The crew of "The Return of the Condor Heroes" is near the film and television city, halfway up the mountain.

Different from usual days, the crew now has dozens of cameras and long guns set up around in addition to the camera crew's equipment.

They were all media outlets invited by Big Beard.

When it comes to publicity and hype, in those days, no one was better than the bearded guy!

Moreover, he not only makes the best use of his actors.

He also planned to make the best use of the "guest" invited by Mr. Jin.

I specially invited Mr. Jin to come and watch the crew's filming and give some suggestions in the end.

Isn't it good to say?
Mr. Jin must give him face and say something nice.

By the time the media promoted the drama, even though it hadn't been aired yet, it had already received praise and recognition from Mr. Jin Yong.

It's all routines.

Mr. Jin knew the situation and cooperated.

"Da da da da..."

As Zhang Yuan was getting ready, he heard a strange noise coming from the surroundings.

"Who drove the tractor up the hill?"

He looked back and saw that the tractor was gone, but there was a Little Dragon Girl.

At this time, Liu Qianqian was trembling all over.

The strange sound was caused by her upper and lower teeth chattering.

"Your teeth are your biggest weakness, so stop bothering them." Zhang Yuan came to her side and said with a smile.

Xiao Long Nu pouted and glared at him.

"What's wrong? Isn't filming always going well?"

“There aren’t usually so many people here.”

"It's okay for the media, but Mr. Jin is also here. It will be embarrassing if I don't perform well." Liu Qianqian swung her arms, and her wide sleeves brought up a cool breeze.

Stubborn and proud, that's her.

"Besides, we're going to shoot a fight scene soon. Even though we've been training for a long time, I'm still afraid that I'll make mistakes and the fight won't look good."

Indeed, all the content to be filmed later will be fighting scenes.

After all, with so many media here, what's the point of shooting a literary drama? The action scenes are all good to watch.

Moreover, Big Beard is good at shooting action scenes, so naturally he has to play to his strengths and avoid his weaknesses, showing his best side in front of Mr. Jin.

"You don't have to worry." Zhang Yuan said softly.

"Yeah." Sissi smiled when she was comforted.

"There's no difference between fighting scenes and literary scenes. You're not good at either."

Liu Qianqian: …

The little flame in my heart is burning!

She was huffing and puffing...she was so angry that her mouth was crooked.

"Hehehe...are you still nervous?"

Hey...once Liu Qianqian felt it, she wasn't nervous anymore.

I was so angry that my adrenaline was almost rising, how could I even tremble?

"Can't you just comfort me..." She complained with a frown.

Zhang Yuan glanced at her and thought to himself, with your personality, it's no use trying to comfort her.

"Actually, what I'm worried about is not only the fighting scenes, but filming fighting scenes with you." Xixi held her chin with one hand and drew a pig's head on the mud with her toes.

"You're so good, what if I can't keep up with your moves?"

"You've already beaten me once, how could I be better than you?" Zhang Yuan raised his foot and added long hair to the pig head she drew.

"Yeah." Thinking of this, Xiao Longnu looked at him and smiled knowingly: "But I'm still nervous."

"It's okay." Zhang Yuan stood up: "If you don't run to me, I can run to you."

Deng Deng Deng Deng...

Hearing the other party suddenly say this, Liu Qianqian's heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

"You, you, you...what are you talking about?"

How can you say this in public?

Isn't this a line from a romance novel?

"You'll understand in a moment. Let's learn some moves first." Zhang Yuan didn't care and threw the prop sword he would use later to her.

Under Zhao Jian's guidance, the two went through the action process again.

In fact, I had already practiced it several times last night, and I also did a lot of action drills during the previous training, so it shouldn't be too difficult.

Liu Qianqian was worried, firstly because there were too many people, and secondly, because she had to shoot a fight scene with him.

And it's not just a duel, it's a combination of two swords, two people performing the same set of moves.

That's why she was worried.

Soon it was time to start shooting.

The fighting scenes were directed by Zhao Jian, so he was sitting behind the monitor, but there were many people today, so Yu Min was also present and stood aside.

"The Return of the Condor Heroes, Scene 27, First Shot, First Time, ACTION!"

The first part filmed was Xiaolongnu’s solo dance.

Liu Qianqian was dressed in white, holding a long sword and dancing gracefully in the sunlight.

The sword dance moves are interspersed with a lot of classical dance moves such as turning, lifting legs, and twisting waists.

The resulting photo has a slightly less powerful feel, but is more beautiful.

And it just happens to fit Liu Xixi's dance foundation.

The hard practice paid off, her movements were very smooth, without any mistakes or forgetfulness.

"Not bad."

"great progress."

"You've done the movements right, and your body is stretched." Zhao Jian praised her after she finished doing it once.

Of course I was exaggerating on purpose to give her some confidence.

But sometimes, whether filming goes smoothly or not doesn’t just depend on the people.

We had no problems shooting fight scenes in ancient tombs or at night before.

But when we arrived at the mountain today, a small problem occurred.

Because there is wind in the mountains.

When Liu Qianqian was dancing with a sword, if there was a slight breeze, her already light costume would immediately flutter and then stick to her face in an instant.

There were several times when the entire skirt covered my head, but luckily I was wearing pants.

"Pooh, pooh, pooh..."

He has to spit his sleeves out of his mouth while dancing with a sword. Just imagine how annoying it is.

I finally managed to get through this period, but Liu Qianqian was exhausted.

"Okay, next is Shuangjian Hebi, you two come together."

"Pay attention to the coordinated movements."

"Remember the previous practice."

Liu Qianqian took a few deep breaths and looked back at Zhang Yuan.

Seeing that the other party looked relaxed, she felt a little relieved.

"Come on, ACYION!"

Swish!
The two people who were originally standing still turned around at the same time and pointed their swords forward.

"Yo!"

As soon as he made a move, the martial arts instructor Zhao Jian's eyes moved.

Did they perform the moves well?
Actually average.

Especially Liu Qianqian, who had just finished a set and had to keep NGing because her clothes were stuck to her face, and her physical strength was obviously not as good as before.

This girl is stubborn but also very dedicated. She works very hard and doesn't cut corners or play tricks. She doesn't just do it in a limp way.

But in the end, the speed of the movement was still a little slower than expected.

Not as fierce as imagined.

But the problem is not with Xiaolongnu, but with Yang Guo!
After all, Zhao Jian is a professional martial arts director who has filmed many large-scale TV series.

And because he had worked with Zhang Yuan in "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils", he was deeply impressed by Zhang Yuan's kung fu.

What are the characteristics of Zhang Yuan’s movements?
Practical, concise and powerful.

And the basic skills are very solid.

Especially the methods and techniques of exerting force in body, leg and boxing are extremely standard.

So when Yu Min complained that Zhang Yuan didn't come to the training camp, Zhao Jian, who was in charge of the fighting scenes, was not worried at all.

With his basic skills, he can learn anything quickly, so it doesn't matter whether he comes or not.

But when I look at it again today, it has completely changed!

"He, why are his movements completely different from before?"

“It has become much softer and more elegant.”

"And this force-generating technique isn't right either."

“The way he used his arms and waist to generate power was completely different from before.”

"It looks like, like..." Zhao Jian looked at him hesitantly, feeling that Zhang Yuan's movements looked very familiar.

As usual, Liu Xiaoli, who always accompanies her daughter on the crew, is standing in the rest area not far away.

At this time, her eyes widened.

"Why are Zhang Yuan's movements exactly the same as Xixi's?"

As mentioned before, the fighting moves of Xiaolongnu in The Return of the Condor Heroes were specially designed to combine with classical dance. The signature attack move of "Golden Bells and White Silk" was inspired by the moves of Water Sleeve Dance.

In fact, there are quite a few film and television dramas that borrow the movements of water sleeve dance.

For example, the most famous one is the move in "House of Flying Daggers" where Zhang Ziyi beats the drums with her sleeves.

Because it involves many dance moves, Liu Xiaoli is considered an expert and often gives guidance to her daughter.

So she, like Zhao Jian, immediately noticed the difference in Zhang Yuan.

And discovered the source of his actions even faster.

When Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu practiced sword skills together, their movements should have been coordinated.

But what is consistent in Zhang Yuan is not only the moves, but also the details of using various muscles and the force techniques.

Looking from a distance, Liu Xiaoli seemed a little dazed.

If she were to be confronted with this, she would wonder if she had myopia, as her two daughters were dancing with swords there.

"no……"

"Does this guy want to seduce my daughter?"

"Or do you want to be my daughter?"

"When he's like this, I feel like Xixi has a new sister."

Not only Liu Xiaoli noticed it, but also Brother Xiu Ge, who played Yin Kexi, noticed it.

He has worked as a stuntman for many years, and often has to imitate the action characteristics of the protagonist. He is an expert at imitating actions.

Now looking at Zhang Yuan's appearance, he couldn't help but give him a thumbs up.

"Okay!"

"Otherwise he is better than my brother."

The good thing about Xiu Ge is that he is a sincere person and does not take sides.

"He obviously imitated the movements of the little dragon girl in detail, and he did a very good job."

“But at the same time, I haven’t lost my strong core.”

"Soft yet strong, the combination is so beautiful."

Zhang Zhenyong, who played Nemo Star and was watching the show next to him, had a strange expression on his face and seemed to be muttering something.

"Is this what his Kung Fu is like?"

"Then how did he win..."

After completing the set of moves, it was smooth and flowing, and the two people coordinated flawlessly, as if they were operating in a mirror.

"Card!"

"Come here, both of you." Zhao Jian immediately called over to the two of them.

Especially Zhang Yuan, he was full of questions.

"Director, did we fight well just now?" Liu Qianqian asked with some concern.

"It's pretty good. There are a few details that need to be improved. You guys are working well together."

"Huh..." Hearing this, Xiaolongnu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Zhang Yuan, why are your movements...different from before?"

Liu Qianqian, who was watching the replay, also felt it: "Yes."

"Exactly the same as me... Yeah."

Liu Qianqian suddenly remembered that Zhang Yuan had said before that he would run towards her. So this is what he meant.

He just imitated his own actions!
"It's like this." Zhang Yuan opened his mouth slowly and explained.

"According to the original novel, Yang Guo only learned the Toad Skill from Ouyang Feng before entering the ancient tomb."

"Besides that, I didn't learn any other skills."

"Huang Rong was afraid of him, so she only taught him the Four Books and Five Classics."

"The Quanzhen Sect targeted him by only letting him memorize the Quanzhen Heart Method, but did not teach him how to practice it."

“So before joining the Ancient Tomb Sect, Yang Guo didn’t know how to use any sword techniques.”

"His swordsmanship is completely the Jade Maiden Swordsmanship he learned from his master, Xiao Long Nu."

"Without any other sword skills foundation, he started practicing at the age of 12."

"His sword movements should be the same as his master's, less masculine and more feminine."

"After all, the person he was imitating was just a woman, and the Jade Girl Sword Technique was originally created and practiced by women."

"The name of the move doesn't have any masculine appeal."

"Mulan shoots back, flowers and willows are brushed, eyebrows are painted with colored pens, eyebrows are raised, small garden chrysanthemums, jade bracelets are worn on fair wrists, and the cold moon peeks at people..."

Old Master Jin at the side was also listening quietly. Seeing Zhang Yuan easily recite the "Jade Girl Sword Technique" moves he designed, he thought that this new Yang Guo was at least serious and had done a lot of homework.

And there is some truth to what he says.

Yang Guo had no basic knowledge of swordsmanship and learned it all from Xiaolongnu. It was logical that his movements should be based on his master's imagination.

"Also, the character of Yang Guo actually grows and changes a lot in this story."

"From being a naughty boy to being unruly as an adult, and finally becoming a chivalrous man with a strong sense of justice, the character has a transformation process."

“So I think this transformation should also be reflected in the actions.

After all, the body is the carrier of the soul, and when the soul changes, the body should change with it."

“So I thought, at the beginning, his movements were soft and yin, flexible and light.”

"And as time goes on, he should become more masculine and majestic, especially after obtaining the Black Iron Heavy Sword."

"This is the progression of action scenes I designed for the character."

"Shooting this way will also allow for a better contrast between the fighting scenes before and after."

Zhao Jian nodded vigorously.

This guy is not only thoughtful, but also considers the shooting effects of character changes.

The crew also considered this in the action design, but they were not as meticulous and serious as he was, and did not delve into the character's experience.

"So that's how it is. Thank you for your concern." Zhao Jian showed a curious look.

"So you practiced with Xiao Long Nu in advance?"

After all, he had already noticed that Zhang Yuan's movements were slightly feminine.

"No, I asked Zhao Xinxin, who plays Hong Lingbo, to practice with me. I asked her to practice sword skills with me every night."

Practicing swordplay with the girls every night... Liu Qianqian was listening silently.

And often cast admiring glances at me.

Wow, he is so awesome.

Not only is he good at fighting, but he can also design his own moves.

But when he heard Zhao Xunxun's name, he widened his eyes.

"Then why don't you just come to me."

"You've learned from me."

"Uh..." Zhang Yuan was stunned. He couldn't tell the truth.

Your level is too low. I’m afraid that I will ruin myself while practicing.

"You've been training hard during the day, and I'm afraid you'll be tired."

"Oh, hehe." This explanation was recognized by the other party, and Xiaolongnu showed a satisfied smile.

This guy is easy to please.

He sought out Zhao Xinxin to practice with, firstly because her level was high enough, and secondly because Zhao Xinxin was Liu Qianqian's sparring partner and knew her moves best.

Zhang Yuan discovered on the first day of training that Liu Qianqian's force-generating technique when dancing with a sword actually came from dance rather than martial arts.

So he deliberately imitated her in this aspect to make the movements look similar to hers and more coordinated.

So when the two of them were dancing with swords just now, their movements looked very harmonious.

That's why Liu Xiaoli was in a daze just now, thinking that she had a new daughter.

Martial arts director Zhao Jian was very satisfied with Zhang Yuan's attitude and efforts, so he naturally praised him continuously.

The audience may not be able to see such in-depth content, but whether the actors do it or not is another matter.

You can't just mess around just because others can't see it, you still have to maintain a professional attitude.

Yu Min on the side was sucking her teeth.

This kid is always disobedient, but he always manages to come up with a suitable solution...so annoying!

"Okay, let's do this."

"Xixi, please move faster."

"Zhang Yuan, just cooperate with her."

"clear."

"Don't worry, I'll just follow your pace." Zhang Yuan said seriously, holding the sword on one hand.

"okay."

Liu Qianqian smiled and glanced sideways at Yang Guo, feeling a strong sense of security rising in her heart.

"Mr. Jin, what do you think?"

At this moment, the bearded man came to the old man with reporters and media.

"Our Yang Guo is quite smart and serious."

"It is very rare that he can make reasonable creations based on the original characters."

Mr. Jin half-spoken his thoughts half-sincerely.

"Okay, as long as you agree."

The bearded man looked smiling.

"Although this guy is difficult to deal with, he really makes me proud!"
