How long has it been since you have watched a serious tomb robbing drama?

When talking about tomb robbing dramas, we have to mention two IPs - "Tomb Raiders Notes" and " Ghost Blowing the Lamp ".

Dramas such as "The Qinling Sacred Tree", "Ultimate Notes" and "Restart" adapted from the "Tomb Raiders" series have made Zhu Yilong, Cheng Yi, Zeng Shunxi, Xiao Yuliang and many others shine.

It’s just that there are too many adapted versions of the same IP, which will inevitably cause aesthetic fatigue to the audience.

In comparison, the adaptations of the "Ghost Blowing Lamp" series are much smarter.

After several waves of testing, the "Iron Triangle" composed of Pan Yueming, Zhang Yuqi, and Jiang Chao has become deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Even if the quality of the series is uneven, many viewers are following this combination.

After " Nanhai Return to Ruins " ended last year, viewers who love to watch tomb robbing dramas fell into endless waiting.

Fortunately, it is finally here -

" Hidden Sea Flower " was aired and won the first place on the list. The tomb robbing drama ushered in a new "iron triangle". I won't say much about whether this drama will work or not. , let’s take a quick look.

The opening is fascinating and the suspense is endless

The story of "Hidden Sea Flower" is a continuation of "Tomb Raiders Notes". The two are related in storyline and characters, but they are two different stories.

Of course, a good story will definitely set a hook to attract the audience.

The first hook laid in "The Flower of the Hidden Sea" is the mysterious ancient Zhang family house.

Zhang Qiling (played by Zhang Kangle) went to the ancient Zhang family house for many days and did not come back. Wu Xie (played by Xu Zhenxuan) and Wang Fatzi (played by Wang Bowen), who were still teenagers, brought equipment to find someone.

However, after climbing in from the entrance, there were ashes and traces of fighting everywhere, and the house exuded a strange atmosphere.

The two of them continued to move forward, but saw a group of dried bodies. In the innermost part of the room, Zhang Qiling was wrapped in several layers of clothes and had a weak pulse.

As soon as the camera turned, Wu Xie woke up from the bed, but what just happened was not a dream. Zhang Qiling was rescued, but he could not find the lost memory in the Zhang family's ancient house.

After Zhang Qiling regained consciousness, he made a ten-year agreement with Wu Xie. Unintentionally, Wu Xie knew that Zhang Qiling had concealed the truth and endured ten years of torture for him.

During the past ten years, Wu Xie also worked hard to practice his skills and waited for news about Zhang Qiling. In order to repay the other party, Wu Xie planned to retrieve Zhang Qiling's memory.

The second hook of this drama has also surfaced - the mystery of Zhang Qiling's life experience.

More than ten years later, middle-aged Wu Xie (played by Zhang Luyi) accidentally found clues from the beads left by Zhang Qiling and set out for the small overseas country of Mozang.

In a post office, Wu Xie found an oil painting by Zhang Qiling. Under the guidance of the locals, he came to the Gila monastery, where Wu Xie found new clues.

Practitioner Yu Da (played by Yao Anlian) at the ashram said that he knew Zhang Qiling and organized the other person's memory fragments into memory scrolls. After that, he took Wu Xie to the room where Zhang Qiling lived.

As a series of coincidences happened, Wu Xie realized that his arrival at Mo Sang was not accidental, but was designed by others.

People from all walks of life gathered at the Gila Practice Ground, and everyone embarked on a new journey. This time, can Wu Xie solve all the mysteries?

The biggest attraction of "The Flower of the Hidden Sea" is still the fantasy and unknown.

In this opening, the suspense is laid, the tension is in place, and the real adventure drama has begun.

The actors' acting skills are stable, and a new "iron triangle" is coming

A wonderful story is important, but to be stable, it depends on the characters.

has an excellent background in the original work. The characters in "Flower of the Hidden Sea" are plump and three-dimensional. Don't worry, it will just depend on the performance of the actors.

I have to say that the director of "The Flower of the Hidden Sea" has something special, and the actors he selected are better than the last. Let's talk about them one by one.

ranked first, Zhang Luyi.

There is no doubt that Zhang Luyi is definitely a capable actor.

In "三级", his interpretation of Wang Miao is gentle and restrained, with the unique elegance of a scientist. Even when he collapsed to the point of being unable to control himself, he did not make a fuss. One look made people feel his helplessness.

In the new drama, Zhang Luyi challenges the role of Wu Xie. His image is quite different from the character expected by the audience, but as soon as he appears, the character's gloomy cruelty and mature characteristics instantly match each other.

Zhang Lu’s version of Wu Xie is also worth looking forward to.

second place, Zhang Kangle.

This new actor is undoubtedly the most surprising actor in "The Flower of the Hidden Sea".

Zhang Kangle's image is a bit immature, but he plays Zhang Qiling's mature temperament while retaining the mystery of the character. From his eyes, lines to the details of the performance, everything is quite well done, as if he is a character who stepped out of the original work. Same.

I believe that after this drama, Chi Zhang Kangle will also become popular with this role.

The third place is Yao Anlian.

Yao Anlian is also an old acquaintance of the audience. He has performed wonderfully in many popular dramas such as "Rebel" and " Celebrating More Than Years 2", which is impressive.

In the new drama, Yao Anlian plays the role of Yu Da, a practitioner. He looks strong, has a steady demeanor, and his inadvertent expressions are a bit playful.

The details in Yao Anlian’s performance also hint to the audience that the character itself seems to be hiding a huge secret, waiting for everyone to explore. This kind of advanced role requires an experienced actor like him to perform the essence.

ranked fourth, Chen Minghao .

Chen Minghao has left many classic roles on the screen, such as Ma Desheng in " The Long Season ", Wang Dayong in " Three Brigades ", etc.

However, the role that first brought Chen Minghao out of the industry was undoubtedly Fatty Wang in "Sea of ​​Sand". He fully performed what Fatty Wang should look like in the audience's mind, and there was no fault in his image or acting skills.

In "The Flower of the Hidden Sea", Chen Minghao once again played the role of Fatty Wang, which can only be described as "stable". Even though he has not yet appeared in the feature film, his acting skills never disappoint the audience.

In addition, characters played by Wen Yongshan, Wei Qianxiang, Bai Bing, Lian Yiming and other actors will also appear, and the audience will have a good time to watch.

Conclusion:

Looking at today’s Chinese drama market, the theme of tomb robbing has increasingly fallen into the rut of past creations. Following the trend, following the trend, and shoddy works have seriously damaged the reputation and appetite of this genre.

Can "The Flower of the Hidden Sea" break the situation? At least judging from the few episodes aired, it has this capability.

Various details in the drama are as if they were taken from the original work, refreshing the audience's expectations. There is no shortage of various special effects scenes and big action scenes, and the natural sense of horror instantly draws the audience into the drama.

coupled with the actors’ excellent acting skills and high adaptability to the characters, it can enrich the audience’s experience of watching the drama. From the plot to the acting, there is no fault.

Next, what other exciting stories will appear in the play? Look forward to it!
