Hello everyone, welcome to watch "Night Rain Watching Drama", I am Night Rain. Today I want to talk about a costume comedy "The King of Kings" produced by TVB, directed by Lin Zicong, and starring Wang Haoxin and Yao Ziling. The drama will be broadcast on Hong Kong's Jade Channel on January 29, 2024, with a total of 18 episodes. This drama tells the story of the Qing Dynasty, when Song Shijie and a group of friends formed a small team to punish evil and promote good, and handled a series of unjust cases. That's right, it's the second part of "Song Shijie" played by Zhang Daming, but I didn't expect even TVB to start frying cold rice.
1. Plot introduction
Song Shijie (played by Wang Haoxin) is a talented teacher, known as the king of the state, his eloquence and heart are unmatched, and he can avenge the people's grievances and solve all kinds of difficult cases. His father, Song An (played by Zhang Daming), is a jailer with an honest personality and high hopes for his son. Song Shijie's brother Song Ajiu (played by King Kong) is a bold man who likes Nian Shanshan (played by Chen Zhenyi), Nian Shanshan is the cousin of Song Shijie's friend He Shouxin (played by Lin Zicong), He Shouxin is an honest and honest magistrate, and Song Shijie is a close friend. Song Shijie's wife Linglong (Yao Ziling) is a mysterious woman, strong in martial arts, fell in love with Song Shijie, and finally became husband and wife, her sister Xiaofeng (played by Wang Zihan) is Song Shijie's maid, smart and clever, like Chen Mengji (played by Chen Haomin), Chen Mengji is a person in the rivers and lakes, and Song Shijie became brothers.
This group of people formed a team that did not solve the case, and they encountered all kinds of strange cases, such as the case of the bride's disappearance on the wedding night, the case of the three brothers fighting for the inheritance, the mystery of Niu Dachun's death, the kidnapping case of Kuo Shaohu, Ye Sanniang's revenge plan, and so on. With wisdom and courage, they exposed many conspiracies and tricks, punished many wicked people and people, and encountered a lot of jokes and crises. Their stories are full of surprises and twists that make people laugh and frighten.
Two is surprisingly rotten
Although this drama looks interesting, it also has a lot of shortcomings. First of all, the screenwriter and director of this drama have nothing new, they just imitate Xing Ye's style, but they don't have Xing Ye's laughter, and many of the scenes are fried cold rice, such as Song Shijie's cross-dressing, Linglong's ugly, He Shouxin's stupidity, and so on. We have watched these episodes countless times, there is nothing new or logical, just to create jokes.
Secondly, the actors in this drama are not very suitable, Wang Haoxin is not suitable for acting in ancient costumes, his appearance and figure do not conform to the aesthetics of costume dramas, his acting skills are also very bland, there is no breakthrough, his Song Shijie has no personality and charm, just an ordinary teacher. Yao Ziling's appearance and age are not in line with Linglong's role, her Linglong has no sense of mystery and charm, just a brutal woman. The other actors don't have any highlights, they are all old faces, there is no freshness, and there is no acting skills, they are just messing around.
Finally, the production of this drama is also very rough, the costumes and props are very historical, many details are very casual and not elegant, such as Song Shijie's glasses, exquisite wigs, He Shouxin's watches, and so on. These are obvious mistakes that make people feel very unprofessional and disrespectful to the audience. The sound effects and dubbing of this show are also poor, many of the voices are harsh, and many of the dubbing are very incongruous, which makes people feel very uncomfortable and unreal.
3. Summary
In general, this drama is an inferior fried cold rice, there is nothing new and creative, just relying on some old-fashioned bridges and actors to attract the audience, but the effect is not good, but it makes people feel very boring and boring, but the plot of this drama still has some surprises and reversals, although some of the bridges are fried cold rice, but there are also some bridges that are creative and humorous, such as the emotional line of Song Shijie and Linglong, they go from disliking each other to loving each other, from calculating each other to trusting each other, From framing each other to redeeming each other, their story is full of twists and turns, as well as some sweet and heartwarming moments. In short, you can still take a look at it when you are bored with friends during the New Year's holiday, after all, you can have a lot of fun! February** Dynamic Incentive Program
