Chapter 228 Which Yan Qing should I choose?
Because the episode count of "The Story of Yan Qing" was too long, after post-editing, Director Xie deleted many minor details that did not affect the main plot, and the final film had 70 episodes. It took more than a month to finish broadcasting.
The first broadcast period of more than a month was enough to attract countless viewers, and even caused a phenomenon of human-to-human transmission. [The Legend of Yan Qing] is definitely one of the few phenomenal dramas that was extremely popular before the broadcast and did not fall behind after the broadcast.
Many internal producers and film critics were not optimistic about "The Legend of Yan Qing" before it was broadcast, thinking that it was just a revenge drama about the heroine's rebirth. The plot was long and the tone was heavy, which made it difficult for the audience to want to follow the drama.
But when "The Biography of Yan Qing" was actually broadcast, they suddenly realized that it was a big mistake to look at the problem with the old perspective.
The plot of "The Legend of Yan Qing" is indeed lengthy, but it has a reason for being lengthy, and the plot is quite clear, revolving around the heroine Yan Qing played by Qin Xi. From the beginning, she was a scholar Yan Qing, to the top scholar Yan Qing, and then to the chief minister Yan Qing. After the court was unlocked, she became a concubine Yan Qing, and finally a general Yan Qing. She even almost became the queen Yan Qing.
Qin Xi used superb acting skills and super infectious performance to interpret Yan Qing at different stages. Each stage has its own unique characteristics, which are both fragmented and unified, making people unconsciously empathize with Yan Qing. Seeing the later Yan Qing and thinking about the previous Yan Qing, there is always a feeling of being in another world, which makes people can't help but look back at the former Yan Qing.
It’s not a big deal if the plot is long, as long as it’s exciting enough, a hundred episodes won’t be too many for the audience.
The tone of "The Story of Yan Qing" is indeed heavy. Because this is a tragic beginning. No matter how hard the heroine Yan Qing tries, she can't save her comrades and relatives who died tragically 16 years ago, nor can she save the high-spirited and powerful self.
But even so, right and wrong must have a result. Even if the ending cannot be reversed, as long as there are still people who miss them, their spirit will live forever. Those who do evil must pay the price. Even if that person has ascended to the supreme position!
Knowing that it is impossible to do it but still doing it is the best summary of Yan Qing's rebirth. The audience actually knows the direction of the plot. This is an impossible task, but Yan Qing has completed it. The most touching thing is not the final result, but the process of Yan Qing's efforts and wisdom for this.
Watching Yan Qing unknowingly erode the emperor's power bit by bit, watching her use her knowledge and insights to reshape the ideals and beliefs for the young prince, watching her bring tens of thousands of soldiers into her possession, and watching the emperor be defeated in the end and even his beliefs being shattered, brought the audience a huge sense of excitement and relief.
It is just like playing a game, defeating various small monsters, and finally upgrading to full-level equipment to defeat the big boss in one fell swoop. It brings the audience a hearty and immersive experience.
I have to say that the screenwriter knows what the audience likes. The skeleton of the plot alone is attractive enough, not to mention the flesh and blood that each actor fills in the characters with their own interpretation, making the plot more fluent, full and fascinating.
Qin Xi proved with her strength that she has the ability to make the audience fall in love with her again and again. The sudden appearance of "The Biography of Yan Qing" instantly overwhelmed the voices on the Internet criticizing Qin Xi personally. Because Qin Xi had already hidden behind Yan Qing.
The audience likes Yan Qing and even started voting for Yan Qing in different periods.
"Choose your favorite Yan Qing..."
Qin Xi vaguely remembered that she had participated in almost all the popular voting on the Internet before. But they were all red and white rose competitions between "Wangshu and Yin Xiaoxiao" and "Zhao Min and Zhou Zhiruo". Now, Qin Xi was the only contestant involved.
This time, Weibo keenly sensed the popularity of "The Biography of Yan Qing" and initiated this vote after planning by professionals. If the previous votes were still small-scale and self-sustaining, this vote can be said to be unprecedented in popularity.
Each vote represents a Weibo account, and you cannot vote for it repeatedly. And it must be an active account, excluding interference from zombie fans.
Under such harsh conditions, even the least popular "Scholar Yan Qing" received more than 5,000 votes.
Representative speech: I like Xue Shiqing the most. Although Xue Shiqing is very poor, he only prepared two sets of clothes, blue and white. But it still can't cover up Xue Shiqing's white moonlight. Xue Shiqing went to that station, and he was a handsome young man who was as pine and cypress, proud of the snow and frost. Here I want to praise Qin Xi's demeanor and makeup. There are too many costume dramas where women dress up as men and wear big eye shadow and big lipstick, for fear that others don't know that she is a woman. But Qin Xi's look here is not feminine at all. I would like to call Qin Xi the "first person who dresses up as a man" in the past ten years!
Compared with "Scholar Yan Qing", "Top Scholar Yan Qing" received much more votes.
Representative Speech 1: If Xue Shiqing is a sword with a scabbard, then Zhuangyuanqing is definitely a sharp blade out of the scabbard, showing its edge. Zhuangyuanqing is wearing a bright red official robe, a palace flower in his hat, and a face like a crown of jade. Riding on a tall horse, with a light smile on his face, full of vigor and vitality, that scene is really unforgettable. I finally understand why so many girls want to sprinkle flowers and perfumed handkerchiefs on Zhuangyuanlang. Such a wonderful man, who can't help but do it?
Representative Speech 2: The above comments are still on the external aspect of Zhuang Yuanqing, which is a bit superficial. But what I love most is Zhuang Yuanqing's eye acting. When Zhuang Yuanqing first met the dog emperor, the unspeakable deep meaning under the nine parts of Confucian admiration was really amazing. Just this one look made the character of Yan Qing more three-dimensional and rich. What high-spirited and beautiful appearance are all Yan Qing's disguise, her protective color, and her means of attracting the emperor's attention...
"First Minister Yan Qing" already had several times the votes of the previous two combined.
The representative said: Shoufu Qing has too many parts. I am used to watching her. I especially love the parts where she makes plans in the court. I never get tired of watching them. I hope Yan Qing can continue to shine in the court and clear up the accumulated malpractices. With her around, why worry about the foreigners coming up and taking over?
Representative Speech 2: The above is too patriotic. [The Story of Yan Qing] is a fictional world, right? I voted for Shoufu Qing, mostly because of the drama between Shoufu Qing and the little prince. Don’t you think it’s very good? The spoiled and willful "problematic prince" who is not loved and trusted by his father meets a scheming teacher. Shoufu Qing teaches by words and deeds, step by step leading the little prince to grow into a young hero with great love, understanding the suffering of the people, and sympathizing with the people's hardships.
"I don't want to hide behind the gentleman anymore. I want to protect him too!"
Who knew I would burst into tears after hearing the little prince say this! It's a pity that you were born before I was born, and I was born when you were old. If the little prince was a few years older, I would have been obsessed with his love story with Yan Qing!
Representative speech 3: The play between the Prime Minister Qing and the dog emperor is really good! Sorry, Mr. Xizan, you acted too well and I was too immersed in the play. I am not scolding you. The relationship between the Prime Minister Qing and the dog emperor seems to be deep, but in fact they are always playing games. Both of them have their own ulterior motives and are drama queens. I love watching this kind of tug-of-war between them. When actors with brains and acting skills play against each other, they can collide with different sparks!
Although "First Minister Yan Qing" is already very popular, the first place will definitely be between "Imperial Concubine Yan Qing" and "General Yan Qing", but there is really no result for the time being, because in reality, they are chasing each other and are evenly matched!
