Butterflies dance like real creatures under the illumination, presenting a visual and auditory feast for the audience. This unique performance effect is impressive.
However, the cost of this butterfly dance is quite huge, as high as 1.8 million Taiwan dollars, equivalent to more than 4 million yuan. This is a staggering figure, especially considering that the production cost is more than 30,000 yuan per second. This fully demonstrates Aunt Qiong Yao's pursuit of art and strict requirements for details.
Despite the high cost, the performance of the butterfly dance is undoubtedly breathtaking. Especially in the scene where butterflies and Xiangfei dance together, the realistic dancing not only enhances the vividness of the whole scene, but also injects more realism into the plot. This unique stage design left a deep and memorable impression on the audience.
Personal opinion
The behind-the-scenes story of "Huanzhu Gege" profoundly reveals the bitterness and challenges in the production of TV dramas. From Qiong Yao's hesitation to Ruby Lin's performance, to the hardships of Xiaoyanzi's cosplayer, to Zhou Jie's choice to accept the role, these stories not only make us re-examine this classic series, but also make us feel the professionalism and artistic pursuit of the people and actors behind the scenes. In particular, the high-cost production of the butterfly dance scene reflects the production team's ultimate pursuit of art and detail. "Hoan Zhu Gege" is not only a deeply rooted TV series, but also a story about dreams, perseverance and creativity, which encourages us to maintain enthusiasm and courage in the face of difficulties and challenges, and strive for excellence.
