This year’s ancient puppet drama can be called a bleak one.

"Yan Xin Ji" is still relatively high and low, "Hua Hua Nian" and "Liu Zhou Ji" both received mediocre responses, and "Four Seas Chung Ming" is even less popular. Even "Sauvignon Blanc 2" has gained popularity and reputation. It's nowhere near as good as the first one.

It can be said that the popularity of ancient puppet dramas this year has gradually shrunk, and the law of hits has failed. What

has already aired has not caused any splash, but many upcoming dramas are already gaining momentum.

For example, "Seven Nights of Snow" starring Li Qin and Zeng Shunxi depicts a relationship full of twists and turns and regrets, while "Spring Flowers" starring Wu Jinyan combines intrigue and revenge. As long as these two movies are broadcast, they will not be different in popularity. .

However, there is nothing new about these two dramas at the moment, but there is news about another drama.

"Shujuan Yi Meng" has officially finished filming and released its final special episode, which will be broadcast on Tao.

This drama has a novel plot setting, fierce conflicts, exquisite pictures, and simple scenes. This drama has full potential to become a hit at first sight.

01 Plot: An alternative "book-traveling" setting, opening up the pattern

"Book of Dreams" tells the story of Song Xiaoyu who accidentally entered the world of the script and became ruthlessly abandoned and exploited by the male protagonist Nanheng ( Liu Yuning). The heroine Song Yimeng (played by Li Yitong ) was brutally murdered.

But Song Yimeng, who wanted to change the ending, was pushed back to Nan Heng by the script. The battle between the "little guy" and the established script is about to begin.

It can be seen from the trailer and synopsis that the most interesting setting in this drama is "threading books". And "threading books" is just the underlying logic. The two highlights in the trailer firmly locked my eyes.

Highlight 1: Breaking away from the "script" love-hate entanglement.

The setting of "Through the Book" is like a play within a play. Everyone already knows the original script, but the things that will change under this framework are still unknown.

In this script, Song Xiaoyu himself is the biggest variable in the script.

In the play, after Song Xiaoyu became Song Yimeng, he seemed to be unable to escape his tragic ending no matter how hard he struggled.

It seems that the "famous scenes" in the original script were staged step by step, but the relationship between her and Nan Heng has changed.

"If I die, that proves that I am not a paper person. I have really lived."

And Nanheng verified Song Yimeng's setting with his life. In all the contents of the script that remain unchanged, the current Song Yimeng and " Paper Man Nan Heng’s emotions are the only thing that breaks away from the script.

The emotional line in the play includes both the helplessness of struggling with fate and the pain of breaking away from fate. It is so impactful.

Highlight 2: The confrontation between the "Paper Man" and the determined destiny.

If it only revolves around the emotional line, the plot will be a bit thin. This drama is not only about a love story that transcends fate, but also the struggle of countless characters against fate.

In the play, Song Yimeng holds the script, but nothing can be changed, which will only make her suffer more than others.

But the "paper people" living in the world of the script don't know that their endings are doomed. People of all kinds are still living actively in their own predicaments, and no one will accept their fate.

Although it is not yet known whether the ending will change, the process of fighting against the established fate is already touching enough. The clever plot design of

benefits from the strong creative team.

Director Guo Hu's masterpieces " Lotus House " and " Zhou Sheng Ruji " are all hits in recent years. Guo Hu's past resume also mostly includes costume dramas, and he has rich experience in this type of subject matter. experience.

Shan Changbin, the art director of the show, has participated in the production of "Qing Qing Daily" and " Canlan Jue ".

has such a creative team, so there is no need to worry about everything from the plot to the graphics.

02 Actors: The protagonist has outstanding appearance and the supporting roles are good. The creative team of

is not only unique in the plot, but also has a precise vision in casting.

ranks first, Li Yitong.

Li Yitong has appeared more or less in the hit dramas in recent years. Meng Yu in "Hurry", Si Mingxingjun in "Canglan Jue" and Ai Qianxue in "Special Battle Glory", whether in ancient costumes The drama is still a modern drama, and Li Yitong's appearance has never fallen off the line.

In the new drama, Li Yitong’s makeup has reached a new level of beauty. In the

trailer, she plays Song Yimeng, who has bright eyes and white teeth, a peach-like face, and a quiet and elegant look, which makes her look like a classical beauty from a painting.

Especially when she was dressed in red and climbing up the stairs, she looked particularly bright against the heavy snow and dark night. The tear slowly flowing out of her eyes made her look a little bit pityful.

Li Yitong is simply the perfect candidate for this role.

is second, Jia Jinghui . The name

may not be familiar to the audience, but his role as Guo Baokun in "Celebrating More Than Years" must be fresh in their minds.

can portray this character in an impressive way, which is enough to illustrate Jia Jinghui's strength. In

's new drama, he plays Yao Qian. Judging from the trailer, Yao Qian should be a scholar who wants to obtain fame.

This character seems to be many times smarter and calmer than "Master Guo". Jia Jinghui's performance in this drama is worth looking forward to.

is third, Wang Yan .

Audiences should be familiar with Wang Yan. Qing'er played by Wang Yan in "Huanzhugege Part 2" has already become a classic image in domestic dramas.

And her guest appearance as Queen Zhaojie in " Yi Nian Guan Shan " is equally impressive, and her magnanimity is no less than that of back then.

In the new drama, Wang Yan plays the role of Concubine Gao, dignified and noble. The role of

may not have much role in the play, but it may be a key role.

ranked fourth, Liu Yuning.

Liu Yuning's performance in costume dramas is a bit unstable. In "Long Song Xing", he played Hao Du, who was restrained and affectionate. However, in "One Thought of Guanshan", his appearance and acting skills caused some controversy.

However, Liu Yuning's makeup in the new drama also fits his own temperament very well. His character Nan Heng is dressed in black and has her hair tied up, making her appear more heroic.

I hope that Liu Yuning can restore his reputation with this role.

This is also the first time that Liu Yuning and Li Yitong have paired up. Their sense of cp in the play is worth looking forward to.

In addition, there are actors such as Zhu Xudan, Chen Zihan, and Huang Weide in the play. This lineup must have good looks and good acting skills, and the characters in the play must be quite outstanding.

03 Conclusion

This setting of time travel is not new in domestic dramas, especially in the past two years, it has gradually become more common. The upcoming dramas "Fish" and "Eternal Night Galaxy" all have similar settings. The advantage of this setting of

is that it can break time and space, cause conflicts and collisions in behavioral concepts, create more highlights for the plot, and expand a larger narrative space.

However, although the routines are easy to use, too much repetition will make people tired. At this time, more fresh elements need to be incorporated into the play.

In this drama, "threading through the book" has been given a different meaning, which is related to fate and human will, enriching the level of the plot.

Therefore, I believe that once "Shujuan Yimeng" is aired, it is expected to become a new pinnacle in ancient puppet dramas.
