Chapter 672 Preparing for the filming of the Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty

The running man craze has not yet faded, and the Young Marshal Studio has made a big noise again, intending to spend 10 billion to produce a large-scale martial arts drama "The Legend of Double Dragon of the Tang Dynasty".

10 billion, many people couldn't help but gasp when they heard this number. This number is difficult for them to reach after ten lifetimes of struggle. It can be seen that Lin Tianbao, a young man, has made a lot of money these years.

Indeed, Lin Tianbao has made a lot of money these years, otherwise how would he have the money to build a new company and film and television city?
Since Lin Tianbao is not short of money and has ratings appeal, why doesn't he spend a lot of money to create a large-scale martial arts drama that does not leave regrets?

In Blue Star, "The Legend of the Double Dragon of the Tang Dynasty" is a martial arts novel serialized by the seventh young master of the Lin family, which is currently serialized to more than 200 million words, which is only two-fifths of the full text.

In fact, "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" is Huang Yi's masterpiece. The full text has 63 volumes and more than 500 million words, including military affairs, history, astronomy, medical skills, science, religion, mysteries of the universe, art aesthetics, etc. China's thousands of years of cultural wisdom Therefore, Lin Tianbao wanted to shoot the original novel in Blue Star, and 10 billion is just a conservative figure.

After all, "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" involves many characters. In the first volume alone, dozens of characters are pulled out in just a few tens of thousands of words, including the protagonists Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, Yu Wenhuaji, Yang Guang, Shi Long, and Wei Zhen. Zhen, Fu Junmei, Song Shidao, Song Lu, Liu Jing...

In fact, apart from the two protagonists, "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" has many heavyweight characters, such as Ba Fenghan, Hou Xibai, Shi Feixuan, Wanwan, Shi Qingxuan, Shi Zhixuan, Song Que, Song Yuzhi, Li Xiuning, Li Shimin, etc.

Therefore, the Shaoshuai Studio did not invest 10 billion in one shot for "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty", but invested in the shooting in batches. Come out and test the waters to see how the market reacts?If the market responds well, there will be a second season, a third season, a fourth season...

On the contrary, it will be the same as "The Tale of Longevity of the Tang Dynasty" directed by Wang Jing in the original world. The market response is not good, and the audience throws rotten eggs. Let it go.

Why is Lin Tianbao so impressed with "The Tale of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty: The Secret of Longevity"?All because of resentment, oh resentment, Houhou appeared on the stage as a "killer in black", completely destroying the image of the original work.

Without comparison, there is no damage value. Before "The Tale of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty: The Secret of Longevity" came out, fans of Ssangyong thought that the TVB version of "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" ruined the original work, merging characters, changing the plot randomly, and then look at Wang Jing The TVB version of "The Tale of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty: The Tale of Longevity" directed by the director is a classic. At least in the selection of several leading actors and heavyweight supporting roles, TVB has spent a lot of thought and will not let people read the original work. The audience was too picky. Lin Feng played Kou Zhong, Wu Zhuoxi played Xu Ziling, Yang Yi played Li Xiuning, Tang Ning played Shi Feixuan, Wu Dingxin played Wanwan, Li Qian played Song Yuzhi, Li Zixiong played Yu Wenhua and Weng Hong played Lin Tianbao was deeply impressed by the screen images of Zhu Yuyan and Shi Zhixuan played by Zeng Weiquan.

On the other hand, Kou Zhong played by Chen Guokun and Xu Ziling played by Fang Lishen, Lin Tianbao felt awkward no matter how he looked at it. Chen Guokun left a deep impression on Lin Tianbao as "Legend of Bruce Lee", and Fong Lishen left a deep impression on Lin Tianbao as "100% feeling ", Lin Tianbao didn't want to complain about how ugly the appearance of the two of them in "The Legend of Double Dragon of the Tang Dynasty: The Secret of Longevity".

With the lessons learned from the failure of Wang Jing's "The Tale of Two Dragons of the Tang Dynasty: The Tale of Longevity", Lin Tianbao knows that some money cannot be saved, especially casting is the most important thing, and the actors' remuneration and fame are secondary Yes, whether it is suitable for the role is the most important thing, and the costumes and styling can not be spared, no matter how gorgeous it is, so that the audience has nothing to say about the cast and costumes of the Blue Star version of "The Legend of Double Dragon of the Tang Dynasty".

Preparing to shoot "The First Season of Double Dragon of the Tang Dynasty" is not a matter of a day or two. First of all, we need to set up the crew, producer, director, assistant director, casting director, dubbing director, screenwriter, photography, editing, soundtrack, art design, Costume design, modeling design, etc., are indispensable.

As for the actors?

"The Legend of Two Dragons of the Tang Dynasty", as a large-scale and majestic martial arts drama wholly-owned by the Young Marshal Studio, can be called an epic large-scale martial arts drama. Pick the rest and see if the partner company or studio has any suitable actors for the role?If not, then there will be a national public casting call.

In short, "The Legend of Double Dragon of the Tang Dynasty" is not an idol drama with the highest appearance, but a truly epic martial arts drama!

Therefore, the play must be a gathering of three generations of actors, old, middle-aged and young, and there is no shortage of big names to help out. I don't know who Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling will end up with?Will there be new lucky ones born in the play?
At present, everything is unknown, but according to Lin Tianbao's analysis of the characters of the two protagonists, it seems that none of the male artists under the studio are suitable for the role of Kou Zhong, on the contrary, many of them are suitable for the role of Xu Ziling.

Of course, whether the studio's male artists can win Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling depends on the audition. Lin Tianbao is not the casting director, he is only responsible for the final role determination.

Just when the news that Young Marshal's Studio intends to invest 10 billion to shoot a large-scale martial arts drama "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" was in full swing on the Internet, the second episode of Running Man "Looking for Past Life Lovers" was broadcast as scheduled, and the ratings were higher than that of the first episode. It has reached a higher level, reaching 29.526%, and breaking 30% is just around the corner.

In order not to delay the wedding of Lin Tianbao and Yu Qingya, the [-]th episode of Running Man must be finished recording before the end of September. No, the running team set off again, going to Tianhai to record the sixth episode of "Love Through Time and Space".

Although there are no guests in this episode of the show, the show is full of highlights and suspense, keeping the audience's appetite.

With Lin Tianbao and others completing the recording of the sixth episode of Running Man, the crew of "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" has also been formed, and the casting is in full swing.

Time passed day by day, and the third episode of Running Man "Escape from Xiushan Island" was also broadcast on time under much anticipation. As expected, the ratings reached a new high. Unfortunately, it was only a short step away from breaking through the 30% mark.

With the ratings of the third episode of Running Man stuck at 29.992%, "The Legend of Double Dragon of the Tang Dynasty" has completed the preliminary casting and temporarily finalized some actors.

On this side, "The Legend of Double Dragon of the Tang Dynasty" has just finalized some actors, and on the other side, as the director, Long Zhezhe handed over the list of actors to Lin Tianbao, waiting for Lin Tianbao, the big boss, to make a final decision.
