opens high and closes high!
Zhao Liying , Lin Gengxin 's ancient puppet " and Feng Xing " became the most popular small-screen work during the Qingming period.
Before its launch, "Traveling with the Phoenix" had set a record for a new drama with tens of millions of bookings on both platforms. Some media even called the heroine Zhao Liying "a life-saving straw in the industry".
The super popularity of the leading actors and the appeal of the ancient puppet theme have also given "Traveling with the Phoenix" the popularity it deserves after it was aired. Although there were some bumps in word-of-mouth in the mid-term, it still ended up with an astonishing market share and single-day play rate.
couldn’t wait to post slogans from the platform: “King of New Year Dramas”, “Hot No. 1 in 2024”, and “Not as good as “ Sauvignon Blanc ””. Netizens can also feel the investors’ satisfaction with the work.
85花 Zhao Liying's ability to carry dramas and Lin Gengxin's popularity have been verified again.
However, while many parties are celebrating the conclusion of the screening of the works, the male and female protagonists of "Walking with the Phoenix" Zhao Liying and Lin Gengxin have also faced doubts and condemnations from many netizens: speculation cp. The cp topics of
and
have basically never stopped since the broadcast.
is not only a hot search carousel.
The actors' private interactions are also particularly positive.
When the sweet consummation plot was aired, Zhao Liying and Lin Gengxin's off-site candid attracted a large number of onlookers.
The main character sprinkles sugar, CP fans are partying, and most of the actors’ only fans are in a harmonious state. It is rare that the topic of "fan marriage" of the male and female protagonists appears. Obviously, it is a win-win situation for the protagonist.
As for other netizens, the judgments are more polarized.
Some netizens complained that they did not want to see the excessive business of elderly CPs.
However, some netizens feel that it has become a common practice for actors from ancient and modern puppets to work together to serve the audience.
Looking back on the romance genre in the past, the male and female protagonists are indeed generous in their business, and they are even more appreciated by drama fans.
The harmonious friendship between the protagonists Yang Zi and Li Xian in " Dear, Loved ", the generous interaction between the male and female protagonists Jing Tian and Xu Kai in " Le You Yuan " during the broadcast of the drama, All have received a lot of praise.
In the minds of many drama fans, if actors maintain the atmosphere of their characters during the broadcast of the work, the audience will have a better experience following the drama.
Actors who star in romantic themes but avoid CP interactions in private will mostly be criticized. When "Everyday Life" was aired, the male and female protagonists were complained by fans of the drama for being too avoidant.
The controversial point of the cloud singing event in "Liu Li" is also the reason why netizens believe that the male protagonist Cheng Yi avoids interacting with the female protagonist.
Obviously, ancient and modern idol CPs have been supported in the past if they maintain the character atmosphere and operate generously. Why is it that in "Walking with the Phoenix", the update of Zhao Liying Lin was questioned ?
Objectively speaking, there is nothing out of the ordinary about the interaction between Zhao Liying and Lin Gengxin. The two of them are old friends and have collaborated on " Chu Qiao Biography ". The interaction is mostly about raising the atmosphere.
Only for CP fans and some loyal drama fans, this kind of "business", the favorable impression is far greater than the unfavorable impression. It could have become a CP carnival for drama fans who are cute and friendly to some drama fans.
The reason why there are a lot of excessive voices of "hyping CP" has emerged. Qi Hua believes that the problem is not actually the interactive behavior of the actors, but that relative to the work, CP-related topics are too " over ".
Regardless of whether the audience has watched "Traveling with Feng" or not, netizens have basically been fascinated by the CPs of Zhao Liying and Lin Gengxin in recent days. CP fans will enjoy the sweetness, while ordinary netizens will only see the marketing flavor.
accused the actor of excessive speculation on CP. The actor himself and CP fans would probably feel wronged.
Other dramas are being speculated, why can’t Zhao Liying and Lin Xinxin be speculated? The male and female leads in other dramas have been well received, but why were they criticized when it came to Zhao Liying and Lin Gengxin?
What's more, Zhao Liyinglin's updated CP combination has a very large fan base.
In the seven-year-old "The Legend of Chu Qiao", the two's CP has already become a big hit, and they have a large number of CP fans and casual fans. In addition, due to the unpredictable ending of "The Legend of Chu Qiao", there have been viewers who have been grudges against Xing Yue for many years. Yu Huai.
The more "uneasy" a CP is, the more likely it will become Bai Yueguang in the hearts of fans as time goes on. The reason why "Hong Kong Phoenix" has been so popular since the official announcement period is that Xing Yue CP's co-starring contribution is indispensable.
All parties are also very good at taking advantage of this popularity. Even in the launch trailer of "Traveling with the Phoenix", the platform could not help but attack Xingyue CP and cut off the relationship between past and present lives.
The comment area on topics related to "Traveling with the Phoenix" is basically dominated by the male and female CPs. Some of them have difficulty settling their feelings after consummation. Some people want to see Zhao Liying "play" Lin Gengxin, and some people are fighting against the CP consummation.
So when Zhao Liying and Lin Gengxin cooperated in the business, and the drama studio or the platform added fuel to the flames, the enthusiasm of CP fans exploded instantly. Maybe the hot searches for CP were marketing, but the enthusiasm under the hot searches was real.
Actors' business and CP fans' expectations go in both directions, and the popularity effect is doubled. It will inevitably make Zhao Liying and Lin Gengxin's "business" look more active and enthusiastic than the male and female protagonists of other dramas.
But if it is unreasonable to accuse viewers who are tired of cp speculation, they should also be very unjust.
Because there are viewers who will feel satisfied as long as CP is sweet enough, and there are also viewers who don’t just want CP and focus on the overall plot, the orientations of the two sides are different.
The data of "Walking with the Phoenix" is very good and the CP is very sweet. There is no doubt about this, but we also have to admit that it is not a phenomenal hit drama like "Hurry Up". In fact, it is a bit "biased". division".
In terms of visual effects, "Traveling with the Phoenix" is considered to be the best among ancient puppets. Director Deng Ke's aesthetics collided with mythology and fantasy, creating many stunning and beautiful pictures. With the addition of excellent lens language, the actors of
also allowed the audience to see even more outstanding charm.
Zhao Liying's good looks and Lin Gengxin's divinity are all elements that will leave a deep impression on the audience in "Traveling with the Phoenix". Objectively speaking, even if they don't speculate on CP, the two have strong potential to attract fans. .
However, "Xing Feng" has outstanding advantages and disadvantages.
The narrative rhythm and conflicts of the whole drama are too "flat". The story is told in a gentle way and the opposition between the good and the villain is presented in a gentle way. If viewed as a complete work, it looks very much like a fairy tale about farming.
This kind of story can be expressed in words. You can imagine the charm of each character and experience the author's creativity through words. However, if you express it through lenses, you can't put them together to give the ultimate dramatic tension of film and television works.
If it weren't for the support of actors with strong nationality, it would be difficult for this kind of rhythm to achieve such a high reputation.
This has led to many viewers who are not just here to consume CP, but they have lost their passion after chasing it. They will treat it as a meal when there are no other meal replacements, but there is no such strong filter.
Now that the works have been screened and concluded, the only plot that made a big splash is "Shen Li's consummation".
seems to be very lively, and the audiences who are addicted to Shenli and Xingzhi Love have supported the popularity of the work, but from another point of view, we can also find that there is almost nothing interesting about the plot other than the CP of this drama.
Many classic lines, actors’ outfits, out-of-the-ring moments, and supporting roles that made "Kurst" popular, and the heroine of "Flower Bones" became a hit and brought everyone to the table at the same time, most of them are here in "Traveling with the Phoenix" does not exist.
The only thing that remains standing in this drama from beginning to end is cp.
Under such circumstances, viewers who abandoned the show midway, viewers who are not very loyal, and netizens who are forced to use CP due to hot search marketing can easily develop a rebellious mentality. The CP business is highlighted as if it is being speculated because it is too "prominent".
When a drama impresses the audience with its overall quality, the CP business will complement the reputation of the work. When a drama has shortcomings that affect its reputation outside the industry, the CP business can easily become a target.
