The TV series "Tian Gengji" is scheduled for October 14 and will be exclusively launched on iQiyi. Although the schedule has not yet been officially announced, the show has launched the audience reservation mode on iQiyi. Starring Zeng Shunxi and Tian Xiwei, this drama tells the story of a pair of male and female protagonists who cultivated and became rich in the countryside of the Song Dynasty.
The theme of "Tian Gengji" is very novel and makes the audience's eyes shine. While the story may still be about the love affair of the male and female protagonists, there are interesting changes in both the background and the plot. This farmland background may attract the attention of many young viewers.
The plot is roughly summarized as follows: the modern girl Lian Man'er travels to the ancient countryside and meets the mysterious young man Shen Nuo. Together, they fight against their annoying relatives, plowing the fields and doing business, getting rich while gradually falling in love. However, after Lian Man'er learned Shen Nuo's true identity, she faced a huge challenge, where will their love go...
This kind of story of modern women traveling to ancient times usually stems from the idea of online novels. "Tian Gengji" is adapted from the online novel "Reborn Small Landowner", and the original novel is mainly aimed at female readers. The story satisfies the interest of female audiences well.
In the story, farmland is combined with love to create a strong idyllic landscape. This style may particularly appeal to young female audiences in the city. For rural women, they know how hard it is to plow the fields and are therefore less likely to make love in the fields.
Many urban women have fantasies about rural life, but this fantasy is often just part of a short weekend trip. These young viewers may think that in nature, the hero and heroine plow the fields together, harvest together, and grow together, how beautiful it is. "Tian Gengji" may convey this beauty, creating an idyllic scene like a peach blossom source.
The combination of pastoral and love elements of this play, coupled with the heroine's modern thinking, makes the commercial plot in the play also very eye-catching. This is a typical cool drama, the original novel is aimed at female readers, and the TV series is still aimed at the female market as the main target after the adaptation. It cannot be ignored that the screenwriters and directors of "Tian Koki" are women, and they are well aware of the needs of female audiences.
Screenwriter Jin Yuanyuan is responsible for creating this drama, she has written many women's works such as the TV series "Little Female Flowers Don't Give Up", although the reputation is not too good, but the number of views and audience feedback are excellent. Jin Yuanyuan specializes in creating film and television content that appeals to young female audiences.
The director of the play is Hong Ling, a young director who graduated from the Beijing Film Academy with a bachelor's degree in directing. Her film "Pas de Deux Lesson" won the Best Film Award and the Most Favorite Film Award at the 14th YOUKI Children's Film Festival in Austria, and was screened at the Istanbul International Film Festival. Hong Ling's talent has been recognized, and her work has been well received by audiences.
In short, "Tian Koki" will present an ancient farming drama full of novel elements on the TV screen, which will continue to attract the love of young female audiences. Through this work, the audience will have the opportunity to experience the wonderful interweaving of ancient life, love and commerce. It will also be a successful attempt by female creators.
