Unexpectedly, there is a big drama that has been urging from this summer to the present.
Suddenly, a spring breeze came overnight, and the broadcast started when it was said that it would start-
16-episode adventure drama, "Return to the Ruins of the South China Sea".
At 18 o'clock tonight, the goose factory airborne three episodes, this time not up the mountain, collectively "went to the sea".
For Pan Yueming's "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" series, the audience's heart is like Hu Bayi, who always says to put away the golden talisman, the more he talks about collecting the mountain, the more he can't put it away, and next time he has a treasure, he wants to continue to touch it.
Looking at the lineup, 6 old acquaintances, the iron triangle composed of Pan Yueming, Zhang Yuqi, and Jiang Chao, plus Tong Lei's big golden teeth, Tang Zhenye's Uncle Ming, and Shu Yaoxuan's Professor Chen.
I'll leave the words here first, as soon as this drama is broadcast, it will be a steady hit.
It's just that the Iron Triangle is on this trip, how many catties and taels are there?
Looking for the dragon and dividing the gold to see the winding mountain, a heavy entanglement is a heavy pass.
Don't wait for the broadcast to start, now I will divide the gold and check the goods.
1. Story: Iron Triangle has become "One Piece", and this time the story is fresh enough
The mountains, rivers, lakes and seas of the motherland have always been fertile ground for adventure stories.
Over the years, the Iron Triangle has been to the Longling Grotto, entered the Yunnan Worm Valley, climbed the snow-capped mountains and fought monsters, but never went to the sea.
In "Return to the Ruins of the South China Sea", it directly expands the adventure territory of the Iron Triangle to the ocean, and exerts the marine thriller elements and imagination to the extreme.
Look at the story.
The timeline of "Return to the Ruins of the South China Sea" takes place in Hu Bayi and Wang Fatzi, who returned from their expedition to Kunlun Shrine and used the dust bead to break the curse of red spots, and are ready to follow Shirley Yang to live in the United States.
Before leaving, Professor Chen, who had picked up a life in "Exquisite Ancient City", set up a banquet to entertain them, hoping that Hu Bayi would make another move to help him go to the South China Sea to find the Qin King's bone mirror that could see through the seven meridians and eight veins of the human body.
This treasure is now at the bottom of the coral spiral and must be salvaged in the deep sea.
Originally, Hu Bayi had already received the gold talisman, but he also needed money to go to the United States, but the three of them still accepted Professor Chen's invitation and went on an expedition to the South China Sea with Uncle Ming, who had been an old "sea wolf" when he was young.
They found the Trident that was well-equipped but no one dared to use it, and met the master and apprentice of Tan Min Ruan Hei, Gu Chai and Duo Ling, and not long after they went to sea, they encountered a huge ghost ship, and after entering the mysterious coral spiral, it was even more strange and strange.
On the night of the full moon, Hu Bayi locked the location of the shipwreck, the sea surface suddenly burst into turbulent waves, the undersea fire was rekindled, and the eye of the ruins was opened.
A group of people were involved in the Guixu Sea Cave together.
If you want to know what will happen next, wait for the episode to start.
Combined with the trailer, let's talk about the four highlights of the series in advance:
The first is the iron triangle "into the sea".
The biggest novelty of the series is to bid farewell to the jungles, deserts, and snow-capped mountains of the previous films, and also bid farewell to the big snakes that cannot be fought in many domestic online adventure films.
Because the main story takes place at sea, both the visual spectacle and the way the Iron Triangle fights have changed dramatically.
For this series, it's also time to dispel the aesthetic fatigue of the audience.
The second is the vigorous marine special effects.
In the trailer, there have been a number of big scenes from the original book:
The sea cave protrudes from the ruins, and the sea hole is isolated from the seawater.
Everyone was in distress at sea, encountering sea monsters, sharks, giant octopuses, and everyone was on the line of life and death.
Beasts that resemble dragons open their mouths to eat, and there are also them.
In short, the special effects that should be there will not be saved. I don't dare to say that it surpasses the level of the previous ones, but compared to the unbearable level of domestic networking, it must be much more stable.
The third is the marine world of "ghost blowing the lamp".
When it comes to adventure and fantasy themes.
The first thing that comes to everyone's mind is to see what big scenes and action scenes there are.
But if I want to say, the most outstanding quality is the fantastical details.
There are no meticulously crafted details. There will be no lifelike worlds.
As soon as the original "Angry Qing Xiangxi" and "Longling Grotto" appeared, they created a unique ghost blowing lantern fantasy universe.
This time, the Iron Triangle not only drove the "ghost ship", but also sailed the ship directly to the bottom of the sea. And the colorful corals of the underwater world, the green and shining yin fire, are even more dreamlike.
This kind of ingenious texture can give birth to an original adventure drama.
Fourth, the fate of the Iron Triangle is suspenseful.
The audience who has chased the "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" series to the present has long been not only to watch the adventure, but to see the ups and downs of the fate of the Iron Triangle.
Although the last part helped the Iron Triangle break through the threshold of life and death, judging from the original work, this time Hu Bayi fell into a new trap.
Because what they finally brought back from the bottom of the sea was not the national treasure-level cultural relic Qin Wang Bone Mirror that Professor Chen wanted them to find, but the priceless Ancient Mirror of Guiru, and they and Professor Chen both fell in love with Sun Xuewu's way.
Although the audience who has read the original book already knows the ending of the story, a good story is one that can make people linger.
2, actor: Pan Yueming has lost weight, the Iron Triangle is reunited, and this time I have the bottom in my heart
A key to allowing the audience to enter the pit again and again is, of course, that the series is unique in China and has always maintained the original cast of the "Iron Triangle".
Starting from "Longling Grotto", when the fourth part was filmed, not only Pan Yueming, Zhang Yuqi, and Jiang Chao were all the original cast, but none of the supporting roles were changed.
In this part, Tang Zhenye still plays Uncle Ming, Tong Lei still plays the big golden tooth, and Professor Chen is Shu Yaoxuan who played all the way from Jin Dong's "Exquisite Ancient City".
The lineup is stable enough to create a stable "ghost blowing the lamp" universe.
Let's start with old acquaintances.
One is the Iron Triangle.
Hu Bayi, played by Pan Yueming, admits that his acting skills are fine, but he has been ridiculed by fans because of his slightly greasy body.
It can be seen from the main drama that this time Pan Yueming has finally lost weight, which will of course make the Hu Bayi he portrayed closer to the original work.
Zhang Yuqi, who has changed from long hair to short hair, has always been the first choice of Shirley Yang in the hearts of drama fans, whether it is a powerful figure or a capable and free temperament, it is indeed difficult to find the second among domestic actresses.
Jiang Chao's Wang Fatzi has always been controversial, because Wang Fatzi in the original book is a brave and powerful team force value ceiling.
Jiang Chao's performance is more focused on funny, but I think this is determined by the difference in the characterization of the novel and the series, the novel can have two peaks of combat power, but the drama needs to distinguish the character functions.
What touched me the most about Jiang Chao was that he was afraid of heights, but a large number of action scenes were overcome, this is a real actor.
The second is an old acquaintance in the supporting role.
In Tang Zhenye's original book Uncle Ming, when he was young, he ran a boat to get rich, and he did all kinds of hard work, and this one he appeared in a purple suit again, and one shot was right.
Shu Yaoxuan played Professor Chen in "Exquisite Ancient City", he was obsessed with inspecting cultural relics and monuments, and was knowledgeable, although he survived in the "Exquisite Ancient City", but he was mentally disordered, and he returned after a long period of cultivation, and the crew found him to play this role is ingenuity in itself.
Write at the end
No matter when, fantasy adventure dramas are a genre that the audience likes very much, and the "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" series was born that year, I thought it would be the beginning of domestic adventure dramas, but I didn't expect it to be the peak.
"Exquisite Ancient City" starring Jin Dong is still considered one of the best "ghost blowing lantern" works.
But what really started the serialization was "Angry Qing Xiangxi".
This drama also contributed two important actors to the Ghost Blowing Lantern series: Pan Yueming, who played Chen's blind man, and Gao Weiguang, who played Partridge Whistle.
From the beginning of "Longling Grotto", the iron triangle was officially formed.
The play also contributed the best supporting cast in the series, and the characters created by Zhou Xiaoou, Hu Ming, and Kaohsiung Ma Daring, Li Chunlai and Elder Chen are the icing on the cake.
The outstanding performance of many characters also makes the originally relatively mediocre story of "Longling Grotto" interesting.
On the contrary, "Yunnan Worm Valley", which has the best reputation in the original work, has greatly affected the word-of-mouth because of the deletion and painting of the villagers' dramas.
And Cai Yuexun's "Kunlun Divine Palace" directed by Cai Yuexun is a bit high and low, especially after the plot enters Luohai City, the score begins to drop.
This "Return to the Ruins of the South China Sea", from the perspective of story, main creator, cast and other configurations, has the potential to turn over.
The key to success or failure is still whether you can create a unique oriental fantasy world.
Why do audiences like the "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" series?
Looting for gold is not the whole reason.
Its magic is actually to take the audience to travel all over the country, to explore the mysterious world, and to appreciate the adventures that are difficult to experience in real life.
It's rare to have a series that doesn't treat IP adaptation as a one-shot deal of consumer feelings.
There are more such series, so that the national drama will not be reduced to an ancient puppet special.
Leave the rest to Audio-Technica.
