Shadow Comprehensive Star Seeking Excellence Program
Anyway, how long has it been since you've seen a serious male frequency drama? Nowadays, whether it is on Star TV or major **, it is popular to set up a woman with two or three men, is there really no market for the big male lead drama now?
Recently, "Zichuan: Three Heroes of Light" was successfully airborne, allowing Liu Yuning to continue to brush his face. At the beginning of this time, the three big male protagonists were officially announced, no matter how you look at it, they are all dramas in which male frequency engages in careers. Because in the series, there are not only Liu Yuning, but also "Zhonglang General" Yang Xuwen and Zhang Mingen starring.
Liu Yuning's "Zichuan: Three Heroes of Light" is adapted from the same name** "Zichuan" tells the story of Zichuan Xiu of the Zichuan family and two good brothers working together to resist foreign enemies and revitalize the world. The content of this big IP is no less than that of "Celebrating More Than Years", "Douluo Continent" and the like. The story is a good story, it depends on how the director shoots it.
But it's a pity: so far, the popularity of "Zichuan" is far less than that of "Celebrating More Than Years". That's because "Celebrating More Than Years" has taken advantage of the right time, place and people from casting, makeup and even the plot.
As a drama that values realistic plots rather than makeup, "Zichuan" may be very qualified, but if you want to give fans an explanation when it is launched now, this is a bit of a stretch.
is like what was said on the Internet: the tone of the picture is a little gray, and the service is mainly dark, and the whole TV series looks gray and not bright at all. The most important thing is that Liu Yuning, the originator of the "rat handsome guy", has slid straight to Siberia in this drama.
But these are all minor problems, as a popular IP for male frequency, "Zichuan" does not need to be liked by friends who love beauty filters, and it is also good to focus on men's dramas.
There is a saying that "Zichuan" is not an idol drama, but a real men's drama. I really don't need too much beautification. In the shot, the battlefield on the border shows a high level both in the long shot and in the close-up shot. For a TV series of this level, the overall scenes and special effects are really amazing and speechless.
But the cow is a real cow, and the crotch pull is the real crotch pull.
01 The plot is too thin and naïve.
In the play, Zichuan Xiu was stationed at the border pass, and he defeated 300,000 enemy troops with 30,000 people with less victories. This great achievement has attracted envy, jealousy and hatred. His master's nemesis, Yang Minghua, planned to slander him for colluding with the enemy.
As a result, the battle was imminent, and Zichuan Xiu used his divine power to kill the enemy general, but in order to cover up his whereabouts, he lied that he was sleeping in the camp tent at that time. Yang Minghua's subordinates said that the war was imminent, and Zichuan Xiu's snooze was dereliction of duty, and there was definitely collusion with the enemy.
I never expected this Zichuan Xiu to say that his father-in-law asked him to pursue the enemy army, and he won a big victory! I have to talk about it decently, I don't believe this reason that I'm a villain!
Besides, this villain Yang Minghua wanted to bring down a general who had just won a battle, but he couldn't even forge a reason and forcibly charged the other party. Did you learn this trick from Qin Hui?? This villain's IQ is not good!
And when the two armies were talking together, Zichuan Xiu won a big victory and captured Princess Cardin to threaten her. But Cardin's brother didn't want to negotiate peace, so he killed his sister ruthlessly. As a result, the princess saw the mark left by the clansmen, and secretly left Si Yilin's palace.
Director, you tell everyone: hostages are hostages, what tricks does she have or the ability to penetrate walls to make the guards turn a blind eye to her? How did such a big job run out of the palace under everyone's noses?
Besides, Si Yilin found that the princess was gone, so he hurriedly ran to chase after him single-handedly! Before daring to do chores, the general himself did it himself, and the guards were just guards, just guarding the residential courtyard.
02 The degree of restoration in the play is not high.
Friends who have read the original book have the most right to speak. What is the description of the "Three Heroes of Zichuan" in the book? The eyes are clear and heroic!
Maybe the director shouldn't explain his casting to the fans, but he has to restore seven or eight points to be worthy of the audience, right?
It's a male frequency plot, and the casting of the actors is not too important, otherwise the show is really a bit unbearable. Originally, the original book was full of top handsome guys, but it turned out that the play presented such a combination.
03 Hardware technology such as shooting techniques is not up to par.
The book is connected to the above, even if the restoration is not in place, the normal pretending and camera angle can also promote the strengths and avoid the weaknesses of the actors. In fact, the leading actors themselves are not ugly, but they do not resist the director's straight male shooting techniques at all.
Especially Liu Yuning, under the appropriate makeup, he looks very good in "An Le Biography" and "Long Song Xing". And his appearance is not eye-catching enough, which is even more miserable under the death lighting and camera movement of "Zichuan".
mentioned earlier that the whole drama feels gray, and the main culprit for this reason is the crew's puzzling death lighting and alternative Qingqi shooting angles.
Because through clever lighting design, it will greatly help the actor shape the image and highlight the temperament. But the director of "Zichuan" asked the actor to push the camera with a big face. Even Zhang Mingen, who looks okay, has not escaped the director's rebellious hands!
This has caused senior veteran actors to pay attention to the appearance of typhoons, and the finished products are very film-like, but it is miserable for young actors who are not born in professional classes and have poor appearances.
So under all kinds of coincidences, the three leading actors showed a phenomenon that was uglier than the other under the lens of regardless of people's lives and deaths.
Therefore, even if you have a big IP, it is impossible to 100% succeed in putting a good reputation on the screen. Although it is a male frequency**, it is not that the character can be restored to the original setting if it is rougher, there is no transitional lens processing, and it is not that it can be filmed so that the audience can find resonance.
Although it is said that if you do good deeds, don't ask about the future. But there are some things that are right at the right time and no one is missing to be successful.
