There is a theme in the domestic drama market that has always been remembered by the audience, and that is fantasy dramas.
's "Tomb Robbers Notes", "Si Teng" and "Tang Dynasty Strange Stories" were all hits, and now they can be regarded as classics in fantasy dramas.
In the past two years, fantasy dramas have begun to decline. " West of Yumen " received a mediocre response, and " Ice and Snow Ballad " was directly hit the street.
On the contrary, there are several upcoming dramas worth looking forward to.
For example, " YA She " tells the story of searching for ancient artifacts in the past and present life through time travel.
and "Wuyou Ferry" starring Ren Jialun revolves around strange and strange anecdotes.
But there is currently no news about these two dramas, but there is news about another fantasy drama.
" Xiao Qingyang " has officially announced the completion of . It seems that the broadcast is just around the corner.
With a clear storyline, distinctive characters, thrilling fight scenes, and a tense and depressing atmosphere, this drama can be regarded as the best among fantasy dramas.
01The plot is novel and the atmosphere is exciting
"Owl Rises from Green Soil" is adapted from Wei Yu's novel of the same name. It tells the story of the crazy knife Nie Jiuluo (Dilraba ) in "Nanshan Hunter" and Yan Tuo (played by Dilraba ) who has endured humiliation for many years. Chen Xingxu (played by Chen Xingxu) doesn’t know each other without fighting.
After experiencing several twists and turns, the two established a deep trust and worked together to fight against the local tyrants and protect peace.
Everyone is familiar with the dramas "Si Teng" and "Westward from the Jade Gate" adapted from two other novels by the original author, but their reputations are polarized.
Compared with the other two dramas, this drama has a very different setting. There are two highlights in the trailer that caught my attention.
is an alternative fantasy setting.
Generally, fantasy dramas in urban settings have settings such as soul exchange and time travel, but this drama is completely different.
It uses "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" as the source of its fantasy setting, which is extremely dangerous compared to the former.
Photophobic, carnivorous, and ferocious. The trailer gives three words to summarize the characteristics of the earth owl. However, the terrifying thing about the earth owl is that it can eat people and transform into human form, which looks no different from ordinary people.
In the trailer, the man who was standing there suddenly went crazy and rushed forward with his mouth open, and then was stabbed through the chin with a knife.
But the most terrifying thing is that behind these land owl there is a mysterious organization led by Lin Xirou (played by Zhang Li), secretly disturbing the peace.
This setting is more novel and thrilling than the urban ghost story setting.
The second is the double strong character design.
The setting of strong men and weak women has almost no advantage in the current plot, so the dual-strong setting has gradually become more common. The advantage of
is that when the male and female protagonists are evenly matched, whether they are in opposition or cooperation, the collision between the two people can produce a wonderful chemical reaction.
In this drama, the setting of the heroine Nijiuluo has nothing to do with weakness. As a crazy knife user who can really kill earth owls, she is simply the ceiling of the entire drama's strength.
Although the male protagonist Yan Tuo is not that high in strength, he is better because of his flexible mind. Because his family died tragically at the hands of local gangsters, he endured the humiliation and went undercover for many years, and finally got the chance to kill them all.
The two people were hostile to each other at the beginning, but gradually developed a good impression of each other in the process of cooperating against the local owl. The emotional line is clear, reasonable and logical.
This drama has a grand background and novel settings. At the same time, the emotional lines are interspersed in the plot without taking over the main role. Such a meticulous design and creative team are indispensable.
director Tian Li has directed the " River God " series. He has made a name for himself with small-cost, niche-themed fantasy dramas, and has his own unique understanding of fantasy themes.
has a solid foundation for the plot laid by the original novel. With the performance of director Tian Li, the plot of this drama is definitely stable.
02 Actors have good acting skills and good looks online
Looking at the cast of this drama, they need good looks and good acting skills.
No. 1, Di Lieba.
Although there are many controversies about her acting skills, Dilireba is definitely not inferior in terms of appearance. She can easily control whether it is an urban drama or a costume drama. In
's new drama, she is the key to the drama's appearance. She plays Nie Jiuluo, a member of the Nanshan Hunters, a folk organization with supernatural powers. In the trailer of
, her character Nie Jiuluo picked up a chopstick and pulled up her hair, holding a knife and staring murderously at the opposite side. At this moment, her identity as a cold killer and her bright appearance complemented each other perfectly.
Nie Jiuluo has a strong personality but has no desires. He only wants to live an ordinary life but is always involved in danger. Psychological change is the key to this character.
The role of Nie Jiuluo is very suitable for her. I believe she can perform well in this drama.
ranks second, Tian Xiaojie.
Tian Xiaojie, a powerful actor, has appeared as a supporting role in many dramas in recent years. His roles as Chen Mingzhang in "The Silent Truth" and Ding Shenghuo in "Gate of Rebirth" left a lasting impression on the audience. Very impressed.
In the new drama, he plays Jiang Baichuan. Although it is not yet certain which camp this character belongs to, Jiang Baichuan's mysterious and unpredictable temperament is very obvious. In the trailer of
, Jiang Baichuan slowly raised his head, and his eyes that were originally blocked by the brim of his hat were gradually exposed, looking straight ahead, and his eyes were full of oppression in conjunction with the overhead shot.
If Jiang Baichuan were a villain, Tian Xiaojie's acting skills would definitely be even more amazing.
The third place is Zhang Li.
Although it has always been tepid, Zhang Li's acting skills have always been remarkable. The tragic ending of the girl she played in "The Wind Rises in Luoyang" is disappointing. In
's new drama, Zhang Li plays Lin Xirou, the villain in the drama. She has black hair and red clothes, and her arrogance is revealed in every move she makes.
In the trailer, her colorful makeup, pale face, and arrogant look all combine to look eerie.
The role of Lin Xirou is quite stunning in the trailer, and Zhang Li’s performance is worth looking forward to.
is fourth, Lin Peng .
Audiences may not be familiar with this name, but he appears in "The Hidden Corner", " The Long Season " and "The Wind Blowing Pinellia".
As a frequent guest in suspense dramas, Lin Peng is very familiar with this type of work. In
's new drama, Lin Peng plays Liu Changxi. Although this is a fantasy drama, the plot also has a strong sense of suspense.
So there is no need to worry if this role is given to Lin Peng.
In addition, there are actors such as Chen Xingxu, Zhang Yichi, and Shi Yueling in the play. The leading actor has outstanding looks, a solid acting chops, and a solid plot setting. It would be a pity to miss this drama.
03 Conclusion
Although fantasy dramas are easy to produce hits, it is not that easy to make them well.
On the one hand, the settings in fantasy dramas are complex. The character settings, plot arrangements, and story framework all need to be set properly so that the settings can be established and the plot will not have big loopholes.
On the other hand, fantasy settings require a lot of special effects, which is also related to the perspective effect of the final picture.
Many fantasy dramas have failed on these two points, but "Owl Rises from Green Soil" has a solid foundation in the original work and a strong creative team.
As long as the plot is not changed and the feature film maintains the quality of the trailer, it will be easy to become a hit.
