Under what circumstances was the classic "Chu Liuxiang" filmed?

1. In the late 1970s, the highest decision-maker in TVB’s production department was Mr. Lin Cixiang.

After General Manager Yu Jingwei passed away, the board of directors appointed three assistant general managers, Mr. Luo Zhongbing, Ms. Liang Shuyi, and Mr. Lin Cixiang.

After the 10th anniversary celebration, Mr. Luo Zhongbing was promoted to general manager.

Ms. Liang Shuyi also flew over the other branches and arrived at Jiashi to take charge.

Mr. Lin became the head of the production and programming department.

Mr. Lin is young and promising, easy-going, modest and prudent, and has won the admiration and support of employees in the program department and production department.

The TV war back then was even more intense, and the "Battle of Chu Liuxiang" fought under his leadership was even more brilliant.

2. Mr. Lin Cixiang is also a fan of martial arts novels.

He has watched "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang".

From his calm expression, I sensed that he was planning this shooting plan.

Mr. Lin does not often speak in meetings, but his speeches hit the point.

Mr. Lin asked: "Who will play Chu Liuxiang, the knight-errant?" When it comes to the role, everyone will naturally look through the artist's photo album and study each actor one by one.

Only this time, everyone doesn't have to reach out for this "treasure book", because they have an answer in their hearts.

Mr. Lam also knew that everyone knew what he was doing, so he deliberately asked, "How would it be if Cheng Shaoqiu plays Chu Liuxiang?" Cheng Shaoqiu has been working at TVB for many years and is an "all-rounder" and "all-weather" actor.

He has participated in "Happy Tonight". He can cope with the often "bursting" comedies with ease, is full of comedy elements, and has a perfect sense of comedy.

He was acting in a fashion drama, and he was so handsome that he really fascinated the female audience.

And acting in a costume drama... dressing up in "cosmet" costumes is really unique.

At a glance, it is obvious that he is the ancient hero and handsome swordsman in the eyes of the audience.

Chu Liuxiang is a character with superb martial arts skills and cool and neat moves. She often appears in the presence of beautiful women, with a spring breeze on her face.

In addition, he is full of decent and humorous words, and his mind is full of sophisticated thoughts. No male actor can play him as similar in spirit and appearance as Qiuguan.

The Chu Liuxiang in Gu Long's mind is Zheng Shaoqiu in ancient costume in real life!

Everyone unanimously praised Zheng Shaoqiu for his starring role.

Producer Wang Tianlin asked: "When will the filming start?" Lin Cixiang flipped through the calendar and said lightly: "The sooner the better!" Generally speaking, it takes two days to organize a twenty-episode TV series.

Three months.

There is a lot of preparation work!

The screenwriter has to write the script, and the art department has to make the scenery, props, costumes, headwear, etc. according to the script.

The script can be written at night, burning the ointment and working on the sundial, non-stop, but carpenters, painters, art workers... they may not be able to rush!

Besides, the TV station also has other regular construction work!

Everyone made an estimate of the possibility by "shooting Chu Liuxiang as quickly as possible".

It seems to take six to seven weeks!

Lin Cixiang remained silent, lit up a cigarette, and said leisurely: "In six to seven weeks, I'm afraid our ratings will have dropped to a 50-50 split. Let's go in ten days! We'll be out in ten days."

"Going out" is a term in the television industry, which means broadcasting.

3. These words swirled in the air, and everyone couldn't help but open their mouths and couldn't close them.

I lowered my head and thought of ways to buy a little more time.

Mr. Lin's voice sounded again: "Aci, you are responsible for coordinating the broadcast of Chu Liuxiang in ten days! Immediately inform the program promotion department and publicity department to prepare. The program department also needs enough time to work!" None of the producers and creative leaders present were half-hearted.

In a word.

I didn't even say a word.

I don't know if the episode of "Escape from the Body" will be filmed and aired ten days from that night.

But I know that things are urgent and it is time for soldiers to put their lives on the line.

As the old saying goes, "It takes a thousand days to raise an army, but it can be used in one day"!

Entering the mountain of swords and getting off the frying pan, as long as you gossip, our brothers will be there!

Back then, Wireless had an old saying that was very encouraging: "There is nothing Wireless can't do!" Based on this sentence, we were full of confidence and immediately opened a room in the old Sha Tin Hotel and summoned the foremen of each department to discuss the work.

Late at night, screenwriters such as Deng Weixiong, Chen Qiaoying, and Tan Ning were left to work on the book!

Ten days later, in front of the fluorescent screen, the audience saw the hero and bandit Chu Liuxiang's Qinggong skills flipping through the night sky; they also saw him effortlessly fight off the wolf-like thugs.

Of course, I even saw him hanging around with several beautiful girls, eating worldly delicacies and talking about worldly things.

Zheng Shaoqiu lived up to the expectations of the people behind the scenes and performed lively, vivid and expressive in a working environment where he filmed for ten hours a day.

But everything can't be perfect.

Trouble is coming.

One day after filming started, Zheng Shaoqiu unexpectedly disappeared from the scene!

Are you sick?

At that time, Fei Fei, who loved Qiu Guan, was not in Hong Kong.

Finally, we found out that Qiu Guan was "trapped" on the Jiahe set.

It turns out that before filming Chu Liuxiang, Qiu Guan had agreed to star in a martial arts film with Jiahe Film Company.

The director of this film "The Famous Sword" is Tam Jiaming, who has made many TV series for TVB.

The filming progress of "The Famous Sword" was not as good as expected. It took a long time and two or three producers were changed. The latest producer is Zhong Guoren. Zai is also the director of Golden Harvest. He is very motivated.

Film producers and TV production coordinators worked hard to "live up" for Zheng Shaoqiu.

The protagonist almost lost all his points twenty-four hours a day.

Humans are neither grass nor trees, nor are they made of steel. How can they work on TV and movies for weeks without sleep, not to mention that Chu Liuxiang did not have sufficient preparation time and broadcast without "inventory".

The director has to rush to work every day and rush to shoot so that he can complete another episode for broadcast.
