Summary: There has always been a saying in the entertainment circle that "Noon produced must be a high-quality product", which means that the film and television works produced by Noon Sunshine are all excellent works of high quality, and all are high-quality products with popular ratings. However, several films and TV dramas produced by Noon Sunshine recently have poor ratings and low ratings. The Douban score of " Ode to Joy 3" is only 4.8 points, which can be described as appalling. Why is the noon sun halo no longer, in fact, the real cow is not the noon sun, but director Kong Sheng .

has always been circulating in the entertainment circle "Noon produced, must be a high-quality product", that is to say, the film and television works produced by Noon Sunshine are all excellent works of high quality, and they are all high-quality products with rave reviews. However, several films and TV dramas produced by Noon Sunshine recently have poor ratings and low ratings. The Douban score of "Ode to Joy 3" is only 4.8 points, which can be described as appalling. Why is the noon sun halo no longer, in fact, it is not the midday sun that really is the cow, but director Kong Sheng. The full name of

Noon Sunshine is Dongyang Noon Sunshine Film and Television Co., Ltd. , which is a professional film and television organization established in 2011. However, Noon Sunshine was not born out of nowhere, but a company born out of Shandong Film and Television Group , which was established through market-oriented operations. Therefore, Noon Sunshine is based on producer Hou Hongliang , directors Kong Sheng, Li Xue , Jian Chuanqi , Sun Molong , and Zhang Kaizhou as the creative subjects. Basically, they are all "Shandong Gang", and the team has been running in for a long time. , are more familiar and tacit with each other.

Noon Sunshine can only be regarded as a rising star in the entertainment industry, but it is quite extraordinary when it is shot. The first work " Langya Bang " (directed by Kong Sheng and Li Xue), which premiered in 2015, scored 9.4 points on Douban, which can be called a work of conferred gods and the pinnacle of ancient costume dramas. With the popularity of "Langya Bang", Noon Sunshine made its name in the mainland entertainment circle.

followed, "Ode to Joy 1" premiered in 2016 (directed by Kong Sheng and Jian Chuanji), which was also well received. Although the Douban score was not too high, only 7.4 points, it was still a work of conscience. After that, it was broadcast on satellite TV in various places, and it was also enduring. Therefore, in 2016, the filming of " Ode to Joy 2" (directed by Jian Chuanqi and Zhang Kaizhou) began, which premiered in 2017. Although not as good as "Ode to Joy 1", the page is still a top-notch work. In 2017,

broadcasted the sequel of "Langya Bang", " The Wind Rising in Langya Bang Changlin " (directed by Kong Sheng and Li Xue). The quality of this drama is also very good, with a Douban score of 8.4, which is also a very good result. Yes, but because the brilliance of "Langya Bang" is too dazzling, this drama has been completely covered up, and its influence is far less than that of "Langya Bang".

By 2018, Noon Sunshine has released another blockbuster masterpiece " Dajiang Dahe " (directed by Kong Sheng, Huang Wei ), Douban score 8.8 points, the general evaluation is very high, even known as the domestic drama Benchmark. In this year, there is another " know whether it should be green fat red thin " (director Zhang Kaizhou) is also well received. Douban score 8.5 points

In 2019, the most influential work of Noon Sunshine is " is good " (director Jian Chuanqi), Douban score 8.5 points, becoming the masterpiece of 2019.

In 2020, I feel a little dull. The three dramas " Qingpingle " (director Zhang Kaizhou), " I am Yu Huanshui " (director Sun Molong), and " Dajiang Dahe 2" (directors Li Xue and Huang Wei) all performed only well. Can be regarded as normal.

enters 2021, and Noon Sunshine has released another hit, which is " Mountains and Seas " (directed by Kong Sheng and Sun Molong), with a Douban score of 9.4 points, which is on par with "Langya Bang", creating another miracle of conferring gods . Another period drama " Joe's Children " (directed by Zhang Kaizhou) was also remarkable, with a Douban score of 8.7.

This year, " Begins " at the beginning of the year (directed by Sun Molong, Liu Hongyuan, Laosuan) received a good response, and the Douban score was also 8.2 points. But the next three films, "Meeting Season" (director Jian Chuanqi), "Welcome" (director Li Xue), and "Ode to Joy 3" (director Jian Chuanqi) overturned one after another. Ode to Joy 3's Douban scores have fallen below5 points, this is basically a failure, and it can already be called a bad film. If the quality of

occasionally declines, it is normal, but three consecutive films have performed so poorly, which naturally caused a lot of doubts. The golden signboard of Noon Sunshine seems to be dimmed, and the former ratings myth is unsustainable.

Indeed, over the years, the film and television dramas produced by Noon Sunshine have been of good overall quality. Up to now, there are a total of 23 works, 80% of which have a Douban score of 7 or above, and 50% of which have a Douban score of 8 or above. , This achievement can definitely be regarded as a leader among domestic film and television companies.

But to say "what comes out at noon, must be a fine product" is obviously a bit exaggerated, and noon's works are not necessarily good works, such as the 2015 spy war drama " Pretender " (director Li Xue) , Although the Douban score is 8.5 points, Lao Zhou feels that this score is obviously inflated. Although the Douban score has always been respected, it is indeed a relatively objective evaluation system for film and television dramas in China. But occasionally misses are inevitable, and "The Pretender" may be a pretty good work in terms of the twists and turns of the spy war movie. But if it is placed in the historical background of the Anti-Japanese War, especially when it comes to the military system . Any espionage war during the War of Resistance, who has some knowledge of the situation of the military system, will know that many scenes in "The Pretender" are completely nonsense, so Lao Zhou only watched one episode and couldn't watch it anymore.

Therefore, the film and television dramas produced by Noon Sunshine are not high-quality products from the beginning. For a film and television company, it is normal for the quality of the film and television dramas produced by them to be high or low. Therefore, there is no need to make a fuss about the dismal ratings of several films this year.

However, after a careful comparison, you can find that the high-quality products of Noon Sunshine are almost all related to one person - he is Kong Sheng. To be precise, it should be a high-quality product produced by Kong Sheng.

Kong Sheng, born in 1960, a native of Jinan, Shandong Province, worked as a worker when he was young, and studied at Night University in his spare time. After graduation, he joined a small magazine and worked as an editor for a period of time. Later, he resigned. According to his own hobbies, he became an editor. hired a photographer—strictly speaking, it was just a camera assistant at this time. Later, he joined Shandong Film and Television Group as a full-time camera assistant.

In 1989, director Zhang Jiandong invited Kong Sheng to be a camera assistant when he was filming the Virgo movie "Noon Sunshine", which was also the beginning of Kong Sheng's entry into the entertainment industry. Later, Noon Sunshine became the name of the film and television company.

In 1990, Kong Sheng served as a camera assistant in the historical biographical drama " Confucius ", and his work was unanimously affirmed. Therefore, from the second year in 1991, Kong Sheng became the main cameraman on his own.

has been continuously improving his professional knowledge in his work as a photographer. "Kong Fansen" and "Alishan's Daughter" have twice won the Shandong Provincial Excellent Camera Award. And he not only acted as a photographer, but also acted as an editor in many works, and won the best editing single award of China TV " Golden Eagle Award " for "Alishan's Daughter". Obviously, the cinematography and editing are excellent, laying the foundation for being a good director.

In 1996, Kong Sheng acted as an independent director for the first time and filmed "Civil Police Cheng Guangquan". Although it was still a relatively immature debut, the film performed quite well and won the Central Propaganda Department "Five Ones Project" Award, China's "" The first prize of the "Flying Award " second prize, the first prize of the Ministry of Public Security's "Cultural Excellent Project Award", the first prize of Shandong Province Excellent TV Drama Award, and won the Shandong Province Excellent Director Award. It can be seen that as a director, Kong Sheng was very successful as soon as he appeared on the stage. After

, Kong Sheng completely changed his career to director, and successively filmed " Four Seasons ", " Police 110", "A Drop of Sunshine", "Liao Zhai: People" "Ghost Love", "Kuala Lumpur's Rainy Season", "Mom", "Hello Classmates", "Family Matters", "The Life of Two People" and other worksTaste. Among them, "Police 110" won the first prize of China TV's "Golden Eagle Award"; "A Drop of Sunshine" won the second prize of Chinese TV drama "Flying Award" and the first prize of Shandong Province Excellent TV Drama Awards; Hello" won the second prize of the Chinese TV series "Flying Award"; "Family" won the third prize of the Chinese TV series "Flying Award"; "Family" won the third prize of the Chinese TV series "Flying Award". In 2001,

served as the director and filmed the documentary "Not On Trial", which received unanimous praise from experts and audiences after it was broadcast on CCTV and Phoenix TV . From Kong Sheng's early directing experience, the subject matter involved is very wide, including criminal investigation dramas, costume dramas, and urban dramas, all of which have laid a solid foundation for Kong Sheng's subsequent creations.

In 2004, Kong Sheng directed " Qianmenlouzi Jiuzhangjiu ". This Beijing-flavored work was a turning point in Kong Sheng's career as a director. In September 2006,

and Zhang Xinjian co-directed the TV series " ". The play, which started in 2008, caused a national sensation after it was broadcast on CCTV in prime time and received rave reviews. He has successively won 7 national-level awards such as the 2008 Golden Eagle Award for Best Feature TV Series, Best Screenplay, and Best Videography; in the first Taishan Literary Creation Award in Shandong Province, he won the highest award. The crew of "Crossing Guandong" was awarded by the Shandong Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government. In October 2008,

directed the war drama "Life and Death". The original work of the film is the novel of the same name by Lan Xiaolong , and it is also one of Lan Xiaolong's famous war trilogy, which also won high praise. "Life and Death" also has a Douban score of 8.7 points, ranking among the best in war dramas.

shot the disaster movie " Beichuan Rebirth " in 2010. Kong Sheng also entered the movie from the TV series. Experts know that the movie is a higher level than the TV series. Kong Sheng can still master it skillfully. It can be seen that his directing skills are quite deep. .

In May 2012, Kong Sheng filmed the emotional drama " parents love ", which was broadcast in 2014. This drama has almost become the pinnacle of period dramas, with a Douban score of 9.5 points, and is known as an unsurpassed drama.

In November of the same year, Kong Sheng also co-directed the anti-Japanese war drama " vs. Changsha " with Zhang Kaizhou. This drama is not well-known among many anti-war dramas, but the quality is very high. Lao Zhou chased it from the beginning to the end. Although there are not many war scenes, through the experience of a family in Changsha in the Changsha defense battle , it truly shows the torment and struggle of the middle and lower classes of the Anti-Japanese War in the tide of the times. The Douban score of "Battle of Changsha" also broke 9, reaching 9,1 points.

In 2013, Kong Sheng and Li Xue directed the spy war drama " No War in Peiping ", which was well received after its broadcast in 2014, with a Douban score of 8.9. Compared with "The Pretender" with the same spy war theme, "No War in Peiping" is obviously superior. Although the Douban scores are similar, Lao Zhou thinks that the quality is definitely out of the way. After

, Kong Sheng joined Noon Sunshine, and his masterpieces continued, such as "Langya Bang", "Ode to Joy 1", "Big River", "Shan Hai Qing", etc. are all works by Kong Sheng. He also directed the tomb robbery-themed movie " Ghost Blowing Lights: The Wonderful Ancient City ". It can be regarded as a dark horse among the various tomb robbery dramas. It is also highly sought after by tomb robber fans. level.

It can be said that the most popular high-scoring masterpieces of Noon Sunshine are almost all from Kong Sheng. If it weren't for Kong Sheng, Noon Sunshine would be a general generation, and it would never be possible for him to have such a high prestige today. So, in fact, the noon sunshine is not good, the good is Kong Sheng - "Crossing Guandong", "Life and Death", "Battle in Changsha", "Parents' Love", "No War in Peiping", "Langya List", "Ode to Joy 1" ", "Big River", "Shan Hai Qing", look at the names of these classic dramas, Kong Sheng is enough to be famous among Chinese film and television directors. Kong Sheng is really awesome!

should sayWhat Kong Sheng produced must be a fine product, I look forward to the new work of Director Kong Da!
