In 1997, "Dragon" premiered on Hong Kong's TVB Jade Channel. Unexpectedly, after the show was broadcast, it not only achieved very high ratings in Hong Kong and Taiwan, but also created a popularity in the mainland. It is a miracle that 34 TV stations broadcast the same TV series at the same time.
Nowadays, "Dragon" has been remade five times. Why is it that only the 1997 version has always occupied an unshakable position in people's hearts?
In 1995, the movie "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" ignited countless people's martial arts dreams. When the little dragon girl played by Li Ruotong appeared on the stage, she simply amazed the world and the years.
I think Li Guolin is Jiumozhi, and Jiumozhi is Li Guolin.
However, during filming, due to too many fighting scenes, my earlobes were often blown off during filming. Once when I was eating, I thought it was a piece of meat and bit it for a long time without being able to bite it off. I discovered that it turned out to be my prop earlobe.
Speaking of music, I have to mention the theme song "The Hard-to-Recite Sutra"
Some fans joked that after watching "Dragon" countless times, they can master the Eighteen Palms of the Dragon. I learned it, but I still haven’t learned the theme song.
In addition, one of the most critical reasons why the 1997 version of "Dragon" can become an unsurpassed classic is that the martial arts scenes in this drama are brilliant.
Especially when we were young, we would gather in small groups and use the tricks in the play on the way home from school, thinking that we were the upright and unparalleled heroes.
However, when we were young, we didn’t understand the sorrow of love. We just lamented Qiao Feng’s ill-fated fate and Azi’s annoying entanglement.
The years are ruthless and the world is full of vicissitudes. Nowadays, many people born in the 1980s and 1990s have entered their thirties, shouldering the burden of their family and country. They rarely have time to watch a complete TV series or movie, so most of their memories of TV remain in their teenage years. .
In 1966, Mr. Chen Shixiang, who was well versed in Chinese and Western studies, gave his evaluation of "The Eight Parts of the Dragon" in a letter to Jin Yong:
No one is unjust. All emotions are evil.
If you ask for something but don’t get it, no one will be wronged, and all sentient beings will be punished. Tragedy is life.
Outside Yanmen Pass, his eyes were as bright as stars. He originally made an appointment with the beautiful woman to ride horses and fly eagles on the grassland outside the Great Wall. Who knew that in order to avenge his father, he killed his beloved with his own hands. After filling up the cattle and sheep, he made an empty promise, and from then on he was the only one left in the world. Fate is the most unpredictable thing, and no one can escape it.
I am Sir, see you next time!
