Personal experience

Hong Kong Radio

A series of Jin Yong dramas remade in the 1990s made me familiar with the name. Although the audience rating of Jin Yong's plays is generally not low, it's really a thankless thing. Without it, Zhu Yu comes first, and people's nostalgic complex makes it impossible to make a remake that everyone praises. In just a few years, Li Tiansheng has remade almost all of Jin Yong's novels. There was no excessive hype, so they came to us quietly and commented with praise. But as a TV play, it is undoubtedly successful. As a remake of Jin Yong's play, I think it is also successful, at least the first five.

What I admire most is Li Tiansheng's casting. There is no one-of-a-kind selection, but the one chosen is always the most suitable one.

As for the small scenes and fake scenery, it's not just the reason of refusing to invest money, but the problem of production mode is not mentioned here. In 2001, Li Tiansheng was the producer of a popular fashion drama "beautiful life". I've seen a lot of his big productions. I have a fresh sketch. It's pretty good. So far, it has been serving wireless for more than 40 years, with about 60 works.

Gold medal producer Li Tiansheng and gold medal screenwriter Zhang Huabiao

"The heroine" has become a big winner of the 2009 series. Deng Cuiwen and Li Yaoxiang have made it to the rear view emperor. Li Tiansheng, the producer, and Zhang Huabiao, the editor, have made great contributions behind the scenes. Everyone hopes that the original "heroine" sequel "Yihai Haoqing" will go to the next city. However, Zhang Huabiao has decided to leave wireless. It is said that wireless will not hesitate to send out general manager Chen Zhiyun to retain talents Zeng Lizhen, a senior executive, tried to retain him, but in the end he failed.

Zhang Huabiao told the agent that after 29 years in wireless, he grew up with many partners and colleagues, so he decided to resign from Taiwan's new TV station after a long time of deliberation. "I've thought about it for more than four months, and finally I want to change my environment. Of course, I'm not willing to. Especially, I have a tacit understanding and a spark with Tiange. Everyone's thinking is so close, but all the world comes to an end! I didn't leave until the middle of April. By that time, Yihai Haoqing will be almost finished, so it won't have a big impact. "

As for the departure of a good partner, Tian Ge said frankly that he felt a good pity: "I had cooperated with Huabiao when I was on the edge. Our thinking was very similar. The drama" towel "was the most unforgettable and representative. How many ten years of life" came from Huabiao. (did the company send you to retain him?) When he knew that he had decided to work for Li Zhiying, Huabiao had already implemented it, so it was not suitable to say anything. In addition, he was about to retire, so he could selfishly ask people to stay low! As a friend, we can only hope that he has a good development, but it is a pity for the company to lose this good man. " However, there are reports that the Huabiao La team has left wireless, and the "Yi" drama is at any time at a bad end. "Of course not! How can Huabiao lead the team to go? Besides, there are already 10 episodes of scripts. There should be 20 episodes before shooting in March. It won't have an impact, will it

Designated Supervisor

Faithful to the original and appointed producer of historical Jin Yong drama

Li Tiansheng said that "jiaoxiong of Chu Han" is about historical facts, so it can't be changed. It can't be moved under the premise of historical events. However, the audience rating of the play is not ideal, because in addition to the loss of a class of housewives, the teenagers don't like to watch it: "today's students don't like to read history." Li Tiansheng, who likes reading, is worried about this. For this reason, he also searched all the ancient books that recorded Liu Bang, such as Shiji, Zizhitongjian, the romance of the Western Han Dynasty in the Ming Dynasty, including some Japanese books.

He who likes history fully respects history, even when he supervises the production of "biography of the arched heroes", "heroes of the divine eagle", "Xiaoao Lake" and "Tianlong Babu": "there is no change in any historical event in Jinyong's drama, and I have explored every place carefully." Faithfulness to the original works and history is the first gist of Li Tiansheng's historical costume dramas and martial arts dramas. Compared with some writers who like to rewrite history and make up, this Hong Kong director shows the greatest respect for Chinese culture. As for the mainland's hot shooting of Jin Yong drama, Li Tiansheng said that Hong Kong will not shoot it again: "the mainland has done it again. It will take a few years for Hong Kong to film. " As for the martial arts dramas made in the mainland, Li Tiansheng said that "Tianlong Babu" is very faithful to the original work and almost does not change a word, while "biography of the Shooting Heroes" is not so serious when it comes to the later parts, and the rhythm is too long and a bit slow.

"TV dramas are not driven by actors. Scripts are very important," Li added

Li Tiansheng: insist on low cost and high quality

The boy who worked in props and scenery 34 years ago has become the director of drama production. Tian Ge, who has spent 34 years of his youth, has gained a lot, including his sense of satisfaction, achievement, status, and the reputation of "designated producer of Jin Yong drama". Biography of the archery hero, hero of the divine carving, Xiaoao River and lake, Tianlong Babu, Lu Ding Ji and Xueshan Feihu were selected as the blue blood sword of Taiqing opera. As long as there are several famous works of Jin Yong, Tian Ge once made it into a TV play.

"There is no denying that I am really familiar with Jin Yong's masterpieces. As a teenager, I have read all Jin Yong's masterpieces. After reading them over and over again, I can almost recite the contents. Maybe the company knows that I am familiar with them, so it asks me to start shooting year after year, and I'm not happy until the shooting is finished."

Tiange believes that "blue blood sword" was chosen as a Taiqing opera, not only because it is Jin Yong's work. "The play was filmed in Nanhai film and Television City, where it was built in the actual proportion of Nanjing hongxiuquan palace, which made this Ming Dynasty drama more powerful."

"Don't think it's going to cost a lot of money to go out to make a play. It turns out that low-cost production can be of high quality. It may cost more than two million yuan for a general show to be shot in Guangdong Province, but as a result, I finished the production of about one million. My aim is to save money for the company while producing high-quality programs. "

In addition to considering the cost, when making a series, I believe that the biggest headache for the producer is to choose actors! "I hope to cultivate more new people, so I chose Ou Zixin as Wen Qingqing. As for yuan Chengzhi, he is not a romantic great Xia, but a country boy with his father's enmity. Lin Jiadong can perform this kind of inner play. This is the first play of she Shiman, and she works hard to do it. I also think her acting skills are constantly improving. Meiheng has a beautiful child, and Jianghua has a great Xia In terms of appearance, they are most suitable for performing ancient costume dramas. "

Even though there was a storm during the shooting in the South China Sea, which caused the collapse of the city wall and the submergence of the dock, which slowed down the progress of the shooting, I was lucky to get through all the difficulties in Tiange, and it turned out that Jiang was getting hotter and hotter!
