Why did Zhao Long change actors in The Romance of the Old Three Kingdoms?

Changing roles in TV series is nothing new. In this case, actors are usually in a hurry. However, in the old version of Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the actors were often changed not because of the schedule of the actors, but because of the schedule of the crew.

The actor who played Zhao Zilong in The Romance of the Three Kingdoms on CCTV changed actors because the crew split up to cut costs.

CCTV's Romance of the Three Kingdoms is 84 episodes long and well-made. According to the attitude of serious work at that time, the shooting progress was very slow, so several crews were adopted in parallel. The whole drama is divided into five units: Competing for the Deer, Battle of Red Cliffs, Fighting in the South and Fighting in the North, and One-third, which are shot by five crews at the same time. After careful observation, you will find that the directors, screenwriters and other creative personnel of each unit are different, which also leads to some directors being good at making literary play, which is better, while some directors are good at making martial arts play, which is better. Therefore, in the choice of actors, except the super protagonists such as Cao Liusun and Zhuge Zhang Guan, as long as other roles cross the unit, it is inevitable to change people, and even some roles with heavy scenes are not spared, such as Zhao Yun, Yuan Shao, Lu Su and Sima Yi. This was caused by the specific situation at that time and it was also an irreparable regret. But if you shoot directly from beginning to end, I'm afraid the whole drama will take ten or eight years, and no one can stand it.

The Old Three Kingdoms was filmed for several years, divided into several groups and filmed in one place, so it was also a helpless move under the shooting conditions at that time to change actors frequently.

The TV series Romance of the Three Kingdoms produced by CCTV 1994 is still a classic TV series, although there are some problems such as lazy fighting scenes and frequent changes of role actors. The CCTV version of Romance of the Three Kingdoms has many features that TV dramas don't have.

First, good aesthetic level and excellent composition ability. We can see that most of these shots are well shot, with beautiful composition, open mind and high spirits. No lens is impossible, but we must have a clear and healthy aesthetic pursuit and a relatively high level of photography and aesthetic cultivation.

Second, deeply understand and show the hero's life realm. Who are the protagonists of the Three Kingdoms? They are emperors and generals, advisers and military commanders. To put it bluntly, it is a group of big men. These people are extroverted and are unlikely to be used to expressing their inner thoughts and temperament with poems and daily conversations like the girls in A Dream of Red Mansions. Then how do they express their temperament and spiritual things? Because most of these people are ambitious, a good way to show their spiritual temperament is to shoot a landscape as high as theirs and full of advanced aesthetic interest, so that heroic pride can be externalized into beautiful scenery and poetic beauty can be internalized into heroic pride. This is really a fusion of inside and outside, and the scene blends. Liu Xie's "Wen Xin Diao Long" has a cloud: "Climbing high is all about feeling, and watching the sea is all about meaning." This is also called.

1994 The CCTV version of Romance of the Three Kingdoms focuses on showing a higher level of heroic feelings and mind than strategic calculation, which makes the audience unconsciously enhance their aesthetic taste and value pursuit-this is the value of excellent plays. I have been fascinated by these magnificent mountains and green waters since I was a child. It is these three countries that have taught me to live poetically. Even if those people are accompanied by swords and swords and shed blood all day, they still have boundless scenery and boundless rivers and mountains around them, not to mention my generation. In this state, how many trivial and subtle troubles have melted into endless picturesque rivers and mountains. It is very important for me to be good at discovering lofty and poetic beauty from the life that has continued to this day.
