Chapter 564: Mountains and Rivers Daily - Crazy output in the first half of the year, no connection
The plot of "Nu Qing Xiangxi" mainly revolves around this tomb of the Yuan Dynasty.
There are a total of 21 episodes, and almost 18 episodes have scenes in the tomb. All kinds of thrills make the audience excited.
However, excitement is excitement. From a plot perspective, this drama has a somewhat depressing ending.
Almost all of Chen Yulou's confidants were found dead in the tomb, and more than half of the Xieling disciples he brought with him were also dead.
His brother, warlord Luo Laowai, was betrayed by a traitor and killed.
Partridge Whistle's junior brother, Lao Yangren, was pierced through the chest by the Six-winged Centipede King and died in order to save Partridge Whistle.
Junior sister Hua Ling was accidentally killed by Chen Yulou, who was obsessed with corpse poison.
The popular Angry Chicken also died of exhaustion due to a deadly battle with the Six-winged Centipede King.
If it hadn't had a big battle with the Six-Winged Centipede King before it died, causing some damage to the Six-Winged Centipede King and spending a lot of energy, the protagonist group could finally destroy the Six-Winged Centipede King.
After killing the Yuan Tomb Corpse King and the villain warlord, the only remaining main characters were Chen Yulou, Partridge Whistle, and Red Girl.
Although the audience was almost numbed by the death of the supporting characters, seeing that the main trio was still there, and that Partridge Whistle and Red Girl finally expressed their feelings to each other and started giving out sweets, barely made up for some of the psychological trauma.
However, before they could be happy for too long, the final episode revealed the fate of the three of them.
In order to break the curse of Muchen Bead, Partridge Whistle found out the whereabouts of Blackwater City and prepared to visit the tomb.
Because Miss Hong broke her leg in the Yuan Tomb, she stayed there to recuperate and wait for Partridge Whistle to come back.
However, as fate would have it, a few months after Partridge Whistle left, a great plague broke out in the area. Unfortunately, Miss Hong was infected and died before Partridge Whistle returned.
A pair of lovers never met again.
Partridge Whistle also had a hard time. He was seriously injured in Blackwater City and half of his arm was broken. When he came back, he learned that Miss Hong had died of illness.
Before, after the death of his junior brother and sister, he was alone, with only Miss Hong as his spiritual sustenance. Now that Miss Hong is dead, he has become half disabled and his combat power has declined.
Under multiple blows, Partridge Whistle refused to risk his life in the grave anymore and went abroad, eventually dying in a foreign land.
While living abroad, Partridge Shao married an overseas Chinese and gave birth to a daughter, who then gave birth to a granddaughter, Shirley Yang, the star of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp".
The last protagonist, Chen Yulou, wanted to recover his losses in a big way because he suffered heavy losses in the Yuan Dynasty Tomb, so he took the Xiling disciples to Yun Province to dig up the tomb of King Xian.
As a result, Chen Yulou's defeat was even worse this time. Almost all of Chen Yulou's men were wiped out. He also had his eyes destroyed and retired from the world. Xiling was also disbanded.
Later, Chen Yulou concealed his name and changed his name to Chen Xiazi, and spent his remaining life doing fortune telling. When he met Hu Bayi and others, he gave some help to the protagonist group for the sake of his old friend's face.
It is worth mentioning that the Muchen Bead that Partridge Whistle has been pursuing all his life is located in the tomb of King Xian where Chen Yulou failed.
At first, Chen Yulou invited Partridge Whistle to explore the tomb of King Xian, but he declined. He successfully passed by Muchen Zhu, which was exactly what he said about fate tricking people.
If the two of them had teamed up to explore King Xian's tomb, maybe their lives would have been different.
Of course, it is also possible that the two people who were still alive died together in the Tomb of King Xian. After all, they are not the real protagonists of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp".
The worst case scenario is that Shirley Yang can be replaced by a grandpa...
But no matter what, the ending of the protagonists in the drama "Nu Qing Xiangxi" is definitely depressing.
He died, he was injured, all of them had a bad ending.
Audiences who have read the original work of "Ghost Blowing Out the Lamp" are still prepared, but new audiences will be immediately stunned by the knife.
The official scarf of the online Shanhe version of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" was collectively besieged by angry viewers, including Zuo Le and director Xue Jun.
Zuo Le felt very aggrieved. It was not like they deliberately tortured everyone in this ending. That was how the original work was written.
If "Nu Qing Xiangxi" was an original drama, it would be fine if they were scolded, but it is an adapted drama. If you are not satisfied with the plot, you have to go to the original author.
Zuo Le, who believes that every injustice must be punished and every debt must be credited, was very enthusiastic in pointing out the direction for netizens.
Watching the vast army of viewers heading towards the original author of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", Zuo Le was filled with joy and satisfaction after having done a good deed.
Singing in the sky: MMP
………
However, despite the criticism from the audience, the results of "Angry Sunny Xiangxi" are not bad at all.
Of course, it can't be compared with "Jingjue Ancient City". After all, it is a spin-off, the characters have changed too much, it lacks the support of IP popularity accumulation, and the overall plot is not particularly pleasing.
As early as when this drama was launched, Shanhe realized that this drama could not achieve the results of "The Ancient City".
When the broadcast of "Jingjue Ancient City" ended, it had 4 billion views, and Shanhe's hope for "Nu Qing Xiangxi" was 2.5 billion.
This result is considered very good, equivalent to the TV platform ratings exceeding 2, which can be regarded as one of the popular online dramas.
In the end, "Nu Qing Xiangxi" lived up to the hopes of its creators.
After going online, although the initial results were not very outstanding, as word of mouth fermented, the subsequent data has also grown well.
At the end of the finale, the number of views of "Nu Qing Xiangxi" approached 2.4 billion, which was not much different from the previous estimate.
Moreover, this data is only as of the broadcast period. There will be a certain amount of data growth in the future. It will take approximately 600 to 800 million more views to reach the saturation period.
As for the reputation of "Nu Qing Xiangxi", although the Douhua score of 8.2 is not as good as the 8.5 of "Jingjue Ancient City", it is still a high score among the many film and television adaptations of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp".
Shanhe's version of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" has two consecutive films with ratings above 8 points, with a cumulative broadcast volume of nearly 8 billion. It has completely established its brand in the hearts of the audience and has become the first hot IP project in the online drama circle.
We are currently filming, and we are preparing to release the third part of the "Ghost Blowing Lamp" series in the second half of the year, and the second season of the main series "Longling Labyrinth". The attention is soaring, and it can be said that it became popular before it was broadcast.
Shanhe's version of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" is so popular that it reminds people of the "Tomb Raiders" that was released with it.
When Shanhe announced that it was going to adapt "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", people immediately took advantage of the popularity and followed suit to develop a tomb-robbing film and television project.
Among them, the one with the greatest momentum was the Shijiang Group. At that time, it caused a certain stir on the Internet. It has been a long time since a film and television company dared to compete with Shanhe in such a arrogant way.
However, some big Vs also analyzed at the beginning that Shijiang Group just wanted to hype up and gain attention, and did not care about winning or losing at all.
However, the big V still underestimated Shijiang's imagination, and he had no intention of actually filming it.
I bought the copyright and held it in my hand, saying to turn it on, but didn't move at all. I just used "Tomb Raiders Notes" to create various hypes.
Today there is news that a certain little king Qin will play Wu Xie, and tomorrow there will be rumors that a popular young star will play Zhang Qiling, and later a rumored couple will be included in the cast.
The basic process is
First, "Tomb Raiders Notes" was used to make the project "Tomb Robbers Notes" a hit with a group of popular top stars and various "big" news.
After that, they will tie "Tomb Raiders Notes" with their own artists for marketing.
I wrote a lot of press releases, bought hot searches, and frantically refreshed the screen, which directly increased the reputation of those second- and third-tier Shijiang Group artists by several percent.
In this way, Shijiang Group has been busy for more than half a year. This "Tomb Raiders Notes" has been searched hundreds of times just for scarves, and the group's artists have followed suit.
However, in the end, the drama didn’t even have a director decided.
It wasn't until Shanhe's "Ghost Blowing the Lamp - Jingjue Ancient City" was launched and achieved great success that everyone remembered that the two dramas were announced at almost the same time.
The first season of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" over there has ended, but "Tomb Raiders" over here has not yet started filming.
This is not possible!
Don’t get me wrong, netizens don’t really want to watch this drama, they are mainly unhappy about being teased by the Shijiang Group, and they also want to watch the fun.
As a result, a large number of netizens collectively advocated on social media for Shijiang Group to hurry up and film "Tomb Raiders Notes".
In addition to netizens who want to watch the excitement, fans of the original book "Tomb Robbers Notes" have long been grudged against Shijiang Group for its previous shady operations, and took the opportunity to crazily export Shijiang Group.
In addition, there are fans of various celebrities in the Shijiang Group who have fallen through the cracks. They have watched their idols being used for hype every day, and they have endured it for a long time, and they have also added insult to injury.
With the combined efforts of many parties, the matter became more and more popular, and Shijiang couldn't stand it anymore. He was afraid of getting a bad reputation, so he hurriedly announced that it would start filming as soon as possible.
However, Shijiang is not a company that is good at film and television shooting. They are artist managers, and film and television production is their weak point.
They would like to find famous directors and outstanding stars to form a luxurious team to save the situation, but now that the matter is so big, as long as they are not stupid, they will not step into troubled waters at this time.
In desperation, Shijiang could only choose an ordinary director as the director, and the actors were all his own artists. The script was revised by several screenwriters according to the original work, and it was put into production in a hurry.
In this way, the results can be imagined.
The Shijiang version of "Tomb Robbers Notes" was a complete mess, and was called the worst version in history by fans of the original book.
Although this review reflects the anger of book fans and is not completely objective, the fact that it was called "the worst" also shows how much book fans hate this version of "Tomb Raiders".
The plot is messy, the special effects are cheap, and the leading actors have no temperament of the original characters.
Especially Wu Xie and Zhang Qiling, each one's acting skills are worse than the other, and they are also deliberately selling off.
Although the original work of "Tomb Raiders" has certain suspicions of selling corruption, a large number of film and television adaptations of "Tomb Raiders" will inevitably stir up speculation about "Bottle Evil CP".
But at least on the surface, Wu Xie and Zhang Qiling are just good brothers and comrades-in-arms, and they have no sexual thoughts or behaviors.
But Shijiang's version of "Tomb Raiders" is so awesome, it directly turned into a Danmei, blatantly selling corruption in the plot.
You look at me affectionately at every turn, and I look at you affectionately. In the front, Wu Xie gave Zhang Qiling a domineering wall-dong, and in the back, Zhang Qiling started a sadomasochistic pursuit of her husband.
In the play, two people are called you and me. If it weren't for the strict control of the General Administration, I guess the screenwriter could arrange for them to hug each other and kiss.
Male viewers felt their scalps numb and felt physically uncomfortable watching the show, while female viewers who liked to knock their heads off also felt tired and greasy, thinking it was all industrial saccharine.
In the end, he was stunned to reveal the author of the original work. Seeing that his book had been changed to look like this, he was so angry that he and Tojiang went to court.
It is said that the author of "Ghost Blows Out the Lamp" looked at him with all kinds of envy after scolding Shijiang at a certain author gathering.
Two mountains with the same theme of tomb robbing, why are their situations so different...
In fact, he is not the only one who is envious of the author of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", other authors are also secretly envious.
These days, the film and television adaptation of online articles and novels is a major trend, and many authors hope that their works can be adapted for the screen.
This not only reflects the value of the work, but also greatly improves the commercial value of the author.
If the film and television version of the work is successful, then the film and television rights of the author's next work will be very easy to sell, and the selling price will be very considerable.
Not many authors can resist this temptation.
However, converting text into film and television is not an easy task. Many excellent works have failed on the road to film and television, and very few have successfully landed.
It is precisely because of this that a company like Shanhe, which can produce high-quality drama adaptations, can be imagined how important it is to the author.
Many authors have publicly "confessed" to Shanhe, hoping that Shanhe will adapt their works, and some are even willing to sell film and television rights to Shanhe at a low price.
However, Shanhe doesn't have enough scripts in his own script library to finish filming, so he has no time to accept a large number of adapted dramas from outside.
When Shanhe originally produced "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", firstly, it wanted to use the influence of the "Ghost Blowing Lamp" IP to open and expand the online drama market. Secondly, it also wanted to prepare for a rainy day to prevent the Golden Finger scripts from running out in the future and arrange the escape route in advance.
But now that there is the series "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", Lao Gao is also actively creating mythological dramas.
The two back roads are going steadily and well. Zuo Le has seen the results and is not as worried about gains and losses as before. He is confident that he can lead Shanhe to deal with the situation without golden fingers.
In this case, Shanhe should give priority to filming its own ready-made scripts, and wait until these scripts are almost finished before taking on the adaptation.
At least in recent years, the author of "Ghost Blows Out the Lamp" has been singing in the sky and will be the envy and jealousy of the authors...
…………
After "Nu Qing Xiangxi" and "Wushuang" were aired and released in the summer, Shanhe had no new projects launched in a short period of time.
Less than half of "The Qin Empire - Fission" was shot.
"The Mystery of Longling" is still a few days away from being finalized.
Wang Qian's "The Best of Times" has just started filming.
Lao Gao's "Longmen Escort" is still in the final preparatory stage.
As for the several movies that Sunward has participated in, they will basically be released after the Lunar New Year festival.
Based on this calculation, in the remaining time of 2025, Shanhe will only have one film "Longling Mysterious Cave" left to be released.
Shanhe once again entered the daily mode of "crazy output in the first half of the year, and lack of success in the second half of the year".
The Guangdong Film and Television Company is so excited that I can’t wait to break my wallet for half a month.
When the mountains and rivers cease, the film and television industry will be at peace!
The mountains and rivers have subsided, and good times will come for everyone!
Of course, the film and television companies are happy, but the viewers who love dramas are depressed.
New viewers also go to watch movies and TV shows produced by other film and television companies to see if they can pick out the treasures.
The experienced old viewers, after remembering the approximate broadcast period of the second Shanhe drama, immediately changed their positions and wandered in the ocean of games, novels, and animations.
