I watched these domestic dramas in July that looked like old ladies’ feet, and I really couldn’t get the slightest interest in following them!
" You are more beautiful than the starlight ", originally because the combination of Xu Kai and Tan Songyun was so addictive and addictive, it was so sweet that the first half of the plot was almost full of laughter.
However, in order to increase the conflict, the heroine was forcibly intellectualized, which directly caused the story of the two to turn from sweet to sad, instantly breaking the look and rhythm of the entire drama.
can only say that the length of this drama is not very clever!
"The Strange Stories of the Tang Dynasty: Journey to the West" that I have been waiting for for two years is not much better, especially the first case at the beginning. There are so many characters that it is difficult to remember them at a glance. In order to forcibly create suspense,
also played the trick of all suspects. It is completely a mysterious costume suspense.
It’s really sad that these highly anticipated dramas have been cancelled. I believe many viewers have fallen into drama starvation, right?
Unexpectedly, the Chinese drama market directly released a cruel move. The fantasy drama of the Republic of China, which had not been seen for a long time, launched a new drama called " Ice and Snow Ballad ".
Good guy! After only airing 4 episodes, it has become a huge hit and received rave reviews on Douban. This time, Goose Factory has won again!
1. The opening three scenes are fascinating, and the fantasy setting is very novel.
Although I cannot evaluate the quality of a drama without watching it in its entirety, the attractiveness of the opening will directly determine whether the audience is interested in following it.
And this "Ice and Snow Ballad" uses the plots of the previous episodes to steadily retain the audience. Just looking at the story layout will make people curious.
The first scene, murder.
Shen Zhiheng (played by Gao Weiguang ) left alone after attending the full moon banquet at Mi Mansion, but he never expected to be murdered by Li Yingliang (played by Ren Shihao ).
The other party sent three people to follow Shen Zhiheng, knocked him down when he was unprepared, and then shot him between the eyebrows. But miraculously, Shen Zhiheng did not fall to the ground in response, but instead killed the two of them with his backhand.
When one of them saw this, he immediately took out two machine guns and fired at Shen Zhiheng. Then he drove over him three times before leaving with peace of mind.
The protagonist dies at the beginning. Is this drama so big?
But in the blink of an eye, Shen Zhiheng, who was lying in a pool of blood one second, disappeared the next second.
is weird, really weird. Who is Shen Zhiheng? Did someone save him?
This scene alone planted a question in the audience's mind, and the answer is hidden in the next two scenes.
The second scene, rebirth.
The Mi family is hosting a full moon banquet. In addition to the important figure Shen Zhiheng, there is also the tragic fate of the eldest daughter of the Mi family, Mi Lan ( played by Ouyang Nana ).
Because she was born as a daughter and was born blind, she was not liked by her father. Her mother blamed her for not being favored and beat her hard.
On a blizzard night, Mi Lan, who was hopeless, ran away from home and decided to freeze herself to death, so she found a ruined temple.
However, Shen Zhiheng, who had just been beaten into a sieve and his bones were crushed, appeared in this ruined temple. Not only was he not dead, he was still alive and well, but the injuries on his body were still there.
The appearance of Mi Lan was Shen Zhiheng's life-saving straw. He used Mi Lan to find a doctor who could save him. Mi Lan also gave up the idea of committing suicide because he was concerned about Shen Zhiheng's life and death.
Shen Zhiheng's identity was thus revealed. He is immortal because he has lived for hundreds of years and his body has the ability to heal itself.
The reason why he has such special abilities stems from a massacre that occurred a hundred years ago.
The third scene, fate.
Shen Zhiheng, who has lived alone for hundreds of years, wants to find his younger brother who has the same memory and bloodthirsty as him.
But the other party was elusive and extremely hidden. Shen Zhiheng searched hard to no avail and could only find clues through various messages.
The murder of the Shen family back then was caused by his younger brother's biological mother. He was a bloodthirsty monster who was considered ominous by the family and decided to set him on fire to death. However, she was eager to save her son and slaughtered the entire Shen family.
Because Shen Zhiheng was kind-hearted and begged for mercy, he was rescued by him with a blood amber stone, thus gaining the power of extreme speed.
But Shen Zhiheng, who is neither human nor ghost, is suffering from this. He does not want to make a living by eating human blood, and he urgently needs to find his younger brother to solve the mystery.
A fateful and entangled showdown has been foreshadowed for hundreds of years, and the encounter and mutual redemption of the male and female protagonists are also a fate that neither of them can escape.
These three scenes complete the suspenseful atmosphere of the whole play. When did Shen Zhiheng meet his younger brother? How to solve the mystery behind him? And what kind of hatred is there between Li Yingliang and Shen Zhiheng, who have always been at odds with him?
Second, Gao Weiguang got the "Script of Life", Ouyang Nana's acting skills completely transformed
A fascinating story is the key to retaining the audience, and the actors' acting skills are a bonus.
In the plot of the first few episodes, Shen Zhiheng, played by Gao Weiguang, accounted for the most scenes. He successfully performed this character who has experienced a hundred years of solitude and is used to seeing life and death indifferently and calmly.
also staged the mystery of a master who possesses rapid power but hides these skills.
But when he treats the heroine, he is in a completely different state. There is distress and pity in his eyes. When they first met, they did not feel such strong love, but there was tenderness that touched people's hearts.
The role of Shen Zhiheng seems to be tailor-made for Gao Weiguang. He is cold and handsome, restrained and calm, but does not lose his domineering and bloody nature. This time Gao Weiguang really got the "life script".
Compared with Gao Weiguang, whose acting skills are stable, Ouyang Nana's performance is impressive. Just by watching the first few episodes, you can feel that her acting skills have completely transformed.
The most impressive scene is when he found out that he had regained his sight. He was excited and happy, and his eyes filled with tears for a moment, which fully expressed his emotions and made me feel pity for him.
But he soon lost his sight, his eyes dimmed instantly, and his whole body exuded a dead breath. This level of performance can generally only be seen in powerful people.
Therefore, Ouyang Nana also acted very immersively, without holding back at all.
Conclusion
After watching the first few episodes of "Ballad of Ice and Snow", you can instantly understand why this drama has received unanimous praise from everyone.
First, the plot is nested layer by layer.
The suspense is laid out in one scene after another, and the amount of information is full. In the case that the fantasy setting is already more curious, the curiosity is pushed to the top through the plot, which naturally attracts people to continue to follow. drama.
The second is the success in casting.
Gao Weiguang's performance as Shen Zhiheng is undoubtedly the genius of this drama, and Ouyang Nana is also very precise in her choice. She has the temperament of a wealthy lady, so she can play her fragility in a lovable way.
These are the two key factors for the success of a drama. Let’s learn about domestic dramas!
