The original version of "Detective Dee Renjie" can be said to be excellent in terms of costumes, plot, scenes, action scenes and the acting skills of the actors (starring actors).
In particular, the starring acting and plot are the biggest highlights of this drama, and some plots and clips are even enough to make people gasp in admiration.
It may be controversial to say that it is the pinnacle of domestic suspense detective dramas, but as it ranks as a classic masterpiece, there are definitely not many people who object to it.
Zuo Le has watched several parts of the original version, so he was able to accurately grasp the characteristics of this drama. He explained it in the script and in discussions with Xue Jun.
Lao Xue is also a famous director after all. He has experienced the training of several TV series. Although his own ability is not as high as Kong's, it is not much different.
Didn't "Miracle Doctor Xilaile" almost cast Kong and Gao, if it weren't for the two dramas "Da Ranfang" and "Seven Swords 2".
Now the second director of Shanhe may be named Xue...
"Detective Di Renjie" is a subject that Xue Jun has never filmed before. If he were left to explore on his own, he might still go astray.
But now Zuo Le gave him some advice, which was equivalent to giving him the key points of the exam, and also sent him Qian Qiu, who had done similar questions, as an assistant.
It is a semi-open book exam, with two people doing the questions.
In this way, if Mr. Xue still finds the wrong path, then all these years will be in vain.
Of course Zuo Le also knew this, so he also raised the requirements for Xue Jun. On the basis of retaining the advantages of the original version, he also upgraded and optimized some of the flaws of the original version.
For example, many of the extras and some of the supporting characters in the original version have no acting skills at all, and are almost just line tools without emotion.
The same goes for the costumes and props. The leading actors are exquisite, and the extras are almost casually dressed in ancient costumes, with a piece of cloth or a hat on their head, and even the headgear is omitted.
There are also sets, palaces, government offices and other places that are okay. They should be regular film and television cities. Some of the exterior scenes such as inns, villages, and camps outside the city are much more shabby and crude. The Turkic Imperial City in the second part looks like a children's amusement park.
Similar.
The original version may have been limited by funds or shooting technology, but when Shan He came to shoot, he definitely couldn't mess with things anymore, and tried his best to make every detail as perfect as possible.
So after the filming of the TV series was completed, Xue Jun felt that the film and television base in Quancheng was not grand enough, so he took people to the Tang Palace in Qin Province, hired a group of extras, and re-filmed the exterior scenes of the palace.
That is to say, Zuo Le has a big heart. As long as you produce good quality, he won't worry much about the crew's financial problems, unless you spend it arbitrarily or exceed the budget too much.
If he were the boss of another film and television company, he would know that Xue Jun was going through such trouble for some location scenes, and he would eat him alive...
Of course, you get what you pay for, and once the money is given, the quality of the TV series will also improve.
At this time, Han Jun and his wife, who were watching TV at home, felt that "Detective Di Renjie" was not inferior to ordinary historical dramas in terms of persuasion and scenes.
You know, this is just a suspense detective drama in ancient costume...
………
"Husband, Wu Zetian is so powerful."
Liu Qingqing felt a little emotional when she saw Wu Zetian wearing a jade crown and a dragon robe, sullenly greeting the ministers.
Han Jun nodded in agreement. As the only female emperor in history, Wu Zetian has many film and television images, including some classics.
However, in Han Jun's view, none of those "Wu Zetian" characters have as much of an imperial air as the version of "Detective Di Renjie".
Perhaps it is also because Wu Zetian is a woman. Domestic film and television dramas generally emphasize the word "female" in the aura of Wu Zetian, the female emperor, and downplay the word "emperor" in the back.
This is also related to Wu Zetian's film and television image positioning. Her film and television images are roughly divided into two types, one is the protagonist and the other is the villain.
The protagonist follows a path of growth, rising from talent to emperor. Once he becomes emperor, he rarely pays attention to political affairs, but focuses on fighting for power with his children and "falling in love" with those male favorites.
The villain is all kinds of despicable and cruel, and can be called the ultimate scheming bitch.
In a few cases, Wu Zetian will also play a supporting role, playing the roles of mother, grandmother, lover, etc.
Ninety-nine percent of these characters cannot escape the fixed image of Wu Zetian. Some bad dramas even portray the only empress in the ages as a crying white lotus.
And this time in "Detective Detective Di Renjie", Gao Wa's appearance as Wu Zetian made Han Jun's eyes shine.
No longer a gorgeous headdress and palace attire, no bare breasts, and all kinds of charm, but like a man, with his hair tied up in a bun, wearing a dragon robe, his face majestic, full of heroic domineering.
This is the empress Wu Zhao who stole Li Tang's kingdom, dominated thousands of men as a woman, and had unparalleled power.
The previous ones were more like Wu Meiniang, who was competing for favor in the harem. They were too obsessed with women's methods, but ignored the superb political tactics of the empress.
Han Jun had no intention of discussing the merits and demerits of the female emperor. As far as he was concerned, the version of Wu Zezhen in "Detective Di Renjie" fit his image very well.
"The director made the right choice in choosing Teacher Gao Wa. It is difficult for ordinary actresses to capture this kind of heroic and domineering temperament. I remember that she has played Wu Zetian before, and it feels completely different from this version. She is worthy of being a Grand Slam Film
back."
Han Jun was full of praise for Gao Wa, but Liu Qingqing had no time to take a chance on him because Duan Long appeared on the stage.
…………
Hu Jinghui, played by Duan Long, is here to report the latest progress of the case.
First of all, the princess of Yiyang who had been sent to get married was killed, and 30 beauties disappeared.
At the same time, another important prisoner detained by the imperial court was also kidnapped. This person had a list of rebels against Wu Zetian. Wu Zetian sent people to torture and interrogate for a long time, but there was no progress. Now it seems that he was probably rescued by the Turkic mission.
.
Secondly, the secret report that discovered the destruction of the real mission showed that more than 160 people from the real Turkic mission and the Gannan Dao guards were all killed, and only Li Yuanfang, the leader of the escort team, escaped.
In the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty, all the more than 160 people in the envoy were quietly killed. Several ministers suspected that there might be a traitor in the envoy.
And the only living survivor, Li Yuanfang, is extremely suspicious.
Wu Zetian did not hesitate and ordered Li Yuanfang to be captured quickly to find out the truth behind the destruction of the mission.
At the same time, the destruction of the Turkic mission was of great importance, and a slight mistake would cause another war between the two countries. However, the case was too complicated, and the monarchs and ministers felt that they could not handle it.
Minister Zhang Jianzhi took the opportunity to speak and said that only one person could solve the case. Wu Zetian did not ask who it was, and pondered for a moment before making a decision immediately.
"The decree is issued to summon Di Renjie to Beijing."
At this moment, Di Renjie's character was established.
At this time, more than half of the first episode has passed, and Di Renjie, the male protagonist, has just appeared.
Six years ago, Di Renjie was demoted to Pengze County as the county magistrate by Wu Zetian because of his sympathy for the Li Tang clan.
After all, it is a suspenseful detective drama. In order to highlight Di Renjie's halo as a detective, Di Pangpang just showed up and tried his best to solve a wife murder case.
He started with "If I were you" and used a series of parallel sentences to point out the criminal's mistakes one by one. The criminal was so frightened that he bowed his head and confessed.
All the detectives praised together: Your Majesty is really a man of God. Since you came, we have not used our brains when handling the case.
Afterwards, Di Renjie received the imperial edict and immediately set off for the capital.
All the detectives: "..."
And here, Li Yuanfang, who also just appeared but soon became the scapegoat, is also in a dilemma.
The Turkic envoy was killed, and he escaped alone. Not to mention the serious suspicion of being a traitor, he could hardly escape the blame for the inability to protect the envoy.
Surrender yourself, the black pot is too big, I'm afraid you won't be able to get out if you get in.
So Li Yuanfang planned to find out the mastermind himself and make meritorious deeds.
At this time, a mysterious man found him and told Li Yuanfang that if he wanted to restore his innocence, only Di Renjie could help him.
Li Yuanfang wanted to catch this mysterious man, but found that he was surrounded by the corpses of the court officials who came to arrest him. Now, the yellow mud fell off his crotch - it was either shit or shit.
Helpless, Li Yuanfang could only rely on the location provided by the mysterious man and went to Di Renjie for help.
End of episode one.
………
"call……"
When the ending song ended, Han Jun and Liu Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief, only to realize that they had been deeply attracted by the TV series.
Han Jun, who considers himself a half-hearted drama critic, was surprised. He didn't think the plot just now was very exciting, but he couldn't help but read on.
Now that I think about it carefully, the rhythm of this drama is bright and orderly, and the plot is connected with each other.
The background is introduced at the beginning, then the mission case occurs, the case is briefly described, Di Renjie makes a small show, Li Yuanfang appears, and then several points are connected together, making people immersed in it unconsciously and looking forward to the next development.
Han Jun glanced at the screenwriter column. The first screenwriter was still Zuo Le. According to his understanding of Shanhe Drama, this script should have been completed with Zuo Le as the leader.
Han Jun thinks the style of this drama is a little different from Zuo Le's previous dramas, but this is not the first time Zuo Le has changed his style.
No matter how the style is changed, the most important thing is that the TV series is good-looking...
After watching the first episode, the two of them had almost eaten. Han Jun took the time to clear away the dishes and wash the dishes, and the second episode of "Detective Di Renjie" began immediately.
………
Li Yuanfang raced all the way to the red tent where Di Renjie stayed. Di Renjie, who was in the post house, was analyzing the facts of the case, one of the key points being Li Yuanfang.
Di Renjie felt that what happened to Li Yuanfang was very strange. Maybe he was not as simple a traitor as the court said.
At this time, Li Yuanfang also arrived. He was afraid that Di Renjie would not like him, so he pretended to be a trick to give Di Renjie a show of strength.
In the end, Di Renjie was not intimidated by him at all, but in a few words he identified him as the wanted Li Yuanfang.
"The waist is straight, the legs are slightly apart, and the hands are on the table. It is a typical sitting posture of a junior guard officer."
"The face is haggard and pale, but the cheeks are flushed. According to medical theory, the menstrual blood is weak and the deficiency fire is rising. This is caused by excessive blood loss. This can also be confirmed by the blood stains on your collar."
"You sneaked into my room through the window so late at night, you must not want others to know your whereabouts."
Wu Zetian and Di Renjie discussed it and announced that Di Renjie had gone to Taiyuan on behalf of the emperor to worship the ancestral temple to deceive the outside world, and then headed to Youzhou with Li Yuanfang and Hu Jinghui in a light carriage.
