Popular Chinese comics vs. super web dramas: screenwriters face huge pressure on special effects

The live-action version of "Painting Rivers and Lakes: The Bad Guys" is adapted and created based on the popular three-dimensional historical martial arts animation series of the same name. Co-founder and chief director Liu Kuo said that "The Bad Guys" has experienced many twists and turns from animation to live-action drama. It is not easy to overcome technical difficulties in making animation in China; it is not easy to make up for the lack of animation talents; it is even more difficult to resist the strong pressure from the animation market. "The Bad Guys" overcame these difficulties, turned the story into a popular animation, and turned the popular animation into a super web drama. Thanks to your support, we have come step by step from the predicament to the present. The animation has been online since July 2014, with more than 2.5 billion views and 50 million active fans, and the mobile game of the same name developed by the animation has 8 million mobile phone users. Therefore, in the casting of the live-action drama "The Bad Guys", we also fully considered the feelings and suggestions of fans, and strictly cultivated the image of the characters, striving to give everyone a satisfactory answer. Thank you for your support for Ruo Sen's "The Bad Guys" over the years. Because of you, I am grateful.

The director of the super web drama "Painting Rivers and Lakes: The Bad Guys" Wu Baixiao said that because the two-dimensional fans of this drama are too huge and the fans' expectations are very high, it is necessary to break through the creative pattern of traditional martial arts works. Therefore, he tried to create a "2.5-dimensional" concept so that the live-action drama can also retain the visual sense of 3D animation, which also put a lot of pressure on the entire drama's creative team~

Famous screenwriter Rao Jun said that most of his previous works were adapted from text to images, but "Painting Rivers and Lakes: The Bad Guys" was adapted directly from the animation visuals, which is a leap forward for screenwriters. He hopes that this time it can bring a different experience to the audience.

The set visit open to the media today happened to be at Jianlu, one of the famous scenes in the original animation.

The filming scene coincided with the action scene between Li Xingyun and Lu Linxuan played by Zheng Yecheng and Li Chun. The plot of this original animation is that 8 years later, Li Xingyun and Lu Linxuan have grown up. Yang Shuzi received a mysterious letter, and Li Xingyun's life experience was discovered by a mysterious person. Yang Shuzi was afraid that he could no longer protect the two of them by his own strength, so he had to let them enter the world of martial arts. In order to test Li Xingyun and Lu Linxuan, Yang Shuzi deliberately launched a martial arts test.

Director Wang Wei said that why did Li Xingyun and his sister abandon the paradise where they had lived and depended on each other for 8 years? This plot in the live-action drama will have new suspense designs.

Zheng Yecheng, who has a good foundation in martial arts, and Fan Shiqi, who is acting in a costume drama for the first time, joked with each other that the two of them started with action training and were hanging on wires every day to "cultivate their feelings", so they should be the "powerful CP" of this drama.

Li Chun, who has a lot of emotional scenes with Zheng Yecheng and Fan Shiqi in the play, said: "I finally played a silly and innocent girl!"

At the event, Zheng Yecheng and Fan Shiqi respectively demonstrated their skills in flirting with the "goddesses" in their minds, perfectly interpreting the role of flower protectors from actions to expressions.

Cai Wenjing, who appeared in a blue dress, practiced martial arts for the play, striving to bring the best Xueer to everyone. She exclaimed: "I chose the role of Ji Ruxue this time to prove that I can also be a goddess." The feeling of a two-dimensional beautiful girl is bursting~
