“The opening scene is a critical hit, the picture quality is beyond imagination, the special effects and costumes have been worked hard, and the aesthetics are respected.”
“The special effects are beautiful, and you can see the team’s hard work.”
“The actors’ makeup is beautiful, and their clothes and The accessories are not cheap, and they have the flavor of a fairy."
...
At a time when the aesthetics of a fairy are often questioned, "Shen Yin" , which is currently being broadcast on Tencent Video, has attracted the attention of the audience with its good "artistic conception". Won a lot of praise. It brings out the fantasy and weirdness of Eastern mythology in the setting of the scene. For example, the plants, strange beasts, character prototypes and other images in the Three Realms and the Nine Abyss Hell can be seen everywhere in the "Book of Mountains and Seas", like a dark and twisted Chinese-style "treacherous forest".

In addition to the scenes, the characters in the play also have their own unique styles. The shape complements the character's identity, status, and personality. Hongyi, the nephew of the king of the demon fox clan, appeared for the first time. He wore a red and white coat with a large fur collar. The fur collar was fluffy and colorful, which clearly showed his noble status as a nine-tailed fox. Emperor Lanfeng, as the heavenly emperor in charge of the immortal world, focuses on elegance and solemnity. His clothes and hair crown are mainly white gold, which makes him look graceful and luxurious without being too conspicuous. As the controllers of the Youming Realm, Ao Ge and Xiu Yan's clothing colors are mainly dark ink and gray and white. On the one hand, it brings out the "bond relationship" between the two, and on the other hand, it adds to the mystery of the characters.
As a fairy tale drama, "Shen Yin" does not focus exclusively on the male and female protagonists, but combines them to create a number of supporting characters with distinctive personalities and full-scale personalities.
What is "divine hiding"? Love arises without destiny, miracles cannot be found, and love hides itself. Regardless of whether they are gods, immortals, or demons, in front of their loved ones, everyone will lower their posture, transcend social classes, become equal beings, and show the same emotions. The story of "The Hidden God" revolves around the emotional story between gods, immortals and demons.
Most of the characters in "The Hidden God" have a complete story line. In order to understand their stories, bazaar specially invited Li Yunrui, Cui Hang, and He Kailang to shoot a series of blockbusters for them, trying to capture the hidden ten-tailed celestial fox Hong Yi, Lanfeng Emperor, Youming Wang Aoge and Xiu Another side of Yan.
A cold little fox, willing to put down his guard for his friends
Hong Yi, played by Li Yunrui, is the most special character in "The Hidden God", He is the only one in the protagonist group who comes from the demon world, and his parents have also been in the fairy demon world He died in the battle and had a blood feud with the fairy world. But he formed friendships with his friends in the fairy world that transcended race, identity, and status. Even though he was misunderstood later, he was still willing to put aside his grudges and steadfastly work with the good.
Hongyi (played by Li Yunrui)
As the nephew of the king of the Fox clan, Hongyi has his charming and alert side. When he first meets a stranger, he will be cautious. Even if the other person is kind to him, he will test him many times and be very considerate. After leaving the Jiuyuan Evil Prison, he was healed by A Yin using magic. Since A Yin is a rare water-condensing beast in the world, Hong Yi had his mind set on taking A Yin as his own. For this reason, Hong Yi began to trick A Yin in various ways. At one moment, he wanted A Yin to take the fox blood pill and obey his words. At the next moment, he persuaded A Yin to practice double cultivation and stay together.
Ke Hongyi is unrestrained, enthusiastic, sincere and magnanimous. Once he is sincere, once he identifies with someone, he will give everything he has and consider the other person at all times. After fell in love with Ayin, she was as arrogant and arrogant as him, but she restrained her sharpness and transformed from the cold and cold highness of the fox tribe into a weak little fox.
When A Yin is unhappy, Hong Yi will immediately pay attention to her emotions and run to her to comfort her; when others praise A Yin's love rival and "the most beautiful woman in the fairy world" Hua Shumei, only Hong Yi stands by A Yin. On Yin's side, he vented his anger for A Yin and said childishly, "Hua Shu has crooked eyes and slanted mouth, and is extremely ugly in the three realms. The most beautiful lady in the three realms is A Yin." After A Yin gave up his spiritual power and was in danger, Hong Yi even tried his best to The Dihui Fox tribe retrieved the sacred objects and tried to save Ayin...
Hongyi showed his sincerity countless times and experienced rejection countless times.Even so, he still believed that "love is companionship and protection" and chose to accompany Ayin and protect her silently. During the shooting of
, in order to highlight Hongyi’s identity as a demon fox, we specially added a lot of fluffy fur elements to the look, giving Li Yunrui a softness despite his coldness. In the blockbuster, he covers his mouth with flowers. Although he cannot speak, the corners of his eyes and brows are full of affection, giving him the feeling of a thousand-year glance, filling the camera with the brightness and sadness of the character.
His love is unrepentant, bright and magnanimous
Lan Feng, played by Cui Hang, is one of the most tragic characters in "The Hidden God". Lanfeng has a good background and outstanding strength. He is in charge of the Heaven Realm and is recognized as the best candidate to succeed the Heavenly Emperor.
What's even more valuable is that as a "fairyland civil servant", he is also honest, fair and just. If he followed this path, he should have been the most respectable and admirable emperor in the immortal world, and then ascended to godhood all the way. However, he fell in love with a person whose personality was completely opposite to his own, and was forced to be involved in the conspiracy of the demon clan, and eventually lost his life because of it.
Lanfeng (played by Cui Hang)
This person is Hua Shu, the peacock princess from Bainiao Island. The Peacock clan only regarded Hua Shu's marriage as a tool for exchanging benefits. Even Hua Shu herself thought so. She felt that since Lanfeng liked her, he should favor her and indulge her unconditionally. But Lanfeng is a person who distinguishes between public and private affairs and is unwilling to use his connections to deliver benefits to the Peacock family.
Lanfeng chose another way to show his love and heal Hua Shu. Lanfeng doesn't know how to say sweet words, he only expresses his feelings through actions. He has served in Tiangong for hundreds of years and has never taken a half-day leave. The only time he took leave was to punish Hua Shu;
Hua Shu tried to frame A Yin and put the blame for destroying the soul-protecting arrow on A Yin. Lanfeng After investigating everything, he still risked his future, protected Hua Shu, and endured the punishment of ninety-nine and eighty-one commandments. Just like Lanfeng gave Hua Shu the stars when she was young, Lanfeng's love is as bright as the stars, romantic, beautiful, bright and magnanimous.
During the shooting, in order to highlight Lanfeng’s gentle and jade-like temperament, we prepared antique props such as folding fans and oil-paper umbrellas for him. Whether it is a group photo or a solo movie, he highlights the upright temperament of his character in front of the camera. He is handsome without restraint, but also calm and self-sufficient.
The handsome ghost king was originally "one body with two sides"
He Kailang played two roles in "The Hidden God", playing the roles of Ao Ge and Xiu Yan with very different personalities. Ao Ge and Xiu Yan are twin brothers who were born in the ancient world of gods. The younger brother Aoge was born in the destiny department, and the older brother Xiuyan was born in the destiny department. The God Realm appointed Ao Ge as the Lord of the Heavenly Palace and commanded the Heavenly Realm; he appointed Xiuyan as the King of Youming, the guide on the road to the underworld.
Xiuyan/Ao Ge (played by He Kailang)
However, a battle against demons 70,000 years ago broke the fate of the two. During the battle, Xiuyan used the method of military solution to fight against the demon Mingqi, and re-sealed the Jiuyuan Evil Prison and the demon Mingqi. This cost Xiuyan a heavy price, causing his inner elixir to be scattered throughout the world. Thanks to Ao Ge who found the fragments of Xiuyan's inner elixir and used his own body to help him cultivate the inner elixir, Xiuyan "survived".
From then on, Ao Ge and Xiu Yan became one and the same. Ao Ge voluntarily gave up his identity as Emperor of Heaven and became King Youming instead of Xiu Yan. Ao Ge led the way to Huangquan while building Xiuyan Tower. He tried every means to exchange for rare treasures with deep spiritual power in the three realms and helped Xiuyan cultivate the inner elixir fragments. This operation lasted for tens of thousands of years.
The story of Ao Ge and Xiu Yan is a story related to sacrifice and choice. During the shooting, in order to express the "two sides of one body" between Ao Ge and Xiu Yan, we borrowed elements of masks from the drama - He Kailang covered his face with bamboo leaves, and mostly appeared in profile, in order to create a sense of mystery and obscure the characters. The other side of "invisible". The smoke lingering around him also brought out the taboos and unknowns of him as "the guide to the underworld".
They in the blockbuster interpret three characters and demonstrate three kinds of deep feelings.
They make people believe that deep love has nothing to do with anything else and is not measured by material things. It is the poetry and romance of life.
If you can have a deep love, you will have no regrets in this life.
