There are many branches of domestic costume dramas, but there is one theme that people never tire of -
That is costume martial arts comedy. The most classic of
is " Wulin Gaiden ". At that time, a group of little-known actors got together and formed a world.
How many people’s childhood memories were created while laughing and scolding?
It's a pity that the inn is closed, the show is over, and no matter how many regrets there are, they will become a thing of the past.
However, in the past two years, as the audience's laughter has increased, it has become more difficult to get ahead with this type of subject matter, but the works are more expensive than more expensive.
From "Legend of the Magpie Sword" to "Lotus Tower", the audience has seen that martial arts comedy has not declined, but is about to open up a new path.
But I think the audience, like me, misses the most about the strong liquor that made me drunk as soon as I drank it.
No, Shang Jing takes action!
"Wulin Gaiden" director Shang Jing's another masterpiece " Happy Heroes: Young Heroes Gaiden " is here. It only took one day to air, and it directly shot to the first place in the comedy drama list on the site, and the popularity exploded.
I want to see what's going on? I caught up with 6 episodes in one go, and I just want to say: Yes, the classic is back!
01
The Jianghu flavor is strong, and the plot is chewy.
"The Story of Happy Heroes" revolves around four young heroes with different personalities: Guo Dalu ( Baike ), Wang Dong ( Sun Yizhou ), Lin Taiping () Yang Jue () and Yan Qi ( Lan Yingying ()). The plot of
tells the story of how they gathered together in the "Bai Lao Hui" gang in Fugui Villa due to a combination of circumstances, experienced a series of ridiculous things, gained growth, and adhered to the justice in their hearts.
What are the two elements for the success of costume comedy? looks at the plot first and the group portraits second.
1, plot
The story begins, and the ceremony for the successor of the "Bai Lao Hui" is about to begin.
But the first master and the second master are fighting. Do you think it will be a flash of swords and a shaking of the earth?
The two of them were tugging at each other's ears because they refused to give in on the issue of borrowing money and repaying it.
Wait, why do I feel that this is not a serious gang?
And if nothing else happens, something will happen.
As soon as the front leg heir was confirmed, his back leg was seriously injured and his men rushed to stop him.
Reason - there is a traitor!
Among the three heirs, which one is the traitor? The leader of
was so anxious that he decided to blow them up. As a result, the three of them knelt down together, and they all became mutinous.
The plot twists and turns again and again. Both the rhythm and the laughter have the flavor of "Wulin Gaiden". But what I care more about is whether the former can take such a classic and plump group portrait of the latter?
2, group portrait
The main content does not revolve around three leaders, but four young people.
Guo Dalu, who has his own unlucky attributes, Wang Dong, who is in love, Lin Taiping, who is pretending to be a pig and eats tigers, and Yan Qi, who is pretending to be a man, form an unreliable detective team.
"The four cobblers stink to death of Zhuge Liang."
The target of this first case is the fictitious "Crazy Cross Sword". You can already imagine how confusing the subsequent plot will be.
It can be said that Shang Jing knew what was going on as soon as he made a move, and he used misunderstandings to make the plot dramatic.
Moreover, the martial arts part is more exciting than serious martial arts dramas. Coupled with the group portraits of the characters, this scene brings all the creatures to life. It can be said that the more you watch it, the more interesting it becomes!

Comedy big names come together
The protagonists and supporting characters of "Wulin Gaiden" back then left a deep impression on people. In the final analysis, it was because of the good selection of actors.
And this new drama is no exception. Comedians appear one after another, how can it not be funny?
ranks first, Jia Bing .
Jia Bing proved her comedy ability to the audience with her role as "Xu Jiang" in "Hurry".
So viewers don’t panic when they see his name. Jia Bing is still reliable when he doesn’t act in sketches.
No, the land dragon king he plays in the new drama has a mouth that smells like dirt, and his sentences are also funny.
"Close the trap!", "Grudge, whine, whine!" , seeing his men severely injured but unable to tell who the traitor is, Jia Bing's state is really acting like me.
Although the performance is still indispensable, his joining will definitely make the whole drama even better.
ranked second, Liu Yajin.
"Shangguan Yun Dun" is also here!
As a national first-class actor, Liu Yajin must be familiar to the audience.
He doesn't appear in many scenes in "Wulin Gaiden", but the characteristics of the "Smiling Tiger" are well understood, and the ending of being bitten to death by a poisonous scorpion is also very satisfying.
In the new drama, he is finally no longer the villain, but the second leader of the Bailaohui. He is shrewd and worldly, and plays a responsible role with his brain power.
A good actor does not need to be too deliberate in his performance. With a turn of his eyes and a raise of his eyebrows, the soul of the character is established.
The third place is Li Xiaoqiang.
"Shu Shushu~Fenfenfen~Brother has found a job!"
Speaking of this line, do you also have a picture in your mind?
Li Xiaoqiang also played an unforgettable scene in "Wulin Gaiden" as a bandit leader with a magical accent who pretended to be a waiter.
As for Nangong Chou, who he plays in the new drama, his every move is quite grand, and he has the demeanor of a gang leader.
With these three actors in charge, why worry about failing in their acting skills?
ranked fourth, Sun Yizhou.
Among Mesozoic actors, Sun Yizhou has always been underestimated.
originally thought he could only play "Lu Ziqiao", but he made the new role vivid in " Solid as a Rock " and " Flying Life 2".
Comedy talent + acting ability, this is his biggest advantage.
Although the Wang Dong he plays in the new drama is a calm and reserved character, there is no sense of disobedience in the performance, and the scenes are smooth and smooth.
"I choose Lu Xiaobu, he is the one everyone hopes for!"
Sun Yizhou, it's time to become popular.
is fifth, Bai Ke.
In the field of "coward characters", the powerful actor who can compete with Lei Jiayin is undoubtedly Baike.
This time, the character Guo Dalu he plays in the new drama is also an unlucky man. When he sees that he is wanted, he looks confused, which is hilarious.
He is the only person responsible for the comedy in the subsequent plot.
In addition, Lan Yingying and Yang Jue are all young actors familiar to the audience. They have outstanding roles and masterpieces, and their acting skills are good.
And Fan Ming, Yan Ni, Jiang Chao, Hong Jiantaothese "old guys" in "Wulin Gaiden" will also appear as guest stars. How many people's DNA has been moved?

Conclusion
"Happy Heroes: Young Heroes Gaiden" has been completed as early as 2018, and has been backlogged for nearly 6 years. It is not easy to meet the audience.
However, due to the long backlog, it can be clearly felt that the service and scene layout are out of date.
Fortunately, this kind of costume comedy theme will not affect the perception because of these problems.
Just like we are still enjoying watching "Wulin Gaiden" now, good dramas will not fade with the passage of time, but will become more and more popular as time goes by.
Moreover, the new drama is very careful in terms of plot, group portraits and fighting scenes. The only problem with
is that the leading actors lack traffic celebrities. In this era of traffic-first, if you want to stand out, you can only look at the content behind it.
However, at least for now, the show's style is down-to-earth and has a classic feel.
As for the wine in Jianghu, whoever can brew it well will win the favor of the audience.
But whether it can really gain popularity and reputation, we have to wait and see!
I wonder if you still want to continue watching the drama?
