"Swordsman" is currently selling its copyrights very smoothly in the Southeast Asian and Japanese markets. Qin Tianzhu, Jin Yong, and Meihua Media are all very influential names in the East Asian market. It is natural that "The Swordsman" will sell smoothly in these traditional overseas markets.
In the European and American markets, "Swordsman" is not "Prison Break" after all. It is too difficult for Westerners to appreciate martial arts culture. Even so, with the efforts of Meihua Media's overseas branches, "Swordsman" has sold audio and video copyrights in several mainstream markets in Europe and the United States.
In San Francisco, Jackson and his two roommates were using a newly bought DVD in their dormitory to watch Qin Tianzhu's new drama "The Swordsman." After "Prison Break", director Qin Tianzhu attracted a group of European and American fans who were obsessed with him. I'm fascinated by his youth, his drama, and his coolness.
These three people in Jackson's dormitory are such a group of fans.
Although domestic TV networks in the United States have not purchased "The Swordsman", these fans can still trace the news of Qin Tianzhu's new drama "The Swordsman" from some reports in the American media.
As soon as "The Swordsman" was released in various chain video stores in the United States, they immediately bought it and went home to enjoy it.
"Li, tell me, what's going on with this internal force?" Thomas asked like a curious child.
Among the three, Jim Lee is a Chinese international student. When Thomas and Jackson had questions after watching the show, they immediately asked Jim Lee for advice. These two Western roommates were interested in Chinese martial arts culture. Jim Lee was also very happy and did his best to explain patiently to the two of them.
"Internal force," Jim Lee scratched his head, and finally explained: "You can think of it as a kind of energy in the human body."
"Energy? Does it also refer to a person's strength? The stronger the internal strength, the greater the strength." This is Jackson's conjecture.
Jim Lee thought about it and felt that it shouldn¡¯t be explained this way. "Internal strength should be a kind of energy that is different from strength. Generally, only people with martial arts skills have this kind of energy."
Thomas nodded, feeling that he had understood what he meant, but he asked again: "How to train internal strength?"
Jim Lee couldn¡¯t help but sigh, this foreigner is really serious.
"Thomas, these martial arts things are all imagined by the author, just like the magic in the fantasy movies you Westerners watch. So, you don't have to take it too seriously."
Jackson said: "Li, of course we also know that this is the author's fantasy, but since it has been written, there must be an explanation system to interpret these things in martial arts, right? Otherwise, how can readers understand and convince the author of these fantasies? ?¡±
Jim Li thought for a while, and it seems that China¡¯s martial arts culture really doesn¡¯t have a unified system to interpret all of this, such as how to cultivate internal strength. In martial arts novels, there are people who meditate and practice, some who absorb other people¡¯s internal energy to practice, and some who take pills. There are practitioners who have opened up the Ren and Du meridians to practice, but there is no way to be sure.
"Li, what are the Eight Strange Meridians? Are they also imagined by novelists?"
"That's not true!" Jim Lee explained some Chinese medicine knowledge to the two of them.
After watching "The Swordsman", Jim Lee's mouth went dry while explaining it, and Jackson and Thomas also had a hard time watching it. Fortunately, they can enjoy watching the show from its visuals, music, and martial arts.
These feedbacks from audiences in European and American markets were collected by Meihua Media¡¯s overseas branches and sent back to the headquarters for analysis.
"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is also a martial arts film that Americans can watch, but Chinese people find it boring after watching it. "The Swordsman" was very enjoyable for domestic audiences, but it was difficult for Americans to watch it.
Plum Blossom Media obviously still has work to do on how to promote dramas with strong Chinese culture to the European and American markets.
In China, "Swordsman" has also been broadcast to the last two episodes.
Episode 39, Dongfang Bubai began to gather the forces of the Sun Moon God Sect in Heimu Cliff, preparing to unify the world.
It was evening, and a wisp of sunset touched the sky.
Dongfang Bubai stood quietly on a desolate hillside, holding a long flute, and the melodious flute sound echoed in the mountains for a long time. Endless resentment and loneliness, melancholy and loneliness are all in the song.
I don¡¯t know when, but Linghu Chong had already arrived behind Dongfang Bubai, listening to her in a daze.
"Your flute playing is getting better and better."
Dongfang Bubai turned around and saw that it was Linghu Chong. The expression on his face fluctuated a little, but then returned to normal. She looked disdainful and said coldly: "Since you have chosen to draw a clear line with me, why are you coming back? I am a murderous demon. If you stay with me for a long time, you will become dirty."?Linghu Shaoxia¡¯s reputation in the world! "
In response to Dongfang Bubai's angry words, Linghu Chong could only smile bitterly.
"Dongfang, you'd better give up your delusion of unifying the world. All major sects in the world, including Shaolin, Wudang, Kunlun, Huashan, Huashan, etc., are aware of your plan. All major sects have decided to temporarily form an alliance to jointly fight against Resist the Sun Moon God Cult. Even if you have the power to reach heaven, you cannot be the enemy of the entire decent martial arts world. You can¡¯t succeed, so give up as soon as possible, I don¡¯t want to see you with your head missing!¡±
Dongfang Bubai smiled disdainfully: "Really? A bunch of rabble, but they are very conceited!"
Seeing that Dongfang Bubai was so obsessed, Linghu Chong's pain was palpable. He said with some difficulty: "For your own ambition, Jianghu will cause another bloody storm. Dongfang, if, I mean if, I had If I choose to be with you, will you continue your ambition to dominate the martial arts world?"
Dongfang Bubai was obviously stunned, and then he said angrily, "Linghu Chong, don't act coy with me now. That day, you cut off our love for me at the foot of Huashan Mountain, and we no longer have anything to do with each other."
"True love in the world is all lies. Some are only betrayal and deceit, only hypocrisy, only ungratefulness, and unlucky luck! Only the king's path to hegemony, and only the supreme power in his hand, is eternal!"
After saying that, he left without waiting for Linghu Chong to reply. On the lonely hills, the unbeatable sound of poetry reciting from the East still lingers.
"A flute and a sword travel through the rivers and lakes, a pot of wine filled with eternal love and enmity. Both feet traverse the earthly road"
With the background music "Drunk and Drinking Thousands of Drinks", Dongfang Bubai's disappointment in love in the world and his attachment to Wang Tu's hegemony are fully revealed.
¡¡
The finale of "Swordsman" unfolds in a big showdown between the Sun Moon God Sect and the martial arts sect.
Dongfang Bubai pointed east and west with one move, leading the main force of the martial arts sect to Heimuya, while he led the main force of the demon sect to sweep away the lairs of various famous martial arts sects. Finally, while raiding Shaolin, they were stopped by Ren Woxing, Xiang Wentian, Linghu Chong, and Ren Yingying.
Dongfang Bubai looked at Linghu Chong and Ren Yingying as a pair, his expression unwavering. However, she quickly adjusted her mood. Facing Ren Woxing, she spread her arms and said energetically: "Master Ren, you see, I have developed the divine religion so prosperously. After this battle, the divine religion will unify the world and it will be just around the corner." ,Hahaha!"
After saying this, he said sarcastically: "On the contrary, Leader Ren, you actually helped these so-called martial arts sects to attack our divine religion today. Leader Ren, you are a sinner of the divine religion!"
Ren Woxing wanted to take back his position as leader, and his actions were indeed inconsistent with his own style of conduct. Now that Dongfang Bubai had figured it out, he became angry and immediately attacked, "Star sucker!"
There was a melee between the five of them, and Dongfang Bubai was defeated by one against four, not losing at all.
At the critical moment, Ren Woxing saw that the four of them were losing ground. He took out the trump card in his hand and took Lan Fenghuang over.
"Dad! Ren the leader!"
Ren Yingying and Linghu Chong obviously didn't know that Ren Woxing had this skill, and they didn't agree with his move to hold Lan Fenghuang hostage.
"Dongfang Bubai, let me see if you want your own life, or the life of yours who is fighting for your life!"
This turn of events was obviously beyond Dongfang Bubai's expectations. Although she is no longer a boy, her relationship with Lan Fenghuang is still there, and Lan Fenghuang has always been taken by her side.
When she hesitated, Xiang Wentian next to her immediately seized the opportunity and successfully stabbed Dongfang Bubai, greatly reducing her combat effectiveness.
Lan Fenghuang didn't want Dongfang Bubai to be in danger for himself, "Master, take care of yourself!". After saying this, his neck hit the edge of Ren Woxing's sword, killing himself.
Dongfang Bubai let out a cry of sorrow, his mind was in a state of confusion, and he was injured in many places during the fight. It's just that Dongfang Bubai, under the grief and anger, is still astonishingly lethal, and it gradually becomes a bit dangerous to go on one's own side.
During all this, Linghu Chong stood by the side. He was very hesitant and refused to take action.
Ren Woxing said angrily: "Boy Linghu, why are you still standing there? Dongfang Bubai is a murderous demon who doesn't blink an eye. If you soften your heart now, you will regret it in the future!"
At this time, Ren Yingying was swept away by Dongfang Bubai's true energy. She suffered internal injuries and blood flowed from the corner of her mouth. She glanced at Linghu Chong with resentful eyes.
Linghu Chong didn't hesitate anymore, quickly picked up the sword in his hand and stabbed Dongfang Bubai.
The blade of the sword pierced Dongfang Bubai¡¯s chest, and Dongfang Bubai was fatally injured.
Dongfang Bubai looked at the sword blade on his chest in disbelief, heartbroken and desperate, "LetCome on, you and I have been together for a while, and I am infatuated with you, and you treat me like this? "
"sorry Sorry!"
Linghu Chong really didn't expect that Dongfang Bubai would be unable to avoid his sword. He apologized with a panic on his face, and even wanted to go up and see Dongfang Bubai's injury.
Seeing that Dongfang Bubai was seriously injured, Ren Woxing said excitedly: "Linghu Chong, you did a good job. Let's work harder and send the old Dongfang thief back to the west!"
Dongfang Bubai's face was ashen and defeated. After using his internal strength to force away the crowd, he staggered back a few steps. Covered in blood, she struggled to pick up Lan Phoenix on the ground, feeling that among all the people in the world, she was the only one who truly cared about her. Any grand plans for hegemony, peerless magic, or martial arts leaders are just a handful of dirt in the end. At this thought, I suddenly felt discouraged and lifeless.
She picked up the beauty in her arms and jumped off the cliff.
The incident happened suddenly, and Linghu Chong had no time to react. In the end, he could only stare blankly at the edge of the cliff, muttering to himself, calling Dongfang Bubai's name.
At the end of the series, Linghu Chong and Ren Yingying are on the top of Mount Huashan, playing the piano and flute, and the beautiful and refined melody fills the landscape.
??Looking to the end of the world, the distant mountains are picturesque, and I once accompanied the hero to search for Qionghua. The clouds are rolling, and the sky is full of fireworks. Now that the world is full of people, I look back to the song "Swordsman".
"All the grievances and grievances in the martial arts world, the struggle for supremacy in the martial arts, love and hatred, finally came to a perfect conclusion after more than 20 days of interpretation.
With graphics, music, and martial arts, the new version of "Swordsman" has established its own style for Meihua Media's Jin Yong martial arts drama series and completely built the edifice of the martial arts world. In future Jin Yong dramas, they only need to add plot and actors' performances to this building. ¡ª¡ª"New Weekly" (To be continued.
