In 2005, a little girl fell in love with a novel.
turned out to be chasing hard, but this novel suddenly stopped updating. The troubles of the little girl
were noticed by her boyfriend, and the boy decided to write a novel for her that would not be interrupted and could be completed smoothly. The boy's pen name
is , the world tyrant sings , and this novel, which was born to coax his girlfriend, is 's "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" , which created a first-of-its-kind literature. How popular is
"Ghost Blowing the Lamp"?
According to incomplete statistics, this IP has been transformed into film and television 47 times, and major directors and producers are still rushing to it. If nothing else happens to
, for many years to come, there will be a series of "Ghost Blowing Lights" movies or online dramas to meet you every year.
And what everyone is most looking forward to now is undoubtedly the "Kunlun Shrine" which will be broadcast on September 21st.
called it the most anticipated by the audience, not just nonsense, but supported by evidence. On the day that
"Kunlun Shrine" was finalized, it happened to hit the iQIYI 's pleasure party.
The latter released more than a dozen posters and brand-new trailers for new dramas on the same day, including Zhao Liying , Gong Jun , Zhang Ruoyun The works of very popular actors, people have to be impressed by the works of "Kunlun God" The publicity of "Palace" made me sweat.
However, obviously everyone underestimated the strength of "Kunlun Shrine". Although
is beleaguered on all sides, according to Detawen's grasp of the public opinion on the whole network, "Kunlun Shrine" has received the most attention among a number of new dramas, and has successfully reached the top of the list of the prosperity index of the dramas to be broadcast.
Today, let's talk about why this drama can become the most concerned drama to be broadcast.
1. The return of the most acclaimed Hu Bayi
Some netizens said with a smile that the protagonist of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" Hu Bayi is the role that has been played the most, if you give the actor who played Hu Bayi a number , can be arranged from Hu Bayi to Hu Bayi.
There are a thousand Hamlets in the eyes of a thousand people, and the Hu Bayi performed by different actors is also different.
Ruan Jingtian version is called the most subversive Hu Bayi, because in this drama, Ruan Jingtian used his original voice.
used a soft and glutinous tone to talk about poverty, and the old man-style talking about the mountains in a second turned into gossip in the village, which is not right.
's permed hair is also full of grooves.
Chen Kun's version of is the most sloppy version. In order to cover up his feminine temperament and fit the spirit of Hu Bayi's veterans, the stylist specially affixed a beard to Chen Kun, and the clothes are also bold and unrestrained beggar style. Combining
's bold costumes and Chen Kun's delicate acting skills, this version of Hu Bayi is still far from the original, but it leaves a deep impression on people.
Jin Dong's version of Hu Bayi is a version that is highly recognized by the audience. The temperament of his own veteran cadre is very consistent with the temperament of Hu Bayi's veterans, and the accent of the word is full of jokes. That taste.
Jin Dong's version of "The Ancient City" finally got a high score of 7.9, which can be said to be very recognized by the audience.
It's a pity, because there are many action scenes in the play, so many uncertain factors have been added.
Once, when filming a scene of climbing and escaping, an actor's safety rope loosened and fell, and it was about to hit Chen Qiaoen . Jin Dong pushed Chen Qiaoen at the last minute, and his left The shin bone of the leg was pierced by the skate on the actor's skates , had to stop work for a week and was hospitalized to recuperate.
was bitten by snakes for ten years and was afraid of ropes. Although the broadcast effect was very good, Jin Dong stayed away from the shooting of such subjects.
When everyone was mourning the loss of one of the best Hu Bayi, a stronger version appeared, he was Pan Yueming .
Director Fei Zhenxiang When he first met Pan Yueming, he was not Hu Bayi, but Chen Yulou from the spin-off work "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" "Funny Xiangxi" . After the play
came out, it received rave reviews. In addition to his elegant side, Chen Yulou, the head of the role played by Pan Yueming, also made people see his stubbornness and his temperament as a leader.
So director Fei Zhenxiang quickly threw an olive branch to Pan Yueming, and this time he was invited to play the role of Hu Bayi.
At that time, not only the outside world was full of doubts about Fei Zhenxiang's choice, but even Pan Yueming himself had little confidence.
Because Hu Bayi in the book is a 32-year-old, strong and strong young man, and when Fei Zhenxiang asked Pan Yueming to play Hu Bayi, he was already 46 years old, and his figure was beginning to gain weight.
, especially since he has just finished playing Chen Yulou, and immediately wants to play another role in the same IP, this is not an easy thing for the audience to accept.
But Fei Zhenxiang still insisted, pouring chicken soup for Pan Yueming's soul, saying that he believed he would be able to play Hu Bayi well.
In the end, Pan Yueming was persuaded by Fei Zhenxiang.
Facts have proved that Fei Zhenxiang has a discerning eye, and after the broadcast of " Longling Labyrinth ", the ratings surpassed other "Ghost Blowing Lamp" remakes in one fell swoop, with a high score of 8.1 points "Ghost Blowing Lamp remake first drama" "The throne.
Pan Yueming also created a new way for the interpretation of Hu Bayi.
The previous versions of Hu Bayi, the audience will inevitably compare it with the original when watching the drama, and they can't help but pay attention to the degree of restoration.
Even if everyone praises Jin Dong's version of Hu Bayi, it is because he has the highest degree of reduction.
And Pan Yueming's Hu Bayi, the biggest success is not in the image, but in the natural comfort.
When you watch Hu Bayi played by Yueming Pan, you don't think about whether he is similar to the description in the book, and who is better than the previous versions.
Because he completely jumped out of Hu Bayi's frame, his performance style is his own.
Pan Yueming was born in Beijing, and he speaks with his own Beijing films, and also has the habit of Beijingers who start teasing unconsciously when chatting.
So when he is poor in the show, there is no sense of feigned humor, everything is natural.
And when he led the Iron Triangle through various dangerous monuments, the solemn face and slightly frowned brows made people see his responsibility and reliability as a leader.
Pan Yueming gives the impression that he is not here to play Hu Bayi, he is Hu Bayi himself.
character so naturally everyone ignores his beer belly.
even the world tyrant called him "the best Hu Bayi".
From the latest preview of "Kunlun Shrine", Pan Yueming has continued his good acting skills before.
But if it is really dangerous, he will immediately be on full alert and seriously instruct his teammates to deal with it.
is still the familiar Hu Bayi.
So although there are 4 "Ghost Blowing Lamps" this year, some are animations, some are starring Zhang Hanyu , but the most genuine Hu Bayi is definitely Pan Yueming.
Second, the strongest iron triangle reunites again, the new director expects
Pan Yueming to be able to fire, Zhang Yuqi and Jiang Chao also contributed, after all, these three are called the strongest iron triangle combination of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp".
Zhang Yuqi has given the impression of an iceberg beauty since her debut.
Zhou Xingchi asked her to play " Mermaid ", and the role assigned to her was a domineering female president who did not recognize her six relatives.
So when Zhang Yuqi met Shirley Yang , it was like a key met a paired lock, which was perfect.
Chen Qiaoen's version of Shirley Yang gives people a cold face and a deep feeling, while Zhang Yuqi is naturally aloof and suitable for playing Shirley.
is the same as Zhang Yuqi, and the fat man played by Jiang Chao also has a perfect fit with the role. In
"Wulin Gaiden", Jiang Chao showed Li Dazui and 's unreliable character performance. Although the character of
Fatty is not as cowardly and cowardly as Li Dazui, he is still quite similar in character.
has a broken mouth, likes to make jokes, and looks easy to get close to. Jiang Chao completely restored the fat man in the book.
In addition to Zhang Yuqi and Jiang Chao, there are many new faces in "Kunlun Shrine". The most anticipated thing about
is that the partridge whistle in "Nursing Xiangxi" appeared in the trailer, which is still played by Gao Weiguang , which can be said to be a dream linkage between the two dramas.
Pan Yueming and Gao Weiguang cooperated tacitly in "Nvqing Xiangxi", and together with Xin Zhilei were also called the Iron Triangle.
The duel between the old and the new triangle, let's see who is more capable.
plays the role of Tang Zhenye , who plays Mingshu . He changed his seriousness as an emperor in "Palace" and turned into a mercenary antique dealer.
's strong accent of Hong Kong Pu, as well as "fat boy, I have put up with you for a long time" such a Hong Kong-flavored expression, make this character full of comedy effects. If
is not indicated in the notice, I still do not recognize this is Sha Baoliang .
has rough skin, a beard full of vicissitudes, and most importantly, firm eyes. The sense of story conveyed by this scene can be said to be stronger than many professional actors.
The role of Ake should be a variable in the play. He fought side by side with Hu Bayi and others for a while, and then stood on the opposite side of them. What kind of love, hatred and hatred were staged during this period is really exciting.
In addition, in addition to several new actors, this show also has a character that the audience can't see, which is actually quite interesting. Before
, whether it was "Nvqing Xiangxi" or "Longling Cave" and " Yunnan Insect Valley ", the director was Fei Zhenxiang.
, but "Longling Cave" has been replaced by Cai Yuexun .
said that the name is not familiar to everyone, and that his masterpiece is that everyone knows it. His most famous works are Jerry Yan and Big S version of " Meteor Garden " .
" ruffian hero " directed by him is also a high-scoring masterpiece. The style of
Cai Yuexun's works is delicate. From the quality of some big scenes in the trailer, it can be seen that his control of quality and details is much stronger than that of Fei Zhenxiang, and the fantasy scenes in the trailer have reached an ultra-high level. The change of the main creative lineup of
is bound to bring different sparks to "Kunlun Shrine", let us wait and see.
3. Live-action shooting, full score for special effects
When the last "Insect Valley of Yunnan" was broadcast, many viewers complained that the traces of the cutout were serious, and the special effects were serious.
apparently also heard the feedback, so after thinking about it, this time it's real. The Gobi, grassland, and snow-capped mountains appeared in the
trailer, but this time, there is no trace of cutout, because all of them were shot in real scenes.
not only shot the real scene from a distance, but also a group of actors were pulled into the mountains more than 4,000 meters above sea level for filming, so as to make the big scene so real.
In terms of special effects and props, the crew also worked hard. In the
play, the altar glimpsed in the dreamy atmosphere, and the avalanche triggered by the altar is magnificent and magnificent. When the monster in the tomb of
opened the mouth of the blood basin, the blood vessels and saliva in the mouth were clearly visible, and the authenticity was 100%. The stone carvings in the
ancient tomb are simple and vivid in shape, and can be seen clothed with a thin layer of fine ash, and the details are full marks.
In addition, the scenes in Samsara Temple, Zanggugou, Bingshi, Yaolou, and Underground River have also been restored one by one, and it can be seen that they are well made.
wrote at the end:
The audience likes to watch "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", the picture is fresh and exciting.
is reflected in the episode, that is, there should be a sense of suspense of tomb exploration, as well as exquisite special effects. Several successful remakes of
"Ghost Blowing the Lamp", while telling the story well, all of them have achieved the ultimate in special effects. On the other hand, those works with dismal ratings are not good at special effects. The reason why
's "Insect Valley of Yunnan" is not as good as "Nu Qing Xiangxi" and "Longling Grottoes" is largely because of its perfunctory production.
and even Pan Yueming were very fat when filming "Insect Valley of Yunnan", and his rotten mentality was obvious. Even his natural acting skills could not save the audience's complaints about him.
A good attitude is the premise of a good work. The producers thought that with the popularity accumulated in the previous work, they could deal with the audience at will, but it turned out that the filming of the show was not good, and no one was willing to buy it.
Fortunately, it's not too late to make amends.
Judging from the preview of "Kunlun Shrine", the producer has corrected his attitude this time, and in terms of the texture of the trailer, it has reached the level of a blockbuster movie.
Tomato-kun believes that "Kunlun Shrine" definitely has the potential to become the new masterpiece of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", let's wait and see.
