If we want to say that the most surprising genre in the domestic drama market this year, it is undoubtedly the costume detective drama.

In the sluggish situation of popular genres such as ancient puppet dramas and suspense dramas, costume detective dramas have become dark horses in the domestic drama market. "The Tang Dynasty's Strange Stories from the West" scored a high score of 8.6 on Douban.

Prior to this, "Apocalypse" and "The Case of Di Gong of the Tang Dynasty" both received mediocre responses and fell far short of the audience's expectations. The last hit movie like this can be traced back to " Royal Gift Xiaowu Work ".

Is it possible that after the popularity of "Tang Dynasty Strange Stories: Journey West", the audience will have to wait for several years to see the next hit?

Don’t worry, there is new news about a costume detective drama.

It is reported online that "Wuyoudu" has restarted its pre-broadcast investment promotion and is expected to meet the audience in November.

The plot of this drama is novel and the atmosphere is thrilling. After watching the trailer, I just want to say that this drama is expected to become another hit among the costume detective dramas.

01 Oriental fantasy, legends of monsters, and thrilling plot

"Wuyoudu" tells the story of the mysterious background of the monster hunter Xuan Ye ( Ren Jialun ) and the girl Banxia ( Song Zuer ) who can see monsters. They jointly investigate a series of strange cases in a world where humans and demons coexist.

As their relationship heats up, Banxia finally reveals the secret of Xuan Ye after the two experienced separation and reunion.

There are two highlights in this drama that are worth looking forward to.

Highlight 1: The fantasy world in anecdotes.

Compared with the common fantasy drama settings of several generations of sadomasochism and conflicts between fairies and demons, the anecdotes in this drama are more "down-to-earth".

In the play, Banxia, ​​the wealthy daughter of Guangping City, has a pair of strange eyes. She can see some illusory shadows, and these shadows are monsters.

Demons exist between reality and reality. They may appear ethereal or solid. They can hide their tracks or take on human form. It was precisely because Banxia exposed the identity of the demon that she met Xuan Ye, and from then on she truly saw this world where humans and demons coexist.

In the play, the people in the paintings come to life, the little figures like clay dolls are jumping around, and the behemoths with antlers and masks. These strange scenes and indescribable species are like strange anecdotes brought into reality. .

The creation of the oriental fantasy atmosphere in the play is based on the detailed depiction of these monsters in the play. The plot is therefore more convincing and the audience can more easily become involved in the plot.

Highlight 2: Solve the case, catch the monster and reveal the mystery of identity.

In a world where humans and monsters coexist, there will always be some uncontrollable cases, so the main plot of this drama is to solve crimes and catch monsters.

In the play, Xuan Ye and Ban Xia investigated strange cases such as the case of Bi Li's rejuvenation, the case of nine-life cat-for-life, and the one-day reincarnation of "Quang Binh Spring Dawn Picture".

In the play, the outstretched arm in the mirror slowly approaches the pear in the woman's hand, which is frightening to watch.

In the process of catching monsters, Xuan Ye gradually discovered his own problem. As a monster catcher, he also seemed to be a monster. He had no choice but to live up to Banxia's feelings and push her away, letting himself be forgotten by the world.

In the process of solving the case in the play, the hidden clues of the male protagonist's identity are immediately buried in it, and the sadomasochistic love between the male and female protagonists, humans and monsters, also gradually unfolds.

The plot of this drama is clear and the structure of the world is grand. The main creative team is indispensable for polishing the script so finely.

The director of the play, Lin Yufen, previously directed "三生三世十里桃花", and director Liang Shengquan's masterpiece "Legend of Sword and Fairy" is a classic among domestic dramas.

Zhao Na, who served as the screenwriter of " Chu Qiao Biography ", also joined the cast. With these main creators joining forces, the quality of this drama is absolutely guaranteed.

02 Ren Jialun leads the cast, and the cast is strong.

The creative team not only worked hard on the plot, but they were also quite precise in casting.

ranks first, Ren Jialun.

Ren Jialun's title of "The God of Ancient Costumes" can be said to be worthy of his name. Not only is he handsome and handsome in ancient costumes, he has appeared in many costume dramas, from " Glory of the Tang Dynasty " to " Under the Golden Clothes " to "Chow Sheng Ru Ji" "They are all hits.

Although the popularity of " Liu Shui Yuan Yuan " is not as good as his previous works, his performance in the play is still wonderful. In

's new drama, Ren Jialun plays Xuan Ye, a monster hunter with a heavy life experience and a restrained and tolerant personality. In the trailer, Xuan Ye looks at Ban Xia's smile with affectionate eyes.

But when he really made up his mind to push Banxia away, he was also in great pain. He frowned in the inner struggle and couldn't help but shed a tear.

Ren Jialun's performance in this drama is as amazing as ever, and costume dramas are simply his domain.

ranked second, Xu Baihui.

In "The World", Yu Hong, played by Xu Baihui, is simple, kind, hardworking and hardworking, which left a deep impression on the audience.

In addition to this drama, her roles as Yi Bi in "Story of Yanxi Palace" and He Xiaohui in "Lotus Tower" are also very brilliant. Xu Baihui's acting skills have also been recognized by the audience in these works.

In the new drama, Xu Baihui plays Tang Ruyun. In the stills, her appearance is not exquisite, but she is simple and generous, with a gentle smile and dignity.

Although I don’t know the identity of this character in the play yet, this character plays a lot of roles in the play. I believe Xu Baihui’s acting skills will not disappoint the audience.

third place, declaration.

The name "Manifesto" may not be familiar to the audience, but in " Celebrating More Than Years 2" he played the role of He Zongwei who follows the trend of the people and succeeds as a villain. The audience will definitely still remember it.

In the new drama, Manifesto plays Chu Youhuang. In the trailer, Chu Youhuang is dressed as a scholar. His movements when turning around look tense and stiff, and his eyes are full of vigilance.

Chu Youhuang should not be a simple role in the drama. Declaration's performance in this drama is worth looking forward to.

ranked fourth, Zong Fengyan.

The powerful actor Zong Fengyan should be an old acquaintance of the audience, and he has acted in many costume dramas, including "The Legend of Swordsman III", " Ancient Sword and Legend " and "Yu Ci Xiaowu Zuo".

In the new drama, Zong Fengyan plays Jiucang Mo, Xuan Ye’s father. Regardless of the subject matter or this type of role, Zong Fengyan is already familiar with it. The character

probably doesn't have many scenes in the drama, but with Zong Fengyan's acting skills, he can still shine in even the smallest scenes.

In addition, there are actors such as Song Zuer and Wei Zixin in this drama. I believe that the performances of these actors can give the audience a fantasy drama.

03 Conclusion

Judging from the trailer, this "Worry-Free Crossing" is definitely a work of conscience.

First of all, the plot. This drama constructs a world where humans and demons coexist. The behavioral logic of the male and female protagonists is consistent with the experiences of the characters. The plot also focuses on catching demons and solving crimes, leaving aside the old man and woman who fall in love and save the world. routine.

The second is the special effects. The special effects in this drama are smart and natural, without any plastic feel. Each demon form has obvious differences and is very memorable. The money is really spent on the blade. With the quality of

, it is not a problem to become a hit in the domestic drama market.
