Chen Zheyuan's "Nine Days of Phoenix" just premiered, why was it rated as a vulgar fantasy drama?

Let's talk about the good points of "Nine Days of Phoenix" first. Similar to some fantasy dramas in the past, this drama is good at shooting, especially in the costume props of some actors, which is very exquisite. Of course, this kind of fantasy drama that does not mount a specific historical dynasty is easy to achieve refinement in costume props. Many TV dramas with specific historical background are afraid to mess around in terms of costumes, props and even architectural scenery because they have clear dress requirements.

On the contrary, this novel "Nine Days of Phoenix" appeared as a fantasy drama, which itself is an overhead history and has no specific dynasty background. Therefore, in many aspects such as architecture, props and costumes, it is based on the principle of how to look good and how to come. It is precisely because of this principle that in this TV series, many actors' dresses are really eye-catching. Of course, friends who are willing to delve into history and culture may question that such beautiful clothes have no dynasty background, really? Cut at will? Yes.

In terms of shooting level, this film "Nine Days in Phoenix" can also be called relatively good. In the opening story, the confrontation between the two armies in the era of cold weapons appeared, and the relative momentum of these dramas is still very sufficient. Of course, the director should already know how to shoot this kind of film and television drama and know how to save costs. For example, after thousands of people have gone through the air, it should have been a scene in which an arrow feather hit the enemy with thousands of troops, but such a scene will burn special effects funds. Therefore, in this TV series, this picture is omitted directly, but the picture of the enemy general who has fallen to the ground with an arrow is taken.

We can say that the filming of "Nine Days of Phoenix" is a chicken thief, and we can also say that the director of this TV series knows how to save costs while taking care of some big scenes. Obviously, this TV series has not completely given up the big scenes, but it can omit many special effects scenes through the design of sub-shots. For the ordinary audience, this kind of production can also be satisfied. Of course, for fans who are used to watching special effects movies, watching "Nine Days of Phoenix" will feel that they cut corners.

The main plot of "Nine Days in a Phoenix" is that the heroine takes advantage of the men to enter the palace and then take revenge. Judging from the previous episodes that have been broadcast so far, the development of this main story is still relatively slow. In the previous episodes, the narrative level was too low, and the plot seemed a little confusing. If you haven't read the original novel, it still takes a lot of effort to watch this TV series and sort out the clues. This kind of effort is not because the audience is incompetent, but because the screenwriter's plot lines are not well combed.

The plot clues of Nine Days in a Phoenix are too chaotic, which is a common problem in a large number of TV dramas adapted by fantasy novel. Fantasy novel's narration and TV drama script narration are two different things in principle. Fantasy novel can ramble more and get into the main plot more slowly. In principle, for TV drama scripts, it is necessary to set up the hero and heroine in three or two bridges, and the core driving force of a big plot should be established in five to ten bridges. The plot of an episode should make the audience form conceptual cognition and plot expectation as much as possible for the main plot.

The original novel of Nine Days in a Phoenix has 665 chapters. Think about the number of words. Fantasy novel's common problem is to waste too many words in dialogue, but the story is extremely poor in promotion. The TV series "Nine Days of Phoenix" is marked with 7 episodes. With such a huge plot volume, there is really not enough drama script to support it. In TV dramas, it is emphasized that every bridge has contradictions and conflicts, which is the consciousness that fantasy novel's creators lack.

it's actually reasonable for the bad customs of "Nine Days in a Phoenix". In recent years, fantasy has been the same old routine of learning from each other. We can't expect the TV series "Nine Days of Phoenix" to produce several new tricks.
