After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

After the successive popularity of several good dramas, the creation of TV series has also begun to develop in a more advanced and realistic direction. It's just that this storm seems to only exist in period dramas and modern dramas, and has not yet blown into the field of costume dramas.

The audience suffers from the absence of a real historical drama for a long time.

But the broadcast of "The World is Long" is a special surprise - it is the taste of a long-lost historical drama!

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

This drama does not talk about love, but focuses the camera on the banks of the Yellow River during the Kangxi period, telling the life of a generation of water ministers Jin Fu and Chen Xuan.

In the play, there is not only the roar of the Yellow River, but also the silent war of the court, and the blood of the Chinese sons and daughters, which is far-reaching and thought-provoking.

The show broadcast 5 episodes, the results are good, the ratings premiere ranked first, even if it encountered Saturday night's variety show night can only broadcast one episode, there are still many viewers for it, the ratings are steadily ranked second, after the resumption of two episodes of simulcast, it returned to the first place, won the first place for the second time, and achieved reverse growth in ratings.

The reason is still because of the excellent quality.

First, uncover a little-known past of water management

In today's Qingyan Garden in Huai'an, Jiangsu, there is a bronze statue of the person carved by Jin Fu.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

The people erected a statue here to praise his work in governing the Yellow River.

Some people may wonder that Jin Fu is a native of Liaoning, and he governs the Yellow River, so what does it have to do with the Jianghuai region.

In fact, this has to start with a heavy rain in the fifteenth year of the Kangxi Dynasty.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

In the summer of the fifteenth year of the Kangxi Dynasty, heavy rains continued for days, and the water level of the Yellow River only rose, and at that time the Yellow River had not yet been rerouted, and the estuary was located in the area of today's Jianghuai.

The ferocious water of the Yellow River slammed into the precarious dikes, causing hundreds of dikes in the lower reaches of the Yellow River to burst, causing flooding and making life difficult for the people.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

However, more terrible than natural disasters, there are man-made disasters.

When the news of the flood reached the Forbidden City, the Kangxi Emperor immediately sent grain money and asked the provincial river officials to organize military and civilian emergency repairs to the dam.

It is said that it is a military and a civilian, but on the bank of the Yellow River, shirtless, soaked by the rain and river water, only the people.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

In those days, there was no cement concrete or flood protection belt, so everyone had to trap sand and gravel in vines to block the breach.

The flood is monstrous, and how can mortals be enemies, in the face of the mighty momentum, wave after wave of the flood peak, some people retreat, and they have thrown away their work and run to the hinterland.

At this time, an official wearing a crowned robe came retrograde with officers and soldiers, and confessed his identity - Jin Fu, the governor of Anhui Province.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

The office of river officer is in charge of water conservancy, and the inspector is to protect the people's livelihood, each performing his or her own duties.

So how could Jin Fu, who was the governor of Anhui, come to meddle in the affairs of the Yellow River?

It turned out that he was on patrol on orders, but found that the people were fleeing back, and there was no officer or soldier on the Yellow River, leaving only the people to block the river with their lives.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

Seeing this scene, Jin Fu took the lead and filled the vacancy of the fleeing people with the officers and soldiers, and the practice of taking the lead also lifted the morale of the army, so that the people who wanted to flee returned to their positions one after another, and worked together to carry a wave of floods.

Jin Fu inquired carefully, knowing that the river official was greedy for life and afraid of death, and seeing the rapid momentum of the flood, he had already fled.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

Seeing this scene, Jin Fuli's sword was unsheathed, a sword was thrown into the mud, and he swore an oath: "Tell everyone, the new river official is coming, and he will not run to my grandmother's house again." ”

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

He actually took the initiative to assume the responsibility of the river officer.

However, what is even more heinous is that the grain and wages distributed by the imperial court to fight the flood have been exploited at every level, and not a single penny has fallen into the hands of these people who fought with their lives and the water of the Yellow River.

Every day people are swept away by the flood, but these people do not receive money before they die, and they have no burial expenses after death.

And most of this money, which should have belonged to the people, fell into the pockets of Wang Guangyu, the governor of the river.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

The corruption was discovered by his colleagues, and Wang Guangyu's first thought was not to mend the sheep and spit out the stolen money, but to send his master with a thousand years of ginseng to find it, hoping to let Jin Fu join him in the filth.

Jin Fu did not eat this set, summoned the head of the migrant workers, pointed to the master and said: This was sent by Governor Wang to comfort everyone, and the mountain ginseng took a large cauldron and stewed everyone to drink together, and Governor Wang sent the money and silver. It was to force him to come forward.

Wang Guangyu saw that Jin Fu was soft and came hard without eating, and the next day he really came with a cartload of wooden boxes, but not to give money, but to ask about sin.

It turned out that due to the rapid flood, seeing that the river dam was not safe, the situation was urgent, and Jin Fu ordered people to blow up the dike and release the flood without notification.

And this matter became Wang Guangyu's handle to pinch Jin Fu, carrying the Wang Ming banner and the monk Fang Baojian to question Jin Fu and ask him to apologize for his sin.

Wang Guangyu's action of biting back annoyed the people, and everyone stepped forward to grab the money themselves, and opened the box to see where there was any silver, but it was just an empty city plan by Wang Guangyu.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

The people were furious, seeing that they were about to revolt, the flood peak struck, and the monstrous flood poured out of the dam, scattering everyone, Wang Guangyu escaped, but Jin Fu's whereabouts were unknown.

This result happened to hit Wang Guangyu's hands, and he used him as his scapegoat, accusing Jin Fu of embezzlement and lawlessness, and embezzlement of the people's food.

Kangxi looked angry and demanded a comprehensive search for Jin Fu, living to see people, and finding the whip corpse when he died.

However, Wang Guangyuqi missed it, and his evil deeds had already caused dissatisfaction among state and county officials in the Jianghuai area, and they all wrote to impeach.

Wang Guangyu originally thought that he was backed by the powerful minister Suo Etu, and most of the embezzled grain and wages were also given to Suo Xiang, and he would be safe, but he did not know that the East Window incident occurred, and Suo Etu, who was afraid that he would be involved, became the first person to ask for his life.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

Suoetu sent his henchmen to send Wang Guangyu a package of poison, threatening his family's lives to commit suicide by poisoning.

In order to protect the safety of his wife and daughter, the cunning Wang Guangyu left a trick before he died, and handed over the accounts of many years to his daughter before taking poison.

On the other side, Jin Fu, who was swept away by the river, was saved by the county official Yu Zhenjia downstream, but at this time, Jin Fu had become a prisoner wanted by everyone.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

When Yu Zhenjia discovered him, he escorted him to Beijing to accept Kangxi's thunderous wrath.

Along the way, Yu Zhenjia found that Jin Fu was not a person who filled his own pockets and bullied the people, even with shackles, he was still reading the book of water treatment, reading the exquisite method of water control, and said that even if he was stabbed to death this time, he would dedicate the book to the emperor, so that later people could use this method to govern the Yellow River.

And this trip to Beijing, Jin Fu also had an unexpected joy.

On the way, he and Yu Zhenjia found someone holding a stone into the Yellow River, thinking that it was a person who was asking for death, and hurriedly ordered someone to rescue him, but the person who did not want to go into the water to save people almost drowned in the rough Yellow River, but was saved by the person who lifted the stone.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

This person's name is Chen Xuan, who claims to be the reincarnation of Hebo, with excellent water properties and specialized in water control, and he entered the water to measure the flow rate of the Yellow River.

During the conversation, Jin Fu realized that the book of water control that he had read along the way was from Chen Xuan's hand.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

However, when Jin Fu said that he planned to dedicate the book to the emperor, Chen Xuan rejected Jin Fu on the grounds that it was written by him at a young age to defraud money.

However, what Chen Xun didn't know was that the person in front of him was his own Bole, and in the rest of his life, his fate was constantly linked to Jin Fu and the Yellow River Water.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

In the first section of water treatment, you can see the extraordinary nature of "The Long River of the World".

In just a few episodes, the severity of the flooding of the Yellow River, the corrupt style of the imperial court, the image of Jin Fu as an official and a clean and honest official, and Chen Xuan's talent for water management were all clearly explained.

The key is that the plot has ups and downs and twists, and when you think that Jin Fu's handsome appearance will cure Wang Guangyu, he was framed and imprisoned. And you think that when he died nine lifetimes, he was desperate to live and meet wizards on the road.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

A scene makes history vivid and interesting, making people want to watch it again.

Second, tell about an undercurrent and treacherous court dispute

In addition to talking about water management, "The Long River of the World" also presents the way of being an official.

There are clean officials and corrupt officials in this drama, but there are no stupid officials, and everyone is very shrewd in their hearts.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

When the powerful minister Nalan Mingzhu sent the emperor a flood, he obviously came with an umbrella, but before entering the house, he pushed the umbrella in the hands of his entourage, circled in the rain, and wet his clothes, before he ran to the emperor with a rolling belt and panting, and molded himself into a wise minister who rushed for the people every day.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

The courtiers acted in front of the emperor, and the emperor would draw flatbread for the courtiers.

Suo Etu learned that Wang Guangyu wanted to kill him quickly, and asked the emperor to order that he be directly killed in his place on the grounds that he would not kill the common people, and there was no need to bring him to the capital for trial.

Pearl insisted on asking the cause of the matter before convicting.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

The emperor did not want to kill Wang Guangyu easily, but wanted to put a long line to catch big fish and uproot the forces behind him, but the local officials complained, and not killing was not enough for the common people to be angry.

So he thought of a way to put the matter aside for the time being, and when everyone mentioned it again, Mingzhu was the bad guy, and came forward to intercede for Wang Guangyu in public, and the emperor pretended that Long Yan was furious, and then picked up the matter again, put it down gently, and perfunctory.

For this reason, Kangxi also talked to Mingzhu about the reward, and would give him a yellow horse coat afterwards.

Two scenes, watching the workplace people empathize, isn't this the drama that I and my boss play every day?

A good drama lies in this, talking about the things of the ancients and the truth of today's people.

This kind of court drama is also eye-catching as the turbulent water of the Yellow River.

Third, 6 actors interpret complex human nature

Such a deep and connotative TV series naturally needs good actors to support with good acting skills.

The actors found in "The World is Long" are all useful, and six of them are particularly impressive.

The first one is Huang Zhizhong.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

In the play, Chen Xuan once described the impression that Jin Fu left on him: he was both like a Wen Chen and a military general.

This sentence is a high-level summary of Huang Zhizhong's acting skills.

Jin Fu defended the people on the banks of the Yellow River, and when he confronted Wang Guangyu, he showed his love for the people as a parent official;

When he was talking with Chen Yan in the inn about the way to cure water, the exit was a chapter, and his eyes flashed with interest in new knowledge, which was the reader's book anger.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

These are the embodiments of civil service.

However, in the face of the surging river, he showed a resolute face, and had the courage to face thousands of troops and horses without moving like a mountain.

The boldness he showed when he swore an oath with his sword also made people feel that he was heroic.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

This is again the appearance of military attachés.

Both literary and martial arts are not a small challenge for actors, but Huang Zhizhong did it and brought Chen Xuan's simple line to life.

Just like Chen Xun said, his eyes, his wrinkles, and his gray hair all make people feel that this is the minister of water control who is loved by the people in history.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

The second place is Luo Jin.

Luo Jin played the Kangxi Emperor this time, or the youth version.

As we all know, Kangxi ascended the throne at the age of 8, and he was brought up by Xiaozhuang, and it was not easy for the young emperor to be pro-government, and he needed to know the art of the emperor so that he would not be played by the courtiers.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

So in the play, the Kangxi Emperor is wise.

He will pretend to be angry and talk to Pearl, playing psychological warfare.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

He will often pretend to be profound, so that people can't understand what he is thinking and what opinions he holds about something.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

It can be said that Luo Jin gave the emperor's deep scheming to the performance.

But after all, he is young, and he will also have an undetermined side.

When he hears gossip about his father, he will ask Xiaozhuang, and if he can't ask the truth, he will be aggrieved and quarrel with his grandmother.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

Luo Jin interpreted the true and false sides of a young emperor into three points.

The third place is Liang Guanhua.

To be honest, Tomato Jun did not recognize "Di Renjie" at the first time.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

Not because of the difference in appearance, but because of the difference in eyes.

In "Detective Di Renjie", Liang Guanhua's eyes are sharp and wise, as if he can see through everything and see through people's hearts, and he is a pair of eyes that belong to the detective.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

But in "The World is Long", he changed his face.

As a powerful minister, he is obviously corrupt, but he pretends to be a pig and eats a tiger all day, smiling, and looks harmless to humans and animals.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

Don't let his appearance fool you, this is a murderous master, as long as you get in his way, he can also kill you with a grin.

Many people can only play one role in their lives, but Liang Guanhua is a real drama, and there is no shadow of Di Renjie on his body when he plays Suo Etu.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

The fourth place, let's talk about Xi Meijuan.

Xi Meijuan, who just won the queen crown at the Golden Rooster Awards, once again let people see her good acting skills.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

There are many images of Xiaozhuang on the screen, and there are many classics.

Although Zhuyu is ahead, it turns out that her filial piety has its own distinctive characteristics.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

As a grandmother, he would show pity when he saw Kangxi struggling in imperial politics.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

As the Empress Dowager, she also maintained the sobriety of a politician, and could say to Kangxi that the winner is the king and the defeated is the curse.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

Xi Meijuan's version of Xiaozhuang combines the love of her grandmother and the sharpness of the Empress Dowager, and she plays it very well.

Fifth, it's time to say Gonglei.

Gong Lei played the role of Pearl in the play, and when he first saw this role, he felt that he had a sharp mouth and a monkey cheek, which was different from the appearance of the imaginary minister, but after watching a few episodes, he was deeply impressed by his acting skills.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

Gong Lei plays the role of a comedian in the play, whether it is his interaction with Kangxi or Suo Etu, there is a strong sense of humor.

But his grasp of this humor is just right, so as not to destroy the seriousness of the main drama, and can make people not keep their spirits when watching the play, a bit like the golden oil in the play, making the rhythm of the whole drama more smooth.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

Finally, let's talk about Yin Fang.

Although Yin Fang is 36 years old, he is the youngest of all the leading actors.

The Chen Xuan he played was a bit unprofessional in the eyes of people at the time, because he had not yet taken the test for fame, but he was obsessed with water conservancy.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

As soon as Yin Fang appeared, when he saved the person who went into the water to fish him, he said: "Just like you, you still want to save me?" ”

After speaking, he picked up his clothes and turned his head away, and immediately showed the unruliness of the characters in front of the audience.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

Talking to Jin Fu about the book he wrote, his face did not show smugness, but it showed a joking meaning, which was very in line with the character's personality.

Only such a character can ignore the future of officialdom, devote himself to treating water and boldly speaking in the days to come.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

The wonderful performances of several actors injected vitality and vitality into this drama, and they contributed to the good looks of "The World is Long".

Fourth, usher in a new era of historical dramas

In "The Long River of the World", there are a lot of Easter eggs hidden.

For example, the play mentions the deposition of the Shunzhi Emperor, which is a character that is ignored in film and television dramas.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

Including Kangxi's question of whether Xiaozhuang Shunzhi became a monk or died, this also restored the mystery of Shunzhi in history, and did not give Shunzhi the title of a Hong Yan monk for the sake of drama.

All this reflects the carefulness and care of the crew.

Nowadays, there are many costume dramas, and they do not care about these historical details and truth, and seize every opportunity to joke about history.

After five episodes and winning two ratings firsts, Luo Jin and Huang Zhizhong's court drama is wonderful one after another

Although this approach will attract the interest of the audience, the unwarranted story is rootless duckweed after all, cannot withstand scrutiny, and will eventually be disgusted.

I hope that the hit of "The World is Long" can trigger others in the industry to follow suit, put more attention on the polishing of the script, and bring us more historical dramas.

After ushering in the era of big dramas, I also look forward to ushering in an era of historical dramas.
