Chapter 640 Will Yu Xiaoshu go abroad?
The huge success of the TV series "Police Honor" can be said to have given confidence to many people in the industry.
After all, no matter what, before this, everyone's perception of police dramas has always been mainly criminal investigation themes. More importantly, many people in the industry feel that there is nothing to film about trivial matters.
Think about it, this is not just true for the police theme, but for many other themes as well.
Many people are almost forgetting how to photograph poor people.
They filmed films with exquisite male and female protagonists, which was something Yu Xiaoshu had always strongly opposed.
In Yu Xiaoshu's opinion, if you don't film the poor in a drama, but only film the so-called male and female protagonists who are high and mighty, then this drama is floating from the beginning.
This is extremely inappropriate for a drama like this.
It is precisely because of this that Yu Xiaoshu has been asking Baiqian Media to figure out how to be itself.
At the celebration banquet, the male and female protagonists of the three dramas all came, but when everyone toasted Yu Xiaoshu, they were basically quite polite and just clinked glasses.
Or let’s put it this way.
Yu Xiaoshu has reached such a position now that no one would force him to drink.
But he didn't stay long at the celebration party and left.
For Yu Xiaoshu, he still has a lot of things to do.
Baiqian TV has now opened a gap, but this is not enough. The drama that replaced "Police Honor" has already started airing, but it is obvious that not every drama is a so-called phenomenon.
Of course, Yu Xiaoshu actually has a trump card in his hand.
But since it is a trump card, we definitely cannot throw it out now.
If we throw it out like this now, the effect won’t be good enough.
For this reason, Yu Xiaoshu decided to wait a little longer.
Now, the IP of "Journey to the West" has been gradually completed. Whether in terms of publicity or other aspects, Yu Xiaoshu believes that everything that needs to be done has been done.
Secondly, there is the IP of "Journey to the East", which can be regarded as a supplement.
Originally, everyone felt that it was about the same in recent times.
But what they didn't expect was that 'Second in the World' also published both 'Journey to the South' and 'Journey to the North'.
"Damn it, I never thought that the second best person in the world could actually write east, west, south, and north?"
"Yeah, I didn't expect that either. I always thought it was just a joke, but I never thought he would actually write it."
"This is very interesting. This is the culmination of the system of novels about gods and demons."
"Yes, I think this is the perfect system of novels about gods and demons."
…
Obviously, for readers who like fantasy novels, they really did not expect that "The Second in the World" would bring together the east, west, south, and north.
This "Journey to the South" mainly tells the story of the boy Miaojixiang who was beside the Buddha. He was demoted for disobeying the Buddha by killing the King of Fire Demons. The Buddha gave him the five supernatural powers and the divine eye, and he was reincarnated as the son of the Goddess Maler, named Three-Eyed Lingguang.
When he grew up, the three-eyed Lingguang traveled to Lingxu, but was trapped to death in the Faquzhu by the Emperor Ziwei for stealing the golden spear. He was reincarnated in the family of Yanxuan Tianwang and was called the three-eyed Lingyao. He studied under Miaole Tianzun, but stole his golden sword and refined it into gold bricks as a magic weapon.
Then he caused a disturbance at the Qionghua Party in the Heavenly Palace, called himself Huaguang, and fled from the Heavenly Palace.
Xuantian God used the water of Renchen in the north to subdue him. Fearing that the Jade Emperor would blame him, Huaguang went to the human world and was reborn in Xiaojiazhuang, still named Huaguang. He had great magical powers and fought against gods and demons many times and made great contributions, so the Jade Emperor pardoned his previous sins.
…
It can be said that this "Journey to the South" mainly tells the story of Hua Guang.
Hua Guang is a heroic character carefully created by the author. He is born with a strong character, unruly and unrestrained.
Soon after he was reborn, he was able to avenge his father, but the first time his personality traits were revealed was when he rashly broke into the Lingxu back hall of Ziwei Emperor and stole the golden spear.
This childish restlessness and mischief showed his contempt for the rules of power and etiquette. His rebellious nature was already showing.
Then, at the Qionghua Festival, he was not used to the ugly behavior of the Golden Spear Prince inserting flowers and drinking wine by himself. He was not afraid of the prince's hot power. After scolding him, he became angry and whipped the Golden Spear Prince, which shocked the Heavenly Palace. After escaping from the Heavenly Palace, he galloped around in the Middle World and was invincible, so that the Jade Emperor could do nothing about him and pardoned him twice. However, Hua Guang did not give up his own code of conduct and restrain his personality. In order to save his mother, he made a big fuss in Dongyue, broke into the underworld, and went to Fengdu three times, which also caused a stir in the lower world. So far, his rebellious spirit of not fearing power and breaking through all obstacles has been fully developed and reflected.
This can also be regarded as a kind of sustenance of the author.
Of course, other people have commented that the book "Journey to the South" was greatly influenced by "Journey to the West". Hua Guang's image can be described as a hodgepodge of many folk legends, such as daring to rebel against the heaven and even the Buddha, and going to hell to find his mother, etc., which is a combination of Sun Wukong and Mulian. As for his great magical powers, it is the integration of many immortals. In addition to the general means of immortals, Hua Guang is good at two things: one is the triangular gold brick, just like Sun Wukong's golden hoop; the other is good at transformation, but unlike Sun Dasheng, he is constantly reincarnated to change himself.
That’s exactly what happened. Basically, when the book “Journey to the South” was published, everyone thought, “Isn’t this just me learning from myself?”
"Could it be that 'Second Under Heaven' has almost run out of ideas? Otherwise, why would this novel be so much like 'Journey to the West'?"
"Yes, I think many of the plots in this novel are similar to Journey to the West."
"I said they are all written by the same author, so isn't it normal for them to have similarities?"
"That's true, but no matter from which aspect, I think this is also a qualified novel about gods and demons."
…
At this point, after "Journey to the South" was launched first, it took about half a month, when the sales and discussion were almost the same, and then "Journey to the North" was officially launched.
However, this novel also leaves some foreshadowing.
Although people have mixed reviews about "Journey to the North", this mythological novel is recognized by many people anyway.
In this way, "The Four Travels" became the second most representative work in the world.
In Yu Xiaoshu's opinion, now that "The Four Journeys" has been released, it is basically time to start casting for "Journey to the West".
For this casting, Yu Xiaoshu is going to go all out. He not only wants to choose the right characters, on the contrary, his most important goal is to achieve publicity.
Yu Xiaoshu is planning to release "Journey to the West" and "A Chinese Odyssey" simultaneously, one on TV and the other in theaters.
In addition to these two, Baiqian TV is currently airing another hit TV series in half a month.
"Detective Di Renjie".
This drama is a typical big hit, and it is a classic that you enjoy more and more the more you watch it. The first part is a classic among classics, but perhaps people don’t like the later parts so much because the routines are repeated.
But in the first part, the suspense was really full.
This first part mainly includes three short stories: "The Shock of the Mission", "The Blue Shirt" and "The Bleeding Eagle".
In the first year of Tianshou reign of Wu Zetian of Zhou Dynasty, the war against Turks which lasted for more than ten years ended, and the whole country was at peace and the whole court celebrated. When the Turkic envoys arrived, they presented a priceless pearl to show their sincerity.
Wu Zetian married Li Qingxia, the daughter of Li Yong, the Prince of Changle, to Jili Khan to show her intention of permanent marriage. During the stay of the delegation, several major cases that shocked the whole country broke out in the capital.
First, the earthen kiln where the court's criminals were held suddenly caught fire, and the prisoner Liu Jin disappeared. Liu Jin held an important list related to national security in his hand. Once this list fell into the hands of the rebels, the country would be in chaos.
Then, the princess who accompanied the envoys to the marriage, her beauties, attendants and guards were suddenly assassinated, and the envoys who negotiated peace took advantage of the chaos to leave the city and disappeared. Then, an urgent document was delivered from Gannan Road, saying that the Turkic envoys who came to negotiate peace were all killed in the Gobi Desert as soon as they entered the country, and only the captain of the guard team that welcomed the envoys, Li Yuanfang, was missing.
…
Yes.
In the first part, Yuan Fang was not yet there. What do you think?
For many viewers, when the first and second episodes of "Detective Di Renjie" were aired, everyone was already immersed in it.
A large group of bandits actually pretended to be an envoy and sneaked into Chang'an in front of the eyes of the court and the public, and even attended the court to discuss matters. This was too shocking. With the bandits being so arrogant, how could the court be safe? Besides, the real envoy, a group of 146 people, and a guard of 120 people, were all killed on the road. Could ordinary bandits and horse thieves have such ability?
Many people were surprised when they watched the first episode.
Or I want to see how the story develops.
Then, naturally, comes the second episode that follows.
Di Gong was trying a minor civil case at the Pengze Yamen. Without much trouble, Di Gong brought the criminal who forged the murder scene to justice. After receiving an urgent document from the court, Di Gong did not dare to neglect and set off immediately. Late at night, Di Gong, who was on his way, stayed at the Jiangzhangguan Inn. Although he was tired from the journey, Di Gong was thinking about the big case in the capital and couldn't fall asleep. He repeatedly pondered every situation mentioned in the document, and felt the importance of the case and the severity of the situation. Suddenly, the lights in the room went out inexplicably. Di Gong opened the window vigilantly, but everything inside and outside the house was normal, as if nothing had happened. However, when he turned on the light again, something surprising happened—a young man in a black robe sat at the table and looked at him quietly.
The young man spoke. He teased Di Gong, saying that he had heard that he was a master at solving cases, and today he wanted to see him. Di Gong said that fame and fortune were nothing to him, but since the other party came late at night, he must have something important to discuss, so he might as well give it a try. He deduced from the other party's clothes, dusty face, time of arrival, and background that the visitor was none other than the wanted fugitive of the court, the captain of the envoy's guard, and the Gannan guerrilla general Li Yuanfang. This speech made the other party dumbfounded, because he was this person.
Li Yuanfang told Di Gong in detail how the envoys were killed. After telling the story, he handed Di Gong a silk handkerchief used by a bandit leader, with a "viper" logo embroidered on one corner. After listening to his story, Di Gong felt that there was a connection between these cases, but it was not very clear at the moment. When asked how he knew that the court had transferred him to solve the case, Li Yuanfang said that someone had left a knife in a letter to him ten days ago. Di Gong immediately realized that danger was imminent.
Sure enough, there was a noise outside the door, and then the Qianniu Guard came to announce the order, ordering Di Gong to set off immediately. Di Gong packed up and got on the sedan chair to hurry on. Unexpectedly, before the sedan chair left the city, it was ambushed. The bandits surrounded the sedan chair and attacked with swords, determined to capture it. However, Di Gong did not die, but Li Yuanfang tore the sedan chair apart and flew out, killing people. In an instant, all the bandits were killed, and no one survived.
…
It is obvious that Di Renjie in this episode has already predicted everything.
If he had not escaped, then, as he had judged, the enemy had set up ambushes everywhere in the city, and not only would they kill him, but Li Yuanfang would probably also be doomed this time.
And once they succeed, a sensational story will emerge: Li Yuanfang led the gangsters to forge an imperial edict to kill the minister in charge of the case, Di Renjie, who later died due to internal strife or an attack by his enemies.
As a result, the number one wanted criminal in the murder of the Turkic envoys died together with the minister in charge of the case. There were no more witnesses or physical evidence to investigate, and the case became an unsolved case. Even if others wanted to investigate it, they had no idea where to start.
As the two were talking, they heard the sound of footsteps approaching from afar. It was too late to run. The group of people who came were reinforcements for the bandits, but they only saw the bodies of their accomplices and found nothing else.
Di Renjie and Li Yuanfang escaped this dangerous disaster by pretending to be dead among the corpses. Due to safety considerations and the complexity of the case, Di Renjie decided to escape from the official road and go to Beijing incognito.
…
The first two episodes can be said to have created a huge amount of suspense.
This "Detective Di Renjie" naturally did not disappoint the audience, nor did it disappoint Yu Xiaoshu.
A blockbuster work will bring about huge subsequent impact.
Basically, it can be said that because of the drama "Detective Di Renjie", the ratings of Baiqian TV have improved again, and the ratings are rising steadily.
First there was Justice Bao, then there was Di Renjie.
Everyone thinks that each of them can be called a genius at solving cases.
So many people are thinking about what Yu Xiaoshu is going to do next? ?
In other words, does Yu Xiaoshu still want to continue filming this kind of drama? ?
He had already reached the top before, so did Yu Xiaoshu have no intention of going abroad to try his luck? ?
Many people are speculating.
Even the industry is saying it.
After all, Yu Xiaoshu has already reached the top in the country, and he has no rivals in the country.
Will he go abroad?
But some people think that many Chinese people have failed when going abroad, and Yu Xiaoshu is no exception.
