Chapter 171 Casting for "The Legend of the Yang Family Generals"!

In a work, for readers, the death of a character can make them feel painful, and most of them are positive characters.

If a bad guy dies in a book, will anyone sigh for him?

I can only say that it is very rare.

Once the character Snape really turns evil, readers will not care about his life or death at all.

Even if he dies, readers will only shout that it is exciting!

But there are still some readers who always think that Snape's story is not that simple!

Because in the work "Harry Potter", whether it is Sirius or other characters, their stories are portrayed vividly and very carefully.

But so far, Snape's story is still relatively mysterious.

According to normal logic, there must be a complete story about Snape in the last part.

Many fans of Lao Zei's books believe that with Lao Zei's strength, he will definitely add a layer of sadness to Snape's story.

…

If Xiazhou fans are familiar with Laozei’s writing style because of his novels such as “Sword of Immortal” and “Zhu Xian”, then Jiuzhou fans are completely confused!

They are not familiar with this mysterious oriental author, and there is only one sentence in their minds:

[How dare this oriental author!! ]

One knife per book, and the importance of the characters is getting higher and higher!

This writing style is too rare in Jiuzhou’s bestsellers, but it has to be said that readers still can’t abandon “Harry Potter”!

From the perspective of sunk costs, they have read six books and have suffered for so long, it is impossible to give up halfway!

Only the last one is left.

And according to the plot of the sixth book, the seventh book will be the final battle between Harry and Voldemort!

Is Snape good or evil, and what will be the final outcome?

This strong sense of expectation and curiosity drives these authors. Even if they know that this “damn” oriental author will bring them pain, they will still wait to read!

"Only 49 days to wait!"

"I suggest that British authors learn from this! What is Eastern speed!"

On social media in British states, many slow-writing authors were pulled out to be flogged because of the popularity of Harry Potter!

"Look at the update speed of Eastern authors!"

"Look at you again!"

Not to mention others, even in Irene's social software, there are many similar messages.

But when I saw such messages, Irene could only smile bitterly.

Release a book in 49 days, on average, the number of words created every day is simply unimaginable and unattainable for them!

And according to the analysis in the forum, it is said that before the release of Harry Potter, this author's update speed was even faster!

"Look at the previous books of this Eastern author.

"I heard that Harry Potter is the first physical book of this Eastern author."

Irene murmured.

In fact, it is not just Irene. Many Harry Potter fans in Jiuzhou couldn't help but look for Lao Zei's previous books while waiting.

The most popular one is not the best-performing "Long Night", but "Zhu Xian"!

"Oh my God! ”

“This is Xiazhou’s online novel!”

Erin just read the 20th chapter of “Zhu Xian” and was immersed in the huge world of immortal heroes depicted in “Zhu Xian”!

Xiazhou’s online novels are well-known in Jiuzhou, and the author of “Harry Potter” is one of the best.

Like Erin, many Harry Potter fans in Jiuzhou are immersed in the world of Zhu Xian through word of mouth!

In the past, online novels were very popular abroad and were a unique cultural output.

There is a saying: “All otakus in the world are one family. ”

Analyzing from the perspective of previous life data, works with romance as the main theme are highly accepted abroad, followed by action, adventure, fantasy and fairy tales!

And "Zhu Xian" has all these points.

And many readers who have not read Xiazhou online novels must be curious about it when they first come into contact with Xiazhou online novels.

Why is this so? It is because in Xiazhou online novels, the protagonist grows from obscurity to a big man who can change the world. This process is too detailed, and the perspective is almost entirely focused on the protagonist, which makes readers feel extremely involved.

With the same three million words, the growth of Harry's strength in "Harry Potter" is only a part.

And the main line of the online novel is all about the growth of the protagonist's strength.

In addition, the unique Xiazhou culture of "Zhu Xian" will naturally have an impact on readers from other states. interest.

And the most crucial point is that this is a consumer desire and consumption type that is difficult to replicate in the Jiuzhou market.

Yingzhou and Hanzhou both have online novels, but as long as you take a look, you will know that all the books are the same.

Finally, in Jiuzhou's books, including Harry, they are all "good guys" and all the images are so perfect, but online novels are different.

In the online novel world, Jiuzhou readers can experience the "pleasure of breaking free from the shackles of human nature and morality" that local books cannot experience, feel the "class gap", and the beauty of strength.

This is not common in Jiuzhou's mainstream works.

But the result of being deeply involved in "Zhu Xian"...

Is there a second way?

When the terrifying guillotine in "Zhu Xian" fell from the sky, all the Jiuzhou readers who were originally smiling and excited went crazy!

This level of madness is even more terrifying than the collapse of Xiazhou readers at the beginning!

"Oh! NO!!"

"Biyao! Why!"

"Biyao is dead! Ward!"

"Isn't Biyao the heroine? In Xiazhou's novel, can the heroine die?!"

"Suddenly I feel that this oriental author in Harry Potter has a lot more kindness!"

Who the hell has seen such a scene among these Jiuzhou readers? !

In the Jiuzhou world, no best-selling book will write an important character like Biyao to death!

For a time, on the Yingzhou forum, the discussion about the oriental author "Cement Sealed Heart" even exceeded all local authors!

"Zhao Linger! Oh my god! Zhao Linger is going to die!"

"Maomao! He exchanged his own flesh for food! How could this happen!"

"I didn't sleep well last night. All I could think about was Bi Yao's death. This oriental author is really crazy.

At first, many readers thought that only Harry Potter had a knife.

But as time went by, they found that this oriental author...

Each book has a knife, and each knife is different!

One knife after another stabbed into the heart!

For a while, there were constant wails in the Kyushu Harry Potter fan community, and angry voices filled the Internet!

...

"Compared to Xiazhou readers, Kyushu readers are the most cautious."

"Don't reveal your vest. "

Lin Qiu, who was on his way to the "Yang Family Generals Training Camp", said silently.

Due to the education since childhood and the local situation in Xiazhou, the reader group is unlikely to do anything out of line.

But there are many "barbarians" in the world of Kyushu.

For example, the famous heart-breaking anime "Binchotan" in RB in the previous life, the original ending was that in a cold winter, Binchotan dreamed that her deceased grandmother came to pick her up. That night, it snowed heavily and covered all the sounds.

Later, because the underworld boss in reality visited the author and really "sent a razor blade", the author changed the current ending.

And when Sherlock Holmes died, it caused an uproar. Readers directly sent a large number of razor blades and protest letters to Conan Doyle's home.

Afterwards, they took to the streets, wearing black armbands to pay tribute to the dead, and they shouted "Holmes, resurrection! "!

Not only did it make Conan Doyle almost become an author who was "hated by everyone", it also almost ruined Conan Doyle's writing career, which caused a sensation.

This is the power of novels and words.

In addition, in 1996, when the broadcast of "Neon Genesis Evangelion" was coming to an end, the director received a large number of death threats from EVA fanatics.

There are many similar situations...

So Lin Qiu's unwillingness to reveal his vest must not be alarmist.

...

Within just two weeks of the release of "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince", the sales of Kyushu's single volume exceeded 50 million again!

Such a result made "Harry Potter" even appear on the front page of major domestic media, and it was the talk of the town for a while!

In addition to the upcoming "Your Lie in April", the momentum overwhelmed it for a while. Lin Qiu is waiting for the release of "The Truman Show"!

Lin Qiu is now in the final stage of casting for "The Legend of Yang Family Generals"!

In about a month, all the actors who participated in the "Yang Family Generals Training Camp" have stabilized.

At this time, the roles will basically be determined one after another.

In the next two months, these actors will still have to undergo strict training to ensure Lin Qiu's filming requirements.

Today is the casting day for the entire "Yang Family Generals".

In the Yang Family Generals Training Camp, many young actors are a little nervous.

During this period of time, courses such as equestrianism, body shaping, etc., were strictly completed by these young actors.

But they also know that the final role is not determined by how well you ride a horse, but by your acting skills.

What's the use of riding a horse if your acting skills are not up to standard?

"Let's get started. "

Lin Qiu and assistant director Han Lu sat in the audition room and said to Kaohsiung.

Kaohsiung nodded and immediately asked the waiting young actors to come for the audition to see if they had the temperament of the characters that Lin Qiu wanted.

In terms of character image, "The Romance of Yang Family Generals" does not have too strict requirements, which is different from the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" that Lin Qiu is planning in the future.

Whether it is the Romance of the Three Kingdoms in the previous life or the storybooks handed down in this world, there are some descriptions of appearance.

Therefore, when selecting actors, they must be relatively similar. If the gap is too big, it is easy to be criticized.

For example, Zhang Fei's "eight feet tall, leopard head and round eyes, swallow chin and tiger beard", if a pretty boy actor is selected, he will definitely be sprayed away!

……

"The Romance of Yang Family Generals" The original work of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" cannot actually be called a masterpiece because the characters are highly similar and stereotyped, which is far inferior to "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

But when it is presented in entertainment works, the characters will be adapted to make the seven characters very different.

It can leave a deeper impression on the audience and remove stereotypes.

If "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "Generals of the Yang Family" are the same type of works, it would be too superficial.

"Romance of the Three Kingdoms" tells the story of the struggle in troubled times, while "Generals of the Yang Family" tells the story of the ambition of the family and the country. From the perspective of moving the audience, the latter must be more profound.

The first is the audition for literary drama, and the second is the action drama.

Among all the people, the one who surprised Lin Qiu the most was Fan Zheng!

"Go——"

At the circus, Fan Zheng whipped the horse whip, and the horse ran forward in all directions. The sound of horse hooves ran forward in a regular pattern. Fan Zheng pulled out an arrow from the quiver behind him, and pulled the bow with both hands.

"Swish--"

The sound of breaking through the air sounded, and the arrow shot by Fan Zheng hit the target steadily!

His eyebrows were raised, and his whole body was full of the temperament of a young general!

"Not bad!"

Lin Qiu's eyes suddenly lit up, and then he whispered to Director Han Lu.

Yang Liulang Yang Yanzhao!

In the whole Yang Family Generals, the importance of this role is unquestionable. He is talented and has high martial arts skills. His Yang family spearmanship is unparalleled in the world. It can be said that he is an important role with both wisdom and courage!

Among all these young actors, the most amazing one is Fan Zheng!

And the most surprising one is Fang Zhou!

Fang Zhou's acting skills are not bad, and after a month of training, Fang Zhou has become more solid. Although his naked upper body has not yet reached Lin Qiu's requirements, there are still two months.

Especially during this period of contact with Fang Zhou, Lin Qiu felt that this young actor is still quite good.

And Fang Zhou has an advantage over many actors.

That is...

handsome.

Don't underestimate this word "handsome".

The works that can be presented on the screen are extremely important to the audience's perception and beauty.

For example, the Monkey King in the 1986 version of "Journey to the West" and the Monkey King in "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons", the latter is undoubtedly more in line with the original work, because the original work describes him as: "round eyes, shaggy ears, full of hair, thunder mouth".

But the former is definitely more acceptable to the audience.

Although "random editing is not adaptation, nonsense is not play", artistic adaptation objectively exists.

Compared with male actors, there are relatively fewer options for female actors, but fortunately, Lin Qiu's reputation in the entertainment industry is now enough, and many "obscure" actresses want to seize this opportunity!

And Chai Xiaojing, a freelance actress with a foundation in martial arts, was confirmed by Lin Qiu on the spot to play "Mu Guiying"!

This is a heroic actress. The moment she got on the horse, Lin Qiu almost confirmed it.

What made Fan Zheng and Chai Xiaojing even more excited was that Changan also handed over a very generous contract.

In today's entertainment industry, who doesn't know that Changan Film and Television Company is a treasure trove? !

Since "Love Letter", how many movie emperors and actresses has Changan made popular?

How many new actors has it made popular?

Moreover, the high-yield film and television dramas of Changan Film and Television Company give our actors many opportunities to get the moon first!

"The Legend of Yang Family Generals" has many actors, and it is difficult to finalize them all in a short period of time, but several important roles have been assigned one after another!
