What happened to the ancient puppet market in 2024?
It is said that the summer file is the world of ancient puppets, which is indeed true.
From popular dramas such as "Flower Thousand Bone" and "Ancient Sword Strange Tan", to word-of-mouth hits such as "Step by Step" and "Zhou Shengru", the theme of ancient puppets has always dominated the national drama market in the summer file.
In recent years, although the number of ancient puppets has decreased sharply, every summer file, there are always popular ancient puppets that save the market.
For example, "Menghualu", "Canglan Jue", "Sauvignon Blanc" and so on are among the representative works.
However, looking back at the present, it is obviously a hot summer, but it makes people feel like falling into an ice cave.
The official leadership of "Du Hua Nian" didn't work, and the backlog of the 1-year big production "Sauvignon Blanc 2" collapsed even more word-of-mouth, not to mention the quality of small online dramas like "Break with You" and "Fold Eyebrows".
This summer, there are no eye-catching ancient puppet dramas that you can watch?
Don't worry, the ruthless goods are coming-
"Fox Demon Little Red Lady· Bamboo Industry Chapter" starring Liu Shishi, the goddess of 85 flowers, was strongly promoted by CCTV! The show has a strong lineup, and the picture texture is a must!
However, thinking of the "grand occasion" of the show's sister chapter "Fox Demon Little Red Lady · Moon Red Chapter", I am faintly worried in my heart, this time, don't overturn.
A true old saying, the ultimate sadomasochism
"The Fox Demon Little Red Lady" tells the story of Wang Quan Hegemony (played by Zhang Yunlong), the head of the Wang Quan family, who accidentally met Dongfang Huaizhu (played by Liu Shishi), a girl from the Oriental family, and the two were like-minded and made an agreement of "the seventh day of the seventh month of July, Huaishui Bamboo Pavilion".
However, Dongfang Huaizhu hides a huge secret behind him, in order not to be discovered, Dongfang Huaizhu married the royal power as a concubine, and then in order to leave offspring for the other party, Dongfang Huaizhu died of spiritual power during production.
Combined with the trailer, the show has two major highlights that make people fall into it.
The first highlight: the two love each other, join hands to fight outside.
Dongfang Huaizhu and Wang Quan Hegemony are respectively at the helm of the two major families, the Dongfang Family and the Wang Quan Family, with noble status, and their military strength is even the best of their generation.
The meeting between the two was an accident, the aesthetic of the royal power hegemony at this time was bad, and he always wore a smiling mask on his face, which looked cute and cute, not handsome at all.
But Dongfang Huaizhu could feel the young man's bold and unrestrained character from the other party's sword intent.
In the gradual getting along with each other, the two secretly fell in love, and after breaking through the clouds with a sword in the hegemony of the king, and after the war against the demon queen of the southern country, they made a promise of "the seventh day of the seventh month of July, Huaishui Bamboo Pavilion".
There are no misunderstandings between the two and outsiders intervening, and it is a natural love affair.
In addition, Dongfang Huaizhu and the king's hegemony are shouldering different missions.
Both of them will do their best to reinvigorate the alliance and work together to calm the situation between humans and demons
The second highlight: the ultimate BE literature.
Although the story background of "Fox Demon Little Red Lady" is grand, there is an absolute "love for everyone" between Dongfang Huaizhu and the hegemony of the king, and there is no different path for shemales.
But even so, the two failed to achieve positive results in the end.
Dongfang Huaizhu was originally the carefree eldest lady of the Dongfang family, but in the end, the family was ruined.
And the king's hegemony was also sunny and straightforward, but because of his youth and frivolity, he killed his brother and sister, and since then he has lost his sword heart.
The marriage of the two was originally a happy event for the two to be happy, but at this time, the two of them have already borne too many responsibilities, and it is difficult to simply love each other as before.
And when the royal hegemony was determined to regain hope in life, Dongfang Huaizhu's death completely crushed him.
Love can withstand all difficulties, but it can't withstand life and death, and the emotional line between Dongfang Huaizhu and the hegemony of the king is destined to be, which will definitely be the biggest abuse point of this play.
This new work, full of regret and sadness, is destined to become a classic that is difficult to surpass in the ancient puppet market.
Led by Liu Shishi, a feast of appearance
As an ancient puppet drama, the casting of "Fox Demon Little Red Lady" did not disappoint the audience, handsome men and beautiful women gathered together, and even the supporting roles were outstanding.
The first place, Liu Shishi.
Liu Shishi, as the "chosen costume person" of internal entertainment, is really beautiful, her demeanor is superb, and when she goes to that station, she is like an unyielding pine and cypress, proud and rugged, and quite ancient.
In the trailer, Dongfang Huaizhu played by Liu Shishi dances the sword in the bamboo forest, under the moonlight, the sword light is reflected on the face, the eyes are sharp, and the sword intent that breaks through the air seems to rush out of the screen, which is too emotional.
In another picture, Liu Shishi's tears are also quite shocking, and in the face-slapping shot, one of her tears seems to have a scorching heat, which makes people worry about it.
Liu Shishi has no shortage of good acting skills, only good roles, and this new drama will surely make her shine.
second place, Zhang Yunlong.
Although he can't be called a chosen costume person, Zhang Yunlong's costume style definitely does not pull his hips.
In the trailer, the lower half of the face of Wang Quan Tyrant played by Zhang Yunlong is wearing a mask, a pair of eyes are full of aura, and he looks up at the camera, his eyes are full of a sense of story.
When he took off his mask, he also had a face like a crown of jade, clear and handsome, and walked full of the majesty and domineering of the head of the family, with a serious and condensed complexion, quite the demeanor of everyone.
Zhang Yunlong's performance is quite layered, and he can convey the delicate emotions of the characters layer by layer, and his acting skills are remarkable. The role is given to him, and the director has an eye.
Third place, Pham Minh.
Even ancient puppet dramas can't be without old drama bones.
The appearance of national first-class actor Fan Ming gave me a big surprise. The acting skills of this veteran actor have been recognized by the audience since the beginning of "Wulin Gaiden".
It's just that in the past two years, the old drama bones have not caught up with good works, and the roles they have played are difficult to bring out their superb acting skills.
Fortunately, "Fox Demon Little Red Lady" is here.
In the new drama, Fan Ming plays the role of Steward Fei, in the trailer, he raises his hand to make an album, his face is respectful, and his eyes are full of sharp light, this role is not simple.
With Fan Ming, the acting master, the acting skills of the new drama are too stable.
fourth place, Peng Xiaoran.
The powerful Peng Xiaoran played Qu Xiaofeng in "East Palace" really earned enough tears from the audience.
In the play, Peng Xiaoran portrays the enthusiasm of the role in the early stage and the despair and pain in the later stage, and her excellent acting skills have made Qu Xiaofeng, a classic character.
In the new drama, Peng Xiaoran plays Jialan, in the trailer, she is full of exotic style in lilac makeup, and her smile is charming and moving, which is amazing.
It seems that this time, Peng Xiaoran is going to go out of the circle with her strength again.
fifth place, Tang Zhenye.
The old drama Bone Soup Zhenye played Xue Huaiyuan in "Ink Rain Clouds" is impressive.
is obviously a parent official who is loved by the people, but in the end he is persecuted for insanity, Tang Zhenye handles the arrogance and madness of the character just right.
In the new play, this powerful actor incarnates Nangong Ye, under a complicated costume, a pair of eyes full of a sense of story, and a mysterious smile on the corner of his mouth.
As soon as he appeared, the drama of scheming and calculation came out, and this good show was interesting.
In addition, Ding Yuxi, Wu Xuanyi, Shen Yue, Zhang Ruonan and other powerful actors with outstanding appearance will all play important roles in the play, this is definitely a feast of appearance and acting skills!
epilogue
In the current national drama market, ancient puppet dramas are becoming more and more lonely, and "Walking with the Phoenix" and "Fox Demon Little Red Lady · Moon Red Chapter" have not achieved ideal results, but have made the reputation of this type of theme drop again and again.
And the popular sequel "Sauvignon Blanc 2" has a comprehensive collapse of word-of-mouth, the plot has been changed, and the character has collapsed.
And how to break the game?
Just look at the new work of "Fox Demon Little Red Lady · Bamboo Leaves".
The 36 collectives of the play are moderate, and the grand world view constructed by the original book makes the plot full of highlights.
I believe that as long as the plot is not changed, the normal development of the original storyline, coupled with the superb acting skills of all the powerful actors, this new work will definitely be the ceiling of this year's ancient puppets!
