may be in order to start building momentum for "Langya Bang 3", Hou Hongliang, chairman of Noon Sunshine in 2020, announced that the script has been completed and is expected to be launched in Q2 2024.
In order to prove that "Langya Bang 3" is in progress, there has been gossip in the market for a while, and Noon Sunshine is ready to start this year.
But this so-called preparation has been prepared for four years at once, and there is no official announcement until the "2024 Directors Conference" that has just begun, Kong Sheng, the director of the "Langya Bang" series, was asked about the progress of the play.
He told everyone very entangled that the script of "Langya Bang 3" is being improved, but the filming time has not yet been determined, and the content of "Langya Bang 3" that everyone asked. He also said very succinctly, "Langya Bang 3" is the story of Changling Jun fighting another country in the future.
As a well-known director, there are a lot of uncertainties between his words about his classic series, which always makes people feel that the launch of "Langya Bang 3" will be particularly difficult.
Speaking of "Langya Bang", it can be regarded as a real hit drama, in that era when idol dramas and dramas obviously have audiences and age groups, it has almost broken through the barriers of all audience groups and gained the love of most audiences across the country.
Even if the follow-up sequel to "The Wind of Langya Bang Rises in Changlin" received a lot of complaints at the beginning, it finally got a high score of 8.4 on Douban, which is higher than the score of the two seasons of the current phenomenal costume drama "Celebrating More Than Years".
But it is such a drama, but the start of the third season is extremely difficult, why?
This can be clearly seen from the comment area of "Langya Bang 2", the "Langya Bang" of that year was a complete story from the Qilin genius Mei Changsu although he was sick and weak, and in many difficulties, he supported the new monarch for his own Zhaoxue injustice, from beginning to end.
Such a story, the character story line is full, and there is almost no room for extension, but because of the dividends of this TV series, Noon Sunshine finally launched 2017's "The Wind Rises in the Long Forest".
The content of the story has nothing to do with our favorite Mei Changsu and King Jing, the plot is independent, and the far-fetched connection is pitiful.
If such a "The Wind Rises in the Long Forest" wants to win the first season of "Langya Bang", first of all, in terms of storytelling, the story must compete with the first season.
If we carefully comb through the stories of these two seasons, we will find that although both are versions of the story of "beautiful and miserable", the misery of "Langya Bang" has a lot of "concealment", which is usually presented in memories.
And the "beautiful" and "strong" parts were shown by Brother Su, the leader of the Zuojiang League, who was at the top of the Langya list at the beginning, laying the satisfaction of the protagonist.
Coupled with the later layout and the help of the best friends of the old department, even if he is dealing with a powerful villain, there is still a sense of sovereignty that the protagonist is in control of the overall situation.
The balance of "beauty, strength and misery" in "The Wind Rises in Changlin" is not very good, starting from the decline of Changlin Palace, Pingzhang left, Tingsheng left, the old emperor left, and the whole plot is constantly lost.
And the villain setting is too stupid, and the protagonist group still can't win, which makes the audience extremely unhappy.
Coupled with the sad plot atmosphere deliberately created by the whole, as well as the plot bugs that the audience continues to discover, even though this drama has a high score of 8+, no one can deny that it accounts for the convenience of the first season of "Langya Bang".
In terms of storytelling, "The Wind Rises in the Long Forest" lost one game, coupled with the combination of Huang Xiaoming and Liu Haoran, it is indeed not as powerful as the combination of Hu Ge and Wang Kai, and it is actually quite a fluke that the ratings and word-of-mouth can have such a performance.
But "Langya Bang 3", which has not completed the script after seven years, is not so lucky, judging from the introduction of director Kong Sheng, the plot of "Langya Bang 3" is still "passed down in one line" and no fundamental changes have been made.
However, the times are very different, and the audience's worldview has also changed greatly, for example, in the past, it was advocated that "it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years", but now everyone hopes that "revenge will be avenged on the spot", and what they want is this coolness.
If the main creator stubbornly uses the core of the old version in order to continue the series of "Langya Bang", it will be difficult to please from the perspective of storytelling.
The main creator and producer should have foreseen this, and they are not optimistic, otherwise Noon Sunshine is not a little Karami, there are talented people with qualifications, according to the urine of an IP in the entertainment industry, "Langya List 3" would have come out a long time ago.
In my opinion, if "Langya Bang 3" is to be released, it can have "one lineage" and "unity of world view", and it can still talk about the height of the temple and the distance of the rivers and lakes in the treacherous situation.
But the character design and plot must cater to the times, let's go to see the popularity of "Yi Nian Guan Mountain" last year, we know that this drama is to win with character design and storytelling, even though there are many deficiencies in production and logic, it is still a hit.
Therefore, if "Langya Bang 3" is not filmed, it must come up with a unique and novel story to reproduce the glory!
