Chapter 004: Daddy Love Me Again

Is it that his acting skills are insufficient

Then, a portal of light appeared before him

Moreover, the director may not necessarily want the character of the young emperor to stand out too much, in order to avoid affecting the main storyline and the protagonist

However, with Deng Chao's acting skills, he did not portray the young emperor in a particularly outstanding manner

In Wang Jing's plays, a well-performed antagonist can make a comeback, while a well-performed protagonist naturally garners more applause. However, the supporting characters within the protagonist's group have very limited room for development

Cao Zhengchun and Zhu Wushi are irreconcilable, constantly seeking opportunities to eliminate Hulong Villa. However, in terms of martial arts and influence, he is actually inferior to Zhu Wushi.

This is not an issue with the actors; rather, there is genuinely not much room for development. The role of the young emperor in "The World's Number One" resembles that of a mere tool, only responsible for mediating when Zhu Wushi and Cao Zhengchun are in conflict, and then making a brief appearance at the end

The two classic villain characters, Yan Huang and Zhu Wu, both originate from the hands of Wang Jing.

What else?

However, most of the time, the course of history is actually more important than individual struggle

You have secured the role of the "Number One in the World" young emperor

Yue Guan blinked and chose "Yes"

The formidable villain did not fall at the hands of the protagonist; rather, he was defeated in the realm of love.

Both female protagonists were swiftly eliminated by Jiang Yuyan, a plot typically found only in Japanese dramas. Wang Jing's willingness to shoot such a scene domestically truly reflects his innovative thinking

To be honest, this is quite unconventional; generally speaking, television dramas feature the protagonist defeating the main antagonist

No matter how skilled an actor is, it is impossible to shine in such a setting

Yue looked in the mirror and was stunned by his own handsomeness

"Xuan Character No. 1" Shangguan Haitang, as beautiful as peach and plum blossoms, exceptionally intelligent, proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, as well as medicine, divination, and astrology, is well-versed in all. On ordinary days, she dresses in male attire and presides over the "World's No. 1 Manor," which is filled with talented individuals.

Do I really have such a big face

Thus, it is the roles that limit the actors' scope for expression

In the drama "The World's Number One," he allows Zhu to disregard the invincibility of the world, overwhelming a host of protagonists, yet ultimately becomes entangled in emotional troubles. This grand villainous BOSS, despite committing numerous misdeeds, possesses a remarkably rich character, which makes him more favored by the audience

Yue Guan reviewed the plot of "The World's Number One" once again

The character known as "Yellow Character No. 1" is a rogue from the streets, uneducated yet clever and astute. By chance, he becomes the successor of the "Invincible Rascal" Gu Santong. Once he unleashes his ultimate skill, the "Indestructible Vajra Divine Skill," his entire body transforms into a golden hue, granting him immense strength, fearlessness of water and fire, invulnerability to blades and guns, and immunity to all poisons

At a critical moment, Zhu disregarded the woman who was his only true love, Su Xin, who then stabbed him in the back and chose to take her own life. If she was going to commit suicide, so be it; she even had someone behead her and sent the head to Zhu.

After the light gate, there was actually ... ...

It can be said that Wang Jing is not a director who deliberately vilifies villains; as long as you perform well, even if the character is a villain, he will give you the space to shine.

Ultimately, Zhu Wushi chose to usurp the throne, while his four major disciples all sided with the young emperor. If it had ended there, Zhu Wushi could have still emerged victorious. In this television series, Zhu Wushi's strength is truly formidable, with martial arts unmatched in the world, and his troops are strong and well-equipped. Even if the four main characters joined forces, they would not be a match for Zhu Wushi.

Take "Burning Sun" as an example, the actors in the same group are all powerhouse performers of the highest caliber, yet Deng Chao did not fall short at all, delivering a textbook-level performance

You have the opportunity to personally experience the "Little Emperor of the First Under Heaven"

It is the same in the production team

Without further ado, Deng Chao's acting has always been among the top tier among his peers. As long as he is not directing and acting in his own productions, his performances in films and television series directed by others are consistently of high caliber and always meet a high standard

Shall we begin the experience

Even if Yue Guan portrays the young emperor as the best in the world, as long as the director is not satisfied, no matter how well he performs, the audience will not be able to see it

However, Wang Jing is a very imaginative director; compared to ordinary directors, he is better at grasping the preferences of the audience

Moreover, Jiang Yuyan is even more ruthless than Zhu Wushi. Even though she deeply loves Hua Wuqie, once she confirms that there is no possibility between herself and Hua Wuqie, she is capable of striking decisively.

At that moment, several lines of small text appeared before his eyes

At that time, the political power was held by the chief eunuch of the Eastern Depot, Cao Zhengchun. The ambitious Cao Zhengchun wielded immense power, having perfected his skills in martial arts and boasting unparalleled prowess. He took pride in controlling the Eastern Depot, exerting influence over the court and the populace, forming factions for personal gain, framing loyal officials, and committing all manner of atrocities.

Another martial arts television series directed by him, "Little Fish and Flower No Deficiency," is even more impressive, as it transforms Jiang Yuyan, a female character who initially lacks any martial arts skills, into the ultimate villainous BOSS. Moreover, this female BOSS eliminates all the characters in the series, leaving only the title of the show.

After much consideration, the best approach seems to be to revise the script to give the young emperor more scenes

The little emperor of the Deng Dynasty, it is likely that even Deng himself has forgotten this role

Yue Guan pushed open the light door, and then his heartbeat began to quicken

Upon seeing the head of the person he loved, Zhu was utterly devastated.

"Tianzi No. 1" Duan Tianya, calm and composed, was raised by the Iron-Bold God Marquis since childhood. After learning ninjutsu and "Illusionary Sword" from the "Iga School" in the East, he joined the "Hulong Mountain Villa" and became the leader of the four great spies

Yue Guan does not believe that his acting skills are better than those of his peer, Deng Chao

In domestic television dramas, it can be said that there is no female antagonist more successful than Yan Huang. Here, success refers to being ruthless and resolute, untroubled by emotions, willing to kill when necessary, without hesitation or pretentiousness, capable of liking men but never dependent on them

There is a saying that personal destiny is certainly determined by one's own efforts, but it must also take into account the course of history

Yue Guan is contemplating how to break the deadlock

Moreover, to be frank, although Yue Guan has the advantage of previous experience in performing in dramas and believes his acting skills are quite good, he himself does not believe that his acting is extraordinary.

"Di Zi No. 1" Gui Hai Yi Dao, proud and taciturn, was determined to avenge his father's death, who was killed during the Hundred Refinements at sea when he was young. His swordsmanship is the best in the world

Zhu Wushi used 30 episodes of plot to numb Cao Zhengchun, ultimately capturing him completely. After Cao Zhengchun's death, Hulong Villa lost its restraint, and its power began to expand rapidly. Zhu Wushi also started to reveal his ambitions

Take the play "The World's Number One" as an example. Many years later, what people remember is the formidable and infatuated Iron-Blooded God Marshal Zhu Wushi, the beautiful and charismatic Shangguan Haitang, the devoted Guihai Yidao who ended up with everything, and even the line from Cao Zhengchun of the Eastern Depot, "The Eastern Depot needs talents like you"

The issue is that the young emperor is not considered a villain in "The World's Best"

In fact, the plot of this martial arts drama is quite simple, primarily revolving around the prominent minister of the Ming Dynasty, the Iron-Willed God-Hero Zhu Wushi, who, with his exceptional talent and strategy, established the renowned "Hulong Mountain Manor" to protect the country and ensure the safety of the people. Under his command, there are four major spies known as Tian, Di, Xuan, and Huang, who are also the four main characters of this drama

Very few can be remembered by others

The movies directed by Deng Chao himself are truly poor, while his acting is genuinely good when he performs in others' works
