There are very few dramas that allow the audience to wait for 5 years without regrets; There are also very few dramas that can jump on the hot search with only sporadic news and cause a wave of discussions. The popularity value of "Celebrating More Than Years 2", which started tonight, exceeded 32,000, becoming the first drama in the history of Tencent Video to enter the popular club on the day of the broadcast.
Of course, today's Weibo hot search was also slaughtered by "Celebrating More Than Years 2", and #庆余年 drama king # directly topped the topic list.
The results of the network end exploded, and the table end was not far behind. According to Kuyun's real-time ratings data, the peak ratings of "Celebrating More Than Years 2" broke 2.2%, and the data of Maoyan Professional Edition showed that "Celebrating More Than Years 2" was broadcast for 20 minutes, and the real-time popularity topped the Maoyan drama popularity list and Douban real-time hot list.
still remembers the brain holes and literary stalks of the protagonist Fan Xian in the first season, which brought long-lost laughter and a new spectacle experience to the drama market; The three generations of powerful actors from the old, middle and young gathered together, and let us see the wonderful and enjoyable rival scenes. This time, let's follow in the footsteps of Master Xiao Fan again and taste this "celebratory flavor" that is funny and enthusiastic.
The reversal continues, and the burning sensation returns
Fast, burning, and refreshing are the first impressions of "Celebrating More Than Years 2". This season's plot is fast-paced, and there are both clever layout reversals and delicate daily depictions, which are relaxed and rhythmic and just the right setting to attract the audience.
Why is this drama good-looking, because its plot setting is very exquisite. Generally speaking, the audience will have their own prediction of the development of the series, and when chasing this drama, the audience's prediction will always be disappointed, and the series will develop in an unexpected direction. For example, Fan Xian's golden cicada broke out of its shell, and instead of hiding in other places, he turned around and returned to Kyoto, which is a kind of opposite.
Unexpectedly provides a plot hook that pulls the audience's attention, while "Unexpectedly" provides the audience with a cool point to watch.
For example, from the first season, the mediation confrontation between Fan Xian and the prince is the core attraction. How can this wrestling process provide the audience with the greatest sense of coolness? Just like saying that cross talk should be turned over and shaken, this kind of coolness needs multiple reversals to take the lead in providing "unexpected" plot hooks, so that the audience can sweat for Fan Xian, and then through ingenious narrative arrangements, let Fan Xian win a game, in this case, the plot coolness is several times stronger than directly tiling the direct narrative.
For example, in the fourth episode, the second prince, who thought he had grabbed Fan Xian's handle, led people to break into the Baoyue Tower to catch Fan Xian, but unexpectedly, the praying mantis caught the cicada and the yellow finch was behind, and the second prince not only failed to hold Fan Xian's handle to blackmail him, but was countered by the first army, and also lost the few reliance in his hands that could control Fan Xian.
In this confrontation scene, there were many reversals, not to mention that the second prince was dumbfounded, and even the audience was a little confused by this series of reversals. And this multiple reversal will cause a strong prediction gap, and the audience's coolness will become stronger.
In addition to the extreme coolness brought by the reversal, Fan Xian's modern trendy words and brain holes that pop up from time to time are the source of happiness for the audience. "Celebrating More Than Years 2" is full of burning, and the laughter is also full.
Fan Sizhen proudly introduced to his brother that every grass and tree in Baoyuelou belonged to him, and before the words fell, Fan Xian, who was misunderstood that he was the mastermind behind the scenes, punched him hard. Fan Sizhen didn't dare to speak out, and could only say that he was kicked by a donkey.
"Celebrating More Than Years 2", which has been absent for five years, not only maintains the unique brisk atmosphere of the first season of light comedy, but also further consolidates the rhythm, and the relaxed plot development makes the coolness and ignition more intensive, and the audience naturally enjoys watching it more enjoyable.
Of course, this season's pattern is also more far-reaching than the previous season. Fan Xian was only in Nanqing before, but this time he had to face the competition of many forces at home and abroad, and there were a lot of plot hooks left in the first five episodes, and each line was very interesting.
If it is not broken, it will not stand, and Fan Xian will grow up
A good drama must not only let people see the growth of the protagonist, but also the supporting roles. And the biggest feeling of "Celebrating More Than Years 2" is that Fan Xian is different. In the plot of the first five episodes, we saw the rapid growth of a young man.
If Fan Xian in the first season is a "baby" who has just arrived in this world, everything is new to him; Then this season's Fan Xian is an idealist who insists on finding himself after peeking into the cruel truth of this world.
He learned to use a smile to hide something heavier, and the smile became a weapon for Fan Xian to confront the world. Behind the smile is forbearance, the seemingly chic Fan Xian actually cares more and more about the world and those ordinary people who have been tortured by injustice for a long time.
This season's Fan Xian has become more cautious.
In the past, he would joke with Emperor Qing and be clever. But now that he understands his life experience, he also knows that whether it is Emperor Qing or Chen Pingping, they have their own plans. He is no longer the little Fan who will have a big guy come out to help clean up the mess in whatever he does, and he also has someone he wants to protect.
The relationship between him and the "six fathers" has also changed, and those happy days are a thing of the past.
Although Fan Xian already knew that he was the son of Emperor Qing, Ye Qingmei's death made him unable to see through this biological father. Therefore, the first thing he did after returning to Beijing was to ask for guilt in front of Emperor Qing, and tell everything he knew in Northern Qi in exchange for Emperor Qing's trust; For Chen Pingping, Fan Xian's attitude is reserved and tentative. He didn't want to be a pawn of Chen Pingping, but he didn't know whether Chen Pingping was a chess player or another chess piece.
He also became braver. Because of the collision of different ideas, Fan Xian became more and more difficult to endure the world. Because there are more bonds with the people of this world. He met some people who were bullied, so he wanted the world to be different. He must bow down to the game in order to change the world with his own power.
Just like Fan Xian's actor and actor Zhang Ruoyun said, in the face of this cruel world, he wants to try to be more like Ye Qingmei, he is willing to turn himself into a beacon to guide some people, and his modern thinking plays a leading role in front of Wang Qinian and Deng Ziyue.
Of course, the relationship between the bigwigs has also become more intricate, and they are also growing and changing. Especially Emperor Qing and Chen Pingping, who said that he was "Emperor Qing's dog", he was far from being as obedient to Emperor Qing as he seemed.
Fan Xian's style of acting has also changed, in the first season, he was more inclined to play cards, and this season he will achieve his goals in a roundabout way, and he will also unite other forces, such as cooperation with the crown prince Li Chengqian, because the enemy of the enemy is a friend.
Of course, the character of Fan Xian is growing, and his way of dealing with the world has changed, but his core has not changed, he is still the hot-blooded little Fan.
Even if he is in a high position, even if he knows that he is the prince of Qingguo, Fan Xian is different from the magnates of that era, and he has the values that he can't regard human life as a mustard, so the closer he gets to the center of power, the more angry he is at that distorted value.
In addition, screenwriter Wang Ti revealed that this season Fan Xian will change from a "chess piece" to a "chess player", and the growth line of Xiao Fan brings a different taste from playing cards, and the enthusiasm and coolness are doubled. This also laid a reasonable foreshadowing for the finale of the third part.
Why everyone loves "Celebrating More Than Years"
Frankly speaking, this year's drama market has not had this kind of drama chasing for a long time, and it is by no means beautiful to say that "Celebrating More Than Years 2" is a phenomenal hit drama. What's more, there are so many viewers who are willing to wait for it for five years.
So what is the secret of the long tail of "Celebrating More Than Years"? Sincere. In the process of chasing the drama, the audience gets some kind of nourishment or enlightenment from it. "Celebrating More Than Years" is precisely an idealistic hymn dedicated to the audience by screenwriter Wang Ti, director Sun Hao and all the main creators.
Fan Xian is an idealist, and if he wants to, he can live a good life in Gyeongguk that is better than everyone else's. But he had seen what true beauty was. So he didn't choose to be with Qingguo and Guang as Wang Qinian said, but to fight, to fight, to challenge those rules that he was accustomed to but were not correct.
The audience likes "Celebrating More Than Years" because they see themselves in this drama. Each of us is a fan, once high-spirited, with a little talent, a little ambition, and an ambition to change the world.
Fan Xian, to some extent, is a mirror of contemporary young people. He is hot-blooded, brave, persistent, and a typical idealist. Qingguo, on the other hand, has put idealists to the test here, should they persist or give up?
Fan Xian's "transformation" of the world is actually a microcosm of the working life situation of contemporary young people, what should you do when your ideals are incompatible with everything around you? Xiao Fan's choice and persistence is a different kind of encouragement for the audience. For example, after returning to the capital, insiders advised Fan Xian not to go to see Emperor Qing, but he himself was sure that he could only find a way to survive by facing a dead end. This kind of thinking of surviving in a desperate situation is not an inspiration for today's young people.
Faced with the old rules that are difficult to shake, Fan Xian chooses to use a smarter and roundabout way to change it from the inside out. So we who are trapped by reality, should we also look at the predicament we face with a different way of thinking?
As screenwriter Wang Ti said, after Fan Xian has everything and gets great satisfaction on the outside, his inner spirit is constantly suffering from the torture and pain of choice, because he doesn't agree with all this. His body is integrated into this world, and his spirit is still as strong as King Kong, with edges and corners. This is the theme of the second season, the process of a painful soul, in the pain of fusion, gradually awakening and challenging the whole world.
Zhang Ruoyun revealed that Fan Xian will be a lighthouse-like character in this season to influence the people around him. We did find that Wang Qinian's values were invisibly changed by Fan Xian. Such a money-loving person is willing to take out his private money to help his father-in-law redeem his daughter. He obviously knew that what Fan Xian was going to do was a complete subversion, and he also knew the danger behind this matter, but he was still willing to stand by Fan Xian's side without hesitation.
Courage is a kind of power that can be transmitted, Fan Xian has become braver, and the people around him have the power to challenge and change, and this courage has even been passed on to you and me in front of the screen.
"Celebrating More Than Years" is the brain hole of college student Zhang Qing, a wonderful journey of ancient and modern collision, a wonderful painting of the times with a group portrait, and a long poem written for idealists. The youthful spirit and ideals are eternal, and a new crisis is coming. How will Lord Xiao Fan respond, and how will he keep the Tao and righteousness in his heart? I believe that no matter how powerful Emperor Qing's strategy and power are, they can't withstand the brilliance of humanity and virtue.
This May, follow Lord Xiao Fan to break through the difficulties, and fate will never disappoint people with ideals.
