web drama " Tang Dynasty Weird Stories " is being broadcast, and it is positioned as an ancient costume suspense and reasoning drama. It tells a series of anecdotes that happened under the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Chang'an Jinwu Weizhong Lang Lu Lingfeng He will join hands with Su Wuming, a disciple of Duke Di, to solve the conspiracy, protect the common people, and take on the mission of saving the society from crisis.
The main actors of this drama are Yang Xuwen , who had worked with Guo Jingyu on the 17th edition of " Legend of the Condor Heroes ", and Yang Zhigang, who has been cooperating with Guo Jingyu, the web drama " Soul Ferry " previously produced by Guo Jingyu's team It has gained a good reputation, so the audience is still looking forward to this online drama.
The protagonist of the story, Lu Lingfeng, is set up as an upright, a little impulsive military general. Seeing the three words "Zhonglang Jiang" always unconsciously reminds people of Li Yuanfang in the same type of " Detective Di Renjie " , he also served as a general.
The other protagonist is Su Wuming, who is set to be Di Renjie's direct disciple. He has followed Di Gong to solve many cases. Naturally, it is Di Renjie in "Detective Di Renjie". Director
also reminds the audience all the time that we are shooting things related to Di Renjie, because Su Wuming's method to eliminate others' doubts about him is to repeat that he is Di Gong's disciple. If the latter setting is not reversed, then the screenwriter is a bit unreasonable.
The story consists of eight cases, "Chang'an Black Tea", "Shiqiao Tu", "Zhengshengtang", "Huangmei Killing", "Gantang Station Weird Talk", "Tuoshen", "Human Mianhua" and "Tower of the Sky". Look at the name of each chapter. The play should inherit the setting of Tsui Hark version of "Di Renjie".
After Tsui Hark achieved both box office and word-of-mouth success in " Di Renjie: The Empire of Heaven ", he completely opened another door to suspense dramas, that is, adding fantasy elements to the movie, and successfully turned martial arts suspense into a Fantasy suspense movie.
In "Empire of Babel", the director was more restrained, but added red flame beetle , a creature that can make people spontaneously ignite with just a little bit, without the red flame beetle, this movie is also very watchable, it is just Di Renjie A clue to the case. When
arrived in "Dragon King of Shendu", the fantasy color gradually became stronger, and the progress of the plot mostly depended on the poison and a big fish that made people become the "Dragon King". The visual effects of
have improved a lot, but the creation of suspense is seriously insufficient. When the plot has just reached one third, the audience guesses the final boss. The special effects are already overwhelming.
When the third "Di Renjie: The Four Heavenly Kings" arrived, the director completely let himself go, and there were scenes of hundreds of people practicing illusions together. I didn't even bother to make up a reason, and when it was about to end, I said that the Demon Sealing Clan was good at this.
So no matter how unexpectedly the plot reverses, the audience is not surprised, and even feels fooled by the director. There is no surprise in the plot of a suspense drama. The word-of-mouth of this one has dropped to freezing point, and the box office is not as good as the previous one, so there is no sequel.
After that, many digital movies about Di Renjie appeared on the Internet, and a dozen Di Renjies were born all at once. The imagination is richer than the other, the "monsters" that appear are more strange than the other, and the illusion is more evil than the other, but most of the plots are difficult to justify, and this ip has been played badly.
The first case of this drama is "Changan Black Tea", which combines many elements of "Empire of Tongtian", "Dragon King of Shendu" and "Four Heavenly Kings". The Chang'an black tea is very popular among dignitaries and nobles. "Dragon King of Shendu" also has a similar plot.
The place where they trade black tea is the ghost market, "Babel Empire""There is also a ghost market. In the ghost market, there is a genius doctor, Feiji, who does not take the usual path. There is a similar donkey in "Tongtian". In
"Chang'an Black Tea", the preparation of Chang'an black tea requires the blood of the bride, and it happens that the villain Huo Yiyang in "Dragon King of Shendu" also uses living people.
The villain Eleven Niang in "Chang'an Black Tea" used illusion to make people think that she was attacked by a beast. In "Four Heavenly Kings", Feng Mozu is best at illusion.
"Chang'an Black Tea" in "Chang'an Black Tea", Eleven Niang and Eleven Lang are the same yin and yang. The method of disguising is to insert a hairpin on the back of the head. The national teacher Lu Li and Shangguan Jinger in "Empire of Tongtian" also share the same body, so does disguise Put a hairpin in the back of your head. The difference is that the disguise of Yin Shiniang and has little effect on the plot, while Shangguan Jinger's disguise is one of the most critical clues in the play.
The villain Yuanlai in "Chang'an Black Tea" wants to control the court through black tea, and Huo Yi in "Dragon King of Shendu" does the same.
have many similarities in common. Of course, this setting has an advantage, that is, the audience can quickly enter the play. After all, the martial arts and martial arts of Gulong and Jin Yong overlap a lot.
Judging from this currently airing series, it is better than most of the online dramas of the same theme. The special effects are not abused, the characters are quite distinct, the suspenseful atmosphere is created well, and the acting skills of the two protagonists are also good. Okay, especially Yang Zhigang, he finally stopped saying his lines word by word.
However, the progress of the plot is sometimes particularly hard. For example, Su Wuming chased the chicken master in the secret road of the ghost city, but he went directly to the underground of the villain's lair, and the exit happened to be where another male protagonist, Lu Lingfeng, was trapped in the iron cage. , and finally successfully helped Lu Lingfeng escape the siege. The villains don't even know that their old nest has such a channel.
When the last villain captured Su Wuming, he somehow became kind. There is no need for a knife, and he chose to throw him into the sewer to drown, giving the protagonist who pretended to be dizzy a chance to break free from the rope. After that, the other protagonist found here from another tunnel and had a final battle.
This method of solving a case without entering a tiger's den is a bit like Qian Dao's "Detective Di Renjie" series, but Di Renjie will make adequate preparations in advance when he decides to take risks with himself. Yuanfang 's martial arts settings It can also ensure that no matter how strong the villain is, Master Di's plan can be implemented.
And every cooperation between the two protagonists in this play is like a coincidence, and the chance is very high. The villain's blind operation can win the victory. The villain in the first case has both long-winded and too curious. , Have compassion for the protagonist, sudden reduction in martial arts, and love to watch the fun.
In a background where strange insects and beasts, poisons, illusions, and magic tricks are rampant, the four protagonists Lu Lingfeng, Su Wuming, Fei Jishi and Pei Xijun are only one person who can master martial arts. Would the director be too hasty? The villains in the subsequent cases did not know how to put them in the water.
Of course, the background of Su Wuming and Fei Jishi was introduced relatively little, and it is not ruled out that these two people are pretending to be pigs and eating tigers. I hope the following episodes will be more exciting. After all, the line of the battle between the princess and the prince is still very exciting, and the master in Eleven Niang's mouth is obviously not Yuanlai. The truth is estimated to be slowly revealed in subsequent cases.
