Among domestic dramas, there is a type that people both love and hate: costume dramas.
Once upon a time, costume dramas once dominated the Chinese drama market.
In recent years, many excellent works have emerged in Chinese dramas, such as "梦华录", " Sauvignon Blanc", "Lotus Tower", etc., which have firmly captured the audience's attention. Although they cannot compare with classics, But it also has a long aftertaste.
But this year, it is too difficult to produce good costume dramas.
On the surface, there are highly popular and powerful costume works such as "Sauvignon Blanc 2" and "The Code of Along the River During the Qingming Festival".
can really meet the audience, and its reputation is worrying. Even " Celebrating More Than Years 2" has received a lot of complaints.
Is this how costume dramas have sunk? The former ace of Chinese dramas was completely defeated by urban and suspense dramas?
Finally, someone took action.
Recently, the " Palm " starring Liu Shishi has officially wrapped up. The 108-day shooting has finally ended. I believe it will not be long before it can be seen with everyone. I think there is finally a costume drama that can save the audience from the drama shortage!
Entering the game, surrounded by wolves
"The Palm" tells the story of Ye Ping'an (played by Liu Shishi), a wandering doctor who moved to Luoyang, Kyoto because of an old incident and opened a "Heart Disease Medical Clinic".
Because she is good at confusing people, and the several cases she treats are weird and bizarre, she is called a witch doctor by Luoyang people, and she has become a existence that everyone avoids.
One day, a murder occurred in Luoyang City. Ye Ping'an had just left the deceased after treating the patient's illness, and his partner was found tragically dead at home.
For a time, Ye Pingan became the biggest suspect. After all, she had diagnosed the deceased's heart disease before he was alive, and there was only trace of Ye Pingan at the murder scene. No matter how you look at it, she is inseparable from the matter.
Cheng Yuan Shaocheng (played by Dou Xiao), the prime minister of Dali Temple who was responsible for investigating the case, came from a humble background and has always been regarded as a "stinky rat" in the officialdom. Even though he has talents, he cannot be respected.
This gradually distorted his heart. As time went by, Yuan Shaocheng became sinister and cruel, eager for power. As long as there was a chance, he would climb up at all costs.
The case of Ye Pingan’s murder of officials is a good stepping stone.
While investigating the case, Yuan Shaocheng turned a blind eye to all kinds of strange things and wanted to put Ye Ping'an to death so that his letter of nomination would look more perfect.
However, what Yuan Shaocheng didn't know was that he had already been trapped in the trap carefully woven by Ye Ping'an. A battle of revenge had started quietly in secret.
The content of the story is enough to get a glimpse of the unparalleled pleasure of the play.
The heroine who is bent on revenge and the hero who just wants to climb up, both want to put the other to death, stand on opposite sides, and refuse to give in to each other.
breaks the ancient puppet routine of happy enemies, childhood sweethearts and mutual support. "The Palm" opens up a new routine for the heroine's revenge novel.
In the past, when the female protagonist took revenge, the male protagonist was either a superior judge or a suitor who helped behind the scenes.
The drama "Palm" is unusual. Just like the title of the drama, both the male and female protagonists will play with each other in the palm of their hands. Whoever is better than the other will have to go to the main drama to reveal the answer.
is a suspense drama that looks at human nature and plays with heartbeats.
Ancient costume suspense dramas lift everyone's emotions high. The "broad and profound" Chinese horror can always affect the hearts of the audience the most. The drama "Palm" is probably going to hold the audience firmly in the palm of their hands.
The entire cast is talented in acting.
Although the story is full of tension, the actors are the flesh and blood that make up the suspenseful universe.
The cast of "The Palm" skillfully painted a vivid and plump portrait of heroes.
ranked first, Liu Shishi.
Many people know that Liu Shishi is the chosen beauty in ancient costume, but they don’t know that she is the best 85 beauty in fighting scenes.
Although she became famous with her role as Ruoxi in "Bu Bu Jing Xin", before that, Liu Shishi frequently appeared in major costume action dramas of the Tang Dynasty.
In the new drama "Palm", Liu Shishi plays Ye Pingan, a wandering doctor.
Since she has the word "jianghu", she must be very skillful. I wonder if she can be seen in the drama playing smoothly and as cool as a shooting star.
In the final episode, Liu Shishi is neatly dressed in a blue robe, leaning forward to bow, with a winning smile on her lips. The look alone gives people a sense of coolness. It seems like there is something good to watch now.
ranked second, Wang Zhifei.
National first-class actor Wang Zhifei has a long history. In classic dramas such as " Silent Witness ", "The Fission of the Qin Empire", " Across the Yalu River " and other dramas, this veteran actor has contributed textbook-like acting skills. .
In recent years, his appearance in dramas such as "" and "Happiness to Ten Thousands of Houses" has also greatly improved the quality of the dramas.
In the new drama "Palm", Wang Zhifei will play the role of Wu Youjing. In the
stills, Wu Youjing seems to have just finished carving the tower, sitting at the table, looking at the finished loft with a heavy gaze, and he is planning What.
Wang Zhifei has a calm and composed aura, which is quite like everyone's. When the role is given to him, it is really difficult to distinguish between good and evil.
The third place is Chen Jin.
The aura of Fu Wenying played by Chen Jin in "My World's Fireworks" is so powerful. Although the performance of the play is not ideal, the acting skills of the veteran actor have conquered many audiences.
In "The Palm", the saint played by Chen Jin is another big man with a strong aura. In the stills of
, she is sitting upright. It seems that someone below her said something offensive. A simple raise of her eyes silences people. She is so royal.
In another still, the saint stands with her hands behind her hands and looks out the window, as if she is sizing up her great land and mountains. The dim sunset shines on her face, with clear outlines and a hint of conspiracy and calculation.
ranked fourth, Xu Jiao.
The capable actress Xu Jiao's role as Cheng Shu in "The Star" is impressive. In the play, she portrays Sister Si Si's gentleness and courtesy to the core.
In the new drama "Palm", Wu Xian'er played by Xu Jiao does not look like someone who is easy to mess with.
Wearing a dignified robe that highlights her noble status, she drinks tea and glances sideways, which makes people feel sinister and sinister. Looking at the background, Wu Xian'er seems to be in a prison cell.
It seems that this is a ruthless character. There is a high probability that this character will be Ye Ping'an's great opponent in the play. I'm really looking forward to it.
ranked fifth, Huang Haibing.
Huang Haibing, a powerful Mesozoic actor, has performed brilliantly in many popular dramas such as "Heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" and "The Legend of Chu Qiao".
In the new drama "Palm", he will play the role of Hai Yiping. In the stills, Hai Yiping is standing on the street and looking not far away. The expression on his face is a bit tangled and unbelievable. He wonders if he saw something unfair. .
This character is hard to distinguish between loyal and treacherous. Looking at the stills, he seems to be a gentleman. I wonder if there will be a reversal in the drama?
In addition, "Palm" has also invited many powerful actors such as Lan Xi, Qin Yan, Lu Xing, Jiang Kai to join the cast. It can be concluded that this will be another hit suspense drama in ancient costumes.
Conclusion
There are many ancient puppet dramas that are very popular this year, but not many of them are really popular on the Internet.
For Liu Shishi, costume dramas have always been her dominant area. Although "One Thought of Guanshan" did not achieve ideal results, Liu Shishi's efforts in the drama were appreciated by the audience.
Judging from the stills and final specials, the dramatic conflicts and picture quality of this new drama are good, and it is definitely worth looking forward to.
Although there may be love between children, the proportion of Machiavellian plots and suspense dramas is definitely not low.
The success or failure of the series also depends on two points:
First, whether "The Palm" can capture the essence of the costume suspense drama, heighten the tension in place, and truly bring a passionate and exciting "horror story" to the audience.
The second is whether it can capture a feast of beauties.
In "Palm", in addition to Liu Shishi, there are also many beauties such as Lan Xi, Xuan Lu, Xu Jiao, Zhang Yuxi, etc., and their appearance must be good.
Let’s see if the series can make the beauties look so beautiful and unforgettable.
The drama has now been completed, and I believe it will be released to the audience soon. If you want to know who is holding whom in the palm of your hand, then wait for the feature film to come and have a glimpse of Ye Pingan's style.
