Recently, the appearance rate of the circle of friends, the hot search rate of Weibo, and the click rate of major platforms are the funny and bloody costume youth web drama "Once upon a time there was a spirit sword mountain". Starring Xu Kai and Zhang Rongrong is not a popular traffic, but the original party feels that their excellent interpretation is "soul fit" with the original characters, and the form of the online drama itself also breaks the pattern of the traditional ancient costume fairy drama, bold and bold.

Smoke is a description, it is said that this kind of aiming at the sinking market produces a diffuse effect; fire is a fact, no matter whether the sound of this kind of work is praise or derogation, the data is the best proof of the "hot drama". The smoke and fire together are a point of view, and even more a question.

From the first "Princess's Promotion", which was frequently searched in various gestures and modes, to the most hilarious Japanese drama "I am Big Brother" in Japan last year, and the New Zealand movie "Vampire Life" launched by FX TV in the United States this year. The drama version of the same name. In recent years, there has always been this kind of joke and spoof at home and abroad. In the end, is it that the film and television environment needs this simple and direct nonsensical style to reconcile in the anxiousness of ice and fire? Or does this so-called "pyrotechnic show" do have its high-power? After all, what elements are needed for this kind of "pyrotechnic drama" that can be popular with intensive jokes and anti-routine settings?

"Once upon a time there was a mountain of spirit swords" sounds very nonsensical, but its original work is a fairy-style novel created by His Majesty the King on the Chuangshi Chinese website in 2013. It has a high popularity. From the work itself, It is also one of the most weird works in the mix of dragons and snakes. After China-Japan cooperation was adapted into anime in 2016, the overall rhythm and structure have gained more fans, and domestic animation has at least knocked on the door of Japanese animation that is difficult for outsiders to enter.

"There used to be a Spirit Sword Mountain, and there was a Spirit Sword Sect on the mountain." "Once there was a Spirit Sword Sect" tells the story of the Spirit Sword Sect, in order to further expand the power of the sect, inviting elites from all walks of life to participate in the Ascension Conference. With the fall of a comet and the Great Tribulation of the Doomsday, Wang Lu, a genius, has an ethereal root that has not existed in a thousand years. With modern thinking, he stepped into the mountain gate of the Spirit Sword School and interacted with his master Wang Wu. With scientific knowledge and super emotional intelligence, He and Hai Yunfan and others crushed the alien world and embarked on the anti-routine road of becoming a peerless powerhouse. No matter how you look at it, it's the texture of the "Daguai Upgrade" web text, but the unique anti-routine model makes this work like a "Tucao novel wrapped in Xiu Xianpi".

adapted into a live-action web drama "Once upon a time there was a Lingjian Mountain" in a two-dimensional style, but the lines are very close to modern life, with all kinds of fun. From the beginning, "Being a human, the most important thing is to be happy" makes people return to the TVB scene in a second, to a serious nonsense, "The four major irons of life are the same window, the gun, the injury and the sharing together. "Passing the stolen", from the trial of immortality being played into a game mode, various online game vocabularies such as "novice village, side quests" are opened, and the next door character enters the plot of "This is simply Wei Yingluo" "It becomes me in a second Sister Fucha Queen", how can such a contrast not make people want to stop. Talking about being serious as being serious is a great counter-routine to win this kind of "firework drama."

"Once Upon a Time There was a Spirit Sword Mountain" comes from the collision of Gu Zhuangzhen and Zhong Er Wu Li Tou plot, and the highlight of the high-frequency golden sentence and high-energy anti-routine is also the rhythm of the front and rear feet, which makes people overwhelmed. Basically, I just laughed out of a down-to-earth line, took a breath and slowly, and another surprising anti-routine made people plunge into the laughter again. The overall plot of the plot is densely arranged, but it’s amazing and precise. It’s not dense enough to make you laugh all the time. On the contrary, after you slow down and watch the show well, another wave of jokes will be thrown to feed you. "The rhythm is clearly arranged. It seems that such a technique is also the only secret of "fireworks".

returns to the "fireworks" itself. Generally speaking, they are simple and straightforward. The overall texture is very sinking and grounded. Relying on the "coolness" point to lift the appetite, it can meet the taste of the majority of mainstream Chinese audiences. However, it cannot be denied that this kind of "fireworks" cannot be loved and respected by fans of high-quality and high-quality dramas. Can leave meaning and value, saveGood works that are in the first generation, not just a moment, are still the kind of precipitation and heavy stories.

In general, "fireworks" can exist, and must exist, but not too much. There are one or two "firework dramas" in many traditional plots, which are refreshing. They are the "clear flow" of the same type of drama gameplay and routines. They are the "mudslides" that attract the audience involuntarily. But if the entire market is only because of the explosion of data Fire and vigorously change the helm, then the future vision of the film and television market will be unsightly.
