Preface
Recently, with the release of the "Fox Demon Little Red Lady" trilogy and trailer, the most popular complaint among netizens is "The Fox Demon Little Red Lady" starring Yang Mi and Gong Jun.
"Fox Demon Little Red Lady Moon Red Chapter" is Yang Mi's second costume fairy drama after a lapse of seven years after "The Legend of Sword and Fairy III", "Ancient Sword Strange Tan" and "Three Lives and Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms".
Based on the comic of the same name, "Fox Demon Little Red Lady Moon Red Chapter" mainly tells the story of Tu Shan Honghong, the king of Tushan Fox Demon, and Dongfang Yue, the rising star of the One Qi Dao Alliance, who met and met each other and fell in love.
So let's analyze how this drama is from various angles?
Traditional routines
The homogenization of the current Xianxia drama is too serious, and the slightly better thing about "The Fox Demon Little Red Lady Moon Red Chapter" is that the male and female protagonists are set in opposite directions.
The heroine Tu Shan Honghong is the leader of the Demon Alliance, and she only has peace with the six domains and shemales in her heart, while the male protagonist Dongfang Yue is full of heroines.
Except for here, the rest is similar to the previous patterned dramas, it is still "a fairy puppet dressed in fairy", and it is all love and love.
Synopsis
At that time, the young male protagonist Dongfang Yue was being hunted and killed, and in order to survive, he ran to Tushan.
As the heroine Tu Shan walked out, followed by the sentence "Tu Shan, I covered, understand?", the classic scene of the original work reappeared.
After that, Tu Shan Honghong rescued Dongfang Yue and left him in Tu Mountain, accompanied him to practice, and taught him the spells of the fox clan.
After so many years of getting along, Dongfang Yue gradually fell in love with Tu Shan Honghong.
Or when Tu Shan Honghong rescued the male protagonist for the first time, he recognized his life.
The male protagonist who realized his heart was thinking about how to confess to his beloved.
So on the day of Qixi Festival, Dongfang Yue prepared a romantic confession ceremony.
At that time, Tu Shan Honghong had already realized Dongfang Yue's love, but because she accidentally killed her savior when she was a child, Tu Shan Honghong had never been able to forgive herself, so she had no time to take care of it.
Although her heart has already been touched when she gets along with Dongfang Yue, she only has six domains in her heart, and love is insignificant to her.
So when Dongfang Yue was happily preparing to confess, Tu Shan Honghong deliberately let him know about it and understand the importance of the life-saving benefactor in Tu Shan Honghong's heart.
Dongfang Yue realized that Tu Shan Honghong only wanted to fulfill his benefactor's last wish, "Shemale Peace".
So in order to protect his beloved and realize Tu Shanhonghong's dream of wanting a ladyboy to live in peace, he was forced to part ways with Tu Shanhonghong.
After leaving Tu Shan, Dongfang Yue joined the One Qi Dao Alliance, worked hard to improve his strength, and was later promoted to the leader of the One Qi Dao Alliance, becoming the strongest person in the Dao Realm.
While making a name for himself, he also kept in mind the beliefs of his beloved, and did his best to stop the fight between demons.
After the riots in the Six Domains, Shi Ji took advantage of the chaos to provoke the contradictions between the two clans, the two clans fought, and the conflicts between the demons continued.
In order to lure out Shi Ji, Dongfang Yue and Tu Shan Honghong designed and pretended to duel, but who knew that they were attacked by Shi Ji and Tu Shan Honghong was seriously injured.
Dongfang Yue gave up his Dongfang spiritual blood to protect her, but he also became gray-haired and died soon.
Seeing Dongfang Yue falling in his arms, Tu Shan Honghong suddenly realized that he had already fallen in love with Dongfang Yue.
"The power of the fox demon comes from the most affectionate, where the love goes, and where the power is born."
Tu Shanhonghong's demon power increased greatly, and he defeated Shi Ji in one fell swoop.
At this time, Tu Shan Honghong finally faced his heart, and set a reincarnation relationship with Dongfang Yue under the bitter love tree, and made an appointment to meet in the next life.
Dongfang Yue has put his whole life on Tu Shanhonghong's body.
Make-up part
Judging from the makeup photos sent by the official blog, although Yang Mi is more suitable in appearance, he looks lacking the domineering and cold charm of Tu Shan Honghong as the leader of the Demon Alliance, "the first person in Tu Shan".
Just looking at this pretend, it only highlights Yang Mi's charm, and the pretending seriously deviates from the character of Tu Shanhonghong.
It's more like a seductive fox demon, rather than what a superior like Tu Shan Honghong should be.
In the play, Yang Mi retains the eight-character bangs in "Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms", and this hairstyle actually highlights her hairline even more.
Looking at Yang Mi's appearance in "The Legend of Sword and Fairy III", he used jade-colored beads to decorate his forehead, which completely covered the vacancy on Yang Mi's forehead, and it didn't feel very abrupt.
Seeing the official poster, netizens also fried the pot one after another, how did our domineering Tu Shan Honghong become a charming fox demon.
Looking at Gong Jun again, it doesn't look like Dongfang Yue's unruly and unruly appearance at all.
And the iconic "silly hair" at the beginning of the month of the East has also been replaced with a "high ponytail".
Spit and complain, the plot and pretense are all decided by the crew, and the crew must have been well thought out in the casting of the characters.
After all, Yang Mi has played Qingqiu Bai Qian in "Three Lives, Three Worlds and Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms", and Bai Qian is also a fox demon.
Gong Jun's own personality is similar to that of Dongfang Yue in the early stage, which may also be one of the reasons why the crew chose them as the leading actors.
Acting
Over the years, Yang Mi has also tried many different types of roles, especially the recent hit "Harbin 1944".
After the show was broadcast, there was constant controversy, and Yang Mi's slightly childish face and voice completely made the audience unable to substitute for the suspicious, glamorous and ruthless villain Guan Xue.
This also made many people question Yang Mi's acting skills.
As soon as the trailer of "Fox Demon Little Red Lady Moon Red Chapter" was released, it attracted onlookers from all walks of life, and the super-burning scene made everyone's blood boil.
When everyone was cheering for the famous scene, Yang Mi opened his mouth with a sentence of "understand", which made the audience play instantly, in the original comics, Tu Shan Honghong here did not speak, which seemed more imposing.
Before Gong Jun became popular on the Internet, he filmed a lot of commercials and TV in obscurity, although it did not cause any splash.
It wasn't until that year that Gong Jun gained widespread attention with the role of "Wen Kexing" in the martial arts drama "Shanhe Ling", but Gong Jun's popularity was surprising.
The explosion of "Chen Qing Ling" has made "Mountains and Rivers Order" with the same theme also sought after, and he is used to seeing all kinds of beautiful men in the entertainment industry, Gong Jun's appearance is not particularly amazing, but it looks like he has received more attention from the audience.
Later, Gong Jun also tried to shoot dramas with different themes, such as the legendary costume drama "An Le Biography" starring Di Lieba, but his acting skills in it are unflattering, his emotions are superficial, and his acting relies purely on his mouth.
In "The Fox Demon Little Red Lady Moon Red Chapter", Dongfang Yue learned the fox demon art in Tu Mountain, and in the eyes of others, he is a "demon way", so he will have a ruffian, cool, and eclectic feeling.
Although Gong Jun is more than agile, Gong Jun may be difficult to cope with the complex emotions of Dongfang Yue in the later period.
Age issues
37-year-old Yang Mi and 30-year-old Gong Jun played "sister and brother love" in "Fox Demon Little Red Lady Moon Red Chapter".
Yang Mi has been in the entertainment industry for so many years, and he already has his own life experience, and he can play Tu Shanhonghong, who grew up overnight because of the accidental killing of his life-saving benefactor.
Although Gong Jun is 30 years old, he is still lively and smart, and his personality is still somewhat similar to that of Dongfang Yue in the early stage.
"Comic Drama"
"Classic remakes have always been a double-edged sword."
At that time, when I heard that the famous IP comic "Chess Soul" was going to be adapted, I believe that many fans and Go fans would find it difficult to accept.
However, the crew of "Chess Soul" did not change the plot, but retained the development of the original plot to a great extent by "localizing" the plot.
Although the cast of "Chess Soul" was not strong at that time, Hu Xianxu and Zhang Chao successfully performed through their deep understanding of the roles, allowing the audience to experience the charm of Go.
epilogue
Although "Fox Demon Little Red Lady Moon Red Chapter" was adapted into a TV series, it is impossible to follow the comics as it is, taking into account the public's acceptance.
But as for the super high appearance and popularity of the actors in the play, as long as the plot is not changed and the actors' acting skills are online, they still have the potential to become a hit drama.
Then look forward to Yang Mi and Gong Jun's performance in the play.
