read Gu Long 's essay collection "Who Will Cheers to Me" and found a very interesting article called "Watch the first episode of " Xiao Li Flying Dagger ".
's entire article is divided into three parts. The first part is called "TV, friends, and wine", the second part is called "Xiao Li and Flying Dagger", and the third part is called "A little feeling, not written yet".
"Who Will Cheers to Me" was published after Gu Long's death, and his friends compiled the essays and prefaces he wrote during his lifetime into a book. The content of the book includes memories of the past, thoughts on life, insights into martial arts novels, food he ate, etc. Including the general order, there are a total of fifty-two articles. The title of the book comes from the first sentence at the beginning of the general preface, "Who will toast me?"
Among the fifty-two articles, "Watch the first episode of "Little Li Flying Knife"" is the most eye-catching and dazzling. This is also the only chapter in this book that talks about a martial arts character. One martial arts character can be taken out separately, and a work can be written into an independent chapter. It can be seen that the character in Gu Long's mind is worthy of this work.
Gu Long's " Passionate Swordsman Relentless Sword " was serialized in the Hong Kong martial arts world in 1968. The emergence of this novel suddenly pushed Gu Long's status to the peak. Since then, Gu Long has become a martial arts master who side by side with Jin Yong. The honor and fame and fortune brought by this novel naturally made Gu Long very happy, so Gu Long was particularly in love with this novel. It is said that Gu Long had to read this work that made him famous every day in his later years of his life.
"The Swordsman of the Passionate Sword" was adapted into a TV series in 1974, and was filmed by director Zhang Zongrong into a 43-episode Taiwanese series. The series is called "Hero List", which was broadcast on Huashi , and its premiere is December 11. Gu Long was extremely excited when his beloved work was adapted into a TV series. So on the night of the premiere, Gu Long couldn't hide his excitement and invited a lot of friends to come and enjoy his pinnacle work together.
And everyone declared in advance that they would never drink. "Before 11 o'clock, everyone doesn't drink alcohol. Whoever drinks will be a turtle." Because drinking alcohol will not only affect judgment, but also affect appreciation. It is so serious and so ready to fight, which shows that everyone, including Gu Long, is looking forward to this work.
But, the premiere was too late, and everyone was really anxious and bored, so they started drinking. By 10:00 and 3:00, everyone became a turtle. The drunk people still remember the upcoming "Little Li Flying Knife" and who is the turtle.
Gu Long looked at the drunk people and was so angry that he was so angry that he didn't watch "Little Li Flying Dagger" at my house. Oh, I'm so angry." Gu Long, who couldn't help but took a friend with a good temper, grabbed him and asked him fiercely: "Why did you turn off the TV? Why didn't you watch "Little Li Flying Dagger"?"
Gu Long was so fierce that his friend was so scared that he woke up. He looked at Gu Long with a surprised and apologetic look, and asked in a confused manner, "Do you dare to say that the show we just watched was "Little Li Flying Dagger"?" Gu Long did not answer, he was almost angry to death. Gu Long has always been a generous person. He is so angry that he attaches great importance to "Little Li Flying Dagger". Unfortunately, how could these so-called friends, wine and meat friends, understand Gu Long’s mood? No wonder Gu Long is still lonely after becoming famous. What he lacks is not friends, but soulmates who understand him. It is hard to find a confidant, so he tried his best to drink to temporarily get rid of his inner loneliness.
