Chapter 352 The most domineering, the wildest, the most horizontal
"Xiao Shiyi Lang" was in prime time at 20 o'clock on the fourth night of the first lunar month, and the premiere rating on Hongli Satellite TV was 1.03, ranking sixth in the same period.
Under normal circumstances, for a TV series that has just started, this is a pretty good, and even absolutely excellent, report card. Especially in the Spring Festival stalls of Qingyishui's blockbuster New Year's drama.
As long as it does not collapse and develops normally, the audience stickiness in the middle and late stages will come up, and it will not be a problem to rank among the top three and break 2 in ratings.
However, compared with the prestige of the "great man", compared with Jiang Zhipeng, Guo Rui, Fan Jia, and Li Jin, which can be called the most luxurious martial arts drama configuration in China, it can only be said to be decent.
Especially since the release of the theme song "Turn" & trailer, the show has not been broadcast first, as early as a month ago, on the famous domestic literary and artistic youth gathering platform "Quack", the expectation index has reached the full value of five stars. On the largest film and television professional rating website in China, "Golden Years", the number of people who "want to watch" has exceeded 100,000, almost reaching the level of a popular movie just a month before its release......
This situation has greatly raised the expectations of the industry, and it has also made Hongli Satellite TV, which cooperated with Deng Zheng and "The Great Hero" for the first time, full of ambition.
Therefore, for the current ratings, I generally feel that it is not ideal, and I am a little disappointed.
However, in view of the countless times that have been slapped in the face before, the martial arts dramas produced by "The Great Hero" have always been known for their full stamina, and they have started from 0.6 earlier and blatantly broke 3 and 4, and everyone did not dare to speak casually. Be cautious and stay on the sidelines.
Until the ratings of the 9th and 10th episodes were 1.45, ranking third in the same period, although it was fierce. However, the momentum of the surge is far less than any previous martial arts drama produced by "The Great Hero", and there is a big gap from the 3.1 of the conspiracy drama "Mountains and Rivers", which temporarily occupies the ratings champion. A media finally couldn't hold it back, as if it was afraid that the typed manuscript would be robbed by others. The headline on the front page came like this:
"The ratings of Jin Liang's new drama "Xiao Shiyi Lang" are weak! The broadcast quarter only reached 1.45!"
As soon as this news came out, the CEOs of many TV stations and film and television production and distribution companies sprayed a mouthful of old blood together, I bought a watch last year! Unscrupulous, unscrupulous, these media really don't want Bilian in order to win eyeballs!
When did Nima's ratings of 1.45 also be called weak?! What's more, the 40-episode TV series has only reached the 10th episode, and the ratings of the 10th episode are already 1.45, which is the third place in the same period. No, many of them may have never lifted at all, and they can go directly to the lake to jump on the rails and hit the tofu!
Circle you with a fork, and don't let people have a good New Year?!
And the title of this bunker was quickly discovered by netizens, and after being reprinted in major martial arts forums and sections, many people left cool comments below:
"Convinced, the craziest, most domineering and most horizontal ratings title in history!"
"Nima, it turns out that the ultimate brainless black is really a high-end fan!"
The bosses of the other companies yelled in unison: Give me back the film. I'm not playing anymore, I'm going home!"
"You stinky face of the great man! Jin Liang, you are crazy! Hey, you are zero, I want to call the police! Someone is playing hooligan!!
"Wuli Jin Liangchen has a hundred ways to shoot awesome martial arts dramas. Shoot a fire film, and you are helpless!"
"The great man is invincible!Long live Jin Hao!"
"Upstairs hero, dare to ask what Jin Hao is?"
"Without it. 'Kim Il Thien' is also!"
However, in Deng Zheng's own opinion. With a TV series like "Xiao Shiyi Lang", which has quality and depth, which is enough to represent the highest production level of the current "Great Hero", it will be broadcast to the 10th episode. Just getting this rating, it's really a bit "weak"!
There are many reasons, for example, he feels that it is slightly deeply entangled, and it is not suitable to compete with the "family carnival" full of screens during the Spring Festival, but Hongli Satellite TV insists; for example, "Mountains and Rivers" is indeed a rare high-quality drama in recent years, and "Xiao" is not broadcast early, and it is not easy to compete...... But he thinks there may be another important reason, that is, he persuaded Jiang Zhipeng to try to use new lens language and narrative methods in the first few episodes, and he was not in a hurry to use Xiao Shiyilang's main perspective to quickly advance the story, and the audience needs to adapt to a certain extent.
The novel "Xiao Shiyi Lang" is a story based on the beauty of Feng Siniang taking a bath, first fighting for the deer cutting knife, then Xiao Shiyi Lang met Shen Bijun and understood each other, then Xiao Shiyi Lang and Shen Bijun shared hardships, and finally the lost Doll Villa, and it came to the end of "This love can be recalled" and "The sunset is infinitely good".
Interestingly, most of the novel is written from a woman's perspective and clues.
In fact, many of Gu Long's novels are like this, often not from the perspective of the protagonist. Because what he wants to show is a special image, a special spirit, and that kind of feelings that cannot be known to outsiders. And the protagonists in his books are usually lonely, with a kind of loneliness that seems to be born with them. Therefore, he can only use the perspective of others to make the image of his protagonist appear in an atmosphere.
So in the novel, Xiao Shiyi Lang did not come here humming his song, but appeared here with his song.
In the original novel, the characters who assume the "perspective of others" are Feng Siniang and Shen Bijun. These two women also support the structure of this story at the same time.
In the part of "Competing for the Deer Cutting Knife", it is all based on Feng Siniang, and Xiao Shiyilang's appearance is also seen through Feng Siniang's eyes.
After the "Deer Cutting Knife Incident" changed, Xiao Shiyi Lang left Feng Siniang, and the clues were temporarily transferred to him. For the first time, Gu Long Daxia described Xiao Shiyi Lang positively, writing about his depression and loneliness, and revealing a kind of view of life.
After that, Xiao Shiyi Lang met Shen Bijun. Shen Bijun was attracted by Xiao Shiyi Lang and misunderstood him again and again. This stage is seen from Shen Bijun's eyes.
In the back, this clue is not on anyone, but has been completely swayed, where to write, it comes naturally, without being abrupt at all. Because at this stage, no matter how the perspective changes, the tone of the novel has been set. The whole novel has been infected by Xiao Shiyilang's desolation and depression, whether it is Feng Siniang who dares to love and hate, or Shen Bijun, a lady from a rich and noble family, or even Lian Chengbi, they can only bring a little loneliness......
Of course, the concrete TV series and literary novels are very different, and it is impossible to introduce too many irrelevant narrations, making the plot fragmented, bloated and slow, just like documentaries, but Deng Zheng and Jiang Zhipeng still tried to use a lot of side accents while advancing the main line, to render and three-dimensional the role of Xiao Shiyilang as much as possible, and try to lay down and solidify the style of the whole drama from the beginning.
Deng Zheng's suggestion was strongly opposed by Jiang Zhipeng at first, and even the two of them blushed, but Deng Zheng still persuaded him to try, but patting the old Comrade Jiang was completely fascinated and almost couldn't take it back......
At present, it seems that ordinary audiences, at least ordinary TV viewers, still need an adaptation period.
Because compared with the TV ratings, which are not amazing, the number of online broadcasts and the topic index are explosive, with the number of broadcasts exceeding 80 million in a single day, ranking first, and the second place "Mountains and Rivers" is only 55 million; the artist new media index (TV drama actors) TOP20, Guo Rui, Li Jin, Fan Jia, and Jing Chao (Lianchengbi) occupy the top 4; the rating of the "Golden Years" website is as high as 9.0!
And compared with the critics who prefer his novels over martial arts dramas, they are almost unanimously praised:
“…… There is no doubt that this is a martial arts drama that has never been seen before. But in all martial arts works, there must be plot conflicts, and this conflict is often a struggle between justice and evil, a contest between the advanced and the backward. But what is good and what is evil? Naturally, there should be a criterion for judging. In "Xiao Shiyi Lang", Li Gang and his ilk are called righteous gentlemen by the vast majority of people in the rivers and lakes, and Xiao Shiyi Lang is a robber who everyone can get and be punished, except for a few people such as Feng Siniang, 'I'm afraid I don't even have a friend'. This seems to confirm the saying: 'The truth is often in the hands of a few.' It's certainly not nonsense, and it's not crazy. Clear-sighted people are often seen as insane, and those who insist on the truth are often burned at the stake. Because their gaze is either too far ahead of their time, or they see things that they shouldn't be looking at. But other people don't see it, or for some reason they don't want to admit it, so the fate of the 'other' can be imagined. When there is only one normal person left in the world, the only way for him to survive is to become crazy too. Xiao Shiyi Lang is a sober and arrogant traitor, he knows what he is doing, he knows how to compromise, but he is unwilling. He would rather pursue the light with vigor like a moth to a fire than beg for rotting immortality in the darkness. So, all that awaited him was to fight, flee, fight, and flee. Fighting against a powerful enemy is also a battle against the loneliness of the heart, escaping from the pursuit of the enemy, and also escaping from the unattainable ideals and aspirations hidden deep in the heart......"
“…… Only one year after Jin Liang put forward the definition of martial arts that makes people excited and out of control, Jin Liang made use of the TV series "Xiao Shiyi Lang" to carry out a new level of discussion, and faintly wanted to give the chivalrous spirit a humane! I was shocked and very happy! In fact, the value of human life, the pursuit of freedom, equality, and fraternity, and the concern for the intrinsic quality of human nature have always been the weaknesses of our traditional Chinese works, because Chinese tradition does not attach importance to the development of human personality. Although it is said that "Xiao Shiyi Lang" is not half of the broadcast, it is too early to say, Jin Liang may not be the best to do, but he is at least the one who dares to try! If it is formed, it will be a fusion of the traditional Chinese chivalry of 'the big husband does something and does not do' and the Western chivalry to create a highly personalized chivalry, it is not too much to say that he has given martial arts a new connotation! Come on, let's shake our spirits together and wait and see!" (To be continued......
