The palace fight drama was a big hit back then, whoever filmed it was popular, and the more popular it was, the more people filmed it.
All of a sudden, all the dramas on TV were palace fights, which were dazzling.
As a result, because the plot is too funny and outrageous, and the logic does not make sense, the screenwriter also likes to form CPs and engage in polyamory for real historical figures at will, which leads to a collective crusade by the literary and historical circles.
In the end, he was beaten back by a "** order".
However, there is no shortage of excellent works in palace fighting dramas, such as "The Legend of Zhen Huan", which has developed "Zhen Xue", and "The Legend of Ruyi", which has a lot of investment.
Despite this, in recent years, there are still few shadows of palace fighting dramas in the domestic drama market.
However, just a few days ago, a drama that had been suppressed for several years was quietly reviewed and broadcast, and it was Tencent's "Years of Qinglian".
"Years of Green Lotus" starring He Rundong and He Hongshan, and the plot is adapted from "The Legend of Concubine Xi". The original ** is a standard palace fighting drama, which tells the story of Xi Guifei who passed five levels and cut six generals and was constantly promoted.
If it is filmed according to the original **, firstly, it will be a bit "colliding" with the previous classic palace fighting drama, and secondly, it will not be easy to pass the trial.
So the palace fight became a house fight, and the location of the dispute was changed from the harem to the prince's mansion, and the overhead background was applied.
He Hongshan, who plays the heroine Qinglian, should be quite familiar to those who have watched "The Legend of Ruyi", it is the "little pipa essence".
This time, she is no longer the little palace concubine, but the favored heroine.
Qinglian was originally a naïve and ignorant little girl, but because she looked a little similar to the late princess, she was dragged into the whirlpool of power.
Is this plot a little familiar? Isn't this the "Guanguan class" in "The Legend of Zhen Huan"?
When it came to the prince's selection of concubines, it made people feel familiar.
In order not to be selected, Qinglian deliberately pretended to be ugly, hoping to lose the election. As a result, careful thinking was punctured, but he was still chosen.
This seems to be a bit similar to Zhen Huan.
And the reason why Qinglian didn't want to be selected was because she had already had a sweetheart and had made a private decision for life.
This opening does have a bit of the flavor of Gong Dou, and many plots can even find shadows.
But as long as the plot is exciting and good-looking, it may not be a new dinner drama. I don't want to be the second "The Legend of Zhen Huan", but I also hope to have a passing level.
But the further back I looked, the more disappointed I became.
First of all, it is difficult for the appearance and acting skills of the male and female protagonists to make people feel substitution.
He Hongshan actually has good looks and acting skills, and she can still have many highlight moments when she plays supporting roles. Isn't the role of "Little Pipa Spirit" quite deeply rooted in the hearts of the people?
But once she played the heroine, she was timid.
In costume dramas, manners are very important. But looking at her, I always feel that her neck is a little forward, and she is a little hunchbacked.
Secondly, there is no level to the performance, there are just a few expressions back and forth, and it is really embarrassing to watch.
The male protagonist He Rundong is no better, he doesn't know where to start vomiting if he wants to complain.
Of course, if the drama is not good, the actor can't be left alone.
None of the screenwriters and directors can escape.
The plot is too bloody, the villain seems to have no IQ at all, many plots are inexplicable and hasty, and the logic is not smooth.
No wonder Douban is scolding "too much intelligence" and "so bad that it makes people laugh out loud".
has only been broadcast much, and it has received countless bad reviews, and this drama is afraid that it will be cold.
It's not that palace fighting dramas can't be filmed, and it doesn't have to be benchmarked against "The Legend of Zhen Huan", but if there is no passing line, don't blame the audience for not buying it.
