How dramatic is the casting of Liang Jian for the rejected and deceived monk Wei?

It's been 17 years since "Bright Sword" was broadcast. But now think back to "Bright Sword". I still remember it. Especially when Li Yunlong challenged Sakata United, that sentence: I don't believe this evil, I played elite. That is, in such a real shooting, Li Youbin played Li Yunlong to the peak.

Li Youbin plays Li Yunlong.

In other words, due to the market environment at that time, it took three years for Liang Jian to be discovered, copyrighted and formally established. Not optimistic is a major injury. The total investment before filming was less than 9 million, and the production of 30 episodes was less than 300 thousand each. Insufficient investment, quality together, the director is cruel. In that case, I have to find a big coffee to play the leading role and get the ratings up.

As a result, Tang Guoqiang, a TV elder brother at that time, held up half the sky with plays such as Yongzheng Dynasty and Long March, and became the best candidate in Li Yunlong. In order to show sincerity, the director was cruel and offered 550 thousand "sky-high price" As for the value of Tang at that time, it is not worth mentioning. Sure enough, he politely refused, and the director later added it to 1 10,000, but the other party was still indifferent.

In desperation, the director can only find Li Youbin, whose coffee table is a little smaller, but he doesn't care about the pay, so he comes up to read the script first. At first glance, Li Yunlong has been in a state of war, so it is difficult to shoot. On second thought, I am 46 years old, and I am afraid that my body can't stand the toss, so I just want to refuse. As it happens, my friend Shi Lanya saw the play and was deeply attracted by it. He thinks Li Yunlong is a once-in-a-lifetime good role. He strongly recommended: Be sure to play! Li Youbin just read the script carefully. Indeed, Li Yunlong's personality is somewhat similar to his own, and there is still room for development. In this way, he took the role. However, as he expected, the shooting process suffered a lot.

Through "deception", he got the role of monk Wei.

Shooting will start the next day, and the actors are basically finalized, but the director thinks that the actor who plays the guardian is almost interesting. It's five minutes to seven in the evening, and there is no more suitable candidate, so it can only be tentative. Just then, Zhang Tong knocked at the door and came in: "Hello, Director, I'm here to interview the prison guard." "Guards should know martial arts, right?" Hearing this, Zhang Tong put the information aside, took two steps back, and made a few moves cleanly and stopped.

The director's serious expression suddenly stretched out. "Just you, go upstairs and sign the contract." Now it's Zhang Tong's turn to freeze. Is that okay? However, I was very happy to get the role, and the next second he followed the staff to go through the formalities.

Later, Zhang admitted in a program that he actually knew nothing about martial arts, but only those moves. Fortunately, the director didn't delve into it, so he didn't break the work. But the role was cheated. He played very hard and made many jokes.

The cast of Liang Jian is very frugal.

Not only in all kinds of expenses, but also in the choice of actors. Many roles are cameos of the cast. Do you remember Liang Jian's most domineering brigade commander? He was played by Zhang Wei, deputy director of Liang Jian. I have to say that Liang Jian's cast is very good, and any role is impressive. It can be seen that this drama is really a conscience anti-Japanese drama.

Moreover, many props in it are reused, and a walk-on has appeared in it several times. Not only that, Ming Jian is very stingy in spending on props. At first, the cavalry even had two horses. Later, the director felt that the two horses really couldn't go on, so he borrowed other horses, indicating that the TV series was really short of funds.

Besides, the schedule is tight. The schedule of "Sword" is winter, but winter is also very good, because the harsh environment of the anti-Japanese drama is very suitable for the cold atmosphere in winter, which shows that this drama is really at the right time, and fighting the enemy in the cold winter can better show the fighting spirit of China soldiers. One thing is not in line with historical facts, that is, the Japanese surrendered in summer, but Zhang Dabiao attended the surrender ceremony in winter.
