This year’s costume dramas made people feel sad and happy.
" Celebrating More Than Years 2" has made a strong comeback and is as popular as the first season. It is well deserved to be the king of dramas.
" Mo Yuyunjian " has captured the audience's taste with its heroine's revengeful drama and is very popular.
However, there are also dramas such as "Yan Xin Ji" and " Degrees of Hua Nian " that have mediocre response and average popularity.
But apart from these, there are many dramas to be aired that are worth looking forward to.
Yang Zi and Li Xian's "National Color Youth" has been completed, and "Sifangguan" starring Tan Jianci is also highly anticipated.
Although these two dramas are still far away, there is news about a costume drama recently.
"Sichuan Brocade" has been reviewed and certified, and it seems that it will be broadcast on Ku soon.
Judging from the trailer, this drama has a classical charm, a clear main plot, strong actors, and full potential to become a hit.
01 The plot is passionate and inspirational
"Sichuan Brocade Family" tells the story of Ji Yingying (Tan Songyun), the daughter of the Ji family of Huanhua Dyeing Shop in Yizhou in the late Tang Dynasty. She is extremely talented and becomes famous with her unique dyeing techniques.
But he is hampered in every way by Zhao Xiuyuan (played by Zhang Haowei), the son of the Zhao family, a wealthy brocade weaver.
Yang Jinglan (played by Zheng Yecheng), the son of the King Jin family, and Ji Yingying worked together to solve the difficulties and jointly mediate with foreign enemies, finally protecting the Shu Brocade and carrying it forward.
It is not difficult to see from the trailer and synopsis that this drama follows the heroine's journey of inheriting, maintaining, and starting a business. There are two highlights worthy of attention.
Highlight 1: The growth history of the heroine.
Dramas with female protagonists have become a common type in the past two years. The popularity of "In the Clouds" has once again proved the status of female-led dramas in the market.
However, either the female lead has more roles or she is the main female lead.
How can I be considered a great heroine if I think about falling in love every day? A real great heroine thinks about how to achieve a career, such as Ji Yingying.
She is talented. After her father died unexpectedly, she shouldered the burden of inheriting the entire family and technology, and she also had to face the oppression of the big brocade weavers.
Who said that women cannot be brave and high-spirited?
With such determination, she not only preserved the family business, but also promoted the weaving and dyeing techniques of Shu brocade.
This is the growth process of Ji Yingying from being protected by her parents to taking charge of herself. Experience and experience are the precious wealth that the heroine gains along the way. Only with such a pattern can
be called a heroine.
Highlight 2: The connection between personal destiny and the righteousness of the family and the country.
This drama is not limited to personal growth, but further connects personal destiny with the righteousness of the family and the country, making the plot richer.
In the play, the secret recipes of each major brocade weaver in Yizhou are coveted by Nanzhao Wang Sheng Fengze.
Ji Yingying stepped forward to protect the Yizhou craftsmen, and Yang Jinglan also went deep into Nanzhao. The two worked together to resist the foreign enemies and let Shu Brocade prosper again.
The rise and fall of Shu Brocade is related to Ji Yingying's fate, and her attitude of being neither humble nor overbearing in the face of foreign enemies not only preserves the tradition, but also demonstrates the righteousness of her family and country.
So this is a real heroine drama, which shows the power of women, is warm, inspirational, and sentimental, and is not inferior to " Celebrating More Than Years " with a male theme.
's richly layered plot is inseparable from the strong strength of the creative team.
Liu Haibo, the director of the play, has directed "Tiansheng Long Song" and "Thirteen Years of Ashes", which shows that he has very precise control of the rhythm of the plot.
Shao Changyong, the art director of the drama, has a great background. He has served as the art director of many classic domestic dramas such as "Langya Bang", " Dajiang Dahe" and "The Pretender". He is responsible for the art of this drama. You can't go wrong.
02The actors are very capable.
The creative team not only put great effort into the plot, but also have a unique eye for casting.
First up is the heroine, Tan Songyun.
From a young campus heroine to a working woman, Tan Songyun has completed her transformation. Although she looks sweet, her tenacity is her weapon in shaping her character.
Although " You are more beautiful than Starlight " has many flaws in the plot, Tan Songyun's performance is as stable as ever. In
's new drama, she plays the heroine Ji Yingying, who has a strong personality, is smart, and can stand upright in front of big things. In the trailer of
, Ji Yingying hangs up the "Sichuan Red" sign and stands beside the flag with a happy smile on her face. She is much calmer than the former Ji Yingying.
From personality to image, Tan Songyun is perfect for this role.
ranked second, Zhang Haowei.
Zhang Haowei played the role of Prince Li Chengqian in "Celebrating More Than Years" and was recognized by many audiences. His performance in the play is remarkable, and he is considered a hot actor at the moment.
In the new drama, His Royal Highness’s status has plummeted and he has become Zhao Xiuyuan, the son of a wealthy brocade family in Yizhou.
Zhao Xiuyuan is in love with the heroine, so he hates her because of his love and makes things difficult for the heroine everywhere. In the
trailer, he is sitting in a carriage looking out the window, his eyes dark and unclear, with a sense of calm madness.
This role, like Li Chengqian, has great contrast between the inside and outside. It is easy for Zhang Haowei to play such a role.
ranked third, Chen Xiaojun.
Chen Xiaojun has frequently appeared in costume dramas in the past few years. She has appeared in "Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace", "Qing Qing's Daily Life" and "Yi Nian Guan Shan". She has gained the love of many audiences with her superior costume appearance.
In the new drama, she plays the role of Yu Linglong. Her red dress is eye-catching, her high bun makes her look neater, and her smile is gentle and generous.
In the stills, she is holding a sword in one hand and a wine bottle in the other, which makes her even more free-spirited and heroic.
The role of Chen Xiaojun is very eye-catching. As long as he performs normally, he will definitely be in the circle.
ranks fourth, surpassing.
In "Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace", Ling Yunche, played by Jing Chao, left a deep impression on the audience. In " Ode to Joy 4", the scumbag Jian Chuanxi played by him also made the audience very angry.
In the new drama, Jing Chao plays Nanzhao Wang Sheng Fengze. Judging from his identity, this character is probably a villain.
However, in the trailer, Sheng Fengze does not look at the heroine like he is looking at his opponent. This character seems to have ulterior motives for the heroine.
hopes that this villain with "affectionate" eyes can help Jingchao regain its reputation.
In addition, there are actors such as Zheng Yecheng and Wang Yinuo in the play. The actors and roles are well matched, and the overall lineup is very strong. As long as the overall performance is as usual, the plot will definitely not disappoint the audience.
03 Conclusion
From " The Legend of Chu Qiao " to " Meng Hua Lu ", then to "National Beauty Youth" and "Sichuan Brocade Family", costume dramas with heroines have never left the audience's field of vision. The popularity of these dramas also reflects the psychology of the audience.
Initially, the female characters shown in this type of plot broke the stereotype of strong men and weak women in ordinary ancient puppet dramas, allowing people to see a different image of women than in the past.
Then a large number of group portraits of female characters like "Meng Hua Lu" began to appear, and the female images displayed in the drama became more diverse.
But today’s audiences are no longer satisfied with creating diverse female images. Instead, women can become the center of the story and hold their destiny in their own hands.
Compared with revenge dramas, "Shu Jin Family" writes a more complete history of women's growth, relying on personal inner strength to truly control their own destiny.
I believe that once this "Sichuan Brocade" is aired, it will definitely break the ratings record and reach the peak of costume dramas.
