On the evening of September 27, the TV series " Tang Dynasty Strange Things Record " was launched on the genuine video platform 6 episodes. This TV series does not have a well-known actor, so you don’t have to spend a lot of money on the actor’s pay, so you can save a lot of money and use it in real production. Based on the content of the several episodes online, "The Strange Things of the Tang Dynasty" is well-produced and worthy of praise. It is feasible to ask for less or no traffic and put the expenses on production.
Based on the stories that have been broadcast, the big story of this TV series is quite good. It can be linked together and a thread of peeling off the cocoon appears. The way of two male protagonists is to tell stories to the audience along the clues of handling the case, which is also easy to bring the audience into the plot. In terms of suspense content, "The Strange Things of the Tang Dynasty" likes multi-line narratives, puts many suspense points to the audience at the same time, and answers slowly. These are all desirable and can attract audiences.
settings like East City , West City, Ghost City, etc. are not very new. There is no way, the film and television series of Di Renjie series are overwhelming on the Internet, and these concepts of Chang'an City have been ruined. Therefore, when these contents appear again in "The Record of the Strange Things in the Tang Dynasty", everyone may think that this is a way to pick up people's wisdom. Especially the setting of the ghost market does not have any thrilling feeling - because the audience is already too familiar with this content.
The opening plot of "The Strange Things of the Tang Dynasty" begins in episode 3, and there is a relatively obvious trend of story sinking. The reason is simple. The villains on the surface begin to appear and start fighting with the two male protagonists. At this point, the taste of this TV series is much weaker. Behind the so-called villain, there must be a bigger conspiracy, which is a good use in Di Renjie's series of films and TV series, especially the conspiracy ultimately points to the emperor, queen, princess, etc. This is not new.
"The Strange Things of the Tang Dynasty" is an ordinary TV series, and it can be regarded as a self-justified person and can be watched. However, if you want to watch this TV series as a high-quality drama, it is almost interesting. Why? Because excellent suspense dramas require suspense design based on real scenes. In other words, all suspense buttons must ultimately find the answer in real scenes. Like "The Record of the Strange Things in the Tang Dynasty", people who create illusions at any time seem to be more interesting, but in fact, the suspense power has weakened.
For example, at the beginning, a man who does not believe in evil directly uses a sword to chop the black cat, and then he cuts out a beautiful woman, and then he drowns in the pond himself. Hula, Hula, as soon as the illusion came out, the suspense texture of this TV series weakened. How Black Cat becomes a great beauty is very suspicious, but the explanation for the play is an illusion. This gives the audience a feeling of "you teasing me". This is the same as the ending of the cinema suspense thriller with "dreams", which is the same effect - it is purely discriminating against the aesthetic IQ of viewers and movie fans.
A truly good suspense drama does not require illusion or dreaming. In contrast, in "The Record of the Strange Things in the Tang Dynasty", content similar to illusions exists on a large scale. Especially in the main line, the content of "Chang'an Black Tea" can allow the audience to guess what is behind it at the beginning, but it is just something that can make people hallucinate. The use of this illusion is a very big taboo among film and television dramas with costumed case-handling themes. Because it's so much like kidding with the audience.
If there are too many film and television dramas in the past few years that have not been the Di Renjie series of illusions, suspense, and case investigations, then "The Record of the Incredible Things of the Tang Dynasty" can certainly scare many viewers. However, looking at the past ten years, there are too many film and television dramas in Di Renjie's series, such as illusions and jokes, they are all investigating cases in Chang'an City, and they are also the real murderers behind the royal family. This kind of story is too popular. "Records of the Strange Things in the Tang Dynasty" is not outstanding.
, especially in the play, said that the male protagonist is Di Renjie's disciple. This setting, which continuously appears in the form of lines in the play, gives the audience a feeling of riding Di Renjie's popularity.What is most afraid of in TV series is similarity. The biggest feature of this TV series is the same as those of the previous film and television series Di Renjie series. The large-scale use of illusion seems to be much more bizarre, but in fact it is not very meaningful, which has caused the weakness of the entire TV series.
also talks about acting. The two male protagonists, one is called Yang Xuwen and the other is called Yang Zhigang, both of whom are passing the acting level. The advantage of not using traffic actors is that no one has the acting shortcomings in the entire TV series. In the past, as long as there was a video platform participating in this type of film and television drama, it would definitely find two traffic stars to star in it and then hype up the CP. And this one doesn't. In the past, traffic stars often became short-term acting skills, which made the entire TV series unavailable. On the level of
, I am willing to give a thumbs up to "Records of the Strange Things in the Tang Dynasty". Although I am really familiar with this kind of TV series. In the past ten years, this type of film and television series has been watched every month, and I no longer think it is new. I believe that there are still many viewers with new ways of doing this. Therefore, "Records of the Strange Things in the Tang Dynasty" should not be short of me as an audience. (Text/Ma Qingyun)
