Does "Kyushu, Pasturing Clouds on the Sea" look like an oriental magic drama?

With the aura of the first fantasy IP in China, the road of film and television development of Kyushu series has hit a wall many times, such as the city of love introduced by Hua Xu and the sky city of Kyushu, and finally approached the online "Kyushu Sea Pasturing Cloud" to save some situations. From winning Hunan Satellite TV, to being "retired" to live webcasting, Guan Wei released a good news of 8.3 points only four hours after the twists and turns of "Kyushu Sea Pasturing Cloud" went online. From technology, pictures to actors, it is regarded by many viewers as the progress of domestic magic dramas.

In 2006, where's novel "Kyushu, Pasturing Clouds on the Sea" was officially published, and the TV series of the same name was launched on 20 15. It invested more than 300 million yuan, took two years from preparation to shooting, and took nearly nine months to shoot, and gathered a group of powerful schools such as Huang Xuan, Shawn Dou, Zhou Yiwei, Wang Qianyuan, Angel and Wan Qian. This big IP and big production has attracted much attention since the day of preparation. However, the broadcast of the play was full of twists and turns. From the success of Hunan Satellite TV in the first battle to the postponement, cancellation and live webcast, rumors about the slow pace and serious water injection of the show are even more rampant. Director Cao Dun explained before the broadcast that "the film was withdrawn" because the post-production greatly exceeded the expected time. "We estimate that the post-production may need to be completed around March this year, but it was not completed until June and failed to catch up with Hunan Satellite TV."

However, after the show was launched, the painting style was greatly reversed, and both the broadcast volume and word-of-mouth were harvested. From the very beginning, the novel Kyushu: Pasturing Clouds on the Sea tries to create an epic style: it is shot with a wide-angle lens from near to far, with vast real scenes such as deserts, grasslands, snow-capped mountains and lakes. There is a strong contrast with the smallness of the characters; Myths and legends, tribal fate and other themes appeared, supplemented by magnificent music, and I have seen enough green screen shooting of similar themes. The image level of Kyushu Haimu Cloud is obviously higher. The sidewalk is also quite elegant. Whether it is the clothing differences between tribes or the royal rules and appearance led by Queen Nanku, the barrage of video websites has received rave reviews. In terms of performance, from young actors to young talents, from literary dramas to martial arts dramas, acting skills are also online.

However, while enjoying the scenery blockbuster, the audience also found that the narrative rhythm was lengthened. For example, in the first episode, the "fortune teller" who fled to Feng Shuo Department was just a "wedge" to describe the change, but it took a whole episode. The most maddening thing for the audience is that despite the all-star cast, Huang Xuan and other leading actors didn't appear until after the eighth episode, and the video website also released 12 episode on the first day, alleviating the problem of "no leading role in the eighth episode". The original work has a huge structure, which requires the director's control ability to be very high. If you are not careful, it will easily be lengthy and delayed.

The scenery is picturesque and the plot is as slow as lightning. Although Kyushu: The Story of Pasturing Clouds on the Sea is facing a lot of narrative difficulties, the current Douban score of 8.3 points still reflects the audience's support and optimism for the domestic magic drama. "There is no need to make a fuss about Mager and Game of Thrones. This time, China also has epic film and television works. " Some netizens commented that "the oriental magic routine of the shemale opposition was replaced by the completely overhead Kyushu world; The visual style imitating the ancient Greek myth system has also been replaced by the Chinese style full of classical culture and national characteristics. " The raw powder can't bear to criticize. "It is a great enjoyment to see the magnificent Kyushu world in the novel presented on the screen, and high scores can also inspire subsequent creators to show real sincerity."

The audience has such high expectations for "Kyushu Hai Mu Yun", or because it is backed by the huge background of "Kyushu" IP. Since 200 1, Kyushu, created by seven online literature writers headed by Jiangnan and Jin Zhen, has become the largest and most comprehensive fantasy IP group in China, with reasonable and rigorous historical, cultural, geographical and biological settings. It is different from the traditional anecdotes such as the Painted Skin, The Legend of the White Snake and Ghost Stories, and it is also different from The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit in the west, with its unique style. "Kyushu, grazing clouds on the sea" is one of the best.

However, Kyushu IP's road to game film and television expansion has hit a wall many times before, which is not commensurate with the name of the first fantasy IP. In 20 15, Kevin Cheng and Rulu starred in "Love in the City of Hua Xu", which got low ratings and became "cannon fodder". Last year, Sky City in Kyushu, starring Ruoyun Zhang and Guan Xiaotong, etc. It continues to make the film and television works of Kyushu IP have a low reputation. Another adapted film, The Story of the Shark Pearl, was released this summer. Although the box office has exceeded 100 million yuan, the audience rating of 4.4 has become the lowest score in the current Kyushu series of film and television works. As for the reasons for the failure of these works, some people concluded that it is difficult to make a film of the complex world in the book, and it is difficult to implement it from words to pictures.

This time, the much-anticipated "Kyushu Sea Pasturing Cloud" was once again tried in the market, which made the audience regain their confidence in Kyushu IP and asked for directions for the future "Kyushu Misty Record". Recently, Kyushu Mist Records also announced its starring lineup, starring Liu Haoran, Larena, Chen Ruoxuan, Zhang Zhijian, Li Guangjie, Summer Xu, Jiang Shuying and Angel. It is also a big IP production, which attracts attention.
