In the late 90s of the 20th century, assistant director Hu Mingkai, who had directed films such as "Rising Again" and "Thief Swallow Li San" in Hong Kong, turned his creative focus to Chinese mainland.
He was really lucky, and the first script he got was "Young Bao Qingtian". The play was very popular at the time. Huang Haohua, a screenwriter with nearly 20 years of experience, successfully combined the classical masterpiece "Three Heroes and Five Righteousness" with several well-known foreign mystery comics and detectives** to create a new costume TV series that integrates suspense, inspirational and love elements.
Although after many years, Shoji Shimada, the juggernaut suspected of plagiarism, has publicly responded to the incident, the show's post-airing ratings have indeed reached a new peak.
Hu Mingkai rose to fame in this battle, and he subsequently managed to direct the second and third works, and although the last two episodes were not as word-of-mouth as the previous ones, his work did achieve great success.
Not only does the show contain a series of heart-pounding suspenseful stories, but it also attracts a large number of beauties in particular.
22 years have passed since the first TV series aired, let's review the beautiful characters in these three works together and see which one is the most beautiful under the current aesthetic standards
First work: 1. Ling Chuchu is also known as Li Bingbing.
Li Bingbing and Ren Quan, who played Gongsun Ce, were classmates in college. After graduation, the two collaborated on a number of TV series and commercials, such as "Waiting All the Way", "Youth Out", "Youth Bao Qingtian" and "One Foot in the Country". It is because of this work that they entered the audience's attention and became a popular big star.
It is rumored that in the original script, Gongsun Ce also had a crush on Ling Chuchu, which led to a complex emotional entanglement between Bao, Chu, and Ce. But in the follow-up shooting, Gongsun Ce was arranged with Pang Feiyan as the official match, and a kind of double-arrow emotional bond was formed between Ling Chuchu and Bao Zheng.
In the classic story "Three Heroes and Five Righteousness", Bao Zheng's spouse is a resident of Yinyi Village, and Ling Chuchu's true identity is the same as Bao Zheng's wife.
Chu Chu has excellent martial arts, and whenever Bao Zheng faces danger during the trial, she can bravely stand up and provide him with all-round protection. There are often moments of jealousy and affection between the two, and their relationship is both sweet and sincere. Therefore, when the news came out about the second part that Li Bingbing would no longer appear, the audience immediately felt a sense of loss.
At that time, Li Bingbing was at the peak of her appearance, and her delicate appearance revealed a trace of heroism, which complemented the role she played with the maximum force value.
In the year the series premiered, she and Liu Lin co-starred in the film "Coming Home for the New Year", which won her an award at the Singapore International Film Festival, and since then, she has shifted her focus to the big screen.
A few years later, her younger sister Li Xue became her agent after completing her studies. Since then, she has decided not to get involved in the TV drama market anymore, but to focus on the film field. Later, with her outstanding performance in films such as "The Wind" and "The Ballad of Yunshui", she won many honors such as Baihua, Golden Horse, and Huabiao.
In 2010, she started her own studio and gradually set foot in Hollywood, gradually stepping onto the international stage. Most of her roles in film and television are impressive. Looking back, the TV series she starred in, such as "Youth Bao Qingtian" and "Youth Zhang Sanfeng", are considered very classic works.
2. Liu Yijun, also known as Pang Feiyan.
Although Pang Feiyan played by Liu Yijun is a supporting actress, her popularity is not inferior to Ling Chuchu, and her popularity even greatly exceeds Chu Chu, especially when she quit the entertainment industry early, which has become a legend in everyone's memory.
When Liu Yijun was only 18 years old, she participated in the performance of this play, her acting career was quite independent, she never received a day of acting training, and she had not participated in any film and television projects before that.
However, she has a round and lovely face, and when she laughs, that innocent girlish temperament complements the brutal and eccentric Pang Feiyan.
At that time, the audience's aesthetic concept was no longer as monotonous as it is now, and actors could have big round faces or small melon seed faces, so in this series, a variety of characters appeared. I think the most important thing is that the actors themselves are good-looking. Considering her current appearance, she may receive a lot of complaints when she debuts, which is related to the heroine in "Splendid Stars" next door.
Obviously, Liu Yijun did not choose to enter the entertainment industry, she chose to quit after only shooting a few films. Subsequently, many marketing accounts claimed that she had no chance to shoot, but in fact this statement was not true. Because she is an actor with feelings and loves to chase her dreams, and her career is still going well, what she is doing now is to make the movie a blockbuster. In 2013, the movie "Pink Girl: Lover Run" was officially released. Although many people only know that she sang the theme song for the film, she was actually one of the investors in it. If she wants to participate in the filming, she can arrange a suitable role for herself.
3. Rao Rao, also known as Xiao Ai.
Rao, who has only seven films recorded, made her debut in 1996 but disappeared without a trace after performing "Young Bao Qingtian".
However, it is interesting to note that her creations are not limited to the mainland, but also include a large number of works from TVB. When she first started acting, she starred in a TV series called "Golden Wedding", when she was still a small clerk. Her first work was the TVB version of "Bao Qingtian", starring Dillon and Huang Rihua, and in the unit of "Snow Soul Plum Soul", she played the role of Mei Xiaoshi. Later, she acted in Taiwanese dramas such as "Bao Gong and the Righteous Daughter" and "Dragon Babu", and she also starred in many movies and TV series. After that, she also participated in Hong Kong TV dramas such as "Flying Over the Vicissitudes" and "Jedi Blue Wolf", and it is uncertain whether she is a native of Hong Kong.
In the TV series "Young Bao Qingtian", she plays the character Xiao Ai, an ill-fated woman who has lived in loneliness and helplessness since she was a child, and is mistaken for a wolf girl, and even naughty children pursue her.
She was almost humiliated by the prince of Goryeo, but fortunately, Ling Chuchu skillfully played the female ghost and successfully scared the prince away. In order to save her, he did not hesitate to kill his son, but she died at his hands. After that, she fell deeply in love with Shen Liang. Shen Liang taught her how to read and write, and showed her endless tenderness. She originally thought that she had found a safe haven, but she did not expect that Shen Liang was actually a Khitan, and in the end he ended her life with his own hands.
Her temperament in this drama is completely different from that shown in the TVB version of "Bao Qingtian", giving people a deep and touching impression, especially the bleak ending, which makes the audience unforgettable for a long time.
Fourth, Xie Keke, also known as Changyu.
Chang Yu is a tragic woman whose parents and people were assassinated by four outsiders because of a legend about a treasure. After she and her brother Meng Fang escaped from the brink of death, she had to embark on the path of revenge, so the case of the "Blood Altar" came into being.
If her people hadn't been harmed by the bad guys, she might have lived a carefree life;But if she can let go of her hatred, she may sell all the spices, find a partner she likes, and live a peaceful life, but that's not true.
The plot of these episodes is very scary, and many scenes leave the audience with a childhood shadow, but if you don't consider the plot, Chang Yu's beauty cannot be ignored.
Xie Keke, who played the role, was Stephen Chow's ex-girlfriend in the movie "97 Happy Events", and starred in many Hong Kong movies such as "The Seven Princesses of Lan Kwai Fong" and "Police Network Heroes". In the process of development in the mainland, she collaborated with Ren Quaner in the movie "One Foot in the Country".
She didn't release any work for the next seven to eight years, but she disappeared altogether when she rejoined Zhang Xiaowu's Spring in 2005.
5. A maid named Fatimah Yaqi.
Although the girl only participated in four episodes, she brought a deep shock to many people's childhood.
She is the daughter of a general who was ordered to protect the golden dragon from the king of the Western Regions as he entered the capital, but was robbed by wicked men on the way and eventually encountered mortal danger.
When the girl witnesses her parents die tragically before her eyes, her only motivation for survival is revenge. She only began to rebel after her father was killed. She and her father's men, General Qi, one became a lame father and the other became a mute daughter, and instead of choosing to report to the official, they began to take revenge themselves.
Even though she wasn't an extremely treacherous and ** person, she eventually turned out to be a**. After she was killed, her family sought justice for her, but many people opposed it, and in the end, her father and mother killed her for "killing". Fortunately, Gongsun Ce, Pang Feiyan and others interceded for her and put the main responsibility on the deceased Father Qi, which allowed her to avoid death.
Fatimah Yaqi, formerly known as Wang Yaqi, is a graduate of military arts. She has co-starred with Wu Jing in "Shaolin Warrior King", and has starred in TV series such as "Sister Huani" with stars such as Huang Xiaoming.
In the early years, there was an affair between her and Zhang Tielin, and she described the past with Zhang Tielin in detail on her blog. Today, she is a successful woman with a successful husband and son. Many people believe that she has deep feelings for her father, and she later married Li Zixiong, who is 23 years older than her.
She and Li Zixiong have a child, and now she focuses all her energy on family life, and has not participated in a drama for a long time.
Here's the second part:
6. Fan-Bingbing, also known as the little dragonfly.
After the first work received excellent audience ratings and praise, the producers eagerly began the production of the second part, but unfortunately, the original team could no longer make up the work.
Zhou Jie gave up Bao Zheng's position and was replaced by Lu Yi. After the filming of the second part, the director also looked for him. It should be particularly pointed out that at the beginning of the filming of the first film, the director chose Lu Yi as a partner, but due to Lu Yi's schedule problems, he was unable to participate in the performance;The director invited Wu Qilong again, but Wu Qilong was unwilling to become the black charcoal of society from a handsome young actor, and finally chose Zhou Jie.
In the process of filming the second part, not only did Bao Zheng's role change, but the heroine of the first part, Li Bingbing, was also unable to continue to play due to taking over other works, and Bao Zheng's official supporting role was replaced by Li Bingbing and Fan Bingbing.
At that time, Fan Ye's performance had not yet reached the top level, and she first emerged by playing the role of a maid in TV series such as "Huanzhu Gege" and "Xiao Li Flying Knife". However, her beauty and aura have made her a presence to be reckoned with.
With her lively, cute, witty and playful qualities, Little Dragonfly has successfully created a dynamic and three-dimensional character. Her voice is sweet and beautiful, her acting skills are also excellent, and her image and temperament are impressive. Although many later called her a vase, judging by the completion of Little Dragonfly's performance, she really deserves praise. Nowadays, I see more of the new generation of actresses with flying facial features, and I realize that it is actually more difficult to play such frivolous roles.
In the next few years, Fan Ye shined in the entertainment industry, whether it was in movies or TV series, she performed well, became a leader on the red carpet, and was definitely the top "top stream". But sadly, in her prime, she suffered an accident.
7. Li Hui, also known as Lu Xiangxiang.
In the second work, Gongsun Ce's CP role was replaced by Lu Xiangxiang, played by Stephen Chow's newly signed newcomer Li Hui.
Lu Xiangxiang's role setting is similar to Pang Feiyan in the first part, as a daughter from a wealthy family, she is a little rude and willful, but also maintains her true character. The little princess played in the play has a gentle, gentle, virtuous, and empathetic personality. Her energetic and endearing side is particularly eye-catching, attracting a large number of fans after a show ends.
During that period, I think the two fans on her head were undoubtedly the most beautiful after Xiao Qiang's Lin Shiyin.
Li Hui became the first "star girl", when she was only 19 years old to participate in the performance of this play, she showed a girlish liveliness and cuteness, which is undoubtedly a true portrayal of her.
Unfortunately, after her contract with Stephen Chow's company expired, she didn't find a more suitable role for herself. After many years, she returned to the field of live broadcast under the name of "Lu Xiangxiang" and devoted herself to live broadcast promotion.
8. Zhou Lei, also known as Yan Siniang.
Yan Siniang is not only Feng Zhishui's spouse, but also the lover of Lu Youya, the little dragonfly's father-in-law. The talented Lu Youya was unfortunately framed by Feng Zhishui's brothers and his little minions Chang'an, she relied on wearing indecent clothes to survive, and muttered to herself every day: "There is a wrong, and there is a debtor."
Years later, the little dragonfly finally found her and, with her assistance, cleared the grievances of her stepfather.
Yan Siniang didn't have much appearance time in the play, most of the time she was a "madman" with messy hair and a poor face, but this did not affect Zhou Lei's beauty. In her, we can feel a unique and profound feminine consciousness - her body and spirit are endowed with life meaning and soul power. In particular, the scene where she applied rouge in prison was simply shocking.
Even if he stands on the same front with a beauty like Fan Ye, it is difficult to match it.
Zhou Lei's acting career was quite short, she only participated in four TV series, each of which was very popular, such as "Eighteen-Year-Old Sky", "Spring in Summer" and "Talented Men and Women".
is the third part:
Nine, Qin Li, also known as Xiaoman.
In the cast of the third part, Deng Chao played the role of Bao Zheng, and the role of Gongsun Ce was also replaced by Zhao Yang from Ren Quan in the first two parts, but Shi Xiaolong continued to play the role of Zhanzhao.
The heroine of this play is Xiao Man played by Qin Li, she is ostensibly the little maid of Fengyue Tower, but in fact she is the county lord.
This is Qin Li's first work, and her performance in this drama is slightly insufficient, whether it is popularity or appearance, she cannot be compared with Bingbing in the first two parts. As a result, many viewers felt that she appeared redundant in this role.
She is undoubtedly one of the most unknown heroines, who did not have much of a great performance in the years that followed, but now she has transformed into a producer.
10. A small kite named Yang Rong.
The little kite played by Yang Rong was originally a little **, and she disguised herself as the county lord as soon as she appeared, but as time went by, her identity became more mysterious and unavoidable, and she lied as soon as she opened her mouth.
Despite this, the dispute between her and Gongsun Ce became the laughing stock of the show, and the popularity of the pair of deputy CPs even surpassed that of the male and female protagonists.
With her beauty and wit, Yang Rong successfully performed the kind of little ** who loves to run trains. When she first entered the audience's sight, she disguised herself as the county lord, showing everyone's dignified and generous atmosphere. Subsequently, she becomes quirky and playful again, both of which are excellent.
It must be admitted that Yang Rong has shown solid acting skills since her girlhood, and her flowering period is quite long-lasting, and Gongsun Ce has now become a mature uncle, so she has not violated the harmony when playing the role of a girl.
Ten. 1. Han Xiao, also known as Xiao Ruoshui.
Xiao Ruoshui was originally an innocent and immaculate young woman, which completely matched her name. From an early age, she was regarded as the jewel of her palms by her parents, who wanted her to be a smart, brave, beautiful and compassionate girl. However, since she is the protector of Tianmang, she has to transform herself from a snow-lotus-like woman in the Tianshan Mountains into a murderous **. Until then, she was just an ordinary girl, there was nothing mysterious or strange about her, she had never treated anyone else as a passerby, and even she didn't know why she was doing such a thing. After taking the lives of others, she will continue to maintain her innocence and romance, like a person who makes no fuss about nothing.
Although it looks innocent and flawless on the outside, its inner psychological endurance is terrifying.
Her image is extremely attractive, dressed in crisp white clothes, dancing and singing gracefully in the desert in red cloth, and the whole picture is unbelievably beautiful.
Han Xiao, who plays this role, is extremely malleable, and you can be sure that she is still the Fire Ghost King in "Fairy Sword".
Ten. Second, a little raccoon dog named Yang Lixiao.
In the second work, the director arranges for Zhan Zhao to have an official spouse, Fang Fang, who was originally the princess of the tribe and eventually returns to the tribe to continue her duties.
In the third work, Tanuki arranged for him is actually a young ninja from Japan, who has to return to take on the responsibility due to the tragic death of her master and master.
Although they are all BE, Shi Xiaolong and this group of girls interpret this innocent first love very well, making the audience feel a heartbeat even through the screen.
The actor Yang Lixiao, who plays Xiaolixi, has changed her name to Yang Yunxi, and she is still very active in the entertainment industry, but like many child stars, she has also suffered ups and downs in her career.
In addition to the 12 beauties mentioned earlier, Ye Tong played the childhood dragonfly and Zheng Liang played Fangfang, they are both very beautiful characters. However, these are not the cute little dragonflies in "Little Times", but the little dragonflies who played the "little princess" in the first and second parts. Even the girls who played the maids for the little dragonfly in the second part, their appearance is quite high.
In your heart, who has left the deepest impression on you?
