In 2019, when the audience applauded the rise of the national comic, some netizens chose to dismantle the stage, mocking "in 2015, when "The Return of the Great Sage" was launched, it said that the rise of the national comic was said, and four years later, "The Devil Boy of Nezha" was launched and said that the rise of the national comic was said" .
"Could it be that Guoman is doing sit-ups?"
It is very arrogant to comment, but I also have to admit that the concept of "the rise of national comics" has indeed lasted for four years, and the fundamental reason is that after "The Return of the Great Sage", there was no dark horse to top in time.
During this period, although there were works such as "Big Fish and Begonias" and "Wind Whispering Spell" that were good at the box office, there was always a lack of breath in the word-of-mouth, and it failed to consolidate the new threshold created by "The Return of the Great Sage".
It was not until "Nezha's Devil Boy Descending" broke the record with high word of mouth and high box office that Guoman officially broke away from the "rise" and entered a new glory period of complete trust by the audience, and the box office appeal and market scale tended to be stable.
However, just as the work "The Return of the Great Sage" cannot directly complete the rise, "Nezha's Demon Boy Descending" can give a hammer, and there is a key transitional dark horse in the middle: "White Snake: Origins".
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="59" > dark horse Whitesnake: Origins</h1>
In 2019, the "White Snake: Origins" adapted from folklore based on the light chasing animation was launched during the transition period between the New Year's Day and the Spring Festival file, and it was not the turn of the golden slot, and it encountered internal and external attacks.
Inside there is Bao Bell's "Big" People, hollywood's "Bumblebee", and a Japanese animated film "Fateful Night - Cup of Heaven: Flower of Evil Omens" in the same category.
At that time, the glorious period created by "The Return of the Great Sage" for the national comic had passed, coupled with the lack of power in chasing the light, the "White Snake: Origins" schedule was directly hanged, and the start was very unfavorable.
But super word of mouth can always defeat environmental factors, "White Snake: Origins" excellent ink wind special effects, novel adaptations and love stories that can conquer adult audiences, the strength to harvest a wave of "tap water" to help.
Less than two weeks after its launch, this animated film completed the counterattack of the dark horse, saw the potential of the theater line continue to increase the schedule, and the reputation was stable at 7.5+, which belongs to the "dark horse" standard in the national comic.
The follow-up box office soared all the way to 400 million+, which has been a very considerable achievement in the national comics, but it is also a pity that this work hit the "strongest Spring Festival file", and many viewers lost the right to choose without coming to watch.
When "Whitesnake: Origins" was launched online, the audience that continued to be Amway continued to give this dark horse high praise, and many viewers even brushed up the slogan of "owing Whitesnake a movie ticket".
Some viewers also believe that if "White Snake: Origins" is placed after "Nezha's Demon Boy Descending" or immediately after the launch of "The Return of the Great Sage", this movie may be able to create a national comic box office record.
Missing is missing, and the continuous recognition of the audience is the feedback that "Whitesnake: Origins" needs, and we owe a ticket to this movie, and the producers are also very quick to ask for it, and the efficiency is quite powerful.

"White Snake: Origins" story perspective is placed in xu xian Bai Suzhen's past life, snake catcher Xu Xuan broke the prejudice and fell in love with the snake demon Xiao Bai, and also sacrificed himself for Xiao Bai, in the movie Easter egg, Xu Xuan reincarnated and met Xiao Bai again.
At that time, the audience knew that this IP would have a follow-up, and according to the end of the first film, it should enter the "main line" of bai suzhen and Xu Xian broken bridge encountering, loving each other, and obstructing the fahai.
This is a story that the audience is very familiar with, and the wonderful "White Snake: Origins" makes the audience have certain expectations for the adaptation of the old story, but the producers are very clever, and they directly skip the "positive film" that the audience has already rolled over.
The second part begins with the double snake water flooding the Golden Mountain, Xu Xian Xiaobai's love is like smoke, Fahai suppresses Xiao Bai under the Lei Feng Tower, without Wen Wan's sister White Snake, the beautiful and sassy green snake becomes the core heroine of the movie.
The Fahai in the new story is different from the heart stirred by Xiaoqing in the movie "Green Snake", nor is it like the old TV series that often ignores Xiaoqing's existence, but instead beats her into the Shuluo Illusion (Shuluo City) and the robbery.
The concept of Shura City should be derived from the Shura Path in the six reincarnations, in the traditional setting, monasticism belongs to the existence of good and evil intertwined, good nature, evil in hatred, xiaoqing who entered Shura City is exactly like this.
Judging from the trailer, the Shuluo City in the story is fratricidal, and the characters are fighting all the time, which may be the "robbery" that everyone needs to experience, and Xiao qing's goal is to leave Shuluo City to rescue Xiao Bai.
Not surprisingly, Xiao Qing's growth and transformation in Shuluo City, her story with the masked teenager and the sisterhood between Qing and Bai will be the core themes of the story, and overall it is both novel and diverse than the first part.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="26" > dazzling, beautiful enough, strong enough</h1>
"White Snake 2: Green Snake Robbery", which has the guarantee of word-of-mouth team, also released three major points of view in the trailer.
The most beautiful style: ink and punk
"White Snake: Origins" is a completely ancient story background, but when another work "Nezha Reborn" was launched in this year's Spring Festival file, the Easter egg spoiled "Green Snake Robbery" with urban punk style.
The Shuluo City in the story has been built into a modern city, with high-rise buildings, cars and motorcycles, and "Nezha Reborn" allows the audience to continue the industrial punk that is eye-catching, making the Shuluo field wrestling more powerful.
However, the introduction of industrial style has not diluted the charm of Chinese style, and the few clips in the trailer have shown the rich Chinese characteristics of Shuluo City, and the ink visual effects brought by "White Snake: Origins" have been further continued.
Exquisite design and Chinese style implanted in the soul, stunning and eye-catching, further than "White Snake: Origins", Guoman has basically reassured the audience in terms of technology and aesthetics.
The most dazzling story: classical and modern
Because the concept of ancient and modern time and space reversal is more difficult to present at present, the audience has not seen the story of the combination of classical and modern for a long time, but the creator's brain hole is never ending, and "Green Snake Robbery" solves the obstacle with illusion.
Without experiencing time and space travel, a Shuluo City allows Xiaoqing to complete the classical and modern journey, which has both the charm of classical culture and the style of folklore, and the collision of new culture of modern cities.
On the one hand, Xiao Qing completed the gladiatorial arena-style robbery in Shuluo City, and on the other side, Xiao Qing and Fahai's people, immortals, and demons played, and the two lines were intertwined, making the story more colorful.
The coolest heroine: "beautiful and tragic" Xiaoqing
"White Snake: Origins" has laid the tone of the two heroines, and the sister White Snake is gentle, kind and tolerant, similar to the soul of Zhao Yazhi's version, and is a woman who conforms to traditional aesthetics.
Sister Qing Snake has a neutral personality, will be a desperate bet for Xiao Bai, will also be a shot for Xiao Bai to human beings, her good and evil do not depend on human beauty and ugliness, only in the true feelings, in line with the current popular image of the big heroine.
The concept of the big heroine is still quite rare in the animation theme, and the screenwriter has added the most favored "beautiful and strong" persona to Xiaoqing on this basis, and if it is properly managed, it will be quite favored.
Seven episodes have taken stock of the laws of explosive dramas, and most of the ancient puppet protagonists who have exploded in recent years have beautiful and tragic attributes, such as "Chen Qingling" to Wei Wuxian, and "Liu Li" to Xuanjie and Si Feng.
"Green Snake Robbery" The little snake is forced to enter the Shuluo illusion, this world exists for the sake of robbery, killing and war are the norm, the beautiful sister's grinding and growing in it, from the trailer has shown super appeal.
Xiao Qing also has a strong heart, born for obsession, not succumbing to the doom of the Shuluo Illusion, and the tragic counterattack of Mei Qiang, can he finally defeat Fahai, who interferes with their fate? Spectators will have to wait and see.
I hope that the national comic "Green Snake Robbery", which has the strongest heroine, the most dazzling story and the most beautiful painting style, can make up for the regret of the first part and let the summer audience feel the blood of the "dark horse".
