On March 6, the TV series "Happy Hero" was officially announced, and from March 7, Tencent** will be exclusively launched. This TV series stars Sun Yizhou, Lan Yingying, Yang Jue, and Bai Ke, among others. The play is adapted from Gu Long's martial arts**, written and directed by Shang Jing. Because of the blessing of director Shang Jing, this TV series is highly anticipated.
Jin Yong and Gu Long belong to the two style orientations of martial arts. Jin Yong pays more attention to the great feelings of the family and country of the knights, while Gu Long pays more attention to the grace of the knights as life individuals. TV dramas adapted from Jin Yong's martial arts are more common, and martial arts dramas adapted by Gu Long ** have been a bit depressed over the years. Therefore, this "Happy Hero" is more expected by everyone.
Viewers may wish to take a look at the plot synopsis of this TV series first:
The three elders who are eager to retire not only interrupt their living expenses, but also try to accelerate the growth of their children by creating problems in order to train their children Lin Taiping (played by Yang Jue), Wang Dong (played by Sun Yizhou), and Yan Qi (played by Lan Yingying) into ** people. Unexpectedly, the civilian chivalrous Guo Dalu (played by Bai Ke), who was killed halfway, disrupted their plan.
He became friends with three young heroes and ran a martial arts hall, a newspaper hall, a theater troupe, and a detective ......agencyNot only did the more you tossed and the poorer you became, but it also attracted the opponent to take advantage of the situation and enter the ......At the same time, the Four Young Heroes also have to face problems such as internal unity, hostile forces, and love disputes. Gradually, they have the ability to make a living, they cherish each other, and their love relationship has blossomed and ......When the three elders were determined to pass on the position of elder to the three young heroes, the young heroes refused. They feel that people who bring joy to themselves and others in the ordinary are also heroes.
Director Shang Jing is best known for works such as "Wulin Gaiden" and "The Story of the Cooking Class". In particular, "Wulin Gaiden" is a classic memory of a generation's sitcom. Because the play is a martial arts theme, many viewers consciously correspond to "Wulin Gaiden" and "Happy Heroes". Judging from the finalized trailer released by "Happy Hero", there is still a difference between this TV series and "Wulin Gaiden", and it cannot be classified as a simple sitcom.
However, director Shang Jing is good at sitcom creation, which will inevitably make this "Happy Hero" have the shadow of a sitcom. In recent years, the more popular "sitcom" is Dragon TV's "Start Broadcasting! Sitcom" is a variety show for two consecutive seasons. In this variety show, there are many more exciting sitcom creation shows. However, the entire sitcom market has not achieved the glory of the year, and the popularity of a few sitcom works is not the popularity of the entire market.
Because of this, director Shang Jing's return work "Happy Hero" is expected by many sitcom fans. Comedy with a martial arts theme is easy to be popular. For example, last year's "The Legend of Magpie Knife Gate" starring Mr. Zhao Benshan was a work that made the audience excited. I don't know if "Happy Hero" can achieve the market popularity of "The Legend of Magpie Knife Gate".
While maintaining basic expectations for director Shang Jing, we also need to pay attention to another thing: the creation of this TV series was completed in 2018, which is 6 years ago. After the completion of a TV drama work, it did not achieve an immediate launch and broadcast on the stars, and there must be many reasons. The reason why many inventory dramas enter the warehouse is that their own quality is really not good, and after watching the film in the industry, they lack the desire to buy.
Based on this, many TV dramas that have not been launched and starred for many years need to lower their expectations. Everyone has high expectations, and after "Happy Hero" is launched, it can't meet everyone's expectations, but it is easy to have an instant Waterloo of word-of-mouth.
When the TV series "Happy Hero" was filmed, Bai Ke was just a small coffee. Now, with comedy films such as "Don't Stop at the Annual Meeting", he has grown into a real comedy star. Obviously, there will be many fans who rush to see this TV series. In addition, there are many comedians such as Fan Ming, Jia Bing, and Liu Yajin in the play. In terms of comedy star lineup, this drama is still relatively strong.
In addition, the plot of this TV series announced to the public is 51 episodes. This number of episodes is still relatively rare in recent years. Back then, it was commonplace. In those days, the more TV episodes there were, the easier it was for producers to make money. Gu Long's original work ** is about 300,000 words, and it was adapted into a 51-episode TV series by director Shang Jing, which may indeed cause the problem of water injection in the play. In the current environment of film and television fast food, will director Shang Jing's "slow accompaniment" still work? Let's wait and see. (Wen Ma Qingyun).
