This year's domestic drama "Flowers" has really started well, and the national drama seems to have begun to roll in the direction of high-quality and textured.
Just after January, a number of blockbuster dramas have announced their start dates one after another.
This year's most anticipated modern idol drama "In the Stormy Hour" will be released on satellite TV.
Wu Lei and Zhao Jinmai starred, two actors with high national popularity. In order to capture the essence of the original book, the crew also deliberately went to the Netherlands to shoot and successfully mastered the sense of atmosphere.
Yang Ma is even more powerful here, and she participated in the production of two blockbuster dramas at once.
"South to North", a period drama, can be said to be as famous as "The World", whether it is from the finalized poster or the starring lineup, the ratings are basically certain to be a great success.
The long-awaited costume suspense drama "The Case of Di Gong of the Tang Dynasty" finally met the audience, and some people once called it an upgraded version of "Tang Dynasty Legends".
Whether it is the subject matter of the series, the starring lineup, or the scale of filming, it is enough to make it a popular work.
What's more, this is still on a platform like Yangba, needless to say, the popularity at the beginning of the year is needless to say, as long as you look at who can win the first position with "South to North".
This drama attracted 5.6 million people to make reservations on the ** platform 6 days before it was broadcast, breaking the cool reservation record and becoming the number one in the ranking.
Although the national drama in early February was lively and of high quality, Qingshi was attracted by a piece of news-
The filming of "Qingming Shanghe Tu Password" has been successfully completed!
CCTV had already determined the broadcast plan at the beginning of the filming of the show.
I heard that at the time of start-up, the crew even set up a party branch, and even went directly to Kunshi News, which shows that they are highly valued.
This big drama is finally finished now, and Qingshi can't wait to recommend it to everyone.
With just a few stills, this drama almost let us see the potential of "the strongest national drama in 2024", which is really attractive.
Qingshi wants to follow the convention and lead everyone to analyze, what reason does this drama have to expect it to receive the highest rating in 2024?
This work has been hailed as "a strange book across the century", which took more than 7 years and involved 824 "protagonists" alone.
Adapted from the work of the eponymous series** "The Code of the Riverside Map at Qingming Festival".
When it comes to this, we can't ignore Zhang Zeduan's "Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival", which is a masterpiece that has been handed down to the world.
The Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival is one of the top ten famous paintings in China.
This work uses scattered perspective composition to vividly record the prosperity of the Bianhe River in Tokyo, the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty of China, and the living conditions of people from all walks of life at that time, with a size of 5287 cm, width 248 cm.
It not only witnessed the prosperity of Tokyo, the capital city of the Northern Song Dynasty, but also truly reflected the economic situation of the city in the Northern Song Dynasty.
The scroll is more than five meters long and contains 824 people, more than 60 livestock, more than 20 wooden boats, and a variety of characteristic buildings.
The whole picture can be divided into three main parts: the spring light of Bianjing, the landscape of the Bianhe River and the market in the city.
This famous painting that celebrates the prosperity of the peace deserves special mention, and 25 years after its dedication, the Jin soldiers invaded on a large scale.
The city was burned and killed, and the fire in Bianjing City burned for three days, and the prosperity of the Northern Song Dynasty disappeared overnight.
Ye Wenbiao developed a strong interest in "The Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival", which took three years to conceive, seven years to create, and ten years of hardship to complete this work.
The Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival is famous for its lively scenes, but it does not just show a prosperous city scene, but a "prosperous and dangerous picture" full of a sense of distress.
It's like an abandoned high-rise fire tower in the city.
Food crisis.
*Lazy. The gates were unguarded, and the silence was unattended.
The first climax of the scroll is the shipwreck, which is particularly noticeable.
On the Bianhe River, an ordinary passenger boat is about to cross the Hongqiao, and the picture is connected by the boats.
Since there was no time to lower the mast, it seemed that the ship would immediately crash into the rainbow bridge.
The boatmen were scrambling to support the bridge with long poles.
There were many people on the bridge, some people were making loud noises, some people were eating melon seeds quietly, and some people stayed out of the matter and quarreled with others.
It was in this untimely contradiction and conflict that Ye Wenbiao created a shocking case.
In the chaos, the shadows of the thieves flickered, and when the smoke cleared, people were surprised to find twenty-four corpses ...... lying on the passenger ship
Amid the cries of the hawkers, spies and assassins from Jin, Liao, Western Xia, Goryeo and other countries have quietly infiltrated the painting, pretending and ambushing in boats, cars, sedan chairs, wine shops, pavilions, and the sparkling clouds of the Bianhe River are filled with the smell of death.
Ye Wenbiao gave every detail in the painting a reasonable imagination, making the story vivid and bizarre and real, and a magnificent situation can be slowly unfolded.
The six forces of Song, Goryeo, Liao, Jin, Western Xia, and Fangla, as well as the five major groups of scholars, farmers, workers, merchants, and soldiers, as well as more than 20 kinds of reasoning and tricks, and more than 80 large and small cases.
Therefore, it is for this reason that people call this book a strange book that blends history and mystery suspense.
After the publication of the book, because of its meticulous research and dense logical reasoning, it shook the historical and literary circles, and triggered a large-scale pursuit of readers, which can be called the most magnificent historical reasoning pattern in history!
The Japanese Mystery column also gave the work a very high evaluation of "depicting the ambition of the Northern Song Dynasty".
It is said that as soon as this book was published, its film and television adaptation copyright immediately caused a frenzied bidding, and was finally successfully bagged by Alibaba Pictures with hundreds of millions of yuan.
After the book was confirmed to be adapted into film and television works, it was rumored that it would be made into a series, using the style of Pan Yueming's version of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", and signing multiple works at once.
This big drama has been well thought out from the beginning of filming, and it won't be bad no matter what!
What kind of story does the stage play of "The Code of Qingming Shanghe Tu" tell?
The story of this series mainly describes the life of Zhao Buyou's family who lived in Qi'er Lane in Bianliang City during the Xuanhe period of the Northern Song Dynasty.
As the plot deepens, five intricate cases are gradually revealed:
The mystery of the Bazi case, the confusion of the sachet case, the suspicion of the Fan Lou case, the staggering transformation case, and the Meichuan case affect the whole body.
Each case arouses curiosity.
According to what is known so far, this series should be laid out in the form of a case and a part, with a total of 30 episodes telling a major case, and it will also depict the customs of the Great Song Dynasty. It's been a long time since I've seen such a grand and magnificent costume historical suspense drama.
The main creative team can be described as the "best combination" of domestic dramas, inviting Zhang Songwen to play the leading role, and 12 powerful actors to help.
Who will be able to perform this film? Who will be the director? After all, there is an excellent original book as a foundation.
Don't worry"Qingming Shanghe map password"The main creative team is also very heavyweight, and it can be called a top figure in the field of national dramas.
Director Yang Fan, who once directed "Gentlemen's League", although the popularity of this drama is not high, it is commendable in terms of shooting and picture presentation.
The texture of the picture is excellent, some of the clips are cleverly designed, and the director's talent is commendable.
Judging from the texture of the final photos, this drama has undoubtedly invested a lot of money, and the director's ability in composition and light and shadow processing is also very good.
A casual drama** that is not only old-fashioned in tone, but also full of storylines.
The new screenwriter Yan Chao has relatively few works, and there are not many works that have come out before.
The story of the original book itself is very strong, and as long as the original work is respected during the filming process, there will be no rollover.
The starring lineup of "The Code of Qingming Shanghetu" can be described as the top choice, and it is by no means inferior to the director and screenwriter.
No matter which names you choose, you can see excellent acting skills in national dramas.
Zhang Songwen ranked first.
Among the starring lineups of "Qingming Shanghe Tu Code", the most eye-catching is Zhang Songwen, who became popular last year for starring in "Hurricane".
Zhang Songwen's acting skills have always been well known.
In "The Hidden Corner", he also had a great performance, and before "Hurricane".
The scene where Zhu Chaoyang and him eat noodles together on the side of the road is very appropriate, both in terms of emotional expression and facial expression.
Gao Qiqiang's performance in "Hurricane" is a must.
Through his excellent performance, Zhang Songwen vividly showed Gao Qiqiang's character state in three different stages, and used advanced acting skills very well to make the character image lifelike.
His interpretation of this role can definitely put him in the top three acting performances in 2023. No exaggeration.
Gao Qiqiang's complete exit from the circle has increased the number of books he can choose from, and Zhao Buyou, the protagonist of "The Code of Qingming Shanghe Tu", is one of them.
Even if Zhao Buyou is also a book-copying official in Dali Temple, he is also a resourceful person with the potential to investigate cases.
Judging from the stills, Zhang Songwen showed his ingenuity.
In order to conform to the role setting of him as a copyist, he has been hunched back slightly, this detail has been handled very well, this character must be lifelike!
The second to appear is Bai Baihe.
Although the choice of the heroine is somewhat unexpected, as the former spokesperson for the chick, Bai Baihe's acting skills are beyond doubt.
In her latest work, Welcome, Jung You-eun shows her current level of acting.
Looking at the stills, it can be seen that the character she played this time seems to be a rather assertive person.
Her appearance exudes a quaint charm, as if reminiscent of the high-profile movie "Monster Hunt" back then, which makes people look forward to her performance in the play.
Monday Wai, ranked third.
Zhou Yiwei is also an old face in high-quality domestic dramas, and he will play the starring role in the upcoming "Tang Di Gong Case", which can be described as a popular fried chicken.
The trailer of several scenes has already shown the changes in the actors' acting skills.
The constant praise of the veteran actor is well deserved, after all, he has been professionally trained.
Judging from the way he dressed, Gu Zhen seemed to be a petty official, looking into the distance with a solemn face, and his expression revealed a story.
Hou Yansong, ranked fourth.
Qingshi felt that Hou Yansong's performance was the most amazing among the many stills.
Hou Yansong is known as an old drama bone, and everyone must agree with this title. He is also a national first-class actor at the National Theatre.
He excels at using body language and voice to portray and enrich characters. In 2023's "The Silk Case of the Ming Dynasty under the Microscope", he brilliantly interpreted the representative role of Fang Maozhen.
Dressed in a brown and yellow robe, he sits on a chair with his feet crossed, holding stills of classical Chinese music in his hands.
The leisurely movements are unpretentious, as if the characters in the ancient paintings are actually coming out, and they don't look like they are performing at all.
This drama is even more precious because of the joining of an old drama bone.
Lin Jiachuan, ranked fifth.
Lin Jiachuan has an excellent performance in "Hurricane", and he is now also appearing in "The Code of Qingming Riverside Map".
His eyes look different in the stills, as if he is hiding some kind of secret.
No matter what the character is, Lin Jiachuan can accurately grasp it.
Li Naiwen ranked sixth.
Another leader who shows his strength!
In recent years, Li Naiwen has attracted much attention for a simple reason: his excellent performance and attentive attitude are impressive.
He played the role of Zhao Shuhe, the village party secretary, in the TV series "Splendid Mountains and Rivers", using an authentic dialect, and even blackened ** and dyed his teeth yellow for the role.
He also behaves just right when dealing with delicate emotions, which is reflected in "The Daughter Who Came Back".
This time, he played the ** Dylan, wearing an official uniform, looking upright and majestic, which makes people wonder if his role in the play is more complex than what is shown in the stills.
During the day, the sea is in seventh place.
The sea is extremely malleable and can change dramatically in a day!
Whether it is the anti-first officer in the TV series "The Wind" or the pseudo-mother in the movie "Don Quixote", he has a strong sense of character creation and great contrast, and is even nicknamed the "Transformers" in the film and television industry by industry insiders.
Dressed in exotic costumes and showing a distinctive image in the play, he is likely to be a key figure in the first plot.
This kind of image is not common in domestic dramas in recent years, a bit like the style of Wolf Wei in "The Twelve Hours of Chang'an".
Wang Peilu ranked eighth.
Wang Peilu, the old face in "Hurricane", also joined the battle. Not only did he make a splash with a meme, but he also showed impressive acting skills.
In fact, he showed excellent acting skills very early, and won the Grand Jury Prize at the 4th China Independent Film Festival for the film "Anzi".
He also joined the ranks of the show this time, and there is no exact news yet on which role he will play, looking forward to a wave
Arranged in ninth place.
Zhang Zeduan, played by An, is "resurrected" by another person in the painting in the stills.
Dressed as a scholar, he exudes an unusual temperament, and what he sees is the writer of the story in the painting, as if he is outside the painting, isolated from the world.
His expression was all in that glance.
There are also many young actors whose performances have also been recognized by the audience, in addition to the above nine undoubtedly powerful factions.
Zhang Yao has excellent performances in "Young You" and "Youth Travel".
Xia Meng showed a smart performance in "Sunshine Sisters".
Zhang Xinyu and Jiang Peiyao's appearance is amazing, and it can be seen from their costumes that this drama has really worked hard.
Just now in "Dog Leftovers Run", the actor performed the role of "Bai Yueguang" very well, and the audience saw the heartbreaking Wang Xinger and also starred.
and some people, including You Jingru, Wang Duo, Zhang Tianyang, and Hao Fushen.
The strength of this lineup alone is enough to arouse people's expectations.
The real secret of the "Qingming Shanghe Tu Password" is still waiting to be revealed!
3 billion! In order to shoot this drama, a city was built directly. This costume suspense drama will open a new era.
When the show started, it immediately appeared on the official news.
The script and starring of this drama are exciting, and not only that, but there are more stories behind this drama.
The first thing to do is to build the city.
At the beginning of filming, the person in charge of the platform of the show said that he hoped to show the cultural style of the Northern Song Dynasty with the scale and momentum of the aircraft carrier.
In order to achieve this goal, it is clear that the existing shooting scenes are not enough.
In the Zhouzhuang Digital Dream Factory in Kunshan City, they directly built a Song Dynasty city.
In this scenic area covering an area of 146 acres, the exterior landscape of Song Dynasty buildings has been carefully built, and a number of scenes and landmark buildings in the "Qingming Riverside Map" have been restored 1 to 1, and there is no doubt that this is the largest and most restored Song Dynasty real scene base in China.
I need to clarify that the investment of 3 billion is not for the production of this drama, but for the construction of this Song Dynasty film and television base, and "The Code of Qingming Shanghetu" is the first film and television work to be filmed here.
According to the stills released so far, it can be seen that the scenes in the play truly reproduce "Qingming Riverside Picture".
Just like the section on the bridge, the sedan chair collided with the rider and had to stop, the scene is the same.
The boatman struggled to hold the boat under the bridge because the boat hit the bridge.
The reproduction of this building on the real street is even more detailed than the restoration in the picture.
In addition, the crew has also done a very fine job in restoring makeup and hair.
There are two dramas that have received relative attention in recent years, and there are not many dramas set in the Song Dynasty.
Qing Ping Le is a drama series with the theme of the noon sun, and its makeup has successfully recreated the style of the Song Dynasty.
After "Da Song Gong Ci" starring Liu Tao, even if you ignore the plot and focus on costumes, this drama can be said to be very good.
These two dramas show more of the life of the nobles of the palace, so what about the lives of ordinary people?
The Qingming Shanghe Tu Code reveals this.
Observing the stills, it can be clearly seen that whether it is the clothing style of ordinary people or the dress of nobles, it can be immediately recognized and conforms to the historical background.
Although the finale special has not yet been released, and we don't know anything more and more detailed information, just based on these stills, we can already feel the high quality of this drama.
This drama is undoubtedly a wonderful work.
Secondly, virtual shooting is also possible.
Virtual shooting is a common term in film and television production, and everyone is familiar with it.
This approach was adopted by last year's popular dramas "1899" and "Dragon Family".
This method of filming is becoming mainstream, but the domestic technology has not yet reached the level where large-scale shooting can be carried out.
This time, the "Qingming Riverside Map Code" reveals the characters who eat crabs for the first time.
The show made extensive use of virtual filming during the filming process, which in short, brought the post-production work ahead of schedule.
During the filming process, the director was already able to foresee the basic finished film.
In this way, a lot of cost savings can be achieved in the later adjustments.
Of course, this method places high demands on the actors' acting skills, but fortunately, "The Code of Qingming Riverside Map" does not worry them.
There is no doubt that "The Code of Qingming Shanghe Tu" has been at the forefront of national dramas in terms of filming techniques.
Qingshi has to admit that whether it is the script, director, actors, or the show's intentions and bold attempts in filming, this drama deserves to be called "the most anticipated work in 2024".
There will be many wonderful performances this year, and it can be said that it is not to be missed!
