How to evaluate the plot of Yan Xi Palace, a kung fu drama?

The Story of Yan Xi Palace is the most successful play of 20 18. People have different views on this. Some people think that it is refined, fresh and refreshing, while others think that its plot is unreasonable and its logic is loose, and it is completely a person dressed in ancient costumes. But in fact, a drama stands out, often because there are several particularly prominent labels. For The Story of Yan Xi Palace, the plot and logic are indeed a little bruised, but its advantages are also very obvious, mainly focusing on the freshness of the characters and the choice of actors.

Traditional themes and fresh people's designs give people a brand-new experience.

Compared with the themes explained by traditional court dramas, such as wishful court love, war and beauty, none of the women in the palace are innocent, and none of them are real winners. The theme and story conception of Yan Xi Palace have not changed. But its latest feature is that the heroine's personality has changed. The heroine is no longer the person who used to be cautious and has a deep insight into the world, but a bold character who rarely speaks harsh words. This role gives people a great sense of freshness and coolness. A drama is most afraid of not having a label, and "cool" is the biggest feature and label of this drama. Although classical literary works have always emphasized the expression of words, we have to admit that in today's extremely stressful life, a large number of people don't like the feeling of heavy depression, which has also spawned many cool dramas, but Raiders of Yan Xi is better than many cool dramas with small budgets on the Internet in this respect, that is, the cool combination of the heroine and others, which benefits from another advantage of the whole drama.

Newcomers use unfamiliar faces, classic characters use old actors, and traditional villains use popular actors. Maximize the matching degree between actors and roles.

Another major feature of the whole play is the proper choice of actors. The so-called suitability, first of all, is that the characters and actors are suitable, followed by good acting skills. I have to say that the film is excellent in arrangement and role assignment, so that the fresh heroine can be played by a new person, because this person's design mainly needs fearless and arbitrary, and does not need profound and heavy acting skills. Young and newborn calves have better temperament. The image of the "big pig's hoof" emperor, like a country, belongs to the more traditional role of martial arts drama. This requires an experienced actor, and Nie Yuan's choice is really commendable. As for the classic villain, Charmaine Sheh, an actor with good acting skills and everyone's love, is the most perfect villain.

And I think the best role in the whole drama is the queen played by Qin Lan, an exciting "Bai Yueguang" and an extreme tragic figure. This type rarely appeared in Gong Dou's previous plays. She comes from a noble family and is a typical lady, much like the traditional ancients, but she also yearns for true love and freedom, which is quite characteristic of modern women. She is gentle and kind, so she can always be lenient with others and give the greatest forgiveness to concubines and maids. However, she is extremely clever and incomparable, so she can see through the darkness of this world. The so-called wisdom will hurt. Such people often suffer from it and never come to a good end. She is a typical tragic figure.

The queen in the play is such a "Bai Yueguang". She looks beautiful. Although she is free and easy enough, there is one person in this world who can make her completely desperate, and that is the "big pig's hoof" emperor in the play. When she is completely desperate, she will self-destruct, and eventually, like all tragedies, the beauty will be shattered. Such figures can be said to be profound and classic, and Qin Lan's interpretation is even more excessive.

Full of cool feeling, exquisite service, classic characters and fresh characters, profound characters and relaxed characters, perfect cooperation, I think this is the biggest reason for the success of this play. But at the same time, the shortcomings of this drama can not be ignored. Without elaborate scripts and lines, it is impossible to become an N-brush classic of war and beauty and concubines in the palace, and several classic characters can't give full play to their talents. Therefore, it can't be called a classic of Gong Dou, but a successful drama.
