In 2019, the anti-terrorism drama " Chang'an Twelve Hours " exploded, and the Tang Dynasty style once again aroused the audience.
is especially concentrated in 2021.
According to incomplete statistics from Uncle Me, among the domestic costume dramas that were broadcast this year, 6 of them were talking about the Tang Dynasty.
Unfortunately, this Tang Dynasty craze has never been popular in the circle except for a small-budget online drama "The Imperial Little Coroner".
They are 4.5 points in "Song of You", 4.0 points in "The Wind Rises of the Bright Skirt", 4.9 points in "The Song of the Little Song", 5.9 points in "The Song of the Long Song", 6.5 points in "The Wind Rises of Luoyang", and 7.5 points in "Imperial Little Corps".
I didn’t expect that I waited for it this year. When
was first broadcast, Uncle Meat didn't care at all and waited for it to be scolded silently.
Results Half a month passed, and it was broadcasted and the popularity became more and more high.
The audience who complained about watching the fun as if they were just starting the broadcast were actually trapped and were waiting for the sequel. Is there anyone else who hasn't watched it?
" Tang Dynasty Strange Things Record ".
Say the main creative team that you must think I'm crazy.
producer , which takes the overall situation, entered the low-scoring club of that year for a controversial movie "The Legend of Mother" four years ago. The next year, " Little Nyonya " was also not well received. What is the protagonist of
, or his eternal male lead younger brother Yang Zhigang, and Yang Xuwen, the new version of Guo Jing, who was once involved in the controversy and boycotted murder case.
D Renjie's disciple Su Wuming (played by Yang Zhigang) replaced the strangely dead Wu County Wei and went to Beijing to serve.
When I went there, I met Lu Lingfeng (played by Yang Xuwen) whom I didn’t like. What is the dislike of
? It turned out that the Zhonglang General wanted to take Di Renjie as his teacher but was rejected.
Di Renjie accepted a commoner Su Wuming as his disciple. Now the Central Army, who was born in the Lu family for a hundred years, was not convinced.
One shot, one curled their lips, and one spoke, Yang Xuwen took off his appearance as if it was burning at a glance.
Look again, Su Wuming.
Hippy smile, smooth in dealing with things, making jokes.
But his eyebrows and eyes turned, his eyes were sharp and his heart was as careful as silk. Yang Zhigang performed the secular sense of the city and the refinement of the veteran criminal investigation.
The old case has not been solved, and a new case has emerged. Based on the admiration for Di Gong and the same justice,
A article, a martial arts, a bravery, and a meticulous one, the two broke into the ghost market and worked together to solve the strange case.
Di Renjie & Yuan Fang 2.0.
The two will hone their friendship in the cracks of 9 strange cases.
To be honest, when I clicked on the first episode, Uncle Meat was confused.
has advantages: the plot density is extremely high, the rhythm is not dragging, the case progresses rapidly, and 6 people died in one episode.
case is also strange.
"Chang'an Black Tea" case is controlled by illusion, the death of famous scholars in the "Stone Bridge Picture" case is related to painting, the triplets and pythons in the "Gantangyi" case, the murder case in the dream, the "Zhengshengtang" is resurrected from the dead, the "Carpin God" worships the crocodile god, the use of flowers in the "Human Face Flower" case will corrode the skin and die, and the "Tantian Tower" illusion and conspiracy.
Disadvantages, the characters are flat, and the two protagonists are too simple. I adapted to several episodes before I recognized these two people.
As a crime-solving drama, the reasoning process is too ridiculous.
Chang'an black tea case.
Su Wuming got a miscellaneous book and learned about the Western Regions Huancao from it. It was found that the death of the county magistrate who just started was that the Western Regions Huancao was overdose.
At the same time, he and the general of the Central Army entered the ghost market and met Master Chicken. They learned about the special ingredients of spices on the bride's body and tracked down another type of banned drugs.
banned drugs were in an abandoned yard. The Zhonglang General went there and easily got it. There was no organ or guard. He had to sigh that the villain was really big.
Su Wuming pretended to be caught by the villain. From the time of the bride's disappearance and the time when the black tea was launched, it was inferred that the two cases were the same culprit. From the hole in the bride's head, it was inferred that the bride died of blood.
But the whole case ends, the plot does not explain the role of the bride's blood in black tea, only the few lines of the villain:
Why can the daughter of the minister's family be considered an extremely yin body, just because her father is a high-ranking official? Just because she is the heroine? ?
In the first case of 5 episodes, there are only cases that keep appearing in the case. The two male protagonists who are suddenly familiar with each other go to solve the case, and then the truth is revealed through the words of the villain and the male protagonist.
To be honest, "The Strange Things of the Tang Dynasty" is a suspense drama that reasons and solves cases. It is too eager to present strange cases and neglect to lay the groundwork. Uncle Rou feels that he fully understands the person who abandoned the first case; it is really lucky to get 7.6.
This is also the reason why Uncle Meat wants to talk about it today.
After that wave of Tang Dynasty stories, Uncle Rou finally saw the other side of this most prosperous and prosperous dynasty in history.
"demon".
high price blood tea, the bride disappeared, the white python in the abandoned house, the towering strange building.
The black cat that can transform into a beautiful woman in the sky, and the terrifying immortal who ascends quietly in the ghost market.
Welcome to Datang (version 2.0).
Tang Dynasty capital Chang'an City , regular and prosperous, houses lined up one after another, and intensive business businesses. There are two cities: east and west.
Dongshi regular , mostly fabrics, tea, ceramic antiques, and is a place where high-ranking officials and nobles often go.
Xicheng Huza , most of the merchants outside the domain gather here, and the ivory, beast horns, and strange-shaped bottles and treasures sold on the street are overwhelming.
The prosperous Tang Dynasty in our impression is like these two cities, prosperous and lively.
But in addition to the east and west markets, the Tang Dynasty had another face, the ghost market.
A knowledge point, the Tang Dynasty's curfew system is also very strict. Every day, using the 600 "closed-door drums" from the yamen as a signal, before the "open-door drums" sounded at 5 o'clock in the morning (3 o'clock in the morning), those who walk on Chang'an City Street for no reason will be sent to the government and punished.
, but the ghost market happened to be open during the curfew.
Open at sunset, and the rooster crows and closes.
In the ghost market, you can see all kinds of weird transactions and commodities.
Mysterious and charming.
is completely the opposite of the empire with prosperous power and wealth during the day.
"Records of the Strife of the Tang Dynasty" reveals this side of the Tang Dynasty monster.
may not know that many people do not know that the monster novel in my country developed at its peak in the Tang Dynasty. (That was a dynasty in which the author of a strange novel could be as famous as the poets in the literary world)
Tang Dynasty culture economy was booming, and citizens' entertainment methods began to vary. An art called "talking" emerged among the people.
The "talking" here is actually telling stories, from the rumors of palace secrets to the ghosts and strange cases among the people, everything is available. By the time of Li Longji, "talking" became a specialized performing art, which was popular and even became a pastime in the palace.
Stage work " Night Banquet in the Tang Palace " reproduces the entertainment method of the Tang Dynasty
In this atmosphere, the Tang Dynasty produced a new novel genre called Tang Legend . It was influenced by the Six Dynasties monster "Soushen Ji" during the Six Dynasties period, mainly narrative, and the style is close to unofficial history.
creators began to consciously create, include and then make up. The novels of monsters are no longer limited to ghosts, wonders and karma, and are closer to the lives of citizens and have more human feelings.
In the middle of the Tang Dynasty, many celebrities also began to write legends. Its status is no less than poetry. The familiar one is Duan Cheng's "Youyang Miscellaneous Zu".
The drama is adapted from the novel of the same name, and the novel is compiled based on the "Youyang Zazu", the king of ancient my country's strange notes.
"Youyang Miscellaneous Zu" was praised by Li Yunhu, the publisher of the Ming Dynasty , and was regarded as the "leader of strange notes" since the Tang Dynasty by Ji Xiaolan in " Siku Quanshu ".
So, under the nourishment of such imagination, Yao Tang also gradually grew stronger in the domestic ancient costume fantasy universe.
Chen Kaige 's " Demon Cat Legend ".
Tsui Hark " Di Renjie's Empire of the Heaven ".

All of this gradually perfected a gorgeous and weird Tang Dynasty world.
Strange stories, illusions, Taoist techniques, foreign legends, rare birds and beasts, palace anecdotes and bizarre cases. The monster here not only refers to immortals, demons, ghosts, but also because of the extravagance that there is danger behind the fog, but he can't help but get close because the glaze light that comes with the fog is very charming.
How is the "Records of the Strange Things in the Tang Dynasty" completed?
is worthy of being a team that has made "Soul Ferry". Without traffic, IP and no money, it has received 4.5 billion views, with an average high score of 7.9.
weird and fantastic skin, painted realistically.
producer Guo Jingyu also said that the funding for this drama is not much, but it is all "spent on the edge".
is willing to spend money, and only filmed four days of scenes and spent a lot of money to create a towering building.
achieves one case and one style, but the case is weird and scary.
black tea case, the ghost market is dark and gloomy.
The turtle god case, the turtle god is terrifying.
Due to the flood, the people treated crocodile as a crocodile, and also built temples as if they were decent: caves, secluded streams, and red draperies.
tower building case.
The main banquet scene of the towering building where the magic conference will be held soon.
Wooden board leads to the center of the stage, surrounded by pool water, and red columns with wave patterns.
Above the eaves are white cranes flying with wings spreading, with two dragons circling in the center of the stage, and at the end of the dragon's tail is a majestic dragon throne.
illusion, fantasy and changeable, like climbing to a fairyland, the entire landscape creates the paradise of mortal world.
Even a small wooden bird outside the building has a great background.
Although the close-up of this wooden bird is still not exquisite enough
The wonder has arrived, the charm of the strange Tang Dynasty lies in the legendary story under the prosperous wonders.
Lin You Inn, there is a servant named Liu Shiba. He looks strange and has a broken finger on his right hand. Anyone who moves in often disappears for no reason.
There is a fairy in the ghost market who is good at making Chang'an black tea. The tea is full of fragrance and a wonderful scene can be seen in the mind after the entrance. After drinking it, women nourish yin and skin, while men will maintain yang.
A flower in the city can keep youth forever. According to legend, Hu Shisi Niang, a former Sui Dynasty man, used human faces for a long time and maintained a girlish face at the age of 100.
is really so magical?
But as Su Wuming's case progressed, ghost affairs only originated from the deterioration of human hearts and people fell into ghosts.
(This part has a small spoiler, if you haven't seen it, you can pass this section)
It turns out that the post station has long been occupied by the python, the triplet brother, the third brother was abandoned and raised by the python, the eldest brother was blinded by the interests of the third brother, and the second brother was killed by the python to seek wealth. The second brother took into account the brotherly feelings and cooperated with the evil.
The so-called miraculous immortal tea is not an addictive drug with Western Regions Phantom Grass; the so-called immortal is just a lame man who is discriminated against in the officialdom.
Nat Hu Shisi Niang was a descendant of the palace maids of the previous dynasty. She learned the skills of the previous dynasty and committed evil in the inn, and retaliated against the Tang Dynasty in this way. And that human face flower has no eternal effect, but will corrode the skin and turn it into dry bones.
What is hidden behind the beauty flowers is just a conspiracy of aliens.
"Records of Strange Things in the Tang Dynasty" has achieved "records of Strange Things", but it is only limited to "records".
You can see that the crew has exhausted their ability to restore the fantasy Tang Dynasty, and the choice of cases also highlights the word "strange". The most regrettable thing about
is that it is still one step away from a double harvest of reputation and popularity, and this step is just "strange".
blindly create wonders but forget the root of suspense and reasoning.
Monsters, illusions, martial arts, and kings, the more settings, the preparation is essential.
"Records of Strange Things in the Tang Dynasty" is too urgent.
only stories, no characters.
Most of those ridiculous and ridiculous people can only use the "small essays" after the incident from Bai.
Looking back at the entire case-solving process, you rarely pay attention to it, let alone leave clues that lead to the truth.
There are too many characters in this drama that can be extended, specific and moving, even if it is the villain (the murderer).
Return to the Tang Dynasty in Chen Kaige's "The Legend of the Demon Cat". There are strange cases of
, and there are even more people.
The white crane boy who is untainted by the world finally became a ghost of revenge and no longer has a human form.
When I recalled the movie, what I remembered the most was not the Feast of Bliss, but the bitter smile of despair in Anshi Rebellion when Yang Guifei went upstairs, and before going upstairs.
Although there are regrets in "Records of Strife in the Tang Dynasty", it is also a proof.
Even if there is no big brand, no IP, no high budget, even if there is controversy.
Can avenge the shame of the past, it will always be the "heart" of the next movie.
