On February 10, the TV series "The Unworthy Chitose Adult" announced that it was scheduled for February 14, and on the night of Valentine's Day, iQiyi was launched exclusively. This TV series is co-starring young actors Luo Zheng and Ji Meihan, and tells the story of the "eunuch" and the palace girl in the process of "eating" sweet pet love. It is reasonable to say that a small-cost network drama is not worth noting much attention, but as the theme content of the sweet pet drama, this TV series has actually filmed the content of "eunuch" and "food" as the narrative focus. It can be seen to what extent the current sweet pet drama has been rolled in.
The TV series "Unworthy Chitose Adult" is produced by Xi'an Meilin Cultural Development Co., Ltd. This production company is a subsidiary of Qujiang Film and Television Group. In terms of Qujiang Film and Television, on September 10, 2021, in the name of promoting the TV series "The Unbearable Chitose Adult", the plot synopsis of this TV series was released. It is also in this synopsis that the producer of the play clearly marked the "eunuch" content of this sweet pet drama:
The drama is adapted from Jinjiang's super popular IP, the story is based on the sweet love of "Paper Tiger" and "Taolu King", mainly about Chen Youyou, a ghost horse girl in Fuxian City, who was forced to marry Bai Li, a "great eunuch" who was suspicious and decisive in nature and was known as "Chitose Lord", in order to save her father's life. From the beginning of each other's attack and defense, to the end to warm each other, first married and then love, with sincerity to break the barrier, in Fuxian City staged a ridiculous love story, and strive to create a cool laugh and fly together in the explosive sweet pet drama.
In the plot summary of some information platforms, "The Unbearable Chitose Adult" directly informs the audience that this is a story about "eating":
The play tells the story of Bai Li, who is suspicious and determined to kill, and is known as the "Chitose Lord", and meets Chen Youyou, a ghost horse girl in Fuxian City. In order to save her father's life, she was forced to marry Bai Li, a great eunuch who was highly relied upon by the city lord, as a food pair. From the beginning of each other's attack and defense, to the end to warm each other, first married and then loved, with sincerity to break the barrier, in Fuxian City staged a ridiculous love story.
Such a plot synopsis does make fans cry and laugh. Since the concept of sweet pet drama came to mind three years ago, all kinds of sweet pet dramas can be described as extreme. This time, the perspective of the sweet pet was finally aimed at the content of "eunuch" and "food". Of course, from its official plot synopsis, we can guess that the eunuch played by the male protagonist, and the real eunuch, is just a eunuch like wei Xiaobao. However, this kind of sweet pet drama that falls in love with the "great eunuch" can also be regarded as the ultimate of this type - who would have thought that such a sweet pet love story could still appear in the eunuch group.
According to the official information released by the drama, "The Unbearable Chitose Adult" belongs to the "first batch of selected works of the Aoi Chuang Sub-Account Drama Project". Specific official news messages are as follows:
On August 31 (referring to August 31, 2021), the "Qingchuang Sub-Account Drama Plan" was jointly released by iQIYI and Meilin Culture in Beijing, providing "one-stop" and multi-faceted support for sub-account drama projects, such as funding, production, publicity, broadcasting, and settlement, aiming to help the projects and creators of sub-account dramas, expand the volume of projects, produce more high-quality projects, obtain greater benefits, and hope to use systematic services, large-scale production, and high-quality orientation to promote the high-quality development of the industry. At the first proposal meeting held on the same day, "The Unbearable Chitose Adult" passed the review and became the first batch of selected projects of the "Qingchuang And Account Drama Project".
Judging from the official information, the competition of the Qingchuang sub-account drama plan is still very fierce, and the quality of the plays that can be shortlisted for the plan selection seems to be guaranteed. However, in the face of such an inward-looking sweet pet drama, can this sweet pet drama with a sword and a sharp edge arouse the interest of young female audiences in chasing the drama? As I have written in previous articles, there are really too many sweet pet dramas at present, so many that young female audiences are not enough. Outside of the young female audience, there seems to be no TV series willing to consider it.
In addition, the Yangtze Evening News reported on February 10 (2022) that the web drama "The Unworthy Chitose Adult" was set to cause controversy, and the shape was accused of plagiarizing "Thoughts":
"Reflections" is a domestic original animation series broadcast on Tencent Video since June 14, 2021, in which the male protagonist Jing Xuan caused a lot of discussion at the time due to his delicate painting and handsome appearance, and formed a small fan group. At the beginning of the release of the makeup promotional photos of "The Unbearable Chitose Adult", it was questioned by netizens, the male protagonist's crown and bangs were quite similar to Jingxuan's, and Jingxuan's crown shape was not a common ring-shaped crown in costume idol dramas, but a relatively rare cornice form. ”
As of now, the TV series "Unworthy Chitose Adult" has not responded to the above plagiarism accusations. Based on the current plot synopsis and trailer content, this sweet pet drama is indeed very much in the inner volume. (Text/Ma Qingyun)
