"Lin Yusen, why are you looking at me so warmly?"
"Because I'm your sun, and you're my whole world."
Does this dialogue remind you of a novel you once loved so much? That's right, Gu Man's big IP "The Sun Is Like Me" is finally going to be put on the screen! Recently, it was rumored on the Internet that the show was contacting Li Xian and Tian Xiwei to play the male and female leads, and as soon as the news came out, it immediately detonated the Internet.
The domineering president Lin Yusen is paired with the pure and sweet girl Nie Xiguang? It's a surprising combination, but it's a bit interesting when you think about it! Li Xian's tough temperament and Tian Xiwei's fresh image seem to be able to really create different sparks. However, if you don't believe in melons, let's wait for the official announcement!
Speaking of the novel "The Sun Looks Like Me", I believe many people have good memories. The story tells the story of Nie Xiguang, who has a wealthy but low-key and introverted family, who had an unsuccessful crush on Zhuang Xu, a talented man in college, and sparked love with his boss Lin Yusen after graduation. From campus to workplace, from crush to true love, this novel carries the memories of many people's youth.
And Gu Man's works can be said to be "fragrant and sweet" in film and television. "Shanshan is Coming", "A Smile is Alluring", "Why Sheng Xiaomo", "You Are My Glory", which one does not make the audience call "really fragrant"? Every adaptation can trigger a national upsurge of chasing dramas, and the film and television of "The Sun Like Me" this time will not disappoint fans.
However, in the face of this possible casting, the reactions of netizens can be described as varied. Someone was ecstatic: "Li Xian and Tian Xiwei? This combination is so fresh! Expect their collision. Some people also have reservations: "To be honest, no one can be worthy of Lin Yusen in my heart." Some people also joked: "Is it impossible for internal entertainment to write an original script?"
Indeed, in recent years, the trend of adapting IP works from film and television dramas has become more and more obvious. On the one hand, this reflects the market value of high-quality IP; On the other hand, it also exposes the lack of originality in current film and television creation. However, it is undeniable that putting classic literary works on the screen, so that more people can relive or get acquainted with these stories through images, is also a way of cultural inheritance and innovation.
Returning to the work "The Sun Like Me" itself, the reason why it can move people's hearts is not only because of the sweet love story, but also because it shows the confusion, struggle and transformation of young people in the process of growing up. From campus to workplace, from an ignorant girl to an independent woman, Nie Xiguang's growth path reflects the own experiences of many audiences. The role of Lin Yusen represents the ideal lover image in many people's hearts - excellent, reliable, but gentle and considerate.
If Li Xian really plays Lin Yusen, I believe he will be able to control this role. From the little policeman in "River God" to the game god in "Dear, Loved", and then to the policeman Zhang Dongsheng in "The Hidden Corner", Li Xian has proven his acting skills with his strength. Although Tian Xiwei is still young, her performance in "Menghualu" has also been recognized by many audiences. Although the age gap between this duo is slightly larger, it may be able to create a sense of contrast between the elite in the workplace and the girls who are just starting out in society.
Of course, casting is only the first step in the success of film and television dramas. How to transform the delicate emotions and rich inner drama of the novel into images, and how to make new innovations while retaining the essence of the original work, these are the great challenges faced by the team behind "The Sun Like Me". We look forward to this drama living up to the original work, living up to the audience, and bringing us a wonderful work.
In this era of entertainment information explosion, there is a huge amount of news coming in every day. But I don't know if you have noticed that behind the hot spots we are chasing, they actually reflect the preferences, confusion and pursuits of young people in this era. From the casting controversy to the IP adaptation boom, from the actors' acting skills to script innovation, every topic is worthy of our in-depth consideration.
So, what do you think of the casting of "The Sun Is Like Me"? What do you think Lin Yusen and Nie Xiguang look like? Welcome to leave a message in the comment area, let's chat together, and look forward to the birth of this work together!
