Chapter 111 Ximen Blowing Snow and Dongmen Blowing Charcoal
The popularity of "Seven Swords" has benefited many people a lot.
But it also makes some people feel uncomfortable.
The first one is the screenwriter Pang Yidian, who knows the big V who made such nonsense in the bib before.
At that time, Pang Yidian claimed that Zuo Le, a person who makes sitcoms, didn't understand martial arts movies at all, so "Seven Swords" would be a hit, otherwise he would live broadcast eating food. This incident even became a hot topic at the time, and many people remember it.
After "Seven Swords" was aired, its performance continued to rise, and its reputation was also recognized by the audience and the media.
Now Pang Yi's palace is in trouble...
Many melon eaters who were not too concerned about the excitement expressed their great concern for Pang Yidian's vow to imitate Lao Ba, and were willing to provide him with props, and the taste and appearance were of Pang Yidian's own choice.
Pang Yidian was on the bib and Zhihu every day, and someone @ reminded him to eat. He had no choice but to delete the bib, and then he was ridiculed even more.
Some netizens who know how to play even specially compiled a classic Kong Yiji joke for him.
[As soon as Pang Yi put on the scarf, all the netizens looked at him and laughed, and some shouted, "Pang Yi, I heard that you have eaten several bowls of Xiang again?"
Pang Yidian didn't answer, but said to the fans, "Find me some more dramas that will be aired soon." Then he made a bet with nine scarves.
Netizens deliberately shouted loudly, "You must want to lose to Chixiang again." Pang Yidian opened his eyes and said, "Why do you accuse someone of innocence out of thin air..."
"What innocence? I saw with my own eyes the day before yesterday that I had eaten the Xiang at your house, and I must have been greedy again." Pang Yidian blushed, and the veins on his forehead popped out, and argued, "If you lose the bet, you should eat Xiang."
You deserve it... how can you call it greedy when it comes to gourmets?"
There were words that were difficult to understand one after another, such as "Lao Ba's secret recipe" and "Give me Oli and you'll be done with it", etc., which caused everyone to burst into laughter, and the inside and outside of the scarf was filled with a happy atmosphere.]
Pang Yidian, who had a not very positive image before, officially became a clown after this incident. He hung up his neck and announced that he would temporarily withdraw from the Internet to avoid the limelight.
…………
If Pang Yidian can't stand the ridicule, he can choose to quit the Internet to avoid the limelight temporarily, but Luo Qian, whose new drama is about to be launched, cannot run away.
To this day, Luo Qian still doesn't know whether his original idea of bundling "Seven Swords" together for marketing hype was a good one.
You might say it's not right, "Seven Swords" is so popular now, and "Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Man Lou" has also received a lot of attention. It can be said that it became a hit before it was broadcast.
But to be fair, the quality and performance of "Seven Swords" are on display. Luo Qian's family knows his own affairs, but he has no confidence that "Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Man Lou" can beat "Seven Swords", and there is even a chance that it will fail miserably.
At that time, his face was completely humiliated...
Amid Luo Qian's entanglement, time came to October 1, when "Lu Xiaofeng and Flowers Mansion" premiered on Xiangnan Channel during prime time, competing with "Seven Swords".
After all, they have been together for so long and have been hyped together. Zuo Le is also very curious about "Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Man Lou", so he voluntarily abandoned "Seven Swords" on the night of the 1st and came to Hunan Channel to contribute to the ratings.
After two episodes, Zuo Le relaxed.
Frankly speaking, the plot of "Lu Xiaofeng and Huamanlou" is pretty good, at least the first two episodes are above standard.
After all, he has a foundation in the original work, and Luo Qian is also a relatively capable screenwriter. Although there are a few magical changes, it is still tolerable.
The acting skills of the actors are also acceptable. Zhong Ting, the little king of Xiangjiang, is also considered to be one of the most talented actors among the younger generation in Xiangjiang. Although Lu Xiaofeng is portrayed as a bit greasy, his performance is still good.
The popular idol Su Hao plays Hua Man Lou. Although he doesn’t have much acting skills, he is good-looking. When dressed in ancient costume, he looks like a handsome young man, which is quite eye-catching.
The heroine hasn't appeared yet, so it's not clear yet, but what makes Zuo Le complain a bit is why Ximen Chuixue has a public face, and is still dressed in black, without the aura of a sword god at all.
This is not Ximen Chuixue, it is simply Dongmen Chuutan...
But generally speaking, except for the failure of Ximen Chuixue, the actors in "Lu Xiaofeng and Flower Manlou" are pretty good.
In addition, what made Zuo Le's eyes shine was that in the drama "Lu Xiaofeng and the House of Flowers", it can be seen that the crew put a lot of thought into it and added a lot of points to the TV series.
The soundtrack is also great and connects smoothly with the plot.
The above are the advantages of "Lu Xiaofeng and the House of Flowers", and then let's talk about the shortcomings. Minor flaws aside, the two most fatal ones are the special effects and the fighting scenes.
Zuo Le didn't know whether Luo Qian was reluctant to invest money or something else. The special effects of "Lu Xiaofeng and the House of Flowers" were extremely poor, only slightly better than the special effects of 50 cents, which was only about 80 cents.
Frankly speaking, if it were normal, the special effects in "Lu Xiaofeng and the House of Flowers" would be criticized at most by people. Everyone is generally used to the shockingly bad special effects in domestic dramas.
But the bad thing is that "Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Man Lou" had a bad fate, and now they encountered "Seven Swords".
Zuo Le spent hundreds of millions on the special effects of "Seven Swords". The quality is not inferior to those special effects blockbusters, and it is half a world ahead of "Lu Xiaofeng and the House of Flowers."
It can be predicted that in terms of special effects, "Lu Xiaofeng and Flowers" will definitely be compared with "Seven Swords" and then be criticized wildly.
Let's talk about the fighting scenes. In fact, Luo Qian should have put in some effort and hired a special action director. Although the fighting scenes are not designed to be outstanding, they are still much better than many martial arts dramas.
But the bad thing is that the scenes designed by Luo Qianqing's action director are completely wrong with the description of Gu Long's fight in the original work.
The fights in Gu Long's original novel rarely contain specific descriptions of fights, and are played in a stream-of-consciousness manner. For example, there are two paragraphs about Ximen Chuixue's sword.
No one can describe the sharpness and speed of that sword, no one can imagine it, and no one can dodge it.
If there really are immortals, Buddhas, ghosts and gods in heaven and earth, they will definitely be eclipsed by this sword.
The sword flashed and blood splashed out!
No one could parry or dodge the sword, not even Lu Xiaofeng, but he did not die.
It's a miracle that he survived.
In the sky and on earth, the only one who can escape from the sharp edge of that sword is probably Lu Xiaofeng!
The charm of Ximen Chuixue does not lie in his lightning-quick drawing of the sword, but in the string of blood falling from the blade when he retracts the sword;
What Ximen Chuixue blows is not snow, but blood... Those who always want to catch up with him will never reach his level;
Because when they blew the blood off their swords, they only felt the joy and excitement of victory.
But Ximen Chuixue, what flashed in his eyes was indescribable helplessness and sadness. He had long been hidden in this world.
He is not a person who despises life, and there are too few people in the world who are truly worthy of him drawing his sword.
Look, there's so much character, a peerless swordsman who only loves the sword jumps out of the paper.
Such a swordsman, if you ask him to hold the sword and slash at the enemy for 300 rounds, he will not even use the sword, but use his fists and palms to fight against the internal force.
What a loss!!!
And coincidentally... "Lu Xiaofeng and Flower Manlou" does just that.
…………
The next day, the ratings for the premiere of "Lu Xiaofeng and the House of Flowers" were released.
0.79%!
It seems to be pretty good, but the reputation is terrible, with a Douhua score of 6.2, and all kinds of sarcastic comments. Among them, the number one person said this.
[I thought it was two tigers fighting, but I didn't expect one of them was a pig pretending to be a pig. No, you shouldn't compare "Seven Swords" with this drama.
I even think that the two dramas were quarreling with each other, which can be regarded as the "black history" of "Seven Swords"]
