Kong Sheng directed " Langya Bang " for 7 years, and it doesn't matter how high the status is in the eyes of Chinese audiences. Recently, there have been rumors that " Langya List 3" may be starring with two male protagonists, but after all, there is no official announcement.
Netizens are all demanding that "Bang Ya Bang 3" must return, and all kinds of suggestions. This feeling is understandable, but it is only an official announcement now, and the cast has not yet been determined, so the analysis now does not make much sense. Now with the official announcement of "Langya Bang 3", "Langya Bang" has been conferred a god for the past 7 years.
Later, most costume dramas are of good quality but poor market performance, well-produced but poor plot, or well-produced, good plot, good reputation, but not necessarily so influential, and will never become a domestic costume like "Langya Bang" The benchmark for dramas, leading domestic costume dramas for many years after 2015.
I think the sequel "Langya Bang 2", which was launched in 2018, should also be named. The quality of this drama is not low, but the audience was still immersed in the sadness of "Lang Ya Bang". In addition, the reputation of the starring Huang Xiaoming and was affected. , which led to "Langya Ranking 2", which has a good quality and reputation, but the final result is not particularly good.
"Langya Bang 3" just needs to wait, "Langya Bang" has been consecrated, "Langya Bang 2" should not be absent from the ranks of good costume dramas.
"Langya Ranking 2" does not lose " Langya Ranking 1"? If you really compare, you might only lose a little
"Langya Bang", what's so good about it? Every time I talk about the development of domestic dramas, I will basically write it again. Here, I will extend it again from the reason why "Langya Bang" is conferred a god.
In 2015, "Langya Bang", which was launched by Noon Sunshine, largely saved the domestic costume drama. Of course, it is not very accurate to say "rescue". A more accurate statement should be benchmarking, leading, and ultimately changing the business model of the domestic costume drama market, that is, production standards.
The story structure, background and theme discussion of "Langya Bang 2" is stronger than "Lang Ya Bang 1". If it is said that "Langya List 1" is the author Haiyan who grafted the story of the Western classic "The Count of Monte Cristo" into ancient China, telling a story of revenge with a pure heart.
"Langya Bang 2" uses fictional stories to tell the ancient Chinese civil and military disputes, the battles between royal relatives and relatives. It tells about the faults of civil servants' supervision, the taboos of military generals' merits, and the balance of imperial power, including the trust and distrust brought about by family affection and power.
Representative of civil servants and relatives: Xun Baishui.
Military attachés and representatives of the royal family: the family of the king of Changlin, the representative of the family, and the king of Laiyang.
The relatives who want to rise to power must kill the royal family. Although "the war between civil and military" is an old-fashioned theme, it can be eternal in Chinese history. It is the military generals, so after they took power, they have always weakened the power of the military generals, and they must control the military generals in the hands of the civilian officials. In the battle between these two factions,
, was mixed with the poisonous snake Puyang Ying, Puyangying played a great role in the battle between Xun Baishui and Changlin King. He deliberately sow discord, deliberately fan the flames, get revenge for a "plague case", and finally indirectly cultivated a jackalXiao Yuanqi.
Actually, Master Puyang is very similar to Mei Changsu in the first part, they are both avengers. The difference is that when Mei Changsu takes his revenge, he wants to push King Jing to the throne and solve the crisis of Daliang. Master Puyang wanted to make everything even more chaotic. He was a pure destructive avenger.
So "Langya Bang" is a story of avengers, although there are internal and external problems, but the internal description is not profound. And "Langya Bang 2" is based on Puyang Ying, the poisonous snake, and slowly unfolded a war between civil and military, a big picture of the conflict between the family and the country in ancient Chinese history.
is still a fictional story, The story structure and core discussion of "Langya Bang 2" is close to some discussions in serious historical dramas such as "Yongzheng Dynasty" and "Daming Dynasty". Of course, it really talks about ancient Chinese philosophy. No one can write Liu Heping.
At the same time, the character creation of this drama is also very interesting. These are not supporting roles such as Changlin Wang and Xun Baishui, but two couples.
To tell the truth, the emotional scenes in "Langya Bang 1" are emotional but not profound. Anyone who has read the original book knows that the relationship between Mei Changsu and Nihuang is a bit embarrassing. In the original book, Nihuang has been guarding for so many years and finally decided to marry. As a result, Mei Changsu came back, and the TV couldn't do it like this, so it was changed to Nihuang waiting all the time.
one is waiting and the other is unwilling to drag it down, and in the original work, King Jing is the "female protagonist", Mei Changsu and King Jing have more interaction, and more than ten episodes have dropped in the middle of Nihuang, which is moving but not profound.
"Fang Ya Bang 2" two couples, one traditional and one modern. Changlin Shizi Xiao Pingzhang and Shizi Concubine Meng Qianxue know each other and love each other; Xiao Pingjing is a professional young man and a modern female representative who respects his lover but does not give up his career Xi.
Xiao Pingjing and Lin Xi, a couple on the screen, can be said to be a real male audience that is rarely seen in domestic dramas until today, and female audiences will like the couple characters with modern consciousness awakening. Yuan Zhongxin and Zhao Jian of Zhi are another pair. Is it normal that
"Langya Bang 2" is not as popular as the first one? But shouldn't it belittle the first one just because Huang Xiaoming was buried
praised "Langya Bang 2" here? Of course not, the second part is not as popular as the first one and it is very normal, and audiences who like the second part do not need to compare it with the first one, because "Langya Bang 2" is indeed not as cool as "Lang Ya Bang 1", Huang Xiaoming is small reason. The reason why
"Langya Bang" was so successful was related to the sudden clear flow in the impetuous market at that time, so it was even more sensational. I believe that most of the viewers who like "Long Ya Bang 1" also admit that the first plot is about the protagonist's revenge. The purpose of the first protagonist of
is very clear, that is, to increase his power in the DPRK and China, and to interfere in the hostile forces to make his own side ascend. All actions serve this purpose. The audience is very easy to understand, and various means echo each other, just like building a building. The further back the audience is, the more afraid the enemy will cause the project to collapse.
finally succeeded with the injustice of the Chi Yan Army, and the emperor admitted his wrongdoing and abdicated; King Jing cried bitterly when he learned the truth (the heroine), and Mei Changsu went to the battlefield without explaining his death. These touching emotions and the theme of the heart of a child are simply burning and tearful , it is normal for the audience to like it.
"Langya Bang 2" is too complicated, and the structure is divided into two chapters. Before Xiao Pingzhang's death, there was a chapter, mainly fighting Puyang master, mixed with the literary minister Xun Baishui, who was doing things everywhere, and the later villain Xiao Yuanqi was still laying the groundwork; the second chapter after Xiao Pingzhang's death, Xiao Pingjing took over but Xun Baishui's literary minister The faction prevailed, and then Xiao Yuanqi, who had been paving the way, succeeded. In the end, the imperial power and the Wenchen faction knew that it was over, and Xiao Pingjing came back to solve the problem.
When the audience is watching the drama, they will feel that the protagonist has no goal. In the early stage, the enemy did not know where the enemy came to stumble the protagonist. solve. The audience does not know what the protagonist's goal is, and the enemy has been hiding in the dark.
In this way, it can only focus more on the sense of suspense, and the audience will definitely not be so happy.
This script was set up and the later " Tiansheng Long Song " came again. The early stage was too suspenseful, and there were too many suspense foreshadowing. If you like it, let's take a look at the results of Gongdou Shuang's "Strategy of Yanxi Palace".
The audience will feel that whatever happens is nothing more than the enemy making newtrouble, and then the protagonist came forward to settle it. The protagonist may suffer losses, but this loss is very sudden. The audience does not know when the protagonist will die, so the audience will feel sudden when Xiao Pingzhang dies.
died suddenly because of this character. Anyway, it feels like he was suddenly killed by the enemy.
Xiao Pingjing took the place of the protagonist, and the real body of the villain's big boss has not yet appeared. At this time, the audience is still guessing what the villain's purpose is, and naturally they feel unhappy and unburned. Today's audience really likes watching cool dramas more and more, and they don't really like watching boring dramas that have been suppressed by others.
Therefore, "Langya Ranking 2" suffers from the disadvantage that the protagonist's family is very powerful, but they are repeatedly abused by the villains. The audience is too bored and depressed, and it is only natural that it is not popular enough.
After a lapse of 5 years, because Huang Xiaoming was wrongly accused of "Langya Bang 2", it is time to turn over. Costume dramas are totally worth it. The interlocking plots of "Langya Bang", the main line of revenge with burning and tearful eyes, and the theme expression of the heart of a child. These plus the excellent production level and the level of actors in place, why can't it become a myth of domestic dramas.
"Langya Bang" is not bad, on the contrary it is very good, but "Langya Bang 2" is a different direction, if you say that the audience doesn't like it, it is not popular enough to understand, but it cannot be denied because of other expressions expression, which is not objective to literary and artistic works.
, like Huang Xiaoming, has indeed acted in too many bad dramas to defeat the audience's impression, but he can't belittle the good works he starred in, right!
Finally, I hope that the filming of "Langya Bang 3" will start soon, and it can be done well, because the current domestic costume dramas are a bit like before 2015, although not so serious, but no matter costume dramas or costume idol dramas are excellent indeed not much. Although I think "Langya Bang 3" is unlikely to lead the domestic costume drama even if it is filmed well, it is still good to be able to contribute an excellent costume drama. What's more,
is still such a classic domestic costume drama, no matter how you look at it, it's a good thing, right!
