has to say that the power of some domestic "leiju" is too powerful.
Wumao special effects, exaggerated acting skills, shattered three views, thunder rolling in the sky...
Recalling a little, my eyes have begun to feel pain.
However, there is a "thunder drama" from more than ten years ago, which has been reborn under the baptism of time. Not only did
's ratings go up, some even called "Fengshen".

As the name suggests, the content and encounters are full of "magic". After
was launched in 2008, the Douban score was only 3.6, and the screen was full of one star.
not only the audience thinks it is shocking, but the media comments are all "thunder" and "bad drama".
Unexpectedly, after 14 years, the Douban score has risen to 8.4, replaced by five-star praise of nearly 50%.
What the hell is this?
Let's briefly review the main story.
In the future 2060, scientists have developed a smartphone called " silly girl " .
She can be an item that she carries with her, or she can transform into a humanoid and travel freely in time and space.
She can make video calls, scan human identities with one click, and even enter human bodies, giving them superpowers.
put it in layman's terms, it is the artificial intelligence like Superman.
But this artificial intelligence also needs to be charged.
Once the power goes out, all the above magic functions will be in vain.
Scientists wanted silly girl to travel back to the past to do research, so they arranged for her to travel to the Tang Dynasty, where she met the Weasel Spirit, the Yellow Eyebrow King, and the four monks and apprentices from the Tang Dynasty who learned from the West.
The silly girl who received the order stole King Huangmei's seed bag and was about to go back. Unexpectedly, King Huangmei also took the seed bag and entered the time-space tunnel together.
and the bull demon who turned into a nose ring, Wang also followed him through.
travel to aHalf, silly girl actually ran out of electricity, they randomly dropped to 2006.
silly girl turned into a doll and fell into a bag. The owner of this bag is hero Lu Xiaoqian .
The Yellow Eyed King who also fell into modern society keeps doing bad things. After 300 rounds of battle, silly girl and Lu Xiaoqian couldn't fight, so they traveled back and invited Zhu Bajie and Sun Wukong to help.
's former enemies have become comrades over time.
With the help of silly girl, Lu Xiaoqian, who has achieved nothing, turned into a justice warrior, and also formed a team with Huangmei , Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, and Fuerdai boss Yousuo to fight against urban crime.
Remember that Bull Demon who followed the silly girl and the king of yellow eyebrows? It was his turn to start messing around.
The Bull Demon discovered that the sam liquid in the center of the earth's core can be used to make an elixir to make a fortune.
But this will also shorten the lifespan of the planet, and humanity will be in crisis.
In order to protect the earth, the Bull Demon King and Lu Xiaoqian started various forms of chaos again.
The Bull Demon finally used his trump card and put down ten tons of explosives in the core of the earth, while the silly girl started her own program to control the explosion.
But at the same time, the silly girl died and the story ended.
To put it simply, in addition to the interspersed chaos, the main line of "Magic Phone" is a magical love adventure between "diaosi" Lu Xiaoqian and mobile phone "silly girl".
Due to the mix of time and space, and the many characters, the plot seems very outrageous at first glance.
But what is even more outrageous is that these unreasonable settings of have no fatal bugs, and can achieve logical self-consistency .
Since the first time the silly girl crossed into the Tang Dynasty, Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie knew about the silly girl and knew the existence of Lu Xiaoqian.
Because the silly girl and Lu Xiaoqian traveled back to the time of Gao Lao Zhuang and brought Zhu Bajie to 2006.
also met Chu Chu and Huamei in Gaolaozhuang, Huamei hoped that Lu Xiaoqian would forgive himself two months ago, and this section was rounded up with a reasonable timeline later.
This may be the magic of "Magic Phone": looks incredible and thunderous, but in fact it is logical and orderly.
At the same time, the play also hides a lot of discussion and satire on current social issues.
Zhu Bajie, who came to the modern society, is still lustful, staring at the little sister in the navel-baring outfit on the street. Lu Xiaoqian had no choice but to ask the silly girl to add a layer of mosaic to him, and he could no longer be a pervert peeping. mad.
The black-hearted boss Mr. Fan defaulted on the wages of migrant workers, violently demolished them, and used inferior food materials to make huge profits. In the end, the migrant workers had to jump off the building to ask for their hard-earned money.
The owner of the breakfast shop denies using alum to make fritters, and fights with Lu Xiaoqian, but his son eats it for a long timeThe alum exceeded the standard and became a fool.
The owner of the decoration company claimed to use green and healthy materials, but the client's child suffered from leukemia due to excessive formaldehyde.
voluntarily donated bone marrow to help the child, but it was the son of the owner of the decoration company.
Even the Monkey King did not escape the poison of modern society. He ate the non-toxic peaches from the green melon and fruit plantation base to satisfy his hunger and suffered food poisoning. The
and the "flying man" alliance formed by Lu Xiaoqian assembled a group of heroes, targeting those who do piracy.
Even now, these plots and settings are still not outdated and more intriguing.
Since "Magic Phone" has so many advantages, back 14 years ago, why was it sprayed as "The King of Thunder Drama"?
Its "thunder" is also obvious. The most intuitive thing about
is the service and special effects, which are full of cheap feeling.
Not to mention the alternative aesthetic with a strong sense of age, the special effects are just as disastrous as a cult movie...
It's hard not to wonder how many children who were watching the deadly special effects in front of the TV at midnight would be watched by these deadly children at midnight. wake up.
What's interesting is that the cast of "Magic Phone" is basically the original cast of "Lotus Lantern", and the plot also incorporates a lot of stalks from the previous "Lotus Lantern".
And at that time, the special effects production of "Lotus Lantern" can be regarded as the first domestic drama.
It's not hard to understand why the audience with a huge gap scored one star.
In addition to the special effects that are not available for five cents, the outrageous brain holes in "Magic Phone" far exceeded the understanding of people at that time.
also introduced "Journey to the West" in the play, but rewritten the original version of the four Tang monks and apprentices.
Tang Seng's 9,981-day journey to learn Buddhist scriptures in the West is called by Brother Monkey to travel around the world in 80 days.
Tang Seng sat in a big jeep alone to study the scriptures in the west, and also asked the monster to take him away, and if he didn't take himself, he would madly recite the scriptures.
In the modern society, Zhu Bajie even fell in love with a beautiful and independent female white-collar...
At that time, mobile phones generally only had phone calls and text messages.
The existence of silly girls is no different from monsters to most rational and conservative adults.
But the male protagonist of the story has fallen in love with this phone, and the power-on password is still "I love you"...
It's not so much that the audience of any session is good, but it is just that with the development of the times and the expansion of knowledge, the inclusiveness of the audience is also increasing. The rise in ratings of
"Magic Phone" in the past 14 years also reflects the problems of today's domestic dramas to a certain extent. The creators of
said in an interview that "Magic Phone" is a "serious comedy".
They hope to use magical colors to express truth, goodness and beauty, and to lash out against some bad social phenomena.
Aside from the differences due to the age and some cheap production, the essence of "Magic Phone" is still positive, positive and full of thinking.
It is not a god, but it is definitely not the king of thunder dramas.
, after all, some essential thunder and decay, after more than ten years, it is still only thunder.
