Huayu Entertainment: Rising Since 1998

Fan Binbin perfectly embodies the character of Shangguan Haitang in "The World's Finest".

In "The World's Number One", Zhou Yan gave Shangguan Haitang a second interpretation: she is not only the owner of the World's Number One Manor, but also the most beautiful woman in the world.

Because she was too beautiful, Shenhou had her dress as a man to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Even so, she still caught the eye of Princess Yunluo.

Fortunately, Princess Yunluo knew that Shangguan Haitang was a woman, and with the appearance of Cheng Shifei, she "fell in love with someone else".

Shangguan Haitang, disguised as a man, is incredibly handsome, and her true appearance is absolutely stunning. Only in this way can she attract so many people to like, admire, and be fascinated by her.

In "The World's Number One", besides the world's number one richest man Wan Sanqian and Guihai Yidao, the emperor also has a crush on Shangguan Haitang.

Michelle Ye's looks are certainly not bad.

However, it cannot be denied that Michelle Ye's appearance is still somewhat inferior to that of Fan Binbin.

Director Wang Jing was overjoyed when Zhou Yan and Fan Binbin appeared.

Putting aside acting skills, the character's appearance alone is impeccable.

Moreover, one of them is an award-winning actor, and the other has starred in several hit dramas, so their acting skills are beyond doubt.

With the arrival of Zhou Yan, Fan Binbin, Huang Haibing, and others, filming of "The World's Number One" officially began.

The wire work on Yuen Woo-ping's side was also set up, and he was explaining the precautions and actions that Zhou Yan needed to perform.

"After you fly into the sky, you strike a few slashing and swinging motions. There will be special effects added later. Finally, you slash fiercely at Yang Yang," Yuen Woo-ping explained to Zhou Yan.

"Okay, I understand," Zhou Yan listened attentively.

This Yang Yang is not the Yang Yang who was the most handsome boy at the PLA Academy of Arts, but Zhou Yan's classmate, Yang Yang from the 2000 class of the Performance Department.

He made a cameo appearance in this drama as Pi Xiaotian, the head of the Eastern Depot.

That is, the "master" who shot the arrow at the beginning.

The beginning was quite impressive and boastful. In his previous life, Zhou Yan thought the other party would be a big boss, but he didn't expect him to be so weak and was instantly killed by Gui Hai with a single slash.

It started strong but ended weakly – a classic case of starting strong but finishing weak.

Yang Yang is wearing the costume of the Eastern Depot, which is somewhat different from the original work. The costumes and props in this TV series are very elaborate.

The clothing of the Eastern Depot was exactly what it was supposed to be, and they tried their best to make it aesthetically pleasing.

Yang Yang and Zhou Yan do not live together.

Zhou Yan, Fan Binbin, and Jia Jingwen are the main characters, and they live in relatively nice places.

Yang Yang and the others were just guest stars; their status was too low.

So the place I live in is not very good.

The two of them only met today.

Yang Yang, dressed in the uniform of the Eastern Depot, stood on a thatched hut.

He really does have a bit of a "father-in-law" vibe.

Zhou Yan found Yang Yang's appearance quite amusing.

After Huang Haibing finished filming his scenes, it was immediately Zhou Yan's turn.

Yang Yang stood on the rooftop, watching the encirclement and slaughter below.

"Bring me the bow," Yang Yang said, extending his right hand.

"Yes," the extra immediately handed the bow to the other person.

Yang Yang reached out and took it, then grabbed a handful of arrows and immediately drew his bow and nocked an arrow.

"Go to hell!" Yang Yang fired directly.

"Okay, cut!" the director hurriedly shouted.

These arrows couldn't be fired at all; they needed to be cut and processed with special effects later.

"Zhou Yan, it's your turn," Wang Jing called out to Zhou Yan, who was watching from the side.

"Here I am," Zhou Yan said, quickly arriving at the designated location.

The camera immediately pointed at him.

Zhou Yan was strapped to wires, and these details will need to be edited in post-production.

"Okay, action!" Wang Jing shouted into the walkie-talkie after Zhou Yan was ready.

"brush."

Zhou Yan immediately took flight under the pull of the wire.

Zhou Yan drew his sword in mid-air and swung it around.

Several extras around Yang Yang fell down, pretending to be injured by the sword energy.

Yang Yang also got into the zone and immediately drew his weapon.

The long sword spun around Zhou Yan's wrist before he gripped it again, and then unleashed a powerful slash down.

The knife-spinning motion is stylish and cool, quite pretentious.

"Clang!" Yang Yang immediately blocked with his sword.

The two weapons clashed together.

"Cut!" Director Wang Jing called out again.

Zhou Yan landed in front of Yang Yang without moving.

"Props team!" Wang Jing shouted.

Soon, a dedicated person ran over to adjust the props.

"There will be some dangers ahead, but don't worry, it's absolutely safe," Wang Jing reassured them.

"clear."

After the scene was set up, Zhou Yan and Yang Yang began their performance again.

"start."

The surrounding staff pulled on the ropes.

Zhou Yan and Yang Yang fell from the roof, and the roof of the thatched house was shattered into pieces.

There's a thick cushion underneath.

Zhou Yan and Yang Yang landed safely on it.

The scene changed again, and the staff removed the mats from the ground, replacing the weapon in Yang Yang's hand with a prop.

After landing, Zhou Yan sheathed his sword with a very elegant movement and turned to leave.

The prop knife in Yang Yang's hand split open in the middle and then broke into two pieces.

Yang Yang's face was full of disbelief, and his eyes were filled with an incredulous expression.

The makeup artist immediately came over to touch up the makeup.

A bloody gash appeared on Yang Yang's forehead, as if he had been hacked open, and he collapsed to the ground with a thud.

"Okay, Yang Yang's scenes are finished." Director Wang Jing shouted loudly.

It took the crew two hours to film just this short scene.

Zhou Yan stepped forward and reached out to help Yang Yang up.

"How are you feeling?" Zhou Yan said with a smile.

"Great," Yang Yang said happily.

This was his first time acting.

It was so much fun!

"I'll contact you again if there are other scenes to film," Zhou Yan patted the other person on the shoulder.

"Thank you, godfather," Yang Yang chuckled.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Zhou Yan went back to filming, while a staff member found Yang Yang and handed him a red envelope.

Although Yang Yang's role was a cameo, his screen time was minimal.

Even extras who play roles like corpses receive a red envelope as compensation.

Moreover, Yang Yang and Zhou Yan are roommates, so the staff would be even less likely to discriminate against them!

……

Zhou Yan's performance won over everyone present.

This guy is not only a good actor, but also incredibly skilled in martial arts.

They are naturally suited to make a living from "kung fu movies" and "wuxia movies".

The same movement, when performed by Zhou Yan, was extremely entertaining, and its power also seemed considerable.

Director Wang Jing gave this point multiple close-ups to showcase it.

It would be a waste not to showcase such beautiful martial arts moves.

Wang Jing and Li Lianjie have collaborated many times.

For example, "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber: The Demon Cult Leader".

After witnessing Zhou Yan's martial arts skills, Wang Jing frankly stated that, in terms of martial arts alone, Zhou Yan was the second Li Lianjie.

Why only martial arts?

In terms of acting skills, Zhou Yan is a Berlin Film Festival Best Actor winner, so what does Li Lianjie have to compete with?

However, Jet Li is not without advantages. He is famous, works in Hollywood, is an international movie star, and can carry the box office.

The weather cooperated well over the next few days, and the filming went very smoothly.

Zhang Weijian arrived at the film set the evening after filming began and quickly got into shooting mode.
