I'm not mentally ill, I'm a master of a thousand faces!

Chapter 262, The Boy and the Taoist Priest

"My memories of my mother are very faint. How old was she when she died?"

"I have no idea."

"I know she knows some martial arts and has always made a living by weaving."

"I asked her, 'Where is my father? What kind of person was he?'"

"She always said that he was a great hero who stood tall and upright."

at this time.

Li Yun paused for a moment before speaking.

"Well, he's not a great hero, you might be disappointed."

"But Mother hopes Father will be a great hero, a man of integrity and uprightness." The boy wiped his nose and chuckled, "I also hope Father will be a great hero, a man of integrity and uprightness."

"How can I, as his son, embarrass him?"

In the pursuit of becoming a great hero and his own life.

The young man chose the "chivalrous" path in his heart.

At this moment, Li Yun woke up.

I slept soundly until dawn.

There were no cold, desolate caves, no hunger or cold clothing, and no martial arts figures who could kill you at any moment.

It's the blankets, the room, and the world outside the window—sunny, with birds singing and flowers blooming.

In the warmth of reality.

Continuing

Li Yun looked at the 'Yang Guo' beside him.

He still looks like that sincere young man, but now he seems to have made his own choice.

"I admire you very much," Li Yun said after a pause, "You upheld your decision to become 'Yang Guo'."

"So, what did you do wrong that you were called 'Zi Gaizhi' (a homophone for 'correcting one's character')?"

Yang Guo did not respond to Li Yun

Don't Have

"I heard we have a Hong Kong Film Awards candidate here."

"It's just Best Supporting Actor, not Best Actor."

"Best Supporting Actor is also impressive. How many of us here have been nominated? We just envy that he was so young when he won the award, and that his future is limitless."

"A promising future is hard to say. Every year, the three major awards can produce countless Best Supporting Actor winners and nominees, but the fact is that winning Best Supporting Actor doesn't guarantee a bright future."

On the set of "The Return of the Condor Heroes," several veteran actors chatted with great interest. For others, the Golden Eagle Award for Best Supporting Actor is an achievement that is unattainable, but for these veteran actors, they have worked with countless Best Supporting Actors.

It can only be said that there are quite a few people present who have won the three major awards, including supporting actors.

Li Yun is most praised for his nominations for two roles!

This is indeed one of the three major awards in China, an unprecedented achievement.

To date, no one has ever been nominated for two roles in the same award ceremony.

"Actually, you don't need to say that. I think Li Yun is already very capable."

"That's because you're ignorant and haven't seen more amazing actors."

"Maybe so, anyway, the elders in my family all speak highly of him."

The speaker is Cheng Feng, who plays Zhen Zhibing.

As the second most enviable character in the entire Condor Heroes, after all, throughout the whole series, only Master Zhen Zhibing was able to get close to her and have a deep conversation with her.

This is a highly accomplished master of the Quanzhen School of Taoism.

He adhered to the strict rules and regulations his whole life, but in the end, he couldn't compete with the fairy Xiaolongnu descending to earth, and ultimately made a mistake that he could never make up for.

Unlike others, this male actor who was a professional host simply got in through connections.

Despite having almost no acting experience, he was still cast in this important supporting role with a significant amount of screen time.

It certainly can't be said that it's because of his elders.

Probably not.

Cheng Feng has a certain admiration for Li Yun. To outsiders, this is just a feeling that comes from someone who has never seen the world and has never seen a truly great actor. If he had seen a truly great actor, would he still have such feelings?

Probably not.

"Alright, then you should follow us around and see how we play our roles, and how we real veteran actors act." At this moment, Jiang Mingtao, who plays Guo Jing, looked at Cheng Feng from the side.

He is considered a veteran actor, having won the Magnolia Award for Best Supporting Actor and received numerous nominations for the Golden Eagle Award and the Hong Kong Film Award.

Rumors circulate that the reason he couldn't become a TV King was simply because he wasn't born with the look of a leading man.

This is a very regrettable thing.

Having acting skills but lacking the presence of a leading actor means you're only good for supporting roles; in the end, you'll only ever become a veteran actor.

But this time, there was one thing that made him quite indignant, even angry.

What makes Li Yun, who also lacks the qualities of a protagonist, so special?

At this moment, when talking to Cheng Feng about the protagonist's appearance, he said.

"The teacher said that not having a protagonist's aura is not a wrong direction. Chaplin didn't have a protagonist's aura. On the contrary, not having a protagonist's aura means he has a higher ceiling. He is not fixed by a formula and can move freely in all kinds of roles."

"Oh, you're right."

Jiang Mingtao was both amused and exasperated.

He really is a bookworm.

Even Charlie Chaplin came.

At this time, "The Return of the Condor Heroes" was also starting filming in a grand manner. Even Liu Qianqian participated in the script reading, but Yang Guo, the key character, did not participate in the reading.

Although everyone knows that this is the main character.

But the protagonist is not entirely without worries either.

This time, "The Return of the Condor Heroes" is also being watched closely.

Fans of the original work, and also TVB fans.

And Gu Tianle's fans even let bygones be bygones, since the rumor that Li Yun snatched Gu Tianle's role was not just hearsay.

In the film industry, Gu Tianle may not be very convincing.

In the world of television dramas, Gu Tianle is at a level where he can deliver a powerful blow.

A leading male character.

Gu Tianle.

No one knows whether Zhang Da Hu Zi will be able to complete the task this time and produce a satisfactory result for "The Return of the Condor Heroes".

Everyone is watching this big IP production.

At this moment, Zhou Liang sensed the atmosphere on set and whispered to Zhang Dahuzi next to him.

"What do you think of Mr. Jin Yong's casting choices?"

This time, the supporting roles are played by the ruthless master Qiu Qianren, Guo Jing, and Huang Rong. These are all veteran actors.

This time, the budget still exceeded the budget.

The entire cast are veteran actors.

Every plot point and every main character in every volume is played by veteran actors from the Beijing acting circle, whose professional level and acting skills are all outstanding.

The Condor Heroes attracted even more veteran actors than Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils. During the auditions, the roles of Guo Jing and Huang Rong were probably even more sought after than the main characters.

"he?"

Zhang the Bearded Man joked, "He's not optimistic. He says Li Yun doesn't have Yang Guo's youthful spirit. However, from his perspective, he seems willing to give Li Yun a chance."

after all.

Li Yun's portrayal of Murong Fu was so compelling that Jin Yong was able to change the character's ending.

When Jin Yong learned that Li Yun was going to play Yang Guo, his reaction was that Li Yun did not have the youthful feeling that Yang Guo should have.

This is an innate quality that cannot be changed.

Actually, the casting of Zhang Dahuzi is somewhat controversial. As we all know, casting is about choosing the right person.

Go and choose a suitable actor who matches your temperament.

Back then, what Gu Tianle was most praised for was his youthful charm. Because of this youthful charm, it didn't matter if his acting skills were a little lacking.

"You think that acting skills can make up for the lack of youthful charm, right? I think Li Yun probably can't reach that level of acting skills yet." Zhou Liang paused and said, "At the Golden Eagle Awards, I actually watched some of Li Yun's performances, and they were really brilliant. But whether it was the Moon Worship Cult Leader or Erlang Shen, these two roles that brought him honors, there was actually a point that I had to pay attention to."

"Their personalities actually have some things in common. They are able to endure, plan, and drive their actions for their grand plans and ideals."

"But the protagonist doesn't need these things. In fact, this kind of personality might even be a weakness for the protagonist."

Often, the protagonist's sense of righteousness and love are without reason.

This feeling of youthful impulsiveness.

This is what Zhou Liang felt Li Yun lacked most.

Zhang Da Huzi neither confirmed nor denied this.

Li Yun is now a tree, a thriving and large tree, but certainly not the kind that can pierce the sky.

There were his own considerations in casting Li Yun as Yang Guo.

Perhaps Li Yun won't give Zhang Dahuzi a surprise as it seems on the surface.

Perhaps for Zhang Dahuzi, Li Yun's role might bring another pleasant surprise.

At this moment, Zhang Da Huzi was looking at Liu Qianqian's side.

This somewhat controversial yet incredibly promising Little Dragon Girl.

She was resting her cheek on her hand.

He stared at his script, somewhat absentmindedly.

"Why hasn't my leading man arrived yet?"

Zhang the Bearded Man smiled and turned around.

For example, it can enhance the feelings of a young girl who is in love but unaware of it.

At this moment.

The script reading for The Return of the Condor Heroes has now concluded.

Next, it was time for the official filming.

When filming officially began, Zhang Da Huzi transformed into the "tyrant Zhang" that others talked about.

Irritability and aggression.

He always seemed to dislike everyone.

Of course, it wasn't that he disliked anyone; rather, as a producer, he wanted to maximize the potential of this major IP project.

Of Jin Yong's four novels, The Return of the Condor Heroes has the widest range of adaptations, the highest popularity, and the most deeply rooted character settings. In every way, it is Jin Yong's "most".

His masterpiece, created during his peak period.

Patriotism and personal feelings were all seamlessly integrated.

This is The Return of the Condor Heroes.

He represents the grudges and passions.

Li Yun arrived at the film set at this time.

As the main character.

As the protagonist who grows throughout the entire Divine Condor Heroes story.

Li Yun has a deep understanding of this role.

Young man.

Let's come together.

However, at this moment, Li Yun discovered...

Young Yang Guo wasn't the only one who came along.
