This year's Spring Festival broadcast of "Son-in-law" can be said to be the biggest dark horse in the online drama market in the first half of the year.
Despite the controversy before the start of the broadcast, it was well received after the broadcast for its style of costume light comedy and the variety of "crossing terriers" that frequently appeared in the circle. On the video website, the number of broadcasts of the show ranked first in the same period during the broadcast period.
However, although the drama version of "Son-in-law" was well received at the beginning of the broadcast, the drama was somewhat high and low in terms of word of mouth.
In particular, the plot of the Second Half of the play has triggered the audience's complaints and controversies: the story pattern has shifted from a commercial war to a power-seeking country, but the production and story are very dramatic, loopholes and slots abound, and finally it is a tiger's tail grass.
So much so that the Douban score of the drama, from 7.5 points at the beginning of the broadcast, fell all the way to the current 6.4 points, which is difficult to reconcile.
Although the main creator has announced that the original team will return to shoot "Son-in-law 2", but considering the production cycle of domestic dramas, the second season of the web drama version will not meet the audience until next year at the earliest, after all, the "Qing Yu Nian" next door has been broadcast for more than two years, and the second season has been far from being started.
However, although the audience can't see "Son-in-law 2" for a short time, the original team of the play has returned to star in a fanwai movie version, as a fanfare of the web drama "赘婿", that is, this movie that has just been launched, "赘婿之吉興高照".
Today, let's talk about this "Son-in-law" biography -
<h1 class="pgc-h-center-line" data-track="18" >"</h1>
The drama was created by the original team behind the web drama, and almost all the actors in the web drama version returned. For example: Nie Yunzhu in the drama version, Yuan Bao'er, Male Virtue Academy F4, villain Wu Qihao and so on.
However, the two most important protagonists in the drama version, Guo Qilin and Song Yi, have not returned, so the protagonist of the movie version of "Son-in-law" is not Ning Yi in the web drama version, but Ning Yi's brother-in-law, Su Wenxing, the cousin of the Su family.
In the web drama version, this role is the villain in the early stage, mainly responsible for giving the protagonists Ning Yi and Su Tan'er a trip in their careers, obviously the IQ is not very high, but they are bent on competing with Su Tan'er for the Su family palm seal. However, with the development of the plot, after being defeated by Ning Yi, it mainly became a funny person, although it was made of heaven and earth, but it could not stand the style of painting stupid and cute, and contributed a lot of laughs to the drama version.
In particular, the actor Liu Guanlin, who plays Su Wenxing, has a sense of comedy in his appearance, and the Su Wenxing he plays is very similar to the animated character King Jiji in "Bear Haunting", so he is ridiculed by netizens as: King Jiji Benji, but it makes the role more attractive.
Therefore, this foreign film version chose Su Wenxing as the protagonist, on the one hand, because this role is a supporting role in the original work, and the role is not much, so it is more conducive to the screenwriter to play a brain hole adaptation, on the other hand, because Su Wenxing's comedic setting in the drama version is very suitable for the style of "Son-in-law" as a costume light comedy, and it is undoubtedly a rather flattering choice to expand the "Son-in-law Universe" with him.
Speaking of the story, the plot of "The Son-in-law's Yoshiyuki Takashi" was born out of the web drama version, but the story basically started out of the same place, and it can be regarded as an independent foreign movie. From the timeline point of view, the story should take over the end of the first season of the web series.
The story still begins with the Su family in Jiangning, at this time Su Tan'er and Ning Yi have gone to Wudu to develop, and the Su family's cloth business in Jiangning has been handed over to his cousin Su Wenxing to take charge. Su Wenxing hoped that he would be able to make some achievements in the cloth line in order to win the position of the Su family's palm seal.
However, the old lady of the Su family refused to give the palm seal to Su Wenxing, but at this moment, Su Wenxing learned that the people under the Su family actually looked down on themselves at all, believing that they had no talent and ability, but only relied on the property left by Ning Yi and Su Tan'er, nominally the acting treasurer of the cloth bank, but in fact it was purely a "mascot."
In the drama version, he was defeated by Ning Yi, and now Su Wenxing is living in the shadow of Ning Yi and Su Tan'er, which makes him unwilling and determined to prove himself to everyone, unwilling to make another decoration.
With this kind of angry and strong ideals and baggage, Su Wenxing made a bold decision - to bid farewell to the Jiangning Su family, but to go to the Fuyuan where he lived as a child to work hard, one is to prove his ability, and the other is to completely get rid of Ning Yi's shadow.
On the way out of Jiangning, Su Wenxing also met Wu Qihao, who was also defeated by Ning Yi.
Today's Wu Qihao changed his mind after bankruptcy, started a business again, and established the "Yiwu Small Commodity Market", which made Su Wenxing very encouraged, since Wu Qihao can make a comeback, why can't he start a successful business?
However, the ideal is very beautiful, the reality is very bone, and Su Wenxing's entrepreneurial road to Fuyuan is not smooth.
He transplanted Ning Yi's set of commercial operation logic in Jiangning City, such as fighting knives, leather egg economy, Suning Yi shopping, parking spaces, etc., but the commercial strategies left by Ning Yi have long been spread all over the world, and Fuyuan has long had many cottages and imitators, so Su Wenxing's cloth line is not competitive.
Just when Su Wenxing was in a stalemate before starting a business, he actually met his former classmate Gao Tian (Wang Zhixuan), a young lady of the local rich gentleman Gao Family, at Fuyuan's classmate's meeting.
Although Gao Tian was born into a rich family, she was a smart and proud girl with a high talent for business, but because of her status as a woman, she could not inherit the family business and do business.
Yes, Miss Gao is a copy of Su Tan'er. What is more troublesome is that at this time, Miss Gao is being forced to marry.
Originally, although the Gao family was a rich gentry in the ancestors, but in the generation of the high father, because of the business losses caused by the family road, in desperation, the high father chose to marry the rich wang family of Fuyuan, and wanted to marry his daughter to the rich prince.
But Miss Gao was not willing to fall victim to the commercial marriage, and it was at this time that he met Su Wenxing, an old classmate who came to Fuyuan to start a business.
It just so happens that Su Wenxing's entrepreneurship has a bad start, and Miss Gao herself has a lot of business talent, she took the initiative to give Su Wenxing advice, and came up with a more fashionable business strategy, such as: packaged sale, seven-day no reason to return, installment payment, recharge card and so on.
Under miss Gao's behind-the-scenes staff, Su Wenxing's business gradually turned into a profit.
In this process, Su Wenxing and Miss Gao became acquainted with each other again, and they became more and more close to each other. Although Miss Gao was grounded at home, Su Wenxing came up with various ways to blend into the Gao Mansion and meet with Miss Gao to discuss business, so the two set up a "Jixing Gaozhao" group.
Su Wenxing missed Miss Gao's help, so he took the initiative to promise that the money earned would be divided into half of Miss Gao, so that Miss Gao could take the money to give Gao Father's business debts, and the Gao family would no longer have to marry the Wang family.
In the process of doing business, Miss Gao came up with the method of replacing idle goods, they used resource replacement to start the "salted fish" business, Su's cloth as a transit station to store the idle things of the people in the city for free, and then according to the needs of both sides for equal exchange, the cloth bank collected a small service fee, thus establishing a huge user base and trading network, and named: interconnection network.
Just when Su Wenxing's business was getting into Doujin, the ambiguous relationship between him and Miss Gao had a rift.
In fact, Su Wenxing's business in Fuyuan is so prosperous, in fact, it is still Miss Gao's business acumen.
Su Wenxing is a very inferior person, he is eager to prove himself, he is more afraid of others to know that he is now successful in entrepreneurship, or rely on the help of outsiders.
At this time, due to Su Wenxing's success in starting a business in Fuyuan, he gained the trust of the old lady of the Su family and intended to pass on the Su family palm seal to him.
Therefore, in order to get the coveted palm print, Su Wenxing took the initiative to promise to give Miss Gao more profit sharing, but the requirement was that Miss Gao could not keep secrets from the outside world, and could not tell outsiders that these strategies and ideas were all she came up with.
Miss Su actually had a good feeling for Su Wenxing in her heart, but she did not expect that King Jiji only had career and interests in his eyes.
After that, Miss Gao left in disgrace, and she wanted to redeem the marriage freedom from her father with the money she earned, but her father refused, because in her father's eyes, this money could only alleviate the urgent need for a while, and the only way to really continue the Business of the Gao family was to marry the Wang family.
In this way, Miss Gao was forced to marry the prince of the Wang family on the right day, while Su Wenxing returned to Jiangning to inherit the Su family's palm seal. But after really getting the palm print, Su Wenxing's heart was not as happy as he imagined, but he was very disappointed, he knew that he had hurt Gao Tian, and finally understood that he also had Gao Tian in his heart.
Therefore, Su Wenxing finally decided to return to Fuyuan after borrowing wine to dispel his sorrows and worries, and blocked Miss Gao's marriage. At the same time, at the wedding, Miss Gao forced her to jump off the building and force her to die rather than marry. In the chaos, Su Wenxing rushed to the wedding scene, and the king returned to save Gao Tian.
With the strength of wine, Su Wenxing actually completed the confession to Miss Gao, and acknowledged Miss Gao's talent in business, and encouraged her to make a career. At this point, the father understood his daughter's intentions, so he agreed to the marriage between the two.
However, when Su Wenxing woke up drunk, he learned that he had actually embarked on Ning Yi's old road without paying attention and became a son-in-law of the Gaofu!
After the happy ending of the film, it left an Easter egg: Wu Qihao's Yiwu small commodity market is getting bigger and bigger, but recently it has been found that there are people in Wudu who buy goose feathers in large quantities. As a businessman, Wu Qihao's keen senses detected that something was abnormal, because goose feathers were an important armament used to make arrows.
But the director turned the style of painting, but came to a bedroom, the familiar figure was busy on the table, sewing and designing a goose feather-filled coat, this person is Ning Yi, and the clothes he designed are down jackets.
The design of this Easter egg is undoubtedly a hint to the plot of the second season of the web drama version, Ning Yi and Su Tan'er's business in Wudu is getting more and more prosperous, and now that the down jacket has been made, it is obvious that it wants to sell to the north, and at the end of the first season, there is already suspense, and the Jingguo in the north is looking at the tiger.
So bold speculation: Ning Yi made a down jacket, could it be a hint that the next season will go to Jingguo to start a new adventure?
Speaking of the movie itself, "Son-in-law's Ji Xing Gao Zhao" as a foreign film, continued the style of the drama version, the initiative light comedy style mixed with funny business war elements, the movie version is basically equivalent to the mini version of the network drama, Su Wenxing also embarked on the road of son-in-law, the same is to engage in career and love double line of sweet pet comedy routine, the overall victory in light and interesting.
Of course, also like the first half of the drama version, this film is only a sub-dinner drama in the end, so many plots are actually completely for the brain hole and funny, the details are not able to withstand scrutiny, and in terms of production, this film and the drama version, there is still the problem of repeated use of the scene, and the painting style is more simple and low-end than the drama version.
In general, for this movie version of "Son-in-law", in fact, it is more like the "Kingdom: A Letter in the North" produced by Netflix before, called a foreign movie, at best it is only a warm-up short film before the broadcast of the sequel to the drama version, and it is only recommended to fans who have watched the online drama version of "Son-in-law"!
