[Editor's note]
is here to help you watch the "first episode" series of dramas. Is the recently aired drama worth getting into? Beautiful ones, weird ones, let’s have a plate together.
Maybe some dramas will get better gradually, and some dramas may start high but then slow down, so this article only represents the author’s opinion on the first few episodes and is for reference only. If there is any subsequent slap in the face, we will inform you at any time.
"Time Agent"
Broadcast platform: Bilibili
First broadcast time: June 19
The producer of this drama is Liu Chang, who has produced "The Soul of Chess". He's really good at comic book editing. The
drama tells the story of Cheng Xiao (played by Jiang Long), an ordinary person who originally ran a photo studio, and met Lu Guang (played by Bi Wenjun ) who can travel through time and space through photos. The two cooperated again and again, and through this Superpowers have changed the fate of some people, or fulfilled the wishes of some people.
It sounds a bit sober and sci-fi, but Liu Chang makes this story come true. Jiang Long plays Cheng Xiao, who is a little silly and a bit sober, but he is not noisy and stupid, but is in harmony with the serious and boring Lu Guang , forming a sense of contrast cp.
For dramas such as Cheng Xiaoshi and Lu Guang
with special front-end characters, the choice of actors is very critical. Jiang Long's performance is outstanding. As a comedian, he grasps the transition between the comic and the real world very well, making people accept this fictional condition. In fact, although Jiang Long is Cheng Xiaoxiao in reality, after time travel, Liu Chang still chose to let the actor in the story play him.
The supporting roles in the drama aka the protagonists of the unit story can be said to be a strong lineup. For example, in the first unit, He Guangzhi plays the worker, Jin Shijia plays the bking boss; in the second unit it is Wu Haochen, who is also the outstanding earthquake chapter in the animation; later Actor Liu Chang also appeared... These actors have a heavier task, not only to have the soul of Cheng Xiao, but also to perform the life of this character, but their strength is obvious to all, and the author has almost no sense of disobedience.
Needless to say, the foundation of the story is good, especially the earthquake chapter, where clues were intentionally hidden. At the last moment, the audience and Cheng Xiao felt a strong emotional impact. Of course, the creative staff's grasp of the rhythm is also very critical.
Although the standard of this comic adaptation is not as good as "Soul of Chess", it is at least 7 points or above.
Whether people can't help but click on the next episode is the best criterion for testing a good drama.
"Yan Xin Ji"
Broadcast platform: iQiyi
First broadcast time: June 21
Every summer season, sweet and pure love in ancient costumes is indispensable. Year after year, have you made any progress? After watching "Yan Xin Ji" airborne, it is difficult for the author to get a positive answer.
In fact, it is unfair to "Yan Xin Ji" to say this. From the perspective of ordinary domestic costume dramas, it is watchable and followable. The author did not feel too anxious while watching it. As long as it is doubled, it is still I can watch it.
Just, is there any reason to watch it? Maybe not. Is there anything that stands out? It seems not. The male and female protagonists meet and get to know each other during the investigation process, and their emotions advance rapidly. You can feel where the creator has buried the point of taking CP, and you can also feel the overall atmosphere that the creator has worked hard to create. However, it does lack attraction, and every aspect will Almost 60 points.
As of 14:00 on June 22, the popularity of "Yan Xin Ji" on the iQiyi site exceeded 7,500.
For example, if the heroine is injured and the hero helps to bandage it, the atmosphere seems to be there and I should feel it, but as an audience, the author was not touched. After thinking about it, it may still be too assembly-line, with an assembly-line CP feel, an assembly-line script, and an assembly-line character design. It lacks unique and thoughtful design and underestimates the audience's requirements.
In the final analysis, the essence of ancient puppets is nothing more than to keep people from getting ahead. The reason why the next door movie " Mo Yuyunjian " attracts the audience is because of the cold and aloof male protagonist, the stubborn and smart female protagonist, and the fast-paced and solid script. The male and female protagonists of "Yan Xin Ji" are somewhat neither fish nor fowl: the male protagonist seems aloof, but not enough; the female protagonist seems lively, but not natural enough.The viewing experience is neither good nor bad. As for the script, if I say it is not good, it does have some investigation parts. If I say it is good, it seems that there is too much nonsense and useless plot.
If you like this type of drama or are a fan of actors, you can watch it.
"The Iron-Blooded Heart of Jin Yong's Martial Arts World"
Broadcast platform: Tencent Video
Premiere time: June 17
Every generation has its own Jin Yong. The 2017 version of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" has not passed long, and now a group of students have grown up. Look at this new version, it is here again. This version of
actually took out and filmed Jin Yong's classic stories and divided them into several units. The current broadcast is " Iron Blood and Heart " directed by Yang Lei, which is the story of the Condor Shooting.
Since it is a branch story, it will not be so detailed. Some viewers said that it is like watching the commentary version of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes"... It is undeniable that this problem does exist in the series.
Jin Yong’s story is all about rivers and lakes, chivalry, and only talents have rivers and lakes. The birth and growth of Guo Jing and Yang Kang are accompanied by complex interpersonal relationships in the rivers and lakes, from the Seven Monsters of Jiangnan to the past of their two fathers. Unfortunately, this version is very fast-paced, omitting a lot of previous events and only filming the most critical characters and plots, which will inevitably lose the sense of the world. But relatively, for young people who have never watched Jin Yong or have little interest in Jin Yong, this setting is more friendly and suitable as a stepping stone to understand Jin Yong's world.
Wang Hongyi as Yang Kang
In terms of key plots, the author compared it with the well-received 2017 version. This version is actually not bad. The lines, plot, and atmosphere are all up to standard. Except for the filter, which is too yellow, the other Some of them were shot carefully, without any perfunctory touches, and there were no magic modifications. It can only be said that there is no innovation, but it is not a bad drama. As for the early TVB version, it is difficult to compare. The service and plot of that version all have limitations of the times.
However, this version must be controversial at present. After all, it is a thankless remake of a classic. Secondly, due to a large number of deletions and omissions, the sense of the world is not enough, and the character creation is not convincing enough. Coupled with the advancement of costumes, the development of dubbing and film and television technology, the character makeup and status should be getting closer and closer, but this version seems to have regressed.
In a word, "Iron Heart" only meets the passing standards. It is getting harder and harder for the audience to immerse themselves in the high-definition footage, so it is naturally difficult to stop.
